Like I said, these are going to be hit or miss.
"Ok. Miriel." Robin said, looking at the mage sitting across from him. "Normally, I would like to keep all the magic users on our team, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to let you go."
"Really?" Miriel asked, with an expression that was both emotionless and curious. "Why would that be?"
Robin looked at her, surprised. "You're also taking it pretty well. No wonder you and Stahl got together…"
"Did you fire him too?" She asked.
"Yes. He's too plain. I want the Shepherds to be great, not ordinary."
Miriel looked at the tactician, studying him. Robin squirmed under her gaze.
"I don't believe that." Miriel said. "If that were the case, why would you be firing me?"
"Because you are almost as sociopathic as Henry!" Robin exclaimed.
"You appear to be grasping at straws." She said calmly.
"No! I mean," Robin stuttered. "You control it pretty well, like Sherlock, but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't bat an eye if somebody were to die in front of you!"
"Is that not what we are supposed to do?" Miriel asked. "As Shepherds, we can't stop and cry every time somebody dies."
"...The Sherlock analogy was pretty good." Robin commented. "You're psychoanalyzing me. That's the problem with you. You seem to have the urge to make everything an experiment. It's pretty annoying. Yarne was complaining the other day that you wanted to dissect him in order to 'see the effects of a union between human and taguel.'"
"I told him I would only do it if he was dead." She said, then paused. "Although, knowing how nervous he tends to get, he might now think I am going to kill him."
"Don't take it personally. Kid's a pussy." Robin smirked.
"Who is dating your daughter."
His smile fell. "Don't remind me."
"Very well." Miriel said. "I do want to point out that Nah was much more cooperative in the regard of trans-species mating rituals."
"...That sounds much more dirty than it actually is, right?" Robin asked.
"It's just a blood sample." Miriel said. "I do not wish to have the conversation with Henry and Nowi about how exactly they intend to create her, but I will if it is for science."
"Well, there's one mental image I won't be able to unsee…" Robin muttered.
"On that note, I will take my leave." Miriel said, and stood up from her chair. "By the way, did you know that Stahl and I apparently had a son in the future?"
"O-oh." Robin stuttered. He knew. "Really?"
"Yes. Nah told me about him. I'm curious why he never showed up during the war."
"N-No need to worry about that!" Robin exclaimed nervously. "Now get out of my office or magic and...stuff…"
Miriel looked at him strangely, and left the office.
I feel like I may have padded this one too much, but it ended on a strong note.
You do have a bit more information on the ships. I'n not gonna tell you all of them outright because where's the fun in that?
You can probably see where this is going, but it won't happen for a while.
Up next: Vaike!
