Eleventh Snowfall: [text]

[towerlocked]

[she feels foolish for being captured. Of course she is grateful for the rescue, but the fact that it was needed at all makes her realize just how much she's been neglecting training]

Now that we are back in the port, I wonder if there are any swordsmen willing to teach me their skills? I am a willing student and will learn quickly.

[private to Chris Halliwell]
I have heard of this beverage called "coffee" but have never tried it. Would you like to accompany me as I do so?

Comments

[charmedson]

Some of them.

I meant you though. You're braver than I am.

[towerlocked]

[she doesn't know what to say, so she drinks more. She's almost finished with her hot chocolate. The coffee she chooses not to touch again. Chris was right about it being strong]

[charmedson]

Why don't we just continue with a walk?

You're right that I orb around too much. I end up missing seeing the city.

[towerlocked]

[she dabs her lips with a napkin to get rid of lingering chocolate residue]

Now that I am warmed up, a walk sounds very nice.

[charmedson]

[He gives her a smile and then moves to toss away their cups. He also walks over the sugar and cream to put them away.

As much as he likes showing off his powers, he doesn't want to draw that much attention to himself.

Once they're ready to leave he offers his arm to her.]

[towerlocked]

[she is happy to take his arm, smiling at him brightly. The look she gives him is no different but maybe now that he knows, the affection in her eyes might be more obvious]

Any destination in mind?

[charmedson]

Mm. Something outside? I know it's still cold but I feel like I spend all of my time cooped up inside or underground.

[towerlocked]

That will not do at all. Come, let's get you some fresh air. [she smiles at him playfully then. Hey, if anyone knows how it feels to be cooped up inside, it's her]

[charmedson]

[He grins at her playfulness and follows her, planing to take full advantage of the daylight while they still had it.]
