[Nexus] The Nest/Karyana's Forest III:

[C'nor]

[Forest 3]

Exactly what she described should pop into existence between them.

[The Bushranger]

[Forest 3]

Dani claps her hands excitedly and snatches up the dental flossswimsuit. "Need me to find somewhere private to change?"

[C'nor]

[Forest 3]

Karyana shrugs.

"If you want to."

[The Bushranger]

Forest 3

Dani sticks her tongue out at Kary.
...then changes into her swimsuit.
Right there. And then.

[C'nor]

[Forest 3]

Karyana doesn't stare, but she doesn't make any particular effort to avoid watching Dani change, either. Nor does she seem embarrassed about the fact that Dani's changing next to her.

As Dani's changing, Karyana's clothing starts to change into a dark green swimsuit, that's mildly more concealing than Dani's, but not by that much.

(Deadtime, but it's likely that it will be short)

[The Bushranger]

[Forest 3]

Becky gives Karyanna a grin - and an approving whistle - over her shoulder.
Before diving into the water!

[C'nor]

[Forest 3]

Karyana grins back, and follows Dani into the water.

[Motel]

Talina smiles at her reassuringly, and tries to snuggle up to both of them.

"Alright. And really, there's nothing to be nervous about."

[Tsiln]

Karyana will continue until Tsiln undeadtimes, and probably beyond.

[Moor]
She giggles.
----
[Motel]
Jen frowns a little.
... I... guess it wouldn't hurt to try it, just this once...
---
[Tsiln]
She chitters in relaxed pleasure.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Talia smiles at her, and Karyana glances over to see what Zwei is doing.

"So, what about you? What exactly did Karyana catch you doing?"

[Motel]

Talina looks somewhat confused by Jen's rapid shifts, but tries to pull her close.

[Tsiln]

Karyana smiles at her friend, and continues.

[Beans]

[Moor]
She's watching the goings-on.

I was sneaking around and I ran into a tree.
---
[Motel]
Nycca tries to pull the curtain, then.
---
[Tsiln]
The daemon blushes a little, enjoying it quite a bit as she is massaged.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"Wait, you were in the Forest? How did you get there?"

[Motel]

Talina will assist her, unless it seems like Jen isn't okay with it.

[Tsiln]

Karyana continues, happy that Tsiln likes what she's doing.

[Beans]

[Moor]
... Not too sure myself.
When in doubt, blame ghost magic thingies.
---
[Motel]
Afterwards, Jen frowns a little.
...
Guys?
---
[Tsiln]
She eventually sits up slowly, not realizing her shirt is no longer on her person.
Oh, thank you!
I really should do something nice for you to show my gratitude...

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"Ghost magic?"

Paisley seems to have a talent for baffling the poor water spirit.

[Motel]

Talina looks slightly nervous at this.

"Yes?"

[Tsiln]

"You're welcome, Tsiln. And if you want to, alright. But you don't have to."

[Beans]

[Moor]
Ghost magic is really really weird sometimes. Half of the time even I don't get it.
She shrugs.
Try not to think on it too hard.
---
[Motel]
She sighs.
It was really nice of you and Nycca to offer this... closeness, but...
I don't know if I'm comfortable doing that sort of thing.
Nycca frowns a little.
---
[Tsiln]
I think I know what I'll do...
She dresses and grins.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"You're a ghost, though?"

[Motel]

Talina smiles at her reassuringly.

"Like I said, it's your choice. And whatever you decide, it isn't permanently binding, unless you want it to be."

[Tsiln]

"What are you thinking?"

[Beans]

[Moor]
Mostly.
I have some wellwraith in me, even a little grössgespenst---don't ask what those are---so I'm sort of ghost plus extra.
---
[Motel]
Okay...
I think I'm going to sleep in a separate room.
Not that I don't like you guys, it's just... y'know.
---
[Tsiln]
You need an adorable pet!

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"Huh. Alright. Were you born part ghost, or was there something that made you that way?"

[Motel]

Talina nods.

"Do you want some help getting it set up?"

[Tsiln]

"That sounds good to me. Do you have something in mind?"

[Beans]

[Moor]
I think I was born ghost.
... I think.
---
[Motel]
I'll be okay, but thanks.
She dresses and slips out.
G'night.
---
[Tsiln]
A surrrpriiiiiiise.
She giggles madly.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"So what does that let you do,? Other than ghost magic."

[Motel]

"Good night, Jen."

With that, Talina tries to snuggle up to Nycca.

[Tsiln]

"This should be interesting... And thanks, Tsiln."

[Beans]

[Moor]
Well, I can go incorporeal.
The gr---let's just call it... Tall. Tall heritage lets me move really fast when people aren't watching.
And wellwraith heritage... I have a thing for white clothes and I'm at home around and in water.
Speaking of which, mind if I join you?
---
[Motel]
Nycca blinks.
Think we pushed her into it?
---
[Tsiln]
She smiles and will try to teleport out for a bit.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Talia smiles at her.

"Not at all."

[Motel]

"I'm not sure... But if she wasn't okay with it, why did she choose to try it out? I know I told her several times that it was her choice, and we wouldn't hold it against her either way."

[Tsiln]

Tsiln should be able to teleport out easily.

[Beans]

[Moor]
She slips into the water, sighing appreciatively.
I think I'd like to visit here often.
---
[Motel]
She shrugs and nods, yawning.
---
[Tsiln]
She comes back in with a large box in her hands.
Guess who found an adorable puppy---meep!
She trips and falls backward, the box tumbling off her legs to land at Karyana's feet.
And what's inside is...

A coyote girl.

... Tsiln has an interesting definition of "puppy".

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"I'm fine with it. You're good company. Karyana?"

The vampire shrugs, and nods.

[Motel]

Talina tries to pull Nycca close, and start stroking her wings.

[Tsiln]

She frowns, and says "Tsiln, that's not a puppy.", before offering a hand out of the box to the coyote girl.

"Hello. I'm Karyana. You?"

[Beans]

[Moor]
She giggles, relaxing.
---
[Motel]
She smiles and dozes off, snuggling.
---
[Tsiln]
She is helped.
I'm Aseti. She has a shoulder-bag with her.
What do you mean, "not a puppy"?
She's just like everything I've ever encountered called a puppy.

EDIT: Briefish dedtiem.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Talia smiles, and, after a bit, starts making sculptures out of the water.

[Motel]

Talina continues stroking her wings for a bit, but eventually also falls asleep.

[Tsiln]

Karyana smiles at the coyote girl.


"It's nice to meet you, Aseti.

And Tsiln, are you sure about that? I really doubt all, or even most, of the puppies you've seen have been part human."

[Beans]

[Moor]
She watches!
---
[Tsiln]
My limited experience within this world may be at fault.
When beings like her were being sold as companion-pets, they were sometimes referred to as puppies.
... That explains why you had that coupon.
The coyote girl smirks wryly.

Bolding her text so as to avoid confusion.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Talia runs through quite a few things, but eventually settles on a pair of serpents, twisting through each other.

[Tsiln]

"Okay. So... Aseti, how do you want to handle this?"

[Beans]

[Moor]
Oooooh...
---
[Tsiln]
Oh.
Yeah.
I sort of don't actually have anywhere to go...
Tsiln picks herself off the floor.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Talia smiles, and the snakes start to slither around each other, forming complex tangles. At times, they appear to actually pass through the other.

[Tsiln]


Karyana smiles at her.

"Well, you can stay here, if you want."

[Beans]

[Moor]
She stares in interest.
---
[Tsiln]
Aseti smiles.
Thanks!
