Eclipse held Tobias' gaze unmoving for a long moment, aware of his hand resting on the handle of his weapon. For the first time since arriving in the Scorpion Den, she wasn't worried about what would happen if he tried to fire at her. In the time it would take him to draw the weapon, she might have just enough time to summon and harden her warping into a shield, and in the seconds that would follow, it would be over very fast. She missed this feeling. The feeling of being dangerous. Being in control, however uncertain the odds looked from an outside perspective. Being the stronger species.
But she didn't exactly want to kill the human. He had given her a small pocket of freedom in this horrid place, and she knew Sol would never forgive her. She might injure him if the situation turned to that, though he'd live. But they had a mission to complete, the rebellion was counting on dragons and humans working together to get everyone out. Specifically Eclipse and Tobias. He had valuable resources that would contribute to the escape, and she possessed important skills and abilities both as a Lunarwing and as an assassin. If they couldn't learn to work together without the threat and restrictions of the Den's functions, the mission could be compromised.
Eclipse flicked her tail at him dismissively and packed the rest of the vials into the last box, folding the hard lid over the top and ignoring Tobias pointedly.
"Is this all of it Rose?"
Like, when I'm usually not on. *Nods contentedly*
