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

[Beans]

[Moor]
Uhhh... a while, I think.
---
[Tsiln]
She nods emphatically.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Karyana nods.

"As long as you want to."

Talia looks extremely confused by that statement. Hadn't Paisley just said Karyana owned her?

[Tsiln]

Karyana smiles and tries to rest her head on Tsiln's shoulder.

[Beans]

[Moor]
Yay!
She grins.
This place is nice!
I like bleak places. On a canoe trip in Canada I saw what was basically a granite field with some dips and rises; some had stagnant water, and some of the stagnant pools had given way to mini-bogs. I fell in love with that place immediately.
---
[Tsiln]
Tsiln lets her, enjoying the snugs.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"I'm confused... You said she owns you, but she just said that you staying is dependent on how long you want to stick around?"

I agree; bleak places can be quite nice. And that specific one sounds like a very cool place.

[Tsiln]

Karyana is perfectly content to stand there with Tsiln for a while, but eventually says "So, do you want to head back, keep moving, or just stand here some more?"

[Beans]

[Moor]
She owns me, but she's nice about it.
She smiles at Karyana and turns back to Talia.
---
[Tsiln]
Keep going!
She tries to go forth.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"Alright... What exactly do you mean by that?"

[Tsiln]

Karyana makes no move to stop her, though if possible she'll remain being carried around by the Execuloth.

After a bit, they should get to the more zoo-like portion of the building, where they can see the live ones in massive enclosures, apparently bigger inside than they should be. And the sun and sky really probably wouldn't appear that realistic in an indoor enclosure, though the angle doesn't ever match that of the last one they saw.

[Beans]

[Moor]
She doesn't make me do a bunch of stuff, really. I sort of get to do what I want, which is nice.
---
[Tsiln]
She is amazed and baffled and amazed again.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Talia looks confused again.

"Then why did she buy you?"

[Tsiln]

Karyana simply snuggles up against her, happy that Tsiln likes it here.

[Beans]

[Moor]
She didn't. Owning me is a stipulation of my former employers' rules---she sort of caught me accidentally, and it's either she took charge of me or... something else.
----
[Tsiln]
She sits and watches for as long as Karyana lets her.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"Oh. What was it that happened if she didn't?"

[Tsiln]

Karyana will allow her to watch for as long as she wants to.

[Beans]

[Moor]
She frowns.
... Don't wanna think 'bout it.
---
[Tsiln]
After a while, she sits up.
This has been nice.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Karyana moves to put several arms around Paisley.

"Alright. I'm sorry for bringing it up..."

[Tsiln]

She nods, still snuggling close.

"It has."

[Beans]

[Moor]
She smiles a bit.
'S okay.
---
[Tsiln]
You wanna do anything now?

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Talia returns the smile.

"If you say so..."

[Tsiln]

"Well, you seemed to like it when I rubbed your back last time, so do you want me to give you a massage?"

[Beans]

[Moor]
She grins.
---
[Tsiln]
She nods happily.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

They grin back, and Karyana tries to pull Paisley close.

[Tsiln]

Karyana tries to warp them both back to her room.

[Motel]

Talina tries to drape the magically-warmed blanket over all of them.

[Beans]

[Moor]
She giggles and is pulled close.
---
[Tsiln]
Warp!
---
[Motel]
Nycca snuggles close as Jen smiles.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"So, do you want to stay here and keep talking with Talia, or keep gong and meet some new people? Or something that's none of those?"

[Tsiln]

They're probably sitting on the edge of the bed.

Karyana tries to disengage herself from Tsiln, and stand up.

[Motel]

Talina smiles back at Jen, and then tries to kiss Nycca.

[Beans]

[Moor]
I'd like to stay and talk.
---
[Tsiln]
She lets her stand.
---
[Motel]
Nycca giggles and kisses back; Jen smiles a little nervously and shifts a bit.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"Alright."

Talia smiles at her, and says "So, what do you want to talk about?"

[Tsiln]

"You're going to need to lay down for this to work..."

[Motel]

Talina will hold the kiss for a bit, then break off, and say "What are you nervous about, Jen?

[Beans]

[Moor]
Anything!
---
[Motel]
I don't wanna be intruding or anything...
On the, uh, the moment, I mean.
---
[Tsiln]
She lays down, smiling.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Talia nods, and thinks for a moment.


"I heard you asking about Nixies earlier. Did Karyana's answer clear things up, or do you still have some questions?"

[Motel]

Talina laughs softly, and tries to pull Jen close.

"Trust me, you aren't intruding. If anything, one of us might ask if you want to join in."

[Tsiln]

Karyana's wings recede, and she grows an extra set of arms, before trying to start massaging Tsiln much she was doing to Zwei earlier, but with one set of arms focusing specifically on the Execuloth's wing-nubs.

[Beans]

[Moor]
All she said was you're waterfae and I dunno what that means so more info would be great!
---
[Motel]
Jen blushes mauve as Nycca giggles wickedly.
Um.
Well.
I, uh... I dunno.
---
[Tsiln]
Judging by her reaction, Tsiln adores the treatment she's getting.

"This place is wonderful!"

[C'nor]

[Moor]

"It means I'm a water spirit. Anyway, in general, Nix usually have a connection to a specific body of water. Also, we can control water and water plants, as well as shapeshift. Questions?"

[Motel]

"It's up to you. And you should know that, whether or not you decide to try joining in, or like it if you do, we won't hold it against you."

[Tsiln]

Karyana continues, eventually attempting to warp Tsiln's clothes over to a table, as they're getting in the way.

[Forest 3]

Karyana lays back next to Dani, and smiles at her.

"Thanks, Dani. I'm glad you like my work."

[Beans]

[Moor]
... That is so cool.
She grins.
---
[Motel]
I... think I'll pass, thanks.
She swallows.
---
[Tsiln]
She giggles and deadtimes.

[C'nor]

[Moor]

Talia grins back.

"Thanks!"

[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.

[Forest 3]

"You made this place?" Dani asks in surprise, looking over at Kary. Then giggling. "If I'd known it had water like this I'd have brought my swimsuit."

[C'nor]

[Forest 3]

"What's it look like? I can make a copy of it for you, if you want. And yes, I made this place."

Speaking of the water, it's pleasantly cool.

[The Bushranger]

[Forest 3]

Dani giggles, and proceeds to explain its appearance.
Bright pink.
VERY skimpy.
(Especially in the back.)
