@talebytale location: outside in the yard behind the castle

the  festivities  were  going  pretty  well,  guests  from  all  around  were  meeting  &  conversing  -  in  his  name,  which  still  felt  a  little  strange.  maybe  even  overwhelming.  a  little  too  overwhelming,  so  after  hours  inside,  he  snuck  out  the  back  into  the  yard  to  get  away  from  it  all.  even  if  just  for  a  little  while.  the  sun  had  set  by  now,  so  it  was  a  little  chilly  outside,  but  not  too  cold  -  so  he  didn't  need  to  get  a  coat.

fingers  brushed  along  the  cold  rock  wall  that  took  over  when  the  thorns  &  brush  ended.  palm  flat  against  it,  letting  the  cold  wash  over  him  to  ground  him.  deep  breath.  eyes  closed,  he  held  his  breath.  one.  two.  three.  four...  eyes  snapped  open  when  wings  fluttered  behind  him  &  he  spun  around  only  to  realize..  "ah,  you."  a  crow.  "you  scared  me."  he  said  with  a  little  chuckle  sounding,  "yeah,  i  know  -  there's  a  lot  of  people  in  there.  it's  quite  fun,  i  wish  you  could  try  it."  the  crow  caws,  wings  fluttering  -  before  it  flew  off.

ari  watched  it  leave  &  sighed  softly.  sometimes  he  wished  he,  too,  could  just  fly  away.

Closed Starter for @talebytale Location: North Pole, Alaric's lodgings

The change in the sky and the timing had left Alaric drained, the travel was exhausting even if he had brought with him a full retainer of pawns to attend to him and unpack his things. The chambers already being painted to his signature color.

The blond lounged in the soft sheets, only half clothed, the cloth draped over him scandalously. "But I am too weary to go out and socialize now. Stay here and let me rest." he said with a soft whine to his voice, pleading silvery blue eyes watching to see if the other could cave to his whining.

"If I do go out I'll need to bathe and change clothes and they have hardly started to unpack my wardrobe. I am sure we can get some of those delightful elves to deliver us food."

If Maxime loved to do anything, it was talk shit with a handsome stranger like the one opposite him. He had an immediate, prevailing sense that this person was just as much of a hater as himself, and this meant he would likely enjoy conversing with them. Finally, some real company.

"If you mean ineffectual, overbearing, and pompous," Maxime begins. "Then yes, it seems our realms are quite similar in that regard. I am Maxime," he says, introducing himself with a curt nod of the head. "And it's about damned time I found someone I could talk to in this dump... so, you're from here? Is it as awful as it seems?"

The fae stood by the shadows, watching the merriment of the party-goers with disdain in their eyes. The smiles, the laughter, the dancing... It was sickening. They knew Stefan far better than most, they knew that he cared about his image far more than he let on, and thus he doubted that Stefan was being honest in his plea for peace among the realms. It was sickening, watching people fall for this lie so that Stefan could schmooze the royalty of other realms to better his position and make himself look good. It had Mal wanting to retreat back to his own castle, to be surrounded by their ravens, but he wanted to see more. To see just what Stefan was planning. So that he could crush it.

Wearing a black cloak that covered his black tunic, and a hood that was draped over his head to cover the horns that they possessed, Mal had kept to the walls and the shadows, not making their presence known. After all, this was his realm and the people - and the fae - knew who they were and just what they were capable of. The last thing he wanted was for them to point him out, to warn others of his presence there... or to be mocked for even coming in the first place.

There was someone, though, that intrigued him. A man that stood firm, a man that stood by himself - but a man that was very clearly judging the place just as Mal had been. It was enough to have the fae intrigued, intrigued enough to approach, and a small smile pulled at his lips at the other's words. "On this we can. If you ask me, this is King Stefan overcompensating for something," Mal stated coyly, the smile upon their lips genuine because if anyone knew, it was certainly Mal. After all, Stefan had asked Mal at one point during their relationship if he was able to use his magic to help him in that matter. "I take it the royals of your land are much similar?"

closed meme starter! @talebytale said " 30 mm for beaux & adam " mm & mf smut gif starters | status accepting

the castle baths had always been a point of respite for beaux, even before the curse on the residents of adam's castle had been broken. there were a fair few thing he enjoyed more than a bit of pampering, spending time with with one's own thoughts.

but if there was one person he would always share these private intricacies with, it was adam. so, when he managed to get the larger man alone, it was no surprise when a bit of intimate domesticity took a turn for the carnal, beaux's slender arms reaching upwards to twine with ease around adam's neck, their lips colliding in needy, fervent pecks that grew deeper and more languid with time.

as if their entwining limbs weren't enough of an indication, beaux took it upon himself to guide the prince's hands to his globular cheeks, naked frame beginning to press flush against adam's muscular form. beaux let his teeth catch adam's bottom lip and gave it a gentle tug, before retracting down to the flats of his feet and looking up with a smirk, daring the beast to make the next move.

where: woods | when: day time | whom: @talebytale Robin Hood

Flynn checks the map for the 5th time in as many minutes. Supposedly, the man he'd been asking about hangs out in these woods. Particularly in this area. Flynn's pretty sure the pile of rocks a few feet away is the many weeks old remnants of a campfire, but it's so cold, it's arctic.

Flynn's horse shuffles, and he pats their neck.

"It's okay," he says in a soothing voice. "I'm not mad at you. More myself for believing weeks old intel."

Crewel exuded an aura of intimidation, he knew that, but given his reputation he assumed he would have been approached more frequently, not to be the one approaching others. Odd, how all the practise in the world for social events couldn't prepare him for this, and yet throw a were-creature in front of him and all the fear in the world would evaporate around him. No, this was different.

He finished his next glass of wine, whatever number it was he was on, and grabbed another from a servant walking past. Perhaps he should finish this then go; nobody seemed to be on his wavelength, as they said. Until someone appeared by his side and started conversation.

Actual conversation.

Crewel looked the other up and down, noting the attire in question with a grin forming on his lips. "No more than me, Darling." He opened his fur coat to show nothing more than what would be considered a basic outfit in his village, white shirt, some plain pants and boots. The fur, as always, remained the most extravagant thing about him. "These sort of...soirees aren't all that common where I'm from, but we make do." He looked over the toga once more. "I assume the same where you are from?"

Where: King Stefan's castle

Open to: Anyone

The party definitely seemed to be well underway and Hercules was certainly enjoying to meet and greet a lot of people. Sure, he felt a bit overwhelmed - a lot of the things he had seen, or heard (like cars?!), were things he didn't even know could exist - but at the end of the day, he was having fun getting to meet new people. He had yet to find anyone that he could be related to, but he had a lot of brothers and sisters in Mount Olympus that could have had children in any of the realms, so he didn't think it was out of the ordinary to think that he'd be able to find someone like him.

At the very least, though, he could always just meet someone new, and he figured out that he had a pretty good conversation starter - his attire. People had been commenting on his clothing, or lack thereof given that he was wearing a toga, almost all night and so he knew he could use it as a way to break the ice. Or, at least, get a smile out of someone. "Be honest," Hercules spoke as he approached someone, holding a small glass of wine in his hand as he looked at them, a smile pulling at his lips. "How underdressed would you say that I am?"

23A - dealer's choice

[23A]

What was a king to a god? Just another play thing perhaps, and Alaric moaned as he pushed his ass into the tongue that ministered to his hole. Immaculate like every other part of his body Alaric's tight hole was pristine and looked and felt as if it had never been tainted, courtesy of his magic. The blond was unable to make any words as the God of the Underworld ate him out like he was his own treat to be devoured. Non-sensical noises filled the air as Alaric's cock stood at attention leaking a puddle under him as he was pleasured by the god.

12B - Naveen

[12B]

Making out with Naveen was ok they were both royal, it meant this was something if a meeting of kingdoms right? Even if they were not from the same realm, all the same he found his lips locked with the handsome prince's, enamored by the sweet taste and the soft supple texture. A little moan of pleasure came from him. "You are a most gifted kisser Naveen." he purred as he held the other into the kiss by the back of his head, his tongue begging for entrance so he could fully have the prince in this kiss. Sure nobody would hold this against him look at the man who could resist that charm?

29C from Leon

[29C]

@talebytale

Alaric kissed Leon with such a deep and reckless abandon, fingers tangled in his lush mane of hair as he rutted his naked body against the other, the pure air of desire in the air was palpable, he wasn't often allowed to show his more primal nature his lust on full display as he clung to the gorgeous man against his lips. "Take me lion, I need you." he whined softly between hungry furtive kisses, legs wrapped tightly around the lion's waist. "Show me how the king of the forest has diplomatic relations." he breathed needy with sexual desire.

where: titus' palace apartment | when: 2 AM | whom: @talebytale Naveen

Titus steps into the apartment above the restaurant and slumps against the door to close it with a tired but satisfied sigh.

"I'm done," he calls out, checking the time. 2 AM. Not bad for a Monday night.

He unbuttons his shirt and pulls it off slowly, lazily. Then he shuffles through the apartment, looking for Naveen.

zeke  heard  a  lot  about  the  other  kingdoms  ever  since  attending  the  first  day  of  king  stefan's  festivities.  apparently  there  were  witches  everywhere  who  turned  humans  into  ..monsters.  almost  like  him,  but  ..  not  quite.  too  close  to  ignore  though.  of  course  he  was  curious,  of  course  he  wanted  to  know  how  that  was  possible  -  he  heard  there  was  an  entire  family  cursed  to  turn  into  bears.

his  nose  sniffed  a-many  things  at  the  castle,  including  ...  a  cat.  a  cat.  playing  with  those  was  fun.  cats  could  dish  out,  but  not  take  any  heat,  so  that  was  exciting.  their  scent  was  all  around  -  by  the  banquet,  where  zeke  stuffed  his  mouth  to  the  brim,  in  the  hallway  leading  through  all  the  rooms,  but  also...  yeah,  outside.

sniff  sniff.

he  followed  the  scent  outside,  eager  to  find  this  kitty  cat  in  the  courtyard.  closer.  he  was  getting  closer.  the  sun  was  slowly  setting,  but  it  was  still  bright  enough  out  to  see  him  from  afar.  he  was  big.

big  kitty.

sniff  sniff.

little  grin  played  around  his  lips  when  discovered  -  he  hadn't  exactly  been  subtle,  so  he  approached  without  hesitation,  "you're  far  from  home,  kitty  cat."  oh,  the  urge  to  pounce  was  ...  strong,  but  he  was  big.  maybe  too  big  for  him  to  handle.  hm.  "you  look  unhappy,  what's  wrong?"

Leon ft. Zeke

Though Leon mingled with people, and ate some of the food that was there - though not the meat, given that he couldn't eat meat unless it was raw ever since he had been cursed - he couldn't help but the feeling of dread in the back of his head. He knew, of course, that it was natural to feel fear and he knew that he had the courage to do what it took to stand up in the name of fear, but... It was still there. And while he had managed to meet up with Nick and know that he was okay, he couldn't help but feel as though something... big was going to happen.

Or maybe he was just overwhelmed and overstimulated by all of the scents in the air.

Either way, he knew that he needed to get out and catch a breath of fresh air, and so he headed out to the courtyard. Sitting on a bench, he leaned back and breathed in through his nose - though with his mouth parted - for a few moments when, all of a sudden, his ear twitched as he sensed someone approaching.

"You need something?"
