My thanks.

I have to say, I am rather appalled you turned out to be the villain. As I publicly supported you, I fear it may ruin my reputation!

[legendaryretcon]

Nonsense. Everyone publicly supported me. That's part of the charm of it all.

[easilyflustered]

... We seem to have a different definition of "charm."

[legendaryretcon]

Do we? Such a shame.

[easilyflustered]

Or perhaps our ideas of charm require different adjectives. Yours seems to fit the adjective "predatory."

[legendaryretcon]

Does that make you the "prey", Reim? I'm sure it's a role you would come to enjoy eventually.

[easilyflustered]

Thank you, but I would prefer not to. I have been exposed to that particular role in relation to a version of you in the DR, and would rather not repeat it.

[legendaryretcon]

If you prefer the predatory role, then things could always be arranged. It's really no difference to me.

[easilyflustered]

I'm afraid that isn't in my nature.

[legendaryretcon]

It may simply be the lack of experience. All things come easily enough with practice.

[easilyflustered]

That, frankly, is something I would prefer not to practice! Some things are better left not experienced!

[legendaryretcon]

A pity. It would have been a most enjoyable set of lessons.

[easilyflustered]

From my perspective, I rather doubt it.

[legendaryretcon]

You shouldn't. Allowing people to enjoy themselves is rather the point of it, wouldn't you say?

[easilyflustered]

Not when it harms other people.

[legendaryretcon]

Hahaha -- I didn't realize you were into that sort of thing Reim. I assure you, I would be just fine afterwards though.

[easilyflustered]

... There really is no speaking with you, is there?

[legendaryretcon]

We are speaking though, are we not?

[easilyflustered]

Speech without communication is worthless.

[legendaryretcon]

It is simply another way to pass the time. There is worth in that.

[easilyflustered]

I can think of many better ways to pass the time.

[legendaryretcon]

I did offer. You should make up your mind.

[easilyflustered]

[So not impressed.]

With people other than you, I meant.

[legendaryretcon]

Xerxes Break?

[easilyflustered]

[That gets a suspicious look.]

Among others.
