Thread: [NEXUS] WATCHTOWER 8: It's Curtains for You!

[Courtyard - Orchard]

"Well, we're at this tower by a waterfall. It's called WATCHTOWER. I live here too. It's really nice, but not quite as nice as living in a forest. I don't mind though, because my friends are here. Anyway, WATCHTOWER is an organization that fights big threats to the world." Sakura says.

[Harnel's Room]

"Well, I don't really have any of those dresses here sadly. Wasn't really a point to wear them again until very recently." The mage replies. "Do you have any clothes I could wear in private though? I know you bought some jeans after all. Otherwise we could just... well be together." Cessie once again relaxes against his firm chest.

[Harnel's Room]

Harnel wraps his arms around her, and the end of his tail begins moving up her legs, up her dress, "Together sounds pretty good right now." and with that, unless she stops him - Which I doubt - He'll begin working on the laces at the back of her dress.

[Harnel's Room]

Cessie won't stop him, she is in fact quite eager at removing his clothes as well as he starts to move his tail up her leg. As her dress and other clothes hits the floor they are soon followed by his shirt and trousers and soon enough the sound of curtains can be heard through the room.

((Which is a perfect moment for me to deadtime.))

[Outside]

While waiting for an answer from Wenomir, Boris continues looking at all the plant life surrounding him. It would be useless, since neither the grass nor treeline matched his ghillie suit. However, he would at least be able to determine the colors of the new suit he'd be making for the next few weeks.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

It sounds like a fascinating place. You used to live in the forest then? How did you end up in WATCHTOWER?
The voice queries.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

"I used to live in a natural world. I lived there my whole life until we came here. Me and Sarget I mean. We just sort of wandered into this world. Then we saw this place and investigated."

Sakura seems somewhat embarrassed. "I decided to stay because a friend of mine was here. From my old home. His name is Adir." If Lirda can pick up on Sakura's emotions,it'll feel many a warm and fuzzy feeling at the mention of Adir.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

Could you tell me about Adir and Sarget? Who are they?
Lirda seems to be quite a curious person- but then again, her senses seem to be fairly limited, and she does say she's been locked away for years. Maybe she's just a bit deprived.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

Sakura is more than glad to answer her questions. "Sarget is a treant. I'm bound to him because all dryads are bound to trees. They aren't usually treants though. I'm happy he is. I can trust him with anything."

"Adir is very special to me. I guess the word they use here is boyfriend. I love him very much." More warm fuzzy feelings.

Toe speaks up. "Although, we haven't exactly been hired yet. We were let in and were waiting for someone to help us out with that."

"As long as you're willing to help, I think anyone can fit in here." Adir says, propping himself up on the top of the couch so he can look at the gargoyles better. "And, uh, I can help you join."

He hops up, heading off to one side of the room and grabbing a little stack of three sheets. Which he hands out to the gargoyles enthusiastically.

[Main Room]

"Great." The gargoyles take the forms.

They hand the forms back to Adir. "Thanks for getting us set up." Tic says. "We'll be getting to work right now."

And with that they hed out the door and fly up to the higher parts of WATCHTOWER. They'll settle into ascetically pleasing places.

[Main Room --> Outside]

"I... uh..." Adir says, stepping out to watch them settle. Gargoyles. Right.

"Okey-dokey." He looks around, trying to find Sakura, and probably heads over with a smile. "Hey, what's going on?"

[Courtyard - Orchard]

Sakura had been staring off in a random direction when Adir approached, with a smile on her face. The smile doesn't change too much when he speaks up, except for widening a bit.

"Oh, hey Adir. Just... thinking." She's not sure whether or not to tell Adir about Lirda yet. She figures she'll ask first.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

"Do I have to a pay you a penny or can I ask what about?" Adir says casually, stopping in front of her.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

Sakura giggles a bit. "You of course." She tries to take his hands in hers.

It occurs to me that Sakura is a very bad lier. Of course she is telling the truth here and she wasn't really thinking she was hiding something from him.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

"Well, naturally." Adir says, smirking at her. He takes her hands and squeezes gently, looking around at the garden. "I love what you've done with this. It's... really nice."

[Courtyard - Orchard]

"Thanks Adir." It makes her really happy to hear that. She put a lot of effort into it. "That means a lot." She leans in to give him a kiss.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

Adir smiles, compassionately rather than foolishly for once, and kisses her back. The stag offers an inquisitive expression. "Say... I was wondering. You still wanna learn how to shoot, right?" Wonder why he's asking again.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

Sakura stays standing close to his, looking up at him with her brown eyes. She nods slightly. "Yeah. But you've asked lots of times before. What's up?"

Courtyard - Orchard

"Well... I think we oughta get some live practice." Adir says, smiling. Hopefully she won't get the wrong idea before he says, "Some hunting, I mean."

[Courtyard - Orchard]

"Oh." The dryad suddenly looks a lot more apprehensive, but she nods determinedly. "Yeah. Alright. So, how do we do that?"

She really does need the live practice.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

"Wait here." Adir says, heading back inside momentarily. Trying not to pay attention to any sounds he might hear coming from Harnel's room. >.>

The stag returns moments later, holding a regular old hunting rifle. He hands it off to Sakura, smiling a little. "If you're ready."

I suppose, depending on how long it'll take, we can stay in this thread or head for Outside again. Warning, though, gotta deadtime pretty soon.

[Courtyard - Orchard]

Going to Outside seems like a plan. Best to put these things in the proper locations I say.

Sakura fidgets nervously while Adir is gone. She bites her lip as she thinks about what she's about to do.

When Adir gets back she's put on a straight face. She takes the gun and nods. "Okay, I'm ready."

[Courtyard - Orchard]

Adir nods, hoping she can manage this without a lot of fuss, and will lead her into the forest again!

[Courtyard - Orchard]

And Sakra follows. Hopefully this time the trip is better than the last. >.>

((So that Shadowcaller has something to respond to when she gets on and I'm not awake...))

[Harnel's Room]

Eventually, the curtain rises, and Harnel lays next to Cessie, smiling happily at her. He'll probably have his arms and tail wrapped around her, holding her close to him in a loving embrace.

He says almost embarrassed, "I think that was the best one yet."

[Harnel's Room]

Cessie is still panting slightly but nods slowly, "Yeah..." Harnel really have more stamina then the poor mage.

"That was wonderful..." She says with another pant, too tired to even move at the moment, just relaxing in in his embrace.

"So I guess I have to wear jeans for one day now?" Cessie asks as she have recovered a bit more. I don't really think she is used to having a half-dragon in bed just yet. "I mean... I do have another thing for you later, besides that. I already promised going around in jeans so I guess this in combination what we are going to do later will have to be my gift for you."

That about sums it up, yes. If they're brought together, the world will end. Thing is, since there's a lot of them, it's not exactly an emergency like the last two big world-ending gigs.

[Harnel's Room]

"Another thing?" he asks, curious, "A surprise for me?" he smiles.

[Harnel's Room]

"It's nothing special really." Cessie replies, closing her eyes slightly as she relaxes once again. "I'll show you later, once we both have taken a bath. That was pretty intense." The mage let's her hand circle around his groin a bit too exhausted too even move out of the bed at the moment.
