Kalin just grinned back at Amethyst, taking note of the way her tone changed, particularly when she said his name. When her arm bumped into his, he flicked his eyes down in reflex. As he realized that it had been unintentional, he smirked and raised his glass again. He kept his ears on the others as he looked intently into the drink, never one to be caught off guard when he could help it. It seemed that the young Nova was more than capable of going off and becoming a hero in some foolishly brave and gallant act, possibly even returning alive if lineage was any indication; or so it seemed, listening to him speak with Seraphina.<br/><br/>He was about to ask Nero a question, whether he had to interrupt or not, when he was interrupted himself by Arcxsus toppling over backwards. Kalin just looked at him for a moment and blinked. The legendary warrior Arcxsus, falling over while sitting in a chair? It was all he could do to keep from bursting out in loud laughter, and he managed to keep it down to a muffled cough of a laugh behind his hand. When the Terrax had righted himself once more, Kalin was still grinning, but with an honest air about it, unlike the concealing smirk from before. "Are you alright there? We wouldn't want the tale of Arcxsus to end on the floor of an inn, would we?"<br/><br/>As the two females got up to leave, Kalin made certain to watch as they went, only returning his attention to the table when he was sure they had gone from the vicinity. A slight nod was all the answer he gave Arcxsus, none of them had gotten into a fight yet, so things were going better than expected already. With his drink nearly gone, Kalin turned his eyes once more upon the Fay. "I hope it isn't rude of me to ask, but I am rather curious as to what a daughter of a noble house would be doing out here in Dimat... I am of no importance back home, but surely you are missed, no?" There was no hostility or provocation in his tone, but he still held the look of someone who already had an idea to answer his own question.<br/>
