[ooc: from here]

[Even Maria had things she couldn't forgive herself for? Somehow, hearing that from someone like her made Alex just a little hopeful. She won't pry and ask what they were specifically, but..]

How..did you change?
declamando: (bowed head)

[personal profile] declamando 2018-01-25 10:41 am (UTC)(link)
It was hard, but I had some good friends alongside me who showed me the way. It can be difficult to see how to solve something like that yourself, but others can often see what you can't.

[It's why Maria wouldn't condone going something like that alone nowadays. It can be done to a certain extent, but there comes a point where what needs to be changed might be something you can't even see yourself.]
sing_for_me: (an important thing)

[personal profile] sing_for_me 2018-01-25 11:10 am (UTC)(link)
[That's what scared her though, others seeing. It was much simpler back where she was from since pretty much everyone knew what she was. While she didn't think any less of the people here, Alex didn't know how they would react, and she would prefer that they just knew her as she was here. Which...was probably still concerning considering some of the behaviors she's displayed.]

That's good..that you didn't face it alone.

[Alex would have liked to be there for her, just like Maria was doing now, but she was relieved that it wasn't something she faced without support. She reached over, squeezing Maria's hand gently.]
declamando: (all's well that ends well)

[personal profile] declamando 2018-01-26 12:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[Maria smiles a little at the gesture, but then turns her hand over so that she's holding Alex's as well.]

That's why I don't want you to face this alone either. Even if it takes time to open up, that support can be vital to moving on.

[Maria certainly doesn't think she'd be where she is now without the help of those who walked there alongside her. She might not have most of them with her here, but their lessons are still with her.]

[ooc: over flowfrom here]

[Alex didn't doubt that her mood would stay up if she spent time with him, how couldn't she? However, she didn't want to burden him with such a responsibility. That he was so determined to do so was a sweet sentiment though, and she pulled him closer in a gentle half hug, leaning her head a little towards him.]

Thank you, Goten. I could learn from you.

[She could feel his determination infecting her. What a ball of energy and sunshine he was.]

I'll do my best too! I want to do a good job for Temeraire too.

[Goten grins more at that and wiggles to get out of the half-hug so he can sit up and throw both his arms around her side. Why settle for a half hug when he's more then willing to give full hugs?]

I donno about that but if it means you'll hang out more with me and come by the bar and stuff then sure!

[Though the name doesn't ring any bells, he blinks slowly]

Who's Temeraire?

Someone I think you'd like. He's my shinki. I think you two would get along.

[He probably would like to go to Izumo's bar too. Maybe she could take him the next time she went over.]

I really wanna met him then! We can all be friends then. I'm glad you got a good shinki, Alex. If you ever need help with prayers and stuff you can ask me too! I've done lots and if Temeraire needs help with borderline stuff I can help with that too.

[He wants to help but its also excuses to hang out more! Yes please.]

[That was enough to curve her lips into a small smile.]

That's good.

[That was a small victory she would take.]

How have things been for you so far?

[She recalls that he wasn't a fan of being a god-- then again, with who he ended up taking over for, she wasn't too surprised.]

I actually took your advice. It isn't like I have to adhere to his moral code while I'm here so... I'm just doing things the way I do them.

[ Besides, it's a big 'fuck you, dad' once he gets sent back to his own universe. ]

It's helped a lot with getting used to this place so... thanks. I owe you one for showing me that approach.

[ He offers her a smile back, looking much better than earlier. ]

How have you been doing?
sing_for_me: (blush)

[personal profile] sing_for_me 2018-01-25 11:03 am (UTC)(link)
[ That took her by surprise. To not only be thanked, but to actually have her advice be helpful. ]

Eh? Really...?

[ She'd be lying if she said that didn't make her a little happy. ]

You don't..you don't need to owe me for that! I'm just glad it helped..

[ Her thumb rubs over the other, but she's smiling now despite still fidgeting.]

I've..been alright.

[ Which wasn't a lie. Sure there were a few bumps, like earlier, but all things considered she wasn't doing too bad. It helped that she had her shinki to keep her company, along with some others who happened to be around when she needed it.]

I've never been to a party like this before. I still feel a little nervous, actually.

[personal profile] in_praetego 2018-01-29 12:49 pm (UTC)(link)
It's got a hand in getting me kind of used to this role so... I'd say it's pretty big.

[ Sometimes things are just a matter of perspective, as he finds. The bit about her being alright does earn a nod back before he stares into the crowd again. ]

Parties like this are a little above my league. I've never really seen anything this fancy unless it was something my superior had a hand in.

[ Johann Faust V is a very very fancy man. ]

[Hearing that from someone else reassured Alex even more.

Ah, even her hand was gentle and warm, just like her smile.]

They might've forgotten that human beings would be wearing them. [Alex joked.]

[He would take some of the blame. Alex gave a resigned smile. Her hands were still shaky, but maybe this would take her mind off of things. She bows her head slightly at him in response.]

In that case...I would be honored. Um..just so you know, I am a beginner at this.

[So if she steps on your toes, don't say she didn't warn you.]

[personal profile] sing_for_me 2018-01-28 05:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[She smiles as she reaches out and slips her hand into his, taking a fee steps closer and placing her other his shoulder. The man really did have quite a large build, which the suit accentuated nicely.]

Yes, but you’re also a big softy.

[Alex teased a little. It wasn’t something she did often, but she felt comfortable enough with Archer to do so.]

[Now that she wasn't just staring at their feet, moving around felt more fluid and much more pleasant. It was actually starting to get fun for her. Who knew feeling your dress twirl when you spin felt so nice? The song was slow but sweet, the night air cool, and the balcony so peaceful--until she suddenly finds herself being hoisted up into the air and pressed against him.

C-Cú!?

[ooc: from here]

[Her yelp cuts through the ambience as they spin around, her hands gripping at his shoulders as she tries to keep herself steady. It's not like she thinks he'd drop her, but it sure felt like she could fall over.

She's a little above eye-level with him, so she has to tilt her head down to look at him, a lock of hair slipping over her shoulder. Her face was warming up, mostly because she was caught off guard, but also because she was pretty embarrassed by this. Really, who did stuff like this outside of films? He even managed to do it right towards the end, stopping at the last note of the song.]

...Then it would only be you dancing, wouldn't it?

[No, she's not pouting slightly at him.]

Oh no, what other options are left?

[ Excuse u! Films? What films? He's not watching films, might not be even entirely sure how to use the TV- he only saw stuff on air randomly because he happened to just be in the room. No, this was his original idea™ do-not-steal ]

Then just get rid of the uncomfortable heels, and no more hurt feet?

[ Caster suggests the destruction of those pretty shoes so lightly, but hey- those are just things. And it's surely not the shoes that make so pretty- he's also not putting her down just yet. It's all good, and all fun isn't it? Or maybe a part of him simply doesn't want to. ]
sing_for_me: (bump)

[personal profile] sing_for_me 2018-01-27 11:22 am (UTC)(link)
If I did that, I'd have to head home that way too.

[She didn't want to get them dirty. That would be a waste, especially since Izumo had helped with picking them.]

It's not like I can't dance for a little while longer...

[Alex was rather used to getting around the city in heels all day, so a bit more dancing wouldn't hurt. She wriggles a little in his hold, glancing towards the balcony doors in case someone were to come out.]

So you can put me down...!

Do you like them?

Hurt? Nah!

Most of the guys in charge I was thinking of, they might even feel bad for bumping into me! Fuujin for instance, I know him well enough. I'm not sure he'd apologize exactly, but... well, I'm sure I'd get a different reaction than a random god, for instance.

[She rubs at the back of her neck as she says it.]

Thanks for your concern, though!
