He demanded a mage’s true name, at his own tower no less! If the half elf is the least well read into magical lore he would know that such a thing could allow someone else to either enslave him or outright slay him with a single damned word!” he spat with growing fervor, he fisted his hands. He truly wanted to wring both their necks at this point; he never was good at controlling his temper once it flared.     He then, tried, to contain himself but could do nothing to quell the inferno that blazed within the gold glow of his wrathful eyes.“I do not care if either of you like me, and while respect is independent of it, I also do not care if you respect me, but I’ll tell you this; what Alden did was utterly insufferable. He endangered our purpose here and perhaps even our lives; if that does not make him an insufferable oaf, nothing ever will.” Alexander spoke with venom as he clenched his teeth and nearly ground them as he spoke while tilting his head suitably towards Alden.  While Alden was the obvious aim Alexander’s ire the rouge had the good sense to hold his tongue; to not do the same, or at least not try to do so, would have been improper.  “And you need not worry; I suffer not the need of a tome or idle preparation to perform my craft; I can readily perform my magic without need of such worthless crouches.” Alexander leered down at Alden condemningly while he spoke with thinly veiled ire and then inhaled hissingly though his teeth before continuing onwards. “Tact, a trait I thought you had but now know you know nothing about; even if the half-elf was awe struck by your blunder there were too many ways for your demanded to have been misunderstood. Would his true name be his first name, middle or last? Which one would a servant assume is a true name, what names if given plural? Is Tharivol a first or middle name? Is it a sir name that would leave us with an entire family to bring? Or maybe, just maybe, it could be an assumed name; something that is the opposite of any kind of true name; in this case a true name would have given us misinformation with the party at fault being us because you asked a smart question idiotically meanwhile it would have been amazingly simple to just introduce ourselves and extract a name that way at no risk without even informing him that that was one of the reasons we were there in the first place. Or an even better  way for your demand to fall flat on its face, as we’ve just been informed, the elf has ‘many’ names and Tharivol seems to be one that has been shed along the wayside.”“How you presented yourself, and thus us, gave every opportunity for abject failure one could blunder into and then strictly for some sort of sick amusement we would then also have to worry about the possibility of either the elf or the servant lying to your face. You of all people, or I should at least think, know that people are liable to simply lie when confronted with an unknown figure that takes a dominant stance. And did I mention that by taking such an aggressive stance you could’ve also put them on guard while also alienating us needlessly?” Alexander spoke and allowed his furry to start to ebb as he monologued. “Your one simple question carried a mountain of dire complications and complexities; Tact, use it.”Alexander's brows remained scrunched and downturned in displeasure and display of his recently made foul mood; he considered giving the duo more of his mind, but he knew that doing so would just grate himself needlessly, instead he turned and started away towards the inn with great annoyance.At this point, he wanted little else then for the day to be over.    [FONT=&quot] [sblock=OoC] While I might be a slow but, RP wise it does not matter if I take 3 seconds or 3 years to make my posts  ^^;Also, yes, Alexander is blunt and mean when he thinks someone acts stupid or ignorant and is utterly unapologetic about it.He walks the line of his alignment and well, you’re gonna have to wait and see what I mean :3…but I will say he is not nearly as fun loving as me ^^; [/sblock][/FONT]</blockquote>
