Closed Strong bonds and a wandering mind (syrilas area)

[Zadok Shadows]

Zadok was surprised by Naomi's gesture. Her kiss almost shocked him. Zadok just decided that he might as well enjoy it. He wrapped his arms around her as well. When the kiss ended zadok covered his eyes for a moment. When he opened them he found that there was a tiger in Naomi's place. He was shocked at first. This was from pure instinct. When the tiger walked closer to zadok and licked his face he knew there was nothing to worry about. He actually laughed a little. When zadok saw that Naomi was growling. He thought it must of been his blood.

When Naomi turned back and asked about the blood Zadok smiled. "It's ok. I just cut myself with the knife." He took the piece of cloth with his good hand. Zadok wrapped the cloth around his cut hand and tied a Knott. "There we are." Zadok looked at Naomi and finally noticed that her clothes were completely shredded and she was nude. Zadok blushed a little. "Your tiger form is beautiful, but maybe you should of waited until you were in the wilderness." Zadok took off his trench coat and put it over Naomi's body. His arms were covered with old scars "There we go. Now we just need to find you some clothes." Zadok caressed Naomi's cheek with his hand and smiled at her.

"It's okay,” Zadok assured Naomi, ”I just cut myself with the knife." He took the bit of rough cloth and wrapped it around his injured hand, tucking the end into one of the first fold, making it secure. "There we are." The concerned look lingered on her face, but she put her hands behind her, showing that she was satisfied with his treatment. He looked away from her, cheeks red. Oh, right, the humans did not like their own bodies, or at least other peoples’. "Your tiger form is beautiful, but maybe you should've waited until you were in the wilderness." He took of his coat and put it around her. She noticed the markings on his arm, perhaps old fights? She smiled in thanks. "There we go. Now we just need to find you some clothes," Zadok suggested, touching her face delicately, giving her a small grin. She rose one eyebrow at his gesture, but said nothing. “Indeed. I shall set up a tent outside the city, in the woods. And what of you?” Naomi asked, wanting to be able to find him again if need be. She ruffled the coat, feeling its roughness against her bare skin; it irritated her. “Thank you for helping me, and I will repay you somehow,” her brow furrowed as she wondered what she could offer him, when she had nothing. Her daggers, but she would never give those up, they were the only thing she had from her parents.

OOCShall we end the thread soon?

Zadok just smiled at her words and chuckled. "It's ok you don't have to repay me. This is the sort of thing I do. I find people in need of help and assist them when I can. Never asking for anything in return. It's not a great living but I live on." When she asked where he was saying he took a moment to respond. Zadok sighed as he looked at Naomi. "The thing is... I have no home. For the past 8 years I have spent my time on the trails seeing the sights. When I was only 16 my parents died. I had no other family to stay with. I didn't want to live a routine life so I ran out of the city as fast as I could. I left my life behind. The only thing I kept was my fathers sword crafted by a good syliran blacksmith." Zadok patted the sword on his side. He felt a tear role down his face. He wiped it away quickly. He was sure that Naomi probably had bigger troubles then his own.

"I was planning to leave town tonight but due to an unfortunate event." Zadok waved his injured hand. "I can't use my sword with my hand like this. So I'll have to wait a few days for it to heal if I'm lucky. Also when you find some I'd like my coat back. It has sentimental value. Do you mind if I stay at your campsite? I'll do the jobs that need to be done." Zadok smiled at Naomi hoping that he wasn't taking advantage of her hospitality.

Zadok waved Naomi’s offer at some form of payment away, laughing as he did so. He then told her of his history, and how he only had his father’s left of his past life. She touched his shoulder in an attempt to comfort him when she saw a tear come to his eye. "I was planning to leave town tonight but due to an unfortunate event," he gestured with his injured hand, and explained, "I can't use my sword with my hand like this. So I'll have to wait a few days for it to heal if I'm lucky. Also when you find some I'd like my coat back. It has sentimental value. Do you mind if I stay at your campsite? I'll do the jobs that need to be done." This man was asking to come into her forest? In her den, no less? Well, he was a human who did not know the culture of the forest, so she did not hold it against him. Naomi could not suppress her brow furrowing as a result though. “Well, since you helped me, I will give you enough gold for a room at the inn. I am sorry, but my tent is small enough only for one person. And, umm, it is quite hard to get to. It is a few kilometers into the heart of the Bronze Woods,” she told him, looking apologetic. She took some coins out of her pack and put them into the pocket of his coat. She took from her body and handed it to him, saying “I do not really need the coat, but thanks anyway. That should be enough coin to get you a weeks rent. Thanks again.” She gave him a kiss on the cheek, then, in a cascade of gold mist, Shifted. She wrapped her tail around his leg, a sign of affection, then turned and walked down the road, towards the exit of the city.
