Letting Loose (Day 6 Early Night The Opal.)

[Luth Khalan]

She sighs and shakes her head. "I think that might be the better way... Everyone involved has an enjoyable time and then goes their separate ways, no trouble."

[Zanebry Varliss]

"For some life styles I'd have to agree, attachments can be a dangerous thing." He tilted his head to the side slightly. "Is that why you're here tonight then? To try and forget about someone?"

[Luth Khalan]

"Yeah... I guess in some ways, it is," she agrees, still keeping the beat, but thoughtful.

[Zanebry Varliss]

He watched her as they danced, not saying anything for a few moments. "In the end the choice is yours. To forget, to remember. To keep someone close, or to throw them away. Attachments are a dangerous thing. They make one vulnerable, do you want to be vulnerable Asra?"

[Luth Khalan]

Throwing them away. The phrasing made her chest and behind her eyes hurt again. "I want to, but I'm not sure I could deal with the consequences for others."

[Zanebry Varliss]

There was a shadow of emotion behind his eyes as he smiled down at her. "There are consequences to all out actions Asra, and honestly you'll be surprised as what you can really deal with. After all ridding yourself of attachments hurts both parties, but if it's what you want..."

His hand drifted up to her cheek,pulling her chin up so his eyes met hers. "At least for tonight I'll help how I can."

[Luth Khalan]

She lifts eyes that look near black in the lighting of the club to his grey and, after a moment of thought, nods slightly. She lets out a soft, rueful chuckle. "I have to try... and if I can't..." She lapses into silence for a moment.

"Well, I'll cross that bridge when I get to it."

[Zanebry Varliss]

He offered her a soft smile, brushing his thumb against her cheek. "You'll be fine, I'm sure of it."

He let his hand fall away from her face to finally settle on her waist. "You're in the lead of this night now, take it wherever you want to go."

[Luth Khalan]

She chuckles and looks up at him. With his hand on her waist, her hands come up naturally and hang a bit loosely around his neck. "I don't even know where to start, never mind where to go."

[Zanebry Varliss]

He pulled her im s bit closer his head dipping in. "Generally you start with a kiss." He murmured before sealing his lips with her.

Breaking it off after a few moments, he smiled slyly, his lips to close to hers. "Then follow by going as far as you dare."

[Luth Khalan]

Her arms tighten a little so she can lift herself enough to meet his lips without him having him bend down too much. When they parted, still close, she ran her tongue over her lips lightly. "I can go with this," she replied with a slight smile, leaning forward and kissing a little way along his jaw. "Though if we want to continue, we might want to find some place other than the dance floor."

[Zanebry Varliss]

"I know a few places close by." He replied, his hand sliding from her waist down and around to settle on her rear. "We can leave whenever you like." He replied, tilting his head and seeking her lips once again.

[Luth Khalan]

She leans up and returns the next kiss, content to let this one go on longer and deeper. The fact that she was essentially making out with a stranger didn't pass by her attention, but if it helped disconnect, it was worth it. And there was the alcohol involved, and really, it wasn't unpleasant at all... not in the slightest. She caught his lower lip gently when they parted this time, letting it go as she pulled back with a bit of a sly smile herself. All the while, they remained moving to the rhythm of the music.

[Zanebry Varliss]

That was all the answer he needed as he started to guide their dance closer to edge of the floor. He'd lean in for one more long kiss, before taking Asra by the waist and escorting her the floor and moments later the bar.

It was probably no coincidence that there were several hotels not far from the Opal, and after a few minutes and a few more lingering Z was escorting the red head into their room. His arms around her and his lips on hers.

[Luth Khalan]

Asra pushes the door closed with a foot as they go, not breaking stride as they head deeper into the room. They shed clothing along the way, some of the few times lips part from one another... or from skin, at least. By the time they reach the room's bed, things are heading into the territory of

Asra's eyes snap open and she inhales sharply, swallowing, looking around to try and get a bearing on where she was. Solid ceiling. Not a desert night. Not a balcony. Laying down. It was okay. She swallowed again, breathing slowly and looking over toward the other person in the bed.

Zanebry. Someone she didn't know well, and definitely wouldn't be on some sniper mission- wait. Asra swore internally and lifted herself onto one elbow. "Z," she said, touching the man on the shoulder.

[Zanebry Varliss]

His eyes snapped open at her touch, and he stiffened for a moment, he relaxed soon enough though as his eyes settled on Asra. "Asra..." He muttered sleepily. "What's wrong?"

[Luth Khalan]

"Sorry... I was out of it and forgot something," she shook her head. "A mutual friend mentioned you might need my help."

[Zanebry Varliss]

He raised an eyebrow at that. "I wasn't aware we had any mutual friends Asra." He murmured softly, his eyes on her. "Could you give a man a small clue?"

[Luth Khalan]

"Amazing rack, plus..." She gestures to indicate lekku.

[Zanebry Varliss]

It took him only a moment to put it together. "So it was you." He mused, mostly to himself, before letting his eyes drift to meet hers. "Could you not mention this to her?" He asked after a moment. "This is supposed to be my last night for this type of thing."

[Luth Khalan]

She nods. "Yeah, I won't mention it... I doubt she'd look at me too kindly for it either," she says with a half-smile and a shrug.

[Zanebry Varliss]

He smirked. "Still it was fun... We probably shouldn't do it again though."

He looked her over one last time, before letting his eyes drift back towards hers. "But, yes I do need some help. I take it you've been filled in on at least a little bit?"

[Luth Khalan]

"Probably not..." She acknowledges with a smile. "Yes... She told me some. Who and what's involved, that sort of thing."

[Zanebry Varliss]

For some reason Z felt those probablies weren't as definitive as they should be, but he let it pass. "Good, mind you I'm not doing this to merely spite him. This sort of thing just needs to be out of reach of both sides."
