Voice Testing [Canon is Berserk]

[white_phoenix]

While your interest in me is flattering, I fail to see what it will gain me. Can you offer me a pleasant ending to my dream or are you merely going to act as a barrier to my goals? Your answer is important; it will determine whether I give you attention or not.

So, tell me.

Babbling? Well that's not an accurate depiction.

[castleforged]

It was. Battle under way, and you, working your mouth.

[white_phoenix]

A leader must give orders.

[castleforged]

And ride under their weight in steel. Right you are.

[white_phoenix]

Would you have me walk out onto the field of battle without wearing a stitch?

[castleforged]

You had any wit to you, you wouldn't walk out at all. You'd take up the bow and stay in the far lines. You're working against your build, playing with a sword like that.

[white_phoenix]

I prefer to be amongst my men and I can handle a sword better than most.

[castleforged]

Sure. You're good. You're fucking brilliant - til the first bone breaks. Thin boys like you don't mend well.

[white_phoenix]

I have accomplished much without the muscles you possess.

[castleforged]

...you think that was the point?

[white_phoenix]

To accomplish my dream, yes.

[castleforged]

Me, I'm starting to think it's easier getting to you by banging the stew spoon against your helmet.

[white_phoenix]

And what are you trying to get to me?

[castleforged]

You're working against your nature. That's what I'm telling you.

You're good enough to get away with it - til the first fall off that damned rowdy horse. Then, what?

[white_phoenix]

Then I fight hand to hand combat. Isn't that what any soldier does?

[castleforged]

...you sit yourself still. I'm getting the spoon.

[white_phoenix]

If that truly is your weapon of choice.

[castleforged]

Gets Judeau crying and you thinking some sense. Two hawks, one spoon.

[white_phoenix]

What works on you?

[castleforged]

To get me thinking, or crying?

[white_phoenix]

Both.

[castleforged]

...remind me why I'd tell you.

[white_phoenix]

Because we are friends.

[castleforged]

And friends gotta know how to put the hurt in each other?

[white_phoenix]

Who better to show you your own limitations?
