"How'd he die?"​

She just stared downward, twiddling her fingers. "Old age." She.. Probably kept her answers short on purpose.​

"Oh. Boring."​

 

[Midnight Maiden]

"Oh. Boring."​

She.. Didn't comment. She didn't seem to have it in her to get mad at him for that comment right now.​

 

[BarrenThin]

She.. Didn't comment. She didn't seem to have it in her to get mad at him for that comment right now.​

"I thought there would be more to your world. When do I get to slay a dragon?"​

 

[Midnight Maiden]

"I thought there would be more to your world. When do I get to slay a dragon?"​

She tilted her head at him. "..I doubt you could pull that off. Even witches are difficult foes."​

 

[BarrenThin]

She tilted her head at him. "..I doubt you could pull that off. Even witches are difficult foes."​

"Don't underestimate me." ... He was probably joking.​

 

[Midnight Maiden]

"Don't underestimate me." ... He was probably joking.​

She looked at him warily. "..You have no sword. Or bow. Or... Anything. And the only magic you seem to know is that of healing."

"I doubt you could do it."​

 

[BarrenThin]

She looked at him warily. "..You have no sword. Or bow. Or... Anything. And the only magic you seem to know is that of healing."

"I doubt you could do it."​

"No, but I am great at kill stealing."​

 

[Midnight Maiden]

"No, but I am great at kill stealing."​

She looked confused. "How does one 'steal kills'?"​

 

[BarrenThin]

She looked confused. "How does one 'steal kills'?"​

"I keep my K/D ratio up by hiding and coming in at the last moment."​

 

[Midnight Maiden]

"I keep my K/D ratio up by hiding and coming in at the last moment."​

Now she looked much more confused. "...What?"​

 

[BarrenThin]

Now she looked much more confused. "...What?"​

He just smirked at her.​

 

[Midnight Maiden]

He just smirked at her.​

She just stared at him with a mix of confusion and curiosity. It seemed he'd pulled her out of the sadness that had come with discussing the king's death.​

That had been the idea, but it was unlikely he'd tell her that. "Don't worry. I can handle any scrubs."​

"..What are 'scrubs'?"​

 

[BarrenThin]

"..What are 'scrubs'?"​

"Casuals."​

 

[Midnight Maiden]

"Casuals."​

She still probably didn't understand, because she gave him an odd look. Moments later, she shook her head and looked away with a faint smile. "...You're odd, you know that?"​

 

[BarrenThin]

"... And?"​

 

[Midnight Maiden]

"... And?"​

She just smiled wider. "I like it. It's quite entertaining."​

 

[BarrenThin]

She just smiled wider. "I like it. It's quite entertaining."​

"Glad to be of service."​
