"It was a long and frankly tedious fight, but you managed to get through it in relatively one--oh for the love of, you missed one, clearly. As you now stare at the Bandit Hermit, she strangely flails her arms, pleading with you to let her go." "WAIT WAIT WAIT! WE CAN TALK ABOUT THIS RIGHT?! RIGHT?!"

"As you turn around, the Bandit Hermit starts to panic and takes a step back, tripping over one of her fallen comrades." "Wait! Please don't shoot me! I surrender!" "she pleads with you."

"The Bandit Hermit seems taken aback at your comment, but quickly gathers her composure." "I-I was just doing what my boss told me to do. But now that I see I'm no match for you..." "she trails off, hoping to appeal to your sense of mercy."

"The Bandit Hermit shakily turns around, putting her hands up in surrender." "Okay, okay. Just please don't shoot me! I'll do anything!" "she murmurs frantically, hoping for a chance to live."

"The Bandit Hermit obediently puts her hands behind her back, gritting her teeth as she does so." "Okay, what now?" "she asks quietly, hoping that you'll spare her life."

"As you put the handcuffs on her, the Bandit Hermit winces at the feeling of metal on her wrists. She doesn't say anything, but she can't help feeling like there's no way out now."

"The Bandit Hermit takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself down as she realizes you're not going to kill her...at least not yet." "Okay, okay. I'll...I'll try to be brave," "she says between breaths, still shaking a little."

"The Bandit Hermit winces as you grab her wrist, but she follows you to your camp with a mix of fear and resignation. As you arrive, she takes a look around at the makeshift shelter and the supplies you have there." "So...what do you want from me?" "she asks hesitantly."

"The Bandit Hermit shudders at the thought of being killed, and quickly shakes her head in response to your question." "No! No, of course not. I'd much rather be alive, thank you very much," "she says with a forced smile, trying to lighten the mood."

"The Bandit Hermit nods as you gesture towards the mat in front of the campfire." "Okay, okay. I'll sit," "she says, still feeling uneasy but doing her best to keep calm." She takes a seat on the mat, trying to get comfortable despite the restraints on her wrists.

"As you prepare dinner, the Bandit Hermit keeps a wary eye on you, but she doesn't say anything for a while. Eventually, however, she can't help herself." "So...what are you going to do with me?" "she asks quietly, glancing at your face."

"The Bandit Hermit's eyes widen as she sees you bare your teeth like a wolf, and she shrinks back slightly." "I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean to overstep!" "she stammers, hoping not to anger you further."

"The Bandit Hermit watches as you finish the dinner and separates two portions, wondering what you have in mind." "Umm...are you going to let me eat?" "she asks hesitantly as you finish preparing the food."

"The Bandit Hermit nods, grateful for the chance to eat. She accepts the portion of food you offer her and starts eating it, not wanting to waste any time." "Thank you," "she says quietly between bites."

"The Bandit Hermit also glances up at the moon, shivering slightly as the cold night air starts to penetrate her clothes." "It's really cold out here," "she says, trying to make conversation with you." "Do you think we could maybe get a fire going or something?"

"The Bandit Hermit looks around, noticing the lack of wood. She nods in understanding as you explain the situation." "Oh, I see. Sorry, I didn't realize," "she says, realizing that she won't be getting warm any time soon."

"The Bandit Hermit looks at you warily as you sit next to her, still partially afraid of your wolf-like demeanor." "Umm...okay..." "she says hesitantly, not sure what to expect from you."

"The Bandit Hermit looks at you incredulously as you gesture towards your fur." "Wait, what? You want me to...snuggle with you?!" "she stammers out, clearly taken aback by the suggestion."

"The Bandit Hermit considers your words, realizing that you might be her only chance at survival in the desert." "I...I guess I don't have much of a choice, do I?" "she says with a resigned sigh, leaning in towards your fur to warm herself." "Just promise me you won't kill me in my sleep or anything," "she adds, still hesitant to trust you completely."

"The Bandit Hermit flinches as you hug her, but she soon relaxes into your embrace as she starts to feel warm again." "Y-yeah, I guess that's true," "she says quietly, relaxing a bit more as she realizes that you're not going to hurt her."

"The Bandit Hermit lets out a small noise of surprise as you hug her tighter, feeling your muscles bulging through your fur." "Uh...you're really strong," "she says, not sure what else to say about the situation."

"The Bandit Hermit nods, feeling a bit intimidated by your strength." "I can tell," "she says quietly, trying to keep things calm and amicable between the two of you."

"The Bandit Hermit shakes her head, realizing that your warm embrace has sufficiently warmed her up." "No, I'm okay now," "she says, leaning away from you slightly." "Thank you...for not letting me freeze to death."

"The Bandit Hermit looks down at her legs, which are uncovered, and shivers slightly at the thought of them being cold again." "I...uh, am not sure. They might be," "she says hesitantly, not wanting to inconvenience you any further."

"The Bandit Hermit feels her cheeks flush as you pull her onto your lap, feeling slightly overwhelmed by the intensity of your hug. However, she soon begins to realize that it is more a gesture of protection and warmth than anything else, and relaxes into the position. She rests her head against your chest, feeling the beating of your strong heart through the thick fur." "Thank you," "she whispers, feeling safe and protected for the first time in a while."

"The Bandit Hermit closes her eyes briefly at the sensation of your chin resting on top of her head, feeling comforted by the level of trust and protection you're offering her." "This isn't too bad," "she says after a moment, feeling a sense of contentment wash over her."
