With surprising gentleness, she placed a hand on Kallist’s forearm. “It was kind of you to take him under your wing the way you did. I don’t think a lot of people would have.”

Kallist shrugged once more.

“You two weren’t …?” She let the question dangle.

“Lovers?” Kallist laughed. “Uh, no. We were friends, partners, maybe even brothers. Nothing more.”

“Were?” she asked with a raised eyebrow.

At first, I couldn’t help but wily grin when I read this part… Hey Lili, it’s one of the fangirling-things in bad taste to RPS openly in front of himself.
