”There is not much to ogle, unless you like spoiled meat.” The thief complied with the boy, turning away. His attention wondered to his satchel. He stashed the cloth from the underwear inside wondering what price the fine fabric would fetch to a seamstress.

it was slow work to dress but his limbs worked when prompted and the vertigo that always hounded him after magic was leaving as well. slipping into the course clothing he frowned. this was ridiculous to him and unnecessary as well, he could be carried back through the tunnel easily enough even with a rip in his trousers and a pain in his head, it was the the thief's lunacy that prevented him from getting home and he was not please at all

[Poggio]

While waiting for the young boy his attention began to wander. He no long thought about the brat behind him, The thief was more concerned about the people he might not ever seen again. For the moment he abandoned Yianni in favor of hunting though his satchel. He had little time to make it to the planned rendezvous point. His impatience grew towards the other he now deemed a burden. “Are you ready..Ye...Yianni?”

[littl3chocobo]

he was loosely knotting the shirt when the other spoke. he had to hold back his first response. "i am as ready as i can be, take me home now i have done what you asked" looking up at the back he made a face, "you promised"

[Poggio]

The Thief was surprised the noble looked some what decent in commoners clothing. Secretly he had been expecting the other to have a nobleish aura that prevent him from blending in. He scoff then his lips turned into a smirk. “It will cost you another boon, to make sure things are done in a timely manner Yianni. When was not part of the deal.” He shrugged with a cocky grinn. “Sorry I will show you, but I have a to do list first, now follow me, please and try not to speak.” He led the other through the alley way and out into the streets. His eyes shifted, until he knew where they were. Unfortunately the route took them away from the castle.

[littl3chocobo]

he tried to keep up with the other's pace but he was still a little sluggish and in the end had to latch onto the thief's shirt so as not to get left behind

[Poggio]

He turned hand raised to whom ever was about to attack him but he found it was only the noble. He did not realize the man was still such and invalid. He took the boys fingers away from the fabric of his shirt and intertwined them with his own. "If I promise you will leave this venture with your dignity, and no more ogling. My I help you with out you thinking it is nothing more?"

[littl3chocobo]

he gritted his teeth but the words still escaped, "you molested abused and stole me all in the span of a night, i have lost most of my dignity as well as my underpants, you had no right to ogle to begin with...i will take your offer but not as a sign of peace but as my rightful due"

[Poggio]

He dropped the others hand and simply stared at him. His fingers curled into a fist around the straps of his satchel. A slow fury was boiling. “I retract my offer, perhaps it will do you well to spend time among the people. Good day Yexiall. If I find you again, I will assist you to the castle.” He once again started his stride and paused searching the market place

[littl3chocobo]

he blanched but said nothing, the other really was planning to leave, he was just being played with. he felt the tight feeling of tears behind his eyes and crushed them under anger, "you can stop lying already you damn thief, i am finished with you leading me on and playing me like a toy, go already." he didn't look towards the man. he didn't want to see the retreating back lest he cry

[Poggio]

With a single finger gesture he told the boy what he really though. Once among the streets he paused by the first vendor he found, getting rid of some of the more heavier trinkets he stole from the castle. It made his bag lighter, and his pocket much happier. The next order of business was his stomach, then the rendezvous. He drifted towards a fruit stand.

[littl3chocobo]

in the end he could not be a man and the tears fell silently. letting them fall he sat in the dirt and rested against the wall. he had no clue as to how to find his way home now

[Poggio]

He paid the man his silver and realized he left something important in the alley. Grouping around his neck the weight that was constantly around his neck was missing. He brushed past the boy sitting near the edge of the alley and went to go search near where he changed his clothes. Quickly he snatched up the abandoned necklace. He came again to..."Yexiall, what are you doing here?" He asked half paying attention. His attitude change when he saw the tears, he crouched near him offering his hand. "Please do not cry. The world is not as scary as it seems. I will make sure you get home if you trust me." He measured the boy. "If you trust me, you may call me Ree." If the boy trust him he would be one of the few that were close to knowing his real name.

[littl3chocobo]

he looked up into the sympathetic eyes for several seconds before he realized what he was doing was wrong. whipping his head away he hastily removed as much of the wet he could. "of-of course it isn't you fool, i thought you were leaving, don't stick around just to be an asshole"

[Poggio]

Ree stared at the other, hesitant to bring his arm back. Shaking his head he dug his hands into his pocket and fished out a few coins and laid them in a pile next to the boy. He tipped his hat before rising again. He shuffled on his way realizing he had already lost a lot of time.

[littl3chocobo]

he didn't cry this time, his anger at the other's actions outweighed his own fears. when the man had gone he picked himself up off of the ground and left the alleyway. he didn't bother with the coins
