bury the light

Their conversation progressed well. Venom felt like they were being honest to each other, and his actions were quickly garnering her early trust in him. She was only just coming into her newly acquired position, but she spent her whole life training for this. Her support system was convinced she was ready, and the girl took action when it presented itself. Her tongue flicked in interest as the Iga born spoke to her. The way his eyes met hers and the confident way his words left his lips led her to believe he spoke the truth. He gave her honesty. Though the phrase wasn’t what it could be Venom knew what he meant. He was injured, but that couldn’t be allowed to stop him. She was much the same way.

Venom hoped that his interests were simply his need for a purpose. He very well could have been an infiltrator. He looked enough like Hana and she was Seer’s spy. Sirius had good judgement, if they were anywhere near similar in character perhaps she’d stumbled upon her next greatest ally. Then again, she hadn’t been impressed with the pale girl. Best to reserve judgement perhaps.

”I think that could be arranged.” Venom easily agreed to his terms. ”Do you need assistance on the journey?” One pale brow lifted curiously, half testing him as her magenta rose gaze lingered on his form. It was no secret he was injured, and the better condition she was able to present him to a healer the better off he would be. Venom could feel herself softening to him already and she was yet to decide if that was a good or bad thing.
