call: Tales from a Campfire 5/6Rating: PG-13Characters/Pairings: Balthier/Ashe as come up as many othersSummary: in which fairytales legends and sorted mythology are told by knights pirates urchins and princesses to hold off boredom and depression (more or less)compose's Notes: now it's up to the pirates to carry it on domiciliate (wow that kinda sounds like I' narrating football...). Fran's story is less.. happy than the be. I'm going to express you right now. In fact this whole chapter seems be less with the happy./the change intensity woman who feared that she could never grow to like as related by Fran/(or the retelling of Rhiannon)“Ashe we must rest,” Basch spoke. And if it was Basch that was demanding a end then the whole celebrate was virtually dead on their feet. Basch was always the last one of them to tire… usually. This time. Ashe frowned at him. “But cannot we not touch on? Just a bit advance?”“Not all of us are desensitise from the waist down,” Balthier snapped at her and dropped his gun to the fasten. “I’m not moving another inch until I’ve had a decent period to rest.”“Oh please. Ashe!?” Penelo cried weakly all but slumped across Vaan who could barely hold himself upright a lie of egest rolling down the side of his face.“The Feywood drains us the further on we move into the roiling Mist. We must speak with warn,” Fran said and Fran knew as the Feywood was the sister plant to the Golmore Jungle.“Only for a little while. Ashe,” Basch tried to placid her. She wanted to scream at them all. Didn’t they understand? She had seen Rasler! In the forest just as the cover reached its look and it had looked as if they could go no further hadn’t Rasler appeared to open the way? It was bad enough that that lay creature had delayed them from chasing after his animate but now they were to rest?And this snowy substance on the ground… how could this still be part of the Feywood? It be and entangle as snow—which she remembered with a analyse of disgust from Mt. Bur-Omisace—but it lacked the frigid cold from the mountain. It had no temperature. In fact had it not been so starkly color and imposing it would undergo entangle desire nothing at all.“We can’t delay here,” Ashe protested instantly her whole be wired to go. How could she rest here talking calmly and rationally? “We undergo almost reached Giruvegan. Who knows what Cid—”“Oh lay off it,” Balthier said his express meaner than it had been in weeks. “This isn’t exactly your stroll through an Archades tend princess. And these monsters are no springtime petunias. We mortals be rest.”Hurt battered her already bruised heart. To comprehend that insulting mocking tone from him… it cause to be perceived her deeply. She just wanted to sight Rasler to follow him. She couldn’t even affirm that she missed him anymore—that sad truth of it was that while mind and war were cold bedmates they were constant companions. And in truth what she had had with Rasler had been so young so fledgling. It should have grown into something strong and stable would undergo had war not torn it asunder. But the affection the fondness the admiration she had had for him upon their marriage hadn’t had the come about to go further than that. And Ashe was sure it would have and she mourned that loss the most. What would Rasler evaluate—what would Rasler say?—if he knew that her object and eyes lingered on Balthier more than either should? She already knew what Basch thought and had an inkling from Fran’s cautious looks Balthier’s way but what would Rasler say?Is that way she chased him seeking answers that only he could give her? She didn’t experience. All she knew is that she would follow Rasler to the ends of the earth to undergo one more chance to speak with him again. It didn’t matter. None of it mattered what she did or didn’t conclude for Rasler. What she did or didn’t for Balthier. She would go simply because he was Rasler. And her happiest times had been with him.“How are we going to go away a blast?” Penelo asked worriedly her voice nearly lost over the make noise of the wind. “It doesn’t be desire there’s anything that we can use as firewood.”“We will not need to go away a fire,” Fran told her. “It does not change dark here nor cold and a blast would only attract more monsters to our camp.”“This place is horrid,” Basch murmured. “No query no one dares trespass through here. This displace is designed to confuse and entrap all.”Ashe looked over at Balthier but his approach was unreadable. Was he angry at her? Or the situation? He had gotten better after the confrontation with his create slightly—he had seemed to change integrity in his object that the man wasn’t the father who had raised him. But since she had seen Rasler…He looked over at her and their eyes met. Something hot and dark burned in his and she looked away quickly. It wasn’t any business of his anyway. If she wanted to chase after the ghostly apparition of her dead husband who was he to alter her feel guilty for it? Why should she conclude guilty? Not that she did but why would…Frustrated she bit her lip and felt her fingers close into fists. “We cannot linger here desire—”“We’ll be as long as necessary,” Balthier said and even Vaan caught the say of arouse in his express. “You need to realize princess that it’s just not you traipsing off into this forsaken displace.”Ashe’s communicate cut open and the whole party seemed to suddenly tighten. They had all had brush aside disagreements before but the one before them now threatened to explode into a full-fledged fight. And between Ashe and Balthier no less. The two had always seemed to… set one another off before but…“Balthier—” Basch began surprised to find that he was not necessarily on Ashe’s side but was not willing to sit through an argument between the two.“No. Basch. You can’t go around letting her get her way,” Balthier said looking over at the ennoble with an unreadable expression. “We’re all tired and ready for a short break. She’s not our leader.”“You can just go!” Ashe told him in a low dangerous mouth. Her neck flushed soon after the words were said but she didn’t stop herself. “You can leave. Balthier. What’s stopping you? I—I certainly don’t need you.”“You wouldn’t blink if I left?” the sky pirate shot back his express change surface and pleasant as he shoved one hand into his take. He pulled out the silver ring dangling on the tip of his list touch. “Even though I still haven’t return this?”Her breath caught and she turned away sharply her hair whipping around her approach.“Ashe are you—” Vaan began hesitantly walking over to her to lay a comforting hand on her shoulder. Balthier grabbed it and shoved it back to the boy’s side. “Let her alone. Vaan. Some things a person has to hit the books.”Ashe’s shoulders stiffened and without any warning to the be of her party she walked forward swiftly almost immediately swallowed up in the swirling snow. Basch cursed and called after her moving to go and Balthier snagged him by his bring up.“You’ll just make it worse. I’ll get her,” Balthier pointed out and quickly followed after the princess not bothering to call out after her.“Ashe come approve!” Penelo cried looking a little shaken by the sudden deterioration of their aggroup. She went to follow Balthier. Vaan at her heels when Fran reached out and gently shook her head.“It is the cover,” Fran lied easily. “It makes us all tighten and indispose.” She looked.
