Dusk’s expression turned into one of worry when he noticed the Miqo’te losing her balance and was about to make an attempt to catch her when the barely half eaten apple suddenly dropped on his head with a thud after its long fall, distracting him enough to miss Karigan’s fall.

He looked at her in surprise, lightly rubbing the spot on top of his head the fruit had hit him. “You… Meant to hit me with the apple..?” he wondered loudly to her comment, unsure of which event she referred to as he walked over to her.

Going down on one knee he offered a hand to help her up, still with surprise mixed with a bit of confusion on his face. The expression soon faded though as a careful smile appeared in its stead, leaving his question behind to focus on the task at hand and going back to the mission.

“I’ll do better. Not get in trouble!” He reassure the other, ready to try again.

Karigan blinked at him for a moment as he wondered out loud if she meant to hit him with the apple. It took her a moment to process that he had mistaken her comment for the wrong thing. Apparently falling on her backside an then making that comment hadn’t been paired together.

Laughter rang out from her as he knelt before her. It wasn’t that she thought his words of doing better were funny. She was still caught up on the apple hitting him an thinking she had done it on purpose. She gives him a toothy grin as she finally calms down, taking that offered hand to get back to her feet.

“I didn’t mean to hit ya with the apple. That was an accident. Honest.” She brushes the dirt off her shorts once standing once more. “Hows about we both do better an not get in trouble. I mean ya are talking to someone who gets in trouble on a daily basis.” A small grin as she puts her hands on her hips. “Mercenary life ain’t easy. Shall we try again then?”

(Okay fine I’ll bite. XD Though it’s hard when none of my characters are very mean. There was only two there that Kari might say. So meh. I’ll try to be helpful. XD) “It’s all your fault!”

It was supposed to be a simple yet kind gesture; accompany the Miqo’te through a dangerous area. But so much had gone wrong and the two barely escaped in one piece at the end. Stressed from the run and frustrated at the temporary companion the Miqo’te had shared her thoughts to him in a single short line of blame.

Dusk flinched to the comment. ‘His fault?’ He repeated in his mind, feeling anger rise to have the blame put on him even after he was the one who managed to get them out of the danger in the end. His brow furrowed and his visible eye turned dark as he roared back in defense to her statement, equally frustrated as her. 

Turning quickly on his heel once he made his thoughts clear he left the Miqo’te there. Being alone on his way however and thinking of the situations they just made it through he slowly came to realize the mistakes he had made which ultimately had put them in the dangerous situation to begin with. 

Rage turned into regret and the frown turned into an expression of sadness. He just wanted to help but had failed, then just made things worse by leaving. Suddenly feeling the need to make up for his mistake he once again spun around to hurry back in hope the girl would still be there. Of course she wasn’t. 

With a heavy sigh and troubled eyes he scanned the area around to try find the Miqo’te without result. Dusk turned his gaze to the ground, disappointed in himself and sad he wouldn’t get the chance to make things up.

Karigan had hated the idea of asking for help if she could avoid it. This job though was more then she was ready to handle alone. So naturally she had had to look around for someone willing to help a young mercenary. Managed to recruit a sturdy looking Au Ra gentleman. Not that she knew much about the race or their clans. She just knew he looked tough.

Of course if things could go wrong they did. When they were safe she had shouted at him. She was angry an frustrated. More at herself then at him in general. They had both made mistakes. What she hadn’t expected was his roar of response. She managed to avoid flinching. Just barely. She held onto her anger like a blade, sharp an dangerous. At least until he stormed off.

She scaled a nearby tree that had a good solid branch to perch upon. A heavy sigh as she fished a faerie apple from her bag, staring at the ruby color. He had had every right to yell at her when she had blamed him. They had both been at fault for their mad dash to safety. Her ears drooped as she took a bite of the apple. Normally she wasn’t one to be so mean. Vocal yes but never truly had she ever blamed someone helping her. Though it was something she probably would have done eventually to someone.

Her ears perked up as she heard footsteps nearby. Apple half eaten hanging from her mouth. Her eyes widened in surprise. He had come back. Though part of her wondered if it was to yell at her again. He did have every right to since she had let her anger get the better of her.

“If ya came back to yell some more, get it over with.” Karigan called down from the branch she sat on, looking at the apple rather then at him. She thought about dropping it down towards his head but had chosen rather to speak instead. He didn’t really deserve a half eaten apple dropped on his head. “I deserves it. I was wrong to treat ya like that.”

His head perked up at the voice, startled and looking around to find the source before realizing it came from above him. Surprised to see the Miqo’te up in the tree yet relived that she was still here. Now he just hoped she would let him be her companion again to make up for the mistake.

With slumped shoulders to show his shame he shook his head lightly to dismiss what she said as he looked up at her with concern. “I’m sorry for getting us in trouble…” He said with a sad tone. “Can I still help you?”

Nervous about the answer his gaze turned to the ground, ready for a rejection and having to travel alone again.

Blue cats eyes stared down at Dusk, giving him a long assessing stare. Her tail swished back an forth gently behind her, ears twitching ever so slightly. It was a long moment of silence from the seeker in the tree. She leans forward slightly to better look down at him.

“I don’t see why not. I can’t very well finish the job on my own.” She shrugs an takes another bite of the apple. Inside she was actually very relieved that he had offered to help still. It saved her the time of finding someone else to help her finish. As well as he hadn’t been all that bad despite the chaos they had gotten into. Not that she couldn’t get into enough trouble on her own of course.

Of course she had leaned a bit too far forward an upset her own balance on the branch. Her arms pinwheeled to try an regain her balance. In the process… Whoops. There went the apple sailing up into the air for a moment before dropping down towards Dusk’s head. Karigan came tumbling down after but not towards the Xaela. She did land on her feet first but only to wind up falling backwards onto her butt.

“I meant to do that…” Her cheeks turned pink in embarrassment.
