@INGENIOUSKNIGHT > Umm... We can have our first time tonight. It would burn more calories than this anyway."
She was a blushing mess at this point. The thought that she might spend all night.. Oh, by the Light.. Her heart was pounding..
"And we can also save water by showering together.."
@INGENIOUSKNIGHT Katya continued at her current pace while her face turned crimson.. Then, a thought occurred to her that made it even worse, to the point that she slowed the treadmill to a stop.
"Darling, can we stop our workout here and go back to my place? If we're just doing cardio, then.. >
@INGENIOUSKNIGHT > unbecoming of a knight or noble, especially considering my rank in the Court of Spades."
A blush crossed her cheeks as she continued.
"I'm not suggesting you give into your instincts and spend every night with me, but it wouldn't be immoral for us to occasionally make love."
@INGENIOUSKNIGHT She'll commit to a decent jog herself, whilst also reaching over and lowering the setting on his to a more sensible pace.
"With your stamina and weight, running it so high can damage the machine.. but about the prior conversation, you know that I wouldn't suggest something >
"Not yet, but thank you."
A hand slowly moved across the table as she reached for where the sound of a glass being placed originated. She then traced the glass from bottom to top, familiarizing herself with its shape before bringing to her nose and taking in the scent..
@InvokingAria
There wasn’t much mining to be done but that didn’t change the satisfaction the drink brought. A hard lemonade from scratch. Bitter, sweet and delicious.
But this person reminded her of someone. Even if she couldn’t think of how.
‘ ‘ Anything else? ‘ ‘
@INGENIOUSKNIGHT A soft laugh left Katya's lips at such sincerity. Her man was precious.
"Unfortunately, my workout is nearly over, but.. you know that you're allowed to see my frame completely bare if you want, right?"
Slowly finding her way to a treadmill. She was going to end with cardio.
Aw, mine beloved Katya never ceases to warm any icy worries that plague mine heart!
Thou art mine sunshine, and none shine brighter than thee. I shalt take note of this bit of 'silliness' as many may claim as one of thee's compliments!
Hug time!
It's not a bad thing. You're just not the average person. You're like the Hopeful. A beacon of light. A guardian. The kindest man I know. There's a reason I entrusted you with my heart.
Caballuz randomly feels a fatherlike urge to tell someone to watch themself around his daughter.
Though he doesn't have a daughter. And is not a father.
> promise to be the light of his life. A promise that she will be his for as long as he'll have her. A bated breath left her lips as she closed in, her form gently pressed against him.
"... Welcome to the Kingdom..."
In the moment that such a poetic promise left his lips, a new feeling arose deep within him. The wind whispered in his ear as she took his hands within her own. A feeling of joviality and laughter pierced took over as her Inner Light began to shine through him.
"Don Caballuz, >
Her inquiry confused him a bit, since he knew nary a thing about the Kingdom she speaks of.
"Indeed, I come from the world, and that is all!"
An important and serious request? He would lock onto her face and keep open ears...hmm, her cheeks seem rather red. Is she, perhaps, ->
> let me make a promise to you.. The words will not be clear, but you'll understand."
She then started to speak in some uncertain, melodic language. The words made no sense, but he could feel their meaning in the emotions they invoked. A promise to remain by his side. A >
> crimson, but they were barely visible under her mask... until the transformation dropped.
"Sir Caballuz, I have a far more important and serious request.. Make me yours, heart and soul. I may be blind, but even I can see that to not kindle that flame would be a great mistake."
Her heart practically skipped a beat upon being lifted off the ground.. and his words, she could almost hear the Queen of Swords pushing her towards him, alongside the Queen of Spades..
"Bound in heart and soul? Are you sure you're not from the Kingdom?"
Her cheeks turned >
He would cock his head, a bit confused even if it was an offer.
"I hath no reason regardless of the offer, lest we art bound in heart and soul. Despite mine speed, there is beauty in watching the little kindle slowly brighten up the hearth! So wait we must!"
He's gonna give ->
"You wouldn't? Your code of honor is a bit too strict, isn't it? Especially since that wasn't just some hypothetical statement but an offer.."
Deep down, part of her wanted him to turn her down, but for one very, very specific reason.
Such a fool he was for not seeing the comedy!
"Haha, I am filled with chortles! Though needest not think on such matters, for a chivalrous knight would not touch thee in such a manner!"
Giving her a gloveless pat on the back. He feels so barren.
