Life is tough my darling, but so are you.
Thal scoffs aloud before she can stop it. How old does this woman think she is? It isn't like she's some decrepit old lady. She's only been an Ancient for about two years anyways.
With her eyes closed, she thinks maybe her companion has taken the hint. But alas, no.
Her eye peeks open ever so slightly, allowing a sliver of blue to appear in annoyed chastisement. "Usually, you're supposed to offer your name first." She isn't really inclined to give her own, but if it will shut the woman up, she's willing to. What harm can it do anyways? So with a huff of her breath, she closes her eyes again. "Captain Thalassa."
Trying to keep the talking to a minimum, she rubs the dark red blood over her shoulders, letting it soak into her skin pleasantly. The blood lust that always lingers in the back of her mind surprisingly subsides with the action. Although it wasn't very high to begin with, it nearly vanishes. She realizes that she doesn't remember the last time she felt so free of the constant need. Some days are better than others, but it's never gone. Others might take solace in their pre-Ancient memories, yet Thal doesn't have such luxuries, so she takes a moment to appreciate the comforting vacancy.
