au variances: • Orekano accuses Wolfwood of ~corrupting Maylene, turning her into a tramp and tempting her towards hedonism and promiscuity, rather than of seducing and sleeping with her. Wolfwood's response is the same.
in sum: • You Are (Not) A Priest • this is a planet where you'll be held at gunpoint, just assume the girl you're talking to was a victim of sex trafficking to "repay her debts", congratulate her on her forced marriage, and tell her off for daydreams of agency because some people would still envy her "luxurious cage"—all in the span of about ten minutes • some orphan feelings • some rough-hewn big sister feelings • some even rougher-hewn bird feelings • (40 points) • in case you ever wondered whether the innocence of young kids could hold too much appeal for the wrong kinds of people: yes • better she take the brunt of Orekano's assault than the girl, though Wolfwood could have easily knocked him flat • a shame he brought the cavalry, but apparently Thou Shalt Not Kill doesn't bother her priestly ass • "I'm tired of a life of nothing more than filling the holes in other people's lives." "Stupid child... there's nothing wrong with that kind of life." • speak softly and carry a big stick • a stick full of quick mercy
