Ryvian was used to being gazed upon through confusion either due to the other person trying to figure out which twin he was or because someone didn’t remember dragging him to bed after so many cups of alcohol had made it a wonderful idea. He was used to it and it didn’t bother him, but it wasn’t the best way to wake up when it was on a friend’s face. Nothing was said, in part because Indivara had eventually figured it out to some degree but also because Ryvian had convinced himself she was confused because she was tired and was recovering from being sick. He probably didn’t quite look himself either so that could have been another factor.
“We did,” Ryvian finally replied, sticking to the topic at hand. He wanted to whine about getting up or tell Indivara to go on and feed the kid while he stayed in bed but he was pretty sure he promised he’d go bathe while she looked after her spawn. Indivara didn’t seem to be much of a fan for his current mood either so it was time to smile and not worry her about how he was doing. “I have a hot bath waiting for me to soak in, I believe.” There would also be a lot of scrubbing away nearly four days worth of grime but that didn’t sound nearly as relaxing and enticing as soaking in the water.
“Do you want me to walk with you to where Varlea is before finding that bath?” He wouldn’t offer to walk her since that sounded like he believed Indivara couldn’t take care of herself. It was all in the wording. Too bad he had to go and ruin his careful phrasing by teasing Indivara a little. “You can yell at me some more while we walk, especially since I’m about to point out how pretty that dress is and you should wear it more often.” He may have been pretty out of it earlier but his eyes still worked and Ryvian had caught sight of his tomboy friend looking absolutely adorable in a dress. No doubt it was Kerrin original and while their newly Impressed friend was talented, he also deserved to be teased endlessly for having such a knack at women’s clothing. On the other hand, Kerrin deserved the praise as well since dresses were easier to hike up out of the way in the heat of the moment.
Not that Indivara was ever going to give him such a chance again and Ryvian knew it.
