[color=F9F8E8]Location:[/color] Riverbloom, Daisy Bakery [color=F9F8E8]Interactions:[/color] Aurora [@mole], Rowan [@GingerBobOh] [/color][/center] [hr] [color=gray]Even though Zora was no stranger to moving her body, Rowan's training regime was, ironically enough, just inhuman. While she did understand that his reasons were good, as he wanted her to be capable of defending herself against any possible threat, His daily, spartan training regime were exhausting her quicker than she would have imagined. Due to that, she was quite grateful to Aurora's suggestion for them to take a break and visit a local bakery called 'Daisy', to rest, relax and eat some cake. [color=F9F8E8]"No need to hold yourself, sister. Words of praise are always welcome."[/color] Zora replied with a chuckle. Her strong Jamaican accent drawing even more attention towards her, especially when coupled with her rather... 'exotic' attire. Upon being asked by Aurora about her thoughts, Zora had to think for a bit, until she turned towards her again. [color=F9F8E8]"While I have learned much about this land in the last few days, I feel there is still much to learn about it... [i]Especially[/i] about magic."[/color] Zora said, with a thoughtful expression. [color=F9F8E8]"There is a connection between magic, this land and its elements... I felt it before, when I arrived in Avalia, but now I can feel it a better. The pull I feel towards water, towards the ocean... It is much stronger here than it was in my past life."[/color] Zora said with an enigmatic expression. Just as she finished replying to Aurora, she heard Rowan's complaints about their small, and [I]very needed[/i] break. Thankfully, Aurora seemed to be on her side, at least regarding giving her a break from Rowan's spartan training regime. Rowan would quickly notice how a dangerous glint seemed to flash in Zora's eyes when he mentioned that she would have to learn more to be of 'use'. [color=F9F8E8]"To use one another... It is a [i]very[/i] dangerous type of relationship to have, Rowan. One never knows who is truly using who... And for what they are being used for..."[/color] she said, with an rather dangerous smirk. Despite the rather 'subtle' words Zora used, it was undeniably a reminder that she would not accept being used, ordered or being made into a puppet. Despite having spent only a week together, both Aurora and Rowan would already have a very good idea of Zora's personality and they would know that truly 'taming' the woman would be next to impossible. [color=F9F8E8]"Besides... I was able to keep up with you rather well in our sparring sessions, despite the cruel, spartan training regime you have been putting me, a delicate woman, into, wasn't I?"[/color] Zora asked, her expression quickly turning back to her usual one and the dangerous smirk giving way to a playful, teasing grin. [color=F9F8E8]"You should let me at least eat a slice of this wonderful cake as a reward, you know?"[/color] Zora said with a chuckle, giving another bite into her cake as she gave a playful, mischievous wink towards Aurora, having noticed the stare she gave towards Rowan that caused him to sit down and enjoy his cake instead of complaining. [color=F9F8E8]"This 'transmission bracelet' of yours, quite an impressive thing, isn't it? To communicate with one another instantly, regardless of the distance. The captains back on my world would gladly give an eye and a leg for this ability."[/color] Zora said with a chuckle, imagining the utter chaos that such bracelet would bring to the sea.[/color]
