HOTARU
Hotaru smiles appraisingly at the woman's answer. "An observer? And what are you hoping to see all the way out here?" A gentle probe that she's sure the woman will catch, thus her teasing undertone. If there is anything out here interesting or useful to Hotaru, she will find it. A little help and direction has never gone amiss though. Or deception, if the woman is inclined towards it. Perhaps they are kindred spirits in that way. The nameless woman turns slightly to better face her, and Hotaru does the same as she props her cheek up on her knee. It feels like a victory to have prompted a smile on her beautiful face. Hotaru mentally sighs at that realization - she's likely taken or straight, darling. Because when is life ever fair to the beautiful and bisexual?
At least she is granted a name; Morgan, and not just Morgan but Captain Morgan. Her own eyes flicker with interest, a spark that travels through her heterochromatic gaze. At the question aimed her way she smiles slowly, something precocious and dangerous in the edges. "In Caido? No...not yet." She winks and gives a small laugh. "My name is Hotaru. My kingdom looked much like this...I'm always reluctant to leave. Were you born in Halo then?" Or had she risen from nothing like Hotaru had? Invaded a different area, made it her own until nobody could question why she was there any longer?
