Kalir continued to shoot looks of venom Ajada's way. She did not seem to notice, however, and continued to either sulk or plan out more accusations, Kalir knew not which. He took this opportunity to move to the other side of LinGalad, so that he was partially blocked from Ajada's view.

"Must she continue like that?" Kalir asked, beginning to whisper again to LinGalad.

"I do not know, friend," LinGalad replied, shrugging.

"It is probably a female thing," Kalir muttered under his breath.

Kalir looked over to where Avery was. He tried to catch her eye. When he finally did, he smiled. She smiled back kindly. He nodded towards Ajada and rolled his eyes. She nodded and smiled a bit. There was a hint of worry behind her eyes, though, and Kalir saw her hand near her weapon, ready to draw in a heartbeat.

"You like her, do you not, friend?" LinGalad asked Kalir, a glint of teasing in his eyes.

"What? Me? No...me...like her? Of course not," Kalir spluttered. LinGalad simply laughed a bit. Kalir turned a light shade of pink.

Kalir looked ahead, in the hopes that LinGalad would stop chuckling and looking at him in that way. However, it only amused LinGalad more, it seemed. Kalir sighed, and laughed a bit at himself.

"I think I will go talk to Ajada," Kalir finally whispered to LinGalad. He quietly slipped over to Ajada, who looked at him suspiciously as he approached.

"What do you want?" she asked him.

"I just want to talk," Kalir responded, "Is there something so wrong with that?"

"There is if you try kill me," hissed Ajada.

"With words?" Kalir asked Ajada. Ajada continued to look at Kalir suspiciously.

May the Vala help us all! Kalir thought as he continued to try to engage Ajada in whispered conversation, only to find himself accused of various assassination attempts. Kalir was determined not to give up, though, and he continued his attempt at conversation with the apprehensive Ajada.
