you were in the fallout and you lost some friends //
It becomes quite clear that Isla hasn’t mentioned him to Remi yet, and that just makes this whole exchange of where he’s staying all that much more awkward. In fairness, though, they hadn’t been anything until just recently — A few nights ago perhaps? He’d only taken her on one date at the time, and now with another planned and the dorkiest confession between them, what did that make them?
Together, he supposes, even if the whole idea of this being how Remi found out made him feel off balance within his bones. So his gaze remains straight ahead on the path they both know well enough, back to the house with the familiar green door. “With her.” He corrects easily, before he’s reaching up to scratch at the stubble on his jaw. His gaze drifts back to Remi when Safrin comes up, a low hum of agreement leaving his throat.
“Yeah… Though I suppose it does make it a fraction easier than having to deal with opposing sides. At least the Old Gods are all, well, Old Gods.” A brow rises as he considers it. Eventually, his nose wrinkles with distaste and he offers a heavy sigh. “But y’know what? In the spirit of it, fuck Safrin.” His chin tilts up as if he might be able to glare through the clouds to the stars themselves.
