Running a hand over his face, Weston sighed hoarsely and looked over to Yuri. She was definitely an odd one that was for sure, though strangely he couldnâ€™t really place a finger on what bugged him about her, but maybe he could get use to it. Maybeâ€¦. Part of him wanted to laugh for thinking like this. There was a time where he never really cared about people and didnâ€™t look at them the same way he does today. Hell he has only been here for barely a few hours; maybe he should stop being such a loner and try to get back to his old self. Unfortunately that was easier said than done with all heâ€™s seen and been through the past several years. Who could blame him for being skeptical, vigilant, always examining and trying to get a good read on someone, get a feel for who they were, since so many have betrayed him.<br/><br/>â€œWell, weâ€™ve already established that rest will do us good, but honestly itâ€™s a little hard to fall asleep when someone keeps talking to you,â€ he answered her honestly, looking away from her after he spoke. Perhaps it was a bit too blunt even for him and came off a bit rude but he really was getting tired and he still was not sure about all this. Perhaps she thought he didnâ€™t want her around, which was certainly not the case at all even if he was still a bit unsure. He didnâ€™t want to just push her away even if a few old habits wanted him to do just that. Maybe he was just a little frustrated is allâ€¦ memories of what happened today and the past few weeks were flashing through his mind; they certainly were not pretty. Seeing those disgusting Hell Mutants disembowel people year after year, he probably should be frustrated and angry, fueled by revenge.<br/><br/>Instead he wasnâ€™t at all, and instead he just felt like it was a part of survival, as it was.<br/><br/>Again, Weston was definitely more than grateful for what the people have done for him here. The hospitality heâ€™s received since arriving here has been more than appreciated and he even jumped in and joined the Rebels. Which was kind of silly on his part the more he thought about it, since he really should have thought it over more before he just agreed almost blindly. At least he still had some of his old habits, shadows of his former, more outgoing self, he thought to himself. When he was about ten years younger he was pretty energetic, always willing to jump into things, especially when working on a case that really got him fired up. Or if he was looking forward to something, heâ€™d be energetic until it passed. After the war started all of that energy and willingness to go adventuring as it were slowly died off and now Weston is the man he is today.<br/><br/>That has already been established though, mostly. War is a very damaging thing but if some traces remained then maybe there was hope to be found in these people. Yuri seemed to be bringing out his old self slowly and from the looks of things, and from what she said, she seemed to just be herself. It was always a good sign whenever you could be yourself around someone. Then again there were a few times where he had opened up a little and had not been so luckyâ€¦ He prayed to whatever higher power was left out there that these people did not turn out to be like the other group he had ran into two years ago. They had said they were against the Hell Mutants but then turned out to be just a group of fucked up, broken people who didnâ€™t have their shit together in spite of their leader being a pretty damn strong person. Ultimately it had lead to their demise and thankfully he didnâ€™t even get the slightest sense of that here.<br/><br/>Pulling himself away from his thoughts, Weston finally looked back to Yuri and sighed softly, â€œMy apologies, I really didnâ€™t mean it that way.â€ Though he sounded a bit distant the truth rang clear in his voice. He figured he might as well get it out there just in case. Always just in case. If he were to anger these people in any way he had a feeling it really wouldnâ€™t end well for him especially with his wounds as bad as they were. One thing he learned about this world since the war started, you want to try to stay on everyoneâ€™s good side even if they really piss you off.
