[Nexus] Harnel's Plots

[Halae]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

Greed lets out a large sigh and rests his head down next to Cessie. He looks angry, but somber. "There is more to it, Cessie. I wish to be more. More for you. More for the world, so that I may share it with you. That is why I wish to be a dragon in truth. Because I love you."

"But fine. You've made your point. How about this; you keep a transformation made, and no further changes will be forced upon you."

[Shadowcaller]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

"I carry no transformations at the moment." Cessie replies. "I took care of them earlier so I'm not sure how that's going to work, or why it's so important to you. In fact, why don't you explain that? You of everyone must know after all." She asks.

[Halae]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

"Because my desires are what drive this amalgamation forth. Greed influences everything I do; Romance desires you, Valor wishes to aid people, Lust wants sex, Paranoia want to know how others respond. Everything in this place is a result of a desire in the mind; it is one of the most basic principles of an individual. So why do I desire you to be changed? Because the whole desires what I do, and that is your mind and your body, as much of it as we can get. And so I keep pushing thoughts forward, doing these 'stupid' things. Because I will always want more, and that will never end."

"I have offered my compromise. A Transformation of a choice made by the collective during consciousness, and no other changes will be made again, to the self or to you."

[Shadowcaller]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

"And all these things somehow combines into wanting my breasts to be bigger?" She can't help but almost giggle at this conversation. It seemed so silly when she thought about it. Greed tried to look so big and important but in reality he might be even more pathetic then lust in his desires.

[Halae]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

Greed's look is utterly flat. The most mind boggling flat face a dragon can manage.

"Yes."

Well, he is important to the whole. It just seems he's kind of petty. Harnel doesn't really have much to desire these days.

[Shadowcaller]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

Now the sorceress can't keep herself from laughing anymore and bursts into a fit of giggles as she hears Greed's reply. "So my boobs are the twin stars which planet Harnel revolves around?" This seems extremely hilarious to her. "Okay, at first I thought this was a physical thing. Men wanting large breasted women, but apparently it's something much, much greater to you Harnel." She continues, hardly able to keep herself from laughing out loud again. "I have honestly no idea what to say, I guess I'm charmed in some way? Should I start getting jealous that my breast get more attention then me?"

[Halae]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

Greed continues to look at her flatly for a moment

"Right, I think we're done here." Greed says, standing up and walking in the direction of the Sanctum. "We'll be having that discussion once I wake up."

She has the chance to stop him from walking away if she so chooses.

[Shadowcaller]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

The sorceress takes a moment to gather her bearings, in a way she felt sorry for greed, he shared Harnel's pride but was cursed by his own pettiness and those two didn't work very well together.
It felt strange to think that Valor and the others actually feared this confused dragon.

"Look, Greed is it? If you want to discuss this, perhaps I should mention how demanding it might seem to change your own body like that. Not only to me but my friends as well. I have no idea how Sakura, Hope, Adir or even Arik might react to that but it's possible their opinion of me lessens." She tells him.

[Halae]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

More feared how much power he holds over the mind. Just because he's petty doesn't mean he's not powerful.

Greed turns back to face Cessie, "Then how is this for a compromise - I speak to your greed as well? We find something you want, whether you realize such or not, and you provide something for us, hmm?"

[Shadowcaller]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

"You should know what you want subconsciously is not always what you want consciously. Or perhaps you do want to be a woman?" The mage asks with a raised eyebrow.

[Halae]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

"I want to know what it's like," Greed says simply, "The conscious mind thus far simply dislikes the idea for the embarassment of it. However relevant that may be to the topic at hand, it does not change the fact that you avoided a response."

[Shadowcaller]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

"I'd like to make my decisions consciously, I don't trust my greed more then I trust you. I can discuss this with Harnel, sure, but I can't promise anything." The sorceress replies.

[Halae]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

"Hmph. Very well then. Feel free to look around. I believe you appeared in the memories? Enjoy them, I suppose." Greed says, finally taking wing and going back to his cave. Damn woman and her logic.

[Shadowcaller]

[Harnel's Mindscape]

"I can go through the memories later if I so wish." She can? "Right now I like to talk with my husband so I can get this over with." She tells greed and will then attempt to go back to her body.

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

Cessie will be able to get back to her body without too much fuss. Harnel, on the other hand, is still going to be entirely asleep unless Cessie makes an effort to wake him up. The only change from when he went to sleep seems to be that his tail has reach up and warpped itself around Cessie's leg.

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

The mage will give him a light shake, "Harnel? Wake up." She tells him gently while stroking his tail slowly.

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

Harnel opens his eyes slowly, looking at Cessie curiously, "Dream I had involed me with nice hair, and then me as a dragon having hostile negotiations with you. Does that sound about right?"

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

She smiles back, "What interesting parts you remember, but yes, that last part especially. Apparently your subconscious want to change me which isn't really a surprise at all is it?"

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

"I remember something about an agreement, but I can't remember the details. Everything is hazy. What exactly happened?"

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

The mage briefly explains what happened while she were in the mindscape, leaving a few inappropriate details. Like how she felt about Romance and just vaguely describes her encounter with Lust in a humorous manner.

"...problem is, I have already made up my mind about this. I'm not going to transform myself for greed. I refuse to. I mean, wouldn't you feel like you forced me to do this if I agreed to it?" She asks her husband. "I do have an other idea though if you're willing to listen."

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

Harnel has sat up by this point, listening to Cessie's recounting. It's kind of odd hearing about the aspects of your mind altogether, and in description too. Of particular note is the way she describes Romance, and Harnel isn't sure what to make of that, though it's obvious she liked the way he acted.

"Yeah, It would feel forced. What did you have in mind?"

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

"We do nothing, but if, for some reason things happen, it stay that way. The new bra I bought is besides self-cleaning also making sure I look the same. So I don't have to worry about that either." She replies.

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

Harnel nods, "Works for me, and it should satisfy my greed. Are you sure you're alright with it, though? I imagine this is something a bit od for you to agree to. It's certainly weird to hear it."

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

The mage shakes her head, "This might be the nexus, but barring yourself, I don't see many sources of such changes. If any at all. If greed decides to do something however that goes again us doing nothing don't it?" She asks with a smile, it wasn't foolproof sure, but at least she were mentally prepared for the alternative.

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

Harnel nods, "Right then. This should work out well," Harnel chuckles, "I hope you realize that this is just incentive for greed to kick into high gear and change you as soon as possible, right? I'm not going to go out of my way or anything, but still."

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

"Harnel..." She replies softlly but firmly as she attempts to take his hands and look into his eyes. "I also intend this to be a test, I know you aren't greed. I didn't fall in love with Greed and he isn't the one controlling you. You have proven that you easily fall under his sway at times, but this time I really like you to try to keep him from influencing you in this matter. I don't mind you being greedy when it comes to other things, we all have flaws, even you. But in this matter, don't let greed control you love."

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

Harnel squeezes her hands, "I never said I was going to let it happen Cessie, just that it might come up. I'll do my best, and that's a promise."

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

"Good and as far as I know, you honor your promises." She replies and then goes to hug the half-dragon before laying down in the bed besides him. "So how tired are you feeling? I know Kirin is taking care of the twins but do you think we should check on them anyway?"

[Halae]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

Harnel will move over to Cessie for a kiss, "I think kirin can handle them for a little while longer, don't you?"

[Shadowcaller]

[Mithar Keep - The Master Bedroom]

The mage returns the kiss and smiles. "If you don't mind my flat features I don't see any problems with it..." And with those words the scene will close with a curtain unless Harnel have anything else to say about that.
