Juliana: fidgeting with her sleeve Hey, um, this is my brother. We're, uh, just here for a hike.
I give a slight nod to her
Juliana smiles nervously and glances at you, hoping you'll say something. She's clearly uncomfortable with this situation, but she's trying to keep a calm demeanor. She clears her throat and tries to sound casual. So, uh, how long will we be staying here?
the stranger turns around and sees me, I’m an elf, and he goes pale as he notices the clan mark on my arm.
Juliana looks at you, concerned. She glances back at the stranger, who looks at your clan mark with fear in his eyes.
Juliana: "Hey, it's alright." She puts a hand on your shoulder and tries to reassure you. "What's wrong?"
I hold onto her hand under the table
looks down at your hand on hers, smiling faintly She looks up at the man, trying to keep a straight face. Don't worry, he's harmless. Just a bit... shy.
I keep quiet as I'm scared of social interactions
Juliana puts an arm around you to try and reassure you It's okay, don't worry. He's harmless. She gives you a quick glance, silently apologizing for putting you in this situation
The stranger's eyes widen slightly as he takes in their appearance. "Oh? A hike, huh?"
Juliana nods, still fidgeting with her sleeve. "Yeah, yeah, we just want to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Nothing too crazy." She smiles awkwardly, trying to hide her nervousness.
I smile at her and I nod hi
Juliana gives a small, forced smile in return, still slightly nervous. She glances at you briefly before speaking to the man again. Yeah, we're just here for some fresh air and a bit of exercise. You know, get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
he smirks Oh, I see... And what's your name?
Juliana quickly composes herself and replies confidently My name is Juliana. Nice to meet you. She looks at you discreetly, silently conveying her concern through her eyes.
I kiss her cheek sis don't worry he won't harm us
she blushes slightly and rolls her eyes Of course not. Just making sure. she smiles and puts her arm around your shoulder We were just about to head out.
i look around, noticing the tension. what's wrong?
Juliana sighs and glances at the stranger before responding quietly, ensuring he doesn't overhear It's nothing. Just being cautious. That man seems suspicious, and I don't want to take any chances.
I nod to her and smile kindly as I continue on walking past them
Juliana relaxes slightly but still watches the man with a mixture of caution and curiosity. Thanks for not making a big deal about it. She mutters to you under her breath.
I smile gently, nodding at the stranger. Nice to meet ya.
Juliana relaxes a bit, returning the smile Thanks. Nice to meet you too. Uh, we just got here today, so we're still getting settled in.
he smirks oh, a handsome young couple, eh?
Juliana blushes, but maintains her composure. Uh, yeah. We're just passing through. She looks at you with a silent pleading look, hoping you don't say anything stupid.
I glance at you then back at the guy Hi
Juliana smiles reassuringly at you, giving you an encouraging look. She turns back to the man and tries to sound friendly. Yeah, just enjoying the beautiful scenery. We won't be here long.
I hug her tightly sis I'm glad your safe
Juliana hugs you back, feeling relieved and worried all at once Don't worry about me. I can take care of myself. I'm just glad you're safe too.
I'm a female elf who's hiding behind a tree, I look up at Juliana and give her a scared look
noticing you, Juliana gives you a reassuring smile Hey, it's okay. We're not here to hurt you. I promise.
I look confused and whisper to Juliana why did you lie?
whispering back I don't want anyone to know we're here alone. It's not safe for us.
i nod and walk next to juliana
Juliana puts an arm around you protectively as the man studies you with a calculating gaze. Under her breath, she whispers, Stay calm. Don't say anything suspicious.
