As Colette bent to lift her traveling pack she abruptly found it slipping through her fingers as Zelos intercepted her, and swung her bag over one shoulder with his most charming smile, "Colette-baby, I can't have you carrying this. One of heavenly beauty such as yourself must not be burdened by the mundane articles of this dismal world! I worship you."
Sheena made a noise to suggest she had just choked on a hairball, and spun around with deeply suspicious eyes.
"That's very nice of you to say," Colette said sheepishly. She smiled awkwardly at Zelos, rubbing the back of her neck. Zelos winked.
"You got it, hunny."
"Ugh," Sheena narrowed her eyes, "You really do lack a sense of basic decency, don't you?"
"Undoubtedly," Zelos agreed happily, and trotted after Colette as she uncertainly made her way back to the main party.
"He's making a go at Colette, now?" Lloyd asked loudly, "Well, only a matter of time."
"A marriage between the two chosens would be an excellent political manuver and symbol to our worlds, huh, Colette?" Zelos posed innocently. Raine joined Team Sheena in suspicious looks.
"I suppose that's true," Colette said slowly. She took a second to mull over the concept and then looked towards Zelos with a direct and friendly smile, "If that tactic becomes necessary, I hope we'll get along well!"
Zelos puffed out his chest, "Of course! I will cherish you until the day I..."
"Shut up," Genis snapped, and head-butted Zelos into the river.
