"...What?"

That was unexpected. Though, Aileen did suppose that she was a woman alone in a bar. It was bound to happen at some point.

"Oh. I... Thanks, I suppose." She took a sip of her beer. Aileen wasn't used to men coming onto her. Cuthbert always said it was because she was 'too damn scary.' Well, good then. She would keep it that way.

Oh god he'd messed up. What the hell? Why did he have to say that? He was the Hitoshura! He'd kicked demonic ass across the Vortex World, and he couldn't even flirt with someone? Breathe. Play it cool. Act like you meant to keep going with that.

"I don't meet many people who look like they'd be good at arm wrestling. Have you ever done it before? Arm wrestling, I mean."

Maintaining a straight face was becoming something of a challenge. The slightest smirk curved the corners of her lips.

"Aye, I have." She rarely won, though. If Cuthbert was drunk enough, she could have his skinny wrist on the table in little time at all, but that was it. And of course she had won often when they were younger. Aileen had been a girl to grow early.

...But really, was this man's method of choice truly complimenting a woman on the strength of her arms? Granted, Aileen responded better to having her abilities recognized than her beauty, but... still.

"I had to stop a while ago." Mostly because he kept breaking his opponents' wrists. Whoops.

"So uh. What kind of place do you come from?"

[shewhokills]

Had to... stop? She decided it would be best not to ask.

"Originally, a place called Gilead." Though she doubted it would mean much to him. "It was different than here... Paper was like gold, and books like diamonds. We lacked the... frivolities this place offers, say true." Everything was just... newer, here. Everything in Mid World was old. It had moved on.
