((Kay. I destroyed it. But I get confused on what is happening when I'm not in control of my own character. Remember, I couldn't tell she had picked him up and then I couldn't tell where they were.))

"NO!!" she cried out suddenly. Coline pushed the man's weight back down upon her shoulders reflexively and took a few clumsy steps away, turning herself around to face the drow in a sort of distress. "I-I'm fine! Really, I am!" she reassured, her expression and voice shifting into a calm after a few raspy breaths. "I am. You... don't have to burden yourself."
After an eternity of silence passed between them, she could easily gather that it probably wasn't the best thing she could have done. A painful pang of guilt pierced at her chest. "...I will need to report to the Professor and the Priestess, concerning that boy in the cave. It would be best if you were made aware of it as well." she said, turning back to move towards a nearby exit. "I will... join you all shortly."

So would you mind if I bared my soul? Jessie slowly closed his outstretched hand, face frozen mid-expression. It was... something between shock and grief that began to burn inside him. He hadn't seen a reaction like hers in a long time. A long, long time.
Somehow, he couldnt quite find any words to fit the situation. His mind felt like a trickling sponge, laden with ink, or some other heavy, black liquid.
The words she spoke didn't make much sense to him. It really was just like before. But as she turned away, the question that had been plaguing him for hours suddenly leapt off his tongue.
"Why can't you trust me?" If I came right out and said 'You're beautiful'?

Coline's brow curled into a familiar wrinkle and she halted in her tracks. "Trust?" she echoed, gazing back at him with just about as much confusion as he was containing. "I don't understand. What does trust have to do with..." she glanced at the man hanging over her shoulder briefly, her expression twisting in utter bafflement, before turning back to the drow. "...With anything?"

So would you mind if I bared my soul?"Why didn't you tell me the guards were giving you trouble?" he spat, completely to the point. "They gave you the runaround, you know. Anyone is allowed in the armory. The post was so insignificant I gave it to two buffoons. Well... it's vacant again now."
"I thought you were dead. Do you have any idea how... how that...? Ugh," he groaned, running his fingers through his hair in agitation "I just... it... it was avoidable. I'm not out to get you, Coline. And yet look at you! You're acting like a jumpy rabbit! Just what is the problem here?" If I came right out and said 'You're beautiful'?

"I... didn't need a permit?" Coline lowered her gaze, round blue irises darting left and right as if the truth behind the nightmare that was the Armory were written on the floor. And then it dawned on her.
...Those bastards.
She let out a long breath, eyes closed, weariness starting to rear its ugly head. "I see. I owe you an explanation then..." The weight of the strange man was starting to take its toll on her. She needed to get this man downstairs before she herself collapsed. And so after a few more moments of painful silence Coline's eyes shot open, staring fervently into that single red eye. "But it will have to wait. There are more pressing matters at hand. I promise, I'll explain everything later, so please..." she pleaded, "Just bear with me."

So would you mind if I bared my soul?The darkness... and the memories... seemed to crumble, driven back like dust in the gale that was the sudden surge of love and affection that welled up inside him.
"No," he whispered, shuffling a little closer "You owe me nothing. It was my carelessness that caused this in the first place. I'm sorry for all the grief that I've caused you."
He bowed his head, raising it and nodding as she asked for leave. "As you wish, little one. I'll... I'll be waiting for you."
The girl hurried out through the door, and he turned back around with a sigh. Hands on his hips, he meandered back to the place where Drax lay, apparently unnoticed with all the activity inside the room.
Listening for a few moments to the conversation inside, Jessie looked down at the man again, nudging him lightly with his foot. He was dead to the world. So many people to treat, and only one highly in-demand Priestess... he'd have to watch her carefully, or she may be the one collapsed soon enough.
He thought about peering round the door to draw attention to the ill man, but as the conversation raged inside he decided that maybe it was better if he just leant against the wall and waited... If I came right out and said 'You're beautiful'?
