“Well, I suppose I’ll have to keep that in mind.” When Legend returned his attention to me, his lips were creased in a frown.
‘course, this isn’t exactly helpful for Taylor.
What could I say to defend myself now? Anything I said would be colored by Armsmaster’s undeserved comment on my personality.
It’s deserved, but only from Armmaster’s perspective.
“Another option would be for you to join the Wards. We were willing to offer you this when we got around to talking to you, before seeing you on your way.
Called it!
You would be placed under varying degrees of probation based on your past crimes, but you would earn a paycheck, you’d have a career-”
Much like Sophia.
…who is now another reason for Taylor to not take this deal. Based on what we saw in Interlude 3, the Wards are open about their identities. Joining the Wards would not only mean working with Sophia, but also Sophia finding out Taylor’s identity in turn.
With Sophia as a Ward, cape life might be pretty terrible. Taylor’s doing this to escape from the Harpies, after all.
“No.” The word left my mouth before I even thought about it.
Yeah, figured as much.
How honest do you feel like being about your reasons why, Taylor?
