"What do you mean by that? I know a great deal about dragons; what I don't know is about you as an individual."<br/><br/>Looking forward as he listened to her and spoke, it had seemed as though he were still quite aware of what she was saying irrespective of the direction of his head.<br/><br/>"Change things...between us? What are you saying? That sounds awfully personal for someone I was assigned to work with."<br/><br/>Pausing once more, he then exhaled, "If you're asking though if it means you're being reassigned, it doesn't...it just increases the incredible danger that we're already in, which is why I wish that you would have said something to me in the first place instead of hiding that all this time."<br/><br/>Regardless of any of this, he would have been acting with understanding toward her as long as she had remained completely honest. Turning his head up once more, he shook it. "You know, I'm surprised that you weren't consoled by a telepath before showing up here. They usually like to do that in order to make sure that everything goes well, but I personally find it too probing."<br/><br/>The way he had said that suggested that he would have, indeed, been understanding in the way that she had wanted. Maybe she could open up to him after all.
