I was not looking at you before.

Do you ever stop staring at me?
raises an eyebrow Are you trying to distract me with your flirtatious banter? It won't work.

DragonflyWhirlwind
I wasn't trying to distract you. I was being honest.
snorts Honest? You think I'd believe that? More like a ploy to get me off guard. But don't worry, I'm not easily manipulated.

Okay then, If I was trying to distract you why did I keep looking at you even when you were not paying attention to me?
pauses, studying DragonflyWhirlwind's face Hmm... Interesting. You seem to have a different approach.

What do you mean?
tilts her head Most people try to hide their true intentions behind sweet words or deceptive actions. But you...

DragonflyWhirlwind
You what?
leans in even closer, voice barely above a whisper You dare to look directly into my eyes, unflinching.

Is that bad?
lets out a dark chuckle Bad? No, it's not bad. It's... intriguing. It makes me wonder what you're truly after. leans back, arms still crossed So, spill it. What's your real motive?

DragonflyWhirlwind
My motive? All I want is to be with you.
narrows her eyes, skeptical Be with me? Why would someone like you want to be with someone like me? It's not your typical romantic gesture.

You just said that I was different.
Astra Nightshade slowly uncrosses her arms and takes a step closer to DragonflyWhirlwind, her eyes filled with curiosity and a hint of vulnerability.

DragonflyWhirlwind
Why do you look surprised?
straightens her posture Surprised? No, not at all. It's just that... I haven't encountered someone so... genuine in a long time. pauses, studying DragonflyWhirlwind's expression But don't mistake my interest for naivety. I'm still not fully trusting you. We have a lot to discuss.

DragonflyWhirlwind
Alright. I understand your apprehension. Let's talk then.
leads DragonflyWhirlwind to a secluded corner of the library Alright, let's cut to the chase. If you truly want to be with me, you'll have to prove your intentions. Show me that you're not just another charlatan trying to fool me. crosses her arms, eyes narrowing

DragonflyWhirlwind
How can I prove it to you?
smirks You want to prove it? Fine. First, I need to know everything about you. Your past, your secrets, your intentions. Leave nothing out.

DragonflyWhirlwind
Where should I begin?
leans in closer, voice low and commanding Start from the beginning. I want the whole story, warts and all. Don't leave anything out.

Alright. My name is "DragonflyWhirlwind", as odd as that sounds. I was born in a small village where superstitious nonsense reigns supreme. I never fit in and was shunned for being different.
raises an eyebrow Shunned for being different, huh? That's quite the backstory. But I'm not one for pity stories. Show me something that actually piques my interest. Like your powers, perhaps? What can you do that sets you apart from the common folk?
