WC: 315. Damn you xD. I GOT WORK TO DO, YOU KNOW >:[


Giselle was taken aback by his surprise at her request, and he looked at her like she were some pale ghost. A twinge of hurt crossed her light colored orbs, but it melted away like early morning dew. The female bit her lip as the knight asked the question incredulously, and she nearly began to doubt her inquiry. "Well, yes." Her voice was unsure, matching the tall male's skeptical tone. Like a mirror, she turned towards the male as his body turned to face her, and the woman's hands fell to her lap. A bright smile made ringlets curtaining her head bounce with delight, at the acceptance.

Grasping both of her own hands together, they flew towards her chest. "Yay~!" She exclaimed, as happy as a child that was about to receive a gift. Giselle loved to learn new things; while Silvano and others practiced sword-fighting or medicine, she loved the gift of speech among other comely habits. Dancing eyes scanned around them, a myriad of possibilities swimming before them, just waiting for a translation. But Silvano saved her the need to choose, as he closed the elegant book and lifted it up for her to see.

The multicolored male spoke a word, as flowing and beautiful as water ripples. Giselle narrowed her eyes, as if the words would pop out before her. "Oon.. unh.. leebro!" It was foreign upon her tongue, the words being pronounced delicately as her lips moved to form the word. Whether she got it right or not, the pale princess was delighted all the same to learn. "Oh, it sounds so much better when you speak it," she chimed, her tail draping around her side. It came natural to him, but as she learned to speak with her companion, with time and patience the knowledge would come. "Another!" Giselle demanded, though eagerly, leaning forward and folding her hands underneath her.
