"Okay, good... I was hoping you'd agree about that." K'dar sighed with relief. "Not only would I rather keep the whole thing a secret but I don't want to hurt her either you know? She doesn't deserve that, she's such a sweetheart. And... yeah, I suppose I shouldn't just leave Tiber up on his ledge. He does have friends though, so that should be easy enough."
When his sister encouraged him to just own it, Tiberuth gave a soft amused grumble that earned him a glare from K'dar. "People knowing about the occasional male lover is probably fine, but Yfris..." he shook his head. Yfris was definitely not an occasional male lover with how often he went back to the lordling for visits and "studying" with the man. He gave the entire thought a small dismissive wave. "I want people to be able to see that I'm focused on trying to learn from the Weyrleader, not get distracted by silly things that don't matter. The last thing I want is for everyone to think I can't be a leader or that I'll be easy to bully and push around because I like pain."
K'dar scratched at his jaw thoughtfully. "And maybe I don't want to scare any ladies off. I do want to settle down one day and not just be an uncle you know. Probably after I've become Weyrleader though. Maybe Tiber will settle down with a nice gold who's rider is lovely and not mated to someone else." It was a nice storybook idea, but with how he was seeing things go with T'ryn he doubted he'd be able to find something so simple for himself.
