            [ the knight let out an amused chuckle ]   i suppose.   doesn’t make the armor any lighter but it’s nice not to worry about being stabbed.

            acquaintance. ally, if you prefer a softer term.  ( .. )   that is kind of you. and i do see how you've begun to let your steel armoured guard down even just a bit around me. ain't it a relief  ?

@-ofsongbirds }
            a friend  ,   huh ?   well,  i must extend the same sentiments your way .   it is  ..  nice not to feel suspicious of another.

my parents. it wasn’t up to me. i had no idea they’d even done this until they told me.. like an hour ago.

@dovecotes }
            and what reason do you have for changing your mind ?   or was this your parents ?

( clemensia let out a quiet breath of relief. ) okay.. good. hm? no, i’ve never used a weapon. i’ve had zero need to up until now, I guess.

@-ofsongbirds }
            well,  i’ll be sure to step with extra heft next time around so you can hear me a mile away.   lady’s promise.   [ she put a hand over her heart for emphasis ]

(  @sheknights  )     [  lucy gray's smile is forcefully stretched toward her eyes. it's always perform perform perform. she tilts her head. ]   the days can feel so long  ..  thought you might've been an intruder. that's all.

@-ofsongbirds }
            apologies,  lucy gray,   i tend to forget my own stealth.  you seem weary.  is everything alright ? 

/  intrigued or anythin you feel  !    :)

            and who are you to say that ?

@lasheds }
            huh.  well,  can’t say that’s my weapon of choice,  but it’s an impressive one.   [ she took her hand as she stood.  the knight had a dent in one of the shoulder plates of her armor.  ]   didn’t realize this was such a hostile town.

[a chuckle escapes her lips as she wiped the back of her hand across her forehead. slowly she stood to her feet as the dust settled and working to roll the whip up]   it’s no problem, those men were being horrid.   [nose scrunching but extending a hand out to help the knight back up to her feet]    my momma taught me how to use this whip when i was a little girl. gotta be able to protect yourself, she would say. 

@lasheds }
            [ the knight’s mouth had dropped for a brief moment,  trying to process what she’d just seen.  she’d never seen someone wield a weapon of that kind before.  it was a rare sight indeed to see the knight so lost for words. ]   i  ..  yes.   how did you  .. ?   where  .. ?   i  —  thank you.   

@-ofsongbirds }
            you’re right about that.  honesty’s more valuable than gold,  quite frankly.  it’s good to be honest  ..  to an extent.
            
            /    SAME ,,  i’m making it a yearly tradition bc  < kate and yelena 3

(  @sheknights  )      [  she bows her chin as a gentle smile tugs on her lips. ]    more honest than bold. honesty's hard to come by these days. 
            
            /  omg so true  !!!   i did that last year

@-ofsongbirds }
            that’s true.   i must say,  you’re quite the bold woman,  lucy gray.   even without armor,  you carry an unbelievable strength with you.
