Glittering water moved through the darkness, trickling its way into the pool. Moon light reflected down upon the water’s surface, making the liquid appear as if it’s glowing; eerie and beautiful, much like the forest it was within. The tune he hummed was one he’d learned, surprisingly, from when he was active within the gambling scene. One of the females he often played against taught him it; for the female lost the bet and had to ‘teach him something new’. Although disappointed at first for only receiving a song, he found that the tune matched this tranquil place so perfectly and he’d begun to hum it without thinking.


Another presence was noticed and panic struck him; he sang little in front of others and normally only in jest, now someone had stumbled upon him humming a beautiful tune in a serious manner. Unsure on what to do, he continued the song; it’s repetitive sound calming him some and after a moment of nerves, he was once more relaxed and over his initial surprise and panic. Cautiously, he peeked out of one eye to look upon the other; a beautiful, dainty thing stood off to the side of him.


Continuing his tune, he hummed it till it’s end in repayment to his compliment; the pale male found it weird for someone, especially one as pretty as the girl before him, to compliment him instead of scorn him and throw insults at him. Once the tune was finished, he turned to the other, hands falling to his side, open and empty in a silent show that he was not armed. Tilting his head, he responded with a simple “Thank you” his voice low and mimicking the calm of the area he stood in.


Turning his head so that he glanced momentarily at the pool, he returned to looking upon the other with clear, blue eyes. “Beautiful, isn’t it?” he asked, a soft smile upon his lips and his voice still low and calming. ‘This place seems to really rub of on someone’, the male found himself thinking, for instead of instantly attempting to hit upon his companion, he found himself complimenting the scenery instead of the pretty female.
