[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
This gargantuine creature wore... a tailored suit? She looked up to her maxium foe, and for a breif period of time all that anxiety and hatred disappated. My, what pretty eyes he had! So much brighter then her own deep ocean blue eyes. It was almost unrealistic the intensity of his blue eyes and it made her feel vulnerable. Were her own eye color not sufficient? Wait Why was he here? She looked him over once again. He looked like a city slicker, dressed up in such fine cloths what was he doing with the newspaper clipping? He wasn't here to develop the land was he.Acting quick, she gave silly smile acting oblivious to the fact that they were indeed rivals. Uncalloused hands slipped into his. She would keep them smooth and soft through nightly pampering just because she was hard working didn't mean she wasn't allowed to splurg here at there. Her grip became firm as she used him to hoist herself up. She stood nearly a foot shorter than him! She turned her face up to him as she continued to smile, "That's okay! My mind is usually distracted, so its mostly my fault." Removing her hand, she held it behind herself.Kasumi enquired, "So.. what are you doing here at City Hall, Mister City Man."

He looked down to her and looked her over briefly with a soft smile as she went through various expressions while looking up at him. Pushing his glasses back up the bridge of his nose to cover his eyes he leaned away and lowered his hand so she could lift herself. Looking down once more he looked about and to his cellphone once more. Still no signal and he sighed before he ran his fingers through his hair and spoke. "I came here to actually kinda settle in, wanted to be back home but according to this one of the two farms my family owned is being sold, it has to be some kind of mistake so I'm off to fix this mess, and hopefully find a cellphone signal along the way." He said to her with one long sentence a bare few half pauses sprinkled within.He noted her grip before she pulled back, her skin was smooth but her hand was rather firm. It marked her as a farmer though her lack of a tan did not. Her immediate interest in something as small as the paper caught his attention as well. "You want this paper and the land don't you." He said flatly to her his eyes slightly narrowing. "I'm sure we can come to some sort of agreement since I'm telling you my parents never sold that land."
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
The lucky bastard! Here he was, born into wealth, and one farm wasn't good enough for him! No matter his size, he'd probably just get bored within the first few days. Obviously he was a worhtless lazy slug who didn't know hard work. Kasumi sighed softly, "There isn't any service here because of the mountains, so its no use trying." She dropped her bag to the floor it landed with the sound of a ton of metal! What the hell did she keep in there? Turning around, she bent over and began to dig through the assortment of items. Her rump, so ample and perfectly shaped teased him with a slight view of that pale skin of hers. She had little dimples on her lower back, very close to the top of her bottom. The torn, and worn short shorts exposed in that certain country style. She pulled out a sack of coins, a huge one at that. All her life's work going towards buying her own farm. Turning around, her breasts jiggled. Ah yes, what a lovely thing it was to have supple D cup breasts. Nice and perky, and so perfect for handling. Then, it happened.She looked up to him with tears in her pretty eyes,"How selfish of you! If you have one plot of land to farm, that is plenty of work. What would you need of two? I will gladly take the farm as advertised in the paper, I even have money!" She held up the large sack of various coin pieces she had been working a while, hadn't she?
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He looked to her and laughed softly. Most of his younger life he'd done farm work, a few times he even plowed the field's sans horse as a test of strength creating his massive physique. Looking her over he licked his lips subconsciously before he pocketed his cellphone and shook his head. "Ah, well I'll just order a satellite phone from a landline." He amply said before he moved back. Hearing her statement he laughed. "ITs not about the money..its about what you stand for,' He simply said before he pressed it back into her hands. "My family owns that land and its being illegally sold. I won't stand for it." He simply said before he began to shift around her. "If ou can't understand that dear its not a need to fight over." Turning from her her continued to walk taking his tone as eh stepped to now look around. IT greatly slowed his pace but it allowed him t o more more care.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Kasumi followed at his heels. Morality? Suddenly, he stopped, and she bumped into him again. "Ooph!" This time, grabbed onto his shirt, keeping herself close. It was odd seeing how tiny she was in comparison to him. Her breasts pushed against his torso as she looked up to him with pleading eyes. "So... after the whole sale is settled, then what? Do you suspect me to go back? Its not every day land is being sold so cheaply, including buildings." Oh! Her perfectly plush lips protuded slightly in a small sexy pout. "You wouldn't be able to take care of the land by yourself, you know..."
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He rounded on her and looked down looming over her as though some kind of legendary monster about to strike her down before he leaned in closer his face close to hers his eyes almost glowing with their intensity before he simply said. "You're right. Would you like a job as a farmer?" He asked her slowly. "I can just join the two farms." He added before he pulled back and turned to walk toward city hall again. "Look darlin, I won't have my family's property stolen, I grew up there." He said firmly. "Only thing separating the two farms is a fence really, remove it and I've got somewhat large farm. I'll convert one wholly to mining and the other to agriculture and it should work out rather nicely." He said. "Oh..I'm Akira by the way." He said suddenly turning back to her and bowing slowly. "And you are?" He asked now looking to her. He could take his time, they'd have to inspect the land and such and he knew they'd likely not do it till a few days after so as long as he got to city hall before it closed today.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
No! This couldn't be happening. She frowned a little, hearing his offer. She watched him with sad eyes as he walked away. For too long did she work on other farms, put all her love and health into the feilds and animals. then be booted off for refusing the lechturous old men. There he posed a question, but her reaction was all not what most would expect. She was terribly teary eyed what a terrible thing he had done! Destroying her hopes and dreams, just so he could hold onto a few memories. Sighing, Kasumi picked up her bag and swung it back on. She held the giant sack of coins and walked towards him. Her eyes turned hard, and steelie, "My name is Kasumi Higurashi. And you are an idiot. Don't go destroying your land to mine, there is a perfectly good one in the mountains. Really, for someone who lived here you don't know much." She gave him a glare, before turning down another corridor and walking through the doors. Her bum rolling wonderfully behind her. That man put her in such a fowel mood! She talked to the mayor, purchased a plot of land then marched out with half of her bag of gold. She ignored him completely, and went to fetch her hat.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He looked to her and laughed softly before he shook his head. "You don't get it, I'd mine under, dear there's already a basement in the house, I'd just be going down and then once I reached an adequate depth spreading outward." He simply said to her with a nod. He smiled broadly and genuinely to her before he shrugged and shook his head. "Idiot or not, tis my land dear." He said to her. "I can do with it as I please can I not?" He asked her slowly. "What would you do, farm it? Till it? There are plenty of crop, dairy, and other farmers around here. Actually I might turn the second into a vineyard." He said while running his finger under his chin. Soon after his talk with the Mayor he was walking out with the young lady's gold in his pocket. He'd let her keep the piece of land she'd bought, he figured it was the least he could do seeing as how upset she was. Perhaps on occasion maybe the occasional cow or chicken would wander to her farm using this money. He thought to himself as he patted his pocket.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
She did not buy any of his property, rather, he had his two full farms. Why would she attempt to when he already stated he owned them? Her efforts would be fruitless, but, what she had done was a bit more in her character. Kasumi had noticed the feild of flowers, just infront of the ocean. It was a grand feild, and could be seen between the trees that lined the dirt path. She had observed the bank made such a deep drop from one smooth hill to a large platue perfect for farming. There was a large thick trunked apple tree. There were a few other fruit trees near it, which of course now belonged to her. There was a patch created by these large, spaced out trees that was shaded a wonderful area to keep animals.She had gone to the carpentor's and commissioned a house to be built in the side of the bank. Such a funny house! But it would be her own home, straight out of a fairy tale. The carpentors left to begin digging. Kasumi had picked up her large parcle of valuables she had backed away for this trip, ontop of it she stacked a cage with two chickens. She uffed and puffed as this girl who was strong as a bull, carried the huge box to her new location. Placing them down on the ground, Kasumi moved to the flat land.Pulling out her hoe, she began to plow even rows into the ground.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He took the money from the mayor and deposited it into the bank on the way to his farms. He arrived to find both in states of disrepair and as such he called up a number of professionals to do much of the rewiring on the house and the fixing of the foundation. Walking along he began to patch up fences and took account of the buildings and the state they were in. He simply walked and walked his eyes wandering about slowly before he came to the end of his property. It was a cliff that overlooked the nearby ocean, and down off in the distance, he could see her, she wasn't far away but he found it interesting she had settled in there of all places. He wondered what she'd sow so close to the sea especially if the tide came in or there was a storm that made it rise. "Rice?" He wondered aloud before he sat on the edge of the cliff to watch her.He was fascinated at her determination watching as she tilled the fields with a hoe and had her two chickens, he could see the desire even from the distance that she had to be a success and build a farm. His fingers trailed along his lips and down to his chin before he stood up and walked back toward his farm. He soon found himself on the road around and eventually came upon two digging men. Walking past them toward her field he waved. "Hello neighbor." He called loudly to her.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
She was nearly done! No, the feild was far too high up for the tide to hurt it. Hearingthatvoice, she frowned. What did he want? To rub in her face that he was rich? By that point, she had stripped out of her grey t shirt, and black sports bra wearing what seemed to be a piece of cloth. OH! How wonderful it cupped her breasts, making them look much larger as they were pressed up to her abdemon. Resting the hoe on her shoulder, she took a casual pose, giving him a bit of a wave,"Need somethin'?"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He looked her over briefly and ran his fingers through his hair while he looked her over. "Mmm I see," He simply said as he looked about to the barely done field. "You know, you should get a plow for this sort of thing, goes a lot faster." He said to her before he nodded. "I was just being neighborly, welcoming you to the area." He said to her cordially before bowing and then tossing a small goild filled purse to her. "You know to help you get started, were rivals now, you and I"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Her hand came up in just time to catch the purse filled with coins like a lecross stick. She gave it a little toss, and squeezed it. What a sweet gift, trying to buy her off like that! She walked over to a large carboard box, stuffed backpack, and wooden trunk. With ease, she swung the hoe down, and rested it against the trunk. As for the bag of coins, she put that away in her napsack. Rummaging about, she pulled out a jar. Walking right up to him, her body glistening slightly, and her breasts jiggling just a tad, she stopped. She looked up to him innocently, holding up the preservative. She gave an adorible smile, "Aw Well, thank you. Here, to get you started... Sometimes food is hard to come by when you're just starting out," Looking up to him, she gave yet another genuine smile, "I made this on the last farm I worked. Please enjoy it, rival"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He laughed softly while he ran his fingers along a flower in thought while he watched her. She was truly determined. He also watched as she pulled out a jar and presented him with it. "Oh...well if its half as tasty as its maker I'm sure its good." He said before he looked to her and nodded before placing the jar into an overly large pocket. "Thank you dear
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
She ran a hand through her long wild curls. Giving it a little shake. Her bands were pulled back off her face, then fell back into their usual spot. She then made the connection. Her voice changed from that cute tone to something more, strong, "You're stairing at my breasts is that any way to be a rival, Akira?" Oh! How deliciously peachy they were though. What a time he would have cupping them. Kasumi poked him in the fore head, "So... anything else you need?"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"I'm looking at the sea behind you, one big enough storm and your crops might be ruined." He simply said to her. "If there's flooding inland this is where it'll come to the sea as well, its like being caught between a rock and a hard place..though if its mild flooding the silt will do wonders of your crop." He said crossing his arms and looking to her while shaking his head. "Though your breasts are..cute I guess." He said flicking up a hand as though nonchalant and uncaring about it.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Kasumi rolled her eyes then turned around to pick up her shirt. Pulling it on she called to him, "That's right City boys like girls with fake parts, and vegtables pumped with unhealthy chemicals." She looked to the area, then back to him. She laughed softly, "Silly boy! I'm going to have a green house made here. That's why I'm tilling the land." She smiled sweetly to the strapping men who looked to be in their mid twenties. Oh! What god like figures they had.They gave her a slight wave, and a smile of their teeth. Not crooked, but they weren't exactly wonderful. She strode back to Akira her hips rolling gently. Her breasts giving a small bounce. "Thank you very much for your concern, but I've got plenty of work to do."
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"So says you country girl." He said as he looked over. "Oh cute, you hired Luke and Derek..they still plowing their sister?" He asked in a way that made it uncertain whether or not he was joking. "Well I'll get back to my farm, and farm it properly, you know, with a plow." He said as he walked away from her. "You try to be neighborly and people get snippy." He said as he walked past her and towards the ocean, he'd simply climb up the cliff to get home it seemed far too much work now to actually go back from whence he'd come.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Kasumi looked at him oddly what the fuck was he trying to do? The main road was in the opposite direction! She snagged his hand, and marched him past her work area, through the traill of trees that were in full blossom. Soon enough, they stood below the falling pink petals. She sighed a bit, "You must be a very unhappy, and disillusioned person." She rubbed the back of her neck, "First off, you came onto MY land, stated that we are now rivals, when you take my ambitions and stamp on them with your italian leather shoes. And then you have the nerve to oggle me, tell me after oggling me that my body isn't much. Not to mention insult me and everything I have done to lead up to this day. To tell me that I'm snippy. Please." She looked him over then pointed to his suit, "You also have a tear in your suit. I'd fix it for you, but, we're rivals.." She suddenly smacked him, "Ohh Such sweet bliss!" She giggled, looking over her hand. "Been wanting to do that since hearing you tell me that you just NEED to own two plots of land." She giggled. She then looked to him seriously, "Oh, by the way, try not making remarks about the villagers. They may just hate you for it one day."
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He glared at her before he leaned in closer after she smacked him he'd waited for her to finish her rant and had seen it coming but let it happen. "Look, you don't seem to get my life, I live it as I please, I don't need a farm, I don't need money, but I'd rather try something nw." He said to her brusquely. "Its annoying to have a little girl come around and try to buy your birthright, especially one as highstrung and annoying as yourself." He laughed before he looked down. "Also, they're English, and frankly what does it matter? How did I? Because I showed up and didn't let myself get ripped off? Well excuse me little girl for not letting someone get away with stealing my family's land. He continued his eyes narrowing as he spoke. "I honestly don't need you to fix this, or anything." He said before he looked to her and snickered. "I come by, being hospitable, giving a bit of a joke, and you strike me, you're pathetic." He simply finished before he began to walk away. "Those two plots belong to my family, my father worked hard for them, I wasn't about to let either be stolen by some spoiled little nothing who feels she's entitled."
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
It clicked. Oh shit. Frowning, the 'spoiled child' ran around him. She had a pack that when cracked, it cooled. She the wraped in a floral pattern hanky. Lightly she pressed it to the red mark on his face, to cool the enflamed mark. Would accept this act from the woman who just slapped him? The hanky carried her scent, which was something that appealed very delicately to the nose. Maybe he made something that, well, got her in the soft spot. She spoke to him in a very gentle tone, "I wish I was spoiled. Rather, I am far too proud." She gave him a small a smirk, "So are you, but I think it suits you better." Her eyes found his for a second, both of them were blue. They both had beating hearts, and muscles which would be in pain at the end of the day. "You sure are brave to live at notice from a drop of a hat, especially to come here after, six was it, years." Her free hand lightly ran along his, taunting it to follow hers up to his cheek to hold the cold pack there. "I am brave, stupid, and in the wrong for hitting you." She looked back to his cheek, letting out a small sigh. "It was unrulley and childish of me to act on my first reaction..." She added on, "... but not everyone can afford a plow when starting off." Was that her spoken comment to proove that she was not spoiled? The entire time she spoke soothingly, as if to calm him. She did not wish to affend him any more. For if her farm failed, what would she do? no one would buy the property.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"Look things can be rough..its why I left. My parents were barely making it by but they had their land and their workers they couldn't afford to pay for my college fund as well. They worked tirelessly day and night to help others and all it got them was an early grave whereas me..I'm a success, why shouldn't I try to continue?" He asked her his hand now cupping the back of her's. "I have a bunch of plows if you're not too proud to accept one that's got an odd angle, its kind of narrow." He said slowly to her. "In any case, hitting someone is one of the most harsh things you can do over what? Senseless banter?" He asked her his voice slightly incredulous as he released her hand. "I didn't even feel the pain just the pressure. I used to be a farmboy too you know." He said with slight disdain. "I did the work of five hands, every day, by myself, so maybe you should learn something about people before you assume." He continued as he began to walk.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Her eyes sparkled with fascination what a paitient man! She blushed just a tad, having his hand press to her own. That pale skin displaying it freely infront of his face. She had no time to respond before he broke the serenity of the moment. Her smile fell, and her hand left his cheek to hold the cold pack. "... I forgot to count to ten." Shrugging lightly, she walked back to her farm her thumbs hooked into her pants. Soon enough, she began to sing to herself, having a smooth voice, "I am a man of constant sorrows, I've seen trouble all my days..." She continued singing Man of Constant Sorrows, all the way back to her property.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He made his way back to his farm and sighed stretching slowly before slipping inside the farmhouse after unlocking the heavily padlocked door. Stripping down he laid out the clothing on the bed and changed into overalls and a black t shirt slipping his feet into steeltoed workboots before tying the snaps of the overalls about his waist before he walked over to the barn. All the animals were gone, long stolen from the farm. Walking down the road he sighed softly as he noted all the damage that had been done to it over the years. "Man...its just...gone." He said as he looked about him and sank to his knees. "Dad..its gone." He said before lowering his eyes and covering his head.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Dark, thick storm clouds began to rumble across the once blue skys. The ceiling of the world now a bland grey color which grew more and more black. Big blobs of freezing water began to hit mother earth. Drip, drip, drop! PSSSH! There were a few warning bits of rain.Daiki and Atsuo sunk their shovles into the ground once again to find the ground extreamily soft. In unison they raised their brow, and checked the skys. Akira's perdiction was true! The ground was unstable. The men walked over to Kasumi who was slowly sinking in her knely bedded feild. She knew it too.A steady stream of tears leaked from her eyes. How could this happen? She was given their word that her money would be returned. But, it didn't mater to her. Being alone in the pouring rain, she cried heavily. Why did this have to happen?The bickering cluck of her wet chickens shaken her from her state. Quickly rushing over, she began to drape the tarp of her tent over the cage. Turning around, she watched indismay a strong wind which blew her tent up into the trees.She fell to her knees, and bawled her eyes out. Then it dawned on her, she could stay at the Inn! Maybe Akira would let her keep her chickens on his farm for a few days.Packing up her items, Miss Kasumi rushed up the hill. She was completely drenched by the time she reached his door. Gently, she knocked on the house door shivering.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Akira lay in bed, a bottle of whiskey in a hand over the edge of it. His form naked but for a sheet barely covering his groin. He stared up at the ceiling wondering why this had happened. His parents had only died three months before and yet everything was in ruins. He'd made money, sent it home why was it happening this way? Hearing the knock he staggered up. He looked outside and noted the rain and walked with the bottle in hand to the door sheet draped around his midsection. He made his way down to it and yanked it open. "What do you......." He began before he saw who was standing on his porch. "One second." He said slamming the door. Looking around he noted the lack of furniture and the dustiness, it was rather embarassing to think she'd come into his house and see it.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
After a few minutes of waiting in the rain, Kasumi knocked again. She waited, until the angered clucking became louder. "Shit!" Exclaimed Kasumi. Looking in directions, she searched for the hen house. There it was, a small building just past the first plot of land. Dropping her things, she ran to his coop. Not a single animal. Odd. Placing the birds in, they quickly nestled themselves into the beds of soft hay now becomming silent. She placed a handful of feed to last them the night, since they had a large lunch. Quickly running back, and slightly out of breath, she knocked.Her blonde hair was slick to the sides of her face, as were her cloths tight and uncomfortable to her body. She spoke through the door, "I hope you don't mind, but is it alright if the chickens stay in your coop for the night? Its raining pretty hard out here."
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He opened the door wearing some pajama bottoms and a black tshirt. He'd not had any time to clean but he stepped back. "yEah um come inside...excuse the mess." He said before he faltered. "I'm..um..thinkin of redecorating so I had the stuff moved out." He said to her slowly, he had turned out and then slightly unscrewed all of the bulbs so she couldn't see the veneer of dust showing that the rooms had been bare for some time and only his and his parents' locked rooms had been preserved. "Come in, come upstairs, lets get you into some clean dry clothes." He said slowly.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"O oh," She blushed, he was being rather hospitable. She felt terrible for having acted to rash towards him. Her cheeks darkened slightly what was she to do? He acted as if she intended to spend the night! Looking down to herself, her skin was now land of the goose bump hills! Her nipples poked out against the chilly wet fabric that clung helplessly to her form. She nodded softly, then staked her things up and walked in. The water pooled in small puddles on the floor as she walked in. "S sorry for the mess, I'll mop it up." She placed the soggy box that nearly fell apart at the small touch. Her backpack oozed water, but the trunk was a bit damp. Picking it up with ease, this girl who was so small, had the strength of two bulls! Big beefy ones at that. It was hard to see in the low light, but she followed the sound of his voice to the foot of some stairs, "I just go up?"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He was still too drunk to quite see her as she was rather than as a slightly blurred outline of a person. "Yeah just go up." He said as he lifted her trunk carrying it with one hand up the stairs. "Don't worry about the puddles, I have to get the floors refinished anyway." He said to her with a shrug before he marched her down the hall. Unlocking the door he gestured inward. "This was our guest bedroom, pink dresser should have women's clothing to your liking." He said slowly. "There are no hotels or motels around, so why not just stay here for a bit?" He said surreptiously dropping the trunk then looking to it. "Ooo my mistake." He said with a shake of his head. "Well...need anything or..should I just go?"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"Are you sure?" Inquired Kasumi about the floor. Soon enough, she was standing in a dim room it was awfully dark in his house. But this helped to hide his untidyness. Walking about, she gave a great big smile, "Oh! Akira san! This is the most luxerious room I have ever seen!" She quickly stepped to him, before drapping her arms around him for an embrace. Her wet form pressed to his, as she whispered, "You are much too kind." Kasumi stopped though, smelling whisky on his breath. She frowned slightly, before letting go and walking over to the dresser. "I will be down in a bit to make some tea, if you don't mind,"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"Yeah I'm sure, there'a bathroom attached to the room and yeah." He said as he pulled back from her once she let go of him. "You..enjoy your tea..I'm going to bed." He said as he slipped back and made his way down the hall slowly past his parent's bedroom and into his room locking the door behind himself as he did so and flopping face down onto his bed.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Kasumi did just that. The next morning, the light from the sun flooded the room she had so comfortably rested in. Stretching, she came face to face with the fact that the house was not clean. Rising out of bed, still wearing asheer lavender night gown, that was more of a negliege than anything, she wandered down the steps to the kitchen. Not much to work with. Cracking open her cardboard box, she pulled out the nessisary equipment and began to cook breakfast.The outfit in question was a see through material. It flowed about her body elegantly. It was a dress with sleeves that puffed out around her wrists then tightened. It also tightened just beneith the bust, and was V necked. Her hair was pulled to the side in a pony tail.Humming, Kasumi cooked up a storm!
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Akira woke up naked once more, the bottle now empty and under the bed having rolled there when it fell from his fingers. Staggering out of bed and still drunk he opened his door. He could smell the scent of something but he ignored it as well as his headache. Maybe it was something from a nearby farm. He covered his ears to drive it out as he didn't like the loud noises due to his wooziness, making his way down to the kitchen to look for something to eat he paused in the doorway staring blankly at the young woman in negligee. His morning wood instantly stiffened a bit more before he tried to cover it.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Not just any woman, but THAT woman. Conviently, Kasumi had brought her kitchen supplies she had gained over the years. A rice steamer, crock pot, and electric stove element. She also had enough rice to last herself a week, and a few potatos, and turnips not to mention preserves from the last farm. She was chopping away, slicing up some pickled vegtables for breakfast. There was a little sway to her backside as she moved about the kitchen so easily. Stopping, she smiled over to Akira,"Good morning sleepy head! Breakfast will be done in a minute."She resumed her earlier task.Kasumi being a farmer's girl had concocted a healthy meal. She had broild some fish she caught the other day, made a pot of miso soup, and steamed some rice. She puttered about, setting the table that was low to the ground she had even whiped it down of its dust!
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He looked back to her making sure to lock eye contact so she wouldn't glance down before he swung back around the door frame. Pulling on a pair of pajama bottoms soon after in his bedroom he vaguely remember their conversation from the night before. He walked back to the kitchen and into it while keeping his erection safely hidden under a black tshirt he'd pulled on and trapping it in the waist band it was half out and under the tshirt pressed against his muscular stomach. "Morning...I don't think I caught your name." He said to her slowly with a nod.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
When he returned, Kasumi had served him a piping hot bowl of miso soup the seaweed and sliced tofu floating in it. Of course, if she had any green onions, it would have been much better. Along with it, there was a fish which smelled of charcoal when did she have enough time to broil it? And where? Not to mention how did she get it. There was a bowl of pickled goods set out in the middle for them to munch at. She had poured each of them a hot cup of tea.Kasumi was currently seated on one of the four cushions by the low table. She turned her face up to Akira, placing a bowl of white rice to the setting that seemed to be laid out for him. My name is Kasumi Higurashi, it was surprising to hear her so cheerful.Then, she spotted it. A large bulge in his sleep wear. Her cheeks turned just about as red as her pickled plums. She blinked softly, before looking up to Akira trying to keep her mind off of what lurked beneath his clothing.

He looked at it all bewildered and delighted as he tried to hide his expression. He looked to her ,his eyes looking over her as his member swelled and began to throb tenting out his shirt as he thought of her before he raised up his knees to hide it. "Oh, my did you bring all this?" He asked her slowly. "It is very nicem I couldn't." He began as he waved. "I mean you've spent your hard earned money and I already arranged to have breakfast delivered." He said to her slowly his mouth actually watering somewhat. "It'll be here in about an hour and...erm..." He continued looking away from her quickly. His face was already reddening before he bit his lip and shrugged. "Anyways...I think you should eat first you are my guest."
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
She shook her head lightly, "I didn't spend a dime. I had all of this to get me here," Sighing softly, she picked up her chopsticks. "I thought... It was the least I could do for having you let me spend the night, and... yesterday." She had served herself as well. Bowl of rice in one hand, her chopsticks carefully splitting the fish into a smaller piece to eat. Chewing on it, and swallowing, she began again, "Besides, you don't have much time before you have to start plowing."It was nice, staying in such a warm little house, alas, she would have to leave. Maybe the mayor would repurchase the land she had bought?
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He laughed softly before he shook his head. "I see, so you brought your food and now you'll be..heh, and as for plowing I'm thinking about plowing right now." He said before he ran his fingers along his jawline with a soft slow sigh. He made his way closer to her and licked his lips before he spoke again. "Well dear how about we focus on you my guest. Will you be buying a proper house, or would you like to simply stay here, I haven't been to the other side but there was a smaller house over there. Or if you're willing to do work, we could just incorporate your land and you live..." He realized what he was saying as it slowly slipped out" here." He looked down before he licked his lips and ran his fingers through his hair. "Your land would be just fine for rice farming."
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Kasumi ate slowly as he spoke. Did he know that the grund which she bought was sturdy? Maybe it was because he had lived there for so long... She listened, and when he mentioned 'here', Kasumi gave a hard gulp. She looked up to him with pink cheeks she was definately a virgin. "O oh,I don't know if I could ask that of you..." But the bed she had curled up in was western! And it was so soft, oh It was like sleeping on clouds. She nodded gently, "Yes, rice patties would be best there. Yesterday, the ground became unsteady, so... I came here to leave my chickens," She gave him a genuine smile, "then, you let me spend the night." She gave him a nod of her head, smiling more, "I promise to be a hard worker, Mako san!"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He looked to her before he sighed and shook his head. "Its what was grown there before. Our neighbor used to farm it, he was rather nice, till one day he just walked into the ocean." He said shaking his head slowly. "My mother said it was because he felt alone and completely failed by those around him." He said to her before he ran his fingers through his hair. "In any case dear living here would be fine, it gets so lonely here in this big empty house." He said in a slow sigh
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
She looked to him softly, "Well, talking of loneliness will not eat this breakfast I just slaved over, so sit down and eat up." Kasumi wore a cheerful smile on her face, "Besides, it won't be so empty once we refernish!" She gave a small giggle, before promptly eating. Her bossoms lightly pressing together he'd have a LOT of plowing to do.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He looked her over briefly before he stroked his fingers along the table. Picking up some chopsticks he leaned in and took a small bite. "Thank you, how can I repay you?" He asked in a slightly teasing tone before he noted her leaning forward. His member's throbbing wouldn't allow him to stop groaning softly every time he felt it rub. "I've gotta use the bathroom." He said suddenly before he stood and rushed out of the room.

Kasumi looked to him curiously as he left. She let out a sigh of relief how terribly he made her blush. Finishing her own meal, she began to clean up. The day went by quickly, Kasumi having changed into her work outfit shorts and a t shirt. The two had cleared the land of its rubble, plowed all the feilds, and planted seeds. It was the late afternoon when Kasumi returned from the carptentor's. She had been given a good portion of her money back for the payment of having the buildings not built. On her way back, she heard good news from a traveling sales man! A cow for sale! She quickly purchased it, walking with Betsie, back to the farm.The birds chirped in the trees what a happy spring day! The chickens clucked, and Kasumi's new friend let out a low moo as she was transported into the open pasture. She smiled happily to the cow, lightly stroking it. Maybe she was to be a rancher, rather than a farmer?
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Akira was heading to the fields soon after in his coveralls and black t shirt before he made his way through to the field. He laughed softly before he noted his lack of a horse. "Of course." He said before he walked back to the barn. He attached the plow to himself using a harness that was far too small for a horse. "Oh I do remember this." He said as he began to tug and dragged it to the field before he made his way along after adjusting it. He finished the field in about two hours having thrown trash out of the way as he went along, then he leaned back. "I'ma need to buy a proper plow."
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Betsie, the cow, nuzzled her side affectionately, and Kasumi could not help but giggle. With no brush, it was hard to shower a cow with affection, so she simply pet its head again. Her blue eyes scanned the foresaken farm. Their were holes in roof, broken fenses, fallen trees, rubble and mayhem. But! As her eyes fell on Akira, she felt warm inside. To him, this was his home, his diamond, and he would certainly work hard to bring it to its former glory or make it even better! She smiled softly to herself, then tilted her head. He was already finished! With her basket underneith her arm, she strode over to him in the feilds.Smiling up to his sweaty face, she adressed him, "Mako san, I bought the seeds! We'll have plenty of turnips, and potatos, not to mention juicy cucumbers for pickling! Cabages, and strawberries." Her mouth almost began to salivate at the sound of food. She tiltedher head, "Where would you like to plant what?"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He stood in the field sweating heavily under the high sun. The plow lay behind him the straps still attached before he pulled it off to one side and then walked back to her. "Well we still need to furrow the land properly then we'll split it up, strawberries need vines to grow on so I'll get to putting down posts a bit later, as do cucumbers, but as for the rest, we'll divide up the field by the number of seeds you have." He said to her. "But today seems like its extra dry, lets head back to the house. The effort had gotten his blood pumping hard so now he had a bit of a hardon sticking up beneath his overalls but he didn't notice it.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
She shook her head, "Its alright. If you wish, you can retire, but I will finish the plot. When you are feeling more rested," Kasumi smiled to him, "... then come and help me." She stepped away from him, and set down her backpack. Her waterbottle clanked amungst her other few valubles. Humming softly, she pulled out her tool and began to get to work at clowding their land.What a funny thing to think... their land.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"No its fine." He said as hen stretched. He soon turned and walked off to the far section using two tools to break up the clods of dirt. It being a hot day it made it easy and soon he'd done half the field. Sighing he walked over to her once he was finished. "ITs too hot and dry today to plant dear, maybe we should pack it in?"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
She was almost finished her portion she was so much slower than him! But her work was thurough. Kasumi rested her tool on her shoulder, and a loud huff of hair escaped her lips. What was he talking about. Whiping her forehead on her arm, she closed her eyes in thought, "Hm..." Squinting softly, she looked to the current hight of the sun. No wonder it was so hot! It was high noon. Sighing, the impaitient Kasumi shoved her hand into her pocket, "Yeah... its hot out. In a few hours we can plant the rest... I'll get the baskets out for the strawberries."Baskets? Strawberries? What? Well, the one thing she had learned was the best way to grow strawberries was in baskets that way they could be moved inside during colder months to keep them away from frostbite.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"Dear, we are in this together, do what suits you best." He said to her slowly before he turned. "I'm heading back to the house for something to drink and to rest." He said to her before he turned walking past as he undid his overalls. It was rather hot for no reason but he intended to return to work in a while, his father had always warned him of the perils of heat stroke and it made no sense to die just to get a few plants in the ground.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"Dear..?" She muttered to herself. Why does he keep calling her that? The other day he hated her, and now... he was calling her dear. She shook her head softly and shrugged. Walking over to her backpack, she put on her floppy straw hat, and took a long drink of water before finishing the plot. She spent all of the early afternoon spreading manuer on the feild. She'd stop for water breaks here and there, but the day still had light to it! And she wouldn't stop until she was well on her feet again. They had to go make rice patties too! Lots of work, such little time. She looked over the plot, sitting down on the soft grass. Tomorrow, they would plant. Sighing softly, she got up and walked to the house. She'd pull out her hand woven baskets and assemble them later. Right now, she was going to take a bit of time to entertain herself.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
He returned to the house and slowly ran his fingers through his hair. Opening his fridge took out a large metal pitcher then poured himself a tall glass of lemonade before placing the pitcher back. Drinking it he made his way back outside and as he walked out the door picked up a straw hat. Laying across a hanging bench he covered his eyes with the hat as he swung softly in the shade. He didn't hear her approach the house due t oth e creaking of the old wood and the chain.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
She sat down by the tree where the bench hung. In her lap was a little paper notebook. On it, she sketched the current picture of the farm yard. She would make a secondary picture with adjustments to them. As she sat and drew in the shade of the tree, there was a soft rustling from the bushes, then a small yip! Out hopped a timid tea cup bunny. Its body and fur was that of a chinchilla, and it would never grow any larger! It hopped along, its small ears flexing about as it sat on the grass. Kasumi obversed from afar, flipping to a new page to draw this little creature.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Returning once the sun had retreated behind the clouds he made his way along to the fields. Stretching he yawned as he looked back and forth along the rows. "Mmm" He groaned to himself before he walked toward her. "What are you up to?" He asked her slowly as he made his way over to her.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Kasumi looked up from her note pad, waaaay up to the handsome face of the man she owed a great deal of graditude towards. She smiled softly, as the baby bunny lay in her lap, sleeping soundly. She whispered, "I found a bunny!" She had this childish joy to her face as she told him about her little friend. The small creature nuzzled her leg before curling up closer.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"Ah, that's cute." he said simply, in actuality he was slightly concerned for their crops. Rabbits for as cute as some thought they were were still rodents. Rodents who would consume their crops without the slightest of hesitation,.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
Kasumi lightly scratched behind the little creature's ears. "Hm." She thought, looking down to the soft fur. She spoke softly, "Perhaps we aught to put a fence up, and possibly set some traps? Pelts would fetch a high price, and rabit stew is rather filling." She gave an innocent smile. The rabbit, unknowing to her schemes, enjoyed the affection.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"It takes a sick woman to plan to kill a creature and its kin while showering it with such caresses." He said with a slight smirk. "I think I'm in love." He added jokingly before he made his way past her. "There should be some wire around here, my dad had up a fence previously, and honestly I think we only have a few I think we could just hunt them down, how are you with a rifle?"He asked her simply.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
She gasped in horror, "Oh no! We could never kill poor Flopsy. No, no, she is much more special." She nuzzled the small bunny, "I plan on breeding her, since her pelt is so fine.. a coat made of the fur of such a soft creature will fetch a nice price." Kasumi scratched behind Flopsy's ear. She looked to the creature softly, "I'm.. alright... with a rifle." Lifting her hands, she nuzzled the bunny. She looked up to him with large eyes, "Can we keep her?"
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"But then you need to keep a male alive, and if they escape..well then we'll likely have an infestation on our hands and we'll need to either have a quick turnover or lots of space to prevent inbreeding." He said to her simply. "You can keep her, but you're responsible for her and her offspring." He said simply to her as he continued to walk. He made his way to a shed at the far end of the field and could be heard swearing loudly. He returned carrying a large coil of fencing on his shoulder. "They took all the rifles, I guess I'll need to go into town and stock up on more than I thought."
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"That's alright. Since it is too dry out to plant anything, I will fix up the old rabbit cage!" She smiled as she pointed to the brown box attached to the barn. Scooping up the little Flopsy, she smiled, "Come along, my little Flopsy, and we will build you a new home." Her intentions were simple. Place a fenced in pen for her rabbit friend to roam some what free during the day, and fix up the old rabbit cage to keep her in at night, and keep the fox out too. She headed inside to grab her hammer and nails. Oh yes! And she would plant cabbages and turnips to feed her little creature beside the area.
[Anansi x Izzy] Make Love to Me Beneath the Harvest Moon
"Ok then you do that, I'm going to head into town." He said to her simply before he began walking off after dropping the fencing wire. "I'm taking the truck so if you need to leave there's a bike near the barn." He said simply to her. "Maybe I can get a few tools while I'm out too, I mean if I can get a good deal on a combine why not." He said with a slight laugh as he headed off and soon was speeding down the road toward town.

The forest was stirring, but tonight, more then it usually had. The trees and their entirety sang the copses of oaks, bushes and rivers, even the wild life was singing, kneeling before the immense aura that permeated the ruins. Since Zathrian's demise at the hands of the Grey Wardens, his curse of "lycanthropy" had supposedly been dispelled, returning those branded by his vengeful talons to their original statures. The blight which threatened to destroy all of Ferelden had since been thwarted by the Grey Wardens and the indigenous were slowly but surely beginning to put together the shattered pieces of their lives. However, the disease that Zathrian inflicted upon those who did wrong to him was not completely alleviated. While some curse victims were completely cured, others were "half" cured. Those who were half cured were able to assume human and lycan form at will while still maintaining their wolven physical attributes. Some had deemed this as a burden, while others, a fabulous blessing. To those who accepted it, they believed they could form their own race, a superior race. An ardent, eerie glow burned through the ruins that balmy evening, casting mysterious shadows here and there. A throng of werewolves were huddled around a snapped pillar, seemingly conversing while another group proceeded into the broken temple. One within the group was seemingly human, but the flaxen glow of their chilling gold eyes suggested otherwise. Whispers emitted from their maws like a song, following a string of loud, shaking footfalls. Tonight the werewolf clan remnants from Zathrian's affliction had gathered to the heart of the forest to meet a new face. This tyrant, as they had deemed him, claimed he could lead their race to victory and ensure that their existence would never again be undermined and always be feared. Some were skeptic while others traveled to the ruins only to sate their intrigue. There was one werewolf a woman, in fact that wasn't so moved by this stranger's agnostic claims. Her eyes bore through the spectral light cast down from the plump moon, nearby spectators thrown aback by her sudden intrusion. The woman was tall amazonian, with flesh touched by the deserts and a long, starless mane which framed her exotic face in a roguish manner. One of the werewolves a man ogled her for an instant then grunted to the others, quickly disdaining her sudden appearance. They had known her as Ammon, but since becoming a werewolf, they had often referred to her as "Banshee" simply because her howls were composed of beautiful tones she would sit in the forest and sing until the sun rose, but as a human, she nary uttered even a sound. The woman, clad in a tight, ashen bandeau and a coal colored cardigan, trekked into the ruins and down the stair well where the Lady of the Forest was once housed. It was here that this new "leader" was to speak, and undoubtedly, the woman would have something to say concerning his leadership.
dragon age - { dream x ace }
In the thicket of the forest, deep within it's nestling trees, stood a ruin of seemingly no potential as it laid in broken heaps, but deep within it's descending caverns gathered a fairly large group of creatures. Creatures that had thought to been extinct now that the 'curse' that plagued them had ended. But the curse had not cured all of them and instead of returning to their human states, the werewolves had become something new, something different, yet something entirely the same.That was why he was here. In the midst of the crowd of werewolves stood a cloaked figure he stood higher than the rest with feet planted firmly on a half broken pillar. His face was hidden in shadows except for his lips that were held firmly in a expressionless line and they were surrounded with light stubble of a dark brown that was almost black. He raised his head only slightly as more werewolves gathered and he could not only feel, but hear every heart beat within the room, as well as beyond the stone walls.He was new here, with a small group of werewolves he had found scattered around Ferelden. They were like him half turned, confused, afraid, and lost. A lot had happened to him before meeting these creatures much like himself and he himself had become something new. What he had become had never been seen by the likes of any races in their world and the power he held was to be used to create a new world. One in which all of his people could live and not have to fear leaving their forests.Tension hung thickly in the air and Jericho looked over the crowd though he could see them clearly in several senses, they could not see him in the same manner. His face still hidden by darkness, the scent and figure of him were masked as well, a secret he had learned over the years and planned to teach to those who wished to follow him. "My dear brethren," his rich, metallic voice rang clear through the silence, everyone's attention now solely on the cloaked man, "my name is Jericho and I am here to save you." His words strung together with captivating intonation and sincerity, but he spoke quickly, almost as though he were in a hurry and his words became urgent, though not quite begging. "The world outside these ruins are not kind to our like, especially now that we have become something... similar to human, but more. They resent us and will continue to do so. I tell you this because it is the truth. I have been there, outside and in their world, and seen what they are capable of." Throwing back his hood, a face was revealed with gasps from the people around him. His dark hair had been slicked back to expose a scar that had liberated him of half his face. It was mangled flesh, churned and charred with colors of pink, red, and even black. The right had barely been saved, the scar missing it only barely. His life side, however, could be called handsome and had even warrant a few flirts from human girls when he had been in disguise, though he himself had never bothered with such endeavors. Skin bronzed by the sun was covered in other, smaller scars and his eyes held the same yellow as the rest of theirs, but the iris was lined in a deep orange as well, almost glowing as he looked over his kind. "This is what humans do. Elves, dwarves, Grey Wardens, nobles, commoners. Everyone."Now he stepped down from the pillar and as he searched through the crowd, he was sure to make eye contact with everyone there. Coming across one of the rare females in the crowd, he felt a dark tension rising from her, but hoped his words to come would help her understand. His eyes hardened as he took her in and when his lips moved, fangs caught moonlight that crept through the cracks in the foundation. "They will kill you. They will hunt you down. For years, I was taken prisoner by humans, kept like a slave, but treated like an animal. They did not kill me but that was a mistake." Jericho raised his hand and spread his fingers, an orange flame playing at the tips of his fingers, the same color in his eyes glowing brighter. "I possess a power that has never touched this earth. An Old God came to me, in my dreams, and gave me the power to liberate myself. And all of you. If you follow me, I promise you will have a future for yourselves." He stopped then, the glow and flames dying out instantly he folded his arms within deep sleeves, bowing his head. "Follow me and you can howl at the moon any night you like and not fear being heard and hunted. Follow me and you will be able to stretch your legs to any part of this world without a bother." He let his words sink in, waiting for any answer or response before continuing.

Like water, the sea of werewolves parted for Ammon's passing. She was a prominent figure to their race, a twenty three year old woman that was wise beyond her age and had emerged victorious from many battles, most with men twice her size. Outside of battles she was philosophical and regal soundless, she seldom spoke, but when she did it was something relative. She was displeased by his childish preaching. These ambitions in which he sermoned spelled nothing but genocide in her stoic mind. From where he stood, a top a tumbled over pillar near the colossus statue hoisted against the wall, she peered up at him. She did not have the eyes of her kin, but rather, the eyes of a "demon". Their glimmering, tempest shade of hazel allowed her to blend in with humans as they were now wise to werewolf aesthetics and could pick them out by their flaxen eyes. Amongst the questionable bickering she emerged from the shadow, her long, thick hair mimicking her movements as she inaudibly strode out in front of the crowd. "Genocide, is it?" The crowd's bickering came to an abrupt, almost disturbingly swift stop. Had Ammon spoken? They were enthused by the regalness in her voice, how commanding yet soft it was. Undoubtedly she had something of importance to say. "Your ambitions are your own, not ours. The humans, the dalish, the dwarves and even qunari ... clearly you are not politically enlightened. The blight forced them all into an alliance. If you lead us into their starving maws, they will launch a counterattack and slaughter every last one of us. We are still suffering losses from the Archdemon's attack and you want to lead a broken race to their deaths? I don't know what the fuck goes on in your twisted mind, and I cannot speak for all of us, but I want no part of this." The instant the woman's low, buttery voice came to a halt, the werewolves began bickering again. Some were already convinced that this tyrant could do a great deal for their people. As they conversed amongst themselves, an elderly man hobbled out from the copse of flesh and fur, consulting Ammon before she departed. "He does not wish us ill will, Ammon." His eyes were sullen had told stories of many wards, "I think he is aware of the consequences and knows that we are willing to embrace them. The qunari were like us, once, attacked because other races were ignorant to their customs. We must make ourselves known." Ammon silently sneered. "I won't bother entertaining this ... or this ignorant bastard sitting high on his throne. Do what you'd like. I am not your deity." Silence again the others were listening in on the conversation between the elder and the clan's most dignified warrior. "We could use your help ... he could. At least hear him out."
dragon age - { dream x ace }
Jericho watched silently as Ammon made her protest and listened carefully to her words. When she stopped near the entrance to speak to an elderly man, he approached with careful, silent steps. "I understand your concern, my lady, but I assure you my plans are not nearly as destructive as you may think." He inclined his head while removing his hands from his sleeves and he smiled, very slightly. This woman was obviously of importance to these people and he would need her consent before he could have respect from the rest of the weres. Though his life had made him jaded, he knew on a realistic level what needed to be done and he would not let his own emotions overrun that. "No one can defeat so many races in one, fierce attack. No, this is something that must be accomplished slowly and with an intelligent grace only our kind possesses," he spoke lowly but knew everyone could hear him but his eyes never left Ammon's. "You will be of a great help to our cause, my lady, and I would be honored if you would join me and my followers. We follow the path of the Old Gods and it is their wishes that we do this. This power has been granted to me so our kind may have a future. What would have us do, my lady? Continue to hide in fear in this ruin?" He cast a disdainful glance around the crumbling walls with raised hands. "This is no place for wolves." He paced through the crowd of wolves with senses on high alert as he felt them out, their very souls singing out to him. His hand hovered before him as his eyes closed, moving with tentative steps. His nostrils flared as their smell permeated the air around them and he could smell the mixture of fear, anxiousness, and nervousness."Brethren, I am not asking you to make me your leader, your alpha, or your king. I am asking you to follow me as an equal does family not help each other in times of crisis? For that is what this is and it will only grow worse as the years come. We cannot stand idly by as these people continue to take our kind, torture them, and slaughter them. The Old Gods gave me power because they believe in our cause. Would you deny them?" He turned to face everyone once more and once again his eyes caught Ammon's. Would she follow him or continue to think him insane? Perhaps he was and even if he admitted to it, would it change anything? No, the Old Gods had given him this power for a reason and he intended to carry that out.

Gods. Deities. Ammon was not a believer but rather, a skeptic. She enjoyed entertaining the idea of some agnostic being guarding them, keeping balance and sanctity, but it was a difficult notion to stomach. Therefore, she was unconvinced with this strangers sermoning and was still left in a state of disbelief. She was not easily swayed by his preaching, but, for the sake of these callow people she had to at least acknowledge both his presence and his claims. "Perhaps he believes we can spread our disease," intervened the elder, his eyes bright with confidence, "A mere graze of our claws or clip of our teeth and anyone be they qunari or human will become infected and turn. That process alone will weed out those who are strong, as only they will survive the turning." Ammon said nothing. She merely observed, her arms laid slack at her curvaceous sides. She knew she was powerless to stop those who were confident that this man could steer them to the road of greatness. "I apologize, stranger." The elder bowed his head, cognizant of Ammon's brooding. Her silence was evidence of this. "Ammon is accustomed to peace. Though our living conditions are not entirely ... desirable, it is this pacifism that we have practice for most of our lycan lives. Perhaps we should further discuss this in the morning, when our minds and ires are rested and our bellies full. Come. There is an uninhabited chamber on the lower levels of the ruins. You may rest there." A child appeared. Her clothing was torn ripped, frayed from destructive hands. Her pretty young face was sullied with the earth's soil, her sable man mangled and matted. She was sobbing. "B Butterfly!" she cried, scampering over to bury her visage on Ammon's pant leg. "T There ... there are men in the forest. Humans ... hunters. They tried to, to ..." Ammon's stoic face went hard eyes stony, first furled in tight fists. The werewolf elder Kale was taken aback by this sudden change in Ammon's visage and instantly worried by it. For those who knew Ammon, they were aware that she had unofficially adopted an orphan werewolf child whose mother had gone missing nearly four months prior. While the child's elder sister was still able to care for her, she took a liking to Ammon and called the immaculate woman her "butterfly". "Humans?" Kale breathed, "Here? At night? Are they insane? They've been growing increaslingly daring over the past week months. Stranger ... if you want Ammon's approval, this may be your chance." By that time Ammon had taken off. Like an elegant creature she scaled the nearby pillars towards an opening at the top of the underground temple where she proceeded outside, to teach these brazen humans a lesson about having the audacity to touch a child.
dragon age - { dream x ace }
The child's distress caused an overwhelming pain to swell inside of Jericho and before the words had left the elder's mouth, he was on the move. The cloak had been abandoned, as well as his human form, and he leaped over the crowd of weres as he hurried through the stone corridors. Humans! This was exactly what he had been speaking about he could not let injustices like this continue. With the Old Gods' power, he'd rip out all those humans throats and burn their remains to ashes.Soon he was in the forest and as he pads dug deep into the earth, he gave a ground shaking howl that sounded throughout the forest causing all birds to soar to the sky and animals to fidget restlessly. He pounded through the trees and shrubs, following the distinct smell of blood and human. Ammon's scent was thick in the air, too, and he absently worried for the other were's safety. He knew a warrior of her status could handle herself well, but attacks done with an emotional imbalance ended badly. His pace quickened and he could hear the cries and wales of humans and the distinct, deep growl of a were.Jericho jumped through the shrubs and his paws made contact with a human's chest and he went down screaming as the were's jaws ripped into the human's flesh. In his wolf form, he was much different than the other weres. He was distinctly a wolf, but the largest one ever to be seen on all fours, he stood as tall as a human with a dark coat that shown a deep brown in the light. His mangled face covered less in this form, but still scarred him thoroughly, no hair growing there.He looked for Ammon as another human swung an axe from behind with invisible speed, Jericho caught the man's arm in his mouth and there was a loud crunched along with a blood curdling scream. How dare these humans invade their forest and treat his kind this way! That poor little girl... Jericho bit down harder and rode the man to the ground, fangs digging into his chest and neck through the completely eaten off arm.

Unlike Jericho, Ammon had a different method of hunting. She was labeled one of the clan's most superior warriors for her uniqueness and different approach to driving away humans. She was the type to torture someone psychologically, to toy with their minds and amplify their fears, make them cognizant of the true meaning of terror. It was because of these methods that she was often deemed a monster by her kin. She unearthed a dispersed group of humans, undoubtedly ones that ran when they heard the howls of other werewolves nearby in a distant copse of oak trees. Within the darkness of the forest's canopy, she assumed her lycan form, embracing the dark magic that was cast unwillingly upon her. Unlike most females she was much larger, her coat a starless hue of sable, thick and wiry, shimmering with tiny flecks of gold upon her back. She let forth a low, curdling growl, startling one of the humans which was toting around an oversized crossbow. He was evidentially frightened by the manner in which he trembled, mentioning to his comrades that maybe it wasn't a wise idea to brave the forest at night. Werewolves were not the only antagonists that governed the wood slyvans and shades had as well, give or take a few darkspawn here and there. When they had trekked into the forest deeply enough, she bore her teeth which were illuminated by the moonlight. Her maw was filled with them, all white and jagged, a horrifying depiction. The men yelped and fled while some attempted to fight, but to no avail. Her massive paws were easily able to subdue her victims, snapping their bones with one mighty swat. One of the humans who had managed to find a decent leeway shot an arrow into her arm. She was infuriated by their brazenness and bolted towards them, the very earth shaking under her weight, trampling them in the process. There was but one human left alive, trembling in terror. She collected him as if he were her spoils, dragging him unwillingly through the trees. "P please! Let me go!" he pleaded, immediately interrupted by the gluttonous howls of awaiting and quite hungry werewolves. She took a note of Jericho's appearance, still unpleased and unmoved by both his appearance and act of selflessness concerning the child. She snorted at the mere thought of it, startling the human in the process.

At Ammon's arrival, the rest of the humans were already slain. The last of the werewolves gathered around the corpses stren in pieces around the small grove. Jericho growled at the human Ammon brought toward them, a deep menacing sound that struck fear deep into the human's heart. From his guess, there were about ten humans here that he had killed, but he had smelt another group heading off into the distant forest. He could only assume Ammon led them there and sprang an attack he was impressed by her workmanship, as well as her skill. The human she carried was alive, but he doubted she was going to keep him that way for long.The large wolf examined the human with dark eyes. Why had they come here? Who were these creatures to think they could enter the forest in the dead of night? They must have been wishing death for that is all it led them to. "Human," he all but growled, "what are you doing in this forest?"Sweat trickled down the man's skull as the weres closed in around him, all of them now in wolf form and bearing teeth. Jericho kept his face placid, but felt an anger stir deep within himself, like cold flames trailing through his heart. It was not his place to kill this man, however he was Ammon's catch, not his, and not the rest of the pack's. What she did with him was her business. The human had remained silent so Jericho directed his gaze to Ammon. "What will you do with him?"

"That, stranger, is none of your concern. Please do as elder Kale has asked of you and retire to your quarters for the evening." Her voice was garbled a marred mess in this cursed form. It did not depict her human voice, which was smooth and stoic, but rather, depicted the monster in which she assumed the guise of. She struggled to show some manner of kindness to their visitor but it was immensely difficult. She had no respect for him, and as a result, she would most likely not affiliate herself with him. When they returned to the ruins, the werewolf child's elder sister was their, her burning red hair a brilliant rendering which matched her emotion furious. She watched the captured human with her flaxen gaze, immediately taking on her werewolf form to further startle him. "Thank you, sister," she growled, tracing her pink tongue over each one of her knife like teeth. Ammon, being continually selfless, had brought this human as a prize for the child's sister. It was not Ammon's place to punish him ... but rather, the child's sibling's. While she left the human to the whims of the irate woman, Ammon ventured off to the far corner of the room to lick her wounds. She reassumed her human form, gently prodding at the arrow which bore through her coffee colored flesh. A ginger wince fled from her lips eyes went drab with a sense of agony while she began testing how she was to remove the projectile from her bicep. "Fuck," she cursed silently. She knew just what she would have to do to remove the weapon ... and it would not be, in any way shape or form, pleasurable. Without much further adieu she slammed the blunt end of the arrowhead into a local statue her eyes went wide, littered with liquid torture while she felt the arrowhead rip through muscle, sinew and twisted flesh. It broke the skin on the others side of her arm, the arrowhead itself emerging in a sea of blood and metal. Next, she snapped the head off with relative ease, disdaining it upon the ground then gently pulling the neck of the arrow from the wound. It was not a pleasurable experience, but if anything, necessary.

The night fell silent as Ammon stalked away with her prey, leaving Jericho and the weres alone with decaying human remains. After moments of staring up at the moon hanging brilliantly in the sky, Jericho instructed the weres to clean the mess and bring back some parts of the human for food. They did as he said, even cleaning the pieces in a near by river before taking them back to the ruins. Jericho made sure each did this thoroughly and carried the heaviest back. He tried to understand Ammon's view and could see how she might see him as a stranger, but he wished to no longer be a stranger. He could bring something to her life no one else could if she could see that, would she trust him and follow him? He wanted nothing more than what was good for their people. He had seen enough death and destruction on their part to not care how much the other side received. He wanted them to suffer.There, he discovered what Ammon had done with the prisoner and silently thanked her for the deed. He saw the gleam of triumph in the young were's eyes when he passed her by and gave her a reassuring smile of hope as he shaped back into the form of a man. Walking with bare, human feet he made his way to the barely whimpering Ammon. He crouched by her, brushing his fingers against her wound. "I can take care of this for you," he said with a soft tone he had not used with anyone else. But he waited for an answer, not wanting to push her further away. The powers given to him were many, healing one of them. It was a difficult skill to master but after years of practice, he had learned well. It helped specially in times of children's first turns, healing their aching bones and allowing the process to proceed without incident.He wanted Ammon to see the good he could do. That the power he had been gifted with was here to help liberate all of them. Vindicate their race and let them run free. Every were wanted that and he knew, deep down, Ammon did, too.

"Don't touch me!" Her voice came out in a pretty sneer, eyes burning with vulpine fury. While she a woman who liked to comfort others with an embrace, she was not fond of strangers having the audacity to mindlessly reach out and address her physically. Admittedly, Ammon was confident that he wielded some power ... but she was not yet ready to accept him. At the resonating howl that fell from the grace of her lips, she realized just how unreasonable she was acting and bowed her head in shame. She reached out and gently took the man by his forearm, leading him into a long corridor which was eerily silent. The shadows cast by dimly lit torches illuminated the stone hallway just enough for her to see, and to insure that no one would notice their hiding place. "I am haunted by the images of these innocent people being taken advantage of ... men, enslaved, murdered women and young girls being violently raped, beaten. I've seen it before ... I've seen what the humans do, especially to women. They take these ... these children's bodies after they've destroyed their tiny wombs and toss their mangled corpses into the gorge to think, they do this even to their own kind. That is genocide at its worst." Her voice was soft and low she did her best to offer him her ear so that she did not come off immensely commandeering. "Revenge is like a disease ... a festering, foul disease. We want it so badly that in the process of exacting it, we cannot see who is guilty and who is not. Those who have not sinned are judged by one who lawfully cannot judge themselves. I don't want these people being corrupted by this. If you can reassure me that you will not let them fall victim to this blindness ... then I will stand aside and let you do as you see fit."

Ammon's change in demeanor struck Jericho hard as he watched the emotions flicker in the woman's eyes. He listened to her carefully, understanding her views better now. "I see what you are saying. Perhaps... there is other ways we can go about this. My initial way of starting our uprising would be infiltrating the humans' cities," he explained, "in disguise. It will open our peoples eyes to the humans' injustices as well help us understand why they are the way they are. If we are to face them, it is best we know them better than we know each other." He paused, fingers extended to her wounded arm. "There is much time and our people will always have a choice. They do not have to follow me. If you believe their anger is beginning to destroy them, we can stop. My only wish is to put these humans to justice... to let our people be free."Pressing his fingers to the wound on her arm, his fingertips pulsed with a steady orange hue, spreading over her skin and replenishing it. There would be pain in the healing process, stings of everything being stitched back together, but in moments the deed was done and her arm healed. Jericho wiped the last of the blood away with his thumb tentatively. "Humans... have done such horrible things to our people. You've seen what they've done... I've seen so much and am haunted nightly as well. Every time I close my eyes, I see our people dying. I see what they've done, over and over." Something they had in common, Jericho noted he had long wondered if others saw the dead with closed eyes. The pain erupted every time his eyes shut and the darkness closed in. It was more than he could stand sometimes. Soon... soon he'd see those monsters put to rest.

The woman was amazed with her wound it had virtually disappeared, gone with the stranger's gentle touch. While she wasn't so easily deterred by the abrupt stinging sensation, she was however, slightly enraptured with this man's mysterious gift. She was not ready to ask him nor was she overtly interested. Perhaps the answer would come on its own. "And we've done so much to the humans. We're all to blame it's a viscous circle that each one of us contribute to, someway, somehow." It was true that the humans' efforts were becoming increasingly daring as of late while the werewolves were growing more and more mellow with each passing day. The humans were entering the forests, boring through trees like fire through ice, ripping their ancient roots from the undisturbed earth and even having the audacity to braze the wood during nightfall. This was known werewolf territory, where the beats ruled, and even wild sylvans ran a muck. Soon they would attack the ruin in great numbers. This day was approaching quickly and Ammon feared they would not survive the attack, not with the humans' exponentially growing population. Suddenly, the regal woman placed her hand upon Jericho's shoulder. Her fingers dug into the material of his cloak, trembling, while her eyes depicted a rather fearful claim. "I'm putting my trust in you," she began, instilling her passion, making it as apparent as she possibly could, "These people cannot bare another heavy loss in battle. You are confident, and I want to trust this confidence ... but if you are to fail, just once " she raised her finger, long and elegant, hanging it just in front of his marred, twisted face, "I will personally enjoy your slow torture, brother."

Responding with a suave smile, Jericho took the raised finger and wrapped a large hand over her's. "I would not have it any other way, my sister. Perhaps, while we prepare our people, you would care to tell me what you think we should do?" He was generally curious as to what Ammon's personal thoughts were on the matter she seemed to think much on it and he was sure she would be able to bring to light something he may not have seen. It was his duty to understand his people as well as the enemy and it would be unjust for him to force all his plans on others while not listening to their's. This was their war, not only his. "We will do this together, Ammon, and I wish to hear all our people's opinions before we take any immediate action. Please, I would much love to hear your view."He released her fingers and inclined his head for her to follow. Personally, he enjoyed to walk and talk, instead of linger in one place. Enthralling conversations were best kept at a walking pace, he found, and there was much for him to see yet of the ruins. Knowing the place he would be staying and hopefully executing most of their plans was crucial for him and walking with Ammon provided the chance of her taking him to places he would have not found on his own.

While they walked, Ammon figured that she could kill two birds with one stone discuss important issues with him and simultaneously lead him to his sleeping quarters where he would be staying for the remainder of his stay. Undoubtedly the other werewolves may have been wondering just where they wondered off to, but it was not unheard of for two newly acquainted werewolves to partake in more "sexual" relations. "I really want no part of this but ... if it means minimal casualty then I will help. I believe that making use of our curse may be the focal point in truly bringing human civilization to its knees. We have our kin stalk a group of hunters dispersed from Denerim. When they are on their way home, they attack, infecting the group of humans but leaving them alive. Once the humans return to Denerim they will start to witness the change ... and when they do change for the first time, they will attack their comrades and ultimately, start a chain of events that will grow exponentially until our race dwarfs that of the humans. From there we may be able to dominate other races such was the elves and qunari but it will be a tedious process." She noticed that the man's quarters were coming into view and stopped almost instantly. "We will talk more tomorrow if need be, though I prefer that you consult Kale before myself. My role in this isn't important."

Eyes alert, Jericho memorized every part of the place he would now be staying and took note of all the exits closest to the room that would be his. The longer they walked, the more in depth Ammon became with her views and he enjoyed hearing her opinion on the matter. She was not only intelligent, but looked at things in more than one way he could admire that and respected her more for it. Her people respected her as well which told him he should listen to her words carefully.He smiled at Ammon's plan and said, "I had an idea similar to that. I can, more or less, disguise myself as a human and can teach you all as well. We will be able to move among them without their slightest notice." Stopping when Ammon did and he inclined his head politely. "You are as important as the rest of them. Everyone is important in this this is all our war and we all play a part. I will likely see you tomorrow. Sleep well, Ammon." He bowed every so slightly with hands in his sleeves and stalked toward his room in a lingering grace, already planning his tasks for the day to come.

Over a course of a month, the werewolves living within the Brecillian Ruins had grown quite fond of their self appointed leader Jericho. He was a recognizable face amongst their people they felt comfortable around him, protected, now confident that he could fulfill the prophecy in which he preached. A week after his appearance Ammon was summoned to attend an important meeting in Orlais concerning the werewolves' dwindling population of females. Being one of the few which survived the turn, others wishes to hear of her experience from her own tongue and hoped they could use this forbearance to further increase the survival rate. To make matters particularly worse the elder werewolf, Kale, had fallen mysterious ill following her departure. It was a completely unfathomable that a seventy seven year old human, as weak and brittle as he was, would survive the change. Due to this inspiring feat, the werewolf clan as small as it was had appointed Kale their superior. But even now ... he was dying, and quickly. When his corpse had withered away they would have no one to lead them. All of them were cognizant of Ammon's position in the grand scheme of things. She would undoubtedly refuse an inauguration, however, this new comer may not. "We have ... terrible news." Amongst the crowd was Ammon her body was sore from the trip, fatigued even, and she found her eyes left sullen from the werewolf perched a top a nearby broken column. "Early this morning Kale passed away. He was a wise man ... and his spirit was undoubtedly a fierce one. However, we promised him that we would not falter as we all perceived his death many months ago. That being said, our short lived tradition says that the wise thing to do would be to elect a new leader. But ... alas, we have no candidates." Suddenly, Jericho's name began floating around. Ammon was visually taken aback by his nomination. Had three weeks made this much of a difference? "Jericho? I see. Aside from that, brothers and sisters ... the human's attacks have been growing increasingly brave as we have previously discussed. Jericho's plan is beginning to come to fruition, however, if he does not act soon we may be forced to abandon the ruins and find elsewhere to live." Jeers and boos spilled from the crowd. Some even howled in protest, but the crier was visually undisturbed. "We will discuss this further tomorrow afternoon, then. Ammon has returned and she may have something to add. Rest well." The hulking beast hobbled away which had dispersed the tight group of beasts and humans. Ammon was left alone now, silence by the soundless echo of the grand chamber. Not soon thereafter the woman found herself on one of the lower levels of the ruins, in an alcove that was vastly unused. Inside was an enormous pool of water, all but three and a half feet in height barely enough to drown in. The ruin was built over a hotspring. Over a course of a decade or two after the ruins were abandoned the elements began to erode the stone and otherwise allow the piping hot lake to seep through separated cinder. She could barely make out the intricate pattern of the stone on the wall due to the thick layer of steam permeating throughout the room. She was, however, pleased with the solidarity and lack of people emptiness. When she was sure not a soul was entering she removed her leather jerkin as well as the bodice underneath her leggings fell around her thighs, draping her ankles while she disdained every article of clothing save for a questionable looking pendant framing her neck. The sensation of the water consuming her body was if anything pleasing, something she had craved quite a bit during her trek.

The death of Kale had struck Jericho hard and after the man had been put to rest, Jericho wandered the depths of the forest for some time. Kale had been more than kind to Jericho since he had arrived here. Seeing the old man brought a sense of joy to being and their talks were often long and intriguing. Much older than Jericho, the old man had many things to say concerning his past and his dealings with humans, even when he was such a being.During his walk, he thought mostly of what would happen to this clan of people now that their elder was gone. The humans were becoming bolder each day and venturing deeper and deeper into their woods. They have been able to hold them off as best they can, but it was no illusion to Jericho that the humans would eventually over run them if they did not do something soon. It was a brewing problem and he needed solutions.Eventually in his wandering, he descended the depths of the ruins to a room in which steam rolled out. No one ventured this low in the caverns and he distinctly could hear the sound of water a hot spring, he imagined. As he came closer, he heard the vague splashing of someone swimming and a steady heart beat. One at peace.Stepping into the room, he found a pile of discarded clothing at this feet. Ammon's. His lips curled into a soft smile as he took another step forward, calling out into the mist, "Mind if I join you?" Before she could answer, he removed his cloak and shirt, slipping out of his pants within seconds. Jericho slid into the water gently, the warm water soothing him instantly.

Underneath the unflattering clothing, the pauldrons, drab leather jerkin and robes, Ammon had an attractive feminine frame. She was a healthy woman, tall and soft, though beneath her bronzed skin was layer upon layer of mistreated yet firm, well sculpted muscle. Though her upper body and midsection hadn't showcased this crafted muscle definition, her long, lean legs had. She wanted so badly to treat herself properly, to iron out the brutalized sinew, wash her hair, do things a woman did. But this was virtually impossible now that she was doomed for the rest of her Maker given life to be a remnant of Zathrian's improperly dispelled curse. Human men hadn't found her alluring because of her tattoos because of her height, her powerful aura. In fact they found her rather daunting and often strayed away from her when she visited Denerim while others were enthralled by her otherwise exotic, unique appearance and would blatantly try to court her in front of an audience. Needless to say, Ammon was never interested. She refused to take on a werewolf mate let alone that of a measly human. The moment she had settled, wading about in the waist deep pool, she heard a voice. A deep, commanding voice, that of someone she now called more then just an acquaintance: Jericho. A soft sound of approval fell from the grave of her vulpine lips, left garbled by the water's being. She remembered Kale chiding her for that ... those grunts. "They're impolite, and worst of all, unladylike," she recalled him preaching, "A warrior you may be, but a woman just as much." She would try to explain to him that she never tried to adopt the guise of a man, to take on his role or his mannerisms, they were simply rude aspects she had picked up during her transition from human to werewolf. She pressed her lips in a hard line, audibly wincing at the unwelcoming sensation of her tumid muscles pulsing under her probing fingertips. She trembled, almost, waiting for the agony to wane and the heat do its job to unwind the sinew. She merely wanted relieve, for the pain to be siphoned by the water ... and now that Jericho was here, maybe a talk as well.

Despite the thick steam, Jericho was able to find Ammon in minutes he waded over, the water ending around his chest, and she could clearly see more scars there, most of them burn marks and long gashes. Crude and still somewhat pink, the scars were the productive of heavy mistreatment and it was obvious by the look of them that they had not healed properly either. They did add to his sculpted frame and made him appear much more ominous and foreboding. He had a broad chest with arms made for killing water glittered across his skin and dampened his hair into loose ringlets."Ammon," he greeted with a tilt of his head. "How are you, my lady? I have not seen much of you today." He had spent the morning going over war tactics with some of the weres, but, since Kale's death, he'd noticed much difference in the dealings of the pack. They moved along slower and their eyes kept moving skyward. Having only known the elder for a short time compared to everyone else, he could only imagine the pain that struck their hearts.

Still, she was baffled at his attempts to fraternize with her. She showed little to no interest in the man and yet, he went out of his way just to say "hello". It was not as if she disliked him or had purposely intended to mistreat him, these were just the mannerisms she practices both before and after becoming a werewolf. "I was in Orlais attending a meeting." A paused for a moment. Meeting. It sounded so formal, when in fact, it was just a throng of intelligible werewolves all holed up in an old inn discussing the lack of females and therefore, lack of sex. "They were discussing how to make the changing easier for females since they're typically not as resilient as males but, as I seen it, it was a waste of time it's probably impossible." The werewolves were still in their green stages they didn't thrive past the province of Orlais as it had only been six months since Zathrian's curse manifested into a hereditary chain. Ammon was pleased to be around and hopefully a key product in the blooming of werewolf society. She wished for them to be a morally and physically attached race as did they werewolves did not want equality with humans and elves, rather, they wanted to be known and respected. "I'm just a little tired, Jericho. Yourself?"
dragon age - { dream x ace }
"Tired is one way of putting it." Jericho waded through the water closer to her. It had been some time since he'd been able to truly relax and he enjoyed the warmth of the water wrapping around him like a mother's soft caress. "You say the females are having a hard time with the change? I myself have not had much privilege in speaking to many of the other gender in fact, you're the second female were I've come across. I would very much like to speak with these others perhaps I could be of some help?" It was his duty, after all, to care for all of the weres, whether they be in Denerim or Orlais. They were all one people as far as he was concerned and he would look after all of them as best he could.As he floated amidst the water, he wondered absently why it seemed business always found its way into his discussions with Ammon. It would be nice to have a conversation for the sake of having one, rather than constantly making plans or discussing current problems they faced. The past weeks had been long and tiring yes, tired was a very good way of putting it. But he would not stop until their people were safe. Until his work was complete, he would not rest. That said, he still felt a yearning to relate to someone on a different level, a personal one that could maybe be a friendship. The idea that he could have a close friend brought a smile to his face he'd had such a thing, once upon a time. Kale had probably been the second closest to that. Jericho's smile dissipated at the thought of Kale and he absently made ringlets in the water with his hand, trying to distract himself.
dragon age - { dream x ace }
Like Jericho, Ammon strove for casualty as well. She was tired of the business chat, of the discussion concerning Denerim and their race. "I appreciate your concern but what needed to be said has already been said. It's unfortunate that most of the men were more concerned about sex then about actual reproduction." From time to time, Ammon could understand their standpoint. She hadn't been intimate with a man in quite some time. Every so often especially during the full moon she'd be just as hormonal as any other werewolf but wouldn't dare indulge. She took note of the lament on the man's face, and at the instant, she bowed her head in reprieve, showing him her eyes as they had softened. She outstretched a hand and placed it on the man's hard shoulder, giving it a reassuring stroke. "Listen ... Jericho. I realize that you may have not known Kale a long time but still, you developed a relationship with him ... and having it so suddenly severed is painful." She believed maybe this was a good instance to practice casualty rather then constant bickering. "I'm aware that it's late but, maybe you'd be willing to have a drink?"

"Most men do seem more concerned with... such trivial things. Growth of our species should, you would think, take priority over the state of their loins," Jericho said with tart amusement. But it was Ammon's gentle words brought a touch of a smile to his lips she was right about Kale. He had grown fond of the elderly man and his death was unsettling. It weighed heavily on his mind and he knew when he closed his eyes to sleep, Kale's face would be added amongst the rest."Now that, my dear lady, sounds like a promising idea." A drink with a friend. It had been a long time since he had been privileged to such an event and was happy to oblige. Once upon a time, he had spent his time in run down taverns with a good friend, business and pleasure mixed together. Quite a duo they had been then. Jericho often wondered how things would have been had things not gone sour their last mission together. That, however, only proved to be fruitless thinking as it only dampened his mood. Pushing any such thoughts from his mind, he dropped into the water with closed eyes, letting it surround him and engulf his body and was up within seconds.

The last time Ammon had the time to sit down and have a drink ... she couldn't quite recall. It would have been ages ago before she fell victim to the werewolf curse. She had since forgotten the sensation of a perfectly brewed hops or finely aged wine. The thought had actually enthused her, made her believe that maybe even a woman of her stature was able to relax. "It's understandable ... but it's not appropriate." She drew in the hot air permeating the room and exhaled, allowing her hands to find the soaps she had smuggled into the alcove. They were quite extravagant, erected from buttermilk and expensive Orlesian oils. She was pleased with the scent it was nostalgic and had reminded her of the time she spent an eve in a Rivaini home with two other women. They had taken her in after witnessing her single handedly subdue a fully armored soldier. That was the night she first fell in love with such products. Within mere moments her skin and hair was clean she washed the stubborn suds off with a gentle spritz of water, purging her tanned flesh of any dirt related anomalies. She was quite pleased with the outcome and enjoying entertaining the idea of sleeping peacefully that night, especially with the aid of alcohol.

"Inappropriate, yes," Jericho agreed. Swimming back, he caught glances of Ammon washing and fleetingly wondered why the men of the clan treated her simply as a warrior. She was a beautiful woman and had survived the change nicely being a warrior helped add to shapely muscles and tight skin Jericho turned away before he thoughts got carried away. Unlike the rest of the men, Jericho knew self restraint and knew how to treat a woman like both a warrior and a lady.Dunking his head in the water, he did the best he could to clean and rinse his hair. Unlike most weres, Jericho still believed in cleanliness and was pleased to see Ammon did as well. There were others, he was sure, who bathed regularly but he doubted any of them continued the habits they had formed during their human lives. Though Jericho could not remember much from those days, he had kept the routine going for years and not altered it much. With his own soaps, no where near as nice as Ammon's, he cleaned himself thoroughly while humming lightly.Once he was done, he pulled himself from the water and dressed quickly, giving his head a good shake to get most of the water out. Looking forward to the night out with Ammon, he waited for her at the edge of the cavern, giving her privacy to dress.

Never before had she felt so refreshed. Her body was purged of any sullied anomalies her skin was treated and moisturized and her face was no longer sullied her stained with dirt. Rather then change into her traditional armor which was a customized leather set she adorned much more casual clothing which consisted of a coal colored fitted tunic and a pair of sand colored leggings she drummed up from one of the other females living on the upper floors. The bottom corridors weren't as well kept as the others but they were certainly livable. Warriors and those who did not want to be disturbed were housed her. Silently, the lycan woman directed Jericho to the end of the corridor and town a tiny flight of stone stairs where her chamber was positioned. Before she hollowed it out there used to be a set of bookshelves and a questionable looking alter in it. She removed all of them including the alter and relocated it in an uninhabited chamber to the south end of the ruin. She gently popped open the door, letting it swing for an instant before she stepped in. The chamber was sizable it contained a comfortable looking cot lined with fresh linens, a hearth for cooking and other such things. A tiny beam of dark light leered in through the ceiling there was a crack, a very apparent throng of stones which had been missing and undoubtedly served as Ammon's window. She made it apparent on several occasions that she was claustrophobic and often refused to sleep in any windowless vistas. Also, reflecting on a visit to the Deep Roads when she was human was exceptionally painful. "Here." She strode over to the hearth where a long necked bottle sat, unscathed from the elements and well cared for. It was a potent ale though a smidgen balmy she believed he'd still drink it regardless.

Ammon's care for her room told Jericho of her individuality, a trait far few possessed. It was much easier to be herded than to think on one's own. Invited in, he wandered aimlessly through the small room, hands neatly clasped behind his back. Damp ringlets hung over the marred part of his face, hiding it almost entirely. He gave her an apologetic smile with a lift of his shoulders. "I've a confession to make. Alcohol and I have never quite seen eye to eye." He did not to insult Ammon the truth of the matter was, he had vowed many years ago to never touch the liquid again. A human's creation and a human's failing. "In truth, spending an evening with you sober sounds much more appealing than intoxicated."It was obvious in his open demeanor that he meant what he said. Himself not a liar, he did find certain facts unnecessary for other's ears and kept those silent time had told him this was the safest path to lead. Taking it in stride, he kept things simple. His reasons for disliking alcohol were his own. Sharing the story would only bring back unwanted feelings.

Appealing? Maybe Jericho had sneaked a swig of bourbon when she wasn't looking. Ammon thought of herself as monotonous and uninteresting while the other members of the pack believed the complete opposite. They viewed her as complex and extremely intriguing, often wondering what she would do to avoid solve a problem. "I won't pry, then," she uttered lowly while leering down at the bottle held loosely in her palm. She had dazed off for an instant, her eyes probing the smooth, lacquer sensation of the glass. Without much further waiting she removed the cork by driving a claw into the cork and prying it out with little to no effort. Much like a hungering drunk would, she pressed the rim to her mouth and let her lips molest it. The flavor hit her like a wave of potent spices. She'd undoubtedly be starry eyed after this little encounter with alcohol but at that very instant, she didn't care. War was slowly yet surely finding its way to her peoples' homestead and threatening not only their numbers, but their very way of life itself. That night she'd rest well after some "casual discussion" with her newly found companion Jericho. She began to realize he wasn't as foul was previously believed, much to her glowering chagrin of course. Ammon paused for an instant, ready to reply to his unexpected utterance only to be interrupted by an overwhelming presence. A man stood within the doorframe, peeling back the tattered ecru drape which served as a privacy barrier. His flossy green eyes scanned the room and pitted themselves directly upon Jericho. A grunt came from his mouth the tattoo consuming a hefty portion of his chiseled visage gave him that much more of an intimidating glow. "Who are you?" His voice was unwaveringly deep, like the goddess of earth herself had crafted it. It was booming, enough to even move Ammon who seemed overtly attached to her half consumed bottle of Orlesian wine. "I don't appreciate other men being inside of Ammon's quarters." The behemoth man approached Jericho, leaning down to stare the man in his eyes. The man was Asher Fern, a notorious red headed goliath with an equally as ardent temper. He promised himself to Ammon after she saved his life and had been adamant about becoming her mate ever since. He took a silent vow to serve her every whim and answer her if ever she had need to sate her "primal needs". Many other women begged to bed him both because of his apparent mirth and his genes which would produce a healthy lycan child but he refused, mentioning that Ammon was the only woman he would lay with. "Asher, Jericho. Jericho, Asher," she hummed while continuing to chip away at the wine left in the bottle. "So you're the tyrant? Why are you in Ammon's room? And you've given her alcohol? There are plenty of other women here for you to play with. I care not who you are or where you're from ... I will cut off your head and throw it to the humans as a testament to your demise."

The other man's rancid scent filled Jericho's nostrils and he all but sneezed on the man. Covering his mouth with an apologetic sheen in his eyes, Jericho muttered, "Pardon me." For some reason, one Jericho had a hard time fathoming, this man was under the impression Ammonbelongedto him. A shame really women were not possessions one could own. They were free to make their own choices and by the weeks spent with Ammon, he could confidently speculate she was not interested in the arrangement Asher was offering her. Asher obviously had no respect for women and that was something Jericho was not fond of. Men taking advantage of women. Men were not dominate over them. All were equal and all were to be treated with respect.It was apparent by his stature, and his comment, that this Asher did not play well with the other weres. Jericho was not frightened, in fact, he was slightly amused. A soft smile coiled the edges of his lips and he wondered absently what this man thought he could do. A fight would be unorthodox, but Jericho would not back down if that is what it came to. He would, however, avoid it as best he can. He felt no need to answer to any of the man's questions and accusations, only his final words."I wouldloveto see you try," Jericho said with the faintest smile. Having said it, Jericho knew this would provoke the man. Perhaps it was a fight he wanted after all.

Simply being provoked drove Asher to kill. He lunged forward and had prepared to attack Jericho when Ammon intervened. She placed a somber hand on the giant's shoulder he withdrew and stood erect, glancing down at the woman who seemed evidently charmed by the virtually empty bottle of Orlesian wine. "I'm ... I ... I apologize." He seemed rather embarrassed by his choice to dabble in his primal urges. Ammon dismissed him with a mere wave of her hand, smiling as she did so. Asher groaned. "Do you need anything? Food? Blankets? It's rather hawkish out tonight Autumn has indeed found its way." His tone was much tamer this time around. Ammon shook her head as if to kindly decline his offer. He nodded and excused himself from the chamber but not before giving Jericho a challenging leer. Before addressing the issue, Ammon placed the empty bottle gingerly on a bookless bookstand and plucked another from its perch. She couldn't kick the ardent, tangy sensation from her mind her tongue groped for more, begging her to replenish the sensations it felt. Inadvertently she was glad Jericho hadn't wanted any. More for her after all. "Please ... don't provoke him," she uttered breathlessly. "He may seem easily provoked and a slave to his temper but he's a powerful man. It's best to leave him be the last time someone upset him he tore through the ruins and made quite a mess. We were sweeping up snapped pillars for days." She then remained silent for a moment, letting the fresh liquid spritz into her mouth. "But, Jericho. This invasion ... I was told earlier by one of the werewolf criers that the humans' attacks have been growing increasingly taxing. I have reason to believe they're merely testing the waters but it's virtually impossible to tell if they'll genuinely attack or not." She turned her head to catch beams of natural light spiral down through the open portion of the ceiling which displayed the trees' canopies and the few fruits they bore. She retook her position on her cot and curled her toes while watching Jericho guilelessly. With her free hand she let it roam through her mane while her hazel eyes probed the muscular man adjacent to her. "I just want to see this all end so ... I can see the smiles of all of the people have them know that it's safe for them to expose themselves and to live simple lives."

Jericho watched the man leave with nothing short of a smile though the man still glowered. Ammon had not even said a word to the man, yet he had yielded. Interesting indeed. He wondered what it was that caused him to follow the woman so when it was clear she did not want to held down by any man. An intriguing situation, but it was none of his business. Instead of asking, he returned his gaze to Ammon, who then made her way to the cot.She changed the topic, naturally, but he went with the flow it. She was concerned for her people, something he could very well understand. Clasping his hands together in front of himself, he intertwined his fingers, saying, "It does appear the humans have been testing our fear of them they have been venturing deeper and deeper into the woods. Why, I'm not sure, but I intend to find out. I am planning to sneak into town sometime soon. Perhaps you would care to accompany me? I can teach you to mask your scent, as well as what you are, so you will appear to be human to their eyes. There, we will be able to hear of their plans and do what we can from there."It was a simple enough trick. He was positive Ammon would be able to master the skill. Jericho need only place a small bit of power into her from himself and warp it into her, from there she would be able to control it and mask her nature. Personally Jericho detested using the spell and never enjoyed his days masquerading as a human, but it was a necessary step to obtain an upper hand on the humans. If they wanted to stop the humans, they would need to know them as well as each other.

Final Fantasy 7 AftermathEvelyn had just returned from her raid on Junon. Junon was no longer a bustling city, but a wasteland for thugs, vigilantes and some unfortunate travelers. Rumors had been spreading, creating the belief that the VRF from Wutai had created a base in Junon. If they had, she found nothing. On the bright side, there was no way anyone would make a rebel base there now. She had slaughtered everyone and placed their bodies on pikes to worn people away.Evelyn jumped out of the vehicle that drove her into the base. She moved some hair out of her eyes, smearing blood across her face. She disregarded it and started for one of the doors. A small portion of troops marched past her and she barked at them to stand straighter, bend their knees more. They did as they were told and hurried out of her way. Evelyn picked up a bag over her shoulder and carried it in through that door, ignoring everyone from this point until she made it to her office.Her office was a bit run down nothing important. It was just a place she could get messy without anyone badgering her to clean it up. It was more of a closet than anything. A very large closet... ok, it was a storage closet that she raided to make her own big deal. Evelyn kicked the door open and walked in, then shut the door with her foot. She walked over to the desk and turned on the lamp, then dropped the bag.
