"Keep your voice down!" Kel hissed, looking around frantically, even though she'd brought them to the middle of the Royal Forest. "And stop pulling your hair like that, you'll go bald."
"Bald! Bald? Well, it seems bald isn't a problem for you is it? What in Minthros' name have you done?" Neal turned kicked at a nearby tree stump. "See!" Whirling back around to face Kel, he stabbed his finger at her face. "I told you all that jousting with the Giantkiller would damage your brain! But would you listen? Nooo, I'm just silly Neal, no one has to listen to Nealan." He threw his hands up in the air and stalked around the clearing. "But I suppose I'm not your old training master, so why would you listen to me? And I emphasise the old part."
"Just because he is older, does not mean he is old." Kel scowled at her friend. "And will you calm down? It's not that bad. I am not insane! " She crossed her arms in an attempt to resist smacking him upside the head. "In fact, you're the one acting crazy right now."
"Not that bad? I'm acting crazy? How can you say that? How am I supposed to react?" Neal cut her off. "You slept with the Stump!"
