Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sabine Hammond

Sabine just looked at David for a moment, unsure of how to reply. She knew, somewhere in the back of her mind, that humans couldn't speak with their minds - and yet she was loathe to reveal her teeth, and the fact that they got in the way of her speech. In the end, though, she decided that it wasn't to be avoided. She couldn't risk giving too much away. "I am well," she said carefully; her right canine caught on her lower lip at the w, and she grimaced as she freed it with a small flick of her tongue. "My name is Sabine." The sibilance in her voice was strong, and it wasn't something she could hide, though at the moment she was rather self-conscious about it. She hadn't really tried to speak out loud for a long, long time.
'A mating ritual? ...That is strange,' she thought to M, canting her head to watch the dancers with more interest. 'I don't understand.'

((Actually, I've heard a little about you, Corinthians. So I was a little excited to see that you'd joined. biggrin ))

((Sorry, I can't really post right now. How do you know me Charlotte? Any relation to Johnathan?))

(( @Corinthians: Yep. We're twins. He was telling me about the rp you guys have. ))

Leeloo saw Violet coming, and was upset. No, annoyed slightly. What are you going to do now? Slap me in the face? She asked her telepathically. You had no right to be so rude. I was merely trying to help. But seeing, as my help is not needed I shall not bother anymore. I will not waste my breath on those who do not appreciate my attempts. She didn't sound angry, upset or sad. She sounded apathetic. It was Violet's own fault. It was meant to be a helpful comment. But Violet had shouted at her, and it had felt like a slap in the face. Leeloo turned to David and smiled, awkwardly. "David, shall we go eat outside? It's getting crowded in here." She turned to look over her shoulder and saw the man. He stared at her creepily and she shuddered. Her black eyes looked at David pleadingly. "I need to tell you something." David was nice. He understood her. So she would tell him.

Leeloo sighed out in relief as she took David's hand and felt the familiar warmth. She walked outside with him and breathed deeply. "I am sorry to keep you from your dinner in such a rude way, but it just grew over my head. And I felt over crowded. It is odd, as I usually enjoy people's company. Now it seems I feel safer and more comfortable with you. Even though I hardly know you. You fell from the sky... like an angel." She smiled slightly. "I wanted to tell you something important. I wasn't sure if you'd believe me. I am... not human. I guess angel is the closest description that makes sense. I am a lab experiement. I... was created to save the world. I was sent to this island as an experiement. Not sure why but I know that I was. It sounds stupid and you may not believe me, but this skin, this face... this me, it is not human. No matter how human I look. I should have told you earlier. But I was scared." She spoke in hushed tones so only David could hear her. She wished he would understand, give her that charming smile and nod.

((I have to go now. Good night, all! ))

With half moon eyes and a full crescent smile, David began to think. Obviously, she was not lying ,for she had no reason to. But why would she tell him such a delicate thing? Perhaps she thought herself too dull to hold a man's attention without telling her deepest secrets. Perhaps she was expecting a favor in return. Perhaps she was uncomfortable with her looks and just wished for him to know that it was no fault of hers. Then again, perhaps all of these were wrong.
Looks had never been what fascinated David about women; although it would never deterr him blaugh . It was their mystery- their transcending insight into things upon which no set of eyes could see. Leeloo would be no different, if not better.
"Leeloo, my dear, you should never fear condemnation from me. I care not what you are. It is not the beauty of your face that in intrigues me- although beautiful it may be- but it is what lies just beyond that: The mind. Forget about dinner. This is much more important. You are more important."
His cheeks rose and his smile was found and he looked down to the small being in front of him.
"It must take great courage to share such things with a person you hardly know. You are to be commended..."

As he looked down inot this small girls eyes, something happened. A sound like a ton of bricks falling from a skyscraper slapped each side of David's face and made him bite down on his lips in protest. David turned his head to the left with cautious eyes. It was there that it appeared. A maiden with long horns and a flowing gown stodd their in the moonlit path. She twirled her long golden main in her fingers and looked over DAvid mailiously. David looked at her for only a minute second before looking again to his true visioned angel. David banked on the chance that if he ignored the horned maiden that perhaps she would disapear. Trying to acted like a sane man, David smiled at Leeloo.
"I thought that I had herd something. Is there anything else that you wished to tell me tonight?"

Her gaze remained fixed upon the table blankely as Leeloo had to comment on Violet's earlier leave. The only thing she could really think of afterwards though was "I never yelled..." Leeloo had turned around to invite the newer man to eat dinner outside, and with that they left, but in one gracious gesture, the man offered her his chair before departing. Giving a silent nod of thanks, she sat down with her gaze still pretty bland as it held no emotion, except the ever so clawing nerves. After a sigh, she cleared her throat to look up at Sabine and M. "How are you two doing tonight?" A smile made it to her face eventually even though it wasn't very heart felt.
