The corner of J’ver’s mouth twitched in irritation as his harsh beatings were so casually brought up but he continued smiling patiently as the man worked through whatever dilemmas he had created in his head with his dragon. M’ris was partially right though. Sometimes S’kef hit a bit too hard and maybe that helped encourage him to find a bronzerider to watch over him but it really did come down to popular opinion and finding the best new candidate to keep him safe and warm at night and not at the bottom of the barrel with the other greenriders.
“I only risk my neck when I know something is a sure thing. Putting bronzeriders back in power is exactly that. Holders respect bronze and tradition wouldn’t have it any other way. I already know you’ve been leading the rebellious tone in the air, M’ris. Why not actually act instead of chat in the corner like a bunch of kitchen women?” J’ver crossed one leg over the other and leaned his elbow on his knee, studying the man. He knew more about the bronzerider than M’ris would likely appreciate, like his secret appetite for men. He’d play that card if he needed to but it seemed like M’ris would be easily won over without it.
“It won’t cost much either. Just loyalty. I will get you a seat of power and you will keep me out of the clutches of lowlife riders and perhaps slightly above our laws as I am now.”
