Who: Midna & Arro
What: Their first actual meeting to, ah, arrange the terms of their agreement.
Where: Crystal Space
Warnings: Potential offscreen naughtiness, definite flirting.

The refractive sky was illuminating, but not necessarily bright. This was a small blessing for Midna; she'd have a terrible headache after a few minutes there otherwise. She paced, bouncing a little further than a typical step thanks to her powers keeping her bouyant, and waiting for Arro to show.

Likewise a blessing for Arro, the dimness. He wasn't sure why he he had been avoiding extremely bright lights lately, but that didn't matter much here. As he promised; he was there and in one of his best outfits, walking up calmly and coming to a standstill as he watched her pace.

Clearing his throat lightly after observing her a few moments and smiled, "Well hello~"

She turns, and her lips curl into a smile.

"Arro... nice to see you in person, finally."

"Aren't you a vision~" Even better in person, he was quite certain as he came up and tilted his head up to hold her gaze. She was noticeably taller than his height of 5'9", but he was hardly the type to let that intimidate him.

"Well, I suppose I should have brought my heels~" He spoke with a chuckle. Still, he didn't hide just how approving his gaze was.

She pulls her hood back and gazes back at him.

"Mmhmnhmn, I'm used to being looked up towards. But it's nice to be admired as opposed to loathed for once."

This prompts him to raise an eyebrow. "And how can anyone loathe such a woman~?"

Slowly, he reaches out for a small bit of her fiery strands to play with between his fingers. "I think you're quite admirable from my position. I suppose many are just blind?" Certainly, she had a unique appeal, a bit of a carefree spirit that stood out here.

If he didn't know any better, he'd say the lock of hair drapes around his fingers a little too much to be normal... she shifts a little closer.

"Humans fear and hate each other just because they're from different places; even though the land is unlimited, they still go to war. Naturally they'd hate me. I'm not even human."

The hair does catch his attention, and he does spare a glance to examine it, but his attention is called away quickly by her words, illiciting an amused look.

"Really, you expect them to be any different when they live such short lives~? We're a selfish people, and it shows through in everything....But I don't like to think of us a group. Rather I like to think more on those interesting few that break this trend." At least the ones that don't automatically hate new things on principle. "I must confess, I can't really say I care if you're human or not~ Beauty is beauty."

"Thank you. A handsome man like you, breaking that trend?"

She runs the back of a few fingertips down his arm.

"Mhmnhmn, There may be hope for humanity yet... or there will be if I have anything to say about it. Would you like to go somewhere that we can talk more comfortably?"

"Oh, I'll follow you anywhere~" He was hoping to keep this just to a chat, or at least intended to. Though, Arro really wondered if he had the resolve.

When she brushed her fingers on his arm, he finally let go of her hair and dared to let his hand fall to her waist and rest above one of her hips. "I am curious what your plans are for humanity, I'm a large believe of the
fact we need to change and break away from our current trends." He mentally patted himself on the back for this.

She let herself drift into his embrace. He WAS handsome, no doubt about that. But the Rift was the important thing. She couldn't, shouldn't get distracted... but...

"Mmhmn, we'll see. I was hoping you'd have a location in mind."

"Oh~ How about..." The bedroom? He didn't let that disappointment show on his face as he gently tugged her into a walk. There wasn't much here other than crystal, if she wanted a slightly better venue they'd have to leave and pick another place. How distracting she was though, his attention kept drifting and he kept cutting glances at her to study her figure, the way she seems to almost float along, and a few more things besides. A pity Roman fashion didn't evolve the same way as her people's.

"Mm. Well, I keep coming back to one place I'd like to take you to." He left it at that as a bit of a tease and tried to force himself back on topic. "You say you've had just as many problems with the Rift as we? Where are you from?"

"The Twilight Realm. At dark edge of the Fey lands." She walks with him, on his arm. She thinks she has a notion what you have in mind, Arro. "The Rift is not like yours there, but it's close. Very close. This is why we created the elaborate defense measures we have, thanks the goddesses that we had the skills to do so."

He smiled, listening intently. He was deeply interested in anything she had to say about her life and home. "Mm. They listen to those that truly believe in them." He had to admit, it was strange walking with a lady so much taller than he, but it was nice, and he could easily get used to it.

"Is it hard to visit? It sounds like an interesting place~" Really, it honestly did appeal to him, and he hoped he might eventually see how it different from Dagaria. "Now, are all the women as pretty as you, or do I have the pleasure of laying eyes on the loveliest of all~?"

"It's very hard to get to, yes. There's only one way in or out." And she's not going to tell you where it is, Arro. Not yet, anyway.

"It's very different from Dagaria. There's so much land in this world, compared to the Twilight Realm. All the places we have to live, we had to make ourselves by combining shadow and light. Not the thin kinds that exist here, though. Shadow pours like water there. Light is like crystal dust. It probably doesn't even make sense to you right now... but it might eventually."

The last question ends her reminisce with a smile. "They DO say I'm an... oddity. But I know a compliment when I see one."

"Ah, it doesn't make complete sense to me, but it does sound like something I'd be interested in learning about~" It sounded wonderful. Most Fey Lands did though if only for how fantastic they were to think about.

Though he did catch that small hint. At least he hoped it was a hint and not something he was reading into far too much. Arro very much wanted to see it first-hand.

He stopped, and turned to study her. An oddity... It sounded ridiculous to him, but perhaps it was true? He didn't know anything about her people after all, his people likely called her an oddity, and that was just stupid. "I wouldn't listen to critics~" He knew he'd feel a bit foolish for this, but he reached up to take hold of her shoulders, lightly gripping them and pulling her down as he leaned up onto his tip toes, trying for a chaste kiss.

She's surprised, but not really shocked, and curls a hand over his shoulder while returning the kiss. A utopic little island of time is shared before she rocks back minutely, her face still close, a tiny smirk to her lips.

"Mmhmn, you're very forward, Arro." Not that she minds.

"Only when I sense opportunity, Midna~" He nipped softly at her lips since they were so close and grinned. Bringing his hands to his own shoulders, he took her hands in his.

"Is it so forward to ask for more~?" He'd easily be greedy and take all he could get as long as it was allowed. Still, he was hesitant here because a lot was on the line.

She gasps quietly when he nips at her lips, a tiny shiver running up her spine. She grins back, clasping his hands with hers, bead bowed slightly to his level.

"Of course it is. That's why I'm glad you're the kind of man that would."

She dips down for another, soft, lingering kiss. She shouldn't, she KNOWS she shouldn't, but there's something about him...

He hums softly and takes his time with the kiss, squeezing urgently on her hands as he did.

"...So, about that one place in particular~?" Well, life was a bit short for regrets, not that he would regret it. More rather was the point to seize an opportunity when he had it.

"Mmhmn, lead the way." She says against his lips, her voice low.
