She tried to keep a calm, collected smile on her face as the two walked hand in hand, but every moment that passed she only became more aware of the many flaws she had in comparison to this beautiful elf. As the two sat on and waited for the room to be ready she pondered confessing that she had never done anything like this before. Magic, there was a statement that could apply to almost everything she'd done since she was cut off from her home. She'd never performed on a stage, never taken her clothes off for people's amusement, never felt what she'd felt when being close to some of her new companions, and never been the target of, well, whatever was happening here! Every moment she became very sure she was doing something very wrong. But Ianora seemed so composed and not worried by a thing, Alizeh tried to tell herself that meant all was well.<br/><br/>The finery of the room didn't have much of an effect on her. Vicaryn's mansion was full of such finery, she just hadn't ever been allowed to do much with it besides clean it. Still it had made her familiar with such things and she wasn't so out of place here, in fact it was a little calming, if only the view was of never-ending clouds and open sky she would have been right at home.<br/><br/>She did, however, admire the sway of the elf's hips, managing not to lick her lips and fret in nervousness as she did. She nodded and took a seat on the settee, pulling her legs up under herself to sit facing the side, leaving space for Ianora to sit next to her if she wished. She nodded and smiled at the offer of a drink, not wanting to admit she didn't have much of experience with such refreshments. She took a quick sip and smiled, enjoying the flavor. "It's very good." She said gently, setting the glass on the table in front of her.<br/><br/>"It's ah, very kind of you to invite me here." She said with a hopeful smile, "I confess I'm not used to being treated like this and I'm a little off balance." She smiled.
