never be so kind you forget to be clever
Though Hadama was doing a great Judge Newman impersonation, Flora didn't really feel as if her questions had been answered. Admittedly that might be because it wasn't the sort of thing Hadama had asked for, but..shrug.
"Okay, but that isn't really what I asked though." She protests with a smile. "And you make it seem even more us vs. them with the whole "Mer punish mer" and "humans punish humans." Flora continues with a delicate shrug of her shoulders.
"Is Torchline all one, or no? Because right now it seems like no." When the canals had been opened the Torchers hadn't gotten together and made a bunch of rules for the Mer, had they? No. They'd just expected them to follow the laws like everyone else. But this felt like different rules for the Mer and different rules for the Torchers, which, in Flora's humble opinion, meant they weren't really one people.
