Maybe irritating for Adrianna, but her slicing words had qite the opposite effect than one might have thought. Instead of brooding or responding with anger, the snarky remark from her side caused the still somewhat shaken dark elf, that was slowly calming – probably to courtesy of the alcohol – let out a dry chuckle. “Of course, I just forgot to mention how I was raised in a loving family until this one, dreadful day…. And probably a puppy died somewhere along the way.” He had even found his sarcasm again, though right now maybe still was kind of the wrong point in time to get snappy wither, as she had all the right in the world to still just drop him right off of her balcony again. Or out the window. For effect.

The thought let him fall silent and clear his throat before adding, a bit more serenely: “But no, that’s not the case. I wasn’t actually born a mercenary, you know? And I guess I killed my first victim with uhm…. 6? Or was it 5?... I can’t even really remember anymore.” This time, even though it sounded even more unbelievable than the story he told before, the elf was dead serious and honestly a bit distraught about the scrambled memories of his. Not thinking that the thought of a child murdering people might be disturbing for some people.

He was just about to protest against her scrutinizing words, no matter how much truth there was in the reckless part, when she was suddenly towering above him, a view both intimidating and deliciously tempting, especially when Adrianna was as agitated as she was now. And her pulling him up to almost her height instantly meant him having to stretch and stand on his toes, the rough handling doing a lot in bringing back his trademark smirk. And with words like that she was only pouring oil into the fire. “Is that an invitation?” whether it was one or now, he did indeed strip off his torn jacket with ease after she had let go of the same and was pouring herself another drink while he finished his. After all, it was kind of a rare occasion that they met and he wasn’t already bleeding.

“….Just until the coast’s clear again…”  that was an awfully vague answer but Yun was still surprised enough she wasn’t kicking him right out again, he was already pressing his luck quite a bit probably. “Thank you.” That last bit. Serious for once and mumbled almost inaudibly, yet still there – a short glimpse behind the casual demeanor he spouted most of the time.

Obviously:  I’m not really constantly active, only sporadically - however, looks like I can never really abandon my blogs here because I end up missing my boys too much x,)   just see me as that one pesky weed you just cannot get rid of in your otherwise properly primed garden!

... or that stray cat always walking by whenever you least expect it, because that will be the overall course for my activity and replies ;) AND ..... due to Corona the city is drifting into Lockdown. I work in medical and microbiotic fields, my exams being at the end of April.. until then we’re on forced vacation here, institutes closed until the 19th of april!

Well, that happened yesterday and so I may have some time on my hands now for the next weeks öÖ

Yup. That was the confirmation he had asked for but didn’t know whether or not he actually wanted it. That guy did indeed sniff him. For whatever reason. A habit he said. Yun huffed, tilting his head a bit while trying to figure out just what exactly this stranger was. He did not look like anything the dark elf had ever seen before – unlike the other, who seemed to know just exactly what he was. Disadvantages like this tended to frustrate him, but that was nothing one couldn’t change, right?

“What exactly even are you?” the elf asked bluntly, as rhetorical finesse never had been one of his talents either. “Would be just fair to tell me, don’t ya think?” at least in his book, that made a lot of sense. “And thanks, I guess?? As weird as that is.” he had no clue what he did smell like just now – probably not blood, at least not yet.

But when the guy quite suddenly moved aside, Yun also finally and very abruptly remembered what he actually was supposed to do. With a loud curse he pushed forward, fervently looking over the ground. But there of course was now nothing but dirt to be found. “Aaah fucks sake. ‘course it’s gone now! Goddammit.” With a shrug he started to quickly walk forward, eye constantly on the ground “Do whatever. Just don’t get in my way again.” For all he cared, the stranger could get lost, no matter how pretty he was or how curious he made him – this was more important now.

Still, Yun listened, mentally taking note of the name “It’s Yun.” His own introduction turned out rather brief as he grew more frantic, there was nothing to see no matter where he looked. “Damn by now it could be wherever….” His mumbling stopped just as his step, as an idea crossed his mind that let him whirl around on the spot, pointing towards Valryn – who he assumed did indeed just follow him. “You! Is your sniffing just for show or does it actually do some good?” out of nowhere he produces a rather small, white leather leash, dangling it in front of the other’s nose. “Here. Sniff that and tell me where it leads you.”

Now not instantly trying to push past the other anymore, Yun could also finally fully take in the rather peculiar appearance of the stranger in front of him, own ears perking up subconsciously, as the feather-y appendages on top of his head actually moved. What exactly was that creature? Well, certainly not human, he got that much, but aside from that, the dark elf had not even a good guess.

“Given that I haven’t seen any of ‘my kind’ either since – well, since about a decade –“ he’d almost spoken too soon and said too much, but curiosity was a strong motivator, maybe there were others, next to his tribe, despite what everyone used to tell. “- we’re not exactly common to come by in these lands.”

He lifted an eyebrow, as hard as that was maybe to see when the other was mostly concealed by his eyepatch, was that guy trying to reconcile or something. “Oh I wasn’t offended by that assumption. I’m not exactly sugarcoating that I’m no good person. As for the rest of ‘us’ – plenty o’ them are assholes. The rest? Well probably can’t blame a dog for acting on its conditioning..”  his slight rambling trailed off, as the tall man leaned closer, than any common sense of respecting personal space would have allowed for – Yun knew that border very well, since he crossed it on a regular basis himself.

But this one did give off a strange vibe, he couldn’t really escape the gaze of those blue eyes. Pointed ears now pressing flat against his head out of caution. “I’d say that is none of your damn business.” And he didn’t exactly want to explain, that he was chasing after a literal white rabbit, that would probably have kind of ruined the whole mood… but maybe that was for the better…? Because the other was now close enough to feel his every breath. And then… “…….did you just  sniff me?! The fuck.”
