You know, I really only meant to complain about him to you. Why does he dress that way? He's like a parading peacock.

Oh so
honorable then, surely? The army was wrong.

[tochnyy]

you've learned exactly what he is. a preening peacock. i think it's considered fashionable in some circles?

they were, in the end. she saved us all

no, they did not see it as honorable

[buckkeep]

I never cared much for courtly fashions. Too many buckles and ties. Too little room for extra pockets.

( extra pockets for poison and knives and other fun things a man (assassin) needs to keep on him at all times. )

A man must choose for himself what is honorable and not. It sounds like you were right.

[tochnyy]

i can't say i have either. a soldier's uniform was always easier, then something comfortable.

i'd like to think so
something i was willing to give everything for

[buckkeep]

There, you and I are in agreement. Though I'll never deny comfort.

You seem as though you've a good head on your shoulders, Malyen. You must always take care to do as it commands you, and then you'll never be wrong.

[tochnyy]

no? do you find comfort in itchy wool and too tailored coats? like nikolai's?

i fear it has lead me astray. i should have followed my heart.
