No better version of me I could pretend to be tonight
"Cheers to that." Smiling but without much hope, Koa taps his donut against hers in a sticky, poorly thought out cheers. It's hollow, the upcoming separation looming over them like a cloud. For all his determination and bravado, Koa is afraid. No matter how uncertain the future had become, he'd always had the Dragoons, and family, and home. Now each of those things is slipping away, and the boy can feel keenly his foundations crumbling beneath his feet.
But he keeps a smile on for Lena, eyes widening comically at her description of walking plants. "Oh no, no thanks," he shakes his head vehemently, shuddering for effect.
Having finished the last of his morsel, Koa now pops off the bench, feeling abruptly quite restless indeed. "Well, given there seems to be a fair bit of time in the Wilds in our future, I better get in shape." Ridiculous; Koa has never been out of shape a day of his life, a fact he's well aware and quite proud of. Nevertheless he pats his stomach, as though the purple morsel may have done irreparable damage to his abs. "What do you think - care to join me for a quick workout? Once youre done, of course."
