The house has been much quieter since Lucan left, and a lot emptier too. The loft is still a mess of hay and blankets that looks more like a barn than a house, and the table and chairs are still in odd places in the large main room, but it's all so much more stark and bare.

He looks up and grins. "Where else? Wanna try some?" He fills a cup and offers it to her. "If I'd known you were coming I would have...I don't know, changed my shirt of something."

She snorts and takes the cup. "Wouldn't'a helped. Just 's well y'didn't bother."

"Yeah, but at least I could have held it over your head that I'd gone to the trouble of it." He leans on the fence.

"Glad y'didn't, then," as she drinks, looks up and makes a face at him, drinks again.

He tilts his head and watches her. "So I suppose you saw the house then, eh?"

"Bit of it. Left my things inside."

He smiles at that. "Well, I've been sleeping in the loft, but we can set the cot in the corner of the main room if you'd prefer."

She lifts an eyebrow and finishes the cup. "Who says we're sleeping together?"

He takes a pause and thinks about that, then says, "I didn't say I had to sleep downstairs with you. However, if you're sleeping up in the loft, you're sleeping with me."

He grins at her and gives her a look. "You're trying to mess with me, aren't you?"

"Give it another week or two, it'll be fine." He crosses his arms. "Oh, so y' think my name's funny then, hm?"
