There was an awkward silence as the Khajiit turned to face the person greeting her; her naked fur still scraggly from an awkward shift without spare clothing, and to boot, she was covered in dried blood and dirt.
She blinked a few times, before letting out a quiet noise of uncertainty.
"Caravan?" The young woman answered. "I, uh...I don't belong to the traders, sorry..."
There was a first time for everything, Ian supposed, looking everywhere but at her. Damn the luck that he hadn't noticed this before he approached her. One day, his inability to pay attention would get him into a pickle.
"I, uh, quite alright. My apologies for assuming.." he said, staring at a particularly boring rock by his boot. He wasn't sure if manners dictated he keep looking away, or if he make eye contact, so he settled on staring at the top of her head. From a distance, maybe it looked like eye contact?
The wind whipped his cloak up with swirls of fresh snow and chilled him clear to the bone. This woman looked unfortunately rough. Dirty and scraggly as she may be, Ian unpinned his cloak and offered it to her, looking away again.
"I-ii know there's, uh, there's negative implications behind this, and please don't think my intentions are, are in any way.. uh, nefarious, but would you like to, er, possibly come back to my house and get cleaned up? Warmed up? See if I have some clothes that may fit?"
