[ for a half a moment she falters before recovering quickly. ]
O, oh... [ it was such an easy question and one that anyone could see coming and yet it still catches her a little off guard. she had approached him and made conversation—thought about getting to know him better and yet... ] I'm fine with that; we can walk together.
[ she settles into a more confident smile and not as nervous disposition. even though their conversation had gone this direction, she hadn't expected him to say it so plainly. it was nice to have someone just say things as they were, however. ]
It won't be long before we're allowed to be on our own, I feel. [ as though they aren't already left alone all things considered. ] Are you going to explore more high places or will you keep your eyes closer to the ground?
[ his head tilts a little at the way she falters a bit, but doesn't try to read into it too much. while he does worry about her obvious nervous hiccup there, if something's wrong, hopefully she'll either say it or it'll work itself out eventually with them talking more. ]
It probably depends on whatever we see once we're properly released here.
[ with a massive drop like this, he couldn't resist peering over the edge and he can't make any promises that if he's thrown in another place with a great view he won't scope it out. but he will try to heed her warning about being careful earlier and apply it to further situations. ]
I don't want to possibly miss something interesting.
[ he'll nod his head in one direction, indicating a direction for them to stroll away from the area that they're in and starts to take a few paces. nothing fast and making sure she'll be able to keep up. ]
[ he doesn't have to worry about her keeping up with him since she'll be only a few steps behind him. it might be a little strange that she won't keep a perfect pace with him while capable of it, if anything, he could note how precisely and perfectly she remains two steps behind his one. perhaps, in a way, as timing things between them.
she laces her fingers behind her back as she considers the last thing he mentioned. ]
What would you consider as interesting?
[ since, you know, that is very telling in a person right from the gate. some people lived for simpler things like watching birds or reading books... what kind of things was he interested in? ]
[ that pacing is something that he'll notice, but won't comment on. people have their different idiosyncrasies and as long as someone isn't hurting anyone with what they do, he has no reason to comment on it or question why. he will, however, shoot a smile back at her. ]
Mm... I think a lot of things could be interesting. [ he laughs a little, rubbing his neck some, realizing how vague that sounds. ]
Even if a situation or place could seem boring, there's always something that could be made interesting.
[ by that statement, it should be obvious that he's the type that makes a lot of his own fun when he's with people, that he likes to see people laugh and enjoy themselves. even if she doesn't quite mean that, the point is that interesting things can be found anywhere and he isn't about to turn away from a situation, just in case there's something to be found there. ]
