SARGE: sided with Petra
SARGE: questioned her authority
TALLY: oh
SARGE: yeah
TALLY: well
TALLY: when I first became a biddy i had a panic attack
TALLY: chest pounding so much I could barely breathe, and she sat with me and helped me through my panic attack
SARGE: sounds like Má
TALLY: but she just seems different
TALLY: or maybe she was always like this
SARGE: i wish she cared less about power
TALLY: i dont know that is power
SARGE: ??
TALLY: I think it's control.
TALLY: controlling events
TALLY: the outcome
TALLY: All because she's terrified that if someone else takes over more witches might die.
TALLY: And she'll be more alone.
TALLY: like she was after the burning
SARGE: Never thought of it that way
SARGE: You've been thinking about this a lot

TALLY: For months now
SARGE: oh really
TALLY: Read a lot of books as well
TALLY: I needed to find a way to understand her
TALLY: why she made bad decisions
SARGE: Craven I imagine like anyone else one step at a time
TALLY: should i get abs to make a wise old woman meme of you
SARGE: Craven I will make you run laps around the base if you do that
TALLY:
TALLY: anyway i'll keep an eye out for the meme creator

SAM: aren't you supposed to be on break?
TALLY: can I ask something?
JACK: you don't need to ask permission tal
TALLY: well I did make Sarah and you all mad
JACK: tru
JACK: but prolly going to be a while before we unpack that angst :)
SAM: go ahead
TALLY: is she in danger?
TALLY: like I know logically she is
TALLY: the general but like actively
JACK: I mean yes, there are thousands of threats a year
JACK: kind of the nature of her job
SAM: why do you ask?
TALLY:
DEVON: that's pretty common Tally
TALLY: oh
TALLY: do you think she wishes she had a different job
TALLY: a different life
SAM: :/ honestly dont know
SAM: she's not very open about those things with us
SAM: I'm the newest but
JACK: she doesn't talk much about that
SAM: Tally, she doesn't get to do anything else. Doesn't have anything else.
SAM: her family died 300 years ago
JACK: she basically never gets close to anyone cause they die
JACK: they will always die before her
JACK: and she's bound to the accords
TALLY: she doesn't get a choice?
SAM: did you? If you remove the dispensation piece
TALLY: no
DEVON: tally she knows people don't like her
DEVON: she just kind of puts it away in a box and tries not to think about it
TALLY: seems lonely
SAM: basically it is
SAM: you remember in the bond that weird ache that would happen at night
TALLY: kind of
JACK: thats the fear, loneliness, anxiety
JACK: Nora would be better to talk about this but it doesn't excuse her actions. Just puts them in a different light.
TALLY: okay
JACK: hey chin up you’re on break go relax
TALLY: alright i will

TALLY joined the "BAB" chat
TALLY: hey
NORA: Hello Tally.
TALLY: sorry to barge in
NORA: Tally it's fine.
TALLY: okay, so hypothetically , if I did damage to an army vehicle how much trouble would I be in
VICTORIA: you did what now
TALLY: I did nothing
KYLIE: Tally.
VICTORIA: what did you do
TALLY: nothing
VICTORIA: right…
TALLY: okay we sheered the mirror off
TALLY: we thought we were being tailed
TALLY: might have been nice to know
VICTORIA: you sheered off the mirror
TALLY: i mean we weren’t wrong we just didn’t realize it was the army tailing us
ALDER: Nothing will happen Craven.
TALLY: General, okay I was just worried.
TALLY: you could have let us know you were putting a detail on rae
ALDER: Better to be discrete.
TALLY: right
TALLY: though they were kind of dicks about it
TALLY: makes sense though witchbomb is #1 priority
ALDER: Do you really think that?
ALDER: That I only care about the Witchbomb.
ALDER: The protection detail is for both of you.
TALLY: oh
TALLY: thanks
ALDER left the chat
TALLY: talking to her feels awkward
NORA: I’d imagine so since you two fell out.
TALLY: im still mad about batan
JACK: sarah is still mad at you
SAM: but that doesn't mean we want you hurt or worrying, okay?
KYLIE: Hence the protection detail.
KYLIE: Don’t overthink it.
TALLY: okay 🙂
TALLY: stay safe <3
JACK: you too
JACK: enjoy break
VICTORIA:
