Joy! Mark's eyes re-focused themselves when someone tripped over him and he got to his feet with a hopeful look in his hazel eyes to see who would be his next best friend and saw a man there. The man seemed to be in his own little world too or else he probably wouldn't have tripped over him and Mark wondered if he would be the different one that he had been searching for all these years. Fingers brushed stray locks of dark hair away from his face and gave the other a happy smile to come closer to the young man who stood there in the road with a spear in his hand. His attention to detail made it so that he didn't pass over the spear as though it were nothing, no instead he gazed at the weapon as he looked over every part of it or at least everything that he could see from where he currently was standing.<br/><br/>It was a nice piece of metal - for Mark made the mistake others had made since the spear looked for all purposes as though it were made of metal not carbon - and he wondered where the man had picked it up from and what he intended to use it for.<em>"Hi! Will you be my new best friend?"</em>Mark asked as he gazed up at the other man, getting in his personal space because he didn't know any better and waited for the other to respond. He didn't look as though he would be the type to throw him away from him and Mark hoped he could stay with him for a long time before he had to end up leaving. The young man tilted his head to the side when the stranger spoke and he frowned.<em>"What wasn't?"</em>He asked, not getting what the man meant by saying it wasn't very smart and looked up at him, his face open and seemingly rather innocent.<br/><br/>Many did not consider him innocent due to his dependency and his tendency to cling to others but he really was! Mark had decided to cling to this man from now on whether he liked it or not. Until he ended up trying to kill him of course for that was what they all ended up doing. However, he hoped that this time he had found someone who wouldn't be like that.<em>"That's a nice spear you've got there. Where did you get it?"</em>Mark said curiously as he peered over at the spear that was still in the other's hand as though he wanted to hold it for a moment, the only question was would the other man let him or would he try to push him away?
