Talian listened quietly, more than happy to listen to her words but hesitant to accept the offers of travel and companionship without further thought. Talian trusted very few people, though her offer for the purpose of drug-testing was both surprising and welcome. Tal expected he'd be testing them on himself forever! It was a kind offer, and perhaps reckless, but Tal didn't imagine his ethics would actually let him take her up on it anyhow.
"Thank you," the healer purred softly. He was more relaxed now, though he couldn't put his finger on why. Maybe he'd just needed to get his worries out of his system. This was a more subtle method than he usually employed, but he found that he liked it. He sighed once more before slowly peeling himself from the ground.
"I'll think about it," he said softly, referring to nothing in particular, and yet all of it at once. He offered Ellaira a modest, almost embarrassed smile before picking his way over the branches and stones littering the lakeside and looking back to the camp. "I need to get some lunch, I think. Thank you. It was...nice to meet you."
Was it ever nice to meet anyone in this place? Maybe. Somehow, and against his normal assumptions, he felt somehow better.
