He'd slipped, and in front of the clown, too. Embarassing. He let one of his self-depreciating moods get to him when he should be concentrating on surviving. He cursed himself.
He looked away when Initiate mentioned the Church. Psii wanted nothing to do with it. If what Sam and Initiate were describing was family, then he already had one, Signless's little circle back home. He missed Disciple and Dolorosa with the pain of one separated from their family, even if he didn't know that was what it was. He thought of Dolorosa mending their clothes between daywalker attacks. He thought of Disciple moving unseen through the brush and taking down beasts many times her size.
Luckily, Sam was all starlight and moonbeams to distract Psii from being down.
"Tho bathically what you're thaying ith, you bribe me with thweetth, into human romanthe, which involveth pailing, which ith thomething you don't do with family. Got it, human Sam," he flashed a grin right back, significantly more pointy, but no less amused. "Remind me not to be athimilated into your human family, tho that the pothibility of of uth doing the nathty in the human romanthe quadrant will be open. Got any more of thothe marshmallowth? I want to try making my own."
Psii's brazenness was born of not expecting anyone to actually flirt with him seriously. He cracked worse jokes with Signless, and they had never pailed.
