Irso seemed as excited about the idea of going to the station together as Huilu was, and she was happy to see that. She had been worried her request would've been strange, considering to someone it might've sounded like Huilu was requesting a da-And that was when Irso joked about Huilu asking him out and Huilu's thoughts stopped for a moment. She knew he was joking, it was clear from his tone, but still Huilu felt flustered and although she did not blush she could've sworn her face felt hot. But Huilu fought to keep her reaction natural and she laughed a bit, also leaning forward slightly.
"I do believe I am, the space station is out, after all. Outside the Earth's atmosphere, at least. And I'm happy you'd be willing to join me, Lord Vudemo."
Huilu hid an amused smile behind her ice tea glass, that she emptied with this last sip. And it looked like Irso was finished with his food as well.
Huilu didn't even bother asking if Irso had been to the station, she was quite certain he had. He had been to many places Huilu would most probably never be able to go to. And Huilu was very excited to see the station together with Irso, share the experience with him. And some day Huilu wanted to let Irso see Akt'Anir, a place she knew well but he had never seen, and share that experience with him as well.
"I must check my own schedule as well, so I will contact you about this matter at a later date. I'm certain we can agree on a good day for both of us."
