"That's more boring than what I had in mind, but I might borrow it." You heard nothing if he borrows it, this conversation never happened if he borrows it, you got that Korrin. "Unless I was with you the whole time, you and your lady feeding me candied whatevers, you make that bit up, you know fancy foods better than me."
Yngvi knows food. Doesn't really care about it unless it gets to go in his mouth or he has to care for a job so there's that. Unless it's Orzammar stuff because he'll reject that on principle.
Making a face, he leans back against her since he's wrapped in furs so he's a warm short lump, and she's more than strong enough to deal with him being too tired to properly stand up right now. "You can rise up if you do it right. Someone gets named a paragon then all their household is suddenly raised up but how often do paragons happen? And look what they name? Paragon the off-her-tits? Easier way is noble-hunting. Because Orzammar is hurting for babies, and people want better for themselves, and caste follows parentage. So casteless girls try to find a noble patron, get a child with them and hope it'll be a boy. If it's a boy? Gets his caste, she gets raised up, everyone else in her household would go with so imagine all the shady lot that'd go too but say a woman higher up had a boy to someone lower. People get tossed out, lose their caste. Met folk on the surface who got out because it was starve, abandon the child to die, or go to the Deep Roads. That type of shit. But people care, I don't know, s'pose your family is family, I mean if something happened to Gunnar I'd give a rat's arse."
How many times did one of them get into trouble for the other, get a sound thrashing for it, or sneak half their measly dinner to the other when one was supposed to miss it for something they did wrong?
After a while when he realises he's lost in his own head, he gives himself a shake, tipping himself back so he can peer up at her even when his head swims. "Asher kept going home y'know. Like all that time. Didn't you and Mal go to the Holdings sometimes? He got kicked out but he still went back to that house that he hated for other people he cared about who didn't care 'bout him much, well all but Aura. S'not like it's rational."
