I, uh, got invited to join a crew. With some friends.
[She sipped her tea now, letting it all settle in. It was a lot, but for all of the best reasons. It was still hard to articulate that.]
And they’re letting me live in their house.

Nnno.
[That one word was enunciated for a purpose. Either this guy doesn’t know the meaning of this particular word or he thought maybe it wasn’t as simple as it was. Both could be true, or maybe he was just curious. One way to find out.]
They’re friends, they invited me to join and I accepted.

As a member of the crew.
[He nodded. It was housing due to her employment. Just as his household would be obligated to provide housing and meals for any who served in the palace as part of their pay. It was easier and more sensible in his mind to justify favorable treatment without the veneer of friendship.
It was just... The whole 'friendship' thing was still strange to him and, well... he didn't have friends. It was only that, he might have friends. There were those who called themselves his friends. But as Moon Supreme and strongest in the Three Realms, having friends was a weakness. So... he could not have friends.]
Acceptable.
[Yay for passing his judgement?]

Nnnnooo, friends.
Fffriendss.
[Did he not know the meaning of the word at all? This was hysterical in a different way now. As friendly as Daria claimed she was ages ago, even she knew what friends WERE. This guy didn't even acknowledge the word.]
...Do you know what that even is?
Fffriendss.

Welll, then perhaps you know how meanings are subjective sometimes. And sometimes especially, you can be in charge of the narrative you put out. I don't think anyone should have that clear advantage over anyone.
[hint hint nuuuuuuuuuuuudge.]
[hint hint nuuuuuuuuuuuudge.]
They can be, depends on what you're talking about. When it comes to shady stuff, it's almost never up to interpretation.
[ Don't ask him how he knows that. ]
