Aymeric's persistence earns him a genuine grin from Estinien. "I look forward to it."
What a strange man he is. Clearly a superlative speaker and soldier, and nigh imperturbable to boot. He'd be better served putting his talents to use making friends among the other noble house sons and brothers who stand to inherit. And yet, here he is, in a dark tavern, making foolish deals with a lowborn orphan.
Estinien is not often intrigued by people, but this young man -- Estinien cannot deny that he is interesting.
"If you can't beat me, though, I'd have payment..." he doesn't need to think it over, he already knows what he wants, but he still pauses a moment to gauge Aymeric's reaction before adding, "Information, maybe. About you."
