You could very well be right about that. However, that one person was entrusted to me by very close friends. I doubt they would approve of how I have conducted myself as of late. Which I tend to correct.

[ Lantaa's cheeks turn redder. Her gaze moves down to the floor as she bashfully tucks herself behind Aymeric more. A fiancée? She can hardly wrap her mind around behind his lady, let alone his fiancée. To that, their "courtship" has been so very short, and she does not have a ring. Not that she would wish him to go and find one. It is more she believes there are steps based on all she has encountered...

Jonathan, however, chuckles.] And as your godfather and physician, I believe it would be in bad faith if I did not at least take a look at your fiancée as well.

[ There is a part of him that still desires the companionship and support he finds from people such as Estinien (in his own way) and Jonathan, but the last thing that he wishes is to be selfish and grasp for more than he is given. ]

Well, I will not pretend that it would be good to see more of you, but I will not take you away from your work. [ He will not rebuff Jonathan should he visit, of course, but he does not wish to be a hindrance either.

As for Alkaid and her being his fiancee, his mind has already begun to think of ways to further solidify their relationship, beginning with obtaining a ring and continuing with a proper courtship. ]

If you wish. And if you require anything at any time during or after, feel free to ask. [ He might top off his drink at the very least, as he feels he must be a good host. ]

Perhaps it is time I am here for you more as a godfather ought to be, and less of a doctor. Besides, it would seem you have a more than capable healer with you now.

[ Jonathan turns his gaze to Lantaa and offers a gentle smile. He sets his glass down and shakes his head to the offer. While he can no longer be intoxicated? He would not deplete his godson of a fine drink. Especially if he should ever have visitors. Instead, he offers his hand for Lantaa to take. ]

If you could be so kind, my dear.

[ Lantaa glances up at Aymeric once more before extending the hand not holding onto his. Jonathan gently takes the hand into his. ]

[ Aymeric would rebuff Jonathan once more, except for the fact that he truly does wish to see more of his godfather, and that he does yearn for the kind of support he might give him. So he says instead: ] If you are certain, the door is always open to you. [ It always has been, but he feels the need to underline that just in case there are any doubts.

And once Jonathan's attention turns towards Alkaid, Aymeric simply sits back and watches, although he makes sure to keep his hand where it is, in case she needs the added reassurance. ]

If I might ask, how have you been spending your days? Offering your expertise as a physician, I am sure, but has anything else been occupying your attention of late?

[ He does not intend to interfere with Jonathan's examination, only make small talk while he works. ]
