Yfris narrowed his eyes at her encouragement to meet the others. She would be the one that would get off on his torment. Cazan was the one that punched him after all. He already knew he wouldn’t like two of them as he had met them in the past and the third was younger and likely as pure as snow which meant also dull. His pouting was interrupted by Cazan’s dramatic pause and he quirked a brow at her, a slight smirk appearing as she sipped her tea. That was yet another reason why they actually were rather compatible and would be a fearsome pair.
He had taken into consideration how desperate her parents would be to wed her off, seeing her Impression as a boon and an embarrassment since she hadn’t wed beforehand. They would also be scandalized by her being pregnant and not wed so they would jump at anything Yfris’ family wanted in trade. But he hadn’t expected Cazan to look into it and start planning things as well. He said he would take care of it… and that was more than enough reason for her to do it herself. His reputation at work. He really should just let it do all the talking and sit back.
“I know. I checked that angle as well. I even spoke with Mulrissa and A’dris since I assumed you would move in with T’ryn and his dragon’s mate issue meant he couldn’t come here.” He ran his hands through his already somewhat dishevelled hair, adding to his laze about lordling image. “Details are still being worked out but I could be used as an ambassador for Misty Hold and negotiate trades between it and the Weyr. My father would likely want extra protection or more say on issues and he could provide the Weyr with more fish. I could also assist the leaders in dealing with other lords and play diplomat. Can you imagine that? Me in charge of such important things? I’d have to be sober for it!” There were worse things but that was still a pretty dreadful thought. He’d possibly also have to help with other paperwork or maybe even get his hands dirty sometimes but he was already bored enough by the thought that he spared Cazan.
“But, Cazzy, I’m giving you a chance to get out of being tied to me. You could be happy with T’ryn without any extra complications.” She already had everything she could want and didn’t need him third wheeling on her life. He didn’t mind crashing in unexpectedly at times so she wouldn’t fully be rid of him.
