"if you can see them all, you're not close enough, pretty tailor." makhi hummed calmly, though the little smile on his lips sounded in that hum & his words. he wasn't often cheeky, but when he did, he fully embraced it & rode that wave until the end. he was getting used to the way of conversation in his time, slowly, although he felt like he'd never be a proper part of it regardless. simply due to his upbringing, but maybe one day he'd be a worthy verbal opponent for oberyn.
sometimes he worried if the other wouldn't end up finding him dull - he was no match for a sophisticated man like him, even though he tried to make up for his shortcomings in other areas & so far it was working, but .. it was only fair that he worried, right? the pretty tailor was a catch he was sure many were thirsting for. makhi had no intention of losing. no matter the cost.
"you may count them... with your lips." those... came quite easily today, which pleased him.
