Verin accepts the tea when it's close enough.

"Tell me where to sit since you're so intent on fixing my hair."

He thinks he could have a lot of questions if he gets going, but he also isn't sure that he wants all of them answered right this second. Verin can let things unfold.

He apparently isn't going anywhere, after all.

So he shares information from his end. The state of Bazzoxan, news he's had from Rosohna. Little bits of gossip that he doubts Essek will really care about, but it's information to share anyway and Verin, at least, thinks some of it is funny. There are a few names that occur with frequency, ones Essek might recall from conversations before this. For as well-liked and gregarious as Verin can be, his intimate circle is relatively small. Bazzoxan is harsh and he is a commanding officer. Fraternizing doesn't look good, and so the socializing he manages to do on equal footing is considerably less.

He looks down at his tea with a smile that doesn't have quite as much light to it.

"I think our mother is somewhat disappointed that I have not sought higher position." There is a war on, and Verin knows what it could do for him should he request command in the field. "She would see me at Ashguard, at the very least."
