<strong>Lionel Porter<br/>Time; Early Afternoon, Day 1<br/>Location;  Main Hall of Arcania High<br/>Tagged; Giselle; Rialla (if available)</strong><br/><br/>Lionel was looking forward to this heated debate; Giselle was a very worthy rival indeed, and seeing the fire in her eyes, he knew she'd give him a fight. Unfortunately it wouldn't be a literal fight, and his request would have to be post-poned for the time being. Right now she was pouring her heart out onto the Leo-Sapien. She talked about scars running so deep that time itself may never heal them, but from what he was hearing, he could tell he had another bit of veteran expertice to share. Now, two broken hearts, a sentiment Lionel felt once and was familiar to it, and in fact it seemed they were both familiar stories as well, though Lionel's time to share wasn't now; Giselle clearly needed the support of a friend being there for her, and this Leo-Sapien's shoulders were large enough for four people to cry on, let alone one. The ending of the tale, or seeming cliff-hanger, was very tempting to ask for more, but firstly Lionel patted her shoulder as he said "Not just yet Giselle, I can see one little thing in your story..."<br/><br/>"...and that is simply, I assume, heartbreak. I know the sentiment, and it is painful, but you must know that you can beat these scars. Neria is there to support you, as am I, you just have to ask, alright? I know that a proud being such as myself, with buckets of arrogance to spare, saying these things is certainly odd, but trust me, everything, and I mean everything, can be beaten one way or another." Lionel then wrapped his arm around Giselle's back and squeezed her tightly in a hug, stroking her hair as he said "I think somebody needs a long over-due cuddle, don't you? Go on, tell me everything. And don't you dare say that chair is more comfy than my fur, I know that as a fact it isn't. I used extra-soft lotion in my mane today, and if its already worn off somebody owes me a lot of money back." chuckling lightly as he rubbed Giselle's back. It was odd, the big furball stroking the more 'human-ish' being as a teddy bear role reversal, but then again what wouldn't happen at this place, huh?
