Eloa didn't like the look the Elf gave her. Was she being appraised?? Like cattle? But then the words that came from her mouth! Eloa's cheeks colored, but not from blushing. How dare this Elf say such things to her. Her! Eloa Sonora, the Princess of Biorjen! Eloa opened her mouth to speak, but the only thing that came out was a squeak, which was drowned out by the very loud<span style="font-style: italic">BANG</span>of the Elf's head hitting the desk. It actually caused Eloa to jump just a bit, startled.<br/><br/>Wide eyes watched as the Elf's upper half continued to bang against the desk, and it was only until she looked to Sho Kaga did she realize it was him. In all honesty, Eloa knew she probably should have suspected it was Sho, instead of her initial thought of possession. Risking a look at the munchkin. She couldn't tell what was more prominent, fright or mirth. It the seemed the thing thought the Elf's punishment was utterly hilarious, while at the same time afraid Sho Kaga would turn his attention to her at anytime. Regardless, the munchkin made the wise decision to keep her mouth shut.<br/><br/>With the elf sprawled out on the floor, and the munchkin most decidedly trying not to burst into laughter, Eloa followed Sho Kaga to a hidden staircase. Once up the staircase, they headed in the direction they had come from.<span style="font-style: italic">Ok...this doesn't seem to bad.</span>Eloa wondered how many floors there-a sudden thought caused Eloa to falter in her steps. Should she thank him for shutting the elf up? He had, in effect, defended her honor. Of course, it was likely more possible that the elf had annoyed him, if anything. He didn't seem like the kind of man to be bothered by such things as honor.<br/><br/>Eloa picked up her step to catch up to him. "Thank you for...that." A smile pulled at her lips and a chuckle even popped out. "I hope I don't need to worry about any repercussions from those two, but I think the laugh is almost worth it." Oh, but how she wished she could see his face. It was much harder to read people when you couldn't see their face. Yes, body language said a lot, but facial expressions made everything so much easier. Even if she could see his eyes, it would be helpful, but they seemed to be shaded by the mask.
