Jeanne Gar. I don't recall whether we were properly introduced.

[nothingsodivine]

We weren't. Your blonde friend was too busy threatening to blow out my kneecaps.

[rationalizes]

Ah ... yes. Sometimes her [oh what's the word] enthusiasm gets the best of her. She was merely concerned that you weren't to be trusted.

[nothingsodivine]

Next time tell her that a sure-fire way to make a potential ally into someone who ain't to be trusted is to threaten to cap him.

[rationalizes]

I'll be certain to speak with her on the subject.

So you do consider us potential allies, then?

[nothingsodivine]

I consider Wynn to be a stand-up guy, so that means his people are decent enough. That doesn't mean I think he's always got the right idea.

[rationalizes]

I hope you don't honestly believe that he would abuse this sort of artifact.

[nothingsodivine]

No, but this isn't an artifact- it's a girl. And she doesn't deserve to be treated like anything less than that. You could give her a mansion in Paris and it would still be a prison for her.

[rationalizes]

We certainly have no interest in... in detaining anyone, so to speak. And it's possible she knows nothing at all about the Talisman, in which case we'd simply like to make certain she's safe from those who think that she does.

[nothingsodivine]

Look, lady, as long as the three of us reach a compromise on this, I'm happy.

[rationalizes]

I'm glad we see eye to eye on that at least.

I expect I'll be hearing more from you, to make certain the girl makes it back alright, then.

[nothingsodivine]

Oh, I'm sure you will, whether I want to or not.

[rationalizes]

I'm afraid so, though I do apologize if we've dragged you into something you wished to have no part of again.

[nothingsodivine]

Believe me, I dragged myself into it. Kind of a glutton for punishment. [And a glutton for things going his way.]

[rationalizes]

Some of us are just drawn to adventure, I suppose.
