"Also one of the more effective training methods, really. Works great to not get stuck on certain mistakes." Yeah, she's been there herself. "Sure, depends on the overall situation. It's best to make informed calls, but that's not always possible. The way I learned it, you make the decision as good as you can judging by what you know and then deal with the consequences, for good or for bad. Everything's better than avoiding a decision because you're too afraid to fuck up. And I mean everything." As Dad had always said, a guy who works makes mistakes, the guy who doesn't make mistakes also doesn't do any work. There's a simple truth in that she appreciates.
She nods as the Prince goes further into the trust thing.
"Sure, we need to be really careful who we trust with what, seeing whats on the line. But then, it's pretty much something a lot of folks crave, having folks they can be open with and who they can rely on to not stab them in the back. Even without the shit fangers can do to folks and each other, its a pretty hot mess, really."
Another nod.
"Agreed, it was pleasant." Way more than expected, really... Nice surprise for a change. "Sure, just let me know and I'll make some time, Ma'am."
No worries, that happens ! Great scene, thank you !
