If nothing else was gained from this, he did genuinely believe for sure that he had a right to figure out why it was that she had wanted to kill him. That was a right everyone who was about to die had, did they not?<br/><br/>Gah, it was that professionalism clouding his judgment again.<br/><br/>"Your...master? You were an individual and independent when I knew you; you would never have spoken that way. You had always wanted to be free, did you not?" He blinked a bit as though he were surprised that she could have ever even been talking that way. It was just...well, it was just strange to put it incredibly mildly. Could she have possibly changed that much?<br/><br/>Well, regardless, it all sounded fishy to him and he was starting to think the same exact way that Kaida was. Maybe that was an example of them finally learning to work together as a group instead of as two people who were acting apart.<br/><br/>Slowly he looked toward her as he was starting to concoct an idea that could possibly have gotten them out of this mess. Eyeing her, he started to step back and hoped she would allow him to get back onboard her. This time would be different, and he'd work with her instead of just barking orders.<br/><br/>More so, though, he hoped that Heloise wouldn't have noticed until it was far too late for her. That being said, he intended to capture the two of them as opposed to kill them if it were at all an option. He wasn't going to sully his hands as a murderer, but then again it would have been self-defense since they were trying to hurt him first anyway.
