Already back? hmmmm, what have i done?
Enjoy^^
She walked through her wardrobe, taking a deep breath and letting her gaze wander over the several dresses, tops and pants.
"Come on Elise. You've done this like a billion times already." She said to herself, scratching the back of her head clueless what to wear this evening. She wanted to look stunning, catching Zyra's full attention without taking her too much by surprise. The plantmage was still new to the institute and her new body, inexperienced with social manners and barely keeping company with the other champions.
The Spider Queen's plan was to get closer to the dangerous beauty. Albeit confused most of the time the other mage seemed to keep her head leveled in any situation, earning her deep respect and awe from Elise's side. However, normally she played everything cool as well, seducing men and women likewise with ease. But today she was nervous. It was not a date, at least she did not emphasize it could be and Zyra properly did not get the meaning of watching a movie together. She sighed again.
"Well, as long as I can learn a bit more about her, it should be fine, right?" she spoke to herself, a bit too loud thought.
"What's up darling? Allergic to pollen?" LeBlanc mocked her from the other side of the bedroom. Elise wrinkled her nose.
"Since when you are here, Evaine?"
"I told you to not call me this. And I'm here for quite a time, you spiderlings already warned you several times." Her mocking smile grew bigger as did Elise's annoyance.
"I'm not in the mood to play your games."
"Why no, of course not. But you do realize that bringing flowers to a date usually is a bit different?"
"EVAINE! Either way you help me finding something to wear or you fucking leave my room" Elise growled now. LeBlanc looked at her surprised, seemingly had not expected for her friend to lose her cool this fast.
"My my…" she mumbled under her breath and stood up from Elise's bed, walking through the wardrobe herself now. She picked up a few things and laid them down on the furniture around the bedroom. The Spider Queen watched her suspiciously.
"Calm down. I got it. You're serious about this, more than usually. But at this rate you're going to screw this up."
"Are you serious? I know how to seduce! How to lure someone in!"
"True, but does this plant know about sexuality?" Elise went quite at that. The other mage got a point.
"She is part human….as I am" she answered lowly after a while, playing with one of her children that crawled up on her shoulder. It skittered excited, giving LeBlanc the creeps. "Why I am friends with you again?"
"Cause even you get lonely when you can't make out with your mirror image." Now it was Elise mocking her a bit. She stopped right away thought, she still wanted Evaine's help and not her playing against her. Especially not when she was supposed to be on her date or whatever she could call it. After a while of arguing with the Deceiver she finally found her clothing for the evening. A simple black dress with a slit on her left leg to stay mobile and showing off for the plantmage. She wanted to catch her eyes after all without being to forward.
Her nervousness grew over time and it did not help that she could not see the redhead yet.
What's taking her so long? Maybe she ditched me? She thought darkly, wrinkling her nose in frustration. A claw tipping on her shoulder made her jump and screech in shock.
"Ah….sorry?" a well-known voice apologies, a bit confused if she should. The hairs on Elise's neck rose from the echoing voice of her company.
"Ah no. It's alright. Just was lost in thoughts! Let's pick a nice movie and enjoy. Do you like popcorn or nachos? What to drink?" the half-spider said hasty, gesturing widely with her hands. Zyra just smiled calmly. "Just water."
After buying the tickets, drinks and some popcorn for herself, Elise calmed down a bit. The first minutes had been a hard challenge. The plant mage was wearing plain clothes, just a green jeans and a white button-up, but somehow managed to look gorgeous in this. The hair flowing over her shoulders like red silk and glowing eyes like liquid gold looking down on her. Zyra was rather tall for a woman, would be even without the thorns being her heels. And then there was this perfume. Fruity. Alluring. It took her a few seconds until she realized that the plant don't wear any other scent then her own.
"May I?" Zyra asked her, leaning in. The Spider Queen looked dumbfounded at her until she got what the other woman wanted. She nodded stiffly and held the Popcorn towards her, letting her taste it.
"You never eat popcorn before?" she asked curious and regretting such a stupid question right away. Golden orbs looked at her from the darkness of the room before the screen finally filled it with light and colors again.
"No. It's my first time in a cinema" Zyra answered, her voice monotone. Elise tilted her head a slight bit. This was her chance and she knew it. She just had to play it cool, but her mouth was faster and so she blurted out "I could show you everything humans enjoy!"
At first the plantmage was silent, taken by surprise at Elise's outburst. The other woman was caught in eternal inner screaming with the wish to get swallowed by a hole in the floor and never come back. This thoughts got less when Zyra smiled calmly, slowly easing her and nodding. She looked back at the screen then, following the action and leaving the situation uncommented.
The Spider Queen sighed lowly and relieved. She know it wasn't her doing that saved this awful moment, but was grateful to Vilemaw anyway. She put me to ease… I guess her aura is rather aggressive. Elise watched Zyra instead of the movie. The plantmage frowned once a while or smirked at something funny, her grinning mischievous at its finest. And lovely…
"That's the part where I have to thank you for the great evening, right?" Zyra guessed. Elise chuckled at that, being a lot calmer around the other woman after the movie. Also because she was a bit tired already.
"You don't have to thank me if it doesn't feel right for you to do. You may have to learn manners, but like you, I am no human, not anymore." It was Elise giving her a warm smile this time.
"You look awful, you're tired, aren't you? Go to bed and sleep well"
"That's not what you should say to a woman, Zyra. It's very impolite and could hurt called woman" Elise explained, playing sad at the last word and startled her. "I-I'm sorry!"
The spidermage laughed loudly at that. "Just joking. I know I need sleep. Nice dreams to you" she smiled and leaned in, pecking a kiss on her cheek before turning around and leaving.
She is so clumsy with word…that's going to be so much fun and cute anyway she was gushing over the plantwoman, whistling happily into the night. Suddenly the kiss on the cheek jumped into her mind again. "OH CRAAAAAP!"
