MAEA
Fortunately for the both of them, Hadama didn't say more about Maea's planned experiments, and she accepted his silence without demanding any further support - after all, she had never asked for permission, so why would she require his approval? Finding herself in a peculiar mood, mercurial and torn between pleasure at her own independence and a petulant wish to hear someone - anyone - express concern for her safety, it was hard to swallow the desire to snap back at the man. Maybe it was hunger. Maybe dregs of battle rage simmering in her veins, still. Maybe she would go hunting. Escorting Hadama to a body of water would be a good excuse to leave the Temple; she nodded, and collected her weapon from the ground with a swipe of the prehensile tail.
Toying with the chakram as they walked, she kept the pace slow enough that the mer wouldn't have trouble keeping up. For a time she was silent, sucking on sharp fangs until her tongue sored and the taste of metal grew too strong.
"It has been nice. Having someone to talk to," she murmured eventually. Not quite soft, but very honest; as was her way around recent acquaintances. "Would you mind... if I keept in touch anyway - even if I don't find anything?"
