Biting at the inside of her lip, Flora tucks away each and every bit of advice Ronin has to offer. "Right." She agrees, letting the words sink in and then some, if only to make sure she was understanding him properly. "Because it isn't personal, that's what you're saying, right? That it's all about what is best for Torchline and whoever is best for Torchline."
Leaning forward, Flora glances around despite knowing that the bar was empty. "Honestly, I think what it is, is that no one actually cares about the Mer. We did the canals and the stupid bubble stream and whatever, but no one uses them." Frowning softly, Flora shrugs. "I know everything should be fair and equal, but Torchline has never really been like that, and all of this hand-holding equality stuff is really getting to people." Straightening, Flora glances down at their empty cups before deciding that anything more would just make her sleepy.
"Well, I'm going to go see him in the morning, so I guess I'll let you know how it goes? And thanks for coming to check up on me I guess." This latter sentiment is said with a good deal of eye-rolling, but with no shortage of affection, either. "Want to walk me home? I can point out all the weird glowy purple shit you've been missing."
And of course, Ronin did.

Every single thing I touch becomes sick with sadness
'Cause it's all over now, all out to sea
'Cause it's all over now, all out to sea
