Re: The Door Between Two Worlds [Roue and Rabbit] (closed)
开云体育[Roue] As the young looking boy began to convulse beneath the elf, Roue instinctively wrapped his arm around his partner's body, holding him tight to his own body, feeling the convulsions with his entire being.? Though he had just cum himself, becoming flaccid as a result, the way Rabbit twisted in his grasp seemed to stoke the fire in him again and he felt himself get halfway to being hard.? How could one not when their lover seemed to having the orgasm of his life?? Using the other hand, he continued squeezing his bed mate's cock as if to coax all of the cum out of his churning sack, feeling the sticky liquid cover his fingers as it continued to spurt out.? Having been previously much cooler than his taller lover, Rabbit's body suddenly began to warm up in complete antithesis to the previous times.? A sudden curious thought came to his mind to raise his hand, to examine how the other's secretions looked like but before he could do that, Rabbit suddenly grasped hold of his and pulled him forward.? The elf gasped as he felt his lover's lips close around his wrist and before he even realized what was happening, he suddenly experienced an intense head rush. The feeling was almost indescribable, unlike anything he's ever experienced himself or with his previous partners.? It was akin to being caught in a whirlpool of emotions that threatened to take you under, drowning you, except the feeling was not one of fear and dread but rather one of extreme euphoria.? A thousand tiny pinpricks of pleasure made his skin uncontrollably tingle as an exhilarating shiver made its way down his spine.? What was this, this amazing head rush?? It forced him to hyperventilate, gasping for air, the lack of which was immediately apparent in his lungs that seemed to be on fire.? Delirium started to take over as he swayed, an insane smile gracing his face as his eyes became half-lidded at the same time.? The stimulation, however, was starting to become too much for the experienced wizard, his body starting to react to the volatile energy that was building up inside.? Just as it threatened to tip him over the edge, the feeling suddenly stopped and before he knew what he was doing, Roue collapsed onto his side, rolling over to his back as he stared up at the ceiling. "W-what was that?" he asked breathlessly, turning his head to look at Rabbit whose hot tongue was now lapping at the elf's wrist.? "That was...that was absolutely incredible..."? His chest heaved as he tried to catch his breath, attempting to make sense of what has happened, or even where or _when_ he was, but the more he tried, the more disoriented he become so he simply stopped trying.? Roue wanted to reach for Rabbit as the boy set about frantically cleaning the soiled area around them, but he found he couldn't move a single inch as a wave of extreme exhaustion hit him like a ton of bricks, instead opting to just patiently wait.? He couldn't take his eyes off him, however, watching his every move, until his lover finally finished and curled up against the elf, once again sharing in the feeling of closeness.? As much as he wanted to enjoy the afterglow of their intense love-making, his fatigue was starting to overtake him and though he tried to blink it all away, the lower his lids got, the less he was able to raise them, and eventually, losing that fight, his eyes tightly shut and he fell into a deep sleep. (Rabbit) Rabbit was curled up along sleeping Roue's deliciously warm side, enjoying the closeness and the feeling of being fully sated desire-wise. As he lay there, however, something occurred to him.? Just before the elf had nodded off, he said some things. Things that the little vampire had actually understood.? It hadn't hit him then, what with his being deep into the afterglow of his vampiric orgasm and feeding, but now it was coming back to him, the memory coming to mind with increasing clarity.? Roue had spoken and Rabbit had understood what he was saying. ? Propping himself up on an elbow, Rabbit looked down in curiosity at the elf's face now peaceful in slumber.? It took an effort of will for the little vampire to not shake his bed-mate awake.? Was it magic?? Telepathy of some kind?? Or had the elf been pretending to not understand him and had finally slipped up?? He didn't want to believe that last possibility. ? Whatever it was though, it would have to wait until Roue recovered and then Rabbit would ask him.? Snuggling up again along the elf's side once again, the little vampire let himself drift off to his own version of sleep, a kind of twilight that existed out of time inside the club's walls. ?

Re: What Lies in the Heart. Mikayla/The Dragon
开云体育(Mikayla) She rolled her eyes as he turned his ire on Angus. She gave Angus a soft smile as he departed and stood. "And that is why I called you a grumpy ogre. You were just incredibly rude to the one person in this world who cares for you and wants to help you for simply wanting to help you. But you are right," she said as she moved to the main barrel where Angus had left the soup, she took the large ladle out and moved back to him. "But you are right, you are not an ogre, i insult ogre by using them to describe you."? She teased? ?"I plan to help you eat by using this," she said dipping the ladle into the ceramic bowl. She blew on the soup for a bit, in the way a mother would do and then turn to him " Do you plan to let me help or will you shout me away too?" she asked poised with the delicious smelling soup, ready to spoon into his mouth. (The Dragon) "Did anyone ever tell you that you have the bedside manner of a manticore?" the Dragon rumbled, his eyes narrowing back at Mikayla.? "Which is an insult to manticores?? I swear you remind me of..." he stopped in mid-sentence, as if a memory had suddenly resurfaced and then just as quickly faded away again "...of something like a manticore, but...isn't," he finished lamely. He tried to retrieve whatever the memory had been, but it was like reaching for something whose outlines he could not quite make out. It seemed important, somehow. But beyond his reach. "I can feed myself," the Dragon protested, reaching weakly for the ladle the girl was holding out, the delicious smell tantalizing his nostrils and making his mouth water. The effort though was too much and his taloned forearm fell back to the dias without the ladle in hand. "Oh, very well," he sighed, grumpily giving Mikayla a resigned but still stubborn look.? "If it will make you happy, you may feed me." Tag - Mikayla

Re: High Moon Tales. Tales of the Wicked West.
开云体育[Sicilien]? Chase seemed to be skirting around the issue, suddenly talking about demons, witches, etc.? Who the hell cared about Flynn changing into a horse?? At this point, it was obvious that none of them were alien to the things that went bump into the night.? Not Callie whose partner was a shapeshifting "medicine man."? Not himself who had seen one too many demons, half of them being his bounties whose numerous rewards he has collected by sending back into whatever hell that birthed them.? He was quite sure that Chase wasn't a greenhorn himself, the way his eyes looked into back at Sicilien's in that brief moment when they were surrounded.? He'd bet a shiny gold bar that the guardian of this mysterious woman hid a beast of his own underneath that burnished skin.? When Callie stood up and confronted
the female enigma, he snorted in response, quickly turning it into a
snore.? This oughta to be good, he told himself, as he waited to see what
would happen next.? He couldn't resist the drama brewing, even at the
behest of himself. (Etienne) As she lay listening to the conversation, she pretty much figured it Was between the chick and big man so she didn’t need to get involved. That was until the chick came over to her and demanded she answer questions.? Etienne first thought was...who the hell is the bitch and who the fuck did she think she was demanding anything of her. But...rather than say that, she waited. First one second then two then five. Etienne made the woman wait nearly a full minute before she rolled on to her back and looked up at the woman with a cheer smile.? “Who am I and why am I here?” Etienne repeat. “Well, I think it would appear that ?I’m the woman you all have kidnapped and is ?now holding her hostage in rickety old jail cell against her will.” (Chase) Chase knew her name from the previous town.? It didn’t escape him.? He realized he didn’t need the more defenseless woman going up against the company woman.? That didn’t seem like? a fair fight at all even though he was sure Etienne was far from clawless.? “Calm down woman.? No one is kidnapping you….”? He paused in essence he was…she wasn’t going to get away till they made it to Miller’s crossing as she was needed to free the lot of them.? “…ok so we are, but your presence is needed…you and I both know what the undead wench said back there…you would needed to free not only us but yourself.? So we don’t confront it…you running won’t escape anything for long.? So I…we need your help.”? He asked rather than demand since he couldn’t force her to do anything. (Callie Carson) ? ?Callie took a step toward Etienne, but thought twice about backhanding the mouthy woman. Chase, though, stepped in and talked to the woman about "quieting down" and went on to speak of an undead woman and of needing this Etienne's help. ? ?"Wait," Callie muttered. "Let's get this straight, this guy kidnapped you. Right sheriff?" ? ?Sheriff Miller was at his desk, drinking from a flask he'd pulled out of a drawer there. He looked at the redhead, eyes bewildered, "I...reckon so." ? ?"And you," she looked to Chase. "What's this about an undead woman? Can you both just tell us straight up what is going on? It may help all of us get out of here alive...please." ? ?The door rattled hard again and the wind's howling roared outside the windows. Callie was afraid the walls of the sheriff's office would not hold the demons off for much longer. (Flynn) Between the howling of the storm, the hammering of the demonic mob on the doors and walls and the back-and-forth going on between the others inside the sheriff's office, it was getting difficult for Flynn to maintain his reverie. Also, there was the matter that they were clearly running out of time. ? "I don't mean to rush things," the pookah said without lifting his head or opening his eyes, "but I think we got maybe one minute before that mob out there busts in here and starts tearing into us. Now I can stop some of 'em, and I know some of you can stop some more, but unless you're ready and able to kill every last person in this town, we need to get out of here before that happens." Flynn paused a moment to let that sink in before continuing.? "Now I can get us out of here, but only to one place and only one time.? I'd rather we use that to get to Miller's Crossing, but I've never been there and so I cain't do it by myself. So if any of you folks have been there and have a really clear memory of some place there with a door, now's the time to say so.? Otherwise, the best I can do is get us to the train station in Cullenville, which is sixty miles in the other direction." The pookah lifted the edge of his hat just slightly and nodded at the door being pounded by the mob outside. "And in case there's any doubt, this ain't up for debate. The moment I hear that door start to splinter or come off its hinges, I'm gone." tag?Chase, Callie, Flynn, Sicilien, Etienne, Charity (jumping in)) |

Re: Port Vega: The Real Test Begins.
开云体育(Kites) Kites was none too happy to have reached his turn to speak.? As inviting as Chord tried to make it to get them to talk about yesterday, he was still butthurt about the way they all got scolded.? A very sick feeling welled in his stomach, like bile that was stuck in his throat, but he swallowed his bitterness down and stood up, causing the chair to scrape against the floor as he straightened out.? Bringing a fist to his face, he coughed to clear his pipes and then looked up, letting his hand drop back down to his side.? He hoped that he was able to fake enough confidence to not look like a coward.? In truth, he was quite nervous and a bit shaky.? It felt as if the whole world's attention was on him. "I...agree with everyone's comments.? The bar was set impossibly high and to expect us to know what it is and act as if we have years of experience, is too much to ask of people who at this point have never met before nor were familiar with each other," he said, trying to keep the jitters out of his voice.? The last part was a bit of a lie.? As of last night, he and Gen had gotten wicked familiar with each other, something he had hoped that'd do more and more in the future.? But that was neither here nor there.? He stealthily nudged Gen's foot, his mouth threatening to curl into a smile but he held back with all his might.? "That being said, I too want to be here.? We all signed up for this and I'm pretty sure that none of us want to give up just because yesterday was a bust.? I hope that you won't give up on us either...*cough* That's all I want to say for now."? With that, he sat back down and dug into his food.? He wanted to reach for Gen under the table, to grab hold of his hand, but he refrained.? Better keep his own affectations to a minimum as he was sure that their slightest movements would be noticed by Chord's watchful eyes. (Mia) Mia had listened to Brandon’s apology then the other’s input of yesterday not being fair and what not.? She understood what Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison were doing.? It seemed like it was her turn and she stood.??“Well, Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison, I understood for the most part what you were trying to do yesterday.? We,” she gestured around the table, “did not seem to understand as a whole what was going on.? The first part with working through the different obstacles, that was understood and everyone worked as they were supposed to.? Individually at first, then as a team.? The second part with the robots just seemed a bit, too much at that time.? Granted, Brandon tried to tell us what to do and informed us of what he knew about the bots.? But then everyone tried to take things into their own hands more or less.? I did follow what Kat suggested, but until I became covered in wet mud, I didn’t realize the bots could read heat signatures.??As soon as I realized it was a losing battle and the one couldn’t find me, I decided the best course of action was to retreat.? Then Gen decided to send off some kind of screeching that was not conducive and more or less almost deafened us all.??All in all, yes, I understand that you all,” she looked at the team around the table, “felt it was overkill and too much.? So, did I, however, the team efforts that we had put in on the obstacle course was suddenly gone and everyone seemed to panic.? And that is what Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison were doing.? They wanted to see what we would do in a sudden attack.? And well, we failed miserably.”?? With that she sat back down. (Ireland, Chord, Harrison) ?When Mia was done speaking she wanted to clap and shout yes! Finally someone who got it. But even though that was her character, even though that’s how she felt saying that would have been totally out of line. So she remained quiet.? ?She also didn’t take her turn to speak “I was not in the room during the exercise so I don’t think it would add to the conversation for me to speak my thoughts on yesterday” she said softly. ?Which was true. She didn’t think anyone wanted to hear how she thought they were all sexed crazed teenagers who were squandering a mass opportunity. ?She wondered if Kat and Kites realized just how telling their behavior and innuendos were as they sat. It was a small conference room and they were all sitting at the same table. You would have to deaf and blind not see what was going on with them. ?Even Brandon. Did he really just send her a text while sitting there. Really dude? She was a bit surprised when she saw him looking down at something under the table and realized it was his phone when her phone vibrated against her back side. God...this guy. It made her wonder just how old everyone was. They all seemed so young and a bit immature...everyone but Mia. She actually seemed to be the most mature out of all of them...even her.. even more so than Brandon and he was older than all of them and had been with Chord the longest. When everyone was finish speaking Chord’s deep thoughtful brown eyes meet Harrison’s across the table. Although the look the two shared was unreadable, it would be obvious in the room that the two shared a moment.? After a beat, he nodded his head. And steepled his hands. “I just want you all to know that I appreciate what all of you have said here today.??Really I do. We asked you to speak up because we wanted to hear your thoughts on the matter. Find out where all of your heads are. Thank you all for sharing so freely. ? “Mia is right.??In everything she said. I explained that very same sentiment after Gen’s expressed her feelings yesterday. Thank you Mia, for not just hearing me but for taking the time to understand me through whatever hurt feelings my unfiltered honesty may have caused.”?He nodded a soft smile to Mia.? “With that being said, After yesterday and last night and today, Harrison and I have come to a decision.” He paused? “We have decided to disband this program effective immediately.??We realize that what we want for this program, what we want to accomplish is not properly lining up with the thoughts, ideas, goals, values and interest in the way we would like.?Knowing this, having a full understanding of the current and potential conflict this clash would cause if we continued would not be conducive to the necessary team growth needed to form strong long lasting bonds of trust, camaraderie and confidence between you and I and Ms Harrison and that would just be unfair and cruel to all of you. Contrary to what some of you may think. Cruel is never what I aspire to be... with anyone. ?“Thank you all for the time that you have given. I truly appreciate it. It was a pleasure to meet all of you. My door is always open if you should need anything.? Please stay and have your fill of breakfast. Whatever is left you are welcome to take with you. The clothing that has been provided for you for this week is yours to keep if you want it. so is the food in the mini bars. A car will be provided to you within the hour to take you anywhere in the city you would like to go.? Godspeed and Good Luck with you for you future endeavors. “ And with that he stood and moved towards where Harrison was sitting. She was about to speak, but Chord shook his head. And with that Harrison sighed softly and also stood. Harrison nodded to the occupants of the table and moved to fall into step beside Chord. As she moved past Mia, she handed the young woman an envelope. Chord opened the door held it open so that she could pass through and then the two left. Ireland looked up at Brandon. She was stunned but not at all surprised by what just happened. "Wow. Wow. The three of you are just something else. And Brandon I am so disappointed in you.” She said she was going to keep her thoughts to herself. Damn but she failed miserably with that one. (Brandon)? Brandon looked at his sister and she seemed to want to go all in.? “Thank you!”? Was all he said as he stood up and left the room.? He made his way to his room.? Seemed his actions had really created more of a problem than anything.? He was not a natural born leader, he had try to put forth more effort.? He didn’t trust himself to lead beyond his head or his inner turmoil or his penis.? Since his father, his sister and Harrison seemed to believe that is where he was leading from.? He went to see his father, the best or the most he could do was give the rest of the group a chance.? Ireland deserved to be here and she made it pretty clear she was a better leader than him.? He would leave the team if it would give the others a chance to be better without him. (Kat) Kat sat for a moment, not sure she heard what she heard. She understood what Chord and them were trying to do. The big picture as Mia had said but in her mind he took it a little to far. There were better ways to get tbe point across than the way Chord had tried. Still to just give up was not something she had thought he would have done. ?So when Chord and Harrison walked out, Kat honestly couldn't believe it. She looked to Brandon, who just stood up and left. This made her even more confused. Not sure what to do she looked to the others. "I'm heading up to my room. I'm going to collect my stuff and head back to my old place. There is room if you all want to crash for a while."? ? ?Kat stood and headed for the door. As she did she stopped and turned around. "I don't want to leave. This is the first time in my life that I have been around someone like me. I don't want to lose my friends."? (Gen) Gen nodded to what Kites said, happy to hear that the winged youth's sentiments mirrored his own. He wanted to give Kites a supportive kiss or hug when he sat back down, but contented himself with a smile and a playful shoulder nudge, not wanting to risk even more disapproval from Chord or anyone else. He then listened to Mia say her piece, then glowered at the water controller as she sat down.? "I said I was sorry," he muttered, digging back into his food and stuffing his face angrily. "We can't _all_ be perfect." The androgyne wasn't prepared though for what came next, nearly choking on his food when Chord announced that he was disbanding the project and that they were on their own as of this morning. Then Ireland seeming to echo him in blaming everyone but Mia for this.? And then Harrison handing an envelope to Mia as she and Chord left the room. Gen felt sorry for Brandon as the man gave Ireland an injured look and a quiet "thank you" and then headed for the doors.? "It wasn't your fault!" he called out as the dejected man left the room, adding "Not all of it anyway" quietly to himself. "Me too," Gen said when Kat announced her intentions. Impulsively, the androgyne got up and went to the cat girl and hugged her tightly.? "I don't want to lose you either," he said holding her close, his voice choking a bit with emotion.? "Not any of you," he went on, glancing back at Kites with longing. His expression glowered a bit when he added "Not even you two" looking at Mia and Ireland. "The same goes for me too," he said finally, reluctantly releasing Kat and stepping back.? "I'm going back to my old place, and if anyone needs a place to stay, it's got plenty of room." He chewed his lip a bit, looking a little embarrassed.? "It doesn't have electricity or running water.? And you have to fly or swim or have a boat to get there. But it does have a great view of the harbor and the city skyline," he added, grinning weakly.? "Anyway, you're all welcome." The androgyne hesitated, then walked up to Kites and hugged him impulsively.? "Come with me," he said softly, looking up into the taller youth's eyes.? "I'll take care of you. It won't be as fancy or comfortable as this place, but at least we won't have to worry about pleasing anyone else." Tag: Kat, Gen, Kites, Mia, Ireland, Chord and Harrison, Brandon |

Re: Port Vega: The Real Test Begins.
Jhwulfven
(Gen) Gen busied himself with digging into his plates of food as the others drifted into the room. He winked at Kites when the winged youth chose the seat to Gen's left, but otherwise kept his display of affection to what he'd read would be considered a discreet minimum. And he smiled and said a cheerful "Good morning" to Ireland when she sat in the seat to his right. Glancing around the table, the androgyne made a quick study of the others. He knew he wasn't good yet at reading faces and body language but he could only learn by trying. Kat seemed upbeat, much like her usual self. Brandon seemed to be subdued. Mia gave the impression of being cheerful and yet disapproving, both at the same time. ? Chord then gave a little talk, saying he wanted to know how they all felt about yesterday. Brandon proceeded to go first, so Gen just listened as the man stood, said his behavior had been unbecoming of a leader, and then sat down again. Gen wasn't sure what to make of that, except for the thought that it apparently took very little to shake Brandon's confidence. ? Kat stood up next, said her brief piece, trying to make Brandon feel better and let Chord know what she thought of the test in fairly mild terms, then sat down again. Gen immediately wanted to chime in and stood up. ? "Yesterday sucked, Mister Chord," the androgyne said. He nodded to Kat as he added "And 'overkill' is definitely the right word for it."? Looking back to Chord and Harrison, he went on. "I don't know much about a lot of things, but I do know something about training. I went through several different kinds at the lab. And I know that 'training' does _not_ mean putting someone in a Mars lander with no manual and telling them they've got five minutes before impact with the planet's surface. Which is kind of what you did to us yesterday. So it shouldn't be any surprise that we crashed and burned." ? Gen paused for a moment, taking a deep breath, then went on. "I _want_ to be here. I want to be a part of this group. And I'll do whatever it takes for that to happen. But you need to do better too, sir. Anyway, that's _this_ lab rat's opinion, for what it's worth." The androgyne sat down again and listened to see what Kites and Mia might have to add. ? (Kites) Kites was none too happy to have reached his turn to speak.?

Thank you Mia, for not just hearing me but for taking the time to understand me through whatever hurt feelings my unfiltered honesty may have caused.”?He nodded a soft smile to Mia.? ? “With that being said, After yesterday and last night and today, Harrison and I have come to a decision.” He paused? ? “We have decided to disband this program effective immediately.??We realize that what we want for this program, what we want to accomplish is not properly lining up with the thoughts, ideas, goals, values and interest in the way we would like.?Knowing this, having a full understanding of the current and potential conflict this clash would cause if we continued would not be conducive to the necessary team growth needed to form strong long lasting bonds of trust, camaraderie and confidence between you and I and Ms Harrison and that would just be unfair and cruel to all of you. Contrary to what some of you may think. Cruel is never what I aspire to be... with anyone. ? “Thank you all for the time that you have given. I truly appreciate it. It was a pleasure to meet all of you. My door is always open if you should need anything.? ? Please stay and have your fill of breakfast. Whatever is left you are welcome to take with you. The clothing that has been provided for you for this week is yours to keep if you want it. so is the food in the mini bars. A car will be provided to you within the hour to take you anywhere in the city you would like to go.? ? Godspeed and Good Luck with you for you future endeavors. “ ? And with that he stood and moved towards where Harrison was sitting. She was about to speak, but Chord shook his head. And with that Harrison sighed softly and also stood. ? Harrison nodded to the occupants of the table and moved to fall into step beside Chord. As she moved past Mia, she handed the young woman an envelope. Chord opened the door held it open so that she could pass through and then the two left. ? Ireland looked up at Brandon. She was stunned but not at all surprised by what just happened. ? wow. Wow. The three of you are just something else. And Brandon I am so disappointed in you.” ? She said she was going to keep her thoughts to herself. Damn but she failed miserably with that one. ? ? ? Brandon looked at his sister and she seemed to want to go all in.? “Thank you!”? Was all he said as he stood up and left the room.? He made his way to his room.? Seemed his actions had really created more of a problem than anything.? He was not a natural born leader, he had try to put forth more effort.? He didn’t trust himself to lead beyond his head or his inner turmoil or his penis.? Since his father, his sister and Harrison seemed to believe that is where he was leading from.? He went to see his father, the best or the most he could do was give the rest of the group a chance.? Ireland deserved to be here and she made it pretty clear she was a better leader than him.? He would leave the team if it would give the others a chance to be better without him. Kat sat for a moment, not sure she heard what she heard. She understood what Chord and them were trying to do. The big picture as Mia had said but in her mind he took it a little to far. There were better ways to get tbe point across than the way Chord had tried. Still to just give up was not something she had thought he would have done. ?So when Chord and Harrison walked out, Kat honestly couldn't believe it. She looked to Brandon, who just stood up and left. This made her even more confused. Not sure what to do she looked to the others. "I'm heading up to my room. I'm going to collect my stuff and head back to my old place. There is room if you all want to crash for a while."? ? ?Kat stood and headed for the door. As she did she stopped and turned around. "I don't want to leave. This is the first time in my life that I have been around someone like me. I don't want to lose my friends."? Tag: Kat, Gen, Kites, Mia, Ireland, Chord and Harrison, Brandon

Re: High Moon Tales. Tales of the Wicked West.
(Callie Carson) ? ? Well, getting anything straight out of Chase was probably unlikely. She was suspicious of the woman laying on the cot in the sheriff's office.

At the same time, he contemplated the difficulties of the situation he and the others were in.? The mob howling outside the sheriff's office and clawing at the door didn't worry him all that much. The people with him inside the office had already proven that they were more than capable of protecting themselves, though the town itself being steadily decimated in the process.? The real problem was how were they going to get to Miller's Crossing with their path being constantly blocked or misdirected by some arcane means by party or parties unknown. ? Ordinarily the pookah would simply have opened a portal that could allow them to travel directly to the Crossing. But in order to do that, he would have had to have actually been there at least once, which he never had.?

Re: Port Vega: The Real Test Begins.
?(Kat)
Kat had felt her text go off before she had entered the room. She read it and it had made her smile. She had not had time to respond. So when Brandon came in she gave him a quick wink. She watched him sit and then pray. *Interesting.* she thought. ? Gen came in next. The androgynous collected his plate and then went and sat after he said hi to the bosses and both her and Brandon. Kat grinned, "Hello Gen." She could tell that he was in a better mood. ? Kites made his way in and Kat could smell his pheromones instantly when he came and gave her a brotherly hug. "I will tell ya later little brother." She smiled. He was smitten. That was plain to see as he dropped the bag next to Gen, then went and grabbed some food. ? Mia seemed to almost waltz in. Kat watched as she made her way to the food, grabbed a plate and then sat down. She was very graceful. "Good morning to you as well Mia." Kat replied. Her tone was welcoming. ? Ireland was the last to arrive. Though her tone was cheery, Kat caught her scent and knew that she was not as cheery as she was letting on. When she said hey, Kat grinned, "Evening." ? It was then that Chord spoke up. She listened as he laid out what they wanted as a whole. Despite what had happened yesterday he wanted to know what they were thinking. Kat had not thought that they would want yo know. She had had her own thoughts yesterday. Since then she had had time to think about it all. She had been about to start the conversation but Brandon stood up. ? She looked to Brandon as he spoke about following orders, not being a good leader and apologizing for his behavior. He then sat down. Kat could smell his worry when he looked to Ireland. She would talk with him later. ? Not seeing anyone standing right away she stood. She looked to Brandon and smiled. "I except your apology. Though I personally do not think you did to bad of a job. Seeing how none of us really knew each other’s powers that well before the tests. And none of us have ever worked together before yesterday either." She turned to look at Chord and Harrison. "I do understand what you were trying to do yesterday. Though I truly think that the last part of the testing yesterday was a bit overkill." She then sat down. ? (Gen) Gen busied himself with digging into his plates of food as the others drifted into the room. He winked at Kites when the winged youth chose the seat to Gen's left, but otherwise kept his display of affection to what he'd read would be considered a discreet minimum. And he smiled and said a cheerful "Good morning" to Ireland when she sat in the seat to his right. Glancing around the table, the androgyne made a quick study of the others. He knew he wasn't good yet at reading faces and body language but he could only learn by trying. Kat seemed upbeat, much like her usual self. Brandon seemed to be subdued. Mia gave the impression of being cheerful and yet disapproving, both at the same time. ? Chord then gave a little talk, saying he wanted to know how they all felt about yesterday. Brandon proceeded to go first, so Gen just listened as the man stood, said his behavior had been unbecoming of a leader, and then sat down again. Gen wasn't sure what to make of that, except for the thought that it apparently took very little to shake Brandon's confidence. ? Kat stood up next, said her brief piece, trying to make Brandon feel better and let Chord know what she thought of the test in fairly mild terms, then sat down again. Gen immediately wanted to chime in and stood up. ? "Yesterday sucked, Mister Chord," the androgyne said. He nodded to Kat as he added "And 'overkill' is definitely the right word for it."? Looking back to Chord and Harrison, he went on. "I don't know much about a lot of things, but I do know something about training. I went through several different kinds at the lab. And I know that 'training' does _not_ mean putting someone in a Mars lander with no manual and telling them they've got five minutes before impact with the planet's surface. Which is kind of what you did to us yesterday. So it shouldn't be any surprise that we crashed and burned." ? Gen paused for a moment, taking a deep breath, then went on. "I _want_ to be here. I want to be a part of this group. And I'll do whatever it takes for that to happen. But you need to do better too, sir. Anyway, that's _this_ lab rat's opinion, for what it's worth." The androgyne sat down again and listened to see what Kites and Mia might have to add. ? (Kites) Kites was none too happy to have reached his turn to speak.? As inviting as Chord tried to make it to get them to talk about yesterday, he was still butthurt about the way they all got scolded.? A very sick feeling welled in his stomach, like bile that was stuck in his throat, but he swallowed his bitterness down and stood up, causing the chair to scrape against the floor as he straightened out.? Bringing a fist to his face, he coughed to clear his pipes and then looked up, letting his hand drop back down to his side.? He hoped that he was able to fake enough confidence to not look like a coward.? In truth, he was quite nervous and a bit shaky.? It felt as if the whole world's attention was on him. ? "I...agree with everyone's comments.? The bar was set impossibly high and to expect us to know what it is and act as if we have years of experience, is too much to ask of people who at this point have never met before nor were familiar with each other," he said, trying to keep the jitters out of his voice.? The last part was a bit of a lie.? As of last night, he and Gen had gotten wicked familiar with each other, something he had hoped that'd do more and more in the future.? But that was neither here nor there.? He stealthily nudged Gen's foot, his mouth threatening to curl into a smile but he held back with all his might.? "That being said, I too want to be here.? We all signed up for this and I'm pretty sure that none of us want to give up just because yesterday was a bust.? I hope that you won't give up on us either...*cough* That's all I want to say for now."? With that, he sat back down and dug into his food.? He wanted to reach for Gen under the table, to grab hold of his hand, but he refrained.? Better keep his own affectations to a minimum as he was sure that their slightest movements would be noticed by Chord's watchful eyes. ? (Mia) Mia had listened to Brandon’s apology then the other’s input of yesterday not being fair and what not.? She understood what Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison were doing.? It seemed like it was her turn and she stood.??“Well, Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison, I understood for the most part what you were trying to do yesterday.? We,” she gestured around the table, “did not seem to understand as a whole what was going on.? The first part with working through the different obstacles, that was understood and everyone worked as they were supposed to.? Individually at first, then as a team.? The second part with the robots just seemed a bit, too much at that time.? Granted, Brandon tried to tell us what to do and informed us of what he knew about the bots.? But then everyone tried to take things into their own hands more or less.? I did follow what Kat suggested, but until I became covered in wet mud, I didn’t realize the bots could read heat signatures.??As soon as I realized it was a losing battle and the one couldn’t find me, I decided the best course of action was to retreat.? Then Gen decided to send off some kind of screeching that was not conducive and more or less almost deafened us all.??All in all, yes, I understand that you all,” she looked at the team around the table, “felt it was overkill and too much.? So, did I, however, the team efforts that we had put in on the obstacle course was suddenly gone and everyone seemed to panic.? And that is what Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison were doing.? They wanted to see what we would do in a sudden attack.? And well, we failed miserably.”?? With that she sat back down. ? (Ireland, Chord, Harrison) ? When Mia was done speaking she wanted to clap and shout yes! Finally someone who got it. But even though that was her character, even though that’s how she felt saying that would have been totally out of line. So she remained quiet.? ? She also didn’t take her turn to speak “I was not in the room during the exercise so I don’t think it would add to the conversation for me to speak my thoughts on yesterday” she said softly. ? Which was true. She didn’t think anyone wanted to hear how she thought they were all sexed crazed teenagers who were squandering an mass opportunity. ? She wondered if Kat and Kites realized just how telling their behavior and innuendos were as they sat. It was a small conference room and they were all sitting at the same table. You would have to deaf and blind not see what was going on with them. ? Even Brandon. Did he really just send her a text while sitting there. Really dude? She was a bit surprised when she saw him looking down at something under the table and realized it was his phone when her phone vibrated against her back side. ? God...this guy. ? ? It made her wonder just how old everyone was. They all seemed so young and a bit immature...everyone but Mia. She actually seemed to be the most mature out of all of them...even her..even more so than Brandon and he was older than all of them and had been with Chord the longest. ? When everyone was finish speaking Chord’s deep thoughtful brown eyes meet Harrison’s across the table. Although the look the two shared was unreadable, it would be obvious in the room that the two shared a moment.? ? After a beat, he nodded his head. And steepled his hands. “I just want you all to know that I appreciate what all of you have said here today.??Really I do. We asked you to speak up because we wanted to hear your thoughts on the matter. Find out where all of your heads are. Thank you all for sharing so freely.? ? “Mia is right.??In everything she said.

Re: The Door Between Two Worlds [Roue and Rabbit] (closed)
(Rabbit)
[Roue] As the young looking boy began to convulse beneath the elf, Roue instinctively wrapped his arm around his partner's body, holding him tight to his own body, feeling the convulsions with his entire being.? Though he had just cum himself, becoming flaccid as a result, the way Rabbit twisted in his grasp seemed to stoke the fire in him again and he felt himself get halfway to being hard.? How could one not when their lover seemed to having the orgasm of his life?? Using the other hand, he continued squeezing his bed mate's cock as if to coax all of the cum out of his churning sack, feeling the sticky liquid cover his fingers as it continued to spurt out.? Having been previously much cooler than his taller lover, Rabbit's body suddenly began to warm up in complete antithesis to the previous times.? A sudden curious thought came to his mind to raise his hand, to examine how the other's secretions looked like but before he could do that, Rabbit suddenly grasped hold of his and pulled him forward.? The elf gasped as he felt his lover's lips close around his wrist and before he even realized what was happening, he suddenly experienced an intense head rush. The feeling was almost indescribable, unlike anything he's ever experienced himself or with his previous partners.? It was akin to being caught in a whirlpool of emotions that threatened to take you under, drowning you, except the feeling was not one of fear and dread but rather one of extreme euphoria.? A thousand tiny pinpricks of pleasure made his skin uncontrollably tingle as an exhilarating shiver made its way down his spine.? What was this, this amazing head rush?? It forced him to hyperventilate, gasping for air, the lack of which was immediately apparent in his lungs that seemed to be on fire.? Delirium started to take over as he swayed, an insane smile gracing his face as his eyes became half-lidded at the same time.? The stimulation, however, was starting to become too much for the experienced wizard, his body starting to react to the volatile energy that was building up inside.? Just as it threatened to tip him over the edge, the feeling suddenly stopped and before he knew what he was doing, Roue collapsed onto his side, rolling over to his back as he stared up at the ceiling. "W-what was that?" he asked breathlessly, turning his head to look at Rabbit whose hot tongue was now lapping at the elf's wrist.? "That was...that was absolutely incredible..."? His chest heaved as he tried to catch his breath, attempting to make sense of what has happened, or even where or _when_ he was, but the more he tried, the more disoriented he become so he simply stopped trying.? Roue wanted to reach for Rabbit as the boy set about frantically cleaning the soiled area around them, but he found he couldn't move a single inch as a wave of extreme exhaustion hit him like a ton of bricks, instead opting to just patiently wait.? He couldn't take his eyes off him, however, watching his every move, until his lover finally finished and curled up against the elf, once again sharing in the feeling of closeness.? As much as he wanted to enjoy the afterglow of their intense love-making, his fatigue was starting to overtake him and though he tried to blink it all away, the lower his lids got, the less he was able to raise them, and eventually, losing that fight, his eyes tightly shut and he fell into a deep sleep.

Feeling that all too familiar feeling welling up inside him, he spend up his movement, pulling out only enough to slam back in with even harder force.? Try as he might to hold himself back, wanting to enjoy this even more, the way his bed mate was clenching his muscles, as if to trap his cock inside, was just enough to push him over the edge. With a loud groan, his body convulsed as he bent forward, shaking as if he was having a seizure in slow motion.? Closing his eyes as he rode out the wave, explosions like fireworks appeared beneath his lids.?

The grip that he had on lover's own throbbing length intensified as he endeavored to bring him to his orgasm also.? He knew Rabbit was getting, if not already there, by the way his cock swelled up.? He continued thrusting for a bit as his own tsunami slowly receded back. As if to coax his bed mate even further into it, he nudged at Rabbit's neck with his nose, forcing the other's head to tilt to the side.? As he did so, Roue roughly bit into that dip that joined the shoulder to the throat, leaving big, red welts in his skin.? The elf licked his way up, tongue flicking at Rabbit's inner lobe, moaning out into his ear. "<Cum for me, little Rabbit.? Don't keep me waiting too long...>," the taller youth commanded, as he thrust into him again, just about ready to pull out. (Rabbit) The sudden flood of hot urgent cum spurting into his needy boi-hole pushed Rabbit into orgasm, and the little vampire began shaking beneath Roue, crying out and spasming as he came.? His eyes were now gleaming a bright red and his slender body grew suddenly warm as it absorbed the life-giving cum filling his butt.? He'd discovered a long time ago that cum was just as sustaining as blood and had made good use of that knowledge over the years. ? But then the elf impulsively bit him on his neck, which heightened Rabbit's vampiric orgasm to near frenzy.? Unable to hold back any longer, the little vampire seized Roue's forearm and sank his fangs into the elf's wrist and began to feed, hoping that the euphoria that came with a vampire's 'kiss' would keep Roue from realizing what was happening. And from remembering it later.? Rabbit whimpered and trembled in ecstasy as hot fresh blood filled his mouth even as more spurts of hot fresh semen filled his butt. When his orgasm finally faded, the little vampire recovered his senses and realized what he'd done.? Glancing up over his shoulder, Rabbit saw that Roue did seem to be somewhat dazed. He quickly licked the wound on Roue's wrist closed, then grabbed a small towel he kept under the bed and began cleaning up his tell-tale crimson emissions, making sure to wipe all traces from his the elf's hand and fingers.? That done, he finally relaxed and curled up against Roue's warm and sweaty body, enjoying the closeness of the elf and the afterglow he felt as his own body absorbed its double-helping of cum and blood.? "Th-thank you, Roue," he whispered, discreetly kissing the elf's cheek as he settled down to wait for his bed-mate to recover, hoping that the elf would only remember the erotic feelings of what he'd done and not the exact memories.? And hoping that he wouldn't have to explain this to the club's owner. Tag - Roue |

Re: What Lies in the Heart. Mikayla/The Dragon

(The Dragon)
"I am not a grumpy ogre!" the Dragon snarled, little wisps of smoke emerging from his nostrils. His scale-ridged eyes blinked reflectively for a moment before he amended himself, grumbling less loudly "Well, I'm not an ogre, anyway." ?
"Oh, I left quite a bit of chicken in the soup, mistress," Angus said as he ladled soup into a large ceramic bowl he retrieved from under the cart.? "I can't get the master to eat anything unless there's a fair amount of meat in it." He glanced uncertainly at Mikayla and the Dragon, then at the bowl he was holding.? "Will you be needing anything else to... to serve the Master with, mistress? I'm not sure if he can manage drinking from this bowl."
?
"I am not a child to be fed, Angus!" the Dragon fumed.? "You may leave us.? Go... go find something to clean," he said finally, weakly waving a taloned hand in dismissal.? When the serving man had departed, he turned a suspicious eye towards Mikayla.? "Just how _do_ you plan on feeding me, girl?" (Mikayla) She rolled her eyes as he turned his ire on Angus. She gave Angus a soft smile as he departed and stood. "And that is why I called you a grumpy ogre. You were just incredibly rude to the one person in this world who cares for you and wants to help you for simply wanting to help you. But you are right," she said as she moved to the main barrel where Angus had left the soup, she took the large ladle out and moved back to him. "But you are right, you are not an ogre, i insult ogre by using them to describe you."? She teased? ? "I plan to help you eat by using this," she said dipping the ladle into the ceramic bowl. She blew on the soup for a bit, in the way a mother would do and then turn to him " Do you plan to let me help or will you shout me away too?" she asked poised with the delicious smelling soup, ready to spoon into his mouth.?? |

Re: Seven Fingers- Calon y M?r (Sara, Henri, Kir, John)
<John Merriweather>
??? Uninvited Bonnie popped up with four cups of grog, passed them out, and took a seat next to Sara, giving her a wink. John raised his eyebrow at the serving wench, but said nothing. ??? “When I was ‘recovering’ the Lady Kir from Port Royale,” John began, sipping his grog, “at the Captain’s request by the way, I was confronted, well actually the Royal Marines were and I was in their company… Suffice to say it’s a long story, anywise, we were confronted by a magus wielding an incredible amount of power. He was, apparently, channeling an elemental. A well placed crossbow quarrel broke his concentration, and he lost control of it. I believe he survived, but the elemental slipped his binding and returned to the harbor near here.” ??? He took a sip of his grog and expounded. “Magic users leave traces of themselves in the spells they cast, much line fingerprints. I have crossed paths with that magi’s work before. The first time was on the spell that made you, Sara, a zombie before we met. The second when the Seven Fingers captured the Diablo Vega, and the demon they set in a trap nearly tore you to shreds. The third time I sensed his presence through an apprentice when the Seven Fingers was attacked by the fire elemental in Crescent Harbor.” He sighed, “and most recently, I felt his presence in the storm that nearly sank us, and sent the Seven Fingers into the repair docks here in Kingston. ??? “For some reason,” John said, “he seems to have it out for our little ship. At the very least he is aligned with the Spaniards. If I can find this entity and remove his influence then it won’t be a weapon against the Seven Fingers and His Majesty's Navy. If I can’t neutralize the threat then I’m fairly sure we will be sunk before we reach Grand Cayman and home.” ??? The thaumatologist took a deep sigh. “Anyway, that is the task as I see it, and what has delayed my return to the Captain. In the absence of higher ranking officers I have a duty to protect the ship, at the expense of my own life if necessary.?When you, Sara dear, showed up out of the blue demanding that I return to the Captain, well, I thought you had been enchanted somehow, compromised. I am truly sorry.” ??? He took another deep sigh and a swig of grog. “Anywise, I used a spell to temporarily ‘kill’ the lady Kirschvasser and myself so that we might enter the spirit realm, contact the entity, and perhaps see if you were in need of help.” He waved his hands in the air, “and here we are! Ta-Da!” ? ? “ ‘E talks pretty, ‘e does,” Bonnie interjected. “A bit loquacious, but pretty. Sounds almost like the Cap'n, 'e does.” <Kir> ?
? ?Kir looked to John when he commented that he had crossed paths with the magic user work before. She looked to Sara when John commented that she had been a zombie. Kir had trouble picturing Sara as a zombie. Then again, zombies were not one of Kir's favorite things. As John continued on Kir took a swing of the grog. It tasted pretty good. Then she pondered, how does taste work here is she was dead. Something she would have to ask later about.?
? ?When John was done Kir looked to Sara and smiled. "I know it may not sound like it, he is sorry though. He, we were worried about you. Like he said, you were part of the reason we are here. I know I haven't known you for very long, but I like you and consider you a friend. And I always try to help my friends."? <Sara Merrick> As she listened to all that was said around her, Sara frowned. And the more that was said, the more her frown deepened. "So let me make sure I am understanding because the more you speak the more confused I get. What you are telling me is that you treated me cruelly, rudely and meanly because you thought I had been taken over by some spirit but as your friend, as Miss Kir would have me to believe you see me as. And you decided to dismiss me." She blinked. "I want to go on record as saying I think that is a horrible way to treat your friends. And being that you know how difficult it was for me to be a zombie the fact that you would bring that up so casually. I tell you John Merriweather, the way you are acting now. If I didn't know better I would say that it is in fact that you that have been possed by an evil spirit." she said fighting back the tears of such a horrible experience.? She had lost her life then, having not being able to get back to her body in time and now she was trapped in this in between.?Sara took a deep breath then. "Thank you Lady Kir for your kind words. I do appreciate your friendship. But I truly doubt worry if what Mr. Merriweather felt for me. Even if he apologizing for it now. But I have decided let bygones be and to stay and listen to your plan. So Mr. Merriweather let's have it. What are you thinking about doing. "? TAG:? |

Re: Port Vega: The Real Test Begins.
开云体育(Brandon)Brandon didn’t want to say anything but he realized nothing
was going to go on until someone said something.? “I am open to following orders and understand
my behavior was unbecoming of a leader and I apologize to one and all.”? He said before sitting down.? He couldn’t be angry about losing his job…it
was his fault. He couldn’t be mad at Ireland for taking it.? She was deserving.? He was just not fit to lead.? He got that so he would go back to being the
good soldier and following orders.? Maybe
he would be better next time, he could deal with being a team player.? He would just be quiet for now. He did look at Ireland, she didn’t seem too worse for
wear.? If anything she looked tired.? Was she up all night?? He sighed and moved to sneak his phone out of
his pocket.? <<I am truly very
sorry.? I didn’t mean to put you in this
position…I am not mad at you…I am mad at myself.? And I am sorry for not being…stronger when
you needed me to be.? I love you!> He realized he sucked as a big brother, had he been more
focused on getting through the scenario instead of focusing on how fair it
wasn’t or how tired he was or how his own mind kept him from truly excelling in
the scenarios.? He kept seeing Raine as
hold him back and he wasn’t even here any more sure his brother was an asshat,
but he definitely didn’t kill him, but he truly remained in that shadow of
inferiority of his.? Raine had taken his
mind helping to make him insecure…sure but it was still apparently his choice
to remain there.? Yeah, Ireland was just a better leader in that regard…she
was more like Harrison in that vein just black and white so she could make the
tough calls when he was a bit more emotional in his responses.? He was sitting there he was sitting up
straight but in truth, there was a part of him that was…mentally defeated by
the demotion.? Something even he wasn’t
really willing to admit too just yet. (Kat) Kat had felt her text go off before she had entered the
room. She read it and it had made her smile. She had not had time to respond.
So when Brandon came in she gave him a quick wink. She watched him sit and then
pray. *Interesting.* she thought. Gen came in next. The androgynous collected his plate and
then went and sat after he said hi to the bosses and both her and Brandon. Kat
grinned, "Hello Gen." She could tell that he was in a better mood. Kites made his way in and Kat could smell his pheromones
instantly when he came and gave her a brotherly hug. "I will tell ya later
little brother." She smiled. He was smitten. That was plain to see as he
dropped the bag next to Gen, then went and grabbed some food. Mia seemed to almost waltz in. Kat watched as she made her
way to the food, grabbed a plate and then sat down. She was very graceful.
"Good morning to you as well Mia." Kat replied. Her tone was
welcoming. Ireland was the last to arrive. Though her tone was cheery,
Kat caught her scent and knew that she was not as cheery as she was letting on.
When she said hey, Kat grinned, "Evening." It was then that Chord spoke up. She listened as he laid out
what they wanted as a whole. Despite what had happened yesterday he wanted to
know what they were thinking. Kat had not thought that they would want yo know.
She had had her own thoughts yesterday. Since then she had had time to think
about it all. She had been about to start the conversation but Brandon stood
up. She looked to Brandon as he spoke about following orders,
not being a good leader and apologizing for his behavior. He then sat down. Kat
could smell his worry when he looked to Ireland. She would talk with him later. Not seeing anyone standing right away she stood. She looked
to Brandon and smiled. "I except your apology. Though I personally do not
think you did to bad of a job. Seeing how none of us really knew each other’s
powers that well before the tests. And none of us have ever worked together
before yesterday either." She turned to look at Chord and Harrison.
"I do understand what you were trying to do yesterday. Though I truly
think that the last part of the testing yesterday was a bit overkill." She
then sat down. (Gen) Gen busied himself with digging into his plates of food as
the others drifted into the room. He winked at Kites when the winged youth
chose the seat to Gen's left, but otherwise kept his display of affection to
what he'd read would be considered a discreet minimum. And he smiled and said a
cheerful "Good morning" to Ireland when she sat in the seat to his
right. Glancing around the table, the androgyne made a quick study of the
others. He knew he wasn't good yet at reading faces and body language but he
could only learn by trying. Kat seemed upbeat, much like her usual self.
Brandon seemed to be subdued. Mia gave the impression of being cheerful and yet
disapproving, both at the same time. Chord then gave a little talk, saying he wanted to know how
they all felt about yesterday. Brandon proceeded to go first, so Gen just
listened as the man stood, said his behavior had been unbecoming of a leader,
and then sat down again. Gen wasn't sure what to make of that, except for the
thought that it apparently took very little to shake Brandon's confidence. Kat stood up next, said her brief piece, trying to make
Brandon feel better and let Chord know what she thought of the test in fairly
mild terms, then sat down again. Gen immediately wanted to chime in and stood
up. "Yesterday sucked, Mister Chord," the androgyne
said. He nodded to Kat as he added "And 'overkill' is definitely the right
word for it."? Looking back to Chord
and Harrison, he went on. "I don't know much about a lot of things, but I
do know something about training. I went through several different kinds at the
lab. And I know that 'training' does _not_ mean putting someone in a Mars
lander with no manual and telling them they've got five minutes before impact
with the planet's surface. Which is kind of what you did to us yesterday. So it
shouldn't be any surprise that we crashed and burned." Gen paused for a moment, taking a deep breath, then went on.
"I _want_ to be here. I want to be a part of this group. And I'll do
whatever it takes for that to happen. But you need to do better too, sir.
Anyway, that's _this_ lab rat's opinion, for what it's worth." The
androgyne sat down again and listened to see what Kites and Mia might have to
add. (Kites) Kites was none too happy to have reached his turn to
speak.? As inviting as Chord tried to
make it to get them to talk about yesterday, he was still butthurt about the
way they all got scolded.? A very sick
feeling welled in his stomach, like bile that was stuck in his throat, but he
swallowed his bitterness down and stood up, causing the chair to scrape against
the floor as he straightened out.?
Bringing a fist to his face, he coughed to clear his pipes and then
looked up, letting his hand drop back down to his side.? He hoped that he was able to fake enough
confidence to not look like a coward.? In
truth, he was quite nervous and a bit shaky.?
It felt as if the whole world's attention was on him. "I...agree with everyone's comments.? The bar was set impossibly high and to expect
us to know what it is and act as if we have years of experience, is too much to
ask of people who at this point have never met before nor were familiar with
each other," he said, trying to keep the jitters out of his voice.? The last part was a bit of a lie.? As of last night, he and Gen had gotten
wicked familiar with each other, something he had hoped that'd do more and more
in the future.? But that was neither here
nor there.? He stealthily nudged Gen's
foot, his mouth threatening to curl into a smile but he held back with all his
might.? "That being said, I too want
to be here.? We all signed up for this
and I'm pretty sure that none of us want to give up just because yesterday was
a bust.? I hope that you won't give up on
us either...*cough* That's all I want to say for now."? With that, he sat back down and dug into his
food.? He wanted to reach for Gen under
the table, to grab hold of his hand, but he refrained.? Better keep his own affectations to a minimum
as he was sure that their slightest movements would be noticed by Chord's
watchful eyes. (Mia) Mia had listened to Brandon’s apology then the other’s input of yesterday not being
fair and what not.? She understood what
Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison were doing.?
It seemed like it was her turn and she stood.??“Well, Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison, I
understood for the most part what you were trying to do yesterday.? We,” she gestured around the table, “did not
seem to understand as a whole what was going on.? The first part with working through the
different obstacles, that was understood and everyone worked as they were
supposed to.? Individually at first, then
as a team.? The second part with the
robots just seemed a bit, too much at that time.? Granted, Brandon tried to tell us what to do
and informed us of what he knew about the bots.?
But then everyone tried to take things into their own hands more or
less.? I did follow what Kat suggested, but
until I became covered in wet mud, I didn’t realize the bots could read heat
signatures.??As soon as I realized it was
a losing battle and the one couldn’t find me, I decided the best course of
action was to retreat.? Then Gen decided
to send off some kind of screeching that was not conducive and more or less
almost deafened us all.??All in all, yes,
I understand that you all,” she looked at the team around the table, “felt it
was overkill and too much.? So, did I,
however, the team efforts that we had put in on the obstacle course was
suddenly gone and everyone seemed to panic.?
And that is what Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison were doing.? They wanted to see what we would do in a
sudden attack.? And well, we failed
miserably.”?? With that she sat back
down. (Ireland, Chord, Harrison) When Mia was done speaking she wanted to clap and shout yes! Finally someone who got it. But even though that was her character, even though that’s how she felt saying that would have been totally out of line. So she remained quiet.? She also didn’t take her turn to speak “I was not in the room during the exercise so I don’t think it would add to the conversation for me to speak my thoughts on yesterday” she said softly. Which was true. She didn’t think anyone wanted to hear how she thought they were all sexed crazed teenagers who were squandering an mass opportunity. She wondered if Kat and Kites realized just how telling their behavior and innuendos were as they sat. It was a small conference room and they were all sitting at the same table. You would have to deaf and blind not see what was going on with them. Even Brandon. Did he really just send her a text while sitting there. Really dude? She was a bit surprised when she saw him looking down at something under the table and realized it was his phone when her phone vibrated against her back side. God...this guy. It made her wonder just how old everyone was. They all seemed so young and a bit immature...everyone but Mia. She actually seemed to be the most mature out of all of them...even her..even more so than Brandon and he was older than all of them and had been with Chord the longest. When everyone was finish speaking Chord’s deep thoughtful brown eyes meet Harrison’s across the table. Although the look the two shared was unreadable, it would be obvious in the room that the two shared a moment.? After a beat, he nodded his head. And steepled his hands. “I just want you all to know that I appreciate what all of you have said here today.??Really I do. We asked you to speak up because we wanted to hear your thoughts on the matter. Find out where all of your heads are. Thank you all for sharing so freely.? “Mia is right.??In everything she said. I explained that very same sentiment after Gen’s expressed her feelings yesterday. Thank you Mia, for not just hearing me but for taking the time to understand me through whatever hurt feelings my unfiltered honesty may have caused.”?He nodded a soft smile to Mia.? “With that being said, After yesterday and last night and today, Harrison and I have come to a decision.” He paused? “We have decided to disband this program effective immediately.??We realize that what we want for this program, what we want to accomplish is not properly lining up with the thoughts, ideas, goals, values and interest in the way we would like.?Knowing this, having a full understanding of the current and potential conflict this clash would cause if we continued would not be conducive to the necessary team growth needed to form strong long lasting bonds of trust, camaraderie and confidence between you and I and Ms Harrison and that would just be unfair and cruel to all of you. Contrary to what some of you may think. Cruel is never what I aspire to be... with anyone. “Thank you all for the time that you have given. I truly appreciate it. It was a pleasure to meet all of you. My door is always open if you should need anything.? Please stay and have your fill of breakfast. Whatever is left you are welcome to take with you. The clothing that has been provided for you for this week is yours to keep if you want it. so is the food in the mini bars. A car will be provided to you within the hour to take you anywhere in the city you would like to go.? Godspeed and Good Luck with you for you future endeavors. “ And with that he stood and moved towards where Harrison was sitting. She was about to speak, but Chord shook his head. And with that Harrison sighed softly and also stood. Harrison nodded to the occupants of the table and moved to fall into step beside Chord. As she moved past Mia, she handed the young woman an envelope. Chord opened the door held it open so that she could pass through and then the two left. Ireland looked up at Brandon. She was stunned but not at all surprised by what just happened. wow. Wow. The three of you are just something else. And Brandon I am so disappointed in you.” She said she was going to keep her thoughts to herself. Damn but she failed miserably with that one. ? Tag: Brandon, Kat, Gen, Kites, Mia, Ireland, Chord and

Re: Port Vega: The Real Test Begins.
(Ireland) After she met with Raine, Ireland didn't go straight home.
In fact, she didn't go home. She simply walked. Wandering all over the city.
She walked to the park and sat by the fountain and watched as the large pretty
spray play and danced. She meandered through the back trails of the park to
find herself sitting by the edge of the lake that ran through it. She watched
as the ducks and geese swam. She wandered about thirty blocks to the heart of downtown.
Watching as the hustle and bustle of the busyness of Port Vega slowly die down.
The witching hour came and she found herself moving through the Riverview
section of town--an area that if the men in her family ever found out she had
been there alone at night, each and every single one of them would kill her…and
she didn’t even want to think about what Imme would do. She scored there. Ireland continued to wander with no clear direction of where
she was going until she found her laying in the sand down near the beach at 4
o'clock in the morning looking up at the stars wondering about the deep night
sky taking a long hit of a dooby. Yeah they were all gonna kill her…She was being uncharacteristically destructive tonight…okay
maybe not uncharacteristically, both Brandon and Raine had stories about her temper
and what destruction it could do when she unleashed it, but she wasn’t made…she
felt terrible. She had been the one to hurt her brother. She saw
Brandon…her was crushed and that had been her fault. Out of the three of them,
Brandon had always been the most sensitive. Maybe it was that middle child
thing she didn’t know. But she knew Brandon and she knew his insecurities and
she was responsible for playing into one of his major hang-ups. The feeling
like he wasn’t good enough. She had taken his job. And the worst part about it was that
she actually agreed with Chord.? Brandon
wasn't the right person for the job of leader. Brandon, on paper seemed like
the best choice and the most qualified one to be team lead. At 21, he was the
oldest of them all. He had been the one who had been working with Chord the
longest. But he was in no way competent enough to be leader, mentor or role
model for this group. And it was because of his hang-up and insecurities that
did it…held him back…kept him from being what Chord needed, what this group
needed, what she needed. And she knew it and she felt terrible being the one to
exploit that and point that out. It was never her intention…but you know what
they said about intentions.Ireland looked up to see the oranges and pinks and purples
and blues of the sky and knew she had to get home.? She couldn’t be late…not on her first day…not
before she did the unthinkable. God this was a bad idea…but it was the only
idea she had. Because she didn’t want to do this. Ireland had always been a private person wearing a mask to keep
people out…even her family didn’t always see her real self if they didn’t look
deeper. And being raised with men, they tended to not look past the surface of
what she showed them. And now Chord wanted her to share with them…these
people…with a bunch of strangers. Now he wanted her to engage in something that
she had never engaged in. Not since…that only two people in her life knew she
could do. Hell, she hadn't even told Brandon or Raine (even if Raine probably
knew. He was observant like that) and now Chord wanted to baptize her by fire…As she walked in, she found Chord waiting for her, sitting
on the floor outside her room looking every much like a dad. She smiled inside
herself.? And that was why she loved him. “Hey,” he said “Hey,” she said back. “You OK.” he said “Yeah, I'm good” she said look at her feet, pushing a red
strand from her face. Chord sighed. “Look, Squirt, I am wanna talk to you about
what happened yesterday.” “I really have to get dressed get ready. The sound of
reverie is going to be playing soon and it would never do if I were late my
first day on the job. And I need to take a shower and change my clothes so can
we talk about this later,” she said moving placing her hand on the door to
unlock her bedroom. The door opened and she stepped inside.?Chord face went sad but he nodded. “Later,” he said giving
her a tight hug. Once he let her go, Ireland rushed inside taking a deep
breath. The minute she was inside her shoulders slumped. Moving into the
shower, Ireland found herself with her head against the stall as water ran down
over it. Typically she only like to get her hair wet on wash day…she simply had
too much hair to wet any other time because it always took too long to dry but
in this case she was trying really hard not to cry so she indulged. When she was done, she stepped out the shower, towel dried
her fluffy red mane of curls put in some moisturizer sealant to lock in the
moisture and braided her hair into two French braids down the each side of her
head in a style she called her Helga. The braids ended right at her breast and
dripped making her shirt breast wet. She towel dried the rest of her hair
hoping that the braids would stop dripping, put on the black high neck
sweatshirt and the black jeans, grab the messenger bag and move to classroom B. Before she walk she took a deep breath, her voice cheery like
it was when she had meet everyone the day before. “Hey party people.” she said
thankful that Harry’s back was too her because out of everyone in this room who
would know she was out of sorts, it would be her. She took the last remaining
seat at the oval conference table between Gen and Mia. Once she was seated, Chord cleared his throat. “So, A lot
happened yesterday. There were some good things and there were some not so good
things. I wanted to take this moment before we start our day to give you all an
opportunity to express how you felt about yesterday. Contrary to what any of
you may think, there is a method to Harrison and my madness. And we do care
about you and your personal safety and well-being and mental health. You are
not here to be our perfect little soldiers. You are here to be a part of a
meaningful team which I hope will grow into family. So we do want to know exactly
what's on your mind and how you felt about yesterday and what you went through
and how everything ended up and how you felt about it. And while we ask that
you do please speak freely. I'm also asking you to please be respectful and be
prepared for any rebuttal that you may get. Be opened minded and try to see it
from a point of view other than your own. Now with that being said, who would
like to go first.” (Brandon) Brandon didn’t want to say anything but he realized nothing
was going to go on until someone said something.? “I am open to following orders and understand
my behavior was unbecoming of a leader and I apologize to one and all.”? He said before sitting down.? He couldn’t be angry about losing his job…it
was his fault. He couldn’t be mad at Ireland for taking it.? She was deserving.? He was just not fit to lead.? He got that so he would go back to being the
good soldier and following orders.? Maybe
he would be better next time, he could deal with being a team player.? He would just be quiet for now. He did look at Ireland, she didn’t seem too worse for
wear.? If anything she looked tired.? Was she up all night?? He sighed and moved to sneak his phone out of
his pocket.? <<I am truly very
sorry.? I didn’t mean to put you in this
position…I am not mad at you…I am mad at myself.? And I am sorry for not being…stronger when
you needed me to be.? I love you!> He realized he sucked as a big brother, had he been more
focused on getting through the scenario instead of focusing on how fair it
wasn’t or how tired he was or how his own mind kept him from truly excelling in
the scenarios.? He kept seeing Raine as
hold him back and he wasn’t even here any more sure his brother was an asshat,
but he definitely didn’t kill him, but he truly remained in that shadow of
inferiority of his.? Raine had taken his
mind helping to make him insecure…sure but it was still apparently his choice
to remain there.? Yeah, Ireland was just a better leader in that regard…she
was more like Harrison in that vein just black and white so she could make the
tough calls when he was a bit more emotional in his responses.? He was sitting there he was sitting up
straight but in truth, there was a part of him that was…mentally defeated by
the demotion.? Something even he wasn’t
really willing to admit too just yet. (Kat) Kat had felt her text go off before she had entered the
room. She read it and it had made her smile. She had not had time to respond.
So when Brandon came in she gave him a quick wink. She watched him sit and then
pray. *Interesting.* she thought. Gen came in next. The androgynous collected his plate and
then went and sat after he said hi to the bosses and both her and Brandon. Kat
grinned, "Hello Gen." She could tell that he was in a better mood. Kites made his way in and Kat could smell his pheromones
instantly when he came and gave her a brotherly hug. "I will tell ya later
little brother." She smiled. He was smitten. That was plain to see as he
dropped the bag next to Gen, then went and grabbed some food. Mia seemed to almost waltz in. Kat watched as she made her
way to the food, grabbed a plate and then sat down. She was very graceful.
"Good morning to you as well Mia." Kat replied. Her tone was
welcoming. Ireland was the last to arrive. Though her tone was cheery,
Kat caught her scent and knew that she was not as cheery as she was letting on.
When she said hey, Kat grinned, "Evening." It was then that Chord spoke up. She listened as he laid out
what they wanted as a whole. Despite what had happened yesterday he wanted to
know what they were thinking. Kat had not thought that they would want yo know.
She had had her own thoughts yesterday. Since then she had had time to think
about it all. She had been about to start the conversation but Brandon stood
up. She looked to Brandon as he spoke about following orders,
not being a good leader and apologizing for his behavior. He then sat down. Kat
could smell his worry when he looked to Ireland. She would talk with him later. Not seeing anyone standing right away she stood. She looked
to Brandon and smiled. "I except your apology. Though I personally do not
think you did to bad of a job. Seeing how none of us really knew each other’s
powers that well before the tests. And none of us have ever worked together
before yesterday either." She turned to look at Chord and Harrison.
"I do understand what you were trying to do yesterday. Though I truly
think that the last part of the testing yesterday was a bit overkill." She
then sat down. (Gen) Gen busied himself with digging into his plates of food as
the others drifted into the room. He winked at Kites when the winged youth
chose the seat to Gen's left, but otherwise kept his display of affection to
what he'd read would be considered a discreet minimum. And he smiled and said a
cheerful "Good morning" to Ireland when she sat in the seat to his
right. Glancing around the table, the androgyne made a quick study of the
others. He knew he wasn't good yet at reading faces and body language but he
could only learn by trying. Kat seemed upbeat, much like her usual self.
Brandon seemed to be subdued. Mia gave the impression of being cheerful and yet
disapproving, both at the same time. Chord then gave a little talk, saying he wanted to know how
they all felt about yesterday. Brandon proceeded to go first, so Gen just
listened as the man stood, said his behavior had been unbecoming of a leader,
and then sat down again. Gen wasn't sure what to make of that, except for the
thought that it apparently took very little to shake Brandon's confidence. Kat stood up next, said her brief piece, trying to make
Brandon feel better and let Chord know what she thought of the test in fairly
mild terms, then sat down again. Gen immediately wanted to chime in and stood
up. "Yesterday sucked, Mister Chord," the androgyne
said. He nodded to Kat as he added "And 'overkill' is definitely the right
word for it."? Looking back to Chord
and Harrison, he went on. "I don't know much about a lot of things, but I
do know something about training. I went through several different kinds at the
lab. And I know that 'training' does _not_ mean putting someone in a Mars
lander with no manual and telling them they've got five minutes before impact
with the planet's surface. Which is kind of what you did to us yesterday. So it
shouldn't be any surprise that we crashed and burned." Gen paused for a moment, taking a deep breath, then went on.
"I _want_ to be here. I want to be a part of this group. And I'll do
whatever it takes for that to happen. But you need to do better too, sir.
Anyway, that's _this_ lab rat's opinion, for what it's worth." The
androgyne sat down again and listened to see what Kites and Mia might have to
add. (Kites) Kites was none too happy to have reached his turn to
speak.? As inviting as Chord tried to
make it to get them to talk about yesterday, he was still butthurt about the
way they all got scolded.? A very sick
feeling welled in his stomach, like bile that was stuck in his throat, but he
swallowed his bitterness down and stood up, causing the chair to scrape against
the floor as he straightened out.?
Bringing a fist to his face, he coughed to clear his pipes and then
looked up, letting his hand drop back down to his side.? He hoped that he was able to fake enough
confidence to not look like a coward.? In
truth, he was quite nervous and a bit shaky.?
It felt as if the whole world's attention was on him. "I...agree with everyone's comments.? The bar was set impossibly high and to expect
us to know what it is and act as if we have years of experience, is too much to
ask of people who at this point have never met before nor were familiar with
each other," he said, trying to keep the jitters out of his voice.? The last part was a bit of a lie.? As of last night, he and Gen had gotten
wicked familiar with each other, something he had hoped that'd do more and more
in the future.? But that was neither here
nor there.? He stealthily nudged Gen's
foot, his mouth threatening to curl into a smile but he held back with all his
might.? "That being said, I too want
to be here.? We all signed up for this
and I'm pretty sure that none of us want to give up just because yesterday was
a bust.? I hope that you won't give up on
us either...*cough* That's all I want to say for now."? With that, he sat back down and dug into his
food.? He wanted to reach for Gen under
the table, to grab hold of his hand, but he refrained.? Better keep his own affectations to a minimum
as he was sure that their slightest movements would be noticed by Chord's
watchful eyes. (Mia) Mia had listened to Brandon’s apology then the other’s input of yesterday not being
fair and what not.? She understood what
Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison were doing.?
It seemed like it was her turn and she stood.??“Well, Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison, I
understood for the most part what you were trying to do yesterday.? We,” she gestured around the table, “did not
seem to understand as a whole what was going on.? The first part with working through the
different obstacles, that was understood and everyone worked as they were
supposed to.? Individually at first, then
as a team.? The second part with the
robots just seemed a bit, too much at that time.? Granted, Brandon tried to tell us what to do
and informed us of what he knew about the bots.?
But then everyone tried to take things into their own hands more or
less.? I did follow what Kat suggested, but
until I became covered in wet mud, I didn’t realize the bots could read heat
signatures.??As soon as I realized it was
a losing battle and the one couldn’t find me, I decided the best course of
action was to retreat.? Then Gen decided
to send off some kind of screeching that was not conducive and more or less
almost deafened us all.??All in all, yes,
I understand that you all,” she looked at the team around the table, “felt it
was overkill and too much.? So, did I,
however, the team efforts that we had put in on the obstacle course was
suddenly gone and everyone seemed to panic.?
And that is what Mr. Chord and Ms. Harrison were doing.? They wanted to see what we would do in a
sudden attack.? And well, we failed
miserably.”?? With that she sat back
down. Tag: Brandon, Kat, Gen, Kites, Mia, Ireland, Chord and

??? Sara didn’t know how she felt about the apology she just received. It didn’t feel f genuine to her. But she would be lying if she didn’t acknowledge she was indeed curious as to what happened to him, with a nod she moved to sit a the table they were sitting at. <John Merriweather> ??? Uninvited Bonnie popped up with four cups of grog, passed them out, and took a seat next to Sara, giving her a wink. John raised his eyebrow at the serving wench, but said nothing. ??? “When I was ‘recovering’ the Lady Kir from Port Royale,” John began, sipping his grog, “at the Captain’s request by the way, I was confronted, well actually the Royal Marines were and I was in their company… Suffice to say it’s a long story, anywise, we were confronted by a magus wielding an incredible amount of power. He was, apparently, channeling an elemental. A well placed crossbow quarrel broke his concentration, and he lost control of it. I believe he survived, but the elemental slipped his binding and returned to the harbor near here.” ??? He took a sip of his grog and expounded. “Magic users leave traces of themselves in the spells they cast, much line fingerprints. I have crossed paths with that magi’s work before. The first time was on the spell that made you, Sara, a zombie before we met. The second when the Seven Fingers captured the Diablo Vega, and the demon they set in a trap nearly tore you to shreds. The third time I sensed his presence through an apprentice when the Seven Fingers was attacked by the fire elemental in Crescent Harbor.” He sighed, “and most recently, I felt his presence in the storm that nearly sank us, and sent the Seven Fingers into the repair docks here in Kingston. ??? “For some reason,” John said, “he seems to have it out for our little ship. At the very least he is aligned with the Spaniards. If I can find this entity and remove his influence then it won’t be a weapon against the Seven Fingers and His Majesty's Navy. If I can’t neutralize the threat then I’m fairly sure we will be sunk before we reach Grand Cayman and home.” ??? The thaumatologist took a deep sigh. “Anyway, that is the task as I see it, and what has delayed my return to the Captain. In the absence of higher ranking officers I have a duty to protect the ship, at the expense of my own life if necessary.” ??? “When you, Sara dear, showed up out of the blue demanding that I return to the Captain, well, I thought you had been enchanted somehow, compromised. I am truly sorry.” ??? He took another deep sigh and a swig of grog. “Anywise, I used a spell to temporarily ‘kill’ the lady Kirschvasser and myself so that we might enter the spirit realm, contact the entity, and perhaps see if you were in need of help.” He waved his hands in the air, “and here we are! Ta-Da!” ??? “ ‘E talks pretty, ‘e does,” Bonnie interjected. “A bit loquacious, but pretty. Sounds almost like the Cap'n, 'e does.” <Kir> ? ?Kir looked to John when he commented that he had crossed paths with the magic user work before. She looked to Sara when John commented that she had been a zombie. Kir had trouble picturing Sara as a zombie. Then again, zombies were not one of Kir's favorite things. As John continued on Kir took a swing of the grog. It tasted pretty good. Then she pondered, how does taste work here is she was dead. Something she would have to ask later about.? ? ?When John was done Kir looked to Sara and smiled. "I know it may not sound like it, he is sorry though. He, we were worried about you. Like he said, you were part of the reason we are here. I know I haven't known you for very long, but I like you and consider you a friend. And I always try to help my friends."? TAG: John, Sara, any

Re: Elusive Capture: Beaches. Andrew/Evone’
开云体育-?Evone' - She blushed at his compliment. “I think you are just saying that because you know I am indebted to you for all you have done for me.” Her voice tailed. He had done so much hadn’t he. He had rescued her from a man who was suppose to love her but didn’t.? Lucas didn’t love her...not at all. He was simply using her...for what money? Her father's money.? “Of course,” she said absentmindedly . Her thoughts everywhere. Was it possible that Andrew was doing this for money too? She was obviously a terrible judge of character. Maybe she was wrong about him too. “Why are you doing this.” She said turning to face him. “Why are you helping me?”? (Andrew) "Why?" Andrew said as Evone' turned to face him.? He looked down, then took her hands in his.? "Because I wronged you by my actions when I agreed to undertake your abduction. I need to make that right." Before she could say anything, the Captain of the Elusive hurried on, his fingers clasping hers as if need them to secure himself.? "I did not know you at the time, but even so, it was wrong of me.? I thought only of the money it would bring which I needed for my crew and my ship.? And for that, I am sorry and I will do everything in my power to make amends." "But those are the reasons a gentleman might give.? As a man, I have another reason."? He raised his head so that their eyes met once again.? "In the time we were together, I came to love you, Evone'.? I love you more than I think I have ever loved anyone, and I very much want to earn your good regard. And if possible, your love.? You are as precious to me as the Elusive itself," he said, bowing to kiss her hands, "and that is very precious indeed." "I am the captain of my ship," Andrew stated, straightening up again and looking at her with utter seriousness, "but you are the captain of my heart and the star I now steer by.? You have but to say the words and there we shall go." Tag - Evone' |
