"SUre, seen em both. They seem cool." A pause, "Dame Leonora is hot."

"Yes, ah, well...." He clears his throat. "Would you like me to speak with them?"

"On your behalf." He clarifies.

A pause, "You think I should be a squire for one of them, and not you?"

"I think it's an idea worth exploring; I'm not sure I can give you the experience you want, or need. You know a year ago I was going to be a priest, right?"

"Oh geez man, I see the problem" He looks at August, "Okay. Repeat after me: I am good enough to deserve a squire. I'm Smart enough, I'm Nice enough, I'm heroic enough, and gosh darn it, people like me'"

He appears to be serious, thinking the liam is suffering from insecurity

August shakes his head. "It's an issue of my being good enough; it's make sure we are the right fit. I mean.... my favorite past times include reading and studying. I like tea, and I don't really drink alcohol. "

"Well, that's how I'd help out. I'd do the interesting stuff, but I don't want you to feel forced. No means no right? SO... if you want to let Sir Magnus or Dame Leonora know I'm available, it's cool"
