“that was /reckless/. you’re lucky that you didn’t get hurt,” inej huffed, her arms crossing as she let out a small scoff. “just- be more careful.” she added, shaking her head. “i think we’d all prefer if you weren’t out of commission.”

“Don’t give me that. You know why I did it, darling. Plus what’s a little more damage to my leg, I’d rather that than you being hurt.” He replied as he finally looked up at her.

“I don’t /do/ reckless, I was simply taking a calculated risk to not jeopardise the mission, whilst protecting someone I…care about. If it meant I was out of action for a bit? Well it’s more preferable than someone getting injured unnecessarily.” He replied, knowing that she had a point but he’d made the decision to protect Inej from being hurt. @crowswraith
