He smiles at her. <That is good. I do too.> He says softly. Looking at her. <I won't let him kill you.> he says with his mind. Looking at her. <I figured as much. That is the signature I got from him. It was more wild and untamed like that of a werewolf. That doesn't bother me.> he says calmly. He wasn't lying either. He wasn't bothered by him. <Yes. I am sure your brother can be vicious. But as I said...I will not let it detour me or goad me into a fight. I do not wish to be on your bad side.> he says. Looking at her in confusion. <Why would it drive me away? I am not very easy to drive away.> he says to her honestly. A happy smile crosses his face. <I feel the same about you. The really wanting to see more of you thing.> He explains. Looking at her. And smiles very warmly. <Not at the moment. I think we should save some mystery for the second date.><br/><br/>With that he broke the connection. Letting his power ebb out of her mind and back into himself. Looking at her. "Hmm? I am willing to do anything you want to do." he says softly. Looking at her. Watching her as they exit. "I would like that. Let us go back to your shop." he says softly. Looking at her happily though. Eyes shining with a sparkle that he hadn't had in his entire life. He looks at her. "I am an eager and willing student Essense." he says honestly. "Please...be my mentor. Let the studies begin." he looks at her. "I would love to meet Gargantua. I will believe you. I haven't met your plant friend yet." he says teasingly. Trying to make goofy and silly faces to get her to laugh. He looks at her. Shrugging.<br/><br/>"I do hope not. I don't know though. I haven't ever had such a barracade of things bombarding my mind and overloading my power circuits before. So I may undo a few power bindings...just to be safe." he says. And closes his eyes. Removing the shades once he had and looks at her. "Oh...great...not her..." he groans. Holding Essense's hand without realizing it. It just felt natural. "Please do not let her lie to you...she hates me and refuses to let me have anyone who will make me happy." he says to her.
