Really? That’s what he’s going to nitpick about? Her eyes roll. Ok. So she got it wrong. Big fucking deal. “Excuse me for not knowing the intimate details. Whatever happened - you put yourself into a position where it didn’t pan out.” Leaning over the table towards the man as he stands up and tucks in his chair. “I’m listening. I’ve heard exactly what Edy said about Zariah. But the only thing I’ve heard from you and yours is ‘you’ll be bad at this’ and ‘this group of people doesn’t want you.’ No reasons. Just opinions. No solid examples of why I’ll be so terrible.” Her gaze is frank and measured, hands out in front of her.
And that’s the crux of it, isn’t it? A knee-jerk reaction, a guy feeling that very well might be solely because she’s Ascended, rather than incapable. You don’t survive for thirty eight years in Caido by being incapable and dumb.
She can’t quite follow his logic. Why he thinks she’s going to be unprepared is baffling. Just because she can’t say it here doesn’t mean it isn’t in the works. It doesn’t mean she isn’t training and working to make herself faster, stronger, and all that jazz. The Wraith just shakes her head with a tight-lipped expression. Always underestimated.
“Arrest you? For fuck’s sake, now you’re just being dramatic.”
