Paralogue 8.2.3: The Secret Between Us Girls

Featuring: Tori, Yavae, Vivianna, Claire, Kaija

[7:24 PM] Shiraho: Tori moves back to the pool everyone else is in, dragging, Claire along

[7:24 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Anyway! back to the talk, spill the beans vivi!"

[7:24 PM] Mika: "E-Ehh nonono! It was nothing!"

[7:25 PM] DiurnalKnight!: She grins

[7:25 PM] Shiraho: "Oh, what's this about"

[7:25 PM] Mika: "Nothing!"

[7:25 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Viiiviiiiiii. Come on, we'll keep the secret! On my honor as firstborn princess of the fire tribe."

[7:26 PM] Shiraho: "Wait, you're a princess?"

[7:26 PM] Mika: She thanks for the distraction as she sinks underwater.

[7:27 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Hey! No running off Vivi!"

[7:28 PM] Mika: She resurfaces. "No one ok. I was just..um making a joke."

[7:28 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Vivi, I will make you a deal."

[7:29 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "You tell us who you were going to say and we keep the secret between us girls, and in return I don't tickle you into unconsciousness and or tell any man I feel like that you said it about them."

[7:30 PM] Shiraho: Tori felt ignored but didn't care much because as far as she is concerned, formality toward royalty is only necessary in formal situations

[7:30 PM] Mika: Her eyes widen before she swiftly moves towards the other side and the other girls.

[7:30 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire listened silently, more concerned about the manakete that just left

[7:31 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Tori, give me a minute. I will answer once Vivi answers me."

[7:31 PM] Mika: "I said no on!" She hides behind Claire.

[7:32 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Princess of the fire tribes" Claire thinks out loud to herself. "I wonder if the princess of Freyzenwald acts like she does."

[7:32 PM] Shiraho: "You could just say you won't answer" Tori smirked

[7:32 PM] Mika: "Ah that's right I won't answer!"

[7:32 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Kaija, guard the door, we are getting to the bottom of this and she's not leaving until we do."

[7:33 PM] Mika: She makes a distressed noise. "Wait...I think Drew like you Yavae, or at least wants you to like him."

[7:34 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "I don't really care that he does because he's a thief and he unnerves me."

[7:34 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Now, answer!" She grins

[7:35 PM] Mika: "Um..oh I'd marry Shimie, yep." She smiles.

[7:36 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Wow. I didn't know you liked girls like that."

[7:36 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Are these kind of discussions, common in bath houses?" Claire asks Tori

[7:36 PM] Mika: She pouts. "Oh be quiet Yavae."

[7:37 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Well, Shimie's a girl. There's no shame in it."

[7:37 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Wait..." She seems to be thinking

[7:37 PM] Shiraho: "Well I haven't been in a bathhouse with this many people before"

[7:38 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "So... You would marry someone... But am too embarrassed to tell me..." Cogs slowly turning

[7:40 PM] Mika: "Of course I would marry someone. I..I..just not right now."

[7:40 PM] Shiraho: "By the way Claire, are you anyone's betrothed?"

[7:41 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Hm..." She grins "Well, I have one thing to say, Vivi."

[7:41 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "I am flattered."

[7:41 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Eh? Where's that coming from? I-I- no. I'm not."

[7:41 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire is flustered as all hell

[7:42 PM] Mika: She laughs. "Of course." She looks at the other girl. "I was betrothed once."

[7:42 PM] Shiraho: "Hm, that's a surprise. Considering your father is influential enough to have sent you here, I would've expected you to have at least a few suitors."

[7:43 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Do you not understand what I was implying, or where you admitting to it?" She now looks confused

[7:43 PM] Mika: "I was join in on the joke Yavae."

[7:44 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "No, my father and I would rather spend our time training than dealing with such issues. Besides, my father kinda dashed all hopes of me finding any relationship when he announced at a party that anyone who wishes my hand must best him in combat."

[7:44 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Ooooh. You still will need to tell me. Tell you what, I will give you a nice juicy secret if you do."

[7:46 PM] Shiraho: Tori chuckled "I see, I'd feel bad for any poor sap who'd fall for you."

[7:46 PM] Mika: "Well alright..you..know..last night..it was so magical. Me and Shimie..and I had a thought..what if I could wed a man who raised pegauses..and..I wouldn't mind if you know....."

[7:46 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Hm? Oh, you want to marry Sula?"

[7:46 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Well, that links to my secret quite well!"

[7:47 PM] Mika: She's already sinking back into the bath.

[7:47 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Yeah, not like there were many men who wanted to marry a girl who was into combat rather than... Uh... Girly....things."

[7:48 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Firstly, my secret- Leodin is madly in love with you, Vivi. Secondly-" She turns to Claire "Those men are pathetic short-sighted weaklings"

[7:48 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Eh?"

[7:49 PM] Mika: "Eh! Leodin? No way he's gay Yavae. Don't go telling lies ok."(edited)

[7:49 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "A man who could not love a woman who loves combat is no man at all."

[7:49 PM] Shiraho: "Hey now, courtsmanship is a way of fighting in peacetime."(edited)

[7:49 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Also, Vivi, I do not lie, he told me himself."

[7:49 PM] Mika: "I really don't believe you. He, like myself totally was crushing on Elwyn."

[7:50 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Well yes, after all Elwyn is a woman"

[7:50 PM] Mika: "Elwyn is a man, a very hot one!.."

[7:50 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "No, he's not a man"

[7:51 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "If that's a man I might as well be one too."

[7:51 PM] Mika: "But anyway Leodins gay, that's why he was comforting me, to help get through Elwyn rejection together.

[7:51 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Well to be honest, a lot of fellows were all trying for my hand, many of them a decent fighter themselves, but they all had requested that if I marry them, I give up my knightly ways and pursue a more domestic hobby"

[7:51 PM] Mika: "Still he's so nice, I'm sure he'll find a good man."

[7:52 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Nope, he thinks you are shockingly beautiful and was jealous that you slept in my bed instead of his."

[7:52 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Also, Claire, those men were pathetic then."

[7:52 PM] Mika: She laughs. "That doesn't sound like him at all."

[7:52 PM] Shiraho: "I've been called shortsighted before but those men were fools."

[7:53 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire chuckles "are all men pathetic to you Yavae?"

[7:53 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Well, it's true Vivi. Given his lack of bravery it's no surprise that you think he wants a strong man to protect him though."

[7:53 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "And Claire, not all, just most"

[7:53 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I see, my mistake." Claire laughs

[7:53 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "My father is not pathetic, for example"

[7:54 PM] Mika: She giggles. "He might have a crush on Sula too, it's kinda funny we have the same taste in men."

[7:54 PM] Mika: "............................"

[7:55 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Well, he likes you too, whether you believe it or not."

[7:55 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Hm... You should find a man like my father. Strong, blunt, honest."

[7:56 PM] Mika: She just smiles. Maybe she could help Leodin with Sula, then when they are wed, she could come see the baby pegauses. Ah they did look cute together.

[7:59 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "You really can be delusional sometimes."

[7:59 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "What about you Tori? Were you ever romantically involved with someone?"

[8:01 PM] Shiraho: "Well, not anyone since coming to Amaterasu, but there was this boy back in..."

[8:01 PM] Shiraho: "Actually, it's part of the past I try not to talk about, sorry"

[8:01 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Oh, no I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked."

[8:02 PM] Mika: "Can I? I just can't see how Leodin is in love with me. He doesn't act different."

[8:02 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "That's because he's a coward. What do you keep convincing yourself men dislike about you?"

[8:02 PM] Shiraho: "No it's fine. Maybe one day I'll be comfortable talking to people about it. For now though, I prefer to try and forget about it"

[8:03 PM] Mika: "Because Yavae every man I have ever liked has rejected me or left for another person. At 23 it's sadden."

[8:04 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "That's nothing but bad luck, find the right one. There's nothing wrong with you."

[8:06 PM] Mika: "It a curse. The maids use to whisper I was born on a bad moon and growing up..I think maybe they were right." She pulls herself out to cool off some, finally washing her hair.

[8:06 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Ha! They're idiots. We control our own fates."

[8:06 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Yeah, your life shouldn't be determined by the quality of the moon"

[8:08 PM] Mika: She laughs. "It shouldn't." She blows some bubbles. "But I do believe I'm going to find the one here."

[8:08 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Excellent! I was worried I was going to have to convince you there was nothing wrong with you more."

[8:09 PM] Mika: "There is nothing wrong with me. I'm just a wallflower Yavae." The bubbles drifts into front of the girls faces.

[8:10 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "That's not wrong."

[8:10 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Besides, I don't think you are a wallflower. Wallflowers do not sing to entertain everyone."

[8:11 PM] Shiraho: "If fate was so easily decided, I wouldn't be here now."

[8:12 PM] Mika: She rolls on her back, letting her hair in the water. "What do you mean?"

[8:12 PM] Shiraho: "Just something about my past. I wasn't born in the life I live now."

[8:13 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Kaija, you can come back now by the way."

[8:13 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Are you sure you want to share? We won't force you if it's too painful."

[8:15 PM] Shiraho: "That's all I wanted to say about it. Again, it's something I still prefer to forget, but I won't have a friend suffer from the idea of fate deciding their life when mine turned for the better despite the possibility of such a thing"

[8:17 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "So, don't be so down on yourself, Vivi."

[8:17 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "You fail every battle you do not fight, after all."

[8:20 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Understood, Vivi?"

[8:20 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I'm sure there's a man, or woman out there that will be the one you marry."

[8:22 PM] Willis Wilstar: "Yeah. Totally"

[8:23 PM] Mika: "Maybe.." She sits up, spraying hot water on the all as she whips her hair back.

[8:24 PM] DiurnalKnight!: She doesn't mind, but grins and then splashes water at Vivi

[8:24 PM] Mika: She gasp before laughing and splashing her back.

[8:25 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire backs away from the splashing

[8:25 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Kaija, back me up!" She grins and continues splashing

[8:26 PM] Willis Wilstar: Kaija splashes haphazardly

[8:26 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Excellent!"

[8:26 PM] Shiraho: "Hey now" Tori joins in the splashing helping vivi out where able

[8:26 PM] Mika: She laughs. "Now it's even!"

[8:27 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "[Kaija, go around and surprise Vivi from behind, I'll take her down!]"

[8:32 PM] Willis Wilstar: "Uhh.. sure thing"

[8:32 PM] Willis Wilstar: "Uhh.. sure thing"

[8:32 PM] Willis Wilstar: She sinks into the water

[8:33 PM] DiurnalKnight!: She keeps Vivi's attention with splashes

[8:33 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "TORI! Under the water!" Claire points at Kaija

[8:34 PM] Willis Wilstar: Kaija bursts out of the water and splashes Vivi dramatically

[8:34 PM] DiurnalKnight!: She splashes at Tori and Claire to get their attention

[8:34 PM] Mika: "Ah! I've been hit!"

[8:34 PM] Shiraho: "Right!" Tori finds Kaija and tries to intercept her, splashing Yavae when able(edited)

[8:34 PM] DiurnalKnight!: [too late tori]

[8:35 PM] DiurnalKnight!: While Vivi is distracted by the splash, Yavae suddenly grabs her and picks her up while tickling her "It's all over! I have a hostage!"

[8:35 PM] Willis Wilstar: "SKRRREEEEEOOOONK"

[8:35 PM] Mika: "Hahah! S-Stop!"

[8:35 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Nope! Surrender!"

[8:36 PM] Shiraho: Tori put both hands in the air

[8:36 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire does the same

[8:37 PM] Willis Wilstar: "Victory"

[8:37 PM] Willis Wilstar: "Victory"

[8:38 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Excelent! Now, as the hostage is a Nohrian, she shall face the traditional Nohrian practice of executing the hostage!" She suddenly falls back into the water, taking Vivi with her

[8:38 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "Be careful!"

[8:39 PM] DiurnalKnight!: She is busy laughing evilly and ticking Vivi

[8:39 PM] Shiraho: Tori dives in and starts to try to rescue vivi

[8:40 PM] Mika: She reaches out as takes Tori's hand.

[8:41 PM] DiurnalKnight!: She tries to pull Tori down with them

[8:41 PM] Shiraho: Tori slips and falls onto Yavae

[8:42 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Ha! Two for one victory!" She begins trying to hold down both and tickle them "[Kaija! Get the last one!]"

[8:43 PM] Willis Wilstar: Kaija tries to get out of the way

[8:43 PM] Shiraho: "RUN"

[8:43 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "[Get her, quickly Kaija!]"

[8:43 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire puts her hand under the water and confirms that it. Is crazy hot"

[8:44 PM] Willis Wilstar: Kaija tries to tackle grab the one remaining person

[8:44 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "The last one? OHWAI-

[8:45 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Hah! Complete Fire Tribe victory!" She sits up cross-legged, holding Vivi and Tori on her lap with an arm each

[8:45 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "That was fun."

[8:46 PM] Shiraho: "Yeah, though I have to say I never thought I'd get held like this in my life"(edited)

[8:46 PM] Mika: She spits out water. "It is a little weird."

[8:46 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Why not, Tori? Never thought you would lose?"

[8:46 PM] Willis Wilstar: "Ah.. well."

[8:47 PM] Willis Wilstar: "Gotcha. I guess."

[8:48 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire rises out of the water rubbing the water off of her face

[8:48 PM] Mika: "Well I'm very clean now."

[8:48 PM] Shiraho: "Well that's one part, the other being I don't see people taller than me very often"

[8:49 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Really? But you're tiny to me, like a cute little girl."

[8:49 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I don't I've ever seen anyone as tall as you, how tall are you anyways? You're too tall to be 6ft, 7ft?"

[8:49 PM] [SPICY] bemun: She wades over

[8:50 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "7' last I checked."

[8:50 PM] Mika: Vivianna is trying to cool down as she lays spread on the stone.

[8:50 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "You're all tiny cute little girls compared to me."

[8:50 PM] DiurnalKnight!: Well, she lets Vivi go so she can go do that then

[8:50 PM] Shiraho: "I don't know how tall your people usually are, but most people I've met are shorter than me"

[8:51 PM] DiurnalKnight!: She shrugs "I'm not most people. Say, Kaija, want to sit on my lap so you don't fall below the surface and almost drown again, or are you alright?"

[8:51 PM] Willis Wilstar: "Yes. Lap please."

[8:52 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Get over here then." She pats the leg not currently being sat on by Tori

[8:52 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Or Claire can if you don't want to get off her back"

[8:52 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire moves closer so Kaija can climb ober

[8:53 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I'm fine, thank you"

[8:53 PM] Willis Wilstar: She lets go and sits on Yavae's lap

[8:54 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "So, how long are we going to stay here?"

[8:54 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I dunno, is there anything else girls can talk about in a bath?"

[8:55 PM] Mika: "I need to leave very soon because I'm over heating."

[8:55 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "I see. Kaija and I are used to the heat. Is it uncomfortable to the rest of you?"

[8:55 PM] Shiraho: "Ooh yeah, I should leave before I start feeling too dizzy"

[8:56 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "I'm ... Fine, weird, huh. But I should head out soon, I don't know if staying too long is healthy for me."

[8:56 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Alright then you two, it was nice to meet- and beat- you." She grins and gives another triumphant laugh before letting Tori go finally

[8:57 PM] Shiraho: Tori stood up and shook her head to try and cool down even a little bit.

[8:57 PM] Mika: She sits up. "At least I'll have some cold pudding waiting for me."

[8:57 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "So Kaija, shall we head home?"

[8:58 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Wait, pudding?" She snaps to attention like a dog

[8:58 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire raises her hand out of the water. " can anyone give me a hand?"

[8:58 PM] DiurnalKnight!: She pulls claire up

[8:58 PM] Mika: "Yes, I made some vinella pudding."

[8:59 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Can we have some..?"

[8:59 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire dangles off the ground before landing safely

[9:00 PM] Mika: "Sure."

[9:01 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Excellent!"

[9:01 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Kaija, we are headed home and we will eat pudding!" She stands up, picking the tiny girl up

[9:01 PM] Shiraho: "Any you can spare for me? Your cooking was great last time I tried it"

[9:02 PM] Willis Wilstar: "That sounds good to me"

[9:02 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "If You don't mind, I would also like to try some..."

[9:02 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Hm... Are we having another sleepover?"

[9:02 PM] Shiraho: "If we are, I'd invite you to my place"

[9:04 PM] Mika: "Another sleep over..well sure, I mean it's nice having friends over."

[9:05 PM] DiurnalKnight!: "Great! Let's get dried off and dressed Kaija"

[9:05 PM] DiurnalKnight!: She steps out of the water and puts her down before begining to dry herself

[9:05 PM] [SPICY] bemun: "A sleepover? I should go tell Versailles I'm gonna be away."

[9:06 PM] Shiraho: Tori steps out and begins drying herself off

[9:07 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire dries herself off

[9:07 PM] DiurnalKnight!: Once she is mostly dry other than her hair, she does a large amount of wagging her hair around to result in a messy somewhat-more-dry mane of hair, then begins putting her armor on

[9:08 PM] Mika: Vivianna wraps her hair up in a long towel as well as pull on a very towel like dress.

[9:08 PM] Shiraho: Tori put her clothes on but decided to carry the armor she brought with her to help cool off faster

[9:09 PM] [SPICY] bemun: Claire puts on her clothes, wincing a bit as it covers the bruise, but does it normally for the most part
