Sam x Jess
“Why can’t you just-” Sam cut himself off, closing his eyes as he took in a deep breath, don’t say something you’ll regret.
“Whoa, calm down, Texas.” Jess unfolded her arms and took a step toward the giant, “It was just a salt and burn, nothing I couldn’t handle.”
“That’s not the point.” The giant let her guide him down to the couch, “You shouldn’t be hunting alone.”
“Pfft, what?” Jess gave him an incredulous look, “So you get to go out on hunts alone, and I can’t go out at all?” At the giants’ semi-nod, she raised an eyebrow at him, “You better be joking.”
“Well… it’s not…. I mean, you’re not, y’know….” he let his voice trail off, casting his gaze down, how can I make you understand?
“Not what, Sam? A guy?” She scoffed, “Good luck making that argument to Ellen. Or Jody.”
He was shaking his head, getting up off the couch, “No, that’s not… they’re different -”
“So… what?” Jess followed him up, re-crossing her arms over her chest, “I can’t hunt because I don’t have anyone close to me who’s been killed by a monster?”
