Don’t know that I’d call it a natural talent of “any female” – it’s a reasonable alternative take on what he asked. In other words, I don’t think she’s twisting anything, nor is she against him.
If I were in that sort of situation, I’d expect something like “*Once* we find Ethreden, *then* we’ll talk things over and work something out.”
AARG! Just confess your undying love in simple terms so he can understand it! He’s a guy, he needs small words when talking about emotions, and if Garanos won’t take him I will.
That………is actually the most articulate response to that kind of a question I have ever read/heard.
Translated from chick to dude, she is saying: ” I would say yes in a second, but then that would make you my silver medal. And I can’t do that to you.”
Styx should really be grateful for that kind of answer, because if she had said yes, then he would have spent the rest of his life thinking that he was some kind of consolation prize.
we haven’t seen her #1 guy in action yet so how can we “choose”?
he is suppose to be a noble on par with her status, a full healer, her first love, and in trouble- its not his fault he got kidnapped, as far as we know.
this Styx guy, sweet though he is, is a small village guy, still only apprentice healer- so considerably younger, who is totally ignorant of her homeland. he is good to have near by, for sure, but once she decides to regain her life instead of running away from them… he will be totally out of his depth.

LOL. The natural talent of any female…..twisting a males words against him. brilliant.

I love her facial expression in the second panel, it’s very realistically hurt. ^^

“Insult me… insult me now… please?”
ummm….. *holds up a sign that says “PICK STYX!!!!!!!”*
Awwww. Poor Garanos. ;.;
Though Styx is totally too sweet for the general, “Nice guy who only gets a chance after Guy 1 fails epically.”
