[center][h3] [color=FFB6C1] What Is the Matter? [/color][/h3][/center]



[color=FFB6C1]"Your town sounds wonderful, I should like to go there someday. Perhaps meet your family,"[/color] She said, although the intonation in her voice was somewhere between honest and simply being polite as she continued to march the girl along. But the thought ended in a moment as her eyes narrowed in on the girls show of magic. [color=FFB6C1]"Why, in all my years, I can't say I've ever seen something quite like that," [/color] 

She lead the girl a few more steps before feeling a slight resistance by her lead. 

[color=FFB6C1]"What is the matter dear?"[/color] She asked somewhat distracted, as though her mind was on things other than the girl next to her. Her voice once again in  that weird place between polite and genuine. The only sign she gave that she had any care in the conversation at all, was by the way she tightened her hold on the girl ever so slightly.  [color=FFB6C1]" I just thought it would be nice to take a walk as we get to know each other better. We will be very close for quiet a while.  But you need not worry dear, I was just thinking it'd be nice to tour the gardens, much more interesting than our dorm  there are a number of moonblossoms that are in bloom....But if you rather we made our ways to our dorms, that can also be arranged,"[/color]

The girl interesting, but then weren't all vampires? And mages. Sure this place wasn't like home, everything was far too clean and symmetry. There were no work tools piled every which way. No half finished projects spilling from one of a dozen different sheds. No chickens scampered under foot, no farm animals called from the distance. Everyone was (well..mostly everyone) well groomed and sweet smelling. The vampires especially seemed almost above it all. Not in a rude way, but in a way that expressed an otherness. 


[color=FFDAB9]"Liz then,"[/color] He said, his smile even larger as he took the girls hand with a little bit too much enthusiasm, and shaking it warmly, tipping his head to the side so that his bang shifted slightly to the left. If he had known that he disturbed the girl's thought, or that she had any concern about him having spoke with her, he didn't show it.   [color=FFDAB9]" Yeah this place is great. I've never seen such a large or beautiful buildings. They don't make them like this at home.  It is all so... nice," [/color] He held the silence for another moment before carrying on. [color=FFDAB9]"But I suppose you are used to places like this, don't all vampire live in giant castle  that houses entire colonies of mages to--"[/color] He stopped himself on a dime. [color=FFDAB9]"Ah, what I mean is, you are probably used to this kinds of stuff," [/color] 

He kept his smile going. [color=FFDAB9]"I'm excited to see our dorms though, it'll be nice to have a bit of space for myself for once. It'll be weird though, to be without sun--I mean, but your probably used to that," [/color]  He paused a minute, [color=FFDAB9]"Also, I swear I don't always say 'probably used to that' it just seems like the phrase of the night,"[/color]
