At the outburst from the guy, Kalinda looked over, her expression curiously blank as she quickly calculated the chances of danger, but it seemed over before it has began, for which she was greatful. Without a weapon, chances were, the guy was stronger then her, and she didn't have enough room to jump out the way of a blow. She blinked, and then said [color=f49ac2]"I am not picking on her. I simply wish her attention, as she fell asleep, once more, before I could talk with her"[/color] she debated about poking the girl again, but she figured that might set the guy off some more, and that wouldn't be very smart. She gave a shrug and said [color=f49ac2]"no need to apologise, but, mate, I think you need to do something with that anger of yours"[/color] she looked away, back to the girl to see if she had responded. She looked to the second guy that seemed intent on intruding on her potential conversation with the girl. The girl seemed to be prone to falling asleep-maybe she had that sleeping disease or something-and Kalinda felt that the more she was distracted by the guys, the more chance that they girl would fall asleep again.[color=f49ac2]"thank you for sticking up for us poor, little girls, but we wouldn't be here if we couldn't take care of ourselves, right?"[/color] there was no annoyance in her tone. Just mols curiousity
