Ristar watched him as the silence stretched on between them, feeling a little more comfortable with the way he looked back at her. She felt herself growing use to it, at least for now. Later she would think back on it and wonder why that was, but for now she could only focus on the man before her. When he sighed again she had to swallow a giggle, though it danced in her eyes as she kept her eyes on his.
What he said had her eyes widening a bit, the amusement being replaced with a mix of surprise and uncertainty. Ri was at a loss for words for a moment, not sure what to say. Many had commented on her eyes before, but not in the way he was. It had her cheeks darkening even more, though her fiery curls hid it from view as she tried to realign her thoughts.
"I haven't seen my eyes in over two hundred years, but I have been told they are pretty." She commented, smiling slightly as she looked him over. When something changed in him concern darkened her eyes, causing her to take a step towards him when he retreated. His breathing only added to the feeling inside her, though she wasn't quite sure why she seemed to care so much. The man was practically a stranger to her, but she couldn't seem to stop herself or control the feelings in her.
Annoyed by it she shoved all the emotions and thoughts to the back of her head where she ignored them. While doing her best to keep her mind in order she lifted a hand to brush his hair back from his eyes, looking up at him with her own. A soft and sweet look passed through them as she moved them over his face, letting her fingers brush his cheek ever so slightly before dropping it to her side.
"Hey, are you alright?" She asked, her concern evident in her voice. It was hard to keep it out so she just went with it and hoped for the best.
