The silence Faolan gave him made the Frenchman nervous. He hoped he wasn't going to be shut down but.. he would understand if he was. After all Faolan hadn't come here expecting to leave with someone in tow. He tensed slightly when the Irishman stated he had heard their argument. He didn't think they had been that loud but.. it seemed his hearing was better than he thought. He wondered if this meant he had further suspicions of what he might be but.. considering he hadn't brought it up or acted any differently.. not even back when he had healed him, he didn't think it was something he had to worry about. He.. trusted Faolan. 

His response eased a bit of his tension, it wasn't a no, and that was enough for him to maintain his determination to go. After all, if he hadn't wanted him to deal with him, he could have just immediately shut him down. If there was anything he had learned about Faolan in their time on the ship, is that he was a fairly straightforward person. 

[color=burlywood]"I.. understand that. I know that there is still a lot I don't know about the world.. and I'm sure the life that awaits me is nothing like what I've lived the past twenty years.. but that's why I want to go. I'm tired of living behind these church walls. I want to experience the world."[/color] The small amount of hesitation in his voice had begun to fade as he spoke. 

[color=burlywood]"I promise I won't get in your way. I'll be sure to pay proper attention and try to help in any way I can. I don't want to be a burden to you."[/color] That was the last thing he wanted. It was difficult to tell the man that he would be okay. After all he couldn't just outright tell him that he couldn't be hurt, or that he had never caught any sort of illness in his life. There were relatively little things he had to worry about physically, but that would be too difficult to explain without completely revealing himself. While he did trust the man, he didn't feel it was something he should just say. It wouldn't be the easiest thing to believe.
