   fenris moved, turning his head just slightly to look at them, a smile showing on his lips ; small and private.   “   ―― i like this about you,   “   he told reaper, voice a little rough from being at the edge of sleep, but full of softness he felt to them. not like they needed him liking it, but… it was nice to say. he lifted his right hand gently, reaching to theirs and hooks their fingers together loosely, with thumb caressing their skin.

     he frowned, shaking his hand and looking at them.   “   why you did that ?   “   he asked reaper, tilting his head. fenris watched the item with curiosity but didn’t try to touch it again.   “   i wanted it,   “   he murmured, fingers twitching ―― it was nice, shiny, and would look great on his arrows. but he followed the silent command, walking away with them, looking behind over his shoulder and ―――― “   oh, a trap!   “   he laughed as another player picked up the item and got attacked immediately. with a hum and a slight lift to his steps, fanris grinned at them.   “   aw, you always taking care of me!   “   he added with a wink.

      ―― come here.      ――― yes, my lady!

     she made a decision ―― calculated to take damage, but less than she would if doing things a different way. roach kept the monster close, fangs deep into their neck ; the hp should fill out enough to take a blow to her back from a coming monster. but it didn’t come, instead there was a warmth of fire right behind her, not licking her body but protecting her. she tossed aside the enemy from her hands and turned, eyes wandering over the scene ――― and smiled gently at the sight of reaper. of course.   “   ―― having my back?   “   she said, voice moduled to sounds amused and then nodded gently.   “   thanks.   “

     “   not a body,   “   roach said, kneeling down and quickly moving her fingers over the armor of the person. she couldn’t kill a player, hurt them yes, but kill? that’s made her mind flashing red and a high-pitched sound filling her ears. never got pushed enough to endure it and land the final hit.   “   he is just unconscious and i come to the nearest place,   “   she added, lifting her head just for a moment and smiling at reaper, before going back to stealing.

     “   um...   “   ciri murmured, slowly pulling out the sword out of a monster and looked at reaper, trying her best to look innocent.   “   yay, surprise?   “   she added weakly, like she didn’t just steal a kill. in her defence, she didn’t saw the other soon enough to understand it.

       the words wasn’t surprising ; ciri had no illusion over why reaper had her back right now. she hissed through her teeth, still pushing at the monster. axii was still on fucking cooldown, but with a corner of her eyes, ciri could see another monsters spawning.   “   yes, yes, i know !   “   she growled at the sorcerer, moving her feet quickly ―― it took another push to kill the monster in front of her and with a quick turn, she cast axii at the coming one.   “   ―― we need to fucking move !   “

     (   she liked things now. she had preferences. that was a wild ride, if you ask her.   )
