[whats_a_sneeze]

[The crunch of leaves behind Mithos is a dead give-away, but she's not being particularly sneaky... Sayo's too busy being surprised, seeing him as he is. She's never seen him in such a way before. She drops the bag of weaving thread she had, her desire to help taking over--

Because she's not afraid of him anymore. And she's afraid that maybe, she really will never be afraid of him again. She takes a few steps toward the stumbling figure, hands held up.]

Mithos-san--!!

[He won't accept her help, but she can't not try. She has to try.]

What's happened? What's wrong??

[imatreenow]

[He hears the leaves crunching from behind and tries to turn to see who's approaching...

Then that voice, which he recognizes too readily. He freezes. A look of sheer panic flashes across his face before quickly fleeing behind a weak mask of anger. He wasn't ready to see her face-to-face. He just can't. Not now, maybe not ever. He had barely decided that he could, maybe, handle their conversations over the journal. Then Martel had left, and suddenly it was too much to deal with. Fear won out. One step forward, another step back in the direction he'd come from.

And this isn't anonymous. Nor can he run from it.]

Stay away!

[She doesn't make any move to follow, but she doesn't run away like he'd prefer. She just stands there, brow knitted with concern, worried for him. Her voice is level, despite the underlying worry.]

Please, tell me what happened. Are you hurt?

[imatreenow]

I said stay away!

[He tries to keep going, but it's a slow struggle. Just get out of here, he has to get out of here...]
