[b]Master Jamie[/b] [@Joshua Tamashiii][@Zarkun] [color=f26522]"I am not stupid, Jack. I wouldn't go bursting in there. You forget what I can do. There's only one person who knows all my forms, and Jarvis is unlikely to tell anyone." [/color] He turned to Fraquar, and said [color=f26522]"I wouldn't go in there and pick a fight. I do know how to be stealthy, Fraquar."[/color] But then Jackie spoke, and Jamie stiffened. [color=f26522]"Don't you ever assume anything, about me. There is nothing weak about being scared for your comrades, and if you haven't learned that yet, Jackie, then you aren't going to."[/color] Jamie shock her head, "[color=f26522]there is nothing weak about caring, and nothing weak about not wanting to be responsible for someone else's death, again, if you haven't learned that you never will."[/color] Jamie said quite calmly, but Jackie's words had shaken him, and Jamie clenched her fists, [color=f26522]"One person tells me I'm too reckless, and that I'm risking the guild, the other tells me I'm weak, for trying not to risk the guild! I've learned to trust my instincts, and I am not going to start ignoring them now, and right now, I feel if I let others do this, then I prove that I am weak"[/color] Frustrated, Jamie said [color=f26522]"There's a big difference between being desperate, and being ticked off that the people that should trust me, are questioning my judgement,and making it seem like I do not know what I am doing, when I do. As a guild Master, you need to see the big picture, and if I let other guilds, others deal with this, then I'm effectively saying that I will let people take my members, and I won't do anything about it. I'm effectively saying that I approve of a potential guild war, approve of bringing back the fear magic has had the last 100 years, and I don't want that darkness back, but if you do, by all means, go ahead, make a mess of things because you can't see what could happen. I can go in, and get out without being suspected. Known, powerful mages hanging around a suspected dark guild's hotel will be noticed, but a child, or hotel staff? No one really notices them, and I can pose as them, and get in unsuspected. I'm not stupid, and this isn't my first rescue"[/color] [b]Jarvis[/b] Was he missing something? Jarvis frowned, [color=aba000]"Why is it no longer possible? Most spirit mages learn to fight, and defend themselves, enough that their spirits don't have to"[/color] Was something wrong? Had this price been more then the simple pain she had experienced?
