There was something rather...off-putting about the way the miqo'te was frowning. It had been a long time since Hal had sat at anyone's knee as errant pupil, but, er, yeah, that was the right sort of look.
She frowned back. With some extra fierceness, not that it would do much good with snot hanging out of her nose and a face that looked like she'd stumbled into a hornet's nest, but there was something to be said for trying. At least, that's what her brother had always told her. Usually while laughing at her.
Besides, the miqo'te appeared to be stark-raving-nutters, and that meant Hal didn't have to take her sass.
"I'm fine," she repeated, furtively trying to snort back some of the snot that continued to leak out. "No thank-you."
Her voice didn't even sound like her voice anymore, and she was having a difficult time seeing. Her eye that remained open was all blurry. She would have liked to make a composed and suave exit, but she was having a hard time determining the best way to leave without walking smack into a tree.
