Thread: Nevermore: Neither Here Nor There (Haru & Mally)

Her cheeks turned red. N-No, you dont need to go into detail. I paid attention in health class well enough and even that was torture. Though she didnt care to elaborate since hed probably not understand what a health class was that she partook in, considering this world seemed to be stuck in some fantastical medieval life. It was like Game of Thrones met the Dark Ages met one of her fantasy RPGs. Though it seemed the necessity of sex was the same in any world. It was a true fact that humans were just as much as animals as animals were. Justmore evolved. Sometimes. As she ate, and now she ate slower especially since he didnt seem to be buying her story of having sex loads of times, she smiled uneasily. Maybe not loads of times She murmured. She was only nineteen. How much sex could a nineteen-year-old have experienced? Well that was a subjective topic since she knew girls from school who had lost their virginities between the ages of thirteen and fifteen. Half the female population of her school, which had about three thousand students. Soperhaps a lot of people her age had a lot of sex. Except for her. Unless sex online counted, but there was no actual physical penetration, touching, kissing or anything remotely satisfactory. Yeah, that probably didnt count. She was just really glad she wasnt saying all of this out loud. Finishing her food, she pulled her cup of ale over and sipped on it. It wasnt something shed be fond of drinking often but it was enough to wash down what she ate. Shed prefer water but considering where she was and that there seemed to be no legal drinking age, she was going to enjoy the alcohol. Plus, it gave her some courage to deal with the fact she was in this foreign place. It was kind of exciting, since it was like being in her fantasy worlds she lived for a lot online, but it was also really scary and nerve-wracking. And after her second brush with death, she really wanted to be back home, to know that her brother was fine, be with her family and once more seclude herself in her room for the rest of her life. Because if she actually went out of the house, well this is what happened! She went to a different world! Listening to him as explained the course of action, she nodded her head slowly, absently rubbing her temple with her finger. The dull ache seemed worse the more she focused on it or kept thinking. Maybe she was just really tired. But listening to him was like a chore. Not because he sounded bad or because what he said was of no interest to her. She was just really tired. Yeah that all sounds fine. Although, if it is not as expensive as britches, could I get a dress? She knew what britchesbreeches were and she wasnt a fan of them. Well to be honest, she wasnt a fan of dresses either but shed take a dress of britchesbreeches any day! Could be more believable too if I wore a dress rather than dressed like a scholarly man, especially if I am supposedly sleeping with you. What would people say? You cant get a woman in a flattering dress, so you have to settle for a nerdy scholar? She snorted. I can see well enough without my glasses. Given the unknown circumstances of my arrival to this world, I doubt keeping up with the charade of a scholar would be wise. Might be better to She was thinking of the right word rather than dumb down. Lower my intelligence than to live up to it. So if I dressed more like a provocateur, it could be safer for us both. Like a salty wench, so to speak. Plus, if she was in a different world where no one really knew her, it might be fun to be someone else for a change. Step outside of her comfortable nerdy bubble and do something and dress a little bit more risque. It might be her only chance after all. Might as well find some enjoyment out of it.
