Yet another thing that you have to find out for yourself. Just don't be so impatient to be treated as an adult before you're truly ready for it.
I believe I spoke of it in our conversation in April. There are different ways you can trust a person, and my trust does not always mean my friendship. However you trust someone, it's as real as any other emotion associated with them.
Only what everyone else knows about it. Shard magic was used and that it was a certain Cult's doing. I assume infiltration based on how she'd reacted and in the fact that she's well guarded. How could it not be infiltration? Based on the fact that these people can look like anyone they come into contact with, I would guess that her attacker was planted in the heart of her defenses without anyone even lifting an eyebrow in suspicion.
Also, you're mistaken on that front. Your side is the weakest because of one very, very important element that chaos is so fond of. Your freedom. You work in independent groups. You thrive off of being independent and doing your own thing. Backstabbing is more generally accepted and understood. Not to mention the fact that it's so very easy to take what your court stands for and twist it into something that can invoke the wrath of the other court as well as everyone else. My court has been working as a solid team and encouraged to do so. Think tactically: would you target the side that works as a single unit or the one that's already divided?
I'm in agreement on this. The Cult is a problem to all of us, not just Shardbearers.
Then I would re-evaluate why you're in such a relationship. Doubt can be a healthy thing in small doses, but constant doubt is a warning sign. It means you don't fully trust that person, and you'll need to figure out the heart of why that is so. If those bonds fail the test, then make new ones. Not all friendships last forever. Sometimes, friends drift apart and never speak to each other again. But people always find a way to forge new bonds, sometimes stronger than what they used to have.
Even with telepathy, you'll never understand them. You'll never understand why they think that way or the true context of those thoughts. It's simply because you never experienced what they did or you experienced the same thing in a different way.
I don't need to. I know what I would do. Even I know that my judgment can be flawed, and so I give chances to have my mind changed.
[...He's never really been thanked before and he doesn't actually know how to respond to it. Perhaps Joshua's getting too close, too tied to this kid.]
I have this feeling that the face you'd make if you told me this in person would be priceless.
