out of character here


The tawny man made wise choice choking up mid sentence. She was being truthful when she said that. Even if they didn't have a good relationship with one another, Alister being the reason for all the drama in her life lately, he was pack and she wouldn't wish any harm upon him. Sidra's ears pressed forwards dominantly for a moment before he stopped himself and changed the words on his tongue. A brow was raised as Alister fumbled with a 'thank you' obviously not sure how to react to her sudden kindness. Her eyes never left him, absorbing the embarrassment that gleamed off of him as his own eyes darted to the ground. The sound of the storm outside softened her gaze a considerable amount, the fear shooting back into her amethyst eyes. Her head dropped, eyes focusing on the ground trying to cut out the sound of trees snapping and wind blowing harshly against the courthouse.


The leopard woman glanced up at Alister as he reassured her the courthouse was a safe place to be during the storm. Still, she didn't feel it was. The stormed that raged outside it's wall was loud and angry, even these walls couldn't hold up forever against it. There was a reason all of the horses were acting up, threatening to battle each other in fright of the hurricane. His smile was awkward and she refused to smile back only adding onto the strange atmosphere. Her voice filled the air, sharp with irritation. Obviously it's safe. Why would Jazper and Aly chose to put us here if it wasn't. The eye contact with Alister broke, Sidra feeling really silly for reinforcing the assurances the knight gave her with some of her own. In all honesty, she shouldn't be afraid of the storm. She'd been through much worse times than this and survived. The nasty scars that covered her thin frame were proof of that. But, there was something about the hurricane that caused and unavoidable fright. I do wish it would pass already though. Soloman is restless and has been causing trouble...he hates storms like this. Sidra couldn't bring herself to look up at Alister when she spoke of Soloman. It was really her own feelings that she'd passed along through her horse and she was embarrassed for being terrified.
