 Annie blinked a few times, and turned her gaze to a very interesting looking tree below the cliffs. It wasn’t that she didn’t appreciate the complement, because she did. It was the fact that it was coming from someone, who for all intents and purposes, was a stranger. It took a full twenty seconds before she realised that Oliver was waiting for her response. She fumbled over the first few words..

 “T-Thanks…talking in public is often difficult, especially for students..” She said, a smile passing over her face, and she removed her hairband, allowing the tufts of hair that identified her as a faunus to stand up. She put her hairband behind her tufts, and looked at Oliver.

 Annie sighed “Please don’t take this the wrong way or anything, but...why did you ask me to come here? It seems to be fairly out of the way and…” Annie paused “..and I’m rambling again..sorry.” Annie turned her gaze away from Oliver.

 Annie had made herself swear not to touch certain topics, and inwardly hoped that Oliver wouldn’t ask questions about them.

'' But what if he does? '' The small, ever present voice in the back of her asked.

 Annie honestly didn’t know.

 And that was something she didn’t like.

 Not one bit.





She turned her gaze to Oliver, and smiled again.
