[Someone didn't answer Rebecca's voice... but that same someone is also going to run into her around town. How, you ask? Well, he just finished checking is rabbit traps, found nothing, and is now begrudgingly making his way to the bakery to get some dinner rolls as his daily meal. But when he passes Rebecca he notices too things instantly.

The first is that she's carrying a lot - all that food? Doesn't seem that out of place, honestly, so he lets that slide - but the second is more alarming to him. She isn't armed. She can't spot a bow on her at all.

And this prompts him to look at her with something between a glare and a stare]

[Oh, it's not like she expects Jaffar to say anything. She knows he'll hear it, at the very least. Even if others in their group don't trust Jaffar, Rebecca knows she can.

She's excited to see him while out shopping, though, even though she can't really decipher the look he's giving her.]

Hello, Jaffar. How are you today?

taintedruby February 11 2010, 07:11:45 UTC

...Fine. [though that is said as his hands are on the hilts of his Killing Edges. His muscles aren't as tense as usual - to Nino this would be an obvious implication of a question of where the weapon is. For Rebecca, though, she probably won't notice that much]

able_wildflower February 11 2010, 07:16:05 UTC

[She notices that, but not the meaning...so she badly misinterprets.]

Is there something dangerous around?

taintedruby February 11 2010, 07:23:20 UTC

You... have no weapon.

[SO EVEN IF THERE WAS YOU WOULD BE USELESS, WOMAN]

able_wildflower February 11 2010, 07:33:31 UTC

Huh? Oh...I left it behind today...I had a feeling I'd end up bringing a lot of food home.

[Because Xanxus is forcing her to make soup for him.]

taintedruby February 11 2010, 07:46:43 UTC

[...Jaffar does not approve, woman. In fact, his muscles tense a little as he takes one or two steps closer and then... looks down on her to say-]

You should... have it.

[And then he's going to pause before ... well, he might offer to carry things. Maybe]

able_wildflower February 11 2010, 08:18:26 UTC

[Jaffar, you're going to scare her, what with your muscles tensing all over the place and your pausing and your ellipsis.]

Well, I...I'm sorry. I'll bring it next time.

taintedruby February 11 2010, 08:26:49 UTC

[...Good, she gets it. He nods, and then takes a few steps further away like]

able_wildflower February 11 2010, 08:29:17 UTC

Is everything alright, Jaffar? Or were you just worried about me?

taintedruby February 11 2010, 08:39:33 UTC

[...He pauses and then-] ...Nino would be upset. [...A pause-] If you... were injured.

able_wildflower February 11 2010, 08:41:01 UTC

Oh...[A pause. She figured she was being too hopeful.] I'll make sure to take my bow with me next time, then.

taintedruby February 11 2010, 08:45:52 UTC

[He nods again; that's good. After all it wouldn't due to have a comrade out of action because she was lax with her own safety]

able_wildflower February 11 2010, 08:49:52 UTC

[A bit of a pause.]

Jaffar, you've been to the desert, right?

taintedruby February 11 2010, 08:55:09 UTC

[...What. He pauses before he nods. Yes]

able_wildflower February 11 2010, 08:57:01 UTC

Do you think you could show me how to get there sometime?
