I'm falling behind with @fowltemberofficial but for day 16, WIP day!, have this:
"What's different between the present situation and New Year's Eve just a few weeks ago? What are you afraid of, that Beau might overdose me with chocolate? I think that's a threat I'll be able to fend off myself, even without the training of Madame Ko's Personal Protection Academy, thank you very much. You are not a valkyrja, and I am not your einheri. You are not bound to follow me everywhere, every time."
Butler huffed, and, knowing that he could not see her, Artemis grinned. She knew her bodyguard would appreciate the role switch: "No, I suppose I am not. As far as I remember, valkyries followed warriors in battle, and as dear as you are, you are no warrior, Artemis."
It was then, that Artemis played her ace: "Old friend, you know very well that I'm a warrior of the mind."
