"The fact you can do that much at all is something that no one thought to have come to fruition in any lifetime. Only the hope of it. And you find it 'not enough'." He shook his head, sipping from his cup again, wondering just what he was going to do with someone that seemed to have absolutely no confidence in herself.

"I'm sorry, am I frustrating you?" Alina snapped at him. The fury in her chest that she knew was his hadn't subsided. It felt like it was only growing. She didn't like it. She finished off her drink and then obstinately crossed her arms over her chest. "I'm not exactly sure what you want from me. I've told you the truth."

What else did he expect from her?

[darkgrisha]

"Yes, you are." He looked at her with censure over the rim of his cup, watching her throw her little snit, amused despite himself. Though, the fury was still there. At everyone but her, though she certainly wasn't without the supposed need to be taken over a knee and taught how to speak properly to those above her in station.

"Well, you're doing the same to me. You know everything about me now, but I hardly know anything about you or the other Grisha," she retorted. She felt the thread of amusement from him. It only made her huffier. She'd always been a feral brat. Now she was his to deal with. Ana Kuya had always had a problem with disciplining her.

"I know barely anything about you. Only the obvious traits. The important ones." That she was Grisha. That she was Striga. That she was his. Clearly the important traits to focus on. Her temperament was becoming obvious. "And you'll know what I need you to know when you need to know it. I'd rather not have you run off with a bare few notions to get yourself in trouble."

"You know I am-- was a cartographer with the Second Army. You know I've been turned into this, and now I am Grisha. I am ignorant to so much about being Grisha and now my place in the world. Is it truly so bad to want to arm myself with knowledge?" she countered firmly. There was those flashes of the feral cat again. She released a short breath then slowly inhaled to get ahold of herself.

"I won't run off. I just want to understand this situation more," she said patiently in attempt to placate. With his blood in her system, she felt more clarity in her mind now that she wasn't distracted by her constant hunger.
