[ puts a paw down sadly, oocly. but up again for the week after if we survive that long ]

Ah.

Definitely. You've gotta do some digging to get the good info, right?

[disestablishment]

[ you slut ]

'Tis been some time since I've done proper reconnaissance, so it is a welcome change of pace.

[chevaliered]

[ what did you say to me, binch? ]

A little reconnaissance never hurts. Flow of information’s an important advantage.

[ binch ]

This reminds me. I had descried your profile when they first appeared—you're a soldier?

[chevaliered]

…. Mmmm. Not quite. Military academy trained, but a lot of Thors alumni don’t actually join the military when they graduate. Just graduating has enough clout to open doors for you elsewhere.

[disestablishment]

I see... How prestigious and fortunate.

Then what does that leave you, Crow?

[chevaliered]

Well... currently I guess I'm unemployed. Contract with a, uh, private firm just ended so I'm helping out some friends with something for the moment.

[disestablishment]

So a sellsword... I've heard 'tis a freeing occupation.

[chevaliered]

[ he wobbles a hand. ]

Not really sure that’s what they call it. I’m not a jaegar, or anything like that.

[disestablishment]

An interesting name for mercenary... Stylized, I daresay.

[chevaliered]

Connotations. Most people go to Bracers, y’know? It’s their job to help out the people. Jaegars have more of a negative context. They take on any job, regardless of morality and don’t tend to hold much loyalty to anyone but their corps.

Not that they’re bad people or anything. They just do what they have to.

[ He doesn't seem affronted by any of this, really. ]

Aye, whatever they must to make a living. If it puts coin on the table and feeds their family, 'twould be worth.

[chevaliered]

Literally. A lot of them come from an area that... got pretty devastated a while ago. Jaegar work was all they really had.

[disestablishment]

That is unfortunate... I wish for there to be opportunities to arise where they can choose another life if they so desire.

But it may be best and realistic to be grateful that they found a source of income and there are those that will keep them employed.

[chevaliered]

...

Hmm. Not all of them might agree with you. Jaegars have been drafted into some nasty shit recently.

[disestablishment]

Never did I say it is a life they should lead. In the end, I can only wish them well.

[ Because... He can't do anything, so... ]

What of their assignments?

[chevaliered]

Whatever they're paid to do.

[disestablishment]

[ thanks crow

Aymeric merely grows quiet at that because he does understand it. Can be super bad! Nasty shit! ]

[chevaliered]

[ it sure can m’dude. thank you for understanding. ]
