kingsroads: (maybe staring makes it work)

This conversation's been going on for honestly longer than Strange was expecting. And Strange knows the more he talks, the more likely it is he'll give something away. He knows about the room's layout, he knows more about Ignatius, and he knows that Penemue at least has exploitable doubts about all of this: that's enough info to cut this short and return back to the team before the conversation shifts elsewhere.

"My point stands. If you're worried about the cost of betraying your duties, then find a situation that changes the duties entirely. I did that once: it works better than you think." At least, he thinks it did. Strange hasn't exactly stuck around to see how England's doing with it's influx of magic. The taunting moves away from his tone a bit. At least with this, he's trying to give Penemue honest advice.

"Care for another piece of advice before I leave you?"
