Welcome to Gaia! ::

Miquote smiled at her, not minding that she has no shirt on, but giving her the same respect and looking at all.
"Hey, I'm Miquote. I honestly thought I was the only one who knew about this little private beach."
He blushed.
"By the way, you shouldn't worry about the whole being in your underwear thing. I'll give you the same respect as you will give to me." He smiled.

Miquote smiled and chuckled.
"Oh don't worry, My brother always said I had a petite body too.
You shouldn't be embarrassed."
He pauses and smiles.
"How about we swim to shore and we can chat a little more?"

Miquote followed her to shore and took out his ponytail letting his hair loose. He sat down and as the waves crashed against his feet and he starred out into the horizon, waiting for her to but her clothes back on.
"Like I said, there is nothing wrong with being petite."

"You are only breakable if you let others break you."
Miquote turned to look at her.
"I used to be very nerdy and anti-social.... I used to have glasses and the whole nerdy look. glasses, old shoes, a tie, etc. Jocks stuffed me in lockers, gave my wedgies, bullied me a lot."
He looked down with a sickened expression.
"But by the time I got to my senior year I wouldn't let them break me any longer. Sure I was nerdy, I still am. I changed my apperance, and everything. I can skateboard just as good as any pro, and I'm stronger." Miquote paused again.
"You can't let others drag you around and tell you what to do. Because that's what makes you feel small, and weak, and breakable.
I realized this while studying an ancient form of the human mind."
He scratched the back of his head.
"I'll probably be the biggest History nerd you'll ever meet."
He smiled at her, his sickened expression going away.

Miquote chuckles.
"I already said I wasn't looking. I was looking at your eyes the whole time. I told you, I'd give you the respect that you'd give me. I didn't look at you once while you walked onto shore. You saw me didn't you? I didn't look at you. Unlike those pervs that stare into the girl's locker room during P.E.... I'm not like that."
Miquote's expression grows serious and he digs his feet into the sand.

Miquote lay back in the sand starring strait up at the sky.
"Heh,...well... you need to be careful with the people who you think you love. Sometimes they act, only to take advantage of you."
Miquote looks down.
"Yes, someone has taken advantage of me....so I'm always very careful."

Miquote looked at her and blushed a little. His leg hurt from the pressure of her hands pushing down on his leg.
"A girl, she used me to find out my secrets, to play a horrible joke on me with all those bullies. That's when I realized I needed to be strong, to never again let anyone take advantage of me. And to protect those who are being taken advantage of. I won't let that happen to anyone else. No matter how well you trust the person...no matter how well you think you know the person...you never truely know."
Miquote sighed grabbing a handful of sand.

"There is no need for violence. You shouldn't be getting your hands dirty for my cause. What was done is done...that's it...I'm just more cautious now. But... I know I can trust you... I can sense that I can trust you...and if I can't then... that is my fault once more..."
Miquote paused and stared up at a cloud.
"I'm careful with whom I trust. I can't even trust the teachers.
A lot of people here... I don't trust well unless I sense a connection."
Miquote stopped and sniffed the air. He turned to her.
"Someone's coming, I enjoyed our chat but right at the moment I must return to my dorm." He bowed and kissed Kaori's hand, running off back to the dorms.
