Namia tore off a small piece of bread, tossing it into the river as a small flock of Koi swam to catch it. A smile came onto her face watching this, and she tore off another piece for them. It was fortunate she wasn't even near the edge, she never wanted to kill fish as cute as these. However, she was getting a tad lonesome.
Before she left for this place earlier today, she'd sent one of her flying imps (green in color) to deliver a message, sent directly to Sain, the swordsman from another world, to come to the river in the east. (considering her homes in the woods, that's a long trek.) Shortly after they'd met for the first time, he'd called Namia his niece in order to prevent suspission, and Namia actually was starting to think she had something of a family again. She knew full well he hadn't ment it, but... not being near him was starting to tear at her.
As she tore off more pieces, to the point she got out a fresh piece for the colorful fish, a pair of horrid yellow eyes were staring at her from the bushes, watching her every move...

"River in the east, eh?" said Sain, as he walked through the meadows en route to thohe Koi River. From the sound of flowing water and the smell in the air, he didn't have much farther to go. This strange place he'd landed at a while ago was so unique, it seemed as if it had everything. There was a city in the middle, he'd heard about a mountain village to the north, and now a nice river in the east. What next?
Sain spared a moment in his mind to wonder what Namia had in mind with this river visit. He readjusted the armor on his body and briefly wished he hadn't taken it. But he didn't have anywhere safe and secure to put it, so lugging it around would have to do.
After a few minutes' more of walking, Sain spotted Namia. "Oh! Hey! Namia!" he shouted, doubling his pace.

Her bangs tilted as she turned around, smiling when Sain entered her sight. Happy to see him, she covered the distance between them and gave him a hug around the waist. (she'd aim higher, but being young in body has its limits.)
"I missed you..." she softly admitted, rubbing against him lovingly. "When I went into the woods and didn't bring you, it... wasn't because I wanted peace and quiet, I just had an errand..."
(OOC: long story short, she chose the woods to bring her mansion, used the dimensional energy around her to help, and sucked every last member of her extended family onto the island. She left Sain during that time.)

"I missed you too," said Sain, as he returned the embrace. He looked around. "What errand was it?" he asked, wondering why she was being so affectionate. True, he held a strong love for her, but he could only let himself go so far. She was below the age of consent, after all.

She looked off, giving the river a glance. "Relocation of my house," she smiled softly. "It took quite the force, so I was trying to relax afterward. But this place doesn't seem to give even the slightest dull moment, Seeing as I sent party invitations and visited the new museum while i had the chance. I'm sorry you didn't get an invite, i limited them to the forest we were in."
(OOC: let's say he didn't go, alrighty?)
The yellow eyes staring in the bushes closed, with them rustling until another small child came from them. If you ignored the brown hair, Ruby pendant, and red colored clothing with slightly visable blood stains, she looked like a paler version of Namia.
"Well isn't this sweet," she said, wlking towards them. "Namia finally found someone to give feelings to. You should be so proud of the achievement."
"Aiman! What... When... H-how long have you been watching?"
"Long enough, Nams. Long enough," Aiman crossed her arms, staring dead at her. She was staring at Sain too, but hardly gave him a care.

"Aiman?" Sain regarded the newcomer. It was true, she looked like a palette swap of Namia. Only colder in personality.
"Well, what does it matter to you, Mistress Cold as Ice, if I treat her like family?" said Sain, defensively, and yet his name for Aiman was not said in spite, but rather in wary respect. "And who would you be to spy on us?" For a minute, the knight wished he'd brought his lance.

Aiman smirked. In truth, she didn't care at all if Namia was treated like family. She was just using her counterpart as an excuse to find some heads to break.
Especially in this world, she could sense a ton of lives.
"Hmmhmhm, to begin, I was spying on a whim," she stated semi-seductively. "And for my identity, well... my true name is Namia Fredrick, just like her."
Namia grew a blush, then explained. "If you want the truth, she's me, but from a backwards reality. A mirror full of dreadful reverse counterparts. You could think of her as a natural born Doppleganger, or an evil twin."
"Doppleganger?" Aiman seemed exasperated, like she was shot with an arrow. "Now Namia, we've known eachother existed for how long? a few hundred years by now? How could you call me, yourself in a distant world, something as horrid as a doppleganger?"
The stares coming from Namia were hateful, but then bloodshot when Aiman said how long they'd known eachother. Uh Oh, she just said it outload, like i wasn't keeping secrets! Now Sain would probably hate me for keeping an important secret like that...

Sain had been trying to concentrate on the girls' flaring emotions, and he had almost missed that important detail. Almost.
Now Namia, we've known each other existed for how long? A few hundred years by now?
"A few hundred years..." he repeated under his breath. The little girl he'd been calling his niece would be closer to maybe his great great great aunt.
If he were anyone else, he probably would have been gravely wounded by this little revelation. But instead...
He was glad. She was old enough, well old enough for him to feel more for her. But she still looked young, so niece would still do.
"Now, now, ladies, let's not get into a fight. You'll mar each others' beauty if you do. And that's just a tragedy." He stepped between them, closer to Namia. "I had a feeling you weren't young as you appeared, Namia, but I had no idea you were several centuries old~" he said almost melodically.

Namia's emerald eyes stared into his. "You... you don't mind?"
"Aaaaawwwww, how cuuute!" Aiman interupted, clapping her hands half heartedly. "Sweet little Namia's crush likes her back. But it makes me sick you care, even after knowing she-er, WE, are old enough to be your gradma's grandma. Maybe even older than that, and you STILL give a care?!"
Namia shot her a grin. "He's like that, Aims. Get used to it. And Sain," She looked him in the eyes again, reaching up to him. "Can I tell you a secret?"
(heh, here it co-omes...)

To Aiman, Sain said, "Why should a lady's age be any detriment to her beauty?" He grinned. "She has the beauty of a young lady, the wisdom of a sage, and a heart of gold." He hugged Namia's small frame to himself.
Then he looked down to her. "What is it, Namia~?"

She looked up to him, and pulled him close. He would probably be kneeling with what she was doing. Namia finally pulled him close enough, and kissed him. On the lips.
Aiman's face bent out of recognition. "What the FF- WHY ARE DOING THAT?! GO GET A ROOM OR SOMETHING BEFORE I-" Without much warning, her stomach gurgled and churned against her will. "Oh God, I think my bananas want to split-!" Her hands went up, covering her mouth as her cheeks loaded up. She'd swallow, but it wouldn't quit, leading to the point it hit the ground.
Namia never left her position, ushering another run from Aiman, this time to the river. Of course, Namia didn't want that; looking away only slightly, she made a root grab Aiman's leg, making her trip.
Finally, Namia let go. she was blushing a little, before finally speaking up. "I'm a little over three hundred years old, 378 in truth," She looked down, seeming... in anguish. "Forgive me if I didn't say anything before, I didn't want you hurt."

The knight allowed Namia to pull him down to his knees. He figured she wanted to whisper something in his ear, and then she kissed him.
Conflicted signals flooded his brain, but he easily decided to relish the feeling. He held her closer to him with his arms, returning the kiss. His mind blocked out everything except Namia, conveniently preventing Aiman's... erm, sudden explosive reaction, from interfering with his thoughts. Damn, but this woman could kiss good. He couldn't let her down, and so he doubled his efforts.
When Namia let him go, he looked at her with a gentle smile. He felt a pang of remorse from her anguished expression, and he gently cupped her cheeks in his hands and lifted her head up to look at him. "Namia, it's all right. You had your reasons, I don't blame you." He smiled tenderly, willing her to relax. "It's okay. I promise."

Her frown quickly became a smile, tears falling down her cheek as she embraced him once more. As she took her comfort, Aiman got up, wiping the sludge off her chin. "Well congratulations," she snarled. "You've gotten a boyfriend before I could. Now enjoy the time you've got together, you little cretins, I can't stand the atmosphere of this little dump anymore."
She lifted her hand, a violet glow allowing her to warp away from them. Once she was out of the picture, Namia turned to him again. "So... since you don't have a good place to stay, would you like to live with me?"

Sain held her tightly to his body, trying to ignore Aiman's vicious words. His hand stroked Namia's back, and her hair. His feelings of affection for her only grew and grew.
"Live with you?" Sain repeated. "I would dearly love that, Namia!" He smiled. "Where is this mansion, again?"

"I chose to put it in the woods," she said, grinning at him. Two small nubs of teeth could be seen where there weren't any before. "That's the best place for me to collect my thoughts."
Walking down the warn path, she quickly stopped. "Would you rather we teleport there? I wouldn't want you to be uncomfortable when we get there, or to where you kept your lance," She looked around him, not seeing it put up anywhere.
