Description:
Jasper: My dear Rosalind is already twenty-one, she will have to encounter unsavory ponies all her life. She needs to learn how to handle them with the grace and poise of a Coltulet. Not throw a fit like a spoiled child.
Paige: With all do respect, I'd hardly call this one of her "fits".. Please, I ask you to just reconsider the General's choice. Perhaps her judgement this time isn't... the best.
The old stallion's brow furrowed as he shot a piercing glare at his maid. Calmly he placed his glasses down on his cluttered desk, but his tone has shifted.
Jasper: I have full faith in General Demetrius Crow not to send me a psychopath to protect my only daughter. I need not to remind you, Demetrius has been a loyal ally to our family as well as a close confidant of mine for many years. I'm sure she is already aware of Victor Bates' past and still insisted that he was the best pony for the job.
Paige: Hmph! For Rosalind's sake, I hope your judgement isn't misplaced.
Jasper: I would hope so... Now, if that is all, you are excused for the night.
Seems we struck a nerve! Doesn't seem like Paige is going to get anywhere today.
