Gangleri considered the advice for a moment. On the one hand, considering her father, he didn't think Meryem would be called back to the Hall any time soon. If they ended her assignment at the Weyr it would likely just be to send her to a small hold or out on a distant circuit. Though they could always realize it would be much more of a punishment to keep her close and call her back anyway. Anything was possible though, he mused. Either way he didn't think Meryem would talk about their little encounter to anyone directly. "I'll have to think this one over a bit more. Thank you."
And by think it over he meant casually mull over the possibilities until he drank enough he no longer cared, then just continue his wanderings until the next time they brought him towards the Weyr. Then he'd have to really think about it. But at least by then he'll have hopefully given it all time to stew a bit so he would be in a better position to make a decision. At the mention of the baked treat he gasped, playfully teasing as he said, "Why you sly temptress. You know I have a hard enough time resisting your wiles and now you're adding cinnamon buns? How could I resist? Of course I would be delighted to join you."
He smiled, leaning back and relaxing in his chair as he watched her tend to the rest of the bar and worked on finishing his ale. Once they had closed up and the other customers had gone he decided to make himself useful, helping to pick up chairs, wipe down tables, and anything else that would help speed things along to some delicious dessert.
