*He snapped his fingers.* ^The training facility was part of the act, but if you actually want to know how to get there I can show you. But no, I was talking about my abilities and services.^

[i]Talking right now about things probably wasn’t the best... she wasn’t quite alright even after she’d discussed it with Alice, but Alice hadn’t seemed to grasp the full scope of what she was guilty of. Maybe that was just how these things worked... you suffered alone and nobody would really understand it. Rachael huffed, trying to drive those thoughts away.[/i]

^You don’t have to suffer alone, y’know. That’s not the way it works with me. If you don’t want to though, you don’t have to.^

[i]Yeah? Well maybe it was better that way. That was what she’d been taught by Maelstrom and Roland... internalize suffering and don’t show pain. She’d had that beaten into her so many times she couldn’t help it.[/i]

^My cousin tried the same thing. She’s a six foot tall tiger who could lift me up with one hand. Lords, she was a mess when she tried to deal with her pain and regret on her own... I’m not forcing you into anything, it’s just an offer. Now, let’s get you to the training facility.^ *He began to lead her toward a large building in the distance.*

[i]She followed, set for the time being in her ways. She did not want to get into this now.[/i]

*He remained silent as he lead her, respecting Rachael’s decision. He still held her wrist though in case she wanted to talk about something else.*
