[21:38] Agilbxr: *is in the barn, taking care of the horses*
[21:39] dizzyintellect: As you are coming back, you find Jeff practicing in the back yard between you and the house
[21:40] Agilbxr: *stops and watches him practicing, very carefully controlling her expression*
[21:41] dizzyintellect: He does not seem to notice. His eyes are closed and he's practicing at full speed, soaked with sweat
[21:41] Agilbxr: *just stands and watches until he's done*
[21:42] dizzyintellect: He goes on for a good half hour, then stops suddenly. "Oh..."
[21:42] Agilbxr: "hi..."
[21:43] dizzyintellect: "Um... Ringo?" More surprise than anything
[21:44] dizzyintellect: Then frowns. "I... I understand why you cannot stay with us..."
[21:45] Agilbxr: *blushes* "honestly, I don't remember much. He has some potent alcohol"
[21:47] Agilbxr: *just shrugs* "I don't know what I'm going to do right now...."
[21:48] dizzyintellect: "We don't either. Ringo said something about Percephone teaching Aliza and Lien Greek philosophes or something, but she has a hard time focusing on anyone but Medea and me"
[21:49] Agilbxr: *nods* "Ringo's going after the people that did this to her. And the rest of his people I guess. He thinks Percephone can help with that, but I think she needs a mage to bond with"
[21:50] dizzyintellect: "That's what Ringo said. And you've a pirate lord to deal with."
[21:50] Agilbxr: "yeah...." *sighs*
[21:52] dizzyintellect: "You'll be sailing soon?'
[21:52] Agilbxr: "I haven't made any plans to do anything"
[21:53] dizzyintellect: "Oh..." He looks very relieved
[21:54] Agilbxr: "I just don't know what to do" *closes her eyes briefly and looks at the ground*
[21:54] dizzyintellect: Per
[21:55] Agilbxr: 16+3
[21:55] dizzyintellect: He REALLY wants to wrap Anna up in a hug
[21:56] Agilbxr: *holds a hand up and shakes her head* "I don't think I could handle that right now. "
[21:59] dizzyintellect: "Anna... I... I don't know anymore"
[21:59] Agilbxr: *sits down crosslegged on the ground* "oh god, Jeff. I can't even tell you who I am right now, or what i need to do, or anything"
[22:01] dizzyintellect: He kneels ten feet or so away. "Because of Ringo? I know that was nothing, Ringo wouldn't let it be..."
[22:02] Agilbxr: *laughs shortly* "ringo has nothing to do with this. The only thing I remember from that encounter was waking up the next morning hoping my head would fall off. "
[22:03] dizzyintellect: He frowns "It's all about Perce..." and looks down
[22:05] Agilbxr: *shakes her head* "All I've ever wanted was to find the one man I love, and be with him and raise our children." *looks at Jeff with some seriously haunted eyes* "and I can't have that. Someone else has first claim, and I have no right to take you away from Percephone."
[22:06] dizzyintellect: "I know. And you can't share. I am torn too. I love you and her, the thought of being without hurts"
[22:07] Agilbxr: "Ringo wants me to stay and bond Percephone"
[22:08] dizzyintellect: He nods. "She would like that... She was always a bit disappointed Sappho wouldn't eve..." and his voice trails off
[22:09] Agilbxr: *sighs*
[22:09] dizzyintellect: He sits silently, staring at the ground
[22:10] Agilbxr: *rubs her temples* "I'd give a lot for someone to just tell me what to do...."
[22:11] dizzyintellect: "I wish I knew"
[22:12] Agilbxr: "yeah, me too. Our resident pimp seems to feel that Zues has sent me here to do something. If he has, he picked one hell of a good way of making me run the other direction"
[22:14] dizzyintellect: "If a child of Zeus doesn't know, how does a drunk, stoned murdered know the minds of the gods?"
[22:16] Agilbxr: *shrugs* "he wants me to stay because he knows that I can help with his quest. He could be making shit up. But if he's not, what other fucked up shit is Zues going to come up with to make me do his bidding. I tried to tell him a note or something detailing his expectations of me would be nice, but apparently he wasn't listening"
[22:17] dizzyintellect: "I don't care what Zeus wants. i don't care what Ringo thinks. I want you to stay"
[22:19] Agilbxr: *reaches out a hand towards him and then draws it back, putting it in her lap* "i just don't know if i...." *long sigh* " I have no interest in women, other than as friends. And I don't know how well I can share...if I even can...share the man I love." *is now crying silently*
[22:22] dizzyintellect: "It wasn't easy sharing Perce with Sappho. Perce was worth it... Medea is worth it..."
[22:25] Agilbxr: *wipes an eye and smiles sadly* "you have any idea how jealous I am of Percephone? I'd give anything to be in her shoes right now"
[22:25] dizzyintellect: "I know... I know..."
[22:26] Agilbxr: *pulls her knees up to her chest and hugs them, but doesn't say anything*
[22:28] dizzyintellect: "Anna, I won't lie. I don't know if it will be ok or not... But there is room in our hearts for you"
[22:29] Agilbxr: *nods her head, but stays where she is. She's trying very hard not break down into a complete girly sobbing fit*
[22:31] dizzyintellect: He walks on his knees over and grasps her hands
[22:31] dizzyintellect: And settled back to a sitting position in front of her
[22:31] Agilbxr: *looks up, tears just rolling down her face*
[22:32] dizzyintellect: He's staring at nothing, near tears himself
[22:35] dizzyintellect: But his grip is firm, steady
[22:38] Agilbxr: *reaches up and touches his cheek softly* "I....need." *swallows* "you. I don't know how to live otherwise"
[22:39] dizzyintellect: "I have the same problem. Will you stay then?"
[22:40] Agilbxr: *wipes an eye* "I'll try...that's all I can promise" *shakes her head* "I don't know how this can work, but I can try"
[22:42] dizzyintellect: "I heard once that life is pain, tht anyone saying different has someting to sell... the important think is we live anyway..." as he pulls anna into a bear hug that's not as strong as the ones she can deliver
[22:42] Agilbxr: *just stays there for awhile*
[22:44] dizzyintellect: Eventually he picks up Anna and carries her inside
[22:44] Agilbxr: *cries herself to sleep*
[22:46] dizzyintellect: Eventually Anna wakes in her bedroom, spooned by Jeff and with Perce on the other side. Everyone is fully clothed and the other two look much more peaceful than the last time she saw them. Anna can also see a piece of parchment on the nightstand with something smaller on top of it.
[22:48] Agilbxr: *checks to see if Jeff and Perce are awake*
[22:48] dizzyintellect: They both are out
[22:48] Agilbxr: *stays still, thinking, until they wake up*
[22:49] dizzyintellect: You feel a light touch on your arm
[22:49] Agilbxr: *looks over*
[22:51] dizzyintellect: Perce is regarding you with an odd look on her face
[22:51] Agilbxr: "hi...."
[22:52] dizzyintellect: Her face brightens a little. "You stayed" although it's hard to tell if that was a statement or a question
[22:53] Agilbxr: "i promised to try. that is the best I can do right now" *sits up carefully so as not to wake Jeff*
[22:55] dizzyintellect: She nods. "All we can do is try. But Jeff loves you, and I saw you with Medea... You adore each other..."
[22:57] Agilbxr: *smiles just a bit* "Medea is wonderful. But Perce, I don't...I've neve been the kind of person who shares well, if you understand what I'm saying. I don't know if I can. But I don't know if I can be without Jeff either."
[22:59] dizzyintellect: "Then be careful... When I am yours, I will obey you, maybe even your unspoken desires..."
[23:00] Agilbxr: *sighs* "I have no interest in women....not that way"
[23:01] dizzyintellect: "That's not what I mean... I might react to your desire to have Jeff to yourself... But you don't need to command me to make love to you. I would because Jeff loves you"
[23:02] Agilbxr: *shakes her head* "I would not do that to him...."
[23:03] dizzyintellect: "Good... It may be best if we sort ourselves better and tell him what we've come up with..." She frowns with a spike of anger "Aliza has already shown he can handle us both..."
[23:04] Agilbxr: "that's encouraging...." *bring on the sarcasm*
[23:07] dizzyintellect: "She looks like his first wife and she first pulled him out of the bottle he was hiding in... She holds no allure now... Well, not enough to snag him anymore..."
[23:09] Agilbxr: "trust me, I know that much" *sighs and leans back*
[23:09] dizzyintellect: "Then what do we do, mistress?"
[23:10] Agilbxr: "just Anna. I'm just Anna"
[23:10] dizzyintellect: "Anna..." She smiles and says it quietly to herself a few times
[23:14] Agilbxr: *nods* "I have no idea what we do now" *looks over at the bedside to see what the parchment is*
[23:16] dizzyintellect: On top is an ace of spades. The top of the parchment is a note "Use this to bond Percephone" with no signature. Under the note is a scroll of Find Familiar
[23:16] Agilbxr: *sighs* "does he always get what he wants?"
[23:17] dizzyintellect: Jeff "Huh?" and Perce "Who?"
[23:17] Agilbxr: "Ringo...."
[23:18] dizzyintellect: Jeff "Err..."
[23:18] Agilbxr: *looks at Jeff* "not that....."
[23:19] dizzyintellect: Perce giggles "He always did want Sappho"
[23:19] Agilbxr: "that just means he's an opportunistic asshole"
[23:20] dizzyintellect: Jeff "With good taste?"
[23:21] Agilbxr: "I'm not sure I'd say that. I'd say with, um...varied tastes. You've seen some of the women he's bedded?"
[23:22] dizzyintellect: Jeff "Touche..." Perce just snuggles up to him "What is it then?"
[23:23] Agilbxr: *nods at the table* "a present"
[23:24] dizzyintellect: Jeff takes it and reads it. "So, a spell?" Perce reads it and perks up
[23:24] Agilbxr: *nods* "yup"
[23:26] dizzyintellect: Perce reaches over and squeezes Anna's hand. "I... I can wait..."
[23:27] Agilbxr: *looks at her* "can you? I can tell you are having a hard time functioning. I am not sure how all this works, but I do know that much"
[23:28] dizzyintellect: She frowns. "I... don't know... It's clear right now..."
[23:28] dizzyintellect: Jeff pulls you over. "She's been staring into space a lot too"
[23:29] Agilbxr: *stays there for a minute, seemingly comfortable, before taking the scroll and using it*
[23:32] dizzyintellect: It works and Anna can feel Perce in her head, along with a rush of fierce loyalty. It's not exactly love, but Anna can command Perce to do anything and Perce will do it happily
[23:32] Agilbxr: *stares at Perce for a minute* "I don't think anyone should have this kind of control over another human...."
[23:33] Agilbxr: "who did this to you Perce?"
[23:36] dizzyintellect: "I'm not human..." and a rush of clarity from her. "I am a d-bee of some sort. I was like this when Sappho found me, but the bond was in a ring... Then they destroyed the ring and..." then she buries her face in Jeff's chest. Anna can sense some painful memories, though not their exact nature
[23:37] Agilbxr: *looks away briefly* "I'm sorry...."
[23:38] dizzyintellect: She reaches out and grips Anna's arm. Jeff just hugs her
[23:38] dizzyintellect: And Anna
[23:43] Agilbxr: *sits up*
[23:44] dizzyintellect: Jeff mouths "Anna" while hugging a woman with each arm
[23:47] Agilbxr: *raises an eyebrow* "yes?"
[23:47] dizzyintellect: His only response is to pull you closer to him
[23:47] Agilbxr: *sighs very softly and allows it, but isn't quite snuggling*
[23:48] dizzyintellect: He kisses Anna's head, then Perce's and she eventually stops sobbing
[23:50] Agilbxr: *closes her eyes and just...enjoys*
[23:52] dizzyintellect: Perce is happy to have Jeff and Anna with her while she regains her composure
[21:39] dizzyintellect: As you are coming back, you find Jeff practicing in the back yard between you and the house
[21:40] Agilbxr: *stops and watches him practicing, very carefully controlling her expression*
