~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Shane nodded in agreement. It was one of the very rare occasion that Shane was allowed to feel something. Peace. That was it. Then he looked back at Alexander, nothing knowing what to answer. "You could say that... Yeah, I guess I am in the military as you put it. Nothing great about it really. And I am sorry to hear about your past. It must have been quite awful, what you went through and all." he said as he looked away. He didn't want Alexander to know who he really was. That he was the second chief in command of Carford's army.
He looked around, not really wanting to meet Alexander's gaze. why was he suddenly growing a conscience? He was the demon wrath in the flesh for crying out loud. He knew that it was bad to be far from his camp. Being in Alderres was making him have emotions. And it was a bad thing. He was Second Rank General Shane Archer Mills, Wrath Demon. Emotions didn't exist for him. Well he thought they didn't.
[/color] "Wouldn't someone be looking for you now? We've been here for a while now. I know I've been lost for more than an hour now." He asked, changing the subject while he was at it. The other being's life was awful. And Shane had felt sorry for him.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote] Outfit: Click Here // Tagged: Healer Alex // Notes: I Can't Believe I'm Lost

Alex supposed that Archer wasn't a very high ranking officer. If he were, he probably wouldn't have passed it off as "nothing great". Plus he wouldn't have let himself get lost, right? Yeah. It was probably that. "It was bad but, y'know, other kids had it worse." Like that girl that Alex had heard about, she had been Mack's friend or something like that. She had gotten knocked up by some other guy from the Academy and they'd been very interested in keeping tabs on her. Alex wondered for a moment what she was up to now. Did she still have the baby? Was she even still alive?
"I at least had my powers to help me through it. Healing is a very underestimated power, y'know." Alex shrugged it off, not really paying attention that he'd pretty much just confessed as to what power he possessed. Archer didn't seem a threat and Alex quickly found himself relaxing around him. Probably a bit too much a bit too soon though. "I only really know of one person here and they know I've gone for a walk. I tend to wander a lot anyway. And what about you? Won't your superiors be asking where you've disappeared to?"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Shane now smiled, healing was no ordinary power. It was one of the few abilities that he respected without saying out loud. It was not every day that he met someone who had healing abilities. And because of that Alexander had earn Shane's unspoken respect. "Wow... Healing abilities are surely not to be underestimated. I won't ever dare harm an enemy that has that kind of skills since it would really be pointless." he said and praised Alexander without having to say it directly.
Then he chuckled and shook his head.
[/color] "No, I doubt they would be looking for me since they sent me out on an errand. And I'll just make up some excuse like I got lost, which I really did and that was why I came back late." He said with a smile and stretched his arms up. It had been long since he had felt free and not restrained. Then he turned back to Alexander, "Would you like to have fun here in this forest with me?" he asked and smiled. He meant nothing ill of it and hoped Alexander would say yes.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote] Outfit: Click Here // Tagged: Healer Alex // Notes: I Can't Believe I'm Lost

Alex could feel his cheeks flaring up when Archer began to talk about healing powers. The teen looked down and inspected his fingernails, a coy smile accompanying his pinkish cheeks. "Pointless unless you're a sadist and into that stuff." He said awkwardly, giving a quick shrug of his shoulders while he timidly picked at his nails. The closest encounter her had to an actual sadist was Melissa from Broadhaven. She had fucking enjoyed hurting both him and Mackenzie in an act of revenge. Luckily Alex's death had been quick and virtually painless that time. Unlike Mack's. Seriously, Alex told anyone half of the things that had happened in that fucked up Academy and he wouldn't be believed. He didn't blame them. Crazy shit happened in Broadhaven. He was glad to be away.
His head snapped up though when Archer suggested that they had a little bit of fun in the forest. Alex's mind was forever in the gutter so it wasn't surprising a what "fun" his thoughts jumped to. His cheeks just burned brighter. Nah, Archer probably didn't mean that. Not everyone thought like Alex so he really shouldn't assume such things. "Fun? I-I dunno... what kinda fun?" Somehow playing games in the forest with an almost stranger didn't sound very safe. Alex consciously tucked a curl of hair behind his ear and gave Archer a half smile before looking back down at his nails.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Shane wondered why Alexander was blushing. Did he say something wrong? Implied something out of the ordinary? Then he frowned for a bit, "Well, I am no sadist. If i were to actually kill someone, i would do it in an instant and swiftly. It's the very least I could do for the being that I am about to kill." he said and shrugged. He didn't like talking about the people he killed. When Shane did kill, it was instant and no hesitation. He wanted a new topic so he was going to answer Alexander's question. He smiled.
He looked around, he scanned the forest and saw that it was very big. He wondered how much of the forest did Alexander know.
[/color] "I was hoping you'd like to explore the forest with me. That's my definition of fun. Nothing hidden beneath the offer. And you can say no if you don't feel like it. No harm done." he said with a smile. Though he knew it was wrong to think that he found Alexander's blush adorable, he kept that to himself. No need for Alexander to know about what he was thinking.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote] Outfit: Click Here // Tagged: Healer Alex // Notes: I Can't Believe I'm Lost

Archer just wanted to wander about the forest? Alex supposed that it wouldn't be so bad. He'd just make sure they stayed on the outskirts - he wasn't too keen on venturing too far deep. One, the forests were scary, two, wild animals lived there, three, they could bump into bandits or rebels and, four, Alex barely knew Archer. The teen refused to let himself think that the man wanted to lead him away to his death. Lord, he was so paranoid.
"Y-Yeah... sure." The teen said shakily, getting to his feet with the help of the tree trunk. He brushed his behind and legs clear of debris from the forest floor and tidied his hair some, even if it hadn't even been messed. "Just... not too far. I wouldn't want to get lost. I-I have work tomorrow, y'know." And Alex knew he was going to need as much energy as he could muster for that.
Alex took a few steps forward and warily glanced over his shoulder. He didn't completely trust Archer yet. There was something about him that he couldn't place his finger on but... it unnerved him. Or it was just his paranoia. It was most probably that. He was in a strange, new place with a stranger.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Shane laughed as Alexander agreed. He didn't want to enter the deeper part of the forest as well. He wasn't scared, he just didn't want to run into unnecessary trouble, a.k.a Alderres' roaming scouts. If they asked for his identification, he was going to be in bigger trouble. He shook off all thoughts out as he walked through the forest. Alexander kept looking back at him so Shane walked beside him and smiled.
"Your feeling on uneasiness is showing, Alexander. What do i have to do to make you feel at ease around me? I already promised that I meant you no harm, had I not? And you know my name and what my job is. You can ask me anything you want... That is if there is anything you want to ask." Shane said with a light smile. He wanted to relax for the afternoon before he went back to being who he really was. A cold blooded killer. Yes, that was what he really was. And this was his break from his insane world.
He liked being around this guy. Even if the other didn't share the same feeling. To Shane, Alexander was a loop in his crazy world. A companion in his little secret world. Yes, this was going to be a secret.

Alex tried not to visibly flinch when Archer caught onto his unease. Was it really that obvious? Most probably. The teen wasn't all that good when it came to masking emotions and truths. He felt a little bit bad. The larger man hadn't really done anything wrong. Just start friendly conversation. There was no crime in that.
A sigh whistled through his teeth and Alex's shoulders slumped slightly forwards while he walked. "Sorry." He mumbled, his gait growing a bit more sloppy and his feet plodded heavily on the forest floor. "You're just the first person I've met from Alderres. I'm still... not sure how to act... what to expect... and, y'know, its all just so new." He confessed in a quieter voice.
Archer had opened himself for questioning if it made Alex feel any better. But to say truths, Alex wasn't sure what he could ask that would make him feel more easy around him. What did you ask strangers without coming off as strange? "How old are you, Archer?" Alex asked, turning his head to look the man in the face. "You seem around... twenty-something? Seven? Eight? I'm seventeen if you're wondering." Well. It was a start. It was a pretty safe question.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Shane kept his smile and waited for the question. "Hmm... It's alright. No need to apologize since I can't blame you for feeling that around me. You meet a stranger in the forest who asked you to explore the outskirts of the forest. I would probably feel what your feeling if I were in your place." Shane said. It was true though. If he was in Alexander's place,he would feel the same thing.
Then he heard the question. That was a tough one. Good thing he looked young. Shane smiled at Alexander,
[/color] "Seventeen eh? So young... And I can tell your working... But as for your questions, I'm like half your age. I'm thirty-six. But thanks for thinking that I'm in the line of twenty. Quite flattering really. Must be my good looks." Shane said as he laughed. Though he had to lie about his age. He couldn't actually tell Alexander that he was an immortal demon could he. It'll either make him faint or running back to town screaming on the top of his lungs.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote] Outfit: Click Here // Tagged: Healer Alex // Notes: I Can't Believe I'm Lost

Archer was thirty-six? In the eyes of a seventeen year old that was... pretty old. His slim eyebrows had climbed up his forehead in mild surprise. If anything he'd thought that the man would be pushing thirty, not over thirty. Archer put it down to his good looks. And so did Alex. They had deceived him.
"It must be." Alex chuckled, the knot of tension in his chest lessening slightly. "You must look after yourself well... or your genes are just kind to you... or both." He just couldn't seem to get his head round how the man more than doubled him in age. It had certainly been rather surprising. Alex suddenly felt a bit younger and more infantine around Archer. The man was in the military, probably weathered some from his experiences there. Alex had just... fucked around? Fucking his life up in the process? Well. Almost fucking it up. He supposed he was doing better now.
"God, you must think I'm such a kid." Alex groaned quietly, watching where he stood with care - he had to be careful, what if there were traps for live game out here? "I'm sorry. Anyway... I asked you a question, got one for me?"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Shane laughed lightly. If this was his reaction to him saying that he was 'thirty-six', how much more would it be if Shane told him the truth. Nope, he wasn't going to do such a thing. Alexander was far better off not knowing the truth for the sake of his life and for the sake of his peace. If he knew, the Alderres Army might take him and torture him for having to have known the real Shane Archer Mills. Yeah, he was going to keep Alexander safe for the time being.
Then Shane shook his head, He didn't think he was a child or silly or whatever Alexander was thinking.
[/color] "I don't think your anything at all. It's normal to have mistaken me as someone younger. And yes, I do take care of myself. Appearance is everything. People will smile if you look great and presentable. They will frown if they see you look like you haven't showered in a week." Shane said and joked. Now Alex offered that he could ask him a question. Was Shane going to take it? Hmmm... Probably not. "Ask me another question and I shall ask you after I answer. I want you to feel easy. Not the other way around." Shane said and smiled.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote] Outfit: Click Here // Tagged: Healer Alex // Notes: I Can't Believe I'm Lost

Appearance was everything. Alex had to agree with Archer on that one. Appearance was pretty much everything for the teen. He could easily spend the better half of a Sunday afternoon just preening himself and make himself look good. It wasn't vanity though, it was just about feeling good in your own skin. "I don't think I'd be able to go a whole week without showering... I'm already itching my skin after three days, forget seven." The teen chuckled boyishly, gripping onto the lower-hanging tree boughs to help him up the rather steep slope they were now tackling.
Hmm. Alex got to ask Archer another question? He was perfectly fine with that. The older man seemed an interesting character and he was willingly letting Alex pry into his life so why not? Alex was going to seize the opportunity to grill him. "Been around Alderres for long, Archer?" Alex asked, swooping a hand down to pluck a buttercup from the ground. He twirled it mindlessly between his thumb and pointer finger and glanced sidewards at the man. "Well, I kinda told you before that they stationed me here just yesterday but... most people seem to have lived here all their lives. What about you?"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Shane laughed in agreement. He could imagine himself not showering after a long day. How much more a whole week. It was just disgusting to even ponder. Then the next question came which made Shane want to groan and slap himself for allowing Alexander to ask him another question. But he kept his smile and knew what he was going to say. It was easy and it wasn't really going to be a lie. Not entirely.
"Yeah, I've been around Alderres for quite sometime now. Coming in and out this place and going from one city to another because of work. I get sent to far off places most of the time. Not coming back for a month or two. Then back again. And yes, most people in every city are usually local residents. Born and raised in the city and most never leave in fear of change." he said with a smile. It was a partial truth. He had been around Alderres since he was sent to scout the area multiple times. He was sent to other places as well. So he wasn't really lying at all.
Then he turned back to Alexander,
[/color] "I guess its my turn to ask you something now... Hmm... Why were you surprise that I was thirty-six? Do I not look like it? And do you think that we can be friends? Just friends I assure you." he asked with a smile as he took up a long stick to swat away ferns and tall grasses in their way.[/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote][/blockquote] Outfit: Click Here // Tagged: Healer Alex // Notes: I Can't Believe I'm Lost

Alexander listened to the man, nodding every now and then. He figured that moving from city to city was a way of life for him considering that he was a man of the military. He probably got assigned to a different post every so often, not letting him be too long in case his work performance began to wane because of monotony. Alex didn't think he'd be able to work in the army. It just wasn't for him.
Alex didn't have to give all that much thought towards the reason for his surprise at Archer's real age. "I was surprised 'cause you just don't look it. You look younger than that." The teen said with a small roll of his shoulders, even if Archer wouldn't be able to see it since he was tailing behind him as the man swatted tall plants out of their way. "I guess its a compliment 'cause you do look really well for your age."
The teen had to give Archer's next question some thought though. Friends was a bit of a large step from whatever they were now. But then again, Archer had in no way passed off as a undesirable person to be around. He was pleasant with Alex and he seemed like a nice guy. "Yeah, we can be friends," The teen said with a smile, tucking the yellow, merry flower behind his ear. "But 'just' friends? You might it sound like either you or I would push for something more."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Shane chuckled as he saw a clearing not far. It looked like a great spot for them to stop for a bit. "Well, thank you for the compliment Alexander. It's not everyday someone tells me that I look younger than I really am." he said. It was the truth though. No one complimented him of how young he actually looked. The compliments he usually would hear are for his successful mission or great job for something he was told to do. He sighed for a little bit. Then he turned to look at Alexander with a smile.
"I said 'just friends' so that you won't think that I would actually push anything. And I know you won't since you might not actually go for someone who is twice your age right? Even if they are young looking. And it's to reassure you that I really mean what I say of us being friends." Shane said as he looked back to the front and reached the clearing. The wind blew by and it felt great. It was cool and gentle and the sunny shone brightly. Shane was probably going to do this again. Sneak into Alderres and stay in its forest for an hour or two.
"So, your turn..." he said. This question thing was fun when it wasn't torturing answers out from the victims.
