A Poisonous Reunion [Amoux]

It was so weird, meeting up with a friend, no, his best friend from wind reach, and having her NOT be angry with him. He could easily tell that she was doubting her self worth. She looked ashamed, muddled up in her thoughts and just… well… overwhelmed. Arvo didn’t feel any of these things, but he did feel the need to point out to her what should have been obvious anyway. “Moxy, If I didn’t have you, I would have gotten to a much darker place, much more quickly. If I didn’t have you, I’d probably become a true Psychopath. I mean… you haven’t heard my” He shook his head. It was a good thing she couldn’t read his “Just… just don’t think that I don’t appreciate you, or that you’re worthless, is all. I’m just a selfish asshole who only thought about my own problems instead of thinking about you.” He smiled sheepishly ”I did miss you."

Amoux said she’d react in the same way, but Arvo doubted it. Not only that, but it hadn’t been the heat of the moment, Arvo had been calculating it since the day he was attacked. He’d had plenty of time to back out, but the urge to kill him had only strengthened with time. Still, what’s done was done, and he and Moxy had a lot of catching up to do. “Don’t worry, I got it. But you can come with me if you want.” He suggested hoisting the sack onto his shoulder “I’ve got to take this back to my, uh, Boss, Kane Baker he runs ‘Baker's Butchery and Bakeshop’ “ He told her “I guess it’s kind of a step down from being an Avora hunter in wind reach, but it keeps me fed, I guess” He said with a shrug.

The hunters eyes drifted towards where the city was and he frowned “You been here long?” Arvo asked her “You came at a pretty dangerous time, you know.” He looked at her “Where are you living?”

A Poisonous Reunion [Amoux]

Postby Amoux on August 28th, 2014, 1:51 am

"I know," She sighed, bending to pick up the mushrooms that she had thrown and stuffing them quickly back into her bag. "But we can put it behind us now, after all, we should be thanking the gods for just being able to see each other again!" She laughed lightly, stepping back to give Arvo room as he picked up his kill. She pulled her bag more securely onto her shoulder.

Smirking Amoux nodded, falling into step beside Arvo as they started back toward the city. "Yeah, it's probably better I follow you. Knowing my luck I'll get myself lost." Amoux followed Arvo's gaze back in the direction of the city and suppressed a heavy sigh. "I've only been here a few days, long enough to see some pretty disturbing stuff though. People warned me about how crazy this place was, but it does seem a lot worse that I had thought." She replied, remembering the first day she had arrived, being warned by a one legged man to be wary when drinking the water. "What about you? Did you come straight here from Windreach?"

"The Tent City." Amoux laughed, a little embarrassed at the fact that she was living out of a tent. It didn't much bother her though, after a season or so she should be able to save enough of her wages to buy her own apartment.

Arvo nodded but didn’t respond verbally. “Hows Turrin, I wonder…” He muttered, more to himself than anything. He felt like such a coward. He knew, as an endal, there was no way he’d be able to find Arvo in Sunberth. It wasn’t a city Windreach traded with. If Arvo was going to die one day, it would only be at Turrin’s hands. That was only fair wasn’t it? He doubted Amoux would be as okay with this plan as he was though. “Ah, no. I traveled around for a long time first.” He said “I uh… I don’t know, it’s hard for me to fit in anywhere I guess. Sunberth was the only place where no one seemed to give a shyke. I can sort of blend in with average humans. Sort of.” He shrugged, opting not to tell her he was also hiding like a little bitch.

“Yeah, right now there is unrest between the gangs and magic users, everything is becoming more dangerous. Just being on the streets for too long is dangerous” He looked at Amoux “Do you want to stay with me? I mean, I only have one bed so one of us will have to take turns using it, but at least I can make sure you’re safe.” He would actually be devastated if she was killed. He hadn’t realized just how much he’d missed her company until he’d seen her. Now the thought of losing her again, for good, it’d drive him insane.

That was a strange feeling. He couldn’t name it. Usually he was number one, but in a way, he knew he’d give his life for Moxy’s. And he also knew she’d probably do the same. She was much more passionate and loyal than Arvo was ever going to be and he admired her for it. They walked through the city and Arvo made it to the butchers. Stepping inside, he briefly exchanged greetings with Kane, before leaving his kill in the back room behind the store and leaving the store again.

This changed a lot of things, even though it didn’t have to. Moxy might get killed here, and when things erupted, he knew he’d eventually have to leave. Then his past might really catch up with him. He couldn’t predict how he’d react at the point of death, but he assumed he wouldn’t just lay down and take it. Even if he did deserve it.

Amoux glanced at Arvo quickly as he murmured to himself, catching mention of the name Turrin. She hadn't known the other boy well back in Windreach, but she knew Arvo had been friends with him, after all, it was how he'd meet Kaya. Not for the first time Amoux wondered what Arvo was thinking about, but she didn't ask for fear of annoying him. He's so closed of sometimes... She thought with a slight sinking feeling.

"Are you sure? I don't want to be a bother." Amoux grinned and glanced at Arvo from the corner of her eye. "I guess we're too old to go top to tail now, huh?" She teased, lightly prodding him with her elbow. "Besides, I can just use my bedroll, it's more than enough." At least this way I have a guarantee that I'll be able to see him again. She was half afraid that he would try to sneak off and leave Sunberth without telling her. She realizedI guess I'll need to build up trust with him again.

Amoux waited for Arvo outside of the butcher and bent to pet his dog and scratch behind her ear. As he came back she glanced up at him, "Whats her name?" She asked, smiling easily in a way that only cute animals could make her. She straightened and fell back into step with Arvo. "Well, I need to go and grab my gear from Tent City, I'll meet you at The Pigs Foot?" She said finally, gently smiling and gesturing in the direction she would have to head to get to collect her tent and belongings

Amoux’s comment made Arvo chuckle “Hah! Yeah, maybe a little too old.” He said poking her back and allowing himself to relax a little again. He was relieved she’d said yes. He could keep an eye on her this way. And she was probably going to do the same, in case he were to just up and leave again. That trust between them would have to be built up again. Arvo wouldn’t trust him if he were her.

After he was done in the butchers Amoux asked him what his dog was called “Marci” Arvo said with a smile “Bought her to retrieve my kills if they were far away. Really cuts down hunting time. Plus, people think twice about attacking a man with a dog.” Marci gave a yip of agreement as she nuzzled into Amoux’s hand. “I think she likes you. You’re lucky, she’s very picky.”

Arvo nodded when she mentioned the Pigs foot “Yeah. Sure.” He said, speaking common again now that they were in the City’s confines again. Sunberthians tended to distrust outsiders, so it was better not to be heard tweeting like a bird, especially if they were going anywhere near a tavern. Especially the pigs foot, the most popular tavern in all of Sunberth. “I’ll go and get my sword and restock my arrows. Meet you outside.” He smile “Later I’ll get buy yer a drink? Recon I owe ya.”
