"Ah! We haven't introduced you guys properly, have we?" Roselyn said, voice light and playful.
She leaned forward slightly, elbows planted firm on the table, pink steak held between thumb and forefinger.
Her golden eyes met mine directly, corners crinkling as she smiled wide enough to show all her white teeth.
One sharp canine glinted when she tilted her head. "This is Claire; the captain of Fairylynch's ground division."

Claire froze mid-bite, small piece of ribbon candy halfway to her mouth.
Her violet bob shifted as she looked up, cheeks already flushing a soft rose.
She set the candy down carefully, fingers brushing crumbs from her lips with quick, nervous pats.
Eh? This small and cute Claire is in the military?
Claire's eyes widened a fraction, lashes fluttering once.
