She wasn't alone out here. No, it was silly to think that she would have been. There were so many coming and going from this place, it was unreasonable of Nirvana to expect that she would have the lake to herself. Not that she needed to keep the lake to herself. No. A silly thought. Preposterous, even. It seemed that the woman, standing tall as she did, wearing antlers, wasn't much of a threat. She didn't seem to be upset with Nirvana's presence-- not like Nirvana would have needed to care if she had, but still. The afternoon would pass without incident, and she could stay well enough clear. Avoiding social interactions... check. Avoid them until, at last, the woman spoke. An accent colored her words, and it leaves Nirvana quirking her head ever so slightly to the side. Do you fight? It was an odd question. Still, Nirvana found herself readying nearly subconsciously. She'd set her posture as always, light on her feet. Light, much lighter than the woman that had addressed her. While most in her situation would prefer a flight option when push came to shove, Nirvana wasn't most. By all that the universe had to offer, she'd never been most. Her gaze is sharp as she takes the woman in. "Of course I fight." As if it had been a silly question. Energy courses beneath the surface, a current that runs as her heart throbs in her chest. Nirvana is electric, alive. "Why?" Her tone is a bit more accusatory in nature now, eyes narrowing. Why did the stranger want to know? Was she looking for a fight? Nirvana sized her up, confident in her abilities. If push came to shove, yes, she could take her. |
