when you bury your pain
Perhaps he's playing right into his doctor's hands (he absolutely is, but he no longer cares) but Finn is all too happy to explain about his extra work now that he isn't so focused on tracking down demigods. He finishes his bite of scone and sips at his tea, before settling back in his seat and explaining. "I've been looking into the number of demigods who have appeared over the past few years - since the barrier went down. I want to compare it to when the Voice and the Old Gods were at war."
He thinks it's a simple enough conclusion to draw; if more demigods had appeared back then as well, it's a safe assumption to think that their deities may be gearing up for another war. Another sip of tea and a gentle shake of his head gives Finn's response to the Fixer's second question, and although the Spyglass averts his eyes, he's genuine in his reply. "None," he says softly. "I have been more focused on myself and my work than any of the people I met outside of StormBreak. It has been... nice."
