That's something you can train to be, is it?

[Not something he'd known, that. Though the question comes as light and remote as everything else he says, as though his interest is a distant thing, oddly muted. And he does lead them through this dance, never mind that - despite appearances - he's not so different from she when it comes to allowing others to take control. Abdication of agency is something hammered down so deep into his bones that it's doubtful he'll ever truly shake free of it. Doesn't want to, besides.

But he does a good enough job of looking like someone who's cool and in control, laughs soft and low when her question comes. His answer, though, may give some hint of his true leanings.]


I suppose you could say I'm still working that out. Spare time was somewhat hard to come by, you see, until recently.

[It's why he takes on more shifts with the Guard than is strictly necessary. Why he needs to be told to take time off, rather than longing for it, as most do.]

[He seems pleased that she's willing.]

Let me know the days, and I can work around it. My schedule is not always as inflexible as one might imagine.

Of course. I'd have to be a fool to not utilize it.

[Much faster than flying, for certain.]

Especially to see you achieve yet another victory.

[ He wishes he didn't have an answer for her. He wishes he could say 'I don't know'. ]

People might have hurt my parents, the ones who raised me. People would have treated me different, tried to hurt me or kill me just because of it. I would have had to either fight or hide, every day of my life.

This way, I only have to hide a part of me. Not the whole thing. At least, most of the time.

[ He can't help but reach out at that, trying to put his hand on her arm. Gentle. Appreciative. He'll pull back if it seems she'd prefer he didn't.]

I appreciate that, I really do. I don't think it should be necessary, but I do appreciate it.

And I'm... still in the midst of figuring out what I want to do, honestly. I've noticed the same.

But you can't put the cat back in the bag, as they say.

[ He ducks his head a little but after a moment, he nods. ]

I'd like that.

I'm only just now learning how to fight, but if you don't mind being patient with me...

I'm never one to turn down lessons.

[ But he can't help the lopsided grin to that.]

Though I'm also learning from Diana and another friend. Is that a problem?
