Chuckling, Loren shook his head at Jigano's misunderstanding. "No. Worse. Much worse." As Astra bleated a protest, the healer sent an apologetic look her way. Glancing back at the bard, the Launceleyn's eyes crinkled with amusement. "Korbin wanted her for meat." There was a wry tone to his voice.
Snorting, he refilled his wine glass. "Nah, couldn't be that long. I'm sure I've done something dumb this season." Clearly self-deprecating, he let out a huff of laughter at the white-haired man's antics. "Twenty-two. Soon to be twenty-three. Not that I expect an old timer like you to remember what it's like to be in your prime." This time, Loren was obvious ribbing Jigano, though in a lighthearted way.
Grinning, the healer shrugged. "Actually, it's more a function of everyone else on the expedition being far more untrustworthy than I, but I appreciate the vote of confidence." He toasted the bard, sending along a pulse of gratitude as the Launceleyn did.
