This Is Not A Party

Sota let his slightly nervous sight follow her own, looking into the distance as though she expected to find someone out there. It wasn't at all like his own flitting gaze, which had been scouring the ground for hours now, searching for anyone at all - mostly Balsam, but also the giants that inhabited these lands, so he could observe them as much as avoid directly contacting them. Eventually he'd like to get to know them, but for now he was content observing from a very safe distance. His mind wasn't entirely on bringing a prize home, only on seeing that Balsam accomplished whatever tasks he set out to do safely and without losing any limbs in the process.
Velvette replied cryptically that she'd know her prize when she saw it, but mostly she was interested in Ramesh. He nodded, a bit too enthusiastically, in understanding. A slight, wary smile of his own twitched at his lips. "Understandable." He, too, was far more concerned with finding Balsam than any prize of his own.. wait, would he be expected to return home with a prize? Surely, but the finer specifics of that hadn't really crossed his mind. Admitting that, though, would surely make him sound like an imbecile. "I'm not sure yet either. I haven't really..." His voice trailed off as he shifted his weight from one end of the branch to the other. "I'll see too, I guess." He offered a gentle shrug as he considered for a moment longer. "I won't keep you, though. I promise to find you if I come across Ramesh." He doubted he'd come across him unless he happened to be going the same way Balsalm was, but he didn't need to tell Velvette that. His grin quirked up slightly as he dipped his head to her, before turning to bound away, truly not wanting to take up much more of her valuable time.
