Dragoncrest Cliffs a momentary lapse of happily

 blix had thought she'd feel relieved when artaax reassures her they're fine, but somehow she only feels slightly worse. he seems so.. unbothered - though she's quickly proven wrong about that in his meaningful pause and anxiety-laden words. "of course i'm worried," she answers, her brow crinkling slightly, "if i wasn't worried i wouldn't have wanted to come at all." 

 this seems, to her, a fairly obvious thing, but artaax does always seem so carefree and unbothered by anything. she'd never thought that he wasn't affected, but maybe he's struggling more than she thought. maybe he's struggling like she is. "are you... worried?" the girl echoes, meaning something slightly different, but wondering if he'll get it, too.
