"Get out of my way! Do you dare fight a Black Waltz?" A flash of pride washed over the Waltz as Rina got what he was trying to say, acknowledging that she'd never heard such wisdom from a being who knew not of the darkness before now. Although he wouldn't show it, he felt his chest swell with satisfaction, a smirk flashing across his face... if he had lips to smile with. "It's behavior seems hardly any different from the corruption of power in my world. Turns people stupid, monstrous, blind to what they already possess. A force of nature like power. Just the effects of failure to control it are... material." The girl got up from her chair and he allowed her to pass, showing some amount of respect by shifting out of her way. She looked at him strangely when he mentioned he needed a sanctum. He returned the look with a twinge of annoyance, wondering what could've passed over her head. Maybe he used too big-a-words? "Yes, a sanctum. A sanctuary, a haven. This world is as alien to me as mine is to you. Leaving this place would be... detrimental to everyone involved if I were to step foot outside. Do you understand?" This time, he cautiously spread a wing and the appropriate hand out to the side, revealing his crow-talons and wings, not to mention the glowing yellow eyes under a veil of darkness. If the locals saw a creature like him... he might be mistaken for a creature of darkness yet again. He couldn't tolerate enemies until he learned their nature. As much as it wounded his pride to admit, his safety was in the hands of this girl... He wasn't an idiot nor blinded by his own ego. Rina would be an instrumental resource to him in staying secret. "I require use of your home, Rina. Until I can construct a way out of here." He'd conclude, actually kneeling down before her! It was something he had to do... It was what he told himself to make it bearable... Bending the knee to this girl was pathetic... but necessary. Avoiding detection was and is essential to his mission! Curses, he'd have to trust her to keep her trap shut too! Ugh... How much of his well-being must he invest in this woman...? @tag

[attr="class","burst"] [attr="class","whitenight"]❝ Rina’s eyes grew wide and she was pretty sure her mouth may have hanging open a little. Black Waltz 3 had spread out one of his dark wings and one of his long arms, his sharp talons glinting in the low light of her living room. That, along with his shining yellow eyes sent Rina’s heart beating into a frenzy. It wasn’t fear she was feeling though, even though he was quite the fearsome sight. She pushed the odd feelings from her head and focused on the matter at hand. Black Waltz was right. He couldn’t leave her home, not now.
Even though the people here were kind, they had seen enough to know to be wary of strangers. Especially a stranger as… interesting as Black Waltz. His presence would cause a commotion in town and Rina didn’t want that. And her visitor didn’t deserve that. Rina’s cheeks flushed brightly as Black Waltz 3 dropped to his knees, showing her that he was at her mercy. “W-Waltz…that’s not necessary.”
Even though she could hear something deep in her soul yelling to stay far away from this thing (DANGER DANGER), she didn't listen. There was something else stirring in her soul, something that made her want to protect him and help him in his mission. He could stay. Rina could probably use the company no matter how temporary and... unconventional. She was the sort of person who shouldn't have been living by herself anyway. Being lonely didn't suit the girl and made her existence unnecessarily harder. Maybe he'll help me. If I can help him..
Her answer came almost immediately, but she tried to keep herself as nonchalant as possible. "O-Of course. I'm happy to help you. I've been in your shoes before. Well sort of. My feet aren't that big." She giggled nervously and shook her head at her silly joke. "But seriously. You're more than welcome to stay. It'll be nice to have someone around for once. However..."
Rina sighed and looked around the room. She was trying to figure out where to put him up for the night. Her guest bedroom only had a small twin sized bed in it. Black Waltz would probably need three of those to fit comfortably. Her couch wouldn't work either. "Well Waltz. You can take my bedroom tonight. I'm sure the bed would be comfortable for you. I can take the guest bed."
Rina smiled at the man, even though on the inside she was wilting. Hope I'm doing the right thing. | [attr="class","white"] [attr="class","night"] [attr="class","burstmini"]@blackwaltz3 [attr="class","burstmini"]@someone2 [attr="class","burstmini"]419 words [attr="class","burstmini"]notes: n/a |

"Get out of my way! Do you dare fight a Black Waltz?" Black Waltz 3 looked up at the girl strangely as Rina stated his kneeling wasn't necessary... Alien indeed. He had just presented himself to her in a vulnerable position after the shows of power he had put on and she was telling him it wasn't necessary...? On his world, the people (specifically the Queen) he would've knelt too would've told him to kiss their boots after a display like this. She really was a strange one... But her compliance came cheap and such generosity was convenient at a time like this. Seeing as he no longer needed to be on his knees, Black Waltz 3 rose to his full height, watching the girl even more carefully as she exclaimed just how WELCOME he was in her home and that she knew what it was like to be in his shoes. He seriously doubted that. A creature such as he was beyond her ability to comprehend, he knew that with certainty. From his power to his life-span, Black Waltz 3 was just beyond a human's ability to sympathize with. She kept smiling as she WELCOMED his presence, saying she didn't get many guests around here... He couldn't really see why in the short time he's stayed... Her house was... aesthetically pleasing enough and as far as he could tell, Rina wasn't overly unpleasant a person to be around. Perhaps she just wasn't a people-person... It suited her then that he wasn't a person. "I have no need of sleep." Black Waltz 3 stated, though his voice was just a tad softer than before. Gratitude perhaps that she was making this easier than it could've been? "You need not change rooms or waste one on me. You will not need to set resources aside for me. I am beyond such things."@tag

[attr="class","burst"] [attr="class","whitenight"] ❝ Rina’s red lips formed into the shape of a small “O”. She was a bit surprised by this revelation. He…he doesn’t sleep? I guess it makes sense. He said he didn’t need anything to drink either. So he doesn’t need any kind of sustenance? Wow…
Rina found herself again and nodded her way out of her shock. He is just so full of surprises. “Oh? You’ll have to tell me how that works. I mean…you seem so human. But obviously you’re not. Wow. No food? No sleep? Do you even need to breathe? My goodness.” Rina took a few steps towards Black Waltz 3, not wanting to impede in his space, but wanting to be closer. To investigate. See what he was made of. At this distance, Rina could make out every individual feather that made up his beautiful wings. She could see the fine stitches in his robe and idly wondered if he had made them himself. His face was covered in shadow, but Rina could barely make out the shape of a strong jaw. So he does have a face…
Rina flicked her blue eyes up to his glowing yellow ones, but could only hold his gaze for just a moment. Even though she wasn’t that closer than before, the intenseness of his eyes were too much. There was too much power burning in them and it scared her. She wasn’t sure what to make of that, so she glanced up above Waltz’s head, spying the clock. It was getting late.

"Get out of my way! Do you dare fight a Black Waltz?" "I am not a human, like you." The Waltz explained flatly, as if that were an adequate answer. To his knowledge, yes, he did need to breath. His chest rose and fell the same as any other Human creature, and even his body produced it's own heat, though from a much different source. He had a heart-beat, a source of nutrients and energy pumping through his veins... In a sense, he was of a much more superior design to that of a mortal man! The girl made her way up to him, seemingly observing every detail. Specifically, she took an acute interest in his face, attempting to pierce the darkness with her gaze. How... Uncomfortable... the Waltz's gaze shot off to the side as he attempted to avoid those prying eyes, It was... difficult to meet the gaze of someone that would rip you to pieces with their eyes, examining each attribute with interest. Eventually, Rina backed off, stating that she had a job in the morning and asked if she could get some sleep... With only a nod, the Black Waltz indicated that she could, allowing her to make her way back upstairs. Should she head back to her room, 3 would be left alone in the living-room, his gaze casting over all the different items situated within. Yeah... a pretty decent house... (END OF THREAD)@tag
