Malachi nodded. He had to agree to that. At first, he'd always thought he would eventually understand them, but he just couldn't. He had his friends he was close to. He'd been through a lot with Ben, for example, but he never seemed to chose Ben over everyone else. He knew Lavender had never actually chosen her friends over Malachi, but sometimes, it did feel that way indirectly.
He smirked a little a the question. Unbeknownst to Lily, gender had nothing to do with it to him. He was bisexual and therefore attracted to both sexes. He'd never deny it. "I think it's more of how he acts toward her than either their genders. It's how he acts toward Katie too. It's very clear he'd do anything for them, but then again, he's an asshole to everyone else in the world. Well, besides Truth. He's rather nice to Truth. I'd ever say it was sweet with him if Cormac wouldn't find out somehow and argue with me as if I'd insulted him."
