A small, but undeniably fond, smile crept across S'cer's face when A'liran proclaimed them to be similar. The former Farmcrafter was rarely ever fond of anyone, but he felt some kind of rapport with A'liran, and it was enough that he was pleased by the comparison. There was no doubt in his mind that A'liran was right--he was screwed in all senses of the word--but at least he had a friend (S'cer suspected mentor was too formal for A'liran) to guide him through the worst of it.
Quelseth continued to eye A'liran, confused by her own wary unease and S'cer's own easy camaraderie with this greenrider that seemed to roll off of him in waves. He felt happy, and if he was happy then shouldn't she be happy as well? But it wasn't that easy... Perhaps this A'liran wasn't one of them, but that didn't mean that her trust would come all at once. Her nose twitched, and she sneezed--a high-pitched, mew of a thing--and returned to pestering Edik.
S'cer laughed, but it was slightly forced; he was grateful to have found Quelseth, but that could never justify what the Katilans had done to him. It was something he was still struggling to come to terms with, and wondered if he ever would. "It was good to see you, you too. You're annoying, but I reckon you're alright." It was an obvious deflection away from the issue at hand, S'cer's grin obviously put-on. "So don't be a stranger--I might need a manly shoulder to cry on in the future, and you're the only one I've got." He waggled his eyebrows and licked his lips, teasing, before smirking. "Now if you'll excuse me, if I don't get some sleep now I might not have another chance before the next feeding time."
