Yang nodded her head before she stopped in front of a dust shop. It looked like it was running VERY low on stock. "Wanna try taking a look?"

" I think I can relate to that.. But we can't beat ourselves up for things we can't control. "

"Well, it is nice to meet you two at least." Yang nodded her head, letting Ruby rest a bit on her. "Let's go back then, from here on it's a smooth ride." She would then adjust the vehicle and keep going, keeping a steady speed, not too fast... Just enough to reach soon. [🦎]

Shade and co. (☔🔥🖤🐊�̷̥̺̇̅🌹🤖)@shade-and-others.bsky.social · last wk.

🌹"It's nice for you all to meet each other finally. . . even in a situation like this." 🌹"Anyways, we can get to know each other more once we get back to the café, besides. . . I'm getting tired from all this moving around." *She lets out a sleepy yawn, leaning slightly onto Yang for support* (💛)

"Well.... take care... okay?..." Still looking suspicious over Robyn.

It's TOTALLY normal! Everyone's got'em! They're all the rage!

Yeah... Because it sure is very normal to have silver eyes!

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Yeah, well.. I'm sure you get that sometimes. " Shrug..

"Just someone very close..." She reminded her a bit of Ruby...

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Yeah? Who? And why? "

"You do remind me of someone I know...." Narrowing her eyes...

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

Oh, so that DIDN'T immediately tip her off. Robyn tosses the shades. " Right, right. Cool then. "

"We do everything we can to help but there are days it doesn't feel like it's enough."

𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙒𝙚'𝙡𝙡 𝙍𝙞𝙨𝙚@risefromshadows.bsky.social · last wk.

" I feel bad for the people here.. " More than she did before, of course. I mean, the conditions were already obviously bad.

"Yeah, I can see that. Look, if you don't want to tell me, it's fine. I can understand wanting to hide those eyes... But believe me, it's all cool."

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" I'm a great liar, but that's off topic. "

Crossing her arms and raising an eyebrow... "You are such a bad liar."

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" No? Nobody has those, never seen them before. "

"And you know about silver eyes?..." Robyn was not doing a good job!

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" What? No. " Lowering her shades. " They're more like a grey. Nobody has silver eyes, that's not a thing. "

"Robyn with a -" ....... "You have silver eyes?!...."

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Wait, really? You do? With a Y and everything? " Lifting her sunglasses to raise an eyebrow at her. Robyn, you fucking--

"I'm not sure who they bought the recent dust, but for a while, they had very big mines all through the desert, all of them being explored by other nations. So this place isn't just a normal desert... They also mined the country dry and left it."

𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙒𝙚'𝙡𝙡 𝙍𝙞𝙨𝙚@risefromshadows.bsky.social · last wk.

" .. Must've been relying on imports from Atlas.. " ... And that's not happening again any time soon..

"I do know a Robyn, one of the most badass huntress as a matter of fact. I just don't know you."

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Well I don't know what else you want from me. " She huffs, crossing her arms. " It's not like I'm anyone you'd know or anything, we're total strangers. You don't even know a Robyn. " .... Funnily enough, Robyn does not know Robyn.

"All right, miss acting suspicious Robyn 'I don't know my last name well'.... You think you can fool anyone with this?"

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Robyn? Already told you. "

"Okay..." Taking her sunglasses off, placing it on the vehicle in front of her, she crosses her arms. "Who really are you?"

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Maybe? " ......... 💧

"You struggle to pronunciation your own name?..." That alone was weird, but especially one short and easy to remember!

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Nah I just mispronounce it sometimes" Braun is not difficult to pronounce??

"You really seem to struggle to remember names... No? Including your own..." NOW she was a bit suspicious...

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Yeah, totally. I'm a Braaa- Braun. That's. My last name. Robyn Braun. "

"You going to be okay on your own?"

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

Hopping off of Bumblebee. " Yep.. Huge place. Easy to get lost. "

After some minutes, they reached the edge of Mistral. "As big as always eh? This city is so weird to me."

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Yeah, totes. The coolest. " ( 💭Wow, Yang really didn't change a bit, huh? )

"Don't mention it, I'm glad to help. Us cool gals gotta stick together!" Referring to both using shades and having a mechanical arm!

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

( Oh, trust her, she knows.. She's just not used to not being 'Known' by them. ) " Yeah, you probably saved my ass back there. Getting too in over my head and all that. "

"Hopefully no one saw you there..." She said while they were driving. "Heard some very nasty stories about that tribe, not the kind of things a young huntress like us should get involved with."

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Glad to be out of enemy territory there. "

"Good choice, on it!" She accelerates it towards the city!

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Uh.. Mistral. Main city. "

"Well, yeah... Just asking where you were heading... Because I do not have any destination in mind."

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Uh, thought you were giving me a ride? "

"Where ya going?"

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Yeah, sure. Totes. " She'll just hop on the back.

"Want a ride away from here?" She pointed to her motorbike!

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Yep, figured. I learned my lesson and all that. "

"Okay, I can tell you are not from here... This is a dangerous place for a huntress, okay? If that tribe catches even a sniff of you, they will try to kiII you."

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" I mean, it could be any criminals in there, really- "

"Yes... the Branwen in specific..." Which is why Yang was so worried...

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" Yeah, you know. Criminals hang out in the woods. "

"Around those woods?...."

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" You know, hunting crime and stuff. Like a huntress. "

"So Robyn... What brought you here?" Weird to not give a last name, but Yang didn't seemed to mind.

𝙻𝚒𝚝𝚝𝚕𝚎 𝙱𝚒𝚛𝚍@silverpetais.bsky.social · last wk.

" It's Robyn. " No last name, of course!
