It's Lord of the Flies in my mind tonight
Personally, she doesn’t think that Sunjata deserves the loyalty she keeps seeing from the people around him. Being Family, as the Flood had demonstrated earlier in the year, doesn’t mean you’re a good person. It just means people have a fucked up sense of attachment.
But it’s a small price to pay for keeping fire away from her kin, and she imagines that Nate would want to protect Sunjata anyway, so in the end it isn’t that big of an ask.
“I don’t know. I’ve never been in a war. I’m a one-on-one or two-on-one kind of lady myself, so -” so it’s hard for her to make decisions for others, but she can do her best to make sure some things are understood. “ - this is out of my league as well.” And yes, even for her, it’s scary. What does she know about moving armies and directing people, her last go of it proved she was kinda shit at it, but then people also hadn’t done what they were supposed to do, so…
So it’s all up in the air.
“Of course,” an apologetic smile makes its way to the bottom of her glass. “Wish we could have met under different circumstances. Or earlier. I think we’d be friends.”
