                           WINGS FLUTTER FOR a moment or so before the imp finally lands back on the ground, wide grin on her features as she looks up at Sumeragi. Gaze locked on him - waiting to see just how he reacts to it all. She’d be lying if she said she wasn’t just a bit excited to potentially see his flustered face. She stands, hopeful, letting out a soft hum as she waits. A light chuckle is given at his words hand rubbing the back of her neck for a moment or so. 

                             “ You say that like it’s a bad thing, Sumeragi-San. ”

☽ = wandering alone at night .

send one for my muse’s reaction to your muse —

     Being logged on at 3AM was not . . . entirely uncommon. Lots of players would stay on into late hours into the night. But usually by 4AM, players dwindle away. Sinon logged on in the early AMs, not really knowing when she’d be going to sleep. Nightmares are , a horrible thing. She usually prefers the ones that wake her up later in the night, rather than early into her sleep.

     On sleepless nights, she adventured into ALO, not even particularly doing anything, just wandering the endless fields, killing things only when necessarily. She preferred to be uninterrupted, and usually she was. None of her friends would be awake this hour . . . 

     But acquaintances were common, it seemed.

     Stopping to see the blue haired soldier, she stared, recognition flickering, but she couldn’t quite pinpoint who he was. Maybe someone Asuna knew . . . ? Or Kirito . . . ? He was staring at her oddly, which unnerved her greatly. It was enough to see men staring at her in her dreams, she didn’t like it in the one place she found true peace.

☁ = being caught in the middle a storm with them

                            WEATHER IN ALFHEIM was usually quite …. predictable, so it was easy to plan to do certain quests, or explore certain areas and whatnot. At least - it usually was there were times when things would not go the way they seemed for ways that - sometimes would be explained, and sometimes would not. 

                  ( This would be one of the times where the change couldn’t be explained. ) 

     Well, the day had started out nice at least – the two of them had plans to do some exploring, nothing too extravagant but it was still something that the Undine had looked forward to. As there were still parts of ALFheim that even she had yet to see. And what better way to experience them than with Sumeragi ? 

     …At least, that was how her train of thought went. It was a beautiful day - and had started out with one of ALfheim’s finest weather settings. She never would have expected the day to go south. She was….. unlucky, for that reason. The initial drop of rain is felt causing blue hues to glance up at the sky, frown immediately coming across her features as she notices the sky turn grey. 

                               “ It wasn’t supposed to rain today…. ”

     Is muttered with bated breath, arms folding over one-another as a sigh is given. Rain now beginning to drop at a more rampant rate. It was…. an inconvenience, to say the least. A hefty sigh escapes the girls lips as she turns to face the other - she felt bad honestly she did. 

                             “ I…. I’m sorry, I didn’t know it was going to to rain. ” 

             “ I think we passed a place were we can wait out           the storm until it passes by, a cave - not so far back. ”

                                     “ It’s not the most convenient, I know….. ”

     Of course, there was magic to make the rain more bearable but even with that - she really had no desire to stand out in the rain - it wasn’t as fun. ( A cave wouldn’t be much better, but it would be dry. ) This is how they ended up in the predicament they were in, being stuck in a cave waiting for the rain to go away. 

                                 “ I’m sorry - again. I know this is… less than ideal. ”

           “ —- Up until the rain though, I was really      enjoying myself… spending time with you and all. ”

     A hand moves to rub against her cheek as this is said, she could feel her cheeks heating up and for a few moments - she was glad that the cave was dimly lit. Because the last thing he wanted was him seeing her flustered face. 

               “ I hope that - at least up until now, you were able to enjoy yourself too. ”

NIGHTMARE STARTERS.

                            HIS WORDS DON’T register for a few moments, her mind too focused on the nightmare she’d just woken up from than anything else – slowly, she blinks. Small almost cautious movements are taking in the direction of HIM, a hefty exhale escaping her lips as she gives a small shrug, finally addressing what he’d asked her. 

                                           “ I don’t want to go back to sleep. ”

                         “ Or rather —— I don’t want to have another nightmare. ”

                                       “ I’m…. afraid that I will… you know ? ”

     It was not often, but there were still times that she’d get nightmares about the terrors of Sword Art Online - she saw countless people die in front of her, people that could have possibly been saved. In her dreams she still sees their faces, she hears their final words over and over in her head, consuming her thoughts and her dreams. She’d do whatever she could to make it go away – she didn’t want to forget about the people that were lost, but she… really couldn’t handle seeing them die again and again in her dreams. 

                                    ( It was simply too much for her to bare. ) 

     In almost a childlike manner, she shifts over to Sumeragi – arms would loosely drape around him her face pressing against his back gently, she really had no energy to do anything more than that - not after the shock from her dream. It felt like her arms could slide off him at any moment but for as long as she could, she’d take solace in having him near her. Knowing that he was there – he wouldn’t leave her side, in one way or another it really did help her feel better. 

     Asuna stays like this for a moment or so, deliberately not answering the rest of his question – part of the reason for that she felt a bit of comfort, doing what she was right now. HE was comforting to be around, this was fact. The other reason being because she just wasn’t sure what she wanted - it was such a simple question - but pondering over it made her head hurt. ( An effect of just waking up, she’d assumed, ) a moment or so would pass before she gives a small groan. 

                    “ Tea… would be nice… can we just stay up and talk ? ”

                                        “ I — I mean until you get tired —- ” 

MY EXCITEMENT FOR 16.5 WILL NEVER CEASE SO LONG AS I MAY GLOP.
