Adeya narrowed her eyes at the statement, considering, before finally she snorted. “Like it would really be that easy,†she mutters quietly but derisively. Still, she did have to admit (though she would never say it out loud) that the pirate did have a point: getting into a fight here would be bad for both of them, but especially for her. After all, she was the one who had to worry more about collateral damage…
Looking up at the pirate, Adeya gave her an annoyed glare, her ears flattening against her head. Normally she didn’t mind the fact that she was shorter than most hyurs; however, this time was an exception to the rule. Rather than merely being a biological reality, she had the feeling that Naois was secretly enjoying looking down on her. The smirk on her face only helped to strengthen her suspicions.
But it was the kitten comment that truly managed to get to her.
“I’m no kit,†she snapped, a bit of anger creeping into her voice as the tip of her tail twitched behind her. Though she was trying not to show it, it seemed that the pirate had finally managed to strike a nerve. For a very brief instant her hands curl into fists; however, after a moment she lets out a breath as she glances briefly at the people around them, as if to remind herself that she does not want to have a confrontation here. Finally her eyes return back to Naois as she mulls over what the pirate just said.
“I see. So you’re exploiting desperate people now,†she says bluntly, her lip curled slightly in disgust. She had been to Ul’dah enough times to know something of the problems faced by the refugees there, but it was clear from her expression that she really wasn’t much of a fan of Naois’ “solutionâ€.
