Anrar had been around long enough - much longer than Fred could guess at, he was sure - to know human behavior and their emotions long before they actually expressed them out loud. It was just the feeling one got off them when near and the blond could easily tell that the woman beside him was unsure about the choice she'd made. She was nostalgic and quiet, and when she finally spoke, it was a question she didn't even seem to realize she was going to ask and Anrar smiled just slightly, sadly before he looked to her, dark green eyes meeting pale green evenly as she started to change the subject rather rapidly.
"They're fun, yes. Usually they offer a variety of activities like swimming, balls, golf, scuba-diving, buffets and the like. Cruises last about two weeks, so when we make land again, we'll....regrettably be taking a plane..." The blond frowned as if realizing something he would have rather not and he grimaced slightly, looking out the window and then sighing, resigning himself to the decision he had to make. "Yeah, we'll have to take a plane to Scotland."
What was in Scotland? Anrar would have thought that question much too loaded and general all at the same time if Fred hadn't clarified a bit with the leprechaun joke and he relaxed a little, showing a hint of amusement in his eyes as he answered, rather relieved that he wouldn't have to yet explain why they were going there specifically. "There are no leprechauns, but the Minor Faeries are quite insulted to be referred to as such, I can assure you." He actually smiled then, widely and went on, completely serious. "The Sidhe are a far more ancient kind of fae and they live in abundance in the Highlands. There are some species of unicorn there, too and Selkies abound. No dwarves, but there are Sirens, Nymphs and Banshees. I think the High Elves passed through Scotland a few years back, too..."
Dark eyes glanced back into lighter ones and Anrar spoke quietly. "There are no more places to go to, Fre. It's why I have to be careful." His gaze searched hers for a moment, as if trying to memorize the compassion and friendliness he saw there, like he wouldn't see it again for a long while, like it could be snatched away at a moment's notice. His voice lowered even furthur. "You don't have to do this. You can go now if you wish it."
