[ A week is nothing, but Lion gets away with it, because the rest of the words have to get wrestled with. It's not the lack of orders that's a problem. Everyone is trained to run on autopilot when they're out on loan. It's the choice part that's a problem. That's like telling someone to leave their post of their own volition. That. That doesn't happen. It shouldn't happen.
But thankfully that bit of blue-screen terror gets avoided because Lion throws a wrench into the mix with terminology. Partners. It's always used as a corollary of something else: business partners, dance partners, partners in crime. Even in relationships, it's just another adjective to add to the usual give/take dynamic, but the word itself is kind of weak. A partner is someone who works together with another, as an equal.
Such a weak little word. But it's more than the definition. ]
...No. It's not silly. Partners is exactly right. [ Because that's how it always felt after that initial disconnect. They've always just Worked. As- ] I'm sorry. If you thought I wasn't treating you as an equal. That wasn't my intention.
