Mm. I wonder if they'd share that much 'behind the scenes' info with us?

Text

[samantha_grey]

Not easily. Odin really doesn't trust us much, even still.

Text

[holmes_fanatic]

Not at all.

Text

[samantha_grey]

I can't entirely blame him, since I've seen at least one turncoat before.

Text

[holmes_fanatic]

Only one?

Text

[samantha_grey]

Only one I could clearly identify as a turncoat. Others have avoided my gaze.

Text

[holmes_fanatic]

And he seems to equate any questioning with actively challenging his authority which doesn't help.

Text

[samantha_grey]

I think, in a way, that it's more like he severely likes intrusive or what he sees as repetitive, foolish or unecessary questions. It makes him very hard to speak to, since he won't fill us in on what those are.

Ah, he's certainly made it clear he dislikes having his time waster! Hel's similar in that respect.

Text

[samantha_grey]

The difference is why I respect Odin even if I don't like him. Hel outright and intentionally misinterpreted simple requests about getting access to research materials so we could assist better as asking for petty lessons or demanding things I never asked, and used it as excuses to snark.

She does not wish to help unless it interests her, and on top of that dislikes having her 'time wasted.' The only one wasting time is her.

My experience with Hel was somewhat different. I wonder if maybe I caught her on a good day?

Either way, I should probably get back to work finding a new room-mate.

Text

[samantha_grey]

Maybe, but let's be honest. I'm not the most diplomatic of people either.

Text

[holmes_fanatic]

I wasn't going to say so!

I'll talk to Samantha-san later, okay?

Sounds good. Take care of yourself.
