Andi looked back at Tyler with a grin "Well firstly because you pulled the chair out from under me, you tease me, bully me, almost dropped me in the lake, and so many more things that I could list... I mean you love to just tease me but I wouldn't call that actual *love*" She teased with a small shrug before returning her gaze right back out the window like him "Oh your welcome, just try not and loose them" Andi snorted with a smile resting on her face

"You can name so many disturbing reasons why you wouldn't call that love." Tyler commented flatly, though his face twisted into a small smile. "Though you are correct again, loving to tease is what makes me ... me. Could you imagine a world with a solem me? No jokes.. no insults... no teasing... no grins... no chuckling... no smiling... no laughing..." Tyler asked, his eyebrows drawing together slightly. "At that point it sounds like I would make a better bodyguard than a friend." He made a face, shaking his head with that thought. "I'll try, but no promises. You know me." Tyler answered with a crooked grin

"Disturbing reasons? Or do you mean the truth" Andi chuckled lightly as she joked before listening to Tyler speak again "I don't think we would be where we are today if you didn't do any of that. I don't even think I'd be batting an eye in your direction" She stated while scrunching her nose up at the thought. It would definitely be weird to see Tyler act like that especially since she knew he couldn't stop himself from throwing a tease or insult here and there. "Yep and you'll lose them quickly too" Andi snorted looking back at him with a grin

"Disturbing reasons and the truth can be the same thing." Tyler retorted with a half chuckle, his gaze flitting to Andi before meandering back over to the window. "Aww you batted an eye in my direction? How sweet." Tyler commented with a grin, his eyes twinkling. He then preoccupied himself with naming the bird species that flew past the window. "Chicadee... Chicadee... Chicadee.... Chicadee... Chicadee..." He muttered under his breath, almost looking exasperated. Tyler's face lit up when he finally saw a different bird. "House sparrow!" He half crowed. "Now stop teasing me about the window and take up the frstrating sport of bird watching, will you?" Tyler snorted at Andi before turning around and leaving the wall, walking outside. He needed fresh air. Raven padded out behind him, yawning before curling up on the deck.

Andi rolled her eyes at Tylers first retort not wanting to comment any further on it. She leaned up further against the wall but kept her gaze out the window "Yes I did bat my eyes in your direction mainly because you were just some weirdo standing in my apartment and now you can't seem to leave me alone." Andi replied with a grin growing on her face, it really was true. Right after the incident in the apartment Tyler just never seemed to go away and now Andi didn't mind it but before she really just wanted him to disappear. She watched the birds go by the window and listened to what Tyler mumbled -Chicadee?...- She thought to herself. Andi barely knew any bird types so anything he said was probably going to be a mystery to her. Suddenly she jumped slightly as he shouted in her ear -Karma..- She grumbled to herself as Tyler started walking out the door "I can barely sit still while thinking, what makes you think I can sit still long enough to bird watch?" Andi retorted while following him out to porch, she didn't walk out into the field but isntead flopped right beside Raven

-Le gasp- He did not shout in her ear. He quietly crowed, a sign of triumph. *sniff*)) - "Some weirdo, eh? Is that how you still see me?" Tyler asked, his gaze flitting around as he watched for birds. Oh he could sit still and bird watch for hours and hours. If only there weren't so many darn chicadees. "Nothing makes me think that, but maybe I can trick you into falling asleep again because you got so bored." He answered helpfully, smiling slightly. -Ooooo woodpecker...- Tyler thought, wishing it wasn't DARK so he could actually SEE what kind. Though, if he saw an owl, it would make up for it. -Barn owl, great horned owl, screech owl, any type I would be so happy- He thought, then glanced at Andi. "Also, I'm starting to get the feeling you don't know a whole lot about animals." Tyler commented, sitting down on the deck with a slight huff to continue watching. He drew his knee up and rested his arm on it, his near black eyes flying around the clearing to catch a glimpse of anything that moved.

Sorry I know what crowed means but still I always think that it means a shout or being loud since crows are loud and annoying lol) ~ "Mmm no not really, your more.. more.. Well there's a lot to say about you, all good things but now your just a gentle giant that is stubborn.. like really stubborn" Andi commented while gently picking up Raven and put her in her lap, which she fit perfectly and curled up again. After watching Raven for a bit and listening to Tyler she looked back up at him "Honestly you probably could" Andi snorted knowing how true it was, if she got really bored she would just get drowsy then eventually fall asleep. It was sometimes great that it happened but other times it wasn't so great of a skill to have. She shrugged her shoulders slightly at his next comment and let him sit down before replying "Nope not one bit... I know the basic animals but I never really got taught all the different species which is surprising because of how long I lived in the country where everywhere you looked there was some sort of animal" She said a bit quietly, kind of embarrassed by the fact of how little she knew. It wasn't entirely her fault though since her father never took the time to teach her things like that so she just had to rely on books to teach her.

Oh yeah never meant to imply you didn't LOL, it's fine)) - Tyler gave Andi a glance as she stumbled on trying to find the right words to say. -Just be blunt about it- He thought gruumpily. When she did finally decide what to say, though, Tyler offered a small smile. "... thanks... I think." He commented with a tipped head, knowing that was definetely better then most insults Andi had obviously been thinking of. "I totally could." He agreed. "I would just have to drone on about Japanese Spider Crabs for the next ten minutes and you would be out." Tyler chuckled. At her words he nodded thoughtfully, pondering that. Oh how terrible it would be to not have a good enough father to teach you about different animals. Tyler got taken away from his father at 12, but he still had crammed in a lot of information. Since the Carters... his whole family... hated people, they tended to know a LOT about animals. "I could try to teach you some stuff." Tyler offered, glancing at Andi to see how she would respond

Oh I know you didn't meant to imply that, I just worded it weird y'know... I'm horrible with words if you can't tell by now lol) ~ Andi smiled back slightly knowing that she probably didn't choose the best words to describe him but there was just so many she could choose from it was hard. "You think? Ugh it took me so much effort thinking of those" She retorted with a grin which turned into a chuckle. When Tyler mention.. something crabs she had a puzzled look on her face "A what now?... Those things sound weird" She said trying to think back if she ever read about them but in the end she came up with nothing. All Andi coudl think of was just regualr crabs and even those she barely knew about since she never visited the ocean where they lived or even read a lot about them. She got lost in thought for a moment before glancing back at Tyler "Would you really do that?" Andi asked quietly not really knowing why he would want too.

uh...er... hmm.. yeah.. XD)) - Tyler chuckled slightly at her words, still staring out at the moonlit field. "Yes, I think. Amazing isn't it?" He asked lightly, his dark eyes glittering. When he did glance at Andi, seeing her puzzled face... he tried to think of why she would be puzzled. When she spoke he got his answer. "A Japanese Spider Crab, or Macrocheira kaempferi, for it's scientific name. The name in Japanese means 'tall legs crab'." Tyler explained, then realized Andi was going to think he was speaking in a different language and have no idea what he said. He blew out a breath, sitting back a little. "For you, they are underwater monsters that grow really big with orange and white spots." Tyler finished helpfully, guessing that would make more sense then what he just said. At her last comment he looked at her, nodding. "I really would. Knowing some animals of the woods, what they do, and how to hunt them can be really useful." He said quietly, no teasing tone or joking voice showing.
