[Taking the cup that she's pushed in his direction, he takes it to take a sip of the dark, warm liquid, letting it coat the back of his throat. He sips it slowly as she talks, frowning at the offhand joke there. The last thing he'd ever want to consider is Lumine being "out of the Cryo Archon's hair," and he feels his heart sink a little at the thought. If Her Majesty really thought she was a problem, she would of had a Harbinger take care of it, but as it stands that isn't the case and he hopes it stays that way.
Though she's right. It's probably not good to dwell on it too much, and he's not the type to worry on something he can't really change all that much anyway. They are both still alive and to various degrees of well, so he'll take that as a win for the moment and enjoy this time he's got now.]
Word spreads quickly around Fontaine, so it was inevitable that it would reach my ears. But, you're right. Worrying now doesn't matter, it's the time in front of us that does.
[But was that a lot of information to digest. Lumine's dreams of him, the battle against the whale, Fontaine's fate hanging in the balance...what a wild ride. Who knew his vacation was going to end up like this? And yet he's still lacking answers.
But for now, he'll follow Lumine's advice and not think too much on it. He'd much rather spend his energy on her instead of past events.]
In that case, I think the best course of action would be to do something to keep our minds off of it. After we finish our snacks here, mind taking a walk with me? There's somewhere I'd like to go, as sort of a...final farewell, before I leave Fontaine.
