"Take....." K'nahli responded almost immediately, though her sentence quickly trailed off as she withheld herself from speaking any further, her eyes revealing all but her complete disbelief with the lancer's suggestive words. Surely he wasn't serious? It was true that K'rahto had always struck her as the arrogant type of person, but surely he was not so reckless, so foolish as to engage such large and alien giants without the rest of the party there to support them?
Regardless of how weak this game could doubtfully, yet still potentially prove to be, there was at least one, wretched beast lurking not very far away, out in the barren plains of Thanalan that would surely tear him - and maybe even her by association - asunder should they so boldly move to act on their own.
K'nahli blinked hard as she studied the male's body language. Everything about him suggested that there was no mindless jest behind his words,but mayhap he was only seeking K'nahli's approval - any voice at all to egg him and be the tipping point that would push him on to commit along to his eager intent.
"K'rahto, wait... you can't be..." K'nahli suddenly spoke again as she attempted to reason with the male and steal him away from this seemingly, sudden over-excitement which he was experiencing. The anxiety that had poisoned the tone of her voice moments ago had subsided for now as this unforeseen matter took precedence and distracted both her and surely, she believed, K'rahto too, from the memories of their last intimate encounter out on the dunes days previous.
Instead, however, it was replaced with a look of complete shock, a gasp accompanying her dramatic change in expression as she helplessly watched the tia quickly press on down the hill in ill-heed of her hesitation, with a pace that's stealth was equally as impressive as it's unrestrained speed.
K'nahli's eyes quickly grew large with sheer disbelief as the suddenness of the situation took her completely off-guard.
"Wait!" she quickly called after him despairingly, her voice coming a little too loudly in the process - though luckily not compromising their presence.
K'nahli grimaced with apprehension as she watched the silhouette of the male flee far and beyond the reluctant hand that reached out toward him, before she too, after a few seconds of hesitation that left her glued to the spot, quickly brought herself back to her feet and decisively raced after K'rahto.
Instinctively reaching back across her shoulder as she continued to nimbly hop and scurry her way downhill, the girl proceeded to remove her bow that had been resting across her body until now, bringing it now before her in readiment as she tried her best to quickly close the distance between her and that suicidal idiot.
