He blushed. It wasn't hard to see either. He had that generally light Northern complexion, and his peachy face was un-marred by little more that a few faded scars here and there. Rosy hues were then readily visible, and so he found himself trying to retreat into himself to avoid being seen. He couldn't believe he just called her Tenlie. How could he have forgotten in the span of only moments that she asked to be called Ten in the first place, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry...Ten it is then...must have been a slip of the tongue..." He smiled to hide his inner musings, or I'm just a big fat dumb burdenbeast of a man.
"No, no nick names..." Doppelganger popped up out off his shirt to argue that, NO! Rahrah! Rahname lovemine yes! Loud the little mandyr tried to be, but he was ever so friendly about it, with two big blue eyes looking at the girl. She was nice! They could be friends if Mi'rah wasn't so busy trying to hush him and hide him back away, "No, no. Don't listen to him, I don't go by that....not that I have anything against it, I just...." there were lots of -rah sounding names and it was the first part of his name that set him aside. It made him special, "nobody calls me by anything that I know of..."
But he was quickly caught off guard. A hero? Really? Really!? He was speechless. He had never been called a hero before and really didn't know what to make of it. His lower jaw quivered as he tried to put together words. He couldn't...he shouldn't let her think he was of all people was a hero. He had been useless, he got hurt, he wasn't even in charge, he has all kinds of things that were definitely not heroic....but, and this was a BIG but....he felt good being called one, and he felt like he deserved a kind word from time to time and could only blush some more in response. He would not comment as to his status as some kind of life saver, but he would return the compliment, "Oh well....then you are my hero. You saved me from that stall. If it wasn't for you I would have just writhed on the ground and I - I would have been beaten with my own stick..."
"Oh, don't worry about it Tenl..." he almost messed up again but corrected himself as qucikled as his tangled tongue could, "T-t-ten. I can come back another day, in fact I am sure I will be back again. It is really no bother to me..." He did promise her this egg though, and she would get it if it was the last thing he did. He would hate to break a promise.
