"Why am I not surprised to find you here?" There's humor in his tone as he approaches, a brow raising whilst he took in the other and his attire. "Am I right in assuming that Tataru has you doing favors for her, yet again?" The woman sure did love putting their dear friend to WORK didn't she?

Thancred folded his arms across his chest, weight shifting from one leg to the other. With the way in which he PRESSED his lips tightly together, it was easy to tell the Hyur was close to laughing, but held together determinedly.

"What is it that she has you making this time?" He inquired, having not really planned in making small talk with others during his visit to Sharlayan, but growing CURIOUS all the same.

"Why am I not surprised to find you with your nose stuck between a book's pages?" The words were spoken in a TEASING manner, affectionately so, and through a widening grin to boot. Thancred's arms came to fall from their once folded position prior, leg kicking against the door frame of which he had been leaning against so that he could stand upright. "I should count myself lucky that you're so predictable. It makes matters easier for me."

To LOCATE the Elezen, specifically.

"Find anything of interest? You seemed thoroughly enraptured by its contents."

'No wonder the people avoid coming here.'

Thancred couldn't help the amused huff that escaped him at her words, a hand coming to rest atop her shoulder as they traversed the empty expanse beyond the wall. No, he didn't imagine people wanted to venture beyond the looming frozen tidal wave of pure light, where nothing but WHITE met the gaze as far as the eye could see. Still, after the discovery of Eden, Ryne truly felt there was a chance to heal the Empty and bring LIFE back to the land.

Guiding her so as to keep in step with himself, the Hyur glanced up at the sky, noting how low the sun was beginning get. She was right, it would be time to set up camp so as to wind down comfortably and not trip--

Ah... well, perhaps his thoughts brought this little mishap to fruition?

"Oh dear-- Here, arms around my neck. Quick, now." He ushered the girl SWIFTLY into his arms, lifting her effortlessly so as to not irritate her ankle any further. "Are you alright?" There came that familiar expression of concern, eyes searching her visage first before trailing over to the twisted appendage. With the dying light, it was hard to ascertain the extent of the damage done.

A FIRE-- He would need to build a fire first and get her seated comfortably.

"Rest here, for a moment. I'll make us a fire and properly assess the damage shortly. Does it hurt...?" Came the inquire as he set her around the remnants of their prior night's camp... though, not before readjusting his coat around her shoulders to ensure she was properly covered and SUFFICIENTLY warmed in the meantime.

The FIRST victim for their fire would be that offending piece of wood to have tripped her in the first place.
