EasyThreads added AsaniDraws to the group. 1/10/2026 7:05 PM

About 2 hours after Hua, Araavos, And after a little Convincing, Hala, Arrived at the Hot Springs (edited)

*Coming up the Hill* Are we.. *Huff* Almost there???

Just about. Just past those rocks

*Was laying back relaxing with Araavos when she spotted them coming up. Now sitting up a bit* Huh? Onyx? Yuray???

*Hearing her. He hurried up the rest of the way. Now at the water's edge. And setting Yuray down* Hey.. Uh.. Hua.. *Rubbing the back of his neck..blushing a bit since Everyone here was nude*

7:38 PM

We uh.. Came to talk to Araavos about something.. you.. got a minute?

*already stripping down and getting in. she needs to calm down*

*Blushing even more. But just sits down there by the water*

Oh come on. You look weird standing there with your clothes on. Just come sit with me?

Only cause you told me to.. *He said. Standing back up. Removing his bottoms. And going in to sit with her*

Good...Now.....Araavos we need your help....please.....

Sure whats up?

Well...About the party the other night..... I wanted to know if....if Nio got me pregnant?....You're magical, maybe you'd know....

Twins. One boy one girl.

....*shoves her head in the water and screams*

Bad news huh? Don't want them I take it?

*sits up* NO!.....YES?!.....I DON'T KNOW!

then why are you here? if you don't know what to do with the answer given?

*comes in at breakneck speeds and splashes down into one of the nearby ponds to relax for a bit after two very long trips back to back. His loincloth floating down behind him as he dislodged it mid descent* (edited)

Nio?!

*Shielding her from the splash*

*can not hear as he is currently under water from the splashdown*

....

Uhh... Give him a sec i guess?

That was Nio!!!!

Appears so.

I wonder why he's in such a hurry?

We need to talk to him anyway....

*leans his head on the rocks and closes his eyes to rest, unaware of anyone else at the moment*

*gets up. and Goes over to him. Poking his shoulder* Hey. Dude. Looks like you're kinda Chilling right now. and you probably need it. But Something Important's Come up. Yuray and I gotta talk to Ya.. Now.

eugh....... *raises his hand so one of the attendants can bring him a drink* what now?

*Not sugarcoating shit or buying any time* Yuray is Pregnant with Twins and You're the Father.

Do you have to rip off the bandages like that?!

Make it stronger yea?

8:45 PM

How do you... *looks over and sees Araavos, Hua, and Hala* Oh....

Yeah.. So.. We're trying to figure out what to do about it.. Since you're the Father. You've got a say in it. So i'll let you and her work that one out. *Going back over and nudging Yuray*

8:49 PM

You've got this baby..

....Hey. *she waves awkwardly*

*Sitting and Sinking into the water to watch quietly*

Well... what.. do you wanna do about it yea? We both knew it be possible. but ya done came up anyway. So... me tinking ya were okay wit it, otha wise. Why come yea?

8:52 PM

and it sposed ta be bout testin new relationship, were ya no interested in dat either? What was it den? *chuging that drink like it's his last* What you want Yuray...

I don't know, Nio! And that's the point of talking to you! I went in, knowing the risks, because I still wanted to see where it lead.... Even if we were to become something more, I'd have to go through your wife, and she only JUST started to like me! But if we weren't together, could you handle just being the father? Could I handle being a mother? I'm still young.... I'm scared.... I don't know what to do.... But if you didn't have a say in this, it'd be wrong.....

*Listening, Watching. Glancing at Araavos and Hala. Clearly Concerned*

You no want explore notin... and you no want dem either... *stands up* Clearly...But hey.... glad ya had fun.. *walks past his father* Do what you have to... I don care... *bolts off back to the main area*

NIO! WAIT!

Oh dear..

*after what she's said to them, and to him after, is a moment away from undoing it*

Yuray.. Maybe it's for the Best... I know.. Guilt will make you want to keep them.. But remember how you Actually feel.. If it's too soon. You don't need to go through with it.. But Even if he won't be a father to them should you decide to keep them... I'll try.. I've had a lot of kids. Never raised them so.. It'd be a first for me too but.. I'll try my best..

9:18 PM

But you need to Decide. Do you do what's best... And fix it before it's too late.. Or keep them out of Guilt?

9:18 PM

Personally... I feel like.. If you have them.. It'll just make you feel worse.. Knowing their own father probably doesn't want them either..

I don't know what I want...But everyone seems to be forcing me to figure it out here and now....

Because Here and Now is the best time... The longer you wait.. The more they'll grow.. The more attached you might become..

9:20 PM

And the less you'll think straight.

9:20 PM

*Holding her close* I know it's hard.. but.. You have to make a decision soon... While Araavos is here to help.

And what if I did keep them? Play happy family with Nio? Would you stay? Would you be happy?

You can't lie to yourself and say it wasn't just the desire for the Sex and Experience. Obviously he's hurt by it. Neither of you are Obligated to anything.. But i'm telling you this.. I'm staying.. Whatever you choose.. I'll be their father if he won't...

*heard her say "play" and decides he can't let her do that to Nio, and undoes it right then and there* I can't listen to this... clearly you just wanted to get your rocks off without thinking of what it would mean to him... I'll explain it to him later, it'll hurt, but far less than what you have planned... *stands up* Goodbye Yuray... *looks at Onyx and give him a look like "your girls some piece of work", then turns to Hua and Hala* Enjoy the springs. I need to go talk to Nio..*looks around to see if it's clear, before fading out*

*Watches him go. and Just turns to Yuray. He knows it's probably for the best. But right now she needs him. So he just pulls her in close. Holding her. letting her cry if she needs to*

WAIT! NO! I DIDN'T GET TO DECIDE!

Your actions Decided for you... It's... It's too late Rayray... *Stroking her hair gently* Just breathe...

NO! HE CAN'T DO THAT! HE CAN'T PICK FOR ME! WHAT IF I....*starts crying* WHAT IF I WANTED THEM?!

9:32 PM

WHAT IF WE CAN'T HAVE KIDS AND HE WAS OUR ONLY WAY AT A FAMILY?! WHAT NOW?!

Then that's for Future us to figure out.. When we're Ready for them...

9:34 PM

When it's not spur of the moment..

They could have been beautiful....And it's my fault....

That doesn't Matter.... And Yuray.. It's still really soon anyway.. They weren't even a them yet.. Just Eggs.

THEY COULD HAVE BEEN!

The only reason you feel a loss is cause you knew what they could have been.. But that doesn't matter if they aren't wanted.

9:39 PM

Do you really want them growing up with their real father around but not in their lives?

9:39 PM

Just take some time to cool down.. Okay?..

9:40 PM

It'll be alright..

*crosses her arms, sniffles, and looks away* I wanna drown myself in this hot spring.... *she says, though clearly not serious. just emotional*

Only if i get to drown myself too. *he teased lightly. Nuzzling her*

I'm sorry.... I'm such a mess of a woman....

9:44 PM

*holding him tight* My kids....He killed my kids....

This is going to sound bad, Rayray.. But he did you a favor... I know if i was in your shoes.. I wouldn't want them to grow up not knowing their real dad. or worse. Knowing he doesn't want them. And their mom only kept them out of Guilt.

9:47 PM

Or had a mom and Dad that don't love eachother.

I DO TOO LOVE HIM!....wait....do I?......

Really think about it.. Why'd you ever wanna get with him in the first place? Cause he's Different? Most attractive guy in Pua? Everyone else wants him..?

9:55 PM

Yuray.. You Lusted after him like everyone else...

9:56 PM

That night i hoped it wouldn't be the case... I was.. Actually kind of rooting for you to get more than what you originally. OBVIOUSLY wanted.. No offense..

9:56 PM

But... We all see there was never anything more there...

9:56 PM

You fucked up.. We all do... But the Question now is.. what are you going to do to make up for it..

9:56 PM

I'd be pretty pissed in his place too..

*Just letting them talk. Still there with Hala. Wondering if Araavos and Nio are Okay*

*uncomfortable and silent, "if this gets to the elders"......*

Come on... We should go home.. *he said. Sighing. Taking her hand and walking with her back to Pua Hala*

No....I can't....If anyone knew what I did.....

You Accept Whatever Punishment comes your Way Yuray... But i'll be there for you no matter what...

10:02 PM

But you can't hide from it..

Sure I can. Just skip the trial and exhile myself!

*Chuckles* No.. You have to Come Clean, Yuray... But not tonight..

10:03 PM

We can speak to the Council in the morning... Okay?..

Ohhhhh.....FINE!!!!! *pouts*

That's my Girl... *kisses her cheek*

*smiles a little* Thanks....but....how can you stay knowing I'm.....shallow....'

Cause i Believe there's Still room to Grow, Improve. Learn from your mistakes...

10:10 PM

I don't Condone any of your actions, Yuray.. But I Still love you...

10:10 PM

I Just hope you can figure this out.

10:10 PM

And make it up to Nio.

How do I make that up, Onyx?....I don't think it's possible....

Even if you Don't... It'll be alright.. Just... Be better.. Okay?...

10:13 PM

But this makes me wonder... Admittedly... Are you only with me because i'm also "Shiny and Different"?

10:14 PM

Although.. Certainly not nearly as popular with the women.

What? No! I'm with you because you tried to be my friend despite the messy person I am.....You see my flaws and look past it.....

Yeah well... I can't look past This one, Yuray... But I can hope you'll do better. Or at least that you've learned a valuable lesson.

.....are you leaving me?

No.... Because what you did wasn't to me.. I'm not the one Directly Affected by it.

*Lookng at Hala* Do you... Want to stay here and see if Araavos comes back? or.. Just.. Stay in General?.. Or go home?... I'm sure someone else could handle Dinner Yea?

Okay...Good....I love you....*as theyre leaving* (edited)

Honestly.... I don't know eh.

*Rests her head against his Shoulder.*

*now at the showers, and instantly gets undressed and hosed off before making her way to the hot spring*

*heads back to Hua and Hala* I'm back, Twyla wanted to come.

10:42 PM

I filled her in.

*settling into the water* I heard what she did....

Oh good.. It's an awful Situation.. How is Nio?

10:43 PM

did he say anything to you?..

Pissed, hurt, and headed to Lyra. And no, not much.

My sweet Boy.. I hope he'll be okay..

Me too.... I never should have let Yuray have him that night.... I really thought there was more to her than shallow views....

I'm sure we all had hoped for that.. But.. We'll now have to leave it to the Council.

Surprised she's even still kicking.... Knowing you, you would have slapped her silly already.....

It was Tempting.. very tempting.. but they're adults that needed to figure it out on their own.

10:47 PM

That.. And it's the hot springs.. things are supposed to remain civil here.

True, True.... Besides, even I know violence will just make the situation worse....But GOSH do I want to wring her neck for this!

Well you came here to calm yourself right?.. give that a try first.

10:50 PM

*Smiling. Trying to lighten the mood by teasing her a little*

*chuckles softly* Yeah... I'm sorry....You know I usually don't let things bother me too much....But this?....*sighs as she sinks into the water. relaxing*

You're his wife and the soon to be Mother of his children. Of course you have every right for this to bother you.. but not here love.

Yeah, probably not the best place... *relaxing into the water*

We did come here to relax yea?

*Nods* Oh.. And Hala? Araavos? There's something I'd like to ask you.

*quietly enjoying the warm water*

Alright? What is it?

*Takes both of their hands in hers* I.. I was thinking.. Maybe Hala And I could spend the night together tonight?.. If you'd both be okay with it.. Just.. Kind of.. Be ourselves. Maybe.. Be intimate again without the eyes of the whole village on us.. A more personal setting.. And. Maybe learn more about eachother in other ways too. But that's only if you're both Okay with the Idea...

Sure, if that's what you want. I guess I can dissapear for a night.

Well.. You don't have to Disappear.. I know you and Twyla also wanted to explore your relationship. Why don't you two go out and enjoy time together too?.

11:05 PM

If she wouldn't mind that is.

11:06 PM

*Now turning to Hala* So.. Would.. You Like that?.. It's alright if you're not feeling ready for that...

11:06 PM

We can still take things slow yea?

I uhm....I mean if he wants....

I so no Harm in a nice relaxing date *She chuckles. Giving both Hala and Araavos a kiss on the cheek*

You wanna stay wit me tonight?

You gonna tell her no? *looks at Twyla* I don't want you doing this if it's just because Nio isn't here and you're lonely. You do this, it's because you want to.

*Nods. Now focusing mostly on Hala while Araavos and Twyla talk* I.. I'd love to.. but only if you feel ready for me to...

11:12 PM

I.. I don't want to rush anything or for you to feel Pressured but.. I'd.. Love to see the inside of your home and spend more time outside of.. well.. the usual with you.

How dare you! *she says, not out of anger, but more shock and hurt. she takes his hand* I told you that night I wanted to explore this with you....Nio even encouraged me to do so....I want this....I want you....

11:15 PM

But....maybe you're right....and we should wait....he is still hurting and....it might hurt him more....

Then I will see you all tomorrow.. *fades out*

What the?!!?!?!?!?!?!

Oh...Yeah, I've come to know he just....does that

oo... okay den.. *snaps out of it and looks at Hua* Den yeah... it's just us tonight.

11:24 PM

Now come on... you can help me wit dinner yea?

I'd be Delighted to. *She smiled. Getting up and going to get dressed*

*falling asleep in the hot spring.....she did say she needed a nap earlier to calm a bit*

*spots her on his way out* Guess she stayin here da night.... *takes off* Coming?

Of course. *Spreading her wings and flying after him. Doing a little spin around him as she does. Giggling*

A little while later

*still asleep*

*flying in. not even bothering stripping down. just leans over the edge and shakes her lightly* ....Twyla?

*stirs awake*.....*gives her a look like "I'm gonna kill you"...*

Heyyyy.....Sleepy Owl....Can we talk?

*barely contained rage in the form of owl hoots*

I'll just have to take that as a yes. *drags her out of the water and away from the springs*
