Zetta approves of this worsening language. Actually, he thought it was kinda cool to be having an influence on her like that.

"Technically I should show up as a member of the Council," Zetta said, though his tone made it clear he knew where his priorities lay. "But one of us needs to make sure that no anti-ship deeds get done while everyone else is distracted, right? And I'm sure no one would mind if I had some help doing that!"

Zetta liked Lash in large part because of how resilient she was. If she'd stayed depressed or mopey he wouldn't have known WHAT to do. She didn't, though; it was a big part of why she was so fun.
