"Of course the door will be locked," he huffed with a shake of his head. "That's what happens when you try to leave without saying anything. You can't be wandering around the woods on your own like this. I'll have to be with you so you don't get lost."
He was raring to get flared up again when the second accusation hit. For some reason.. that one hit him with discontent. A feeling that he couldn't put a full description to. Brow knitting, he shook his head and knelt down to actually get on the youngling's level. "I don't want you to get in trouble. If you come back now, there is no reason for anyone to be in trouble, right?"

[Yngvara 9]
“I didn’t try; I left.” She pointed out with a proud little smirk. If she was supposed to feel bad she didn’t; Yngvara had things to do! She couldn’t be held down like that! When he bent down to her level she took a half step back on instinct and her suspicious gaze caught his.
She really wasn’t getting out of this, was she? Yngvara could try running, but his legs were longer. So, with a discontented huff she spit on her palm and held it out. “You gotta mean it or I’m not going.”

Ergon sighed softly. She had a point, but at least it was a technicality. It would have been worse if she had left from inside the house! ..That little smirk was just like her mother's. Just as stubborn, too.
He was taken aback when the girl suddenly spit onto her hand and held it out. Oh Chi, that was one of those northern "quirks," wasn't it? His expression went flat. "I do mean it, but I am not touching that. Around here, we don't require spitting for a handshake." He held up his hand in demonstration. "Just clean and dry with a firm shake."

Yngvara rolled her eyes and her face took on a little devilish quirk. “If you don’t I’ll tell Aunt Riya that I got away.” Of course she knew she’d be in the hot seat, but so would he. “No spit, no hand. Doesn’t matter where we are.” As if to prove how unyielding she was Yngvara wiggled her fingers.
Admittedly she didn’t really care about the spit part of it, but she did like seeing her Uncle grossed out. It was pretty funny to see the way his face pinched up like overcooked roati tallow.

Ergon stared at the youngling for a long moment. What sort of monster was this child? His eyes went from her face to her wiggling fingers and back up again. All it required was a little spit for a small handshake, and she would go back willingly. Just a little...
.....No.
"I'll take the risk," he muttered. He quickly closed the gap and scooped the youngling up, hugging her under one arm like a bag. A wild animal was easier to deal with than a child! He knew he would be in for it later, but he would survive. What he wouldn't survive is letting Ygnvara wander the woods alone or giving in to a child's demands.
