She nodded.<br/>"Yes, I am very good at blocking mental commands. That is what my uncle was  good  at  doing. He had me in his  control for a while, but  in the back of my mind I knew  that I didn't like being used  in that  way. I had  to get away from him, so I snuck around trying to make sure I could get away from him. Then I traveled  to find somewhere  that people would help me. But..well..at  first  I had  trouble finding people who wouldn't attack me because  I was a black dragon. I didn't find anyone until I disguised myself as an elf. It  seemed someone there  saw though it, but...even  then  they did not judge me. It was like my home, and  I met my adopted  mother and father. My adopted  mother  taught me how to protect myself from my uncle."<br/>"Oh...I see port is left, and starboard is right...but..we aren't on a ship how is that important?"<br/>She was rather  confused of why he mentioned it  really. Lucky for you, she wasn't emphatic so she had no idea you were feeling frustrated, she only knew how to see your outward facial features and  that  wasn't showing it.<br/>"I am fine with you riding me, but  I can't help but wonder what  you really feel about me. You seem kind but..a bit I am thinking that is just professional courtesy that you are not showing that you are not happy with me knowing so little.But, really that is not all my fault now is it? They could of taught me, with them knowing about how you are. They knew who they were going to pick for me after all."
