22th day of Summer, 511 AV
"Oh, my hands? Perhaps it's the gauntlets." Eph looked closely at the woman and her hand. A sigh could be heard coming from the deep of his lungs. Metal doesn't transfer heat well, and I'm not exactly a bundle of warmth in this outfit." Of course it was that. Ephraim scolded himself for being a scaredy cat. It was embarrassing to say the least, treating this healer like she was some kind of undead demon. Just a gauntlet. "Not to mention I was... swimming earlier." Eph shook his head and looked away in shame. It's not like he was such a coward normally, but something made him edgy and unsettled but couldn't really peg what. Like he had a small bird in his chest that was frantically looking for a way out, causing havoc in Eph's feelings.
"So, you can teach me to avoid being caught? Even without theft, that sounds quite interesting. I'd love to learn of such a thing." The voice was still washed from all emotions, dull like it was a doll talking. ”Hu?"He let the healer to return to her work and looked at her mask. ”Yes, I could..ow..ow..” While more relaxed the control over his speech was much easier. Ephraim moved a bit closer, despite pangs of pain, to get the woman easier access to his wounds. ”Can you teach me how to make stitches?” The half-breed asked in between small stabs of pain. Maybe having such skill could be useful to a thief who constantly got into brawls.Then he remembered something, something that was actually a very obvious question none of them had asked. ”What's your name? What are you doing in Ravok?” The half-Dhani tried to sound neutral and slightly bored, although he grew really curious of someone dressed so oddly.
The woman was now much more careful, which made it easier for him to just let go and focus on other things, though he was always getting distracted but the strange material and clothing the healer had. He wondered briefly if she wore it on purpose or just wanted to get some attention and yet not to get it at all. A brilliant strategy if you looked remotely human. Him? People always noticed his eyes first, a snake like pupils. Not really easy to get a disguise with that thing. |
