Oh, so he was invited back onto the bed? Oblivious to the implications, he slid back into his previous position. He took another sip from his bottle and listened as Erisi spoke, though his mind was preoccupied. He wasn't aware of the signals he was putting out, but he was quite aware of Erisi's strange behavior. The harper seemed sensitive to something, though Talian couldn't imagine what it was. He saw the cues, though: bright eyes, arching brow, strange facial expressions...something was going on.
He decided not to say anything immediately. Erisi appeared to be one of those surly types who almost always had something negative on his mind. For all Talian knew, Erisi was just being himself.
"Fort? I'm from there as well," he commented as he took another drink. His stomach served him well in times like this; while the wine wasn't exactly fit for quick consumption, he would be able to keep it down, at least within reason. He didn't particularly care for the taste, but the warm feeling in his stomach was quite welcome. "My father is also a healer...he and my mother were stationed at Fort, but they moved me to the hall when I was six turns old."
