"It isn't the fact that it is hazardous, it is the fact of keeping temptation from the eye, and so children don't see adults without their clothes. Children and adults have... the same anatomy yet it is... smaller for children compared to adults..."<br/><br/>Lore's brows furrowed, she was wondering if she was making any sense to him, but she was more so feeling ashamed that she was having to explain all this to him, it wasn't one of the topics that she was comfortable with. Pursing her lips she drove in the silence, apart from Hiko's constant rambling but she didn't mind it too much. Her brow rose up before she spoke to him again.<br/><br/>"I insist that you wear clothes because of the cold as well as keeping me from starring a hole into your body."<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">The truth is, if he wasn't wearing clothes you would jump his bones. You can't lie to me.</span>Lore shook her head just a bit and drove onward, that voice and Hiko was going to be the death of her, she was planning to mentally strangle that voice, and if Hiko didn't keep his clothes on she was going to do so much worse to him. There was the slightest hint of a blush in her cheeks, ashamed of the depictions that her mind was coming up with, and all of them were of him taking her over and over again.<span style="font-style: italic">Stop that!! You shouldn't be thinking like that!</span>She halted all of her thoughts as she side glanced in his direction.<br/><br/>"You don't find no one appealing to your eye back home? Maybe here on earth you can find something that appeals to you...."<br/><br/>She let it trail off as she considered it, if seemed he was discounting her as being appealing, which in a sense bothered her yet... hadn't that been her own thought by telling him to not talk or ask questions about her? Lore looked straight ahead, keeping her eyes to the road before turning off to follow a winding path further up the mountain trails. Snow now coated the ground, some if was dusted in parts while others were heavily patched. The dusted areas was due to the sun shining on the snow, making it melt away, the heavily patched areas, came as they went further up the mountain. There was thoughts as she listened to him, the white stuff only made her come to one of two conclusion, snow seeming to be the more likely answer.<br/><br/>Pulling over to the side of the road Lore put the car in parked and unfastened her seat belt, turning slightly in her seat to look at Hiko eye to eye now. She starred for some time as she tried to decide what to say, being parked on the side of the road and looking at him eye to eye seemed to make things harder. Moving her eyes to the background behind him, that seemed to help as she spoke to him.<br/><br/>"The white stuff, is snow. It is cold and fluffy at times unless it is melted and refroze again, in which case it turns to ice. Open the door and get out, go look for yourself. We have some time to kill before getting up to the cabin."<br/><br/>She didn't have the intention of getting out, but she was curious as to what his first reaction was, so in that alone she got out of the car, taking the keys with her. She moved around the back of the car, coming to his side were she kicked up a little snow at the side of her passenger window.<span style="font-style: italic">What are you thinking? He will think your crazy if you keep this up.</span>There was a bit of laughter to come as she kicked a second batch of snow at the side of her car, daring him to get out. It had been a long time since she had been back home, and even longer since the last time she had gotten to play in the white stuff.<br/><br/>"Come on now, don't be scared..."<br/><br/>Her lips had a smile as she seemed to remember a small childhood memory from this little side stop now. If this was what the week was going to consist of... maybe she would live through it, though how far into her past memories did she really want to go? Lore's hands slipped into her pockets, they became rather cold quickly from just standing in the snow, her feet through the boot were cold, but she was use to that part. Once he got out of the car, she thought of everything else he had said in the car. There had been a reason for everything she did.<br/><br/>"I helped you out of the cage cause freedom seems to be a big thing to you, and you are right... even though you are not from earth you still have just as many rights as we do. So I am helping you escape from the cage for a week after that... I haven't a clue what I will do or what the Admiral will say when he finds out."<br/><br/>That was a scary thought as she said it out loud, but this was the point of no return now, she couldn't go back.  Her head tilted to the side as she raised her brow yet again at him, were earth's cars that fascinating to him? Why would that be so intriguing to him? Her eyes looked pass him back to her car, biting on her lower lip as she debated whether she would want him to poke and prod at her 'Sweety'. It seemed to be harmless in thought but...<br/><br/>"I can show you a little about my car, if you would like to know about it... it isn't much though."<br/><br/>Lore looked back to him when she said this, trying to decide if that was in both their interest but, she couldn't be so certain right yet.  Lore moved closer to him taking his hands to feel how cold they were, they were pretty cold, but he would survive for the most part. Bringing them to her lips she closed her hands around them before she expelled hot air on them and then rubbed his hands between hers to warm them up a little bit.<br/><br/>"If you breath on your hands and then rub them together it will keep the circulation flowing through them for a little longer. Though as cold as this winter looks to be, I don't think it will help much. I think we should head to the  house and start a fire to stay warm by."
