Jess flung her purple necklace, and Ryan, reacting almost on instinct, snatched it out of the sky. Letting it twine with her own grey one, she studied it, watching the way the light sparkled. "Wow, yours really is quite pretty." she commented, glancing over at Jess's hand, noting with concern the tiny bubble of blood well up before Jess smothered it with her coat. "Wait…… you're saying Rex brings you my rats!" she exclaimed, a look of mock horror on her face, "I though you said they brought stuff to prove they are loyal.……… apparently his loyalties are divided, that little traitor." but she couldn't keep her strait face any more, and burst out laughing, scrunching her face up surrounding a grin that could have stretched for miles. "Oh…… well, …" she gasped in-between trying to get her laughing under control, "He ……always ……did like …you." Finally managing to snag a breath, Ryan, for the most part, calmed down. "Well, as for the necklace," she turned her attention back to the pair of chained stones tethered by her hand. "I reckon you could wear it if you want, but if not it's up to you. Same with believing, I can't tell you to believe, although I can give you my view, which is that I don't believe in them, but don't really want to just fling them away either." So saying she had a thought, I wonder what would happen if we swapped? Although she was loath to let go of her grey stone; it made her feel like there was a hole in her stomach. "I'll look after yours if you want" she decided out loud then glanced up to note that Jess was texting someone. "Hey!" Ryan yelped, tapping Jess on the back of the head, "I thought you wanted my advice." but she was grinning, showing she wasn't angry in the slightest. Glancing over Jess's shoulder, she got a peek at the skull image Jess was sending, evicting a small gasp out of Ryan. "That your latest piece of art?" She queried, "It's awesome!"
