[size=small]Odd. Something about the way he spoke her name did not sound right, so when she offered up her changeling name, part of her was hopeful he would not call her anything but. Only for the sake of her hearing. The name Ashrun's father had given her was something not many on Aman could say they had outside of the city. Family names. Ilasang was her fathers fathers fathers name, going far back as she could remember. Or at least what she had been told. Still, he knew what to call her now and suspected anything else but her names would be used. Hopefully he would not resort to calling her anything less.
"<font color="#c69bf6]Trees and jungle overgrowth are not to my liking either....but I did have to make a few repairs with what I was able to get. I am not a skilled builder...[/font]" her eyes followed him as he stepped towards the glass, visibly cringing at the tracks he left behind on the clean flooring. Globs of mud and sticks and pebbles fell from his long pants and left a trail in his wake. She would clean once more before the end of the day, even if she was tired enough to sleep for days. Where he walked onto the landing immediately, Ashrun took the time to remove the boots on her feet and set them in a shabby wooden box. A kind of wet area for the items she would not need past this point. Her feet bare once more, she shivered at the feel of the cold metal along the bottom of her feet. "<font color="#c69bf6]Not-....I think I can fashion a loin cloth if you allow me to measure you.[/font]" like many things, she wished those words could be taken back. They were meant how they were, simply to measure his waist and determine the length and width of the cloth in which he could use to cover him. But perhaps they did not seem that way.
Hiding her face from his view - a tint of red spreading along her face and ears -Ashrun turned her back and faced the elevator. With her back to him, she was able to close the elevator doors manually and lock them, removing a similar metal stick from the panel against the wall and sticking it into her hair. Much as she had the other from before. The white light that spilled from the crack of the lift doors faded and the panel died with a flicker of green. Should any try to use the mechanism without the power strip in her hair, they would not be able to.
She turned once more to look at Azreal from behind, taking in his appearance now that she was in the almost perfect safety of her home.
From the wet hair atop his head to the way the clothes stuck to his body, not an inch of his body from behind was dismissed. Shoulders lead to arms and then finger tips. Which then focused on his hips and down pillars for legs and disappeared in flat shoes. His clothes alone were something of a wonder, thinking about the weight of the short robe around her waist in comparison to a whole suit made of possibly similar material. He was wet, but perhaps not all of it from water. Ashrun wanted to cringe in disgust at that thought, but she was not far from being in that same boat of 'need to bathe now.' Perhaps not as drenched, but none the less.
But her dreaming was cut short when he asked about her familial situation.
"<font color="#c69bf6]It-.....appears i've been left behind.[/font]" There was no more to say. True, her mother was never part of her life and her father all but babied her from the moment she couldn't change into anything from Aman, but a sister and brother still did exist. From what she could tell, anyways. But there was no real reason to tell him exactly everything when he gave so little of himself. Ashrun moved closer to him, standing at his side with little distance between them. She did not look down at the water as one might think, she looked him in the face with an expression that showed no pain or loss. Her left hand grasped her skirt at her side in a tight grasp and the right hand reached for her ear lobe, lightly stroking with her finger as she continued. "<font color="#c69bf6]Everyone is gone. I don't want to share what I have with others from Aman. But you are not of this planet, so you are an exception.[/font]" She almost smiled at her joke. Almost.
"<font color="#c69bf6]Come, i'll show you to the hall of rooms and then to the showers. There is a pool for water, I suggest that over a shower. It is much more relaxing.[/font]" turning away from him quickly, she padded along the metal flooring and followed the wall of glass. It curved to the right from where they stood, following a dim hall way to a lone airlock door. There was no handle or hatch, simply another panel that was dead. Aliteetal took the metal stick from her hair and inserted it into a slot on the panel. The door clicked a few times and then opened slowly, just enough to see inside. That is, will Ashrun pushed open the door the rest of the way and motioned to Azreal. "You step in first. I have to retrieve my ID card."
She would wait till he walked over the threshold before pulling out her key and jumping through the opening. Once she was on the other side, a half second later the door would slam and lock back into place. Obvisouly who ever built this place was intending to keep it from any outsiders.
On the other side was another long hall with the continuing glass wall to their left. But to their right were doors. Some wooden, some metal and then empty frames or open doors. In total, about nine of them in a row and spaced out almost evenly. There was hardly any light source, and yet the hall was not dark. The glass brought in what natural lighting there was to be had outside in the open cave, the water reflecting the beam of strange blue light and encasing the whole area in it's glow. "<font color="#c69bf6]These I use for storage. Or i'd like to. I don't keep alot of things down this far from my apartments. I'll take you there and you can share a room with me. Unless you'd prefer you own space...?[/font]" Instead of putting the key back into her hair, she handed it to him with a nod. He would need one anyways and her supply of keys was nearly endless.
