*Her sudden compliance confused him. Was this a trick? He found himself smiling down at her.*
"Giving up already?"

*That smile. It made her feel kinda funny. And sobered her. She lifted her tiny foot up between them, trying to shove him up off of her, but it was a lot harder without the body mass she was accustomed to. She squirmed indignantly.*
“Course not. Just thought you might need a breather.”

*Figwit laughed, the sound surprising him.*
"You'll have to try a lot harder than that," *he said.* "It takes quite a lot to tire me out."

((You know that I know that you do this to torture me, right? ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) )) *Eden's tiny brow lifted.* Oh really?*She struggled all the harder, but made her attacks nonrhythmic and harder to predict. After all, she was built for stamina too, even in this form. He biggest problem was size and leverage. She hooked a leg behind his knee at the same moment she punched her forearm hard into the soft side of his elbow. The intention was to knock him off balance. And in no way to force him down on top of her. Nope, not at all. She'd never...ok, but just a little.*

((Well, yeah. Isn't that what you like about me?))
*In his efforts to remain upright and not be forced off, Figwit misjudged her leverage and landed with a soft "oof" on top of the little girl. He sprang up instantly, his arms holding him above her so they no longer touched.*
"Did I hurt you? I apologize, Miss Eden," *he said almost frantically.* "Are you hurt?"

((That and a hundred other reasons.))
*Eden tried to hide her smile. She was a bit sad that he was gone again. You know, with the not touching.*
"Nah, I'm fine. It takes more pressure than that to break me."
*As disturbing as it might have been, a hint of innuendo laced her small voice.*

*Figwit, somewhat untutored in innuendo and therefore unmoved by it, was merely grateful she was not harmed.*
"I should hate to hurt you so soon in our relationship," *he said.* "It sets a bad precedent."

There's always time for that later...
*Eden blushed slightly and sat up.*
"Ok, well...would you rather do something else then? You know, without the fighting part? Because I'm totally open to new ideas."

*Figwit frowned.*
"Perhaps I need to be more careful. Not because you are young," *he added hastily,* "but because, as a larger being, I must feel some responsibility for my size."

*Eden thought hard about it, but decided she couldn't show her hand just yet. Not even to a hottie elf. She nodded, disappointed, but understanding.*
"But...we can still play together, right?"

*Figwit smiled.*
"Of course. I enjoy playing."

*Eden grinned brightly. That was a start.*
"So...what should we play then?"
*In truth, she didn't really know any non-physical games.*

*Figwit's face developed an adorably chagrined look.*
"I don't know anything about playing," *he confessed.* "Surely there are games in which I will not fall on you."

*Eden looked up at him, lost for a moment in his expression. She wanted to kiss him so badly. He was so strangely gentle and caring and...she wanted that. But Pops words echoed in her head. Never kiss 'em on the mouth. F**k 'em and leave 'em.* But that wasn't what she wanted at all. Not from Figwit. She blushed.*
"Umm...well...we could go on a walk them maybe. I bet you know a lot about plants and stuff."
Ok, lamest pick up line. Ever.

*Figwit's expression brightened.*
"I do," *he said.* "I'd love to show you, if you want to know about them."
*He rose gracefully and offered her his hand.*
