Gerard, quite pleased with how safe he'd kept himself this go around compared to prior battles, shrugged off the First and Youngest's admonitions similarly— as far as he was concerned, none of it really applied. Armor was armor, and ensconsed within a clothen medium such as the (admittedly slapdash) sacks that were tied to the crooks of their three arms, he knew of no curse that could truly endanger the lot of them, especially if shards of Angoron itself didn't require [i]much[/i] more in the way of insulation to handle.

Midnight Hunt or no, this thing Renar had felled surely couldn't despoil whole countrysides just by being out and about.

It was with this reassured poise that he stood in formation with the rest of his peers as Fionn had his repartee with the various fae he was evidently keen to collect, like a village child with beetles, and the Moonlit Queen made a show of keeping them all waiting to recieve their agreed-upon reward for victory. Although part of him, a substantial one at that, wanted to claim the trinket personally... he kept his mouth shut, at least until the selection of treasures was brought forth. Although he had made a promise, and intended to keep it in full measure... he was already negotiating from a disadvantage. For whatever reason, she'd proven to take umbrage with his words before already, and seemed much more intrinsically fond of Fanilly. Gone and decided to give him a rainbow for a hairstyle for a few minutes.

For all he knew, he'd spent too long in her sister's court, and the Queen had caught her scent on his armor, or something inscrutable like that.

Regardless, he had proof now that if he were to speak at all, it had best be judiciously, and only if the Captain couldn't say it herself. He leaned forward, voice sinking low with a slight nudge to Fanilly's ornate pauldron. 

[color=goldenrod]"These are to be symbolic of her own might,"[/color] he mentioned, mindful not to mention the "but of little true value" portion of the assessment aloud. [color=goldenrod]"Yet treasures she's willing to part with on a wager all the same. May as well be ready for anything, shouldn't we?"[/color]
