~~Well thankfully the Christmas season was over, and soon the New Year will be here and gone, and things will settle down again. She wished the decorations taken down, but Corinne pouted the entire day since she mentioned it, so....she said they could remain up till the 1st and not a day longer.
She spent her nights in her room. Occasionally, she would visit an Inn, anywhere but the RDI. Seems immature men, have the run of the place...and last thing she needs or wish the company of, is an immature male, less he be under 5! Even Knite....the one she had written the music for...informed her he could "only be friends with her"...not that she tried to be anything else...it was he would had kissed her! No matter...someone always thought to insult her whenever she went into the Inn anymore. So she stays away from it. Not like there's a male there yet she's met who's worth his salt. Least none that are brave enough to stand up for themselves, and no be a bunch of sheep! For that's all they are. Sheep. Sad really.
She did need someone to protect her still, yet she didnt expect to find anyone around Rhydin who was brave, strong, reliable, smart, gallant and true. No such male animal existed in Rhydin. Oh, ::laughs:: their are those that believe they are! Nothing but idiots with swords.

To Hell with them all......Ivan included. Let him stay in Ireland. It is only an island, there are only so many he can feed on, afterall. Sitting high above Rhydin proper, standing on her balcony at night....there was so much she could witness, as the towne slept. Murders, break-ins, affairs....prostitutes and their Johns....Holier than though Maids acting like the common corner whore. Was amazing what her new found vision could see at night, as clear as what others saw during the day. Only occasionally would she interfere...when she saw say an innocent frightened, trying to make their way home at dusk...being followed by some degenerate. She would interfere on the innocents behalf...making a light dinner out of the scum that she stood before.

To each his or her own. She was no sheep....and refused to play one to anyone for any reason. How sad grown adults are...that lonely and in need, they would sell their very own set of values, truths, to "belong"...to a group who are separate....NOTHING....collectively....a bunch of wannabe bullies. Sad. Truly. Well...there was always hope for a better year....but at this rate... she sees nothing but its ultimate demise. Whole empires crumbled....these fools believe a mere city cant?! As she said before......FOOLS!~~(Everytown needs one...but damnit....why so many here?)

~~Last night Lash went into the Inn. Running into some old friends, she felt more welcome there than she had in many a month. Ignoring the others, she went about chatting and catching up with some true friends. Then he came in. Her peridot hues couldn't leave him, from the time he entered. By the way others spoke to him, he obviously was well respected in towne.

Approaching him, she asked to speak to him in private. He agreed...as well as to where. Needless to say...it was quite an interesting evening. They spent alot of time discussing serious subjects. Him vowing to help her, with all he could....and what he did not know he would research. Lash was beside herself with happiness. Though she did not outwardly show it, she was reserved. Others had offered to help her in the past....only to leave her more confused about WHAT she was.

He told her that there would be tests he would need to perform. She agreed. She would agree to anything this man said. At one point, he used some sort of spell and removed her own blood from her. Causing her bloodlust to intensify. She told him she would never feed off of him. "Never?" He tempted her. Reaching into his pocket he pulled out a pin. And pressed it into his flesh. She watched, her peridot hues darkening, as she watched the sweet red blood rush to the surface...pool, then run down his hand. The scent overwhelming her.

She moved away from him. He moved closer. Seeing exactly how far he could go with her. What he discovered, he never said. He ended the test, by replenshing her body with her own blood, satiating the lust that had built in her. But it was another lust which know enraptured her.
Fearing he would hurt her...he resisted her womanly charms. Just when she was certain that he was leaving for the evening....saying their goodbyes...and that he would "work" on her case....as she shut her door to her room. He came bursting through it, taking her up in his arms. This
was no test. Was nothing but a man and a woman. Perhaps their animalistic traits had come out in them....afterall, we are all animals of one form or other.

Flesh to flesh, mouth to mouth...the warmth of another's warm body pressed against hers....was mystical...reverant even...yet erotic to the point of blind desire. As he lay down atop of her....searching her eyes, and she his....unable to restrain himself any longer, he buried himself deep into her...as her limbs enveloped him tightly. A glorious pained pleasure, tore through her. Crying out into the quiet night....their hearts pounding as one.

This erotic dance of lovers seemed to last for hours, however did not....as they both were completely aroused by the others presence, since they first met. No magick, no gift of seduction was used...just the pure desires of one man and one woman. Each reaching their climax, one enticing it out of the other.....together they collapsed beside one another. Lying there the rest of the night, touching, caressing, kissing, tasting, exploring one another's bodies. Till the desire fanned the flames of passion yet again....as they pleasured one another over and over, till dawn. Lasherette fell into a serene slumber. He lay by her side, holding her....protectively. Feeling safe for the first time in ages, coupled with the physical exhaustion of making love all night....she did slumber....a sweet deep sleep.~~
