glimmer is all too used to people using her for her looks. if someone is genuinely interested in her and treat her as if her thoughts, opinions, and values matter more than her tits, then that's a definite way to begin winningher heart. especially if someone values her intelligenceand sees her as someone who possesses that trait andalso values the other talents that she has to offer. generally,glimmer will only genuinely open herself up to someone who respects her as a person and takes her seriously; she'ssick to death of being treated like she's not worthy of r e s p e c t.

     She's almost too indifferent to that scrap of news to even respond, but ego wins out in the end -- of course she's right. It's not often she finds the time in recent years to assist her father in training up new recruits, but on occasion, she does. What better instructor can they have, after all, than a woman who has survived the arena? She knows first hand the expectations of a Victor and knows how often it is that the challenge of the arena causes skilled Career kids to throw their training out of the window. Who better to advise them than her? And it's what she's doing now -- watching them train; challenging their technique; giving the most promising a few moments of her time and a few personal pointers. Little point in wasting her time on any of the others.
