Pretty Please (PoisonousIvee/Mr.Aznable)

[PoisonousIvee]

"Just...your company..." He said. She probably wouldn't go for it, he was terrifying.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She made a soft noise. “Oh, I see.. sort of like a guide to the surface?”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

If that's what it takes.
"If you would be kind...? It's all too foreign to me..."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She nodded. “As long as you won’t get in trouble..”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He shook his head gently, "I'll be fine."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She nodded. “Well, I look forward to being your guide.” She said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He smiled, "Thank you, really."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Of course.” She said, bowing respectfully. Perfect height. He could almost see down her dress like this. “Until next time, Gio.”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He shook hard as he stared, calming down the instant she righted herself, "Until next time."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She smiled snd headed back to her cart, not noticing him staring the whole time.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He didn't move a muscle as he watched her go, wanting it to be next time now.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

Soon enough, he was alone.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He exhaled and grabbed the wagon, dragging it back into the sea. He thought about seeing her again and being close to her and he struggled not to smile.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She was there early on the day they agreed, simply waiting for him.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He came out of the sea, barely breaking the surface tension of the water, and grinned widely, "Sereina...!"

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She smiled. “Hello, Gio..!” She said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He moved over, a bundle of semi wilted looking water plants in his hand. He presented the to her with a smile, only to frown when he saw they were sagged, "For you-! Oh..."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Oh, thank you..!” She said, smiling as she reached for them. “If I dry these, they’ll look lovely..!”

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He smiled again, "I'm glad you like them." Terrma was always trying to give Gio various plant life to woo him, maybe it would work with Sereina?

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“They’re wonderful, thank you..” she said.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"So, where will we go first...?" He asked, inching closer.

 

[Mr.Aznable]

“Well.. what do you want to know about the surface?” She asked.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

"Everything.." He replied, "I have only known the sea.."

 

[Mr.Aznable]

She made a noise. Not an easy start. She took him around, showing him more isolated spots first, away from any pockets of humanity. She figured it would be better to ease him in that way.

 

[PoisonousIvee]

He pretended to pay attention - a craft he mastered dealing with Terrma - as he simply watched her. He just loved looking at her, couldn't stop if he tried.
