How does one go about contacting this...'Captain Redd'? I have a request to make of him.

[Zelda knows how, but she has very little intent to share this information.]

Many have requests to make of him. He does not address us, however. You would be with better to attempt requests of the crew.

So I have been told and will do.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

... Of course.

[3/3]

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

What are you planning?

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

That, Your Grace, is a surprise.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

...This really is not the time or place for 'surprises'.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

There is always time for surprises.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

I think you are mistaken. I also think that it is unlikely anyone will appreciate your definition of the word.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

You always think I have ill intent.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

You have yet to show me why I should think otherwise.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

But it does not make it any less hurtful that you always think so ill of me.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

[There's a pause.]

I am not so foolish as to believe that. The pain you put me through will always be greater than any pain you supposedly feel from my lack of trust for you.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

Tell then, Princess, what harm could I possibly do to you here?

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

That depends. What harm would you wish to do to me here?

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

None at all.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

I find that difficult to believe. Such righteous thoughts do not suit a man of manipulative means.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

How would I benefit from harming you? Here of all places? We both know there is nothing for me to gain from doing you harm.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

That you know of at this point in time. That can be changed. Nothing is ever constant. You, of all people, should be aware of that.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

Have I ever caused you personal, physical harm?

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

...Not physical harm, no.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

Then you have no reason to believe I will do so now.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

No. I believe I have plenty of reason. You do not have my vote of confidence.

[destinedtorule.livejournal.com]

Or perhaps you think too highly of yourself.

[oblique-wisdom.livejournal.com]

......!

I... never... ...
I do not.
