An Amicable Meeting

[Liz Krest]

"My eyes?" Liz repeated after Damien, appearing to be rather surprised, "I cannot say I share the same opinion about them, but that doesn't mean it isn't joyful to be made aware of yours. The same goes," she paused for a moment, almost as if she had ran out of words, "for the rest of my features that you have commented on."

The Lane Hacker was unsure what Damien really saw in her. The charming attempt at a compliment only raised more questions, but she was not about to let them cloud her mind, not at this moment. The look on Elizabeth's face as her eyes darted off into the distance for a moment would surely betray the confusion she was going through. Regardless, her eyes would soon meet Cobra's in a stare that was quite far from the emotionless one that she usually wore.

"You've already answered that question, Damien," Liz spoke confidently while maintaining eye contact, "you called me here because you enjoyed our earlier conversation and my company. The rest is my own processing of that information, which combined with the 'thinking little of yourself' creates confusion."

Liz did not hesitate to be completely honest with the Xeno. The truthfulness of her words was clearly evident in her speech pattern and body language.
