Nodding along initially, Kagan's face was suddenly hesitant when the elf mentioned checking 'them', presuming she meant his injuries. "Well, flattered as I am that you want to see me naked, I'm afraid that's just not gonna happen." Whatever bluster the orc had spoken with, however, quickly disappeared as he tried to lay back against the wall again and had to bite his lip to keep from yelping in pain.<br/><br/>"Having said that," he added in a shaky tone, "maybe it's fine to be sure I'm not infected or something. But if you try anything I'm telling Setrina." Kagan had meant that as a joke, but regretted it all but immediately because he doubted #74 would take it that way. She could be frighteningly literal at times. He had originally decided it annoyed him, these days he found it charming - occasionally.
