The boy rambled, and quite frankly, Rose dazed out in the middle of it. She was staring off to a fighting dog and cat behind the boy, grinning as the dog failed to win against his opponent. Finally coming back to his rambling, she rolled her eyes, and looked to his eyes, listening to every word that he had said. "Do you honestly think The King would approve of this? I admit your clever enough to figure out who I was, but clearly not enough to understand the depths of the situation. I don’t get what I want, I have to give what they want.” Did he really think she was that stupid, or did the girl just know more about his land that he had? never the less, she gave him the truthful rundown of this situation.
A cocky grin appeared on the girl's lips as she held up one finger. "One thing, there is no king for this land. I know how the royalty doesn't have to be related here. You probably don't even know where your father is, do you?" Shaking her head, and laughing, the girl turned, offered for him to follow, and effortlessly kicked off of one of the stands to get up onto the roof. She wouldn't dare use her flying abilities until the acid had time to fade, which would be a few hours. so she just used her legs to simply jump up, rolling her eyes as the boy struggled to get to the roof.
It took him a couple minutes to catch up to the girl's slow pace, but when he did arrive the prince spoke. “ So, were are we going?” Where were they going? Well, out of town. She wasn't going to stick around some place where drunken slobs hung about. Never even taking a moment to glance to him, Rose spoke, pausing next to one of the city walls that towered over the two. "Outside of the city." Kicking her toe into the wall, and running up about ten feet, the girl perched herself up on one of the wooden supports that stuck out of the wall. "But if the little prince is afraid he doesn't have to come."
She quickly made her way up the wall without effort, and perched herself on one of the highest points, looking down below. Turning around to face the boy, Rose crossed her hands across her chest, and pushed herself backwards off of the wall, landing perfectly on the ground with a crouched position, her left arm out, and her right had lightly touching the soil below. Standing, the girl brushed a golden lock behind her ear again, and walked on as if it was nothing, expecting the boy to keep up with her slow pace.

"One thing, there is no king for this land. I know how the royalty doesn't have to be related here. You probably don't even know where your father is, do you?" She probably thought she was so clever, attempting to subvert him on a commly known fact. Yet, once again, she haden’t the detaile knowledge he had to effectively argue the point “ You do understand,” he spoke when he caught up with her on the roof. “ That Father is indeed an honorary customerly given in the situation. Besides, my father is the Royal Archmage, Thomm Rampart. It was my mother, the lazy drunken slob he was only stuck with through arrangement, who abandoned us after I was born. This woman was obviously still racial superior to him, concidering the rate at which dragonic ablates expressed themselves, but he would surpase her at some point in a few years.
They stopped. Outside the city, she said? “ No problem,” he took a quick chance to strech as she went for the pomp and ran the wall. She’d get a pulled muscle for sure at this rate. “ Love the place, gets me out of the castle.”
"But if the little prince is afraid he doesn't have to come."
“Afraid?” he spat as he watched her needlessly show off, “ You humor me. I’ve seen things you can never dream of, had to suffer through things you never could. Try being me for a day sometime.”
He leaped up effortly, reptilian muscle mass kicking in a propelling him forward with minmal effort. He landed strongly, and diden’t break his stride. He simply used the rebound to knock of a bit more of her head start. He took a few solid leaps, and then matched her pace.
“ So, why you got a death sentence?” he asked, trying to drum up a tale. He loved tales.

The girl had pulled out a little bit of his past. A small nod, and she effortlessly pulled herself up onto the wall, looking back and making a small comment. “Afraid?” He spat out while watching her stand on one of the supports. “ You humor me. I’ve seen things you can never dream of, had to suffer through things you never could. Try being me for a day sometime.” She had done worse, and seen worse. The boy was locked away with his little job thinking he had seen the whole world, thinking he had seen the worst if had to offer. Any one of his disturbing stories, and the girl could most likely top it without a care in the world. It wasn't hard, all she needed to do was pick out one of her little wandering stories, and tell him the end.
"And what exactly is the worst thing that you have ever seen? the worst thing you have ever done?" A light roll of the eyes, and she made her way up the rest of the wall, and dropped down the other side. By the time that the boy had caught up to her, she had already been half way through the field, slowly wandering around the occasional bush, and keeping her step silent. She was good at the whole quite thing, but didn't use it often for when didn't need to.
“So, why you got a death sentence?” that, was a funny story. A laugh escaped though her glazed lips as Rose shook her head. "Well, I was teasing the prince of another kingdom, making him want things he wouldn't get, and eventually he touche my ass." Her eyes shifted to the prince, and she said a single serious sentence. "Nobody touched my ass. Continuing the look forward and walk on, the girl continued with her brief story. "So he got mad when I kicked him, you know where, and he put a death sentence on me, instead of the fact that I killed the bar tender right in front of him." A light laugh, and she shook her head, and them paused in front of the forest. "And the demon I have to pay off for getting me out of the mess only takes gold."

"And what exactly is the worst thing that you have ever seen? the worst thing you have ever done?"
“ That,” he responded. “ Is a long, long tale. You think I just sit on my ass all day, spewing forth words and eating sweetmeats? Wrong. I was picked a prince becuese the monarchy is expected to solve every major problem in the kingdom, and those of any other nation we have or want diplomatic relations with. Basiclly, if we’re not NEEDED in the capital, we’re all out killing something big or working at some disaster site. But, to make a long story short, I killed my own great-grandfather, a giant thunder breathing wyrm. Happy?” Honestly, if he put any real effort into this, he’d be miles in front of her, but he loved to tease people too.
"Well, I was teasing the prince of another kingdom, making him want things he wouldn't get, and eventually he touche my ass." Was the next answer she gave. Ah, the crazy woman. No self control, he could tell that.
“ Why did you tease him then? Surly you had enough foresight to see what was coming?” he grinned cockly.
"So he got mad when I kicked him, you know where, and he put a death sentence on me, instead of the fact that I killed the bar tender right in front of him." To answer that, he simply said “ Relly? Have you no subtly woman?” She laughed slightly, and so did he. Then he had a thought.
She had said "Nobody touched my ass.”
Fine, but she never said….
“ Come on,” he pushed her from behind and sped up just a tiny bit, making sure to hit high. “ Lets get going, shall we?”

A long tale? He killed his grandfather? Well, that wasn't much. He didn't have everyone he ever knew and loved slaughtered before his eyes, he didn't feel the trickling of their warm blood running down his skin. And that wasn't even the worse thing that Rose had seen. There was so much worse. The worse thing that she had done? Well, that was a long story leading up the the slaughter of innocents. She never talked about that time, due to it being to hard of a memory. First learning to be a fallen angel was hard, and at the point that she went crazed, she had no control over the situation.
“Why did you tease him then? Surly you had enough foresight to see what was coming?” A light laughter picked up from the girl as she covered her mouth. "Well, it was because I like to see how far people will go." Lowering her hand, and crossing it back along her other arm, the girl smiled up to the prince. She had actually grew to not think as badly of him, as she had at first. Now, he was just another person on the street that she was able to joke around with, and not really do anything about what he was doing.
“Really? Have you no subtly woman?” She laughed, and continued on. “Come on,” The boy had said while pushing her lightly. “ Lets get going, shall we?” A small nod, and Rose sped up her pace, to what was her a slow jog, and what was to others a bolting run. She was fast, due to her species. the girl ran without word until the two had made it quite the ways out of town, a few miles, and she was satisfied. Now, the fun began. Now, she could toy with him, without any troubles from his body guards.
Pausing, and looking over her shoulder, she smiled, and said a simple phrase. "So who will begin the game?"

"Well, it was because I like to see how far people will go." Well then, she certainly had a bit in common. At least, they did once a week. The noble inside him was crying for him to stop, for the harm he may be doing to the kingdom. But even if she did like it, the difference between the two of them was that he knew not to get himself stuck. Even now, he had a dozen contingency plans for how to excuse himself if things got ugly. Now she smiled at him, sincerely this time. Was she just teasing him again? Wouldn’t judge, wouldn’t judge.
Then they ran, neither her nor him seeming to exert much energy. They were going farther and farther, and by now even the loftiest heights of the palace were just glints in the distance. Then, she stopped ( behind him I assume, so she’s looking at his face?)
"So who will begin the game?"
Well, this was a new situation. Subtly was his strong suit, and he prided himself in the fact that every female had teased thought it their idea. Now, he had to adapt. The whole thought process took a fraction of a second.
“Ladies first,” he bowed. This might give him a hint, but it wasn’t as if they weren’t on equal terms in that regard

The girl had made her way in front of the boy, and paused, only to look over her shoulder, and speak. “Ladies first,” Oh well wasn't he just the gentlemen. Laughing, Rose turned, and talked over to the man, lightly pushing him back into a tree. "Well arn't you just the gentleman?" She was going to see how far she could bring this, without him touching her. It depended on what she felt like doing, maybe to anger the royal men she would carry on, not letting the prince return home on time.
Brushing her fingertips against the man's face, and she softly whispered into the man's ear, letting her lips brush his temple. "Do you like to get close, Prince?" She still hadn't know his name, not really caring. Right now, was the time to play, and see what the boy would take. For now, the girl lightly brought her hand up his chest, and let it rest on his right shoulder, keeping the same cocky smile upon her lips all the while.
((sorry for the bad post from me))

Lightly pushing him back into a tree. "Well aren’t you just the gentleman?" Well, what had she expected; some olf being hand picked as Kaharini’s next king? “ I do believe that would be the proper term, although I highly doubted one of your standing would use it. The word big man comes to mind.” He already heard what a tease she was, and that this was just a game. She would have to do far better then that.
She put her finger onto his face, and placed her mouth near, so very near the side of his head. "Do you like to get close, Prince?" she whispered, her airy voice massaging his inner ear. Yet, he did not move, knowing quite well that the game would stay on. He’d draw her in, then win in one blow.
“ Well Little Lady,” he grinned in a more amused then cocky manner. “ It seems you do., at least. I for one find it most amusing, to acutely touch. Yet, it’s also amusing to be touched.”
Then she took another step down the line. She ran her hand barley atop his chest, and all the way up to his shoulder. Nice try, nice try, but it takes a bit more then that to beat a experienced opponent. “ Well, I didn’t think a girl like you would take the support,” his smile shifted to friendly as her same face moved in.

“Well Little Lady,” He had began with a cocky grin, one she was familiar with. “ It seems you do, at least. I for one find it most amusing, to acutely touch. Yet, it’s also amusing to be touched.” She laughed ever so lightly, and nodded in confirmation. "Indeed." He hadn't moved, but that didn't prove anything. The girl had another trick up her sleeve, one that she could get him with, but the girl wasn't going to use it just quite yet. Her touch was light, and warm. Nothing like the sort could have been found in another location, such exotic gentleness.
“ Well, I didn’t think a girl like you would take the support,” He peaked her interest. Pushing him down the tree so he was in a sitting position, and she was crouching over him, setting back on his legs. "Take what support?" A brow had been raised, and the girl obviously confused. Just what did this boy mean? He was a strange one.

"Indeed." It was a pleasant sensation, being touched as such. Obviously such things were strictly forbidden in the place, and non of he ladies on the street had pulled in had this kind of skills. He might just have to try this time, now wouldn’t he.
Then she did something totally unexpected. She sat on him. How was that supposed to make any sense? Yet, she seemed to be just as confused as he was, judging from the puzzled look on her face. "Take what support?" she had asked. Was she really that oblivious? “I’ll just let you incubate that one,” he stated with a light yawn. He had fun on these nights, but they still make one tired. “ After all, you’re a grown woman. I’m sure you’ll figure it out soon.”

“I’ll just let you incubate that one,” Just what in hell's name did the boy mean? She hadn't a clue. The girl wasn't usually questioned, or given facts... Well, usually the people didn't say much, other than attempt to sway her to see things their way. it wouldn't work. “ After all, you’re a grown woman. I’m sure you’ll figure it out soon.” Her eyes narrowed, staring to the man. She wouldn't get it, the girl never got these things. "I am flattered you think I would get it, but I assure you I won't until few weeks later. Might as well save your time from having to sit here and just tell me already."
She let out a long sigh, and crossed her arms. The girl really would sit there until she figured it out, or the boy told her. Yet for now, she just blankly stare at him, awaiting a response.

"I am flattered you think I would get it, but I assure you I won't until few weeks later. Might as well save your time from having to sit here and just tell me already."
Well, apparently he had overestimated her. As she sat their staring at him, still awkwardly occupying his legs, all she did was cross her arms and give him the same blank look she had every time she lacked her cocky smile.
“Oh, I’m sorry. We are playing a teasing game, aren’t we?” he took a deep breath after he spoke this. “Just decided to take my turn. Honestly, so far you aren’t doing so well. Must be hard, actually going after something that bites back?”
“By the way,” he moved in on her face as he said this. “What is it you’re wearing? The smell is divine.”

“Oh, I’m sorry. We are playing a teasing game, aren’t we?” An annoyed look instantly occupied the girl's gaze, causing her to cock her head to the side. "Is it Cana? Is it really?" By that point she had remembered hearing his name, and found it amusing how he didn't even so much as know the first letter to hers. It was a good position for her, the girl straying far off topic. She often did so, when asked questions. Made her ramble, and it looked quite cute to any guy that was watching, child like, but she didn't realize it. The teasing was her dark angel side, yet, her nice side was the one that loved to just ramble. At the point, she had converted to this side.
“Just decided to take my turn. Honestly, so far you aren’t doing so well. Must be hard, actually going after something that bites back?” "Well, actually yes. It is complicated, seeing how I am usually all coming back perfectly, but right now I have no clue what to say!" A small shrug, and the girl lightly pulled in her legs in to where they were more snug against his pants. A light smile was glazed onto the girl's lips, showing how she glanced around the forest, and then back to the man.
He had shifted, and said a simple amount of words. “By the way,” them man had started, catching Rose's attention. “What is it you’re wearing? The smell is divine.” At first she had only caught the fist part, causing her to look down. "Well, I am wearing black leather pants, a leather top, and it's all covered with my dad's old jacket..." She finally caught onto the whole 'smell' part, and them lightly laughed. "Oh gosh, you mean my perfume!" Covering her mouth as she laughed, the girl shrugged, and spoke. "Just a bit of rose perfume. Took forever to get a hole of, but I gots it."

Ok, with that little move he knew she was switching tactics. Obviously, she had take a long time to realize that he wasn’t that kind of guy.
"Is it Cana? Is it really?” her voice had raised a bit. More, childlike. So, she was trying the cute approach and attempting to tap into what nurturing instincts he had, eh? Nice tactic, he had used it once or twice on the streets. Yet, he found it slightly more amusing then her earlier attempts, and it would be twice as hard to counterstrike now. Even as she started, he had to actually start focusing a bit on diverting his thoughts. Not too much, just enough for him to notice.
“Yes, actually. Prince Cana, Mage Son of Kaharini. Beg pardon, but I don’t quite believe I’ve caught yours?”
"Well, actually yes. It is complicated, seeing how I am usually all coming back perfectly, but right now I have no clue what to say!" Now, this was decently a change. Cana simply couldn’t help smiled. Her confusion, her honesty, they were just so… adorable. She shrugged, and then just came in tighter on him. So she hadn’t quite given up yet.
“I suppose I may just have to go easy on you then, little lady.” He chuckled slightly. “Seeing as you may need some more time to think.” He was avoiding much physical movement on purpose, as it would only push her along.
"Well, I am wearing black leather pants, a leather top, and it's all covered with my dad's old jacket..." “Um, that wasn’t exactly…” "Oh gosh, you mean my perfume!” it finally clicked as she went back to laughing. Seriously, she might be laying this on a bit too thick. "Just a bit of rose perfume. Took forever to get a hole of, but I gots it."
“Ah, roses. That explained a lot…” he started to go off into a very well worn and slightly taboo flashback, but stopped himself just as things were getting blurry. “A nice flower. My sister used to wear that. That is, until she was sent to patch up relations with the Camaran Duchy out west. Hasn’t come back yet, but it’s only been two weeks.”
“Seriously though,” he wished he wasn’t saying this. “Why all the leather? It just doesn’t’ CLICK, you know? You could do far, far better. Especially with that face.”

“Yes, actually. Prince Cana, Mage Son of Kaharini. Beg pardon, but I don’t quite believe I’ve caught yours?” By then the girl had already began to ramble, not noticing the man's words. She lightly moved in her legs, expecting her knees to touch, but rather her legs were stopped by Cana's legs. She looked up into the tree above, and shifted lightly in her coat. It was heavy, but she didn't care. It was all that she had left of her family, and the coat meant everything to her. So even when the fallen angel side had taken over, the girl wore it, despite the spirit's personality.
“I suppose I may just have to go easy on you then, little lady.” A small nod, and she laughed. "You were trying? At what?" A small playful tilt of the head, and Rose smiled as she uncrossed her arms. “Seeing as you may need some more time to think.” A small laugh, and the girl spoke. "At least I am not afraid to touch you." She quickly rubbed her hands over his shoulders, arms, and stopped on his face, softly shaking his head in a slow back and fourth movement. "You just don't even do anything!"
“Um, that wasn’t exactly…” A small pause, and Rose quickly moved moved her hands to her mouth. Laughing, the girl, explained how she was wearing Rose perfume. “Ah, roses. That explained a lot…” Rose paused, and stared to him, her eyes blazing with wonder. “A nice flower. My sister used to wear that. That is, until she was sent to patch up relations with the Camaran Duchy out west. Hasn’t come back yet, but it’s only been two weeks.” Quickly moving her hands down, and resting them in between her legs, not realizing how her hands were resting on the man's legs. "Really? I just figured that it would be ironic," She lifted her hands, as if to point out an imaginary map's location, and continued. "Seeing how my name is Rose, and the perfume is Rose."
“Seriously though,” Cana began, “Why all the leather? It just doesn’t’ CLICK, you know? You could do far, far better. Especially with that face.” A light blush glazed over the girl's cheeks. She Pulled herself slightly away from the man, and began to explain herself. "Well you see, usually I am not really who I am... If that makes any sense. The fallen angel part of me usually takes over, making me wear things like this. I usually wear a baggy shirt, and some quick pants..."
Opening her jacket, the girl pulled out two articles of tightly folded clothing. "These ones, excuse me for a second." Rose quickly jumped up, and slid behind a few trees, hoping the man couldn't see her. Once she was satisfied with the idea that he couldn't, she quickly changed her clothing, leaving the leather ones where she changed. A light weight shirt, white, and some dark pants, and the girl was good. She quickly tied the coat around her waist, and slid out from behind the trees, setting in front of the man as she came out. "See?"
