A furrow settled into her brows as she tilted her head looking at him, she had made it clear that she wasn't interested in a relationship yet... the longer she stayed around him the more he seemed to be growing on her.... for a friend in any case. As he spoke further about being detached from his emotions there was a slight shake of her head to him. That was never a good thing unless you could truly and honestly live with it. Her eyes lowered to look at the ground between them, she was perhaps going to hate the outcome but...<br/><br/>"It isn't good to detach yourself from your emotions, the feeling will only grow out of control at some point and lead you right into trouble. Honesty would be better then anything else. Humans like to be honest... well most of us do anyways."<br/><br/>There was a pause of her words as she looked back up at him, she debated whether to ask her question, though a little scared of what the answer would be. Her hands moved behind her back gripping them tightly there as she inhaled a deep breath to speak.<br/><br/>"I haven't been in a full and complete working relationship before. The military has pretty much kept me from that but... the ones I thought I could... 'love' seemed to prove... I wasn't what I thought I was. I try to avoid relationships... even more so now, knowing that someone could leave you the next day, it honestly hurts the emotions, makes you sad. It has happened to me twice, since then I try not to be 'involved' with anyone, you included considering people from your home world will be coming to take you back, and you won't be coming back. I mean... look at me I must read 'damaged goods' somewhere on my forehead, or perhaps most the humans here are looking for a woman that is like a model, which I don't seem to be. Men on earth are very confusing. What do you see when you look at me?"<br/><br/>There, that seemed to be honest enough, honest about her past and what she felt about her future in any case, now she wondered... what honest answer would he give her? Her eyes averted from his, looking to her car behind him as she moved, though was stopped by a large snow fall that came from over head. There was a blink of her eyes as she tilted her head back to let some of the snow fall on her face.<br/><br/>"Well... look at that. It is snowing."<br/><br/>There was a smile to her lips as she teased Hiko a little. It wasn't actually snowing but... she admitted to herself that the cold flakes put out the burning fire that was raging in her cheeks.  Looking to Hiko there was some thought before she would nod her head to most everything he had said, though she shook her head to him.<br/><br/>"I will teach you anything you want to know... least try, I am not the smartest person alive, but I will try to show you what I do know. I don't expect you to show me anything in return."<br/><br/>Lore pressed her lips together, moving back to her car quickly as she looked over the roof of her car to Hiko, he seemed to be very captivated by the snow. The longer she stood there looking at him, the more he seemed to appear like a child on his first snow day. The thought was almost funny as she thought about it, she had a lot of things to show him, and the sooner they got to the cabin the more she could show him.<br/><br/>"No the fire I will make will be well contained in a fireplace."<br/><br/>Opening the door to her car, Lore slipped inside, closing it behind her as she waited for Hiko to get inside. She didn't waste much time as she honestly wasn't sure if she could take the truth he would give her to her question. Pursing her lips now she turned the engine over, and drove them all the to her cabin home in the mountains. Once in front of the cabin she turned the car off, sitting in the silence of the car for a bit before she got out, making her way up the steps of the large wrap around porch. Unlocking the doors she pushed them aside so that she could step within the dark confines of the home. The night was here which only meant the cold was worse, almost numbing as it were.<br/><br/>Setting her keys on a side table by the door Lore went to the west wing of the large cabin to the fireplace there. Lowering down she reached into one of the buckets she had beside it, filled with twigs, dried pine needles and smaller sticks. She compiled them into a small bundle and set them into the cold hearth, then she moved to the left side of the fireplace she had stacks of small logs. Taking five from the stack she stood them up straight so that they all came to rest against one another at the tips. Standing up now she took the lighter from her mantle and struck it against the bundle that was under all the small logs, starting a fire. Once it was going well enough Lord place more logs into the fire and raised up from in front of the fireplace to look at Hiko.<br/><br/>"See... easy enough hm?"<br/><br/>Not waiting for a answer Lore moved down the hallway, three rooms extended off from the large hallway, two to the left and one to the right, each of the rooms completely bare from floor to ceiling. Giving Hiko a moment to look into each room.<br/><br/>"Either one of these rooms can be yours for the week that we are here. However you see fit to make it homey enough for you."<br/><br/>Lore looked back down the hall they had come from, she still had one more fireplace to light on the east wing of her home, her area of the home. She let Hiko look around a bit longer before she got ready to move around him in the small hallway. Pressing her back to the wall she moved, sliding by him, giving him enough room to walk if he so chose.<br/><br/>"There is still one fireplace that needs to be lit."
