With a destination agreed on, Asha smile. Of course he had no intention of escorting her only part way home, but he could press the matter once they reached a place that actually had light. “Give me a moment to gather my camera, then, and we can be on our way.” He certainly wasn’t going to allow anyone trip over the carcass of his camera and its tripod. Gingerly he leaned down, allowing his fingers to graze the ground until he could feel one of the wood legs of the camera. “Watch out. I’m going to lift it up, not sure where exactly you are.” He warned her. Asha pulled it up with an ‘umph’, awkwardly jamming legs into his ribs and chest until the ungainly weight was manageable again. “There we go. Shall we?” He gestured forward, remembering half a moment late that she couldn’t see it.

He chuckled at her joke. “No we haven’t.” He easily agreed as they started forward. “I can certainly hope. Or at least hope our eyes adjust.” Really at least at night the darkness did tend to fade enough to see outlines, this had not yet done so. “Will talking be enough to keep you from getting lost?” Asha asked, feeling his cheeks turn pink at the suggestion he bit back. But it was dark, who would see them holding hands?
