This is a catch-all contact post for Zelos Wilder/Kaneis Major in warforged. Please put the style of contact (in-person, mail, scrying, messenger pigeons - whatever) and/or location in the subject line!
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.
[Zelos unfolds his arms to put on a hand on his hip.]
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.
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.
[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]

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

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.

Seeya later, Valamia.
[And off he goes.]
