    Summary

    "Their corpse proved quite stubborn."
    He presented her an opportunity, and she grasped at it in desperation.
    "I'm surprised, you're so very good at taming stubborn."
    Her playful attempt at schmoozing won a stiff snort, and nothing more.
    "Oh..." Breathed with a coy lilt, she feigned innocence that could have been believable, if she were anyone else. "Are you still cross with me?"
    Stealing another gulp, he sneered against it's bite. The strength of which smoked his voice to a heady resonant.
    "Back during your apprenticeship, when you disobeyed one of your superiors, or spoke back at them out of turn; in what manner did they see fit to punish you?"
    A preemptive attack from which she was slow to recover.
    "I... got a good tongue lashing." Her words were tight from a throat that fought against their release. "A common occurrence, I might add."
    "Just as I suspected." After a breath, he then angled a brow down into his drink. "The correction of your behavior falls into my lap after all."

    Summary

    The hour was late, and the thought of disturbing her nagged with apprehension. Surely she didn't require his company, nor his consolation, when she had such a treasured, sororal bond with Neve. Yet he found himself taking the long walk down the corridor to her quarters nonetheless.

    'Perhaps reminiscing of home will offer a welcome distraction, if only for a short while.' He assured himself. 'A comfort that I am uniquely disposed to provide.'

    All thoughts of Nevarran eccentricities and their hopeful nostalgia halted as he arrived at her door. It greeted him with an alarming sound.
