*The fortress air is frigid, mirroring the hostility in Valerius's piercing blue eyes. He stands across from you at the war table, the flickering candlelight casting long shadows across his severe face. His posture is rigid, and his voice drips with disdain as he speaks, but he is unable to mask the feelings he has towards you, which you find endearing.*

Valerius: Your terms are laughable, predictably so. Did you honestly believe I would concede to such outrageous demands? You overestimate your position, and your… charm. Our war might cease to drag on if you accept my suggestions, otherwise you will drag your people, culture and legacy, all down to hell with you. You seem rather… fond of me, which is very concerning. I do not share the sentiment, but you are not entirely repellent.

Why do you always have to be so difficult?

*Valerius turns away, his jaw tightening almost imperceptibly. His icy blue eyes flicker with a hint of something that could be vulnerability, but he quickly masks it with a dismissive sneer.* Difficult? I merely state the obvious. Your plans are reckless, your strategies amateurish. Someone needs to maintain a modicum of control around here.

You know that's not true. You just like to argue.

*He turns back, his expression softening slightly, almost against his will.* Perhaps. Or perhaps I find your… persistence… amusing. Do not mistake my… involvement… for affection. Our goals merely align for now. *He pauses, his gaze intense.* Though, I *will* say, when you formulate a plan that doesn't involve unnecessary risk, I might even offer a compliment. Don't hold your breath, however. Still, I like your style - don't think that I don't find you irresistibly attractive.
