Norryk laughed softly. "Listen to me ramble. I'm boring I do apologize." he raised his chin off his crossed paws as well smoothing a paw threw his hair, a rather cat like fashion.
Shaking his head he sighed slightly, using his paw that did not contain the bracelet and adjusted it. Once he was satisfied, he closed his eyes. "Do you come here often Ravyn?" he asked out of curiosity.

She looked at him out of the corner of her gray eyes. She wasn't sure how she should respond to that. Part of her wanted to leave and never come back to this place, not if he would be around. But the other part of her... She was confused. He had been the first person in a very very long time to seem genuinely interested in her. Jaded as she was, deep down... She didn't want to be alone.
"I do," she said with a small curt nod.

It took him a moment, as if he was weighing the contents of the world. He opened his blood red eyes and shifted to dip a paw in the water pulling it out after a long moment to examine it. He did not truly wish to be alone either, he'd merely cut himself off from the world.
Not only that, but he was an Ancient. Old and powerful, many feared him by mere reputation alone. Looking back at her he nodded.
"You do not have to accept my idea... but I do have to go. Would you be apposed to my returning tomorrow, M'lady?" He asked quietly, looking back at her gently nosing at her.

Her eyes widened and her cheeks grew hot as he nosed at her. Her first instinct was to lash out, attack him, but she held herself in check, though she did shift unconsciously away from him, just slightly.
"What.. you do is of your own design, Norryk," she murmured, looking away. It was her way of saying she wouldn't mind, no.

He had held his breathe, why he was not certain. Sighing he rose up and looked away, black mane falling across one half of his face. Despite his moment of feeling a bit sad he let it pass. In her own way she'd told him to come. That was enough for the Devil.
"Aye, then M'lady. I will return come the twilight of this next night." He rose up and stretched his wings, the right didn't want to respond at first. It had been injured many a hundreds of years ago. It still functioned, but slightly delayed at first. He smiled at her. "Until then." he murmured and was gone into the night, the soft sounds of his wings beating the only evidence to his take off.

Hesitantly, she moved out of the shadows of the forest and into the clearing. It was the place where she had met the devil the night before, and it was nearly twilight. She was anxious and skittish, which was very out of character for the Messenger. She was half expected him not to show, and as a result, almost hadn't herself. She had though, and here she was, seated at the edge of the pool once more, tail swishing nervously.

The soft sound of rustling wings could be heard. Flapping them as he descended to earth he landed smoothly paws touching down. Once fully on the ground his wings curled behind him, eyes gazing ahead at the clearing. She...had stayed. He had feared she would have not stayed.
Moving into the clearing he inclined his head slightly joining her beside the crystalline pool. He could not help but take note, she was even more fair then the eternal blue waters. "Good evening M'lady." he said softly gently nosing at her in greeting before taking a seat. He was a gentlemen, that was for sure.

Ravyn looked up at the sound of his wings. A faint smile crossed her face until she reprimanded herself. What the hell was she doing? Shaking her head, she dipped her head to drink from the pool as he landed, looking up once he reached her. He was a handsome creature, pure white even with his devil status. She found she liked to look at him--Wait, what was she thinking? Quickly the female turned her head away.
"Good evening, Norryk," she murmured, slowly moving to nose him back in reply.

Norryk found himself taking her in as well.. Even if he felt like he should not. He had just met her... yet he found himself attracted to her. This was strange for the Devil. Why had he even come back? Frowning inwardly, but relieved when she greeted him in a similar fashion.
"How are you Ravyn?" He said looking back at her before moving to the cool water to drink, leaning over tail swaying slowly. She was beautiful. Not in the traditional sense either, her features and coloring intrigued him..as did finding out more about her. Norryk, are you a fool? His mind hissed.
He really never was one to allow his mind to run wild. "I would pray well." He smiled, wings adjusting themselves to his back, the ever stubborn right on it's own agenda.

How was she? Torn, twisted, tainted... Any of those words would describe her well. Hell, all three of them together pretty much summed her up. She found she didn't quite want him to know that however. For whatever stupid reason.
"I am.. well, yes," is what she chose to say instead. It wasn't entirely wrong, she wasn't ill. As his wing twitched, she found a small smile crossing her face as she moved to smooth it gently with her paw. "And how are you?"

He hesitated. Torn, desolate and broken. This crossed his mind first and fore most. Frowning inwardly he shook his head. Although not visibly so she would not get the gist of his internal conversation. That was likely the last thing she needed to hear.
At her touch he came from his musing to watch her smooth the stubborn wing. "Ah..thank you once again." He laughed softly, not a mocking sound. It was too light to be cruel. "I am alright. I will admit to tired." he settled down in the grass tipping his chin upwards. "The hour of twilight..she approaches." he murmured, nodding for her to join him if the female willed it so.

She was caught a little off guard by his laugh, but once she realized it wasn't mocking or harsh, she relaxed and found the smile returned to her features. It felt odd and out of place, and at the same time, oddly in place.
"Think nothing of it," she murmured and did indeed lay next to him. She looked out over the water for a moment, then turned to look at him. "Tired? Perhaps you should rest?"

He shook his head. "I would not be able to sleep. Not only this, but it would be rude to fall asleep in such a beautiful womans company such as yourself." He murmured settling down resting onto his side.
After a moment he turned to look at her, a softer look in his red eyes. "I thank you for coming." He murmured tail flicking slowly. If one thought about it.. it was almost if he hadn't expected her to. Either way he was grateful.

At his praise she shook her head, shifting uncomfortably. "Devil Norryl, there is no need to flatter me," she said, huffing slightly. She didn't think about herself in that manner, at all, and no one else certainly had either.
She met his gaze, then turned away. "There is also no need to thank me.."

Norryk smooths his bracelet with a light nudge of his cheek. "Flattery is merely empty words. I mean these." He said thoughtfully looking back at her. "As for thanking you...I figured it appropriate." he settled for a small smile on his face.
He looked away as well dark hair falling across his eye. "Though if I am bothering you Ravyn..." he murmured slowly lowering his chin onto his paws.
