B'jin laughed cheerfully as Talian tried to recover himself, the older man choosing to let the previous subject and all the negative emotions it brought about die and fade away in favour of teasing Talian about a subject he found far more interesting and much more amusing. Talking about Nemall left a sour taste in his mouth that he would rather not bring back. Besides, there were times for serious talks, and times for hilarity. Hilarity was now.
"I'm sure it was," B'jin teased, amused, and actually took a sip of his Klah as he smirked around the lip of his mug, eyes sparkling cheerfully. Putting the mug down, B'jin rested his elbows on the table, and layered his hands, his chin resting on top of them and his smirk wide, before Erisi's name was spoken. That caused B'jin to start, and in so doing, his elbows slipped off the table, and his chin as a result clacked solidly against the edge of the table as he tried to capture himself and failed miserably. Shoving himself into a sitting position once more, B'jin rubbed his jaw while his eyes watered from the shock of the sudden sharp pain and he tasted the metallic tang of blood. He'd bitten his lip.
"Erisi?!" he yelped, eyes wide as he stared at Talian, looking far less amused now and much more shell shocked. "Erisi?!" The man repeated, voice totally lost and confused. Really?! Erisi?! B'jin gave himself a solid shake, and ran his tongue around the inside of his mouth, too shocked to say anything further as he checked to make sure none of his teeth were at risk of falling out. He was rather fond of his teeth.
