Smiling faintly at Weaver's assessment, Loren nodded. "Thanks." Then he gave her an awkward look. "And you? How are you doing? Generally. Or specifically, I guess..." Voice trailing off, he rubbed his palm against his thigh.
Hesitating, he shifted his weight awkwardly from side to side. "I know." It came out in an almost exasperated tone. Shrugging, he ran a hand through his hair. "It's just...it's barely the past."
Meeting her gaze squarely, he bit his lip. "The stuff with my family? Lasted until two years ago, when I came to Caido. Then I lost my mind for a year. The rest of it?" He spread his arms a bit helplessly. "It all happened over the past year." It wasn't an excuse or an explanation even, just the truth.
