peace offering

Az rumbled a soft sound of acknowledgement. That Hana had considered the slavers to be strangers was a good thing, at least she wasn't looking on him and his father as the murderers who slayed some brother or uncle or something of hers. "Strangers die all the time." The casual way she shrugged it off brought him pause, and before he could think better of it he was speaking again. "Is that how you felt when they buried my body, too?" It was a touch crueler then he'd intended, but Azure didn't like to be kept in the dark. He wasn't sure what had crossed her mind when he 'died', was she sad? Did she mourn with his family, or feel relief that she'd escaped his chains? He didn't want to consider that she'd felt nothing at all, but the way she'd greeted him on the beach with a casual "I heard you'd died." still stung, like it was a rumor that found her while she was in Sparrow's arms.

Azure turned away from his fish, giving to her his full attention so he might see if there was conflict in her eyes. The dead, de-scaled meal sat on it's place upon the rock for mere moments longer, before a small clawed paw reached up from behind the boulder, stealthily grabbed it by it's tail, and dragged it off the stone into the grass.
