Finally he'd finished, he rotated the blade back into the handle, setting it aside before lowering his head into the wash basin, scooping up a handful of water that he splashed over his face, doing this several time he came up, face damp and dripping. Thankfully she'd left a towel that he quickly collected from the footboard and ran across his face, drying it off. He looked out from behind it, eyeing her a moment. "Well a lady such as yourself clearly doesn't need a surly common man dirtying up her bedroom huh?" he said, clearly teasing from the smirk as he ran the towel across himself again until it was dry.
Surprisingly he placed it back on the footboard, proceeding to fold it up before her eyes to that of a neat square before turning and sighing, moving to the door... which he found locked. He frowned a little, giving the handle a few good tugs. "Did- why the hell isn't it opening; is it locked?" he asked, looking back to her with a slight tenseness on his features, the idea of being locked in felt a little... suffocating.
