She watched the play of emotions that moved across his face with something crossed between horror and curiosity, not to mention a healthy dose of confusion. Never in the past had she seen such a display from R'nya and it was at once frightening and lovely. But the confusion rattled about her mind trying to grasp at a reasoning behind it. What could possibly have happened for such a thing to be brought to the surface? To her knowledge the stoic man never allowed another to see what lay just beneath the surface and for him to do so now in front of her was startling.
Her eyes were still wide when he offered her a hello, shoulders slumped dejectedly, before the silence grew once more. It was awkward, this moment in time and her own brow began to furrow with it. They'd never seemed to have an issue before. Always before they were able to speak to each with relative ease, never floundering or stuttering in conversation. What made today so different? If she thought about the answer would be simple and right there for her to see, but she was still stuck on the emotions that had drifted across his face and the awkwardness of the situation.
She took a few experimental steps when he offered the berry. It wasn't long before she had closed the distance between them and gently slipped a berry from his hand. Popping it into her mouth, she savored the flavor as she regarded him with dark eyes. Something must be wrong. Maybe he had heard about her mistake the morning of Mizeath's flight and the thought brought color high into her cheeks.Perhaps you should just ask him if he is alright, Ameris, Mizeath inserted with her voice colored with her own curiosity.
Glancing at him again Ameris asked, "R'nya…. Is there something wrong?"
