[Seasonal Event] we scramble for redemption

KIADA

your battleworn tongue doesn't say the truth;

that you are ruined

She sees the barest grin slip from Deimos, and she rolls her eyes broadly in front of him before smiling softly in the end. “Thanks.” She says at first to Deimos, as if embarrassed that she wasn’t worthy of it, worthy of becoming a monster hunter when she couldn’t kill any of the monsters here. A nod is given to Amun, as well, giving him a soft grin back. “Thank you.” Because she doesn’t have a nickname for him, nor does she really know him well enough to pick up anything to snark on.

Yet anyway.

Eyes drift back to Deimos with a dark raised brow and tilt of her head. A look that says ’talk later’. But she allows him to continue on, while she puts a few salvageable things into a small pile, ready to be taken and added to the new Monster Hunter’s Guild. She spots Oliver seeking things out, and she slips away from Deimos’ side to approach the blond man. “I’ve got a pile started that you can add to if you find things useful?” A light lilt to her tone, offering him a small smile before she returns to finish up finding the remains.

She thinks she’s gotten them all by the time Deimos is done with the ruined materials, leaving nothing but ash behind. And she turns to him with a light nod as soon as he returns.

and you wonder why he lets you,

the butcher

touch him
