RE: pissed planting - Wessex - 09-23-2019 Wessex Theskyra, The Wraith, Queen of Caido, Protector of baby Ascended, and mostly devoted to the Voice. That could be his first job - working on her title. [say] “Getting encased in a bubble for three hundred years and barely eking out a living tends to make you focus on the less superficial things like, can she hunt and can she spend a full day in the fields kind of thing. Couple that with not having a ruler in at least that long and… yeah, I’d say appearances aren’t the most important thing.”[/say] And hey, she can’t argue with his reasoning. Sticking out her hand to make a deal, [say] “Stick with me and you may just survive LongNight. If you don’t have a place to live yet, go to Theskyra House and tell the housekeeper I’ve given you a room upstairs. She’ll have to board up the windows, but you’ll be all set.”[/say] Don't ever let anyone say Wessex Theskyra doesn't take care of her own. RE: pissed planting - Amun - 09-23-2019 But first, Wessex needed to think about how she came across a little more. [say]”Sounds good to me. But needs some work on the looks department. For one, don’t shake hands. I’m not your equal, I’m your flunkey.”[/say] Still, he gave her an easy smile and grasped her hand, though he slightly insolently bowed over it. RE: pissed planting - Wessex - 09-26-2019 The Wraith is about to get real tired of Outlander men telling her how she should conform to their ideas of what a ruler should and should not be. Maybe Amun will appreciate a more egalitarian society, even one where they’re all dirt poor and magic rich and money doesn’t even exist yet. [say] “Oh, There’s a king, too.”[/say] she slips in. [say] “Been rather ill and out of the picture lately, but when he’s in full health, he fulfills the whole ‘looking up to’ part of the job.”[/say] Wessex is bad cop. Ronin is good cop. It’s not always a great feeling, but it works and she had volunteered to play that roll from the beginning. As Amun bows ever so slightly over her hand, she goes to smack him upside the head. Not hard, exactly, just enough to give him a little shock.[say] “Then stop telling me how to act, flunkie.”[/say] RE: pissed planting - Amun - 09-28-2019 When RE: pissed planting - Wessex - 10-03-2019 Perhaps there's hope for both of them in one way or another. Amun would find the Queen an often demanding mistress, should he have the balls to stick it out. Wessex snorts again.[say] “Other than giving out free orgasm bites for all, without some heroic event, it's going to be hard to change people's mind. We're a self-righteous bunch."[/say] Stubborn, indignant, prideful, and many of them (including herself) are a thousand percent convinced their perspectives are the correct ones. Personal growth is slow here, unless it's forced by a God's hand or supernatural event. [Say] "Many of the Outlanders came from the King's world and because he died while fighting a demon and is a God's favorite, he can do no wrong."[/say] Her eyes roll.[say] "I have a bad past with my people. And on top of that, most think we don't even need Kings and Queens."[/say] Even Wessex thinks that now and then, when the job gets tough and she wants to throw in the towel. So support from the Naturala is spotty at best, though she has a hunch they'd rather have a fellow as half the ruling pair than just the Outlanders. So she tries to pick her battles, but as they come faster and faster, the Wraith finds herself fighting more and more.[say] "So feel free to take the lead on spreading the good word of Wessex,"[/say] she says with more than a little jest in her voice. But like, really. Go for it. Stuffy and boring as she is, she's her ass off RE: pissed planting - Amun - 10-03-2019 Well, RE: pissed planting - Wessex - 10-06-2019 For a brief, brief moment, despite her lack of attraction to Amun and general aversion to intimacy, Wessex does consider biting him. In the end she is as predictable as one might assume and doesn't, because that isn't who she is. At least, not in this part of Caido, where she has responsibilities and whatnot. The Queen was definitely more relaxed when Edy was around. But no one needs to know that. A small smile.[say] "No specific assignment right now. Just… be around. Be a positive influence, whatever that means. Talk me up if LongNight or something comes up. Easy."[/say] A sly shrug. Surely the trading, winking man can handle something like that? There's a little bit of embarrassment at needing - or rather, using - someone else like this, because she shouldn't need to. But here they are, so… why not? Why not take advantage of everything she can? RE: pissed planting - Amun - 10-06-2019 Even if she didn’t provide free orgasms to all, the potter knew he could probably get some on his own. Still, he was pleased with how this conversation had gone. Regardless of what |
