Virginia, as much as she hated to admit it, had been on edge for weeks. The loss of Bantorain as well her ordeal protecting the children during the curse had worn at her nerves and she was about ready to pistol whip Matt into next week if he decided today was a good time to be the pest he usually was.
She came up on him and saw him grumping in the grass...and couldn't help but smile slightly. "You'll understand if I keep a slight distance, I'm sure. You must smell something awful."
Matt looked up at her, taking his most annoyed expression. "I'm touched from your kind words." The boy left his comfortable place on the grass and stood up. "So" he added, while he observed the girl "shall we go?"
"We shall," Virginia smiled, making her way past him and towards the forested area west of the encampment that contained the river. Her left hand rested on Rapier, but it was obvious her other hand was desperate for some level of normality for it. There was no Bantorain there in the holster for her to rest that hand on...and walking like this was just a painful reminder.
Matt walked beside the girl, careful not to be too close or too distant from her. "You know where are you going right? Don't get me lost and then take advantage of me.." The green head smirked and looked around the place. What an odd world. He wasn't sure if he was ever going to get used to it.
