Her stance would shift if only slightly, he had sat back upon his haunches, having enough faith in her word and she would return it. Her stance relaxed, head lowering to not be quite so vicious. She was not here to start a mindless war, she was not here to upset the balance, she was here because Tortuga wasn't safe. they were, quite possibly the most hated pack within Alacritis at the moment. The tides could turn, would turn and the entire pack would be annihilated at the drop of a hat. Valhalla was biting at the bit for a chance to put Tortuga in its place. Desdemona wanted a family, a home, a life of peace, she was tired of fighting, tired of war... but the way such things were being handled, she could not seem them resolving, because nothing was being done. His words did not ease her mind. He spoke down to her, insinuating that he and Morphine would solve everything. If anything it would make the ivory dame more uneasy and she would shake her massive dame. For a moment she stayed silent contemplating his words, considering them carefully and after a moment's hesitation she would sigh. Her eyes distant and aloof would meet his own. He would not answer her most basic question. He would hide the truth behind attempted reassurances that Morphine and he would handle it... but how? What had they had done to address these fears? Nothing. Actions spoke louder than words and she could not take him at his word. Not after having being witness to so many complacencies. "I do not speak to accuse you of stupidity nor lack of comprehension, I speak because you know, you understand these problems and yet you nor Morphine have done anything to assuage these fears, these threats. I do not understand your complacency, nor Morphine's. Neither one of you can seem to arrive at a decision, Valhalla has marked us as an enemy and neither one of you have extended an olive branch nor have you declared them an enemy in return. This indecision it only adds fuel to their fire it makes us look bad! What do you think the title of enemies brings? War is the next step and no matter what you think of Valhalla, they are a strong pack, they won't hesitate to bring an army upon us if they deem it necessary, I was once apart of them, I know. I do not speak of just Neo and Cyanide, I speak of the pack as a whole. It is viewed as cowardly and weak! This cannot continue and your continued speech to deny me an answer only furthers my unease. Confidence in you and in Morphine is unstable amongst most members. You tell us nothing, you do nothing and then expect us to follow you blindly. Help me to understand Kaien. Answer me, please. What do you intend to do?" She would give him one last chance, one last opportunity, she was not beyond reason, but she could not stay complacent, not with her family taking the risk. Speech, |
