So, what can I conclude? In reality, nothing, since this is too much in the field of banter and too far from the real stuff. Now that I've started this analysis, I don't actually want to do it. Bugger. Anything that can be gleamed is soooo grasping straws. But it could make a starting point for a discussion, so for argument's sake and not for the sake of suspicion.
Shasta's response, or, rather, lack of such, is either perfectly normal ("this is silly banter, I'm not taking part in it") or perfectly suspicious ("voicing my thoughts on this matter is dangerous as it could give away some true feelings, so silence is best"). Or maybe he just shrugged the whole thing off as a joke and didn't bother joking back. Who knows.
Inziladun and
Boro take it as a joke, but in different ways.
Inzil goes for the content,
Boro for the wording.
Morsul echoes
Boro in this sense, but he doesn't mention his prior wolf hunting skills that
Boro laments about. No joke comparison to the other enemy.
Morsul has a good point later, because I would totally do that as a wolf, despite what
Inzil replies to that. Also, after
Morsul proposes a literal, face-value meaning,
Zil goes to say that I'm "up to something". Ah, so it's not plain banter anymore. Interesting turn.
Ok, I'm done. It's something from nothing, though admittedly not much of a something. Go on, discuss.
EDIT: xed with 2 Zils.
