When a student of a Peer who really didn't have a title until well on 10 years into the relationship - at which point she began being called "Esquire" becomes a pelican and wants to take a student but not use the title "Protege" AND wants to pass on the red belt she was given by her Peer - the soon to be student is called "Associate".

Also said Esquire turned Pelican never likes doing things the easy way.
