"I never said that. I just meant she'll be an annoyance." Arlo shook his head with a little chuckle. |

"Mm, we've dealt with greater annoyances." Rudy countered with a nod. |

It wasn't that Faye was too good to work, it wasn't that at all. She had worked before being a ward, simply under her own choice. But being forced to work under the hand of her kidnapper, under force, was another story. And Faye despised it.
She didn't mind the people she worked with or the people of the place but that damned man. He was infuriatingly interesting and caught her curiosity but she was still furious with him. While Ricardo had been a vile man, a vile king in all regards, this man had still held her against her will as some sort've ransom.
And perhaps it was against the ways but Faye was a very independent and strong willed person. If she had to fight, she was more than willing and if she needed to spit fire, she was even more willing.
Despite all of her temper and how much she despised her situation... she had to admit that she couldn't be absolutely terrible to Rudy, as he wasn't THAT terrible to her. And she had found herself a good hobby, being the 'healer' of the town with a few other women, taking care of the wounded and the sick, as well as helping wash the clothes of the soldiers and such, since she knew best how to get blood out of materials.
Which was exactly what she was handling, carrying clothes out to hang up on the rope outside to dry clothes she had just washed, humming under her breath. |

When Rudy first took Ricardo's ward from him, he had only anticipated keeping the woman captive until he gained enough leverage to have the upper hand against the other king, but time had passed. A great deal of time in fact. Rudy had expected some sort of retaliation or, in the best case scenario the bargaining he'd hoped for, but no such reaction ever came. And with that time, Rudy had admittedly become... accustomed to having the girl, Faye, around.
Even now, he was watching her closely from across the courtyard as she went to hang up the clothes she'd washed. He watched for a moment before going to approach, going to take the basket from her without word. |

Faye jumped as he did, startled upon his appearance. She blinked before giving a slightly amused scoff, following him. "You know, it's rude to snatch things out of peoples hands." she stated. |

"You know, it's rude to talk like that to someone who's technically your better." Rudy teased right back with an amused grin of his own. "It's also rude not to express gratitude for help." |

"Oh, my deepest apologies." Faye said dramatically, dropping to the ground with her head bent. "I am so grateful to you, My Lord!" she teased with a smirk. |

"That's more like it." Rudy teased as he gestured for Faye to get back up. |

Faye scoffed and stood up, reaching for the basket again. "Bored, I take it?" |

"Mm, I suppose. It's been a rather lazy day." Rudy examined as he handed over the basket. |

"Yes, I'm sure you're quite bored without something to shoot arrows at." Faye said, going over to start hanging things up. |

"Quite so. Which is why I'm pestering you." Rudy chuckled as he went to help with the hanging. "Unless you don't want the company or the help." |

"I will gladly take the help." Faye admitted with a chuckle, glancing at him. |

"But not the company?" Rudy asked with a cocked brow and a smirk. |

"Well, if I must." Faye smirked, going back to focusing on hanging things up. |
