Slender. That’s really the only way you can describe her. Not “thin”, because that would suggest no curves (which she’s got; very nice ones, I might add), and not “delicate”, which she most certainly is not. No, she’s slender.

I’ve never seen anyone built like her. On my planet, women are big and muscular, like the men. Nowhere else in the galaxy have I seen a race with that perfect spareness and balance. That’s what makes her unique.

Of course, what do I know? Perhaps all Tangean women have bodies like that. But even if they do, she’s got something special. Flaming hair and deep blue eyes set in a heart-shaped face, balanced atop a willowy neck…

I love the way she moves during a fight, jumping and kicking with long legs, as flexible and elegant as a cat. Yes, that’s a good analogy. A cat who knows she’s something special, with a royal way of carrying herself.

It’s interesting how different we look. Sure, we’ve both got blue skin, but hers is richer, more vibrant. She’s so spare and graceful, while I tower above her, muscles everywhere, a rectangular face next to her round one. Interesting that two races that came from the same ancestor can be so different.

When I fought her for the first time, and didn’t know her beyond what the general public knows, I thought I could snap her with my bare hands. I thought I could break and beat her easily.

Nothing could be further from the truth. If anything, she could’ve wiped the floor with me, maybe because, even then, I was staring at her, wondering in the back of my mind what it would be like to run metal claws through that hair, tracing the honey-colored streaks. Wondering how it might feel to trace those lips with living fingers, those startlingly red lips on a pale blue face.

It’s worse now, of course. But really, it’s just a stupid dream. She’s a princess. I come from army stock. She thinks everyone is good, I know that we all live in darkness. Still, I can’t help my heart beating faster whenever I see that gorgeous, slender form.
