[attr="class","spiral"] He's bound to slip eventually. Fernando can feel the prickling feeling of being caught tease up his spine and he dismisses it with an equally confident smile. "Nope!" There's an extra enthusiastic chirp behind that answer and he uses it to transition to what he hopes will be a decent recovery. "Blue hair. Single Pokemon. Ranger. Obedient. Observe, assess, and judge." Fernando fetches his phone from his pocket to unlock his screen and dial out to someone. He hovers over the call button for a moment before deciding against it. He'll wait until things escalate. "Trust has to come from more than those assigned to you. Assimilation requires approval from every branch." @iris [newclass=.spiral]text-align: justify;font-family:calibri;font-size:14px; margin: 0 auto; width: 300px;[/newclass] [newclass=.spiral b]color: #90c1f9[/newclass] |

[attr="class","spiral"] "In some ways, yes. It's what you want it to be." Fernando smiles at her with contention that he's yet to be discovered. Or at least she's doesn't show it up front. The question that comes after is natural but Fernando knows how to wear his hat. "Ah, yes. But what's the alternative? To lie to you and trick you into giving me what I want? I won't say that as an organization, we practice this because I cannot vouch for everyone, but that's not what I'm about. Trust is earned and honesty is the best way to build it." It's almost scary that someone can be so full of shit yet parade it around like a well-earned badge. Fernando's lived the lie many times before and at this point it's hardly a delusion. Spout the opposite of what you believe and practice and this becomes easy. It helps to know what people want to hear and what they'll accept. @iris [newclass=.spiral]text-align: justify;font-family:calibri;font-size:14px; margin: 0 auto; width: 300px;[/newclass] [newclass=.spiral b]color: #90c1f9[/newclass] |

[attr="class","spiral"] "No idea. That's why they wanted me to observe." Fernando smiles a cheshire grin with eyes that probe for something deeper. Why place such importance on such a normal seeming girl? "What do you think? Do you deserve to be here? Do you want to be here?" Now he's teetering toward the edge but Fernando has confidence that he's over the narrowest ridge his ill informed interrogation. He can mask the question as rhetorical if worse comes to worse and bets appropriately that the pay off will be well worth it. @iris [newclass=.spiral]text-align: justify;font-family:calibri;font-size:14px; margin: 0 auto; width: 300px;[/newclass] [newclass=.spiral b]color: #90c1f9[/newclass] |

[attr="class","spiral"] Fernando decides against commenting on her opinion. His natural instinct says to confirm her suspicion. Yes, what she wants does not matter. No one's wants matter. What matters is being able to act on those wants. Those are the thoughts that come to mind and Fernando keeps them quiet to all except Isra Nightingale. There's a reason he maintains a somewhat clean image despite his own internal monologue. "I could. There are a lot of things I can do." Keeping things vague only leaves one question. "But should I?" @iris [newclass=.spiral]text-align: justify;font-family:calibri;font-size:14px; margin: 0 auto; width: 300px;[/newclass] [newclass=.spiral b]color: #90c1f9[/newclass] |

[attr="class","spiral"]"Indeed." Chasing each other will only lead them in circle. Fernando takes a dive and provides her a branch to lean on. "But I don't know enough to make that decision." But there's always a caveat. "Yet." He doesn't skip a beat. "What should I call you, Blue?" @iris [newclass=.spiral]text-align: justify;font-family:calibri;font-size:14px; margin: 0 auto; width: 300px;[/newclass] [newclass=.spiral b]color: #90c1f9[/newclass] |

[attr="class","spiral"]"Iris." Fernando repeats the name to commit it to memory but he'll forget eventually. The edges of his lips twist downward in a show of approval. "Well, a pleasure to meet you, Iris. I'm Fernando." He holds his hand out for a formal introduction. @iris [newclass=.spiral]text-align: justify;font-family:calibri;font-size:14px; margin: 0 auto; width: 300px;[/newclass] [newclass=.spiral b]color: #90c1f9[/newclass] |
