"Well... I don't know. I was just hoping that maybe we would see each other again. You know, get to know each other?" He stated awkwardly, blushing. He turned his head away to look down the empty street, at the stores, at the posters. "But maybe that isn't an option available to us." He added. Turning from her, he walked back in the direction he had come, back-tracking.
Moon hissed in amusement as Leam found his way back to the same spot he had left. "Daft, that's what you are, daft." He grumbled.
Leam stooped down to pick up Moon. "Apoligize, Moon." He snapped at him.
Moon cringed, bristling. He fluffed his fur. "Sorry, Leam." He whispered.

Jess looked at him and tilted his head, watching him walk away, then back again? She frowned slightly, then her eyes danced with slight amusement and a soft laugh played across her lips. "You know Leam," She said, "I am an outcast myself. I live by my own rules." She stretched slightly, the sun beginning to bother her somewhat, "I can take any option I want." She smiled and started walking in the direction that Leam had headed, ruffling his hair teasingly as she passed.

Leam nodded. "I live by mine, with one limit. I can't be caught, and neither can Moon." He said, "Moon is the runt of his family, most likely his mother abandoned him to fend on his own." He added, a slight half-moon of a smile on his face.
Moon sighed, his fur bristling slightly. His silver eyes glowed.

Jess giggled, putting Moon softly between the ears with her long fingers. "He sure is a cutey," She said, giving the Badger a wink and then pulling away and doing a little skip. "Do you think we could stay near or in the shade?" She asked, covering her eyes with a hand to block the light.

"In, but either is fine." Leam said quietly, stepping sideways to get away from the misting fountain. He watched the sky with curious eyes. It felt so bleak there, with the never changing skys, the shadows staying in one place but to follow you. Moon purred. "Thank you." He said in his whispery voice. "Moon thanks you." Leam translated.

Jess giggled happily, doing a twirl into the shadows. She let out a sigh of relief, the shade re-energizing her. "Thats better," She smiled, her wide eyes relaxing slightly, "And your welcome Moon." She continued walking, then looked at Leam with her kind eyes. "So," She said, "Why /are/ you wanted?"

"I'd prefer not to talk about that." He murmered, looking at his feet. He didn't dare look up to catch her eyes, for fear that he would never be able to look away. She does have lovely eyes... he thought to himself.

Jess frown and patted him on the shoulder gently. "I respect that," She said, then broke away and twirled around again. "I do love this wonderful weather!" She brought her hands to her chest and entwined them, breathing in the fresh air happily.

"Thank you. The weather? Lovely?" He asked with a soft sigh, following her, Moon on his shoulder.
Moon basked in the sunlight, still on his shoulder.

Jess nodded and eyed Leam curiously, her feet light as she walked, hardly seeming like she touched the ground at all. "Do you live anywhere?" She asked, wondering if he had a home or if he just wandered aimlessly.

"Not really, I used to live in an abandoned building, but then they came after me, tried to catch me." He said in one breath, walking slowly along the cobblestones, his feet heavy from new, stolen shoes.
Moon snored, curled up inside his backpack.

"Hmm..." Jess said, her pace calming down slightly as her emotions shifted. Her fingers tapped on the side of her leg, playing a beat that she didnt even know. "I dont live anywhere either," She said with a shrug and a smile.

Leam let his hands slide into his pockets. Surely Jess wouldn't try to stop him from going back....
Leam turned in the other direction and broke into a sprint, waving over his shoulder. "We'll meet again." He called, heading for the building on the far side of town. He paused for a moment to turn back once more to wave before rounding the corner, his shoes thudding on the concrete.
Moon hissed. He hated being jostled.

Jess opened her mouth to reply, but it closed as he sprinted away. "Alright," She said, watching him go awkwardly before turning and continuing to walk silently down the street, her arms at her sides and her dark hair blowing around. She hummed a merry tune, though she was slightly confused by Leams suddan departure. She didnt give it a second thought though, just walked to a desitination that she wasnt sure of.

As Leam rounded a second corner, he could see the officials, hanging around and watching the streets. He stopped to watch for a moment, then scrambled to get out of the way as one of them tried to tackle him. Moon, all signs of happiness gone, bolted for a nearby building, the one Leam had stayed in. Leam ignored Moon, swinging a stick at the closest official. His arms rang with shock waves as it connected with its ear.
