Florence waved her hands around in front of Mi, as if she wanted to interrupt her. "It's okay, I know how you feel about Gallia, I know you hate it, everybody does, oui, but it's not fair to tell me about what you do to my people as if it this was a competition, if I am with you, I don't want to discuss the war, I do this at home." She said and pointed behind her. It was true, Florence knew that Mi hated Gallia, but this is a common thought within Sirius, a very common one, albeit that Florence had to say that justifying a sector-wide conquest is tough, Gallia was the evil side in this conflict. The biggest conflict, however, was her personal one, if Mi wasn't there, she would be more ruthless, the current battles are just the execution of orders and there were some people in the Royal Navy who didn't know what mercy and empathy are, who would let a starving family die if it was not of gallic blood. Florence was not like this, she fought the war, she believes in the victory but she also believes in peace and honor, her battles are honorable fights and no slaughters. She waited a few seconds when Mi suggested avoiding piracy and then began to shake her head and halfway rolling her eyes in a compromise. "Bon, that's fine, better than making a big deal out of this." She said and sniffed, her gesture seemed to say that she still was a little bit annoyed.
