βHow many times are you going to bleed for them?βΒ
βPersonally? As many as it takes.β Came the staticky response.
The Eliksni finished binding a wound to their hand, flexing it experimentally before looking back to the Guardian.
βI donβt do this to gain their approval (not having to worry about scared shots would be a nice thing, though),β they grunted. βI help them because weβve decided itβs the right thing to do. Someone has to start showing a real truce can be made between usβ¦ even if that means bleeding in the process.β
Β Cooperation and in-person interaction was practically a requirement. It was risky, but the House of Light couldnβt keep to themselves and expect things between humans and Eliksni to magically get better. Peace was preferable to this centuries-long fighting, wasnβt it?
β theyβll never trust you, let alone accept you.βΒ whether it was about approval or not. savri was suspicious at best; it was hard to expect anything but trickery and violence regarding the eliksni. she knew better. eyes narrowed, and she kept her distance; despite the biting words, though, her gun remained untouched at her side. sheβd already agreed to a truce-- granted, it took some strong-arming on behalf of her fireteam.Β Β βΒ yourΒ people have done too much. killed too many. you say itβs the right thing to do. who taught you that? certainly not your kind.β
