I take everything seriously,
Zavien laughs at the man's reference, remembering the nearly impenetrable shield providing the demigod's namesake. "I might have to take you up on that some time! Although I don't think my blows will feel like anything more than a thought against you." He gives Remi a good-natured smile, looking forward to training up to being a worthy opponent someday.
As the Bastion dives into his godly experiences, Zavien tries to keep his face neutral, nodding his head along for encouragement. It's easy enough with the talk of Ludo preserving relationships and Safrin's favoritism for Ronin. However, his cheeks redden at the descriptive conception story that follows. He takes a sip of beer to cool his face, using all of his willpower to keep from coughing in surprise at the nonchalance. It takes everything in him not to conjure any images. Instead, he sets his glass down and runs a hand through his hair, ruffling the golden strands enough to lay over the scarlet tips of his ears. "That sounds.... like a lot to process." Shifting slightly in his seat, he adds, "At least things seem to have worked out in the end." Zavien isn't privy to their relationship, but based on the tournament, Remi and Ronin's marriage seems to be intact.
Back on the topic of children, his mind overheats trying to puzzle out how the young man before him has a grown daughter around his age and Zavien settles on just laughing lightly. "That - uh - makes sense?" Math never was his strong suit.

Zavien
but I also take it lighthearted to recognize I can't control it.
