Awari had faced plenty of snide insults, long monologues, and bitter retorts throughout her long career, but this was perhaps the first she had ever been snapped at by anybody she considered a student. The fae wasn't used to being snapped at in her true form, most likely because when she used it as a weapon or a tool, it generally worked to her favor. Of course, Tiraris words stabbed her pride.
Weak I can shrug off, she bitterly thought.
I know what I'm capable of, and I know I could have easily avoided capture. But fairy... Do I LOOK like a tiny, blithering, insultingly idiotic twit with fragile wings?!
With a puff of anger, Awari sprawled herself across the forest floor, and closed her eyes. Fine, Tiraris could walk away. What did she care? Might help that stupid human blow off some steam. In any case, Awari still hadn't given up on her student just yet.
Say what you will, I keep my word. Humans.
The fae gently blew an insect off her nose.
Patiently, she layed there, her eyes closed. It was rather peaceful, really, the quiet. However, Awari found that she couldn't really appreciate it. She was still too annoyed over the predicament with Tiraris.
Fairy.... Really, that red-headed ass of a woman is impossible. Was she ever really a lady?
Slowly, her annoyed scowl turned into an amused grin to maniacal laughter.
Blue hair spilled everywhere as she curled up in the grass.
Ah, but she hadn't been this vexed or caught off guard like this in a long, long time. This feeling! Was this how that blasted wretch felt all the time?
"Where did she go off to now?" Awari muttered as she sat up.
Though her hair was now a wild mess with leaves in her hair, the fae didn't bother to fix it.
It didn't bother her; she was part of the earth, and it part of she. She was a wild creature, after all.
I better follow her, she thought.
The fae stretched before standing up and walking into the forest. She kept a leisure pace before working her way up to a sprint. She wasn't running for Tiraris, not directly. Instead, she ventured a couple of degrees towards the right. Then, just as she reached a meadow, she dove into the shadows to trail behind Tiraris, always keeping a half mile radius between the two of them.
