[Most of the Fortress respected him quite a bit and those that didn't would learn why they should. That being said, he quite enjoyed his reputation here too. There was something nice about just being another guy to everyone and being judged for that instead his title and position.
Wriothesley jolts a little, somehow more caught off guard by the kiss even if it was Rinne who initiated it. After all, he had taken Rinne's abstaining quite seriously, and isn't that playing a little dangerously to do that?
Instead, he laughs. Rinne and Wriothesley might not be so dissimilar. Wriothesley didn't have a particularly terrible image of himself. One can't say he had low self esteem when he held his chin high. There are things that linger with you enough to color the way you view things. Like how he had grown up without a parent's love and how everything he had managed was forged by his own hands without real help.
A life of solitude, he didn't mind, but it also meant that he had made certain assumptions about himself.]
And I wouldn't have the heart for it. I think that you'd find someone far more befitting to do that instead. [Because Wriothesley doesn't think he's really cut out for romance. A man in charge of a city of exiles in his solitude. No, Rinne needed someone more than that. Someone who surely could over love and happiness.] But lets enjoy today together anyways.
