Impossible standards. We were taught from a very young age to be the best nobles that we could be- of course that meant being the best that we could be in my mother's vision. There was no room in that point of view for a mage, as we lose our titles and rights when we manifest. But the point stuck, I suppose. If I could not be the best noble- I should be the best mage I could possibly be. The best healer. The best teacher. Should you ever find me training with Martel in the evenings you will find I do not take well to progressing at an average pace. To be a LeBlanc is to be exceptional. It is a standard. An impossible one, yes, but...we try. I try. It is simply a given in my family. No one has ever truly seen it as remarkable until you.
So long as they appreciate brown sugar, i can forgive them.
