[PM sounds like he's had to refute this idea before, and maybe the line that anna's found is one she shouldn't have crossed. but he talks her through his protests very civilly, in a way that she can understand, and in a way that doesn't... immediately sound like she's offended him. so she's more than okay with just leaning back a little more and removing that whole concept from her mind.]
[she does suppose he has a point about long-lived empires leaving their worst crimes out in the open. her own only made it about 250, maybe 300 years tops before the kindly prince took it out.]
You know, the more you tell me about him, the more he starts sounding like the last guy I knew who made such a big fuss about God. Wonder if he's got some rebellious dyke of a daughter who fell in love with a mysterious woman who taught her how to live, too. [pause for laugh.] Man. I don't even wanna think about this bastard having sex. I'm sorry I brought that one up. But he sounds like a total fucking control freak.
[she leans in just a little more, resting her elbow on the table and letting her wrist hang limply. it's like she's sharing just a tiny little secret with him.]
Tell you what, dude, I would've been ready to kick his ass just from all that stuff you just told me. Even if he weren't some self-made emperor, some jackasses just deserve to get their shit handed to them.
