Arabella glanced at the others, how could they keep walking?!? She stumbled again. She wished she could fall and never get up. That sounded nice. To just lay down for eternity. Yes. That sounds perfect. She tripped for real and landed on her knees, reopening cuts from previous falls and creating new ones. “Fuck.” She slowly rose from the ground. walk. Just walk.
Azriel, who hadn't understood anything anyone had said, reached out an arm to help Arabella up. She didn't understand why the girl couldn't walk like a normal human, but maybe she was like a small child and needed assistance? No one would let her help them, so the journey had been more difficult for them than it had been for her. She was starving and in a constant state of nausea, but at least she wasn't exhausted from walking.
Arabella took Azriel hand and smiled at her, hoping she would get that it meant thanks. Quit being so pitifully clumsy you freak! She just had to walk a little bit longer and- she stumbled again. It didn’t matter, her pride had vanished long ago.
Sighing slightly, Azriel folded her wings at her sides and put an arm around Arabella to help her walk, manipulating the wind to push her along. It was confusing, the way Arabella was acting, but then, she supposed, she hadn't met many humans. Maybe they were all like this.
Arabella sighed a sigh of relief as she felt the wind push her along. This was so much easier than trying to walk by herself. Azriel was so lucky. Lucky she wasn’t tired, but lucky she had someone who cared about her. i wonder what she’s like.
Azriel shivered slightly, but continued gliding along with her arm around Arabella. If the girl fell one more time, she didn't think she would have the willpower to pick her up again.
The walk continued in silence. yay! More tension! Just what we need!
(Btw, sorry if my character is acting weirdly feisty, it feels like that to me, but I’m doing another character that is really mean, Emmy knows. She’s, -my character- well, interesting.)
(Yeah she's a little brat. Lmao, I'm kidding, I'm just babysitting and annoyed at children atm XD)
(I walked 6 miles today. I’m cranky. I normally walk 1. At most.)
(I usually run 4 miles every day, but I stopped so I'm confused at life)
Iris’s silver eyes sharpened as she watched Azriel gently bring an arm around the human. Well, didn’t they looked cosy. Right, left, right, left. Arabella even smiled at her. Left. Her angel. Right. Her cheeks flushed with newfound warmth, as she stared at the ground. Left, right. She death-glared the snow, a queasy feeling spooling into her stomach. At some point her weary feet had begun stomping. Her hair fell over her face, masking the scowl. Left. Right. Left.
Arabella glanced at Iris. Was she jealous? I should step away from Azriel. Bella smiled at Azriel one last time to thank her and stepped away. She walked over to Iris, “what’s wrong, Iris? And don’t say nothing.”
(Nuuu add some drama XD)
Azriel looked over confusedly, but wrapped her wings around herself again. "Are you alright?" She asked both Iris and Arabella.
“If anyone here has something wrong, it’s you,” the elf’s icy voice mumbled in Medein, muffled by a curtain of hair darker than the night. It was surprising the damned snow wasn’t steaming, by now, after thoroughly withstanding Iris’s searing glare.
Bella quickened her pace and hurried away from Iris. Yeesh. What was wrong with her? She was jealous. But why? Azriel was just being friendly. They couldn’t even talk.
Brow furrowing in confusion, Azriel glided over to Iris. "Have I done something?Whatever I've done, I'm sorry, I'd never intend to hurt you," she explained emphatically.
Clare rolled her eye's, they were wasting time talking, it wasn't a good idea to talk when you're this dead, It brought nothing bad bad feelings and broken hearts. "Hate to break up the tension but I think I've found a place to settle down." She pointed up wards and to the left where the opening of a cave could be seen.
Bella ran over to the cave and flopped to the ground. “Yes!’
"You didn't do anything wrong," she muttered, her Brachish weary. She kept breathing, ignoring the irrational bouts of jealousy consuming her. At the cave entrance, Iris deflated, huddling herself onto the firmness beneath her feet, barely conscious for two minutes before her eyes sealed shut. The guilt of her unspoken apology to Arabella lingered in the air as she gave way to a dreamless sleep.
Arabella watched as Iris fell right alseep. How do people do that? Bella knee she couldn’t. She couldn’t sleep well. Ugh.
Azriel uncertainly lowered herself to the ground, looking around wearily. Everyone else would be sleeping soon. But what if something happened? Or the elves found them? No, she wasn't going to sleep. She couldn't, not with that kind of fear lingering in the back of her mind. Besides, they should always have someone on watch anyway.
Clare placed a hand on Azriel's shoulder, "Go to sleep little one, I'll watch for now." Clare settled down at the cave entrance, out of all of them she was the lest effected by this cold. A small fire cat sprung from her fingers and jumped onto Azriel's lap, she sent another to Bella.
“Hey Kitty! Do they have names?” Arabella scratched the cat behind the ears, under the chin, and at the base of its tail. “I absolutely adore felines! Aren’t they just spectacular!?!” Bella had a huge grin on her face. “And their claws! Especially big cats, they can do some awesome damage. And the way they can sneak up on you when they hunt is amazing! I wish I could be that stealthy and that powerful. I mean, look how dangerous they can be! But they are just so so cute!!!”
Azriel froze, then snorted. "Little one? I'm about 200 years older than you," she replied, crossing her arms defiantly.
(Azriel can't understand her)
Clare smiled at Bella's enthusiasm, "The one you have there is Breeze, the one on Azriel's lap is Serra." another feline spiraled into the air and landed gracefully on it's feet, the massive cat brushed it's head against Clare's hand, she smiled , "This is Mira, she can never decide if she's a itty bitty house cat or a massive tiger, looks like she's a tiger today aren't you girl."
“Hey Breeze! Your so adorable and fierce!” Bella okayed with Breeze for a while. She knew she wouldn’t be sleeping tonight.
Clare raised her eye brow and Breeze vanished, the temperature around Bella dropped significantly, "Hey if you want the cat you have to at least try to sleep, I'll dim the brightness of their flames the most I can but they're purpose is to keep you warm, I don't want any frozen people." She waved her hand and Breeze popped back up and curled up at Bella's feet.
(Azriel can't understand her)
(Frickity fracking heck sorry)
