Stone Circle let's try again; you be the lead

Just okay? 

Just okay?

Akuti looked back up to Grayday, as if pleading for him to continue on and say something else, even if it made no sense. If he had pulled a quote from his great-aunt's cousin's childhood crush out of his ass, then maybe things would've been a bit lighter. But just an okay? There was nothing more insulting to the tiny raven than to think that Grayday had no more words left to waste on their conversation.

And yet still, she couldn't bring herself to fight it. Instead, she let the silence between them sizzle and pop with their collective irritation and cluelessness. She inhaled and opened her maw as if she wanted to speak, but she swallowed whatever it was she thought she wanted to say for fear of digging the whole deeper than it already was. Akuti couldn't help but think that maybe this was her fault, and that she had done something to turn him away, but she didn't dare share these concerns.
