A Chance Encounter (Noir/Closed)

[Astra Luxun]

Astra giggled again as she looped her own arm through Noir's and planted a light kiss on her cheek. "And thats why I love ya. I hope we will make many more memories there in the future." She replied as she would go with Noir towards the city.

When the city itself was visible through the trees, Astra would point to a tall building that seemed to actually be one of those special apartment buildings that only one side of the it had outside decks.

"Im about the 7th floor from the bottom there." She said, as she pointed to a deck, where a window was actually open. "Whoops, I left the window open.... Say, if we can get up to the deck, you could probably easily reach in through the window, and unlock the patio door. Right?" She asked as she looked over to Noir.

Astra's back patio didnt have much in the ways of furniture, just an outdoor firepit, a table and a couple of chairs with an umbrella. Nothing special. Plenty of room to spare for anyone flying if they needed a place to land.

[Noir]

Noir wraps her arm around Astras waist “Well lets go then” She flicks back her arm launching it easily extending and latching to the deck and slowly elevating them “Sometimes I wonder why I even learnt to fly when this is so much more fun.” With a flick of the wrist they are hoisted to the deck “Hmm yeah I probably could reach through the window and unlock the patio door or I could do this” She puts her hand on the door and her finger seems to flatter slipping through she wiggles her fingers around Astra has no idea what she did but the door clicks and opens easily a soft lavender scent wafting out from the opening “Hmm lavender eh? I wonder how it compares to my scent”

Noir smirks triumphantly “Uh don’t ask what I did, cause If I am completely honest I’m not 100% sure what I did myself. Good thing this body is a bit of a marvel.” She holds out her hand and bows down like an usher “After you Milady and welcome to your humble abode” She giggles as she plays the role.

[Astra Luxun]

Astra eeped as she was launched onto her patio. When her feet touched down, she said "I dunno if I will ever get used to that." as she laughed.

She waited for Noir to unlock the door, and smiled again as it took no time at all to unlock it. The familiar scent of her home greeted her nose as she took a deep breath. "Ah, Home Sweet home." She said, as Noir was chivalrous and was letting her go in first. "Thank you hun... Ya know, one day, you will probably be carrying me over the Threshold." She said, looking back to Noir with a playful wink as they would enter the apartment.

To Noir, it would look partly like the mansion she used to reside in in her past. The Decor was quite victorian in theme, a large full bookcase one one wall, a sword on a wall stand beside it for easy grabbing. Though this sword wasnt a normal one, as it had its own faint aura, and its design was definitely not of this Earth.

All the lights weren't standard either,as the lights on the roof, there were no bulbs, or conventional indications that normal electricity was even used here. There was instead a orb being cradled by rocks with odd runes on them. It seemed to be the same with every kind of light source like a lamp would be. No Visible light switches near them or anything. Strange devices.

Noir could not only smell the Lavender in the sweet, but the entire room had its own faint magical aura that she could sense if she tried.

In a corner was a headless mannequin that has Astra's royal attire. Turquoise in colour with white vertical stripes, as well as white pauldrons with some decorated tassels with solid rubies. There was even a red cape attached to the back of it. It certainly looked like something royalty would wear.

"Well, What do you think hun? Its not the most fancy thing you've probably seen, but this is my home."

[Noir]

Noir steps in and begins soaking in the atmosphere standing still for a minute. This place seemingly tapping into a deep sense of nostalgia for her, though it is very hard to tell from her face whether that is good or bad nostalgia. She seems to shiver a little in the presence of so much ambient magic and given her gummy physique its very obvious she does so. “its odd familiar yet alien like going to a store in a foreign country I recognise it but everything seems a little different.”

Noir continues looking around with almost childlike curiosity her inherent like for the concept of magic showing through. This immediately draws her to the sword her fingers twitching and skin getting goosebumps just by being close to It “My what a strange sensation this blade carries, it is certainly something powerful” she seems to draw closer to the sword but instinctively backs away from it a slight look of confusion on her face that she swifly shakes off.

Noir continues looking around “I see no bulbs and things like that, given the atmosphere here I’m going to guess that magic is involved somewhere down the line?” As she turns around she encounters Astra’s regal wear she looks it over with a fine eye noticing the detail and craftsmanship she even lets her mind wander imagining Astra wearing it herself in comparison to her casual clothing here. “Well this place most definitely feels like the home of a princess, its such an odd experience to be in a place like this.”

[Astra Luxun]

Astra remained silent while she let Noir enter her apartment and start to look around. Well, it was their apartment now.

She watched as Noir looked at every little thing and stopped at her sword. Seeing her odd reaction to it, and hearing her comment on it, Astra came up behind Noir and responded with "Skofung. That is the name of the blade my father gave it. It has a dual enchantment. The blade is never rendered broken, and is never dull. My Father gave it to me to help protect me. It is one of the very few items I brought with me from my home."

She then noticed Noir start to look around and make a comment about there being no light bulbs in the apartment. To which Astra replied "You are correct. Its a very simple enchantment that is activated by both intent and vocal commands. Ill show you." as she walked over to one of the odd devices that looked like a ball being cradled by 3 odd stones near the sofa. Astra just seemed to look at the device as she uttered a single word "Lux" which made the ball levitate a few inches off of the rocks, and start to glow, giving off a soft light identical to what a regular lamp would, as well as an extremely faint aura of magic.

Looking back to Noir, Astra smiled "See? Nothing to it. It doesnt give off any heat, or take up any energy." She said, as she noticed Noir inspecting the clothes she had worn from her timeline. "Heh, Those are the clothes I was dressing you up in in my mind earlier this morning. You can try it on if you'd like." She said as she came up beside Noir, and put her arm around her waist.

Kissing Noir in the cheek, Astra said "It may be some getting used to, but my home is your home my love. Your welcome to stay here as long as you like."

[Noir]

Noir continues looking at the dress intently, her eyes gazing forelornly at it as memories return to her mind. Images of the daughter of the house playing dress up with Noir a variety of silly and colourful costumes to display. Noir smiles a little talking quietly to herself “It certianlly has been a long time since those days. Longer still since I played dress up”

“well if my princess envisioned me in these clothes far be it from me to deny her that fantasy” She smiles as her skin shifts and her clothes neatly drop to the floor leaving her stood in front of the regal clothing naked “Hmm I wonder” She takes it of the mannequin and seems to just pour herself into it. It fits her form rather well despite being tight around the chest. Noir raises her arms looking at her self as she shows herself off to Astra finishing with a flourished twirl letting the cape spin out only to be gracefully pulled down. Noir looks a bit out of place in clothing like that but she does seem to have the baring right as she smiles at Astra “Well what do you think princess?”

[Astra Luxun]

As Noir suddenly dropped her clothes to the floor, Astra bent over and picked them up. It would of been rude to just leave her clothes there.

As she looked up, she saw Noir pick up her clothes and fit herself into them. Having a fantasy come true, Astra watched on in awe as Noir tried on her outfit. As the cape gracefully came down, and Noir asked Astra what she thought about her in the regal outfit, Noir could see that Astra might as well be drooling due to the way Astra was starring at her.

She shook herself out of the stare, and smiled "It looks perfect on you hun! We are definitely going to have to get you one as well when we go to my homeworld!"

Her smiled turned into a smirk as she walked up closer to Noir and put a finger on her chin. "Ive heard Terran fairytales about a handsome prince sweeping their princess off of her feet, and carrying her to a Happily ever after. And seeing you in this outfit, makes me think you are my prince" She said as she gave Noir a playful wink.

"Wouldnt you agree?"

[Noir]

Noir smirks “Oh you think me a prince like figure my dear? Oh no” She slinks behind her running her finger down her cheek “You see princess you are not the only one with magic here” She slowly runs her finger down her neck as she moves close Astra can feel Noirs warm breath on her neck as she talks slowly and softly. “I am the rogue my dear and with my words I can entrance even the most beautiful of princesses who stand before me”

She spins Astra around pulling her close by her hips so she is positioned to be staring directly into Noirs eyes almost hypnotically “When I find only the most beautiful of princesses do I enact my plan and steal their heart as I sweep it out from under them” She spins around picking Astra up suddenly holding her close to her chest “For you see I am the Prince and the Thief rolled into one my princess. My spell is sealed with a kiss” She kisses Astra deeply even concealing them in the cloak to add to the scene she was spinning

[Astra Luxun]

Astra made a soft eeping sound as Noir whispered in her ear. The hairs on the back of her neck stood up as her eyes went a bit wide. Noir was playing to one of her childhood fantasies, and Astra was powerless against it.

"Y-You think Im beautiful?" She asked as she blushed again. "Oh by the gods, give me the strength to withstand all these compliments by my lover..." She thought as she was suddenly spun around and pressed up against Noir's chest, looking up into her eyes with a gentle smile.

When Noir acted, she really seemed to be into the new character, but when she mentioned sealing 'the spell with a kiss', Astra blushed as she knew what was coming next. And sure enough, Noir's lips locked with her own in a passionate kiss.

Closing her eyes in the passionate moment, she didnt even notice the cape covering them up. Her tail flickered a bit underneath during the kiss, but moments later, Astra broke the kiss with a smile as she said "I love you Noir."

[Noir]

That caught Noir off guard and for once completely has her on the backfoot, besides the dream she occasionally has no has ever said those words to her. For a brief moment for Noir time seems to stop Astra can feel her heart start racing as her eyes gleam with a combination of happiness and excitement never had she realised how much those words could mean to her.

She holds Astra close squeezing her against her body letting her emotions brim for a moment as she stares longingly into her lovers eyes. She sounds a little nervous and a little undone but she manages to compose herself “I love you too Astra” she says a sweet blush forming on her dark cheeks as she says it with a bright warm smile plastered across her face.

[Astra Luxun]

Noir said words she never knew she was waiting to hear them, until they were finally spoken. "I couldnt be any happier then being with you." AStra said, leaning in and giving Noir's lips a teasing lick.

Nothing could spoil their moment together...untill...

Astra's stomach growled again. This caused her to look very embarassed as she giggled. "Whoops, Totally forgot about us getting some food. Ehehee" She said blushing a bit before pulling back from Noir.

She slipped backwards under the cape and stood up. She placed Noir's clothes on teh nearby table, incase she wanted to change back into her own clothes.

She then walked into the next room, which was fairly open to the living room they were just in. The only separating the kitchen from teh living room was a bar that had a few stools at it to sit on. "Would you like anything in particular? Besides me of course." She asked as she stuck her tongue out at Noir playfully.

[Noir]

Noir giggles at Astra’s stomach growling “Oh yes we did intend to get food didn’t we, hmm I must have been distracted or should I say captivated?” She says with a sly giggle and a knowing wink. She follows Astra into the kitchen looking around at what this place has to offer as well.

Noir ponders “now what would I want? Hmm the lack of necessity Makes it easier to try anything but that leaves me with so many choices. Hmm decisions, decisions.” She sits herself down at the separating bar facing Astra “well if you are not in the options then I suppose I’ll have you surprise me then. I’m sure whatever offering I get from you will be lovely” Noir playfully sticks her tongue out back in response to Astra doing it before giggling creating a bit of a silly image with the regal clothing yet sticking her tongue out.

[Astra Luxun]

"A little bit of both you tease." Astra replied as she stuck her tongue out, then turned to start digging around in the fridge. Having to bed over again to look on the lower shelves.

With the comment about Astra not being on the menu, She blushed yet again, and looked back at Noir, who was most likely checking out her butt again. "Are you always this insatiable Noir? Or am I addictive or something?" She asked as she giggled.

Figging through the fridge, Astra cam across a few pieces of chicken and potatoe wedges and a macaroni salad she had brought home the night prior, but hadnt touched it since she fell asleep reading a book. "Ah, you like chicken?" She asked, as she brought out the boxes and the salad container. She then walked over to her small wall oven and turned it on as it then began to preheat. "I got 7 pieces of chicken, a box of potatoe wedges, and a large Macaroni salad. Is that ok?" She asked as her tail grabbed the fridge door handle ,and closed the fridge.

[Noir]

A little bit of both Princess” Noir retorts even mimicking her tone when Astra asked if Noir was insatiable or herself addictive. For once Noir isn’t checking her out she is sat elbow on the table chin resting in her palm watching Astra from the distance with a contented smile on her face thinking maybe this is what it is like to have someone to call your own someone to care for and be cared for by.

Noir nods gently “That sounds lovely Princess it has been so long since I last ate chicken…..” She pauses “like 5 years man that really has been long” She giggles rubbing her head awkwardly “You can tell I really don’t eat much unless it’s a special scenario but I suppose if its made by you then it automatically makes it special now doesn’t it?” She softly giggles with a warm smile as she says this.

[Astra Luxun]

Placing the chicken and potatoes into the oven to heat up, Astra wandered back over to Noir, and sat across from Noir at the bar. She reached other and gently took Noir's hands and smirked. "HEh, what did a girl like me do to ever deserve someone as great as you, Ill never know. I must of done something right in a past life or something." She said as she loving gazed into Noir's eyes.

"I do hope you will consider staying with me. Im not sure I could bear being apart from you now." She said as she gently picked up Noir's hand, and placed it on her cheek as she seemed to mutter 'So soft and sweet. Reminds me of gummy bears...' as she closed her eyes, and just enjoyed Noris touch and smell as the scent of the chicken and potatoes would eventually start to fill the air as well. It was very obvious how much inlove Astra was with Noir.
