He felt a cool gust travel down the street as they stood off against one another, neither one backing down, they were both clearly as stubborn as mules. He inhaled slowly, letting the silence wash over them for but a moment before he continued. "Quite honestly, I have no idea, now. Are you going to repeat your damn question or not." It didn't sound like much of itself a question, but a demand, staring daggers at her, eyes narrowed in a scowl. He didn't care at this point if she helped him or not, the principle of the thing was what drove him now, no one was going to speak to him like that, and he'd stand here for hours if it meant getting the small thing to his front to back down.
A man passed them suddenly, gazing at the two curiously before he was hurried along by a glare from Monnrow, now, why was it this little thing was so stubborn as to not back down? True, she herself looked like she'd been through the millstone a few times, the eye patch made that quite certain, though he suspected this was exactly why she'd got it in the first place, not caring to back down until it'd been too late.
Eyes now gazing to her stick he murmured, it was easy enough to disarm her if worse came to worse, he doubted she'd expect it, she most likely thought all he had to do was beat him over the head a few times and he'd run for it. The sudden glare of the dimming sun slowly making its way below the horizon caught him off guard as he turned his head away, eyes shutting for an instant. Damned thing, the stand off had been interrupted.
