_____________________________________________________________

Sebastian Smythe was walking along the paths that led south from the Northern Plains. He had a backpack over his left shoulder, and was looking around the landscape as he went through it. The sun was making his emerald green eyes stand out and to himself he was humming a small melody, with a smirk on his lips. His hair was nicely sat, and his clothes showed that he came from a wealthy family, not that it really mattered now, since he had recently made the decision to leave home at 19 and seek out to see the world - or at least the part of the world that would lead his way to a small school he had heard about, one that was placed in the Oasis, which was were he was going now if he could find his way and not get lost.

Aleesi was walking around that area, too. Although not on the ground - he was walking from tree branch to tree branch, making a couple jumps that seemed unnaturally long for a human to make, which was what he looked like right now. Pale skin, grey eyes, platinum blonde, almost white hair, and a type of toga around him that from top to bottom went from a snow-white to a soft, sky-blue. He was humming to himself, some of the melodies he'd heard the birds sing.

Sebastian soon stopped to get something to drink - it was getting warmer the more he walked. He put his bag down, reaching into it for his bottle. He sighed as he felt the refreshing water in his mouth and for a second let his eyes close. Damn, he really had to get use to the warmer weather.

Then Aleesi noticed him. Hmm. Those clothes...

".. You're not from around here, are you? You're from the northern parts, aren't you?" he asked, seating himself on a branch directly above Sebastian.

Sebastian nearly jumped when he heard a voice. He looked around himself before he noticed that the voice came from above. With raised brows he looked up and saw the stranger, which made him smirk a bit brighter. "You guessed correct. I'm from the northern parts, but I'm heading south now." he said in his most charming voice, drying a small drop of water away from the corner of his mouth with his thumb.

"Really?" he jumped down from the branch, and landed on the ground without even the slightest sound; much softer than any human would've landed. "So, why're you going there?"

He didn't even notice the soundless landing - why would he, it wasn't that sort of things that Sebastian actually noticed. He eyed the stranger in front of him for a moment before answering. "I'm going to some school that I heard about. It's in the Oasis."

"Oh, really? I didn't know there were any schools there." then again, he'd only heard of schools a few times before. He didn't know too much about human society. He straightened his toga a little.

He shrugged, still with that charming and self-assured smirk on his face. "My friend told me about it. It shouldn't be that big, but I wanted to check it out, see what it was. Who knows, maybe I'll even stay there for a while." he said while he took his checked button down shirt off, leaving him in a rather tight white t-shirt, since he found it too warm to wear both things.

He nodded. "You mind if I tag along? I've... Never actually seen a school before." he smiled.

He shrugged as he put his bag over his shoulder again. "Sure. Some company would be nice anyways, it's a long way to walk alone." he smirked and held out his hand. "I'm Sebastian. Sebastian Smythe."

He smiled, and took his hand - Sebastian would probably notice his skin was extremely soft to the touch, something never found in the Northern Plaines. It was... Silky smooth.

"I'm Aleesi."

Sebastian softly shook his hand, and at the touch he unconsciously licked his lips, then he let go and smirked as bright as before when he looked straight into Aleesi's eyes. "Nice to meet you Aleesi." his voice was almost seducing as he spoke.

A small giggle. "Nice to meet you too, Sebastian."

His element showed in his eyes, though - the grey color wasn't really the same, t changed all the time, brief, bright glimpses of almost silvery grey, and other moments of darker grey, like a rain cloud gliding by. Color constantly changing, but staying in the greys.

He still smirked and didn't really break the eye contact. He knew that he were a bit intense, and also very forward, but hey, you got to take the chance right? His smirk grew slightly as he finally looked away, taking a few steps. "So, you know where I'm from, it's only fair if I got the same information about you, right?" he sent him that heartbreaking smile, where he actually showed his perfect toothpaste white teeth.

"... Oh." Aleesi's smile suddenly faded. "I... Don't know where I'm from, to be honest..."

"Really? That's weird. Did you have some sort of short-term memory?" he asked with a raised brow, though he still had that toothpaste-smile, barely noticing that Aleesi wasn't smiling just as much now - he had never really been good with the whole pity-feeling-or-noticing-thing. He just wasn't the type of guy who cared too much.

"Maybe, I don't know." he sighed. "I just... I've never had a home. Or a family." he shrugged.

He raised his brows even more. "Really? That's a bummer." he said, but it didn't really sound like he cared a lot, or that he felt pity. It was more like a way to say that he wanted to change the subject.

He shrugged. "Guess so. But hey, I'm fine and having fun, so who cares, right?" he grinned.

"That's the right attitude to have!" he smirked brightly again. "Hey, we only live once, right? And we're only young once, so better make the best of it while we still can."

He chuckled. "Yeah, you're right." After all he didn't know the expression was there because humans only had one or two decades to be young in - he'd been 'young' for about four decades, now.

"Of course I am." he said as if it was something he was so used to hear - which it was. He smirked and then nodded towards the path. "We better get going, the more we walk today, the faster we're there, but it may take some days to walk, so I hope you don't mind sleeping outdoors." another smirk, clearly one that showed he wasn't thinking... child-friendly.

"Not at all. I love sleeping outdoors. I avoid sleeping indoors whenever I can." he smiled, and began walking, in front actually - he did know exactly where he Oasis was, and the fastest way to get there. 39 years was a lot of time to get to explore most of the world, especially when you could fly.

He was a bit taken aback when Aleesi suddenly walked in front of him. It actually made him slightly offended, mostly because he didn't like it when he wasn't in charge of things. Soon he made sure to walk right besides Aleesi, refusing to walk behind him. He still smirked though, and tried his best to look charming and seducing, especially when he ran a hand through his hair, messing it up a little - which made him look rather sexy.
