Sara could only hope that whatever was bothering Kate, would come out on a more gradual scale. Rather than force the answer to reveal itself, the lieutenant was instead going to be patient with her, as it was in her nature to wait things out, before making her way to her goal. In other words, she was going to proceed, slowly and carefully. She will give her the time to open up, even if they start having a way-too personal conversation. However, once again, the white-haired was going to be patient with the other. She didn’t know of Kate’s inner thoughts, but then, she assumed that the smile on her face said that she was satisfied with Sara acknowledging her request. Perhaps there was a chance for them to bond, in order to get [b]both[/b] of them to open up, at the same time. The other woman responded back with a slow smile of her own. She didn’t know whether if she was right, but perhaps, that smile said something else, be it a sign of the other woman very, very slowly giving off a rather genuine peek of her own inner emotions. The poor girl has been losing touch with her true feelings, which was what Sara had already assumed, shortly after getting the nerve to observe her, from afar, over the past few months. Once more, in her more neutral yet downward state, there were melancholic feelings, along with those of isolation, while having to be agitated and enthusiastic when in her high. It wasn’t a very good balance for one person, emotionally and mentally, meaning that there was more behind the facade that Kate seemed to be masquerading, therefore she admittedly became Sara’s rather-curious point of interest for quite some time. She didn’t know a lot about her background, considering that the lieutenant had never gotten quite personal with her fellow soldiers...other than the fact that her aunt happened be a Section Commander of the Scouting Legion, which was quite evident by their shared-enthusiasm. All of her thoughts, if anyone asked about Katherine, were good ones, and that the brunette’s unique abilities have proven themselves to be benefitting for the Scouts, and Sara could only show her proudness silently with a thin smile. The white-haired female sighed once more, before rubbing her eyes again, by the time she heard the other speak once more, having to respond back rather casually yet sincerely. It’s like as if her soft voice was her mostly predominant trait. [color=00aeef]“As long as Erwin doesn’t call a meeting, I don’t. Why do you ask, Kate?”[/color]
