Ilian relaxed a little in relieve, his shoulder slinking down ever so slightly. Ilian would have killed hordes of people females, kings, beggars and comrades alike...but no fairies. This was were he drew the line. It was the last shred of decency that he kept.<br/><br/>Fairys where the only race that never tried to do anything seriously harmfull to him and it was the race of his mother who raised him. As such even though the start was as bad as it could get, a little smile grew on his face as the  fairies reveiled themselves, it however soon faded as he felt a little sorry he had to threaten them.<br/><br/>"Yes...my mother was one...I...", he began, lowering his blade, but not putting it away.<br/><br/>The fairies where talking so fast. They most likely didn't even realize, that they didn't give Ilian enough time to speak. Maybe they would see the blush that formed in his face when he heard the word "cute". This was the very first time he got called that and with him having a dagger in his hand, it even seemed a bit bizarre.<br/><br/>"I...never had time to-" Ilian tried to explain, but got cut off.<br/><br/>"My father was a-", he again tried a futile attempt to assert himself.<br/><br/>"Yes, that is-", his voice accelerated...as he was slowly losing the confidence that he would be able to finish a sentence otherwise.<br/><br/>"I...", Ilian's gaze wandered down, he felt guilty for his heritage.<br/><br/>"Hey! Don't you talk about other people's butts, if you haven't seen them!", Ilian chided, his voice sounding like ringing bells, finally his fairy heritage was breaking through.<br/><br/>Ilian himself seemed suprised by both his remark and voice and tried to shake it out of his head. He didn't have the time to become all fairy-like not now. This was more important than fun. The fairy inside him protested at the remark, but ultimately gave in...this was about survival and there was more fun to be had while alive.<br/><br/>"As much as i'd like to play with you. I really must get to Sona quick...I'm quite sure that people are hunting me...dangerous people, so...", Ilias began, but then something cracked inside of him and his eyes sparkled with curiousity, "What kind of wager?"<br/><br/>A big grin on his face, his eyes seeked the fairy's. He was not sure what she meant with either the challenge or the wager and most likely that was the main reason that he was interested at all.
