Sorry about that. Thank god that part of the year is over and done and I can get my sleep schedule back in order. Anyway. here's Thaialie's bonds towards the team (and just opinion, where no "bond") - how do they feel towards her? i'm good for anything  ;D<br/><br/>• EXCELLENCE: On a past adventure in service to the guild, Thaialie did a star chart for the tiefling, and found signs pointing towards a surprisingly glorious future; she hasn't shared this with the bard yet; not only is she uncertain (astrology may be a science, but Thaialie isn't perfect!) but also because, really, would *you* tell someone who goes by the name of "Excellence" they are destined to greatness?<br/><br/>• CALANTHE: Just because it happens to<em>work</em>doesn't make it real magic, you know. it just makes you a fairy dragon with thumbs. Harrumph *goes back to reading*<br/><br/>• AURI: Auri practices a form of wizardry unfamiliar to Thaialie. The woman's a bit standoffish about explaining it all to a non-elf like Thaialie, which has the centaur even more convinced it must actually be something much deeper than what it looks like ('cause what it looks like is channeling magic through pointy metal instead of a proper focus, that can't be right!)<br/><br/>• MEAD: Mead is the only member of the team Thalalie might allow to ride her. I know how that sounds, and I meant it that way. But seriously, gnomes are small and Mead charms Thaialie, so even without the double entendre, it's true.<br/><br/>• LILLIAN: ...Has the mind and narrow outlook of a soldier. Which is fine when you're soldiering, but there's a lot more out there than mud and swords. Thaialie knows and respects that Lillian is a woman who's got a lot of experience to her, and wouldn't take kindly to a younger (even if substantially larger) woman patronizing her. Still, Thaialie believes Lillian could benefit from a broader understanding of the world, beyond chain of command, whether on the field or in a church (Thaialie being fairly irreligious probably factors in...)<br/><br/>• AUBRY: Thaialie thinks he's hunky. Uh, for a human. That is, she's heard human women are into what he looks like. Shut up.
