C’dhin continued to study Misharan, not fully believing the man when he said he was fine with someone finding him annoying. At least he seemed to believe not everyone felt that way and C’dhin smiled when he was thanked for only speaking the truth. “I dunno, that guy doesn’t sound like someone I’d want to fuck,” of course he knew Misharan wasn’t being literal with the phrase but C’dhin liked seeing the Candidate smile and a little joking around to help lighten the mood once more wouldn’t hurt.
“Anyway, you’re gonna find people that are like that and it’s gonna suck when you realise they were only around for the sex or the baking, you know, things you can provide them for nothing really in exchange, but they’re not worth giving too much thought to after that moment of discovery.” He had found that over the years there would always be people looking to use him or get free food out of him or only see him as an easy piece of ass thanks to Coroth’s hide, but he let it go a lot easier than he once did.
“You learn to categorize people as actual friends that want to be around you or acquaintances that you might have something in common with but you don’t need to invest more of yourself into those moments.” Was that harsh? Maybe a little and C’dhin frowned to himself as he put another sheet of cookies in the oven. He normally wasn’t a pessimistic sort of guy but reality could be harsh and he had adapted in order to keep his optimism alive as well as he could.
Turning back to the other sheet, C’dhin tapped a cookie with a finger, finding it was still a bit on the hot side to fully enjoy. Still, he removed it and set it on the counter in front of Misharan, knowing the man’s willpower would cave soon anyway. “Still a tad too warm, so don’t burn your mouth,” C’dhin ordered as he smiled again and went back to removing the rest from the sheet so he could refill it with new scoops of dough.
