“Well, I suppose it’s about what most people expect." She began while moving aside her hair. Ferr had joked about her living a life of luxury. It was an obvious condition for living as a Princess. But the way she began to explain it made Ferr question the way royalty functioned. “Ever since I was a little girl, I was being conditioned to become a ‘proper’ lady. Despite that, I never really saw that as my life. I fell in love with the stories of the Huntsman and Huntresses from before the Calamity, stories of places like Beacon and Atlas. My father even planned to have me marry someone that I didn’t even know, just for the sake of politics.” Of course that would be the case. For the families held in the upper echelon of society, it was common. Almost expected really. Ferr would lean against the wall as Amber's voice caused a lulling effect on the man. He was growing tired but didn't show it much. It would be rude of him to show it. That and he wished to hear the whole thing through.

As she spoke of the King, Ferr's eyes dropped down a tad bit. When he became a father, would he too understand what went through that man's mind? Could he even fathom it? To be able to understand and accept something like that in his final moments would take love and understanding. Ferr just hoped he had enough of it when his time came. But with that, a sigh would escape Amber's lips. “Something I’ve always kind of believed in, Ferr, is that we all only have one life. It’s important that we live it, fully and without restraint. I don’t want to walk on eggshells all my life. I don’t want to live dwelling on what some people would call regrets.

Time seemed to pause as Amber reached out her hand to Ferr. His azure eyes landed upon it with confusion but wonder. He removed his hands from his side before inching towards it. Before his laid atop her own, Ferr paused and thought about the situation. Was there even a situation to think about though? If he took her hand-- where was this going to go? What could he expect? His mind was flustered along with his heart. But the words rang continuously. They resonated with his own thoughts. His own wishes. Yes, it was clear to him.

"I." He uttered before taking her hand into his own. "I want to live too. I want to live with a great purpose. And I want to live with hope, happiness and a clear mind." A lump would form in his throat before he quickly pulled Amber closer towards himself. Ferr would wrap Amber with his free arm. Once she was close, he would close his eyes. He felt bold and out of line-- it mattered little to him now.

"Amber...I go across Remnant for weeks or even months at a time. As I do so, I step into the darkness that surrounds humanity and do my best to combat it. To brighten the world. It's one of the few things I am good at- fighting that is. I was never very good in academics, nor do I totally understand social ques and the sort. But still. I live to remove the clouds that darken the skies in hope the world will see a bright sun." With a rapid heart, Ferr took in a deep breath before lowering his vision to meet Amber's. "Forgive me for being so rash. But if you don't wish to return home...I will be taking you with me instead." His eyes and face all expressed his seriousness. The man would close his eyes a second time with a calm mind, waiting for her response. Either she rejected him or accepted it. To option was totally up to her.

The nervousness that was emitting from within Ferr was slowly dying away. Being replaced by a calming wave of reassurance as Amber received and returned his hug. Keeping his eyes closed, Ferr smiled a large grin. It seemed he wasn't too bad at this sort of stuff. It was good to know that Amber was willing to reflect his gestures and aspirations. While they were different, they were similar enough for it to matter. And it mattered a great deal to the man. This woman that stood before him had connected to Ferr the quickest anyone ever has. It was refreshing and filled him with glee. “If you’re really okay with me going with you - if you…really want me tagging along, I… How could I say no to that? I would love to go with you, Ferr! It sounds like it could be a lot of fun.”

Fun she said? Ferr laughed a silent laugh. In a way, he supposed it would be fun. He was lucky his ride had seating for two. Or else things would get really cramped. Though it wasn't necessarily a bad thing if they got a little closer in his mind. That being said his mind went silent when Amber took hold both cheeks. They stayed like that for what seemed to be eternity. Ferr could see indecision in the woman's eyes. The indecision was swayed away by the beauty of blue eyes. If he acted now it would set the tone for their future. Or would it be their future? He didn't know at the moment and time.

Ferr was not smart or very wise. But he knew one thing. If he advanced in the way his body demanded, in the way his entire being as a man demanded, then she would be tied to him. At least this is what he thought. It made him think of the risks being a Hunter had. At any moment during any mission, no matter how easy it seemed. Ferr could die. The man was not immortal regardless of his strength or power. He could still fall into a worse state than his own father. He glanced at Amber's lips, wanting to feel them against his own. But in this brief moment of though, it was clear. If he kissed her than she would be connected to him more than anyone every has been.

But he couldn't do that to her. Not right now. They had just recently met. Though this night provided so much insight into what they could become, Ferr wouldn't allow it to blossom. Not just yet anyway. Perhaps in time. But he couldn't deny what he was feeling. The warm feeling of love. It reminded him of something his father had told him long ago.

Brushing aside Amber's hair and leaning in Ferr would kiss her forehead. It was light but at the same time, he felt he had just placed a weight onto her. Looking back at her, Ferr smiled. "My father once told me that he met my mother on the field of combat as rivals. The most powerful man and the strongest woman. They respected each other. And then they began to love each other. Amber...I respect you alot right now."

The redness in Ferr's face was beginning to become a more regular feature. If the two of them had interactions like this too often than Ferr was going to have blood problems. At the simple touch of Amber's hands Ferr's body responded. Perhaps this was a destined meeting? Ferr smiled at every word she said. Especially when Amber said she wanted to continue the hanging out with Ferr. "So you want a tour of the campus? Students shouldn't be able to be on the grounds at night. But then again, I am Alumni. And you are a Princess." A little and mischievous smile grow on Ferr's lips. Out of character maybe. But this was a very out of character night for him. With a nod Ferr picked up his water bottle and gestured for Amber to follow him.

The man placed his garbage in a blue bin before walking towards a pair of double doors. They'd lead out to a pair of stairs leading down to a pathway outside. Fresh air would do them both a great service for the moment. The night seemed like a cool and bright one. Perfect for reinvigorating the knight. "First would you like to see a secret little spot? We found a number of locations best suited for any occasion. My class I mean. Should still be there unless they had construction done since I've been gone."

The excitement Amber was resonating was pretty impressive to Ferr. A hope, skip, and practically a jump, and Amber was locking arms with Ferr. Any more and the woman might have been dragging him if she knew the way already. Ferr thanked god she didn't. ”I think that sounds like a lot of fun! What kind of secret spot is it, anyway?" Ferr guided her down the stone path for around a minute. As he did, Ferr looked around the tops of the buildings. He looked for a specific statue on one of the roofs to jog his memory. It had been a few years. Plus so much has happened in that time. It was hard to remember everything. "Well this one, the closest, will show us a good view of the housing district. It is line up in such a way that the buildings make a little frame. All the houses and buildings look like a sea of lights in an pound of green and darkness. It is kinda peaceful."

The sight of a particular gargoyle did do the trick however. Seeing the winged statue made Ferr take a good grip onto Amber as he moved them towards the side of the new building and pointed to a section of the wall. Along a vertical line, the ledges beneath the windows formed what resembled a ladder one could climb. Along the way, a vine had grow over a good portion of the wall. Small flowers blossomed onto it. The kind nobody knew the name to but they still liked to see. Ferr was more focused on where the vine reached as it crept around the top of the edge of the roof.

Pointing up to the roof, Ferr said, "It is right up there. About five stories. A really quick climb and it should be all good. No?" The man smiled to Amber for a moment before his lips flattened. "You know how to climb right? Want a back-ride?" He asked before cracking his knuckled and loosening his knees. "
