Just because you are a Warrior doesn’t mean you can’t be a lady.
She had an immense curiosity about life, and was constantly staring and wondering.
He tasted like midnight and wind, and shades of rich brown and light blue. Colors that made her feel safe and guarded.

It had been a minor wound though long. Yet another one to add to the many scars hidden beneath clothes. This was was just clearly more visible then most. With it not being something that would kill him, he’d taken time to stop for a few drinks. Just how he usually behaved when an injury wasn’t life threatening.
He was paying just enough attention to realize someone had come up beside him at the bar. But not enough to notice right away that it was a pretty woman. He was quick to pull his arm away from her with a soft growl when her fingers touched it. Finally looking over and raising a brow at the pretty elezen.
“Do you always just touch people who might hit you for it?” There was actually a slight hint of amusement to his tone as he looked her over. Though his expression was still more of a frown. “No it doesn’t hurt. Not much does after a few glasses of whiskey. Why are you concerned with a stranger anyways? Unless… You’re looking for a different kind of attention.” Now he smirked as he raised his glass up to take a drink.

Virae was still someone he hadn’t known for very long. Maybe a month now? Yet he trusted her. Like him, she shared the emotional scars of abuse as well as the physical ones. She was someone he found he wanted to protect. As rare as that happened being who Alex was.
She had come by to check on him. Or maybe he had hinted at wanting her to come by for a minor injury. Maybe so he could check on her. Almost not trusting her to still be alright after the scare the week before. Yet too proud to admit that was really why he wanted her to come by.
The moment her hand touched across one of the old scars, a hand reached out and grabbed her wrist. His growl was soft and his grip was firm but not painfully so. He looked troubled for a long moment before pulling Virae close and hugging her. Reminding himself she was still alive.
“Sorry, Virae. Just… Don’t touch those. Please…” He wasn’t ready to let Virae touch those scars. Not yet.

Normally Alex went to Sanagi when he got injured. It had become a regular thing with them now. Today he had her make a house call.
Letting her work as he always did. He was used to her presence and touch. When her fingers traced over one of the old scars… His hand snapped up to grab her hand. His touch though was gentle, yet restrained. A simple reaction because none of the scars he bore was earned gently. A part of him though recognized Sanagi as someone he trusted and was able to keep himself from hurting her.
“Sana…” His eyes looked conflicted as he first looked at her and then down to his hand holding hers. Slowly he withdrew his hand as he closed his eyes. “I’m sorry… I didn’t mean to startle you.”
