Who: Anyone
When: Day 50, late morning
Where: Here and there
What:

[A few hours in, and the halls far more resemble a messy abattoir rather than the last bastion of civilization. Batmonkey corpses, batmonkeys on fire (careful there!), and more than anything, lots and lots of live batmonkeys.

Well, Thusia? How goes your morning?]

[after a brief moment of silence]

I suppose now it is only a matter of hearing what his verdict is... correct?

[Shakes his head.]

It is only a matter of hearing it. That verdict's nature was never in doubt.

What do you mean...?

I asked if you would meet him. I never stipulated that you needed to win him.

... Ah.

I trust you to be the person I have seen you be. And that person is not one Gilbert can object to, no matter how much he may want to. I know him too well for that.

... I appreciate your confidence.

If it is confidence, it is confidence with reason.

Be yourself. That is all I will ask of you, and it's more than enough.

[uwah]

... I shall do my best.

[Nods, accepting that.]

On a related note, it would be good to know what you expect of me, as well.

... Nothing, particularly...

Then would it be fair to ask what you want?

I believe I've already told you. All I ask is that my ideals are respected.

That's truly all? Nothing else matters to you. No hopes, nor requests . . . only that?

...

[thinking for a moment, then]

Allow me to protect you, if you are ever in danger.

"Allow you" again . . .

While far from incapable, I am not so proud as to refuse aid. Especially in a place as rife with danger as this one.

That would be all.

Then, in as much as you think you may need it, you have my consent.

[nods, satisfied]

And if there is anything else you think of, please let me know.

Mm, likewise.
