"That's sweet Angela." Akara said taking one of the little vials holing it up to the stars as she did to make the liquid sparkle. Her cheeks were a little pink from the hair suggestion but she was more embarrassed then offended. The whole intimacy thing was so new to her that all of it was vaguely to vastly uncomfortable though she was trying as best she could to get used to it. She liked Angela a great deal, she was so sweet and caring.<br/><br/>"No one's given me a gift...in a very long time." She said caressing the glass with her fingertips. "I'll have to think about it a fair bit before using them." She said consenting to using them. The changing of one scent wasn't so odd and it would be nice to be able to still smell nice even when she sweat.<br/><br/>"In Aurora the boys when they go courting give gifts to the girl just like what you've done though they tend to be a bit more mundane." She said a hint of laughter. "I''m sorry I've been so mean to you Angela. This is hard for me and it couldn't have come at a worse time but I think...I'd like to try.' She said getting as close to admitting to desire as she would get.<br/><br/>"But I have to speak to the king tonight, if he's going to fight the dragon in the morning I might end up as his heir and I need to speak with him before...before it's not possible anymore." She said sadly, "Come with me please?" She asked a note of vulnerability in her voice and eyes. Akara didn't lean on other people normally she was a pillar standing alone shouldering the weight of her responsibilities by herself because she rarely let anyone close to her. She was trusting Angela letting her in, inviting a form of closeness she hadn't had in her life in a very long time.
