You folks know the deal. Event information is here. When people meet, they may just start falling in love when they see a trait that perks their interest. How you play it and how long it lasts is at player discretion.

[Normally he would ignore that hand, shy away from the touch. Perhaps he still would have done if Saleh was more forward about it. As it was he found himself reaching out too, taking that hand and giving it a gentle squeeze.]

I do not understand what is happening but... it is not entirely unpleasant.

[mountain_sage]

I'm...not sure why I feel compelled to do this...but I do understand that people often do this when they...fall in love...

[But even Saleh can't understand just why he's feeling this way...]

[winds_voice]

Love?

[Eley had been struggling to understand the concept for a while now, but when Saleh mentions it... what he'd been told about it does seem to make sense.]

But... I have never felt this way about you before, or anyone else for that matter. Why would this change so suddenly?

[mountain_sage]

I think it might have something to do with this holiday. A holiday about love. There has usually been an experiment around this time where people randomly fall in love. So what we're feeling...may not even be real.

[winds_voice]

[The experiments. Of course. He takes his hand away from Saleh now, though deep down he feels that he doesn't really want to...]

This has happened before? I... apologise. I should not have acted so impulsively.

[He feels so embarrassed he can't seem to bring himself to look Saleh in the eye anymore.]

But what should we do with a feeling so strong? Real or not it is still... there.

[mountain_sage]

[Now Saleh feels bad. He really didn't want to scare Eley away like that.]

Hmm...we can either wait for the feelings to fade...or we can try to make the most of it. I would prefer the latter if it doesn't make you uncomfortable. I would rather fall for you than some others.

[winds_voice]

My mind would normally say that this is... perhaps not the best idea. However, my emotions, my heart I suppose you could say, is saying otherwise at present. I... cannot say that I know what this usually involves, what love really means. If we have no choice then... you would not be a bad option for me either... Saleh.

[And now he's torn between leaving and trying to stay away from the village and any other people he might accidentally fall for, or staying with Saleh for the duration and riding out whatever the Malnosso had in store for them. As such, he's still staying where he is, somewhat awkward and indecisive.

Couldn't this be a good opportunity to find out more about the biggest thing he fails to understand?]
