Re: Dash and Stella in Marseilles
Dash grabs at his uniform cap, as the carriage lurches once again, while the cabby tries to regain control of his horse.
"I'd agree with you, Mate, except we're still moving!" Dash says to Bellgrove, "O'course, staying in here might not be the safest route, moving or not."
Dash turns a chary glare towards Connor, then says "Right. When in doubt, act." as if he's just convinced himself of something.
Turning to Bellgrove, he says "You. Belly-something, yes? You keep an eye on this other cab, in case its occupants try something."
Dash then returns his gaze to Connor, "Okay, big man, time to show of your cat-like reflexes. You jump out that side..." Dash points to the opposite side of their cab from the side the other cab had struck, "...and then I shall toss Miss Mulberry out to you. Belly, here, and I will then follow, after."
Dashs gaze turned into a glare, "And I swear, sir, if you ever hope to smooth things between us, you will take every measure to prevent any injury to the lady. Now, out you go, and give us a call when you're ready to catch Miss Mulberry."
Almost as a second thought, Dash turns to Stella, "If that's alright with you, Miss Mulberry? I really do think we should dismount the carriage, at least until Ettienne has it back under control."
