Yep. She'd be the good one, together with her wife, her husband, and her son.

[He has no opinion on the other children, but heard enough to feel assured that once Neeka DOES let go, things are probably going to be fine? That is relevant to his interests, of course.]

Neeka's come a long way. She may not be out there the way some of her other blade mates are, but everyone forgets that you don't HAVE to be out there in order to get shit done.

[ It's a true enough statement, and one that he can agree on. ]

Well, sir. There's always more than one battlefield. Better to pick where you're best needed, I suppose.

Especially if you're not good enough to be good at them all.

[Arrogant? Yes, and he has a damned good reason to be. He's the Malice King that isn't a god, but might as well be one. And everyone knows it.]

[Smirking now, because he likes it when he meets somebody that sees him for what he is, and knows how to pass judgment properly. Too many people are too stupid, too easily caught up in their emotions, their petty concerns.]

Anyway. Rhiannon will be interesting for you. Good luck for when you do make it with them.

[Since he is sure that you will.]

Thank you, sir. [ He is really, really humbled by that. Because Jessiah Vice said 'when' not 'if'. ]

I'll do my very best.
