The moment Lelianna could take off the coat she did (trying not to tear it off her antlers). When her face became visible she shot Wren a slightly peeved look and huffed, deciding not to respond to his comment. She was not a coat rack! But whatever, she could push that aside to get a good look at Wren and indeed make sure he was ok. Though she frowned a little at his comment about being so safe in the woods. Lelianna's face turned pensive for a moment, as though she was debating on saying something, but in the end she just shook her head. "The forest isn't...It's just not always the safest out here, y'know..." Lelianna trailed off in a bit of a mumble.
But yes, back to observing how Wren was doing.
He didn't immediately fall over when he got up, which Lelianna had shifted slight for in case that had occurred. Fortunately he stayed upright and even walked towards Lelianna. Hey, he was taller! Although after meeting Jason a few days ago, he wasn't the absolute tallest person she'd seen. At least this way she knew the giants hadn't taken over!
When Wren placed a hand on Lelianna's shoulder, she relaxed a little but still bit her lip in a tiny bout of worry. But if he really thought he was ok...Lelianna sighed but smiled a little bit. She wasn't Wren's mom, or even (technically) his friend. "Sorry I just...Wasn't sure if you'd gotten hurt or anything. If you really say you're alright, then....well, you probably know yourself better than I do." Laughing a little, Lelianna shifted on her feet. But she looked up when Wren's words got a little heavier. Whoa, had he had bad experience with a doctor before? There was just something about his tone that was off a bit. Pressing her lips together, Lelianna didn't immediately say anything on it.
"I-I'm alright now, so I wouldn't need to go somewhere warmer. But what about you? Are you just staying here or do you need to go somewhere?" Because you could bet that Lelianna would at least join him until they reached the edge of the woods. Simply to make sure he didn't pass out again; Lelianna still suspected it might occur once more.

Not thinking twice about the strange familiarity with his own lies and casting them out of his mind under the assumption that he was just getting used to spewing the same excuses time and time again, the heaviness that had somehow been seasoned into his expression quickly dissipated in a way that made it seem as if it had never even been there in the first place. "Well, I'd sure hope that I knew myself better than you did," Although this line would likely contain some heat if had been said in a deadpan or sarcastic manner, the ghost's words held no such weight; in fact, the way they were coupled with his widening smile made it seemed lighthearted enough to the point of naivety. Despite his outwardly buoyant attitude, Wren was actually slightly disappointed that his casual, — seemingly comforting — physical contact had been received by Lelianna as just that: comforting. In all honesty, the ghost was actually hoping that she'd grow a little bit more tense from it, but it wasn't as if this sort of small disappointment didn't happen on a daily basis... Mood-wise, it really only affected him as much as randomly finding a losing lottery ticket on the ground would. Retracting his hand, Wren absentmindedly threaded it through his brown hair in order to momentarily push his bangs off his forehead. "You know, you worry too much," Wren's tone was slightly sing-song in manner, showing that he meant no actual offense, "Someone once told me that it's bad for your health." Having finished with his hair, the ghost reached up again in order to use his thumb and middle finger in order to gently flick Lelianna's antlers; the action was mostly meant to be a teasing gesture, but there was a small sliver of him that had merely done it to satiate a playful curiosity. |

Yes, Lelianna hoped Wren knew himself better than she did. Because she had no clue about how this boy worked. Passing out regularly? Of course she'd be concerned over something like that. But with the level of casualness the boy was treating it with, Lelianna wasn't sure. There was so much she wasn't sure about. Especially right now.
Truth be told Lelianna hardly registered the hand had still been on her shoulder. Instead her attention was draw to Wren's words. Which were definitely meant to tease her for her reaction. Puffing up a little, she put a hand on her hip. "Someone once told me fainting at random wasn't necessarily good for your health either." She shot back, albeit in a slightly playful tone. Though that niggling sense of worry likely wouldn't leave her head anytime soon, the flick to her antlers definitely distracted her.
"Hey! I get enough of that from the branches around here!" She protested, lightly swatting Wren's hand away with a small frown. She'd run into any number of things with these dang antlers of hers, and gotten her fair share of things tangled in them too. Or the occasional spider making a web in one or both of them. Really her antlers got into a lot of trouble.
But Lelianna took this as something of an answer. He seemed....ok? At the very least he was acting like he was doing fine; fine enough to flick at her antler. After a moment of debate she sighed. "Well.....If you really are feeling alright then I guess I should probably head off." She still had to finish her little patrol. Besides that fact, there was a nearly insistent hum in the back of her mind, as though the forest was trying to get her attention. "Were you going to stay here or....?"

Despite Lelianna's playful tone, Wren's response more or less made it seem like the whole "joke" had gone straight over his head. "... Why'd someone tell you that? Do you faint, too?" He blinked twice in slow succession, making himself seem all the more air-headed... Which, ironically, was what his android host's head was more or less filled with at the moment. Despite his calm and curious expression, Wren didn't miss a beat. As soon as his right hand was swatted away, his left quickly picked up where the first left off by speedily reaching up and flicking Lelianna's other antler, as if it were some type of game. "From the branches?" The ghost repeated the girl's words back at her, as if to try and convey that he didn't understand what exactly she was saying. Either way, though, despite the fact that he looked somewhat confused, his playful nature still seemed to shine through through his actions alone. It was only when Lelianna mentioned leaving that the playful aura that he had was somehow muffled by him taking a step backwards. "Mmmm... I'm not sure," Wren gave off a nonchalant shrug that seemed to contrast the confident smile he quickly adopted soon after, "I'm just wandering around. It's not like I have a real destination in mind... So I'll figure it out as I go" Although he had the tendency to lie and exaggerate, this was an answer that was a rather honest one... even if it was rather wishy-washy in nature. |

Lelianna stared at Wren for a second or two. He wasn't...serious was he? Lelianna hardly thought she was the type of person to be able to make a joke that would fly straight over someone's head like that. And up until this point Wren had seemed fairly competent to be making most of the quips himself anyways. So he had to be fooling her, right? Lelianna decided to just keep going along, even if she was a little "off tune" with it now. "No, but...I-I mean if I find people in the woods who keep passing out I should know that's a bad thing. So I, ah, learned it." She finished ever so elegantly, one hand on her hip.
Way to take the wind out of her sails, Wren.
With how fast Wren moved, Lelianna wasn't able to knock his other hand away in time before he hit her antler. Her frown deepened and she swatted at his hand again, taking a step back from the boy this time. "Yes from the branches! They get caught up in my antlers all the time! Sometimes on purpose." The forest did loving toying with the poor earth magi on a daily basis, so anything ranging from caught antlers to literally getting smacked on the ass was possible for her. Arecia Woods was surprisingly playful, as most people didn't realize.
When Wren's demeanor changed, Lelianna only caught onto it a little. He still seemed nonchalant and unaffected, but his playfulness had gone down a notch or half. Combined with the fact he didn't apparently have anywhere he was actually planning on going, and Lelianna was a little suspicious. Worried of course, but suspicious nonetheless. "Well...Are you sure you'll be alright on your own? I wouldn't want you wandering into a group of bears or anything." While they were friendly or at least tolerant towards Lelianna, the denizens of the forest didn't always take kindly towards outside visitors.
