Iorveth.

I can't find him. It is as before, is it not?

He will reappear again as he always does. He will apologize that he had disappeared in the first place. He would not leave me on my own, would he? No, of course not... elves do not abandon other elves. That is not in our nature.

Is that not right?

Comments

[barebacking]

Maybe a little shorter. But no less handsome.

[ Yaha, himself, is six foot but that is only thanks to his six-inch heels. His shoulders give a very small shrug before he leans forward to smile more at him. Then pulls back to gesture to the door. ]

Shall we?

[bolthead]

[Barry freezes at the compliment, a very 'deer in the headlights' expression present on his face. Of all the things to say, that was not what he was expecting. He can't even mutter a 'thank you' at it, too busy being embarrassed, so he just shuffles awkwardly inside and instead says meekly:]

That, uh, yes, let's go in.

[He's wondering if he shouldn't be starting to regret this outing.]

[barebacking]

[ Hm? Is he not used to be complimented?

That is a surprise.

The elf stares at him for a time, but decides to be kind instead of cruel in picking at the response that he sees. He turns away to take the three steps to the door before pulling it open for Barry to enter first. ]

I would hate to enter and find you standing out here five minutes later. [ Yaha decides to be kinder in teasing him and his lateness. ]

[bolthead]

[There's a wince in reply to that.]

I would have come in. I usually do, since I end up being a little late most of the time.

[Admittance of his bad habit? Probably not the best thing to do, but he'd rather come clean about the whole thing than have Yaha learn from repeated experience.

He makes his way inside, surveying the surroundings.]

Do you come here often?

[barebacking]

Oh, so it is a habit?

[ He laughs a little, as he wonders the reason for why it is.

Stepping in after, he carefully closes the door. Not that it wouldn't swing shut on its own, but he'd rather it not make a loud bang. Seems unfortunate sound. Loud noises and the vexations to people's souls, yes? ]

I do not come here often. I'm afraid that this is the first time I've been here. I just... I have learned where things are around me. It comes from wandering around the same neighborhood over and over, I suppose.

[bolthead]

[Barry can only sigh at that.]

Unfortunately.

[But let's not talk about his bad habits! There are far better - and probably safer - subjects of conversation at hand, including Yaha's own meandering habits.]

Why not step inside once in a while? I'm sure many of these place are interesting if you take the chance.

[barebacking]

[ He turns to Barry. His hands slide behind his back to hold them at the wrist. ]

Oh, well... I worry people won't like me. It's nice to go place with those I know who like me rather than those that may not... and be enclosed in one place.
