They say blood makes you related but
loyalty makes you family
Sighing, Loren gulped the rest of the cider. He toyed with the now empty mug as he stared at Oliver with troubled eyes. "Helpful isn't happy. And while you can be both, you'll have to learn to accept that some people can't or won't be helped." Shrugging, the healer scooped another mugful of cider into his cup.
As he listened to his fellow hybrid, the Launceleyn took sips from his drink. When the other man finished, Loren's lips twitched faintly. "Not too much information. LongNight is...people do things they wouldn't normally do." His cheeks flushed a furious crimson and he coughed a bit awkwardly. "Myself included." Taking a long pull from the mug, he gave Oliver a rueful smile.
However, the healer's brow soon furrowed. "Sounds like they were both messing with you. Why didn't you just leave?" His confusion was evident through the bond. "It's good that you won't repeat the same mistakes." Although he tried to give the other hybrid a reassuring nod, the Launceleyn knew it wasn't that successful.
"You do that." This time, his smile, faint as it was, was a bit more successful. He also let out a huff of laughter at the other man's words. "You also have to bind them by hand." Surprisingly enough, Loren spoke in a wry drawl.
