"Hmmm...I don't know if I want Ramses to actually follow through on chopping me to bits..."

*Nightfall snorted.*
"Bah - he's not serious. About anything. Actually he's a manwhore. Flirting with anything that wears a skirt. You should have seen him, he looks like a dork."
*She laughed.*

*He raised an eyebrow*
"I have to say, that's not appropriate behavior for a king."

*Nightfall smiled.*
"I agree. So my twin brother Beraht Cutter and I use to tease him for it as soon as we get a chance. I use to imitate Ramses, and Beraht use to imitate the silly geese he is trying to pick up. We hope that our "subtle" hints finally will get through to him one day."
*She looked up at him.*
"You see, we don't do that to be mean, we do that to show him how ridiculous it looks."

"I say good show. He should be told how ridiculous it is. And who better than the girl that calls him uncle?"

*Nightfall giggled.*
"You really think so? My parents get furious every time we tease him. And so does he. He is not my uncle for real, by the way. I have known him all my life. I think he is a very close friend of my mother, but father can't stand him. I don't know why they hate each other, I just notice they never speak to each other."
((Background information: Ramses and Nightfalls father Sebastian were once rivals and fought about Nightfalls mother Leetah. To this day, they still hate each other.))

"Ah, family history. The many twists and turns that can take, long before you come to the world."
*His gaze turned a bit distant*
"Though, mine wasn't as dramatic as all that."

*Nightfall looked up at him, her beautiful eyes were glittering in the sunlight.*
"What is your history, Legolas? There are so many things I don't know about you. To me, you are an enigma."
*Her voice was soft and warm, but her face expression was more serious than it had ever been.*

*He shook his head*
"I'm nobody. Just a prince who thinks he can out-run everything waiting for him back home."

*Nightfall looked up at him and smiled.*
"I think I recognize that. You and I have a lot more in common than I first thought. I am sorry for everything I thought about you when we first met. I can promise you that I think better of you now. Much better."

"Well, that would make two of us, then. All one needs is time to develop understanding."

*Nightfall smiled and looked up at him again.*
"Have you spoke to my parents after we ran away? Now they have cancelled the wedding and forbid us to see each other. Typical. Just when I started thinking this marriage wouldn't be so bad after all."

*He raised his eyebrows in surprise*
"They cancelled it? But I thought they were doing this to keep you in line. Now they've changed their minds?"

*Nightfall blushed and looked up at him again.*
"Mother was furious when we ran away together. Now they are afraid that I will ruin your pure demeanor with my wild way of living, or corrupt you or something. She thinks this was my idea. And now I'm not even supposed to speak to you. But I do as I please."
*Her blushing deepened and she looked down, not daring to look at him.*
"It doesn't make our cause better that they think I have fallen in love with you."

"Pure," he said, lip curling. "Ha!"
*The mirth disappeared, however, at the rest of what she said.*
"You shouldn't. I'm not right, really, for a girl of Lorien."
