System Talk

"I can see how that interferes with your spellcraft." I said. "What about your System abilities?"

"My System," he said, "is possibly better than my wife's. Sadly, she doesn't want to share her hobby, so I won't be getting Torturer any time soon."

I blinked. "Couldn't you torture people independently of your wife? Build up to a level she would respect?"

He waved a hand dismissively. "She respects me just fine without the class. It is a private part of herself, which I am not welcome to share."

I squinted. "Is that really fair to you? Do you have your own private self from her?"

"Beh. I need no such luxury. While it is my hope that one day she will share her whole self with me, for now it is enough that she trusts me to know of it."

"Well," I said, "if I were writing the laws, this would definitely be illegal."
