Cohorting, is it a word? if not what should I use instead [closed]

In this context, I'm trying to express that Seamus accidentally was frolicking with the enemy. I guess a better way to say it is unintentionally interacting.

Domá turned to Seamus, “So let me get this straight. On your first day back in Ireland — you got caught by Vikings — lost Josie and Bally— and almost got yourself killed. Not to mention cohorting with both of my enemies and their conjurer. Does that sum it up?”

Solution 1:

Seamus was accidentally fraternizing with the enemy.

fraternize

To associate on close terms with members of a hostile group especially when contrary to military orders

were ordered not to fraternize with the enemy m-w

Associate or form a friendship with someone, especially when one is not supposed to. Lexico

The upper-class girl who decides to fraternize with Western men even on a platonic basis can expert her family to severely criticize her and eventually reject her altogether if she persists. Boye De Mente; Women of the Orient
