Hathor: I'm a noblewoman, myself. There's nothing really stopping me from going back to my old life, but... hm. I suppose I simply find this way of life interesting.
Lisa: Yeah, I know how you feel. Definitely felt like I didn't want to be here a few days ago.
-is chopping up some vegetables,getting some rice, and el sushoroni ready-
Hathor: Both, I suppose. Seeing the world is obviously an interesting experience, but combat is something I never really experienced at all before joining this group.
Lisa: I'll be honest, I wasn't keen on working for someone who disrespects me so much. I wanted to stand up for myself, and say that I wasn't going to be a part of any of this, but I couldn't. I can't help but wonder if some people would consider that spineless.
Asagi: Hmmmm.
You know, I've been the person who usually represents everyone here when a representative body wants someone to yell at, since nobody really has the patience for it. Not even Six, for his responsibility, and Omar is barely getting back into it.
I can tell you for a fact that on some level, most of the people who hire us don't hold any respect for people like us beyond our value as pawns or muscle. It's not fun at all, but it's how the worlds operate.
Zack: Hmmmm...I see. We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)
Lisa: That's true to some degree, but I don't think I can agree entirely. I don't think we've ever really been in the situation we're in right now. Sure, in the end the only reason we do these jobs is for money, and the only reason people give these jobs is because they need something done in exchange, but we have never really been in a situation where were we cannot respect each other to the point that we actively work against that person.
The other thing is, I've done missions where I've assassinated people because they were bad people and the ends justified the means, or however you want to put it. But lately I've been feeling more... sentimental. The thought of taking a life weighs heavier on me than it used to. I know it's going to be for the good of this country that someone else is put in power, but.... no, I guess it doesn't matter. We've decided what we're going to do already.
Hathor: Do you happen to be skilled at combat? It's not a necessity, but it will help greatly if you wish to travel with us.
Asagi: Hmmmm...
-She takes a bite out of some food and chews on it-
...How exactly do you know that putting someone else in charge is going to actually make it better?
Zack: ...I'm not sure. I've...never had to do too much fighting before... We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)
Asagi: >.>
The trick to being a good diplomat is playing along up until the moment when you're out of sight, and then looking to gain any advantage when they assume you're as easy to read as they think you are.
Zack: ...I'm Zack. Zachary Stardust. We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)
Asagi: Well, that's because you're normal. You wouldn't be thinking of pretending to leave only to go invisible and spying on the meeting, you'd be looking at ways to pay back insult in kind.
Zack: Um, yeah, that is easier to say, I suppose... We Are Our Avatars Forever (Now on Discord by invitation, PM)

Lisa: She's like a cute little puppy.
So what do you want to eat?
Hathor: ...Yeah, I can't really argue with that.
