Everything's more fun when you can prove people wrong. [Casually. Oh-so-casually because Octavia doesn't have to know what's actually gone down in the last couple of months. And even with the precautions he's taken now and the things that have occurred, there's still that bit of arrogance and pride there that's hard to disable. Besides, the fact that they seem to be on the same wavelength doesn't escape him at all and that's actually fantastic.]

But...I mean, don't take this wrong, but they never made it sound like you guys had time for that stuff on the ark. [A little shrug.] But at least you'll prepared for Samhain.

[You know. If they get another Samhain. Who even knows...? This is the first year the tourney's been cancelled. He's not taking any chances.]
