Satisfied that his friend was all right, Talian moved meekly back to his chair. "You could keep that cool, if you can. A rag damp with cold water," he instructed with habitual rigidness. He was somewhat encouraged by the little hints of a smile B'jin was offering him, but that didn't make the conversation any more pleasant. The healer found himself tempted to prolong the discussion of B'jin hurt lip, purely to keep the topic of Erisi at bay.
When it become obvious that it wasn't, Talian gave in. I'shan? Obviously another dragonrider, Talian assumed a friend of B'jin's and perhaps a searchrider. They did appear to gossip about their prisoners quite often. He frowned again. "I see. Well...Erisi is worth talking about, that much is certain." Erisi left a trail of drama wherever he went. It was downright terrifying.
Talian sighed and rested his forehead in his hands. "I was drunk," he admitted grudgingly, though he'd already mentioned that fact once. It merited repeating. "And I don't know. He insisted I'd been flirting with him all evening." He didn't bother to explain how he thought he was just making a friend. He wasn't willing to talk about making friends with B'jin, at least not yet. The pessimistic healer couldn't imagine things actually going well for an extended period of time.
"And well, after he kissed me..." he said. Unable to think of an eloquent way to say it, he just spit it out. "Well, I kissed him back. And it...wasn't so terrible. But he wanted more, and I...got cold feet?"
Was that the polite way to say 'freaked out'?
