[Nexus] The Nest/Karyana's Forest (And Additional Locales) V:

[Beans]

[AP]
She nods, snuggling.

[Meetup]
They keep sleeping peacefully.

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

Velendri smiles, going to pull Aseti into her lap.

[Meetup]

Then Talina dresses, and goes looking for... I think Marina was the name of the person whose house they stayed at after the first meetup?

[Beans]

[AP]
She snuggles and smiles.
---
[Meetup]
Marina it is indeed; she smiles when she sees Talina and comes over to hug her.

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

"How have you gotten along with everyone?"

[Meetup]

Talina happily returns both her smile and the hug.

[Beans]

[AP]
Great!
---
[Meetup]
"How are you?"

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

Velendri smiles, and goes to pet her.

"I'm glad. You want anything to drink, or some food?"

[Meetup]

"Pretty good. Better than usual, in fact... Sherry's pretty fun."

[Beans]

[AP]
She shakes her head, snuggling.
---
[Meetup]
Marina giggles, nodding.

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

Velendri smiles, somewhat sleepily, snuggling back.

"You know, you're a very good lap-sitter..."

[Meetup]

Talina smiles, going to lead Marina over to a couch.

"So, how have you been?"

[Beans]

[AP]
Aseti giggles and nods.
---
[Meetup]
"Good!" She grins.

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

Velendri grins, holding her close.

"How has that ghost-girl been, anyway? I heard something about her having issues..."

[Meetup]

Talina goes to rest her head on Marina's shoulder.

"That's nice to hear... Does it mean you've got some free time? We've missed you."

[Beans]

[AP]
She's better now!
---
[Meetup]
She smiles. "Sure, I've got some time."

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

"I'm glad. Do you think I could meet her at some point? She sounds nice..."

[Meetup]

Talina smiles as well.

"Maybe you can come over at some point, then?"

[Beans]

[AP]
She nods, smiling.
---
[Meetup]
She nods.
"Sure!"

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

"Thanks... What's her name again?"

[Meetup]

The sorceress grins, and goes to hug her tightly.

"Thanks, Marina! It'll be nice to see you more often."

[Beans]

[AP]
Paisley!
---
[Meetup]
She hugs back, giggling.

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

"...She wouldn't happen to be a Bellkeeper, would she? Or have a fondness for patterned clothing?"

[Meetup]

Talina smiles, and, after a moment, goes to kiss the half-elf, holding her close.

[Beans]

[AP]
She shakes her head vigorously.
---
[Meetup]
She kisses back, smiling.

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

"Alright. I just figured I should check, since a ghost-girl with that name would definitely be appropriate for the Bell of Lost Souls... How did she end up in the Forest?"

[Meetup]

Talina happily holds the kiss for as long as possible.

Though, eventually, it will have to end, and when it does, she goes to slip into Marina's lap.

[Beans]

[AP]
Aseti shrugs, not remembering.
---
[Meetup]
Marina holds her close, giggling.

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

Velendri smiles, going to rub Aseti's back.

[Meetup]

Talina burrows into her arms, smiling happily.

"Thanks for hosting these, by the way... If you want, though we can have the next one at our place, to take some of the strain off you."

[Beans]

[AP]
Aseti sighs happily.
---
[Meetup]
"That sounds fun."
She hugs her.

[The Bushranger]

[Moor]

Then that, for the most part, is where Talia focuses on. Though, given her powers over water and the fact that she uses them to make a few extra arms to help with the massage, it's not necessarily noticeable that she's focusing on any one part of Dani.

It is, needless to say, not long before Dani is simply a squirming mass of happy sounds under the assault of the massage.

[Talnissa's]

The undead robot is likely sitting at the kitchen table, watching Kara work, and smiling slightly.

"You look a little nervous.. Is something wrong?"

"Oh, it's nothing! Just...I'm going to need to look for another job," Kara says after a moment's hesitation.

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]
Aseti sighs happily.
---
[Meetup]
"That sounds fun."
She hugs her.

[AP]

Velendri is fairly good at this, though not as good as most, due to not having had a few hundred years to practice, or expert teachers, and works mostly on getting any knots out of Aseti's back.

[Meetup]

Talina happily hugs back, nodding.

"Especially since we live in an old motel... There's not exactly going to be any shortage of rooms, y'know?"

[Moor]



It is, needless to say, not long before Dani is simply a squirming mass of happy sounds under the assault of the massage.

[Talnissa's]



"Oh, it's nothing! Just...I'm going to need to look for another job," Kara says after a moment's hesitation.

[Moor]

Eventually, Talia's arms get tired, though the ones made of water continue, and she lays back next to Dani, smiling.

"You sound like you could use this more often..."

[Talnissa's]

Talnissa frowns, and goes to hug Kara from behind.

"I'm sorry to hear that... Why do you need a new job? What happened to make you lose the old one?"

[Beans]

[AP]
Aseti is happy anyway.
---
[Meetup]
Marina nods. "Good point."
---
[T's - Pass's Room]
Pass determines that eavesdropping would be rude, and instead goes to take a shower before she heads into sleep mode.

[The Bushranger]

[Moor]

"Don't tempt me...I'd want it to be all the time!"
Dani giggles cheerfully.

===

[Talnissa's]

Kara relaxes into her girlfriend's embrace, closing her eyes.
[size=1]"Miss Aeyrn is having to contract to just one location for her store. There's plenty of severance and good reccomendations," she quickly adds, "but I want to be self-sufficent..."

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]

Then the Flamedancer is as well.

"Is Zwei doing alright? Normally Karyana would have brought her for this..."

[Meetup]

Talina smiles, nestling against her.

"Thanks."


[T's - Pass's Room]

She'll find that the shower is fully functional, and doesn't ever seem to run out of hot water, as Talnissa is fairly good with enchantments involving such things.

[Moor]

Talia laughs as well, grinning.

"Well, I don't think I can do all the time, but I'd be okay with fairly often."

[Talnissa's]

Talnissa, since Kara probably needs it right now, raises her steam cloud to the surface, so that she's giving off a pleasant level of warmth.

I could introduce you to my parts suppliers, maybe... That way, you could build your own stuff, instead of having to rely on me?"

[Beans]

[AP]
Not so good.
---
[Meetup]
Marina smiles and snuggles.
---
[T - Pass's Room]
She showers, dries herself, and goes to bed.

Deadtime soon.

[The Bushranger]

[Moor]

"It's a deal!" Dani chirps, giggling and snuggling close to her friend.


[Talnissa's]

Kara sighs contentedly at the warmth, relaxing further, clearly grateful.
"It wouldn't...be a problem?" she asks, looking slightly nervous regardless.

[Lady Serpentine]

[AP]
Not so good.

[Meetup]
Marina smiles and snuggles.

[T - Pass's Room]
She showers, dries herself, and goes to bed.

Deadtime soon.

[AP]

Velendri frowns.

"What's up with her?"

[Meetup]

Talina smiles as well, looking around to see where Vo is.

[Moor]

"It's a deal!" Dani chirps, giggling and snuggling close to her friend.


[Talnissa's]

Kara sighs contentedly at the warmth, relaxing further, clearly grateful.
"It wouldn't...be a problem?" she asks, looking slightly nervous regardless.

[Moor]

Talia smiles, rather enjoying the snuggling.

"Good... Your wife won't mind, right?"

[Talnissa's]

Talnissa shakes her head, smiling down at Kara.

"Of course not, s'saeta. It would have been a good idea even if you didn't need a new job; this just sped up the timeframe a bit, by making me think of it sooner."

[Beans]

[AP]
She explains, frowning.

[Meetup]
Vo is being led off by some gals, blushing heavily.
