I'm telling you, Astarion, even as a female, it's not going to happen.

You just won't admit that I was hot darling. Besides. Everyone wants this... eventually.

If that's what you believe...

What am I missing? I feel like i'm definatly missing something.

The god here won't admit that I was hot and that he totally would have hit this..

Hot yes, would I take your grating annoying personality along for the ride. No.

AHA! So you do admit I was hot.

Your female form was, yes, but still. It's not all about looks you know.

{then maybe....}

Oh please darling, you and I would never work out

Perhaps it's for the best, I'll just have to live with that....{he says in a subtle mocking tone.}

Oh don't be too upset, you have others.

{Goes back to eating}

(walks in) What are yall talking about?

(following behind Rilith) Yeah, what's going on?

(following behind Axel) Hello Everyone.

I got Araavos to admit he'd totally sleep with me in the female form

That's not what I said. I said yeah, you were hot, but your personality is grating

Same thing.

It is not the same thing.

Yes it is, I win

Would anyone miss the vampire if....... something were to happen?

What's that supposed to mean?

...

No really, what does he mean by that?

I'm sure Fernessa would. But would I? Maybe...He is rather entertaining when he's not being a self centered prick!

I'd miss him. He's nice......sometimes.

Nope.

You all are terrible.

No, you're terrible. You're a pompous dickhead who's too far up his own ass. But yes, I would miss your antics.

All I said was he's nice sometimes. He's a little rude most of the time.

What makes you and I so different Araavos?

I'm not an asshole. We both have an ego, yes. But I'm kind, generous, caring. I love, I appreciate, and I'm kind.

You're still a self centered and egotistical.

That's where you're wrong. I'm not self centered.

Definitely appreciates. Astarion couldn't do that. I gave him a portable fancy mirror and did I get a thank you?

He hugged you, didn't he?

Yeah, I guess that counts...

Whatever... I could use my charms, force people to fall, but I don't. That should at least count for something.

And I'm sure they appreciate you not being creepy. But that should just be a normal thing.

That's quite literally the bare minimum, Astarion.

Well at least I'm trying to behave, but this whole... being out in the open, broad daylight, having friends, thing is new to me, okay?

Aww....Maybe we should invite him to girls night? Just once?

No.

Come on, please?? I promise, I'll make sure he won't ruin it!

Still no. He's not even a girl!

You can make him, though!

Nope.

Pleaaaase?

You realize it's only superficial, he'd still be Astarion, right?

But he's lonely!

No! That's a time fir the girls, and the girls only....Maybe Vic is an exception, but that's just because he's gay.

pretty sure if you're counting Vic, you'd have to include Astarion. They're kinda one in the same there..

What about a guys night?

A night with you? And the rest of these insufferable fools. No thank you.

You're right. Astarion, would you fuck a man?

I have and I would, but what's that got to do with anything? Is that what you girls get up to? Go out and pick up men?

No!!!

No, we just hang out. Rilith doesn't want men there because she likes to talk shit. But I guess Araavos is the exception because she never mentions him.

Not going to talk bad about someone who doesn't deserve it.

It's mostly her hookups from the past.

Nazmir, who let you out of the altar?

I don't pray all the time! I also read and talk with Solidus. Mostly about other books

Whatever. Anyway, guess you can come. Maybe the flamboyant one counts as an honorary girl.

Yeah! Gather the girls! Lae'zel, Shadowheart, Karlach, Rilith, Nazmir, and Astarion!! (Gets up)

Wait, shouldn't we dress up first? We are not ready for a night out.

I was just teasing Araavos. I don't actually want to be a girl. And besides, even if I did, you guys literally just admitted to tearing us men down, why would I want to join you for that. Thank's but no thanks. {He heads off into town}

Actually Rilith, Axel and I have plans..

You remember what Araavos and you talked about yesterday.

So she's gonna have to sit this one out.

Plans? What Plans?

Oh, get over here. (Pulls Astarion towards her) It's just me doing that. And you're going to whine if you don't get to see what we get up to. I know you're curious. So just come on.

{Pushing you away slightly} I'm not one to turn down an opertunity for gossip, but seriously. The whole girl thing was just a gag... an impressive gag. But not one I'd actually like to repeat. Still... I was hot as shit, you gotta admit....

I'm taking you somewhere Axel. That's all you need to know for now.

(shrugs) I'd fuck you either way.

Okay! Lead the way then!

Two portals appear, as both groups seem to return at the same time.

I told you Towbury Tavern was fun!

THAT WAS AMAZING!!!

A decent girls night

It was different but that's good. Can't be super fancy all the time. It would get boring.

I agree.

I loved it

I'm glad you enjoyed yourself Axel.

Oh Gods, remember when Sebastian would run on stage, take the microphone, and meow a lot? Good times!

(laughs) Yeah, where is he now?

Probaly working at the hospital?

Elandra, it was great having you for this girls night

Aww. Thank's sweety.... And remember, anything I might have said while drinking is inadmissible.....

We know

So what did you do Axel?

WE WENT TO SEE ELOWEN GREENLEAF!!!! (still very excited)

...Who?

Who's that?

I...My favorite author....made the book about the fora of the Feywild?...(frowns a little)

Yes yes, we're all impressed.

See, this is why people don't like you.

Astarion, please, you're going to...(sees Axel tearing up) Too late

You just had to go and open your mouth didn't you.

I hope you're happy asshole

I was just.... but..... I mean....

Stop talking before I remove your tongue.

I'll let her

I won't stop her either

Make her cry again, and Cazador will look like a puppy comared to what I'll do to you. Understand?

{nods, he remembers Graz'zt's head being tossed.}

And for ... well my sake.... clean yourself up..

Well I'd nev........{looks down} you're right... {looks around} We don't have to mention this again...

Like hell, this will be the discussion of Girls Night for like months.

{Sigh's heavily}

It will be the subject of gossip for a long time

The time when the vampire shit himself like a coward

Exactly

Maybe I should keep my interests to myself from now on?...

Hey, no, he's just an asshole. Ignore him, okay?

Hard to ignore that asshole when it's still leaking shit..

{tries to make a hasty but unnoticable exit}

Look at him try to squirm away like a worm.

Remember pretty boy... I never say anything I can't follow through on.

{squirts again as he takes another step towards the door}

Don't you think you all are a little harsh?...

Nope, he deserves it. He was being a dick.

I'm not being harsh. I did just give him a warning did I not. Nobody fucks with people I care about.

How do I get on that list? {Shit did I just say that out loud? Maybe they didn't hear me}

Oooooh, someone wanna join the party???

{Shit.... they did} Umm.... yeah, I mean if you guys are gonna host one... I guess I could join {trying to play it off like it isn't a big deal}

Aww, I like her! Can she join? Please??

{Come on girl pull yourself together. You don't get attached, you play and move on... }

Soooo, whatcha into? I'd love to invite you for a session!

If that's what you want. But you should ask the others.

Easy, you'll scare her off

Elandra is fun. Maybe she's more fun in bed? Who knows.

Honestly, I'm into anything. I can even.......{too much, stop talking} Nevermind But yeah, I mean if you guys need an extra or something...

Come see us tonight when everyone is going to bed.

Oh, now you gotta tell us

She has a point, honesty is the most important thing in our Harem after all.

Can we talk later? Not sure here is the best place....

Very well then....

I'd love for her to join. It'll be fun

I wouldn't mind

You guys serious? Or you fucking with me?

No, we really want you there

Seriously, girl. They're fun...

I prefer to be alone with him.

Yes, and we all accept that.

Then I shall...... wait....

Patience is key!

If patience is the key, I'd rather break the lock

Why are you always so violent?

It's the Githyanki way. Most species are soft, weak, pathetic. You want the truth, there it is. I like you people, but you use your words far more than the blade.

We're not weak...

Knock it off Lae'zel. I'll show you who's weak.

Yes..... Zhak vo'n'ash duj.

....Huh?

What's up Axel?

What she'd say?

You sure you want to know?

...Not really....

Alright then.,

Now what?

You ladies tell me what you want to do.

Is dinner being served yet?

Food is always available for those that are hungry. But Axel and I already had our dinner. But you girls go on ahead. Though, didn't you already eat at the Tavern?

Yeah, but I'm still hungry.

Maybe a snack, but I'm fine.

I'm good

Honey-Drizzled Berries

So what's on the Agenda for tonight?

Thought we were going to have a get together with Elandra?

Well yes, we can do that. When everyone is ready, but it doesn't have to be right this moment, unless everyone is ready.

Oh, then I'm not sure.

Well I'm sure you girls will think of something.

Probably

You sure you don't have any ideas?

hmm...

Do you have any plans, Araavos?

Only for later tonight. Until then, it's whatever you want to do I suppose.

Guess I'll go to the bathouse. Ya'll coming?

Sure!

I mean, if you both are goin, maybe...

What? It's relaxing! And maybe we can just talk there?

Sounds fun!
