"Haaaaaa..." A little sigh - Quickly smothered - purred from Knight-Novitate Leyliana Ortensia's lips, her cloak drawn around her slight form...No matter how many times she heard it, it never failed to irk her - Just a little! She totally *wasn't* a kid...She was almost *eighteen*-!...but if you looked at her, you'd never know it.<br/><br/>It's said that Paladins aren't born - They rise to the occasion, and grow into the role. Well, be that as it may...Leyliana *still* had a lot of growing to do! It wasn't that she, well, wasn't<em>cute</em>- It was just that it was the kind of cute that made people want to pat her on the head, instead of the kind that was, that was...<br/><br/>-That the woman from before had in<em>spades</em>.<br/><br/>She'd been quiet, beneath her cloak - Trying to nap and failing, mostly due to the soft giggles and moans she'd heard close by...The couple hadn't been embarrassed at all-! They'd been absolutely groping at each other like animals - How unsightly!<br/><br/>...Which was what Leyliana would've said, if she wasn't...<br/><br/>-Oh, all right. The fact of it was...She was just a little envious. It wasn't anyone's fault - It was just the way she looked. Try as she might - compared to some of the other girls at the Chapter-House, who'd blossomed into the role - Leyliana had remained more-or-less the way she'd started out; A lithe (and flat) redhead, her hair worn long to ward off the first impression that she was actually a boy. (She tended to get a little defensive at that.)<br/><br/>Addressed directly by the remaining passenger, Leyliana blinked at the invitation...Hesitating, just for a moment-! But then, her slim shoulders lifted in a slight shrug; What would be the harm? Besides - It *was* a little lonely, traveling by herself...<br/><br/>The seat creaked, as Leyliana shuffled closer - Taking the chance to stretch her legs out...Not *spreading* them the way the man was - She glanced down, then away, quickly - but relishing the chance to make herself more comfortable! Her slim fingers reached up, as she pulled her hood back - the faint *clink* of her scale-mail armor chiming at the slight motion.<br/><br/>Actually, she *was* a little curious herself - Or perhaps she was just trying to take her mind off things!<br/><br/>"It's 'Leyliana', not 'kid'," the Paladin said - A little tartly, before catching herself! "But sure - After all, it looks like we're *both* going to Linesse."<br/><br/>The wagon jumped, as the wheels ran over a rut in the road - the cart swaying from side-to-side, as she canted her head to regard him. "...You look like a well-traveled sort. You've been to the city before~?"
