(OOC: I tagged everyone by accident)
"What do you want then, Klaus?"
Diana clenched her jaw as Arya fell into Klaus's hands like silly putty. She seemed to bend at his will without even realizing she was doing it. The brunette glared at the two of them, but her eyes shifted to the woods soon after. Now isn't exactly the time to be making deals and bets. We're not in high school anymore. We need to hide before the villagers spot us again. I have a feeling they're not going to give up on their witch hunt so easily. She wouldn't be able to rest if there was a strange sorceress running wild in the nearby forest, so she doubted many of the townsfolk would be able to rest in their current situation. She had been almost completely ignored by the pair, which caused her irritation to grow. Normally it wouldn't have bothered her, but she wasn't feeling all that great. She couldn't survive on her own in this condition. Worst of all, she couldn't walk away from their childish antics, so her nerves were growing pretty thin. She didn't give two shits about their squabble. Actually, she wanted them both to shut the hell up. Her head was throbbing enough without their annoying chatter.
"Who do you think you are kidding? You won't make ten feet alone, let alone be able to retrieve Jalen."
Her tone, had it been used any other time would have been overlooked, but Diana just scoffed. Coming from the train wreck who passed out in the mud and got us put on the run as fugitives. She thought just as bitterly, but kept her words to herself. They weren't constructive, so they were better off kept to herself. She wanted the group to work together in harmony, adding to the indifference and hatred would only fuel the fire. She wasn't sure why Arya had it out for her, but if the blonde disliked her, she'd accept it. There wasn't much she could do to change her mind if she was already hated. She wasn't one to linger on something she couldn't change. The brunette simply frowned a bit leaning on the crutch that the old man had given her as she waited for a decision to be made. Sometime this week, perhaps?
"Ill let you owe me, let you owe me a favor in return. And trust me when I say this love, you will and do owe me one. As a matter of fact, you all owe me one. But this is for another time."
Her eyes widened as he mentioned everyone owing him. She gritted her teeth at his arrogance, but took a deep breath. Calm, he owes us just as much as we owe him. I see the debt as cancelled out. It would have killed all of us if we didn't work together. She reasoned with herself. With a roll of her brown eyes, she was back in control of her anger... more or less.
"We shall see you two loves later. Oh and Arya."
Her eyes darted, scanning Klaus's expression in confusion as he ran his fingers through her hair. It wasn't really embarrassing compared to her fall with Jalen in the bar, but it was still enough to have her mind racing with a thousand questions. Him and Arya were betrothed, whether consentual or not.. Why was he playing around with her hair like that? Then a thought popped in her head. Is he... trying to make her jealous? Maybe that's why she doesn't like me.. but they're not interested.. If anything they'd likely rip each other apart if given the chance to be alone.. The action earned a shiver before Diana turned her head away from Klaus, just enough to remove her hair from his hand's reach. Whatever game you're playing, I'm not just a pawn. I'm a human and expect to be treated as such. Her chocolate eyes stared him down, giving him a calm warning. She wasn't angry, nor did she feel indifferent towards anyone in the group.. but she was going to claim proper, basic. respect if she had to punch it into them.
"We are not home anymore, this is no longer the place we remember. So be careful of your thoughts and actions. This would get worse here, I doubt that we only scratched the surface."
She waited for Klaus to get out of ear shot before making her way in the opposite direction. Her crutch supported her bad leg, but she was still wobbly. She didn't speak to Arya, but instead just assumed the blonde was smart enough to follow her. It was a silent trip for almost a quarter of an hour, but they finally found a suitable cave. When she found a rather generously sized rock to sit on, Diana finally addressed Arya.
"I have a confession, my name is actually Diana, not Wynter. That's just my nickname. I had to know I could trust you guys, and honestly, I'm not sure that I do. Though I know I must if we wish to survive this place." She stated it blatantly, not really as bothered by the fact anymore. It didn't seem to bother Jalen that she'd lied, and since Arya was already cross with her Diana saw no reason in worrying about the other girl's reaction.
