Roxy shook her head. "I'm tone deaf." She had no interest in music beyond enjoying it. That didn't keep her from admiring his skill. She had spent her whole life in the shadows. She couldn't imagine doing something so public. She knew this would change her life. Hopefully for the better. Right now her only goal was surviving.

"You're weird." Roxy commented when Wyn called her sunshine. It wasn't a word that anyone would use to describe her. "I'm nore shadow than sunshine." She told him. She had spent most of her time hidden. She wasn't sure that she wanted to step into the light but she knew her actions might force her to. "We should see lights soon. It's not an ideal place to stop but it's late. Unless you want to drive we should stop."

Wyn scoffed in amusement at her response about being tone deaf. "I guess you've somehow managed to figure that much out. No matter, I'm sure you'll be able to pick up something else that'll help you connect with others. Although you seem to be doing fine right now, unless I'm just special."

"Shadow? Hmm..." he repeated, feigning being in deep thought. "It's definitely a way more unconventional term of endearment, but it can work. Sunshine might be bright and warm, but shadows have their own mysterious allure. I can see how that suits you better."

He had not realized how much time had passed until she suggested stopping. "You know, that isn't a bad idea. We need to rest, and let the vehicle rest, but we should still rest in shifts though. I mean, can't be too careful, can we? Heck, I'll even take the wheel after."

"I shouldn't let my bodyguard tire herself out in case something happens. Hey, maybe you could teach me a thing or two once we get somewhere safe," he then finished off with another teasing wink.

"You're something alright." Roxy told Wyn. She didn't know what to make of the guy. This was the most she had interacted with someone since she was sixteen. She didn't understand him.

"It's not a term of endearment." She snapped. Why the hell would he give her something like that? That was something that couples did. She didn't know what they were but they weren't a couple. The last thing she needed was more complications.

"Sure. Why not." Roxy rolled her eyes. While he might be cooperating with her at the moment didn't mean he would continue to do so. The last thing she was going to do was give him the means to take her down. "I might not be as smart as you Wyn but that doesn't mean I'm going to give up the slim advantage I have over you."

"As long as I'm leaving an impression, eh?" He replied, somewhat absentmindedly, to what he assumed was a compliment by Roxy's standards.

"Psh, call it what you want," he then playfully retorted at her defensiveness about the definition of a term of endearment. "Not that it matters anyway, shadow."

He ended off with another wink, rather amused at the reaction, although a part of him wondered if he was starting to tread on dangerous ground with her. She had been apathetic for the most part, with even her occasional expression of irritation at him being fairly subtle. He had not expected such a strong reaction from her over the nickname thing, out of all the topics they have had exchanges about so far. Regardless, he had to admit that the sudden display of emotion was at least refreshing.

"Oh? Am I smarter now? You've got to make up your mind up on that one," he teased, remembering all her insinuations about him not being too bright back at the bunker. He then shrugged. "Ah well, it was worth a shot, but I'd probably run before fighting you for any reason. Doesn't matter what your chances of winning are, running is always the best defense. Anyway, you're probably tired from driving, so I can take the first shift while you nap once we pull over."

Roxy snorted when Wyn stated him was leaving an impression. She would never admit it but that's exactly what he was doing. He confused her.

She shook her head when he called her shadow. If only he knew. She supposed it didn't matter. That life wasn't open to her anymore. She would have to figure out a new life for herself bit first things first. She had to secure her freedom.

"Snart in some way but not so smart in others." Roxy clarified. He was definitely more educated than she was. After he had been in college but he hadn't much real world knowledge. He probably hadnt even lived on his own yet. "Running isn't a defense." She told him. Although technically that was what she was doing. Unfortunately it was the only option she had. "Naps are for children. I'll sleep once we stop. If you want to take over I guess this is as good of a place as any." She pointed to the sign for the Stateline. There was a small area there for people to park and take pictures.

Wyn shrugged at her clarification. "I mean, sure, I'll take that, but not what you said about running, though. I'm sure many martial arts instructors would disagree with you on that. As far as I know, a good one would always tell you not to fight if you can run. There's no shame in doing what we're doing right now. I'd say we're both at least smart enough to know we should be running."

He scanned their surroundings as Roxy slowed the vehicle to a stop among others. The area was indeed pleasant to the eyes. The surrounding trees separating the open gravel from the woods and the calm surface of the small, nearby lake reflecting the soft light of the Moon provided a refreshing view of the natural environment. As evident from the other cars parked within the area, they were not alone. Several other people were present, enjoying the scenery and one another's company.

"Oh yeah, this is a great place," he agreed, and then sighed. "It's really too bad that this van kind of stands out. I could see us being able to hide here in plain sight if we had a car your dad and his people wouldn't recognize. I'd love to spend some time around here. The view is gorgeous, romantic even."

He shot her a quick glance and audibly cleared his throat after that last comment, then proceeded to open the door and climb out of the passenger's seat. "Alright, I guess we switch out here. You need your rest."
