[i]Slowly, the angelic woman blinked again, in confusion, as she had done a few times thus was, in this whole interaction between the two women. It was weird to her, how Irina was acting, what had happened, all of this.. yet a part of her wanted a little more -- and that was something she was going to show. Astra grinned, slowly shaking her head while she moved her left hand to the top of Irina's hand, running the long, slender digits through her snow white hair, slowly, softly, and gently. Astraeus' grin turned into a smile, showing part of her perfect, pristine teeth, while her eyes squinted just a little, as the irises became a literal rainbow of colours, all light and ranging from red to pink and even to purple. What a sight, what a sight.[/i] "Mmh," [i]She quietly broke the silence that had fallen, her head tilting to the right as she thought for a little. This newly formed silence lasted for a good minute, her own blush disappearing in the meantime.[/i] "My fair Maiden, [i]Irina[/i], you're correct there.. Love is a mystery to me still; feelings of affection and romance, too. However, if you want this with me, as I want it with you.. there's something that you should know." [i]Oh, no.. Astra merely looked down at Irina for a moment, letting the words sink in while she continued on with her little ministrations.[/i] "For starters, I'm an immortal; destined to live through the ages and for eternity, until combat takes my soul. Diseases have no hand over me, nor does age, nor the deterioration caused by both. My mind is protected, kept safe from insanity and illness, much like my body. Then, there's the thing that I was [i]made[/i] to do. I hunt those that have turned their backs to the light. Heretics, Sinners, Demons, Spirits, and other ill-minded denizens that roam and inhabit every plain of existence. To devote yourself to me would mean exposing yourself to this all." [i]Certainly, the angel proved to be much more interesting than Irina would have thought.[/i]
