ryu and roque

[6:08 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Glass, Val, and Kass? I've heard of Glass before, I think.. dunno any of the other ones. Think they'll be lame?" Roque asked as she looked at the name plate. @ajjjjjjjj

[6:31 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu hummed as she saw the names of the other women, and she smiled. "Actually, I think you'd find most of them pretty fun," she replied. "Val works in the same field as I do and she can be quite fun. Not as fun as I, but she's up there," Ryu chuckled.

"Glass I met after I talked to Val. She's a bassist for a band. I don't listen to a lot of music, so I didn't know who she was, but her playing was quite nice. As for this Kass person, dunno who that is, but if they're roomed with us, it'll be party. I'm sure the girls wouldn't mind if you wanted to stick with us instead of that group of losers you have in your dorm," Ryu said with a playful wink. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[6:42 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"I might take you up on that offer- though I do have to get back in to my room at least once tonight to change.. I couldn't possibly go to the gala in my every day outfit.." Roque said. "I intended on meeting Glass sometime, but I can't say I'm too interested in getting to know her and all.. I mean, she doesn't have any blood sooooooo.." @ajjjjjjjj

[6:52 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske chuckled and she opened the door to the room, waltzing inside as she listened to Roque. "Of course. I wouldn't ever get in the way of a babe doing her thing. Though, you could always just bring your things over so you won't have to make the various trips," she hummed.

As she tossed her bag onto a random bed, she turned to give Roque a curious look. "You only interested in blood-filled girls?" She asked with a chuckle. "I'm sure even bloodless individuals can offer some sort of entertainment." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[6:57 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Well it looks like all four beds are taken in this room, so where are you suggesting I sleep?" Roque laughed, though it was pretty clear she had a suggestion. "And I can't really imagine having too much fun with someone who's not blood filled, getting a taste is the best part." @ajjjjjjjj

[7:04 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Where else would you sleep?" Ryunoske laughed as she playfully dragged Roque along with her to the bed she threw her things on. She pulled Roque down onto the edge of the bed, sitting with her quite closely. "Taste is fine, but fun can be explored in many different ways. I think it'd be quite cool to see what kind of things she can create with her powers, don't you? Curiosity is quite the killer." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:12 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

".. Oh, I'm sure she could make so many interesting things, yeah. But I did bring along some of my favorite things already, in.. Wherever my bags are right now." Roque chuckled and put a hand on Ryu's thigh. "I feel like with you I should say it now since there might be some conflict, I don't bottom under any circumstances.. Not necessarily always being the giver, I don't really care about that, I just need to literally be above the other person. Just a strong preference." @ajjjjjjjj

[7:22 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske smirked a bit when Roque put her hand on her thigh and she couldn't help but chuckle. A warm, low, chuckle. "A strong preference you can't part with for me for just a night? I'm not one to be against letting a babe take the wheel, but I do have to say, I think you'll miss out on my true charm if I'm doing the least amount of work," she replied with a shrug. "I can already tell we're similar souls when it comes to this kind of thing. We have the most fun and pleasure when we get to be the dominant one. I assure you though, I am more about the serving aspect than the power one. You'll find it more fun if you let me do the heavy lifting, babe." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:30 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Hmm. Seems like we can't quite agree. I'll.." Roque hummed and leaned back against the wall, taking her hand off of Ryu. "I'll think about it. That means a lot, coming from me. You better appreciate it." @ajjjjjjjj

[7:37 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Again, Ryunoske let out a warm laugh and gave Roque her space. "Well, how about we share a cigarette while you think over it?" She asked as she pulled out another cigar from her pocket. "It's not everyday I get the honor of a pretty lady to go out of her way for me. I have to celebrate a bit." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:40 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Aww, for liddol' ol' me?" Roque said and looked over at the cigar. "Yeah I'll take one. Sadly I believe I left all of my good ones back at my penthouse.. Didn't want my bags to get searched and seized or something dumb like that. But it seems like they didn't check anyone's bags.." @ajjjjjjjj

[7:48 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Smoking/

"I was also a little worried a dainty church would have their qualms about someone like me being here, but it seems like they purposefully brought people from more.. uncolorful walks of life here. Suppose they want to cleanse us?" She joked as she handed Roque a cigar and held a light for her. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[4:45 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Ha, maybe. I think they'll find that they got more than they bargained for bringing me here." Roque laughed and took the cigar. She lit it and took a long breath, letting the smoke back out of her nostrils. @ajjjjjjjj

[6:21 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Well, I'm glad that they did. Wouldn't have met you otherwise," Ryunoske chuckled as she lit her own cigar. She took in a deep breath herself, her shoulders relaxing as she did so. "It's almost time for the gala.. Do you need help getting ready babe? I'm quite good at being a stand or dress tier," Ryu smiled. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[6:39 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Well, I don't need help.. But I would like it." Roque said. "Sometimes it's hard to find suits that fit my bust size, y'know? And tailors are soooo annoying. I haven't worn this suit in a while, haven't needed it." @ajjjjjjjj

[6:45 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu chuckled, red-green smoke escaping her lips as she did so. "I'll be more than honored to help then. I'm sure I'll be more useful than the boys you've got surrounding you," he hummed and stood up from the bed, offering his arm to Roque once again. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[9:24 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque took another law draw from the cigar before reaching out to grab Ryu's arm with her free hand. She didn't move to pull herself up though. @ajjjjjjjj

[9:44 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske smirked a bit as she looked down at Roque. With a quick and effortless motion, she pulled Roque up and held her by her side. "You heard the man upstairs. Let's go get you ready to awe everyone at the gala, shall we?.. Unless you would like me to carry you to your room?" She chuckled. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[11:35 AM]Morgan | Kass + Ren:

Kass stopped in front of the nameplate and narrowed her eyes slightly as she observed the names written next to her. She immediately made a beeline for the bathroom, bag in tow. If there was something going on in the room, she didn’t seem to notice, or even care, as she was completely honed in on getting ready for the event. Her modest outfit was swapped for something less so, though her once exposed skeletal arms were now covered. This way, if she were to dance, she wouldn’t harm her partner.

After a lengthy amount of time in the bathroom, she strutted out of the room and to the gala, letting her dress and veil trail behind her.

[2:48 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Oh, how could I say no?" Roque leaned against her, clearly ready to be carried. "I'm a bit heavy, but I have a feeling you'll be just fine." @ajjjjjjjj

[4:18 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu happily carried Roque up bridal style—it was quite effortless on her half. She gave Kass a brief glance as she walked on by, not really interested in her... for now, before heading out with Roque in her arms. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

ryu and roque 😳

[10:45 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

...

Roque made it back first, pausing to lean against the door and take in a few breaths. She had genuinely run pretty fast for a while.

"I-" She took another deep breath. "- win." @ajjjjjjjj

[10:54 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske ran up right behind Roque. That was just a brisk walk to her, so she was still as put up as she was when they started. She smiled and gently patted Roque's back.

"Are you okay, babe? You look rather out of breath," she hummed. "Should we take a short break before we do anything more exhausting?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[11:02 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"I'm fine- I'll be fine. I wanna go grab some stuff from my room first, then I'll be good to go." @ajjjjjjjj

[11:11 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu nodded as she opened the door to her room. "Fine by me. Just walk in whenever you're ready~" She smiled warmly before stepping inside. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[11:31 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Hehe, yep, be right back~" Roque said and stepped away over to her room.

...

She was gone for a little while, longer than it would take to simply grab a bag and head over.

Finally, the door opened up again. Roque headed inside, wearing a long red and black silk robe that covered her from head to toe. She had her hair braided back in to one giant braid, with only few strands hanging loose.. Along with her was a small suitcase that she was wheeling in.

"All ready?" Roque asked and closed the door behind her. @ajjjjjjjj

[11:54 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske's back was turned from Roque as she entered. She was staring out the window, which was slightly ajar to let the smoke of her cigar out of the room. When she heard Roque's voice, she turned, giving her a curious smile as she saw Roque's entirely new getup.

"Yep. I see you got all nice and fancy. Is this a treat just for me?" She asked with a small laugh.

[11:54 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

@Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[12:13 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Don't be so full of yourself, this is just my favorite robe." Roque chuckled. She stepped over to the bed and put her suitcase up on it. "But I think you'll like what I have under it more." @ajjjjjjjj

[4:15 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu smiled and gave Roque a small shrug as she did so. "Hey, can't blame a girl for thinking she's special," she joked before closing the window.

"I like all of you, babe. Whatever is outside or underneath," Ryu said as she stepped over to Roque and placed a hand on her lower back. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[4:20 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"I think you're pretty special." Roque smirked and leaned in to Ryu. "Some people say I look a bit scary in the light.. I'm guessing you don't mind, but that's just my warning. Usually my room is pitch black." @ajjjjjjjj

[9:04 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Scary?" Ryu chuckled, finding the comment a bit humorous. "If they think you're scary in the light, I don't want to know what they would think I'm like."

Ryunoske snuffed out her cigarette on a near by ash tray, (one she brought herself), before turning to look at Roque. "So, are you going to fight me about who tops still?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[4:02 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Well, I think it was decided its gonna be me since I won that race fair and square." Roque said and untied the front of her robe. @ajjjjjjjj

[6:43 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske playful rolled her eyes and smiled as she looked down at Roque. "Ah, so you are," she mused and let her hand fall from Roque's back.

She stepped towards the bed and sat down, a smug smile still on her lips. "Well, if the lady thinks she'll do better riding, let's give it a try. We'll see if you can keep up," she taunted.@Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:20 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Good choice." Roque slid the suitcase over toward her. "My favorites are in there, you can choose one you like."

At the taunt, she rolled her eyes.

"Trust me, I can keep up. This is practically half of my job." Roque chuckled and finally let the robe fall off her back.

(Sexual themes and scars)

Of course, she was wearing some red and black lingerie that matched the robe. That might not have been the most interesting thing visible now, though. All across her body were scars- precise, clean cut, and straight. All the way down her arms, her legs, across her stomach and back- there weren't many places on her body that were untouched from the pale scars. In some places where multiple scars met, there were strange symbols carved with the same precise lines. If Ryu had seen them, she'd be able to notice that they matched up with the ones currently written across the floors of Roque's room.

"You like it? Not many people get to see all of it." Roque chuckled. @ajjjjjjjj

[8:28 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

cont/

Ryu sparred the suitcase a glance, but she wasn't quite interested in whatever fun things Roque brought with her. Her attention was focused on Roque, and she couldn't help but give her a small smile as she removed the robe. The lingerie was a nice touch. Ryu didn't think Roque would actually put in this amount of effort in, but she appreciated it. The scars didn't disgust Ryunoske, or even make her question what sort of things Roque got up to. If anything, Ryu was intrigued by them. The symbols, especially. She reached a hand out to where one of the symbols were and gently ran her fingers over it.

"Very much so. What's a pretty little thing like you running around with this though?" Ryu asked with a curious smile. "Does it mean something?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:32 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"That one?" Roque asked, flexing her arm a bit where Ryu was touching. The symbol began to glow a bright red color as she moved. "Just a rune that helps keep my body going. Made them myself after my powers started making me sick. Apparently they're not working entirely as intended, but I'm not dead, so they're working well enough."

"Some of the runes are for strength, some are to keep my body together, others are for some protection against illnesses.. I have a lot of different ones." @ajjjjjjjj

[9:50 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu hummed, taking note of that information as she continued to examine the runes. "Your own powers make you sick?" She asked with a raised brow. "Well, that is an unfortunate side affect... but at least they make for interesting body decoration," Ryu chuckled faintly as she retracted her hand back.

"Am I going to have to undress myself, or am I going to be the lucky lady that gets you to do that for me~?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[10:21 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"It would be my pleasure." Roque grinned and pushed Ryu back on to the bed.

... @ajjjjjjjj

[11:39 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Smoking+nudity/

After everything was said and done, Ryunoske lit another cigar. Leaning against the top of the bed frame and an arm wrapped around Roque, she blew smoke out towards the window once more. Without her clothes, her exposed skin decorated in tattoos and scars were displayed out in the open. Even over her intimate areas, there were colorful and intricate designs.

Somewhere, a place where Roque found it best, were a few bite marks. They were bruised and were obviously deep enough for blood to be drawn. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[12:19 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

That place would be right above her collarbone. A place where it would be partially hidden by a shirt, but still partially noticeable.

.. she had also fallen asleep laying against Ryu by now, tucked under her arm. @ajjjjjjjj

petrai yells at ryu and roque

[3:59 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Knock knock knock

Somebody's at the door! @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[4:18 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Hearing the knock, Ryunoske raised a brow. She wondered if it was one of her roommates. It'd be quite interesting if any of them were here and just awkwardly waiting for things to finish. After a moment, Ryunoske slowly slid her arm away from Roque, put her pants back on (but nothing else), and went to the door.

"Yeah?" She asked as she opened the door. @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[4:18 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque managed to somehow stay asleep.

Or at least it appeared that way. @ajjjjjjjj @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[4:22 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

It was Petrai! She looked Ryu up and down with stern disdain (at least she was wearing pants now. That was a plus.) "You remember I'm watching you, do you? I didn't make my speech at the gala for nothing." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:36 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske blinked, giving Petrai a blank stare before a small smile crossed her lips. "Oh, my apologies. I should of asked if you wanted to join first. Watching can only be so fun," Ryu replied.

"Unless you're into that kind of thing..?" @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:37 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Snoozin still.

Or perhaps eavesdropping.

@ajjjjjjjj @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:39 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"I am not, as you so crudely put it, 'into that'." Petrai kept a stern, steady face. "I assume you both are well aware of the rules, and simply wished to mock our church's leadership by disobeying them?" @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:30 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske continued to smile and she ran a hand through her bangs, combing it back into her usual style. "I don't think having sex with my wife in the privacy of my room is exactly mocking anyone," Ryu replied.

"Did you simply come all the way here to scold us? I find it quite disheartening a church goer has such hatred for those in love." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:30 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

@Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:32 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Snore.

Or maybe a chuckle.

Roque rolled over to face the wall. @ajjjjjjjj @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:35 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Petrai let out a low sigh that could've been a dry laugh. "You aren't married." She said.

"And again- on this island there is no such thing as 'privacy of your own room. I see everything, remember?" She gestured to her own face, to her eyes. "If anything, it's rude to me." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:41 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Oh? And how would you know that?" Ryu smiled. "Lots of places make it illegal to be ourselves. Perhaps in some countries, we're considered unmarried, but in our heart and souls, we are connected. I am saddened to hear this church thinks the same of us. I always thought churches were meant to love and treat everyone equally, despite the differences."

Ryunoske then smiled even more. "Perhaps you will need to adjust to blocking things out then, madam. I assume you must be able to see when people go to use the toilet too? Shower, even? Is it not rude to peak into those solo intimate moments?" @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:43 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"If you are married, when is your anniversary? How long have you been married? How did you meet?" Petrai instantly started interrogating.

"Believe me, if I could, I would. I have no interest in the private moments of others." Petrai said, then added through gritted teeth, "Unfortunately, I can't turn it off." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:49 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"January 1st, 5 years, met at a club," Ryunoske answered back to back, not missing a beat.

Ryu's smile was almost mocking now as she continued to listen to Petrai. "Awh, that must be awful. Well, I am sorry to hear that, madam. Unforunately, our love is something that is a day to day occurance, just like how using the bathroom is a daily thing for people. It would be quite unfair if we were barred from our perfectly holy affair, simply because someone cannot not see it." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:54 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Petrai raised an eyebrow at Ryu's responses, but didn't question them further. If they were true, she was going to judge them for getting married on the New Year. Strange choice of a date.

"Regardless of my abilities or the strange views you seem to have about lovemaking, it is still explicitly against the rules." She hummed, not shifting her stance or changing her expression. "Which means that if you continue to engage in such behavior, you risk being disqualified from the tournament. Same with the smoking indoors. And that's just a hygiene concern, mind you." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:55 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

".. she left the window open.." Roque finally said, a mere mumble from underneath the sheets. @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @ajjjjjjjj

[9:12 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Hmm, that is rather disapointing to hear. Are you the one who implemented those rules, madam?" Ryunoske asked with a curious cock of her head. She spared Roque a glance when she heard her voice and chuckled softly.

"I do do my best to only smoke with ventilation. I am not a complete barbarian," she mused. "Am I allowed to smoke on any balconies? And if the rules only indicate doing these quote on quote, inappropriate, actions inside is not allowed, it would be rude if accommodations were not made for those who operate differently than your own." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[9:18 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"That information is not relevant to this conversation." Petrai said simply.

"There are no balconies on the island, because of the climate conditions here. If you wish to smoke, you can do so outside temple property."

"Accommodations to the rules will not be made except in severe and unlikely cases where those exceptions become necessary. Regardless of how you live your own life at home, you are on our island now, and must accommodate yourselves to our lifestyle. If you did not wish to involve yourself in the way of life of a church such as our own, you had every right to stay home. But you are here." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[4:11 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque finally sat up, thankfully keeping the blanket pulled up over her chest.

"This whole little thing you have going on is totally gonna die out in like fifty years if you don't let anybody do anything fun. Not to mention no new generation or anything since no one can have sex apparently?" @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[6:50 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske couldn't help but chuckle as Roque finally piped in and she leaned against the doorframe with her arms crossed. "I find it quite unfortunate the church here is so uncaring for its guests here. Such narrow thinking is bound to get possible newcomers to turn away. It's quite sad, really, knowing a church can be so cruel," Ryu mused. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[6:53 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Your opinions on our church matters mean nothing to me." Petrai said. "I simply came to give you a warning, and warn you I did. Roque, I also need to speak with you about another matter." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[6:55 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Ugh.." Roque grumbled, letting the blanket fall. She stretched her arms up dramatically. "Just get it out already, what's one of your many issues with me this time." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @ajjjjjjjj

[7:21 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske hummed. "Whatever matters you have with my wife, you can say out here," Ryunoske said. "Her matters are my matters." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:22 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Very well." Petrai turned to face Roque. "Defacing temple property is also against our island rules, and what you did to your room counts as defacing our property. You'll have to clean it up." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:29 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Ughhh, I knew you'd throw a fit about that. In my culture, those symbols are wishes of strength and prosperity, I was simply wishing good tidings upon my lovely roommates.." Roque sighed. She held out her arm, showing off one of the scars on it that matched one that was on the floor in the other room. "If it meant anything bad, would I really have them written all over myself..? I think not." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:29 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

@ajjjjjjjj

[7:49 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Ohh, you drew those in your room too, babe? How kind of you," Ryu smiled, instantly playing along with whatever was going on. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:52 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"I couldn't care less what they mean. You could be writing out verses from our prayerbooks, and it'd still be against the rules. You drew these symbols, in what I assume to be blood, because of course it would be, all over the floor. Do you know how much that is going to stain? It's not easy to get that much blood out of carpet. We're probably going to have to redo the entire room, and that's wasted time, money and effort." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:11 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Oh boo hoo, the carpet.. you should have invested in hardwood anyway. Carpet in a bedroom is so twenty years ago." Roque rolled her eyes. "But don't worry your pretty little head about it, I can get blood out of anything, anywhere, any time I want.. If I really wanted to clean it, put some real elbow grease in to it, you wouldn't be able to tell it was ever there in the first place.." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @ajjjjjjjj

[8:20 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske chuckled. "A real bloodsucker she is," she added in before turning her attention back to Petrai. "Well, if that's all you had to say to us, then I think we'll bid you adeu, madam. I'm sure my beloved will remove her designs if that is what you wish, but know it was all in good faith." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:22 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"If you can clean it easily, then it should be no issue for you to have it cleaned by tonight." Petrai nodded, pleased that at least Ryu seemed onboard with having the designs removed. "I'll be back this evening to check if they're gone. I'm sure you both understand." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:31 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Yeah, they'll be gone. But can't you just check whenever you want for if it's done or not? With your all-seeing-ness or whatnot? Or do you wanna come see it in person so you can give me a little reward for doing such a good job~" @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @ajjjjjjjj

[8:39 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske couldn't help but snicker. "Wasn't my reward for you enough earlier, sweetheart?" She playfully teased. "I can't believe you're asking for one from another woman right in front of me," Ryu jest. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:41 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Petrai kept a straight face. "It's simply a deadline for you to make sure it's done by.l"

"On another note, summoning blood demons is also against the rules, so try to avoid doing that in the future, too. You will be disqualified if you keep breaking rules and causing trouble." Petrai warned. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:43 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Your reward was plenty good, but I'm always looking for more.." Roque chuckled. She paused, raising an eyebrow. "A blood demon? What in hell are you talking about?" @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @ajjjjjjjj

[8:53 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"If you wanted more, you know I'll give it you whenever you want," Ryu winked at Roque before turning back to Petrai once again.

"Blood demon? I know my beloved bit me pretty hard earlier, but surely it wasn't enough to constituent me as a demon of any sort, mam," Ryu feigned ignorance. She was sure both her and Roque knew Petrai meant whatever Blooxas was. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:57 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"You and I both know what I'm referring to. Don't play dumb with me." Petrai looked Roque straight in the eye, ignoring Ryu. "You are very close to being disqualified from this tournament completely. If you wish to remain and compete, I would suggest watching yourself. I'm not giving you any more warnings." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[9:09 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

".. I'm assuming you mean Blooxas, he's not a blood demon, he's my blood boyfriend. And I didn't see 'no summoning blood demons' anywhere on the list either, let alone blood boyfriends so.." Roque rolled her eyes, and looked straight back at Petrai. "I would hardly say my list of crimes is putting me near expulsion. I drank Peregrine's blood in public before I knew that was oh so bad here, I was assaulted by another guest and got my scythe confiscated, I have a little blood boyfriend whom wishes harm upon no one, and I just had epic sex with my wife.. Hardly criminal acts." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @ajjjjjjjj

[10:34 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Blood boyfriend, huh? Ryu chuckled a bit at that. "Blooxas is a cool guy. I have my wife and I'm dedicated, but the extras aren't so bad either. We have good and open communication, so if you think there's something going on, don't you worry your little socks off, mam," Ryu smiled at Petrai.@Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[10:38 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"'Blood boyfriends'," Petrai said, complete with air quotes, "were not listed as being against the rules because Yeonaixho and I did not believe we'd have issues with that sort of thing. But they are against the rules. Now you know that."

She paused. "You claim to have done nothing wrong, yet you have been involved in so much more trouble than anyone else here, excluding Peregrine. At this point, you're a common denominator."

"I will not stand here aus justify myself or my rules any longer. I've said everything I came here to say."

With that, she left. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[10:48 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"You-" She began, but cut herself off as Petrai walked away. Her hair flashed a solid bright red as she clenched her teeth together. "She's genuinely starting to piss me off now. What's the point of they can just make new rules out of nowhere to specifically target me?" @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄) @ajjjjjjjj

ryu and roque get married

[10:56 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Again, Ryunoske laughed. She found the entire situation so entertaining. With a smile, she went back to Roque's side and kissed her cheek. "Now, now, dear. Anger makes you grow wrinkles. Some people just can't fathom the greatness of other people. Don't let that old lady get to you," Ryunoske said and gently rubbed Roque's back. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[11:18 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque's expression didn't change as Ryu spoke or rubbed her back.

"It feels like I'm back in school where they're always on my case about every little thing I do. Ugh." Roque grumbled, then finally shook her head. "I have something I want to give you." @ajjjjjjjj

[12:29 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunsoke raised a brow and her hand slowly came to a stop. "You want to give me something?" She asked curiously. There wasn't much she had to say about Roque's school life. She didn't really have interest in it. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[2:30 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Yeah, give me a sec." Roque said. She stood up, not really minding that she was still entirely naked. Sorry not sorry Petrai.

She crouched down and drew a circle on the floor with her finger, which once completed, opened up to reveal her little blood realm.

Yep, looked bloody in there. Like an ocean of it.

She stuck her arm in and reached around, eventually grabbing on to something and pulling it out. Surprisingly, her hand was clean.

She held her fist out to Ryu and opened it up, revealing two golden rings with green gems. They looked identical, including some etching on the inside if Ryu cared to look. They both looked expensive as hell, both with the gems and patterns on them.

"If we're gonna keep up the act, might as well look the part, hehe." Bringing out these rings seemed to cheer her up already. @ajjjjjjjj

[2:46 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Resting her cheek on her hand, Ryu hummed as she watched Roque. Roque's powers was already growing on Ryu, so there wasn't much Ryunoske thought would surprise her anymore in regards to it. When Roque revealed the rings however, Ryunoske chuckled.

"Wow? For lil ol' me?" She smiled and took one of the rings. "If that's the case, I hope you remember what I told that old lady when she bombarded me with questions," Ryu said as she tucked the ring into her pocket. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[2:59 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque put the other ring on her own hand, looking at it proudly.

"I remember. I was listening." Roque said. ".. You not gonna ask where I got them from?" @ajjjjjjjj

[3:05 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu shrugged. "If the lady wants to tell me, I'm all ears," Ryunoske said as she smiled at Roque. "I figured it was just something you had in case your beloved came back to you, but perhaps I'm just making assumptions." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[3:06 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"You should look on the inside of the ring to find out. There's a name written on there." Roque chuckled, twisting her own ring around. @ajjjjjjjj

[3:10 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Inside the ring? Ryunoske raised a brow and did just that, pulling it back out her pocket and looking at the underside. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[3:12 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

It read Kaizer Issa on the inside.

Which would mean absolutely nothing here to anyone but Roque.

"Aaaand mine says Asha Issa in it.. My dear ol' cousin. She wasn't needing them anymore." @ajjjjjjjj

[3:15 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Huh," Ryu commented. That's not what she expected, but interesting none the less, she supposed. "What happened with your cousin and this Kaizer? Pretty nice you got these for free, I assume," she asked as she put the ring away once more. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[3:28 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"I wouldn't say they were free." Roque said. "It was such a beautiful day back in my home village.. Hot but not too hot, clear skies, a breeze gentle enough to not kick up any of the sand around.. And it was my cousin's wedding day, of course."

"And I was asked to perform a little concert for them, which I obliged of course, because I'm so nice.." Roque grinned as she looked down at the ring. "But it just so happened that a band of bandits attacked the town that night.. Explosions, fires, destruction, death.."

"Quite tragic, really. Asha's parents died, a good percentage of the population did actually.. Including Kaizer, so sad. And Asha just happened to be nearby trying to save him when a some other stuff exploded.."

(Child death)

"A real shame that she got so injured from that, because she was super pregnant too, lost that thing from the trauma. So sad. She was so excited about him."

Roque didn't seem so sad about it.

"Maybe one day the person who instigated the attack will be caught.. But I have a feeling not." @ajjjjjjjj

[3:43 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Again, what came out of Roque's lips were not what Ryunoske was expecting. She remained quiet as the tale was laid out for her, only her small nods a sign that she was paying attention to Roque. The smoke in the room wavered a bit heavier, but remain in their usual green-red hue.

"Hmm, that is rather sad," Ryu said, her face completely void of any sign she meant those words. "Both parents, her husband, and her kid, huh? Some people are just unlucky. Guess that just meant we got these for 'practically' free," she smiled. "I guess you must of left your village afterwards? Considering most were dead and the explosions most likely destroyed everything else." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[3:48 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"I was gone for long before that. Just so happened the night I came back everything went to shit.. Really weird that that happened." Roque said. "'Parrently they went and fixed it up good as it used to be. Somehow. Haven't been back to see it. One of the people that was injured went on to do something moderately interesting, he's a stupid wrestler or something now. Dunno why they bothered to fix the shit hole up, I would've just left it." @ajjjjjjjj

[3:54 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Ah, I see." Ryunoske's smile only widened a bit, almost as if she found Roque's explanation of things humorous. Maybe it was because of Roque's tone being so light compared to the topic, or maybe it was because Ryu was just apathetic, perhaps a mix of the two.

She blew out some more smoke, watching it blow out the corner of the window. "Is your cousin still alive then? It sounds like it from the sounds of your story. Did any of them ever figure out why the village was attacked?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[3:57 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"She's still alive. Somehow. That made me a bit mad. She's fucked up and scarred up and weird now, though. Can't imagine how that happened." Roque hummed and grabbed her robe off the ground. She put it back on and tied off the front. "I always hated her. She's the main person I wanted dead. Everyone else was just collateral."

"And no they never figured out who did it." @ajjjjjjjj

[4:04 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

A line of smoke circled around Roque's face, gently brushing against some of the loose hair on the side of her cheek. Ryunoske chuckled and plucked out the cigar from her lips, smothering it into her ashtray.

"Jealously is an ugly color for anyone to wear, my love. Do you feel better now that she's alone and scarred?" Ryu asked with an almost taunting smile. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[4:11 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"I'm not jealous of her." Roque grumbled. She swatted the smoke away. "And yes. I did actually feel better to see her alone and miserable. And watching her little brother be upset was funny too. Thanks for asking." @ajjjjjjjj

[4:21 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu laughed softly once more, a sign she didn't believe Roque at all about not being jealous. She didn't continue pressing about it, however. "Ah, well, as long as you're happy, that's all that matters to me," Ryunoske said and stepped over to give Roque another kiss on her cheek.

"I'm gonna go wash up. Care to join me?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[4:23 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Hm. Sure. But it seems all we can do is look now." Roque said, clearly having something else on her mind as she turned away from Ryunoske. "I'll need to go get my products from my room, I'm guessing you use less than me." @ajjjjjjjj

[4:27 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"I'm just naturally this dashing," Ryunoske joked with a playful wink. "..And I have straight hair. It tends to be easier to find products for that," she added. "I'll get the water warmed up then. Just hop in whenever." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[4:29 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"You also have a decent amount less of hair than me." Roque added and headed toward the door. She left without adding anything else. @ajjjjjjjj

[4:34 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske didn't watch Roque leave. Instead, she headed off to the bathroom and started the shower. She left the door unlocked, so Roque could come back whenever she wanted. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[4:35 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

...

...

...

Roque didn't come back. @ajjjjjjjj

[4:44 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu didn't seem to care that Roque never returned. She finished her shower and changed back into her suit with no problem. If Roque was to be her opponent, Ryunoske would fight with her guard up...

girls night!

[6:52 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

After some time changing and getting her bonnet, Titania gently knocked on the door. She figured this was Valerie's room, considering it had their name and Kass' name as well.

"Miss Valerie? It is Titania," they said behind the door. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[11:12 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Doors unlocked! Come in!" Valerie sang happily as she looked up from what she was doing. "Hey! I'm cleaning my nails so I can put on a new coat of nail polish. Want me to do your nails or anything?" She asked Titania. "I'm not to sure where Kass, Ryu or Glass are currently but I assume they'll come by soon enough."

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[3:40 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Titania slowly opened the door, feeling a bit shy stepping into someone else's personal quarters. Though, when she saw Valerie, her nerves calmed a little. "Paint my nails?" They asked and looked down at Valerie's hands.

"What is that? I have never done it before," the princess said and walked over to the vampire. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[7:49 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Valerie patted the seat next to her before she showed Titania her nails. "See? They're colored! Isn't that exciting?" She smiled. "I like to paint them white, black, maybe a red...I have a bunch of colors with me if you want to pick one. Or two! Each nail can be its own color if you'd like."

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:14 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

The princess looked over the colored nails, her eyes sparkling with interest. She promptly sat down and peered over the selection of colors Valerie had with them. "Ohhh... How interesting. I have never seen this sort of activity before. How do you perform this task?" They asked as they pointed to a light pink color polish. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[6:22 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Like this." Valerie poured some nail polish remover onto a cotton ball before she scrubbed off the old nail polish. "That was some old nail polish. Now I dry it." She grabbed a towel and dried her nail before taking the nail polish and applying it. "And now I paint!"

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[6:39 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Titania watched Valerie's demonstration closely and scooted closer to them to get a better look. "Oooh... but what if I do not have any nail polish already? Do I still have to do the first two steps?" She asked with a tilt of her head. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[6:51 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"I would clean off your nail, yeah, just incase there's any dirt or anything on it." Valerie grabbed another cotton ball. "I have a bunch of colors. You want the light pink?" She asked and held up the polish. "Its a really nice color...I like it too."

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:10 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

The princess nodded as Valerie held up the light pink color. "I think it is very pretty," she smiled as she held her hands out to the vampire. "I am excited! This sounds very fun," she smiled gleefully.

"Do you think anyone else will be able to join us?" @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[10:45 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"I'm not sure if anyone will come by." Valerie frowned a bit. "But maybe they'll stop by! You mind giving me your hand real quick? I'm just going to clean it and then I'll start painting your nails."

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[11:07 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Oh, that is a little disappointing, but it cannot be helped," Titania nodded and held her hands closer to Valerie.

Titania's hands were long and slender, almost like sticks. Whenever Valerie touched them, she would notice they had a rather rough and dry texture. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[12:57 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Valerie let out a small hum and cleaned Titania's hand before she started to paint the others nails. "We can definitely do another girls night. We'll have a whole big group of people. Make it a fun late night type of thing." She reassured. "Promise."

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[3:20 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

There was a subtle flinch to Titania's hands when Valerie touched them, but Titania didn't seem startled. She looked to the side of Valerie, almost as if she was shy about the physical aspect of having her nails done.

"Mhm.. that will be fun," she smiled. "...Thank you again for all this, Miss Valerie. I truly enjoy my time with you." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[4:01 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"No problem." Valerie shook her head. "It honestly pretty nice, usually I don't have much time to do this. So having some time to kinda just..well. Relax, paint my nails and yours, do my hair and everything. It's pretty nice. Yeah I get dressed up pretty fancy for work stuff but it's not like...for me. Doing this? This is for me."

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:42 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

The princess couldn't help but smile as she listened to Valerie. Slowly, she found the strength to look at the vampire head on. Titania's fingers curled just slightly, but then relaxed soon after. "I am happy to hear you are doing something for yourself, Miss Valerie... Life is too short to spend doing things for others," Titania replied with a faint hum.

"I hope you are able to do things for yourself more often, even after all of this.." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[5:58 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"You're right, you know. Life's too short. Especially with what I do." She frowned a bit. "I try not to think about it too much though." Valerie turned around and pulled out a small bag. "I have tiny little charms I can add to the nails if you'd like." She pulled out a small white bead. "They look like pearls to me! But they're not real but...its still fun and cute to add."

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:05 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Titania peered over the small bag before giving Valerie an excited nod. "Oh! They are adorable! How do you add them onto your nail..? Do they stick on with some sort of adhesive?" They asked with a curious look.

"The pearls match my jewelry in a way. I think it would be a splendid addition to my appearance." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[9:23 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Yep! I got some nail glue." Valerie dug through the bag a bit more and pulled out a tiny bit of glue. "I think it'd make your nails pop too..and yeah, definitely be a splendid addition to your appearance.." Valerie added with a small blush.

"You can go through the bag and find others you'd like too. Feel free!" Valerie handed her the small bag of charms.

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[4:02 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Oohh.. I see. Glue for nails. That makes sense," Titania nodded. She didn't seem to notice the blush on Valerie's face, her attention immediately being grabbed by the bag the vampire handed her.

"I can..?" They smiled as they started to go through the charms. "Wow! You have so many, miss Valerie... They are all so pretty too.." Titania rummaged through the bag for a little bit before pulling out two charms shaped like stars. One was pink, the other was purple.

"Look! These are like us! We could match charms!" Titania smiled brightly. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[5:24 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Aww those are so cute." Valerie grinned and looked as t the charms. Her cheeks couldn't help but burn a bit burn more before she sheepishly nodded. "Definitely." She agreed.

"I could tell you love purple. I do too. I also like pink." She laughed softly before she gently took her hand. "Which nail do you want it on? Or do you want some more charms?"

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:07 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Titania smiled warmly. "Purple has always been my favorite color, ever since I was a child," they replied with a soft laugh as they offered the charms over to Valerie. "Hmm.. Perhaps the pearls can be on every nail, and the star will be the odd one out? How about we put them on our pinky fingers?" She suggested and wiggled her pinky. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[10:35 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Pinky works." Valerie agreed before she started to apply the pearls. "That's a pretty cute idea, I think. I've always loved purple too. I think my favorite has to be pink too. That or maybe like a light grey?" She hummed in thought.

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[11:50 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Titania chuckled softly. "I think pink suits you well, Miss Valerie. Charming, cute, and easy to adore. Just like you are," she said with a bright smile and looked over the pearls Valerie was putting on. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[12:06 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Valerie felt her cheeks burn bright at the compliment before she grinned. "I'd say the same about you. Purple is a very nice color. Charming, royale, and cute." She placed the star down.

"Annnd done! You like it?"

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[4:32 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

The princess giggled as Valerie complimented her back. "Awh, you are too kind, Miss Valerie," she replied. When she saw the star on her pinky, Titania let out an excited gasp.

"Ohh!! It is absolutely adorable! Thank you so much, Miss Valerie!" They brightly smiled. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[5:41 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Its not problem! Really. It was really relaxing to do." Valerie waved a dismissive hand. She looked down at her own nails before she grabbed a nail file and started to file her nails.

"Now I gotta get started on mine," She laughed. "So, before you came here, what were you up to if you don't mind me asking? Why did you come here? I don't recall if you told me. I personally came here for fun, and out of curiosity. "Hand of God" seems very odd to me."

@ajjjjjjjj

[11:15 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Titania smiled warmly at Valerie, watching as she started on their own nails. "Ah.. as I introduced myself, I am the Princess of my kingdom, Ekimuli ky’omwezi. It is a kingdom hidden deep within a far east forest, so I traveled quite far to get here," she explained.

"I... Came here in hopes of gaining the prize of a wish, but I discussed some things with a worker named Astrid. I asked her for an audience with the host, but it has been about a day since then.. I am not sure if I will gain that meeting, but from the sounds of it, I may not need to participate in this event after all." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[12:49 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"Oh wow." Valerie gasped softly. "I hope your travel wasn't too bad. I can't believe I really am talking to a Princess." She laughed a bit. "I'm from the city. New Ninjago city."

As Titania told her about situation, she gave a small hum. "Hm...everything here is pretty fishy if you ask me." Valerie frowned a bit. "I spoke to Kass about it and we agreed to form and alliance and talk to others and then report back to one another. I personally don't think that this person is "a hand of God". I think it's all bullshit. I hope for you the wish is true but something about this place is so...creepy to me."

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[3:46 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Titania smiled a bit sheepishly and tucked a couple of her braids behind her ear. "The travel was quite easy, actually. Though, I did have to leave some of my belongings behind at home because of the distance," they replied. "I had always wondered what the city was like in other nations. Going through the city back on Ninjago's mainland was quite fascinating, even if it was only the outskirts of it," she hummed.

"An alliance..?" Titania repeated with a raised brow. "Well.. a wish does sound too good to be true, but with the slew of people here and their different talents, I do not think it is too far fetched... but it is good to also be cautious. Most things are not for free..." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[7:40 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

"I see. Its kinda like that sometimes, huh." Valerie agreed. "I had to leave some things behind to..but hey, its nothing too major. And yes! The city nightlife is phenomenal here. At least I think so. The bright lights, city life and everything is always nice. Perhaps I can give you a tour one day."

"Mhm...a alliance. There's a bunch of different people here. Some have caused more trouble than others so we're kinda on the look out for one another in a way. Its good to be cautious...and I'm sure Kass wouldn't mind you joining us if you wished."

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:06 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

The princess listened intently to the description Valerie gave of the city. She tried to imagine what it all looked like in her head, but something felt off about her imagination. "I would love to see it all in person. I usually avoid such crowded spaces like cities, but if it is with you, perhaps I will be able to bear with it," they smiled.

"...I will have to think about your offer though, Miss Valerie. I trust both you and Miss Kass, but alliances are.. a bit tricky, in my experience. I thank you for extending it to me, however," Titania replied, her smile faintly straining.

As the two talked, the entrance door swung open... And walked in Ryu! She wasn't smoking for once, and looked a little surprised to see the scene in front of her. "Oh. I didn't think anyone would be back in yet. Am I intruding on something?" She asked with a smile. @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[10:19 PM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Valerie was about to reply before the door swung open and she jumped slightly. "Shit-" She cursed softly before she turned to glanced over at who entered.

"Ryu!" Valerie smiled. "Hey! No! You're fine! We're just talking and doing nails. You're more than welcomed to join us." She turned to Titania. "This is my friend, Ryu! We knew each other before we came here. She's the one I told you about. She's pretty awesome."

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:43 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Titania peered at the stranger, also surprised to see Ryunoske. She was a lot bigger and brutish than she expected Valerie's friend to be. "Ah.. I see. It is a pleasure to meet you, Miss Ryu. I am Princess Titania Anasah," she introduced herself with a small bow and smile.

"Awh, thanks for the compliment, Val. It's nice to meet you too, Titania. You can also call me Ryu," Ryunoske smiled in return before glancing over to the nail set Valerie had out. "Hmm.. I'm tempted, but I don't really do nail polish. By the way, none of you were here earlier this morning, were you?" @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

[8:02 AM]Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S:

Valerie shook her head to Ryu's question. "Nope..I was out of the room pretty early. Titania and I have been spending the day together. It's been pretty nice." Valerie smiled at Titania before turning back to Ryu.

"You sure? Not even some black nail polish?" She asked.

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:00 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

(Gonna time bubble this lol)

"Ah. If you guys were here, I was gonna apologize for all the noise, but it's fine if you weren't," Ryu chuckled. "I would love to spend some time with two lovely ladies such as yourselves, but I think I'm going to call it a night. I'll let you two get back to it," Ryu hummed and started towards her side of the room.

"Oh, and don't let Val get the jump on ya, Titania. I hear she bites pretty hard," Ryunoske added with a laugh before going into her room and shutting the door.

Titania looked rather confused by that statement before turning to Valerie. "Well, she is quite interesting." @Cap! | Valerie + Inu + NPC'S

kal pink hair

[8:52 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske got to her room, humming as she went to her things. "You ever color your hair before, Kal?" She asked as she grabbed a tube of pink hair dye. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[8:56 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“Nope, never,” Kal laughed. “My hair’s real dark, so it’d be a process of bleaching it, then dyeing it, and then the risk of damaging it- So nah, I haven’t. I’ve always wanted to, though.” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:04 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"I get that. Well, after dying my hair for so long, I've kinda given up on trying to keep it the healthiest. If you ever need a fresh start, there's always shaving all of your hair," she chuckled.

"Sit on the edge of the bathroom tub. I'll do it in there." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[9:28 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“ShaVE my hair? I can’t imagine myself bald,” Kal laughed at the thought. It felt somewhat cursed to imagine. “Maybe I’ll just stick to unhealthy hair.”

Kal did exactly what Ryu asked. He sat at the edge of the tub, ready to get this process started. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:44 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske chuckled as she followed after Kal. "Hey, it's not as bad as it sounds. I shaved my head once a few years back. My girlfriend at the time said it made me look cool," she replied as she put a towel around Kal's neck.

She had her hair lighting kit and a few hair clips. Ryu clipped Kal's hair into three sections before starting on the bleaching process. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[9:45 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“Really? D’you think I’d look cool, Rio?” Kal asked with somewhat of a dramatic flair to it. “On a scale of one to ten, what’d you think?” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:54 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

She snickered a bit. Picturing Kal bald was quite amusing. "Yeah. A 100%. 10 out of 10, you should try it some time," Ryu said with a grin. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[10:43 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“Well, if you say so, maybe one of these days,” Kal laughed. He just chilled against the tub. “But that’d be forever from now.” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:53 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Ehh, if you don't keep up your hair routine, it'll come sooner than forever," Ryu chuckled as she finished the first two sections of Kal's hair. "Your hair is a little thicker than mine, so I'm adding a bit more of the lighting, but that also means it'll burn it a little more too." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐ .

[10:57 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“Trust me, I keep up with my routines. It’s how I’ve kept myself so perfectly in shape, y’know,” Kal chuckled. “And that’s alright! I don’t mind a bit of burnin’.” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[11:19 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske playfully rolled her eyes and smiled down at the man. "Right. Well, you're gonna need to pick up a few different kinds of shampoos to keep your new colored hair from being too damanged. I'll give you a few recs after we're done," she hummed and finished up the last section.

"Alright, now we just wait for a bit. After that, we'll wash your hair, dye it, then rinse it again." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[2:58 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

"Aw shit, really? Alright, bet, I'll have to get those for sure, then. I had no idea you'd need different kinds of shampoos." Kal hummed. "Thanks, man."

"And cool, thanks," Kal grinned. "Say, Rio, where're you from, if you don't mind me askin'? I'm just curious." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[3:31 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"There are just some better shampoos for first time bleached hair. Some people don't really care about it though," she nodded. "And I'm from Nagoya. It's the capital of the Aichi prefecture in Japan," Ryu answered as she put down her bleach brush over the sink.

"If you ever travel overseas, I'd be happy to show you the best pachinko joints." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[4:33 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“Nah, gotta take care of myself, I care.” Kal chuckled. “And really? That’s awesome! Japan’s a cool place, I’ve gone a few times. I’d definitely take you up on that, I’d love to travel around a bit more and see all the hot-spots!” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[4:56 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Oh, you have? What kinda business does Mr. Knees have in Japan?" She asked with a curious look. "You look much more like a west beach kind of fella." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[5:36 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

Kal laughed. "I've been to a con or two with a buddy of mine in the past. We mostly were out there for the areas around Mizugaki and Ogawayama for some rock climbing." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[5:46 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Mm.. Cons, huh? I've never been to one, but I've heard it could be fun," Ryunoske commented with a small shrug as she leaned against the sink. "Those are some good places for climbing though." And for burying bodies, but Ryu wasn't going to say that out loud.

"What about yourself, Kal? Where's the man of climbing from?" @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[7:06 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

"It can be fun, bit overwhelming if that's not your kind of crowd, but it's chill. People were chill enough." Kal grinned. "Tons of great climbing spots! We definitely should do a con and some climbing together, it'll be a blast."

"Lil' ol' me? I'm from the Windy City, Chicago," Kal laughed. "Born and raised." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:27 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"I'm not much of a daylight person. I don't get out much before night, but I'll take your word for it," she smiled at Kal. "Chicago..? Hm, that's interesting. I haven't been to many of the states myself. My family prefers me to stick close to home," Ryu commented as she glanced at her watch.

"Alright bud, time to wash out your hair. Lean back in the tub," she intructed Kal as she got her gloves on. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[7:29 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

"Pft, that's fine! I love going climbin' at night. Makes it even more challenging and fun." He chuckled. "And that's understandable, your family wants you close. Just whenever or if-ever you're out that way, gimme a call! I gave you one of my cards, right? Just gimme a call or a text, and we can vibe."

At Ryu's command, Kal leaned back in the tub with a grin. "Alright, I'm leanin' on back." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:32 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"If I had it my way, I would travel a bit more, but that's life," Ryunoske shrugged as she got to washing out the Kal's hair. She was a bit rough with it, but thorough. It was obvious she had done this several times before.

"I'll try to keep in contact. I can be quite busy when I'm not off at random church events," she chuckled. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[7:39 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

"Well, everyone deserves to be able to see the world and what's around." Kal hummed as Ryu rinsed out his hair. "I hope you do get the chance to travel."

"And hey, that's fine, too! You can send a text whenever, and I'll be sure to respond. It could take you like, days or weeks to respond to somethin', and that'll still be chill with me. That's how besties work." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:57 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske hummed a low tune. "Well, if I ever do get out more often, I'll definitely hit you up about it," she said with a half-hearted smile. She quickly finished the first rinse and handed Kal another towel to dry his hair.

"Alright, wanna see yourself blonde before you go straight to pink?" Ryu asked with a small chuckle. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[8:06 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

"For sure," Kal chuckled.

"Ooooo, yeah, I'd love to see myself blonde. It'll be totally weird." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:22 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Alright, come up to the mirror and see yourself in all your blonde glory then," Ryu laughed and gestured for Kal to stand up. "Not sure if I'd say blonde's your thing, but it sure is different." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[8:26 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

Kal stood up and looked at himself in the mirror. As soon as he saw himself, he started laughing.

"Jesus- Yeah, blonde's definitely not my thing. Clashes a bit too much, but hey, it's a look!" He laughed and sat back down. "I don't think I'll ever willingly do blonde in my life, if I'm honest." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:47 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu couldn't help but snicker along with Kal. "It's not the worst color you could do. Just wait until the pink comes in," she teased as she picked up the bottle of neon pink dye and shook it in front of Kal.

"I think neon green would of been worst, but even someone like me doesn't have that color." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[8:51 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

Kal laughed. "What other colors do you have, aside from hot pink? Maybe we can do a combo." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:55 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske hummed as she dug through her bag of supplies. "I got white, a more strawberry blonde color, dark blue, light blue, navy blue, orange, purple.. And neon pink," she listed. "Most of these colors are for my sisters' hairs. The neon pink was something one of them wanted to when she was thirteen. Never did it again since," she chuckled. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[9:07 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

"Oh, so neon pink is the regret choice you're havin' me do," Kal chuckled. "Well, let's see- D'you wanna stick with just the one, or hit it up with some blue? I figured I'd throw it out there that that's somethin' I'm chill with." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:11 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Hey, a gal's gotta get her money's worth. This whole tube costed me $20 bucks. I could of gotten at least two shots with that kinda money," she grinned. "I think the neon pink would be the best bet. Gotta save the blue for my hair, after all." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[9:12 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

Kal laughed. "Alright, we'll get your money's worth. Hit me up with that full on neon pink, let's do this." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:15 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske nodded and got right to it. Again, Kal's hair was split into three separate parts and Ryu painted the neon pink into each single blonde hair on his head. When all of his head was covered, Ryunoske let out a small whistle.

"It's like a strawberry hi-chew melted on your head, Knees," she chuckled. "Take a quick shower and don't come out till you don't see anymore color in the water, alright? I'll wait outside." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[9:19 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

Kal laughed. "Oh man, I'm even more excited to see it now. Alright, I'll go ahead and take a quick shower." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:25 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu gave him a thumbs up before sauntering out the bathroom. She sat by the window, propping it open so she could smoke while she waited. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[9:42 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

Kal was in there for a little bit. Since he didn’t have his own shampoos, conditioner, and bodywash, he settled for just taking off his shirt and dunking his head under the water.

Slowly, the hot pink started to lessen in the water. It took a little while, but soon, the water ran clear.

Kal stood up and grabbed his shirt, slipping it on before he grabbed a towel and rubbed his hair dry. He stepped out of the bathroom.

“Well?” Kal lower the towel to reveal his hair. “What’d you think? New hair, new me.” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:52 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske turned her head the moment she heard the bathroom door open, and her cigar nearly fell out of her mouth. "Oh my god.." She exhaled a laugh. She didn't even say anything else, opting to take a photo of Kal with her phone instead and then showing it to him.

"If you were any more pink, I'd be blind," Ryu snickered. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[10:24 PM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

Kal grinned as he leaned to see the picture. He started laughing hard to the point where he was practically giggling.

“Holy shit!! This is blinding!” He laughed. “My hair’s become a whole ass weapon!” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:35 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"If by weapon you mean local light hazard, then you'll be right about that," she laughed along with Kal. "Hell, guess this will make it easier to see you whenever you go climbing at least. Just look for something that looked like a strawberry shat on ya," Ryu snickered. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[6:05 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“Exactlyyyyy!” Kal laughed along. “Bruh- If I ever go missing, you know to look for pink hair first. It’ll be a whole ass beacon.” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:25 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"I'll make sure to tell the detectives looking for you that they need to look for mutant pink on top of nothing but pure black and muscle," she chuckled as she pat Kal's shoulder. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[8:47 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“Good, I knew I could depend on you,” Kal laughed. He reached up to finish drying off his hair. “Thanks for the hair job, now I’ll look all cool and snazzy for my fight!” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:50 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske nodded. "Course. Who are you fighting against anyways?" She asked with a curious tilt of her head. "I'll come by and watch. Gotta cheer my good buddy Knees on, after all." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[8:50 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“Aw, thanks for the support!!!” Kal laughed. “I’m fightin’ against Darcy. He’s just a lil guy. I don’t plan on going all out or anythin’, no powers, either.” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:55 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Ohh.. So you know who you're fighting then," Ryu hummed. "You don't plan on going all out? I feel like that's a little insulting to Darcy. Taking it easy on him? Only fools underestimate their foe, Kal." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[9:51 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“I guess it can be insultin’, yeah,” Kal sighed. “I’m a bit confused about his powers. He just seems like- A fragile lil’ guy, y’know? I shouldn’t underestimate him, but I don’t wanna risk hurtin’ him. Maybe I’ll see how his powers work first, and then I’ll figure out if I should use ‘em or not.” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:02 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske sighed and shook his head. "There are plenty of people who look harmless, but are the craziest out there. Don't let looks get to your head about strength," she warned. "Though, I do understand not wanting to hurt someone you know. Just don't let him get the jump on ya just because you wanted to take it easy." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[10:24 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“Ah, It’s okay, I wouldn’t mind if he got a good hit or two in,” Kal grinned. “We can see how much I’ll take.” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:40 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Nsfw/

She playfully rolled her eyes at that. "You're quite the masochist, aren't you, Knees?" Ryu teased. "Well, whatever the case, don't go around being too much of an idiot." @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[10:43 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

“Maybe, maybe not,” Kal laughed. A bit of pink rose to his cheeks. Maybe so. “Don’t worry, I’ll be fineeee!!! What’s the worst that can happen?”

He chuckled. “Think I might go patch me up, if I’m honest. You knocked me quite a bit back there.” @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:48 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Uh huh. I'll take that as a yes," Ryu smirked. "The worst is you get knocked on your ass by a 'lil guy', but I suppose you wouldn't mind that much."

She gave Kal and nod and waved him away. "Mhm. Go do your think, pinkie. I'll make sure to clean up the bathroom. I'll see ya around," Ryu smiled. @🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐

[11:24 AM]🌙Vanessa🌙 | Zerada⚡+ Kal⭐:

Kal let out another easy-going laugh as he glanced to the side. The guy was a walking disaster.

“Thanks, Rio. I’ll see you ‘round!” Kal offered Ryu a two-finger salute as he made his leave from the room..

@Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

ryu and glass 😳

[7:39 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske walked Glass back to their shared room, before heading towards the opposite bedroom of her own. She figured Glass would prefer to be in a bed where Roque hadn't been in.

"I do have to say, we're definitely going to get an earful from that old lady later," Ryu chuckled slightly. @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:48 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Glass clung to Ryu as she led her into her room, and brought her over to her bed, which she sat on top of. "Eh, figured as much. I'm not easily scared by authority figures." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:00 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Heh, I figured," Ryunoske smiled as she shrugged her jacket off her shoulders. It was a subtle flex, even beneath her suit, you could see how big she was. "Just tell me if anything hurts, alright? This is my first time with someone like you." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:16 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Glass hummed appreciatively as Ryu pulled off her jacket. She let her shoulder-straps fall loosely around her arms. "Yeah, I'll let you know. Just treat me gently, will you?" @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:32 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Of course. You don't have to worry. I'll treat you right, baby girl," Ryunoske said with a soft, yet affirmative tone.

(We can fade to black from here lol) @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:39 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

(ye)

After everything had been said and done, Glass laid satisfied and half-asleep over Ryu, the afternoon light glinting prettily over her exposed body. She was content not to move, at least not for the time being. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:54 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Sitting slightly upright, Ryunoske had propped open the near by window to smoke once again. She had one arm wrapped around Glass while her other hand held a cigar. The light bouncing off of Glass speckled over the several colored tattoos on Ryu's skin, decorating them in a pretty glitter.

She let Glass lay there for as long as she wanted. @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[11:49 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

After a few moments of content silence, Glass hummed. "How long do y'think we've got before the eye lady comes barging in on us?" @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[11:56 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"I'd give her ten minutes if she's really angry," she chuckled softly. "But since she hasn't already knocked, maybe she's in a better mood today."

[11:56 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

@innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[11:57 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"She seems like she's never in a good mood." Glass laughed. "Though, I'm not complaining about extra time in peace. At least she knocks." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[2:53 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Well, knocking is the least she could do if she's already watched everything," Ryu mused. "Did you at least enjoy yourself?" He asked. @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[3:42 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"I did, I did." Glass hummed easily. "You're pretty good in bed. Can't complain there." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[5:53 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske smiled and planted a gentle kiss on the top of Glass' head. "I'm glad you're satisfied. Wouldn't want one of your wishes wasted on a guy you found half-assed." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[6:19 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Yeah. That would've sucked." Glass hummed. "Don't know who else here would be willing and interested, unless I'm suddenly gonna be into Peregrine." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[6:39 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Nsfw/

She playfully rolled her eyes, smiling a bit more. "He's a bit of a fool, so I doubt he'll be the most satisfying person to fuck. I'm supposed to meet up with him later at some time. I doubt anyone else has accepted his advances besides me." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:18 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Glass let out a breathy laugh. "He definitely seems like he's overcompensating for something. Wouldn't be surprised if he's actually terrible." She sighed. "Guys like Peregrine... the world's got no shortage of 'em." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:30 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"He's a bit of an interesting character. I'll let you know if he's good or not," she laughed. Though, Ryu gave Glass an intrigued glance at her next comment. "You think so? Seems like you haven't met the best of men till me," Ryu joked. @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:32 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Glass let out a dry laugh. "Can't say that I have. That's why I don't typically date them." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:43 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"That so?" Ryu hummed. "So, what sort of people do you typically date then?" @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:45 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Depends. Goth girls, punk babes, the occasional really femme gal who listens to pop music." Glass hummed. "Usually I don't go for anything super serious, cause of the dying. So the people I date are the kinds of people who like casual relationships." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:52 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske's smile grew into a small grin and she chuckled. "I see. Given up on anything serious so when you do die, it's easier on ya?" Ryu asked, but it felt more like a comment than a question. @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[8:53 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Easier for them, more like it. I hate the idea of anyone sitting around mourning me. Not good for them, not good for me." Glass hummed. "I won't care. I'll be dead. But I don't wanna put someone through that." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:57 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

That made Ryu chuckle. "That so? How kind of you," Ryu replied and gently ran her hand through Glass' hair. "Well, if that's how you think, then what exactly do your flings fulfil for you? Is it just nice to have someone to lay next to sometimes?" @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[9:59 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"You gonna think I'm cruel if I say it passes the time? That, and I get lonely. Nice to know someone cares, even for a fleeting moment. Love feels good, and it's one of the few vices I can still indulge in." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:29 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu almost snickered at that and she moved Glass to give her a small hug. "Nah. I think most people would agree with that sentiment. It'd probably be better if more people were willing to admit it, actually." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[10:33 PM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Hah. Guess more people should listen to me, then. I've got so much wisdom, it's all gonna go to waste when I die young." Glass laughed dryly, but fell into Ryu's embrace. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[11:42 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Perhaps you should add 'write a book of all my wisdom and advice' to your bucket list. I'm sure you could fit it in while visiting the mountains or something," she chuckled. "Well, either way, you at least finished one thing. Now when you die, there's one less regret." @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:02 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Ooh, maybe I will. Though, writing a book seems like a lot of work." Glass laughed. "Yup. One more thing crossed off the list. I'll die happy yet." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:52 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Perhaps, but at least that way, you can pass on your knowledge without having to be there," Ryu hummed as she drew circles on Glass' back. "Did you want to shower first? Or are you cool with us showering together?" @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[7:54 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"I'll shower first. I don't take too much time in there." Glass hummed, and pulled herself up. She did a few stretches before leaving to the bathroom. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:13 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu nodded and let Glass go. She sat up against the headboard of the bed, continuing to smoke as she waited for Glass to finish. @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[9:26 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

Glass was fairly quick in the shower, just like she'd said. A few minutes later, she emerged from the bathroom, wearing her normal day-clothes again. "Shower's all yours, whenever you want it." Glass hummed. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:13 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Mhm," Ryu hummed in response, sparing Glass a glance before putting her cigar out. "Gotcha," she briefly said as she got up and went to the bathroom. She washed up relatively quick and came back out to the room with a towel hanging around her neck and waist.

"I'm going to hit up the dining hall. What are you going to do?" @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[10:14 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"Ehhh, I was thinking I might walk around the island some more. Not much for me in the dining hall, so this might be where we part ways for now." Glass shrugged, sitting backwards at her desk chair. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:29 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu nodded and gave Glass a small smile. "Alright then. I'll see you later, babe," she said as she walked over to her room. After a few minutes, Ryu changed into another casual suit and headed out. @innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄)

[10:30 AM]innsjo (glass🎸+ darcy🖋+ npcs❄):

"See ya later, handsome!" Glass gave Ryu a wave and a smile before heading out, herself. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

hannah's letter

[11:36 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

...

Hannah knocked at the door. She sat outside for a bit waiting, before figuring no one was going to answer. She opened up the door and walked in, quickly figuring out which room was Ryu's from the scent.

She walked up to his bed and scribbled some kind of note down on the post it. She pulled off her necklace and dropped it on to the bed, wrapping the post it note around the cord.

Once that was done, Hannah turned and left.

roque and ryu reunion

[6:25 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske didn't mind the death grip Roque had on his arm. She figured being blind for the first time would do that to anyone. Bringing Roque here, Ryu took notice of the note on her bed, as well as the necklace.

"Give me a second to start the shower," Ryu told Roque as she settled the woman on the opposite side of her bed from the note. She picked up the note to read as she moved to the bathroom. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[6:29 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque sat on the side of the bed, tapping her foot on the ground... Somewhat anxiously.

The note attached to the necklace was short, and written in a handwriting that didn't look much better than chicken scratch.

'I decided to leave early. I think Bonaparte would be disappointed in me. So you should hold on to him until I feel responsible enough again. Please be careful with him he's my best friend. Bye.'

Then on the back was her phone number, email address, and her physical address in Osceola. @ajjjjjjjj

[7:00 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Hm. So Hannah left her with the shark. Ryu wondered what exactly she should do with it now that Hannah had already returned. Stuffing the note into her pant pocket, Ryu continued to the bathroom and turned on the shower. Once it was at a nice temperature, she headed back to Roque.

"Alright, let's get you cleaned up," Ryu said as she gently took Roque's arm. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:06 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque gripped on to her with the same strength as she had before, even though their trip to the bathroom was much shorter.

"I guess it'll be a lot of shorter of a shower since I have no hair. Ha." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:21 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu gave a small hum in response before she helped Roque into the shower. "You got a lot of blood on ya. It'll take a second to get all of that cleaned off," she commented. If Ryu had a nickle for every time she had to help a woman on this island bathe blood off of her body, she would have two, which isn't a lot, but it was strange it happened twice. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:23 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

Roque stood under the warm water, her body seeming to calm a bit as she felt it.

"There's no one else in here, right?" Roque asked. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[7:38 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Nope. Just me and you babe," Ryu said as she started to help rinse off the blood from Roque's body. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[7:46 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Good, good." Roque nodded.

Beyond the blood, Roque was just pretty dirty. Dust, sweat, and general grime from not showering over how many days. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:01 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu worked diligently, but was pretty gentle. She used a rag to dab Roque's face and it turned a pretty pink and brown after she washed everything off.

"What do you plan to do after you get off this island?" Ryu suddenly asked. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:10 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"After this? Hmm, well I obviously need to cash in on my new look- I think some of my fans would be going crazy with it. Probably go back to touring once I'm confident enough. So, same ol same ol, probably." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[8:23 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"I see. Sounds like fun," Ryu smiled as she finished cleaning Roque. "Do you want to soak for a little bit, or are you ready to step out?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[8:26 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Unless you had something else in mind? No harm in extending my hiatus, my schedule is pretty open.. Taking an actual vacation would be nice while my eyes are coming back in." Roque said. "And I think I'm ready to get out now." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:07 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu grabbed a towel and shut off the water, letting it all drain before drying Roque. "Are you asking me out on a date, my beloved? You know you can just say you want to spend some time with me before you have to go back to work," she chuckled. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[9:14 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Maybe I am." Roque chuckled. "I'm just sayin, spending some time on a tropical island and drinking and getting massages sounds pretty good. I miss feeling the damn sun." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:29 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu hummed. "Perhaps I'll take you on your offer. I think my lady deserves to have some R & R after everything," she laughed and wrapped Roque up in the towel. She carefully picked her up from the tub before bringing Roque back to the bed.

"I don't have many things that you would usually wear.. would sweatpants and a pullover be okay?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[9:31 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"That sounds fine to me- I'll just need a pair of your underwear too. I'd ask for a bra, but I doubt you have any, let alone one that would fit me." Roque shrugged. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[9:58 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu nodded. "I only have boxers, hope you don't mind," Ryunoske said as she grabbed a pair. "And you're right, I don't wear bras, so you may have to find a spare one somewhere else. The pull over should be big enough to cover all of you though," she shrugged. @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[10:02 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Boxers aren't what I usually wear, but eh, why not change it up a bit." Roque said. "Shame you don't have a spare full black leather getup just for me to borrow. When I get home I'll have to send a few sets off with you just to have in case I need them." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:07 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryunoske shrugged. "I try to wear things that allow me flexibility," she commented as she handed Roque the items. "Do you want me to help you dress as well?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[10:09 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Why need to be flexible when you can just have someone else do all the work for you?" Roque chuckled. "And sure, that would probably be good. I don't want to end up looking extra stupid with anything on backward." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:28 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Well, when you're the one doing the work, flexibility is nice," Ryu chuckled as she started dressing Roque as well. "That's why we make the perfect pair, beloved. You're here to be lovely, I'm here to work," Ryu hummed.

"I'm sad the hoodie covers your best features, but at least you don't be dirty and cold anymore." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[10:31 AM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"I'm sure I'll be finding my old clothes at some point soon, and I'll happily change back in to some more form fitting attire again." Roque said. As soon as Ryunoske was all done, Roque pushed herself up to her feet. "I think after this, I'll be fine to never have to see snow ever again. Well- feel it ever again." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[11:32 AM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"I'm surprised they didn't take your items and tossed them," Ryu shrugged. "But yeah, colder weather isn't exactly my favorite either. I'm planning to go talk to the old hag soon. Do you happen to know where she is?" @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[12:09 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Uh. Well, last I was with her she dropped me off at the dining hall after she failed to kill me again. But that was a while ago now." Roque said. "I wouldn't be surprised if she was outside flying around. She's crazy." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[3:28 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu hummed and tapped her finger against her knee. "Alright. I'll have to take my chances in seeing her, I suppose. The worm and daughter girls told me the old hag is most likely to know everything we need." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[3:30 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"I'd offer to come along, but I'm quite sure the next time Petrai sees me she won't be so hesitant on the draw." Roque said. ".. How long do you think you'll be gone for? I would prefer to be with the group or someone when we are retrieving the powers." @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[3:35 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

"Not sure. It depends on how quick Petrai makes it on me," Ryu hummed. "You should probably go sit out in the dining hall again if you want to be around when things start happening. I'll take you there." @Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline

[3:36 PM]Mads|Roque🩸+Hannah🦈+Madeline:

"Thank you, dear." Roque smiled and reached her arm out toward Ryu. @Aj | Ryunoske+Titania

[10:24 PM]Aj | Ryunoske+Titania:

Ryu easily took Roque's arm and helped her up once again. Off to the ⁠dining-hall once more.
