Evelyn nodded carefully as Natalie spoke. She was an easy conversationalist, and despite the earlier affront to Nikolai's title, she genuinely liked the girl. Perhaps it was the comment that overall channeler rights would be her rights also. It meant she did not hold herself to another standard than the general public. Evelyn certainly approved of that. Simply being the youngest Congressperson in history did not mean that she herself was too special to not be held to the Constitution the same as any other American. Channeler rights should equally apply to all. Including Nikolai Brandon, Evelyn Avalon, and Natalie Northbrook.
"I can assure you, Natalie that I am here to prevent that very thing from happening. Channelers are not weapons, nor should they be. I confess that I yearn for a world without the need for weapons at all, where war and conflict are such distant histories that they are no more than myths and legends."
She smiled reassuringly.
"So you can rest well at night, Natalie. He's already agreed to a disarmament, so to say. To not utilize channelers in battle at all. In fact, I am drafting the very proposal that he has requested that promises just such terms."
She tapped the table like the technology was floating in the air behind her, although, of course it was not.
