Alex was happy, she took his joking so well, but then when she began talking about feeding and IF he would make to a year,,, that didn't bother him, but until she went on into dark intimate details of what she wanted... laying down his life and letting her dangle him to the edge of death like a yoyo on a string for her amusement!  He was ready to offer himself but it was a bit scary when she spoke about it that way. The worst part was that deep down he knew that would happen eventually and the more he tried to suppress those thoughts the more they surfaced...<br/><br/>Alex's bright green eyes lit up and he nodded when she switched topics and then went onto food and he eagerly followed after her listening to her as she spoke. When she mentioned she could eat human food, he smiled a bit relieved, perhaps she sit was just enjoying scaring him back in the study... that was until she went on.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">"But if you would rather be dinner rather than join me for dinner... that can be arranged."</span></span><br/><br/>"What?" he squeaked in surprise, "No! I will join you! I wouldn't dare be so rude not to accept an invitation, and it would best like you said to get to know one another first, I just didn't think I was allowed or appropriate to eat in front you as it might offend some vampires, I am just a servant after all, please forgive my ignorance," he said quickly, but then she corrected him.<br/><br/>Alex's green eyes widened and he stared at her speechlessly, but then key words were 'As IF' he was an equal, he wasn't really that would be ridiculous she was the queen after all. "You are very gracious," he thanked her with a humble bow. When the queen to her seat, he went to sit down next to her but then when she swept her hand over the table instead of the chair, he paused and bit taken back....<br/><br/>Alex put on his bravest and handsome smile he could muster and sat up on top of the table gazing down at her, grinning playfully feeling silly and a little embarrassed at the same time, and he leaned onto one side, taking a playboy pose making himself more appealing to her. "So... you mentioned dessert?" he began, when suddenly the servants came in with plates of food!  Alex yelped and he quickly hopped off the table and sat in his chair, his face red with embarrassment...."Oh...I thought pointed at the table," he said apologetically feeling extremely awkward for the first couple of seconds before Lillium commented about something protein being good for humans.<br/><br/>Alex brightened back up, "Oh yes it is! thank you," he grinned and began stacking his plate. "But thats good for repairing muscle tissue, but the fatty acids and other things are just as important, people take yokes out the eggs, but really thats just as important because that vital for your brain and Lib ..." he paused "and Other things," he said quickly catching himself finishing the word... Libido... as it probably wasn't appropriate conversation to be having at a dinner table with a Queen or any woman for that matter. But Alex was a bit of a health nut and he could talk for hours about nutrition. Alex quickly put a fork full of hot green beans into his mouth, it was extremely hard not to start shoveling food down his mouth... he couldn't remember all the silly rules about which fork to use, but remembered to keep his back straight and to keep his elbows off the table, as well as eat with his mouth closed and he figured it better stay closed for a while before he said anything else stupid.
