Talian was superbly art home in that moment. It was a rare thing. He liked the feeling of having his own space, a place were he could crawl away from everyone and enjoy his own company for a while. He liked having somewhere he could be comfortable and relaxed, away from the judging eyes of others. Katila had disallowed that so far. He barely had time to get to where he slept decently in the Healing Hall before he was removed to the candidates' quarters, which to him felt decidedly prison-like. It was loathsome. Therefore, he always felt like an outsider at Katila. Alone with B'jin in that messy little hut, he actually felt somewhat safe.
"I suppose I did," he replied. Yes, he had made a friend. Now he had two friends! Three, if B'jin didn't count as something else entirely. The young healer discarded his worries for the time being and sighed. He still wasn't comfortable with the idea of having sex with another man, but the curiosity was there, and he was no longer ashamed of it. He managed to smile in return. It came easier than most days. "Actually...I haven't eaten since lunch yesterday. That would be amazing..." he said.
He could hardly believe his good fortune.
