Her cheeks burned at that. Turning slowly to look into the space, she reached in and took a can of pop, thanking him. "I don't mean to bother you," she said, sounding strangled. "I'm just.. curious, I guess. I'll shut up about it."

"I know you don't. Look, I'm sorry but the truth is I'm really not comfortable talking about it," He took out a coke and the small bottle of cherry brandy. He drank a quarter of the coke before topping it off with the cherry brandy. He held up the can as if making a toast, "In vino veritas."

She nodded and did as she said she would. Holding out her can as well, she murmured the toast as well before taking a large swallow. She didn't want him to think she was alienating him, or again like she thought any different of him. Truth me told, she just really didn't know what to say. Asking questions was easy.

Chane took a sip then lay back, reclining on a large pillow. "So, have you ever been on a motorcycle?"

That caught her a little off guard. "A motorcycle? No, can't say I have." Blinking, she tilted her head at him. "You have one? Or was that just a random question to change the topic." A grin slowly made it's way back across her face, which was good. She looked so much prettier when she smiled.

"Both. My wings don't agree with most cars so I drive a motorbike instead. I see that smile! Do bikes interest you?"

She nodded. "Makes sense. Do they interest me? Are you asking if I'm a fast car kinda gal?" she laughed. "I've never thought about them really. Would be totally new experience for me."

Chane shrugged playfully, "You could be the kind of girl who likes fast cars. You could be the kind of girl, who likes the kind of guys who drive fast cars. Or I could just be wondering if you've really got enough guts to get on a bike. But, I guess you're the one who knows the answer to that. Here," he passed her the bottle of cherry brandy, "could you put that away for me? I mean, go ahead and have some if you want but just tuck it in with the others when you're done. Thank you."

She blinked at him for a moment, but did as he asked and returned the bottle to it's cubby. She didn't take any, not because she didn't drink, but because she just didn't want any.
Turning back around to face Chane, she narrowed her eyes for a moment. "Are you taunting me into taking a ride with you, Chane? You know," she said with a grin, "all you had to do was ask."

He smiled, "Teasing. I'll take you on a ride sometime if you want, but not right now. I'm in no condition to take my bike out. Maybe on the weekend? That is if my weekend doesn't get eaten up by overpriced, buggy electronics. Speaking of which I need to phone father."

"Oh yeah? This weekend sounds good." When he mentioned needing to call his father, she got to her feet. "Oh! I can leave if you like?"

"And leave me with out an excuse to avoid phoning him?" Chane shook his head, "I was just thinking out loud. But no, don't feel like you have to stay." Chane stood up and brushed off his pants, "I'm sure the kids need to be tutored, or whatnot."

She gave him a wry smile. "Today's my day off, actually. Hence why I was sitting in the common room bored out of my mind. But, yeah. I can leave if I'm bothering you."

"You haven't been bothering me for a while now," he ran his hand down his left wing in a manner akin to fidgeting with one's hair.

"Oh, so I was bothering you before?" she teased, watching him as he smoothed his wing feathers. "Your wings are gorgeous. Still view obstructing, but gorgeous nevertheless." Taking a seat again, she pushed her hair out of her eyes. "There's a girl in my wing with long wings, but her's are coal black. I like the colour of yours."
