Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ruby gave him a sweet smile, "Who said anythin' about carnal relations?" She glanced back at Arch, "Sug? did you say somethin' about carnal relations?" Ruby winked at Diruak, if anything to make him squirm, "I'll send you an invite if we ever decide to 'culminate our pure courtship in a holy union', but it ain't likely anytime soon, if ever." Ruby leaned forward with a soft whisper, "I think he's afraid of it, considerin' his last experience."

Ruby turned back to Arch, taking his help with a grin, "I am, what about you? Anythin' still broken?"

"Funny fella, but I think I could learn to like him." Ruby smiled, with a slight nod. Her smile softend as she glanced back at Arch, "I'm real sorry about the hospital, sug," She reached out a hand and stroaked the feathers of one wing, and frowned as she remembered it drooping. "real sorry."

A small redhead peeks out from behind the castle doors. She glanced at Seth, blinking her eyes, and letting a smile spread across her face. If Seth had any questions about whether it was Ruby or Scarlet, they were completely put to rest when Ruby patted down the steps of the castle, barefoot, and gave Seth a quick hug. "Sug, you look worse than the dead body my brothers found in the swamp."

Ruby looked him up and down, "You ain't a corpse if you're functionin', you know. Or at least I don't think so, what exactly is the definition of a corpse?" She stepped back and put her hands on her hips. "The witch is dead, an' if you say 'ding dong' or make any munchkin references 'bout my hiehgt, you ain't gonna be far behind her. She was more or less trapped inside a series of mirrors, and taken to the vaults of heaven of all places."

"Animated corpse, heh? Isn't that what everybody is?" Ruby shook her head, "an' no you don't, you've had a crush on me for five years, don't even try to hide it. I'm just that cute." She gave him a winning smile.

Ruby glared, "I'm not that short." She sniffed, tilting her chin in the air, to make herself look taller. "An' of course you had a crush on me.....um, I just attract the angelic or demonic type, I s'pose." She guessed wildy, having no actual idea whether Seth had a crush or not, but being prone to bold assumptions she continued to push forward.

Ruby skipped ahead of him more than a little nervous, "no, no you don't, she's dead, you don't need to know that. Nobody knows your true name anymore, well....'cept me, but it's not like I know how to use it."
