((Hey guys! If someone else who happens to be around wants to bump into these guys, feel free - nothing important's been plotted here so don't be afraid to jump in... only 1 or 2 more, though.))
He liked Ignis, he realized as he and Faey walked side-by-side through one of it's more open areas. And he liked seeing places, and going places, especially because Faey had never seen them before. He found himself smiling at her and telling her all kinds of things he'd learned on his travels, from the Tractus Rapids in Ketulunanox which calmed under the moonlight, to Ignis' fire swamp filled with jets of flame and quicksand.
"How're you liking the journey?" he asked her.

Faeylinn smiled at him. "I'm having a great time. I'm really glad you came with me." The whole time she'd listened to his stories, amazed at how much he'd traveled and seen and knew. Compared to him she felt inexperienced and a bit stupid, but just being around him was enough to counter-act that. He made her feel like she was special, loved her even though she wasn't. Even just looking at him now she felt that unexplainable attraction, accompanied by a sudden urge to touch him. She smiled once more, to herself this time as she reached over and took his hand, happily satisfying that urge.

He grinned. "I'm glad I got to come, too." He seemed bemused. "Seems like it's a lucky war for Nerezzans... Milady falls in love, Captain Princel falls in love, I fall in love..." He shook his head.

"Are you complaining?" She joked, then reached up on her tiptoes to kiss his cheek, still grinning like an idiot, ridiculously happy just to be here with him.

He laughed. "Of course not!" He picked her up, lightly spun her around, and set her back down. "It just might cause a few problems. I suppose Milady has concocted some cover story about you seducing me to run off with you and turn my back on my country... because according to the rest of the Sumata, you're not from around here, so you're against them." He sighed. "The good with the bad."

She laughed and then teased. "And am I? Seducing you, I mean?" She grinned and raised an eyebrow suggestively.

He smiled conspiratorially. "Maybe I'm seducing you... isn't that how it goes in all the stories? Beautiful, naive young maiden captured and enthralled by dark, brooding vampire against her will and that of her family...?"

"Couple of problems with that particular cliche. One; I'm not beautiful. Two; you said yourself you're no good with influencing people. And three; you are nowhere near the category of 'dark, brooding vampire'. Nice try." She smiled and kissed his cheek.

He grinned. "See? Fairytales aren't always real.... and you are so beautiful." He wrapped his arms around her. "Still... we aren't going to get anywhere if we stand here all day. You wanted to see the city, right?" He didn't let go, though.

"We'll get to it..." She murmured, then kissed him, quickly losing her train of thought as she wrapped her arms around his neck.

He liked this. Nothing but the two of them, together, in the open plains of the world, holding each other like they were the last people on the face of Crepusculum...

After a few minutes, though it seemed far too soon to her, Faeylinn pulled away from the kiss, resting her forehead against his to whisper, "I love you..." she pressed her lips to his once more, quickly, then stepped reluctantly out of his arms, her hand taking his again. "We probably should go see the city now..."

He nodded, smiling at her, and took her hand. "We'll go together," he promised.
There was a little giggle as a small shadow flew up and twirled around in the air. Me too! Me too!
Vaan laughed. "You too, Shiluya."

Faeylinn laughed with him and began walking towards the city. "Come on, I'm hungry. Let's go get something to eat!"

He snickered. "You mean you go get something to eat. I'm not hungry."
But you can at least pretend to eat with us, right, Mr. Vaan? It'd make Faeylinn happy!
She wrapped herself around his neck, then flew back to Faeylinn.
"Alright, alright, Shiluya," he said, laughing.
