Sleep

"I will pass on the offer. I mean no offence, I you wanted me dead I would have been before I walking into your camp. I just don't sleep often, to many bad experiences when I don't have a roof over my head." he explained. Stretching out "I only wished to rest my feet with out the need to build my own fire to do so, it is a lot of work and danger for the forest to make a fire to simple leave a few hours later." Lafayette told Klaine.

From Lafayette's point of view this man was naive at best, a fool hardy idealist at worst. Never a bad thing however it tended to get people killed. Wanting something so badly you open your mouth to the wrong people. Letting people in your home land know of about a certain affair, and many, many more things. The list goes on and on. Lafayette's list of personal rules was just as long. He believed one needs to keep all their plans close to their chest. You can never let anyone know what you stand for unless you are sure they share your ideals. This was his third rule to live by. The first was respect women always, negotiations when possible as to not kill them if unnecessary. This stemmed from loosing his mother. Lafayette's second rule was smile, smile always not to disarm. But genuine smiles. The face of a leader should show no fear.

"Please tell me how it is that someone who know so little about his own wine plans to make a trade deal?" Lafayette asked, calm with no sign of meaning offence. "Wouldn't it be hard to sell a product of which you know nothing about? I feel it would be as hard as writing a speech for a cause you did not believe or writing a faux love letter. If your heart is not in it how do you have hope of getting more then what you are asking. It is comparable to marriage really." Lafayette leaned against his trunk looking at the stars. "If you don't give it your all, they will find a finer place to get what they asked for. You can't sell a five year vintage as a ten just because the bottles are ten years old. Knowing what you want, is that something you can say you have?"
