He broke into a grin, like the big dork he normally was, and tilted his head to the side. “So...you know the way out of here...right?” He asked after a moment, trying to think of how to phrase it. “Because I am sort of lost....” He mumbled the last part a bit embarrassed. He wondered if she did...and if she would bother helping him, because so far in their really short relationship as...whatever you would call it, she had been nothing but helpful and him being nothing but needy, if not demanding. And he wasn't quite sure he liked it. Maybe he could...create a deal? Maybe? But what could he say, if you get me out of this hell-hole I'll take you to dinner? But even the prospect on trying to ask her out on a date was alarming making him nervous. He balled and unballed his fists, deciding he would only do that if she showed...maybe a tad bit more interest. Or until they knew each other more than just their names. Yeah... that sounded least threatening. |

"... Out of here?" She repeated, uncertainly. Slowly, she stood, the motion smooth as silk. Her dress defied the laws of physics to slide along her body and reveal a bit of thigh. She didn't even notice. "... You mean out of the forest?" Technically, I suppose I do, she thought, blinking. It's my forest; I know the limits of it... I know where it ends. "... Um... yes, I think I do... It's a bit of a walk though." She almost didn't want him to leave, even though her senses screamed at her to let him get away before she did something horrible. |

Anything he was preparing to say was totally forgotten when she stood up.... he had to blink hard to stop from staring and gawking with an open mouth. He focused on the idea of dying in the forest instead of making an ass out of himself. “If you don't want to show me, I suppose I could find my way out...” He trailed off, realizing how pathetic he must sound with the slight disappointment in his voice. He rubbed his face for a moment before he looked back at her. “Let me rephrase,” He said in a cheerful-er voice than before, “I would not mind if you decided to either take me out of the forest, or went back to whatever you were doing before you ran into me...” He trailed off, his resolve wavered, once again, because of just her looks. It was almost driving him insane. |

"I - I'll ... help you." She didn't like staying so long in this form, but she could do it. If he stayed in the forest something would get him, her or some other monster. She flinched at the word. Monster. "Just - ... just follow me, okay?" She managed a small smile, and looked around. "Wait one moment." She found the biggest tree in the area and began to climb, agilely. Well, she was a magic creature. Once or twice her hands slipped, but she used her claws to dig in and keep herself safe. At the top, she looked around, making sure she knew which was the best way to go - to keep him safe from the other occupants of the forest. |

Darren watched her, amazed that she thought....to climb the tree to see where they were. Genius! And he was an idiot. If he really stopped to think about it, he could have figured that out himself. He chastised him self for being a moron while she was out of his view, her looks no longer clouding his thoughts. He kept glancing around the foreboding forest, picturing that beasty thing about to jump out and dismember him. He let out a slow sigh, waiting almost eagerly for her return. His hands went back into his pockets and he took out the compass and watched the needle spin in a hopeless circle a few times before it made his eyes dizzy. He put it back into his pocket and didn't even noticed he had started to whistle. |

His whistle was endearing, and she felt herself smiling slightly. Once she'd made sure she knew where they were, she slid down to a lower branch and leapt lightly down to the ground, landing like a feather on the forest floor. The tiniest click sounded as her foot touched a rock again, and she fought not to flinch. "It's - it's that way," she managed, pointing. She nervously clasped her hands at her sides and began to walk, glancing back to make sure he followed. |

Darren jumped slightly at her sudden, silent appearance, and that clicky noise made his song stop cold. He blinked a moment, forcing his panic to stay buried and unimportant, when he pointed, he made a work at trying to stay beside her, so it was easier to not oogle at her while she was walking. Don't stare...don't stare.... He repeated to himself, his hands in his pockets. "I....I'm not really used to being in this sort of situation..." He began, "but I would just like to say, thank you." He told her, defiantly looking into her gorgeous eyes to get his point across, "And I mean it, if not for you I would probably have died by now." Either from some hungry beasty, or starvation, or lack of a brain. But he didn't state that, he just held the gaze, feeling his gratification seeping out of his eyes, much more than he realized he had. He blinked, feeling lame again, looking back down at the ground. Now more confused than before. |

His dark eyes met her own golden ones and her breath caught. Oh, no. Hurriedly she backed away. "It's all right. It's nothing, really. I can't just leave you here." She swallowed hard. "We... We should probably get going. Please follow me." And stay six feet away from the kumiho at all times, she thought miserably. She began to walk again, faster than she needed to, not wanting him to catch up. If he got too close... She didn't want to seduce him! Magic she couldn't control oozed from her body and she wanted to whimper, claws digging into the ground. He'd hate her if he found out. |

The....did he......wrong? His thoughts were just as confused as his face. Did he say something? Did he smell bad? Was there something behind him? Was there a huge spider on his head or something? His brain was pretty rattled as she sped up and he had to fast walk to keep up, and by keep up it was more like he had to hurry to keep her in his vision. She was so lithe, jumping through the trees like she owned the place. That knocked a bit of sense into him. But he wasn't sure why. But suddenly his instincts told him to run, or...not be stupid. Something like that, but Darren was never really good with his instincts or he wouldn't be there in the first place. And besides, she was the only promised way of getting out of this godforsaken place. |

A few hours later, she stopped inside the fringe of the forest, having walked silently in front of him for the whole time. "There," she told him, feeling a strange burning sensation in her eyes. Like they were going to leak or something. She didn't know - but it hurt. Her breath was coming faster too - it hurt to breathe. She pointed. "The ... city's down there." She stayed where she was, planning to stay in her forest where it was safe. And not think about him. Thinking about him made things hurt. He was nice to her. He'd trusted her. Not normal for her; she'd liked it, but she couldn't keep it. |

Darren smiled when he saw the distant lights to the place he knew and loved. Unlike this unforgiving, monster ridden place. And his legs hurt, and he wanted a nice scalding hot shower. He glanced sideways at her. Now time for what he had been mentally preparing himself for. “Would you like to have dinner?” He asked her, his voice nervous. “Its the least I can do for being all Park Ranger on me.” He said hastily, not wanting her to get the wrong idea, even though....there wasn't really a wrong idea he did like her. Probably more than he should, but she saved his life, so he did owe her. At least a free meal at least. He glanced around and realized his jeep wasn't parked far off from where they were now. That sudden discovery gave him slightly more confidence. “I know this great place a few blocks away from my apartment.” He said with a smile. |

Would I like to -- She turned pale, but managed to blush graciously and make it look more human. Blushing was human, right? Slowly, she bit her lip. "I - I don't know..." I don't like the city. I don't like being around humans. I don't have clothing or money. She looked down. "I - I... don't ... make a habit of ... being ... around other people a lot." That had taken a lot of effort to spit out. Other people. Ha. Nimue glanced at him from under her lashes, uncertainly. "I - I'm pretty" what was that word? "Antis--Antisocial." That was it. |

Darren's hopes did a little number on a roller coaster, seeing the surprise and other such emotions running through her face. He smiled warmly, his hopes not being completely crushed either. He wasn't the most social person out their either. "That's totally Ok. It's not Wallstreet or anything." Darren pointed out, not ready to give up hope. "Its a small little diner, off in the residental area. And at this time on Friday night there will hardly be anybody out, promise." His tone was hopeful, and so was his gaze, but he felt growing denial. Why would a woman this beautiful want to hang out with him anyway. She was probably just being nice. Like 'I don't want you to die' nice instead of a 'I want this to go somewhere' nice... |

He looked so hopeful. Her heart sank - and her mother's blood surged in her veins, ordering her to go with him. The combination made her weaken, and she looked down, blushing softly. "... Okay." She managed to look up and meet his eyes. "S...sounds nice..." She smoothed her dress down - did he expect her to wear something different? Damn, she had to ask him to postpone the date so she could ... well... So she could steal money or shoes and not frighten him with the sound of her claws. Apparently he didn't like it. |

Darren couldn't control the happy grin that blossomed across his face, and his eyes. This girl just said yes to him! All previous events of today were completely forgotten as he looked both left and right down the road.... his jeep was....up the road. Yes. To the right! He started walking, realizing she hadn't been following, "Coming? Or would you rather wait for me to get back with my jeep?" He asked, he had debated on using either 'car' or 'truck', but a jeep was neither one. He ruffled his leaf infested hair... "I suppose we could stop by my apartment to freshen up before we go into public." He mumbled to himself, wonder if she heard it. "Not at the same time... I mean...I would never..." He choked to a stop, realizing what he was saying. But he was still flying up there on his acceptance high, so the horror of his perverted words really didn't sink in. |
