I originally wrote this as a descriptions practice thing, but I think it ended up doing something different. I think it's called... character relationships.

Ann's attention was suddenly caught by the absurdly sized sword he held

"Um... Are you sure you'll need something that big to fight the armies when they arrive?" She asked, sounding extremely confused as she shielded her deep blue eyes as she looked upward. The sun reflected off the huge silver sword, making its shine being nearly blinding.

"No, trust me. If you're going into a fight with that lord's armies, a sword like this is absolutely necessary." Brendan replied.

She rolled her eyes, "Whatever." She continued on, heading in the direction of the cliff.

"Come on, me. You are about to fight the most powerful being in the history of existence. You don't need to go question someone's weapon choice!" She muttered to herself. Ann held her hands on the sides of her head, looking down at the ground. The grass was patchy, most of it looked dead.

"You okay?" He called out to her.

"Fine," she quickly responded, despite it being obvious she wasn't. There was a moment of silence. Brendan stabbed his large sword into the ground, then walked over to her. He stood in front of Ann, and put his hands on her shoulders. Ann brushed her hair out of her face and looked at him. The two made eye contact.

"I know you're not fine," Brendan begun, "We're all afraid or nervous to head into what could be our last battle, but we can't know for sure. But because of everyone's efforts, we've made it this far. We've discovered new things about ourselves, told eachother our darkest secrets, and even came out of seemingly impossible situations unscathed. If we all just believe in ourselves, I'm sure we'll win." He patted her shoulder before putting his hands back to his sides.

Ann didn't know what to say. They just stared at eachother for what felt like forever. Suddenly, Ann threw herself at Brendan and hugged him.
