Glad that the attractive candidate hadn't been offended by his comment, Jereken smiled back, but really didn't know how to reply to her comment about his own eyes. Blushing slightly under his tan, he was glad when she turned away to respond to someone else, although once her attention was elsewhere he skimmed a quick look over the rest of her body.
The room was filling up quickly, and Jereken decided to get a drink before the supply of glasses ran low. Nodding to Talian, he followed him over to the table set up by the wall and chose a glass of wine. He didn't want to follow Talian around for the evening, although the young man seemed nice, and was obviously intelligent - a Master Healer, so young - he'd come in with Erisi and Jereken was still a little nervous around the harper.
Sipping the wine, he leant against the wall, seeing how the group of people was still growing and conversations starting and breaking up. Deciding to be an observer for a while, he listened in to as many different conversations as possible, waiting to see if there was anything interesting and worth joining.
