He didn't want to hurt her pride, but she didn't really weigh a whole lot. Lifting her was as easy as lifting a potato fry. Trying not to show her how little effort he was using, he plopped her down atop the wall and promptly jumped down on the other side. He wasn't going to insult her prowess by holding his arms out to catch her, but if she were anyone else, he would have.
As he waited, he tugged out the bands that bound his hair and stuffed them in a pouch at his belt. Freed, his hair drifted on the breeze. The bands were as much weights as they were hair-bands, and it kept his hair from literally being all over the place and getting tangled. In a pub, one didn't want hair that literally got everywhere. However, in the wild, away from people, Zo was more than happy to let his hair go unbound.
Once, he tried to explain why he let his hair grow, and hit a wall. He didn't have a ready explainable reason, and he surely didn't remember when he'd started thinking that way.
He turned, and stared up at Celeste on the wall and grinned wide, gesturing for her to hurry on up so they could disappear into the woods.
Just because he didn't want to talk didn't mean he didn't want her to be around.
