The Cursed Forge (PoisonousIvee/Mr.Aznable)

An Orc who was attracted to the same sex felt and sounded wrong. Wasn't that an insult to who he was as an Orc? A man loving another man, despite the other being rather feminine looking, seemed emasculating for an Orc. So, Casron tried not to make it obvious he liked the gifts. He was, indeed, rather smitten with Ghorrok - but he didn't want to insult his pride by saying anything about it.
 
Ghorrok didn't even register it. While he was proud to be an Orc, he never really bonded well with others of his kind. So, cluelessly, he continued.
 
"You can't keep bringing me things to shape, Ghorrok.." Casron said gently, "While I appreciate it, I can only work so fast.."
 
"You don't know what you're talking about." He said and reached to start smithing. He seemed a lot more forceful this time around with the metal. Ghorrok could easily see the emotion he was putting into it; anger, shame...fear?
 
"Do you even comprehend how difficult this is?! Do you even know how insulted your clansmen would be?! The shame your kind would feel! We're both men! You can't speak to me like you're interested in binding!" His voice began to crack and shake, "You'll die one day, and I'll live on!! Do you know how devastating that would be?! Do you even care?!"
 
"Oi dunno 'ow difficult it is.." he said. "Yer uh.. breakin yer metal.." he said as he sighed. "Oi can' 'elp 'ow Oi feel, Cas, an' Oi nev'r really cared fer other clanmates and such.."
 
He stopped hammering the now bent and warped metal and sniffed, "What makes a Tiefling so different? Because I make you nice things...?"
 
"Oi.. it.. ain' abou' race..?" He asked. "Oi.. just.. am really fond of ye.. much too simple fer complex consequences an' the like.." he said.
 
Was he really putting too much thought into this? Oh, to live so simply. "You'll still die later on and leave me..."
