"<strong>. . .I would be lying if I claimed that a mortal body had no appetites other then the call of battle,</strong>" Joshua counters, "<strong>But you should not joke about a paladin forsaking his goddess.</strong>"<br/><br/>There's a little bit of steel in his voice this time, like she's touching buttons she shouldn't.<br/><br/>"<strong>And love takes more time to cultivate then a few moments, that's why it's so precious. Why people like me fight for it.</strong>"<br/><br/><em>Base lust on the other hand,</em>he admits in his head, sighing a bit. The body did have more appetites then war. Something he knows all to well at this point.
