If he'd had hands, he would have thrown them into the air by now. Her stubbornness was equal to his own and her heart a vast ocean of gentle strength that didn't budge no matter how many rocks he threw at it. He was impressed, against his will, and in the face of her determination he admitted defeat. But only just.
"Fine!" he cried, rolling his eyes at her as he descended the trail in her wake, breathing a sigh of relief as hooves finally met snow, ice and brown grasses. The lava fields lay behind them, the vast mainland of Helovia spread out ahead - and Cathun had no intentions on going back to the Throat. Not yet.
"Go ahead and do whatever, I'll believe it when I see it. Tell your bloody gods I said hi, will ya? Or wait, no, don't. I'd really rather not have my name known to the likes of them."
He spat on the ground in disgust at the thought, but even as he stepped away from her to leave, the spark-spraying colt gave the girl a smile. It was wry, it was crooked and rather smug, but it was far closer to being friendly than anything he had done so far.
"So, where can I find you once you've completed your self sacrificing quest to save my wretched soul?"
He had been too busy throwing a hissy-fit to pay attention when she'd introduced herself, and now he couldn't remember whether she had mentioned a herd or not. The colt tried to look back on the conversation - well, argument more like - but the thought of her smart comments was so annoying that he gave up without even really trying.
Chances were, he would never see her face ever again. The thought ought to have made him happy and relieved, but to his own surprise the youth felt a stab of disappointment instead. Somehow, in the midst of all the bickering he had actually enjoyed himself... which was even more irksome, and he would never admit it in a thousand years because he would hate giving her right.
Cathun took another step away from Ranjiri, ready to leave without a backwards glance (okay, maybe just a small one, really quick and fleeting).
