"I'm fine." She muttered, looking away. The little cherry comment made her face even redder, it was honestly like a cherry. She pulled her hood over her face to try and cover up how badly she was blushing. She just stands there even as he gives her space.
Evan had an almost equally flustered face but his had calmed down a little bit. He tried to use Alister as a arm rest again hopefully he wouldn't face another rejection.
Ignis picked up Kali by the waist and spun her towards the door, he didn't want to admit how fun it was to tease her, "We are pretty much ready. We should all discuss a few things while on our little…cruise."
The siblings stared for a moment, a look of What just happened? written on their faces.
Noel then shoved her way in front of her brother, asking, “Where are we going?“
“And why?” Alister gave Evan a glance, but he turned back to face them. “Discuss things, you say?”
Okay Kali was litterally over heating ajdbehd, covered her face with her hands as ignis picked her up by the waist and spun her, she let out a little sqeak as he did so. She couldn't form any thing so she said nothing besides held on a little bit.
"if you don't like i understand…..I just thought you were a very nice arm rest but I understand if it makes you uncomfortable or if it's weird…." He thought he was getting rejected by Alister again.
Ignis snaps his fingers and the new car appears, completely finished. "We are going to visit Dark's temple first. I hear it houses a remarkable collection of knowledge and weapons." He sets his head on Kali's shoulder as she did earlier. He smiled for a bit before lifting his head.
Alister muttered to him, “It’s just that we’ve only known each other for 10 minutes. It’s a little weird, but I can get used to it.”
“Dark’s temple?” Noel inquired. “It’s to protect us from the Shadows, right? The said knowledge and weapons, I mean.”
It's a wonder she didn't pass out by now, if she were a fire element she would be on fire. She honestly was just hidding her blushing face in his chest. However when he rested his head on her shoulder she gave him headpats.
When he said it was a little weird, it's like an arrow when through him. "oh. I see…" T^T he took his arm away from Alister's shoulder. "I don't want to make you uncomfortable…" He barely listened to what ignis had said.
Ignis laughs as he reaches for his ember stone and leather garments, "Well the weapons are. Knowledge is preferably a must in cases of retrieving. And I know we just met, but ever since you walked through those doors… You are now a soldier of peace. You…We must protect this world from all it's dangers. After Dark's temple, we may visit any of yours. Air's temple is quite intriguing. I'm afraid there are no historical documents pertaining to any…sound temple." He pats Kali's head as he smiles.
((^-^))
Kali enjoys the headpats very much, almost cat like leaning a bit into the pats.
“Ah, no, I’m sorry!” Swiveling his head, he grabbed Evan’s arm without thinking. He didn’t want to hurt him like he hurt Kali. “It’s just…” he lost his words, realizing what he’d just done. He seemed to freeze in place, just listening to Ignis.
Noel spoke up. “Us? But…” she had come to terms with this new reality, but not their role in it. “But why?”
He pulled Alister into a hug and gave him headpats. "it's okay. I know you didn't mean to hurt me," strokes his head a little bit with a :3.
Ignis turns to Noel, "In this world, not all can use elements or magic like we can. Humans are easily broken when corruption calls to them. We are the strongest. We have the power to push back evil and keep them away." He turns to Kali again, not realizing how much she tried to cover her blush. He approaches her and looks into her eyes again, "There's no need to hide…"
(Isn't he like still holding her waist?)
(not anymore. He's RIGHT in front of her)
(Like almost face touching?)
(Just about)
She still tried to look away from him, even though his eyes were beautiful. "….." She didn't honestly know how to respond to that, because she still felt the need to hide and cover her blush. They were about kissing distance.
Alister listened to Ignis, trying not to hyperventilate. This dude… He seemed to have no boundaries. But he didn’t try to move or say anything, he didn’t want to hurt him.
Noel didn’t respond to Ignis, simply mulling over his words before noticing her brother’s hopeless situation, and then Kali and Ignis’ position.
“I suppose love is in the air, isn’t it? Can I try to get it out so we can get going?”
"Awwwww noel are you feeling left out?" He pulls her into a hug with the both of them, a big group hug with the three of them. "come on you know you like it.~"
Ignis laughs and rolls his eyes at Noel's comment, "Alright! Kali has shotgun and we're off!" Ignis commands as he walks to the car with a set of keys magically appearing in his hands.
He lets the both of them go and walks towards the car with smiles.
Kali's blush has finally calmed down enough for her to not hide her face. She went around to the side of the car and opened the door getting in the seat. I can already tell the visor will be too short, good thing it isn't morning
Noel scowled, “I feel fine, thank you very much.” She walked over to car.
Alister quickly moves away from Evan, walking up to Noel. “Can I… just sit with you for now?”
“Sure, dork.“ Noel climbs in the car, her brother following behind.
Evan saw Alister move away, and he immediately started to think that he did something weird again, which nothing he did seemed wrong to him but I guess it was to them??? He was probably over thinking way too much but that was always the main thought on his mind as they all got in the car.
Ignis started the car and began to drive as the garage door opened. When they reached the main road, Ignis slowed. He turns to the others and smiles. He proceeds to press an unfamiliar button and every lining in the vehicle glowed. The windows began to change view as before they were close to town, now they were in a mysterious underground ruin with a waterfall in the background. The temple looked ancient yet completely intact, "What did you expect? Several day's drive?"
(It says I don't have permisson to view-)
She shrugged looking out the window. "I dunno, never visited any temples before besides maybe a school field trip I guess." she muttered.
