Wiggle Wiggle Thud!
Hmm, seemed good enough to him surprisingly. It held up!
Taking off the blue and black striped scarf from around his neck, he thought about putting it on the chair next to him but, no. The chair was dusty and disgusting. Best just keep it in his lap. "It iz, not all zat bad." Once you got over everything, it was just another place! It was the ‘getting over everything’ that he could not miss.
"Merci." Smiling, quite ecstatic that he was moving on to the next task, he almost raised his arms for some sort of cheer but decided against it. This place was not crowded, and yelling would surely bring attention to himself. He couldn’t help though, having his hand raise up and touch the slight scar on his right brow. Some sort of habit he had since the task.
"I am doing much better. Just needed some rest." Like he had thought before. "How about you? How are you doing?"
Rhea watched as Noel sit across from her. He seemed to be having a much harder time adjusting to the place than she was. Meh, he was just not used to it, neither was she but it had a sort of quaint rustic charm about it that could grow on you if you let it. She supposed that's why the old bar faithfuls kept coming back.
She probably wouldn't order anything though. She wasn't that fond of the place yet. Meh.
Her eyes followed Noel's scarf. She had one just like that a few days ago but she gave it to Jermaine to get him warm when he had emerged from the caves. She wondered how he was doing now.
" no it really isn't. It's a bit...err..charming." and slightly creepy. She settled unto the chair comfortably now, and ran her fingers through her dark hair.
She nodded as he thanked her. She was so proud of him. Of course she knew he would go on. He was very dedicated. A virtuous trait to have. She couldn't help but chuckle at the excited look on his face. He seemed very excited about moving on and why not? He deserved it. He had been amazing in his challenge obviously, since he was tied in first place. Her brown eyes followed his finger to the spot where his scar was. She was tempted to touch it but she kept her hands in her lap and tore her eyes away from his face.
" well you most certainly look better" She returned her eyes to his face briefly. He did look much better. His face was back to being bright and cheerful like she remembered it before the task, despite the scar there. Gah, how was she doing? Exhausted, confused, very confused and slightly sad. She was not going to tell him that though, because she couldn't explain to him why.
" I'm fine. I'm just really excited for the second task and a bit nervous for you. You will be more careful next time won't you?" yes that would do for an answer, it was normal and very Rheaish, she hoped.
