"A joke?" Cormac let out a resigned laugh, "Since when are you the joking type, Alaric?"

The question caught Alaric off-guard. 'That's true. I'm not usually one to joke around.'

"I get it now - you're smitten," Cormac said with a smirk. "Love changes people, I understand."

"I'll leave you with Caspian here at the hospital. I need to make a trip back to the villa."
