Trick was walking through the forest as he had absolutely nothing better to do with his life. He looked around, boredom plain on his face and irritation sparking in his all black eyes. Where was someone to torment when you needed them?
With a sigh of defeat Trick slouched against a nearby tree, deciding that if no one showed up in the next five minutes, he'd start slashing at his chest again to have some fun.

Jaime looked over, spotting his deputy leaving. There was something uncontrollably eerie about him, something that didn't settle with Jaime. He got up from where he was sitting and made his way over to him, stay a few feet behind before making his way over "Trick." he called out as the Deputy set himself up against a tree "Are you sure you're all there for the Deputy position?" he asked him, his face held a stern, leader-like look in it. Unlike his usual friendly and naive look. He narrowed his eyes a bit, his eyes spotting the faint slash marks on the Deputy's chest.
He had his doubts heightened about the Deputy ever since he saw how he acted. A bit.....evil? Too evil for such a good place in the tribe. Not to mention the lack of trust and communication between the two.

Trick looked up at his leader and grinned broadly, flashing all his teeth. His pitch black eyes sparkled with some hidden emotion. Although he could definetely be considered insane on some level, he wasn't inherently evil by normal standards. He was just a little loopy. Regardless of some actions he took, he was completely loyal to his tribe, he was just loyal in his own way.
Dipping his head slightly to Jaime he smiled. "I get that you don't trust me. But before you judge, can you give me a chance to prove myself first? I promise I wont kill you or anything."
Though Trick was a loose cannon in most cases, he as trying to learn how to control his darker side.

Jaimelooked at Trick with the same distrusted look, he shook his heard sharply "No, deputy and leadership has nothing to do with fighting. Although that's an important skill to have, it's more important to know how your tribe runs and how to handle things and react." he said and looked down at Trick, shaking his head again "I'm not going to waste my time fighting. I only want to know that you'll be able to handle this tribe sanely and not let it fall to pieces if i'm gone." he looked his tribemate in the eye sternly, looking for a promise. Looking for something to hold onto with this Deputy. So far, there was nothing to grasp, nothing but hyperactivity and insanity.

Trick raised and eyebrow skeptically. "Perhaps you are the one who has lost his mind, my esteemed leader. I don't recal ever mentioning fighting with you, I merely asked for a chance to prove myself. That chance can come in any form that you wish, if you so choose to grant me it that is."
He bowed formally, not exaggerating the movement. He was just old fashioned that way. "As a tribe member of Mentis, and your deputy, you have my word that I will never do anything to hurt you or this tribe."
He looked up at Jaime but remained in a bow, a crooked grin crossed his lips. "Is that enough of a vow for you? Trust me on this, if you think you can trust me that is, once I give my word, it's set for good."
And he meant it, as unstable as Trick was, to him his word along with the word of his leader was law and he would never break a vow that he had made.

Jaime looked at him up and down, he still didn't trust him. Although there was loaded trust and hope behind the nearly-insane member, there was just something about him that made Jaime's bones quiver with warnings. He sighed "You promised not to kill me, i took it as a threat to fight." he put out an arm in an attempt to offer a handshake.
He sighed "Poor choice of words, you should really watch how you say things." he smiled feebly.

Trick laughed and grasped the offered hand, shaking it but not too tightly. "Noted Jaime, I'll be more careful with my words, promise."
He could see that the leader still felt uneasy about him, but Trick didn't really blame him. Even Trick knew how dangerous he could be sometimes, but with Jaime there seemed to be something extra warning him about Trick. He frowned and shook the thought away, he would just have to try harder to prove himself. With a smile at his leader he made a vague gesture out to the forest. "Are you busy? Or do you have time for a hunt?"

Jaime watched Trick closely and nodded "I have time for a good hunt." he smiled at his Deputy. If things went well, maybe he would open up more to the Deputy but there was something so off about him. Jaime new nothing about Trick's past or how he got to Mentis. What was his story?

Trick laughed and bounded off a few steps. He hadn't had a chance to relax and kick back for a while and he hoped that his leader would be able to relax as well. "Well? Let's get going then, my esteemed leader." He crowed with a laugh, his midnight black eyes sparking.
