Snippet #1202018

She smirked, those thin lips of hers turning up in an almost painfully poetic smile. Her grey eyes sparkled for a moment with delight. He was witty, intelligent. It has been a while since she was able to banter back and forth with someone to this existent. If there was anything she loved it was the ability to share a little bit of intelligence with this bleak world.

She hadn't really been planning to engage with a male tonight. Alisia had a bad habit of dazzling them with her charm and ending up in dangerous situations. However, despite his "dark past", he didn't seem dangerous. She didn't trust him completely, that would be pure stupidity. She had only known him for a few minutes. But, at least for the moment she felt at ease and decided to just enjoy the conversation. It wasn't like anything else was happening at this place.

"Life is way to short to be depressed. If you spend all your time moping around you miss out on life, and all her perks. I'm too smart for that." A pause and another of her smirks.

"Plus a confident girl always get the guys." A wink. Not necessarily meant as flirtatious, just her personality. It was no wonder she was always getting in trouble.
