@ Ashara - Hey, my poetry's so bad I don't even bother...yours was OK, tho! A bit Haiku-ish. Nice little, short 'n' sweet flirts
good one! No good at short n' sweet, myself. End up rambling on and on and on.....(*whistles innocently*). Anyway, gremlins have been nagging me about this one all day. So - here I go again :rolleyes: (quick!! run away!! Hide!!! She's back with ANOTHER one!!!!) Not sure who really starts it. Hey ho....
This would have to be set at night, during a thunderstorm. Probably when resting in an inn, but tents would do. If you wanted to rest in a tent in a thunderstorm, that is...( :blink: ). (Oh, and a note to safety freaks and physists, I am totally aware of the danger of lightning. But it's cool. So ner
) I think this may work pre nookie, but possibly after the dance. Dunno :rolleyes:
(Jeez, how come I can never seem to start these convincingly... <_< )
You are sitting, relaxing by yourself. There is a storm raging outside, with flashes of lightning crawling across the sky and crashes of thunder that you can feel through the floor. You look around at the group, and notice that Solaufein seems to be missing. Looking out of the window / tent flaps, you see him standing in the rain, watching the lightning. He watches each flash with an almost childlike awe, his mouth slightly open in wonder. He does not seem to notice the rain that pounds down on him, plastering his silvery white hair to his face and shoulders and his clothes to his ebon skinned body.
PC: *calls out* Solaufein!
Sola: <looks your way, excitement twinkling in his eyes> Look, <charname>! Look at the lightning!
PC:
1a) *smile* yes, I see it, Solaufein. But it is not safe to stand out in a storm. You could get hit. (see 2a)
1b) *smile* It's amazing, isn't it? (see 2b)
1c) *condesendingly* Its just a storm. Stay out in it like an idiot if you want. Don't come crying to me if you get hit, though. (see 2c)
Sola:
2a) *looks slightly confused* Hit? Oh, by the lightning itself? I suppose there is a danger in that. <he makes his way over to you>. (see 3a)
2b) <looks back towards the sky> Of all the wonders of the surface world...I never imagined how dramatic a storm could be! (see 3b)
2c) *gives you a strange look* But how can you not be awed? It's...amazing! (see 3c)
PC:
3a) <Solaufein walks over to you. He is soaked through>. *smile* you are soaked! Come inside and get dry. We can watch the rest of the storm from inside <extend your hand to him>. (see 4a)
3b) *laugh* Yes, they can be rather spectacular. Ones of this magnitude are pretty rare, though. (see 4b)
3c) *snort* Whatever. <turn away and leave - end>.
Sola:
4a) <almost absent mindedly, he takes your proffered hand, still watching the sky. A large flash makes him gasp, and pull you unconciously towards him>. (see 5a/5b)
4b) <he looks your way again, with a slightly mischevious grin> Come and join me then, <charname>! <he holds his arms out wide, tilts his head back and then shakes it to try to clear the rain from his eyes and face. The action is totally futile, but oddly endearing>. (see5c/5d)
PC:
5a) <slip your free arm around his waist, and continue to watch the storm>. (see 6a)
5b) Eww, Solaufein, you're all wet! <duck away from him, laughing>. (see 6b)
5c) *shrug* <you run out in to the storm towards him. The rain is cold and quickly soaks you to the skin, making your clothes cling to you.> *laugh* I can't believe I'm doing this... (see 6c)
5d) *laugh* I don't think so, Solaufein. Why don't you come here?(see 3a)
Sola:
6a)<he tenses slightly and looks at you, a little surprised, but does not pull away. He then flashes you a brilliant smile. You cannot help but notice the contrast between his white teeth and black skin. After a moment he looks back up and continues to storm watch>. (see 7a)
6b) <He treats you to a mischevious grin and pulls you closer, with the obvious intention of getting you as wet as he possibly can>. (see 7b/7c)
6c) <He laughs back at you as you make your way towards him, his arms still outstretched. As the rain soaks through your clothes his smile takes on a more lacivious edge. You look down and notice they have gone slightly transparent>. (see 7d/7e)
PC:
7a) <say nothing, but lean in towards him, resting your head on his shoulder. The scent of rain, old leather and the earth emanates from him. It is oddly compelling>.(see 8a)
7b) <pretend to struggle, and poke your tongue out at him. Eventually you give in, allowing him to wrap himself around you>. (see 8b)
7c) <pull yourself away>. No, Solaufein. I have no intention of getting wet. Pack it in! <stalk off - end>.
7d) <stop and look embarrassed and try to cover yourself up>. (see8c)
7e) *rolleyes* Oh, for the love of....*laugh* cheap clothes! What can I say! <keep heading towards him>. (see 8d)
Sola:
8a) <He tentatively returns your embrace by snaking his arm around your waist, and rests his cheek against the top of your head. You sit together until the storm begins to die down. As it dies, he turns to you>. I had heard of storms in the Underdark, but I had no idea they could be so spectacular. <he gives you a thoughtful look>. So wild and beautiful... (end)
8b) <laughing, he shakes his head at you, droplets of water cascading from his hair. He then stops, looking a little sheepish>. (see 9a)
8c) <he notices that you are uncomfortable, and so makes his way over to you>. Come on, <charname> Maybe we should go inside. (see 9b / 9c)
8d) *still grinning laciviously* Maybe I should say "thankyou"... (see 9d/9e)
PC:
9a) What's wrong? (see 10a)
9b) Ahh, no, Solaufein, I shall be fine! <take his hand and look up towards the sky. There is another stab of lightning that lights up the sky>. Did you see that?! see 10c)
9c) Maybe we should <turn around and head back inside - end>.
9d) *poke tongue out at him* (see 10b)
9e) <strike a pose> *tease* and why would you want to do that? (see 10d)
Sola:
10a) <for a second he looks a little uncertain, and then he laughs>. *mutters to himself* I keep forgetting....*to you* it is nothing. (see 11a / 11b)
10b) *pokes his tongue out back at you* (see 11c)
10c) <obviously not looking at the sky>. Indeed I did... (see 9d /11d)
10d) <laughs and blushes imperceptably>. (see 11d)
PC:
11a) *tease* so I'm nothing...(see 12a)
11b) *smile* Thats alright, then. <continue to watch the storm - end>.
11c) *laugh* Right! You've asked for it! <run towards him and attempt to rugby-tackle (clumsy, I know, rugby doesn't exisit on Faerun...but you get my point...) him to the ground>. (see 12b)
11d) <saunter over and slowly wrap your arms around his neck>.(see 12c)
Sola:
12a) *hastily* No! I mean, thats not what I meant at all...(see 13a)
12b) <He allows you run into him, and you both land in the mud. You squirm around in the mud for a while, laughing and trying to get the better of each other. Eventually you both have to stop for breath> *laughs* Look at us! We'll both need a bath now! (see 13b)
12c) <he looks into your eyes and raises one eyebrow. The blush that had previously graced his cheeks has now all but disappeared. He places his hands on your hips, and leans in to kiss you>. (see 13c)
PC:
13a) I was teasing, Solaufein! *smile* i...know what you meant. <kiss him on the cheek, and then continue to watch the storm - end>.
13b) *grin* Together? (see 14a)
13c) <A flash of lightning dances across the sky as you accept his kiss, but you are barely aware of it. All you can feel are his lips on yours, his hands on your hips and the rain cascading down your face. Eventually, you break apart>. (see 14b)
Sola:
14a) <looks a little shocked at your forwardness (not a word, I know, I know...), but then grins> If you wish, my lady/lord <end>.
14b) *looks up to the sky, and then back to you* So wild and beautiful....<end>.
Oh dear...so very long again :unsure: :rolleyes: .....
Anyway, thunderstorms RULE!!!
(and could not resist mud wrestling.... :rolleyes: . *Slaps wrist* naughty Elysia!)
