"You don't know that. And you can't always be there to protect me, X'zayvean."
"No, but I'll be damned if I don't try," he responded, looking at her a moment, jaw working in thought, trying to figure his thoughts out. "You and Aru are all I have."
"Thank you. Because you'll have to do as I ask tomorrow.."
He didn't respond immediately as his thoughts held his attention. "I won't act without reason, you have my word."

"No, but I'll be damned if I don't try. You and Aru are all I have."
"And we don't plan on leaving you." Avery murmurs quietly "But the unknown..." breaking off, she shakes her head
"I won't act without reason, you have my word."
"Thank you.." inhaling shakily, she turns away, gaze clouding

"And we don't plan on leaving you. But the unknown... Thank you..""
He gently wrapped her in a hug, chin resting on the top of her head and remained quiet, unable to voice what his thoughts were clearly. His eyes flicked towards where Aru slept, feeling the most human than he had in a long time.

Burying her face in his chest gently, she closes her eyes, resting a moment before she exhales slowly "I want to show you something. Will Aru be all right by himself for a while?"

"I want to show you something. Will Aru be all right by himself for a while?"
Zay looked at her with quizzical eyes, then responded, "He'll be all right. He know I won't go far. What is it?"

"He'll be all right. He know I won't go far. What is it?"
"A creek, not too far from here.." Avery murmurs, hesitating

"A creek, not too far from here.."
He nodded, taking her hand with a small smile. "We can go. Which direction from the cabin?"

"We can go. Which direction from the cabin?"
"East.." she whispers, cheeks brushed with red "It just leads into a small pool, but.."

"East.. It just leads into a small pool, but.."
"We'll still go," he replied, reaching over and grabbing his knife in case, moving and slipping on his boots and slipping the blade inside them, his hand returning to hers. "Need anything before we go?"

Opening her mouth, Avery almost says her sword but thinks better of it, shakes her head slowly

"I... My sword..."
He nodded and picked it up, carrying it over and placing it in her hand. He gave a small smile of encouragement. "First lesson then to seeing without seeing. Put it on using your sense of touch, but don't be hasty. Take your time, actually feel the sheath and belt and understand what the textures mean before moving forward." Zay paused a moment. "I promised I'd help you learn to see how I've learned, and I intend on fulfilling it."

Stilling once it's placed in her hand, Avery slowly turns her head to his voice, hesitates before doing as he asked. Fumbling the first few tries, she grits her teeth but finally gets it, latching it together "Thank you.."

"Thank you.."
Smiling when she gets it, he replied, "No need to." He took her hand, intertwining his fingers in hers and started towards the door. "Now we can get going."
