Drahp Chopin. No. Mozart. No. Brahms! No, no. Liszt. Hmm. Maybe. But... no! Bartók. Béla Bartók. Yesss! Excellent choice! Piano Sonata in E Major! Definately! The most awesome piece of music ever ever ever!!! Colette jumped out of her bed early in the morning after she got the news last night that a new drop has just arrived, and for some reason unknown to her - let's just call it intuition or magic third eye - she knew this time she got a pack waiting for her. And more importantly, she knew it's her synthesizer! What else could it be? It's gonna be the greatest day in her life since she arrived to this awful place. Finally, she'll be able to jump into the wonderful all-encompassing world of music again. She decided she's gonna play the piano for three days straight, not caring about anything else, after she's got back from the drop. She made a giant list in her mind about the pieces and songs she'll play, but needed to decide the very first one to play. And it was a difficult choice. She had to eliminate all the unworthy candidates and finally choose the most eternal piece of music ever. And so, she succeeded. She arrived to the drop point quite early, and found she was alone there. The packs of the dropped objects were lying around, untouched. So, I'm here first, she thought, and began to search for her synthesizer. It took her a few minutes until she found a container with her name scribed on it - indeed, it was there! Her heartbeat almost stopped for a second, as her mind devulged into a dopamine overdose. She quickly, desperately opened the box to find... her large medkit inside! "Oh, well...", she shook her head in disappointment, realizing she'll have to wait who knows how many countless months until she'll finally be able to play again. All the excitement she had suddenly disappeared. No Bartók. No Liszt. No Mozart. No three-day piano marathon. But then, she quickly realized that, in fact, this drop had to happen. She was basically out of medical supplies as her small kit didn't contain as much materiel to meet the first aid needs of such a large colony. But now these problems were over - with this fortunate drop, she now had enough supplies to last for eternity. Or well, almost eternity. And also, now she had a much more sophisticated collection of equipment at her disposal, and a much larger variety of drugs and medicines. The Flying Spaghetti Monster works in mysterious ways, the young Canadian smiled, and packed up the medkit to carry it back home.

For someone who had spent their entire life alone, Talwyn was trying to spread her wings. Figuratively of course. First she had tried to have a stand for trading at Nemus, but people kept looking at her slightly weirdly. And now she was at the drop again, inspite of the fact that she doubted anything there was for her. She was not disappointed, although had been a little hopeful Luna had been there. Of course, she knew before even arriving that she wasn’t as her hawk Zip showed no signs of familiarity when they reached the drop. The lone girl was attempting to talk to some short and gruff watcher, exclaiming about how she thinks that perhaps the gentleman was a bit too short to be a watcher. After all, people could just walk right over him. Then Colette flashed in her periphreial. She walked away, mid sentence, pushing past anyone in her way without a care in the world and that usual little skip in her step.... Hell, the girl even took pleasure in running for her life from Vespers or getting knocked around by giant worms. She had not attempted to ride one again, but you better believe she would try a few more times. She was adamant she was just going about the whole situation the wrong way. Maybe try to find a baby first. That was her goal after returning from the drop. ”Healer! Hi!” What was the girls name again? She had forgotten. Healer seemed to work fine though, as names were uninteresting anyways. Why would you ever want to be called something someone else named you? What a silly thing. Luckily she was able to name herself when she became five years of age. She hadn’t seen Colette since the Scorch. She hadn’t seen her in the daylight, but she remembered fondly of the little contraption mirror the girl had that played music. It was perhaps the fondest memory she had of being on PE. To be able to dance, so freely, and have the music building in that small cave was magic. That was the reason she had spent the rest of the Scorch hiding away, widdling away for her violin. She had the urge to create, and when that happened she became one with her own world. So she had Colette to thank for that, even if she had suddenly and abruptly vanished away from the healer the night they met. The girl was dressed in her surprisingly white sundress, with her violin strapped around her shoulders awkwardly via a vine, and her toolkit slung as well. Along her beltline there was another twine, fastening a few wooden daggers with intricate designs of wolves and hawks. Her feet, as always, were bare and padding along the uneven ground effortlessly. And, to finish off the look, was her innocently beaming smile as she skipped towards her healer acquaintance. ”Hi! Why do you look so sad?” Curiosity compelled her to ask whatever crossed her mind, her head tilting slightly to the side as blues watched and studied the healers face. She had noted that the kit Colette had opened, was definitely not what she was wanting.

| e zra woke up that morning feeling great. news that another drop had landed spread quickly through nemus. the whispers had barely touched her ears before she left. what a great reason to get away from that annoying ass colony! she fashioned a pouch from large leaves dipped in melted plastic, with small vines tied at the ends so she could sling it over her shoulder. ezra didn't really have much except for her journal and canteen. she prayed that someone would forget their items in the drop and she'd be able to snag it. the journey alone was pleasant. quiet, which was something she missed in the bustle of the colony. the occasional screeches of vespers in the distance were calming. only because they weren't out for blood, that is. ezra saw small shapes in the distance. people! she rushed, eager to sneak through the items that were dropped. she wasn't surprised when she saw talwyn first. she was all over the place it seemed! as long as we don't get into trouble this time. ezra waved and walked over. "hey! did you get something?" she asked, skirting around her to the bins. excitement coursed through her veins when there was one with her name on it! finally! her books had arrived, and she carefully placed them in her pouch. ezra was so focused, she completely looked over the other girl that was there. she had half a mind to ignore her completely, but like talwyn, she might surprise her. 'sup? you get something too?" ezra asked, carrying a more formal tone. the blonde was really cute, but until she learned more about her, she was going to keep an emotional distance. |

Drahp Colette was packing up when she heard someone addressing her as "Healer" (seriously??), and noticed Elizabeth, the girl whose injuries she treated the other day. It was a pleasant surprise, and lightened her mood a bit, as she smiled in the newcomer's direction. Liz was probably the weirdest person around here, even more weird than her, which made Colette sympathize with the girl immediately. She was seriously mentally ill, having to deal with a split personality, which needed serious and professional treatment, something Col couldn't prove her with, but at least she could try and serve as an informal therapist and, more importantly, a friend. She was naturally drawn to Elizabeth's childlike, naive personality, and also felt a great deal of curiosity towards her. She wanted to know more about her story, her background, but she didn't want to let her 'professional' (or so-called 'professional') interest get in the way of her feelings of friendship. She noticed that Liz carried her violin strepped on herself, which made her think of her long lost synthesizer again, and feel just how unfair life can be. Some people can carry their instruments with themselves anywhere they go. But not her. She had to wait until the next drop, or the one after that, or the one twenty years from now until she could finally play Bartók or anything. Why did I chose piano the first place? Why did my parents chose piano for me? What were they thinking? Of course, dad wanted me to continue in his footsteps, becoming a celebrated concert pianist, something he aspired to, but never came to be. Yeah. That's it. "Look who's here! Elizabeth, Queen of England herself!", the young Canadian smiled as she approached the other girl, "How are you? What've youbeen up to lately?", she asked, then smirked, when she thought about Liz's imaginary friend, "And how's Collie?"Elizabeth, with her usual on-to-the-point demeanour, not much trained in social skills, asked her why does she feel sad. The girl was good observer, that's for sure. She could've been a great therapist, Col thought with a smile, I should get an appointment with her. "I'm not sad. Just disappointed.", she replied, not much convincingly, "But that happens often in life.", she shrugged. Then, another person arrived to the drop, this time someone Col was not familiar with. It was another girl, greeting the two of them. She apparently knew Elizabeth, as she was much more easy-going with her and more reserved when talking to me, Colette thought. It was one of those things psychologists easily grasp when observing someone. The girl searched the drop for her belongings, then found a pack of books waiting for her. So, she's a reader. Good, Col thought. She had hundreds of books stored digitally in her small tablet device, and could read them anytime she wanted, but having real books - that was something different. She loved the touch, the feel, the smell of books, rolling the pages, feeling the paper with her fingers. That was pure magic. She envied a bit the newcomer for having real books of her own even if their number was much lesser than her collection of digitalized volumes. "Yeah, I got all my medical stuff.", she replied to the girl's question, "Now I can save the colony from an outbreak of the Martian flu.", she joked, then glanced at the stranger and her package, "I love books."

Elizabeth? Who was Elizabeth? Oh. Right. Her. Talwyn smiled, it faltered only when Colette asked about her friend Collie. She was not so used to someone blatantly talking abou ther imaginary friend, and it put her a bit on edge - Probably mostly because she knew Colette still wanted to dig in her head like she was a labratory rat. Wyn's attention had already drifted and was studying the things Colette was looking att. Her eyes scanned the area, before listening to Colette explain why she was disappointed. brows furrowing ever so slightly. "Do not be disappointed, after all, at least you got something. And that something must have been very important for you to bring it all the way here. Be excited!" Because while it may not be what Colette was looking for, it was still something of importance. Perhaps Colette just needed to realize that and then may--Oh! Adventure friend! Talwyn's excitement peaked as Ezra appeared. Wyn instantly flung her arms around the girls neck, hugging her close as if she hadn't seen her in forever. Which, to be honest, she didn't even remember how long it had been. Poor Poor Ezra, the only image Talwyn remembered was how she was so scared all the time. but it was okay, because Wyn protected her. As that is what she always did. "I got nothing. II ame to see everyone. They are all so excited all the time, it is a joy to see them! What did you get? Can I see?" Then talwyn let go over Ezra, almost as quickly as she had hugged her, and skirted around Colette before snagging a book out of her hand and very emphasisingly, took a big wiff. "Oh my goodness Colette, it smells like...like..home! How beautiful! Oh! I wish i could smell like this.."

| i spy with my little eye, a care package! daario had spent most of his time on PE establishing himself on mt intego (with exception of a vesper run in at exurbia, but that’s an entirely different story) and was ready to get things moving once more. he already had a good set up – he moved rocks and molded them together with a mix of mud and thick clay, creating a rock igloo. most people had flimsy shelters of tarp and twine, while his could withstand a hell of a storm. wind, rain, sand, you name it and he was sure it would remain strong. he felt great here, like his time was worthwhile. The life he had back on earth running a business was meaningless and so he chose to forget it. strong in body and mind, living in the present. daario had taken his time traveling to the drop point. he studied the area, creating a mental map should he run into any trouble. Most people left him to his own accord, which he appreciated, but it never hurt to be prepared. rumors told him that there were scavengers – both human and not – that preyed around the drop point for food and supplies. he would have none of it if any of his things landed. with a quick stride, he made way to the drop point. to his surprise, a few people were already crowded around the dropped items, just casually chatting. how can one feel late for something there was no invitation for? daario jogged in, making sure to greet everyone before he searched through the bins. lets see, there was girl with long black hair, girl with blonde hair, and girl with short dark hair and a mean frown. He flashed them each his signature grin and casual nod. “how’s it going ladies?” from the corner of his eye he spotted his name – yes! daario wasn’t entirely sure what he was getting, but something was better than none. he secretly hoped his blacksmith kit didn’t arrive first, it would be no use without the anvil and he didn’t want to carry the extra gear if he didn’t have to. Drum roll please? daario carefully opened his bin to find...his ar-15 rifle and ammo. he let out an excited whoop, checking it for any scratches. nope, she was as beautiful as ever. he quickly loaded a clip, and stored the rest of the ammo in the small rucksack he made. (technically he didn’t make it, it was an old potato sack that was painted. dont ruin it for him, though) daario was so focused on his gun that he hadn’t continued conversation with the others. oops he made himself comfortable leaning on the bin (how did it even support his weight?) and disassembled his rifle for cleaning. "don't think ive met any of you before. im daario, pleasure to meet you all," he waved simply. |

| e zra zra returns talwyns hug with a light tap on the back. awe, she was already warming up to the not-so-surprise embraces. still, she felt a little awkward. i mean, hugging her in front of someone she didn't know felt oddly.. personal? she felt like she would have a more difficult time keeping her badass lone wolf persona, but at the same time it was nice to have that friendly greeting. ezra cleared her throat and ran a hand through her hair. "oh you're a medic. tough gig." she had seen plenty of battle wounds in her time - some were hers and some were others' that she caused - and it could be such a gruesome sight. it took a certain amount of mental stability to be able to stitch an open wound. ezra didn't like to admit it but blood made her faint in the knees. keep that inside, thank you very much. "what all do you have in there?" she licked her lips hungrily, hoping she had some vodka for disinfectant. just ONE sip would make her whole day. "i love books." the girl replied. ezra grinned, taking one from her pouch. they weren't really much - how to make fires, numerous shelters and countless weapons from household items or nature. the others instructed on how to break a wrist with minimal effort, master the one inch punch (thanks bruce lee) and break out of a chokehold etc etc. she never really took the time to learn these things on earth, and felt it would be valuable knowledge on the planet that wants to kill you. "here you can look at th-" ezra stopped short when talwyn snatched the book from her hand and danced away behind the blonde, nose deep in the pages. "careful tal, if you smell too hard the words will come off the page and get stuck in your nose!" she teased, snickering. a shape in the distance caught her attention. ah, someone else joining them? her excitement faded as she realized it was some meat head with wiggly eyebrows. ezra cast a side glance at him, then rolled her eyes. ugh, get a load of this guy she nodded a simple greeting back, but kept her attention focused on the girls. |

Drahp
Now it was truly apparent that Liz and the new girl knew each other already, indicated by the awkward hug Liz gave to the newcomer, who apparently wasn't much thrilled by this (as Mr. Spock would say) outburst of emotionalism. She observed the new girl, who seemed to be feeling a bit uncomfortable around, but neverthless, she was trying to interact and blend in with the others. "Yeah, tough gig.", she smiled at the stranger, trying to look friendly, "Well, it basically have everything I need. If someone falls from a cliff or gets a stomacache from eating too much of this alien whoknowswhat meat, they can just ring me. Now I have everything from an MRI scanner to a pack of leeches and voodoo dolls.", she explained when she inquired about the contents of her large medical package, hoping she would get the sarcasm in her words.
Turning back to Elizabeth, Col again realized just how observant this woman was, and how much she tried to help her in her own way, which was kinda cute. "Hey, don't worry about me. Really.", she shrugged, "I'm happy. Truly am. I got a great big package and it's truly useful for my work. In fact, I don't have to rely on medieval medicine techinques anymore. Now I have a portable hospital on my disposal.", she smiled, "I just miss playing the piano.", she then added, with a nostalgic smile, thinking about Bartók and Chopin like old friends she was missing quite much.
Colette looked at the books the new girl was holding. Not exactly Tolstoy or James Joyce, she thought, reading their titles: mostly survival guides and combat technique manuals. Useful, of course, on a place like this, but totally boring. But before she could actually read into them, Liz suddenly grabbed the book from her hand, and began to obsessively smell it, looking like a Buddhist monk who just reached the state of Nirvana. The other girl's remark was quite good, almost as if it were made by Col herself, she had to admit. But something else came as the true surprise. How did she address Liz? What was going on? "Tal? Who's Tal?", she asked the two others surprised, "I thought you're called Elizabeth.", she then looked at 'Liz'.
Then, to add something brand new to the mix, another person arrived, another newcomer, but this time a man. And he was a sight to behold. A tall, burly bald guy, so muscle-bound he looked like a WWE wrestler or something. And it seemed he even had the demeanour of a wannabe wrestler, as he made some forced 'signature move' and addressed the 'ladies' like if they were just waiting for a big hulky man like him to cheer them up. Oh, yeah, another great representation of the eternal male ego, she smirked, like if we didn't already have that on this planet. Neverthless, his introduction seemed friendly enough, so, hopefully we can get along. Also, before even hearing his real name, she named this newcomer 'Mr. Clean' based on his physical similarities to a well-known advertising figure.
"Hello there, Mr. Daario.", she turned to the guy who towered over her like some statue, responding to his introduction. Then, she realized she haven't even introduced herself to the girl with the books, "I'm Nicolette Anna Blanchet. Anna after my grandma's first name. She was the first Canadian woman who used a refrigerator as a musical instrument.", she said with a large ear-to-ear Jaws 4D smile.
She then watched as the wannabe wrestler took out a large rifle from his package, and began to clean it. Yeah, another useful tool just like her medial equipment. It seems everyone around here knew how to use such weaponry, except her. In fact, she never even fired a gun before. Back on Earth, she was a vocal pacifist, one of those 'flower power kids', and totally condemned the use of firearms. She even signed petitions to make gun laws more strict in Canada. But here, everything was different. Here rifles and large knives were the means of survival and not the playtoys of guys with a small penis, and she realized it might be useful to learn how to use them. She'd had a better chance against those giant worms and Mugatos out there. That was something she scribed on her non-existent 'to do' list.

Talwyn actually snorted a laugh at Ezra’s comment about the letters getting stuck in her nose. She opened the book and ran her fingers along the paper, before slowly turning the page. The feeling was like home, it really was. She could remember days and days of just sitting with Collie in the treetops, reading out Alice in the Looking glass, one of her favorite books, or a midnight summers dream. Laughing at Puck, delighting as the words created their own world. Talwyn wished she’d brought her books, but she didn’t have time. Didn’t think of it. Finger tips dancing over the pages before she snapped the book shut and placed it back to Colette with a thankful smile. She’d forgotten she’d given her a fake name. ”I gave you the wrong name.” Bluntness. Definitely bluntness. “I thought it would be nice to be called Elizabeth by someone. I think it is a pretty name. ” To be honest, she had no malicious intent when she gave a fake name, it was just something she did randomly, because why not? Elizabeth was pretty, and Talwyn wished she’d chosen that as her name some times so, why not? Oh no. Colette will probably want to identify if this meant she had more than one personality or something. Luckily the conversation was easily distracted away - or so she hoped – although she doubted Colette was one to let things slide – when a lumbering man came up to them with a gun. Her eyes widened slightly at the sight of him. For someone who had met very few people in her life, the giant was …well…just that. A Giant. Instinctively she maneuevered herself closer to Ezra, slightly behind her, feeling an overwhelming feeling as she slipped her hand into Ezra’s. How did one single person have such large hands? Such large arms! Imagine how easily he could chop down a tree. The thought flickered in her mind, a reasonable thought, which only meant it probably came from Collie. Because Talwyn was both fascinated and…terrified. ”You look like Goliath.” Was her simple statement, wide brilliant blue eyes looking from behind Ezra, wishing that perhaps a small part of her was behind Colette as she was quite a bit taller (ha). “Why are you so big? Did you eat a village? And do you always go up to women and load your gun in front of them. Seems a little silly to me. How do you even hold the gun without snapping it in half? Oh my god. Can you snap it in half?” Talwyn, was rattling anything that popped into her head at that exact moment Apparently the best defense was to just ask whatever you could possibly think of. Check.

| d aario flexed his chest a bit when nicolette called him mr daario. oh yeah he could get used to that. he regarded her with interest when she continued talking. usually people would just introduce themselves (as he did) and leave it at that. he was quick to reassemble his gun and place it to the side. daario turned back to her - wait was she staring at his bald head? he liked it better this way! "i'm curious nicolette.. what exactly does a refrigerator sound like? if music be the food of love, play on," he had never met a canadian before, and right now they were sounding quite mythical. he winked at her. daario wasn't quite sure what to say next, and he was semi grateful when the other girl started talking. he chuckled deeply when she called him a goliath. wait why was she hiding behind mean faced girl? "why are you so big?" he opened his mouth to answer, only to have more questions shot at him. "how do you hold the gun without snapping it in half?" he lifted his pointer finger, eager to reply, but stopped short when she continued on. daario dropped his pointer finger to his lap awkwardly. he cleared his throat and stood up, wiping the grease from his hands onto his pants. "well to answer your question...s" he picked up the ar, "i've never brought this gun around women," which is true, the only guns he had ALL the time prior to were the ones connected to his upper torso, if you catch the drift. "and im not sure i could snap it, wouldn't serve any good anyways!" he quickly unloaded the clip and shook out a couple bullets from the chamber. daario gave it one quick look over before offering it to the girls. "want to hold it?" he glanced at colette and arched his brow. he noticed she was eyeing it suspiciously so he was unsure if she'd take it. he was actually suspicious of letting the other girl have it, but she just seemed curious, and it was completely unloaded so there wasn't much damage to be done. |

| e zra listened intently to what colette was saying, but quickly realized she was getting bullshitted. her expression hardened at this realization. she was mad, but only because she got outsmarted. try harder next time or don't be so damn easy to figure out! "voodoo dolls, eh? i've heard of a crazy witch lady in nemus, careful if you run into her!" she joked, hoping to lighten the tension. ezra snorted at colette's semi confused expression - tal was elizabeth or was elizabeth tal? she had definitely learned to expect the unexpected when she was around. hawks, vespers, fake names, little wooden daggers and who knows what else? she felt...kinda small and unassuming when talwyn shifted slightly behind her. ezra made every attempt to stand taller, leaning slightly onto the balls of her feet. she squeezed talwyns hand reassuringly. "he's not that scary," she whispered over her shoulder. without realizing, ezra snorted her disapproval when colette called him mr daario. she quickly wiped her nose on her sleeve, hoping no one noticed. ah let's just give into the male ego! no, he could stand to get a little emotional beating. how about mr high and mighty instead? that was definitely more befitting of shiny cue ball over there. ezra was quick to snatch the gun from his grasp when he offered it. oh shit! its heavy she remembered the last time she held a gun. the feeling is powerful, addicting almost. her arms were already getting tired of holding it. she jerked the gun up, resting the hilt in her left shoulder. she peered through the scope, scanning the grasslands far off to the west. "eh, not bad," ezra shrugged, handing the ar off to colette. she considered giving it to talwyn just for shits and giggles, but was wary on how she would react. if cue ball didn't clear all the bullets, the kid might accidentally shoot someone. hopefully daario. |

Drahp Colette almost laughed when 'Elizabeth' (or Talwyn as she was really called) told her she gave a false name because she thought it'd be nice to have someone call her that way. Elizabeth is a pretty name, she actually agreed on that. This was so pure and so child-like, so much missing from the so-called 'normal' and 'adult' people, it almost made her want to hug the other girl. Rather, she just gave her a big friendly Col-ish smile, sort of as a sign of forgiveness. "If that's the case, you know, I can actually call you Elizabeth.", she said, "I like that name too.""Crazy witch lady?", Col then looked at the other girl, who had not yet identified herself by name, "I'm sure I need to arrange an appointment with her. My left ankle is hurting like hell since last week. I might be cursed or something.", she laughed slightly. Then, there was 'Mr. Clean', the muscle man, who didn't seem to realize she was saying 'Mr.' kind of sarcastically. Rather, he began another large-scale demonstration of an overblown macho man ego, and started to act like if they were all here to get overwhelmed by his greatness. Music the food of love? What kind of awful fake poetry is that? It probably comes from a novel by John Green or Nicholas Sparks or someone else of those who Col truly hoped got killed by a gigantic lava flow when the Earth was destroyed. Definately among the worst 'pick-up lines' she's ever heard in her life. "Well... My grandma made the refrigerator sound like a honky tonk piano in E major. But some other artists, especially in China and the former Yugoslavia could make it sound like a medieval harpsichord.", she explained, telling the guy total nonsense. But hey, what he was telling was totally nonsense too. Then, she just rolled her eyes when Mr. Goliath told them he's never brought this gun around women. Now she was completely sure he had a dick smaller than that of Atom Ant. Right, he certainly knows how to impress girls, she frowned sarcastically, while watching Liz and the other girl reacting to him. Then, American Sniper handed the large gun over to the darkhead to hold it (in fact, he looked at her first, but seeing the not-so-impressed look she gave to the weapon, he decided to give it to the other girl instead), who looked into the scope, sized the giant and apparently heavy gun in her hands, and then suddenly gave it to her. Oh, damn, this IS heavy! Col couldn't even grasp when she was suddenly handed the gigantic weapon, which probably weighted like a thousand kilos. Her being only about 50kg, she felt she needed to be double of that to handle this gun properly. She felt like if her arms were pulled out of her body by a massive force, while trying to hold it. Also, she felt strange. This was probably the first time in her life she carried a real gun, and felt like if she were touching something truly evil, the instrument of the Devil, which will make her hands melt in pain. Never knew this day would come. Neverthless, out of pure curiosity, she raised the gun as much as she could to look into the scope, and try to aim it. It took only about a minute, then she quickly handed it back to André the Giant, relieved that she won't need to carry it anymore. She now felt she needs to make a campfire and sing Kumbaya for hours long straight. "Yeah... not bad...", she said simply with a shrug. Well, next time we'll hopefully have someone's small portable A-bomb arriving or at least some napalm in case we need to discipline those farmers a bit. @wynant ezra kay daario naharis

Talwyn would forever brighten at the thought that Colette didn’t mind the fact she gave her a wrong name. Something about the way the healer offered to continue calling her that actually made her soften inside. She watched her for a moment too long, with a small smile toying on her lips but fought against the urge of hugging her. She still didn’t like psychiatrists. Even if the healer was so very nice to her and had stopped talking to her like she was a child. For some reason people always mistook her as childish. As if, as if she didn’t have emotions like a normal adult. She did, she just didn’t feel like she needed to suppress it like everyone else. What was the point? Of course, any innuendo just went over Talwyn’s head. She was eyeing the gun though, watching from behind tiny short Ezra with curiosity. Her eyes watching down the barrel, but she didn’t reach for it. Guns were unnecessary and just created useless waste. Plus they did more damage then necessary, and were just loud. A nice dagger, a bow and a sharp arrow, they were much more efficient then anything. Plus, unlimited ammo was always nice, especially when they wouldn’t ever know when they’d get more. Her dad had a nice little revolver and double barrelled shotgun growing up, so it wasn’t as if she hadn’t ever seen guns..they just never really interested her all that much. Wyn slung her arms from behind around Ezra’s neck, only for a moment in a quick hug before she pulled away. Whistling to no one in a quick tone, before she flashed a smile towards Colette and then turned to the large man who towered over her. “Mr. Goliath, I do not like you, because you are a bit weird, but I hope you have a very pleasant day.” The statement was matter of fact, blunt, and came with a sweetness to it that was slightly off. The whistle attracted Zip, who came out of no where to circle around them before heading towards the forest. “Ezra, I will miss you.” She was walking away from them suddenly, before pausing just a moment and spinning on her heels to look at Colette. “I like your smile. I will see you again.” Then she left, because, well, time is of the essence. She had things to do. People to see. Okay. So, perhaps it had more to the fact that the towering man made her very uncomfortable. She hadn’t actually been around any other men except her brother, and his stature was just…Too much. Especially with the weird things he was saying. Besides, he didn’t offer the gun to her. That was just...rude.
