Cha0s Gaming - The Courtyard

*Studying a butterfly that landed on his finger*

*After eating, she enters the courtyard* (edited)

*still focused on the butterfly on his finger*

Spark?

*the butterfly flies away* Xara. Good morning, did you sleep well? I apologize if the couch wasn't very comfortable. It wasn't made for sleeping.

Not very good. For that reason

I will make the nessessary adjustments in the event you sleep over again. Though now that I'm fully charged. I won't need to sleep over for several months.

That's good. *smiles* I'm happy to see you again

I am pleased you are here as well.

*sits on the bench*

*sits beside you*

Did you sleep well?...

I assume you're referring to the charging cycle. It went well, thank you.

*leans against his shoulder* Good...

So. What do you have planned for your day today?

Nothing, really

I enjoy doing nothing. It give you time to think. Is that what you're doing now?

...Sort of

What are you thinking about?

...About you...About where to go from here...

Where would you like to go?

No, I mean...I want to be official?

Officially what? I can offer several certifications in a vast array of fields.

Your girlfriend? Your partner? Dating?

You wish to get married?

16:09

Very well. I accept your proposal. When did you wish to get married?

No no, not that!!...At least, not yet-- Boyfriend and Girlfriend just means officially a couple! Not engaged!

I see. So you do not wish to marry me. Than what changes are required?

When we've been dating a long time, then you get married

What is dating? And how is it different than what we have been doing already?

...Shit, when you puit it like that....Who knew labels really were meaningless?....Anyway, I guess the difference is now we tell people that we're together? So no one else can date us.

So I can no longer spend time with anybody else? That feels like... *he searches his databanks*...........ownership.

16:16

Do you wish to own me?

No, not ownership!

16:17

Is there any way you can study our culture? Just a little?

I already know about your culture. But it's confusing. People are complicated.

I mean study more? There's so much you should know...

For example?

The difference between hanging out and dating?

*searches* There is no difference. Your culture defines dating as spending time together, doing activities together, and engaging in sexual encounters. But that definition also applies to friendship. As sexual encouters are also shared among friends, and people paid to engage with people. The only difference I can see between the two. Is a romantic attachment.

Romantic Attachment. Exactly. I want to date you. I want us to be a couple.

I see. Very well then. I will date you. is this because you love me. and because I love you too?

Yes it is

Okay then. Entering it into databanks. Dating Xara. Access to dating subroutines denied for any further people. I am exclusivly dating you.

*Goes to his humanoid form since he knows you prefer it* I know you prefer this form. I will attempt to maintain it during our time together.

I like both your forms. I just prefer the humanoid one when we're being intimate.

So I do not have to hide what I am? Except when working in the Lounge, or Socializing with unknown people?

Yes. Exactly. I love all of you. You don't have to hide around me

But you prefer this form, right?

Only in bed, darling

So which form would you like now?

Whichever you feel is right at the moment

Alright then.

You look nice. Shiny

Thank you, You look amazing as always.

Aw, thank you

You're welcome. So, did you still want to study nature? Or were you just saying that as an excuse to spend time with me? Because we can do something you're intersted in if you prefer.

No no, I want to study nature

Alright. What are you interested in?

Flowers mostly

*he proceeds to show you a variety of different flowers, explaining each species, how they grow, where they grow, how often the bloom*

Fascinating.

You do not have to pretend you know.

It makes you happy. I want to see you happy talking about the things you like.

Lying to me, does not make me happy. I would much prefer if you told the truth regarding our interactions. I expect our interests will not always align.

I'm sorry. I just wanted to do what you wanted.

Perhaps there is something we both enjoy. What would you like to do?

Dark Wizardry, Alchemy, Piano, Dancing, and Reading once in a while

Do you play piano? Or just enjoy the sound?

I play.

After an hour of taking turns in the dance hall playing the piano, they return to the garden

So what would you like to do next?

We can read if you want

Just say you fell asleep watching him sketch the flowers

*wakes up cuz she fell asleep watching him sketch the flowers*....*goes to lunge*
