     “ HM . I THINK IT'S A GOOD THING to stay sharp , regardless . You should know , as well as the others , that there is a price to pay for cowardice & stupidity here . ”   There’s a slight lean he takes against his ivory throne . He rests a pointed hand below a deadly jaw casually . Still , as ever , giving her a thin smile . What little he cared to know of her . At least she showed talent & didn’t flinch as she struck . That was enough .

      “ And I don’t abide fear amongst The Hunt , Mädchen . The only fear I desire to see is in my own prey as I hunt them down . I will allow you your desired space . I only ask that you remember that .

For a few minutes, though it felt much longer, Rin simply watched the woman as she went about what ever it was she decided to do. Picking something that had fallen off of the floor, pouring herself a cup of the tea he had just finished brewing, glancing, for just a moment, out of the small window. Something in the way she moved was so fluid and effortless, but still striking as if she didn’t need to think for even a second before doing. Her body simply moved, with full faith in every action and decision. 

And perhaps it was just because it was mundane actions she was preforming, but he didn’t think that was the case. Candice simply knew what she wanted to do, and she did it. Not a second spared for outcomes or consequences. She moved like she didn’t care at all what people thought of her, and he was pretty sure that she didn’t.

How freeing that must feel. 

He finally commented, with a faint laugh in his tone, without even realizing he had.
