(Roark) “Do you need help with that?”

She was not sure how he had managed it -- perhaps he’d just bumped the box with his elbow when he turned -- but suddenly there were buttons everywhere. Endarie would be so angry if she saw, or if -- gods forbid -- any were lost. 

Some had to be plucked up individually, and other she was able to scoop into a pile, and then into her hands. All the while she kept glancing at the door to the back room, praying that Endarie would not come out and see the mess.

Bergitte looked at the man, and shook her head, offering a small nervous smile, “No, no. It’s quite alright, I’ve got it. Just...um...be more careful next time, please?”

(Rafe) “The answer is no by the way, to whatever you’re about to say.”

Bergitte had barely opened her mouth to speak before the man cut her off. She stared at him for a moment, frowning deeply, and after a moment let out a huff, “Well, that’s just fine. I don’t wish to speak to such a horribly rude person anyway. Good day.”

(Roark) ❛ i was an anxious child. i felt safest on the couch. ❜

“I understand,” Halldis replied, giving a small nod of understanding. While not something she’d been familiar with as a child, it was something she’d come to feel in recent years and found it to be most exhausting. Her brows furrowed, and head tilted, “I hope you don’t feel so anxious anymore...”

(Rafe) ❛ thieves wanna do more than kiss. ❜

Halldis stared for a moment, face reddening ever so slightly. It was a strange thing to say, and she was not entirely sure if he was propositioning her, or simply talking. Either way, she did not like it. She cleared her throat, and shook her head, “Well, wanting something and getting it are not the same at all.”

(Rafe) ❛ i think it’s gonna become clear as i take my clothes off what i am. ❜

“Um…t-that’s quite alright,” Halldis shook her head vigorously and held her hands out in front of her in refusal. There seemed no way to know if he was joking or not and she was not about to wait around and find out, “Not necessary. At all. Please don’t. I don’t need…I’m…um….I’m going now.”

(Rafe) “You know I’d do anything for you.” (so much sarcasm)

“Oh, if only that were true. You would have jumped from a bridge years ago.”

[dalamusrex]

(Roark) “Could you not embarrass me for five minutes?”

“Where is the fun in that? ...Fine. I will behave.”

[dalamusrex]

(Roark) “Despite our disagreements... I’ve got your back.”

Dalamus paused as though to deliver a witty comment, but instead replied after a moment, “...Likewise.”
