I should be asking you that. [She closes the distance between them, linking their arms together with little ceremony as she holds the umbrella up. She may be reaching up a little higher to keep them both covered] You don't look so well.

[Oh.


A bit of a surprise, but he falls right into line with it. It's been a while since he had a woman on his arm. A quiet "thanks" is whispered as he hears the sound of the rain against something above him. An umbrella, maybe?]

Ah, nothing but bad fortune, don't worry. Fate just decided my eyes needed a break.

What a lucky man I was to come across you.

[fetteredwings]

[That gives Nala room for pause and she laughs, light and airy. So Thancred does speak like this in reality. Good to know]

Oh, luck is it? [She smiles, even though he can't see it. Hunger gnaws at her] Mmmm, I feel like I got lucky myself to have such a handsome man land in my trap like this.

[heartofcorundum]

[Trap, hmm.

Though he chuckles, the energy is far more muted than the warmth and wildness of his dreams.]

A trap for me to bask in your compliments, none the wiser and unable to reciprocate? Here I might start to worry.

[A beat, and his voice softens slightly.]

Really, though. Are you feeling alright? You've never been one to flirt so brashly with me.

[fetteredwings]

[ Nala, who spent most of her time sidestepping such flirtations in reality, looks confused herself. Was it such a strange thing for her to say? Not really. She had plenty of times she had flirted like this, but--]

I... don't know. Maybe I'm just too hungry to think straight. I feel like I haven't eaten in weeks.

[ Famished and needy; she can't quite place this lack of satisfaction at all]

Do you find it that odd?
