'My maturity?' Yuuri frowned at that, mind racing. 'Yeah, that's how I should have been acting all along. If I say that I'm taking it seriously, I need to prove it!

'After all, if I don't make this, Wolfram will be right. I really would be a wimp!'

"Right," he said, nodding his head and clearing his throat. His words were chosen as carefully as possible. "Ever since I arrived here, I've been serious about making a difference. I hate feeling so helpless, when those around me suffer. Normally, there are others by my side to help me make decisions, but there has to be a time when I do things on my own and act independently.

"Of course, if it's a Council, I'll be one of several actors, but I want to have a voice representing the everyday person - the one who is caught up in the middle of war and needs to be reassured that it will all work out. I want to talk to the military types and learn their motivations. I want to speak to the Queen and understand what happened all those years ago with that crystal."

His eyes had begun to move with emotion and he swallowed. "It's easy to say 'Oh, he's too young, too inexperienced, he doesn't know anything,' but I can prove that wrong. I've been at meetings where I'm the only one in the room who doesn't have a sword pointed at everyone else and I've stopped conflict from breaking out!"

He needed to convince her. He needed something. "I know you think that I'm only good for the last minute... that I'm..." It hit him. "That I'm the guy who comes in at the bottom of the 9th to pull the team ahead. But it's more than that! I can start strong and lead all the way through if that's what it takes! I see things through and I'm not the kind of person to give up."

He'd given his all. Now it was in her hands.

"Master Shibuya..." she drawled with an exasperated tone. "You do realize that such long-winded speeches are not likely to be tolerated in a Council meeting where military men and pacifists alike will desire a voice in a concentrated block of time seated before Her Majesty."

Then she smirked.

"It is lucky for you that this is only an interview." She extended her hand as if to shake. "You may yet see that spot on the Council, but it will of course depend on how the others do. For now, our time is at an end and Baelim over there..." She beckoned to the Guard in question before continuing, "Baelim will see you out of the castle."

At first, Yuuri had internally cringed, hearing what sounded like obvious disapproval. Then, it looked like she had reconsidered. He shook her hand as it was offered, trying to give her his best smile.

"Well, you did ask for proof," he said sheepishly, and then bowed to her once more before the guard led him back to the gates.
