"The very same." Loren's relief that Weaver didn't have problems with the bookmaker was palpable. Smiling, the healer rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. "He is a decent guy. Has his problems like the rest of us, but more decent than me." His tone was wry, and maybe a little guilty.
Sighing, he pinched the bridge of his nose. "Even if I wanted that, which, honestly, I have no idea, it's never going to work." Shrugging, he lowered his hand. "He has a life in the Hollowed Ground and...some day I'll want kids." As he spoke, his fingers drummed a nervous beat against his thigh.
When she agreed to go on future excursions with him, he smiled faintly. Tucking the book under one arm, he watched her with the amulet. However, he said nothing. Between the book and the map, he had more reminders than he'd thought he would. "Looking forward to it."
Snorting he pressed his lips together. "How much time you got?" Waving a hand vaguely in the air, he took a deep breath. "Sunjata lives next to Remi and Ronin. They're from my old world. I pursued Remi for a while. Fooled around a bit with him. But...our society wasn't open to that sort of relationship." His expression and tone grew sad. "Still, I made him promises. Then we came here and I...disappeared for a while. Couldn't cope with everything, and it drove me mad, and I ran away from it all."
Pausing, he unclenched his hand from the fist it had formed. "Which meant I broke those promises. Remi and Ronin ended up getting married. Then I came back and just fucked everything up further. So, yeah, they're not the biggest fans of mine. And I don't blame them in the slightest."
