and that the world is always our fault
when we did nothing, how did we do wrong?

It only took her a few minutes to stumble across him practicing his punches. She stopped and leaned against the doorframe, intending to casually greet him, "He-" However, a low 'woof' caught her by surprise and she jumped. She instinctively tensed, reaching for a knife that wasn't on her hip (not today, anyway). Nothing terrible ensued so... she refocused on Sunjata awkwardly.
"Sorry," she mumbled, allowing her guard to drop, "still not used to your...er.. pet. Hey, of course I'm in one piece!" She piped up, feigning indignance, placing a hand on her hip, "Why wouldn't I be? I was more surprised you got back in one piece after what happened out there. I thought you were whalemeat..." she trailed off into a chuckle, as if to imply that she was joking. Even though she wasn't. Everything had happened so fast out there, and mistakes had been made.
Well, at least the people she had surrounded herself with had some fucking clue what they were doing. Although she had been in Torchline for a short time, she was starting to like it and the people she'd met. It would suck major ass if they all died in some terrible, otherworldly accident. Unfortunately, that wasn't far-fetched...
She walked over, looking over the punching bag that Sunjata had been using. She tested the material with her hand and made a 'tsk' noise. Turning back to him, she said with a daring smirk, "I came to train - but I prefer live dummies."

and I've been thinking that when we thought
the world would break us, that we weren't wrong
the world would break us, that we weren't wrong
