"I learn fast," he smirked, aware that she may have been mocking him.

"So you're on this island? What was the school thinking, introducing a horde of mercs onto a place where there are children about?" Kethry asked.

Roy grimaced even as he was surprised hearing this remark coming from her. "I don't think it was the school's decision. Frankly, I don't know whose decision it was but I'm not all too impressed," he gave her an apologetic look. "Nothing personal."

Re: Audience Mingling

She shrugged though looked slightly amused. "Don't worry. I've decided our Captain sent us here as a joke."

Re: Audience Mingling

He couldn't quite help chuckling. "It's not your thing then?"

Re: Audience Mingling

[oathboundmercs.livejournal.com]

The look Kethry gave him spoke volumes. "It's not my thing. I'm a mage. We fight in a bonded company."

Re: Audience Mingling

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He raised an eyebrow for a moment, unable to help himself. "Perhaps he hoped to draw some more people to your... company."

Re: Audience Mingling

[oathboundmercs.livejournal.com]

"She," Kethry replied immediately. "And no. We don't recruit like this. People who are good enough find us."

Re: Audience Mingling

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

"Ah," he nodded slowly. "Must be a joke then. At least you got chance to taste the island's coffee?"

Re: Audience Mingling

[oathboundmercs.livejournal.com]

She shook her head, watching him. "What are you? Regular military?"

Re: Audience Mingling

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

Roy laughed. "Are only military forces allowed to enjoy coffee? Personally, I prefer whiskey but it's too early for that."

Re: Audience Mingling

"No, the look in your eye," Kethry said

Re: Audience Mingling

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He tilted his head back to watch her. "What look is that?"

Re: Audience Mingling

[oathboundmercs.livejournal.com]

"The one that says 'I'm a soldier, but at least I don't fight for pay,'" Kethry told him. "Just about all regular soldiers think that way about mercs." She shrugged.

He glanced back at the stage for a moment. "It's not about money but loyalties," he clarified.

Re: Audience Mingling

[oathboundmercs.livejournal.com]

"And you think it's less honourable to give loyalties to a captain than to a country?"

Re: Audience Mingling

[light-a-spark.livejournal.com]

He let out a breath and shook his head. "I'd hope not," he said honestly. "But there's a worry that if someone fighting alongside you is fighting for a different thing like money that the next day they'll turn against you if someone pays them more."

Re: Audience Mingling

Kethry shook her head. "We don't work that way. Our Captain picks our jobs, signs a contract, and we stay on that side for the length of the contract. If the terms are breached by the other party, we leave the battle field."
