Blowing up Mike after a single date gave her a good idea what would happen with her father, and that was exactly the sort of thing she wanted to avoid. She wasn't out to hurt or punish her father; she just wanted to be free of the whole mess and have her own life. "It won't." She nods. Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

After a moment she nods. "Well, if you ask me, you're in the right place to find out. You came to Paradigm for a reason. Between that and what's important to you, you probably have a good start."

"My goals before were too...limiting. Obviously I want to be the best, no that's a broad focus, not a tangible goal." He frowns.

"That makes sense." She shifts, leaning back now instead of forward on the railing. "So you want to be the best. At what?" You can't be the best at everything. Sadly. At this point she's just prompting him to get him to think it through and see where his hiccups are. Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

Again, it's obervation, not a question. She sighs, trying to figure out a way to explain as well as understand. "Well, I guess it depends. Do you want to be working with people you know will have your back? What if you need someone else because you can't be in two places at once? People follow a leader more than they fight against them." Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

"I wasn't thinking metas. I was thinking those you either don't like or work well with." It's the truth, at least. And it also encompass a lot of people. Probably.
