Was it correct to say Argis was, in fact, enjoying himself? Despite the redhead’s obvious boredom, the Paladin actually liked the change of pace. No battles to fight, no men to heal, no corpses to retrieve from the battlefield for their last rites— everything was just blissfully banal and shallow. “If we’re being honest, I think it’s a little disrespectful to abandon this meeting before the guests leave”. He was simply speaking with true objectivity. “Now, subjectively—” the Highlord turned to face Robb, a softer expression drawn over his features as he gifted the other with a sly, cocky grin. “Most of these people have purposefully avoided contact with you for the greatest part of the evening. I don’t think any of them will truly notice your absence, and if someone is in fact, trying to catch you on your own, then my presence might be all the protection you need.“ His reputation preceded him. No one would try to act too smart around Robb Stark as long as he stood by his side, and that filled him with pride ”What did you have in mind?” the last question was spoken in a nonchalant manner, his tone becoming more familiar and even playful.
