Don't you-

[Yup, she's already arguing about how she's got a point and has to choke on her words and pause.]

What's that now?

[keeperofmagi]

You're right.

[She sighed, looking down into her empty cup.]

It is a wisdom that I fear I have difficulty in following. As does the rest of the world. But one we're going to have to accept, if we're going to win this war.

[arsebiscuit]

Frig the war-

[And look her ale was full again. Thank you bar keep, for giving her a few seconds where she actually has to pause and hand out (way too much) gold again.]

It's life. Just lying bull to think by being all sneaky 'bout looking down on people you're getting along. Just means you're being even sneakier about punching down at them.

[keeperofmagi]

I just have no faith that we'll even manage it for a cause like this, let alone for life.

Look at the clan, for example. Their very lives are at stake, and yet they aren't willing to see outsiders as people, let alone equal.

[arsebiscuit]

They're shits!

[Watch out, there her arm goes swinging]

Not talking about them, am I? Mean Cass, and you and fate and Bull and...the not shits. We're the ones that make life suck for the shitty ones. 'Fate and I are natural born enemies' blah, blah, sounds like something Sparkly tits'd say. Frig it.

[She ducked from the arm, pulling back, and then watched Sera for a long second, before offering a small, but very warm, smile.]

The Not Shits. I like that.

[Though all it did was remind her of why exactly it didn't qualify.

What she would have to tell Cassandra, sooner or later.

But it didn't matter now.]

[arsebiscuit]

Good. Now drink up. Don't want to remember a single bitty titty of that stupid in the woods today, yeah? Not me or you.

[And to show she means it, she chugs a big mouthful of ale. And another. And another.]

[keeperofmagi]

Maker, no. [That's something she can completely agree on. She tosses a few more coins down for another ale, and then holds it up to Sera's mug.]

To people not being shit.
