our love shines in my heart
Lena's chipper mood made it a little easier to look past the shadows of the forest and the looming threats of world domination. Especially as she put her hair up in a very distracting maneuver that had him grinning. He leaned against a tree to watch, eyes glittering with amusement as she prepared the bow. Zavien didn't know what exactly he'd been expecting, but it certainly wasn't the flimsy bounce into the bushes. His eyebrow raised, already prepared to offer constructive criticism; but how could he wound her pride with a smile like that?
He shook his head to clear the rose tint and stepped to her side to watch Mittens bring back the arrow. Placing an affectionate hand on her head, he couldn't help the beaming smile that emerged. "That was great." Not sure if she even wanted tips on not, he didn't ruin the moment with lectures or lessons, just happy that she was proud of her skills thus far. "Do you want to keep practicing with the bow? I could set up some targets, or be the target." Winking playfully, he offered his hand for Mittens to place the arrow. "Or we could work through more staff practice or some hand-to-hand combat? Since you're so good at the bow already?" This time, he let a little teasing enter his tone, grin lopsided and charming.
