[Tiara's used to traveling alone. She's also used to people thinking that she's pretty easy pickings because of it.
She's come to these plains because she heard there was a Fury out here--and she's here for that, give her the Treasure, that's all she wants. Of course, it can't be that easy; monsters aside, there always seem to be...ruffians. Thugs.
She stares at the thug holding a knife out in a vaguely threatening fashion at her, hand pressed to her chest.
She's not...really scared, honestly; she's pretty sure she can handle this trash. Hence the monotone:]
Oh, my.
[heaven forbid.]
A thug.
[You can come be her prince(ss) in shining armor now, don't worry.]
[Consider it the duty of a prince(ss) knight in shining armor to come to the rescue of a lovely girl being held at knifepoint - even if this aforementioned lovely girl doesn't seem to be that distressed about it? Well, that's nice. Screaming is always rather terrible, isn't it?
Hence why Arashi's going to step forward now, sword at his hip as he gives this brute a smile.]
Ahh? What's the meaning of all —
[Out of the corner of his eye, he catches something.
One of Tiara's ribbons is astray? He frowns, before reaching out to adjust it so that it's perched neatly and cleanly on her head. Then the smile comes back.]
There. ♡ Much better. A lovely girl must always look her best, you know? Even if the company is boorish and undeserving.
Ah there there, dear, when one examines the scenery, it's always the flowers that come before the weeds, right?
[cute girls before disgusting men!! that should be the hierarchy of the world and Arashi winks to add some flare to this point (why)
though of course that does mean that the brute behind them is getting rather agitated indeed, bumbling something offended and making a noise of complaint because this is not only embarrassing but degrading??
which Arashi does consider all in a day's work, though as the knife gets raised again, he'll also draw his own sword and lightly cross it against the knife]
[Why would she need to pull out her spear? Her hair could get tangled in it? No, Arashi doesn't plan on letting that tragedy transpire here.
Rather he's humming softly, a melodic little note, followed by a sigh.]
Well if he can't tell when he's outmatched, then it's not my fault, right? [A glance back over to Tiara coupled with another smile.] Stand back, milady, I'd rather not even a speck of dirt from this brute fall on you.
[She's not going to argue that??? He can do whatever he wants. If he wants to be all dashing and protect her, that only helps her, so... Works for her!
She takes a dainty step back.
There.]
I shall be counting on you to quickly deal with this eyesore, then.
There's a brute on the ground! Mostly through a combination of memorizing pressure points and lacking interest in drawing blood or sweating, Arashi ended the fight. Now he's sheathing his sword as he fixes his gloves and flicks his hair into place.]
at least Arashi doesn't mind - it just seemed like a knightly thing to do?? As for the question, he's about to say "Oh, nothing, don't worry your lovely head over it. I was just passing by"
until he remembers
yeah he's passing by because he's - ]
Ah, well... You'll have to keep this a secret between you and I, miss, but I might've spaced out and taken a misstep somewhere? Absolutely dreadful, I'm soooo embarrassed!
[A lot of things are happening here, but she's not really basking???
But.
Oh!! Maybe she can kill two birds with one stone here? She can have a(n eyecandy) protector and also send him on his way when she's done with her task?]
Well, I may be able to assist you in that matter, sir. The problem is... [A sigh, and she presses her hand to her cheek.] I am searching for something here, you see. Once I have found it, I would most gladly lead you out of this place.
A search? [Despite the embarrassment he was apparently feeling earlier, now he just slides right back into being amused.] You have so much on your plate today, tulip.
Well, it'd be rude of me to leave you all on your own again now that I know you need help too, right? It's okay, we can figure out these little detours together.
[Coupled with a little wink and an offer of his arm.]

[can you focus]

And fixing her hair ribbons?
She pauses, blinking, legitimately bemused.]
I--pardon me...?
[??? CAN YOU FOCUS]
Sir, perhaps you should focus on the company before you first--

Now does the weed still have business with us?
no subject
Or.
Well.
Mostly Arashi at this point since he's the one with the knife?? Tiara's content to just stand there and be protected apparently!!
(She could just take out her spear and stab some people but apparently she's not doing that.)]
Perhaps the weeds should be dealt with, kind sir.
[pls take care of this for her.]

There you go, princess. ♥ All done!

Oh my... quite impressive. Thank you, sir, for saving me. [unnecessarily.] Now... is there something you wish from me?

[There's a long pause as she considers that, before she takes his arm and smiles up at him brightly.]
If you insist, I shall do you a favor--I shall allow you to serve me as my knight.
[what]
I assure you, it is quite the honor.
