Oh, in this night of blue

She turned to look at him after his offer to massage her, a grin flashing his way. Though the look in her eyes burned with a fierceness that was unmistakable. "Oh? You know that might be just the thing I need." Her voice betrayed a bit of a warning, but Ares knew better. Sure he was really, really good at teasing and pushing buttons. Getting under everyone's skin. Annoying them. But to date, he had never put his paws on someone in that manner before and he wasn't going to start now. The only exception was a fight. And, well...chucking objects at people. "Hey baby, I'm all yours!" He flashed another toothy smile, before delivering his crystal onslaught.

"Are you a child?!" He had just reached for another crystal, breaking this one down into pieces just like the first, and stopped midchew. "Depends on who you ask," He replied with a mouthful of crystal. Now that he was chewing this one a little slower, he noticed that it tasted really sweet. Like the summer fruits he often ate in the Orchard near Fireside. As he was readying himself to start another crystal barrage, he didn't notice the woman suddenly grabbing a crystal to throw back at him until he looked up and it was already in the air. He ducked his head just in the nick of time as it whizzed past his ear. The resulting motion would inevitably cause him to swallow the crystal chunks he had been chewing, causing him to sputter as he tried to speak. He looked at her with one, watering eye and a lopsided grin as he tried to play it off, "Damn babe, you sure know how to throw, but your aim sucks!" He teased.
