"Well, I can certainly understand that. After all, quite a few of us are very fun to be around and it's always nice to have someone who understands your appetites. But I can certainly see why you wouldn't want to become a part of our politics. Especially now."
Thomas took a drink, pausing for a moment before confessing, "Somehow, I'm beginning to wonder if it will be possible for me to stay away from them indefinitely myself."
Actually, he already knew the answer. Reasonably, he couldn't. With Millicent it had been a possibility, but if this continued...he doubted he'd be lucky enough for the consequences to completely fall on their leader alone twice. The only way he could see to avoid having politics effect his life was to help a leader get power who was sane and reasonable. Someone he could trust with the nest, so he didn't have to worry about it.
