Did... did Clove just adopt a woman who had just gotten through trying to stab her to death not too long ago? He was beginning to think that the joke he'd been told about Padawans becoming their Masters wasn't so much of a joke anymore because the parallel between him with Sebastian and Clove with her own murder-friend were real. That reminded him, if they were going to be adopting the woman they needed to know her name at the very least.
He sighed and gave Clove a fond side-eyed look.
"Do you even know her name?" he teased his padawan with a smirk, "Got to at least ask for a woman's name before declaring that you're giving her a soul. Propriety's sake and all that."
He was going to have fun teasing her about that for months - though he would have to make sure to come up with better jokes. If he kept coming out with such terrible jokes people were going to start calling them Dad Jokes and he was not old enough for that label.
Still, he turned to Clove with a grin.
"Ready to see Brighthome?"
He... he was ready.
It felt like he had been on the cusp of finding Brighthome for years, pulled off the hunt every time for something else that demanded his attention but no longer. He would actually arrive at his goal after so long.
