Devil you know

Mojito was pretty wrapped up in his playing, a light giggle pulling from his lips, a light childish sound for one who was as old as he was. It was a moment of levity when he otherwise he spent most of his time brooding. So it was that he didn't notice much, including the woman as she approached. The boy let out a yelp, jumping back as water splashed and a head poked above the water suddenly. He blinked blankly at the woman for a moment, taking a moment to process her words.

"Hi, I'm Mojito..." He was taken aback by the flurry of words that dropped from the woman's lips and he blinked again, a little shaken by the bombardment of compliments. Still a small smile pulled at his lips, the way she was all over him reminded the boy of the small girl he'd met some months ago, his face flooding at the thought of her. He tossed his head a bit at the mention of his horns. He shook his head at her question. "They did a little bit when they were growing in but not anymore." He ducked his head a bit at the mention of his ears, his face flushing again, just like the girl again. "Th-thanks." He slowly lifted his head again, seeing the sheepish way the woman was holding herself now.

"You're pretty pretty yourself." He said, his voice sounding boyish even to his own ears, it was an innocent comment, meant to help lift up the woman and well... he wasn't totally lying but the boy was mostly eager to get the woman smiling again.


"Speech!"
