first encounter ; 0 days

If there were any luck in the world, Chivason would have been sound asleep by now. He'd had a wonderful dinner — courtesy of sweet, old Mrs. Jann — and he'd eaten enough to be pleasantly drowsy, and then some. To cap it all off, she'd offered him a bed (a bed) and tucked him in as only a grandmother could. He didn't really have much to worry about, still having a few valuables tucked away in his knapsack, enough to cover a few weeks even if she decided to change her mind about letting him stay free-of-charge, and he certainly hadn't been here long enough to need to think about moving on.

Whatever the reason, though, he stayed in bed long enough to need to roll over half a dozen times before he finally gave up. Carefully tucking the blanket back under the pillow, he snagged his knapsack and tiptoed outside. He let his mind drift as he walked, hoping it would help him relax enough to actually sleep. He had liked his last stop, even gone so far as to make a few friends. He should have known better than to try helping Lia find her necklace. She was too excited when she asked him if he would walk with her. He scoffed softly at himself— then tripped, tried to catch himself, and faceplanted in the dirt.

Huffing, Sefton looked away. He shifted his bag properly over his shoulders and began to walk away. "Don't follow me."
polarization: (〉 can't you see i'm a fool?)

Sefton glanced back and watched Chivy out of the corner of his eye. That was... surprisingly easy.

Continuing to watch, Sefton felt his irritation begin to rise. "What are you doing?"

"Don't believe that."
polarization: (〉 the fire in your heart is out)

[personal profile] polarization 2009-11-27 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
Sefton considered that. "Your name's Chivy?"

"It'd be pretty dumb to lie 'bout your name," he agreed.
polarization: (〉 realized what you gotta do)

[personal profile] polarization 2009-11-27 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Sefton scowled a little to himself, then shrugged.

"We aren't headed anywhere."
polarization: (〉 you think i'm in love)

[personal profile] polarization 2009-11-27 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
Sefton turned to look at him. "That's it?"

"... Think you missed the point."

[personal profile] polarization 2009-11-27 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
"There is no 'we', Chivy."

[personal profile] polarization 2009-11-27 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
"Then cut it out."
polarization: (〉 oops i did it again)

[personal profile] polarization 2009-11-27 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
"Following me."
