Channelknight Fadran Posted July 28, 2021 Report Share Posted July 28, 2021 Quote Kay, in that case I'm assuming they did what Wendy said and went to bother Nicolae... Wendy half-smiled at Alienor sheepishly. "Sorry, madame. They're... y'know. Kids." Meanwhile, Katie had grabbed Arabella and pulled her behind a table, trying to come up with the perfect plan to scare Nicolae out of his socks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephrun’s Imperium Posted July 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2021 Quote The ball is indeed still going on. You can have Leina meet Nico if you like. Assume he's stuffing his face with pastries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ward's Guard Posted July 28, 2021 Report Share Posted July 28, 2021 17 hours ago, Zephrun's Imperium said: Riva could hardly believe her eyes. Caden. Sobbing. She strode carefully - quietly - into the room, placing a hand on his shoulder to test his reaction. “Caden?” she whispered, mostly making sure he didn't snap up and kill her. The great boulder of a man shook beneath her wet fingers and Riva could only wonder at the oddness of a mountain-like man appearing so weak before her. Her luck couldn't have been better. Would killing him really be so easy? The general shuddered upon contact, curling up tighter and clenching his eyes closed harder. "Forgive me, please forgive," he whispered over and over again while his body trembled, being cold to the touch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephrun’s Imperium Posted July 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2021 Riva gave a sneering smile. "You don't deserve forgiveness," she hissed. Satisfied with his pitiful response, she walked to her work station, looking about for the right potion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephrun’s Imperium Posted July 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2021 (edited) "Oh yeah? Is that why you killed her? Why you were going to kill me, too?" She ran her hands over labels, finally finding one of her favorite potions in her arsenal. It was in a large vial, since she used it so often and labeled, "Mamma's Recipe." Riva wondered briefly why she hadn't chosen a new name. Night Brew maybe? "Night" for "Nyx." Bah, it didn't matter. She poured some into a cup, looking for some paralyzing agents to add to it.

DramaQueen Posted July 29, 2021 Report Share Posted July 29, 2021 Leina went to the ball because it sounded better than latrine duty, but she'd spent her whole time by the food table. Not that anyone could blame her; royal food was good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephrun’s Imperium Posted July 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2021 "Awww, you love me?" Riva strode forward. Her face was bruised, her makeup was a mess, her hair was tangled and wet, and her clothing barely covered her bony, wrinkled body. "THEN WHY DID YOU HURT ME!!" She took his face in her hands and slapped him. "Damn you! Damn you to Mal! You don't love me." Riva's body shook with sobs. "You don't, you never did." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
