You're not even one of my servants, so it's not like you should treat me any differently to begin with. Even if I'm nobility, we're all in the same situation and nothing sets us apart from each other here.
Hey, I could use the same rebuttal for you, you know. You've got a dangerously sharp tongue to be barking instructions around someone in service to another lord.
[Thank god he's used to dealing with someone who is also mean, so he just huffs, half in good-nature and half just exasperated. But his tone isn't cruel, only just slightly flippant.]
When it's all you know for over sixteen years, it's hard not to just do it automatically. But I'll watch my tongue, alright? I don't want to offend you.
My sharp tongue is equal opportunity and it would not be the first time it's gotten me into trouble.
[she's pretty casual about that too, unbothered. it seems that this is just the way she is and she has no particular concern about changing it.]
But for what it's worth, you'd have to try a lot harder to offend me. It's just annoying, to be treated cordially when you know nothing of me and I've done nothing to deserve it.
[it just doesn't sit right with her, too fake for someone so straightforward]
