Kokojo raised one eyebrow and, just to accentuate her incredulity, canted her head to one side.
"That, ser, is insensitive, insulting, grossly offensive..." She gave him an appreciative smirk. "... and practical. Refreshingly so."
The little corporal turned as the private joined them and playfully slugged her second in the thigh.
"Private Gregson. I will be accompanying this bold gentleman to Ishgard. You and the others are to await us just outside the Gates. Excuse your presence with PT; military exercises never end. When they inevitably take offense, be as humble and apologetic as need be, then make camp nearby. Keep eyes on the Gates: best case scenario, we will have Mynhier with us and an Ishgardian sortie on our asses; worst case scenario, if we aren't back within a sevenday, report home to the Lieutenant. Tell him, 'the nix has swallowed the napalm'. Do I make myself clear?"
Gregson gave the stranger a once-over with his gaze, as if committing the man's appearance and visage to memory, before turning and saluting his CO.
"Ser, yes ser!"
The corporal grinned as she returned the salute, then turned back to Xydane.
"I hope the weight, armor and all, won't inconvenience you, Ser Knight."
