He is... heart sick, I think. Lonely, perhaps, I cannot pretend to know his whole mind. But I know he misses his... lady.
from: attano.corvo@cdc.org
When he was ill, and near enough to death, he expressed such a wish to die to me. Not in so many words, but it is what he wants. We talked, and he refrained due to his concerns of the destruction of his home if he was to pass in such a way. However...
All I care for is he fulfilling my contract, as far as I see it, he is part of doing that.

If you prefer it more selfishly put; he is a far better fighter than I. As far as gain is concerned, what use is a soldier who has nothing to fight for and seeks to kill himself? It will do him good, keep his morale up, and that benefits not only myself but the team as a whole.

Are we not only as strong as the one standing next to us?

Do you require permission?

Usually. I am sure I will get the habit of informality eventually.

I wanted apologize for becoming incapacitated when I was assisting in hunting.

So long as you don't die in a stupid way, I can learn to forgive.

What's wrong with Wade?

Seems I tried my best.

Falling in love is the worst thing.
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
Worry all you want, though. It's not going to help either of you.
no subject
Do you believe that?
from: attano.corvo@cdc.org
Not that I can say I disagree, I'd call it a sickness if I didn't know better.
from: attano.corvo@cdc.org
Worrying will not, no. Besides, I made him a promise.

I wish to request him be allowed to see her, I was not sure if I was to put the request through your or another.

You're good with trading in whatever goodwill you've gotten built up for some guy you've only met here?
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
I should be worrying about you.
no subject
Why?

He is a friend to me, should I act otherwise?

There's trusting someone and then giving away things you might need for yourself because you LIKE someone.

You realize you're admitting to being a weak link in the chain to me, right.
no subject
It is weakness to know exactly what your skills are in comparison to those around so you may more correctly fight by their sides?

Anything else is arrogance that gets myself, and others around me, killed.

At least you're not stupid. Fair enough.

Get him on board your request. Or something. Get his consent. If I'm going to actively ensure someone's life here, I'm only doing it with fair trade.
no subject
I wouldn't go that far, I simply commanded long enough to know better.

Does it need to be explicitly stated as this, or may the agreement be... implied?
no subject
FROM: dagger@cdc.org
Implied works well enough. As long as it's a yes. CDC rules, you know.
no subject
Understood.

Thank you, I'll take up no more of your time.
