Moxie smiled at his insistence and agreed, that it was probably indeed not going to come out in the wash. Though she was still not going to accept it, how could she? She barely knew the man, it felt like she would be taking advantage of his kindness if she were to. Though a little browsing would not hurt, she may of over looked something from earlier, besides she could not say no to his company as it was starting to grow on her. She was not very social and found it difficult to make friends since she had been in the grand city, so with that in mind she relented to him.
She could not help the loud sigh of relief that came from her mouth when he said they would not be riding the horse again. Moxie was fond of animals, the horse was kind, but riding on the horse was something entirely different. She had never been horse back riding, it made her feel a little less adequate in a place where it was common. Moxie felt as though she should go seek out lessons on riding a horse after this day though. That way she would not be so humiliated at her not so marvelous skills.
As they walked the road in silence, she felt comfortable. It was not an awkward silence, just calm and gave her time to think of the events thus far of the day. She had not expected to be on such an adventure when she came to the Outpost. Moxie figured it was a tranquil setting and would find herself bored, though excited to see somewhere new. When she woke up, who would of thought, that today would of led to trying something new, as well as being frightened to her core. She did not regret it though, because she did get to meet Theo and his company was much appreciated. Moxie found herself at a loss of words at times with him though, not sure of how to respond and it made her feel a little embarrassed. He did not seem to notice though and continued being his cheerful self, which liked about him.
As they walked the Konti could not help but notice Theo glancing over at her ever so often. It made he want to brush her face, perhaps there was something on it, that he kept staring at. She wasn't sure but the gaze made her feel a little self-conscious about her appearance. Moxie knew she was something a little uncommon, with her porcelain white skin, the iridescent scales, purple eyes, and stark white hair she did tend to stand out. With that knowledge she brushed off the feeling as him just glancing at her awkward features.
At the sound of Theo's voice she glanced over, listening to him speak. She was a little shocked that he liked her presence at that creepy house. She did not feel like she was much of any help, but it did make her feel the warmth of happiness grow inside that she was not much of a burden to him, even if it was just as an 'adult presence.' "I glad..I not a burden back there." Moxie replied to his statement with a smile.
She inhaled a soft breath, feeling the warmth of the sun on her back again, she had forgotten how hot it was giving the events, and wiped her brow with her delicate hands, peering over at Theo as he asked a question of her. It was a normal question, nothing too personal, though it did not exactly have a simple answer. She looked away in thought for a moment, then glanced back, "I came from Mura..Konti Isle..Seeking something different. Adventure..Knowledge..Something drew me..here." She replied a crease forming on her brow as she was not sure what exactly brought her here, though she knew that she wanted to experience new things. "I enjoy fortune..animals too..uhm I had not chance to explore..much things." Moxie did not know exactly what her passions were, she knew she wanted to work with animals eventually, but as of right now she told people their fortune for money. She had the mark of Avalis and could see people's past, though she rarely if ever used it. No one really cared to hear about their past, most people would rather forget about it. Moxie did not like prying into people's life either, so she usually kept the mark to herself. "I still explore the world..see what it offer. Life is complicated..at times." Moxie smiled up at Theo, staring into his eyes. "What you doing here? What you passion about? You have wife, family, in here?" Moxie tried to keep the questions as not so personal as possible, but as it were she was a curious thing and seemed to ask the wrong questions at times. She was indeed curious of Theo though, he was so nice and mellow, as well as so easy to be around. He was a very curious man indeed.
