Aerys again rubs her temples at Abraxis' kind words, then folds her arms as she looks at the Aasimar. She appears embarassed as she speaks, and you get the feeling that she's still holding out somewhat. "It's nothing . . . just stress and nerves." Shaking off her mood with a visible effort, she goes on. "Look, I'm pretty handy with a blade, and I've been told I spin an entertaining yarn. I suppose I should do my part to get us through this. I think I'll be able to stand watches, or I could be useful keeping up morale around here."
OOC: Aerys is now (for the time being) moved from Unfriendly to Indifferent.
