[ A nasty habit is one way of putting it, but in Thancred's defense, what else was he supposed to do when Meteion appeared on the Ragnarok and sucked the very air from the cabin? He hadn't fully realized what he was doing until it was done, with dynamis taking his will and turning it into reality.
All's well that ends well, at least. They're both still here.
Thankfully, Himeka lets him off easy, and Thancred is quick to nod. ]
Aye, I think it suits me a bit better as well. I also have met with Nott's ruler before, one Lyle Vela, and he is open to harboring any Summoned who are not in the good graces of the crown.
[ Of course, that crown is now upon a different head entirely, but Thancred can't say he's eager to return to the castle either way. ]
[ They are all willing to put their lives on the line for the work the day. But when it comes down to it, seeing the people you care about fulfill that potentiality is hard. It's scary. The amount of times they barely make through it alive make it seem like they always will.
Himeka hopes that still holds. She believes in them.
She knew that Thancred has been making moves in Nott for a while, but for for the leader to making it a sanctuary for the Summoned? That is big news. ]
He is? That's wonderful. And you don't think the monarchy would try to follow up on that?
[ She remembers now Anastasia turned her and Estinien over to the King and Queen, but she does understand that politics are a little different in Nott. ]
[ It's a good question, yet Thancred does not have a good answer. He pauses for a moment, then heaves out a sigh and gives a shake of his head. ]
It's difficult to say. I don't know as much about Sidwell as I would like, not enough to hazard a guess as to how he'll rule. For now, the best thing we can do is keep our heads down.
[ And maybe they'll get lucky, and Sidwell will have a list of greater priorities than chasing down a few stray Summoned.
It would be a stretch to say he'll be better than Queen Ellya, but he might have different goals, if nothing else. ]
