Again, I apologise. I regret that I got on the wrong foot with you and your family.

You are aware that those words do very little?

Perhaps if you had realized your error the first or second time you were told, rather than, oh, what?, the tenth?

What can I do to make amends with you?

Shutting up would be a good start.

Learning to get the full story before you start blabbing about how something is one way or another next time would also be good.

*nods* I seek the full story by questioning. I should have used restraint.

Though you apparently don't listen to the answer.

I listen to the answer, but I also watch for what isn't being said, as well.

Or you just pretend something isn't being said even when you are being told the simple truth.

I was hearing something I wasn't.

Hearings voices that aren't there is usually a bad sign. Especially when they're saying very untrue things.

You're right, it is. I'll take my leave now. I am sorry I did wrong to your family and this will be corrected. *disappears*

You're aware that getting off on the wrong foot with a Markus is like bleeding near a vampire?

Yes, I understand that. *nods* It was a great error I caused on you.

I'm curious, not that I'm a practitioner but: What the hell happened to Think before you speak?

I'm honestly not sure.

Go and learn it, babe.

Honesty? I know honesty!

So you honestly know that you're an idiot and that cornering New Girl like that was bad?

I was being an idiot. It was bad. My timing was off. I'm not...I needed to pull myself together before getting involved.

It's amazing how people think "My bad" will erase things.

If you ever talk down to one of my clan again, I promise you won't ever say another thing again.

"That happens. The best thing to do is ignore them."

Perhaps Bella should actually take her own advice once in a while...

Assumptions suck.

She assumed that my family needed a healer, even though we have gotten along without Miss Yuna for ten years and are all quite trained in medic needs. And she seemed to imply that I had.. other.. reasons for keeping Miss Yuna around!

*is obviously furious at this point, rather worked up*

Ahhh.

Well, she doesn't know you. You can't take that stuff to heart.

She most certainly doesn't, which is why she should not be saying it.

Very true.

I happily admit that I need someone to take care of me. I could not survive on my own.

But to suggest that my family needs an outsider..

Is a heavy blow to your pride, especially if it's not true, I know.
*nods*

I hate it when people do that. They're almost always wrong and almost always self-righteous about it too.

Yes, they are!

Annoying. *makes a face, sympathetic*

Something's got you in a terrible mood, Grove.

No? Really?

*is just snappy at this point*

A woman just said that the Markus clan obviously needed Miss Yuna. After repeated attempts to inform her otherwise, she implied that I had other reasons for keeping her around, then.

I think that warrants a bad mood!

Keeping her around? She stays of her own accord.

Though we do love her.
