Unexpected Surprise! (Draconian)

[Anonymous]

People milled about, going about their daily business as if there were nothing more important to them.  Their children yelled and screamed at their feet, begging either to be picked up or for some sort of treat they knew their parent was carrying.  Other people peddled the goods that they had made or brought with them to town in order to make a quick few pieces of gold.  It was the everyday monotony that often made people go crazy in their later years of life.

It wasn't so for Isis however.

Though she had come to Arca to showcase her own talents and abilities for the public, she couldn't understand why people would want to deal in the common merchant trade every single day of their lives.  At least with her dances, she was able to express herself more freely and change things up a bit when she wished.  With the others, they had to sale the same items, make the same merchandise.

With a sigh and shake of her long raven locks, Isis made her way to the common area on the outer part of Arca.  The midnight blue cloak on her shoulders, which hide the intricate blue and white skirt and band of cloth tightly binding her chest, fluttered in her wake as her heels clicked on the street.  Cerulean blue eyes scanned the crowd around her, taking in the goings ons.

It didn't take her long to reach her destination, as she had performed there many times before.  The musicians that she usually worked with weren't there yet, but she had gotten there for her own reasons.  She wanted to stretch and prepare herself to perform for the masses.

Shedding the cloak, Isis let out a soft sigh.  The air was cool against her skin and felt especially good after the long journey she had taken to get there.  She was happy to be able to relax a bit before her dance.

Hm.

Ashley closed his eyes for a moment, the one thing he left to himself that he refused to allow the servants of his household do, was the shopping. A cloth bag was held at his elbow, his long black hair was loose down his back, the tendrils of wind picking it up and tossing it over his shoulders before it settled back down around his waist.

The bag was quite full, vegetables for Dai mostly. He never did care for the vitamins they could give him. A sly smirk rose on his lips as he thought of that, pushing a long fingered hand into his one of his pockets Ashley wandered around. Not one to normally do this, Ashley would currently be too busy looking for a meal for himself, but something drew him towards this place.

His light blue eyes were distracted by a young lady in a dress.

A rather lovely dress.

Ashley pushed his hair over his shoulder and wandered over, his foot steps quiet against the ground, his towering form at least a good half a head above most of the people. Ashley looked like quite the gentleman, his features were smooth, his eyelashes framed his eyes, his lips were pulled into an almost smile.

Quite the pretty girl.

"Hello."

His eyebrows were drawn upwards and his face was pulled into a gentle smile down towards the girl. Ashley was slightly confused, having never seen anyone doing this, and what Ashley could only assume, would be live entertainment. He tilted his head a little and shifted the bag on his arm. "What are you doing, Little Girl? Are you aware it's dangerous to be out and about alone half naked," even though she didn't exactly look half naked "with no escorts?"
