[Coloring class got so fucking real so quickly? Molly just smiles back, and then goes back to his card, casual.]
You'd be far from the first person I've heard that from. I don't know that it's as difficult as all of that. At any rate, it's quite far away here yes? Could really be anything you want for the moment. Could be fun to try something.
[ ah just like real school. oversharing your trauma in art class while the teacher completely ignores you. ]
I've never been so removed from my home, to be honest. I travel, but always for my work to protect the kingdom. Everything I've ever done has been - for its betterment.
I. I don't know what to do, when it isn't for that cause.
I suppose I'll have to. I do want to look after those from my dorm, after all. [ a pause. ] And everyone else, too. Though I don't know how I'll do it.
[He nods, and taps the pencil he was drawing with and tapping it on his chin. Then he points it at her.]
A good place to start, if you ask me. [He smiles, half-cocked grin.] You know, a lot of places treat me with ... let's call it disrespect. But despite that, to me, it's important to me to leave every town just a little better than I've found it. An extra gold piece on the bartop. A good laugh with a stranger. Killing a monster that's been hurting people. Just to prove I can.

Everything for your country then? [He tilts his head a bit.] Never been one for national loyalties myself, but suppose it's some people's bag.
Can just focus on some betterment for yourself. Or a few strangers. Might be interesting.

I... [ she looks back down to focus on her coloring for the distraction. ] It can be hard. To leave things better.

... Maybe. Though I'd be at a loss for what to do outside of it, as well.
