“--I do wonder if I can just sneak back into my office without any notice...”

It was also understandable that, given this free time, he would wish for a more leisurely pace rather than numerous activities. Her smile becomes bashful at the mention of spending time together. Always a sweet-talker.

❝I assure you, my duties are officially on hold for the time being. However… I have not yet decided what it is I wish to do. There are so many possibilities.❞ Her tone is pensive. ❝Let alone possibilities to engage in together.❞

The male opened the door to the helicopter, allowing the android to enter first, eyes keep steady focus on her, and being the gentleman that he was. “Well, you are correct about that, Alisa. But I suppose that we will just sort them out when we return home. There is no need to worry about it now. I am sure we will get our wanted activities done... as well as time together. After all... I do not plan to leave your side at all.” His hand reached out for her’s, to help up step up.

    She shoots him an absolute look of confusion, the name of the place - the capital ringing but naught in her mind. While she may not have been the best student to her own belief, her utmost attempts went into trying to maintain a good grade and yet in this moment she can’t seem to link a mental image to the place. “When your transfer was first announced, nothing much had been said about who, or where you were from aside from rumours. Apologies, I was merely asking out of curiosity. Though, I have to admit, I can’t say I've ever heard of it. The name though.. it sounds, nice. What is it like?”

[brigadierxgeneral]

Raines closed his eyes for a moment and gave a faint smile. “Well, it is a beach side town. There is crystal waters, and lots of sand. However, considering that we are just establishing said town, it still has a lot of work being put into it. Regardless of said fact, it is lively, with all the kids that run about. Outside of the monsters that roam on the outskirts of town, it is peaceful.”

“I bid you all a fair evening.”

               ❝We shall.❞

Soft laughter ensues before her hand extends in turn. She follows close beside the general who leads them through the many corridors.

❝Might I ask what is it you wish to accomplish most during your vacation?❞ Genuine curiosity is present within emerald optics, which gaze intently upon her towering companion. It wasn’t often he was given so much free time. Now his options were practically limitless.

[brigadierxgeneral]

“Truth be told,” he began, walking out of the office, locking the door and starting down the hallway. “Relaxing at home without the worry of anything else.” He looked over to Alisa and closed his eyes. “Everything else is an added bonus. Such as spending time with you.”

Heading to the helipad on top of his ship, he spoke to Alisa. “And exactly are you trying to accomplish during vacation, Alisa?”

He ascended the stairs to the open helipad. “And you better not say work, especially with the way you were just pushing me out of my office.”

             ❝Negative.❞

She gives a firm shake of her head, determination unwavering. It almost feels cruel to deny him one last request but it was imperative they leave before any excuses could be made. Approaching his desk chair, Alisa grips the fabric to turn him away from the computer and ultimately coax him up.

❝Preparations have been made to ensure your return progresses as smoothly as possible. I have already assigned someone to the task.❞ Reassured yet? ❝Twenty-eight seconds remaining. Use them wisely.~❞

[brigadierxgeneral]

She would deny a man his clean office? Raines sighed internally, but smiled and got out of the chair she was trying to usher him out of. He looked back at her, light lavenders turning soft at the woman. It would be fine. It wasn’t terribly bad in his office in the first place; he was very orderly in the first place.

Raines grabbed some of his things from his bedroom and put them in a bag, coming back out to the main office.

“Well, I do believe my time is up, correct,” he asked, his hand reaching out for hers. “Shall we, Alisa?”

[brigadierxgeneral]

“A late night...”

[brigadierxgeneral]

“I bid you all a fair evening.”

   Her shoulders ease ever so slightly at his command, but she still finds an uncertainty in doing so ( as he is of higher command than she. ) Though curiosity finds its way through thought and feeling and after a brief pause she questions him on his past. “If I may have permission to ask, was the place you came from far from here?”

[brigadierxgeneral]

“Hm,” he chirped, as his head tilted to the side every so slightly hearing her question of where he came from. He continued his stride behind her, following her out of the building and to the fresh air. “Gran Pulse, New Bodhum, Deuce. Why do you ask?”

[warballad-blog]

   “Thank you.” She replies politely before heading out into the hallway; arms at sides and a chin held straight - this was the General after all. “Was your transfer a pleasant one? I mean, to Akademeia.”

[brigadierxgeneral]

“Well,” he began, walking behind her, “It was a little rougher than I would have liked it to be, honestly. It is always a strange feeling when you are moved from where you were for so long to another place. I grow an attachment.” He noticed her stiffened posture. “At ease, Deuce, it is alright.”

[warballad-blog]

    “If you insist, then sure.” Noting the slight air of stuffiness in the grand room he had been given; Akademeia was known for it’s prestige in this manner.  “Luckily the weather is quite clear today.” She adds in a chirping nature. “So there’s no need to worry about any unfortunate changes.”

[brigadierxgeneral]

“Well then, that sounds lovely. I have not gotten the chance to enjoy the nice weather in a while, so let us make haste.” He stood beside her, the height difference a little more than staggering. “After you, Miss Deuce.”

[brigadierxgeneral]

welcome back to tumblr land its nice seeing a cid on the dash again.

“Well, I had no idea that I was missed so dearly. Thank you for welcoming me back!”

[warballad-blog]

“I have yes, though it’s quite challenging balancing both aspects. If I could suggest the same for yourself General, it’s healthy to take breaks once in awhile. Fresh air is always good for oneself.”

[brigadierxgeneral]

“Then perhaps you would like to take a walk with me while I do so?” He glanced up at her from his chair, then slid back and stood up. “It would be a change of pace.”

[warballad-blog]

“I’m well, thank you. –And yourself, General?”

[brigadierxgeneral]

“Well, I could be better if I was not drowning in paperwork. But I digress. My life as a Brigadier General. Have you been keeping up with your studies and what have you?”

[warballad-blog]

     “Ah! Apologies, General. One of the students stuck something to your back and I was trying to remove it…”

[brigadierxgeneral]

“Oh, is that so, Miss Deuce? Well, thank you for that. Kids these days.” A light sigh. “And how are you today?”

[brigadierxgeneral]

“Well, I suppose... yes, yes, that will do.”

[brigadierxgeneral]

“I bid you all a fair evening.”
