  1. [23:19] The roll of Violet's eyes were slow and heavy, as Saga asked for a way for Lucien to live. The Vartuul eventually just scoffed outright.
  2.  
  3. "No." She said at once. Amethyst gaze narrowed immediately. "He's an idiot, plain and simple. He dies. Most of the people I went to school with have already died."
  4. (Violet Vartuul)
  5. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  6.  
  7. [23:20] It's all against her better judgement- the mercantile judgement that held her tongue still and kept her out of this kind of nonsense- that Katrin approaches with a clenched jaw. Her slit pupils scan between Saga and Violent.
  8.  
  9. And she opens that gods-damned mouth of hers.
  10.  
  11. "This sounds an awful lot like bullshit. Dragonlord. Are you really talkin' about killing someone for petty insults? That what I'm hearing?"
  12. (Katrin)
  13. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  14.  
  15. [23:22] Violet Vartuul says, "First off."
  16. [23:22] Violet Vartuul asks, "Who the F*** are you?"
  17. [23:22] Violet Vartuul says, "Second off, it's more than that."
  18. [23:22] Violet Vartuul says, "Third off, mind your business."
  19. [23:22] Katrin says, "Kay. Real charmed. Super charmed."
  20. [23:23] Trife says, "She's been that way since school..."
  21. [23:23] Katrin says, "And if you wanted this to be private, I dunno. Maybe don't go shoutin' about your fragile ego in a square, ma'am."
  22. [23:23] Katrin says, "All due respect."
  23. [23:23] Cortado Pelleaux says, "Ol' Klebold's at it again."
  24. [23:24] Cortado Pelleaux asks, "Don't you have a school of your underclassmen to stab, Violet?"
  25. [23:26] Saga wasn't shocked by the answer....she was shocked by how abrupt it came.
  26.  
  27. She really WAS high strong.
  28.  
  29. "Nothing at all?"
  30.  
  31. She had to think of something, something useful that she could pro--
  32.  
  33. "What if, what if I come up with a solution to your...*injury*"
  34.  
  35. The way that the others spoke to her, was this really what Violet was about. Killing someone over something this trivial. All that mattered was that it wasn't trivial to Violet, but there had to be something more than that... she was a complex person, there was no way that anyone could be so one dimensional.
  36.  
  37. "I've been told about the Triumvirate and Garjling from the Vanirhallan perspective, but if you say that this is heretical, then what *is* Garjling like? What does he represent in the Fireblooded Faith?"
  38. (Sága)
  39. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  40.  
  41. [23:27] Violet sighed and went to grab the spear off her back, ignoring Saga for the moment to turn upon Katrin fully.
  42.  
  43. "You have three seconds to leave my sight, or else I'm going to stab you." She said plainly.
  44. (Violet Vartuul)
  45. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  46.  
  47. [23:29] Katrin stares at the spear. Her look of disappointment remains. Then is joined with another expression.
  48.  
  49. An absolutely shit-eating grin.
  50.  
  51. "The mighty Dragonlord. Turnin' on a blacksmith just for speaking up in a public space?" The Drakan artificer puts a hand over her heart, feigning a great wound- one which actually might become reality in mere moments. Alas. Her impetuousness has already dug her into a hole.
  52.  
  53. "I just really don't know what to do. Beside myself, honestly."
  54. (Katrin)
  55. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  56.  
  57. [23:30] Cortado got up from his seat and strode toward the group of them, and looked toward Violet exclusively, since she was the aggressor here.
  58.  
  59. "...Gonna need to you simmer down, there, Violet.
  60.  
  61. You're threatening people in Osrona... not up on your mountain top. If you don't quit acting like a moron, I'm going to have to throw you out."
  62. (Cortado Pelleaux)
  63. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  64.  
  65. [23:36] She waved a hand towards Katrin.
  66.  
  67. "Then tell your people to stop coming and insulting people," She said plainly before turning back to Saga proper. "I don't need you to come up with a solution to my injury, because there is no solution for it." Violet added with a shake of her head.
  68.  
  69. Truthfully, she was already annoyed by Lucien earlier and now this.
  70.  
  71. "Garljing is a son of Ryujin himself. He rests at the peak of the Tarian mountains. He respects strength and ambition, like any dragon. We pay tribute to him accordingly." She shrugged, knowing very well what the Vanirhallan worship Garljign to be.
  72.  
  73. But she'd never say it.
  74.  
  75. "He was never a human." She insisted, instead.
  76. (Violet Vartuul)
  77. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  78.  
  79. [23:37] Katrin says, "I ain't anyone's people, for the record- though I do appreciate you bein' civil, Lord Pelleaux."
  80. [23:37] Trife says, "Time for rest."
  81. [23:37] Trife zoops.
  82. (Trife)
  83. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  84.  
  85. [23:38] Cortado blinked at Violet. Was she really so neurotic as to believe that an insult is a reason to threaten to kill people?
  86.  
  87. "...Just stop threatening people, Violet. This isn't the place for it. Not even if they upset you."
  88.  
  89. He didn't mind being civil even if he was trying to bring down the law. Especially since he'd known the Dragonlord for quite some time, even if their actual relationship was tenuous at best.
  90.  
  91. "Direct your anger at people who are actually your enemies. Please."
  92.  
  93. He looked toward Katrin,
  94.  
  95. "It's in the job description. Don't worry about it."
  96. (Cortado Pelleaux)
  97. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  98.  
  99. [23:39] * You have been awarded 1 Roleplay Points! *
  100. [23:39] Katrin says, "Still. It's appreciated. Civility can be hard to come by in my line of work."
  101. [23:39] Katrin says, "Credit where it's due."
  102. [23:50] "Well...why do the faiths differ so greatly?"
  103. (Sága)
  104. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  105.  
  106. [23:50] Violet Vartuul says, "I couldn't tell you that."
  107. [23:52] It crosses her mind to open her mouth again as Katrin tucks her hands into her pockets. She glances over to Saga as she continues her line of inquiry and lightly shakes her head. Miracle of miracles, nothing else snide leaves her proverbial forked tongue.
  108.  
  109. "Money ain't make itself. If you'll 'scuse me. Lots to make and only so much time."
  110.  
  111. She turns on her heel and starts west. Unless there happened to be something else to keep her here.
  112. (Katrin)
