Idran1701 (7:16:07 PM): Oh, hey Shaun.
CGNakibe (7:16:17 PM): Wassup?
Idran1701 (7:16:31 PM): Not much. You?
CGNakibe (7:17:07 PM): Not much here either.
Idran1701 (7:17:29 PM): *nod*
Idran1701 (7:17:47 PM): So, up for that subsession in an hour or two? Or you have other plans
tonight?
CGNakibe (7:18:03 PM): Nope, no other plans at the moment.
Idran1701 (7:18:18 PM): *nod*
Idran1701 (7:18:56 PM): Might go a bit later than a normal session, though. I had planned for
two before Saturday, until I remembered that you're not really free nights other than Tuesday,
heh.
Idran1701 (7:19:13 PM): So I was going to try to fit both session's worth of stuff tonight, if
possible.
CGNakibe (7:22:49 PM): Hm.
Idran1701 (7:23:03 PM): Won't pull you later than you're willing to stay up for, of course.
Idran1701 (7:23:53 PM): And I can still divide it up if you think there'll be a day this week
closer to the afternoon you'll be available for? Doesn't have to be a late night session.
CGNakibe (7:24:19 PM): Just so happens that Thursday I'll be available around 3.
Idran1701 (7:24:34 PM): Central, right?
CGNakibe (7:24:40 PM): Yep.
CGNakibe (7:24:53 PM): 3 PM. Professor for two of my classes is going out of town.
Idran1701 (7:25:10 PM): That might work. Supposed to be heading off to visit family
tomorrow, but depending on weather conditions it might get pushed over to another day this
week instead.
Idran1701 (7:25:43 PM): If so, I'd probably be back by 4 my time or so.
Idran1701 (7:25:56 PM): So around 6 for you, if I'd be going for that on Thursday.
CGNakibe (7:26:07 PM): Cool.
Idran1701 (7:26:18 PM): That'd still work for you?
CGNakibe (7:26:43 PM): It should.
Idran1701 (7:28:27 PM): *nod* All right. Either way, then, we'll try for a second on Thursday.
The two I had in mind were another CI with Karin tonight, possibly leading into the start of the
focusing on Arian's other interests, and then heavier with that in the second session. Specifics
for that would be up to you/Arian, but I was considering him doing some work at a local
stable for that. Your thoughts?
CGNakibe (7:29:19 PM): Probably would help him flresh out his experience outside of what
he's already done. Hm. Maybe its about time for him to take a serious stab at magical
research too.
Idran1701 (7:29:42 PM): *nod* We can start in with that too, then.
Idran1701 (7:30:17 PM): Something you want to spend a session on, talking with a magic
academy or something, or were you thinking something mostly self-directed that could be
mostly done OOCly?
CGNakibe (7:31:27 PM): I was thinking something more self-directed, although I suppose a
magic academy might work. Give me a little bit to think about it.
Idran1701 (7:31:33 PM): *nod* Sure.
CGNakibe is idle at 8:37:35 PM.
CGNakibe is no longer idle at 8:39:03 PM.
Idran1701 (9:10:26 PM): Hey. If nothing's come up, I'm ready to start that session if you are.
Oh, though I'm reminded of a minor point that I forgot to mention before. Even though they left the Wastes, their clothing's still faded to greys.
CGNakibe (9:10:50 PM): Nothing's come up yet, no.
Idran1701 (9:11:13 PM): *nod* Want to take care of it in chat, or you rather stick to IM?
CGNakibe (9:11:39 PM): Either is fine for me at the moment.
Idran1701 (9:12:05 PM): *nod* I'd rather stick to IM myself; just easier that way.
Idran1701 (9:15:30 PM): Set up'd be that after they got back, Karin'd have headed off back to her room at the Sensate headquarters, asking Arian to
come help her with something once he's finished getting his stuff together himself. It'd be around late afternoon, probably the equivalent of around 3-4.
CGNakibe (9:20:10 PM): (Mew. Whenever you are ready.)
Idran1701 (9:21:39 PM): (Any sorts of special things Arian'd have done before re-leaving the inn?)
CGNakibe (9:22:14 PM): (He wouldn't've thought of anything other than, you know, trying to look clean and awesome.)
Idran1701 (9:22:40 PM): (I don't think he's got enough money left for the latter, unfortunately. :D)
CGNakibe (9:22:52 PM): (Then no, nothing too special)
Idran1701 (9:23:28 PM): *Arian departs the Dragon's Vault, making his way through the slums of the Hive and thankfully entering the safer wards of the
city on the way to the meeting with Karinska*
CGNakibe (9:24:53 PM): IM: You know, maybe we should get a safer inn.
Idran1701 (9:24:58 PM): *after a somewhat short walk, just around a half-hour or so, he finds the Sensate's hall, just as impressive as it had been on his
previous visit*
CGNakibe (9:25:01 PM): IM: Eh. Too late to wonder about that now...
Idran1701 (9:25:08 PM): *A quick check at the front area, and he's directed to the faction quarters', and Karin's room specifically*
CGNakibe (9:26:55 PM): IM: ... Dammit... I knew I should've saved something for this trip... hopefully I won't insult her or anything... do I look okay?
Damn me, but I still feel like a fool. >.<;;
CGNakibe (9:27:09 PM): *knocks on Karin's door... after several moments of nervousness*
Idran1701 (9:27:35 PM): (You know, just to clarify a little, that _was_ just me poking a bit of fun at Arian trying to look "awesome".)
CGNakibe (9:27:44 PM): (I know, I know. >:P)
CGNakibe (9:28:01 PM): (He's nervous enough to still worry anyway.)
Idran1701 (9:28:04 PM): (Heh.)
Idran1701 (9:28:15 PM): ...Who is it?
CGNakibe (9:28:42 PM): Um... Its Arian.
CGNakibe (9:29:55 PM): You... you asked me to come by earlier?
Idran1701 (9:30:39 PM): Oh, Arian! Come on in.
CGNakibe (9:31:45 PM): *opens the door...*
Idran1701 (9:34:16 PM): *And inside! The room's...actually a lot larger than the outside appearance might suggest. It looks a bit like one of the nicer
suites from an inn back home. The door opens into a small foyer, beyond which seems to be the rest of the room; a combined sitting area and
kitchenette. Another door at the far end likely leads into the bedroom. It's quite well decorated, with various pieces of artwork and memorabilia
scattered about. The strangest part of the room, though, is the bookshelf; rather than tomes, it seems to be filled with various gemstones.*
Idran1701 (9:35:11 PM): *Sitting at the side of the room, near a window looking out on the city, is Karinska. She's changed into a light-blue,
semi-backless outfit by now; looks to be a cross between a dress and a robe, probably the better to allow for her wings.*
Idran1701 (9:35:58 PM): *Speaking of which, she's currently bent around, grabbing ahold of one; looks a bit uncomfortable, and she grimaces a bit - more
out of frustration than any sort of pain, though, it seems.*
CGNakibe (9:36:08 PM): *... seems to be taking this in for the moment* IM: its .... actually a little larger than my ro.... o.o
Idran1701 (9:36:30 PM): *smiles at him* Glad to see you.
CGNakibe (9:37:03 PM): Th... that dress looks lovely on you.
Idran1701 (9:37:43 PM): ...Oh...*chuckles* thanks. After that trip...well, I was wanting something a bit more colorful.
CGNakibe (9:38:17 PM): *nods* Its as if my shirt was somehow left out in the sun far too long. Doesn't seem to be going away, either.
Idran1701 (9:39:49 PM): Neither do my robes...*grunting a bit as she struggles with something on her wing*...not too disappointed, though. I've been
meaning to get some more clothing that can better fit these. Those were starting to get a...*grunt*...a little tattered around the cuts.
Idran1701 (9:40:11 PM): ...*looks over to him again* Well, come on in and have a seat.
CGNakibe (9:40:43 PM): Oh, yes, certainly. *wanders over to a seat*
Idran1701 (9:41:07 PM): ...I hope you don't mind...I was hoping to get your help with something.
CGNakibe (9:41:23 PM): Of course. Anything you need. o.o
Idran1701 (9:42:13 PM): ...*blushes a bit, chuckling* Do you think you could clean my wings for me? It's...well, it's a lot more of a hassle than I thought.
CGNakibe (9:42:45 PM): I'm... um... that is... >.>;;;; What have you been doing to clean them?
Idran1701 (9:44:44 PM): *she shows what she's been working with on her wing; just a simple wet cloth, it looks like, and now that he's closer he can see a
metal basin of water setting on a table next to her* The trouble's reaching along them. It's like...it's like trying to reach an itch in the middle of your back,
only your back's 5 times as wide. *chuckles a bit abashedly*
Idran1701 (9:45:03 PM): I can manage it, it's just...a lot harder than I'd like.
CGNakibe (9:45:20 PM): Ah. Um... yes... I see. o.o;;
CGNakibe (9:46:04 PM): *picks up washcloth and starts slowly, carefully washing...* I... haven't done anything like this too often.. Um.. So please... tell
me if I'm... you know.. .*mumbles*doingagoodjob. >.>;;
Idran1701 (9:47:21 PM): *she turns back forward, smiling to him as she does* I'm sure you'll do fine. I know it's kind of personal...if you're uncomfortable
doing it, I'd understand...
CGNakibe (9:47:45 PM): No no, that's alright.. I'd love to help. ^^;;
CGNakibe (9:48:24 PM): *Arian slowly begins trying to clean a wing, while not staring too hard at it... or her.*
CGNakibe (9:48:36 PM): o.o;; *....and failing at these badly*
Idran1701 (9:49:53 PM): *nods, noticing neither, she can't exactly see him too well like this, after all* All you have to do is just...wipe carefully along the
feathers, from the base to the tip. Don't worry if some come loose...that's normal.
CGNakibe (9:50:08 PM): A... alright...
Idran1701 (9:50:27 PM): ...*chuckling a bit nervously* I checked a sensory stone from an avariel after I got back to Sigil, to help teach me about...proper
wing care and all.
CGNakibe (9:50:33 PM): (Vaguely confident with elder gods and attacking demons)
CGNakibe (9:50:39 PM): (Totally fails when near girls.)
Idran1701 (9:50:47 PM): (He's not Japan-inspired at all! :D)
CGNakibe (9:50:49 PM): (Lilium: What? I don't count?)
CGNakibe (9:50:54 PM): (Arian: No. e.e)
CGNakibe (9:51:09 PM): Ah. *nods* That makes sense...
Idran1701 (9:52:10 PM): *she keeps them as still as she can, though they do twitch a bit as he wipes; she's holding them as open as they go, and it's
actually a fairly impressive wingspan, at least 12 feet from tip to tip*
Idran1701 (9:52:26 PM): I love having them, but...well, it's the little things that I never really thought about.
Idran1701 (9:52:31 PM): Things like this.
CGNakibe (9:52:52 PM): *nods again* These are the things they wouldn't tell you about, I suppose.
Idran1701 (9:53:29 PM): Buying clothing's been especially rough. I've just about got to replace half my wardrobe...*chuckles*
CGNakibe (9:54:12 PM): ... you know... even if Circe wasn't so adamantly opposed to us... I'd rather not go to the Wastes again.
Idran1701 (9:54:50 PM): ...Nor would I, really. It's so...dreary there. And...well, depressing.
CGNakibe (9:55:37 PM): Even when... that town... tried to get ahold of us. When it was nice and comfortable...
CGNakibe (9:55:47 PM): That PLACE had me up tight.
Idran1701 (9:57:57 PM): *nods, and turns her head back to get at least something of a glimpse of him* ...I don't think I ever thanked you. For...well, for
standing up for me against Circe...or staying by me early on when I started to...succumb...staying near for the whole trip, really.
CGNakibe (9:59:56 PM): She shouldn't've said that about you. e.e If she wasn't.... well... Hecate's daughter...
Idran1701 (10:01:43 PM): No, I know. And thinking I'm your consort...*snerks, smirking from what he can see of her face* If anything, you're mine. I'm
the one with the experience, after all.
CGNakibe (10:02:20 PM): Ah.. Um... Well... *chuckles nurvously* That's true enough...
Idran1701 (10:04:23 PM): *laughs, though she's starting to blush a bit again herself* I still have trouble believing that, you know. Someone like you and all.
CGNakibe (10:05:13 PM): Like me? Um... What do you mean? >.>;; *washwash*
Idran1701 (10:07:36 PM): Well...maybe not personality, from what you've said, but...well...appearance, and all. You don't look half-bad, you know.
CGNakibe (10:08:05 PM): *chuckles* That's good to know, I must say.
Idran1701 (10:08:44 PM): ...I can't believe I'm blushing saying that. *chuckles back* I blame you for this, you know.
CGNakibe (10:08:56 PM): What? This nervousness is MY fault now?
Idran1701 (10:09:12 PM): I think it's contagious.
CGNakibe (10:09:18 PM): So I see.
Idran1701 (10:10:02 PM): *laughs, relaxing a bit* So...do you have any plans now that we're off that plane again?
CGNakibe (10:10:47 PM): That's a good question. Perhaps... I should look more into magic, perhaps ENJOY a few things now that I'm away from there.
CGNakibe (10:11:17 PM): I might even have to see what is available for mercenary work. I believe after that experience we deserve a GOOD dinner.
Idran1701 (10:13:05 PM): Well, I know a place you might like. A restaurant in the Market Ward, Chirpers. A restaurant/menagerie-type place...one of
my favorite spots in the city, really.
CGNakibe (10:14:34 PM): *nods* It sounds excellent, you know. Perhaps in a week or so we can go.... *thinks*
Idran1701 (10:15:16 PM): A week? Sounds like you're already making plans.
CGNakibe (10:15:39 PM): Perhaps... but I suppose it WOULD be wise to see their menu first.... 9.9;;;
Idran1701 (10:16:11 PM): *puts on a false frown* Oh, you don't trust me now?
CGNakibe (10:16:59 PM): <.<;;; Of course I trust you, Karinska.
CGNakibe (10:17:23 PM): Just need to see if their prices are going to demolish what little gold I still have, is all.
Idran1701 (10:19:31 PM): *chuckles* If it comes down to it, I can pay for the both of us.
Idran1701 (10:19:42 PM): Besides, don't you still have most of that payment from the caravan?
CGNakibe (10:19:58 PM): Ah... yes, I do believe so. That might be enough...
Idran1701 (10:20:54 PM): They are a fairly spendy place, but it's worth it for the experience, I think.
Idran1701 (10:21:01 PM): *grins* They even have their own theater.
CGNakibe (10:21:28 PM): Theater? That's interesting. Hopefully a good one. I haven't seen any good ones in a very long time.
Idran1701 (10:23:09 PM): Oh, it was wonderful last time I went. All sorts of performances...musicians, skits, jesters...
Idran1701 (10:24:36 PM): And the stores alongside the restaurant...the sweet shop there has the most wonderful honey fudge.
CGNakibe (10:24:56 PM): Mmmmm... That sounds delicious... Oh. I think this wing is done. o.o
Idran1701 (10:25:51 PM): Oh? *she shifts carefully, watchful not to hit anything, and lets him reach the other wing*
CGNakibe (10:26:34 PM): *begins the cleaning again, except on the other wing*
Idran1701 (10:27:32 PM): *sighs* ...You know, I actually kept that tunic. Just so I could have something fancy to wear that would fit around these.
Idran1701 (10:28:30 PM): I thought it might be easier shopping for these, but...well, I don't really want to try going into the shops that cater to
celestials...where the wings are from and all.
Idran1701 (10:29:19 PM): I can't imagine that going well.
CGNakibe (10:29:46 PM): (BRB. Foooood.)
Idran1701 (10:29:56 PM): (*nod* Kay. :O)
CGNakibe (10:39:08 PM): (Back)
CGNakibe (10:39:17 PM): Yes, that might easily be a disaster.... Hm.
Idran1701 (10:39:34 PM): And the shops that cater more for the fiends...
Idran1701 (10:39:51 PM): *chuckles* Maybe you'd appreciate it, but I couldn't find anything I'd want to wear outside this room.
CGNakibe (10:40:40 PM): *nods* I see what you mean. Although this means you'd probably need to find a good tailor....
Idran1701 (10:42:29 PM): *snerks, turning her head back, grinning* You didn't stammer at the thought of me shopping at a store for succubi? Arian, I
think you might actually be getting used to us.
CGNakibe (10:42:58 PM): Well, I... err.... eheh.. Perhaps I am. Just a bit.
Idran1701 (10:44:30 PM): *continuing to grin* But yes, I think you're right. It'll be a bit more expensive, but I don't see anything else I could do.
CGNakibe (10:45:26 PM): *nods* With luck you'll find a good tailor....
CGNakibe (10:46:55 PM): IM: Although you do look good in everything I've seen you in...
CGNakibe (10:47:03 PM): *suddenly blushes, ohno!*
CGNakibe (10:47:10 PM): *thank goodness she can't quite see that*
Idran1701 (10:48:37 PM): And if nothing else, I suppose I could at least get some sleepware from that shop. *laughs*
CGNakibe (10:48:58 PM): *double blush*
CGNakibe (10:49:11 PM): (Karin: CALL ME QUEEN! OHOHOHOHO)
CGNakibe (10:49:19 PM): (Lilium: Dammit. I'm missing all the FUN stuff. ._. )
Idran1701 (10:49:32 PM): (Heh.)
Idran1701 (10:51:54 PM): That's another of those things I never thought about, you know; sleeping. I actually fell off my bed twice after I got back, trying
to roll over in my sleep. *laughs embarassedly*
And I'm still not used to sleeping face down.
CGNakibe (10:52:27 PM): Ah. I was wondering about that. *chuckles* I imagine that sleeping on the wings is a definite pain....
Idran1701 (10:53:24 PM): *nods* It's either that, or sleep on my side on the edge of the bed...thus the falling. *another slight laugh*
CGNakibe (10:54:12 PM): This makes me wonder how the celestials do it, though. Do they sleep standing up? Do they have some special sort of bed?
Idran1701 (10:54:34 PM): Do they sleep?
CGNakibe (10:55:44 PM): *chuckles* Well, that might be the first place to start there, yes. But I assume that they do.
Idran1701 (10:56:20 PM): *laughs* Unfortunately, that avariel in the stone didn't show anything like that herself.
Idran1701 (10:57:46 PM): Something I just have to get used to, I suppose.
CGNakibe (10:58:16 PM): Ah. There. I.. think this one is done too. o.o *checks, just to be sure*
Idran1701 (10:58:32 PM): *it seems to be, yes!*
Idran1701 (11:00:54 PM): *nods* I think I can get the front of them...unless you'd like to?
CGNakibe (11:01:36 PM): Well, umm... *since when has Arian been as red as this text? OH.*
Idran1701 (11:02:45 PM): *pulling her wings in, she turns, giving a slight chuckle* Well...like I said, if you wouldn't be comfortable doing it...I wouldn't
mind, though.
CGNakibe (11:04:01 PM): Well, Um... err... Perhaps... perhaps some other time. ^^;;;
Idran1701 (11:05:07 PM): *chuckles* All right.
...I wouldn't mind if this were a regular thing, though. Maybe...once a day? I could use the help keeping them clean, after all.
CGNakibe (11:05:47 PM): Sure... sure.. ^^;; I'd love to help.
Idran1701 (11:08:18 PM): *She chuckles a bit more, giving him a quick hug and a peck on the cheek out of impulse. Turning more than a bit red herself,
she snickers nervously.* You're a nice person, Arian.
CGNakibe (11:09:02 PM): Th... thank you, Karinska. o.o;;
Idran1701 (11:11:24 PM): Well...it's true. *snickering a bit more, she finds one of the feathers that fell loose during the cleaning, grinning as she tucks it
behind his ear* I'm glad I met you after the idiot I was seeing a few months ago, too.
CGNakibe (11:12:04 PM): I take it that things didn't go so well.
Idran1701 (11:14:17 PM): Well...it could have been better. *she leans back in her chair, still grinning, but a little less so now* It started out all right, but by
the end...*chuckles* well, the happiest time I'd had in a month or two was the night I'd broke it off with him.
CGNakibe (11:15:10 PM): That's a very strong sign of things gone by, I suppose. *chuckles slightly*
Idran1701 (11:17:16 PM): Well, he was more of a hedonist than a true Sensate anyway. He was sent over to Elysium maybe two months after I'd stopped
seeing him. The folks that get too caught up in reliving the same experiences over and over, they get sent to our building there, where they can spend as
much time as they like doing that.
*sighs* Sad for them, really.
CGNakibe (11:19:27 PM): Hm. *frowns* How often does that happen? And... well, nevermind, I remember why Elysium now. Sort of.
Idran1701 (11:20:04 PM): Oh, they do an appraisal of all members once every few months. Making sure they're holding onto the spirit of the faction.
Idran1701 (11:23:53 PM): If you don't focus enough on expanding yourself, then they send you over to let you experience your personal addictions as much
as you'd like. Either you get tired of them eventually, or...*shrugs* you don't.
CGNakibe (11:24:28 PM): *nods* That makes a lot of sense, I think.
Idran1701 (11:25:22 PM): Yeah. And...I'll admit, I don't mind not seeing him around the hall.
Idran1701 (11:25:49 PM): ...*blushes, frowning* I actually heard a rumor from a friend on the staff...
CGNakibe (11:26:24 PM): Rumor about what?
Idran1701 (11:29:28 PM): ...Well...*doing both even more deeply now*...she heard from one of the sensory stone clerks...he actually tried to submit a
sensory impression of...well, of the two of us...you know.
It was rejected for privacy and nonuniqueness, she said, but...*shakes her head angrily* gods.
CGNakibe (11:31:02 PM): ... *frowns deeply himself* Just for revenge, I assume? Or...*just stops right there, the frown deepening*
Idran1701 (11:32:00 PM): I'd assume so. It's not anything I ever bothered to confront him with...just a rumor, after all. But it's not one I'd have trouble
believing, coming from him.
Idran1701 (11:34:16 PM): Sometimes I can't believe I bothered five months with that idiot.
...*looking back to Arian, she smiles at him* You're certainly a breath of fresh air after him, though.
CGNakibe (11:34:54 PM): Why, thank you. I'm glad that you're willing to put up with me, at least. ^^;;
Idran1701 (11:35:45 PM): *chuckles, taking his hand* Ah, you're not that hard to put up with.
Idran1701 (11:37:21 PM): ...And thanks again for helping me today. I've been nearly wrenching my back out trying to do it on my own since I got them.
CGNakibe (11:37:48 PM): Its no problem at all, really.
Idran1701 (11:39:57 PM): So, what did you have planned after this tonight? Eating in with Lilium and Dafydd, I take it? *chuckles*
CGNakibe (11:40:17 PM): To be honest, yes.
CGNakibe (11:44:01 PM): And... you know. Its surprising I wasn't expecting Lilium to suddenly turn up a child while we were in that town... but... I'm glad
she got him out of there. o.o;;
Idran1701 (11:44:54 PM): *nods* So am I. It seems to be good for both of them, really.
CGNakibe (11:45:06 PM): Yes, it does.
Idran1701 (11:45:39 PM): *chuckles, smirking* I just hope she doesn't suddenly decide to keep him.
CGNakibe (11:46:24 PM): *chuckles* Who knows? She might at this point. Its really hard to say.
Idran1701 (11:48:22 PM): *laughs a bit, trailing off some and looking thoughtful* Well, I was asking because I was wondering...you told me you had an
interest in animals?
CGNakibe (11:49:24 PM): Actually, yes. I remember being most interested in their care when I was little. That is, before Mom disallowed me to hang
around them. *sighs*
Idran1701 (11:52:20 PM): Well...there aren't many places for that here in Sigil, but I know a few. There's a stable not far from here, or a courier's shop
where they keep a small flock of astral searchers...a sort of messenger bird. I could show you to one of those...maybe you could do some work on the
side at one of them? *small smile*
CGNakibe (11:54:09 PM): Are you sure?
Idran1701 (11:54:22 PM): Why wouldn't I be?
Idran1701 (11:54:59 PM): I mean, it's something you'd want to do...isn't it?
CGNakibe (11:55:37 PM): Well, yes... just... I... I'm not sure if they'd WANT someone who is likely to be just as clumsy as a new stablehand...
Idran1701 (11:56:05 PM): *smirks* Someone that is a new stablehand, Arian.
Idran1701 (11:56:51 PM): And if you're worried about that, you could work with the
searchers...at lesat, I'd think that'd be easier than working with horses.
Idran1701 (11:56:56 PM): *least
CGNakibe (11:57:02 PM): Well, yes... I mean... Sure. I'd love to do that.
Idran1701 (11:58:06 PM): Which one? I mean, unless you want to try both, but that could be a
lot of your time...
Idran1701 (11:58:20 PM): Especially if you want to start studying magic more too.
CGNakibe (11:59:08 PM): Yes, that is true... Although... I suppose I should try the magic first.
Just in case.
CGNakibe (11:59:14 PM): If we do get home, I might not have the chance again.
Idran1701 (11:59:51 PM): ...*nods* I suppose that's true. And animals are something you
could always come back to, yes.
Idran1701 (12:00:28 AM): *smirks, laughing lightly* It's not just because you don't want to
dress down for the work, I hope?
CGNakibe (12:01:30 AM): *chuckles* No no, nothing like that.
CGNakibe (12:01:46 AM): If anything... I think maybe I'd be more comfortable in... well... more
"normal" clothes, I guess.
Idran1701 (12:02:57 AM): *gives him an appraising look, still smirking* Hmm...I don't think
you'd look bad like that, either.
CGNakibe (12:03:19 AM): (Suddenly: Arian the Blacksmith)
Idran1701 (12:04:05 AM): (Ha. :D)
CGNakibe (12:05:15 AM): I'll... see about the stables if I can. I'd like to... but... well. We'll see.
Idran1701 (12:06:28 AM): *nods* No, I don't want to push you into something you don't
entirely want to do just yet. Don't worry, I won't do the same thing your mother's done.
Idran1701 (12:06:49 AM): *grins, putting a hand on his shoulder* Besides, studying magic is
more something we can do together, right?
CGNakibe (12:07:13 AM): *grins as well* That's entirely true. Something we can both enjoy,
I'd say.
Idran1701 (12:08:11 AM): I don't know how much you'd care for some illusions, but I wouldn't
mind working alongside you with this.
CGNakibe (12:09:07 AM): Thanks. That's... good to know, really. *seems to be in thought*
Idran1701 (12:09:37 AM): ...What is it?
CGNakibe (12:10:59 AM): Oh. Um... well... *leans forwards, and kisses Karin on the cheek*
o.o;;
Idran1701 (12:11:28 AM): ...*blushes* Oh.
Idran1701 (12:13:47 AM): Well...*chuckles a bit, looking off*...does that mean you like the
idea?
CGNakibe (12:14:04 AM): Yes, very much. o.o;
Idran1701 (12:17:20 AM): *still blushing, she glances back to him; smiling, she leans over as
well, giving him a proper, if quick, kiss herself*
...Well...how was that? It's...*snickers, turning even more red*...it's the first time I've been
someone's first kiss.
CGNakibe (12:17:56 AM): It was.... good... very good, in fact... thank you.
Idran1701 (12:18:43 AM): ...*chuckles* You have no clue how cute you are sometimes, Arian.
CGNakibe (12:18:53 AM): If you say so. o.o;;;
CGNakibe (12:21:39 AM): (Getting just a bit sleepy. And this seems like a good point to cut
out...)
Idran1701 (12:22:12 AM): (*nod* Think you've got one or two more lines in you?)
CGNakibe (12:22:22 AM): (One or two, sure.)
Idran1701 (12:22:26 AM): (*nod*)
Idran1701 (12:22:36 AM): *chuckles a bit more, looking to the feather still tucked behind his
ear* So, are you going to leave that there for Lilium to ask about? I think it looks good,
myself.
CGNakibe (12:24:03 AM): Well, Um... err... *grabs at feather quickly* I wouldn't want her to
assume anything, at least. >.>;;;; Granted I do believe she likes teasing me anyway.
Idran1701 (12:25:59 AM): *chuckles, standing* I think she likes teasing everyone.
Anyway, I suppose I'll see you later tonight? We could meet here and start discussing those
magic studies.
CGNakibe (12:26:34 AM): *nods* That would be great, yes. Tonight, then.
Idran1701 (12:27:59 AM): *nods back, giving him a hug and another short kiss* Oh, you can go
ahead and keep the feather, if you'd like. Let her assume if she wants. *chuckles*
I'll see you later, Arian.
CGNakibe (12:28:31 AM): *chuckles* I was intending to keep it anyway... Later, Karinska.
Idran1701 (12:29:19 AM): (All right, then. Seems good for tonight. Tomorrow or thursday we
can talk about what you had in mind magic-wise for Arian.)
CGNakibe (12:29:57 AM): (Sounds like a good deal to me too)
Idran1701 (12:30:03 AM): (*nod* Night, Shaun. :O)
CGNakibe (12:30:47 AM): (Night.)
CGNakibe signed off at 12:31:24 AM.
