“At least none of your teammates used you as a human shield… Intentionally or otherwise,” He laughs, scratching a cheek a little awkwardly after the samurai takes the offered mug. She doesn’t seem hurt, true– Physically, anyways. But that pride seems a little damaged, and Alm’s not sure whether he ought to be prodding too much, but he doesn’t want to leave her entirely unattended. Sometimes the smallest gestures could mean the most. If she wants the space, she’ll get it after he says his piece.
“I mean, if my opinion counts for anything I think you did pretty great. Everyone did! Today was pretty fun, slips and slides notwithstanding. And, uh… I’m sorry about the ice, if it helps. It really wasn’t supposed to be that slippery out there. If you need to let off some steam, you’re free to pelt as many snowballs at me as you think’ll help or something.”
WELL, SHE DID have that going for her, at least. None of her teammates had used her as a human shield ------ not that she would have been a very good one to begin with. Raising the mug to her lips, a content hum peaks at the back of her throat. The warmth from the beverage itself makes her feel a tad bit better. ❝ I’M NOT MUCH of a shield to begin with, I’m, well... ❞ Gods, was she really about to say it? ❝ ...I’m a bit too short to bother usin’ for something like that. ❞
❝ AH... ❞ She was grateful for the praise, even if she felt as though she didn’t deserve it. She had had fun with the event, regardless of the outcome. ❝ YEA, EVERYONE DID a great job. I’m just a sore loser. ❞ Competitive by nature, ( her partner could easily attest to that on her behalf ) she just didn’t like admitting defeat. She was surprised though at his offer to allow her to PELT HIM WITH SNOWBALLS if that would help to heal her injured pride. ❝ NAH, NO USE takin’ it out on you. You guys couldn’t help the fact that it was slippery out there. Besides ------ it was also kinda my fault for getting so riled up that I didn’t look before rushing out there. ❞
