[ Claire's expression shifts into something softer. ]
If being labeled 'fool' means someone is underestimating you, let them. You know you aren't a fool, so you can outsmart a person who would think you are. But, for what it's worth, I know others with the same label, and none of them are fools. In fact, I would say they're very smart.
[ The Doctor comes to mind first, and while he's certainly silly at times, he's up there with the smartest people she's met while on Abraxas. When someone comes to take their tea order, Claire orders both sugar cookies and small cheese sandwiches, as well as a full pot of whatever tea River chooses. ]
I live in Solvunn, they're very nice. Sometimes too nice. They think we're very important, that gods must have brought us here, so the locals revere us a bit more than the other factions. At least I think. It takes some getting used to, honestly. I've heard in Thorne, people like to spy and gossip.
