[b]Aleck ~ currently taking aim at an attacker[/b]

Aleck laughed, he laughed so hard he lost focus. He laughed so hard that at some point he wasn't making any noise and was just clapping his chest because he couldn't clap both hands together to make that retarded seal laugh. Since he was crouching in his cover he fell over backwards and had to rollover and get on all fours to stand up again which he did so slowly.

"I like you," he said to the girl with a big grin as he tried to regain his seriousness, after all they were still in real life and death potential danger. Her action had been so random that it had completely overwhelmed his rationality, normal people would have tried to get rid of the evidence in some form or fashion or maybe even hide it and never give it back, but the girl had been honest with Aleck. He normally would have acted like it had been a betrayal because that is what it was, the girl HAD in fact been trying to leave him and take some of his things. Was he that untrustworthy? She must have noticed that moment back then when his senses had clouded. He decided to forgive the girl, her bold honesty was just too much. "Here take the things and don't worry about it."

That there had been a bonding moment for Aleck, normally he'd be cautious with people even if they had earned a little bit of his trust but this girl since the beginning had lowered his guard and had even managed to surprise him twice. He decided that she was someone worth protecting and saving in this world.
