What A Nuisance

Shadow would turn to see that the dame had nodded, obviously showing that she had heard him while she had continued with cleaning his wounds. A small sigh would come over the brute, before turning his cranium to see that Maria had lied down upon her stomach, her nose happening to touch his only slightly from the small touch, but he paid no heed to it. She would ask him if he would like to accompany her to retrieve some herbs for his wounds, or, perhaps even stay here and regain some more of his energy. The last question almost made him want to laugh. Was she questioning his ability to continue forward despite not having rested and eaten for some time? Shadow's crimson gaze stayed locked upon Maria's orbs.

"Do not think that because I have only eaten once for this time that I can't continue. I have been through a lot worse situations than this, but, I will accompany you to get your herbs." He would explain, standing up as his ears stayed upright, almost as if on alert that something would attack them at any second, but, he was also trying to see that if she were to make out anything that sounded suspicious, he would either attack her, or decide it would be best to just leave. He did not turn away from a fight, but he did not want to fight a girl unless he really had to. He turned to her, waiting for her to lead the way to retrieve the plants that were said to help with his wounds.
