Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sekan nodded. "Yes... but well.. We've wasted plenty of time chittering away~! I will arrange a time and place with our Lord appropriate for a nice first meeting." He winked playfully at her and laughed a bit. "Dress how you please but do keep covered. It's not that kind of meeting~~" He stepped back almost instinctively, as if expecting to be hit or slapped, but really he was just teasing. He listened to Roisin and she seemed to have the carnival's best interests at heart. Well, she better have at least! Being a carney and all that. It was simply a matter of time to see if she clicked with their Lord or not.

Sekan has chosen games as your first meeting with Venezia!

Sekan found another newbie among the small crowd. Let's ignore the fact Sekan was a newbie himself! This one in particular looked as if he was one of the many animal-like carnies that ran about the carnival. They always put a smile on Venezia's face. Something about them finding a place where they belong and not being considered freaks by the other carnies. It was true. They were different but no different than he was to them. "Hey handsome, I have a few questions to ask you if you'd spare a moment~" He leaned against one of the cotton candy booth's walls. "It really won't take that long of your time~ Promise~!"

A wave of a hand and a general welcome caught Benitoite's eye. She turned slightly to face Italia and gently pushed some of her bangs out of her face with two fingers. "It is my hope to meet your God. Yes." She replied to the carnies question. Benit inclined her head subtly while addressing the second question asked of her. "I expected questions to be ask, so go ahead. Ask whatever you will of me."

Italia nodded. "Very well. I promise to go easy on you. But not too easy~" She laughed a bit and clasped her hands together. "Right, time for questions!" Her tail flicked behind her as she pondered but a moment then began to ask.

* You aren't a carney and while there's no problem with it, would you be willing to join the Carnival if you were to get serious with Lord Venezia?

* What do you think of the carnival itself? I'm not sure how much you've had time to see so please be as honest as possible!

* What do you think of Lord Venezia? His personality? His looks? Why do you wish to be with him?

* Give a little background information on yourself... I love hearing where people come from and it helps me understand you better!

Benit's expression did not change as Italia laughed and made what Benit assumed was a teasing comment. Instead she placed one hand upon her hip and waited for the questions to be delivered for answering.

"Of course I would join the carnival if things grew serious between us." She replied simply. "Pledging my heart to him would be a hollow act if I did not become one of his followers as well. I doubt my interest could be taken seriously otherwise." Benit paused and considered if she needed to add more to her answer, but decided that she had answered the question as clearly as needed.

Benit actually took her time to answer what she believed was the hardest of the questions. "I have not seen too much of the carnival to be honest. I know there are rides and games and some very odd choices of food. I'm still attempting to figure out how one deep fries ice cream without it turning into a oily cluster of melted goop." Benit gave her shoulders a slight shrug as her only visible eye closed momentarily. "I have never visited a carnival before now, and I get the feeling that it currently is not at it's best." Benit's eye opened as she peered at Italia. "I would like to see the carnival as it is meant to be experienced before I formed a more solid opinion of it."

The third question posed brought forth a thin smirk of a smile to her lips. "What do I think of him?" She repeated. "I think he is a God. He's a bit melancholy right now. Sadness is not a emotion that I could call alluring, but I am interested to see what he could be like when not so distracted by his heartache. I do admire his choice of clothing. He seems to be rather stylish. Though I want to ask him about that veil he wears. What he was thinking when he donned it and why he's decided to keep it as a constant fashion accessory." Benit paused and tilted her head back while considering why she wanted to be with him. "I think that the depth of the love a God can feel must be very deep and powerful. I think it would take a very special woman to become the source of that love. Even more so when it comes to replacing the love that was lost. She must not only be special enough to become that spark in his heart, but she must also be potent enough of a love to mend the wound left behind by that first. It's not enough to just be the loved one, she must also be a restorative balm that will remove the lingering pain. I want to know if I could be such a woman. I want to know if I am worthy of a Gods love."

Benit was quite when Italia would ask her of her background. Her lips pressed downwards from the smile they had held during her previous answering. With something of a cold expression settling over her features she fixed Italia with a unblinking gaze. "My name is Benitoite. Named primarily for the color of my hair and cloths. I am a intellectual as well as a beauty. I come from no place special, at least no place I intend on carrying in my memories as I grow older. I am seeking a special place in which to lay down my true roots. A place that shall be the seed of the future that shall blossom for me." Benit lifted a hand up to her necklace and began to play with the three charms that dangled from it's silver chain. "The stone that I am named after is given the traits of three important energies. Power, Healing, and Love. For a time I have paid no heed to these attributes. Yet when I heard of Venezia and your searching for someone to court him, I did begin to wonder if there might be more to my name then just a elegant flourish."

Italia listened to Benit carefully. She couldn't quite place a finger but something didn't sit right with her words. Perhaps Italia was being too protective of her father? It could be. At the same time she couldn't shake the feeling. She simply smiled and bowed. "You seem to have a really sound head on your shoulders! If anything, my father could use a friend like you." She didn't want to come out and say it out right but she felt the choice of words said it enough. Benit was a beautiful lady, no doubt, but it seemed as if she was trying more for herself as a challenge than for the actual purpose of it being love. Then again, how could it be love? She never met Venezia. Still... Italia could at least allow them on one date. If anything, it could still be a great friendship! "How about you meet Lord Venezia sometime? You can try some of our foods." She smirked.

[If you want, I can start the PRP between the two of them. It would occur before the current events going on. xDD ]
