I don't think it's arrogance to be able to decide where you wish to go and how.

[portolan]

All the people I like don't seem to think so.

[dothelokimotion]

What do they think then?

[portolan]

Same as you I’d wager. No sense in following rules that don’t suit you.

[dothelokimotion]

[ hmm. ]

And nothing more than that?

[portolan]

[ Are they having a real conversation about this? ]

I'm not entirely convinced arrogance exists. I think it's a word people apply to those willing to carve their own path. And I'd like to flatter myself and think the people who like me generally like that about me. They certainly let me know when they don't.

[dothelokimotion]

Perhaps.

You don't sound all that certain.

[portolan]

I think I'm a little shaken on all my convictions lately. Except my love of tea -- that truly never wavers.

[dothelokimotion]

Well. A few shakeups benefits character. Stagnancy is never ideal.

sorry i fell off the earth this week

[portolan]

Well we are in complete accordance there. My we never be stagnant. Although, truly, I'm alright having a quiet few weeks for once.

no worries!

[dothelokimotion]

I suppose that is not a difficult ask.

[portolan]

I fear you are correct. May the quiet hold long enough for my partner and I to leave town for a few days.

[dothelokimotion]

Who is your partner?

[portolan]

David Alleyne. Tall striking fellow wearing the stunning red dress at your gala.

[dothelokimotion]

I see.

[ he does recall someone like that, albeit vaguely. ]

[portolan]

[ A grin at Loki's response -- he hardly expects the other to remember everyone he saw, though he of course is biased that David was hard to miss. ]

It was a packed event. I should congratulate you again.

[dothelokimotion]

[ he does smile. ]

I don't like doing anything in half-measures.

[portolan]

I deeply respect that in a person. Cheers.

[dothelokimotion]

Thank you.
