Compliments could get you many places; people didn’t often forget those that were quick to acknowledge their value and worth, even if it was for some sort of personal gain. Eden had not really sensed anything about the mysterious snake charmer that he could overpower and claim but then again they only had just met.

“Khepri,” Eden repeated, trying his best to deliver the name as elegantly as she had. He’d use her name as opposed to the created titled even if it was fitting. In all honesty she could’ve found several nicknames for him and he appreciated that she hadn’t.
And at the inquiry Eden couldn’t help but smirk, “Well, you’ve figured out my moves. I should really start rethinking ways to talk to beautiful women.” It was said in a teasing manner, he hoped his tactics were a little more subtle and much more refined. “I work inside. I was trying to get a feel for the atmosphere.”
