Kain knew he had said that Cecil could switch their positions if he so chose, but the younger knight hadn't looked the least bit interested for five years. It would be cowardly to back out of their verbal agreement, but the dragoon didn't much care for the thought of the smaller man taking him. Oblivious as ever, Cecil didn't see the issue; the fight that had caused was awful, and Kain still felt like an ass for going off about such a thing being emasculating. The smaller man continued to be a bit miffed about that, but he at least relented that he would give the dragoon time, since it was a rather sudden shift in their dynamics. Kain used that time to rearrange the younger knight's mind from between his legs, perhaps holding onto a little hope that his prowess would convince Cecil that there was no need for this change. Cecil was very fond of Kain's spear, after all.
