The Godslayer noted the way the goddess smiled. So, it was indeed possible, if difficult, to get such a reaction from her. He himself had no real issues in drinking a glass of wine, or even several, as he was unconcerned with the effect of the alcohol. Still, she didn't smile for long, as she didn't seem to keen at all to the idea of thinking of his visit as a date.
The general was quite clearly jealous, and it showed. It didn't surprise him that the long-dead shadow of a soul had feelings for his goddess, but she also didn't seem to return them, so it was quite one-sided. Well, she clearly wasn't interested in the Godslayer, either.. at least, not yet. She didn't have a whole lot of words to say, which was making it quite difficult to figure her out.
"Of course," said the Godslayer, noting the way she hesitated. "You know..." he said, "You're making it a bit difficult for me to figure out what to do with you. I came here to talk, but that doesn't work very well if you don't give me much of a response to anything I say. Had I come as an enemy, you'd know it. I'd pretty direct like that."
