Okay. That makes a lot more sense to me. I know Leo was kind of writing her off, but he figured she was only doing it because guilds refused to accept the requests. He saw it as her getting let off the hook to let the guild deal with it. That and he's supposed to be the foil to Ricard. Ricard doesn't care that her magic is dark and Leo is hesitant precisely because of her magic. I'll get working on my response. Just one thing I do want to mention. I realize that my response, upon reading it again, was kinda short and aggressive on that point. I apologize for that. Pretty sure I had just woken up and was not in a great mood, on top of being concerned about where this was going. Usually, if I make a point like that, I am only trying to clarify concerns with how the RP is going and open up communication so that neither of us are trying to corral the plot to only our specific characters. I've had partners in the past who would do that and then lash out very badly when I tried to steer it a separate way for both of our characters. So, I do apologize for this incident, I just ask that you have some patience with it in the future. I understand why you responded more aggressively to me, but my response was going to be entirely different until I let it sit for a while and thought through what I wanted to get at.
