<span style="font-weight: bold"> The conversation with Tianna: </span><br/><br/>With a raised eyebrow Xarces listens to what Tianna has to say on the matter of her experiments. He quite surprised to hear the word soul binding, as this was certainly not what his mind had expected. "Soul binding? What does that entail exactly....." he asks wondering if it at all could be enjoyable. When she mentions practicing them on the priest he simply smiles "I am sure he would make an excellent test subject, having a soul devoted to the goddess of the sun after all....." though as she suggests testing them on him he would simply cock his head, the subject being changed and moved on from long before he can provide a proper response. (Well....I suppose we shall find out, should you ever get bored......though I am likely to surprise you....) he thinks as he moves on storing this away for another time at the back of his mind.<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold"> Present time in the Rose Blossom: </span><br/><br/>Though his irritation with the guard had begun to get him worked up, the moment Euanthane's arms wrapped around him these feelings would subside, as instantly his troubles where washed away.  Xarces feeling absolutely blessed in this moment as he simply sits back upon the most comfortable seat of coils she has provided him, not fussing, or resisting for a moment as she shifts him into said lap of coils. Xarces leans back against her with out question and just lets go, his muscles relaxing as a pleasant hmmmm resounds in his neck. He looks to the guard with renewed calm and clarity. "My apologies sir....but please tell her to hurry." he speaks softly. His hands lightly running against the scales beneath him as he passes the time, tracing the patterns on their surface with his fingers.The steady beat of her heart was comforting to him, reminding him of the dream, yet unlike his dream this heartbeat had a body, had flesh, and was in the chest of a very real, very attractive female naga. (This...is most unlike me....) he realizes as it was very rare that he found time to truly relax, very rare that his body, mouth, or mind  was not in constant motion, if not all at the same time. Yet with the slightest effort this naga, this woman, was able to have him sitting comfortable, relaxed, without a care in the world. Content  to simply bask in the quite moment they where sharing together as they wait, simply enjoying her company. He softly turns his head to whisper a simple "Thank you" the Euanthane behind him.
