If only night could hold you...
Ari merely laughed when her suspicions about his thoughts were confirmed. It had been a while since a man had admitted to as much...well, since Belorner anyway and she decided that that one didn't count. It would have been nice if she hadn't gotten the vision right off...No, no it wouldn't because then she would have done a lot more than kiss the man and that was revolting enough in itself. She needed to get a man who wasn't so vile. How often had she thought this over? Often enough that she was surprised that she hadn't done anything about it yet. She allowed her smile to turn flirty, her lips being the only thing that could convey her mood with the blindfold on. "But such thoughts are so boring when they are confined to one's head." She teased. "How long has it been since you have been with a woman, Rashiek?" She let her lips play with the name as she spoke it. "Or is it true what they're saying about you and Beck?"
She sighed and let the conversation move on. She wasn't entirely sure that she wanted that sort of thing with the bandit. Jon would probably jump at the opportunity but Aria didn't really need something so famous between her legs. Besides, he had done Mother only knew what to Aus and she didn't think she could forgive him enough for that to tumble him. There were much better fish swimming out there that she could set her sights on. "As for the tea leaves, no, I don't read them. Usually if you find someone who offers to do so, they're a fake. Being able to truly interpret tea leaves is very rare." If she had the ability, she had never really tested it before. It seemed too...slippery to mess with. She got in enough trouble when she gave people actual predictions.
The questions and accusations about Velius caught her off guard. It seemed that she was unable to shake the man, no matter who she talked to. "Yes, I know Velius." She felt her other hand awkwardly patting the bandit's arm to comfort him....without her permission. "Trust me, don't put too much into what he says. He's either trying to get a rise out of you or intentionally trying to hurt you. Either way, I think the best thing to do is just ignore him." Not that she was all that good at that herself. He was so maddening!!! The b*****d had wormed his way into her brain and she couldn't get him out and now she was indebted to him. "I know you love your son. I've seen it...when you touched me before. I know you loved his mother too...at least a little." She didn't think it was wise telling him this but she wasn't a very wise person when it came to keeping her mouth shut.
She heard him addressing someone in the wagon and blinked behind her blindfold. It was darker in here? Certainly not darker than her own wagon. She tentatively pulled the blindfold off of one eye and then cautiously opened it. It wasn't too bad. It wasn't the perfect lighting but it was nice enough that she could see without pain. She pulled the blindfold off the rest of the way and sighed. She supposed it might not be awful to be in this wagon so long as she wasn't a slave. "Although Jon isn't necessarily opposed to male partners, I don't think Beck is really his type." She smiled, coming to the minstrel's rescue before he fainted again. "He's actually a big admirer of yours...which is why he fainted earlier. He's been trying to talk to you since he joined the caravan and you keep brushing the poor guy off." She wasn't really scolding the bandit but she wasn't going to sugar coat it either. She was simply stating facts. "Now, as fun as it has been getting to know you and all, I think we should probably get going. Just because I know my way around the tunnels, it does not mean that there aren't dangers down there and we have a lot of distance to cover to even reach the entrance." The Oasis was nice but Bethryl was beautiful. She was tired of dwaddling.
