“Can you blame me? The only compliments I had ever gotten prior to you were strictly work based, about my internal organs or were from my dad,” she rolls her eyes, but she does smile, teasing was something she could put up with, as she often could dish it out. “…” Though, her cheeks redden immediately and she seems to shake for a second, stammering before…she runs away, of course.

He cracked a smile at that. “Well I have no interest in your internal organs. Except maybe stealing your hear- ah, hey wait! Nimue, where are you going?” He let out a sigh before he began to walk after her. She’d tire herself out eventually.. probably.”

“My goodness, if I wasn’t getting used to them, I’d probably have ran off by now,” she chuckles, although she had physically relaxed upon his fingers moving from her hair- the next words he spoke made her freeze, red tinting her cheeks yet again. “God, you say that as though it’s normal to say…I’ve told you how embarrassed I would be to be painted. I’m not a model, I’m a detective and that’s easier than being a model in my thoughts….”

“You say that like you don’t still run off sometimes when I do it..” He said, teasing her with a laugh. At her other remark though, he tilted his head. “Well.. I am an artist after all. It is rather normal for me to want to paint things I find inspiring.” He wasn’t even intending it this time, it just sort of came out.

“Do you have to keep complimenting me?” It had always been easy to fluster her, she wasn’t used to compliments, insults just rolled off the tongue of most when it came to her. “Thanks, Alex- uh, you really like peoples hair then?”

He gave her another smile as she asked that. “Well, I suppose I just can’t help myself sometimes.” He said as he finally released her hair. “Ah, not particularly. Though yours is rather nice.. something I think I’d like to capture on a canvas.”

“Ah, I don’t know about that.” He said as he continued to mess with her hair and gave her a warm smile. “I’ve always thought you looked quite lovely with your hair this way. I wouldn’t ask you to change it.”

Well, she was sort of used to people not really following her.

At the mention of Fenrir, though, she rose her eyebrows.  “Um, Fenrir was the name of one of the guys from Odin, those people who made all the monsters and things like that.  He was killed in a fight, though.” As far as she knew.

“Really? Perhaps I was mistaken then.” He said as he leaned back. “Though, take it from a vampire, dear..” A grave look crossed his face. “Not everything that should stay dead does. I’d be careful if I were you.”

“Uh huh!  They’re all really powerful.  And having the Sailor guardians here really helps, too!  They’ve saved the world!”

He paused at that. “Um.. sure.” He said, not really understanding what she meant by sailor guardians. “Oh, by the way, I met your friend Caleb recently. He’s.. rather eccentric.” He shrugged. “Seems to have an interest in Norse mythology. Kept muttering something about Fenrir.”

She nodded. “I know better than to go looking for danger.  Daniel and everyone else wouldn’t forgive themselves if I got hurt or died.  And Yuki would be lonely again.” She smiled.  “I just think too much sometimes.”

He shook his head. “Seeing how stubborn that Daniel boy is, he’d probably die before he let any of you die, that much is obvious.” He shrugged. “But I’m sure everything will turn out fine.”

“I guess.  It’s just hard not to feel inadequate around a bunch of people who can lift boulders and set things on fire with their minds.”

“I suppose it would be.” He said as he returned his arms to their folded position. “I would suppose just do what you can.. within reason, of course. Don’t get yourself hurt.”

“Um, well…” She gave him a sheepish smile.  “Just one time, and it’s not like it was even intentional, you know?  I just… I know I can’t really do anything, but I want to protect everyone…”

Graham’s facial expression didn’t change, but he moved forward and placed his hand on her head. “Don’t worry. You may not be physically strong, but you’re strong in your own right. I’m sure they’ll need you more than you realize.”

She tilted her head, thinking about that.  “I don’t know.  They don’t tell me much.  I think they’re worried I’d want to do something about it.”

“Well.. do you have a habit of putting yourself in dangerous situations?” A pause. “You know, I think I already know the answer to that question. Although, perhaps they don’t know much about it themselves..”

She laughed.  “Yeah, a lot of people came out to see Yuki,” she said.  She moved her bags around and sat beside him.  “Yeah!  Um, I’ve heard the sailor guardians have been helping out the Power Rangers.”

He folded his arms. “I did notice them on the news. But I thought the monster attacks had slowed after the destruction of that city. However.. what’s causing them to resurface? I wonder..”

She giggled at that.  “Um yeah!  Me and Yuki were at an anime convention with a bunch of our friends.  They must’ve gotten the Shudanshi table in one of the pieces about it.”

“Ah, that must have been it. Your table seemed rather popular.” He said as he put the book he was reading back into his pocket. “You’re staying safe, I hope? There have been more frequent monster attacks recently, I’ve heard.”

She started giggling at that.  “Um, I have encountered a few, actually.  I guess I just attract magic, huh?  Which is weird since I don’t have any myself…”

He shook his head. “Why am I not surprised? Oh, I saw some photos of you on the internet, by the way. Something about a convention of sorts?”

“It’s fine…I suppose we’re close enough that I can give you permission to do things such as that, so long as you don’t, you know, go overboard. Forehead only.” She nods, cheeks reddened as the embarrassment of saying such things was too much- Jesus, solving murders was easier than this!

He gave her a warm smile as she spoke. “You know, as much as I enjoy this, I must say.. I enjoy your reactions a great deal more.” He said, amusement in his voice. It was incredibly easy to fluster her, it seemed.. He was going to continue doing it.

“Hmm?” Miyuki had been picking up a few groceries after the convention, considering while preparing for it, she and Yuki both had sort of let the apartment get bare.  She quickly waved, putting her bags in one hand to do so.  “Graham!  I haven’t seen you in a while!”

[donotfearthenight-blog]

Graham was quite content reading to himself, when he was spotted by Miyuki. “Ah, hello Miyuki. It has been a while, I suppose. Staying safe, I hope? You haven’t attracted any more supernatural creatures to yourself have you?”

He smiled at her embarrassment. “Ah, apologies. I was so enraptured by your smile that I just.. couldn’t help myself, I suppose.” Partially flirting, but at the same time, he did mean it. He truthfully wasn’t sure what made him decide to do that.
