The blows and words probably should have disturbed Rivin but while the one was painful it was also interesting. While the suggestions held the potential for significant unpleasantness they were also intriguing. The Lysanrin's curiosity was at least as great as that of his Magus and when the slaps paused he turned enough that they could see one another's faces to confer. The gleam of excitement, of desire (neither sexual) in the wide, dark eyes that met Aurin's looked more like those of an eager accomplice than a man being quietly threatened.
The idea of being caught and tormented was so normal in his thoughts that he all but brushed it aside in favor of entertaining the new ones being presented.
"I too, also want to know these things." There was no reluctance in his tone and his tail flicked a bit as it did when the Magus dangled some now bit of tantalizing information before him. When he was excited he often added unnecessary words to his sentences in Common without seeming to notice.
Instinctively he shook his head at the suggestion that he would leave his apprenticeship before realizing that the redhead spoke of a time significantly in the future. Rivin could not know what it held and so the musings were fair, if currently unpleasant. Perhaps the suggestions were another form of discomfort for him to endure.
"I will stay so long as I can learn." That there might come a time when Aurin had no more to teach him did not occur. He squirmed a little under the slightly ticklish touch but made no objection, except when he was broken he never made any about anything. He still bled from the accidentally self inflicted knife wound but it was not currently important so he put it in a back part of his mind to ask Sivan's help with later.
The blinked in surprise as his tail was held and examined but it made sense, the Magus did not have a tail, he would want to study it. The tugging, when it came, was actually rather pleasant, straightening his spine and causing him to arch into the stretch. If it had been yanked hard, or closer to the tip, it would have been painful and worrisome, as with any tailed creature.
"It is wise to," He paused as the Magus's hand once again brought him the sharpness of it's pain, "To learn these things."
Rivin would have trusted him less had he not wanted to ensure the sanctity of his secrets.
"We should," He gasped as another blow fell, "Test in various ways. I also should know this for my own safety."
Breathing slowly was no longer keeping the pain within easily accepted confines. He slid back down enough that he was more easily accessible but could not longer see his mutually agreed upon tormentor. The warm pain was becoming a hot, difficult thing, making his belly tighten and his teeth clench to keep himself quiet.
In moments he was wincing and moving but very obviously somewhat annoyed by his own reactions as they might hinder both the application and his own study of them. He would ask the Magus to show him later, with his magic, what he had seen.
