That just got a vague hand wave of dismissal, "Good for me bad for someone else, six of one half dozen of the other." Fortune favored the bold, and those not around her when she was in a petty mood.
A sardonic smile, tired and bitter twisted at her lips. "Impossible to live a life everyone agrees with. People used to disagree I should have been born at all, with that baseline what's the point of bothering?" A challenging eyebrow raised to meet his own, and maybe that was a good summary of how she had gotten started. The group wouldn't let her walk in the front so she undermined them instead of hanging her head in the back as she should've.
Another poke, this one aiming in the general vicinity of his rib cage instead of his knee, "You can't just take yourself out when it's convenient you know. I throw myself in with my worldview, I'm the scum of the Earth but I still spit on the dirt, but I was not created in a vacuum." There was an ethical point she was making, but it didn't stop the playful, teasing grin on her face.
That didn't phase her, "Sure I can. We just say it differently now, go about it in a more sideways way."
