To get Riona off that topic—because seriously, she never let things go—Florian decided to distract her with something that would absolutely grab her attention. His new fangs.
"Wh—! Whoa. Uh, wow. What…? I, uh…" Riona stammered, utterly at a loss for words. Her hands flailed in the air as if trying to catch the thoughts racing through her mind.
Florian raised an eyebrow, amused. It had been way too long since he'd seen his sister act like a malfunctioning robot.
Yeah, it felt like forever. Then again, being stuck in endless darkness tends to do that—making every second stretch into eternity.
For a while, he had believed he'd never break free.
With a soft chuckle, he said, "It's still new. I'm figuring out how to retract them. Haven't quite mastered it yet."
