[Right][color=9400D3]Location: Somehow unable to finish leaving the guildhall
Interactions: Adelyn [@Lunarlord34], Kiba [@Cello] [/color][/right]

Mark only made it a few steps before the short spitfire lightning mage was in front of him, blocking his path once again. Saying he had something to do should have been the end of the conversation, right? Why did she insist on continuing to prattle on when there was a job to do? Obviously there would only be one way to be rid of her now. He had to actually talk with her. Or, at least, he would if she ever shut up.

He could have answered everything, but what was the point? She had her assumptions set. It was a waste of time to backtrack reply to any rhetorical question she posed. The more insulting thing was that - for as long as they had been in the guild together - the bookworm didn't know his name. He hadn't bothered learning her last name, but at least he knew her first. Oh - well, supposedly it was good she introduced herself. He thought her name had been Adeline. Perhaps an introduction was called for. 

"[color=9400D3]Markovis.[/color]"

No sooner did he finish saying his name than she continued on. This girl spoke more than their bubbly water mage (and that one could carry on a conversation alone) but more passive aggressive in her attempts to socialize. He knew he wasn't the best at this whole interaction thing, but he at least knew better than to force his presence onto someone. Especially without knowing what the task at hand was, or if he was under skilled for the mission. 

So what did he have to say? "[color=9400D3]No.[/color]" 

He went to go move a step but realized she was going to stay in his way when she shifted to match. A soft sigh escaped him. "[color=9400D3]You are not capable of handling this task. You are neither physically fit, nor magically capable enough to assist. You will get killed. Kiba is more than capable of assisting without potentially getting killed.[/color]" He turned and looked at the swordsman. "[color=9400D3]Your skillset would be helpful. You should come.[/color]"

His attention returned to the silver haired girl before him. "[color=9400D3]You're not going to move out of the way unless you get a yes.[/color]" It wasn't a question. It wasn't even an accusation. It was just a very obvious fact. One he hated. 

He massaged the bridge of his nose with another sigh. "[color=9400D3]Very well, come. But your life is your own responsibility.[/color]" 

With that as the final note, he stepped around her and started off again. It was up to them to join him. Kiba would make the job easier; Adelyn was likely to complicate it. So, ultimately, whether they joined or not - it seemed the difficulty would remain the same. The only thing that would change would likely be tactics.
