I'm surprised you didn't conk out in the middle. [she says like she doesn't sit and hang off every word when he goes on tangents. she likes listening to people talk about what they love.]

[ SOMETHING ABOUT THIS IS A LIL PATRONIZING. ]
That and my work, yes.

she stares at the big TRAITOR, and raises an eyebrow...]
Your work doing what? [this is a little tongue in cheek, like. what are you doing, plotting our doom, or]
no subject
Academics. Research.
no subject
On what! I'm going to keep asking you questions and you're going to hate every single one of them.
no subject
[ sigh. ]
Magic.
no subject
What kind of magic? I know... evocation? I think that's the only one.
no subject
Evocation, divination, transmutation. I would never limit myself to a single school. That would be a waste of my efforts.
no subject
[a pause.]
Okay, serious question - how much has Gale tried to peacock for you?
no subject
[ don't forget. ]
A little. He gave me a very long, dramatic, and poetic monologue about what magic means to him.
no subject
[be nice to gale]

no subject
I'm a good listener. The only thing to really bore me to tears is an overabundance of punching and stabbing.
no subject
That seems pointed, don't you think?
no subject
[ they click their tongue.]
No, it is simply I understand brawn is more of my brother's specialty, not mine.
no subject
[she likes axes!]
Your brother? Ooh, what's he like? [she sounds like, genuinely excited, tell her about your family...]
no subject
He is a soldier.
no subject
Gathered that. What's his name? [a beat.] What's your name? Not this War nonsense.
[she is like 100% sure they are not going to answer this question but who is she if she doesn't shoot her shot]
no subject
I'm afraid neither of those things are something I wish to divulge to you. I think you understand.
no subject
[a beat.]
Bet you don't want to talk about the big traitor word across your face, either.
no subject
I never said I was a good person. In fact, I am not a good person. I never at all considered or thought about being a good person until recently.
I have always done what I needed to do to get what I want.
no subject
Huh.
[her tail flicks back and forth.]
Has that worked out for you?
no subject
It worked extremely well up until some people started sticking their noses where they didn't belong.
no subject
Well. Most of the time. Sometimes you just get away with it, but that's what making a deal with the devil nets you.
