“Can I not say you are a kindred soul? Someone who fought against the Empire Eighty-Eight, in a different era?”
I see, so there’s been some animosity between Marquis and the Empire, too.
Dragon knew Marquis had come from Brockton Bay, as Lung did. It was why she had placed Lung in the cell block – there was little chance Lung would cooperate or band together with others, so she’d grasped at straws. Now it seemed there was something else at play.
Hm, yeah, but it still seems to tie back to them both being from Brockton Bay, so good work there, I guess.
Lung shook his head, “I do not believe this. I do not mind sharing stories and passing the time, but you would not be seeking to flatter me if you did not want something.”
I suppose in a place like this, that mentality makes some sense. Especially when there’s been animosity between the two of them before.
Marquis stroked his beard. “But if I did desire something and I told you what it was, you could withhold it and demand favors from me.”
…good point.
Lung tapped his finger on the table top, “If you insist on being a nuisance, you may never get what you want.”
Better point.
