// you've got a passion in those eyes //
Flora doesn't pull away but she doesn't come with him either, and Danta is not brave enough to keep trying. So as she heads for Kaisel the Maverick's feet are already carrying him back another few steps, blue eyes fixed on the towering silhouette of bone and shadow that the butcher has become. He's afraid to look away in case he draws the creature's attention, even if the familiar curl of nausea begins to churn in his gut to keep his eyes on him.
The rest of the crowd has already made themselves very scarce, all but the bravest of Ancients, or those who know Astaroth from the Dusklight. They stay, equal parts awed and horrified and clearly keen to see how this plays out. Danta can only imagine their disappointment when fiend becomes man once again, all writhing shadow and perfect posture, not a drop of blood spilled despite the provocation.
Swallowing hard and forcing his own social mask clumsily into place, he crams badly shaking hands into his pockets and offers Asta an overbright smile. "It's okay," he tells him, voice rough with what he hopes can be played off as a drink too many to everyone else. "I think I'm gonna go and give myself a little space though, if you don't mind? Sorry about... I... yeah. Sorry."
Offering a too quick nod towards Flora and Kai, Danta tries his best not to actively flee the Inner Quarter, but he's not slow about it either.
Danta out!
