Firestone Hot Springs Is it getting any better

The story wasn't at all as Charon had expected. "Oh," he said, trying to hide his disappointment but failing miserably. He'd hoped that getting her to tell a story would make her seem more like the old, fun Osprey. He couldn't believe that she would still choose Dante over him, not realising the bigger picture much at all. If Osprey were to ask him to move it'd be way different, after all.

Charon looked contemplative then, as though he was trying to find something to say to fill the silence that fell between them then; he didn't really have a bigger answer than 'oh', nor could he think of any questions to ask. And playing a game was the last thing on his mind in that moment.
