Heloise looked up as Hector approached, and seemed a little taken aback when he offered the chocolate, accepting it after a moment, she held it in her hands, not opening it yet, just staring at it, as he asked if she wanted to talk out it. She could have easily just assumed it was about the dagger, the new one and what was going to happen today, but she knew it wasn't.  She was debating about not answering, but she couldn't alienate Hector.

she crouched, shoving the chocolate in a back pocket, away from Shadow and petted him, taking the few moments to compse herself, not having looked back at Hector yet, before sighing softly, and looking at Hector, she gave Shadow one last pat before standing up again so she could speak softly.  

[color=f49ac2]"its not really anything. Or it could be everything. You know I was alone for a long time, and even when my dad was alive...its not that he wasn't there. Its like he just wasn't there after my mother left us. I guess I'm just tired of people dismissing me, and then to have that guy just say that he wouldn't work with anyone that hadn't had the same experiences as him...it just set me off. We all have had, I assume, some trying events in our lives."[/color] she shifted, and looked down at her hands. [color=f49ac2]"I guess...I'm just tired of being...invisible."[/color] 

she gave a soft laugh, amusement tinkling her tone, looking back to Hector with a small smile, takimg the chocolate out from ner back pocket and opening it, breaking off some, she offered it to Hector, [color=f49ac2]"Its your fault. You actually saw me, and suddenly I wasn't invisible anymore"[/color] she broke off a piece of chocolate for herself, popping it into her mouth and letting the taste wash over her, enjoying it.

She let the chocolate melt in her mouth, enjoying it, folding the packaging over the rest and putting in her back pocket again. She felt better, and it was easier to have spoken the to have Hector dog her until she told him. She would always be thankful for Hector. Without him, she suspected she wouldn't be here,  wouldn't even be alive. She nad taken many risks, assuming people wouldn't care if she was gone, and she had been...sad. 

[color=f49ac2]"not that I mind it. I guess I wasn't really all there either, for a long time. So thank you, for forcing your way into my life and for putting up for me"[/color]nshe crouched to pet Shadow again, behind the ears to.
