The captain studies the young, barely adult elf while she nervously adjusts herself, arranging the jacket once more around her breasts. The captain’s eyes dip downward ever so slightly when this happens but a gentle throat clearing from Mayari makes Velosa look up once more and smile at the young woman presenting the parchment to her, when did that happen? The captain smiles charmingly and takes the paper from the young dark elf , unfolding it. Most obvious before even the marks on the slip was of course the scent. The scent of young woman and lavender and it was enough to make the mixed blooded elf to take a much more obvious smell, her nostrils flaring ever so slightly as she looked over the woman’s grades.<br/><br/>She was quiet as she did so and at this distance Leeloo might have noticed that she too smelled freshly bathed though while the dark elf’s was soft and feminine hers was slightly less so. Her sandy blonde hair was tightly puled back with a piece of red lace securing it into a pony tail and whatever she had slicked it back with had left her smelling slightly masculine. It wasn’t enough to be off putting but it was definitely different, even pleasant. After what seems like an hour but is in fact hardly a minute of only the sound of hooves filling the small but posh cabin of the carriage Velosa speaks up while looking back up to Leeloo once more. The woman’s scores were average but it was clear she was bright if she scored in what were honestly the two hardest subjects on the docket. “ Well it seems you are both bright and beautiful, Leeloo. And is that lavender I smell? That is how a woman of your age and beauty –should- smell.” She added with a wink before handing back the parchment and letting her hands settle upon the tri-corn in her lap once more.<br/><br/>The flirting was not entirely harmless as it’d seemed however, the captain had noticed how easily flushed Leeloo was prone to get and she was already trying to work her way close to the young, budding woman. At this point in time it was less for physical gratification however, but more to win her trust over so the young dark elf would approach her over the Queen when it came to matters of importance. It didn’t annoy Mayari any less however and she cleared her throat once more before speaking up, her accent thick and muddying her words quite well. “Why don’t you tell her about the expedition, captain. Rather than stare at the swell of her chest.”<br/><br/>Ravenoak pauses and shoots her friend a glare but lets the offensive comment roll off of her shoulders confidently. “ My companion, though quite brash, does have a point.” She holds up a finger to buy herself a second and with the same hand reaches into her coat, pulling a pocket watch from the interior pocket. It was a marvel of dwarven engineering and one of the few surviving pieces of technology from the lost race that was still common after the cataclysm. She consulted the device quickly before snapping it closed and looking out of the cabin window as if to confirm the time. They were progressing well and would be to the ship within the half hour. Satisfied she puts away the device and smiles at Leeloo. “ Well, let us start simple Leeloo. Have you ever heard of the elven homeland? The Isle named goldleaf?”<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
