McBish's Plots

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

"Oh. Right. Eh, maybe after we tire ourselves out by cleaning up the treasure." Reinholdt suggests. He forgot that some people don't sleep on floors like he has.

Either way, Reinholdt starts disentangling himself and sitting up.

[McBish]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

Vel much prefers soft comfy things to sleep on. And while the floor is carpeted it is still harder then she would take a nap on. "Sounds like a plan." She gets up with a bit of a stretch to help gather up the rest of the treasure into whatever bags Reinholdt has ready.

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

Reinholdt does in fact, produce several more bags for them to scoop the treasure into. So long as they concentrate on actually getting the treasure rather than casting fervent glances at each other and bowling each other over for make-out sessions, then it shouldn't take too long to get it all.

[McBish]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

Well with the promise of a cuddly nap Vel manages to keep herself in check. She keeps her hands to herself, though there may still be a few fervent glances, just not enough to slow her down in picking up the gold. Once they are all done she flops into the couch to claim her postion first.

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

That's not very polite of a host to her guest.

Reinholdt hammerspaces all the treasure bags when they're done and moves to the couch, looking to see where there's room for him. If any.

[Deathkeeper]

[Woods]

"Yeah. Good call." Calvin keeps an eye in the direction the song is coming from as they pass it and it fades into nothing. Traveling up the hills Arty finds the grove of Aseke trees. They look similar to willow trees with branches hanging down. Their leaves about dinner plate sized and a vibrant green.

Woods

Well, that didn't seem particularly...heckling. Arty looks about to check if anything else is around he should be aware of before reaching out and trying to pluck a leaf off a low-hanging branch by the stem.

[McBish]

Woods

Well it depends on if Arty knows what he is looking for. The grass is a bit greener in this part of the woods, tropical flowers can be seen growing out of place, there is a small ring of mushrooms growing around one of the trees. These subtle signs point to this place being the home to a fey.

Calvin doesn't seem to notice this. Or at least he doesn't make the connection to this lush part of the woods to the fey.

There is nothing to stop Arty from starting to pick the leaves off the trees though.

===================

Heaven's Gate Apartments

Vel scoots over a bit, still stretched over the length of the couch but there is room to lay down beside her. She pats the space invinting him to join her. "I think you said something about a nap?"

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

"Yeah. You take naps regularly right?" All the massaging and kissing and treasuring is tiring!

Reinholdt tentatively lies down next to her, trying not to make her uncomfortable.

[Deathkeeper]

Woods

Arty doesn't notice all the signs, but he does notice the odd flowers and he was already a bit distrusting of the place due to its source.
"Hello? I have reason to believe that I have need of a few of these so it would be nice if someone who might object to that to let me know now." He says in one breath. See what he meant about asking nicely?

[McBish]

Heaven's Gate Apartment's

Vel doesn't seem uncomfortable at all. She quickly tries to wrap her arms around his waist, and intertwine their legs so neither feels squished or about to fall off. "I like to sleep when I am tired, and I often stay up far to late. My job lets me take breaks whenever I feel like it. I love naps." She says adjusting a throw pillow under her head to make room for Reinholdt to share it.

======================

Woods

Calvin glances over at Arty wondering why he is asking nobody for permision. Then there is a quiet noise of someone coming from behind them. It would be hard to pick up unless you have very good ears. Calvin does and leans forward to warn Arty but before he does a voice calls out.

"Hello?" Soft but clear, very much a female voice. When she peers around one of the trees behind them she seems curious but ready to scamper away. She is short, 4'6", and despite her humoinoid shape has the fur of a deer, short soft and orange with white spots. She is wearing a white dress made of some sort of flowers and looks like she just got out of the water.

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartment's

Reinholdt smiles and accepts the position and the pillow, though it does make him red again.

"It's nice, being your own employer." He gives a rather big, cat-like yawn covering his mouth with his hand.

[Deathkeeper]

Woods

"Hello. Arty says as he turns around. Do you live here? I was told to come but I don't think I was given the full story."

[McBish]

Heaven's Gate Apartment's

"I agree, though sometimes nerve wracking. But if you are good at something, no reason to rely on others to tell you what to do." She giggles as he yawns pulling back to give him room for his hand. When he is all done she leans in to rest her forehead on his her eyes closed and a smile on her face.

===================

Woods

The deer lady steps carefuly out from behind the tree noding. "Yes I live here. Why would someone tell you to come here?" She says peering past Arty at Calvin on his back then back to Arty. "I don't get many visitors." She says sounding almost sad and very lonely.

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartment's

Reinholdt falls quiet. He watches her for a bit, before closing his eyes as well and relaxing to get to sleep. It all felt so... surreal right now.

[Deathkeeper]

Woods

"My friend and I were attacked by large furry beasts which drained his energy. I was told they might find us again and that a few leaves from this tree might help prevent them from tracking him. It seemed kinda odd to me, but the old man didn't rob me when he had the chance, so I thought I would at least play on the side of caution." Arty explains.

[McBish]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

Reinholdt might be able to hear or maybe even feel Vel's heart beating quickly as they lay together. She quickly drifts to sleep cuddling up with Reinholdt on the couch. She is a sound sleeper and has a good internal clock so she doesn't have to worry about setting an alarm. In a little over an hour she will wake up, unless something wakes her first.

====================

Woods

She moves around them, circling them to keep her distance looking them over. "Yes, with Aseke leaves covering him they would have a harder time sensing his magic." A small frown appears on her face at the mention of his magic. "But they are my trees."

[Deathkeeper]

Woods

Arty was expecting that response.
"Is there something I can do for you to act as recompense? I respect your domain but my friend could die if those things find us again."

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

She might want to get her heart checked. That can't be good for it.
To be honest, Reinholdt expected her to be more used to such things. She seemed like something of a flirt to him back at the tavern. Not that it's bugging Rein that he was wrong. He's glad he was. It's just a bit confusing to him.

Anyways, nothing happens within the hour that I'm aware of.

[McBish]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

It's not every day that she runs into a beautiful rich treasure hunter that seems more then happy to cuddle up with her. While she does seem pefectly comforable with physical intimacy, and clearly enjoys spending time with Reinholdt she still holds herself back for some reason.

When she starts to wake up she shifts and stretches out a bit. When her eyes flutter open she will lean in to kiss Reinholdt, either to wake him up or to say hello if he woke up first.

==============

Woods

The woman takes a step closer standing up on her tip toes to get a better look at Calvin on the back of Arty. "I could make you a cloak, but I would need a favor from both of you." As she looks them over she looses some of her childlike apperance. A much older and more calculating look crosses her face as she considers how to best use these two.

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

He did not, because waking up sucks. That's not to say he wasn't aware of her waking up, he just didn't feel like moving or opening his eyes.

But a kiss will suffice. "Time already?" Reinholdt protests.

[Deathkeeper]

Woods

"My friend can't walk without difficulty, so I doubt he could do anything I can't besides fit into a small room. And it can't be anything that takes too long since the cloak will do us no good if there's a pack of beasts on our rears by the time we earn it."
Sadly, centaur society's high value on honor doesn't make them terribly well-mannered, although Arty does make his words sound moderately polite.

[McBish]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

Vel nods. "Yeah, I should start getting ready before Jay comes to pick me up. Sorry." She says aplogetically nuzzling his neck just a bit, her legs untangling from his and stretching out.

====================

Woods

The fey nods understanding. "Yes I understand. Your task shouldn't take too long, and I would need time to make a proper cloak for him anyways. He can stay here with me. It will be safe for him, and we can discuss his favor to me."

Calvin frowns a bit and whispers to Arty. "I'm not sure this is a good idea." But having no better ideas he says it without much conviction.

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

Reinholdt turns and moves out the way a bit, sitting up and stretching himself. "It's ok. I fear I may have overstayed as it is." The portrait sketch thing was done ages ago!

[Deathkeeper]

Woods

"No offense Miss, but my friend is in no condition to defend himself at all, and while I'm sure you mean him no ill will I'm hesitant to leave him alone with someone I've met mere moments before." Arty says.

[McBish]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

"Well I'm glad you did." She says getting up off the couch with one last big stretch. "And you are welcome back to overstay here again." She says smiling and offering another hug if Reinholdt stands up.

=================

Woods

The little doe woman looks surprised. "Oh. I thought you wanted my help. He is hurt, I can help with that. I'm good at healing." She says slowly starting to approach the pair.

"I'm not hurt, just drained." His wounds are healing very quickly given a few more days and there won't be a sign of them.

She tilts her head and keeps walking forward, bare feet steeping softly on the grass. "Your injuries are buried deep. I don't want to harm anyone. But if you want the gift of the Aseke tree's I need you to do me a favor." She holds out a small hand for Arty to take. "Trust me."

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

Hug! Though Reinholdt's starting to feel awkward with all the touchy feely. This isn't like him usually.

"So just to confirm, we're meeting up in some several days to go to a restaurant and then come here and view the finished painting, right?" Rein doesn't want to get that mixed up.

[McBish]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

Vel loves the touchy feely stuff. If she goes too long without physical contact with other people she tends to get all emotional in a less then fun way. Rein didn't read her wrong about being a flirt, but for her it is more about getting to have someone to be close to then the sex.

She nods not noticing any akwardness Reinholdt might be showing. "That's the plan. You just give me a days heads up once you find a place. I think three or so days should give me plenty of time to paint."

[Deathkeeper]

Woods

"Just tell me what you want before I agree to anything." Arty says, not unkindly.

[McBish]

Woods

There is a golden hind in these woods. He is quick and shy. I would like you to deliver a gift to him from me. If you do this for me I will make your friend a cloak to hide him from the senses of the beasts that hunt him." She continues to hold out her hand for him to take.

[Reinholdt]

Heaven's Gate Apartments

"All right. I'll start looking. Thanks for inviting me over by the way. It was fun." Reinholdt admits.

He still wants to sneak a peek at that sketchbook sometime and see what she drew.
