He closed the door and locked it before turning and heading down the long hallway again. "People pay attention to me. Some attention I don't like, some attention is tolerable I guess. I don't know...I'm just usually always with my sister so I don't need anybody else's attention." Red felt a little weird talking with her like this. He didn't know why he was talking so much about how he felt. Usually he was quiet and didn't talk much at all. But without his sister around he really didn't have anyone else to talk to.
He lead her out of the hallway and across the front area of the temple towards a large door in the far wall from where they had exited the hall. Opening the door, he stepped to the side slightly. "Careful, it gets kind of dark from here." He pointed to the stairs that were going downward just to make sure she didn't go tumbling down them.

In the darkened corridors, Pulirium's golden eyes shone like stars in the night sky. Also, what light there was glinted off of her ring and earring. She thought about his opinion. She then figured that maybe the way he seemed was because of a deep missing of his sister. Perhaps it was one of those things that just had to happen. Sometimes siblings had to grow up; sometimes that wasn't easy for everyone involved. She thought maybe she would stick around and keep him company. Well, at least until his sister surfaced. She hoped it wouldn't be a long time, but she was entirely devoid of knowledge of the situation. This was a naive idea, but the righteousness inside of her compelled her to do it without reservation. She followed in close to him. "Don't worry. I'm not afraid of the dark. There is light within me that can shine in even the darkest of places." She nodded reassuringly to him. She was studying him, and in her heart, she was prepared to follow him not just around the temple.. but to just follow him period.

Red walked carefully down the long twisting stairway that lead towards the levels of the temple that were under the ground. The slight silence was kind of awkward but he brushed it off and concentrated on walking down the stairs. His mind wandered through different thoughts, some questioning about Pulirium then shifting to something else. He listened to her talk and snapped out of his own little world for a moment. "That's good that you're not afraid of the dark. Some people are." At her little remark about the light within her that could shine in even the darkest of places, he chuckled lightly and looked at her out of the corner of his eye. "Really now?"

"Yes. But, I don't like showing it off or wasting it. So, I never use it unless I really need to. But, I have never really needed it. Only once I had got myself lost. I wandered into a very dark forest. I couldn't see anything, and I started to cry and freak out. Then, it lit up. I am honestly not sure whether it's the dark or a great fear that triggered it. But, that is the only time it's ever happened. I guess that's some sleeping ability I'll have to learn how to develop adn control if I can. I bet it might come in handy in tight spaces." She followed him. "I like you Red. I am not sure what it is about you, but something in your aura is very enjoyable. You're such a comfortable person to be around. I love learning these things about your home." This was exciting. She liked having someone leading her around. It helped her not get lost. For all her other angelic senses, a sense of direction was not one of them. She was highly prone to getting lost. She hated it everytime it happened.
((lol. sorry if that light in darkness seems a ltitle too close to LOTR where frodo has that light of elendil))

((lol it's fine. 8D))
Red twitched his ears slightly as he listened to her talk. "Well, fear can trigger things deep inside us all." His tail flicked side to side as he continued walking down the long stair case. He raised an eyebrow and turned his head towards her, a serious look on his face. "You like me huh? Would you be willing to love me to?" His face was still serious as he turned his head to look ahead of them. He would see if he could catch her a bit off guard and was curious as to what kind of answer she would give him. Sort of like a test.

She just stood there for a minute not answering right away. She wasn't entirely sure she just heard him say what she thought he said. In all her wanderings, noone had ever said anything so direct to her. But, she was one to follow her instincts as she trusted them. She might not have a good sense of direction, but she had an excellent sense of character. She was usually drawn to people who had a deeper emotional part of them than what the average person would perceive of them. She liked this about people as it was like uncovering fossils or something. To her, a person who was deeply emotional was like when someone offers a present wrapped in a big box. And, each box finds another wrapped container until you find the real treasure. She was one to always enjoy these types of things. Made it seem like the gift giving was going on forever. Her eyes widened, and a very kind and moved tear flowed into her eyes. One tear went down her cheek, but she was still smiling at him. Of course..." She had other thoughts of things to say like.. What a surprise it would be to her if she discovered she already was starting to love him in her heart. Being a faekat and an angel, she was capable of great love. She also considered the beauty of loving someone. But, when Pulirium considered love. She didn't just think of love in terms of crushes or fleeting lusts. She thought of loving someone completely, not holding anything back. Honestly, committing herself to that kind of love seemed to hold both greatness and a little foreboding. "Red, you only have to ask me anything. I will freely give it to you." She followed down the stairs. It was generally easy not to fall since she more floated anyways; but she still wanted to be careful. She didn't want too sudden of movements to upset him since he was getting in a much more congenial kind of mood.
((i think this is now my second favorite only second to my WTAC rp with my tiffany and her comet. cuz that one is uber romantic...))

((8D i like romantic rps when i'm in the mood for em lol.))
Red closed his eyes slightly and stretched his neck a bit. It was kind of the answer he was thinking would come. Most angelics would often seek out gods to attach themselves to, so it was pretty much what he was expecting to hear. He knew from his mother a lot about Angelics and the like. Knowing that they gave up everything once they became Angeliques and were always expected to do what their god said. He didn't quite understand it and thought it silly but he just guessed that was the way it is. "So you would give up everything then? You're freedom of not being attached to anything. The freedom to do as you wish because I might not agree with what you were doing. I'm not sure if I'd want to do that if I were in your place....." He opened his eyes slightly as he continued down the long stairway. It seemed like it was takeing forever for them to get down these damn things.

"Well, if you just really want to know. I roam and wander a lot for since my existance because I haven't been able to find anything that makes me feel purposeful. I haven't really understood it. But, when visiting a library, I saw something about the gods. I was curious about temples and the like. But.. you know... even though it might seem like one gives up their freedom. What kind of love would a love be if one wasn't willing to make any kind of sacrifice for it? and, just because i would give up freedom doesn't change who I am. Where I go or what I do doesn't affect who I am. I am who I am. Nothing can change that. And.. it's not like you did just want me to love you, right? I mean. You just asked me what if ... the problem with hypothetical questions is that it's just that. It's hypothetical. I can think of what I would do or feel in a situation. However, clairvoyance and forseeing is not in my talents and skills. I cannot be certain of what I would do. But, I am honest. I am true. I am faithful. My faithfulness hasn't been tested yet. " She started to sit indian style fluttering down next to him. She looked at him.
"It's ok. You don't have to trust me. You have only met me today. I won't burden you with expectations. If anyone should be trying to compensate, it would be me. But, time is a friend to those willing. If you choose to not send me away from you, then who knows what will come." She thought of his question again a little longer. To love him.. The idea of doing something like this made her blush profusely and feel this deep wishing. She wondered if it were possible for her to even find such a thing. She knew love was out there. Some kats found it. Would it ever be there to find her? She wasn't sure one way or the other, but her primary concern in life was never herself. She was always putting the needs and wants of others before herself. That was just the kind of character she had.

Red smirked lightly, a soft breath of air passing through his lips quickly makeing a small 'huh' noise. He wasn't sure how to answer her question at that moment. Closeing his eyes, he continued walking the stairs, getting tired of the walk. He could of just as easily snapped his fingers and appeared where they were heading but he'd rather investigate a bit more into this Angelic.
He shrugged at her comment about time. Red wasn't sure if she'd stick around long enough for anything to progress anyway. Everyone around him seemed to leave or grow distant from him. So he didn't really expect her to hang around for long. "Who knows..." He said it softly and more to himself really.

She tilted her fluffae head to the side, and she leaned it on towards his arm as she floated up right along side of him. "Well, no worries Red. Let's just be in the now then, shall we? Noone knows what's waiting for us in the future. And, the past is all behind us. Let us cherish the present and the moments we are in. Life is more fulfilling that way." She relaxed back into her normal carefree way of being. She wasn't sure if it was ok or not ok for her to behave this relaxed and comfortable with him. Still, it was just a natural reaction she was feeling. Why fight it?

He opened his eyes slightly as she leaned her head on his arm. His eyebrow raised slightly but he didn't say anything. Not really minding it all that much. "Ok. Lets do that then I guess." He didn't really have much else to reply to her little speech with. His tail flicked side to side as he noticed the solid floor that was getting closer. Good, it seemed like they had reached the end of the stair way.

The lingering though of his question started to thwart her heart a good deal than she realized at first. He asked her if she would be willing to love her. She assumed he wasn't actually asking to her. But.. was he? Did she just miss something very important in some moment of absent mindedness? She wasn't sure. Her instincts were usually pretty good, but the clarity for this was just evading her. She figured it was probably maybe because it was too close to her for her to tell. Maybe her being with him was effecting him more strongly than she perceived or had imagined it would. She hadn't moved her head away from him. But, her eyes had started to just roam about studying all the stones and the walls, the floors. Her mind was eating away now. Was he opening himself up to her? Had she just threw aside a tender offering from him? Should she ask? but, what if she asked and he never meant that? Would he think she was just a silly girl who assumed too much? She closed her eyes. That conflicted feeling made her feel distressed. This moment. Had she just ruined it? She didn't know. What to do.. what to do.... Her hand reached for his arm. "What if I were to remain here... of my own free will. Whether you required it of me or not? It happens sometimes that with males... when they become married and attached to their wives... they begin to feel trapped. They feel like they are bound to this one person. That scares them from the commit. But..." Her voice was soft, gentle. It was searching for a truth. "I would think that pure true love... would make someone want to be bound to that one person. To love them with all you are... To be with them in such a way that you become one with them. That is real love. " Then she moved her head upright. She looked towards him. "It would be really typical if I just offer myself to you. but, anyone would offer themselves to a god really. The question is... would you want my love? and... would you want me all for yourself? I feel such an honor to be loved and desired so much that you would always want me with you and to never share me with anyone else. Such love and such honor... I have never really thought such a thing existed for me." In saying that, she said one of the greatests truths she ever shared with anyone. It was one of her deepest rooted fears above any other. The fact she wanted to always make others happy and love them. It was all for love. If she could keep giving love to others; maybe one day it would find her. For, what greater thing in life is there.. than to love and be loved in return.
((oh man... I have to go to bed soon. this is sooo good though. what a fun and rewarding rp))

((awwww. it is getting good lol.))
Red listened to her while she talked. His eyebrow raised slightly a few times as he thought her questions over. In all honesty he didn't know what to say, his little test was turned around on him it seemed. His tail gave a few idle flicks as he watched her out of the corner of his eyel. "Sometimes that does happen to males. But as it is with Gods they choose those to be their Angeliques who are ones they feel would be good for them. Someone that peeks their interest and is their idea of perfection." His ears twitched slightly, the vines wrapped around the one rustling softly. "You would think that. But I've heard it often times couples who can be deeply in love can be seperated. By conflicts of their own personal issues or one dissapears." He turned his head a bit so he could see her clearer and thought about her questions carefully. Sighing lightly he really wasn't sure how to answer at that point. Would he want her love and to have her all to himself? He would feel kind of selfish for keeping her all to himself but that's how it would be if anything did happen. "I would..." He kind of mumbled this slightly. Not really sure of what else to say. She was so open with what she thought yet he was more of a recluse on his feelings.

((ok! one more and then i go to bed. mrgreen so hard to go.. ))
She almost started to feel like this was completely surreal. How could something so random happen to her today? "Do you believe in fate?" She waited for a bit. She saw his eyes catching hers. Her eyes opened up like windows inside of her. Her truth and light were in them. Her soul was like a beacon of light. I marvel that I would just happen to come here. And, noone is here today. Just you and me... and, something feels very right here." She broke her gaze and looked off towards nothing in particular. She swallowed a deep breath. She reached down into the depths of herself from which flowed all hope and faith she had for anything. "I will stay here. For a while at least... it's up to you what you want to do with me. But, if I were to be even more honest, I cannot deny that I would have a great happiness if somehow I were able to connect with you the way I feel you connecting with me. In a deep inner place, where I know no matter the uncertainties. I have to follow this lead from my heart. My heart tells me that I should stay. I feel a strong trust towards you. I am willing to give that feeling time to prove itself." She touched the hem of her top. She was starting to feel a new and different type of awkwardness. She had opened herself up with a new type of honesty. It wasn't just helping someone else anymore. it wasn't just making someone else happy. This time, it was involving her. It was also her heart, ideas, and will on the line. But, something deep within her felt completely ready adn willing. It wasn't hard; it was just a little unnerving. It was almost like standing naked in front of him, not knowning whether he really wanted to look upon her or not.

Red looked at her with a slight curious look. "Do I believe in fate? I don't know. I usually believe that it is ourselves that create our own fate and the things we do effect it either positivly or negativly." That's what he'd always thought anyways, but he might be wrong. Who knew? He listened to her and smiled lightly. "I would like it if you stayed." He smiled a bit more at her words, he himself wasn't really that open and descriptive but maybe somehow she'd bring it out of him one day.
