I'm a sᴏʟᴅɪᴇʀ.

     "Thanks, but -- it looked better when it was blonde. Maybe I should dye it." And maybe then people wouldn't tug on it so often.

     "It's real if that's what you were wondering. Tugging on it is just rude.."

     A sigh is given at the feeling of his head upon her shoulder once more; fresh memories of his claws sinking into her flesh scattering her attention slightly as she replied, "Y-Yeah--...they're healing; slowly but surely." That and Flavius had forcibly healed them quite a bit earlier, despite her protests, but Dai didn't need to know that. "It's not the worst pain I've ever felt, but yeah, they hurt sometimes -- that's to be expected though."

     A soft shrug of shoulders is given at the touch, not fond of the other's hands smoothing over her wounds. It was true that she'd been mad at the time, but as she had with most things, she'd gotten over it. "No, I'm not upset." She'll simply lace arms around the other in an attempt to keep him from the cold. "I'm alright."

     She's not sure whether or not she should nuzzle back; their last meeting didn't go over so well, after all, and she still had the injuries to prove it.

     He can have her jacket, because she knows what the weather does to him.

                     ❝Ah, two peas in a pod then —                              We really need to go and make ourselves known.                                          Or at least, you do, I need people to believe me                                                   when I tell them I could eat them whole.                                                            Oh that’s a shame, whether you had people                                                                    waiting or not wouldn’t you want to just look?❞

               "See, I can't make myself known.                      I was renowned once upon a time,                 but now there are people after me, so...                      I'm in hiding, to make a long story short.                 I don't want to know what became of my home                      because Bellus and I were half the cause of it's fall.                 If I killed all those people --                      I really don't want to know..."

     "Uhhh, Eve? Evi? Evelyn? Fuck, I don't remember," he admit, crimson pools narrowing slightly as he steps aside for the other; lord knows he'll force his way in even if Bellus refuses to move. "And I was hoping you'd died sometime in the nine months since your last visit."
