It suffices, either way. If you're looking to someone with a silver tongue, I'm sure Thancred has a word or three to spare in your direction. In both regards, likely.

[ Well, she can’t deny that. That one on the First was the worst, honestly. But still!!!!
Also don’t embarrass her by asking if she’s ever tried to sleep with Thancred. ]
Believe it or not, I am not actually a “slatten whore”.
[ Which is to say that Ze is the first person she’s ever slept with that she wasn’t in an active romantic relationship with already. She’s not one to just fall into bed with people so casually.
Again, this will be awkward by the next chronological thread. ]
[s'fine we're just doing things in reverse. also please- he'd sleep with thancred if the man wasn't so aggressively straight. for a kind of... sampling sort of situation. try it once to say you did it.]
You've lain with me. Is it so farfetched to believe you might have attempted to do so with someone you might actually like?
[ She’s just embarrassed by it because she’s never admitted openly to her stupid crush on Thancred. He was the first Scion she ever met, the one who brought her into the fold. He made a big impression on young and impressionable Sarangerel. The flirtatiousness didn’t help matters either. She miiiight have sneakily read a few too many sordid romance novels as a teenager and Thancred was a protagonist straight from the pages of one back then. Though apparently even in those days Thancred knew better than to take advantage of a young girl who was every bit a hopeless romantic. ]
I have never said I loathed you. That was your presumption.
[if it's any form of consolation, ze is literally far too oblivious to be the type to notice anything of the sort. should it ever emerge in the future, however, he will tease her ruthlessly for it.]
You cannot tell me after all this you would feign a pretense of affection.
Quite serious. Hatred is reserved for cold-blooded ruthless murderers and heartless oppressors of peoples weaker than they— which you are neither. Naught you have done has convinced me you are anywhere near resembling such horrible monsters, hero. What you’ve taken for implications of hatred, as I have already explained, was a mere unwillingness to appear weak when met with insults and hostility.
If you truly think that then you know less of me than I thought. My inclination to bite my tongue in the face of the hapless and needy is motivated only by the knowledge I may never have to deal with them again. If that is something you also desire, I'm sure the Scions can see to it.

At least I will not have to worry about us falling into bed together again any time soon.

”Silver tongue” is a bit of an overstatement, but I am under the impression that Thancred often treats his casual bedmates more kindly, yes.
no subject
You've never tried for yourself? [a rude thing to ask, perhaps, but without the negative underlining.]
