I dropped a ring and a necklace on the floor for pretty much no reason other than I was feeling incredibly lazy, and went to make some potions. While I'm doing so I start to hear Janessa and my Markarth Housecarl argue over the dropped item. Eventually the wife pulls out a sword and starts attacking him, he does nothing/health isn't depleting. If I just had just left/left alone would they have eventually stopped/resolved things? I just killed the guy and dragged him away. Now I miss my man servant.
