LOREN
Loren grinned easily, though it was a bit smug around the edges. Still floating, he tilted his head back a little, basking in the sun and the water (and Eloise’s attention, of course). ”Only one way to find out.” And given that her assumption about which parts of him were currently above the surface, that should be easy enough to interpret.
At her next comment, though something dark and ugly flickered in his eyes. He set it aside, letting the beautiful day, good company, buzz of alcohol in his veins, and his new approach to life banish the shadows. ”I like to think it’s been a bad influence, actually.”
Turning his slightly towards her, he winked lazily. "But I needed that. And I'm starting to enjoy those." Using just a bit of his water magic, he tugged her closer, though not enough such that she couldn't break free.
