Such affections were becoming common practice no? Greeted by arms or lips, draping around another was but the expectation- one Nero welcomed each and every time. Certainly weight of words wouldn’t carry much with their time held, but “A refreshing sight, every opportunity it’s given.” Passive compliment, but digress. One arm gifted itself back without hesitation, a glance to other though revealed the bud held between digits. “With good reason, I assure you. Require but your gaze to admire it once I reveal it.” So? Tilt body to a side till hand could prove lift to carry, as hall’s end held the secret that demanded much of her time.
….Mind everything when compared against the emperor, must be grand. Lifestyle, food, luxuries, she wasted no effort where it could be given and use every bit of power at fingertips when needed. Especially for another. Wagon was rather sizable, composing the size of entire hall’s width.. questionable as to how she’d even fit the feat within it’s walls if thought was given to doors. Though such a thought paled, to what stood before empress now. For that space contained was not empty, but overflowing with the red item. Rose buds, nipped from their stems left them in a purist form. Gentle to appearance as it was to gaze, as she directed to with the rose she held in hand, before gifting to in that moment. “For you, of course.”
A gift was it? But of course her emperor would be so over the top now wouldn’t she? “I suppose forgiveness must be offered, if what you offer is as grand as you insinuate.” Of course she’d forgive her, but why else but double down on such teasing? “You know, whatever it is you have in store, I pray there is some promise of lips laced within it as well?” Arm would readjust themselves as she now curiously gazed to the ends of the hall. “Nero. . .” She’d stop herself, there was little point in asking emperor just how she’d acquire such a thing.
“You spoil me too much Nero, to think you’d successfully woo me with your favorite item. I’ve known the taste you had for such a thing, but this?” Golden hues took in what she thought was quite the wonderful gift. To think the other would go through such hoops just to surprise her so soon? She’d have to begin thinking immediately of a way to surpass her ‘husband’s’ show of feelings. Tail and ears would flick, moving from emperor’s side as hands would move to lift delicate bud into hand.
“Hm.” A soft purr escaped from her lips, moving back to Nero she’d place second bud into the saber’s hand before cupping her own two hands underneath. “Thank you, I’ve no teasing remark this time. Only thanks and of course-” A moment of silence, lips danced forth as soft flesh would peck upon Nero’s own. “I’d hope that a kiss from your empress is more than enough as thanks, yes?” The fact that her teasing was so easily stopped in it’s tracks, a small feeling of dizziness could be felt from how easily Nero subdued her sly ways. . . At least for now!
