RP with black_jacques
Jacques: *wandering through the castle with his hands in his pockets. He stops by the lake, gazing out into the water and suddenly notices someone sitting at the edge* Aila!
Aila: *hears Jacques and turns to smile at him, she waves* Hey! *giggle*
Jacques: *walks over to her* Mind if I join you?
Aila: Of course you can! *motions to her basket* I packed a lunch - usually people come by to chat but it's been so quiet lately that nobody's really stopped by. I'm glad to see you, though. *smile*
Jacques: *smiling as he takes a seat* Yeah, we haven't had lunch like this in a while.
Aila: True. I've not seen too many people around the castle, and the people that I do see are new. Well...not all new - Jimba came back! *happy squee!* It's been so long since I've seen him and...speaking of people I've not seen lately, have you seen Hugo anywhere? I know I saw Stallion running around but I haven't seen Hugo...*scratches her head*
Jacques: That's good to hear about Jimba. It's been a long time since we saw him. As for Hugo... that is strange indeed. He never made himself so scarce before. Perhaps he's gone off to do some traveling.
Aila: I wanted to think that too, but he and Stallion are supposed to be travelling together to see the Karayan Elders. Me myself, I was thinking he went to go see where Fubar's been lately. *nods*
Jacques: Hmm... well just as long as he pops in soon so we know he's alright. *smiles slightly and looks out into the water again*
Aila: Oh, and did you hear? Apple's getting married! *squee*
Jacques: Yes I did hear. *smiles lightly* That's good news. Another wedding in the castle. It'll get livelier soon.
Aila: And I get to help plan for it - you know, the flowers, the food, the decorations...Jacques: Really? Well you do have experience with Queen's wedding. It sounds stressing. *smiles at her*
Jacques: Hmm... well just as long as he pops in soon so we know he's alright. *smiles slightly and looks out into the water again*
Aila: It's not that stressing if it's fun, though. Besides, I'm sure I'll have [lots] of help. *looks over at him, grinning*
Jacques: Yeah I'm sure there are quite a few people willing to help out for such a big event. *smiles obliviously and looks at the lake*
Jacques: *after a moment of silence, he feel Aila's gaze on him and turns to her* Oh! You meant... *blushes slightly* Sorry... I dind't know you meant me.
Aila: Well, I'm sure you wouldn't mind helping, would you? *eager smile*
Jacques: No, of course not. Just... tell me what to do. I don't want to mess anything up. *anxious look in his eyes*
Aila: Well first, I have to talk to Apple at some point to see what kind of decorations she wants. But mostly, I could use your help setting up tables and chairs for the reception. Last time we only had 3 people to help out with all the chairs and tables.
Jacques: Just as long as you don't leave me alone. *smiles*
Aila: I don't intend on it. *leans against him happily*
Jacques: *leans on her too* Do you want to dip your feet in the water? *hopeful look*
Aila: Ooh. I do! *starts taking off her sandals*
Jacques: Alright. *tries to sound complacent but can't hide his excitement. He quickly takes off his boots*
Aila: *starts off for the shore of lake, giggling*
Jacques: *finally succeeds in pulling off his boot and throws it over his shoulder, following after Aila with a smile*
Aila: *sticks her toes in and shivers a little* I wasn't expecting it to be this cool...*slowly puts her entire foot in*
Jacques: *stumbles and accidentally splashes Aila* S-Sorry...
Aila: *squeaks, the water splashing over her and looks to see if Jacques is okay* You allright?
Jacques: Yeah. *Laughs a little* It's a bit cold but it feels good.
Aila: *nods and wades in to her knees*
Jacques: *Follows closely, being careful not to step on the hard rocks underneath* These rocks are dangerously slippery sometimes...
Aila: *holds out her hand to him* We won't go out much further. Not if you don't want to, anyway.
Jacques: *reaches her hand and clasps it* We can go a bit--- *slips and falls backwards into the water, pulling Aila with him* Aaargh!!
Aila: *squeaks again as she goes into the water*
Jacques: *shivers as he sits up, completely soaked* That was not good... *Laughs nervously as he looks over at an equally drenched
Aila* You okay?
Aila: *sits up, shivering a little as well* I'm fine. Just...wet. *giggles*
Jacques: *smiles* You still look cute.
Aila: *kisses him, giggling*
Jacques: *blushes and smiles slightly* Well, We cooled off at least... even if it was unplanned.
Aila: We better enjoy it while we can before it gets too cool. *chuckle*
Jacques: Yeah... *looks down at the water and smirks*
Aila: *hears Jacques and turns to smile at him, she waves* Hey! *giggle*
