The demon's head rose somewhat as she recognized the figure atop the hill close to immediately. She took of her student's apparently excited horse as she slowed her steed to a stop as he approached. Her eye narrowed somewhat as she took in the elf's injured appearance and somewhat grim expression. The woman initially averted her eye from his gaze, she really didn't know what to say or what to do after what had happened between them.

A sort of awkward tension hung in the air, until the man spoke. That wasn't to say Ikari wanted it to be so, and more so that she didn't know how to even attempt to break the ice or try to fix what had been seemingly broken between the two. She couldn't hide the smile on her face or the laugh she let out to his tease, "Oh? I don't think your parents would be all that approving of a demon, besides you know an *Oh-so sophisticated* Drow woman with an utter *MASTERY* Of courting." She'd tease back, turning her gaze to meet his with a warm smile a mix of sarcasm and genuine relief in her tone as the elf broke the ice for her.

"But yes, if your parents won't execute you, I'd love too. Probably as a macen, but yes." She'd add on shortly afterwards, somewhat more seriously. Her eye narrowed somewhat as she inspected the elf more closely, letting out a sigh as she did so, "What did you do to end up beat up and sulky?" She'd question her student, tilting her head slightly, brow furrowing and smile dropping some what. There was a mix of genuine concern and a bit of frustration as she assumed the elf did something reckless without her around to stop him, something she'd probably blame on herself. She'd twist to better face him in the saddle, her body being more turned towards him.

Lucien chuckled, his smirk turning to a full smile. He was different compared to the past - if there was one person who could tell best, undoubtedly it would be Ikari. The curse seemed much more powerful, almost overwhelming. At the same time it felt steady. Perhaps her student had much greater mastery over it? Nevertheless his gaze towards his teacher had a kindness otherwise inexistent. His horse approached her. The elf placed his icy hand on hers, gently pulling the lead of her mount as his advanced forward. He did so to make her turn to follow his direction, feeling her rough fist in the meantime.

Once the vampire let go his steed slid to the side, allowing hers to properly spin.
*"A woman like her might seem appropriate for a night's endeavor, but that's as far as it gets. You, on the other hand, are different."*
As she suggested which form she should use, he clicked his tongue. *"My parents are well-known horse masters in the Irtutian League, Ik. They work with all sorts of people and are quite open-minded. Even if they weren't, I'd still prefer your real self over the macen - so that is how I'll introduce you to them."*

He remained silent after, only the clops of Roy's hooves audible. The elf turned with an arched brow as she questioned.
*"Ah, you know me. Can't stay away from trouble for too long. Nothing to worry about, my dear."* He grinned. The man seemed unusually happy to see her.
Lucien then turned away, a faint red color going to his cheeks. He spoke nervously. *"What worries is me is what's to come... I haven't met my parents for many years now. I wonder how they'll react, if they'll consider me a proper adult. I hope to conceal my vampirism somehow, but I'm afraid my siblings will catch me. They always exposed me in the worst way possible when I was a k—"* He paused. The man snickered and covered his face with a palm. *"What am I saying? That was when we were teenagers... Life must be different now."* He looked ahead with excitement.

*"I can't wait, Ik. To see them again. Ever since... Tamai... I've wanted to just see my family so much. To have mom's cooking, to talk history with dad. Hell, even my annoying siblings are amazing sometimes."* He faced her. *"And what better way to meet them than introducing them to the person dearest to me, right?"* A tinge of brown broke through the penumbra that enveloped his irises - revealing the same innocent man she had sympathized long ago.
Lucien opened his eyes wider, realizing that he had started babbling his inner thoughts like a five year old. He shook his head frantically.
*"Right, sorry. How have you been? I've wanted to hear about you for so long."*

She'd take note of her student's mastery, or if not that at least far better control of his vampirism, which brought even more of a smile to her face to see his improvement. The woman didn't mind his touch, no matter how cold it might've been. 

She'd listen intently to the vampire's speech about his parents, before shortly replying, "Just... Are you sure? Don't really want to cause a scene or get you disowned for bringing in some kind of monster." There was doubt in her voice, and her face also reflected uncertainty, a slight tilt of her head and raised brow.

The woman grinned as she listened to the man babble on about his family, warmth filling her face. She missed this side of him especially, the innocent stable boy she met that day that had ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time. She'd immediately meet his rambling with a light squeeze of his hand, removing her hand from the reins, "You'll be fine, I promise. You've matured and grown plenty. And if it makes you feel any better, I'll make sure none of them tease you too badly, alright?" She'd smirk as she replied, cutting him off in his somewhat worry filled babbling as well as teasing him lightly.

The demon was somewhat caught off guard by his final comment. She didn't expect such a heartfelt comment, and her eye widened and her demeanor dropped somewhat in surprise. If the crimson skinned woman was capable of visibly blushing, she might have. She'd take a deep breath to regain her composure in the next instance, somewhat flatly retorting with "Uh, Well, I'd love to meet them too!" It was the best she managed to coherently string together after being caught off guard by his comment without stammering.
.

She took the next moment to further regain her fortitude, letting out a light sigh as her smile returned. She'd reply quite simply with, "It's been alright, honestly not really the same without you though. I've met some people, some more worth looking into than others which we might find useful." She took on a more serious tone in response to his inquiry. 

She'd shortly follow up with, "Now, can we actually talk about what happened to you, or *Back then*, your choice on which to handle first." Her one eyed gaze met his, and her tone kept up it's seriousness. It was clear she wasn't going to let him blow off all the cuts covering his body as nothing, and she clearly didn't want to just leave what happened in the past between them to fester either.

The elf chuckled with a shake of his head. *"As persistent as ever, hm? Some things never change."* He cleared his throat and massaged his neck. The wounds were clearly getting better in a much shorter time period than they would before. *"I suppose I should start with the chronological order."* Lucien inhaled deeply and then sighed, easing the pressure built up in his chest. He seemed prepared, having thought about it for a while. *"I messed up hard, didn't I? I thought that maybe provoking you a bit would make you rage, make you take it all out and ultimately feel better. I didn't realize how gravely it would actually provoke you... Why didn't I, honestly? What the hell was I thinking? I still wonder about it to this day... Last time I didn't get a proper chance, but,"* The man faced the woman besides him, genuinely pouting. *"I'm sorry, Ikari. This was the one way I didn't want it all to go. Also, please don't apologize for what happened in the tavern. What you did was only fair and it is all in the past."*
