He hadn't expected the question and the surprise shows on his face for a moment before he's shrugging. Most people would gladly skip to a happier topic and ignore the thought of anything actually happening to mages. Ignorance was their bliss and mage suffering, after all. It's why he'd had to take such drastic action - everyone would rather not care.

"It was. And I was one of the lucky ones. I'll grant there were Circles better than mine, but there were Circles that were worse, too." There's a beat as he plays with his spoon, glancing down at it before back up to her. "I'm not used to someone who isn't a mage giving a care, so I don't know if you want to hear more or leave it at that."

It used to be that he'd preach at the drop of a hat, or even without that, but he's both tired and trying to keep a lower profile for now. Breaking into a rant about how he'd seen so many mistreated would draw notice and increase the risk of Justice showing up. Moderation is the only way he'll stay alive, though it's difficult.
