*enters with Jade, and lights the fire, then sits on the rug in front of it after helping Jade down first*

*Sitting On the Rug and Getting comfy. Looking at the Fire* So... Was there something you wanted to talk about?..

Nope, just here to let you get warm and cozy and listen.

Listen to.. What?... T-there's really nothing to talk about.. I don't.. think anyway.. *She said. Turning from the fire to him*

Then if there's nothing you want to talk to me about, then we can just sit and enjoy the fire... Whatever you need...

*She smiled a bit* Thank you.. Though.. I'm sure by now you're getting bored of Me.. Have you checked on any of your other girls?.

I'm always connected to them, we share a bond, I'm aware of them, I'm just not with them. And if they need me, i'll be there. But even so, doesn't mean I have to leave you to do it.

Right... I often forget you can.. Split.. How does it work for you anyway? Do you just manifest another you? Do you just appear suddenly when they need you? Is it an Actual Splitting process where you kind of Separate another you from the current you?

Well... It's sort of like creating life, only we share a consiousness.... we're not individual versions, so it's not like suicide when I dismiss them, nor am I splitting my physical body. I just call it that for simplicity sake. But it's like, I can be there, or not be there... *another taps her on the shoulder from behind* It's almost as if I was both always there, and never there, at the same time.

*She turned in surprise as The other him tapped her shoulder, and then she turned back to the him sitting with her* That's Incredible.

*the other dismisses* The only side effect to that, is the more I have to do at the same time, the more time it takes me to do them... (edited)

00:22

Like having 37 conversations at the same time, might take me a minute or two to respond to each one at the exact same moment.

00:22

But that's all.

That's interesting...

00:25

You're interesting..

So are you...

Me? *She couldn't help but Laugh a bit* What could possibly be interesting about me? I'm just a normal Human woman.

Do we need to have the trillions of possibilities yada yada yada talk again?

*She blushed a little* No. I get your point.

00:30

It's just still kind of. Odd that anyone could find a regular human girl like me interesting. I work at my father's Bakery, my first time Having sex resulted in the conception of twins, Crazily enough, and I'm Engaged to a Man who's been keeping secrets from me.

You're not just a human baker's girl who fell in love with someone who doesn't deserve you. Yeah I said it.... It's what's beyond all that, it's your personality. You're warm, shy, funny when you want to be, considerate, kind, a great mother, and a caring person. You're fun to be around, and if you want to go further, you care enough about me to dig deeper into who I am than any before you. It's not just me getting to know you, it's you taking the time to know me. And that above all else that makes you the special person you are, makes me want to spend every moment I can with you.

*She just Listened to him in silence. and watched the fire for a long Moment. before Moving a little closer to him and Placing her hand next to his.* Did i ever tell you i used to Dream of Being a Professional Journalist? I'd Often go out and study various Flora and fauna.. I still have all of my Journals and notes...

00:43

Draw pictures.. I was working on a whole book For the longest time...

I happen to know a few around here that do the same thing. Fernessa, for one, has a book signed by the best researcher and author on the subject of Flora and Fauna of the Faewilds. Perhaps they can give you some insights to help you with your research. Maybe even get you with her publisher, to get your book published, when it's finished. If you'd like, I can set up a meeting.

Gale offered me the same thing.. but I haven't really.. done much in that department. Mostly because of raising Quinton, and then when all the others started to show up. i kind of lost track.. but it also helped me realize something.

What's that?

As Much as i love to journal and discover things.. I love being a Baker more than anything.

00:52

I feel like it's just been my true Calling all along.

Well.... did you talk to your dad? About working together again? Supplying for the cafe?

00:54

Great way to advertise, if they like your pastries, they order some sweets, or cakes, or breads... Might be a good opertunity for you both. Him for the business, and you for spending more time with your dad doing what you love then.

*She smiled* I've thought about it.. i'll definitely Pay him a visit and talk to him about it whenever i go home.. Back to Ravenhold i mean..

00:55

..I wonder what the others have been up to since i've left.. if they're okay.

Why wait? You can come and go as you please now. It would be just a quick pop in and out for you now.

Oh.. Right.. um.. So, what? Do i just think about going there and i can just.. go there?

Not quite.... it's like that to come home.. but to leave, you simply walk out your front door, and think about what's on the other side of it...

00:59

Like is it a bathroom? or the front door to your bakery?

Woah.. Um.. Okay i guess i can try it. *She said. standing. heading over to the door, still not realizing she's still naked* (edited)

Jade?

*Turns back to him* Yes?

Might want to get dressed first....

*She looked down at Herself and realized She was still fully Nude and her face turned beet Red* O-oh.. R-right.. probably.. Uhm.. should.. *She said. Going to the closet and Finding Clothes that would look like typical Ravenhold Casual wear.*

Want me to come with you? Or should I just meet you at Sepher's?

*She paused mid dressing, She was just pulling up her bottoms at that moment* Would you like to come???

I'd love to meet your father.

*She finished dressing and Kind of smoothed her hair a little to look more presentable* and i'm assuming you know just how to blend in?

This form already does. Just sort of and odd variant of elf.

01:07

*puts on his sylvan armor*

Makes sense.. How should i approach Him about the Cafe though? I can't just be like "Hey dad! The god of everything wants you and i to supply the Baked goods for his Interdimensional Cafe! Sounds cool right?" *Looking him up and down a little in the Armor* Wow..

Maybe not lead with the god of everything bit? Not everyone can handle that knowledge.....

01:11

But I don't lie to people, that said, don't have to tell them everything either.

Fair enough.. Let's go then *She said. Going over and taking his hand. Looking at the door for a long moment before Gaining the courage to Open it. and Lo and behold. it leads straight into the Bakery*

*walks in beside her, but sends a message to her mind "How are you going to explain holding my hand? Aren't you with Gale?"*

Oh. Right. Well. Friends can hold hands too. *She said. Stepping through*

*She Enters her room after stumbling through the Lobby and starts Looking through her clothes to find something to wear home*

06:30

*once she Got Dressed she went to the Bathroom to Brush her hair before Looking at the door. Her vision was still a little blurred and her mind Hazy. but she was otherwise okay*

*She Decided to wait awhile. Taking a pillow off the bed and Going into the Living room. Laying it on the rug in front of the Fireplace that was still lit and Laying down on her back. her head propped on the pillow and Staring up at the ceiling for a bit. Closing her eyes. Waiting for her head to clear a bit.*

*After awhile and her head clearing a bit from listening to the Crackling of the fireplace she finally got up, and headed towards the door*

*She steps through the door and into Gale's house*

Enters her room with Araavos.

*pouring her a drink* Here you are.

*Taking it and Tossing it down the hatch. Drinking it all in one gulp.* (edited)

Alright.... so this is a multi drink conversation... got it... *pours another*

I guess you can *Hic* say that.. I just want to forget tonight.. Forget Gale...

Forget all of tonight? And what about Gale? What happened?

*Her eyes filled with tears again and she threw back another drink.* It's... A lot to explain..

I have a lot of time on my hands.

Well.. Okay... *She took a deep breath, and Started telling him about the whole ordeal. Though leaving out the part about her Secretly having feelings for Him the whole time they've been together at his resort.*

You're right... that is a lot... So he finally told you everything huh?

*Tossing back drink after drink while tears run down her face. Nodding a bit* Mhm..

You wanna maybe slow down? Wouldn't want you getting too well I don't want you acting on pure alcohol and doing or saying something you'll regret in the morning.

Can you believe the audacity of him??? I show him what I'd have looked like in the WEDDING gown I pick out. He doesn't take note of it or anything. Not one compliment. One word of affection as a last hurrah. Then I try giving the dress to Nazmir. She sets it on fire. And what is he worried about? The fact she burned a dress that could have been used for HER.. THAT I PAID FOR MYSELF MIND YOU.

Honestly no, that one shocks even me.

09:49

Wish I could have seen it though, I'm sure you looked amazing in it.

It wasn't the best dress... But it doesn't matter now... *she said. Setting the glass down and standing. Going and collapsing back down onto the Carpet in front of the fireplace. Where her same pillow from before remained*

But it does matter, that was your dress, for your day... I'm sorry you never got to use it as intended....

09:53

I'm sure you would have made a beautiful bride.

You know the worst part?.. I feel like My previous thoughts and fears about love... Were right... It does only lead to heartbreak and regret...

You have to have a heart to be heartbroken..... You cared, and that's why it hurts. You just cared about the wrong person. But a heart like that.... whoever finds it, and gets to keep it. Well it's a treasure worth searching for.

and you know.. all this time I've been avoiding letting myself get too close to you. Knowing how I truly feel about you. And how. I'm sure you felt about me. Because I was afraid of hurting him. I thought if I was the only one of his girls that he wouldn't have to share with you, that if I belonged to him and him only. He'd at least Value me more. Take me into consideration. Make me feel special. LOVE me more ... But now *Hic. Laying back on the floor pillow* I can see it was a mistake.. and Hurting you has further proven my point about love .. I'm sure I have...

*lets her take a moment to continue*

*She couldn't. Her mind was too hazy for her to continue to speak. So she just broke down crying. Rolling onto her side and hugging herself as she sobbed uncontrollably*

*puts an arm around her, just holding her letting her just cry*

*She sits up when she feels his arm around her and leans against his chest. Continuing to cry softly.* I loved him so much... How could he... Why... *She said through broken sobs*

I know...... I know...

And all This time.. you've *Hic, Sob* You've been so sweet to me. So honest, open... And I've been Lying not only to you. But myself.. About... How I feel.... (edited)

You were devoted to him. Hard to see past something like that.

I'm sorry, Araavos.. *She said. Wiping her eyes. Trying to calm down a bit. Looking up at him* But.. I-I Do love you... I have from the moment you took me on my dream date....

I love you too. But it wasn't my place to open your eyes. That you needed to do for yourself. But are you sure it's not the alcohol talking?

I'm pretty sure. *She managed to giggle a little and stood up. Trying to keep her balance doing so*

*catches her and helps her to her feet*

Bed... *Was all she could kind of say. But the point should get across.*

*bends down, lifting her up and carying her bridal style to it, laying her down in it and tucking her in*

Can you... Can you stay here tonight?.... Please?...

17:31

I don't want to be alone...

Of course... *approaches the other side of the bed* Are you sure you wouldn't like your pajamas first then?

*She shook her head* No..

17:33

I don't care about it right now...

Fair enough... *climbs into bed and settles in*

*Rolls over to face him. Looking into his eyes. Reaching out to hold his hand a little*

17:35

Thank you for... Being here... For me...

*rolls over to face her as well, taking her hand* Where else would I be but exactly where i'm needed....

*She smiled. And moved closer. Laying with her head rested on his arm by his head* You're amazing... You know that?...

So i've been told. But so are you.... I've just been trying to help you see it.

Araavos?...

hmm?

Can I... Kiss you?...

I don't see the harm in a kiss...... of course.

*She smiled softly. Moving her hand to his cheek and leaning in close to meet his lips with her own. Kissing him deeply.*

*returning the kiss, cupping the back of her head*

17:44

*stroking her cheek, and wiping her tears with his thumb as he does*

*She moved her Hand from his cheek to his shoulder and started to slowly Move up to lay on top of him. Not breaking the kiss while doing so*

*first to break the kiss* Jade... wait... you've been drinking, and you're just coming off a terrible breakup. I don't want to take advantage of that.....

*She sat up a bit and looked at him. Before she Sighed.* Yeah.. I guess you're right....

17:52

I'm.. I'm sorry..

I just want you to be sure you're doing the right thing for the right reasons... that's all.... *conjures a pill and a tea on the nightstand* Take this, and drink that... i'll stay here... just lay on your side of the bed... it will clear your mind and your heart. If after you still feel the same way, I won't stop you. But you have to be sure... that will help you see what you've hidden from yourself.

*She looked at the Pill and the tea. Then him. And slowly slid back off of him. Picking up the pill and the Tea. Before she took the pill and downed it with the tea. And say the glass back on the night stand before laying down on her back. Her hands rested on her chest*

*As the Pill and Tea started to take effect. Her mind started to Clear a little. And she began to think to herself. Thinking back to Why she Fell in love with Gale. How everything was so much better when It was just the two of them, and Their kids. Everything that occurred afterwards. Looking back and Realizing just how Much She cared about him, and always thought of him before anything, when he didn't do the same for her in return. About her first day at Araavos's. How nervous she was but how comfortable everyone, especially Araavos, Made her feel in no time. Thinking about when they first Talked in the hot tub. Just looking at him made her heart Flutter. And the more she spoke to him and got to know him the more she couldn't help but be enamored by him. The fun they shared on their dates together. Everything he's done for her for so little in return. She almost didn't want to go Back to Gale because of how much she enjoyed being here. With him. She really wants to be with him. But right now in her Drunken State of mind and with a Broken heart. She's just trying to find a distraction to numb her pain. And she realizes it now.. So after a few minutes She turned over to Araavos*

How do you feel?

I.. Feel like.. I Shouldn't be doing what I... Wanted to do.. because I realize I'm doing it for the wrong reason..

I understand....

I realized.. that I just.. wanted some way to distract myself from.. how much Pain I'm in... But I Shouldn't use you.. to do that... Not after everything... I Don't want... To hurt you...

The only way you could hurt me. Is to lie to me... or hide from me. Just be true to yourself, that's all I need. The whole you...

You know.. All the times we've been so close. Nude or not. You could have Taken advantage of me.... Like just now.. but you didn't... You stopped me because you knew that if I did this.. I might regret it.. you thought of me... if I wasn't sure before... I am now... you really do care about me... don't you... (edited)

Since the first time we met. But over the past few days, i've gotten to know you, and that feeling grew. I will always care about you. And I promise you, I will love you and care about you, even when you're not capable of doing it for yourself. If nobody else, someone has to be there..... for you... I... .will be there... for you...

*Her eyes welled up with tears and she moved over to him once again to lay up against him and bury her face in his chest* Thank you....

*embraces her* There's nothing to thank me for... you deserve to be happy.... and I want to make you happy....

As... As much as.. I want you... I.. I feel like.. I should wait.. just awhile longer... I'm.. still trying to process all of this and... Frankly... It.. still hurts... *She sniffled a bit* It hurts a lot....

18:34

I want it to... Be a special moment.. where I can only think of us... (edited)

Then we'll make it special...

*She smiled and looked up at him. Her gaze meeting his* I Love you, Araavos...

I love you too.... would you like your orb? If this is to be our last time just laying here... or would you like me to just hold you tonight?

Just... Hold me. Please..

*embraces her in his arms* Goodnight... my little Sweetroll....

Goodnight...*She said softly. Before drifting off to sleep in his embrace*
