An invite was unexpected, but when Nhyssa invited Li had eagerly excepted. The chance to dance was always welcome. The dance itself mattered little and any dancing with Nhyssa would prove interesting, be it ring, the bedroom or some other adventure. It would be interesting no matter the venue.
The street festival was easy to find with its mryth and festivities spilling out into the rest of Moscow. Between the vendors and the neighbors the food was plentiful and the music was loud. Li walked through the street with little resistance but the crowd around a vendor parted around it giving him a view of the back side of his comrade. A smile drew his lips apart as he walked up to her, he wasn't quiet, he knew better than to sneak up on a woman, much less one of Nhyssa's background - what little he knew of it, but he knew enough. "Always a pleasure seeing you." He grinned with a chuckle on his lips. The simple childish gesture making Li's smile widen. The simple joys in life always made a person return to whence they came. There was a slight moment of jealously, he could have cleaned misbehaving cream from her fingers but it was not his place.
He leaned across the distance and placed a simple kiss on her cheek. Nothing too forward, nothing braizen despite the smile and the feelings the dark mysterious woman drew upon his soul. "Do you know what we are celebrating tonight?" He nodded to the excitement about them, Li wasn't a citizen of Moscow he knew little of the cultural implications of such things.
