This may come to a surprise to you, but I'm not a naive child. I know how hard it can be to change a person. But that's really not my problem. I'll keep existing whether she accepts I'm a person or not. There's not much she can do to me.

[At least, not without it ending badly for her.]

But she can have all the time she wants. You don't have to worry, I'll continue doing what I'm asked on missions, even if I'm with her. I got my own reasons to fight the Legion, after all.

Just don't expect me to be friendly with her. Or accept her as our leader.

[stormcalling]

There are plenty of people of all ages who assume change is far easier then it is. Age doesn't dictate if a person understands, experience does. When none of us seem to know all that much about each other it seems fair to be unsure.

[She pinches the bridge of her nose, gotta stay focused. Don't get too motherly about Vas.]

I'm asking for civility, at least. [a beat] I don't want her to try and seriously take up the leader mantle somewhere down the line. Maybe not as much as you but it's not something I wish to see.

Valamia, I'm a mercenary. I got brought here to fight the Legion. And I got plenty of experience working with people I hate way more than Vas to know I won't let my dislike get in the way.

But I'm not being paid to coddle your kid. Or to be pleasant.

[stormcalling]

My kid? If she was my kid she wouldn't even be a paladin at her age. That's an entirely different conversation. [Not that Vastania wasn't like her daughter but well...sake of the conversation might as well be technical.]

Ever consider not bothering to hate people? Casual indifference goes a long way.

[wilder]

Whatever. You act like she's your kid enough to count to me. [Technicalities or not, he really doesn't care]

Sure, I do. I feel casual indifference for most of the Sworn. Vas has just done enough to pass into my dislike spectrum.

[stormcalling]

[She wants to retort how it's called being an adult. Look after the youth but that was a pointless thing to point out now.]

Great. [She doesn't know what to do. She's frustrated, tired and feeling very old. She vents to herself with a long string of Eredan curses.]

...I suppose there's nothing else I can say. Go do whatever it is you were going to do. Punch someone or something. I haven't a clue.

[wilder]

Will do.

[He's immediately turning away and starting to leave. He knows that he's aggravated her. Sure, he doesn't speak a word of Eredan, but he knows a string of curses when he hears one. But he doesn't really care. He felt promising to remain professional during missions was a fair enough compromise]

Seeya later, Valamia.

[And off he goes.]
