Only fools sacrifice themselves for a cause unto which they cannot speak nor comprehend, willing to toss bodies and morality upon the spitfire tendencies of war in hopes of garnering an inkling of knowledge. And yet they harbor surprise and mournful wails when their methods are perceived as maddening and fruitless, the corpses toll higher than the outcome. Do they have a right to mourn, she wonders-- an idle concept built upon humanity's greatest weakness; itself.
She makes no mention of it, however, coral petals of lips terse and flatlined as they pass the scope of her vision in the crowd. A buzz burns in the back of her skull to at least speak to those that she knows if only in a vicious camaraderie or in lingering militant respect.

It made everything so much easier.
Yet now she moves through the crowd previously noticed, steps slow but paced evenly enough that she collides her shoulder pointedly with the boy pariah she had conquered so many times before in hand to hand, a sneer falling upon her face. "Jaeger," she growls before her vision shifts to the shorter and sterner. "--Sir," comes her quick correction, though her eyes do not shift back to the irate rival.
