\u201cAin\u2019t no use ridin\u2019 a horse while it still got sores.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

So the prince made her big announcement. That alone almost sent Setzinger in a bloody frenzy. The man was foolish enough to complain publicly and later on discussed the whole matter with his clan. I\u2019d say I eavesdropped, but that\u2019s not exactly how it happened. Was just standing there, watching over Summer. Can\u2019t help it that one could hear \u2018em as clear as canon fire from that little room of theirs.<\/p>\n

Turns out that Gilges character is about to join them. Fine by me, only means that up until then he\u2019d better be careful about letting people know. Don\u2019t think there\u2019s too many people who\u2019d mind. But those who do still can give him hell of a lot of trouble. Almost a shame he ain\u2019t Gangrel. After all he\u2019s got his wits about him. Come to think of it, that probably puts him on top of his other new mates.<\/p>\n

Can\u2019t say I know what to make of Ida. On one hand she\u2019s reluctant to accept that she ain\u2019t the one winning a fight out of the two of us, on the other she knows that she\u2019s not exactly the muscle of this team. Working with that prick should give her something useful to do. Something she actually likes. And I think she\u2019s much better suited for politics than I am, so I ain\u2019t exactly giving her a fight over the position of primogen. Besides, I should hope I\u2019ve got other things to do than spend my nights fuzzing over some minute detail in who\u2019d better smile which way.<\/p>\n

Sadly we all got to hear what pisses Ida off most. Lucky us the regent said he\u2019d figure things out with that Toreador woman. Not that he was smart enough to let me know how that turned out. Either way, I\u2019d better keep an eye out for poor Ida.<\/p>\n

Now, since Georg at least saw it within himself to offer his hand in peace, I figured I might as well accept it. Don\u2019t need enemies around here. Neither does he. I should hope he gets back on his feet some time soon. He\u2019ll be needed. However, politics might well break his neck and they\u2019ve already got the noose laid pretty tight about his throat. Munching down on some Malkavian doesn\u2019t exactly further his cause either.<\/p>\n

Her ladyship wasn\u2019t doing herself much of a favour by appointing herself some stranger as being the muscle in her domain. Sure, she\u2019s within her right to do so. But there are always plenty of folks about, second guessing her every decision. Not all of them will tell her to her face. And even when they do, them holding still means nothing. So why I\u2019m told to keep my eyes on the borders of town, I also have to keep my eye on her, whether she likes it or not. From where she stands I think she did the right thing. Not that she had much choice. Knowing better is easy though, especially when you\u2019re not the one with the weight bearing down on your shoulders.<\/p>\n

Which brings me to the last ilk. People who think all they\u2019ve got to do to ride a horse is put a saddle on her back and there you go. But not knowing the horse is sure to break your back. She may be standing still out of the kindness of her heart, true. But on the other hand, she might have had days behind her worth of hard work for ten times her strength. So what happens when you put the saddle down on her back? She\u2019ll take you down kicking faster than you can say holy cow.<\/p>\n

And just because you think she ain\u2019t hearing you, it don\u2019t tell you nothing about her character or what she\u2019s got in store.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
