Garrock makes a face when Skobeloff refers to Topaz by her title. [color=FADA5E]"I hate that she gets people to call her that, but yes,"[/color] he says. [color=FADA5E]"Kurkar and one of my parents were siblings, and at one point they were close enough that they thought to introduce their offspring to one another."[/color] He shakes his head. [color=FADA5E]"It only happened a couple of times, neither particulary notable. Kurkar's other children were nice enough, I suppose, but they were much younger than me and my sibling, who had almost grown into our wings at that point. We didn't have much to talk about."[/color] He frowns. [color=FADA5E]"But Topaz, she was different from the rest of them. At those meetings, I felt she wanted to be there even less than rest of us did, like she was already bored of us from the very moment we met."[/color] He sighs. [color=FADA5E]"Anyway, we only met a couple of times, and once Kurkar became head-of-house, he talked far less to my parent. I've only seen Topaz a couple of times since while about in the Capitol, and I got the feeling she either recognise me or even remember me.[/color]" He looks slightly offended for a moment, but then shrugs. [color=FADA5E]"I guess it doesn't matter. I doubt we'd have any more to talk about now than we did back then."[/color]
