Well that's more information about his uncle's sex life than Ivan ever wanted to know, thank you very much Uncle Aral. Does Miles know all this? Somehow Ivan doubts it, and instantly decides in that moment to never tell his cousin what he know will never be able to un-know. Has he misstepped, somewhere, to make this his fate?
As much as he wants to claim this isn't his fault, he knows it's partly his, for sleeping with Byerly, and continuing to do so.
"I can't say that I have, sir." Which is a feat no one will appreciate, given his relatives and their desire and ability to drag people into it. "But everyone else seems to have a taste for disregarding that." Although, at the same time, everyone's mellowed out about it, recently, which Ivan finds himself both confused about and appreciative of. What's he supposed to do then, if it's not constantly telling Miles 'no' and being ignored.
Ivan frowns at his wine, and finishes off his glass.
