Cha0s Gaming - Gale and Jade

EasyThreads added Solidus to the group. 08/29/2024 01:35

*As the heavy wooden doors swing open, a familiar face emerges: Araavos, his presence radiating warmth and anticipation. Beside him stands Jade, her eyes sparkling with curiosity as she takes in the transformed dining room.*

Welcome back, Araavos, and a warm welcome to you, Jade. It is a pleasure to have you both in my humble abode this evening. *I offer a gracious bow, my eyes twinkling with a knowing smile.* *The ambiance has shifted, embracing a rustic and cozy charm. The air is filled with the comforting scent of woodsmoke and freshly baked bread, while soft candlelight casts a warm glow on exposed brick walls and rough-hewn wooden beams. A crackling fireplace adds to the intimate atmosphere, its flames dancing merrily in the hearth.*

01:38

I understand you have a fondness for the rustic and cozy, Jade. Tonight, we shall embark on a culinary journey that evokes the warmth and comfort of home, a feast that nourishes both body and soul. *I gesture towards a secluded corner table, where a plush fur throw and soft cushions beckon invitingly.*

01:39

Please, allow me to escort you to your haven for the evening. The adventure awaits.

*gestues with a slight bow for her to go first so he can follow behind*

Oh my.. This is Amazing.. *She Took in the Atmosphere and breathed in the Inviting scent. before turning back to Araavos and smiled before heading over to their Space and taking a seat*

*taking a seat next to her* Was this what you had in mind?

Yes. And a little more at the same time. It's Perfect.. *She kind of caressed the seat a little* So... Who is He?

This here is Alexander. The finest chef to ever grace the cosmos.

You flatter me, surely.

No no, It's true, I never lie...

Well I am humbled... Shall I get you started with a drink?

This is a special evening.

You mean?

Yes..

I understand... I'll have it chilled for you. It shall be out soon.

Thank you Alexander.

My pleasure sir. *I take my leave to prepare his request*

What a Gentleman. Long time friend of yours too i assume? *She smiled. Though she was sitting a little rigid. kind of tense. but still looking around at the Homey Decor and watching the Fire in the Fireplace.*

He is indeed.

*comes back with Araavos's special reserve, pouring them both a glass before setting the bottle down in a bucket of ice* Enjoy. Your food will be out shortly.

Thank you. *She said as he placed their glasses down. looking at it for a moment and kind of twirling her glass a little. Mesmerized by it's appearance.* This looks good. what is it? A special Wine? (edited)

It is. Only one bottle ever exists at any given time.

Really?? *She Returned her Gaze to him. rather intrigued now*

Really.

01:54

Which means, not even I, if split, could enjoy it twice in the same day.

And you're Sharing it with someone like me? *She half joked. a little smirk on her lips as she lifted the bottle to take in the pleasant Aroma of the drink*

Not only am I sharing it with just you, I am not sharing myself with anyone else. I am here, and only here. I'm all yours... nobody else's You're special, it's a special occasion, Tonight is your night... *raises his glass* enjoy it.... To you...

*She Raised her glass as well, and very gently Clinked it with his. before Taking a sip*

01:59

Oh.. My that is.. Quite literally Divine. *She said. setting her glass down. wanting to savor it* Thank you.

*comes out with their first course, quietly setting it down, not doing his usual spiel, as this is a bit more intimate, and they're getting to know each other, not just coming here for a nice dinner, quietly leaving*

You're welcome. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

*As she started to relax a bit. she leaned forward a little and rested her elbows on the table. and took a bite of the first dish* Mm!

You can see why I keep him around huh? *he teases*

Very much so. And i thought Sepher's food was good.. then again. i haven't seen everything she can do either..

Actually, I happen to hear she made you soup. And I hear it was off menu... Impressive no less, usually when she says she's done cooking, she's done.

Really?..

Really.

Oh dear... if i had known i would have just picked something she already had prepared.. she didn't have to do all of that for me. Not that i don't appreciate it. but.. still...

If she did it, it's because she wanted to. Besides, she was the one that offered it to you, probably because she could see you needed to feel special...

02:09

Because you are special.

You mean Kind of Boring and Uninteresting? *She said. twirling her drink a little again*

More like undiscovered and enchanting... Anyone can look and see, Sheltered, Flirt, Slut, Crazy, Kinky, Boring, Tortured, Depressed, Happy, Sad, Madly in love, or Mourning. But look beyond the surface, behind the walls, the shields, the fronts, the bravery, or the surface emotions. Get to know them, let them become your whole world, and you'll discover a vast universe you've never explored. Like how you move your thumb in a circular motion when you're nervous... Or swirl your drinks when you're thinking. It's the subtle things nobody notices that make you who you are.

*Stopping the drink twirling as he mentioned it and blushing* I suppose...

02:18

You're Rather observant, i see.

Only if it's worth noticing.

And you think i'm worth noticing? *she kind of teased a little. taking another sip of the drink and finishing her food*

I'm still noticing. *nods to her hand which is doing her thumb thing because she's nervous about what the answer will be*

*She smiled a bit* Well. I appreciate that. Truly.

Well thank you, but it's not about me. Tonight is about you, I'm not doing anything that you don't deserve. But, since we're done eating, how about we get out of here, the evening awaits.

That sounds Wonderful. *She said. finishing her drink and standing up*

*takes her hand and leads her to a beautiully stunning quiet lake in a deep wooded forest, the moonlight reflecting off it's surface as fireflies flutter about it's edges, crickets serenating them off in the distance*

*Taking in the Scenery. Her eyes lighting up as she looked out upon the lake.* Oh.. *Was all she could manage. a soft, Breathy Exclamation of the Calm Serenity of the Area around them*

*letting her take it in*

It's Absolutely stunning...

You haven't seen nothing yet... *takes her hand, and walks her into the water, putting his arm around her waist as they danced in the moonlit lake, a gentle breeze bringing a melody to the cricket's chirping, creating a song for them to move to. Overhead the fireflies have moved over them, like floating stars in the night as they swayed below them*

*She was taken by Surprise. A little worried about Getting her lovely new dress wet. But didn't resist. Just followed along and looked into his eyes. Focusing on Their dance. A Genuine, Happy smile on her face.* (edited)

Is this the dream you wished for? *he asks quietly, while they danced, both still fully clothed*

Yes... Somehow.. I still wonder if it's even real.. or if this is just some.. Very vivid version of that dream... *she said Softly in response. One hand placed delicately on his shoulder as they danced* (edited)

I assure you, it's real. Because even in my dreams, I never imagined you.

*She returned her focus to his face as he said that and kind of scanned his expression for a moment. Before she smiled again. And moved a little closer to kind of rest her head against his chest while continuing to dance with him.*

*moves his hands from her waist, to the small of her back and around her neck, holding her against him in a warm embrace*

*She was surprised. but Just moved her hands down and wrapped them around him as well. returning the Embrace. Closing her eyes*

*continues to dance with her, embracing her, letting her just be in the moment*

You know... This has been Much nicer than i could have ever Imagined it would be... It's... Magical...

I'm happy I was able to take you beyond your dreams... *pulls back a bit so he can gaze into her eyes* I'm having a wonderful time with you.

*She lifted her head as well to Return his Gaze and smiled softly* I'm Having a wonderful time with you too..

Come on... I have one more thing to show you.. *takes her hand and leads her to an open spot on the shores of the lake, where he has set up 2 chairs and a round pit, he lights the fire, and pushes her seat under her near the fire, and pulls out the rest of the bottle of his wind he had hidden there in an ice bucket, then pours them both a glass and sits beside her to gaze at the fire, and the scenery behind it*

*Sitting there In awe. and Smiling brightly at him. Looking like a Child that just Woke up to see a present under a christmas tree. and took a sip of the wine* It's So calm here.. This is.. Truly Amazing. and so Special...

This is nature, some trees, some water, the moon, all that is nothing. It's you... you're what makes it special.

You're the one doing all of this for me.. even though you've no True reason to. I know i haven't been the most Interactive with you in the past, and frankly... Judgemental... I feel i've done nothing to deserve this Kind of treatment from you.

You had feelings and emotions and those were and still are valid, who am I to dispute them? But hopefully, i've show you i'm not all fire and brimstone... Perhaps even shown you a few things you thought you'd never see? Regardless, you deserve to be treated as special as you are. All i'm doing is helping you see, what you're too afraid to. The things you hide, even from yourself. Your own happiness.

*Her eyes began to water a little and She tried to hide it by turning away from him. taking a deep breath to regain her composure* Yeah.. And i.. Truly do Appreciate it.. not only this but.. Also everything you've done for Gale and i... Like Raising Quinn.. *She paused for a moment as she realized* Heh.. I'm sorry. i probably shouldn't be talking about Gale right now...

He doesn't bother me. Speak your heart.So long as it's the truth. *wiping her tears* Perhaps even the reason for those... Just be honest, as long as you're doing that, it's all that matters.

*She Smiled a bit and and Took another sip of her wine. but didn't remove her hand from it after. just kind of twirled it a little again as Her gaze Shifted from The lake to the Fire. the Light Reflecting in her eyes.*

Your eyes really capture the moonlight, I can see myself drifting helplessly within their depths.

*That made her face Flush a little and she kind of moved a strand of hair from her face awkwardly.* O-oh.. Thank you... Yours are.. *She turned to look into his as well.* Yours are... Fascinating..

Stories untold my dear, each moment a new chapter...

*She Smiled warmly. and took another drink of her wine. then realized, sort of anyway..* How much Have i drank tonight?.. *She giggled a little, mostly at her own forgetfulness and confusion*

03:28

Probably a bit too much By now..

Not enough to be stupid, but enough to worry less I hope.

Ehhh don't know about that.. well maybe.. Hopefully.. Maybe it'll Be anough to Erase Any Semblance of who i am.. I mean i came to your Resort for a Reason after all... To Change who i am.. Because Maybe if i become a bit more like.. Well. They are.. Gale won't have to worry so much.. Maybe he'll Love me more.. Maybe.. Just maybe He'll... Be as Happy with me, as he is with them... Cause sometimes it.. just doesn't feel like he is... Who knows? Maybe he'll find me a bit more Desirable too...

03:34

And he won't see me as some.. Burden he has to walk on eggshells around for their sake...

03:35

Or mine...

*pulls her out of her chair, hugs her tightly, kowing the next move is going to be a cry* Oh Jade.. No... You are enough, you deserve love for exactly who you are. You shouldn't have to change, everything about yourself to be love. I'm sure he loves you regardless. And who wouldn't, you're an amazing woman, a caring mother, a fun person. What's not to love about that. *cups her face, wiping her tears* If you take nothing home with you after your time here, take this. You are deserving of love, you are special, you are an amazing person. And if you ever feel like you aren't you come to me, and we'll go dancing, or sit by a fire, or just get something to eat and talk. I'm here for you, whatever you need, anytime you need it. As long as I am able, I will pull you from your own darkness, and remind you of who you are. Even if you forget yourself.

*She couldn't hold the tears anymore. and she let them flow. Softly beginning to cry. Looking in his eyes as he spoke. Holding his hand against her Cheek with her own Gently.* T-Thank you.. I-i Just feel... Like the only thing Truly wrong with me is that.. I care too much... I just.. I just want Gale to Be Happy.. as Happy as he made me.. before all of this... *She said. Soft sobs escaping her as she hugged him tightly. Though the Occasional Hiccup inevitably broke through a little*

Wait here.... I need to go get something.. *fades out*

*Sitting back in the chair wiping her face and calming down*

A figure appears through the evening mist, walking up to her

Jade?

*Her head Jolted up a little at the sound of his voice. a look of Pure Shock, and Confusion on her face* G-Gale?... Is.. That you?... Really you?... Or am i.. So intoxicated i'm Hallucinating... *She rubbed her temple a little*

EasyThreads changed the channel name: Gale and Jade 08/29/2024 04:02

It's me.... *kneeling down in front of her* Are you alright? I heard you were crying...

Y-yeah.. I'm alright.. Just.. A few too many drinks and a lot of complicated emotions.. W-what are you doing here?... And.. where did Araavos go...

I don't know, he just dropped me off here and said something about you needing me. What's wrong honey?

*She tried to wipe off her Already Smudged Mascara to no avail and Started shaking her leg a little. Having a hard time meeting his Gaze* It's.. It's just.. i... *She sighed and leaned over. covering her face in her hands.* I don't.. Know what to Do Gale... I don't know how to feel about this.. and what's worse is... I don't feel like i can.. express what i'm feeling to you without.. Upsetting you. being afraid of what you'll say. or think... Because i've disappointed you over, and over, and over during all of this.. Trying so hard.. to find ways to adjust to this life that's so different than my own..

But that's why you came here isn't it? To learn? I'm not disappointed in you, Honestly i'm excited for it. Remember, why we're doing it, it's to make everyone happy, just being able to be together, without worry or care. I want you to be happy, I want us all to be happy, tegether.

That's what i want Too Gale but... I.. Didn't come here.. So much to learn.. as i did to Change... But i wonder... If even this won't be enough for that... I just.. i Came here.. hoping maybe i can learn.. to be more like them.. rather than myself... In hopes maybe.. You'll be happier. more Content having them around me if i become one of them... Then i wouldn't feel so much like the a stick in the mud.. a Burden... So you don't have to walk on Eggshells.. And Maybe.. You'll Love me As much as you love them... Desire me more even... SEE Me..... *She said. Her eyes starting to water again* i just wish i didn't care so much... But things were.. so much Simpler.. when it was you and me... just us.. the occasional Visit from Lily.. But Even that... I feel i've intruded on your Life... Like maybe.. I'm a Puzzle piece that just.. got stuck in the wrong spot...

I do see you, and you're not a stick in the mud, you're great, but so are they, I don't want to lose them either. I'm not trying to force you to change or anything, i'm just trying to figure out how everyone can be comfortable.... that's all.

I know.. *She said. wiping her eyes again* I am too.. But I sometimes wonder... if you'd be Happier.. if we hadn't met that night..

I don't know, I can't answer that. But I can tell you i'd be miserable if I lost you... I haven't... have I?

Well.. No.... I still love you Gale... and i Still want to be your wife....

But? *he feels she's not done yet*

*She hesitates for a moment* That's all.. I do still want to be your wife Gale... and i want this to work..

04:37

I just... Guess i'll learn... not to Care as much...

Are you sure you can even do that? I mean, how was the day so far? I see he's letting you wear clothes....How'd you manage to pull that off?

Because he Saw How upset i was, And just.. wanted to make me feel better. To do something special for me. to make me feel... Special... Loved... Take me on an Actual Date.. One i Didn't have to Really Ask for.. Quality time where the only focus is on Us... On me... But... I guess i was too busy Worrying about.. You.. Oh Gods... i Need to Apologize to Araavos...

He was just trying to get in your pants, that's all...

*She crossed her arms* If that's true, then why are you here?.

I don't know, probably all part of some master plan or something.....

05:03

He practically told me if I break your heart he's gonna come swoop you up...

You know.. He's not as bad as you make him out to be.. Though. I'm sure he does horrible horrible things. Probably far worse than what he did to Quinn. But He's not.. He's not As Evil as you make him out to be.. Maybe just. Try. To Take the time to really, Understand him. Get to know him a little better... Besides... Now You two have something in Common...

I just don't trust him, he's up to something, I know it... He sees some of his wives coming to me and he's bitter about it, he's just trying to take you away from me.

He didn't even make a move on me. I was Naked, in his bedroom, when he Made this Dress for me. And not once did he make any kind of remark on my body. Nor try to touch me. he even said I could cover up if I wanted to for crying out loud... Also that suit looks Very good on you... I meant to say that sooner but.. I was kind of in shock that you showed up.

He told me to dress up nice... because you had a new..... oh shit...

*She Rolled her eyes* It's okay.. it's not a big deal... Really. It's... It's just a dress. Right?.. *She Stood up* Anyway.. So what if he tries to steal me Away from you?.. You have plenty of other girls To worry about. I should worry about them taking you from me.. but really. Maybe I'm taking you from them.. who knows... But as of this time.. it's just an innocent date. And maybe I will come see Araavos from time to time.. when you need to be with them. Seems fair enough. Don't you think? (edited)

Innocent my ass, nothing is innocent with him, he's always preaching. "I don't Lie" ask him yourself then. Find out what his motives are. As for the other girls, they aren't trying to take me from you, i'm pretty sure of that, and I wouldn't let them anyway... I love you. But that is a nice dress, And what do you mean he just, let you get dressed, and cover up, that's against his own rules isn't it? He broke his own rules for you? Why?

Because he's Not as Inconsiderate as You think, Gale...

05:31

Now.. I need to go Apologize to him.. But before I do.. *She said. stepping closer to Him and grabbing him by the neck of his shirt and pulling him into a Deep Kiss* (edited)

*waves a hand and opens a portal to his resort* Fine... go... I guess I'll see you after a few days as planned. And no, i'm not against you dating... Just... make sure it's actually what you want and not some trick.. He likes using people to get to me. I just know it...

Gale... *She Took his hands in hers* No matter what.. Just know that I do Love you.. deeply.. Now.. Go have fun and be happy with the other girls while I'm gone.. They need you now.. I'm sure I'll be okay...

I trust you, it's him I don't trust. But i'll see you in a few days... *fades out, leaving the portal for her*

*Enters through the portal*
