Moonspear cat and mouse

Fading here if that's OK? Sorry if it was slow and/or uneventful; Laz tends to make others uncomfortable and IDK what else he could be doing, aside from randomly attacking Dash, which he wouldn't really do.

The boy made a comment which carried with it a hint of humor, though his tone seemed more serious than Lazarus' own comment. The pale man had been trying to be funny. It wasn't his forte, so the manner in which the boy took his words left much to be desired, and in seeing this and feeling a bit rejected by his attempt at conversation, the burly creature decides swiftly to end the exchange. He grunts, and his steps carry him around and away from the dark boy, no longer interested in whatever fleeting conversation had been present before. Silently, and without looking back or addressing him in any way, Lazarus chooses to slip away from his companion and carry on along the mountain path.
