Astra pauses right before leaving the base, taking a moment to think. "They were trying to have a conversation, from what you said he said that she wasnt understanding him and tried to stop the misunderstanding that was happening. its a bit dramatic but...think of it like... when she insulted him, she slapped him. or kicked him. And then you agreed with her, so you also slapped him." she shrugs, " and then she ran off, but he stayed...and then you slapped him again." she chuckles slightly at her own metaphor, shaking her head. "Why would you be surprised that he doesn't want to be slapped or kicked anymore?" She pauses and then sighs, " Maybe you would have handled it well. Maybe you could have gotten him to understand. but you're already too late, he has already been hurt. If you want the cat to come back to you, youre going to have to prove that youre not going to kick him again." She opens the way out, "Also, when we are being seiged is not the time to demand my attention on your interpersonal matters. I gave you several chances to understand that. Get out there and fight." The young man tilts his head, "Because you'd be a new piece to me. I know your name. ANd I know some of your deeds...but I dont know you, general. Now if youre feeling like you need it, you can go out on the attack. If youre fine here, then I would like to use your enhanced senses to detect anything coming at us and keep an eye on the field." The young vampire frowns some, looking over the battle field, then nods. "It would be safe for you to go underground to retrieve them. It would be safer for you not to participate, but I wont stop you."
