But the loneliness never left me
I always took it with me
The abrupt change in topic is honestly somewhat jarring. Talking about Ray is difficult, yes, but part of you had taken some, well, relief in the act. How long had it been since the last time you mentioned his name? Felt comfortable enough to reflect on those long ago moments without immediately changing the subject, searching for something else, anything else, to cling to?
Oh well. It's your fault, really, for thinking anyone would want to sit through your damn sob story. You should know better by now.
"'s'okay, really-" you begin to protest, but before you can Sam has launched into a new topic entirely. Jarring, again, but you let it go, drawing away from him physically and emotionally and leaning forward to prod at the embers with a long stick. Something about his ex, the lover of the Arm-biter. "Sounds like a catch." Snorting disparagingly, you take another, smaller sip of rum. Not really sure why you should know, but okay. "Is anyone in your life not a total dick?"
