stumbles a bit, accidentally grabbing onto the man's clothes to keep her on foot. She flushes, quickly letting go of him and

mumbling an apology. .///.
Francis
2011-01-07T20:45:29.000Z
scratches the back of his head, a bit embarrassed that he bumped into her. "Non, non it's my fault. Are you alright?"
Sakura
2011-01-07T21:08:56.000Z
straightens herself again, looking up at him once she heard the voice, knowing it wasn't one of her old crew. "Y-yes, sorry I was
Sakura
2011-01-07T21:08:58.000Z
in your way..."
Francis
2011-01-07T21:10:18.000Z
smiled calmly at her. "Don't worry about it, I'm lucky to have run into such a pretty girl ."~
Sakura
2011-01-07T21:13:09.000Z
blushes a bit at that, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. "O-oh.. uhm.." >///<
Francis
2011-01-07T21:14:27.000Z
grasped one of her hands, still smiling. "You must let me make-up for my rudeness, mademoiselle."
Sakura
2011-01-07T21:24:18.000Z
blush remained on her cheeks, almost pulling her hand away. "...m-make it up to me? Oh no, I-I am sure that is uneccessary..."
Francis
2011-01-07T21:31:44.000Z
pulled her hand to give it a kiss on the back before letting it go. "Non, I insist."
Sakura
2011-01-07T21:47:02.000Z
fidgets a little, pulling her hand back in embarrassment. "B-but it was partially my fault..."
Francis
2011-01-07T21:48:20.000Z
shook his head. "It is entirely my fault, I'm afraid my mind wasn't in the right place.~" He referred to the pursuit of wine, of course. Not
Francis
2011-01-07T21:48:29.000Z
other things he usually had on his mind.
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:02:59.000Z
blinks at this, flushing a little still but catching sight of the wine bottle. "A-ah...the pursuit of spirits, sir?"
Francis
2011-01-07T22:05:33.000Z
grinned. "I assume you saw the bottle. Oui, I spent my last coins on this bottle."
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:06:54.000Z
blinks at this. "Your last coins? O-oh dear sir..."
Francis
2011-01-07T22:08:39.000Z
shrugged. "Lady Luck shines upon the French. I managed to land a job not too long ago."
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:17:22.000Z
smiles a little. "Ah, that is good then... and is that where you are from? France?" She had never made it there, but she had heard lovely
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:17:23.000Z
stories about it.
Francis
2011-01-07T22:19:05.000Z
smiled back at her smile. "Oui, I hail from France. A nice place... much better than dreary England. And where do you come from,
Francis
2011-01-07T22:19:13.000Z
mademoiselle?"
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:20:20.000Z
smiles softly, wondering how he and the other gent she ahd met would get along. "O-oh, I am from Japan." she answers, having
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:20:21.000Z
forgotten she wasn't wearing her kimono anymore.
Francis
2011-01-07T22:22:06.000Z
tilted his head curiously. "I had thought that you came from the far east, but I didn't think that far. I admit I have never met someone
Francis
2011-01-07T22:22:26.000Z
from Japan, though I suppose I have now." He chuckled, looking at her.
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:28:43.000Z
smiels shyly. "Y-yes well, it is nice to have met you then.."
Francis
2011-01-07T22:29:46.000Z
blinks. "I seem to have forgotten to introduce myself. I'm Francis Bonnefoy, and what may I call you?"
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:31:22.000Z
"A-ah....just Lily is fine..." she answers, coming u with a fake name in case any of her old crew were around to hear.
Francis
2011-01-07T22:35:36.000Z
"Hm, Lily... You seemed like a flower kind of girl but I never thought it would be that. Ah well. What brings you to the market?"
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:40:38.000Z
smiles a little, motioning to the stand they were beside. "I just... haven't had fresh fruit in a while.."
Francis
2011-01-07T22:41:41.000Z
...normally he would offer to pay for it, to make up for his rudeness, but alas he had no money. Instead... "Would you like to partake in a
Francis
2011-01-07T22:41:51.000Z
bit of this wine with me?"
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:47:18.000Z
flushes a little, but rememebrs to pay for her goods now anyways, and does so. "O-oh sir, that is okay, you rather do not need
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:47:20.000Z
to make anything up to me..." she declines shyly.
Francis
2011-01-07T22:50:30.000Z
"A shame, I was hoping to share it with good company. If you insist though..."
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:54:54.000Z
flusters a little.. it did sound nice, but she didn't want to impose on this man, just for bumping into him accidentally. "I-I am sure you
Sakura
2011-01-07T22:54:56.000Z
have plenty good company to share it with...?"
Francis
2011-01-07T23:01:20.000Z
waved his hand a little. "To be honest, the only person I'm acquainted with here is my cousin, and she is rather busy. I would be happy to
Francis
2011-01-07T23:01:40.000Z
share this wine with you, even that weren't the case."
Sakura
2011-01-07T23:06:16.000Z
fidgets a little. "O-oh...w-well it might be nice, if you really do not mind..." >//~//<
Francis
2011-01-07T23:07:29.000Z
grinned and motioned for her to follow him. "Come on, we should go somewhere quieter for this."
Sakura
2011-01-07T23:08:37.000Z
hesitantly follows after him, nodding. "A-ah, okay..."
Francis
2011-01-07T23:12:08.000Z
led them to a quiet place by the docks, nicer than most of the other parts. He took off his jacket and set it beside him. "I would hate for
Francis
2011-01-07T23:12:30.000Z
the docks to dirty your clothes, you can sit on my jacket if you would like."
Sakura
2011-01-08T03:02:24.000Z
flushes a little. It had been a while since being with a gentleman like this. "O-oh, thank you sir..."
Francis
2011-01-08T03:04:15.000Z
"No problem at all." He took out two amazingly clean wine glasses from his bag and poured a bit of wine into each, giving her one glass.
Sakura
2011-01-08T03:11:56.000Z
blinks at the glasses, figuring he must be the type to always be prepared. She takes the glass, thanking him softly.
Francis
2011-01-08T03:15:19.000Z
smiled at her before raising the glass. "To new acquaintances?"
Sakura
2011-01-08T03:16:10.000Z
smiles a little, raising her glass to his. "To new aquaintances," she agrees.
Francis
2011-01-08T03:17:15.000Z
took a good sized sip of his wine. "Delicious. Not as good as the stuff back home but the finest here."
Sakura
2011-01-08T03:31:55.000Z
sips at her wine like a delicate lady. "Ah, the wine back in France? I have heard they're quite good.."
Francis
2011-01-08T03:34:22.000Z
nodded and took another sip. "It is, it is. How does this compare to the... sake? of your land?"
Sakura
2011-01-08T03:51:19.000Z
hums softly, sipping again to determine her thought of it. "Sake is very different... it doesn't have the same tang as western wines do.."
Francis
2011-01-08T03:52:19.000Z
"I imagine it wouldn't. Do you recommend it though?"
Sakura
2011-01-08T04:12:28.000Z
smiles a little. "Oh yes, I quite enjoy sake. If I had some, I would share with you."
Francis
2011-01-08T04:13:36.000Z
"Perhaps I'll come across some in my travels then. It would be nice to sample the great spirits of the world before I die."
Sakura
2011-01-08T04:18:24.000Z
hums softly, and nods. "Planning to do quite a bit of travelling then?" she smiles.
Francis
2011-01-08T04:19:12.000Z
nodded, taking another sip. "Life is too short not to, in my opinion."
Sakura
2011-01-08T04:20:04.000Z
nods. "That is true. Seeing the world is quite a thrill.."
Francis
2011-01-08T04:25:37.000Z
"It is. I feel bad for those who are forever tied to their lands. There's so much more to see in the world."
Sakura
2011-01-08T04:29:37.000Z
nods, silently contemplating the fact her travelling days were likely over. "It is true... you are a traveller yourself then, I assume?"
Francis
2011-01-08T04:42:20.000Z
took another sip of his wine. "One could say that... but I'm more of a... wanted person? For my safety I left Europe, not that there was
Francis
2011-01-08T04:42:26.000Z
much for me there anyway."
Sakura
2011-01-08T04:58:33.000Z
blinks at that, looking up at him. A criminal? Having been on a merchant ship for many years taught her to be wary. "W-wanted?"
Francis
2011-01-08T05:00:28.000Z
"Don't be concerned... I just slept with one too many nobleman's daughters. Nothing bad, they just weren't too pleased with me."
Sakura
2011-01-08T05:06:21.000Z
nods a little. "O-oh, I see..."
Francis
2011-01-08T05:09:35.000Z
"I
Francis
2011-01-08T05:10:16.000Z
"I'm a perfect gentleman though, I assure you. I won't make any unwanted moves. They had all wanted it after all."
Sakura
2011-01-08T05:12:07.000Z
flushes a little, after all he had been nothing but nice to her so far. "O-oh....so you are quite popular with ladies then, I assume?"
Francis
2011-01-08T05:15:36.000Z
"The ladies and the men, I suppose. It's just that some ladies are more... obvious with their interest." He snorted as he remembered one
Francis
2011-01-08T05:15:45.000Z
that practically dressed like a harlot.
Sakura
2011-01-08T05:24:02.000Z
arches a brow at this. "...o-oh my..."
