RIGBY
Rigby turned his head at her reply, stopping to look at her for a moment, worried she might be about to break down again. He wanted to groan and sigh, but he held it back on the tip of his tongue. As entertaining as it was to annoy and cause distress, be a beacon of chaos, there was enough stress in the earth the walked on, he didn't need to add more.
"Fine," he grumbled back, turning and walking a few paces forward before muttering, "sorry," under his breath. The words felt weird on his lips, foreign and icky. Maybe that was evident in his tone, in the way he refused to glance her way afterwards and dug his fists deep into his pockets.
And they walked and walked, not stopping for some time. This continued on for a couple more days until finally they broke the edge of a forest and came upon a long spiraling building. The Spire to be precise, not that Rigby would know (or care to know the name). A smile pulled at his lips; this wasn't Torchline, but there was a faint outline of some kind of settlement in the distance. What a perfect place to take a break, relieved at last he sat down and leaned back into the grass.
