"I know it's better as a written pun, but we must all work with what we have." S'far was mostly glad that T'ryn was possibly getting used to the puns, but not to the point that they didn't stop irking him at least ever so slightly. Maybe one day he'd transcend and fully accept his own role as a pun slinging father, and when that happened S'far hoped that the examples he provided were helpful. The mention of caution for the rest of the food made sense enough to him, he certainly had sent a warning to Sironar to not eat or use any sort of soap substance until he had time to go visit and check things. "I still have a couple of rats that are still alive that can be used as taste testers if you want. They're sequestered in a bucket for now in my office. There's a green flitter keeping an eye on them for me I think."
The lordling's contribution to the conversation earned him a look from the weyrleader, his eyebrow raised inquisitively. "Really. And what do you know about the Lord of High Reaches and his brothers then? Actually, I'll take a written synopsis, do send that in a timely manner." S'far turned his attention back to T'ryn as he considered. "I don't think it was the promotion itself. If it was the promotion then they were upset because it was you, and not because it wasn't them if that makes sense. As to you upsetting anyone..." his voice trailed off and he frowned for a moment. "T'ryn, I just want to state that I do not care about your personal relationships so long as they do not interfere with your work or the Weyr. That said... do any of your other sexual partners have jealous lovers or fanciers? Any ex partners who might be upset you've moved on?"
He already knew Cazan had some idea about her mate's activities or he wouldn't have said anything at all. In fact she didn't seem surprised so much as concerned about the possibility. S'far turned his focus back on his notes as he politely didn't pay too much attention to Cazan getting up to console her mate as he relayed the news about B'jin. He doubted either of them cared, but it just seemed like a personal moment and he wanted to intrude as little as possible.
This was getting out of hand though and he started to draft up a letter to the leaders of the other Weyrs, both to inform them of the current events as well as to potentially provide a warning, In Ista's case he also sent a request for updates on R'nd's other children. And then there was the matter of Lord Igen's nephew. "Yfris, do you think you would be up for entertaining and distracting a Lord? Or are you distressed enough that you would only upset Habraxel?"
