John sighed.
"Maybe there's a way to slip it off..."

"Doubtful, they wouldn't make it that loose. If you want it removed, we'd need to find a sword or something of the like." Flint commented, then said to the strange girl, "They won't find you unless you want to be found. Do you want to be found?

Sayerin's eyes widened, and she looked back at the house uneasily. They wouldn't hurt her, but they wanted her to be a brood mare. whereas she knew nothing about these men, but they were supposedly saving her from that.
What do I do? she asked herself, confused.

John frowned.
"We should probably keep moving."

"If you are unsure, the easiest path would be to come with us." Flint said, stopping and turning to the man,
"That is, of course, if I may join you?", turning back to the girl, he concluded,
"Whereas if you return now, there will be guards. You will not be able to leave again. If you decide you wish to return later, you can always come back."

Sayerin bit her lip, then nodded slowly.
"Very well..."

John nodded, then started further into the forest.
Sheesh, took her long enough...

"Thank you." Flint said, following

Sayerin stumbled after John, as he still had ahold of her.
"Let me go, sir, please," she whispered uneasily.

John blinked, realizing he was still holding her hand.
"Oh, sorry."
He let go.

Flint laughed on the inside, remaining detached-looking on the outside and following along

Sayerin rubbed her now freed hand, looking at the two men warily.
"Who are you?"

John sighed.
"Call me John. Or "Smiling John", but only if you intend to get on my bad side."

"Flint, at your service." he replied, maintaining a stark contrast between his appearance and his words

Sayerin twisted her hands together, bowing slightly at Flint.
"Where does smiling John come from?" she asked hesitantly.

John blinked.
"Me, or the name?"
|

"The name. She's far too nervous to call you that." Flint interjected

Sayerin nodded in agreement with Flint.

John grinned widely.
"Does this give you a hint?"

|
Post by NightWing on Jan 20, 2008 20:29:17 GMT -5
Flint cracked a grin, but quickly returned to his usual appearance, emotionless

|
Post by Wolfy on Jan 20, 2008 20:30:54 GMT -5
Sayerin flinched, looking down.
"I see..." she said softly. That grin was a bit...off putting.

John stopped grinning and looked away.
"You tend to gain a reputation when you kill a bunch of people, and that's how I'm recognized."

Flint said nothing
So he has killed... interesting

Sayerin froze, staring at John.
"You... what?"
|
|
|
Post by ZeroVX on Jan 20, 2008 20:39:10 GMT -5
John shrugged.
"They deserved it, so I killed them."

"What had they done?" Flint asked
|

Post by Wolfy on Jan 20, 2008 20:41:58 GMT -5
Sayerin took a step back, shaking slightly. What kind of people was she traveling with? What had she been THINKING?
|
|

Post by ZeroVX on Jan 20, 2008 20:43:04 GMT -5
John shrugged again.
"Oh, you know. Rapes, murders, genocides. That sort of thing."
|

"The kind that need to be taken care of in some way." Flint agreed

Sayerin took another step back, glancing behind her.
You can still go back, just tell them you thought you heard something, or even go somewhere else, it doesn't matter, just go! she thought to herself as she shook. Really, what had she been thinking, going off with two unknown men?
