Pulling his now clean arms from out of the water and grabbing some extra cloth wrappings. He was about to redress his hand when he felt a pressure on his shoulder. It wasn’t heavy, but there was a pleasant warmness to it. That warmest spread throughout his arms it was gentle and friendly, so much so that he missed it a little bit when it was gone. Shaking the water from his hands and then rewrapping them in a few strips of cloth after watching his skin and muscle repair itself right before his eyes. He was more than a little impressed not that he would let it show on his face, however. That add with the fact that her undergarments seemed to be much tighter than the clothing she had started practicing in. “I would have to past on the invitation to swim there are the only set of clothing I have on my person and to move about in wet clothing is not something I wish to do right now.” Sitting down on the bank looking to down into the stream pushing his feet down into the water after a thought letting the water remove a few aches. He flexed his arms trying to make sure that everything was the same as before she had started her healing. "That ability is a useful skill."
"True, when you don't have much to begin with, it's a worry to wet what clothes you have. Just remember, it's no better for your clothes to be covered in sweat than it is you yourself." Dipping the outer dress she'd removed into the water, she let out a deep sigh- it was refreshing, even if all she did was get her own stink out of it, followed by wringing the water's excesses out. Laying the dress on a branch that she could reach, the woman stretched before taking a few steps into the water. The water went up to just below her underskirt, that hung idly above her knees, sticking less now that she'd moved around a bit more. "Healing is helpful, but so is swordsmanship. I'd like to become stronger at both over time. Though, your sneaking skills are pretty amazing too, don't you think?" Glancing towards him, she twirled in the water, allowing her lower legs to be enveloped by the stream. There were uses for all sorts of skills in this world. Theirs were just a few of many. "Ever mastery has it's purpose. Even my alchemy that I barely work on yet... Think I can make something useful with algae?"
“Well that’s true enough, I’ll be them later. However, there is still some of the day left, and after I leave your comfort, I would prefer not to be walking about in wet clothing. It can be distracting when your clothing clings to you in odd ways when you are practicing.” She seemed tom comfortable with the water however so much was to wade right into the steam to cool down. It was a good idea to show here where its location was it had already paid off when she healed his arms. His energy was up, and the fact he had set the pain setting to realistic made the absence of that stinging to be wonderful. Picking a bit if the algae of the rock and rubbing it between his fingers. “As for if you could make something out of this, I have no idea. I know some variations of seaweed are edible, but I cannot say the same for this without a doubt. It could be used to make a miracle cure, or it could be a deadly poison. I suggest taking a sample and running some test if it’s any good then you can always come back for more. The stream won’t be moving.”
His words left a light echo against her pointed ears, her hands playing with the water below her as she listened to him. He said she was a comfort! For Solaria, this could only be considered one of the best compliments in history. "I'm glad if you're at ease with me. It means I'll be able to do my job in the future much more easily." Her words were said with a soft laugh, eyes looking towards him when she stood straight, wandering back towards the edge. "I could test it, but I'm not fully sure how to do that. I finally got a mortar and pestle recently to work on some potion making, but...That just helps me make things. Testing is a whole other story." Taking a seat at the water's edge, she lifted some of the algae and joined him in moving it within her hands, molding it playfully. "Some algae is quite healthy, but other types aren't. Figuring out which is which is a challenge without our usual equipment, you know? Unless you're a genius, perhaps. Then maybe not so much."
“I have a different calling and not being a genius I cannot help you much in this regard. There should be someone in a town or city that should be able to help you. “Looking at the position of the sun in the sky trying to estimate how much more light would be available in the day. He still had a bit of training he needs to take care if before the sun went down. If he missed that, then the day might be a bit wasted, and that could not be allowed to happen. Washing the algae off of his hands in the water watching it breaking up in the water. “My sneaking skills are not all that impressive I still need much practice but for as I am they are quite handy. The might be a day when I might have to kill someone and not be seen.” Cracking his knuckles as his hand forms a fist, looking down into the water. Letting a breath of air escape his mouth before standing up, offering her a hand to help Solaria to her feet. “This has been nice hasn’t it?”
"While I wouldn't have assumed you a genius, I just assume I'll never meet one. Still, that you'd want to is enough for me!" Smiling, she took the extended hand as he had stood up, joining hip on her feet. She shook the water off her legs and moved to lift her dress, which had dried over time, back over her head. Refreshed, she turned to glance at him, noting the position of the sky. "I'm no genius either, but I know a good person when I see one, and you definitely seem one to me. I can't guess whether you'll have to kill someone someday, but I hope you won't. But whether the time comes or not, I hope you'll rely on me if you need a helping hand or an ear."
Activating the UI and equipping his longbow and quiver pulling out a crow feather arrow examining it put for placing it back into his quiver. Yes, it was time for him to be on is way no matter how much he enjoyed Solaria company. Unfortunately, there was no longer a reason to stick around. Checking to make sure that his hand wrappings were properly it would be excruciating if the drawstring decided to attack his arm after he shoots a bow. He almost laughed when she called him a good person it was a novel concept, him a good guy. Well if that what she thought then he wasn’t going to change her mind and who knew the future. Also as long as he doesn’t have a contract against her, then there will be no reason ever to have to move against her. Giving her a small bow “I will remember your offer, and I hope our paths never cross terribly but now I bit you good day.” Turning away and head off deeper into the wilds, there were things he needs to do before the sunset.
His deep thought on her words was both entertaining and strangely familiar. Oh, right! It was like her roommate, or her roommate's brother, or...Basically anyone she knew? Why did people she know always give her that look of 'where did you get the idea I'm nice'? 'Nah, I'm just imagining it....' There was no way her intuition could be wrong, to her. "Oh! Sorry for keeping you so long, Aal," She chimed, surprised as he seemed to leave in a lazed hurry. She realized, as he left, she'd never bothered to get a way to contact him. She'd have to write his name down to find him later. "If our paths do cross again, surely it'll be for good reasons." As she found herself alone, the elf merely returned to take another dip in the water to enjoy the coolness on her legs. "Maybe next time I'll try attacking a waterfall for endurance practice. I wonder if there any around here..."
