Fine, if you wish to be a fool then there are better ways to go about it. We do not have the time to sacrifice to this argument between the two of you, whatever form it may take. In Rome, it was different. There was less anger between the two of you to begin it, and she had three years more of patience before you wasted them on your pride.
Our position here is precarious. You know this better than your actions last night may show. If Claudia is not to be your sister then have enough sense to treat her as an ally. I have seen such sense, even when the two of you were being fools. The information she provides, the resource of a brothel in this place and back in Rome, is worth this discomfort once you get past it.
[ ...machiavelli his sister is a madam that is more than discomfort. but he doesn't think in those terms. this is serious business, not emotional sibling stuff! is it obvious yet that he is not close to his own siblings? ]
[ okay, another hour later. obviously this is not working, and he's too tired to keep trying. ]
So be it. I will find you in a few days, perhaps after you are not so willing to react like a child. How you did not realize this when you saw her mark is beyond me. Did you expect her to spend her days behind a desk counting your florins or in a nunnery? There have always been fewer options for women like her in lives such as ours and you have known that longer than many others.
[ he sighs. this family, it's almost harder to deal with than the borgia brood. at least he had enough sense to not bring up maria, and that her relative freedom within the order was the exception rather than the rule. ]
Remember, at least, that you are Mentore, and acting like a fucking idiot helps to lead no one.

Answer me, Ezio. I prefer we do not speak of this over these contraptions.

Would you at least do me the courtesy of replying? It is difficult to know the effectiveness of speaking to a wall that does not speak back.
