You needn't worry about me.

[rockofages]

Good. [They were moving fairly quickly towards the buildings. When Loki heard the sounds of movement he froze, raising his hand.]

[songsandstories]

[She could swiftly move through the streets, not far behind him. She was quiet and when he stopped, she did. She was quiet. He spotted something, and she looked around.]

[rockofages]

[Loki slipped knives from his belt, head cocked as he listened. He didn't hear voices and the movements sounded clumsy, weak. He huffed.]

The dead come. [He turned to Sansa and nodded, pointing to a quiet street to their left.]

[songsandstories]

[She gave a soft nod before waiting to move.] How many?

[rockofages]

Too many. Move. [With out wiating for her he turned and headed for the empty street, keeping note of where the taller buildings were. THey needed something strong and high.]

[songsandstories]

[She stays at his side, careful of their surroundings. He didn't have to worry about things as they walked, but she had to skirt around them.]

[rockofages]

[When they were afr enough away that he felt safe, he turned them towards a small tower of brick and steel.]

[songsandstories]

[She watched him look on.] These buildings, they'll keep us safe?

[rockofages]

If we are fortunate. [He heads towards them, fast and quiet.] And clever.

[songsandstories]

You're doubting? [She looks up with a raise of her brow.]

[rockofages]

Which?

I doubt neither in myself. [He approaches the doors, locked and barred but... There were other ways, he would find them.]

[songsandstories]

Then you doubt in me. [Her face hardens.] I do not need you to protect me. You were the one who suggested it.

[rockofages]

You're very good at puttings words in the mouths of others. [He turns to tower over her, face a mask harder and colder than hers.]

I warn you. Do not do it to me.

[songsandstories]

[She stepped back. She was used to the cruelty of men already, and she didn't want it here.] Then speak the problem.

[rockofages]

Access inside with out comprimising the barriers. [He turned from her and stalked around the side of the building. perhaps this way.]

[songsandstories]

If you can help me access one of the windows, maybe I can slip in and let you in. [Otherwise the doors seemed off limits.]

[rockofages]

Not necessary. [H pointed to a ladder, higher than perhaps she or others could reach but... Most were not him.]

I will help you up.

[songsandstories]

[She nods before moving to stand under it. He'll need to boost her up.] Can you reach it once I'm up then?

[rockofages]

Of course. [He makes a fist with one hand, the other bracing his wrist. He leans down.]

When I say, leap upwards. Do not fall.

[songsandstories]

[Both hands went to his biceps to steady herself before she looked up to gauge the ladder.]

Tell me when.

[rockofages]

[He nods.] Put your foot on my hands. [He glanced, calculating distance.]

[songsandstories]

[She steadied herself on him before placing her foot on his hands.]

[rockofages]

[He steadied himself before hoisting her up.] Now!

[songsandstories]

[Her hands let go of him before she's lifted into the air. With her head up, she reaches onto the ladder and manages to climb up enough to steady herself. Holding on she looks back down.]

Can you reach it?
