"Oh, that sounds lovely. I can't imagine how happy you make her, I bet you're a great parent."

[u]Oh thank you. I try to be the best mother I can for her. I didn’t really know what I was getting into at first, but it’s become easier.[/u] *She smiled as she spoke.* [u]I think she would like you.[/u]
-
"You think so? Thanks. I've always been a kid sort of person, but of course I've never come close to having my own."
-
[u]I didn’t think I was a kid sort of person, then Mari came along and changed that.[/u]
-
"Hmm. How did you end up adopting her anyway?"
-
[u]She and her older brother moved to the Dojo after their family had been killed. I had recently befriended her brother when I found her terrified and hiding outside... He had been murdered and she was the only one of her family left alive... So, I made a promise that I would protect her and took her home. The rest is history.[/u] *Her smile had faded as she recalled what Mari had gone through.* [u]She’s gone through too much, really... But she’s strong, and she’s happy.[/u]
-
"Oh..that sounds terrible." Silver sighed, before leaning over and resting a hand on Sapphire's. "At least you're making her happy now."
-
*She nods, taking Silvers’s and and smiling a little.* [u]Yeah.[/u]
-
Silver sat back in her seat again. "I find it really amazing how selfless you were to do such a thing."
-
[u]Thank you. I guess it does come back to what I did in the Sphirin navy, protect the innocent.[/u] *She opened her menu, scanning over the different options.*
-
Silver went over the menu as well. "Navy? You were in a navy of some kind?"
-
Edited by Skatch142: 1/6/2018 9:04:58 PM*She nodded.* [u]Not a navy like the kind most imagine here, space ships instead of water ships. Our job was also to prevent or end war and to defend civilians, rather than actually fighting wars.[/u]
-
"Oh, okay. That sounds neat. I've never been on a spaceship myself."
-
[u]It’s pretty boring really. Not much to do on one.[/u]
-
"Really? I thought the idea of being in space would be sweet. To see the stars up close..."
-
[u]It is at first, but it gets boring after a while. What’s more interesting though are the alien worlds.[/u]
-
"Oh? I've been to plenty of alien worlds. They're a lot of fun, so many adventures!"
-
[u]Well, I was mainly there to fight, but they were quite nice when we weren’t in combat.[/u]
-
"Oh, I never got into too much conflict. I'm not a soldier afterall." She shrugged.
-
*She nodded.* [u]Why were those men attacking you, anyway?[/u]
-
She shrugged again. "I don't know. I think they thought they could make some money off of me or something."
-
[u]Well, that isn’t gonna happen as long as I’m around.[/u]
-
"Or they wanted....pleasure. I think word is getting around about me, a girl able to give people happiness and pleasure."
-
*She raised an eyebrow.* [u]You can do that?[/u]
-
"Umm..in a few ways. Like, I can let people relive their happiest memories or make certain lewd activities far better than normal....It's nice, but the attention I think is getting bad."
-
[u]Hmm... I guess it’s good that I have one of these then.[/u] *She handed Silver a small controller-like device with a button.* [u]My armor has a mental link to me, hit that button and it’ll alert my armor and alert me. It’ll pinpoint your location so I can find you.[/u]
