Belle was already on line when the brutish man cut in. Although, the book nerd hadn’t really noticed as her eyes were upon the pages held in her hands. It was only when other people on line started raising their voices that the woman brought her gaze up to view the scene.<br/><br/>Dressed in pants, a cropped tank top, a cloak, and puffed sleeves that attached to her gloves, it was clear to see the goosebumps that would raise upon her skin. In her travels, she had come across many a man like him, taking advantage of the meek to get what he wanted. At least this guy only wanted a place further up in line. So, Belle didn’t join in on the protests. Instead, she placed a comforting hand on the girl’s shoulder just in front of her, the one who was inadvertently the victim of this man’s insistence. She could feel her hesitance to say anything, and Belle could completely empathize with her.<br/><br/>When the warrior woman showed up, the bookish girl smiled. “She’ll take care of the situation.” Her voice spoke in a low and hopefully comforting tone to the mage, as well as comforting herself. Belle wanted to join the guild in hopes of finding odd jobs that didn’t involve fighting. Not that she was bad at it, but she’d rather talk herself out of situations first before resorting to violence.<br/><br/>Although, having a warrior as a friend could prove things easier.<br/><br/>Alright, if this disagreement broke into a fight, Belle would help. At the very least she could use Examino on him to better plan attacks, as well as she could make for a decent distraction. Probably even get a few stabs in herself. Yeah. The that’s how she’ll do it. Dropping her hand back to her side and putting her book away, and with a plan set in her mind, Belle watched the two intently, waiting.
