"It's also ruder to ignore people who are legitimately trying to help." Jack told Cynea. "I owe her throne no allegiance and her misguided belief that I have reason to bend my knee to her is nothing short of childish and rude at worst." He looked at her. "And it's also rude to subjugate people under threat of death."

Stormer shook his head while sighing at Jack. "Seriously, do you have any respect for authority at all, Jack? That was rude."
He then turned to the maid. "A glass of water, please."

"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015"Grimace or make yourself known, but good lord, you're in someone's home. If my mom had been in the room she would of flung you into the wall, and my brother would of helped. She would of flung me into the wall if I had done the same, she would of just slapped my sister because she bounces but still, social standing or not it's just decent manners to respect a person in their personal domain. Plus, five people were talking to her at once, I'm sure she's had practice, but that's hard to keep pace at."

Jack turned to Stormer. "I'm pretty sure you were-" Stormer wasn't. That was Dex. "Look, my family has never recognized any leader save those that have proven themselves. She has sat on a throne and sent good men and women to face her enemies, where is there anything to respect in that?" He turned to Lucas. "What?" He saw what Cynea had a point. Three people were yelling at him, kind of hard to follow.

Good to be backJack facepalmed with his metal hand. Ow. Which was driven into his face more by the maid. Ow. He looked at the Maid. "Really?" He said, before turning to Lucas. "We need to tell the others about this." He said, before turning to Cynea. "My culture. Your culture."

Good to be backStormer then turned to Glen. "I guess it is best if your relatives didn't come here. They'd be tried for treason for sure."
"Never let anyone tell you that something is impossible." - Monty Oum, 1981-2015Glen isn't smart if you haven't guessed by now
"Wasn't plannin' on gettin' up anyways." Muttered Glen as he kept eating
Grinning at Cyanea, Glen stopped filling his gullet and said "Oh, aye it is. But you've got tae keep in mind that we're an emotional lot and we've somethin' o a history fightin' with the Southron military. Old wounds heal slow, you ken?"
To Stormer, Glen chuckled "You seem tae be under the impression they'd let themselves be captured"

Royal Palace, 3rd Floor
Instead of replying, Pius quickly walked up to the same level as Weiss and searched for her Aura. After finding her in a few seconds, the Nobel spoke again once he had sneaked up behind his shorter friend.
"Humans are morons, that's what's wrong," he grumbled.

"You apologize! Apologize or I'll rip your stupid head off!" screamed the maid. Wooow.
Then, Candor's voice, heard only by Jack and Lucas.
Try it and I will make your primitive life a living hell. I can't kill you, but I can make you relive a loop of time. For eternity.
Weiss
Weiss rolled her eyes. "What took you so long to figure it out? What happened?"
A smirk. "Got mercilessly rejected by Lexi?"

"It's much more common sense than culture, even if you don't respect her or her position, respect that she is Alexia's mother and if you like or respect her at all you should give the woman who birthed her some basic courtesy."
And pausing she found that they had in fact gotten off track,
"Yeah, we should,"
Cyanea paused and set her plate down in front of Glen, since she figured than it wouldn't go to waste,
"I'll go tell the girls, they probably won't answer their scrolls while changing after all."
She paused and turned to the raging maid and held up her hand,
"Excuse me, if it's not too much trouble, could you please direct me to where the princess Alexia and her other guests are acquiring their evening wear for the ball?"

Ball Prep
Francesca looked at all the students present. "I know a few of you had an altercation with... with World." She said with a sigh, unwilling to ever call that thing her father. "I've sparred with him many times in the past, our combat forms should still be the same. I can give you the rundown on what to expect from him. Speed and power? No clue." She said with a shrug. And then the maid slapped Jack across the face. "Watch your tongue, Jackie." She said with a sigh.
Ieria nodded to the maid. "Please calm down ma'am. He is rather caustic." She warned her. Then she turned to Jack. "Jack apologize, please." She asked as sweet as she could, while maintaining her emotionless persona.

Dining Room
"That's good,"
Cyanea smiled and kept a good face until the queen was fully out of the room. Than she turned around and tried to flick Jack in the head, but instead used it as a feint so she could step forward and slam her foot into his foot on top of his. Mind you, it wasn't very hard since she still wasn't wearing shoes, but there was weight on that. She said very quietly,
"I don't know what beef you have with her, but it is just plain rude to flip people off when you are in their home eating off of their plates."
