“Yeah, but hey, you might be able to wrangle a welcome-back upgrade from her when she does return,” Paired with a forced grin, it’s an attempt to keep the levity up.

Going to close the shutters agains the inevitable daylight, Wessex tries to think of the last time she’d seen Amun and remembers that he’d been missing during the LongNight battle. Had it really been a year and a half? The very thought makes her hand still on the last latch as emotion hits her once again.
