Emiri watched Jaakuna speak, and she didn't feel so nervous anymore. That wasn't to say it was all gone. She was really afraid of saying the wrong thing, really, as she didn't even know the right thing to say. As he took her hands in his, she made sure to listen carefully. The way he spoke sounded like Nadeline had told him exactly what to say, right out of one of her romance novels. She let out a small smile, though it faded as he spoke about how even if she didn't share the same feeling, he still wanted to talk about it. There was no avoiding it, she supposed. She looked up at him, getting closer to him for some reason. "[b][color=f6989d]Well...I'm all ears.[/color][/b]" She responded softly, looking up at him.

The trip was a silent one. Not that Grant wasn't one for conversation, but what do you talk about with someone from an enemy Empire? He let the silence stretch out; if Michel wasn't going to bother, neither would he. Well, at the very least he should have complimented the man's ship. Stylish, quick, just how he liked it. Once they arrived, Grant couldn't help but look around. Archades was as great as everyone said it was; as he had never had a reason to visit, this would be his first time. He followed Michel willingly, agreeing that the faster this was over with, the better. He admired the folk and buildings. It was much more modern then he had thought. It would seem as if Archadia on the whole was very modern, whereas Rozarria was more ont he traditional side.

Nonetheless, he followed Michel. Hopefully this little meeting would go well.
