Maeve
Unfortunately for her she doesn't catch the panther shift. Which is a real shame. Mostly because he's told her he would show her more. Maeve plucks her boots and her basket from the sand, tucking her arm through the handle of the basket before beaming up at him brightly. "I knew you enjoyed my company too much to send me away." She tease with a wink, bumping into his side as they start back up the path towards the city proper. With a quick pitstop at the clinic for Sunjata to gather the wheelbarrow, they're soon on their way towards their destinations.
She walks with him in companionable silence, considering the events of the day and all that transpired between them. His confession about Safrin and the baby. The fear of being like his father and losing those most important to him in his life. It's a heavy load for anyone to carry. Even someone as strong as Sunjata can't bare that burden alone. Maeve's turning all of this over in her mind as they walk, letting the quiet settle between them until they're reaching the Slagveld to drop off his supplies.
Her steps slow and she comes to a stop, gazing up at him, "I can make it back the rest of the way back from here. I know you have plenty to do." Maeve murmurs, stepping closer and easily finding his hand and giving it a squeeze. She rises up on her tip toes, pressing a kiss to his cheek if he bends down to meet her. "If you need anything you know where to find me and if I don't hear from you I'm definitely going to come find you. So keep that in mind." Maeve lowers herself back onto her feet, giving his hand one more squeeze but not releasing him just yet.
