Orgalian gave a little secretive smirk behind his mug as Qori pointed out his failings. Sure, most Holds would likely burn him at the stake after he made his way through a vast portion of them, but he would be an amazing fit at Igen Hold--something he knew from personal experience. If a dragon wasn't meant for him, he supposed he could always fall back on being a pliable sex toy for the Lord Holder. As fun as that was, he oddly did still kind of want to keep trying for a life mate first.
"I'm not at all worried about Casa's honour and neither is she. She doesn't seem to care what people say about her and sometimes I think she actively encourages it." He didn't mind that particular sister and they got along well in regards to their loose morals, but he didn't really spend much time with her outside of parties. "Wynera, however... she's too sweet and hates violence and blood, so I'm not sure she would do anything. Maybe scowl at the bully and then not tell anyone because..." Orgailian paused to give a dramatic sigh because his friend was right. "She wouldn't want us to fight for her. That's your one freebie of me admitting you're right. Don't expect more."
The last marshmallow was sucked up with a swig of hot chocolate to chase it down. The answer to Qori's next question wasn't hard, but Orgailian still hesitated, trying to figure out the exact number of days left in his torture. It already felt like weeks, even months, had passed so it was too hard to count and instead he went with the easiest reply. "The day before the Touching. Assuming I don't die from being overworked first. The odds are currently fifty-fifty so I wouldn't place any bets yet."
