"I figured helping you would count as 'gathering'," V'zire answered cheerfully. Now that R'nd was dressed, he didn't have much reason to keep stumbling over his own words. It was unclear as to why he got so embarrassed every time someone hit on him. Maybe he felt inclined to respond, but knew better than to. As V'zire saw things, he was tied up with someone else. It wasn't likely, however, that he'd be all that much more receptive to flirtations even if he wasn't bound to a different bluerider. V'zire wasn't seeking a physical relationship, he got enough of that in Niskziath's flights. He wanted an emotional bond, one that he kept trying to find in R'ore but never received. Since their relationship was physical, it was the closest he could get to what he wanted.
Do you want me to come with? Niskziath offered, changing her mind a little when she felt the flickering of V'zire's thoughts.
'No, I'm fine. Enjoy sunning yourself, you deserve it.'
If you are sure, then I certainly will. Niskziath relented, and her presence left his mind completely as she minded herself. Her bonded could take care of himself, but she was prone to worrying about him over even the smallest slight. She knew how poorly he took to being flirted with, and was not the sort of dragon to take pleasure at her bonded's expense.
"I figure your chore is horrible enough that you wouldn't mind the help? If there's anything useful nearby I'll pick it up to at least make it look like I did my own chore." He really did feel infinitely better with R'nd having his shirt on, and was even more pleased that the bluerider wasn't hovering over him. He knew R'nd by now, and knew what to expect when it came to the man's flirtations. Of course, even though he knew what was coming, he never knew quite how to respond to it. V'zire figured that before giving R'nd the chance to make some advances on him, he'd steer their conversation in a safe direction - away from him.
"So, what's been going on with you lately? Anyone new in your life? Oh, right, you had a baby, didn't you? Congratulations!" It was far easier to talk about someone else's life than his own, after all.
