"Eh, it's hard t'keep straight when you don't have any reason." That, and your birthday had been sometime this season, so you're still getting the years somewhat mixed up. Though his continued insistence that you stop referring to yourself as an (accurately) old man raises some amusement in you; your eyebrows waggle playfully in response. "What's wrong with callin' myself old, eh? We're all gonna be old farts one day- even you. Might as well embrace it." You tilt your head back and turn to look at him, the almost-smile back around your eyes.
Friends with the new governor, eh? That can be useful, and the businessman in you tucks that information away for future reference. As to what you think of the job he's doing? You shrug. "Can't say much at this point. But I ain't met him proper yet, myself- what's he like?" You're genuinely curious, because this will be important to your life and livelihood. Torchline works in particular ways, and if Remi's the sort to come and attempt to shake all that up, he's not going to have a good time.
"Evenin's're nice," you agree with Sam, picturing the quiet sunsets, the people headed home to families and loved ones. "Plen'y a' quiet nooks for people watchin'. An' I wouldn' mind showin' ya a couple'a them, as long as y'promise to write only good things about me in that book."
