“I go where I like and speak to who I like,” Ki’nuu said with a shrug. “I don’t play by silly little rules telling me how to act or who to be nice to.”

“No,” she said. “But… social norms, I suppose. I’m not rude to humans just because I’m fae.”

“You see how that makes it worse, not better?” She scoffed, looking at him skeptically. “Proof you can behave well and actively choose not to?”

"Seems to me you've been around humans too long." He jumped down from Tove's shoulder and strode off to bother one of the cats in the catnip patch.

Ki’nuu watched him go, thankful she was getting a moment with Tove. She seemed far more reasonable than her father. “How was it, the cu-sith? Did any of you get injured?”

"No." She shook her head. "We all got out fine, though the Thrush got a proper fright and passed out. The hillock troll who moved in by the waterfall got the cu-sith for us."

"Very gentle," Tove agreed, crossing her arms as her father darted after the startled cat. "If you're polite to her. The Thrush met her, too--got confused to start."

“Mm… I imagine it’d be surprising if you’re not accustomed to non-humans,” Ki’nuu said thoughtfully. “Heck. Aeron was even giggling that the kid didn’t realize he’s a walder, too… though I expect they’ve figured that out by now.”

"I expect so. Aeron doesn't really look like a walder though, does he? Not surprising that the Thrush couldn't pick him out."

“True.” Ki’nuu dipped her head. “He still acts like a little boy that’s just as likely to get in trouble with his headmaster for talking in class as he is to be a powerful magician… he’s a good kid, though. Good heart.”

"Certainly. He'll have to be careful with that heart of his, though."

Ki’nuu nodded. “Yeah…” she sighed a little. “I’m sure he’ll have to get it broken a few times before he wises up.”

I’d heard he had started a fistfight in one of the seedier local taverns because someone had insisted on saying the word “utilize” instead of “use". — Patrick Rothfuss, A Wise Man's Fear
