KIADA
your battleworn tongue doesn't say the truth anymore
that you are ruined
For a moment, Kiada thinks the offer falls flat – that perhaps this wasn’t the way to make friends and that she had never been good at it to begin with. Her only friends were forged from fires and flames, from wars that raged from world to world. And yet, the Harpy feels a bit lackluster in her attempts and idle chatter – of the attempt to make a friend through drink and company alone. And Kiada spends a moment to think of how dull her personality is after all.
But the girl is wrong, as Ashe’s gaze drifts from Auni (who at this point is content letting Soot make as many webs as his heart pleases, while his tail wags and he stares cross eyed at the drunken spider) to her, and smiles. An awkward laugh leaves Kiada’s lips and she nods, turning to face the entrance from which she’d come. “Yep, that’s exactly it.” She says, bluntly, finding it much easier to say that rather than the other options she had running in her head.
Ashe’s attention slips toward Soot as he hiccups and Kiada’s eyes follow – Auni doesn’t mind what so ever, his ears flickering in an attempt to avoid contact with the silky webbing as he offered a quiet croon of encouragement to the chittering companion, trying to keep his head as level as he could while staring at his newfound friend. Kiada smiles to them briefly before Ashe’s voice interrupts her mind much like Jigano liked to do, and she glances to the assassin with a roguish smile. “It’s a pretty nice bar, give your mom my thanks.” She says, her smile growing a bit brighter.
Then, like that, Kiada begins to follow Ashe toward the bar – watching as Auni precariously tries to keep as even as he can to not lose Soot in the process. Thankfully, the Rathskeller isn’t too far. She knows Auni would feel terrible if he dropped the poor creature. Kiada, meanwhile, speeds up to get beside Ashe and glance over to her. “So you’re Attuned as well, then? I have a vulture form so far, but I've heard you can get more eventually.” She says easily, finding more in common with Ashe than she had originally thought.
