He was…? Valerian waited for the answer on what he was and his own scrunched up when Indivara found the adjective she wanted. He was pretty sure people didn’t associate him with being sweet, except maybe Talian but he had reason to believe that with the oddly kind things done for him in their friendship. Indivara thinking he was sweet was bordering on being mind-breaking but wasn’t the entire encounter already doing that? He had slept with her, they argued, and now they were hugging and the girl didn’t seem ready to let go. Valerian was more than a little confused right then but he wasn’t sure he should bring it up or even silently question it. Discussing them as a unit and feelings involved had started the entire downward spiral into S’kef levels and Valerian was done with hanging out done there.
Valerian chuckled when Indivara spoke again to add that he was determined but still sweet. That sounded a bit more like the girl that had once been determined herself – to knock him out with sticks. It wasn’t often he had been called determined either though. Perhaps in his music he was determined but most of the time in the Hall he had put minimal effort into classes and that was how he taught them as well. “I’m not often called either. I guess it depends on whom or what’s motivating me.” Valerian had a silver tongue when it was in written-form and he was working on a poem but he certainly wasn’t at a master flirt’s level, like R’nd, where he could speak pretty words that he saw as truth. He wasn’t known for lying either so it was clear that had been Valerian’s attempt at being nice to Indivara though he wasn’t sure if it would be caught or well-received.
Perhaps it had worked! Valerian blinked down at Indivara as she guided them to the bed, his feet following more so they wouldn’t be stepped on or earn a kick to the shin. That’s what Valerian told himself anyway since he was currently baffled over why she wanted him at the bed again and why he was being so obedient. When his fingers flexed over her warm skin, Valerian started to clue in, assuming he was on the right train of thought. They were both naked which meant the sheet Indivara had been wrapped up in vanished somewhere along the way and the girl likely wanted it back. The weyrling knew the brat to be brash and loud mouthed and knew she took to lingering around flight losers but he didn’t know much else about her and didn’t see the issue in her not wanting to be seen. He had no qualms in people seeing him nude but Valerian also knew that wasn’t for everyone. Still, he didn’t offer to grab it or even mention it, again having learned when to keep silent with Indivara. Sometimes it felt like every conversation they had was a battle and he was learning to pick which ones he wanted to deal with.
