As good a place as any to start

Okay yeah, this dame definitely wanted nothing to do with her. Maybe Pere really ought to leave her alone... She chewed on that thought for a moment before coming to the conclusion that this woman was free to leave any time, right? That would be her decision. Peregrine's offer of assistance was met with sudden, nigh violent, refusal. She was puzzled by the sudden outburst but tried not to let it show. "No need to apologize," Peregrine said quickly. "Not that it's any of my business, but that doesn't sound like a worthwhile destination in that case. Why not head somewhere totally different? I wouldn't go anywhere near a place that made me feel the way you seem to." She offered a gentle smile, a rare enough thing for her, one lacking most of her usual mischief. If this woman was honor or duty bound to be in one place but she yearned for another, well... Who's to say whether the heart or the head had the right of it? Again, not that it was any of her business. She looked around them, and the gently swaying willow fronds and listen to the wind moving amongst their branches. "After all," she began again, still in a soft voice. "This place is lovely. I may never leave!" She'd rather set the woman at ease, if she was able. She was really harshing Pere's mellow, and the mercurial woman couldn't allow that to happen, now could she? |
