Subject: This is not like me at all...

((Don’t worry!)

M’att flushed at Synthis’s words – he knew the word was rape, and now she knew he was too much of a coward to ask her straight out. But her next series of gestures – interrupted by a speech from her dragon that Ashertith frantically relayed to him – made his fists clench in his lap. He was at a loss. So Synthis’s father had raped her. I’ll kill him. I’ll kill him…

M’att, you forget yourself.
Ashertith hauled him back to reality. You do not mean that. The M’att I chose would not be capable of such a thing. If you pull a S’peer on me I will be forced to take action.

That made the brownrider swallow his fury. How could he think about violence now, with Synthis near him – telling him what had plagued her for so long? It was thoughtless and selfish. “Synthis…shards, Synthis I’m sorry…” He reached for one of her hands, taking it into both of his own, rougher ones.

How could he have been so stupid? How could he have not seen what was wrong with her? He’d always been dense when it came to seeing how other people felt – and when it came to talking about it. It was his biggest failing. And now he’d asked Synthis a question that should never have to be asked…

((Really? How?))
