Kaite isn't that big of a jerk.

I'm bad at writing as that kind of a jerk...though I kinda played Kaite up to be that. At best, shes not in the mindset nor does she have the energy to actually blow up.
I know it doesn't work very well for interactions, but Kaite had her days of being a merciless bitch. Losing it all and then being beaten leaves her with the chill of the soil...and a burly orc wanting to help.
;x

EDIT: This stuff just erases itself.
Shes certain to give more of a shit about the crew after failing to protect literally a single one of them. Her job was to take the brunt of punishment and turn to strike down those who would threaten anyone less capable than herself. Its a bit jaded of a thought process, but she'd protect any of [i]her[/i] strangers with tooth and nail. Losing a single one has left her a bit busted in terms of morale; Kaite didn't even see the Warlock take her, and knowing her own negligence possibly damned some poor innocent girl to unknown torment is...heavy.

'The Black Knight' is the can, not the meat.
The meat has a heart and soul that seeks for a place to belong outside the can.

She wouldn't so selfishly squander the qualities of prime garnish...
