Welcome to Gaia! ::

Liath didn't know why he came out today. He had no real interest in being at dances. He only used to go for the chance to see Gwen. However, after their last encounter, he rather hoped not to see her... right? Or maybe he was here hoping to see his childhood sweetheart alone. No matter what the reason for him being there was he stood against a wall, trying to hide in the shadows. He clutched a cup full of punch tight in his hand's hoping it would relax him. He spent most of his time watching the door. Seeing the people who were coming in.

Liath was admittedly not expecting anyone to approach him. Surely he looked miserable enough to scare away everyone that would come here to actually have fun. His eyes widened as he was in fact approached by a friendly looking mare. He began to panic a bit, " I uh... I don't exactly "dance" he put air quotations on the word dance. "I'm just here to uh..." how did he put this without sounding pathetic and creepy? "I just..." He really didn't know how to word why he had come to the dance because, in all honesty, he didn't know himself.

Liath stood up when pulled and watched the movements of the one in front of him. He began to rock back and forth in place swaying his arms slightly from side to side. "Happy?" admittedly this had been the closest thing dancing he had done in a while. "The last Dance I went to I kinda told my childhood best friend I loved her... let's just say I was... too boring for her." He motioned himself up and down. Liath was a glum guy buy nature he had never smiled, he always wore various shades of gray, and was pretty negative when it came to most things. "I can't really blame her now can I? I just wondered if maybe she would show up.. that's all." He looked down to the ground letting his hands drop back to his side.

Liath listened to the other nodding every once in a while almosts appearing to be getting psyched up himself. When the other finished talking though his face fell back to the usual gloom and he shook his head. "Gwen wouldn't want me to shout at her. She would perhaps appreciate a logical and well planned out solution... Gwen is a Litch, I've tried studying their customs and what not." He shrugged. Then again he did think that it could be worth a try, but he had so humiliated himself last time. Professing his love, her returning it just to later tell him of her true feelings. "I just need to formulate a logical reason that she should be with me and not... well that's unimportant." He looked almost relieved, nodding approvingly to the one in front of him, "Thank you for your input. I will let you know how it goes." Gwen wasn't here now but he would have to remember that. Maybe he could loosen up and have a little fun in the meantime.

Liath's eyes widened and he looked down at the floor blushing. He had never thought about anyone other than Gwen, probably because Gwen was the first person that he had met in the below and in their first interaction she had mentioned being his girlfriend later in life. So in his head, that was how things were going to go. "Well then I will keep you updated, I'm Liath by the way." He gave the closest thing Liath gave to a smile in a long time.
