"Oh, I was just curious". It seemed Cyzarine really wasn't one for carrying normal conversations, or maybe she just didn't want Fen to know the details. Either way, Fen wasn't justified in pressing further, so she just stuck with explaining her question.

"Because, although I'm currently taking classes from Beacon, I'm not actually a Huntress-in-training, and I don't have a team. My parents thought it would be a good idea for me to pursue extra self-defense training after graduating from Sanctum, and so I'm taking a two-year stint before I can start my education in entrepreneuring. This thing," Fen lifted up her halberd and examined it for emphasis, "really means nothing to me. It's just a representation of the stagnation of our society."

She leaned forward and rested her elbows on her knees.

"To be totally honest, from the moment I first saw you in the mall you seemed like somebody who was above all that - the Hunter-Grimm game."

Fen had no idea why she was suddenly spilling all this to the young scion. Maybe Cyzarine's curt language dissuaded Fen from pursuing meaningless formalities, and start bringing up the things that really mattered. And once she got going, everything else just followed. After being rescued, she wanted to prove that she was more than just a clueless heiress lacking the callous nature which defined Huntsmen and Huntresses. ''Because so far, I feel like that's the act I've been playing, with everyone. But maybe it's time for me to show that I'm made of some actual stuff.''

"An old friend of mine had these big ideas - that we could change the world if we got enough people onboard. He convinced me, Platinum, and Respersio. We were a tight-knit little group. After we fell apart I lost my conviction in these beliefs, but I'm just starting to see some groups of people who might actually change the world - if they felt like it. I just get that same feeling from you. I can't really explain it, but it's definitely there."

Fen hopes it doesn't sound like she's incoherently rambling. Of what she knows of the heiress so far, Cyzarine probably doesn't give a crap. But it felt nice to say, anyway.

''That's it: the lack of humanity! Whether she is less than human or more than human, it's that lack of emotional connection that makes her seem above everything that would bother everyone else. People would follow someone who is perceived as confident, if she just had a little charisma.''

Long car trips always made Fen get all deep and philosophical.

(IDEK. I just felt the need to say some meaningful stuff ^.^)
