[Aaaand here. We. Go. He considered just wearing that same suit, but that might have been a tired thing. He could have put on something the Prince would wear -- he even considered it -- but thought better of it. In the end, the settled for something like this, but with less obnoxious socks and the dress pants from the suit instead of Jeans. He still thinks he looks nice, but now he doesn't look overly nice! Or demanding!

Man he's confident but it's possible he under-dressed. Oh Well. Knock, one arm behind his back]

You know, I've never seen one in person, but that doesn't seem far off...

[He says with a small bit of wonder in his voice]

[markofthebrave]

Thanks. They always seemed like pretty dangerous pets to me.

...kind of like walking backwards up a mountain never seemed like a good idea.

1/2

[generalflirt]

The way I see it, walking beside or behind you runs just as much risk, for I could be distracted by some wonderful sight! In front of and forward is also no contest due to the lack of said sights! Thus, for once, I'll be putting my life in the hand of fate!

[with a dramatic set of arm motion and a little finger point to the heavens, before]

[generalflirt]

--Just kidding.

[And he turns to face forward, but glances back at her with a grin]

[markofthebrave]

[Katara rolls her eyes, smiling slightly.]

Very funny.

[generalflirt]

And I believe, it's your second go at an animal guess now.

[As he says this he glances off to the right- there we go. He can see the upper part of a large tree line, the "entrance" of where they're going. He smiles to himself]

[markofthebrave]

No - it's back to you, isn't it? Your guess at an animal in my world?

[generalflirt]

Oh, was that how it was?

[In that case...] Flying pigs. Or... Pig-eons, maybe!

[markofthebrave]

...no. Definitely not. That's just weird.

[generalflirt]

Right, I thought so...

[markofthebrave]

Looks like it's more skipping for you.

[generalflirt]

Or I could try to make myself sound like a pig-eon.

[But even as he says that,he's skipping again, not just along the ground here, but also with alight flourishing kick off a cliff face to the side of them]

[markofthebrave]

...all right. No more skipping for you.

[What a way to end the date that would be, him falling off a cliff.]

[generalflirt]

Awwwww. [And he hangs his head just a moment before snickering and shrugging. He doesn't stop broad and quick movements though, more to keep his blood pumping than anything.]

[markofthebrave]

Serves you right for dancing on the edge of the cliff.

[generalflirt]

[Without missing a beat-] I'm a man on the edge, gotta keep things fresh and furious.

[markofthebrave]

...right. Fresh and furious.

[generalflirt]

Most definitely! [He does laugh a little though, at his own expense. Another glance at that tree line...]

We should be able to see it, soon.

[markofthebrave]

See what?

[generalflirt]

That way. [They're going up a small hill before they'll begin their descend into the valley. I'll have to ask Pi later if we decided on some images for this but basically, a small, fertile, heavily forested valley with a small lake as the centerpiece of it on the far side from where they are. In his opinion, it's a very pretty sight, into in the relative wilderness of Luceti. Doubly so, because at this relative higher altitude even back in November there's a light snow covering on some of the tree tops]

[markofthebrave]

[And so they arrive and Katara looks around appreciatively.]

Is this it?

[generalflirt]

I wanted to call it "Elk Valley," but you could call it "Shikamaru's Rest" or perhaps even "my thinking spot?" It's yet to be named.

[markofthebrave]

It's beautiful.

[generalflirt]

I was hoping you'd say that.

[markofthebrave]

[She gave him a small shy smile.]

Let's go down into it.
