Hotei felt the girl’s eyes burning into him, which was a bit ironic considering
he was the fire demon. Nonetheless, he still could not make eye contact with her. At this point he was fairly sure she was something of a siren, though maybe the land equivalent and not one to sing her spells. Hotei remembered hearing a similar effect happened to those who met the humans’ Greek god of beauty. “Aphrodite..?” He mumbled, moving his entire head to look to the side and scratch the back of his neck awkwardly. Whoever this girl was, she seemed to attract his eyes as if she were made of light. Then, perhaps she was related to... “The sun?” The words seemed to force themselves out of his mouth, probably since actually saying something helped to keep his mind on the topic. Otherwise it would have been buzzing with only thoughts of her. In any case though, Hotei realised that the two things he had said could have been passed off as compliments, and after his hair started smoking again from embarrassment, it finally hit him.
She was a Valentin. He had glanced at the announcement board on his way in that said something about a dance and the species, but had ignored it since he had no interest in it. Emphasis on the word ‘had’. Upon figuring it out, Hotei almost couldn’t keep the statisfaction off his face. The way Lila had responded still left Hotei without knowing her name (and it honestly made him a bit sad, but he figured that was the affect of her powers). And since Valentins were usually known as the ones doing the flirting, he wondered how well one would react if he flirted back.
The fire demon let an air of calm surround him (though he was unaware that the feeling was just a side effect of the aura being lessened in intensity) and fixed a grin on his face, his eyes making their way to Lila’s. “No, you’re brighter than the sun and more beautiful than Aphrodite, so you can’t be either of them. What if your name then..?”
