he seemed relieved to have found a friend instead of a stranger.  if she were honest with herself, she was, too.  strangers could be interesting, but there was comfort to be found in something more predictable.  not that she knew him well enough to predict him.  prophet, she echoed in greeting.

are you lost?  you did not call for me, she chided with playful intent, tilting her head as she surveys him from below.
