[center][color=yellow][h3]Lunalel Lightsword[/h3][/color][/center] [color=yellow]”What? ‘Do whatever Livia’s plaything says?’ ‘Scared of your mom?’”[/color] Luna asked, confused. Livia’s plaything? She and Miss Lindall got along well, right? [color=yellow]”If you mean Miss Lindall, she just asked me if I wanted to join her on an ‘adventure’ or something of the sort.”[/color] She then shrugged as she moved on to the next point. [color=yellow]”As far as your mother goes, I’ve no idea who she is.”[/color] After she finished answering the question, she put her hand up to her head and scratched it. She was suspicious obviously. Well, not like it probably wasn’t understandable. [color=yellow]”I mean, I know you did some unspeakable things to Maoin of which I don’t approve, of course.”[/color] The Knightess went silent for a couple of seconds as she mentally reached for the words she was wanting. [color=yellow]”I might be part of the fools you speak of. In my life, I’ve spent time with many soldiers and armed peasants, all of which I treated as companions as you are now. It’s just not in my nature to let my companions be assaulted by a giant land dragon and stand by watching. Especially when they can’t really fight back.”[/color] [color=silver]"Haa? Companions? Is that what you think of me? Even after knowing what I almost did to that pathetic excuse for a familiar?"[/color] She laughed in mild disbelief. Humph. Lies. Marie didn't trust her for a second. Well, she supposed she wouldn't know who her mother was. Not like Viatrix went around announcing her presence…well, no, she usually did just that come to think of it. Attention whore. [color=silver]"Well, I can't say I can't understand the sentiment. After all, you should be nice to your toys or they break, yes? Keep their morale up and all that. Loyalty breeds Loyalty as some say and we're at least forced to tolerate each other here."[/color] She smirked. [color=silver]"Naïve. I much prefer them knowing that if they do something I don't like, they'll suffer a fate worse than death - and make no mistake I certainly have the ability to do that."[/color] She hummed lightly for a moment to herself. [color=silver]"Ahh, but that's irrelevant."[/color] She sighed, seemingly taking a few seconds to find the words to continue. [color=silver]"So I am right, then? You simply treat everyone around you with that same naïve kindness regardless of who they are?"[/color] For the briefest instant Marie's smirk seemed to waver. She obviously still didn't believe Luna, but her attitude at least seemed a bit less hostile now. This girl was quite something, that was for sure. Luna was slightly angry with her with her comments about “breaking toys” as that was completely opposed to Luna’s thought process. [color=yellow]”What? ‘Naïve kindness’ you say? Perhaps it is. Perhaps it is not. I’m wary of you, do not misunderstand. Still, as it were, we are together on this journey. On my honor, I would fail myself if I were to let you fall and stand aside. That is my standing as a Lightsword.”[/color] [color=silver]"I don't believe you."[/color] Marie replied simply as she began walking, the small ball of pure white light going out as she began walking back towards the camp. She stiffly brushed past Luna, not sparing her a second glance. If anything, she seemed rather disappointed for some reason. [color=silver]"Not that it matters, human. People are fundamentally selfish beings. Your kindness is just to feed your ego and bragging rights so you can show others just how ‘good’ you are.”[/color] She paused for a brief moment, glancing back towards Luna. [color=silver]"Heh, not to mention…I'm fairly certain if you had a choice between saving me and someone like say, Sol, you'd choose obviously the child."[/color] That was… Oh what was it called? A loaded question? [color=yellow]”You’re most likely right. I probably would save Sol.”[/color] Luna said, bluntly. [color=yellow]”She’s a brighter soul than either of us, I feel. You can think of me selfish if you want but that doesn’t change the truth though.”[/color] Not that Marie would have likely seen, but Luna shook her head. Demons were both selfish and stubborn. [color=yellow]”If I wanted you to die, I could have let Avaline go to town. My heart wouldn’t have raced, my legs wouldn’t have moved and my arms wouldn’t have swung. Even if you did what you did to Maoin, you don’t deserve to be presumably eaten. However, you are going to think what you will”[/color] [color=silver]"…Heh. At least your honest."[/color] Marie sighed, shaking her head with a shrug, dropping the conversation and heading back to camp. [color=silver]"I wonder what I do think? You’re a funny human, I know that at least."[/color] Whatever was going through her head, she wasn't going to be telling Luna it seemed. [color=yellow]”I don’t think I’m all that funny though.”[/color] Luna stated, scratching the side of her head wondering what exactly a demon found funny about her. She followed Marie back, feeling as if she had won the argument though it was more likely there was no real argument to make. [center][h3]Everyone except Luna[/h3][/center] Katherine couldn't help but sigh at Meowka, at least she wasn't calling her sweet cheeks anymore. [color=green]"Yes, yes."[/color] There were worse things. [color=green]"Just go sit at the table, it'll be along soon, Meowka."[/color] Katherine said , petting her cat before she headed over to Miren. [color=green]"Nevermind about the no food for Meowka thing by the way."[/color] The Puppeteer added with a shrewd smile. [color=green]"She's fine to eat now."[/color] Sol just had to laugh at Avaline. [color=f22222]"No, that's not a hat! Hehehe. It's for drinking stuff."[/color] She took the item back filled the mug up with nearby water and showed it off before taking a drink from it. [color=f22222]"See? It's useful for drinking. There are better hats out there anyhow."[/color]
