Which was why Connor wasn't too fond of the emotion, as he was not fond of greed. Greed corrupted men and women, countless of times. Connor didn't want to feel this way, nor did he want to bother anyone with it.
There are those who would say all men and women feel it sometimes, like his mother just said. Eirik reassured him that he was of no trouble and he shouldn't be ashamed.
Despite being reassured he wasn't a greedy man, he still wasn't fond of the feeling; so he channeled it elsewhere. Simple concern. Acceptance that he had those feelings was one thing, but he knew those emotions were poor. He just felt that himself and even if others said it was natural, he didn't want it to be so. He expected better of himself.
There would be those that would say he was naive, or childishly optimistic, for that.
However, he was curious about what his own mother would say regardless of how he placed judgment upon himself.
"No," he said softly, considering his words. "Princess Eirik is capable of charming the hearts of many, at times I felt like perhaps she had charmed...other men."
His teal-haired companion was probably easy to spot out there, as she was socializing with Ike, who she came with on this evening. Connor remembered Valentines' Day, and when he saw her kiss another. Of course, Connor knew it wasn't her and she had done nothing wrong then and now.
