 "Too narrow, hmm..." Ey frowned. "Was she...did she come up with propaganda?"

+Dear laughed, reached a finger into the shake glass to swipe up a little bit of sticky vanilla, and dabbed it on Codrin's nose. *"Well reasoned. Praiseworthy was the propagandist among the first lines."*

+*"No, you are a ways off from me resenting you, but you are perilously close to me lying to you."*
