"THEN BEAT ME!" He screamed not looking at her, "don't you ever think of anything else?" He finally turned to glare at her. "You are no better than he is, of course you can't think of anything else," he shot. He could feel his hands shacking, his body tense. " for ******** sake why do I even bother trying to stick my neck out for you it just ends in trouble and more trouble because you can't think past your ******** impulses!" Azrael let go of the purpleblood's wrist. He took a breath, "But it is within your right as my superior isn't it?" this time he seemed to be muttering to himself.
"If you want to go back and take them on or beat me to satisfy your anger then do it, otherwise leave me alone I can't stand the idea that you're going to get hurt and I don't want to watch any of you fighting like that," he ran a hand through his hair muttering 'what is wrong with me,' over and over again. "Do you really want to know what I'm thinking?" Azrael asked, his voice cracking. "This is horrible, I think this entire thing is horrible, there is nothing to win you're not going to gain anything, I think all this fighting is pointless and I just want to go back to my mountain, but I don't want to fail a mission I was given, if you really want to win let's find those rebels, it's worthless to stop and fight right now." He shook his head, "but... You don't have to listen to me of course, I'm just a broken piece and you're a noble troll," he crossed his arms, closed his eyes and lowered his head to await the beating that was promised, "I don't even know what I'm thinking,"

Psykgi MenthaDespite Leeroi being freed from his dire situation, Psy - for a moment - considered hitting Eridia a few more times. The purpleblood deserved it for acting like she did, and probably for many other reasons as well and... wait, deserved? The thought – and the powerful anger she was feeling - was so strange to Psykgi that she was able to break free of her own wrath and pull back to Leeroi. Her hands hurt – and were already bruising into bright red – and she knew, very clearly, that she wasn't built for this kind of scrapping. But her eerily serious – for Psykgi – stare made it clear that she was on Leeroi's side, and neither Azrael or Eridia was going to seriously hurt him more than he was already, no matter how interesting they were or how much she liked... well.. Azrael. Ma'am loomed behind her, a tower of white chitinous shells, ready to envelop her charge in a protective, living, shifting coat of insects. Psykgi stayed like that, bristling a little, until Azrael had firmly dragged the purpleblood away. In the comparative calm that followed, she realized that her pump biscuit was going faster than she had ever felt it go before. ”Come on, Lee.” she said. There was very little of her usual perky peppiness in her voice. She was still on edge, and wanted to do something else. Anything else. Somewhere else. With Leeroi. She tugged at his arm. ”Lets go do a sidequest.

Sneering, Leeroi watched as Azrael and Eridia ran. "THAT'S RIGHT!" He shouted, stumbling forward, "RUN AWAY, YOU COWARDS!" He spat the last of the swallowed swamp water on the spot where they had previously stood. "Not even worth the effort," He growled, wiping his face on his sleeve. Breathing through gasps, his fists trembled as he watched them disappear from sight. Good riddance. Worthless little cretins. Maybe the swamp could pick them off.
He turned his attention back to Psykgi. There was an strange harshness in her tone, it almost surprised him. He looked her in the eye and smiled inwardly, though his face kept a cold stare. He could use a sidequest right about now. Maybe then this journey wouldn't be totally useless. Wordlessly, he trudged towards Glitch, stabilizing himself with one hand on her side. With a quick glance back, he waited for Psygki and then he made his leave, wading through the dark swamp.

Her hands trembled with his words. How dare he speak to her like that? He was tired of her s**t, yes, but she warned him about her attitude after his pledge, didn't she? There was no doubt she was unpleasant to be with and all she ever thought was about her well being and revenge. Revege towards the miscreants and towards those two mindless oafs. Although she knew Azrael would jump the ocean for her, yet she wouldn't even jump a puddle for him. Why would she even consider doing something like that in the first place? "Shut up.." She mumbled. "Shut the ******** UP!" She slapped him just like she did with the other. "YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M CAPABLE OF NOR MY IMPULSES!" Eridia gritted her teeth. " YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHO OR WHAT I AM AND I'M CERTAIN I'M NOT LIKE LEEROI! HOW DARE YOU COMPARE ME TO THAT LOW LIFE? HOW. DARE. YOU.""I'VE SHOWN YOU I WAS HARD TO DEAL WITH! I'VE SHOWN YOU HOW SELFISH I COULD GET. YOU CAN LEAVE IF YOU WANT, I AIN'T STOPPING YA!" The frustration was getting the best of her with every punch, every slap... Tears ran down her cheeks and she didn't even notice. This was all overwhelming, she loathed the taste of defeat. "All I've ever cared about was bringing the highest honor to myself! Did you ever stopped and think I'd ever cared about anything else? They are worthless, yes, I won't gain anything but satisfaction by hurting those two." The highblood finally released her grip, letting the other fall on the ground. Eridia finally took noticed of her tears, thanks to Lovedad who placed himself in her sight line. The avian looked at her quite displeased. You have reached rock bottom Eridia. She swore she heard him say. Eridia took a deep breath and sat down, legs crossed and palms on her eyes. "I just wanted to win... I... want to show them... We're not just kids..." She gagged a bit, maybe she still have swamp water on her system. "We can't do anything about them... How long have we been fighting?" She slightly sobbed. They're long gone... The time that we wasted, I could've thought of something... ******** LEEROI'S FAULT." You think I want this? You think I don't want to go back to my hive? I want to go, I WANT to rest... but I can't go back as the crappy highblood who allowed four damned rebels get away."

Azrael stayed quiet as the highblood hit him. She had every right to this, he was insubordinate and deserved every blow. He just watched her, whatever rage he had felt now just felt like numb. If he could describe the feeling it was a numb buzzing in his chest without actually being a physical feeling. When she lifted him off his feet and then dropped him he continued to look at her. 'Ahhh, she's crying... so she cries too,' the blueblood thought 'This is my fault, I should fix it,' he changed position so that he was kneeling instead of on his butt. He slid one leg out from under him, placed his hands on the limb and looked down in almost a bow motion before pushing off so he could stand.
"That... is within your right," Azrael said. Everything hurt as he'd finally noticed. His hands, his legs and especially his well beaten head and whatever damage Eridia did. "Bringing the highest honor to yourself is well within your right and could even be expected of you," he winced. Had a fist collided with his mouth? He was sure that some of his teeth were loose and would fall out soon. One of his long canines had fallen out at some point for sure.
"You can still win, "He watched her even as she sat down. This was strange, to a degree he thought that he was the only one that experienced feelings like this. It was curious to him. The young blueblood crouched down next to his boss. "We can still find them, the fight wasn't last long and they went in that general direction," he said quietly. "It's not too late if you don't just give up, trolls like Leeroi will just slow you down with their petty needs," he held out a shaky hand to help her up if she chose to take it. "If we go now, we might be able catch them,"

"He is pretty petty." She chuckled a bit as she wiped her tears. "The pettiest savage!" The child let out a hardy laugh, although her body ached from top to bottom afterwards. The child stared at his outstretched hand and then at the blueblood rather dumbfounded. She couldn't help but smile at his stupidity. He was choosing to stay by her side and capture those rebels even after what happened. He was right though and more importantly, Azrael seem to believe they still had a chance for redemption. Eridia sighed, took his hand after much deliberation and fixed her hair with her other ribbon. Thank you."Don't break yourself trying to fix someone else Rael. Nobles can't succeed with broken tools." She smirked at her way of showing gratitude and faced at the way the rebels took. "If there's a slight chance, then I'm willing to try. I think I still got an ace up my sleeve and I'm not throwing it away!" Eridia grinned, pulling at his dirty coat. It was her turn to drag him through the swamp. This wasn't what she'd expect from her usual stick in the mud. She felt unexpectedly at ease and free for a split second. Maybe she underestimated him for too long, and was too oblivious to his potential. The highblood wiped the blood and dirt on her face. Now, was that Azrael's or Leeroi's? She shrugged and wiped it off with his sleeve. "Let's get movin'! I won't let them escape this time!"
