[It's all tiny and frail-looking until she drops a meteor on someone's head. Honestly, even if she'd known what he was thinking Rinoa wouldn't have tried to change his mind. Better that people think that of her honestly.
Though so far there hasn't been anything like the anti-sorceress sentiment that's common where she's from, so maybe being out of the broom closet wouldn't hurt in the grand scheme of things.... within reason.]
