Belial’s ears twitched, and if perytons could smile, it’d be an elongated grin across his mischievous face. For his efforts, he tilted his head and gave another unholy screech towards Cordelia, maybe a thank you, maybe a round of his own undignified laughter. Whatever the case, it caused the arch of the Sword’s brow and a heavy sigh, before rolling his eyes and pushing another gourd out of his wake with a well-timed boot.
His investigations of the area were haphazard at best, between the stranger, the peryton’s antics, and the hoard of pumpkins rambling around. Concentration incapable of being honed on the world around them, his piercing eyes shifted. Eventually he paused, slightly turned and away from the basin, considering the aligned pews, when she spoke to him again. His head tilted a fraction at something he couldn’t quite pinpoint, but extended his hand in return just the same. “What do you do in Halo?” Amongst the fold of survivors?
Crouching down to catch a gourd nearby by the vines, watching it squirm a little, threatening to gnash and bite the air, he snorted; permitting the lightest of smiles to touch over his mouth at the notion of pumpkin soup. “Cookies, muffins too.”
