Rex doesn't seem to mind though, as he goes bounding off yet again in pursuit of the tool.
"He really is a weird baneblade." Mika giggles, taking another sip of a drink she'd grabbed out of the base. She gave you one, but you've mostly ignored it.
Now, having worked up quite a sweat; you sit down, set your hat aside to air out, and chug it all in one go.
"Damn, that hit the spot." You comment after a refreshed "ahhhh".
"Feeling better? W-what do you want to do?" Mika asks nonchalantly from her seat beside you.
"Kick back and quit getting attacked, at least for a few hours." You chuckle, tossing aside the can.
A long, quiet moment passes, but it isn't a bad one.
The sun is setting, and that makes quite the backdrop to silhouette the gorgeous girl sitting next to you. She catches you staring, blushes hard, and turns away to watch the sun go down.
"So, got any family?" She asks.
"Yeah, a dorky little sister. You?"
"M-me? Well, an older brother." She smiles down at her drink.
"Siblings, can't live with them, can't toss them to the tyranid swarm." You sigh as you lay down, head in her lap.
"Ah?!" Comes her easy-to-call reaction. She doesn't protest further though, and you actually feel her fingers touch the top of your head lightly.
Her stomach growls.
"Hungry?" You grin up at her embarrassed frown. |
