Lucy practically braces herself for a tirade of a defense and chewing out; visibly letting out a breath when it doesn't come, and instead she gets more information than she expected!
"I love the idea of Guardians actually working together IF they're capable and competent. And hearing that they're resistant to cooperating with the other Guardians, doesn't surprise me at all. They'd have to give up some of their power and authority and I bet they don't like that. Come to think of it, I don't believe the Fayren Guardian even -lives- in Fayren." She glanced at Natsu, "Doesn't she live in her Subarchway?" How do you protect a city when you aren't living there?
Glancing back at Weiss, she sighed, picking up her tea. At least she felt vindicated that it wasn't just her and Natsu disgusted with the state of things in Fayren. "It's not just frustration. Her mouthpiece of a Deputy is disturbingly control-hungry. When the Hands of Decay first became active I tried to lure them out, and I opened Fairy Tail's doors to shelter mages who were afraid and wanted a safe place to stay. He wasted no time in "suggesting" that I not do that, to not even offer safety to people who weren't mages because the Hands weren't at the time, targeting them."
"I get the feeling because we're not among those to simply nod our heads and 'yes I agree' with everything they say, ... well, they have no intention of working with us. Since we're not a "Sanctioned investigation". He more or less said the same to Loki - who responded to the threat against mages before the Guardian or her Deputy did - that if he didn't want to report to him personally then to stay out of the investigation."
She huffed softly at the utter stupidity of the remark.
"They certainly haven't made any response to any of the network posts I've made with information about the Hands- they probably think what they're doing is working..and it's not. Those people are up to something -more- than just kidnapping mages. If others from Fairy Tail were about, we'd have a wider range to cover, but right now it's just Natsu and I, Bridget and Levy on occasion."
They were obviously looking for something, and as a writer, she had far too many theories and possibilities in her head.
"Frankly I think they've been in those positions for far too long, they've probably gotten complacent and slack off in the areas they need to focus on. Things need to be shaken up, and someone else would be better suited in that position."
A pause at how that sounds, and she quickly laughed, quickly sipping her tea because she'd had a lot to say apparently!
"I'm not saying me though! Natsu and I have our hands full enough with things as is. "
And she would never want a position in authority or power. She wouldn't even want to be Guild Master, and yet she was practically a stand in Guild master as it was.
BEHOLD THE TEAL DEER IN ALL ITS GLORY imsosorry
