Roland shrugged. He had no problem with them knowing he'd said that; Bert knew to expect that kind of thing, and Kaine was going to have to get used to it if she wasn't already. If he minded it being in the open, he wouldn't have said it.

"If they haven't fucked," he opined after a moment, "they probably should. It would do wonders for clearing the air." Not to mention that, if he was honest, he thought Bert could really use the release. Kaine he cared about less, but Bert needed something to go on. And, after everything, Roland suspected it wasn't something he could provide. Not right now.
