Welcome to Gaia! ::

When Mareike had signed herself up for a blind date she had envisioned going to a movie or an indoor them park or well something warm at the very least. Also something that didn't require too much skill lest either one of the participants be horrid at it and thus ruin the experience for the other. The last thing she'd expected was to be sent to go ice skating at an outdoor rink and she wasn't exactly happy about.

The maroon skinned spawn stomped her way towards the ice, rented skates dangling loosely from one hand. Mareike hadn't skated on ice since she was very small and that had ended in a bloodbath and lifelong loathing of someone she'd met there. Hopefully this turned out differently.

All three of the young woman's eyes scanned the area for her 'date', not that there were lot of bodies to look past. Most people had stayed inside during this godforsaken weather.

Mareike stared at the freckled boy, he wasn't exactly what she was looking for but he was esthetically pleasing enough for now. she offered a sharp nod and then a fanged smile, "Yes that would be me, I'm Mareike,." maybe it was just because she had a double dose of wrath dna in her now but Mareike was finding today's winter weather ridiculously cold. She refused to shive and show weakness but beneath her coat she was glad for the added insulating warmth of her wings which were also bundled up. It meant she couldn't rely on them for balance but that was acceptable given the circumstances.

" Do you like skating?"

Marieke snorted and shook her head " I don't normally skate period, haven't since I was young." She did roller skate though, she had fond memories of doing so with Taylor and Ebby. Not one to follow the rules Mareike glanced out at the ice then back at Steve while resisting to urge to shiver,she handled heat so much better than cold. " What do you say we ******** this skating thing and go somewhere else?"

Mareike laughed a bit at the boy's babbling or at least to her it was babbling, he was charming in his own way. "Lunch sounds good although I am not familiar with this area or what is nearby," the maroon skinned young woman had no business in this area of the city and thus it was mostly new to her.

" I hope so " That said Mareike began to stalk off the way Steve had pointed, long legs taking her as far away from the cold as fast as they possibly could. They could talk again once they were warm and maybe Mareike could actually find out something about her mystery date.

Mareike stared down at the tentacles, concerned less with their bright colours than the fact that they had fake eyes. She supposed it was their idea, after all every tentacle she had ever known had a mind of it's own. " It's fine as long as they behave, she replied as she reached out a hand to let them shake it of they so desired.

Her third eyes focused on the boy's tiny wings, finding them odd but not unpleasant to look at. Mareike wondered if they'd ever grow or if they might turn out to be ornamental unlike her own metal framed wings which could hold her aloft for short periods of time.

Mareike smiled, amused by the tentacles antics, they were both fairly charming in their own ways. Briefly the wrath spawn wondered what her own tentacles would have been like if she had had any. She tapped the tip of a sharp nail on Natasha and winked at the appendage. " We females are generally known for being nicer, " she murmured. It wasn't always true and in her case well nice was never a moniker she had earned but Mareike could be pleasant when it suited her.
