 A blush rose to Memora's face, though, naturally, it was not visible.
"I'm sure it's not terribly difficult." she replied, a bit of sarcasm hinted in her tone.

 Terribly serious, he looked at Memora, studying her before relaxing.
"Then perhaps we should test it," he suggested.

"Well, then." Memora managed to get out, her voice rising an octave towards the end.
Her gaze remained level and she stood tall.
"I have loved you for as long as I can remember."

He watched her for a long while and then finally opened his mouth. "Does this mean my company with other females saddens you?"

She blinked. Unsure of whether to be amused or annoyed.
"I..." she began, then stopped. "I..." she began again, but again, could not finished her statement.
Finally. "Yes."

"Well, saddening a beautiful lady is not something to be proud of," he said firmly and then with a smile and a look at Memora. "Then there shall be no other females."

A look that could only be described as delight passed over Memora's face and then, just as suddenly as it came, vanished.
Her eyes and voice seemed weary, unsure. As if she were trying to figure out if this were a dream or reality. "Do you mean that? Truly?"

"If I am going to pursue my brother's daughter then I better not see any other women," he said with a good tease. "Then he'd really have my head."

Her eyes widened at the mention of her father and she seemed suddenly shy.
"Oh, yes... Him..." Memora shook her head a little, "What will we tell him?"

"That Letho was someone's daughter too," he said, absolutely serious. Nightshade's Fury may be a vicious hunter but his logic ultimately failed. And then he smiled at Memora, stepping closer to him, "It isn't too late to run away..."

A small smile planted itself on Memora's face and she shook her head.
"I tried that already, remember?" she stared up at him, unmoving.
She was quite sure this wasn't what her mother had in mind all those times she told her to find a "nice" man like her father.

"Oh, you wanted to run away from me? Oh woe is me!" He grinned. "Don't lie, I might punish you," he said with a hint of sly tongue.

"Oh, yes," she grinned, "you captured me once. But I ran away again."
She glanced away as if thinking intently about some long ago memory when, in fact, it had been not very long ago at all. "If I recall correctly, you didn't come after me."

"If I chased after you all the time, how would I know if you liked me?" He asked, looking off into the direction of the woods. "Maybe I want you to chase me."

"So you left me standing on the branch all alone, instead." she played at being hurt, but was not a very good actress.
"I might get myself dirty!" she cried dramatically, "Then I would not be much of a lady."
