[align=center][div style="max-width: 600px; text-align: justify; font-family: georgia; font-size: 10pt;"][color=black]Yes, Elias did surprise her that bad. Mare is an easily startled creature, much like the animals with which she shares a name. But it is not because she fears the entire world, but because she is so easily lost within the world of her thoughts. Such is the life of one with an abundance of escapist fantasies. Everyone lost someone when the world ended, Mare is no exception. But instead of moving on and going forward like many of the survivors, she does her best to fool herself into believing that the world is just how it was before it all went to shit. The loneliness is easier to handle when she loses herself in her thoughts. Not that she will ever admit to it, of course. I'm goin' to work. Mare perks up at this. "Already? It's still only nine o'clock. What time does your bar even open?" Weren't bars like...nighttime things? Then again, Mare is not much of a drinker, so what does she know? At least Elias has a job and is productive instead of hanging out in trees all day like everyone's favorite slacker.
Heterochromatic eyes dart over to Frederick once more. She finds him charming when he gets awkward and flustered. "You're not that old, you know," she remarks with a short laugh. "Plus, I'm not even that high up. I've seen what you can do with a sword so I'd be surprised if you couldn't climb a tree." Does that sound creepy? Like she has been watching him? God, she hopes not. Mare only meant to say that she saw him fight at the raid, but words never really seem to work in her favor. Her cheeks are still tinted pink, and they only blaze hotter at Eli's question. "Of course I'm fine!" she exclaims in embarrassment, which only makes her more embarrassed. "It's just hot and I suck at talking to people." Probably because she isolates herself and substitutes human interaction for imaginary relationships with people.
