[bgcolor=#cc0000][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] Wow, they must have been a lot rougher than even [i]he[/i] could recall. It was like... a very vivid blur, as oxymoronic as that sounded. He could remember what they'd done, but it was so wild that it's like there was light fog over it that didn't obscure the memory just... doused it a bit. Either way, she had reclaimed his attention with the purring- he didn't think [i]Aranea[/i] could also purr. Kurloz tried to, sort of- Porrim could, and he's certain Meulin can, but it's astounding that she can as well. He gently eased her to sit on the ledge of the bathtub, "9f c9urse, whatever y9u 6elieve will add t9 the pr9cess will 6e d9ne." He started to get the water running- not too hot so that he would oveheat, but not too cold so she'd freeze over. A decent lukewarm setting began to fill the tub, he'd grabbed the additives she spoke of and made sure to distribute as evenly as he could amidst the water. 07:00:09
(<:v he can't even devour fruit and be healthy, why is everyone trying to eat him 07:00:35
[color=#005682]ARANEA: She allowed him to seat her on the edge of the tub, allowing him to go looking for the things she'd suggested adding to the bath. Perhaps she should suggest some candles, as well? Maybe just dimming the light? The thoughts of making the setting more romantic raced around her head as she idly shifted to remove her dress again, carefully undressing so that they could get in the bath. They weren't very well about to bathe with their clothes on, after all. "M-May8e we could dim the lights a little?" She finally worked up the nerve to ask for a few more requests. If she was going to make any moves, then the scene should be set just right. "A-And some candles! May8e some scented candles?" Her eyes pleaded with him silently as she shifted herself to toss her remaining undergarments to the floor. If her requests went over his head in what sort of setting she was trying to encourage... Well, it'd probably be a miracle. Part of her hoped he would have at least some kind of inkling as to how she wanted this to proceed. 07:06:02
[bgcolor=#cc0000][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] He stirred the water around, mmmm... it smelled rather nice. He was rather straight laced when he cleansed himself: nice cold water, soap (scent and type did not really matter), and it was usually a shower rather than a bath, but he was indulging her wants. All in all, he thought this was... extracurricular, but inoffensive. He was a bit startled by her extra requests, though, seeing as they came so quick and at a rather striking time. "U-Uhhh... well, I d9n't see why n9t. We'd have t9 6e quite careful, th9ugh. It w9uld 6e ashame t9 cause a fire hazard." Weird, but exactly bad. He had to use his mind to morph the switch into a slider, dimming the lights low. He did so again to spawn scented candles in the sink cupboard; since there was an obvious flower/plant theme going on, eucalyptus came to mind and thus was what was created. He pulled them out along with a lighter and began methodically set it up around the bathtub's ledge, waiting for her to get in before lighting them. 07:21:54
(Aranea: *machavellian plotting*[br]Kankri: this is a dangerous bath, ngl 07:26:11
[color=#005682]ARANEA: She waited patiently for the mood to be set, taking a few deep breaths as if trying to calm her nerves. Once everything was more or less in place, she slid her legs over the edge to slide herself into the water. Her hands cupped some of the water to rinse off her face a little, her fingers combing through her slightly tangled hair. "I-I'll make sure that nothing happens with the candles." Aranea chose to assure him, her hands sinking into the water as she followed him eagerly with her eyes. It was difficult to be patient, but patience was something she became rather skilled with. Once he had lit the candles, she gestured for him to join her in the bath- after he removes his clothes, obviously. 07:27:39

[bgcolor=#cc0000][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] It looks like everything was to her liking. Her gestured caused him to blush a bit, even though they'd just done something... MUCH more crazy and revealing, it was still made him a bit anxious. Kankri took a moment to turn away and undress; yes, they've already seen plenty of each other already, it is still a thing he will do. He wasn't precisely sure how she wanted this done, picking the neutral route of climbing in [i]across[/i] from her so that they were face-to-face, but that really just served to cause him more embarrassment, "Umm... h9w is the water f9r y9u?" 07:39:10

[color=#005682]ARANEA: Seeing him still be so shy, especially after just how... [i]Into it[/i] he had been before made her stifle a playful giggle. She didn't mind, though. Once he was in the water, she glanced down towards the water sheepishly. "Oh, the water is fine........" Aranea paused for a moment before scooting herself closer to him. "I-If you turn around, I can wash your 8ack for you!" Perhaps she was a little too eager with her suggestion, but she was sure that he probably wouldn't mind not having to make eye contact for a bit. 07:46:29
♊: "I will try to get better, ma'am, I don't want to break your bloodpusher. I know I'm wounded and you are probably feeling bad for me..." 07:47:11
[color=#008141]♍: Dolorosa nodded a little. "It's okay. You know how I am. I'll always be worrying about all of you, whether you want me to or not." 07:47:54
♊: "If you want to worry about something serious right now maybe you should try to make sure Disciple isn't walking around naked... again." 07:51:54
[color=#008141]♍: She laughed a little, her hand delicately covering her lips to stifle it. "Last I saw her she was clothed, so hopefully Kankri is keeping her in check." 07:54:07
[bgcolor=#cc0000][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] "G99d, that's g99d." It seems as though he got the setting right, even if her requests were rather extraneous. Weird, but it was nothing to plight over. Then came her words; that was quite the quick offer she made. "9-9kay, that w9uld 6e nice.." Kankri accepted with little hesitation, taking a bit to shift around before scooting back toward her until he felt her directly against him. He let a tense, shallow exhale slip from his mouth. It was nerve-wracking! "I-I'll 6e sure t9 return the fav9r afterward." Maybe she wanted things to be so dim because she was feeling a little self-conscious just like he was. That made sense to him, at least. He took a moment splash some water into his face, work on some of those lipstick stains. 07:55:17
♊: "You trust those two idiots to be all by themselves? Because I don't... we both know they get in a lot of trouble." 08:01:26
[color=#005682]ARANEA: "Th-Thank you," She murmured quietly, feeling a little flustered when his back pressed into her. Her hands cupped some water to gently rinse down the scratches and claw marks on his back before she gently rubbed his back to help wash his skin. "Um. K-Kankri!" She cleared her throat, not having expected her voice to come out so loud. Her tone quieted a little as she continued. "I-I, um. I wanted to ask what you........ What you, um, thought a8out me?" Aranea asked this carefully, leaning in to press her chest against his back. Hopefully her cool skin would help soothe any pain that having rubbed over the wounds may have caused him. Despite everything they'd done together- and the things he said about it- she wanted to get a read for exactly how he felt towards her. Perhaps it was just to soothe her own mind. 08:03:01
[color=#008141]♍: "That's true. I'm sure they're probably getting themselves into trouble as we speak. But I did see them wandering off with his descendent, so hopefully that will help them mind their manners." 08:03:53
[bgcolor=#cc0000][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] The scented water stung the wounds she had given him, it's only now he realizes how rough she'd started getting towards the end of their endeavor. Some blood drained out of the wound, but just barely any to even bother dyeing the water, seemed that dreambubble healing factor had already begun kicking in, working quite well with the frigid temperature of her body. He was beginning to relax a bit before hopping a bit with splish from hearing her call his name ao suddenly and settling back with a little splash. He turned his head a bit to show she had his attention as he listened to her question, "What d9 I think..?" He allowed a few beats of silence to pass, gathering whatever he could think of before reporting back, "I think y9u're excepti9nal: y9u're kn9wledgea6le, studi9us, passi9nate a69ut all that y9u pursue, rather gener9us with what inf9rmati9n y9u c9me acr9ss even if 9thers are n9t in very seeking m99d– did I already say y9u're 6eautiful?

Umm... y9u... kiss endearingly well.." what more could he say without just... talking about what they did? Not that he was trying to forget, but it seemed rude to talk about her... that way. 08:20:05

[color=#005682]ARANEA: Aranea could feel the blush in her cheeks spreading throughout her face as he continued on with praise. Even when he addressed one of her not-so-good qualities, he was still careful enough to try to avoid upsetting her. She listened to him intently, some of his feelings coming across perhaps a bit more than he intended- as well as a bit more than she had intended to read. Her arms slowly slipped around his waist as she rested her cold cheek against his back, closing her eyes for a moment as she tried to gather her own thoughts. From the sounds of things, he saw her in a positive light- and to her it certainly seemed like he could have something of a flushed attraction towards her. "Kankri, I........ I was wondering-" She paused for a moment, almost holding her breath as she tried to steel her nerves. "I, um- I'd like to- If it's alright with you! I'd like to, um, may8e- [sub]8e your m8sprite?[/sub]" She rushed through the last words a little, but it was unlikely he would have been unable to hear her from how close they were. Her hands were shaking slightly as she clung onto him, her quickened heartbeat likely able to be felt against his back. 08:27:20
Kankri MK II: Deux Inquieter [] joined chat. ~~ 38 ~~ 08:29:39
[bgcolor=#cc0000][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] He was attempting to think of more things- he wasn't sure how much she wanted or needed to hear, and it wasn't as if he was actually running out of things to say, he just wanted to keep things strictly "professional". He sucked in a low breath, it still stung a little to have her press against his back like that, but it was bearable- what may not be bearable is... [i]that question[/i]. It was as though time stopped, the exact moment the question left her lips, his mind shut off and all went still. He was stiff, processing her last words over and over and over, but not having any form of rebuttal or response or even an action plotted out. Kankri was also seeming to hold his breath involuntarily before tajing in a big gasp to replenish his facilities, "M-My ap9l9gies- I uhh... I d9n't 6elieve I-I heard y9u c9rrectly, Aranea.." 08:38:49
♊: "It is a bit ironic that HIS descendent is the most mature among the three of them but he survived all by himself for a reason." He sighed, taking a bite of his snack. "Would you like to explore the place? I can protect you if you need it." 08:42:19
[color=#005682]ARANEA: Her arms around him tightened a little, mostly in an attempt to soothe her own nerves. She squeezed her eyes shut, as if trying to prevent herself from getting [i]too[/i] emotional. "W-We don't have to tell any8ody right away! I-I just-" She stammered, a cold tear could be felt against his skin as she tried to gather her composure. "I- I suppose I've........ 8ecome a little more than flushed towards you- A-And that........ [i]Experience[/i] just s-solidified it," she was just rambling now, more cold droplets falling against his skin. "I-I understand if it's too much for you- I'll try to 8e satisfied without it, I just. I felt like I should 8e honest with you and ask-" Aranea was clinging to him desperately, almost like the water they were sitting in was a vast sea ready to tear them away from each other if she let her guard down. 08:46:17
[color=#008141]♍: She hummed slightly in thought, cupping her chin. "Yes, that sounds like it would be lovely. Although- I'm not sure you will need to do much protecting. I hope it doesn't hurt your self esteem too much." Dolorosa couldn't help but tease him a little, pushing herself to her feet. 08:47:27
♊: "Someone needs to get their hands dirty and I won't allow that to be you." Psii got up with a grunt. "Maybe we can find the alternate Meulin or Kurloz... They are nice kids." 08:51:42
[color=#008141]♍: "Oh, what a gentletroll." She pushed her arm from the sheer covering around her to hook her arm around his. "It would certainly be nice to see what some of these alternates are like. You seem to already think rather fondly of them." 08:56:31
[bgcolor=#cc0000][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] That's what he [i]thought[/i] she said and even having it repeated... it was a task to truly process it. This was- it was- well, to be quite frank with himself, it was downright [i]inconceivable[/i]. He- well, he's [i]him[/i]. Kankri has no experience with anything, he doesn't know anything about quadrant beyond the basic ideas of what they are, what constitutes as certain affections of a particular quadrant- he elected NOT to study up on something he thought he would never need to because he was CELIBATE and ABSTINENT, but now both things had been demolished in a single fell swoop. To make matters far, [u]Far[/u], [u]FAR[/u] more complicated... hearing it outright from Aranea makes him realizes that Porrim was probablg saying the same thing- it was all... muddled. He felt her tears slide down his back, frosty as could be, but it wasn't good to know it came from her crying out of stress. Listening to her ramble about it was.... scary. He was really scared- for her and for himself, but mostly for her. Kankri swallowed the lumo that seemed to build in his throat from his silence, "I-I....... I..... I pr96a6ly have n9 right t9 ask anything 9f any9ne in this regard, 6-6ut.. can y9u... wait..? F-F9r me t9 figure 9ut a resp9nse I mean- I-I just... I d9n't kn9w yet-" Shit. SHIT. This was a lot to take in. He turned a bit, patting her head, "I'm s9rry t9 ask that 9f y9u after everything, 6ut really- I d9n't kn9w..." 08:59:53
Kankri MK II: Deux Inquieter [] joined chat. ~~ 38 ~~ 09:09:28
[color=#005682]ARANEA: When he turned himself, she loosened her grip to allow him to do so. She looked up at him with teary eyes, biting back a sob as he asked her to wait. Although she nodded in agreement, it showed on her face that it seemed like she was thoroughly upset by his response. It felt more-or-less like it was unlikely he would return to her with a positive answer, despite everything they'd done together. She shifted herself to nestle into his chest, clinging to him as she tried to soothe herself somewhat. "Th-That's okay. I-I can w8. I'll w8 for you." Her words were choked out, but she knew that she had already sprung a lot onto him. He was already under a lot of pressure due to him breaking his vows for her, and she was sure she moved too fast in trying to tidy everything together. Granted, she wouldn't have wanted to keep it a secret for long, but she would be willing to do so if it meant she was able to have him to herself. Her shoulders shook slightly as she leaned into his touch, situating herself somewhat into his lap as she curled up against him. Even if they couldn't label their relationship, she still wanted to at the very least bask in his affections, if even just for a little longer. 09:09:44
[bgcolor=#cc0000][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] It's hard to see her essentially breakdown after such a good time spent- and not just [i]THAT[/i] part- the time before was exquisite as well... maybe he should just say yes- that would save her a lot mental agony and emotional turmoil... But then would he really be [i]with[/i] her or just... with her? It didn't seem fair to ask her to wait, but it seemed even more unfair to just agree and potentially end up resenting that decision in the long run. He continued to pat her head, moving on to smooth her hair and rubbing her back to comfort her. Aranea seemed a bit more fragile now, and the last thing he wanted to do was [i]actually[/i] break her. He's going to need help... for now, he was going to make sure Aranea was well. The idea that she was "waiting for him" in particular was... off-putting, it didn't seem like what he said when he was asking her to wait... He wanted to give her a kiss, but that's what got him in so much trouble in the first place, so he chose to shooshpap her instead, rocking her steady in the water to turn the sea into nothing more than a pond. "It's 9kay, it's 9kay, I just... need t9 figure s9me things 9ut- I can pr9mise that I will have an answer f9r y9u the next time we see each 9ther.." 09:24:02

[color=#005682]ARANEA: After a few moments, her sniffles calmed down and she relaxed against him slightly. She didn't want to have to wait, but she also didn't want to force him into a situation that he might not want to be in. Aranea gave a rather pathetic nod of understanding, her grip on him loosening a little as she cuddled herself into his warmth. She wasn't quite ready to let him go, but she knew she would have to sooner or later. After taking a few deep, albeit shaky, breaths, she sat up a little and eyed over his face. There was still a look of sorrow staining her face, but she leaned up some to press a gentle kiss to his cheek. She could tell he was reluctant to kiss her on the lips after her confession, so she wouldn't force him even if she wanted to kiss him properly. "I know........ I-I'm sorry- I shouldn't have rushed into things the way I did. I didn't mean to put so much pressure on you. It's just- Hard to hold myself 8ack when it comes to you, I suppose," she let out a sad laugh, her hand coming up to cup his cheek gently. "I-I just hope- That you're still okay with doing things together, whatever you decide on." 09:38:56

Kankri was unsure that she'd be able to handle herself for... however long it may take for him to ascertain what he really wanted, "That is 9kay, I'm h9n9red t9 have y9ur... ardent investment. Y9u sh9uldn't feel ashamed 9f y9ur em9ti9ns at all." He accepted the kiss to the cheek, even if he figured it best not to kiss her back for the time being.

[color=#005682]ARANEA: Aranea bit down on her lower lip, pulling her hand away from him and shakily moving herself off of him. She would certainly take him up on that offer, but she felt that she may need to spend a little while by herself after this. "I-I'd definitely like to spend more time together again soon. Even if we don't do much. I also understand if........ There's someone else who you-" She caught herself, turning her gaze away. Someone else he preferred? Someone else he harbored more intense red affections towards? Aranea couldn't bring herself to say it. Scooting away a little, she slid down into the water until the majority of her body was submerged, leaving just the top half of her head exposed so that she could still breathe. After a minute or so, she brought herself up just enough so her whole head was free. "Do you- Would you like me to heal you?" The way she asked it made it seem like a much more loaded question. It was almost like an offer to erase any lingering proof of their... Encounter. 10:10:03
[color=#008141]♍: "Yes, caring for the young takes a great deal of patience. I suppose it is something I, as a jadeblood, was raised to have a great deal of. I'm not sure I can imagine you as a caretaker for wigglers." 10:11:12

[color=#008141]♍: "Perhaps. I do consider myself to handle younger trolls quite well." She followed close to him, patting his arm with her free hand. "I can't imagine you did too poorly, though." 10:15:04
[bgcolor=#cc0000][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] Kankri could only watch seemingly begin to sulk. It was painful, Aranea's taking this rather harshly. How was he meant to respond to her lingering thoughts on why he may have declined her advance just now? For the time being—until he can speak to somewhat of a professional—he was going to avoid any talk of the issue at hand, "Ummm... I'm certain there will 6e plenty f9r us t9 d9 t9gether later 9n, d9 n9t fret." He rubbed over his arms with the water, not necessarily ignoring her, but simply trying to pretend she isn't growing increasingly more and more depressed, that was until she popped a rather odd question- well, he supposes it was reasonable, he WAS rather hurt from their exchange. He cleared his throat, "Th-That's quite alright, Aranea. I'll 6e 9kay t9 6ear with it- my sweater sh9uld c9ver m9st 9f the damage, 6ut thank y9u all the same." 10:24:05

[color=#005682]ARANEA: She almost looked a little relieved by him declining her offer, shifting herself to turn away from him slightly to wash herself off some more. "A-Alright." Aranea knew she shouldn't sit and sulk in front of him- she didn't exactly want him to feel guilty or make it feel like he needed to rush to give her an answer. When she said she was capably of maintaining some semblance of patience, she meant it. Even if she didn't enjoy having to be patient, she was willing to do so when necessary. Regardless, she was at a loss for words. She didn't know what else to say, so she simply continued to bathe herself as well as she could. She supposed that even setting the mood wasn't enough to truly sway someone.[br] [br]After a few moments of them washing each other in silence, Aranea shifted and caused the water to slosh around a little. She lifted herself up onto the side of the tub, shakily bringing her legs over the edge to remove herself from the water. Although her legs barely wanted to listen, she took herself to her feet to get towels for the both of them. After setting a neatly folded towel near the bathtub, she proceeded to start drying herself off. "You, um, can stay in the 8ath for a while longer. I'll leave first. I can't imagine you would want anyone to see us leaving together." 10:31:36
[color=#008141]♍: "Teenagers are definitely a handful." She laughed a little bit, pausing occasionally to look at some of the decor. 10:32:14
♊: "Do you like it? I don't know who could imagine such thing but I bet they had an- interesting taste, decor-wise." Psii was patient with Dolorosa, he really missed her and spending some time together was something he wanted ever since he was helmed. 10:33:25
[color=#008141]♍: "It's definitely strange, but it's hard to place a finger on exactly who it was that came up with all of this. It almost feels like it's a combination of multiple people's tastes." She pulled her arm from his, moving to pick up what looked like a small sculpture of a woman holding a child. The figure didn't have horns, so it struck her as particularly strange. 10:35:56
♊: "That one is... quite interesting. I think that is human art and architecture- It's alien, outer space creatures who can live under the sun and take care of their youngest. The Empress settled in their planet for a while and pretended she was one of them." 10:38:00
[color=#008141]♍: "Ah." She couldn't say she ever had the leisure to think about there being aliens floating around. "How intriguing. Perhaps I would have fit in better there than I did on Alternia." After looking it over a few times, she put it back down on the shelf she had picked it up from. 10:39:42
♊: "You would have fit in better than her, that's for sure. She had to raise two human grubs, you can assume how things went after that. I still wonder what happened with those two... I don't even think they know about my existence at all." 10:40:53
[color=#008141]♍: A dry laugh escaped her lips at the thought of their brutal empress raising the young on her own. "I can only hope that they survived, at the very least." She was shocked that she didn't just wipe out the race immediately, but she can only imagine what she did once she'd had her fun with the planet. 10:42:57
♊: "I don't know how long humans live or if they end up in this place as well, it could be interesting to meet some without being a hostage." Psii was always interested on alien lifeforms and exploring the cosmos, the Space was a beautiful place but Alternia just wanted to colonize planets rather than discover them. 10:44:44
[color=#008141]♍: "Well, I'm sure there has to be at least a couple aliens wandering around in here if there's so many trolls from different universes and timelines here, as well." She'd always supported his interests, even if there weren't a way for her to take all of them to explore the galaxy. Surviving Alternia alone was its own challenge. 10:47:04
♊: "Probably... it would be fascinating to meet some. Other lifeforms who don't rely on the hemospectrum-" 10:51:37
[color=#008141]♍: She nodded in agreement, although it was difficult for her to imagine a world that didn't have everything organized by blood color. "I suppose we can only hope to meet some." 10:55:19
♊: "Sorry- I got too carried imagining a life with other lifeforms and we are not even alive-" 10:55:49
[color=#008141]♍: "It's fine. It isn't as though there is much else to do but to try to imagine new things here." She returned to his side, taking hold of his arm once more. 10:56:48
♊: "Y-Yes ma'am" He kept walking, trying to look serious while holding her arm back. Psii sure was a gentletroll. "We can go outside if you want... the sun won't burn us." 10:58:54
[color=#008141]♍: "That could be nice. I haven't been back outside since I first got here." She had simply wanted to rest for a while once she'd finally reunited with everyone, after all. 11:00:04
♊: Psii nodded and led Dolorosa outside. "I do recall there was some snow? I almost cull some seadweller ghost with a huge snowball. Maybe you'd like to play a bit with the snow." 11:02:26
[color=#008141]♍: "Oh- I don't think I've ever gotten to really see snow before." She was going to gloss over the fact that he may have been using unnecessary violence in her absence. "What exactly does playing in the snow entail?" 11:05:03
♊: "You pick up the snow, make sculptures with it or just mold it into a ball and throw them to the other one, bonus points if they hit that other one. Seems snow is pretty easy to mold.* 11:07:28
[color=#008141]♍: She hummed a little in intrigue as they made their way over to the snow. Her dress was definitely not made for trekking through snow, turns out, but she didn't really mind that much. "Perhaps we could try making a sculpture together? I just hope you don't expect me to be very good at it." 11:11:29
♊: "We could try, with your level of schoolfeeding I'm sure you are better at it than I am. I'm not a good artist..." 11:12:20
[color=#008141]♍: A quiet giggle escaped her lips as she released his arm to kneel in the snow. "Art isn't something we get taught much about, I'm afraid." She gathered some snow up a little sloppily, doing her best to figure out the kind of texture she was working with. 11:15:38
♊: "What do you want to make? Do not expect me to do a very good job..." 11:16:20
♊: ((brb 11:16:23
[color=#008141]♍: "Hmm... I'm not too sure, perhaps we could try to sculpt a wiggler? That shouldn't be too difficult, I hope." 11:17:42

[bgcolor=#cc0000][color=black]KANKRI:[/color][/bgcolor] He let the silence sit between them. What more could he say to her? For once, he didn't [i]want[/i] to talk... It was like if Kankri spoke any more it would only serve to demoralize and harm her pysche and he doesn't want Aranea to... go down a darker path. Whether he's involved in that or not. He washed his face and hair, systematically working his way down- and then Aranea hopped out, seemed like she was getting ready to go- not that he was sending her away- not intentionally anyways... "I d9n't mind us 6eing..." well, what would being seen together after getting all cleaned up entail? Nothing, but he also didn't want to... lead her on? Kankri is trying to figure this all out- he's not used to all these emotions lacing the air. It was thick and suffocating. He didn't want to entertain things and then... have her or anyone else get hurt from it, "...Sure, that w9rks just fine. Thank y9u- f9r... everything. Really, I mean that." 00:53:35
[color=#005682]ARANEA: Aranea probably knew better about what sorts of conclusions people could jump to with the smallest shreds of evidence, especially in the dreambubbles. As Porrim once said, it truly is just an infinite echo chamber of teen drama. She nodded a little as she pulled out a fresh set of clothes to wear, capchaloguing her dirty clothes to deal with later, before getting dressed. She opted for her little winter dress this time. "........ You're welcome. I- Um, I'd still like to do more l8er, 8ut. For now, I think it's 8etter that I give you some space." Her voice trailed off as she glanced back at him. She wanted to stay- to spend more time with him, but she knew that indulging herself further would just make it harder for her to let him go if he did ultimately decide to turn her down later. "Well, then. I'll 8e w8ing." She slipped out of the bathroom near-silently, then out of the bedroom attached and off into the halls of the manor. 00:59:33
