1x1 - Zelly & Anime

[M3Gnificent]

"I...she doesn't completely hate me?" Milly asked, looking rather confused. Sure, Ariae didn't hate Milly in the least, but she was good at leaving mixed impressions.

 

[Zelly-fangirl]

"Of course not, Ariae's just not very good at showing affection for people who aren't me." Jaquel said with a chuckle.

 

[M3Gnificent]

"If you don't mind me asking...how did you two first meet?" Milly asked, beginning to wonder how someone like daddy and someone like Ariae could be in such an 'interesting' relationship.

 

[Zelly-fangirl]

"She had gotten into some trouble and I was the knight to bail her out of it, back when I was still just a regular patrol officer." Jaquel explained with a small smile.

 

[M3Gnificent]

Somehow, Milly didn't find this hard to imagine. "what did she look like then? Somehow, I can't imagine that she's always been like she currently is."

 

[Zelly-fangirl]

"Well for one thing she still had her wings, and her hair was golden blond and much shorter than it was now." Jaquel said, making no mention of her scars.

 

[M3Gnificent]

Still finding herself curious, Milly asked, "Was her personality very similar to what it is now? Or was she different then?"

 

[Zelly-fangirl]

"Oh Ariae was very different compared to now. In fact she's really improved over the years. Back then she was admittedly quite a mess, always worrying about one thing or another, and she had almost no confidence. The only time she seemed okay was if I was around to keep her calm and comforted." Jaquel said.

 

[M3Gnificent]

"Somehow I find it difficult to imagine her like that." Milly said with a slight chuckle. "Paranoid? Maybe, but not without some manner of confidence in herself."

 

[Zelly-fangirl]

"Well believe me, she was. No matter how many times I came back from a war in one piece she was always thinking I'd die in battle at some point." Jaquel said.

 

[M3Gnificent]

Ariae was just now passing by the two. She offered Jaquel a hug and a smile, with little to no attention payed towards Milly.

 

[Zelly-fangirl]

"And good morning to you too." Jaquel said offering Ariae a kiss in return.

 

[M3Gnificent]

Ariae returned the kiss, grinning broadly afterwards. "How are you this fine morning?"

 

[Zelly-fangirl]

"Perfect, and judging by the smile on your face, I'd assume the same can be said about yourself." Jaquel said with a smile.

((And since we still haven't gotten any word from Haru about his thoughts on a time skip to ressurect Steal My Way to Victory, should we just go ahead and do it? Or PM him first? I'd just feel horrible if we never really finished it, you know?))

 

[M3Gnificent]

{We should PM him with the news and commence with it anyway.}

Ariae nodded. "Mhmm. I practically slept like a baby~"
