you've got an appetite for destruction, i guess that makes you just like me
Really, Nate should know better, should know to keep his joking to himself at the moment, as he watches tears well up in Sam's eyes, unshed, for the moment. He doesn't quite sigh, knowing it won't help anything, but he rolls his shoulders back, not taking the words back, but not piling them on more. It was kinder than perhaps anything he'd done for the other ascended in a long time.
As Sam looked up, he would see the trio of little dragons, nipping and twirling over each other in a dance far above their heads, though they seemed to freeze in his gaze, waiting for him to look away so they could scatter once again. "I treat a decent amount of people." Then, a low laugh left him, his viewpoint of... lets call it 'The Incident' far warmer than he was sure Sam's was. "I don't need to bite most people who come in."
Though, it felt wrong to leave it like that, when he was trying (he supposed he was going to try again) to be nice. Ish. "Look, I know I know I fucked up with that whole... situation. And... I'm sorry it hurt you."
