I'd like to hesitantly nominate my four Bonds with Ailee and Jackdaw - The train-eggineer terrifies me, and I have very good reasons to not like anything telepathic, so I'm really not sure how to get a read on Coleman yet even though I adore their concept; Squire Bonds: [b]I've bailed Ailee out of trouble more times than I can count.[/b] [i]"Never a dull moment."[/i] [b]Jackdaw is always willing to listen to me, even when no one else has time[/b] - I have a very strong idea of Lucien holding one sided conversations at Jackdaw using the pauses where they try to think of what to say to answer their own questions. [i]"Surely they can't mean-?" "-" "No. You're right, of course. They would. But the real question is, is it to their advantage, or to ours?" "-" "Mm. Of course, never assume you have the advantage - Try to be certain, and never be certain of your certainty... "-" "Jackdaw, I have no idea what I'd do without you. This could have been a disaster."[/i] And, in the true fashion of a human diplomat in a fantasy setting, I'd like to take one bond from the Elf and one from the Dwarf playbooks; [b]Jackdaw defeated me in a game of Scrabble and I still cannot believe it.[/b] [i]It wasn't even close, honestly.[/i] [b]Ailee is my drinking buddy.[/b] [i]"I'd like to let you in on a little secret to these formal events. Always ask for your glass to be topped up every three sips, make sure you always have something to nibble on with it, and nobody can tell how much you're really having. Well. For a while, anyway."[/i]
