The Elf's sleepy eyes stared back at Mel's; the golden eyes baring not a shred of ill will.
Too used to petty responsibilities dumped onto her, Liora's brows loosened at the sincerety pouring out from the tender gaze instead.
"How burdensome."
The elf glanced away, muttering out loud. "But thank you."
Her lips almost curved for a smile, yet they frowned again as sleepiness invaded her senses.
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, then sincerely confessed.
"I would appreciate, though, if your genuine sentiment... will be spent on someone more worthier."
"...mm. Then I'd work hard at making you feel you're someone worthy, then!"
"How...arrogant."
The elf's thumb swept the back of Mel's hand; a tender gesture for a slight tease.
"Are you suggesting a child like you would seduce me into accepting your heartfelt feelings?"

"Hehe..."
