Winter is better than summer [Closed @ Hiyori]
[Gray had a little trouble believing that a girl who was younger than him would know how to be a parent when they didn’t get along with their own parent in life but maybe he could play along for the sake of a peaceful relationship between the two.]
Well, I’m not so sure about the whole being a father thing just yet… but I guess I could use some tips.
[Since they would have to get to know each other, what better moment to start doing that than now? That’s what the ice mage thought and decided that he might as well do that right away.]
Oh right, Robin and I are apparently from different worlds so I guess I should ask from where do you come from and what was your world like. Maybe that’s a good topic to start with.
He clearly had already established some kind of trust with her, which was a pretty decent start in her opinion. However, trust alone wasn't going to get her very far in terms of becoming the most idolized thing in his life. Talking about where she came from was the perfect opportunity to court his sympathy and pity, not that she came from a bad place or anything. She considered telling him the tragedy of that certain day, but that was too personal and the scars were still too fresh. If anything it would scare him.
"Oh, my hometown," She began tapping a finger against her chin, "Well... I didn't exactly live in a single place. During the school year I lived in the countryside with my parents. They were pretty old, so they didn't really understand me very well... I think they loved me though. But..." She puffed out her bottom lip in a pout, "During breaks, they sent me to my brother-in-law's house in the city... But he wasn't home very much, it was kind of scary going to such a big place by myself. I don't know why my parents did that... Did they not want me around or something..? Was I just a burden to them...?"
Expertly, she whipped up some tears. Not enough to begin a full-hearted sob, but just enough to make her eyes a bt watery. She shook her head and looked up at Gray with an apologetic smile, "Sorry, I got a little carried away there. Enough about me! Where are you from?"
