Surely his bid couldn't be bested, right? He knew his skills could prove valuable for any group, no matter where he ended up. The Songa were honorable people, though, and he could prove that to her - so long as Eris was freed, he wouldn't make a fuss about any of it until he was properly sold. Freeing Balsam was another pressing concern, but he wouldn't ruin the possibility of setting Eris free to go running to him - he could take care of himself, Sota knew that, but what about Eris? She needed him. He listened carefully to the other bids. Pelts, bits and pieces of bears and alligators, an offer of services. He shifted uncomfortably, hoping his bid still head any weight - but Valkyrie hadn't stopped the bidding there, and he could only assume his offer had fallen short. It was only when the male with markings like fire spoke up that he realized something he'd been missing - that he knew Eris. She'd spoken of something similar, of training since childhood to be a warrior, and the way he looked at her.. and the way Eris look back... spoke of familiarity. He visibly deflated, sagging where he stood. Sota was relieved at her acceptance of the offer, though he couldn't shake the feeling that he'd failed her somehow. But at least she'd be safe now.. soon... right? He felt tears welling in his own eyes, but refused to let them fall. It was all he could do to mouth a quiet 'sorry' before turning to pull away from the group, fully intending to linger and keep an eye on Eris and ensure where she went was a safe place, as he so desperately hoped. |
Sota has a male bamboo lemur companion named Kaito, he's sometimes nearby but usually only if stated!
