Meeting with Claire and Verus

“'Tis a busy time for us all, my love. I-”

"I can buy one here mayhaps! Or something like a cake. Pie? Pie is so very nice."

"For me?" "Thank you, my love."

I see. Valentione's Day was a good reminder of the hard doors our family kept closed, as the De'bayles were rather... separated. Certainly not the case now, but I remember a time when celebrating love was only as far as family. I suppose that is still the case now, though."

"That's a rather adorable way of going about it, actually. Well, I'd rather not take that away from you two. If there's anything you require in needs of a goldsmith, whether repair of something or creation of something new, do feel free to come to me. I'll do it free of charge as a gift for you two."

Claire invites Denz and Jancis to sweets and the pair meet Verus, a hired hand that is clearly more.

Hikari Inamoto: "Uhm...Uh. Well, if we're...going to be handling food..." Hikari takes a few steps back, beginning to undo the straps on her vambraces. "Uhm. What are we--what is the cake for? Is it someone's birthday coming up?" Denz De'bayle continues the whisking, eyebrows raising as if he wasn't whisking at all. "Oh? I pray you haven't taken Astrelle and I's punishment to heart... Then again, it might be for the best." He tilts his head in thought, before looking between the three. Aoki Miyamatsu chuckled, "Surely there's something you'd like? Fruit? Berries? Chocolate? Or perhaps you'd like it plain? Or.. Hmm.. What else could you put.. Anything, I guess!" Astrelle De'bayle: "Heavensturn," she replied to Hikari in the shortest explanation she could offer, eyes still trained on Aoki. "Rolanberry might be nice." Denz De'bayle furrows his eyebrows in thought. "You're a vanilla kind of woman, yes Astrelle?" Hikari Inamoto: "...Punish--N...no. I told you that I like to run, remember?" Hikari's response comes with a completely straight face. "It's a good way to..." Hikari Inamoto: "...oh, I like...I like vanilla." Astrelle De'bayle: "Ah- I suppose vanilla is a safe bet as well." Astrelle De'bayle: "Is vanilla alright with you, Aoki? I know not your tastes in the matter. How wild does it stretch?" Aoki Miyamatsu chuckled, "Okay! Hmm..." There was a brief pause, then she seemed light up. As if she was struck by an amazing idea. "How about... We split the cake in four. Each of us gets a quarter of it, and we can put what ever we want on that quarter! That'll be fun, yes?" Aoki Miyamatsu performs an eastern greeting towards Hikari Inamoto. Aoki Miyamatsu DID NOT DO THAT. Hikari Inamoto's eyes grow wide with awe upon seeing Aoki Miyamatsu. Denz De'bayle looks down at the bowl. "It's not going to be a particularly big cake, I don't know if four ways will be enough." Hikari Inamoto: "...Can...can you do that? Wouldn't you need...4 pans that all stand up like...big wedges?" Astrelle De'bayle: "We may separate it into halves, perhaps? Each of us partner with another to choose a side?" Aoki Miyamatsu: "Make it a little bigger then!"

Hikari Inamoto: "How do you make it bigger? Do you put yeast in it?"

Hikari Inamoto: "I don't really, uh...don't really bake. So..."

Denz De'bayle tilts his head in thought. "I suppose I could always make two and stack them... I pray one of them is strong enough to be a bottom..." Clearing his throat, he looked to Hikari, then past her to the woman on the stairs. "Oh, Jancis!" He waves a flour-covered hand to her, before looking back to Hikari. "If you want, you can help me with the second cake." Jancis Milburga smiles from the stairs, eyes squinting happily at Denz in his baking state. She raises her hand and waves back. Jancis Milburga: "Good eve!" You smile at Hikari Inamoto. You bow courteously to Aoki Miyamatsu. Hikari Inamoto: "J--Jancis! Hello!" She smiles back, giving a cheerful little wave. "It's, uh. It's good to see you." Hikari Inamoto: "..." Aoki Miyamatsu: "Not quite what I had in mind, but that sounds even better!" She smiled at Denz, then turned to the newly arrived woman. "Hello, Miss!"

Jancis Milburga nods, "It is good to see you, too. You sound like Guillemont as if he is second guessing if it is good or not." You gaze upon Hikari Inamoto in deep reflection. Hikari Inamoto: "Wait, you want me to--with the second cake? I can...uh. Sure! I can do that. Let me just..." Jancis Milburga: "Good eve, Lady. Forgive me watching from the stairs." Astrelle De'bayle offers a polite wave to the woman, a smile flashing across her lips. Her attention returned to Denz. "You seem to have it properly handled, brother." Hikari Inamoto: "H...What do...of, uh...of course it's good. Why wouldn't it be good?" Hikari Inamoto: "...I guess we do...uh. Have a similar...when we talk...hmm..." Hikari Inamoto: "...I n...never noticed that before." Denz De'bayle looked between everyone, before looking to Astrelle. "You mentioned rolanberries to top them with? You can grab some and cut them, or make the icing, or..." He stopped, looking at the mixture he was whisking fervently, before placing it on the table, grabbing a jar of milk and measuring it into the bowl, and carefully pouring it into the bowl while his other hand kept mixing the pasty contents. Jancis Milburga comments, "All that time you spoke about together." She looks over at Denz and smushes her face up, trying to notice if she was talking more like the elezen nowadays. Denz De'bayle is pretty sure he's started talking like Jancis more often. Astrelle De'bayle scowls at the options presented to her. The Baroness' drops her gaze to her side, a hand hovering over it tentatively. "I must needs wash my bandages and cloth, lest my wound become infected. I should tend to that, since it seems this cake shall be tended to quite expertly without me." She turns to Aoki and offers a faint smile. "Would you excuse me? Pray feel free to hang about if you wish." Aoki Miyamatsu: "Your.. wounds?" She tipped her head. "Ah, well.. once the cake is done, I'll let you know, yes?" Denz De'bayle: The wound from the wedding? Denz De'bayle: Killian told me. Hikari Inamoto crinkles her brow in thought. "...M...maybe? I thought I was just--I've always been, uh. Bad at talking. I think." Hikari looks down at herself, then takes the zweihander from off of her back, carefully laying it down on the nearest unoccupied table. She stops short when she overhears. Hikari Inamoto: "...Wound? You got hurt? Astrelle?" Astrelle De'bayle swivels her wrist in a vague motion. "Aye, from the wedding." She turns back to Aoki, lips taut in a feigned grim expression. "Glad am I to have missed mine own." Astrelle De'bayle: "I did, though it has been tended to. Thankfully." Jancis Milburga squeezes her hands awkwardly and looks about. "Keeper forgive me for not being here more often." Denz De'bayle snorts. "It seems even our matrimony is deemed to be filled with conflict and war." He grins at Aoki. "This is why we don't go out much." Jancis Milburga: "Are suppose to be out now." Denz De'bayle: 'Tis a busy time for us all, my love. I- Denz De'bayle blinks, looking at Jancis. "... Oh gods. I forgot." Hikari Inamoto: "...Wh...what kinds of...Armont and Carina's wedding wasn't violent..." Aoki Miyamatsu narrowed her eyes as she tried to piece together how wedding equaled injury, with absolutely no success. "Well, I'm glad you're okay. Should've told me, though!" She shook her head. Jancis Milburga: "It is all right. I will tell them."

Denz De'bayle looks down at himself, then back to Jancis, before pushing the bowl away. "No, no. Allow me a few moments to clean up and we may still attend." Astrelle De'bayle dips her head apologetically. "I would not wish to further delay our meetings. However! I must tend to this. Pray let me know when the cake has been finished," her eyes drifted to gaze between Jancis and Denz, brow furrowing some, "if it is finished. Hopefully I should not fall asleep whilst bathing as before."

Hikari Inamoto glances between Jancis and Denz, hustling to put the zweihander aside, then starts undoing the straps on her armor. "I can--I can take over for you. If you need to go. Uhm. Or try to. You wanted me to help, anyway." Aoki Miyamatsu: "Will do!" Jancis Milburga drops her shoulders and looks extremely apologetic. "I am sorry to interrupt so terribly."

Astrelle De'bayle raises a hand to quell Jancis. "Fret not. My brother was overzealous in his approach, but... it was a welcome sight to see him in an apron, as opposed to armor." She shot Denz a teasing grin. Jancis Milburga: "He does look very endearing in an apron and flour." Denz De'bayle looks between everyone, before his eyes fell to Hikari. "I can leave you instructions on what to do next." Taking off his apron and revealing his adamantite breastplate, he tosses it back to the bakery assistant before finding a towel to rub his hands with. "Aye, aprons look good on me." He returns the grin with his own.

Jancis Milburga rubs her cheek, "Fetching, truly." Astrelle De'bayle huffs an amused breath, waving a hand loftily at her sibling.

Hikari Inamoto shoves the mess of chain links off over her head, pausing with a cringe as she had to take her time to untangle her hair from it. "A...alright. I'll wash my hands and uh...I'll do my best with it."

Astrelle De'bayle: "Again, you are free to stay if you wish, Aoki. Hikari is a friendly sort. I should imagine her and you to get along. If you've need of me, my room is down the hallway. Fourth door on the left." With that, she offered a gentle bow and finally turned to leave. Aoki Miyamatsu: "Well, I'll at least finish up the cake! And if something comes up, I'll let you know." She gave the woman a polite nod and a bright smile. Astrelle De'bayle was now LEAVING. She moved to ascend the steps, fixing Hikari with a pointed look before turning her head forward, moving up the stairs with a slow, careful gait. Denz De'bayle moves to grab a parchment and quill, leaning into the counter to began scribbling cooking instructions on it haphazardly. Hopefully Hikari was fluent in chicken-scratch, as the knight flew across the room to place the paper next to the cake bowls, grabbing his overcoat and slipping it back on(with magical shoulderpads and all). Jancis Milburga looks up the stairs following Astrelle's bath, still looking at guilty as can be as her gaze comes back. Hikari Inamoto rejoins the cluster of people, watching as Astrelle departed. "Ah--" She glances down at Aoki. "...Do you know how to bake?" Dalmar Ferrera: "Hope your folks don't mind me bein' here. I ain't exactly Ul'dah nobility." Denz De'bayle moved towards Jancis, eyes catching Astrelle leave, before turning to the two women and nodding his head. "If you need anything, simply call upon me." Aoki Miyamatsu: "I do," she nodded at the woman, then turned to Denz. "Will do. It was nice meeting you," she offered him a bow of her head, "And you too, Miss." Then waved at them both. Adelise De'bayle approaches Gaspard, offering him Summer and Mercy's leads almost immediately. "Could you please see they are cleaned and dried off. They played around in the puddles," she says out to him, "I would not want them getting the floors muddy after all your hard work." The man nods to her, taking the dogs leashes. It hadn't been uncommon practice as of late, for him to care for them when she needed someone to. Turning back to Dalmar, she waved a dismissive hand. "Worry not of that, this way." Jancis Milburga: "I am sure it will be wonderful, Lady Hikari. I am so sorry." She also apologizes to Denz. "Forgive me." Dalmar Ferrera: "Uh, alright. If y'say so!" Jancis Milburga bows to Aoki, "I would have liked to make more of your acquaintance. Be well." Hikari Inamoto: "Y--you don't have to apologize. We'll, uhm. I'm sure it'll turn out nicely."

Denz De'bayle looks back to Jancis, smiling. "'Tis my fault for forgetting so." He places a hand on her arm carefully, squeezing it. "Should I change?" His free hand swipes at the flour on his coat's front. Aoki Miyamatsu: "I would like that," the smile remained on her lips as she spoke, "Good bye you two." Adelise De'bayle: "Oh. Quite the crowd," Adelise blinks, "you two are leaving?" Dalmar Ferrera: "Looks like it's th'place to be!" Aoki Miyamatsu shifted her attention to Hikari. "Shall we continue then?" Hikari Inamoto perks up at the sound of puppy paws up above. Jancis Milburga shakes her head. "Need not to."

Jancis Milburga: "Yes. Yes I made a promise elsewhere. I am sorry. Denz was baking, too."

Denz De'bayle looks up the stairs towards the younger kin, nodding.

Hikari Inamoto: "Uhm. Right! It's time to bake! Dogs later. Uhm. Let me just...take a look at..." Hikari lightly jogs towards the table where Denz wrote down instructions, her face pales when she sees his notes. Hikari Inamoto: "..." Jancis Milburga: "I am sorry.

Jancis Milburga looks about the house's sign before past the gate. "Lady Claire." She looks at the pair on the bench with soft eyes. "Good eve. Forgive me I am horribly belated."

Claire Nyhmidu looks up from the little black book she had open, scanning over things she had written down the last week about work; her eyes looking over the frames of her glasses, "Oh, Jancis. Where's Denzel?"

Verus Inanis glanced up, offering a small, half smile in a way of greeting to the Hyur before glancing to the elezen beside him, not introducing but listening to the conversation for now for the time being, as it was clear the two were aquainted with one another.

Claire Nyhmidu: (( Oh pffft there he is. Long time no see Denz. ))

Denz De'bayle walks briskly into the yard, breath partially heavy as he stopped next to Jancis. "P-pray forgive my tardiness. I got side-tracked helping mine sister with a cake and then..." His breath runs out, catching and trying to regain it several times and clearing his throat. "I insisted I clean up the flour on my coat. I'm sorry, my lady." He looks down at Jancis. "Forgive me for causing our tardiness." Jancis Milburga blinks at the apology before turning back to Claire and Verus. "Yes. Pray forgive us. And the cake is not even done baking so we could not bring you both a slice for such waiting." Claire Nyhmidu: "Oh? Astrelle was baking?" Claire asked, raising an eyebrow at that, "I never took her as the baking type." Jancis Milburga: "I can buy one here mayhaps! Or something like a cake. Pie? Pie is so very nice." Verus Inanis: "I wouldn't fret about it. I understand how one can get caught up in baking and enjoying it." He laughed, the slight smile turning into a full one. "More than fine, truly." You bow courteously to Verus Inanis. Jancis Milburga: "You are so understanding, Lord." Verus Inanis: "No, not understanding.. I've done the exact same thing. I've been in your shoes many a time." He grinned. Jancis Milburga widens her eyes, "Oh, Builder's Sake. I cannot believe such a joke. You are grinning and I am keen to those. Your feet are far bigger and I am standing all the way over here." Denz De'bayle lets out a breath-y chuckle, looking to Claire. "She's, ah... she's not. She looked like she was fishing for a wrench in a bucket more than whisking." His eyes went to the man, bowing his head once more. "Thank you, my lord. I... I try not to make a habit of being late. Efforts only go so far." He shakes his head, looking up to the building they stood before. "Where is this?" Verus Inanis: "It's an expression, miss." He said with a small shake of his head. "I've been in your position before, is what it means. Being the one late due to cooking and all." He then glanced to Claire. He'd only been here once and it hadn't been open then, so he was curious as well. Claire Nyhmidu: "I'll have to ask her about that some day soon..." She said with a chuckle, putting the small book away as she held a hand out to the man next to her, "This is Verus. Verus, this is Jancis and Denzel. He goes by Denz, usually. Denzel is Astrelle's brother." Jancis Milburga lets out a small sound of realization before bobbing her head in a nod. "It is nice to meet you Lord Verus." Verus Inanis rose to his feet as he took Claire's hand in his own before nodding to Jancis and then Denz. "The pleasure is mine, and I'm no lord. Verus is more than fine." Jancis Milburga regards Verus a moment, "I will strive to remember." Denz De'bayle 's hand came up to place lightly on Jancis back, guiding them forward to the other pair, closing the distance to look closely at the elezen. "Glad to meet you as well, Verus." He looked sidelong at Claire, giving her a small smile in greeting. Denz De'bayle: ((Good thing I went with armor. Verus' shirt was my next choice. XD)) Claire Nyhmidu: "How has things with the family been?" Claire asked, "Though I suppose that question is best suited to when we've been seated. Shall we?"

Claire Nyhmidu: (( Well, one of us has to go home and change. )) Denz De'bayle gestures a hand to the door. "After you two." Claire Nyhmidu: (( It's not your fault men dont have many choices LOL )) Verus Inanis: ((I could have switched easily then, I was tempted to use my leonhart jacket lol)) Verus Inanis nodded to the pair before following Claire inside. You bury your face in disbelief.

Jancis Milburga thanks Denz and goes through the door, "They do have cake. Not as good as yours, but surely close."

Claire Nyhmidu: "Well at least they're open this time..." Claire said, nodding to the person behind the counter as she looked to the others-- not a moment longer did she start following the employee downstairs, "And Denz bakes? I had no clue." Jancis Milburga: "Oh. It is a date. I got this for you." She looks through her satchel as she follows suit. Jancis Milburga looks about the booth as she sits down. "Like making a hanging garden, yes?" Denz De'bayle blinks in surprise at Jancis' words. "I think that's not being fair to their cake. I wouldn't claim to be the best!" He rubs his cheek in embarrassment, before following the pair down. "You never picked that up, between my fitful episodes regarding bread?" Denz De'bayle grins tauntingly at Claire Nyhmidu. Claire Nyhmidu: "Well I do remember you speaking of it, but I hadn't a clue the family actually knew how to bake themselves! Despite however long I lived with the family... I must have spent too much time in my room." She said, looking thoughtful as the menus were set on the table for the four of them. Jancis Milburga holds out some small white flowers to Denz, tied in a bit of white ribbon. They're quite tiny considering she could hide them in her bag. "For you." Jancis Milburga: "Scholar's Sake, Lady Claire. It is one of Denz's favorites. He makes it all himself. And all different types. Different grains and some are soft and fluffy and rise and some are flat and the one he carries with him will survive most anything and still taste good." Verus Inanis picked up one menu, looking through it with a thoughtful expression on his face. He stared at the different items offered, considering the menu and what might be different from what he's had before.. or if he could cook it himself based on the descriptions they gave, as that'd be a cheaper option. Denz De'bayle turned back to Jancis. "For me?" He chuckled, carefully picking them up in the thin cloth of his gloves, eyeing them over carefully. "Thank you, my love." He moves the flowers down to place on the table, pausing, moving them to his pouch, paused again, before placing them in his hair and turning back to Claire. "Indeed. 'Twas always a dream of mine to own a bakery. The one we've in the basement of our house now... works, for now." Denz De'bayle: ((Ignoring the blue for white. ;>.>)) Claire Nyhmidu: "Oh do you? Hm, I must have left before it was finished. I remember some sort of construction going on... I had been considering dropping by, but I wasn't terribly sure." Denz De'bayle tilts his head sympathetically. "You did not leave under poor circumstances, Claire. I can't imagine why you'd hesitate." He looks to Verus, a small grin on his face. "I doubt you met him on a battlefield though, yes?" Jancis Milburga smiles at the start contrast of white on Denz's raven hair. She doesn't make a move for the menu, instead quoting fondly, “All sorrows are less with bread. ” Claire Nyhmidu: "Yes I know, but... mm." She paused, looking to Verus, letting him speak for this one. Verus Inanis: "Hm?" He looked up from the menu. "No, I actually was out of work when we met." He chuckled awkwardly. "War, battle, and protecting important persons is work, but the free company I had worked with at the time had been going through a rather long lull in offers for jobs, so I was without any source of pay back then. It was happy coincidences that led us to meet, and fortune I probably don't deserve to have." Jancis Milburga: "You are a thief?" Claire Nyhmidu chuckles, "No, he's not. At least I would hope not." Verus Inanis: "Mercenary, sword for hire, sellsword. Nothing else. I don't steal, I don't act like a common crook. If I fight, it's for coin, but I choose whose coin I take." Jancis Milburga smiles lightly, "Then clearly Nymeia thinks differently of all you have now. May you come to deserve your fortune in your eyes." Jancis Milburga: "I still strive to do that for mine own." Claire Nyhmidu: "You have a job as security now, so it's not like you have to worry much about that anymore."

Denz De'bayle sets his mouth, trying subtly to pin his accent, before shrugging his arms. "Mercenary work is never in short need in Eorzea. Sometimes the jobs and work we do in the House feels similarly." He looked at Jancis, placing his hand over her's silently, squeezing the hand. Verus Inanis: "This is true.. And so far it's left me a lot of time to work on my own recipes and maintenance." He nodded in agreement before turning to Jancis. "May you as well, and may you gain further." He said with a small nod. "And it's unfortunate that it is always needed, but it assures those without any other skills like myself have a place and a way to eat without stooping to criminal activities." He said as he turned to Denz. "I prefer it when I don't need to be hired, personally." Verus Inanis: "But that causes issues in itself. For me, at least." He laughed. Claire Nyhmidu takes a moment to pick up one of the menus, adjusting her glasses to sit higher on the bridge of her nose before looking at it properly. You smile at Verus Inanis. Jancis Milburga: "Then you work for Lady Claire?" Denz De'bayle nods his head. "Though a peaceful world is a noble goal, there are some things that can't be controlled." He picks up one of the menus he neglected until now, scanning over it with a grin. "Like a rampaging morbol." Jancis Milburga looks over the table, hand squeezing back her thumb finding knuckle to graze over, "He fought a morbol? They are vicious. Did you save any of it? Their venom are actually quite useful despite how. How." She seems lost for the word. Jancis Milburga: "How mortally potent they are in their raw form." Verus Inanis: "I do." He nodded. "I'm security for her, now. And that is true, but those occasions, well.. If they happened frequently enough, we wouldn't ever be for want of combat and work. But in comparison to the volume of those of us with little else but a blade and spirit, the occasions are not frequent enough to provide steady work for all who focus on combat." Claire Nyhmidu glances up at Verus a moment, looking back to the menu after, "Well, he technically works for the little company a business associate and i run. Though it's more my business associate's than mine." Denz De'bayle frowned with some thought. "To be alongside those you contracted for protection... Is that wise? Any complications to being with the one you hired?" He was lost in thought, before bringing the menu back up to continue looking. Jancis Milburga: "Technically? As you say. Have you been well, then? And safe? You look happy and well." Jancis looks at the two more closely for wounds or discomfort to be sure she wasn't talking out of turn. Your eyes grow wide with awe upon seeing Denz De'bayle. Claire Nyhmidu: "My business associate seems to have no issue with it. Nor are we up and running yet, so I've not really seen any issues... mm." She frowned faintly, "I certainly hope it won't become an issue anyway..." Claire looked fine when it came to anything visible wound wise. She had fading bruises, but they weren't visible. Verus Inanis 's only visible wound is the old scar across his cheek. He shrugged at Denz before picking his menu back up as well. "It's not something the inexperienced can do with ease, but.. if one can properly temper their emotions and know when to quiet them to ensure safety of their important person, it shouldn't prove a threat to that person. In fact, it helps as it ensures that we are close and can tell quickly when something is wrong with each other." His free hand reached over to Claire's, to + Verus Inanis + rest atop her own as he held the menu with one hand. Jancis Milburga relaxed that her words were true, looking back up at Denz. "I never did hire you for all the aid you gave me when we met. Does that make it less complicated?" Claire Nyhmidu: "He has been re-training me how to use a blade, but so far it has just been hand to hand combat." Claire said with a chuckle, "Thankfully he keeps away from my face or I'm sure that gaze you gave me would have been a lot more than just a gaze, Jancis. Rest assured, I'm fine." Denz De'bayle raised an eyebrow towards Jancis, an epitomous grin look towards her. "Would you call such less complicated?" He turned back to the man, nodding. "A... relatable situation, aye. Save the fact I am not paid." Denz De'bayle grins tauntingly at you. Denz De'bayle fails to understand Verus Inanis.

Jancis Milburga blinks and looks back to Claire, smiling bashfully. "Very glad for that. Though your hands are equally important. You clearly take care of them to wear such lovely feathers on your dress by them." Your eyes grow wide with awe upon seeing Denz De'bayle. Jancis Milburga cannot help smiling and laughing a bit at Denz's statement. Verus Inanis: "Mostly it's been grappling, at least on my end, since I don't want to injure." He chuckled and nodded at the two across the table. "And we're doing so. To wield a blade, strength and endurance must be built up first, so we're taking it one step at a time." Claire Nyhmidu: "Of course. If I had any injury to my hands I wouldn't be able to work." She said with a sigh, "That and I still can't seem to actually pick a blade up yet... damned war." She muttered after, hiding her face behind the menu once more as her fingers wrapped around the hand of his atop hers. Denz De'bayle lets out a breath, nodding his head. "Aye, sir Verus. Did Claire ever mention her tour of service in Ala Mhigo?"

Jancis Milburga looked between all three, still not touching the menu. "You are the Aspiring. Althyk will give you all the time you need. When it is important, you surely will again. And I am sure it will be sooner than that." Claire Nyhmidu 's body stiffens at that, taking in a deep breath before sighing, "I officially gave up the title and medal. I am just Claire." Jancis Milburga: "I do not understand. You are Claire." Claire Nyhmidu: "I mean.. I don't have a title attached to my name. I'm not the aspiring. I'm Claire." Verus Inanis nodded. "She has spoken of it, and of what has happened." He nodded. "I've not heard all details, I'm sure, but I don't need to know more than what she is comfortable telling me, as she's been through much." Denz De'bayle looks sidelong at Jancis. "I shall have to rectify the annals." He looked back Claire. "I understand it being a touchy subject. My apologies, I should've known since you left the House." Jancis Milburga looks thoughtful, “What is in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” "Forgive me, cannot lessen what your name holds." Claire Nyhmidu: "Just... know it's not an official thing anymore, I suppose." She said with a faint frown, the same employee from earlier arriving at the table to see if they were ready to order. Claire Nyhmidu: "And ah... it's fine, Denz. I... mm. Am also sorry for how I had acted when I spoke to you in Armont's office that one day in regards to what happened on the first part of the campaign. I lost my temper a little." Jancis Milburga: "As you like. To whomever is official." She waits for everyone else to order, first, looking around curiously.

Denz De'bayle 's eyebrows rose in surprise, before lowering alongside a faint smile. "It's alright, my lady. We are not all made for such. Ishgardians..." He tilted his head in an unsaid sentence, looking to the worker. He narrowed his eyes curiously. "Ah, I'll take 3 Dalamud Dangos, and water." He looked at Jancis. "Tea, of any kind?"

Claire Nyhmidu glanced to the employee, "Ah... a cup of Silver Needle and the Cake de Chocobo, please." Jancis Milburga: "Thank you I would like some tea. A flower or fruit type mayhaps?" She looks at Denz, then the attendant. "You must know everything here, yes? I trust your judgement."

Verus Inanis checked the menu, before nodding and speaking up. "I'll take water as well, and one Red Moon."

Claire Nyhmidu || The employee nods, noting it all down and excusing herself with the slight bow of her head. Jancis Milburga: "Thank you, Lady!" Jancis Milburga: "Then this business has not started? You have been working on projects in the mean time? It was Starlight and you had commissions perhaps?" Claire Nyhmidu: "But ah... yes. We were all given medals and titles after the war had been over and I had mine written off as no longer existing by the officials who gave it so..." Claire said, shrugging slightly at Verus, "That's all there is to that." Jancis Milburga quiets. Denz De'bayle: Ah, well then. That saves me the effort of doing that then. Denz De'bayle shrugs his arms. "Best way to move on from such, I suppose." Jancis Milburga looks torn about Denz's shrug. Claire Nyhmidu looks to Jancis after, "Oh, yes of course. I still was working on my own things. I just wasn't working under the banner of the business I work for. My Starlight was rather busy... and I already have Valentines orders as well... so early." Denz De'bayle: Halone, should I already be worrying about Valentione's Day? Verus Inanis: "Ah.." He rolled his shoulders before smiling on hearing Claire mention orders already lined up. Jancis Milburga: "That is well thought of, though. Menphina's moon is close. You can talk of one with us?" Claire Nyhmidu: "Perhaps..." Claire said, giving a thoughtful look that lead to no other words to say, for the time. Jancis Milburga raises an eyebrow at Denz. "What is there to worry about?" Denz De'bayle: Decorations, gifts, are we bringing people together for something? What to wear? What to eat? Who's getting these gifts? Denz De'bayle tilts his head. "Though you take care most of these worries, though there are certainly more things I must needs do to help you with such." Jancis Milburga smiles with a bit of awe at Denz, "You make it sound so complicated. I would be very happy to have your help for it. Yes. We should eat and dress in warm colors and ah. I am not sure what kind of gifts. Sweet bread?" Verus Inanis looked between the pair across the table, then to Claire on the mention of dressing in warm colors. "...Is that tradition, to dress in certain colors?" Claire Nyhmidu watches the two for a moment, finally setting the menu aside as she had still been holding onto it. "For the holiday? I don't think so." Claire Nyhmidu: "I haven't celebrated it in the couples sense before. My mother enjoys all holidays, so she'd make sure we have chocolates." Denz De'bayle smiles, before looking back across the table. "Why merely keep the dress code to stuffy balls and uniform gatherings? It can fun, if it's not too complex of a code." He nods his head. "Chocolates are a good touch." Verus Inanis glanced away on the mention of a code for dress, then busied himself staring at the menu. Claire Nyhmidu: "Mm, I see. I mean I do wear almost all the same colour going out usually... if that counts." Claire said, looking thoughtful, "And they're chocolates the head chef would usually make. As children she usually got us to help, but... helping usually just meant making a mess."

Jancis Milburga: "Dare say it sounds like a very tasty mess." Claire Nyhmidu: "I will admit, washing chocolate off of children isn't terribly easy." Claire said with a pause, "I often had to help with cleaning my youngest sisters after that... I was old enough to do as such then." Denz De'bayle: I see. Valentione's Day was a good reminder of the hard doors our family kept closed, as the De'bayles were rather... separated. Certainly not the case now, but I remember a time when celebrating love was only as far as family." He looked back at Jancis. "I suppose that is still the case now, though." Claire Nyhmidu || Coming back with their orders, each person had the respective order placed in front of them; the Peach Blossom tea placed in front of Jancis after her request for a tea of fruit and floral hints. Nodding to the four of them, the employee left as soon as she came, not wanting to disturb conversation. Jancis Milburga looks up at Denz, eyes shining, and smiles softly. "Forgive me for not breaking such tradition." Jancis Milburga fails to thank the lady server, half standing to do so... but she's too slow. Denz De'bayle chuckles, before nodding his thanks to the waiter, looking to Claire. "So, beyond work, is there aught else you have done since last we spoke?" Claire Nyhmidu: "Uh..." She said, picking up the teacup as she got a thoughtful look on her face, "... Work?" She laughed after, "Really, I've worked... and that's about it." Denz De'bayle raises his eyebrows in surprise. "Truly? Even myself and Jancis took some time to move away from the troubles of Eorzea." Denz De'bayle: And we practically breathe these problems every day. Breathe them for others!

Claire Nyhmidu frowns faintly, "We're in the midst of working on a vacation plan... I mean I purchased an apartment in Shirogane thanks to a company there that bought it for me... but it's still just in the process of planning. This trip."

Denz De'bayle: Shirogane... Is that city or the place where everyone was breaking the Eastern frontier? Jancis Milburga: "Pray do not overplan. There is so much there. Denz and I have seen the colorful banners and cliffsides ourselves."

Claire Nyhmidu: "It's the housing district of Kugane, to my recollection." Verus Inanis: "We're getting close to being able to go though, once a few things are covered, we'll be able to take a long trip overseas. I've got a bit of an itenerary ready, and a few places in mind to visit again and show Claire, but only when we are able to take that trip." He responded before digging into the ice cream he had, collapsing part of the dome over it before scooping a small bite of it out with the small pieces, before bringing it to his mouth and taking a bite.

Claire Nyhmidu looks to Jancis afterward, "Is there a lot to see? I do look forward to it then. I'd been wanting to go to the east for... a long time now." Verus Inanis: "There's much, Claire. Even our trip will only scratch the barest surface of what there is there." Claire Nyhmidu: "Oh, mm. I see. I suppose that gives reason to return then." Denz De'bayle: That depends on where you plan to go. Ours took us to the city, to the housing district, and to the mainland itself. We saw ruins and castles, ruined castles, farmsteads and pastures, I even heard tell of the Steppes where the Xaela tribes roam, though we didn't get to see them. Denz De'bayle: ... Probably for the best.

Verus Inanis: "Definitely for the best. Some of them are a violent lot, and you may have been surprised by the sharpened end of a spear as a way of greeting, with how some of the tribes act. But they also are quite skilled in the ways of combat." He chuckled.

Claire Nyhmidu: "Do they not accept people there? While I ah..." She gets a skewed look on her face, "Am still rather uncomfortable with them, the call of their little trade outpost is hard to resist."

Verus Inanis: "The trade outpost is neutral ground, Claire. But they are rather protective of themselves and of their areas, for good reason. For one to steal from the land is to possibly deny them food for their own."

Denz De'bayle: I have heard it is quite a tumultuous land, as much as it is beautiful. We had our own, ah... Au Ra headaches anyhow. Claire Nyhmidu: "Oh, I see. Perhaps... worth skipping for now regardless. I'm supposed to be going on vacation...not working." Jancis Milburga closes her eyes a moment, "He use to be a desperate man who lost a great deal and was misled most of his life. It was better we had such aches and pains." Jancis Milburga: "In a way I am glad for it. A different land without the same trials and burdens here? That would not make sense. They are simply different in little ways."

Denz De'bayle: Aye. We were supposed to be there to explore with a friend, and found ourselves in more than one troubling situation. Fortunately, we only had to draw our weapons against some walking suits of armor... And some thieving kojin, those turtle-like beastmen." Claire Nyhmidu sets her teacup down for now, lifting the parfait and dipping the spoon in, offering the first bite to Verus, "I see. I look forward to seeing those differences... and hopefully not getting into too much trouble. I don't think I could confidently pick up a weapon and I'd rather not have Verus have to do all the work for that..." Jancis Milburga: "And for as much of those, it is good to see all the new answers and wonders that exist. Opens so many ideas and inspirations. And... oh... that we had armor or weapons against those kojin." She flinches at the thought, losing her optimistic words.

Claire Nyhmidu chuckles, "I will be bringing a sketchbook or two. I do hope that doesn't count as work, as you are right Jancis. I'm sure I'll end up with many ideas and inspirations for my work." You smile at Claire Nyhmidu. Claire Nyhmidu: "How have things been with you two, by the by? It has been some time since we last spoke." Denz De'bayle sets his mouth in thought, looking to Jancis. Verus Inanis: "Armor and weapons against the Kojin?" He raised a brow, before shaking his head and returning to eating. "Must've been reds.." He muttered between bites. Jancis Milburga keeps her smile, "I do not regret going. Not at all. I am better for it. We are healing. I still do work in Gyr Abania. A lot of venom and poisons to work with and helping people to rebuild. Really it is much like the work I already do with the Maelstrom for the settling sailors. And Denz." She looks up at his thoughtful expression for a moment, "We have never been closer. I would be remiss to say things are easy right now, but we find moments of happiness." Claire Nyhmidu: "Ah... yes. Astrelle has told me of what's going on at the manor with your brother missing, Denz." Claire said, taking the spoon and digging into the parfait again, "He did seem rather obsessive with his research when we were close. He spent more time at his desk than with myself. But. I'm glad to hear that. I often wonder to myself when you two may end up marrying... with how long I've known you two it has been with you both together. But it was just a mere curiosity. I would never really > Claire Nyhmidu: want to hint someone into doing that. It'd be rude." Jancis Milburga sets down her tea, reaching her hand into her pocket for a moment, her face looking more comforted in the motion.

>> Valeriaux Marquaile: 2:31]Jancis Milburga sets down her tea, reaching her hand into her pocket for a moment, her face looking more comforted in the motion.

Denz De'bayle: We, ah... took a more unorthodox approach to our bonding. 'Tis no secret, though something I feel our family would wish rectified. Denz De'bayle nods to Claire. "But as you said, there are more important issues to attend to then planning an unneeded wedding."

Claire Nyhmidu stops the spoon half way up to her mouth, "Wait, you two are actually officially bonded?"

Jancis Milburga: "Forgive me, there has been no fanfare for it." Claire Nyhmidu chuckles, "It's fine. Congratulations! If I had known I would have gotten or made you two a gift." Jancis Milburga laughs bashfully, "I dare think you are one of the few people happy about it and not upset." Claire Nyhmidu: "I'm not sure why I'd be upset. After knowing you two so long I was rather looking forward to a bonding ceremony some day, to be honest." Verus Inanis glanced at Claire as he downed a few more bites of his dessert, before speaking up to the pair. "Congratulations, you two. I hope for you both to have long lives and happiness together. Don't let anyone other than yourselves decide what is right for you two." Denz De'bayle smiles lightly, bowing his head in humility. "Thank you. There are plans, ideas... but all must be put on hold until everyone is brought back safely." He tilted his head at Claire. "When did you speak with Astrelle last?" Claire Nyhmidu: "Mm, about half a moon ago?" Claire said in thought, "She looked exhausted." Denz De'bayle nods his head. "She has Guillemont's habit of undersleeping, and failing to hide it well." Claire Nyhmidu: "Yes, I did notice that. Where have you looked? He did mention sometime before we seperated that his research was leading him to ah... the warmer part of Ishgard? What was it called... it was where the dragons reside." Claire Nyhmidu: "Or the area anyway." You seem lost in thought. Jancis Milburga: "What little we have been able to trace has taken us the other direction, but that does not mean it might not lead us there." Denz De'bayle blinks. "Warmer parts? I hadn't thought to look in Dravania for such." He clears his throat. "Ah... I fear the subject delves into topics not fit for discussion over a date." Denz De'bayle: Plus, 'tis nothing more than worry and stress on your mind. We'll find him, Claire. You can trust in that. Claire Nyhmidu: "Oh. Hm." She said, the spoon from earlier still hovering instead of finally taking that bite, "Well. I ah. Do hope you find him and in good health. While him and I may no longer speak really, I do hope he's safe." She finally took the bite of parfait, taking a moment to eat it and swallow, "But I'm sure you're right, Denz." Jancis Milburga apologizes, "Right. Date." She shifts closer to the armored elezen regardless of clanking and knee bonking. She looks at his dessert of sweet-glazed dumplings. "That is so much like the little stick treats when we were in the colorful walls of Kugane." >> Denz De'bayle: Jancis references for dating: https://www.wikihow.com/Date-a-Guy ... or not. She probably found something else. Jancis Milburga: "They really like soups there, too. They push carts around with all kinds of food for people working about. I mean I have seen the same here, but never soup. I think that is a wonderful idea." Claire Nyhmidu: "Verus had spent numerous cycles in the east, so he's very knowledgeable. I'm glad we're not going in blind, but I'm sure there was a sense of fun doing that too." Denz De'bayle >> HAH! That first picture has a bit of resemblance to Jancis! >> Denz De'bayle: Oh wow it actually does. Denz De'bayle: One of Jancis' friends was born there, but it was all a learning experience as he left rather young. Claire Nyhmidu: "Oh I see. At least he got a chance to go back to his place of birth. What did he think of it?" Jancis Milburga nods, "It was really touching that he asked us to come with him. I dare think he needed the support as much as wanting to share it. He had a lot of feelings. What he had there is gone. Was nervous to see what war had done to it, but in a way it is like visiting a grave it is calming and gives solace." Denz De'bayle smiles slightly, picking up one of the dango to eat, his mouth closing around one of the balls on the stick to swallow whole.

Jancis Milburga: “Never say goodbye because goodbye means going away and going away means forgetting.” You smile weakly at Claire Nyhmidu. Jancis Milburga glances at Denz. "Are those balls good? Forgive me, what are they called again?" Claire Nyhmidu nods slowly, "Well, it's good that he took away good things from it. I'm sure there was not so good things as well... but it sounds like it went well enough despite the bumps." Claire said, setting her half eaten parfait aside for now to pick the cup of tea back up, "And you're quite correct, Jancis." Jancis Milburga: "I think so. I should check in on him. He is kind of like you. Works with his hands a lot. Bigger, though. He is very skilled at making armor."

Claire Nyhmidu: "Oh! Is it a Lalafell?" Claire asked, looking curious. Jancis Milburga: "Why yes he is." Verus Inanis finished off his dessert, before setting the spoon upon his plate. He nodded at Jancis's words regarding saying farewell. He raised a brow on the mention of the man being a skilled armorer, and then at Claire's response. Claire Nyhmidu: "I've spoken with him before then! I frankly cannot recall his name though... I should really speak business with him again some day. We ended up speaking of my ah... issues with needing corrective lenses and needing to wear a helmet at the same time..."

Claire Nyhmidu: "After what happened in the war." Claire said with an awkward chuckle. Denz De'bayle nods to Jancis, thinking for a moment. "Dalamud Dango. Its sweet. Perhaps I shouldn't have gotten three of them..." He thinks to himself, before shaking his head, eating another. Jancis Milburga offers helpfully, "Sir Chachanji?" She nods. "It did not go badly. Not that time."

Claire Nyhmidu: "Yes! That's it, thank you Jancis."

Jancis Milburga: "His forge has grown well in the Goblet." Claire Nyhmidu: "That's good to hear. I'll have to give him a visit. I'm sure Verus here would be interested in meeting him as well." She said, smiling to the man, "I saw the glance you gave me." Jancis Milburga looks at Denz's plate and picks up the stick, moving the last dango to the end before offering it to Denz with a good humored smile.

Verus Inanis nodded. "I'm quite curious now as to the works he makes, with the discussion had and your mention of how he's adjusted a helmet to account for vision." Claire Nyhmidu: "Well, we spoke of it at least. I'm not sure if he attempted. But that does give me a good reason to visit."

Verus Inanis nodded. "I look forward to meeting him." Denz De'bayle blinked, taking up the last dango to keep eating it, the food having long since sat for too long because of their talking. Claire Nyhmidu nods, looking to the other two, "Is there anything I can make for you two in celebration of your bonding? Rings, perhaps?" Claire Nyhmidu: "If you don't have any, that is." Denz De'bayle swallowed down the food, clearing his throat, but looking to Jancis. Jancis Milburga squints happily, laughing and looking at the stick before setting it down. "This being on a date is fun." Claire Nyhmidu: "I'll take that as a no, then." Jancis Milburga looks over at Claire. "That is very generous. Very much so. Forgive me, Denz had the idea when we were in Kugane. We found a cart. When people come to you for rings, do they have to ask for special ones in particular that you hide behind the counter?"

Claire Nyhmidu: "I tend to make those special ones by order, but I have heard of people doing that, yes." Claire Nyhmidu: "Otherwise, I keep all my stock out in the open." Denz De'bayle finally composes himself from his mad dash of eating, nodding his head. "'Twas a street vendor. I must imagine she kept the nicer rings away from the public lest they be stolen. A hopeful gambit that paid off, asking for wedding bands at such a jeweler." You smile at Denz De'bayle. Claire Nyhmidu smiles, "That's a rather adorable way of going about it, actually. Well, I'd rather not take that away from you two. If there's anything you require in needs of a goldsmith, whether repair of something or creation of something new, do feel free to come to me. I'll do it free of charge as a gift for you two." Jancis Milburga: "Lady Claire that is immensely generous." Your eyes grow wide with awe upon seeing Claire Nyhmidu. Denz De'bayle 's eyebrows rose in surprise. "I... Truly, that is kind of you to offer, Claire." Claire Nyhmidu continues to smile, "You've saved me numerous times, Jancis. It's the absolute least I could do for you." Claire Nyhmidu: "If anything, I wish I could do more. But I know when people aren't comfortable to accepting such things." Jancis Milburga absently rubs her cheek, smiling back. "Thank you. I will not forget it."

Claire Nyhmidu nods, finishing off her tea and setting the cup down.

Jancis Milburga: "Do you both have far to travel this night?" Denz De'bayle >> Knowing Denz and Jancis, they might ask her to make something that could be given to someone as a gift.)) Claire Nyhmidu: "To either Limsa or Ul'dah, we have no residence or place to stay around here. Though I'm sure we could find an inn if we didn't wish to travel." >> Denz De'bayle: That's a pretty good idea. Sounds like them.)) Denz De'bayle: I would offer board and room at the Dawn Vigil, but sadly all we can offer is a barracks bed. Many of the rooms were remade into training facilities or the infirmary... Denz De'bayle: Though there -is- a bathroom being made... Denz De'bayle seems lost in thought. You sense something amiss with Denz De'bayle. Claire Nyhmidu chuckles, "Good to hear my room is being put to good use. It's quite alright though. I'm not terribly tired so it's up to Verus." Verus Inanis: "The offer is kind and appreciated, but we'll be quite fine. We have plenty of time to head back to Limsa, as it is." He smiled before turning to Claire. "Well, if not tired, we could head back and finish up that training?" He asked with a small grin. "We did cut it a little short earlier." Claire Nyhmidu purses her lips, "Maybe." Denz De'bayle chuckles. "That reminds me, when was the last time we worked on your knightly training?" Denz De'bayle grins tauntingly at you. Your eyes grow wide with awe upon seeing Denz De'bayle. Jancis Milburga: "Althyk's Grace! I. Well I have been. Been working on it a bit." Claire Nyhmidu: "Oh, so Jancis is taking up a blade as well?" Jancis Milburga flusters as she struggles to recall the last time, her sad admittance. "Moons." Jancis Milburga: "It is a trade. Denz is to learn the ways of the land and healing aethers and that is what he offered as payment. He even got me armor." Denz De'bayle places a soothing hand on her back. "We've been busy." He admits. Claire Nyhmidu: "Oh? Interesting. I do hope he's a good student." Claire said with a chuckle. Jancis Milburga: "Verily!" Claire Nyhmidu: "Hm, I wonder what I could teach Verus in return for what he's teaching me... I feel like teaching him to get me ores would just be free manual labour..." Denz De'bayle laughs at Claire Nyhmidu. Jancis Milburga answers quickly, "I have never had someone I have taught before be as committed and work as intensely. He is not very good at it, but that will change." Verus Inanis: "It's not like everything's an exchange, Claire. I'm happy to teach what I know without asking for anything in return. You give me much simply by being patient with me and trying your all." Claire Nyhmidu lifts a hand to fidget with the frames of her glasses and how they're positioned on the bridge of her nose, a faint blush gracing her cheeks, "Well still..." Jancis Milburga smiles at the pair across the table unabashed. Denz De'bayle: There is no price on knowledge... Or some other quote about learning Jancis will say. Denz De'bayle grins tauntingly at you. Your eyes grow wide with awe upon seeing Denz De'bayle. You beam at Denz De'bayle. Claire Nyhmidu chuckles, "Well, that's good to know. I also do hope we haven't kept you two too long." Jancis Milburga bows her head, "You said it far better than anything I have read could, love." Jancis Milburga: "After us keeping you? That is a silly thing to hope you have not done, if I can be so bold to say that. We should not tarry too long. There is news to be ready for. Cake to try and see how well it came out." Claire Nyhmidu: "Well, I do hope this news is good and that the cake has turned out. I'll have to ask Astrelle to make me one... though I still find it strange she was the one to make it." Denz De'bayle: A Heavensturn cake she was making with a friend of hers in celebration. Denz De'bayle: That friend also mentioned something related to the lanterns we lit last year.

Claire Nyhmidu: "Oh I see. Well, it's good to hear she had someone over too. I worry for her sometimes..." Claire said, a small frown on her face. "I also insist on paying for this, so worry not for sitting any gil on the table." Denz De'bayle: Are you sure? I bought an excessive amount of food. Denz De'bayle fails to understand Claire Nyhmidu. Claire Nyhmidu: "Perfectly fine." Verus Inanis: "I don't advise arguing. I've tried and lost." He laughed softly. Claire Nyhmidu: "Numerous times." Jancis Milburga looks back and forth, clearly outmatched. Denz De'bayle sighes, rubbing a hand to his tattoo'd forehead. "As you say, my lady." He gets up slowly, stretching out his limbs and looking to Jancis as she left her seat. Claire Nyhmidu: "I do appreciate you two taking some time out to talk. It's been a while. Let's try not to make it that long again." Claire said with a laugh. You bow courteously to Claire Nyhmidu. Denz De'bayle: Indeed. I can't say I'm sorry enough for that. The season has been as harsh as it has been kind. Claire Nyhmidu: "It's understandable, you've more important things on your mind and I'm at as much fault for not visiting." Jancis Milburga: "That I could make such a promise, as well. Regardless of when. I hope you both are happy and safe and you find new things together that ease your heart of the old." Verus Inanis pulled himself out of his seat, rising to his feet with a small nod. "It's been a real pleasure to get to know you both." He said with a small smile before offering Claire his hand to help her up if she wanted. Jancis Milburga smiles up at Verus, "As you, Lo- ... Verus." Claire Nyhmidu takes the helping hand, standing and moving next to Verus, "Of course. Stay safe you two with wherever your brother may lead you toward." Denz De'bayle: Aye, sir Verus. You as well. Denz De'bayle looks to Claire. "Thank you, my lady. If Astrelle does not do it first, I'll send word to you once all has been remedied." Claire Nyhmidu: "I appreciate it, thank you." Jancis Milburga goes for Denz's hand. "May I walk you home?" Denz De'bayle looks to Jancis with a slightly surprised face. "... Of course, my lady. I do believe we are going in the same direction anyhow." Looking back up at the pair, he waved in a farewell before heading out from the restaurant. Jancis Milburga: "Good night!" Claire Nyhmidu: "Goodnight, you two."

Bestie, you're so right. I hope you won't mind me essentially pasting our conversation here:

- The gang decides to get dinner together one evening after practice. And because, to quote Erzsébet, "the more the merrier", they invite a few more of their friends.

- Like François and Gilbert.

Lovino: "Ugh, yes Antonio, your annoying friends are exactly what I needed in my life right now."

Lukas: "Gilbert and Mathias are very much the antidote to a relaxed evening."

Mathias: "Gilbert's coming with us? Sweet!"

- The Nordics invite Emil, but are surprised when he shows up without his boyfriend.

Emil: "I'm only here because Lukas bribed me with free food. Of course I won't bring my boyfriend along, he doesn't need to know what embarassing stuff you get up to in your free time these days! I didn't want to wake up single tomorrow!"

(Bonus: Emil ends up talking about birds with Gilbert.)

- A nice side effect of François tagging along is that Lovino and Michele bond over how much they hate the French.

Michele: „Ugh, half the wine card is French wine, what a nightmare.”

Lovino: “You tell me.”

Both of them look at François and smirk pleased when he’s pissed off. Smirk/Smile stays when they drink some GOOD wine, from Noto or Napoli.

Lovino: “Cin cin, cugino.”

Michele: “Salute.”

- As Riva said, Gilbert shows up when he SHOULD be babysitting Kugelmugel and Sealand. Naturally, Roderich is less than thrilled, but Gilbert shuts him down quickly:

"Yes, I'm a fucking idiot and left the two of them all alone at home - I asked Lutz and Feli to look after them, you dimwits."

- Antonio also has Opinions about the babysitting situation.

Antonio: "You should have just brought the little ones along! I’m sure they would love it!"

Lovino: "Just because you dragged me to every kind of age-inappropriate ‘meeting’ you had with Gilbert and Francis when I was little doesn’t mean the micronations should have to live through the same kind horror!"

Roderich whispering to Erzsébet: "Should I have a talk with Antonio about what he brought Lovino along to? I know I was by far not a a perfect parental figures for Feli but.. what was my ex-husband doing back then??"

Lovino: "It's not the 1700s anymore, you can't just take kids to skeezy dive bars and expect them to grow up perfectly fine!"

Antonio: "You did."

Lovino: "Uh-huh, yeah, perfectly fine, what a well-fucking-adjusted individual I am. Look at this dickhead" - throws an arm around Michele - "you didn't even hang around much and he's completely fucked in the head."

Michele: "I don't know what you're doing with Antonio later, so speak for yourself when it comes to being fucked in the head. To fuck something up, someone would have had to show up and no one's really ever been interested in doing something for their taxes and grain for the past 3000 years."

Lovino: "Oh yeah, so that's why you're just waiting for people to do all the work. Pick you up and take you. Cu' pigghi un turco è so, veru, Michè? You're always on your knees praying these weeks, it'd be so much easier to get this over with by doing something else on your knees."

Michele: "I'm sorry, Antonio never taught me that gospel, Lovino."

Roderich to Antonio: "And that is why you can't take children here!"

"Cu' pigghi un turco è so, veru, Michè?" means "Who catches a Turk, holds him, right, Michè?". It's a Sicilian proverb, which either must have its roots either in the Habsburg-Ottoman Wars or stems from the time of Arab Sicily and had a little make-over in the shared cultural conscience after the Habsburg-Ottoman Wars. It means that if one has control over a situation, one shouldn't let that control slip. (What is implied here is if you let the Turk go, he will catch you).

(Sadık is seriously confused by this point whether Lovino is just taunting Michele or trying to wingman for him).

- Discourse after too many bottles of wine have been downed:

Feliks: "If Leopold sees you like mom and dad .... does that mean Erzsì is a milf?"

Gilbert: "Most of us are, like, old enough and had to take care of kids at some point. So what I am saying is that I am definitely a Dilf."

Lovino: "For you to be a dilf, someone would want to fuck you, so that's a hard no."

François and Antonio:

Erzsébet finds Feliks original statement rip-roaringly hilarious and continues to call Roderich a "dilf" for the rest of the evening.

Roderich (whispering): "Could you please for the love of god stop calling me that?"

Erzsébet: "But you are a dad and I do want to fu-"

Roderich scrambles to cover her mouth with his hand.

- This time, Mohammed said yes when Herakles and Sadık asked if he wanted to join them. Relevant because:

Sadık: "Ugh, your [Erzsì] taste really has gone to shit in the last centuries. And if anyone at this table is a Dilf, it's for sure me."

Herakles: "Your old man delusions are showing for sure."

Mohammed: "Next grandpa's going to tell us about the war again."

Both: -chuckle-

Sadık: "Oh, you fucking brats -"

The Hetalia "Cell Block Tango" AU/Scenario

This idea left my brain last saturday and, as usual, has already completely spun out of control two days later. Much thanks to Riva (@fireandiceland) for their open ear and grandiose input, all of the following bullshit would not have been possible without them.

This is essentially an update to this post about a "Cell Block Tango" Performance for Hetalia ships that at some point could be construed as partner exercising foreign rule over the other. We've talked about it as a show that the countries put on for fun, so it's not really an AU. We're here to be horny and have fun, not to be dramatic and edgy, okay. (Or at least not "actual murder" dramatic).

Here's the list of the couples and their corresponding parts that we settled on. (I'll use the names of the characters from "Chicago" & their iconic little cue).

Liz/Pop - SuFin, with Tino as Liz. The ship was Riva's suggestion and I like them for this part not only because the triviality of the murder motive suits their domestic vibe, but the violent solution fits Tino's wilder/more darker side that sleeps under that friendly exterior.

Annie/Six - Spamano, with Lovino as Annie. Look, Riva agreed that loose lover Antonio seems plausible, I think poisoning is a good way to murder for Lovino and I also. Really. Just love the image of the "deathkiss" and then Lovino kicking Antonio two meters across the stage. And I am sure that Antonio feels the same way as I do.

June/Squish - DenNor, with Lukas as June. I mostly settled on them because I can see Matthias be somewhat possessive and I can see him thoroughly excited for the choreography. (Maybe also for the fact that he gets to wear no shirt). Riva also said that the scenario itself and the ambiguity about whether or not June actually cheated meshes well with Lukas' more elusive nature.

Hunyak/Uh-Uh - LietBel, with Natalya as Hunyak. (Natalya? Natasha? I'm sorry if I misremembered her name, use whatever floats your boat). We both agreed that we needed Natalya in this, but I couldn't quite find a ship with her quickly that worked well with my original definition of Empire/Territory. Giving her Hunyak's innocent part solves that problem, subverts her often arguably pretty meh canon/fanon interpretations and she gets to have a beautiful dance number with Toris. Toris, who is just really happy for his girlfriend and resigned between the hotblooded, horny chaos that is the rest :).

Velma/Cicero - TurGre, with Herakles as Velma. I thought the cheating situation suited them, as I have a weakness for Herakles being Sadık's favourite, but certainly not only bedfellow at all times and the intensity of the rage is one Herakles well-deserves (if only for show these days). Plus, their performance required a third person and lemme tell you, they do not lack options in my brain. I considered Mohammed (Egypt) at first, but then thought he'd probably politely decline but would surely love to watch the show for "moral support". So instead I went for my Sicily OC Michele as Veronica, because mom said it's my turn on the self-indulgence machine.

Mona/Lipschitz - AusHun, with Erzsébet as Mona. I was sold at the "a real artistic guy, sensitive" part (even though Roderich is rather a musician than a painter) and Riva pointed out that the cheating also could be a great reference to the Habsburg marriage politics.

Further Thoughts (& Thots) for this under the cut, because I knew if I had this post uncut on my dash, I'd murder someone too:

- Mads is really excited about the choreography until he realizes that he has to basically throw half a bridge and hold it for most of Natalya's part. Mads: "Oh. So I gotta keep this up for the whole number now?" Lukas: "Quit whining ..." One of the others: "What, is the viking already folding?" Mads: "Pfft, as if, no problem for me!" He looks up at Lukas. "Besides, the view from down here isn't that bad either." Lukas threateningly lifts his foot with dangerously high-heeled boot. Mads: 'Don't say Step on me, don't say Step on me, don't say - Ah crap, I already did, didn't I?' Practice has to be paused and Natalya chews them out for ruining her practice!

- As Riva put it and I then expanded upon:

How we imagine Hetalia Cell Block Tango: Intriguing, dark, erotic.

How it actually is: Antonio, Mathias, Berwald, Sadık about to cream their pants while Lovino, Lukas, Tino, Herakles live their dreams. Natalya fighting everyone who makes a single wrong step during her part of the performance, Toris trying to calm her down. Erzsébet pulling Roderich off stage to do a private tango. Ex-Imperial dick measuring contests between Antonio, Sadık and Roderich, although the latter of course tries to not to get dragged into any thing so undignified. However, there are still ties with Antonio and also, a bitch (Roderich) may not start a fight, but a bitch is sure going to end one! Or at least attempt to do so. Endless South Italian Bickering, because Lovino and Michele may get on marginally better than Lovino does with Feliciano, but unlike Feli, Michè pays back in kind.

- Here's my two cents on the nature of the horniness of the "murdered lovers": Antonio and Sadık are unapologetically gawking and can't imagine anything better than being 'mistreated' by their darling. Being kicked across, shoved nearly off the stage is part of the fun and they don't hide it. Rest in rip everyone else who has to witness this. Matthias tries to half-heartedly hide how turned on he his, but as we saw above, he isn't very good at it. Maybe it also just looks like he's trying to hide it because he is North European after all, so it looks tame next to the two other horndogs. Berwald's extremely flustered, which is either clear as daylight to everyone around him or he tries so hard to stay 'professional' that his hands shake and he can barely talk. (Which I'd personally find hilarious when contrasted with Antonio one number over). Roderich acts as if he isn't as affected, but his façade also cracks often enough. He's got it just as bad as everyone else for his Erzsì, but he doesn't want to show it in front of other people.

- I also wrote a Minific yesterday, mostly concerned with Michele being asked to participate & some bitching between him and Lovino. If I find the time, I'll clean it up tonight and post it some time.

That's it! Thank you for reading and if you any additions, I would love to hear it (and I am sure Riva would love so, too!). I'd also love it if you wanted to share any fanart, fanfic or anything else based on this - even if you just take the basic premise and change things from how I described them because you think something else works better for you.

Forbidden (part 1)

Character: Park Jimin x reader, Kim Taehyung x reader Genre: Fantasy,Angst, Fluf, King AU

prologue/ part 1/ part 2

a/n: Y/N means your name

Sinopsis: Once upon a time, in a land far far away lived a king who had everything. Everything but a woman to love. He lived in a big castle with his two nephew and four brothers. He loved them dearly and lived happily and in peace. But as time passed by, he couldn’t help but feel lonely. That’s why he decided one day to find a wife. A woman who was beautiful and good enough to be queen and his lover. And he did find her, but… We all know that forced love is never going to survive. This is story about love that was never meant to be. And about love that was destined but forbidden.

Today weather was really nice. It helped me in finding some herbs i needed. Also i found lot of mushrooms and berries. I was resting a bit before going in city to sell them to merchant. The forest in which i lived was peaceful and absolutely breathtaking. I always loved this place. Just by sitting here made me feel calm and relaxed. The sun was getting lower. It should be 2 hours after noon. I don’t understan how could i forget the watch at home. I stood up and looked around me. I had no idea where i was. When that realisation hit me i started walking towards the sun. The sun is setting behind castle in the city so if i folow it i should be alright. Right? Just as i was starting to panic a bit after i came across second dead end, an owl landed on the nearby rock. I recognize her right away, since that was Night, a pet of my friend who lived in the same forest as me. “Night, did Sola sent you? Can you help me get out of here?” Night started flying low and i folowed her in fast pace. Soon we were in front of little, cozy looking house. Night flew in the house trough window and i knocked on the door and entered the house. “Well well... Look what an owl brought us.” Tall woman with dark purple hair and dark black eyes smiled and me. That was Sola, my chidhood friend. She was the best and oldest friend i had. We were together since i can remember. I collapsed on the nearby chair. Sola handed me a glass of water. I smiled at her. “Thanks for saving my lost butt there. I really thought that i was going to sleep in the middle of forest.” I chuged water in one go. I was exausted. “No problem, what are friends for anyway.” She winked and sat down beside me. “What time is it? I have to go to sell what i picked today.” “It’s half past one. Don’t worry you have enough time. Take a break sometimes.” “Yeah well i can’t. This is what brings bread on the table. I can’t starve you know. Unless you have some potion for me to not feel hungry?” I looked at her with hope in my eyes. “Yeah well i don’t.” She mimicked me. Sola was enchantress and she makes best potions i know of. She can make someone to fall in love as soon that person see the one who ordered a potion. Or spell. Spells are more complicated and she needs more energy for them. But she is getting better and better every day. I stood up and moved towards the door. “I should get going. The sooner i do this the sooner i go back home. And i am getting little hungry.” “You could come to eat with me later. We can combine what we both have. Does that sounds good?” She held my hand and smiled at me. When she smiled at me like that i couldn’t say no. “Okay why not..” I gave in. She giggled and ran towards the kitchen. She came back with container with water and piece of bread. “I can’t let my best friend starve and faint on the way, now can i?” I hugged her before she saw a little tears forming in my eyes. “I know you are crying Y/N.” She giggled and patted my back. “You always save me Sola. Thank you.” I hugged her tight before turning around and leaving the house. “Have a nice trip! And don’t talkto strangers!” She yeled to me. “Hahaha ok i won’t MOM!” I yelled back to her. I was walking trough forest for a few minutes before ariving on the begginig of the big capital city. Sola’s house was much closer to the city than mine. I walked around the city with my basket in one and my bag in other hand. I always held my bag tight when i was in the city. Pickpockets are all around us. I arrived in the shop i sell my herbs to. “Oh hello Y/N! What do you have for me today?” Mr.Kim,who was owner of the shop, smiled to me. “Well i have lot of mushrooms and berries. Also i found some herbs that are good for tea. They are acctualy very rare in these parts so i think you can sell them for the good price.” I showed him herbs i had with me and he nodded approvingly. “As always you are reliable. You are very good herbalist you know. You should go back to that job. You can earn more that just selling these herbs to me.” He handed me good amount of money. Well i supose this day was getting better. “No i decided long ago that i will never be herbalist again. You are very good to me so why would i quit this job hehe.” I smiled sweetly to him. “Well i will get going then. Thank you sir! I will see you tomorrow.” I bowed my head to him and moved on to the food shop. I will surprise Sola and buy her her favorite sweet bread. Streets were busy and there were people everywhere. I smiled as i watched this scenery. I rememberd my life in this city when i was little. Those were good times. I started walking and in that moment two man on horses passed after me. I turned around to look at it and made eyecontact with one of the riders. His eyes were dark brown and for a second i stood there obscene. The horse moved on and eyecontact was broken. Wow that was... weird. Those eyes had such a strong aura in them. That must have been someone from the castle. Those two man looked noble and their horses were very beautiful. I shook it away and continued down the road.

After breakfast, Jin and I prepared for the trip to the forest outside the city to visit the enchantress. I was still little suspicious but decided to give it a try. We will ride horses to her house. i refused carriage because that would draw too much attention. On the streets of the city were a lot of people. Some were selling their goods, others were looking for something to buy, and there was people who simply enjoyed this scenery. Just like i did. ‘This is my country.’ I thought and smiled. People seemed happy. Jin was patiently waiting for me. “You know brother you can enjoy this sight more while i go and buy some herbs for my tea. What do you think about that? The shop is nearby so you can wait for me there.” he smiled to me. “Sure why not.” Jin was my oldest brother and he always understood me the best. Even though throne rightfuly belonged to him, he didn’t wanted it. He just wanted to travel and enjoy his life as a traveler. My other older brothers were encouraged by his decision and said to father, who was king then, that they only wanted normal life, without worries as a king. They said that i should be the one to take throne as i always wanted. True my wish was to someday be a king but it was surprising to step on the throne so suddenly. I accepted the offer right away, because i knew that this may be my only chance and i really wanted to help my brothers live their life as they wanted. I knew them better than anyone and i knew what they wanted. Once Namjoon told me “You know Jimin we may have never said this to you but we are really grateful for what you did. We promise to stay always with you and to aid you if you ever needed our help.” I was so touched when i heard that. I love my brothers so much and even 100 thrones can’t replace them. Just as i was looking around waiting for Jin i noticed a girl looking in my direction. We made eyecontact and i was mesmerised by the colour of her eyes. They had colour of emerald and they were clear and big. I had a feeling they were drowing me in. Just then I heard Jin beside me. “-er...brother...Jimin!” I snapped my head towards him and looked at him. “We should go.” “Ah...yes let’s go.” We started moving towards the forest and i couldn’t stop thinking about that girl i just saw. We were now riding trought forest and after not so long we saw a little wood house. It looked very cozy. Maybe because of those flower beds around. It seemed like those beautiful flowers grow on that place only. Maybe she used some spell, she is a enchantress after all. In that moment tall woman with purple hair stepped out of the house. She looked at us and bowed down. “Welcome your highnesses. I have been expecting you” The house was very cute from inside. There was lot of flowers and books. Also i noticed few glass bottles here and there. I suppose those were for the potions. “So how exactly did you now we were coming and who we are?” I turned my head toward her with stern look on my face. “Well as you already know i’m enchantress. My abilities allow me to simply know some things. I really don’t know how to explain my powers to you any other way. And beside my little Night noticed two guests entering the forest.” Little owl landed on the table next to her. “You see when i agreed to enter this forest and live here, i gave my word to protect it with all i had. So i always know when someone is coming or even lost in my home. I also know that you are veru suspicious of my abilities and that you are of royal blood. Or should i be precise, that you are King Jimin and prince Jin.” She looked at both of us. “To prove that i have abilities you need i’m going to tell you one fact that not many know.” She looked at my eyes and smiled. “You have someone who is very sick at home, don’t you?” I looked at her with my eyes wide. How... I looked at Jin and he seemed little surprised and amused at the same time. He never averted his eyes from the girl.es. “And i also know that that person is a child...” She looked at me again but now there was compassion in her eyes. “Oh, i’m very sorry. It seams that you and your brothers cherish her dearly.” “Ho-...how do you know about Yumi?” “You see it’s just that i can sense and see aura around you. Aura that is strongest is usualy from persons home. So i can clearly sense sicknes around you. I’m very sorry. It seems that she was ill for some time now.” “Yes indeed. Doctors simply can’t find cure for her yet.” Jin spoke suddenly. “But you aren’t here for that, right?” “Right. We want you to be matchmaker for our King.” Jin smiled widely. Encantress was a bit surprised. “So if you want a woman for yourself my King, then she must be something special. After all marrying you means that she will be a queen.” “Yes and that means i need woman which will have good heart, and of course, she needs to be beautful.” “What about maners?” She asked. “That can be learned in the castle. I need someone who will be my life companion.” I was determined now. This woman... She knows her job. At least that’s impression i’m getting. “I see...” She was quiet for few moments. Then she lifted her head and smiled at us. “In that case i know just the right person for you.” “Already?” “Yes! I recently heard about girl who lived in this forest just like me. I never came accros her though, but i don’t think that it will be problem to meet her. As i said I know everything in this forest. I heard that she was herbalist not so long ago, and that she was in fact good one. But unfortunaly she quit the job after her parents died in fire 4 years ago. She is alone since then. I also heard from my little Night that she is very beautiful and kind hearted. I think that she will be right for you because of it.” She smiled kindly. “But you also have something else on you mind as well, am i right?” I looked at Jin with confused face. Girl smiled. “Of course. As i mentoned she was a good herbalist and it would be perfect if she could find cure for that little girl we spoke of earlier. That’s what you call killing two birds with one stone.” ”And how exactly do we know you aren’t a con artist?” I was still suspicios. ”Hmm well... Ah yes! When i was searching a bit about that girl who came to live in my home, i found a old friend from the city. She is high class lady and she was very ill few years ago. She was on a verge of death. Doctors were unable to find reason for her sickness and with that, a cure. But that girls father, who was very famous herbalist, came with his little daughter to see the lady. Untill then he only gave her a tea for her to stop coughing, but culdn’t find a real cure. That was just easying her pain, not acctualy stoping it. But one day he brought his little daughter with him. I heard she picked some flowers from that lady’s garden and got premission to bring it to her. She tought that flowers will make her cheer up but when lady took them she started coughing like crazy. Girl saw that and took flowers right away from her. She smeled them and realised that the flowers were poisoned. She told that to her father who studied flowers right away and soon found an antidote. Not to mention that she helped in making it. If you don’t trust me then ask that lady yourself. You might know her. Her name is Hanah Duchess of Kadelia. “ ”But that’s...” ”That’s our aunt. I do remember when she was that sick and she said that a little girl saved her life. We didn’t really believe her. But now...” For some reason i trusted this person. She seemed honest. “In that case contact that girl for us and explain her the situation.” I stood up and walked towards the door. “And of course not a word about this. If you do your part of the deal then you will be rewarded handsomely.” Jin walked up to the girl and kissed her hand. She smiled at him and bowed down. Sometimes i really don’t know if he’s a real gentleman or just a playboy. He clearly liked that girl. She was beautiful. With that we left the small house and the forest. “Jimin.” I heard him say. “I really hope this will work.” “I really hope it will as well brother.”

You: ok....

You: interesting

Stranger: does fine arts involves poems?or not?

You: yeah

You: fine art is about poetry sometimes

Stranger: actually, what i really wanted to get was english literature

Stranger: but there were no such course here,it was just a subject

You: awww man

You: that sucks

Stranger: i do have a lot of written poems

Stranger: yeah..

Stranger: it sucks

You: you should try to publish them

Stranger: i tried letting others see it, but they just stole the poem from me and told others that they are the ones who made them

You: wow

Stranger: yeah

Stranger: i was really pissed

You: was that an official publishing company or people online?

Stranger: and my poems are too scary for others to see or read

Stranger: personally

Stranger: it was my classmate in high school who did it

You: ah

Stranger: i write poems in my notebook

You: i don't think a publisher would do that

Stranger: i let them read it,what I didn't know was they started to copy it without my permission

You: oh well i guess maybe they'll get found in your notebook and get famous after you die

Stranger: yeah

Stranger: people get known and remembered when they die

You: i'm crossing my fingers on that one

You: cause i don't think i'd enjoy being famous while alive

Stranger: it's too much work when you get famous while you're alive,i agree with that

Stranger: and fame changes people

You: if i ever get famous i wanna be like a d-lister or something

You: just enough to stroke my ego everynow and then, not so much it's a hasstle

Stranger: yeah,i get that

Stranger: just for once in while but not everyday

You: yeah

Stranger: but sometimes,you just can't get enough of dreaming that you're famous

You: daydreaming is like an actual hobby for me at this pint

You: point

Stranger: it is for me too

Stranger: when i don't do anything, i day dream

You: ok can i ask you something?

Stranger: yeah,sure

You: i want to know your opinion

You: cause i've been daydreaming a bit about dragons lately

Stranger: game of thrones?

Stranger: hahahah

You: no

You: not like that

Stranger: okay

You: hear me out

You: i mean

Stranger: okay

Stranger: sorry for interupting

You: what if it was like the typical princess in a tower with a dragon story

You: but you end up with the dragon

Stranger: oohhh

Stranger: does the dragon become a prince?

Stranger: or not?

You: nah, the dragon kicks the princes ass

Stranger: it would be too cliched it the dragon was aprince

You: and the dragon has a sexy human form

Stranger: you're toying with me,aren't you?

You: no

Stranger: seriously?

You: i really daydream about this sometimes

Stranger: the dragon kicks the princess' ass?

Stranger: what the?

You: no

Stranger: oohhh

You: the dragon kicks the prince's ass

Stranger: sorry

You: not the pirncess

Stranger: i misunderstood

Stranger: yeah

Stranger: actually ,that be more realistic

Stranger: how come a human can defeat a dragon with just a petty sword,right?

You: exactly

Stranger: that would be nice

You: and then you end up living happily ever after with your dragon boyfriend/girlfriend

Stranger: but the question is,how does the dragon end up with the princess?

You: the dragon kindnaps the princess usually

You: but maybe that's creey here?

Stranger: was the dragon instructed to kidnap the princess or no?

You: maybe the dragon just did it cause he wanted to?

You: that's bad i know

Stranger: because the dragon loves her or just wants to eat her?

You: the dragon likes her

You: wnats to protect her from the evil prince

Stranger: then they should have a back story

Stranger: a back story that the dragon and princess met before

You: childhood friends?

Stranger: how about the dragon was the last of their kind?

Stranger: and then it was hidden in a secret dungeon

You: :O

You: poor baby drgon :(

Stranger: the princess accidentally finds that dungeon and then, voila,childhood friends

You: yep

You: when he escapes he takes her with him

Stranger: that would make sense rather than the dragon just roaming around

Stranger: yeahh

Stranger: he took her with him because the prince just wanted the throne and not her

You: the prince was like joffrey?

Stranger: and the prince has a plan to kill her eventually

Stranger: joffrey was a sadist

Stranger: let's try, the prince was nice when there are others but is joffrey when no one is around

You: yeah

You: yeah that's good i like it

Stranger: like a hypocrite prince

You: she also knew the pince growing up

Stranger: yeah

Stranger: and is scared of him but the princess' parents doesn't know about him

You: mmmm

You: now how does the dragon confess to her?

Stranger: that would be tricky

Stranger: when the dragon doesn't even speak human

You: well i guess he'll have to use... other ways

Stranger: what specificaly?

Stranger: would you enlighten me?

You: ...with his body

Stranger: would it be compatible?

You: yeah i mean

You: he has a more human form that he is sometimes

You: but when he's in human form he still has a tail and yellow eyes

Stranger: he'd look like a devil

Stranger: in an anime

You: maybe im into that

Stranger: yeahh

Stranger: i know what you mean

Stranger: or the princess becomes a dragon too

You: how would that work?

Stranger: the prince' mother was a witch,and then they cursed her

You: like he bites her and she becomes part dargon too?

You: ohhhh

You: ok

Stranger: it would be too cliched if the dragon becomes human

You: but i feel like if she becomes a dragon then we are just writing shrek right now

Stranger: i like the donkey dragons there

You: maybe they just get it on despite their differences?

Stranger: i can't imagine that

Stranger: no one can,ever

You: but when i say dragon i mean like maybe smaug

You: not the one from shrek

Stranger: i was thinking about the dragons from game of thrones

You: whatever floats your boat man

Stranger: was the dragon a pterodactyl?that would be awkward

You: woah.. dinosaurs in the story now??

Stranger: does it look like that?

Stranger: yeah,for a change

You: a dinosaur gangbang?

Stranger: what kind of princess are we talking about?

Stranger: that's no princess

You: she is hw she is

Stranger: what kind of parents does she have to be like that? XD

You: carzy scientist ones

You: that bring back dinosaurs from the dead

Stranger: this story is getting a different path

You: yeah this is like a jurassic park porno now

You: i bet one exists

Stranger: like chris pratt getting gangbanged?

You: you know he wants it

Stranger: the title would be "Raptors gangbanged Chrsi Pratt, and he likes it"

You: "blonde hunk get taken by a brontasaurus"

Stranger: that would get a million views in a second

You: so... why aren't we making this then

Stranger: let's do this!

You: we could be millionaires

Stranger: i agree

Stranger: we could be richer than bill gates because of this

You: ok so which one of us is gonna do the "bringing dinos back to life part"?

You: and which of us should be the film director

Stranger: you should be the film director

You: yeah makes sense

Stranger: i'll do the other one

You: you study a kind of sciene and i study art

Stranger: we make a good combination

You: but in all seriousness i do wanna make out with a dragon

You: no shame

Stranger: really?

You: yeah

You: in human form though

Stranger: i wanna make out with a devil XD

Stranger: either will do

You: watch what he does with those horns

Stranger: i could latch myself onto them without worries

You: see... we're all secretly into this stuff really

Stranger: yeah

You: most just don't admit it

Stranger: couldn't have said it any better

You: i think maybe i just like the idea of being with a supernatural being

Stranger: like bella and edward?

You: no

You: i have way more personality than her

Stranger: true

Stranger: no doubt about that

You: and i wouldn't wanna be with a guys that was so boring and old fashioned

Stranger: yeahh

You: i like openminded peoplpe

Stranger: not vampires

Stranger: they're boring

You: they're all depressing and shit

Stranger: yeah

Stranger: they all have that deepest and darkest secret shit going all around them

You: yeah f that

Stranger: a shapeshifter would be good to have

You: oooo YES

Stranger: yeahhhh

You: i didn't even think of that

Stranger: i just thought of it

Stranger: he can be whatever youo want even a dragon or a devil

You: think of all the possibilities

You: unlinited dicks

Stranger: dicks everywhere

You: just a giant ball of dicks

Stranger: that would be pretty plesaurable

Stranger: pleasurable

Stranger has disconnected.

You: you'd just go to sit down on a chair

You: and it's be his lap

Stranger: and he'll do the rest for ya

You: it works cause it's simpple

Stranger: definitely

Stranger: how's it going for the dragon/dinosaur gangbang?

You: well... can't find any actors who could take a giant dragon dick

You: so not well

Stranger: yeah

Stranger: that'd be too hard to cast

You: but the cinematographer ir great

Stranger: yeah,the plot is very easy

Stranger: just a princess getting gangbanged

You: so pterodactyl is like on her? and there a brachoisaurus watching

Stranger: and the dragon?

Stranger: so it's a foursome?

You: i feel like to dragon is almost too sweet to be involved

Stranger: yeah

You: i feel like the dragon really loves her

Stranger: he genuinely loves the princess to do that

Stranger: so dinosaurs kidnapped the princess from the dragon and then gangbanged her

You: yeah

Stranger: we really do make a good team

You: and after they have their way with her the dragon comes to rescue

Stranger: but it was too late because she was ravished thoroughly XD

You: you get me

Stranger: ravished being the word XD

You: what if she gets pregnant and has dino babies

Stranger: half dino half human

Stranger: that'd be new

You: i imagine dragon wouldn't be very happy

Stranger: he'd go berserk

You: he's posessive over her

You: tries to make her get an abortion

Stranger: what if the dragon was too late in rescuing her and other form found her, the centaurs

Stranger: we should involve everyone in this

You: omg she just get pounded by all the creatures in the land

Stranger: that'd be unfair for them if we didn't

Stranger: she literally became a sex slave in an instant

Stranger: she should've stayed with the prince

You: and killed him in his sleep

You: and then been queen

Stranger: yeah

Stranger: that'd be an easy way

Stranger: what a foolish princess we have

You: luckily we are not so foolish

Stranger: getting attracted with the size of that dragon XD

Stranger: luckily

You: well who can resist ;)

Stranger: yeahhh

Stranger: true

You: ah... if you could choose anyone to look like the dragon (in human form) who would it be?

Stranger: a man with a hard facial features definitely

You: yeah

Stranger: a passerby while a princess is getting gangbanged? XD

You: awwww

Stranger: and now greek mythology is getting involve

Male Transformation Blog: “Step By Step”

A longer story by “Bill Rowan”. A slow start, but there’s lots of details and pretty sweet love story. Made some changes to the pronouns to suit my taste, but all credits still go to the original writer! /Verus

This is Brad in a picture he posted when he was running for senior class president. He is the hottest and most popular jock in school and I’m absolutely in love with him or should I say I am absolutely in love with his body and wish it were mine? Unfortunately one person can’t become another, no matter how much a person wants that to happen. Ah but I look at Brad and all I can do is wish so hard… so hard I had that body.

One day I am walking down the hall and not really looking out where I am going when I bump into Brad. My heart nearly stops when my eyes look upon that perfect model of young maleness and all I can do is hope that he doesn’t notice how bothered I am getting.

“So…so…sorry Brad.” I manage to stutter out, just too awed to say anything else.

“Watch where you’re going next time dweeb.” Glaring at me, he walks away laughing with his friends. I guess I will be the butt of his clique’s jokes for the next thousand years or so.

Leonard helps me to my feet. He and Brad used to be a couple, and according to everyone at school they were the perfect couple until douchebag Brad decided to cheat on him with one of the quarterbacks. He didn’t deserve that as he is one of the nicest people I have met. He will talk to me pleasantly instead of making fun of me.

“Are you alright, man?” His voice has a genuine ring of concern in it and oh how I wish he was in love with me instead of Brad. I guess that is one more reason I am so envious of Brad and want to be him. I would never hurt Leonard’s feelings or break his heart.

“I’m fine. Thank you.” I can feel my face becoming hot with embarrassment. I must be sixteen shades of red and I keep my eyes focused on the floor for fear that he will see the longing in my eyes. If only you were mine…

“You know Sam that you are so much nicer than Brad. You really shouldn’t envy him so much.” What? How could he possibly know how I feel about Brad? He laughs.

“Don’t worry. Your secret is safe with me. In fact, maybe we can do something about that desire you have. Come over to my house later, say around seven. See you then.” Did he just invite me to his house? Suddenly I’m walking on air, my day having just brightened by infinite degrees just from him asking me to his house. Wait… is he playing some sort of joke on me? Why would someone like Leonard who could have any guy he wanted easily, ask a nobody like me to his house?

The rest of the day drags as I can’t wait to go to his house, even if he is just playing a joke on me. But somehow I can’t see him as the type of person to be that cruel. I don’t think Brad will ever know just how much he lost when he broke that handsome and sweet boy’s heart.

Seven comes and I am standing at his doorstep. His house is a very old Victorian style mini-mansion. At Halloween it is the creepiest house on the street but today in fading sun of fall it is quite magnificent and not scary at all. I ring the doorbell. When the door opens Leonard is standing there smiling at me.

“Come in, Sam. My parents have gone out for the evening so we have the house to ourselves.” He ushers me inside and I lose my breath as I behold the grandeur.

“Thanks Leonard. You have a beautiful home.” How dorky does that sound?

He laughs and his face lights up with a most handsome smile.

“Please call me Leon. Leonard is just so strange sounding all the time, especially from a friend like you.” He considers me his friend? Be still my beating heart!

“Come on, man. Let’s go up to my room. I have a surprise for you.” Can this day get any better? I follow him up the stairs until we come to a door at the end of the hall. This must be his room. Dummy… of course it’s his room. Duh. He takes my hand and leads me to the biggest bed I have ever seen. “Sit.”

Me sit on his bed? My heart starts to race as he sits next to me. How can he not know I am in love with him? Maybe he does and he is just ignoring it so he won’t hurt my feelings. He would never hurt my feelings. We chat for a while until the clock in the hall strikes ten. Where has the time gone?

“Would you like something to drink? Of course you would.” He hands me a big glass of what looks like water but has a sweet taste as I eagerly gulp it down my parched throat. I guess all that talking must have dried it out. He goes over to a table and picks something up then comes back to me, handing me a black vest.

“This used to be Brad’s. Want to try it on?” Try Brad’s vest on? As kinky as that sounds I actually am quite eager to wear something so personal to my idol. I take my own shirt off, exposing my pitiful excuse of a chest, and pull the vest over my head. It is way too big for my scrawny torso and I am absolutely swimming in fabric. A strange twinge goes through my body and my little Sammy (yes, even that is little) feels very odd. Just as quickly though everything returns to normal and Leon is helping me out of Brad’s vest and on with my own shirt. He hands me the vest, now neatly folded and in a bag.

“Here take this with you.” He is giving me Brad’s vest? Why?

We walk back downstairs and he kisses me sweetly on the cheek as he sees me out the door. “See you tomorrow in school Sam. Pleasant dreams.”

I’m flabbergasted from the kiss and can barely squeak out “Thanks... Leon. Have a good night.” Can I sound any dorkier? He laughs again and closes the door as I start my way home. Brad you’re such an idiot for letting that guy get away from you.

I get home and immediately rush to my room, saying goodnight to my parents so I can check out my treasure. Brad’s vest has now become my most prized possession, not just because it is something personal of Brad’s, but because Leon gave it to me. This is a night I will long remember.

I undress and go to bed, falling asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow. Strange dreams haunt my sleep but when I wake in the morning I can’t remember any of them. It’s time to get ready for school.

I head into the bathroom to start my morning ritual: pee, brush my teeth and rinse, take a shower, and get dressed. I whip little Sammy out but something is very odd this morning. I can’t feel my hands touching my penis. Instead I am feeling very aroused as though I am stroking myself into a frenzy yet Sammy is as flaccid as he can possibly be. The feeling dissipates and I start to pee but I still can’t feel my hands on my Sammy. Is there something wrong with my dick? I start to brush my teeth and as I do so I begin to experience warmth on my body like warm water running down my body. What is happening this morning? I finish up, get dressed, and head downstairs to eat breakfast. My mom pours the oatmeal into the bowl but I’m not feeling all that hungry for some reason. In fact my stomach would probably wretch if I tried eating so I just grab my gear and head to school.

The halls are amazingly quiet this morning. Usually Brad and his buddies are holding court by their lockers before class but not today. I start to head to homeroom when Leon comes running up.

“Good morning, man. How are you feeling today?”

“Hi Leon. Okay I guess.”

“Rumor has it that Brad is out sick, something about a touch of the flu. You should have a nice day without Brad here. See you in class.” That was odd. Why would he take the time to tell me Brad wasn’t feeling well? I nearly fall as I enter the classroom. I can’t sense myself walking. Rather my legs seem like they are stretched out under some sort of covering. My body is doing very strange things today. I make it over to my chair but I still can’t tell what my legs are doing unless I look directly at them. I can tell I am sitting in the chair but I sure feel like I am lying down instead.

The day goes by somewhat normally, albeit without the usual bullying from Brad and company. Normal that is until lunchtime comes. I’ve gotten somewhat used to not feeling anything from the waist down and I can compensate for that when I walk or sit but now my torso is beginning to go numb. Well, not exactly numb but what I am feeling is beyond anything possible. I rush to the bathroom as fast as I can possibly go under the circumstances. Fortunately no one is in there and I lock the stall as I enter in. I lift up my shirt to see if there is something wrong with my stomach. Nope. Same old skinny stomach, except I am feeling tightness like rock hard abs.

I sit on the toilet to relax, hoping this sensation will pass. Instead I begin to moan. My dick is being stroked into orgasm by invisible hands and with no sign of stirring showing. Suddenly I can feel a blissful release as I spew load after load. Except when I look down I am perfectly dry, no sign of any jerk off session anywhere. Still my mind is coming off a high I have never had before in my life.

I hurry out of the bathroom and to the nurse’s office, telling her I am not feeling well and need to go home. My afternoon is mostly study halls and gym so she OKs the permission slip and I head home as quickly as I can. Fortunately no one is home at my house so I drop my books and rush upstairs to my room.

My clothes are snug against my body yet when I look down they are just as baggy as they ever are. I strip but I still feel like I am wearing very form fitting attire. Whatever shirt I sense must be so tight that it shows off the two mounds of meat on my chest… except I have no upper body definition at all! I cannot feel my own body even as I run my hands up and down my torso. From the neck down I am numb as though I have been quick frozen. My brain however is telling me a different story. It is sending impulses to nerves in a very well developed body, the body of an athlete and as I stare at myself in the mirror I get a flashing image of a body I know all too well. Just for a moment I could swear I am looking at Brad!

The doorbell rings. I can’t answer naked so I go to the window and look down. Leon is standing at my door. Has school let out already? I holler down to him to come on in and up to my room. I better find my robe fast before…

*Leon walks in the door and I am still naked.*

“Don’t worry Sam. You don’t need to be embarrassed. This will all be over soon.” Huh? What will be over soon?

He locks the bedroom door and leads me to my bed. This situation does not seem to surprise him at all, almost as if he was expecting to find me this way.

“Lay down Sam. I don’t want you to fall down when the last wave hits.” What is he going on about?

“Last wave of what?”

“-I told you yesterday that I had a surprise for you. Brad’s vest was only the beginning, a catalyst so to speak. You want to be him so very badly and I want revenge for his fling with that quarterback. We both win. In a few minutes you will completely possess Brad. You will be Brad, have his body, his knowledge, and all of his skills. But you will also have your own compassion mixed in so as Brad you will not be the jerk he is now. No one will be the wiser. I know how much you love me as well. We can be together, the perfect couple you and I. People will just think that he and I reconciled. Unfortunately when you possess Brad your body will be soulless and will die as though from a heart attack. Brad’s soul will be trapped in his own body, unable to do anything other than observe life through your eyes. Now close your eyes and sleep.”

This is all very shocking. How can someone possess another person’s body? I can’t worry about that now. I am just so sleepy. I can’t keep my eyes open. I….

“Brad! Brad wake up!” Huh? Whose voice is that? I am very disoriented and groggy. I open my eyes, only to find I am not in my own room. I turn my head towards the voice and I see Leon smiling at me. I smile back. I raise myself up so I am sitting in bed, Leon helping to support me. I feel so much heavier yet I feel an energy I have never known before. He swings my legs over the edge of the bed and helps me to stand. I am taller than him now, much taller! He guides me to a mirror where I can only gaze in amazement. The body I have longed to have for so long stares back at me. I am Brad. Leon tenderly kisses me on the lips.

“Welcome home, lover.”
