Morning Jog (An On Going In Between)

Rebecca's first reaction was to call him out on the poorly timed joke. But then she realized that if she was to actually earn his trust more than just as members of a Cabal, than she would have to actually accept his kind of humor. Luckily, she was ahead of him so she figured that he missed the facial reaction to his words that cut deep.

Doing her best to hide her initial reaction she made an honest effort to joke back. "You are mistaken" she replied with an equally even voice. "That is not the easiest way. I could simply kill him. Speaking from experience, guilt fades over time. revulsion on the other hand lingers for years to pass."

She hoped that her attempt at this kind of humor was taken the right way. Still she figured that she would clarify her stance on this issue. "However, ultra extremes aside. Is there something more practical that you might be able to suggest?"
