[quote=@ViolentViolet] [color=9966CC]"Worse meaning that I could die."[/color] [/quote] Orion flinched slightly at the bluntness of Vanessa's words, not quite surprised at her bluntness but still, that doesn't make it any easier to swallow. [color=00FF7F]"Yeah,"[/color] he murmured, looking at Vanessa with a remorseful expression at what he viewed as his own words being perceived as impolite. Orion bit his lip lightly, listening to her continue. [quote=@ViolentViolet] [color=9966CC]"I think Paisley can handle all of you, she's pretty independent and a few of you are just too sweet to try anything with her."[/color] [/quote] [color=00FF7F]"Well as independent as Paisley is and as sweet as a few of us are, I'd be a bit worried about her sleeping in the same caravan as a bunch of party-goer immature boys in their 20s without a mysterious dark bad-ass poet like you nearby,"[/color] Orion laughed in return, his chuckles drifting off to a more serious happiness hearing Vanessa continue. [quote=@ViolentViolet] [color=9966CC]"Sure. I'll be more careful if it makes you all feel better."[/color] [/quote] [color=00FF7F]"Thanks, make sure you do,"[/color] Orion said with a warm smile, moving some hair out of his eyes as he did. [quote=@ViolentViolet] [color=9966CC]"So did ya come out here to walk with me or am I being summoned back into the bus?[/color]" [/quote] [color=00FF7F]"Well...."[/color] Orion started, thinking. He hadn't really completely thought through what he was going to do beyond seeing how she was. [color=00FF7F]"How about if you give in to eating some waffles I won't try convincing you to come back to the bus, and you can choose if I walk with you or not,"[/color] he grinned, holding out his plate with a smile.
