‘ your dad is a grade a asshole, ky’lar. why you bother taking such strong stock of his opinions is beyond me. i’m fairly certain val’shara would not agree to that. but then again, you don’t much care for her opinion, do you? ‘ lilith’s clawed nails were picking at a wound, idle amusement for herself, to keep her from strangling him. ‘ stop taking your father’s opinion for gold. don’t listen to him. ‘

_{‘i don’t care for anyone’s opinion – not even my own.’ maybe he did care for his father’s – if only so he could obtain what was rightfully his, but that was another story entirely. one, he didn’t quite feel like telling to her for the moment. ‘i just like stating the obvious.’ from a certain point of view, but he’d never admit that – not to himself and most certainly not to her.}
