Phoenix Maplewood That's the point

to vex's complete surprise, arbiter does not shut him down when he mentions his desire to rule. perhaps, he considers in the brief seconds before his lips part to speak, she is as grateful for the reprieve from the issue they've been 'round and 'round in endless circles on for months now as he was. i dunno, vex responds in a lazy drawl as they following the stale scent. it seems pretty fun. he remarks. what could be horrible about being the boss?

disarmed in general, vex is left to quickly try to compose himself in order to answer her inquiry as she poses it to him. besides being in charge, he really didn't have an answer for her and as this was one of those serious conversations ( and steeped heavily in something vex wanted ) he wanted to have more of a concrete answer for her. all of it. granted, it only went to prove that he didn't grasp the extent of 'all of it' and was far from knowledgeable on what being a leader meant and the sacrifices it demanded.
