Well, not at first - he holds onto th'tree and this time he does lock eyes with her, like he's darin' her t'say something but that's maybe a few seconds and then yeah, he figures, it's easier t'just sit down. It ain't graceful, more a controlled fall, but he's sittin' upright against dead dry bark by th'end of it and that's alright with him.
He studies her, for a moment, and there's a trace of somethin' in his eyes like he's relaxin', like he's rememberin' what this place is and Mizz Barlow, how she ain't somethin' or someone he's gotta be runnin' from. It's been a while, back in his world. Been a good long while.
His voice is softer, when it comes.
"Oughta get yourself checked out, anyway," he mutters, restin' his head in his hands. It don't sound like an order though, not this time. "Or go somewhere y'can sleep ain't out in th'rain and th'cold."
