Autumn's gaze is sharper than any knife, attentive though not malicious - calculating yet not cold but rather sympathetic, while her eyes are like two glinting jewels, vibrant and breath-catching.

"Eye contact is one of the most important things in a one-on-one conversation, though while stunning good looks are certainly helpful - I'd be a liar if i claimed otherwise, so long as you're willing to make the other party feel like you're truly listening, make them feel appreciated, special, they'll spill all their secrets without you having to utter a word."
