Luka kept close beside Ellie, using her voice to continue guiding himself across the park. He bowed his head slightly as he listened to her answer his question, finding some amusement in her response. It was so open and honest, quite unlike how most people spoke to him. Strangers and even his adoptive parents coated their words in sugar and cloaked them in white lies; as if the truth would do him more harm. "He sounds like he was pretty great," he responded lightly. It was nice to learn something about his father, even if he'd never get the chance to meet him. He turned his pale gaze towards her again "It sounds like you two saved each other," he offered. He adverted his gaze, feeling something graze his foot. He brushed the stick out of his way with his foot, so as to not trip on it. "Thank you, for answering my questions..." he added after a moment.
Caspian pressed his back against the cool wall and tilted his head up. He briefly closed his eyes and muttered what sounded like a prayer. He wasn't a religious man, but he'd call to the universe for a little bit of luck on their side here. He looked back at his partner and nodded "Alright, best plan we got. Head back the way we came," he said. At least they'd already scanned the area as they came in. He didn't think their assailants would make their way that way. It was likely their best bet. However, he was disappointed to be going back empty handed. Let's focus on making it back there first he reminded himself. "Ready?" he asked her.
