Stream 2} Irma and Jade
Jade was out today being a human herself, and she was leaned over the back of the stream collecting water. She had her hair up, and was wearing a pair of overalls and a sweater. She had made her way there a couple hours ago and was now in the collecting phase of her journey. She hummed a little tune as she hung over the bank.
He sniffed it, sending a craving spike down his spine, gog was he thirsty.
No it smelt.. normall...
Fuck it, he closed his eyes and downed the whole thing as he walked.
Jade didn't notice Irma walking because she was very very involved in her work. Once she felt content enough with what she was collecting, she sat back up. She set her jars back in her bag and noticed Irma, she looked up at him and blinked curiously. Her dog ears wiggled in curiousity.
He opened his eyes and hissed at the empty bottle angrily, tossing it to the ground.
"Fucking tiny ass bottle." Irma kicked at it and looked up.
He froze, seeing that he wasn't alone. His first instinct was the jump on the human and rip its throat out. He fought desperately against that though, regretting using up energy to toss things.
It wasn't as if killing a random human he didn't know would make him feel to terribly bad in itself. But if he started that habit up again where would it stop?
He slouched, stuffing his hands in his pockets to keep them trapped, then staggered back and slumped against a tree as he put all his effort into not maiming this strange eared human.
"ooh heey maan diidnt seeee yoouu theeree"
Jade studied the troll, huh they don't usually come out during the day, weird? She picked up her bag, threw it over her sholder, and then rose to her feet. She held the straps on her bag and stood away from her. "oh hi" She waved "I didn't see you there either!"
Fuck, hopefully his bluntness wouldn't start a fight, or make them run. Please don't run.
Jade blinked and looked around. She held her bag and just kinda stared at him from her spot in the grass. "Um wh- what??" Her ears flattened and she defiantly looked confused.
Iram slumped more, letting the tree do the work of holding him up. He wasn't going to risk even one step, he didn't trust himself not even that much.
She watched the troll and crossed her arms, she was a bit upset because she was in a forest and not property so why was someone asking her to leave. She held her bag straps tightly her tail going between her legs "I was kind of busy, and um here first so"
He puffed a bit of hair out of his face, but it fell right back wher eit had been and he gave up on it. He tried to smile at her to show he didn't mean anything by his wording, but instead he just stuck his tongue out. Yeah that was kinda like the same thing. Close enough right?
She stood there uncomfortably, looking at him. What the hell was she supposed to do, I mean she could leave but she was busy. She could also stay, but this person was here now. She uncrossed her arms and took her bag off her shoulder, she would leave once she got what she needed.
She looked over at him, staying still for a couple moments before kneeling down to finish what she was doing. She grabbed a box from her bag and started collecting rocks from the stream. She did this for a couple seconds before looking back over at the stranger "why do you want me to leave anyway??"
She stared at him for a second before standing up. She held her bag tightly and began to get nervous. Her brain and instincts all at that moment screamed get the hell out of there. She grabbed her rock box and walked down the bank away from Irma. She kept her ears and nose open to make sure she wasn't followed.
