Prompt: Woods
Snares reset, and two rabbits and an unidentifiable lizard in hand, Macbeth turned to leave the woods only to find Erza standing nearby. Startled, and embarrassed at failing to notice her approach (despite her not wearing her armor), he hissed at her, "Don't ever sneak up on dark mages if you value your life."
His words seemed to startle her as much as she had him, and color crept into her cheeks. "I'm sorry," she apologized hastily, and at seeing his furious expression remain, added in explanation, "I was just coming to check the snares, but… I see you've already taken care of it."
That seemed rather tenuous to Macbeth, given that she had drawn up the duties roster for all of them in the first place, but he was so angry at both himself and at her, that he didn't think to challenge the statement until much later – at which point, the opportunity to do so had long since passed.
