Mm, no. It's not that serious. I just thought it might be smart to do it sooner rather than later.
[Reynir doesn't seem to be objecting like his initial reaction had suggested he might, so Onni takes another bite of the toast and chews while Reynir explains himself. That he doesn't want to wait longer but he was surprised because he thought maybe Onni wanted to wait longer. Truthfully, it would've been nice to have more time to prepare his mind for something like a bond, something where he's going to be making himself so vulnerable, opening himself up to another person being connected to his mind and soul. But it isn't important enough to risk anything bad happening to himself or Reynir, not this far from home.]
I didn't want to leave it longer and I haven't changed my mind. I'm not excited about having someone else in my mind, but it's far better than the alternative. And I told you I'm not going to let you go feral. I'd also like to not explode.
[A pause, and he puts the toast down, letting it rest precariously on the rim of his bowl of porridge.]

It seems like you're excited about it.
