Someone like me speaking their mind a lot may not know the appropriate times when it's best to be silent. My mouth's gotten me into a fair amount of trouble.
[Mostly because she can't bear to let injustices slide. Or at least, what counts per her own somewhat flexible way of thinking.]
That said, I enjoy listening to you. I also greatly appreciate anything I can learn about you, or any knowledge you desire to share about matters at hand.
Up until the past two years or so, I've only ever had my brother to talk to. Much of the world still feels so novel to me.
Oh, mine has been known to do much the same, every now and then.
[There are plenty of cheeky remarks that might have been better off left unsaid that he simply couldn't help but make, to his detriment.]
The world is quite vast, even to those of us who are not so new to it. With it holding such a sense of novelty for you, it's no wonder you've taken to the adventurer life as well as you have, though I realize our uninvited guests have made doing so a necessity.
As much as it's important to be cautious using these worms, they do make things a little easier in some situations.
Ten years of practice sure helps, although, it's not so hard now that it's not just my brother and I. I'm not the one carrying all of the non-magic weight. This is just the second adventure out of necessity. And here I thought I'd get more than two years to relax and try to learn more about who I am as a person. Alas.
Regardless, if you happen to hit a sour note with your commentary with me, I will openly admit that I'm quick to forgive. Life's too short to hold grudges over small things. And with this pressure and the life we lead, we don't know how short or long that's going to be.
[Hopefully, if she does turn into a mindflayer, it's still burdened with the debt she's already accrued on her lifespan. A mindflayer that doesn't live as long as has less time to hurt others.]
But I take my job as a guard dog very seriously, I promise.
[She hasn't figured out any other way to be. Not yet, anyway.]
