It was nice to hear Loren make a joke, even self-deprecating as it was; Sam smiled and looked down at the Luxere, glad that the Launceleyn allowed one supportive presence by his side seemingly at all times. Hopefully, she would save him from making any poor decisions in the depths of his sorrow.

As for himself...turning down a side street (knowing it was quicker to reach his house through it) Sam thought for a moment, unsure of how much to reveal. Eventually deciding that Loren didn't seem to care much about anything at the moment, he told the truth. "Well, I make books for my shop, though a lot of the time...I'm busy working with my other Ascended family to complete tasks for The Voice."
