"No, this isn't urgent."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 17:17
He smiled, and kissed her lightly,"Alright then"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 17:18
She kissed him back. "I think...that it would have looked a lot like you."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 17:19
He looked at her,"What makes you say that?"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 17:20
"Drow children are dark...even before birth. It was a very pale shade of gray."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 17:22
His arm tightened round her slightly,"I see..."
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 17:26
She reaches up and takes his hand.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 17:28
He interlaced his fingers with hers, just holding her there. The memory was of course something he would never understand fully... but he knew the pain of losing a child...and it was something he didn't want to happen again
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 17:31
She stays there, he hand warming in his.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 17:35
He smiled, but it wavered as a message appeared on his left eye. As he squeezed her hand slightly, he read the message.


First mission completed succesfully.
Second assignment configued
Objective: Completion of destruction of the cell
Rating: Essential completion
Report by 1200 hours tomorrow

"God-damn you Jacius, god-damn you indeed"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 17:36
"What now?"
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 17:37
"I've been given another assignment... can't tell you anything more than that"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 17:41
She nods. "When do you leave?"
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 17:42
"Taking into account time difference and travel time... about five in the morning"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 17:48
She nods and kisses him softly.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 17:48
He kissed her back, letting it linger

The one time I don't want to go... theres irony for you
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 17:53
She lets it linger as well, breaking it softly after a while.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 17:54
He sighed,"I wish I didn't have to go"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 17:55
"So do I...but you have to do your job, as much as I have to do mine."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 17:58
He nodded his agreement, then glanced at his watch,"I'd best start getting ready to leave... theres some things to sort before I go"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 17:59
She nods, and kisses him again.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:00
He kissed her back for a moment, then broke it softly,"I'll see you later, before I go to bed"

He removed his arm from round her waist, his fingertips brushing against her stomach and side as he did so, before leaving to sort his kit out. The sneaking suit he'd asked for had arrived, and he checked it before all his other kit. This mission was procure on site... so he couldn't take anything other than his field glasses with him
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 18:05
She watched him go, then went back to work.

She came in at around nine-thirty. ((That gave him about two and a half hours))
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:08
He was easily ready, just putting the last nanite checks on himself through their paces, when she came back,"What great timing you have"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 18:09
She smiles slightly. "I thought that you would be getting ready to go to sleep about now."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:10
"Should do really... I have to get up early in the morning. I'm going to assume that you don't want me to wake you up?"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 18:22
"You can."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:24
"I'll try not to, but knowing me, I will. Now, I have to get some sleep before I leave. Good night, Rhenna"

He lay down, and closed his eyes. He was asleep fairly quickly
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 18:24
"Good night." She laid down next to him, and went to sleep as well.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:28
He woke fairly early, about a quater to four. He rose quietly, taking a shower and getting dressed. By the time he was finished, it was quater-past four. He sat on the bed, stroking her hair softly, trying not to wake her. He knew she would get worried about him... he had to leave something to tell her he would be back. He kissed her forehead, and took his pendents away from his neck, putting them in her hand, along with a handwritten note:

'I'll be back for these. Miss you. All my love, James'

He stood to leave.
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 18:33
She stirred slightly, and her hand closed around the pendants and note, but she didn't wake.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:34
He smiled, teleported out, and within five minutes was in the warp heading for his latest assignement
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 18:38
She wakes up soon afterwards. He left already.

She looks down at her hand, and saw his pendants there. He never takes these off...he's going to feel so odd without them.

She read the note. "You'd better come back." She then slipped them around her neck. He'd know where to find them when he got back.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:42
Over the next few days, she would get myriad feelings that she could feel. Excitement, fear, a sense of achievement... then it went quiet for a while. It came back after about five minutes... but it was subdued

D'anthe would start recieving an audio message... something he would never do on his own. It was completley against protocal
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 18:46
"Kaw-aw."

"Play it, D'anthe...audio only."

D'anthe opened his beak so that the message would play.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:49
She would hear a voice... one that she didn't recognize... then another


??? -- So, you're finally awake

C -- Yeah. Caught a nice nap on this revolving bed of yours

??? -- This is some bed alright. I'm about to show you some of it's nicer features

C -- Such as?

??? -- Never mind that. You were carrying an optical disk weren't you, with all the test data

C -- Yeah, that's right

??? -- Is that the only one? Theres no copy? If not, that's fine... you've given us quite a show. Taken a lot for one of Barbarossa's lackeys

C -- Well, we aim to please

??? -- Well, I'm sure we can change that much...

The transmission went quiet for a moment... and then came back,"All right, he's gone for a while. Rhenna, can you hear me?"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 18:50
"Yes, I can hear you. James, what have you gotten yourself into?"
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:52
"Actually, not that much. He's over exaggerating. That, and I wouldn't be contacting you normally... it's just that one of them hit me round the head, causing the codec to start working... and it found D'anthe, for some unknown reason. S**t, wait a moment"

A few minutes later,"Sorry, they just moved me into a cell"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 18:53
"I know you wouldn't be contacting me normally...are you all right?"
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:54
"Yeah, I'm fine for the most part. I shouldn't be more than a day or so... shouldn't take long to get out of here. Missing you though"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 18:56
"I miss you, too. Take care of yourself, James. I love you."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 18:58
"I love you too Rhenna. I'll be home tomorrow, I promise"

With that, he signed off. She would get the sense of a kiss through the bond, but other than that, she didn't feel much of anything, other than about twelve hours later, sheer amazement, followed by disbelief. It was short-lived however, and as predicted, he came back the following evening. He was limping slightly as he moved through Rendelmar, but for the most part, he seemed alright
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:02
She sensed his return, and hurried to him. "What happened? Are you all right?" His pendants are still around her neck, as is the one he'd given her on their anniversary.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:03
He smiled slightly,"I'm fine, don't worry. Mission completed successfully... those suit you"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:07
She takes off his pendants and puts them back around his neck. "Let's at least get your leg checked out."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:08
He smiled as she put his pendants back,"Thanks... all right, I had to come and see you first"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:11
She nods and kisses him. "I'm glad you're safe."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:12
"I told you I'd be back, didn't I?" he said, kissing her back and teleporting them to Mithdelmar
Warhaven
23-06-2005, 19:13
OOC: Sometime today, I'm going to make a thread for Warfare's ressurection. There will be fighting, there will be journying. There will be enough for everybody. Until then, get cougar's leg fixed.
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:24
"I told you I'd be back, didn't I?" he said, kissing her back and teleporting them to Mithdelmar
A gray class mage took him and ran a diagnostic spell.

OOC: What does he find?

And Warhaven...stop bossing me around. I know what I'm doing.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:25
The mage would find that Cougar's leg was slightly burnt, by some sort of applied electrical current
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:27
The mage fixed Cougar's leg, as well as all broken bones.

"There, you should be okay for now. You can go."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:28
Cougar tested his weight on his leg before they left, then thanked the mage, before saying to Rhenna,"Told you I was alright"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:32
"Yes, you did...but am I supposed to not worry with some of the stunts you pull?"
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:33
He considered this for a moment,"Yes, I suppose so... still, I kept my promise, and not as many crazy stunts as usual on this one"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:35
"Good."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:36
He smiled, teleporting them both back to Rendelmar,"It's good to be home"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:36
"It's good to have you home."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:37
He smiled, kissing her,"Looks like I missed dinner by quite some time though"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:39
"If you're hungry, we could still eat." She kisses him back.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:41
He thought about it,"No, it's alright. I ate a small something on the way home.. unless you need to eat"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:42
She shakes her head. "I ate lunch late, so I'm not hungry."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:43
He smiled,"That's alright then... god, I missed you"

His arms snaked round her waist, and held her close
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:45
She returned his embrace, enjoying the closeness. He would be able to feel her warm to his touch.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:46
He felt the warmth grow, and smiled,"It's good to be back... I don't like having to go away"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:47
She smiles, teasingly. "Unless there's nothing here to do."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:49
"Hey, so I'm slightly fidgety... I won't be for a while now, don't worry about that"

He mused on her tone... it was one he hadn't heard in a while
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:50
She smiles.

"Good. There are worse things than having you home."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:51
He smiled, kissing her softly once more, this time running his hands over her back slightly
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:53
She kisses him back, enjoying the back rub. It's been a while since he's done that.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:56
He broke the kiss softly,"Come with me"

He took her hand, and led her to the sand room. He came here to relax, and to spend properly time with her... something that had been lacking in recent weeks
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 19:57
She went with him, and smiled softly when he saw where he'd taken her. "We haven't been here in a long time."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 19:59
"Haven't been able to, have we?"

He conjured up a place to sit or lie down, and sat there, beckoning to her to join him
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:01
She does, kissing him softly. "No...I don't suppose we have."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:02
"I've missed it though"

He kissed her back, his hands gently rubbing her back once more.
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:04
She let the kiss linger, and one of her hands gently slid down his chest.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:10
He felt the hand move down his chest and stop at his waist, and smiled whilst he kissed her. In response, he moved his hand slowly, teasingly, from the top of her spine to the base, coming to rest on her waist
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:12
He got the reflexive shivers he knew he would, and she continued to kiss him as her other hand, which had been on his shoulder, slid in to start playing with the hairs on the back of his neck.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:15
He murmered slightly, but kept kissing her. It had become progressively deeper as it continued... and he was in no mind to stop it just yet. He kept one of his hands on the cleft of her spine, whilst the other slowly rubbed the lower back muscles
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:18
She felt herself beginning to relax during the kiss...and she could feel him start relaxing, as well.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:19
He felt her relax, and smiled.

I've missed this... the closeness that only comes with marriage
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:23
She broke the kiss as softly as possible. "I've missed you, these past few days."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:24
He rested his forehead on hers, his eyes still closed,"I know... I missed you too. It's hard to be away"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:27
She nods softly, not moving her forehead away from his.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:28
He moved his hand that was rubbing to her cheek, caressing it softly as the scene around them shifted. He'd been doing it subconciously since they had walked in
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:31
She smiles softly, enjoying his caress, then opens her eyes and looks around.

"Look where you've brought us."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:32
The scene was that of the Cobrian Falls... all that time ago. He looked around,"Didn't intend to do that... but oh well"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:33
"But this is a place filled with good memories."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:34
"I didn't even realise that I was doing it, to be honest.. but you're right... this place is full of good memories... for the both of us"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:36
She smiles softly, remembering. "Hard to believe that it's been more than two years since we were there last."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:37
"Very," he said, his voice soft and loving,"But it has"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:44
She nods. "We should find the time to go back."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:45
"I'm sure we will, one day"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:47
She nods.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:48
He kissed her once more,"Until then, let's just enjoy this"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:49
She smiles softly, kissing him back. "That sounds like a very good plan."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:50
"I'm glad you agree," he said, rubbing her back muscles slowly, making small circles with the tips of his fingers, kneading the tension away
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:51
She smiles softly, leaning forward to rest her head on his shoulder. Her eyes close halfway.

"I still say you missed your calling."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:53
He smiled, moving his lips close to her ear, so that they brushed it when he whispered,"Maybe I did... making up for lost time"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:57
"You may have lost a little time...but you have a lot of time left."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 20:58
He stayed where he was,"Yes... I do, don't I... as do you"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 20:59
She kisses him softly, smiling. "True."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:02
He kissed her back,"It's so nice here... yet it's not real"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:03
"No, it's not...but it's nice to remember."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:05
He kissed her once more, looking into her eyes,"Yes... it is at times"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:07
She cuddles in closer to him.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:08
He revelled in the feeling of her being close to him... it was one that he enjoyed, and missed. He responded in kind, feeling her warm beneath his touch
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:09
"This is comfortable."

She felt like she was stating the obvious...but whatever.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:09
"Very"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:11
She sits there, comfortably, her eyes half closed.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:12
He had finished rubbing her back for the moment, and lay there, his eyes semi-closed, just letting her warm up. He felt in a mood he hadn't felt in quite a long time... and by the looks of things, it wasn't just him
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:16
She cuddles just a bit closer, feeling comfortably warm.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:17
"You want to get out of here?"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:17
"That sounds like a good idea."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:18
"I'm sure it can be arranged"

As he was speaking, their surroundings changed, and when he finished, they were laid on their bed
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:20
She smiles. "You've gotten good at that."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:20
He smiled, and kissed her,"I've been having alot of practise"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:21
She smiles and kisses him back. "I can tell."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:22
He caressed her cheek with his hand, stopping for a moment,"Did I tell you, that you look great?"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:24
"You've told me before...but that's the first time tonight." She smiles.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:25
"I thought it was time you heard it... being as it's true and all"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:32
She kisses him softly, pulling away after a moment and raising a hand to his cheek.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:33
He kissed her back, and brought his hand up to squeeze hers,and waiting a moment before kissing her deeply once more
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:35
And the kiss continues...

When he woke the next morning, he'd find that she was still asleep beside him.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:38
He woke up to find her laying her head on his chest. He smiled, not being able to remember any time in the previous weeks that she had done this. The night before had been a great healing expierence for both of them... it was looking up for both of them. He stayed where he was, enjoying the tactile contrast of her cool skin against his relatively warm skin. He stepped down her bare back with his fingers, feeling each part seperately.
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:43
The first thing she was aware of was his fingers travelling down her back. She remained as she was for a few moments, before opening her eyes.

"Good morning."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:44
He looked down at her,"Good morning. You look like you slept well"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:45
"I did. You look like you slept fairly well, too."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:47
He smiled,"But of course I did. How could I not?"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:48
She smiles softly. "What time is it?"
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:49
"About half-past six in the morning... we slept solid for a good six hours"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 21:51
"And no need to get up for another hour."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 21:53
He leaned down to kiss her, making it soft and sweet
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:05
She kissed him back, then smiled and looked up at him. "I love you."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:07
It was unexpected... that's what had made it special. He smiled,"I know you do... and I love you"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:09
She sits up and cals over clothes for the both of them. "Let's get up."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:10
He got dressed, and stood up, waiting for her
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:11
She dresses as well, and stands.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:12
"Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't we have an hour until we had to get up?"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:13
"We did...but why not?"
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:15
He thought about this for a moment,"True enough I suppose... still, it's not all bad. We had a great time"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:17
She smiles softly. "It was a good time."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:18
At least you were subtle about it... until later that is... god, I had to leave to find somewhere to sleep

Rosie made herself known to the pair of them, rubbing against his legs, then against hers
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:21
Rhenna looks down. "Good morning to you, too."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:22
Rosie just purred. Cougar bent down, and she ran over to him, rubbing herself against his outstretched hand. He smiled,"I've missed you as well... not as much as her though"

D'anthe came and perched on Rhenna's shoulder. There was something of a rivalry between him and the cat, but it mattered little...Cougar had his pet, and Rhenna had him. And he was pretty sure that he was more useful to Rhenna then that furry mass ever was to Cougar.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:27
"Go on, run along," said Cougar. Rosie complied. She'd become a hit with the smaller children in Rendelmar.

He straightened, and moved closer to Rhenna
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:30
She'd find Shan first, laying in the middle of a training room, tossing his ball up and catching it. He looked pretty bored.
**************************************************************
Rhenna tilted her head and D'anthe, and he left the room. She then embraced her husband, comfortable.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:32
As the ball went up, a little ball of fur hit it, and started trying to play with it

**********************************************************

He embraced her back,"I think those two don't get on"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:35
Shan turns over onto his stomach, as the cat had the ball. "Good morning, cat. What are you doing up so early?" He cast a spell on the ball to cause it to run from/chase Rosie.
**************************************************************
"No...but they share this space...so they have to learn."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:36
If you had any idea what was happening last night, you wouldn't have slept much either

She chased the ball for a moment, then it turned and started to chase her. She dodged it,Ok, that is wierd

**********************************************************

He smiled,"Oh well... so long as he doesn't go for her"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:38
Shan laughed at her expression. "Yeah, it might be kinda weird. But I don't have anything better to do, do you?" He holds out his hand to her.
***************************************************************
"He probably won't."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:40
With them two all over each other as they are these sort of mornings... god no

She goes over to him, and rubbed herself against the palm of his hand

**********************************************************
"Well... we can only hope, can't we"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:42
He stroked her gently for a few moments, calling the ball back to his hand.

***************************************************************
"He knows better."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:44
As the ball came back, Rosie noticed his hair. She flicked it with a paw experimentally,Cougar lets me do this when he has long hair... let's see

**********************************************************

He smiled, and kissed her softly,"I'm sure they'll be fine... she's a hit with the children though"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:46
Shan laughs. "What are you up to, cat?"
****************************************************************
Rhenna smiles. "I've noticed. That cat gets so much attention, it'll be hard for her to leave."
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:48
I'm playing Beethoven's entire 2nd Symphony on my own... what does it look like I'm doing you dumbass!

She continued to flick his hair

**********************************************************

"Why are we bringing up the topic of leaving?"
Kaymiril
23-06-2005, 22:50
Shan leans back, supporting himself on his elbows. "Okay, you can play with my hair if you like."
**************************************************************
She shakes her head.
Snake Eaters
23-06-2005, 22:52
Good... you've accepted your fate. Now stay still

She continued to flick his hair, taking enjoyment from it

**************************************************************

He raised an eyebrow, and rubbed her back whilst kissing her again,"Sometimes, you worry me for no apparent reason"

Good... you've accepted your fate. Now stay still

She continued to flick his hair, taking enjoyment from it

**************************************************************

He raised an eyebrow, and rubbed her back whilst kissing her again,"Sometimes, you worry me for no apparent reason"
"I hope you realize that I'm going to have to get up eventually and go to class."
***************************************************************
She kissed him back. "Then don't worry."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 06:19
Meh, it doesn't bother me... now hold still, or I'll get angry

************************************************************

He laughed, the first real one in days,"Alright, I'll do my best"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 06:26
Shan stays there a few minutes, genuinely amused by the cat's antics, then he stands up. "Come on, cat. Let's go get some breakfast, and then I have to get to class."
**************************************************************
She smiles. "Hopefully, it'll be good enough."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 06:28
Breakfast good. Class bad

Nevertheless, she stopped batting his hair, and wandered over to the door
**************************************************************

He smiled, and held her a little closer,"We can only hope"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 06:30
Shan ran his fingers through his hair, then picked up the cat and started walking to the cafeteria.
**************************************************************
She rests her head on his shoulder, still comfortable.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 06:34
Did I say you could pick me up... how rude. Still, saves me using my legs... you just have to do extra work

*************************************************************

He brought his hand up, and stroked the back of her head softly, comfortable where he was
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 06:36
"Right...so...what do cats eat for breakfast?"
*****************************************************************
Rhenna laughs. "Maybe getting up wasn't the best idea."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 06:39
The list is long and distinguished... fish is good though... Wait, you can't understand me... ummm

She nosed at some fish that was nearby after he set her down

**************************************************************

He smiled, and kissed the top of her head,"Maybe it wasn't... bit late to do anything about it though"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 06:41
Shan got a small plate "whose idea was it to have fish for breakfast, anyway?" and spooned out some fish for Rosie, then grabbed an apple-esque fruit for himself. He set the plate down on the floor next to him. "There you go."
**************************************************************
"True. Well..." she smiles. "Standing here like this is nice, too."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 06:42
Oh... tuna... brilliant

She ate hungrily. Cats have never heard of table manners, so it didn't matter

***************************************************************

"Of course it is... would we be doing it if it weren't?"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 06:45
"Looks like you like arit. Never really cared for it myself, but..."
**************************************************************
"Probably not."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 06:47
I'm a cat, what do you expect... stupid boy

**************************************************************

He kissed her softly,"There you have it then"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 06:48
"Don't look at me like that, you think we have any other cats around here?"
**************************************************************
She kissed him back and smiled. "I suppose so."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 06:50
Whats your point? I've seen the size of that library... can't you look something on cats up in there?

***************************************************************


He smiled as well,"Looks like we have to get going, much as we don't want to"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 06:52
"I get the feeling that if I could understand you, I'd probably be very hurt by some of the things you say. Then again...so would everyone, so I guess I'm not completely hated."
**************************************************************
"Soon enough" *doesn't move."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 06:55
Oh yes... I'm very cynical, very hard hitting with me thoughts. And the best thing about it is; I'm mute!*imagines ruling the world, then comes down from feelings of grandeur*Alright... now that was wierd

***************************************************************

He didn't want to move a particulary large amount anyway, so he also just stayed where he was
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 06:57
"Well, gotta go." He pats her on the side. "See ya later, cat." He stands, throwing away what's left of his breakfast, then leaves.
****************************************************************
"How late are we?"
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 06:59
Strange child... but with a certain charm... I see why he's popular

She decided to just wander around for the rest of the day... and find somewhere to sleep

***************************************************************

"About five minutes, possibly a little bit less"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 07:00
"All right...let's go." Relunctantly, she started to pull herself away.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 07:03
He pulled her back, for just a moment, kissing her deeply once more before she left.
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 14:02
She kisses him back. "You're really making this difficult." She kisses him again, steps back, and leaves.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 16:57
"I'm allowed to make things difficult occasionally," he called after her, watching her leave. He smiled, and grabbed his shirt before leaving himself
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:20
Shan greets Cougar in class. "I found your cat...or rather, she found me."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:22
"Let me guess... she attacked the ball, then played with your hair?"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:22
"How did you know?"
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:23
"Because that what she did with me when I had long hair and was juggling... it was funny as hell... but I got the feeling my cat has some very strange thoughts"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:25
"I got that feeling too. That, and she doesn't really like anyone. She seems to be one of those types that'll make a snide comment at anyone for any reason."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:26
"Hey, she wouldn't go near you if she didn't like you. Trust me, I've watched her do it."
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:27
"Eh...I get the feeling there are people she dislikes, and people she tolerates."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:28
"We'll never know, considering she's a cat and cannot talk to us"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:30
"True enough...for now..."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:35
"No spells on my cat, understand me?"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:37
"I won't. I don't really want to hear what it is she has to say."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:38
"Most likely a prudent choice"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:39
And at that point, class begins, so there's no need for further conversation.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:41
He had adjusted to the new level with some ease... but there was still some things he was unsure on. He thought the lesson went well, all things considered
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:42
Vedt was back, in any event.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:45
Cougar was actually thankful that Vedt had returned... though he was as harsh as Renor, Cougar felt he learnt more in a classroom situation from Vedt... Renor was someone who he learnt from in real life
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:47
And eventually class is dismissed (b/c I really don't have a lesson plan LOL)
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:51
(Meh, who does?)

Cougar left the class. He was still 'high' from earlier, so it seemed as if nothing could really bring him down. He spent the afternoon training as usual, culminating in his sustaining of a lovely bruise on his thigh. He returned to the room at about six, having eaten quietly alone
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:55
Rhenna gets back at about nine thirty, and sits down next to him. "So, long day?"
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:55
"Not as long as yours by the look of it," he said, kissing her softly
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 17:56
She kisses him back. "It wasn't that bad."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 17:59
He smiled. He'd just finished applying some ointment to his bruises... despite his power to heal, he preferred to do things as he remembered them... simply because it worked,"Anything exciting occur?"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:01
"Shan and Ashra were bickering over why she'd hit him. Apparently they contacted Tari and Shan ran his mouth off as he's prone to. It seems Tari's made a friend already, though."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:05
"Oh? She moves fast, she's only been there what... a day or so?"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:09
"About. A human boy...they didn't tell me his name, though. What they did tell me was that he was a Snake Eater."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:10
"I don't mingle with the assasins much... don't know who it could be. Still, sounds good to me"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:14
Rhenna laughs. "In all likelihood, she decided she needed a friend, or that he needed a friend, so she's his friend whether he wants one or not."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:15
"I'm sure I could find out who the guy is... still, I don't think it matters"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:16
"Probably not. Tari's good at spotting who would and would not be a good person to hang around."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:17
He smiled,"Well... if he's an assassin, then he could use a friend"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:18
"No doubts."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:19
"Sounds like me when I first came to the Tower"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:20
"Renor probably knows more about that than I do. but the assassin's is a very lonely life...by necessity, if nothing else."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:23
"I can imagine... it was the reason I chose not to become an assassin in my training"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:24
"You wouldn't have liked it. You deal too much with your past already to be suited to be an assassin."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:26
"I can do the job... had to just recently"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:27
"But it isn't the life for you. Day in, day out..." she shakes her head. "I can't see you doing it."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:28
"No... neither can I when it comes down to it"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:29
She kisses him softly. "Then don't worry about it."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:30
"I won't worry then," he said, kissing her back
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:32
She lets the kiss linger a moment, before resting her head on his shoulder and halfway closing her eyes.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:33
He slipped an arm around her, and just sat there, comfortable for the moment,"Tell me... you are an assassin, no?"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:34
"Only when I need to be."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:35
He sensed that the topic shouldn't be pushed any further, and instead thought back to his last mission... that had been a nasty one indeed. His eyes fell closed, but he wasn't asleep
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:37
She knew this, but let him sit. It wasn't an uncomfortable silence. She just took his hand and held it.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:39
He felt her hand take his, and smiled slightly. He was glad for the slight comfort... he hadn't been through anything like she had, but nevertheless, he still would rather forget the final scene. It flashed on his eyelids, the leader falling to the floor, finally defeated, but not directly by Cougar
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:49
He wouldn't talk about it, she knew, so she wouldn't ask.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:50
After a while he opened his eyes, and looked around,"Sorry, phased out for a moment there"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:51
"It's okay." She kisses his cheek. "We're all prone to that, sometimes."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:53
He smiled as she kissed his cheek,"True enough, I suppose"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 18:55
"What time is it getting to be?"
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 18:56
"About ten in the evening, why?"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 19:01
"I have a class very early tomorrow morning...I'm going to have to be up at four-thirty."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 19:01
"Why so early?"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 19:03
"I'm taking my class outside the city for the morning. We have to be where we're going by no later than five-thirty."
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 19:05
He smiled,"Ah, I see. Well, I guess you'd best be getting some rest"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 19:06
She nods.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 19:09
He lay down next to her,"I may as well go to bed as well then*kisses her*Good night, Rhenna"
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 19:10
She kissed him back. "Good night." She closes her eyes.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 19:11
He closed his eyes, and put an arm over her. He sank quickly into sleep for the night
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 19:13
She drifted off as well, waking when D'anthe nudged her. She slid out from under his arm as gently as she could, to not wake him up, then changed and left, kissing him gently on the cheek.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 19:16
He stirred slightly, murmering something indecipherable as she left, before falling back to sleep and not waking until gone seven. He rose and washed quickly, before getting on with buisness as usual.
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 19:19
Vedt's class isn't until afternoon, so he has the morning free.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 19:21
He spent the morning honing his martial arts even further, focusing more on how they helped him control his own energy rather than his ablity to use them to harm. Running through the katas from karate helped him focus, letting him work that much harder during the afternoon
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 19:24
Rhenna's class from the morning gets back at around noon, and then Vedt's class is at one. Most of the age group looks fairly exhausted, but push on through the class, anyway.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 19:27
He saw it as a testament to them that they pushed through the class. In his relatively calm state, he performed well through out the class, prompting him to decide to do the katas before breakfast from now on

He returned to the room when the class finished
Kaymiril
24-06-2005, 19:28
Rhenna's laying on the bed, kind of curled up...asleep.
Snake Eaters
24-06-2005, 19:29
He saw her when he walked in, and stopped and smiled. Whatever the class had done, so had she... and it had knackered her out. He crept slowly around to his side of the bed, sitting down, and looking at her
