He laughed a little at her question, not because he was making fun of her or anything like that, but because he found it genuinely interesting. "No, you're actually pretty light," he admitted, especially since he could lift 500 times his own weight. He set her down gently and turned to her, "I just hope that wasn't too weird or scary for you."

It didn't take too long for them to reach the town, possibly two or three minutes later Vesper skid to a stop in the town square. His immediate reaction was to check on Bing, his head turning to one side to see her face against his shoulder. "We're here. Are you okay?" He asked still holding her on his back.

He subconsciously smiled to himself at the sound of her giggle, his hands adjusting their hold on her thighs to make sure she wasn't uncomfortable but still kept a firm grip on her. At first he thought he had heard wrong but he felt a strange feeling in the pit of his stomach as she once again called him her knight. "Alright, just make sure not to let go. I may not be as fast as my sister 'Rea but it'll still hurt like hell if you fall," he explained, it was the last thing he wanted to happen. He gave her a good second to get ready before shifting his feet and dashing forward at quick alien-like speed towards town.

He noticed the smile on her face, it wasn't like the ones she had just a few moments before, and for some reason he didn't like that. It probably had to do with the picture...or the fact that they wouldn't have enough time. Maybe. "No, we can make it. I can get us there...as long as you trust me," he said taking re hand without as much as a single thought.

A small smile formed on his lips, he liked the idea of her putting so much effort into pleasing his sister, heavens knew she deserved someone to do that for her once in a while. He pressed his lips tightly together as he thought, his eyes dropping to the floor in concentration. "There was this spot in the town courtyard, it was very green and refreshing, but it might be getting dark soon," he stated. He hadn't realized how long he had been standing in the hall with her until now. She seemed to take his mind off of things without really trying.

Her honesty was noted and appreciated. If it had been up to him, he would have most likely just walked right by her and not gotten the chance to meet her at all. But obviously there had been some factor that had led them to collide, literally. "Alright, if you say so. Treats? No, not really. At least not any that you'd have the recipe or ingredients for here on earth."

He liked the fact that she looked forward to meeting his sister, they would most likely be good friends. Usually Vesper had such a tight knit schedule that he always had somewhere to be be or something to do, and surprisingly with school, that didn't change too much. But he did get to relax more than he had back at the federation. "No, not really. Do you? I apologize if I'm keeping you or taking up your time if you have something important to do."

"That's no surprise, I think it's safe to say that Jacinta knows just about everyone. Nearea is the shyer of the two," he explained. The thought of her making cookies with his sister was somewhat intriguing, he was sure that they'd mesh well together and would get along quite well. "Technically I know the process of making cookies...but I've never actually made any."

He hadn't expected the compliments in return, especially since she called him charming after he had simply said she smelled nice. Just thinking about it made him want to smack himself for being so awkward. But it couldn't be helped. "They're pretty good, she always shapes them into stars and moons. Ah, her name is Nearea, my other sisters name is Jacinta." He nodded, his explanation was probably going to be complicated but he'd try anyway.

"It's nice," he complimented before focusing on her question. He took a deep breath, no one had ever really asked him much about himself. If anyone back at the federation wanted to know the basics about him, they would just look up his agent stats. He wasn't used to letting people get to know him. The image of small star and moon shaped cookies came into his mind. "I...i don't normally have a favorite food. But...my sister sends me some cinnamon cookies sometimes. Kind of like a care-package. I always look forward to eating those."
