[b]She looked at him for a moment, thinking of where he could be from... Humans were mostly new to her. Her species was... Buried in solitude.[/b]

[b]The man didn't have any distinguishing features to tell where he was from. But gave am answer as if he knew [/b] "Ohru."

[b]She merely nodded, understanding him completely. The simple minds were often the best.[/b] [i]"Elunove."[/i] [b]She responded.[/b]

[b]He nodded as well, not wanting to ask more. He had heard stories though most were just that, stories [/b]

[i]"H-How old are you...?"[/i] [b]She asked abruptly, not meaning to be rude, rather she was just very curious.[/b]

"By human age, I amount to around sixty-six."
-
[i]"That's still young..."[/i] [b]She mused, knowing the human capacity to live, and incredible will power was able to sustain a life for many years... Desmond had shown such.[/b]

"I said by human age. My Ohru age, I'm about 178. With some of the longest living only reaching 180 at most."

[b]She blinked in surprise and gave him a worried look. He was nice, and the thought of death always scared her.[/b] [i]"You must b-be special then."[/i]

"Special? Far from it. Strong willed? Maybe... But the war did this to me."

[i]"Well... I think you are nice... You don't deserve war."[/i] [b]She remarked, the slight rest giving her enough time to recover her voice fully.[/b] [b]She looked upon the man fondly, his company doing a great deal to ease her mind.[/b]

"Ah my dear. If only life saw it as such"
-
[i]"Well... You deserve a good life."[/i]
-
"I've lived. Maybe not the best. Thank you, Chloe."
-
[i]"I wish to see you again... W-Will you still be here...?"[/i] [b]She asked simply, looking at him once more.[/b]
-
"I'll be here. Whenever needed."
-
[i]"I'm glad..."[/i] [b]She enjoyed his company, greatly hoping to keep him in mind.[/b]
-
"For now though. I think we've taken down some walls." [b]He stands, turning to smile at you [/b] "Same time tomorrow?"
-
[i]"I'll try my best..."[/i] [b]She said with a large smile, excited for the prospect of another talk, albeit even if it was passed by mostly thoughts.[/b]
-
"In that case, I bid you farewell." [b]Despite his age, he bowed at her and stood, turning to leave [/b]

[b]She bowed her head and return and gave a small wave.[/b]
