[NEXUS] GLoG 73

[Garden]

"We could go there sometime if you want." Becca suggests. "Maybe I could finally see a scyther." See and catch that is.

[UncleWolf]

Kitchen

After a while, Pathfinder returns, an ox skin over his shoulder. He looks tired, and he has a bit of blood on his muzzle still, but seems to be a bit more lively than before. Refreshed. He gives a nod to Pansy as he puts the skin, full of fresh meat, into the walk-in freezer. He took the best bits, and left the rest for the animals that would need food that night.

"I need to rest." He tells the halfling mother with a squeeze on her shoulder. "If you need anything, just shout for me." He tells her before heading into the Dining Room. He takes a couple of the extra blankets, and lays them out on the floor near where the halfling family had set themselves up, before laying down and curling up on it and quickly falling asleep, spear clutched in his paws.

"I'd like that a lot."
Jamie grins.
"What's a scyther?"

[Gullara]

[Garden]

"Scyther's a really cool bug pokemon. They have wings and they can move really fast. Their arms are long blades." Becca explains. She holds out her arms to show just how big the blades are.

[Shadowcaller]

[Outside the Wagons]

Harnel nods. He hadn't expected her to go without servants, seeing as she's nobility. Of course, the kind of servants... well, he's not expecting that. On top of that, he sort of hates undead as well. It'd be a matter of how the whole thing was presented to him, I think

"Outside the city then. Maybe something like a tower - I could teach one of our children to fly if they're born with wings, and it'd be visible over the canopy of the trees so they could always find their way home." That's Harnel, always thinking of protecting those close to him first and foremost.

[Outside the Wagons]

The mage obviously isn't too clear about the idea of her own children having wings, or giving birth to someone with wings for that matter. "Um... what makes you think they would have wings?" He might note a slight uncertainty in her eyes.

[Halae]

[Outside The Wagons]

Hanrle points to his own wings, "These. Libra technically may have added them, but they're part of my body, so I might pass them on or not - I have no way of telling." He puts a hand on Cessie's shoulder, "Are you... afraid of having children? I mean, my children?" it's fairly clear he means because of what he is, and all the things that come with that - horns, wings, tail, scales, all sorts of stuff.

[Main Lodge]

Brianna, having done all she could, enters the Main Lodge, and sits in a chair.

She doesn't go to get any food, though, instead sitting in a chair.

And holding the spear she carries around often, her eyes narrowed.

[Shadowcaller]

[Outside The Wagons]

"I... I think I'm a bit afraid of having children at all Harnel, it just seems so alien to me for some reason." The sorceress admits. "After having this spell active so long maybe it have effected me? I'm not sure." She refers to the spell she uses to prevent children and her time of the month.

[Halae]

[Outside the Wagons]

Harnel's brow furrows, "Cessie, how long has that spell been active?"

[Shadowcaller]

[Outside the Wagons]

"Since after my first time-of-the-month... when I was 14, I stopped using it once but regretted it." She doesn't exactly look comfortable with the subject.

[Halae]

[Outsdide the Wagons]

And suddenly Harnel looks worried. Worried that it might be affecting her somehow. "Cessie... how does the spell work? What does it do to you?"

[Zefir]

[Entrace]

Andy walks into GloG Area from here heading for nothing right now. He still has his Bunny ears and fur.

[Shadowcaller]

[Outsdide the Wagons]

Cessie looks somewhat embarrassed and clears her throat, "If... you got to know this isn't really my subject but I did some research about these... things. Without going into technicalities it causes the cycle to shut down with as little harmful effects as possible. Other mages have used it before, it's to prevent discomfort and such things. It isn't really harmful as far as anyone know. I wouldn't have used it then."

[Halae]

[Outside the Wagons]

Harnel sighs, and moves closer to Cessie, "Sia Memamosal, have you considered what not having you cycle might do to your mind? Shutting down a body function is going to have serious effects on the rest of your body, regardless of what it is. Even something like this." She might not be getting the hormones she needs for motherhood to her brain, I think

[Shadowcaller]

[Outside the Wagons]

"Harnel, you don't know what it feels like. It's very painful." Mostly due her not actually having it for 12 years. "As I said, it's made in such a way to allow the natural stages of the body without the... hurt." Ah, noble women in Hestopia rarely get more sex education then 'don't have sex until your married'.

"I really don't like to feel that again unless it's absolutely nessecary."

[Halae]

[Outside the Wagons]

"I'm just worried about how having the magic prevent it is affecting your mind." he says, "Besides, 'Bad luck builds up'." He sounds like he's quoting something. Probably a saying from his homeworld.

[Shadowcaller]

[Outside the Wagons]

"In that case it haven't been anything serious, I was really prepared to have children once. It just never happened. Aegnor disappeared before I made up my mind and we decided to wait with children right? It's nothing we need to care about now." She puts her hand on the one he have on her shoulder.

[Halae]

[Outside the Wagons]

Harnel looks at her worriedly for a moment longer before nodding, "I just worry sometimes." He sighs, "I guess we should change the subject then."

[Shadowcaller]

[Outside the Wagons]

"I would stop using the spell for you Harnel, I honestly would. But let's just wait until we decide to get children okay? We can't be sure how they look like anyway..." She smiles faintly at him.

[Halae]

[Outside the Wagons]

Harnel smiles and nods, though there's still that worry there. This is likely more distresed than Cessie's ever seen Harnel; inside, he's just barely keeping himself from panicking.

"We don't have to talk about this. I love you, that's all that matters now." Cessie should be able to recognize his distress though, even if he's fairly good at hiding it.

[Shadowcaller]

[Outside the Wagons]

Considering she have put a lot of points in empathy since she was 21, she will most likely be able to read his distress. "Harnel, I can tell your worried. Is it me? I'm not sure what to say..."

[Halae]

[Outside the Wagons]

Harnel looks at her, the smile fading completely, leaving just a worried look. He nods, but doesn't say anything else.

[Shadowcaller]

[Outside the Wagons]

This seems to distress the mage to no end. "Please... just tell me what it is, I don't want to worry you. Please Harnel, I can't stand you silent." She meets his eyes with an equally worried glance.

[Halae]

[Outside the Wagons]

"Rationally... rationally, I know it's stupid, but, sometimes I get worried that you'll leave me." it makes sense. He's spent his entire life regarded as an abomination, and now he's found someone to love, something he never thought he'd have. He's worried that it might turn out to be fleeting, or that he isn't good enough, anything. This has been an ongoing thing since Cessie told him her feelings.

[Shadowcaller]

[Outside the Wagons]

Cessie blinks and doesn't seem sure what to say for a moment. Then she takes a slow relaxing breath before she squeezes his hand. "Harnel... I would become a half-dragon for you if you wanted me to. There is no one else on this plane, or any other then I desire more then you. You have offered to change yourself for me so many times, but I like the one you are. What could possibly make me want someone else then you? I admit that I saw my desires towards you as... odd before, but that was until I realized it was a part of me. It always has. Denying you would like denying myself and I can't do that." She looks at him with eyes filled with concern.

[Halae]

[Outside]

Harnel swallows, his face a mix of emotions, "Thank you, so much, Cessie." and he'll lean in to try and give her a kiss. He seems hesitant.

[Morty]

[Main Cabin]

Brinika is sitting there in an armchair. She probably followed the halfling children around in deadtime. Aunt Reelshka said they were kept by very bad people and needed to eat and rest. Brinika hopes the bad people got what was coming to them.
In front of the Main Cabin, Sophie is putting up a plaque of her own under Dr. Burnett's advert, saying that she can also be talked to concerning redemption.

[Kitchen]

Reelshka is there, in case any of the rescued people need something.

[Shadowcaller]

[Outside]

The sorcress smiles, "For what? Being myself? If anything I should thank for making me realize who I am." She replies before she kisses him back passionately, attempting to guide both of his hands down to her rear.
"I love you silly." She laughs, her voice somehow completely without any of that heavy concern. She just sounds happy.

[Zefir]

[Kitchen]

Andy enters the kitchen taking an appel.

"Hey Reelshka . Did something happen? There are many people outside also some WATCHTOWER people."

[Halae]

[Outside]

And Harnel will return her kiss pationately, not resisting in the least where she guides his hands. His wings will wrap around her, holding her close.

He's not going to be the one to break this one off.
