🔺 @aiiron 🔻 (continued from ask) Niles recognised that false front of bravado the moment it went up. Until that point, he'd only half been focusing on his conversation with Subaki- the two of them had found themselves sitting together, and Niles' mind had been preoccupied with thoughts of battle. Only now did he realise that perhaps he had spoken a little more harshly than he had meant to. But there wasn't a lot that he could do about it now. "I don't think I will go back to camp, no. Your company is at least somewhat interesting." A sentence at odds with what he'd just said, but also as close to an apology as Niles was willing to give. Subaki should be honoured.
