“Then why do you defy me so?”
The young silverette placed down the antique cup on the pairs table, the gentle afternoon wind carrying the scent of honey and alovera along the spring breeze. The tree the pair was sat under was old, towering and looming overhead, casting a nice, cool shadow over the pair. Though the situation was certainly dire, and if anyone was to look at the pair, they’d probably think they were having some form of lovers or siblings tiff.
“If you truly wished to help people, if you really wanted to save these worlds as you’ve said, you wouldn’t be standing here. No, instead, you’d have those warm, caring hands wrapped tightly around my thoat, choking me of air until my neck snaps and my spine is no longer connected to my brain. But you haven’t”
With a smile - as rare as it was - she looked up at the young summoner; oh, this poor man… Smart, perhaps. But he was dreadfully inexperienced in combat and even-more-so when it came to matters such as these. She could tell he spoke from the heart; that was well and clear. And yet…
He was far too Green. He, himself, was probably being played a fool and he was none-the-wiser, simply because he was summoned on the “right” side of things.
“Tell me, then, summoner… Why are you such a coward? If you wished to change the course of this war, why must you sit on the back-lines of combat, and insist that you’re changing things? Please don’t think you can lecture me on changing fates. But you’re not going to change anything by sitting at the back, directing others to do your dirty-work. At least I have the courage to fight.”
Courage? Is that really what she’d call it? No matter, she wasn’t about to delve into these matters with him. He was a scared little lamb, and she could see in his eyes his resolve; calm and concrete, yes, but also wavering; with the thoughts of however-many universes that may lay within his grasp.
