the truth that you'll find
will always be the truth you hide

There's a good chance that that same incredulous look he initially gives her is the same one he had been met with in the Forest so long ago. Minding the laugh that threatens to rise, she painfully bites down on her tongue to choke down the urge.  At least to snuff it temporarily, there wouldn't be any holding it back for forever.  Oh, she forgot to add the wink too that had accompanied that interesting pick-up line of his.  Quickly she remedies it, overexaggerating a wink in the most ridiculous way she would manage, still choking on the relentless laugh still growing within her.

But his response is better than she could have imagined, he pulled off her faux-haughtiness and snobby attitude rather beautifully.  Perhaps daresay, even better than she had done initially.  The absurdity of it breaks the seal, and she can't stop the laugh from finally erupting past her lips.

"It didn't" she says breathily between fits of laughter, forcing herself to begrudgingly rein it in"at first."  Recalling that she had walked away from him that day in favor of returning to Nerine.  Feeling as though her standards were plenty high--thank-you very much--she bypassed his quip to continue onward.  He may not feel as though he held much worth, but she would argue that sentiment until all of Beqanna would fall into Heaven or Hell if she had chosen to indulge his comment.  Likewise, she would wonder what could possibly have spurred his interest enough to want to make her his own.  But that topic would likely set the groundwork for a heavier subject discussion, and she was much too enjoying this lightheartedness to chance it.  "It's just a good thing you're great at being adorably irritating and handsome."

Now that the laughter had finally passed, her lips twist from something mischievous to something much more suggestive.  Pressing into the distance between them, she ran her muzzle beneath his gilded mane, following the broad arch of his neck from his poll to shoulder.  "Now if you remember correctly, this is the part where I would apologize for interrupting you and offer to give you all of my attention to make up for it.  But there are a couple problems with that. Firstly, I'm going to give you all of my attention today whether you like it or not, and secondly," she pauses to sharply graze her teeth over the point of his shoulder for emphasis, "I'm not sorry about it."

your world is still lacking of me, how do you love?
