“Quite the locale.” Says a young lady perfectly poised on a couch. (Naturally she’s picked out the fanciest couch available, complete with velvet seats and gold trim.) She’s been settled there for the past hour or so, not saying much of anything and just watching.
She still keeps her eyes wandering as she speaks, taking in everything she can and mentally cataloguing it away.
”Very well then, since it is apparently good form to ask a question here… how would any of you handle a situation where you’re outnumbered? Or more specifically, when your resources are diminished compared to before, and there are still obstacles ahead of you.”
((OOC: Testing the waters on an AU concept! The fine details/info probably won’t come up, but they are a driving background force and are written up on the character journal!))

It's hard not to notice that. Harder still to push the observation from her mind, and NOT linger on any thoughts that brings up. Mitsuru opts to fix on the eyes instead... and finds herself looking at the eyepatch as well, getting a different set of family memories pushing into her head.
...This is highly troubling, and completely incidental. It seems this place enjoys throwing curveballs in the form of new people, however. Mitsuru does her best to combat it, while taking a deep breath and gathering her thoughts.
"I prefer the tactically sound choice, if possible." She pauses, taking an abrupt interest in the couch embroidery before she adds, "while some sacrifices may be necessary, I prefer not to make needless ones... or needless risks, for that matter."

"Huh...Yeah, that's a sensible decision to make. It sounds like something Asgore would say." She shakes her head. "Sometimes the risk can't be avoided, or the threat is too great to ignore. You have to fight then."

"This Asgore has my respect, in that case." She answers mildly enough. "And while I won't argue with the idea of devoting all your effort into something, I also prefer to hold off on doing so until the absolute right time. As you suggested. Perhaps a little overly tactical, I know."
And cold. And calculating. She'll take that over looking off balance, however.
