According to Charles, all aspects of what was happening here were abnormal. She could take note of that for the future but it wasn't like that would change the conversation that was already happening. Whatever the case, he wouldn't succeed in shaking her faith in him. That being said he was saying some very contradictory things given the amount of naysaying he was delivering.
Whatever the case, when she offered him this kissing activity he claimed was a normal part of dating, he seemed agreeable and then confused. Angelica began to wonder if she as truly the abnormal one in this situation or not. "I asked if you wanted to kiss me and you said yes. I suppose that makes me feel a bit better, it'd be awkward if you weren't interested," she said seeming to understand the basics bit by bit as they conversed. Still, there were likely some complications, her father had explained Mana Transfer in its simplest terms, but given how skittish Charles was about even kissing she was beginning to wonder if there was a lot more to it than she had been told. Delving into that was going to be the use of the female friends, yes... girls a bit more worldly than herself could likely explain the nuances in a way a father wouldn't explain them to his daughter. Yes, that made sense.
Ah but now she watched him as he deflated over his teacup which was now empty. He claimed some level of unfairness and wondered how she was even sure. He went on to claim she should meet some better candidates before choosing him. "I don't know what about this isn't fair, but I know why I am certain," she said closing her eyes for a moment while she began to speak. Her body shifted and she was soon leaning her face into hands which were propped up on the table by her elbows. "You care, and not specifically about the church or the Templars but about the people and worry about the well-beings of others, including myself. You are interested in me, but not throwing yourself at me, which is a bonus, in my admittedly limited experience. You don't really want the job or title associated with this particular arrangement, so if you agreed to it, it'd be an earnest and honest endeavor. Besides all that, you just want to help people, and I think that is way more important for someone who is in charge of others than most other qualities. Because of that you won't simply throw your life away just because you're told to, which is also good for everyone including myself," she explained. As for the meeting of others she shrugged. "If you think it is a good idea for me to meet other people, I would agree to it. But anyone I spoke to, who had any idea what getting next could grant them would be untrustworthy... I told you before I am wary of people who think they are perfect," she said seeming to be firm her stance. Regardless, she'd do her best to comfort the lad across from her. "Don't look so sad, Charlie... it's not the sort of thing that will happen immediately. You've got plenty of time to let the idea grow on you. We can go on more official dates if you like and you can explain to me the significance of this 'boyfriend' title."
