[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]

I wouldn't have called the first one, but I can see that playing out exactly like that if Lucien never gives Jackdaw a chance to chime in. :P

On my end, I have four Bonds to give out, and I think I'll be doubling up on Ailee. She and Jackdaw have a bit of history already, and I think that's the best way to represent it.

[b]I stood watch for Ailee on the [s]worst[/s] [s]best[/s] most night of our lives.[/b]
[i]Why didn't I say anything? I could've said something. I should've said something. But I didn't, then it was too late, and. Um. We don't have those lives anymore.[/i]

[b]Lucien tells the best campfire stories, I don't know how I'd settle down without them.[/b]
[i]He never messes them up! Ever! How does he do it?![/i]

[b]When things go south, I'm hiding behind Coleman.[/b]
[i]And his train baby! Um, well, it's not [u]his[/u] train baby, but it sort of is, in that it was given to him, but it's not [b]his[/b]-his, and anyway that's where I'm standing.[/i]

[b]I wouldn't have my crown jewel without Ailee's help.[/b]
[i]Someday, I'm gonna have the right words to thank her.[/i]
