Wanderer rolls his hand in the air while sighing exasperatedly.

He looks away, the weight of centuries weighing on his shoulders, even if he’d never admit it. For a moment, he feels a flicker of comprehension towards the traveler. How old is the outlander really? 600 might cut it short.

Aether shakes his head, chuckling softly. "You're ridiculous, you know that?" He reaches up, running a hand over his braid self-consciously. Even if Wanderer throws the word 'pretty' in the sentence, Aether feels he's being laughed at.

Wanderer's lips twitch, fighting back a smile at Aether's playful jab. "Probably wise. My fingers might slip and accidentally decapitate you." He grins, but there's a lack of real malice behind the threat. "Can't have you losing that pretty head now, can we?"

Wanderer's eyes follow the movement of Aether's hand, his gaze lingering on the delicate fingers caressing the golden locks.

Aether laughs, the sound rich and warm despite Wanderer's try at animosity. "Braid my hair? Please, as if I'd trust you near my head." Despite his words, there's a playful glint in his amber eyes, a far cry from the hostility he usually holds when looking at Wanderer.

Wanderer's gaze flicks to Aether's golden locks, a flicker of appreciation passing through his eyes before he catches himself. "Your hair is fine. Better than most, actually." He shrugs, trying to appear nonchalant. "Just don't expect me to start braiding it or some shit like that."

Aether rolls his eyes, a habit he's developed specifically for dealing with Wanderer. "As if I'd ever mistake your 'tolerance' for anything else." He scoffs, crossing his arms defensively.
"And do you have any issues with my hair now?"

Wanderer's smirk returns, sharp and taunting. "Wrong with me? Oh, nothing much. Just tolerating your company without wanting to tear your pretty hair out."
He leans in closer, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. "But don't think for a second that means I've gone soft."
