WoW Fic Teaser
9 years ago
Actually this is just my favorite part thus far. I wrote it quite a few months back, considering it's part of the second chapter,
but I still laugh every time I go back through to see how the story is going, or if there's anything I feel like adding.
For a bit of background and context, they are in a camp full of tents (think sort of like Mulan I guess? Or M.A.S.H.? But non-militaristic),
and each person working together in this camp has their own tent, of course.
There's also a tent where they can go eat, and one where they go to get their assignments.
In this case, they are in the tent to get their assignments.
Azraeus has only just met Halius the day before, and doesn't really like him.
This is supposed to take place, post-stealing the Divine Bell via Dalaran.
So, it should be pretty obvious why he doesn't like him immediately. ;3 Anywho, on with the teaser!
“So… why are we the last two here in this tent then?” he watched Rivanna attempt not to laugh again, and then looked to his right as he saw Halius move to scratch his chin nonchalantly… knowingly.
“Surely it’s obvious why?” Rivanna supplied, leaning on a palm and giving Azraeus another pointed look.
“No…”
Azraeus bristled as he heard Halius snort in amusement, directing a frustrated look at the Blood Elf from the corner of his eye. He swore he saw him grin slightly in response, before crossing his arms and lowering his head patiently.
Rivanna had been right, this Blood Elf was extremely quiet. He didn’t run his mouth nearly enough.
“Well, I did say you’d likely be paired with someone…”
“... What.”
“Oh, Azraeus, come now. Surely you can put the differences between you aside for a while, and work together to fix something.”
“But… he’s a…” Azraeus floundered for words. What was more poignant? The fact that Halius was a Blood Elf or a Sunreaver? Or both? “... unsavory individual.”
“You’re no bundle of sunshine yourself.” Halius quipped, casting his gaze up to the roof of the tent and sighing.
“Boys.” Rivanna said quietly, sure of where this was going to go.
“I don’t know what you are talking about. I’m perfectly decent.”
“Well, you did kick dirt on me.”
“That was an accident…”
“And you’ve insulted me twice now.”
“Well I --”
“BOYS!”
Halius and Azraeus both jumped, ceasing their quibbling and giving Rivanna their full attention. She was laughing, though the look on her face was somewhat stern.
