Rance’s expression loosened at the apology and he shrugged. “Yeah, there’s that. Don’t worry about it.” Rance certainly wasn’t. Whatever annoyance he might have felt was washed away by Oliver’s obvious regret. Of course, there was always a chance that he’d intended the insult, but that chance was so small that Rance didn’t even seriously consider it.
Surprise changed into recognition and amusement as the blond answered his questions, nodding in understanding as he clarified which ‘leopard’. “I thought I recognized your voice. I don’t know what a ‘leopard’ is, so I wouldn’t have known that you were the same sort if you hadn’t said. So, at least I won’t make that mistake either?” His echoing of Oliver’s earlier statement was intentional, but there was nothing mocking in his tone, it was just his way of trying to let Oliver know that he understood.
At the next set of questions, Rance turned back int the direction he’d originally been heading, though he waited for Oliver to catch up before walking on. “You know as much as I do. Guess it’s supposed to show you a vision or somethin’?” Rance shrugged again. “I was lookin’ for… a little guidance, I guess. Maybe something to look forward to, or a damned goal.” He huffed a laugh.
