Oh yes, definitely wishing she could purr...  As it was, the shifter's body arched away from his touch at first, but soon settled back down, her eyes drifting shut as she simply enjoyed the attention to her body.  Her legs even tilted outwards slightly, a subtle invitation for him to keep going with his shin, even though he was already to the point of lifting up her knee-length skirt with his leg.  The wine sounded like it would fairly enjoyable, and sailcloth certainly sounded more comfortable than many places she had laid down to rest upon over the years.  Of course, then came the revelation that they were drifting directionlessly...<br/><br/>That didn't really seem to matter as he stood up, however, and her hands slid up to his chest as he leaned in, feeling the muscles on his chest with the same enthusiasm with which he groped at her rear.  Then came that kiss, and for several long seconds, the world just seemed to stop...  But alas, nothing could last forever.  Breaking the kiss, she nuzzled into his chest, her arms slipping around his sides to trap him in a hug.<br/><br/>"I really want to just take you over to that sailcloth and start drinking you in now."  She admitted, not at all embarrassed to speak of the effect he'd had on her.  "You've gotten me all hot under the collar... no pun intended.  But... I should probably go and meet up with Aria, so that we can see if there's a chance of catching Garland."<br/><br/>By way of apology, she gave him another quick kiss, then stepped away.<br/><br/>"I'll be looking for you at the party tonight, though."  She added in, winking flirtatiously.  "If you bring those drinks you mentioned and meet me in the aftcastle, I wouldn't mind figuring out which room has the best bed on the ship."<br/><br/>Ideally through vigorous testing...  Though that would have to wait until the party began.  For now, after straightening out her clothes and getting directions to the Mermaid, she bid him a fond farewell and made the jump back to shore.  From there, it was fairly easy to follow Aria's trail, the helpful directions from the Mermaid's proprietor and her own teleportation ability cutting down her travel time immensely, and soon enough, she was asking for Sarda at the Coin on Edge.
