( Their last conversation had been rather interesting, to begin with, if not a tad scandalous if anyone had caught wind of it. It was just good luck that no one had, and only Hyne knew what they would have thought of her if they had? That she could be a bad influence or something maybe, which granted she could possibly be -though not towards anything untoward, but more like "relax from your responsibilities for a bit" kind of way.

But since that particular incident, well, the topic hadn't come out again, and maybe it wouldn't, or at least not this time, as he had looked quite embarrassed by admitting wanting that, and she wasn't about to pressure him for anything. The man had more than enough on his plate as it was, and this was supposed to be a political visit, not an opportunity for a dalliance, and she was just here with Selphie and Quistis to protect the envoy. She was being evaluated for Hyne's sake to see if the path of a SeeD was right for her.

So Rinoa had let it go and didn't bring it up again, not as if she could with people around, still she had behaved and didn't even tease him about it! Quistis would be proud of her if she knew! No, it was better to let Dimitri decide when and how it happened, and given how much time it had passed, it might be whenever she happened to drop by next, or he could have pursued that somewhere else, the people that surrounded him had been with him for years, after all. )

And that might be for the best, maybe.

( Because honest to Hyne, it's not as if she had experience with what he wanted, but she had been curious and willing to try. More so after what happened with Ultimecia and how the sorceress had violated her mind and controlled her, and maybe she just wanted to have control over someone that gave it to her willingly and see how it felt. It was a complicated array of feelings and some that she couldn't discuss with anyone but Edea.

Maybe it was the mess of feelings that had made her skip dinner and remain in the rooms that had been given to her, silently lying on the bed trying to sleep and thinking that maybe it was for the better that nothing happened, she will be gone soon, and they could forget that conversation had even happened. )

thank you!

( It was sweet that he thought that! But she also had to consider this might not be a complicated thing, as it could only be a one-night thing. But she will deal with that later, and it was a problem for future Rinoa here.

She regarded him for a few seconds before considering their next steps, though she had more or less of an idea. She squeezed his hand back, before slowly letting go and moving towards her bed (thankful her room wasn't one of those big rooms, complete with an antechamber) and lightly fiddled with one of the cords that kept the bed curtains pulled back. )

For this, I'm going to guess that, you want to be on the bed, right?

I think it'd be best, unless you'd rather I be on the floor.

[ He sounds a touch amused at the idea. Although on reflection, kneeling on floorboards sounds very uncomfortable, so maybe not the best idea. He draws away from her and starts to tug his shirt off. There's muscle under there - and scars. He's powerful looking, but that's something they both know already. And maybe he wants to get ahead of the curve. Or show off a bit. ]
