[i]In an instant a blade was at your throat, hovering there from where it was situated on her wrist. What you had identified as conflict in her eyes was even more apparent now, as they sparkled with years' worth of anger and resentment, and her face was contorted in a half-snarl. The sudden change of emotion was jarring, but when she spoke she did so calmly and deliberately,[/i]
"You don't think that he knew I was alive? You're more naive than I thought."
[i]The blade lowered, and her angry composure faded away. She seemed the slightest bit irritable still, but she had largely returned to her former temperament, almost sounding sheepish.[/i]
"I'm... Sorry. I...-I kinda lost my temper."

".....hmph" he didn't seem to care about the blade at his throat, seemed to sorta come with the fact that he'd developed a fatalistic depression and well.......he was batshit durable now, the blade had wavered as it hovered over his throat "Lose your temper, go ahead...." his voice had hardened at her comment about his naivity, and he looked at the fire studiously and ignored you, those glowing eyes dimming with.....something you guessed were tears
-
[i]She grits her teeth and sighs, rolling her eyes slightly. Still, she went over Alpha and sat down next to him, putting a hand on his shoulder as she looked up at the starry sky above them.[/i] "Don't worry about it kid. Life's a hard mistress, but she's the best teacher a woma-a ma-... You can ask for." [i]She gives a shy smile of reassurance, and then gets back up, stretching her arms and legs, as if she were preparing for a run, almost. You still weren't sure entirely what to think of her, but she seemed kind enough--when she wasn't threatening you, that is.[/i] "I can stay out of your fur, if you'd like. I'm sorry to interrupt your hard work like that, by the way, but I figured that you'd want a formal introduction after that fiasco in the courtyard."
-
"Formal, casual, hell, It's better than nothing" he sighed "Dammit why'd he even decide on the Hermes in the first place?"
-
[i]She unslung her rifle from her back, dropping it into her arms. Almost childishly so, she took aim at an imaginary target, perhaps as a distraction, and then began adjusting a knob on the scope.[/i] "The Hermes was a good a target as any. Poorly defended, high-value, and loaded with credits. If he hadn't done it, I wouldn't have been surprised if someone else did." [i]She slings the rifle over her back again, and turns to face you,[/i] "And there are few people more deserving of being robbed and murdered than NTR Marines."
-
"i can tell its story time, cause I need answers, why the hate?"
-
"Story time ain't happening kid. That's for another time. It's time for you to share a little bit about yourself now." [i]She stops looking so distracted now, focusing on you.[/i] "Why are you after those soldiers? Phoenix and Silver?"
-
"They're with the alliance, a faction that had proven itself time and time again a threat to me and the crew's safety They specifically had chased me across the galaxy even as I bled in that sparrowhawk right there, and would have continued to do so no matter where I went"
-
"So they're hunters, not soldiers? I can see why you'd hate them as you do. Maybe I was wrong for stopping you in the courtyard, but I didn't want you to end him that way, to see you consumed by the same rage that consumed me, and even my husband."
-
"maybe you're right, but maybe it's too late for me, hell you can even see it in my body" he motioned to his lengthened horns and now-glowing eyes and even smaller changes, like flecks of black in the white of his fur, especially around his neck, the black arranging itself into hazy patterns that slowly seemed to sharpen as time went on "Heh, maybe I should've let them kill me, who's to say they won't come back and kill me or worse, kill anyone I might come to care for?"
