Yumi sat on Yuuki's shoulders watching people zip around the rink, she was practically buzzing with excitement which was not unusual for the pixie, since everything was a new experience after her head injury which caused her to lose her memories. Yuuki laughed at her excitement "Calm down Yumi, I would not want you to fall and get hurt." he said full of mirth and warmth even though it was down right frigid outside. "Do ya think... they'd let me do that?" Yumi asked acting some what shy and reserved which was uncommon for her "Well if they had skates in your size maybe, but we can always ask." He said with warmth as he smiled at her

Yuuki Approached the rental counter and asked the lady behind the desk if they had skates in the pixies size, she nodded and went off to get them. Yumi had jumped off his shoulder when the lady had confirmed they did indeed have her size and was now buzzing around above his head  "You keep going that fast and you're gonna get dizzy again." he said with a grin which you could see the blush on her cheeks as she slowly settled back down on to his left shoulder clearly embarrassed. Yuuki Reached over poked her cheek " You know I was only teasing you." He said warmly as the lady returned with the skates and handed them to him. Yumi's embarrassment was gone the moment she seen the skates and the excited buzz she had earlier had returned as Yuuki made his way over to a bench to help her put the tiny skates on.

Yumi glided down off Yuuki's shoulder to come to rest on the bench for before sitting down and kicking her legs excitedly 'She's just like a kid somedays.' Yuuki thought as he unlaced her boots and set them neatly under the bench before slipping a ice skate on her left foot lacing it up and then doing the same to the right "You know, you're probably gonna fall a lot, Right?" he asked curiously as he glanced at her eyes to see her honor colored orbs were more vibrant than usual "Probably.....But it looks so fun!" she said with enthusiasm as she tried to stand up before Yuuki stopped her knowing full and well if she had she would have fell flat on her face.

Yuuki picked the pixie up by her tiny little waist and placed her on the other side wall into the skating rink which had rails that were adult and child height for beginners to hold onto "Yumi, if i were you id hold on to the rail until you get the hang of it, other wise you're just gonna be miserable later." he said warmly she gave him a quick nod before taking off while holding on to the rail. She was kind of awkward at first as she lost her balance a few times but holding on to the rail kept her from completely falling, eventually she made a few laps around the ring before  she got brave enough to let go of the rail and from that point forward there was no stopping her as she began to zoom around the rink.

Yuuki Watched fondly from the rail wishing that was something he could do but at his impressive height, he did not think it would be wise for him to be out there, mainly because if he fell he could really end up hurting some people and Yuuki was against senseless violence; He was never one to start a fight but he would be the one to finish it or at the very least they would remember him. Yuuki rubbed his hands together before blowing on them trying to warm them up, he really should have bought some gloves at one of the stores before coming out here.

Yuuki had been watching Yumi dart around the rink and she seemed to really be enjoying herself, Yuki wondered if someone of his size could move around the rink so effortlessly or if he would just be a inconvenience everyone around him by just being in the way in his inexperience. Yumi skated to a halt at the rail in front of him beaming with a happiness that reached her eyes "Yuuukiiiii, are you gonna come skate?" she asked curiously as Yuuki thought about her request "Probably not Yumi. I am more of a risk to others out there at my size." He said warmly and genuinely as he reached down to pat her little head 'I cant even hold the rail.' he thought to himself.

Yuuki had been so focused on Yumi he had almost missed a familiar leggy form glide out on to the ice 'Sophie!' he thought excitedly to himself as he felt his pulse quicken touch as he watched her pick up speed and begin a series of jaw dropping acrobatics before coming to a stop in front of him Yuuki was in awe and she glided up to the rail, Yumi however let out a barely audible 'Hmph' crossing her arms and looking away jealously. Yuuki didn't know it but the little pixie had not been able to get a wink of sleep when the two of them were last together and had to suffer their flirtatious exploits for she did not want to embarrass Yuuki.

Sophie seemed to playfully welcome them to the ice as Yumi skated away jealously leaving the two alone "Well I certainly did not expect to see your gorgeous self out here." he said giving her a warm smile as he reached out to attempt to playfully boop her nose "I will admit I was wondering when I would get to see you again after are Joyan date; however I am delighted you are here." he said warmly as his sapphire like orbs locked on to hers his eyes alight with mischievousness as he wondered if things would escalate from their previous encounter.

"I will say you surprised me with that acrobatic series you just performed." he said in a warm and genuine manner "Do you perhaps think you could teach me how to skate? I would have been out there already but the rails too short for me to grasp." he said sheepishly and hoping that him asking her for guidance was not something that would turn her off from him.

Yuuki smirked as Sophie's words as she teased him about his surprise and her thinking he had intentionally sought her out "If only I had known where to look." He said giving her a playful wink as his eyes glanced down to catch her hiking up her skirt and rolling her thigh high down which caused Yuuki's pulse to quicken as she showed off her guild mark to him, but said situation was quickly allowing his mind to wander into more intimate territory, luckily for Yuuki Sophie spoke yet again dragging him for away from such carnal thoughts and desires, at least for now anyway.

Yuuki's ears twitched at her playful chiding as she feigned outrage at Yuuki's previous praise "To be fair our previous encounters have been more intimate in nature and less suited for showing off talents." he said warmly with a taunting smirk. Yuuki couldn't deny the fact that he found her strikingly beautiful and not just her face and long legs, though both were highly alluring, but Yuuki also found her witty playfulness and sense of humor highly attractive as well as she was able to stimulate his mind and not just his visual appetite as well; which was something Yuuki found refreshing and enjoyable.

Yumi blushed at Sophie's question as she was not exactly privy to Yuuki's carnal wants or desires as it was something that rarely came up in conversation she did how ever know one or two things "Yuuki likes long legs, pretty eyes and witty humor." she said to Sophie in an attempt to get back at Yuuki for openly flirting with Sophie as she shot Yuuki as teasing smirk "Oi! Yumi why you got to out the things I enjoy." he asked in mocking surprise his ears twitching as he gave Sophie a playful wink.

Yumi ignored Yuuki's question as her plan had backfired and instead of embarrassing Yuuki she was now embarrassed her face flushed and warm. Yuuki's attention was diverted off the pixie when Sophie began to tease him about not knowing how to skate asking if it was his first time which caught him off guard causing his cheeks to slightly flush red as his ears twitched more Yuuki was about to respond to her teasing when she took it a step further telling him that he didn't need to worry as she was gentle with cherries as he blushed a bit more at the innuendo indicating she maybe knew of his inexperience; however Yuuki was not gonna get off balance so early as he fired back with some teasing of his own "Oh? Looking to take more than one first time are ya?" he said teasingly and with a wink noticing that she was biting her lip as she offered her hand which he gladly accepted as he let her take the lead as he wondered what he would do if she actually did attempt to take his first time.

Yuuki smirked slightly as she teased him about his opinion of what intimate was "I mean, we could always find out." Yuuki said with a grin that met his eyes as he wondered too himself if he actually could handle her after a few drinks, recalling their first encounter where she had him off balanced the entire time, although most of that was thanks to Yumi's mischief which gave Sophie the wrong idea or opinion about the pair, when in reality Yuuki thought of Yumi like a little sister, thought Yuuki was uniquely curious how the bubbly upbeat woman would act after a few drinks.

Yumi still smirked with a almost haughty look on her face when Sophie spoke in surprise at Yumi revealing some of Yuuki's preferences in women to the much taller woman "He also likes his ears and hair played with." Yumi said with a Cheshire grin up at Yuuki in response to him chiding her about outing his likes before her attention turned back to the taller woman who seemed to offer an alliance as the small pixie noticed the wink and grin at the same time "Sure why not! If Yuuki wants to flirt in front of me like this, I have no problem telling you his deepest darkest secrets." she said with a wink as she floated up and sat gently on Sophies left shoulder.

Yuuki's face flushed a tad red at Yumi stating he liked his ears and hair played with, information he was sure Yumi found out when he had been drinking as he was a talker when drinking. "Uhhhhh." was all Yuuki was able to utter in embarrassment as Sophie guided him out onto the ice and stating Yuuki wouldn't be the first with little context to tell him which first time she was talking about, Yuuki hoped she meant it was not the first time teaching someone how to ice skate however it certainly could have been taken in another manner which just the mere thought off made Yuuki's face feel warm and he could feel his pulse quicken.

Yuuki wondered what would happen if the two ever genuinely ended up alone together and just how far or fast things would proceed when his musings were cut short when Sophie yet again spoke confirming his suspicions as she indicated for the ice either, while also seeming to hint that this wasn't the first time she seen a cherry popped on the ice causing Yuuki to gulp at the implications his mind not even on skating now as felt the warmth of his hand against hers as the tempo of his heartbeat seemed to increase with in his chest "Um... err.... are you talking about me or perhaps someone else ?" Yuuki asked in a nervous but curious tone as Yumi noticed the embarrassment on Yuuki's face she leaned down to Sophies left ear and whispered "Yuuki's a Virgin, he gets shy at even the talk of coitus." she said impishly and only loud enough for Sophie to hear.

Yuuki blushed visibly at Yumi revealing what he personally enjoyed and the platonic places he didn't mind being touched "Y-yumi." Yuuki stuttered his face radiating such a warmth he thought he would melt as Yuuki noticed Sophie nibble her bottom lip wondering what she planned to do with the information Yumi had just given her as there were plenty of possibilities, and based off their prior interactions Yuuki was slightly worried how she might act on that information as she was definitely not one Yuuki would consider shy in the slightest.

Yuuki noticed the Cheshire grin on Yumi's face and Sophie commented about Yumi being the devil on her shoulder causing Yumi to giggle as she gave Sophie a high five with her tiny hand "I know all kinds of secrets about Yuuki. He tends to talk in his sleep." she said with a mischievous giggle. That was the first Yuuki had heard of speaking in his sleep and if that were the case what had he uttered in his sleep that Yumi would have heard or even remembered and the thought of this slightly terrified Yuuki. "D-do I now?" Yuuki asked with a slight nervous stutter as he gave Yumi a mortified look.

Yuuki tried to calm down as Sophie answered his question about if she was talking about his cherry or someone else, she basically stated that it was just a little prior experience which made Yuuki wonder what kind of experience she was indeed referring to as he felt the warmth starting to leave his face as he noticed the grin gracing her beautiful face as he also noticed a look in her eye that confirmed which kind of experience she had been referencing which caused Yuuki to swallow hard.

Yuuki was trying to gather his thoughts and regain his composure when seemingly out of the blue sophie exclaimed surprise asking Yumi is he really, which confused Yuuki as he had not heard Yumi speak; but he had also not seen her whisper in Sophies ear so Yuuki was not privy to what information Sophie had just learned about him.

Sophie seemed to ask out of nowhere how long Yuuki had planned on staying in Hargeon in a seemingly curious manner, "I had not really planned on being here for more than a few days, however I could stay around quite a bit longer if it means enjoying more of your company." he said warmly and with confidence until he noticed the predatory grin on her face which made his ears twitch nervously and made him wonder just what she was thinking or planning to do with him.
