CLOSED - forward dated to New Year's Eve

[scorchedchivalry]

Characters: Saber (Alter) and Catarina Amanto
Setting: 11th Floor
Format: Action (cause I'm lazy today)
Summary: A majestic floor, a beautiful woman and the knight that may or may not be courting her.
Warnings: Catarina is her own warning, but nothing expected

[The knight had spent some time trying to find the right floor for this evening, so she had already been through the overwhelming specter of this floor with the flowers along the ceiling, the impossible waterfalls that pooled in the center and the open air about them.

If only it wasn't so cold. Saber wasn't cold, but she was worried about the succubus. That would be why Catarina would find it far warmer when close to Saber than away. The knight extended her prana into the ambient air around her, but without form it was only a few inches from her body.

Stepping out onto the Eleventh Floor and all its beauty, Saber turned and offered Catarina her arm.]

This is our destination tonight. I hope it pleases you.

[With a smile, Saber slid her arm about Catarina's shoulders.]

Allow me to escort you back to your room.

[divinitysoiled]

[With that, her smile faltered. Saber had her worries that Catarina was using Saber for a meal, or worse... there was a tiny seed of unease for Catarina concerning one particular person]

Of course.

[scorchedchivalry]

[Saber's other hand touched Catarina's jaw, lightly turning her to look at the knight.]

Did you not wish me to? It is only proper after an evening like this for me to return you safely to your room. Perhaps it is a bit antiquated as I know you can see to your own safety, but tradition is not something I can easily let go, my dear.

[divinitysoiled]

It is nothing, my knight. I am merely unhappy this day must come to a close.

[At her room. Where Irisviel might be.]

[scorchedchivalry]

[Luckily, Saber knows Irisviel doesn't spend much time in the room and, the night being what it is, she assumed the magus is with her daughter.]

They say all good things must eventually come to an end, my dear. If it were not for that, we would not anticipate the next instance.

[divinitysoiled]

That is true. Then I shall look forward to the next time we are together.

[scorchedchivalry]

As do I.

[And Saber will walk Catarina back to the room and give her a soft kiss before taking her leave for the night.]
