Ya hear that, Sage? He wants to see the Great Calamity.
"I don't think that's such a good idea-"
Now c'mon. He's reportin' to some big group, right? Maybe they'll know a thing or two about how to deal with the Great Calamity. 'sides, we're only about a month away from the next one, right? He wouldn't even have to wait long.
[He's rather cheerful while talking up this idea, despite everyone else sounding or looking apprehensive. He does have a point though: it would be faster to just show Aventurine how things work around here than it would be to tell it to him. He would get a more accurate image of the world in the process too.
The Prince seems to realize that this is true, and he will cut in here to speak:]
"It would be unwise to sign any treaties before we deal with the next Calamity anyway, there's too much instability around that time. Mr. Bradley is right, the best possible choice would be to let thim and his men stay for now."
[Bradley is absolutely beaming at being told he's right. Because he is right, and he's getting the recognition he deserves.]
's not like I'm doin' anything important 'till the Great Calamity shows up anyway. I could keep an eye on him. What do ya think, Peacock? I bet you and I could get along real well.
[Given how Bradley looks right at Aventurine when he says that, it's pretty clear that 'Peacock' is how he's addressing Aventurine.]
