It was probably for the best that they were interrupted before the fight could really begin. Rance's sneer had only broadened to an expression just short of a snarl as the woman ranted. Insults burned on his tongue and tensed his back. It didn't matter that he'd been the one to start the fight, he wasn't going to let her finish it!
Of course, that was before his anger was derailed by a cloud of bats swooping into the sky above them. [say]"You fuckin' said it,"[/say] Rance responded absently, no more malice behind it than her own exclamation. The bats circled, dispersing to hunt, their humming chaotic and tuneless. [say]"Read about these... never actually heard them."[/say] It was said more to himself than the woman sharing the road, but he spoke loud enough that she'd hear him.
