This picks up with Jeff and Anna Maria talking while Tanja is showing Tori the shower.
(796) Scum GM: Jeff leave to get Medea and comes back, holding Medea while leaning on the wall. She is happy with her bottle
(757) Anna Maria: *has gone into her own room and is flopped across the bed with a book, waiting for Tori and Tanja to come out*
(796) Scum GM: "Guess nobody wants to talk to us..." as Jeff returns to his room with Medea
(757) Anna Maria: *yells after him* "it's not that I didn't want to talk to you, I was just bored with standing"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff comes in and finds a place to sit "Suuuure..."
(757) Anna Maria: *smiles* "sensitive...."
(796) Scum GM: "Someone was awake and hungry"
(757) Anna Maria: *nods* "I see"
(796) Scum GM: "The book demanded reading?"
(757) Anna Maria: "I miss having children around. I'm glad you have Medea here"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff smiles ruefully "So am I..." and he offers Medea to Anna
(757) Anna Maria: *sets down her book and takes the baby with bottle, talking baby talk at her happily*
(796) Scum GM: Medea coos happily
(796) Scum GM: "You're a natural at this"
(757) Anna Maria: *laughs* "lots of practice"
(796) Scum GM: "Waiting to settle down for your own then?"
(757) Anna Maria: *shrugs* "I guess"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff frowns "Sorry..."
(757) Anna Maria: *shakes her head* "not your fault" *sighs* "it's still one of those subjects that cause a bit of pain. I lost the man I loved to a stupid war." *smiles halfway* "I do ok most of the time, but, well, you know I guess"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff nods "I'm sorry... I know that pain all too well..."
(757) Anna Maria: "yeah...I thought maybe you did"
(796) Scum GM: He nods "Not just Medea's mother..."
(882) Anna Maria: *frowns* "more than one. I'm sorry..." *looks up at him* "how do you get past it?"
(796) Scum GM: "I crawled in a bottle and hid until Aliza and Percephone found me and dragged me out. Then I lost Percephone too..."
(882) Anna Maria: "you didn't crawl back in the bottle though."
(796) Scum GM: "By then I'd either had Percephone or Medea"
(882) Anna Maria: *nods* "I'm glad that you had Medea then. When I lost Will, I started wandering. I spent some time in Hawaii, then left there, and well, now I"m here"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff nods "I lost Mary and our three children... and the village I was protecting. I hid in a bottle for ten years after"
(882) Anna Maria: *shakes her head* "damn..."
(796) Scum GM: "Aliza looks just like Mary... she used that to get to me, to make me sober up..." And he looks away
(882) Anna Maria: *leaves the baby on the middle of the bed so she can't fall, and goes over to Jeff, touching his shoulder lightly* "I'm sorry..."
(796) Scum GM: He starts then leans into it without a word
(882) Anna Maria: *sighs* "you know, I really don't want to like you"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff nods "I know...we've both lost so much already"
[19:31] Agilbxr: "it's not even so much that. I told you that Will was a cyber night, right?"
[19:33] dizzyintellect: He nods. "And you lost him to a war"
[19:34] Agilbxr: "a war between cyber nights. And he's not dead, at least as far as I know. He came back changed...like he, merged, with a different person"
[19:35] dizzyintellect: "A war within the knighthood... and he was merged with someone else..."
[19:36] dizzyintellect: As Jeff tries to absorb things
[19:37] Agilbxr: *nods and sits on the bed crosslegged* "He looked like Will, but he was very changed. Violent. He fed off magical power somehow" *shudders* "I ran..."
[19:38] dizzyintellect: "A psi-stalker..." Jeff sits crosslegged in front of you on the bed, still processing things
[19:39] Agilbxr: "I've never heard of a psi stalker."
[19:42] dizzyintellect: "They're common enough in North America, mostly in tribal bands in the wilderness. Some are in the gang Aliza and Ringo are in. Many work for the CS, protecting it from supernatural, magical, and psychic intruders" He looks around the room, pausing on the paintings, then looks back to you.
[19:43] Agilbxr: "oh. Well, you can imagine as someone who has a fair amount of magic, it was...intimidating"
[19:44] dizzyintellect: "I can imagine. They're quite... fierce"
[19:45] Agilbxr: "I noticed. And imagine that person with the face of the one you love." *shakes her head* "you know, i have never told anyone this before. Hell, I haven't told anyone where I came from before"
[19:46] dizzyintellect: "No, you haven't. That is one of the luxuries... and drawbacks of Ringo's place. No questions asked, but not so friendly. So, where are you from?"
[19:47] Agilbxr: *smiles* "Jamaica Mon..." *shakes her head* "I am Jamaican. I was born there, left in an orphanage from itty bitty baby age."
[19:48] dizzyintellect: "That makes sense... your mulatto skin, bit of an accent, and the piracy thing"
[19:51] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "the accent has gotten a lot less since I left Jamaica"
[19:51] dizzyintellect: "You still have a bit of one. I like it"
[19:52] Agilbxr: *smiles* "thanks. After leaving Jamaica, I ended up in North America on a ship with a bunch of, well, different people. Very strong magic users mostly, and quite an eclectic bunch. That's where I met Will. "
[19:53] dizzyintellect: "A ship. So, magical pirates with a Cyber-Knight?"
[19:55] Agilbxr: "they weren't pirates. They were...well I don't know how to describe them. They helped a lot of people, and fought against the bad people"
[19:56] dizzyintellect: "Ah. That suits you"
[19:56] Agilbxr: "it did actually."
[19:57] dizzyintellect: "Until Will become... not-Will..." He reaches out and places a comforting hand on Anna's calf
[19:59] Agilbxr: *nods* "yup. Then I went to Hawaii for quite a while, it's very peaceful there. I eventually got restless and started traveling again, and here I am."
[20:00] dizzyintellect: "You've been around, but I'm glad you ended up here"
[20:01] Agilbxr: "it's interesting here, that's for sure"
[20:02] dizzyintellect: "It was just a safe haven... then you came along..." Jeff turns away
[20:04] Agilbxr: *sighs* "it's still a safe haven, now it has friends"
[20:07] dizzyintellect: "That makes it more than a haven... and less. I could never love Aliza, but you I..." he stops, takes a breath "I'm afraid with you; we've both lost so much..."
[20:10] Agilbxr: "then we take it one day at a time. " *stares for a second* "I'm scared to tell the truth. But what kind of life will I have if I run every time I meet someone"
[20:11] dizzyintellect: "I tried that. It took a whore to drag me from the bottle. One day at a time sounds fair"
[20:12] Agilbxr: "you never know where the help comes from, do you?" *looks at Will and frowns* "I should probably tell you about my family...."
[20:13] dizzyintellect: Jeff? d-=
[20:13] dizzyintellect: "Your family? But you're an orphan"
[20:14] Agilbxr: *nods* "yes, I am. I don't know who my mother is, probably never will. She was a normal human woman. It's my father that is of the most concern"
[20:15] Agilbxr: *examines her fingernails, then sighs* "when I was on Keelie...the ship that I was on for awhile...I had a visiter. A real jokester by the name of Hermes. He, um, had winged feet. He delivered the news of who my father was, um...is"
[20:17] dizzyintellect: "Hermes? The messenger of the gods?"
[20:17] Agilbxr: *nods* "that would be the one. My father is, um.. well. shit. Who knew this would be hard. My father is Zeus" *does not look like she's joking"
[20:18] dizzyintellect: Jeff blinks "Zeus..."
[20:18] Agilbxr: *nods*
[20:19] dizzyintellect: "You're... that's..." as jeff sits there in shock
[20:19] Agilbxr: *sighs softly* "i was afraid of that..."
[20:20] dizzyintellect: He looks down "I'm sorry. It's just a shock. It probably shouldn't be; I was trained by an ancient Chinese dragon"
[20:21] Agilbxr: "Imagine how I felt. A chinese dragon? That's....cool actually"
[20:23] dizzyintellect: "But it wasn't enough to save my home" jeff frowns "As if I needed more reason to treat you right... I don't need thunderbolts thrown at me"
[20:25] Agilbxr: *laughs* "don't worry, he only contacts me when he wants something. And one person can't save the world. If I've learned anything, it's that I am one person, and I have to accept there is a lot I can't do"
[20:29] dizzyintellect: He smiles "Some things are hard to get over, and I'll be a bit nervous if I ever meet your family"
[20:30] Agilbxr: "don't worry, I will too. I've never actually met Zues, just Hermes. He put cat urine in my laundry basket"
[20:30] Agilbxr: "I wasn't particularly enamored with him, I must say"
[20:30] dizzyintellect: "That's... rude of him"
[20:31] Agilbxr: "I thought so. He thought I wasn't nice enough to him"
[20:32] dizzyintellect: "What did you do?"
[20:33] Agilbxr: "nothing really. I think I was supposed to offer him good wine and food, but I was so shocked at his presence and message that I wasn't very hospitable"
[20:34] dizzyintellect: "That's hardly an excuse for cat urine in the laundry"
[20:34] Agilbxr: "I didn't really think so, but hey, what do I know about the gods? Apparently they are touchy"
[20:35] dizzyintellect: "You'll warn me before I offend you that badly, won't you"
[20:36] Agilbxr: *grins* "probably"
[20:37] dizzyintellect: "Good. I hate to think what else the pirate daughter of Zeus could do" he grins
[20:40] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "I'll give you a demonstration one day"
[20:40] dizzyintellect: "Be gentle, please"
[20:41] Agilbxr: "I'm always gentle
[20:42] dizzyintellect: "It's possible to stab someone with that saber gently?' he grins teasingly
[20:43] Agilbxr: "not really, but I can do it quickly. Besides, the saber really isn't my best weapon" *pulls out a small knife from her bedstand drawer and hands it to him* "don't touch the blade..."
[20:44] dizzyintellect: "The blade's different... it looks Japanese maybe"
[20:45] Agilbxr: "I'm not sure of the origin, it's called a Tanto of Hellish poison though. It is not a pretty death if I have to use that one"
[20:46] dizzyintellect: "With a name like that, I imagine not. It feels... malevolent somehow, like it wants to hurt"
[20:47] Agilbxr: *nods* "it does. I've had to use it one time, while I was still pirating. I have since worked very hard on not using it again"
[20:48] dizzyintellect: "I can understand"
[20:49] dizzyintellect: He sheathes it and hands it back. "Not enough understand anything more than violence"
[20:50] Agilbxr: "I think that's the reason something like that is made" *puts the knife away* "that lives in my boot if I'm out of the house."
[20:51] dizzyintellect: "That makes sense. Fortunately, I'm never unarmed, though I prefer to use my Tai Chi, lion head sword, instead"
[20:52] Agilbxr: "me neither, really" *casts globe of daylight* "a benefit of my heritage, spells come easily to me"
[20:53] dizzyintellect: "And my training" he summons a Psi-Sword "But I know who to call if I need a flashlight"
[20:54] Agilbxr: *nods* "yup. Have I seen the lion head sword?"
[20:55] dizzyintellect: "It's the one I carry with me"
[20:55] Agilbxr: "ah. I hadn't paid that much attention to it. It's amazing how you get attached to one particular weapon, isn't it?"
[20:58] dizzyintellect: "Because of my training I fill that sword with my chi. It enables a plain steel sword to hurt demons and others immune to normal weapons"
[20:58] dizzyintellect: "But it takes time and focus with one sword to do that"
[20:58] Agilbxr: *nods* "that makes sense"
[20:58] Agilbxr: "what did your training involve"
[21:00] dizzyintellect: "Lots of hard work, practice more hours of the day than I'd care to remember"
[21:03] Agilbxr: *smiles* "training comes in all different kinds. Mine involved pretending to be a boy on a ship. Until I got found out that I wasn't a boy. Then it was learning how to defend myself against the other sailors who had been out to sea too long without women around" *grins evilly* "I have a nasty electric shock spell, so that every time they tried to touch me, I zapped the hell out of them. They thought it was my skin"
[21:03] dizzyintellect: "I'm glad you were able to defend yourself, but I think you're much better as a woman"
[21:04] dizzyintellect: "What is it like at sea? I've only seen the ocean a couple of times"
[21:05] Agilbxr: *looks astounded* "really? wow. I love the ocean. It's open, and free. It is always in motion, but never moving. It's salty and..." *blinks* "sorry...I miss it sometimes" *grins ruefully*
[21:05] dizzyintellect: "Then you'll have to show me sometime"
[21:06] Agilbxr: *nods* "anytime. I can travel ley lines, and take a friend if needed. It makes traveling easy. Or I can teleport"
[21:07] dizzyintellect: "Then it can be a day trip?"
[21:07] Agilbxr: "yup"
[21:08] dizzyintellect: "The I shall see the ocean at your pleasure"
[21:08] Agilbxr: "we can go now if you really want too. Are there other plans for today?"
[21:09] dizzyintellect: "Not that I know of."
[21:11] Agilbxr: "hold on" *concentrates hard, using sense ley lines*
[21:14] dizzyintellect: There's one outside of town that'll work
[21:14] Agilbxr: *smiles suddenly* "go grab what you need to travel, and some swimming trunks if you have 'em"
[21:15] dizzyintellect: "I don't think I have any...." he frowns "What about Medea?"
[21:15] Agilbxr: *thinks for a second* " I should be able to bring her along if I carry her"
[21:16] dizzyintellect: "I'll get her things too"
[21:16] Agilbxr: *nods and hops off the bed* "I have some stuff to grab"
[21:17] dizzyintellect: He hops off and heads to his room as well. Medea stirs, but quiets back down
[21:19] Agilbxr: *grabs her bag and fills it with some shorts and a tshirt, bathing suit, a couple of towels, weapons, snacks, a blanket, and a large umbrella"
[21:20] dizzyintellect: Jeff returns with a much larger bag with his and Medea's things "I believe we're set"
[21:28] Agilbxr: "great. We need to head outside of town a bit to where there is a leyline"
[21:28] dizzyintellect: "Sure"
[21:29] Agilbxr: *shoulders her bag and heads towards the leyline*
[21:29] dizzyintellect: Jeff shoulders his bag and Medea and follows
[21:30] Agilbxr: *after a bit of traveling, reaches the leyline and stops* "here we are"
[21:31] dizzyintellect: "Kinda blue..." he grins "So, what do Medea and I do in all this?"
[21:32] Agilbxr: "yeah..." *looks around* "hand me Medea, and you just hold my hand"
[21:32] dizzyintellect: He does so "You could have just asked for that..." as he looks as his hand in Anna Maria's
[21:32] Agilbxr: *takes the baby, tucks her under one arm, and holds on to Jeff with the other, concentrating hard before stepping straight into the leyline*
[21:33] dizzyintellect: And the trio arrives at its destination (which Anna Maria knows)
[21:34] Agilbxr: *steps out of the leyline and looks around happily* "welcome to Hawaii"
[21:36] dizzyintellect: Jeff looks around in amazement (where in Hawaii?)
[21:37] Agilbxr: On her favorite secluded beach
[21:37] dizzyintellect: "It's beautiful...."
[21:38] Agilbxr: *smiles and takes a deep breath* "yes it is. Lets set up a spot for Medea over by that palm, and I'd like to change into something more suitable for the beach"
[21:39] dizzyintellect: "Of course" and Jeff lays out a towel then sets Medea down with her bottle
[21:42] Agilbxr: *pulls the umbrella out and sets it over the baby for shade, then goes behind a tree to change into her bathing suit, which is a modest white bikini that is quite striking with her skin tone*
[21:43] dizzyintellect: He looks up "Wow... you are beautiful in that.."
[21:44] Agilbxr: *smiles* "thanks" *walks over to Medea, grasps the pendant around her neck and chants softly, casting mystic alarm on the baby*
[21:45] dizzyintellect: "You are welcome"
[21:45] Agilbxr: "There, now we'll know if anyone tries to touch her, or if she wanders off"
[21:46] dizzyintellect: "That's a good idea. I didn't have any swimming trunks, will these do?' he holds up a pair of sweat shorts
[21:47] Agilbxr: *nods* "they will"
[21:48] dizzyintellect: "Oh, good. Then let me change" and he wanders behind the tree and comes back with an armful of clothes. He's got scars from head to foot, and though they're old now, it's also apparent how deep they went.
[21:49] Agilbxr: *eyes the scars, but doesn't stare, and doesn't comment* "come meet the ocean" *holds out her hand*
[21:50] dizzyintellect: He takes it, though he's a little self concious of the scars.
[21:52] Agilbxr: *smiles at him, and heads into the water, looking more relaxed that Jeff's ever seen her*
[21:53] dizzyintellect: He does show he can swim by running in and diving after. He comes up looking much more relazed too. "I see why you love the sea"
[21:53] Agilbxr: *floats on the waves* "I love the sound, and the salt, and the way you can never take it for granted"
[21:54] dizzyintellect: "Never take it for granted?"
[21:55] Agilbxr: *shakes her head* "it's always changing. One minute, it's calm, the next it's trying to kill you. Just swimming here on the beach, you have to make sure you don't get in a rip current, and watch out for jelly fish. Those suckers hurt"
[21:56] dizzyintellect: "I see" he dives under and swims a bit, looking comfortable in the water
[21:56] Agilbxr: *watches him, smiling, then heads out looking for a big wave*
[21:57] dizzyintellect: being Hawaii, it's not hard to find
[21:57] Agilbxr: *picks up a good one and body surfs in*
[21:59] dizzyintellect: Jeff tries it as well, but it's obvious he's only swam in smaller bodies of water, as he wipes out on the way in and winds up in the shallws sputtering
[22:00] Agilbxr: *laughs at him, then shows him how to body surf*
[22:00] dizzyintellect: He enjoys the lesson and picks up relatively quickly
[22:02] Agilbxr: *after making sure both of them are thoruoghly water logged, goes back up the beach to check on Medea*
[22:03] dizzyintellect: Medea is fine, though you do catch her before she can eat a bit of lava rock. Jeff collapses on his back "Swiming's more effort than i remembered..."
[22:04] Agilbxr: *smiles at him* "superhuman endurance makes it much easier" *pulls some lunch out of her bag* "this will help"
[22:05] dizzyintellect: "Cheater" though he sits up at mention of lunch
[22:06] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "i came that way...not my fault"
[22:08] dizzyintellect: "It's still cheating" as he scoots over, cradling Medea, who returns to sleep "So, what's for lunch"
[22:09] Agilbxr: "Whatever I could find in the kitchen that stuffed into a bag easily. Crackers, cheese, bread, pickles, some lunch meat, some leftover steak, and a bag of cookies"
[22:10] dizzyintellect: "Nothing but the best. Thank you for bringing me here. I needed it, and by your face, you did too"
[22:11] Agilbxr: *smiles and nods while grabbing a cookie* "I love it here. It just got lonely here by myself"
[22:12] dizzyintellect: "Yeah. But it's beautiful here and I'm glad you shared it with me" while Jeff reaches around Medea to fix sandwiches and swipe Anna's cookie
[22:14] Agilbxr: *eludes Jeff's attempt to steal the cookie, laughing softly*
[22:15] dizzyintellect: He snatches one from the bag "
[22:16] Agilbxr: *grabs a sandwich and a drink and leans back against a tree* "I'm just glad it's a nice day here. Knowing my normal luck, I figured it'd be raining"
[22:17] dizzyintellect: "I think it would still be beautiful. Then again, where I'm from it rains a lot too"
[22:18] Agilbxr: "it is beautiful then, but the storms here can get almost scary"
[22:19] dizzyintellect: "Oh. That makes a difference..." as jeff leans back against a rock and relaxes
[22:21] dizzyintellect: "You know, it's much earlier in the day here. I've never traveled fast enough to see the difference before"
[22:22] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "that just means we have to leave early enough so we aren't traveling in Juarez after dark. No sense in borrowing trouble, especially there"
[22:24] dizzyintellect: He nods "A bit more swim after lunch then we go home then?"
[22:24] Agilbxr: "if we must" *grabs another cookie*
[22:26] dizzyintellect: "We should" Jeff sets Medea down and snatches the bag of cookies and Anna Maria's cooke. "Mine this time" and he eats the partially eaten cookie with a grin
[22:26] Agilbxr: "hey now! No stealing of the cookies" *launches herself after him*
[22:27] dizzyintellect: He doesn't run that hard, so he gets caught. The question is how
[22:28] Agilbxr: *football tackles him. She hits Hard!*
[22:29] dizzyintellect: "OOF!" as he goes down and the cookies go flying
[22:29] Agilbxr: *pins him on the ground by sitting on him and holding his arms down* "it is never a good idea to steal a woman's cookies!"
[22:31] dizzyintellect: "I surrender... though apart from the tackle, this isn't a bad place to be"
[22:32] Agilbxr: *gives him the harry eyeball* "hmmmm....."
[22:32] dizzyintellect: "You tackle hard?"
[22:34] Agilbxr: "I pulled the tackle. I didn't feel like having to fix broken bones" *grins* "I'm thinking this was planned. Hmm...." *climbs off and retrieves the bag of cookies, then sits next to him*
[22:36] dizzyintellect: "No, I just wanted your cookie. It looked tastier than the others, but I didn't mind the results either. Bruised ribs aside"
[22:36] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "you'll be ok..."
[22:37] dizzyintellect: "Will I?" He springs up and tickles Anna Maria, laughing the whole time
[22:38] Agilbxr: *laughs and squirms* "yes, you'll be just....hehehehe...fine"
[22:40] dizzyintellect: He finally lets up, on Anna Maria and inches from her face. He looks like he wants to kiss but isn't sure if he should or not
[22:41] Agilbxr: *blinks at him for a long second then pulls him towards her*
[22:41] dizzyintellect: Jeff goes with it as Anna settled the debate for him
[22:42] Agilbxr: *enjoys the moment, and comes up breathing hard*
[22:44] dizzyintellect: "You ok?" as he's breathing hard too
[22:44] Agilbxr: *nods* "yeah...a little too ok" *is still clutching the cookie bag*
[22:47] dizzyintellect: "You sure?" as he leans in for another kiss while moving the cookies to where they won't get crumbed
[22:47] Agilbxr: "mmm....."
[22:49] dizzyintellect: Jeff breaks it off (he has to breathe too) and rolls them over with a grin "You have all the power"
[22:51] Agilbxr: *smiles and says softly* "it's a heady feeling having all the power" *runs one finger very lightly down his jawline, then leans down for a kiss*
[22:51] dizzyintellect: "You should try this en..." and then he gets kissed
[22:52] Agilbxr: *breaks off the kiss* "try what?"
[22:53] dizzyintellect: "Being under your power, of course"
[22:53] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "you seem to be exerting some of your own. "
[22:55] dizzyintellect: "But I leave the final say to you." He wraps his arms around her waist and pulls her close
[22:59] Agilbxr: *sighs softly, enjoying being held* "i've...never been with anyone other then Will. I want you...." *picks up his hand* "can you believe I'm nervous of all the damn things" *shakes her head in wonder*
[23:01] dizzyintellect: He nods "I can understand. You have already touched me in places I thought were dead. I'm afraid too, but better with you and fear than dead and without you"
[23:03] Agilbxr: *smiles and brings his hand up for a kiss* "very profound"
[23:04] dizzyintellect: "I have you to thank for it"
[23:05] Agilbxr: *chuckles softly* "no more talk...." *and kisses him deeply*
[23:05] dizzyintellect: He kisses back and does as Anna requests
[23:06] Agilbxr: *enjoys getting sand in uncomfortable places*
[23:07] dizzyintellect: So does Jeff, he's on bottom
[23:07] Agilbxr: *ends up next to Jeff, head on his shoulder, tracing his scars with one finger and smiling*
[23:08] dizzyintellect: He looks quite happy, and tired
[23:09] Agilbxr: *looks up at the sun* "we need to get back soon"
[23:10] dizzyintellect: He nods and slowly sits up, then pauses and looks down at her. "Then should we look for a room big enough for three?"
[23:11] Agilbxr: *smiles and shakes her head* "Medea just gets her own room. I can protect and ward her magically if we aren't in the same room"
[23:12] dizzyintellect: He laughs "That works too" he offers her a hand up, then pauses to admire before heading back to their initial picnic spot
[23:12] Agilbxr: *walks back, toting her suit and cookies, then gets ready to head back*
[23:14] dizzyintellect: Medea is crawling around, exploring, but hasn't gone far. Jeff scoops her up then stops "Oh.. pack up.." sets Medea down and helps gather everything together
[23:15] Agilbxr: *shakes he head* "play with her...I've got this" *packs everything, then casts cleanse on herself and Jeff before getting dressed*
[23:15] dizzyintellect: He nods and does so. She enjoys it
[23:16] Agilbxr: *stuffs everything back in her little bag, humming a soft tune while she packs, then stands up and looks around wistfully* "I guess I'm ready if you are"
[23:17] dizzyintellect: "I think we are" while he hurriedly dresses "How did you fit so much in that bag?"
[23:18] Agilbxr: "dimensional pocket. I could fit a house in here if I really wanted too"
[23:18] dizzyintellect: "Oh..."
[23:19] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "it's handy" *takes Jeff's hand and heads towards the ley line*
[23:20] dizzyintellect: He walks along contentedly. The return trip is easy enough, though it is after dark in Mexico
[23:20] Agilbxr: *keeps a wary eye out on the way from the leyline to Ringo's*
[23:21] dizzyintellect: It's a peaceful evening, except for the usual Juarez ruckus
[23:22] Agilbxr: *once home, heads upstairs for a shower before bed*
[23:23] dizzyintellect: Anna Maria finds a surprise in her bed when she gets out
[23:24] Agilbxr: *Smiles and joins Jeff* "Medea asleep?"
[23:24] dizzyintellect: "Happily. And tomorrow you canfix her whole room up" he smiles "But tonight, let me hold someone I love"
[23:25] Agilbxr: *sighs and enjoys a nice night before falling quite soundly asleep*
(796) Scum GM: Jeff leave to get Medea and comes back, holding Medea while leaning on the wall. She is happy with her bottle
(757) Anna Maria: *has gone into her own room and is flopped across the bed with a book, waiting for Tori and Tanja to come out*
(796) Scum GM: "Guess nobody wants to talk to us..." as Jeff returns to his room with Medea
(757) Anna Maria: *yells after him* "it's not that I didn't want to talk to you, I was just bored with standing"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff comes in and finds a place to sit "Suuuure..."
(757) Anna Maria: *smiles* "sensitive...."
(796) Scum GM: "Someone was awake and hungry"
(757) Anna Maria: *nods* "I see"
(796) Scum GM: "The book demanded reading?"
(757) Anna Maria: "I miss having children around. I'm glad you have Medea here"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff smiles ruefully "So am I..." and he offers Medea to Anna
(757) Anna Maria: *sets down her book and takes the baby with bottle, talking baby talk at her happily*
(796) Scum GM: Medea coos happily
(796) Scum GM: "You're a natural at this"
(757) Anna Maria: *laughs* "lots of practice"
(796) Scum GM: "Waiting to settle down for your own then?"
(757) Anna Maria: *shrugs* "I guess"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff frowns "Sorry..."
(757) Anna Maria: *shakes her head* "not your fault" *sighs* "it's still one of those subjects that cause a bit of pain. I lost the man I loved to a stupid war." *smiles halfway* "I do ok most of the time, but, well, you know I guess"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff nods "I'm sorry... I know that pain all too well..."
(757) Anna Maria: "yeah...I thought maybe you did"
(796) Scum GM: He nods "Not just Medea's mother..."
(882) Anna Maria: *frowns* "more than one. I'm sorry..." *looks up at him* "how do you get past it?"
(796) Scum GM: "I crawled in a bottle and hid until Aliza and Percephone found me and dragged me out. Then I lost Percephone too..."
(882) Anna Maria: "you didn't crawl back in the bottle though."
(796) Scum GM: "By then I'd either had Percephone or Medea"
(882) Anna Maria: *nods* "I'm glad that you had Medea then. When I lost Will, I started wandering. I spent some time in Hawaii, then left there, and well, now I"m here"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff nods "I lost Mary and our three children... and the village I was protecting. I hid in a bottle for ten years after"
(882) Anna Maria: *shakes her head* "damn..."
(796) Scum GM: "Aliza looks just like Mary... she used that to get to me, to make me sober up..." And he looks away
(882) Anna Maria: *leaves the baby on the middle of the bed so she can't fall, and goes over to Jeff, touching his shoulder lightly* "I'm sorry..."
(796) Scum GM: He starts then leans into it without a word
(882) Anna Maria: *sighs* "you know, I really don't want to like you"
(796) Scum GM: Jeff nods "I know...we've both lost so much already"
[19:31] Agilbxr: "it's not even so much that. I told you that Will was a cyber night, right?"
[19:33] dizzyintellect: He nods. "And you lost him to a war"
[19:34] Agilbxr: "a war between cyber nights. And he's not dead, at least as far as I know. He came back changed...like he, merged, with a different person"
[19:35] dizzyintellect: "A war within the knighthood... and he was merged with someone else..."
[19:36] dizzyintellect: As Jeff tries to absorb things
[19:37] Agilbxr: *nods and sits on the bed crosslegged* "He looked like Will, but he was very changed. Violent. He fed off magical power somehow" *shudders* "I ran..."
[19:38] dizzyintellect: "A psi-stalker..." Jeff sits crosslegged in front of you on the bed, still processing things
[19:39] Agilbxr: "I've never heard of a psi stalker."
[19:42] dizzyintellect: "They're common enough in North America, mostly in tribal bands in the wilderness. Some are in the gang Aliza and Ringo are in. Many work for the CS, protecting it from supernatural, magical, and psychic intruders" He looks around the room, pausing on the paintings, then looks back to you.
[19:43] Agilbxr: "oh. Well, you can imagine as someone who has a fair amount of magic, it was...intimidating"
[19:44] dizzyintellect: "I can imagine. They're quite... fierce"
[19:45] Agilbxr: "I noticed. And imagine that person with the face of the one you love." *shakes her head* "you know, i have never told anyone this before. Hell, I haven't told anyone where I came from before"
[19:46] dizzyintellect: "No, you haven't. That is one of the luxuries... and drawbacks of Ringo's place. No questions asked, but not so friendly. So, where are you from?"
[19:47] Agilbxr: *smiles* "Jamaica Mon..." *shakes her head* "I am Jamaican. I was born there, left in an orphanage from itty bitty baby age."
[19:48] dizzyintellect: "That makes sense... your mulatto skin, bit of an accent, and the piracy thing"
[19:51] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "the accent has gotten a lot less since I left Jamaica"
[19:51] dizzyintellect: "You still have a bit of one. I like it"
[19:52] Agilbxr: *smiles* "thanks. After leaving Jamaica, I ended up in North America on a ship with a bunch of, well, different people. Very strong magic users mostly, and quite an eclectic bunch. That's where I met Will. "
[19:53] dizzyintellect: "A ship. So, magical pirates with a Cyber-Knight?"
[19:55] Agilbxr: "they weren't pirates. They were...well I don't know how to describe them. They helped a lot of people, and fought against the bad people"
[19:56] dizzyintellect: "Ah. That suits you"
[19:56] Agilbxr: "it did actually."
[19:57] dizzyintellect: "Until Will become... not-Will..." He reaches out and places a comforting hand on Anna's calf
[19:59] Agilbxr: *nods* "yup. Then I went to Hawaii for quite a while, it's very peaceful there. I eventually got restless and started traveling again, and here I am."
[20:00] dizzyintellect: "You've been around, but I'm glad you ended up here"
[20:01] Agilbxr: "it's interesting here, that's for sure"
[20:02] dizzyintellect: "It was just a safe haven... then you came along..." Jeff turns away
[20:04] Agilbxr: *sighs* "it's still a safe haven, now it has friends"
[20:07] dizzyintellect: "That makes it more than a haven... and less. I could never love Aliza, but you I..." he stops, takes a breath "I'm afraid with you; we've both lost so much..."
[20:10] Agilbxr: "then we take it one day at a time. " *stares for a second* "I'm scared to tell the truth. But what kind of life will I have if I run every time I meet someone"
[20:11] dizzyintellect: "I tried that. It took a whore to drag me from the bottle. One day at a time sounds fair"
[20:12] Agilbxr: "you never know where the help comes from, do you?" *looks at Will and frowns* "I should probably tell you about my family...."
[20:13] dizzyintellect: Jeff? d-=
[20:13] dizzyintellect: "Your family? But you're an orphan"
[20:14] Agilbxr: *nods* "yes, I am. I don't know who my mother is, probably never will. She was a normal human woman. It's my father that is of the most concern"
[20:15] Agilbxr: *examines her fingernails, then sighs* "when I was on Keelie...the ship that I was on for awhile...I had a visiter. A real jokester by the name of Hermes. He, um, had winged feet. He delivered the news of who my father was, um...is"
[20:17] dizzyintellect: "Hermes? The messenger of the gods?"
[20:17] Agilbxr: *nods* "that would be the one. My father is, um.. well. shit. Who knew this would be hard. My father is Zeus" *does not look like she's joking"
[20:18] dizzyintellect: Jeff blinks "Zeus..."
[20:18] Agilbxr: *nods*
[20:19] dizzyintellect: "You're... that's..." as jeff sits there in shock
[20:19] Agilbxr: *sighs softly* "i was afraid of that..."
[20:20] dizzyintellect: He looks down "I'm sorry. It's just a shock. It probably shouldn't be; I was trained by an ancient Chinese dragon"
[20:21] Agilbxr: "Imagine how I felt. A chinese dragon? That's....cool actually"
[20:23] dizzyintellect: "But it wasn't enough to save my home" jeff frowns "As if I needed more reason to treat you right... I don't need thunderbolts thrown at me"
[20:25] Agilbxr: *laughs* "don't worry, he only contacts me when he wants something. And one person can't save the world. If I've learned anything, it's that I am one person, and I have to accept there is a lot I can't do"
[20:29] dizzyintellect: He smiles "Some things are hard to get over, and I'll be a bit nervous if I ever meet your family"
[20:30] Agilbxr: "don't worry, I will too. I've never actually met Zues, just Hermes. He put cat urine in my laundry basket"
[20:30] Agilbxr: "I wasn't particularly enamored with him, I must say"
[20:30] dizzyintellect: "That's... rude of him"
[20:31] Agilbxr: "I thought so. He thought I wasn't nice enough to him"
[20:32] dizzyintellect: "What did you do?"
[20:33] Agilbxr: "nothing really. I think I was supposed to offer him good wine and food, but I was so shocked at his presence and message that I wasn't very hospitable"
[20:34] dizzyintellect: "That's hardly an excuse for cat urine in the laundry"
[20:34] Agilbxr: "I didn't really think so, but hey, what do I know about the gods? Apparently they are touchy"
[20:35] dizzyintellect: "You'll warn me before I offend you that badly, won't you"
[20:36] Agilbxr: *grins* "probably"
[20:37] dizzyintellect: "Good. I hate to think what else the pirate daughter of Zeus could do" he grins
[20:40] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "I'll give you a demonstration one day"
[20:40] dizzyintellect: "Be gentle, please"
[20:41] Agilbxr: "I'm always gentle
[20:42] dizzyintellect: "It's possible to stab someone with that saber gently?' he grins teasingly
[20:43] Agilbxr: "not really, but I can do it quickly. Besides, the saber really isn't my best weapon" *pulls out a small knife from her bedstand drawer and hands it to him* "don't touch the blade..."
[20:44] dizzyintellect: "The blade's different... it looks Japanese maybe"
[20:45] Agilbxr: "I'm not sure of the origin, it's called a Tanto of Hellish poison though. It is not a pretty death if I have to use that one"
[20:46] dizzyintellect: "With a name like that, I imagine not. It feels... malevolent somehow, like it wants to hurt"
[20:47] Agilbxr: *nods* "it does. I've had to use it one time, while I was still pirating. I have since worked very hard on not using it again"
[20:48] dizzyintellect: "I can understand"
[20:49] dizzyintellect: He sheathes it and hands it back. "Not enough understand anything more than violence"
[20:50] Agilbxr: "I think that's the reason something like that is made" *puts the knife away* "that lives in my boot if I'm out of the house."
[20:51] dizzyintellect: "That makes sense. Fortunately, I'm never unarmed, though I prefer to use my Tai Chi, lion head sword, instead"
[20:52] Agilbxr: "me neither, really" *casts globe of daylight* "a benefit of my heritage, spells come easily to me"
[20:53] dizzyintellect: "And my training" he summons a Psi-Sword "But I know who to call if I need a flashlight"
[20:54] Agilbxr: *nods* "yup. Have I seen the lion head sword?"
[20:55] dizzyintellect: "It's the one I carry with me"
[20:55] Agilbxr: "ah. I hadn't paid that much attention to it. It's amazing how you get attached to one particular weapon, isn't it?"
[20:58] dizzyintellect: "Because of my training I fill that sword with my chi. It enables a plain steel sword to hurt demons and others immune to normal weapons"
[20:58] dizzyintellect: "But it takes time and focus with one sword to do that"
[20:58] Agilbxr: *nods* "that makes sense"
[20:58] Agilbxr: "what did your training involve"
[21:00] dizzyintellect: "Lots of hard work, practice more hours of the day than I'd care to remember"
[21:03] Agilbxr: *smiles* "training comes in all different kinds. Mine involved pretending to be a boy on a ship. Until I got found out that I wasn't a boy. Then it was learning how to defend myself against the other sailors who had been out to sea too long without women around" *grins evilly* "I have a nasty electric shock spell, so that every time they tried to touch me, I zapped the hell out of them. They thought it was my skin"
[21:03] dizzyintellect: "I'm glad you were able to defend yourself, but I think you're much better as a woman"
[21:04] dizzyintellect: "What is it like at sea? I've only seen the ocean a couple of times"
[21:05] Agilbxr: *looks astounded* "really? wow. I love the ocean. It's open, and free. It is always in motion, but never moving. It's salty and..." *blinks* "sorry...I miss it sometimes" *grins ruefully*
[21:05] dizzyintellect: "Then you'll have to show me sometime"
[21:06] Agilbxr: *nods* "anytime. I can travel ley lines, and take a friend if needed. It makes traveling easy. Or I can teleport"
[21:07] dizzyintellect: "Then it can be a day trip?"
[21:07] Agilbxr: "yup"
[21:08] dizzyintellect: "The I shall see the ocean at your pleasure"
[21:08] Agilbxr: "we can go now if you really want too. Are there other plans for today?"
[21:09] dizzyintellect: "Not that I know of."
[21:11] Agilbxr: "hold on" *concentrates hard, using sense ley lines*
[21:14] dizzyintellect: There's one outside of town that'll work
[21:14] Agilbxr: *smiles suddenly* "go grab what you need to travel, and some swimming trunks if you have 'em"
[21:15] dizzyintellect: "I don't think I have any...." he frowns "What about Medea?"
[21:15] Agilbxr: *thinks for a second* " I should be able to bring her along if I carry her"
[21:16] dizzyintellect: "I'll get her things too"
[21:16] Agilbxr: *nods and hops off the bed* "I have some stuff to grab"
[21:17] dizzyintellect: He hops off and heads to his room as well. Medea stirs, but quiets back down
[21:19] Agilbxr: *grabs her bag and fills it with some shorts and a tshirt, bathing suit, a couple of towels, weapons, snacks, a blanket, and a large umbrella"
[21:20] dizzyintellect: Jeff returns with a much larger bag with his and Medea's things "I believe we're set"
[21:28] Agilbxr: "great. We need to head outside of town a bit to where there is a leyline"
[21:28] dizzyintellect: "Sure"
[21:29] Agilbxr: *shoulders her bag and heads towards the leyline*
[21:29] dizzyintellect: Jeff shoulders his bag and Medea and follows
[21:30] Agilbxr: *after a bit of traveling, reaches the leyline and stops* "here we are"
[21:31] dizzyintellect: "Kinda blue..." he grins "So, what do Medea and I do in all this?"
[21:32] Agilbxr: "yeah..." *looks around* "hand me Medea, and you just hold my hand"
[21:32] dizzyintellect: He does so "You could have just asked for that..." as he looks as his hand in Anna Maria's
[21:32] Agilbxr: *takes the baby, tucks her under one arm, and holds on to Jeff with the other, concentrating hard before stepping straight into the leyline*
[21:33] dizzyintellect: And the trio arrives at its destination (which Anna Maria knows)
[21:34] Agilbxr: *steps out of the leyline and looks around happily* "welcome to Hawaii"
[21:36] dizzyintellect: Jeff looks around in amazement (where in Hawaii?)
[21:37] Agilbxr: On her favorite secluded beach
[21:37] dizzyintellect: "It's beautiful...."
[21:38] Agilbxr: *smiles and takes a deep breath* "yes it is. Lets set up a spot for Medea over by that palm, and I'd like to change into something more suitable for the beach"
[21:39] dizzyintellect: "Of course" and Jeff lays out a towel then sets Medea down with her bottle
[21:42] Agilbxr: *pulls the umbrella out and sets it over the baby for shade, then goes behind a tree to change into her bathing suit, which is a modest white bikini that is quite striking with her skin tone*
[21:43] dizzyintellect: He looks up "Wow... you are beautiful in that.."
[21:44] Agilbxr: *smiles* "thanks" *walks over to Medea, grasps the pendant around her neck and chants softly, casting mystic alarm on the baby*
[21:45] dizzyintellect: "You are welcome"
[21:45] Agilbxr: "There, now we'll know if anyone tries to touch her, or if she wanders off"
[21:46] dizzyintellect: "That's a good idea. I didn't have any swimming trunks, will these do?' he holds up a pair of sweat shorts
[21:47] Agilbxr: *nods* "they will"
[21:48] dizzyintellect: "Oh, good. Then let me change" and he wanders behind the tree and comes back with an armful of clothes. He's got scars from head to foot, and though they're old now, it's also apparent how deep they went.
[21:49] Agilbxr: *eyes the scars, but doesn't stare, and doesn't comment* "come meet the ocean" *holds out her hand*
[21:50] dizzyintellect: He takes it, though he's a little self concious of the scars.
[21:52] Agilbxr: *smiles at him, and heads into the water, looking more relaxed that Jeff's ever seen her*
[21:53] dizzyintellect: He does show he can swim by running in and diving after. He comes up looking much more relazed too. "I see why you love the sea"
[21:53] Agilbxr: *floats on the waves* "I love the sound, and the salt, and the way you can never take it for granted"
[21:54] dizzyintellect: "Never take it for granted?"
[21:55] Agilbxr: *shakes her head* "it's always changing. One minute, it's calm, the next it's trying to kill you. Just swimming here on the beach, you have to make sure you don't get in a rip current, and watch out for jelly fish. Those suckers hurt"
[21:56] dizzyintellect: "I see" he dives under and swims a bit, looking comfortable in the water
[21:56] Agilbxr: *watches him, smiling, then heads out looking for a big wave*
[21:57] dizzyintellect: being Hawaii, it's not hard to find
[21:57] Agilbxr: *picks up a good one and body surfs in*
[21:59] dizzyintellect: Jeff tries it as well, but it's obvious he's only swam in smaller bodies of water, as he wipes out on the way in and winds up in the shallws sputtering
[22:00] Agilbxr: *laughs at him, then shows him how to body surf*
[22:00] dizzyintellect: He enjoys the lesson and picks up relatively quickly
[22:02] Agilbxr: *after making sure both of them are thoruoghly water logged, goes back up the beach to check on Medea*
[22:03] dizzyintellect: Medea is fine, though you do catch her before she can eat a bit of lava rock. Jeff collapses on his back "Swiming's more effort than i remembered..."
[22:04] Agilbxr: *smiles at him* "superhuman endurance makes it much easier" *pulls some lunch out of her bag* "this will help"
[22:05] dizzyintellect: "Cheater" though he sits up at mention of lunch
[22:06] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "i came that way...not my fault"
[22:08] dizzyintellect: "It's still cheating" as he scoots over, cradling Medea, who returns to sleep "So, what's for lunch"
[22:09] Agilbxr: "Whatever I could find in the kitchen that stuffed into a bag easily. Crackers, cheese, bread, pickles, some lunch meat, some leftover steak, and a bag of cookies"
[22:10] dizzyintellect: "Nothing but the best. Thank you for bringing me here. I needed it, and by your face, you did too"
[22:11] Agilbxr: *smiles and nods while grabbing a cookie* "I love it here. It just got lonely here by myself"
[22:12] dizzyintellect: "Yeah. But it's beautiful here and I'm glad you shared it with me" while Jeff reaches around Medea to fix sandwiches and swipe Anna's cookie
[22:14] Agilbxr: *eludes Jeff's attempt to steal the cookie, laughing softly*
[22:15] dizzyintellect: He snatches one from the bag "
[22:16] Agilbxr: *grabs a sandwich and a drink and leans back against a tree* "I'm just glad it's a nice day here. Knowing my normal luck, I figured it'd be raining"
[22:17] dizzyintellect: "I think it would still be beautiful. Then again, where I'm from it rains a lot too"
[22:18] Agilbxr: "it is beautiful then, but the storms here can get almost scary"
[22:19] dizzyintellect: "Oh. That makes a difference..." as jeff leans back against a rock and relaxes
[22:21] dizzyintellect: "You know, it's much earlier in the day here. I've never traveled fast enough to see the difference before"
[22:22] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "that just means we have to leave early enough so we aren't traveling in Juarez after dark. No sense in borrowing trouble, especially there"
[22:24] dizzyintellect: He nods "A bit more swim after lunch then we go home then?"
[22:24] Agilbxr: "if we must" *grabs another cookie*
[22:26] dizzyintellect: "We should" Jeff sets Medea down and snatches the bag of cookies and Anna Maria's cooke. "Mine this time" and he eats the partially eaten cookie with a grin
[22:26] Agilbxr: "hey now! No stealing of the cookies" *launches herself after him*
[22:27] dizzyintellect: He doesn't run that hard, so he gets caught. The question is how
[22:28] Agilbxr: *football tackles him. She hits Hard!*
[22:29] dizzyintellect: "OOF!" as he goes down and the cookies go flying
[22:29] Agilbxr: *pins him on the ground by sitting on him and holding his arms down* "it is never a good idea to steal a woman's cookies!"
[22:31] dizzyintellect: "I surrender... though apart from the tackle, this isn't a bad place to be"
[22:32] Agilbxr: *gives him the harry eyeball* "hmmmm....."
[22:32] dizzyintellect: "You tackle hard?"
[22:34] Agilbxr: "I pulled the tackle. I didn't feel like having to fix broken bones" *grins* "I'm thinking this was planned. Hmm...." *climbs off and retrieves the bag of cookies, then sits next to him*
[22:36] dizzyintellect: "No, I just wanted your cookie. It looked tastier than the others, but I didn't mind the results either. Bruised ribs aside"
[22:36] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "you'll be ok..."
[22:37] dizzyintellect: "Will I?" He springs up and tickles Anna Maria, laughing the whole time
[22:38] Agilbxr: *laughs and squirms* "yes, you'll be just....hehehehe...fine"
[22:40] dizzyintellect: He finally lets up, on Anna Maria and inches from her face. He looks like he wants to kiss but isn't sure if he should or not
[22:41] Agilbxr: *blinks at him for a long second then pulls him towards her*
[22:41] dizzyintellect: Jeff goes with it as Anna settled the debate for him
[22:42] Agilbxr: *enjoys the moment, and comes up breathing hard*
[22:44] dizzyintellect: "You ok?" as he's breathing hard too
[22:44] Agilbxr: *nods* "yeah...a little too ok" *is still clutching the cookie bag*
[22:47] dizzyintellect: "You sure?" as he leans in for another kiss while moving the cookies to where they won't get crumbed
[22:47] Agilbxr: "mmm....."
[22:49] dizzyintellect: Jeff breaks it off (he has to breathe too) and rolls them over with a grin "You have all the power"
[22:51] Agilbxr: *smiles and says softly* "it's a heady feeling having all the power" *runs one finger very lightly down his jawline, then leans down for a kiss*
[22:51] dizzyintellect: "You should try this en..." and then he gets kissed
[22:52] Agilbxr: *breaks off the kiss* "try what?"
[22:53] dizzyintellect: "Being under your power, of course"
[22:53] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "you seem to be exerting some of your own. "
[22:55] dizzyintellect: "But I leave the final say to you." He wraps his arms around her waist and pulls her close
[22:59] Agilbxr: *sighs softly, enjoying being held* "i've...never been with anyone other then Will. I want you...." *picks up his hand* "can you believe I'm nervous of all the damn things" *shakes her head in wonder*
[23:01] dizzyintellect: He nods "I can understand. You have already touched me in places I thought were dead. I'm afraid too, but better with you and fear than dead and without you"
[23:03] Agilbxr: *smiles and brings his hand up for a kiss* "very profound"
[23:04] dizzyintellect: "I have you to thank for it"
[23:05] Agilbxr: *chuckles softly* "no more talk...." *and kisses him deeply*
[23:05] dizzyintellect: He kisses back and does as Anna requests
[23:06] Agilbxr: *enjoys getting sand in uncomfortable places*
[23:07] dizzyintellect: So does Jeff, he's on bottom
[23:07] Agilbxr: *ends up next to Jeff, head on his shoulder, tracing his scars with one finger and smiling*
[23:08] dizzyintellect: He looks quite happy, and tired
[23:09] Agilbxr: *looks up at the sun* "we need to get back soon"
[23:10] dizzyintellect: He nods and slowly sits up, then pauses and looks down at her. "Then should we look for a room big enough for three?"
[23:11] Agilbxr: *smiles and shakes her head* "Medea just gets her own room. I can protect and ward her magically if we aren't in the same room"
[23:12] dizzyintellect: He laughs "That works too" he offers her a hand up, then pauses to admire before heading back to their initial picnic spot
[23:12] Agilbxr: *walks back, toting her suit and cookies, then gets ready to head back*
[23:14] dizzyintellect: Medea is crawling around, exploring, but hasn't gone far. Jeff scoops her up then stops "Oh.. pack up.." sets Medea down and helps gather everything together
[23:15] Agilbxr: *shakes he head* "play with her...I've got this" *packs everything, then casts cleanse on herself and Jeff before getting dressed*
[23:15] dizzyintellect: He nods and does so. She enjoys it
[23:16] Agilbxr: *stuffs everything back in her little bag, humming a soft tune while she packs, then stands up and looks around wistfully* "I guess I'm ready if you are"
[23:17] dizzyintellect: "I think we are" while he hurriedly dresses "How did you fit so much in that bag?"
[23:18] Agilbxr: "dimensional pocket. I could fit a house in here if I really wanted too"
[23:18] dizzyintellect: "Oh..."
[23:19] Agilbxr: *chuckles* "it's handy" *takes Jeff's hand and heads towards the ley line*
[23:20] dizzyintellect: He walks along contentedly. The return trip is easy enough, though it is after dark in Mexico
[23:20] Agilbxr: *keeps a wary eye out on the way from the leyline to Ringo's*
[23:21] dizzyintellect: It's a peaceful evening, except for the usual Juarez ruckus
[23:22] Agilbxr: *once home, heads upstairs for a shower before bed*
[23:23] dizzyintellect: Anna Maria finds a surprise in her bed when she gets out
[23:24] Agilbxr: *Smiles and joins Jeff* "Medea asleep?"
[23:24] dizzyintellect: "Happily. And tomorrow you canfix her whole room up" he smiles "But tonight, let me hold someone I love"
[23:25] Agilbxr: *sighs and enjoys a nice night before falling quite soundly asleep*
