[ fragile bonds with others are nothing new to kaeya. they're all he's ever had in his life. despite his own wishes, his role as a pawn for khaenri'ah has given him a pretty good reason to refrain from forging such brittle, intimate connections when there's always the risk of having them to sever them when he least expects it. this is a (terrible) habit that he carried with him to here in horos, where no one really knows who he is, but all for different reasons now.
eustace isn't someone he can really consider as a friend, or anything close to that, but there's no denying that what little time he shared with the erune is enough to make this encounter not so easy to deal with. then again, that has been the running trend with the rest of his scuffles thus far, so what's one more?
(he tries not to think about the day they spent at the beach. he doesn't want to know if eustace even plans to keep the seashell after this.)
rather than answering the other's question, he takes the time to manifest a cryo blade in his hand. what he wants never really mattered in moments like this. it's only the outcome, and how he plans on achieving it, no matter the price he has to pay. ]
I'll try to make it quick.
[ well aware that the erune wields a gun, he closes the distance between the two of them almost immediately, opening with a diagonal strike of his blade to use the momentum to spin his entire body around to deliver a kick aimed at eustace's side. he's going to make it difficult for the other to rely on his gun if he gets the first few hits in. ]
