LOL, I know, right? XD<br/><br/>And oh, I never said that he wouldn't like being bonded with Ishara; they<em>are</em>old "friends," after all. ;) :P Depending on how our writing styles mesh, of course (you never know until you play together, after all! ), if Ishara brought it up to Galvren I can't imagine him being opposed to the idea, "perks" or no perks....of course, said "perks" would definitely be....well, a "perk." XD And just thinking about the possible drama....I mean, Galvren's relationship with Theraeve would have to change significantly, since it would be pretty difficult for Galvren to keep his "friendship" with The Red secret if Ishara can tell where he is and what he's feeling at all times. Ooooooh, drama! Gotta love it! XD<br/><br/>But - on a slightly serious note - if she got him drunk or tricked him into being Bonded, then that might well damage their friendship...after all, friendship is built on trust, and after a Mind Rape like that, how could he trust her again? It's the whole "I would have said yes if you asked, but you felt the need to trick me into doing it" sorta thing. There would be a decent level of feeling betrayed and taken advantage of and all that jazz, haha. It's a good thing that Ishara would never even consider tricking, coercing or forcing her friend into it....right? ;) :P :P
