Welcome to Gaia! ::

Shesha drew back, licking his painted lips, looking very much like a perzi that had caught a poor goldfish out of a pond as he said, "Silly little fish... surely by now you must know all the ins and outs of that sort of thing. Unless this is part of your act? Look all cute and sweet to make your targets want to eat you up?" It was a good act, one that many would likely pounce on, and end up being stabbed to death for their efforts. He'd leave being stabbed to the idiots out there that were more likely to fall into such a trap then he was.

Pushing back from the fence he only smirked as Aqio seemed for a moment as though he were about to come over the fence toward him... only to retreat. That was something that had him laughing, "Oh dear... poor little fish... you shouldn't be running away or else someone might think that you were afraid of a half dressed mage or something." In this one instant Shesha actually found himself enjoying Aqio to the utmost if only because it seemed as though he might have thrown him off his game for real. If not... well, he was a damn fine actor and would definitely do well in his coming line of work.

"Shocking skills? Little fish a kiss isn't even what I would consider anything more then level zero when it comes to the skills that I have. It's cute of you to act as though it's something so grand though." It tended to take a lot more then a kiss to impress some people and yet Aqio was acting as though it were something special, even claiming it to be his 'first kiss' which Shesha wasn't so stupid as to believe. No, he was just playing the game that his guild likely taught him to play, but since it was amusing to Shesha he saw no real reason to call him on it. Instead he merely chuckled, ever amused by how innocent Aqio was playing at being.

As Aqio started to climb the half wall he waited, expecting the assassin in training to come after him... but instead he just took a cross legged position, seemingly trying to calm himself through meditation. That alone was enough to give away the truth, that Aqio was far from being as innocent as he was feigning he was. Taking a step closer he looked at Aqio and asked, arms crossing over his chest, "What are you doing now, little fish? Trying to save yourself through creative breathing exercises?"

Shesha gave a bit of a chuckle, unable to help but to be amused by the fact that Aqio was pulling out all the stops, meditation included, to try to save himself. It really was funny, to the point that the mage shook his head and said, "I see, I see... well, good luck with that, little fish." While he really didn't think that meditation would be able to save him he would allow him to try. It made the game that Shesha was currently playing that much more interesting in his mind. How he longed to break the Matorian's desperate attempts at being serious and calm.

Lifting a hand he brushed the back of it against Aqio's cheek and said, "So, will that meditation of yours help as far as this blush is concerned? If you leave your face so red then I might start to believe you have an actual drop of innocence in you, little fish."

Shesha gave a rather pleased sound as he noticed the manner in which Aqio nearly fell off of the wall that he'd taken up sitting on. He gave a grin, hands clapping together, "You really are a cute little fish, aren't you? To think that you'd nearly fall off the wall just due to a little pat on the cheek... I'm starting to think that perhaps I am your weakness, little fish. I'd say you should be careful about that lest I take full advantage."

Watching as Aqio slid off the wall he studied him for a moment, then got a rather feline like grin on his face before he made a motion with his hand. As he did so one of the rocks in the wall that he'd just vacated slid forward, making a step of itself. Shesha stepped onto it, using it to get onto the wall himself. Once there he settled down, brushing invisible specks of dust off his beautiful robes. Once done he rested his arms on his lap, leaning forward, locking eyes with Aqio for a long, drawn out, and silent moment.

After a time Shesha lifted a hand, crooking a finger at Aqio, and said, "Aqiiiiiio... come give me a kiss."

Shesha cocked his head to one side, lifting an eyebrow, watching him as he seemed to be struggling with himself in the moment. What a cute little fish he thought to himself, finding Aqio to likely be at his cutest in this moment. Taking a person that was normally so confident and leaving them so shaken. As he came closer, a dark look in his eyes, he started to threaten him and come after him.

"Several methods to cause harm? Now that would be the polar opposite of a kiss, little fish." He told him, giving a little tsking sound. That he would go as far as to threaten him when all he was asking for was a simple kiss. Aqio was sure acting the part of a prude all of a sudden. As Aqio suddenly announced that he would allow Shesha to 'play with his body' and that he wouldn't be 'foolish enough to trust him with his heart' he gave a sighing sound. Leaning back on the wall he said, "Well now... way to kill the mood, little fish. You should have just given me a kiss, it would have been more pleasant."

Jumping down off the wall he landed right in front of Aqio, taking a step forward so that their noses were almost touching, "You needn't make it sound like a death sentence to give me a kiss, little fish. I might almost think you were trying to insult me or something."

Shesha blinked as Aqio gave him what he would call a kiss in only the very loosest manner. That was... something. Not exactly the best kiss in the world but somehow it was really amusing about it if Aqio was being serious... unless of course he was just messing with Shesha by offering him that sort of kiss. Of course he was distracted away from that as Aqio, a self proclaimed assassin in training, was saying that he was 'scared' and that at least he actually believed for some reason. There was something about the tone of voice he used that made him seem... honest.

"Scared? Of? Surely not me, I thought that you were a big, bad assassin in training... so I would assume it's something else that you fear?" Leaning against the wall in a lazy manner Shesha gave a chuckle before he said, "Surely you must know that nothing ever goes the way that we plan it. You just have to put in that much more effort... or just go back to your 'Mentor' and 'Rider' and let them take care of you forever."

"If you're not willing to draw blood and lose blood you shouldn't stay in Oba, little fish. Surely by now you should know how dangerous and horrible this place can be for the weak."

Shesha lifted an eyebrow as Aqio made a move, doing his best to pin Shesha against the stone wall, and he starred down at him. His painted lips turned up into a bit of a grin as the other mentioned Shesha's disappointment in his lack of kissing experience. Giving a shrug of one shoulder he leaned against the wall in a lazy manner, "Well, of course. Here I was expecting you to be well versed in kisses... but I guess those you've been with aren't interested in kisses? Instead they seem only interested in getting you in trouble by giving you random, foolish tasks to do?"

Looking for the moment lazy and completely in control despite being 'pinned' Shesha asked, "So are you going to do anything more then just stand there, little fish? Or are you still scared even though you've effectively pinned me with no chance for escape?"
