Beau and Caleb talking about the Empire & Cerberus Assembly being “bullshitty” and being the Empire Kids of the group
Beau: “I don’t know, look at this. Look at how much money is up here compared to elsewhere. This is a lot of control”
Caleb: “yeah. What are you going to do about it?”
This moment I completely forgot about is probably the moment that started the Empire Kids(/Empire Siblings) i think, cause it’s the first time they refer to themselves as Empire Kids and their attitudes towards it
Beau at this point has said more than once how critical she is of the Empire and how unfair she think it is
Caleb has already dodged more than once his opinion of it when asked, cause he specifically knows from “inside” how currupt and unfair it is, but especially how dangerous they are, and also he hasn’t really smiled or laughed or made jokes about much up until this point,
But here he sarcastically smile cause he knows critiquing the empire and saying how shitty it is and the notion of going against it is practically impossible and will only most likely get you killed or locked away forever
And it’s an even better scene with foresight, cause caleb is challenging the notion beau or anyone could change it, but they and the Nein and the Cobalt Soul in the future will actually change it, will end(most part) of a war against the Dynasty, will lock away (even if just for some time) some of the most powerful wizards of the Assembly, will prevent a calamity sized danger from ever coming to this plane, will work tiredly day in and out to root out corruption and teach the new generation to question those in power and the ramifications of their own power
They will do something about it :,)
