Then, I will just need to formally request that the Lord Commander come see more of the world with me. For understanding Isghard's neighbors and reestablishing relations with them, of course. [ A smirk tugs at the corner of her face and her tail flicks slightly beside her on her seat. She is rather serious about the notion despite the playful tone in her voice. ] It cannot hurt the Lord Commander to learn of how the others fair in military strategy...
[ A hand raises to rest on her chin as if she is truly thinking the matter over. Of course, Alkaid has already decided she might try to sneak the Lord Commander away whenever she might be able to. The matter merely lies in how to do such a thing and it not seem too conspicuous. Although, she imagines any who might see them at the moment would already think such a thing.
Then, she snaps her fingers as if to settle on an idea. Her hand goes to one of the fabrics draped on his armor in order to give it a good tug. Not only for his attention (which she already has) but also to tell him to step closer. ]
That settles it! I'll just need to figure out what places to take you. [ This time, she does rest her chin on his chest. Her head is tilted back to still be able to look up to him. Oh, she wishes she was a few inches taller to properly reach him. ] So, you should invest in a list of places and things you want to see. I'll personally take you there.
[ The smirk on her face then turns into something more gentle. ] And, in return, you can suggest the best place one should make a home in Ishgard. Even if it is out of the city such as Falcon's Nest or another gate...
[ Which, is to say in so m any words, that she very much intends to remain in Isghard even if her business takes her elsewhere. Having a home to return to is a tantalizing idea... one made better by the fact that the man she is quite taken with would wish to see her day-to-day. Perhaps, she might even learn how to surprise him upon returning to the city. All things, of course, are not set in stone until the war has concluded. Once they have brought Estinien back to his comrades and have finally put Nidhogg's vengeful soul to rest.

Her head tilts slightly and her gaze softens. ]
You should speak "selfishly" more often.
