: Mistletoe, Mischief and Marriage :

[Enver Marshall II]

--The following transcript was a live chat roleplay—

This RP took place on Wednesday 18th December 2013 in Aithne Asylum.

Enver: : Comes over to her with some mistletoe in hand from around the home. : Think we should take this down. Gives people crazy ideas. : Nodded. :

Keara: Why do you that think? My understanding is that Christmas not yet over is.

Enver: Well no, but something odd is going on. Got that wraith of yours talking crazy, then this adding to your family area after all her crazy talk. : He crumbled it up a little bit. :

Keara: What has Deanna now done. Good she has been. And yes. Added you I did as wanted you there I did. Right it seemed. Then get to know my family you can. Added some time ago I was to your family area. And barely agreed we had then that we dating were.

Enver: So you were always intending to add me? : Rubbed at his jaw, then nodded. : Do you and Deanna ever talk about future stuff? You know, like what you`re doing next month or what you want to do? Things like that? : Looked at her curiously. :

Keara: Yes. No. Perhaps. Thought I did at the time that respond in kind I possibly did. But only have I those that bound to my blood are there. Well…extended invitations I have. Leif added was. Trusted her I did. Karina not added has been as Lions no answer to me has given as to whether he wishes her there or not. Respect his wishes in that I shall. If unhappy you are with my decision…revoke your access I can. And of course I with my sister speak of future plans.

Enver: : He cleared his throat. : So you want to get bound then? You know I can`t get bound. I told you that already and we talked about it. : He shifted on the chair to look around. : Plus, I`m not really sure about the marriage thing. Already tried it twice. I like what we`ve got going on right now. : Grinned at her. :

Keara: Like I do too what now we have. Thought I had not on us binding since spoke of it last you did. Though dismissed idea outright then I did not. Mind I do not if eternally bound we cannot be. That creature requires like other day you saw. Magic that requires. And while done that for you I would have. That no option for us is. As for marriage in modern terms, no importance do I upon that place. If bind we did. Bind we would in traditional sense. As Ven and I bound were. Handfasting old tradition is and value for me that does hold. But…confused I am as to why we now of binding speak? *casually glances around the office*

Enver: : He tugged at his collar. : Just something I heard from someone. About binding around, under, over Nox. : He shrugged. : Not a big deal since you`ve not thought about it. Was just wondering how that idea came about is all. : He sat back on the couch, relaxing. :

Keara: Why assume you would that I of binding would be thinking when incapable you are for me to tell that love me you do, I know not. Twice in recent weeks have I you songs sent too and no reply have you me sent. Expect I do not a song as reply, but know I do not if you my emails even did read. *She shrugs and looks down at her skirt as she begins playing with the hem*

Enver: : He snorted. : What do you mean I can't tell you I love you? I've told you that I love you a few times. : He scoffed at her. : It's not like I loved you last week and don't love you today.

Keara: Laugh thusly you should not. Told me once you did. If told correct terminology is. Angry you were and shouting when first said it you did. Said it since you have not. Even when in your mind i have been, thought it you have not. Know only I do that you "crazy about me" are but crazy you call me often. So know I do not if that good or bad is. *She explains calmly, still keeping her eyes on her skirt*

Enver: : He groaned and stood up to start pacing. : I've sent you songs that say it more or less. And I buy you things to show you I'm thinking about you, which shows I love you. I'm sure I've told you it more than one time." : He was thinking really hard, trying to remember, but couldn't be certain now that she said that. :

Keara: *Looks to him as he starts pacing, her hands still on her hem* Songs sent have been. That true is. Sent songs I too have, But vocalised the words also I have. Along with them in emails to write. Afraid I am not my emotions known to be made, now that know I do what they are. Buy me things too you may but no need have I of gifts Enver.

Enver: : He frowned, stopped and looked at her. " You don't need my gifts?" : His brows knitted together for a second before he nodded and looked away. : "Yeah. I guess they aren't essential to killing things or making hocus pocus happen." : The male cleared his throat and looked back at her. : "So you don't think I love you because I haven't said the words in a while?"

Keara: Said that I did not. And there no need is for my way of life to belittle. Said the words you never have in way that heard they should be. But know I do that you me do love, as even if in anger said they once were, lying you were not. And...stayed with me you have, when walked away you could have. *Her voice lowers towards the end and she releases the hem of her skirt in favour of playing with the ring on her finger* And gifts welcome are. Just...require them for you to love I do not.

Enver: : He groaned again. : "I know that, but I like getting them for you because I love you." :Why was she questioning him about loving her? Enver thought it was pretty obvious how he felt and she even seemed to imply it, so why was she counting how many times he said it to her? He sighed. : I'm not belittling you. I'm just trying to sort out why you think I don't love you or I don't love you enough to get married to me. Maybe I've not said it a lot. Alright. But I definitely think I've shown it." : Enver nodded his head. :

Keara: *She nods and looks from the ring to him and back to the ring again* Said I never did that that what I think is. Only that say it you do not. Marriage no part in my words does play.

Enver: : He nodded his head. : "Alright. Well, I'll say it more. I'm sorry." : he shrugged not sure what else to say. : "I'm sort of an action speaks louder than words kind of guy, but if you like words more, then that's fine."

Keara: Like both I would. *she stands and moves to meet him, taking his hand, her focus on the fingers of the hand she takes in hers* Believe I do not that a choice between them made need be.

Enver: : He nodded. : "I could do that." : He looked down at her hand around his. : "Guess I didn't realize was all." : Enver looked back up at her and stopped crumpling the mistletoe in his other hand. : "I guess we can keep this stuff up for the rest of Christmas. Can't believe I fell for Deanna's ****." He muttered as he shook his head and chuckled.

Keara: Deanna? What part in this did she play? *looks up at him* And yes. Return those you should where found them you did. Know I do not why you these removed in first place.

Enver: "She said." He looked down at her then shrugged. "Doesn't matter I guess. I should go hang these back up in the hall." Enver winked at her, then started to head off, trying to avoid the topic with the desire to want to hang the mistletoe back up.

Keara: *grabs a hold of his wrist as he breaks from her and goes to leave* Matters to me it does. Know I must what said has been. If trouble between us she causes, speak with her I must of it.

Enver: "Trouble? Nah. I wouldn't say trouble." He shrugged his shoulders, looking at her from the side. "She just said something about binding and then something about Nox. Which was what I asked you about the other night is all."

Keara: Did she suggest that you with me bind? Dislikes us she does. So said that she would not. *tries to pull him back to her*

Enver: He snorted and chuckled. "Not exactly. She doesn't approve of our-uh, extra-curricular activities or the fact I called you my companion. Said we weren't that since we didn't get bound under Nox or whatever." He pulled back as she pulled at him, wondering who would get pulled to the other first.

Keara: *Attempts to pull him to her again, a faint smile on her lips as she was letting him resist* Companion strong word is. And yes, know I do that approves she does not of our physical relationship...And yes...right she is too that bound we are not. Perhaps that reason for her objection is. As thinks she does that waited we should have for so intimate to be. *releases her pull on him slightly as she considers that fact*

Enver: He scoffed. "Doubt that's it. She hopes Ven comes back and kicks my *** or kills me. Can't remember which one." He chuckled, stepped closer to her and pulled her into his arms with a chuckle.

Keara: Matter it would not if he now returned. Said goodbye to him I did. Well...wrote him goodbye I did. If wished he did for you to fight. Through me he would have to go and sure I am that I now the stronger of us two would be. *she says without hesitation* Respect my decision he would. Even if time he required for that to do.

Enver: He chuckled at her words and shook his head. "I'm sure I can take care of it, if he comes back and wants to kick my ***. Or kill me." Enver nodded his head. "I just think Deanna's used to it being just the two of you for this long now." He shrugged. "Nothing to get too worked up over." He added in, wrapping his arms around her.

Keara: "That possibly true is. Though she too learn must for my opinion to respect. Welcome she is her opinion with me to share, but accept it she must if reject it I do." She wrapped her arms about him and smiled, even though he couldn't see, as she looked down and off to the side. "Oh," she pulled back and lightly brushed his cheek with her hand. "How feel you now? Something wrong there was this morning you said."

Enver: Enver frowned, cleared his throat and nodded. "Yeah. I don't know. I think that paladin guy did something when he attacked me." He removed an arm from her and tugged at the collar of his t-shirt. "Can't explain it. Just feel off. Like I can't focus on anything." He chuckled. "Strange to say, I almost feel human again. Things I could do all night or day seem tedious. Like some of those ancient things in the catacombs, couldn't land a good blow on them tonight. Most took off running."

Keara: "Did he you harm? Saw I did no wound. Though always notice I do not. Sounds does like what to me happened did...Only different. No explanation have I yet for that either." She strokes his face. "Worries me does that say you human feel."

Enver: "He tried to get me with a sword, like the other times, but missed me. How, I'm not sure." Enver shrugged, then frowned at her. "Why does it worry you? Lots say I'm pretty human already, so I doubt there's really much difference." He chuckled and looked around. "Maybe I've just been getting worn out lately. Spending all my time with one of the city's finest women." He gave her a cheeky grin and let the arm around her drop to her butt to give it a good squeeze. "I'm sure it's fine. I'm still here, yeah?"

Keara: She laughs softly as he teasingly tries to blame her for his condition. When he gropes her butt, she playfully slaps his face. “That true is. Else do that I could not. And worry do I never for one their humanity to retain. Myth is that we ourselves do lose in turning. Never have I such things believed. Me I still am. Kinda. Maybe now not so much.” She was lost on a tangent and the confusion showed in her eyes as she pondered what she was saying. “Different I am now, but that more to do with time in realm spent, not in act of becoming what I was then. Or…am now. But yes. Worries me does that you human feel.”

Enver: "I feel human most nights." He winked down at her. "Especially since meeting you." He brushed his lips against hers quickly. "You think it's possible that paladin guy might have done something? That there's something they can do against vampires we don’t know about? Maybe one of those ritual things? Since you had almost the same experience?" He frowned, but it seemed logical to him, that something was amiss and since it happened after the paladin attack and Enver wasn't a big fan of rituals, still, that could be the reason why.

Keara: “Plausible is that he something did. Or that ritual cast was. Though know of ritual such as that I do not. Though that nothing means, as everything I cannot know.” While she wanted to be able to give him answers, she really didn’t have any for him. She placed her hand at the back of neck, letting her fingers work through his hair as she did. “Why do I you human make to feel?” Her voice showed signs of hesitation as she asked her question. “Is that not bad?”

Enver: Enver scoffed at the question. "Depends on if feeling things is a bad thing. I'd not think so." He groped her backside again, while his other hand caressed the flesh of the inside of her lower arm before he captured her hand with his. "What's your thoughts on feeling things?" He chuckled, grinning from ear to ear in a teasing manner.

Keara: She laced her fingers through his, her other hand happy where it was as she began practically stroking his neck. “Think know you the answer to that already. Awakened you have for me feelings that new are. Even if negative some are, all positive are to me. Unless…,” the hand on his neck moved to retrieve the hand on her butt, lacing their fingers again. “feelings of the physical sort you speaking of are.” With both his hands in hers, she manoeuvred him back over to the sofa. “Sit down you should. Want I do not you out to wear. Since human you are feeling.”

Enver: "Why not both?" He asked, still grinning wide before he was maneuvered around. "Wear me out?" He scoffed again, sitting down anyways. "Pretty sure that's not possible." He winked at her, before tugging her in his lap. "Take a load off yourself. Never know when you might start feeling weak." The male wrapped his arms around her once she was in his lap. "So nothing to worry about. You feel human sometimes, I feel human sometimes. Rituals fade over time, yeah?" He shrugged, scooting her close to him, so close that if she wanted to be comfortable both legs would have to wrap around him on opposite sides.

Keara: She’d been planning to straddle his lap and get comfortable so when she was pulled down onto his lap, she had no issue getting herself comfortable. While she didn’t like sitting on sofas, she’d found she quite liked sitting on Enver’s lap. “Some rituals permanent can be. Know that you do already.” She sniffed the line of his neck and ran her tongue over it. Pulling back she replied, “And like I do feelings of both sort. Taught me much already you have.” She placed her hands over his shoulders and locked them together behind his head.

Enver: He shrugged at the permanent comment. "And if this is permanent?" He frowned now, not thinking that he'd be like this tomorrow, the next night or a month from now. He wasn't sure how that made him feel exactly, now that she had put a valid point out there. He gave her a half-hearted grin at the second comment about feelings, ducking his head around to try and kiss her after she was done tasting his neck. "Yeah?" He said pressing his lips to hers. "I'm sure there's more I can teach you." She could take it how she liked it, but he knew exactly how he meant it by the devilish look in his eyes.

Keara: She didn’t like the thought of him feeling weak and human-like forever but she wasn’t about to start worrying about that just yet. Her problem with her powers had worn off and it was possible that whatever this was would too. “Sure I am that much you have to teach me still,” she said after he kissed her, her attention turning to the other side of his neck where she repeated what she’d done before. “And if permanent your issue is, adjust to it you shall. Sure I am of that.”

Enver: It took all his willpower, but he did it. Enver leaned back a little. "And you?" He tried to get their eyes to meet, to see what she thought of the possibility. A hand rested on her thigh, his thumb trailing over the top of it as he continued to stare at her face.

Keara: “Me? Why would I…Oh…Think you do that perhaps leave you I would,” she leaned in to him and placed a very gentle kiss to his lips. “Matter to me it would not. If age difference between us me does not phase, worry me it would not if weak you were.” She stroked his face with the back of her fingers. “You still you are Enver.”

Enver: "You mean cause I'm older, right?" He winked at her with a chuckle, his hand creeping further up on her thigh. "Just means more life experiences to teach you." The male winked at her before he snagged the hand at his face, kissed the inside of her palm, then slowly pierced the flesh with his fangs, just enough to get a reaction from her.

Keara: His reply made her smile and she was about to object when he continue talking again. The kiss on her palm too helped to keep her words at bay and when he bit her she growled softly, having gasped slightly in the moment when his fangs broke her skin. She hadn’t expected to be bitten there and her kneejerk reaction was to pull her hand from him, something she then corrected by offering her hand back to him. “Sorry,” she bit into her lower lip. “Mean to do that I did not.”

Enver: He chuckled and waited to see what would happen. Would she slap him? Might be interesting. Would she slip off his lap? That'd be a disappointment. Instead, she offered the hand back after apologizing and Enver just shrugged his shoulders. "It's fine. It happens. At least your hand came back." He took the hand and kissed the inside of her palm again, this time forgoing the teeth, to avoid another reaction like that. At least for now.

Keara: “Why would it not? Like I do for your lips upon my skin to feel. Like I do too when bite me you do,” a slight colour rose in her cheeks and she bit her lower lip again as she looked to the hand he held. “Though luck you are that slapped you I did not. Though…done that for a while I have not. So perhaps lucky you need not be. Used to you perhaps I now am.”

Enver: A brow raised at her words, his devilish grin darkening. "You think so? The getting used to me bit?" Enver chuckled, his thumb tracing the inside of her thigh, where he suspected an artery was at, but couldn't be sure. "That's good, if you are, but-." He commented idly and stopped his train of thought, his eyes on the color of her cheeks, and then down to her lips, where she was biting at them. "You're nervous?" He indicated at the lip biting before he leaned forward and kissed her lips.

Keara: “Nervous?” she shook her head. “Nervous I am not. Not now. Bite I do my lip for more than one reason.” It was something she had noticed she’d started doing since she meet him and with her need to figure out her feelings, she’d discovered what made her do it. Choosing not to volunteer the information in a verbal sense, she captured his lips with her own as she wrapped her arms around him and pulled him to her, her lips refusing to part from his.

Enver: He was going to ask her what the reason was, but she wasn't going to let him it seemed. The reason didn't really matter anymore, Enver figured. He'd either figure it out or she'd tell him on her own time and that was good enough. Besides, there were other things going on to distract him. Enver turned his body just a little bit, so that he could playfully toss Keara off him and to the rest of the couch. "Still going to hold that thought that you're getting used to me?" He asked as casually as he could as he started taking her boots off.

Keara: She didn’t like the sofa at all and squirmed uncomfortably on it as he tackled to remove her boot. She half got to her feet, allowing him to keep the boot before collapsing to the floor. “I…erm…Like those I do not,” she said looking to the sofa as if it were some sort of creature to be feared. “And erm…guess see we shall,” she wasn’t sure what he was doing with her boot, but she was going to allow it…for now.

Enver: Enver looked at the couch, then at her, then back at the couch. "Oh, right." He nodded his head, remembering how she never really sat on the couches before. He tossed the boot to the floor, sighed and slipped off the couch to join her. "Sorry." He said apologetically, before pulling her in to his lap once again. "And yeah, guess we'll see." He nodded in agreement.

Keara: “Is there a reason you my boot did want?” she asked as she was pulled back to him. “Or rather…didn’t want,” she looked to where it lay. “Need I the other one remove? Or do you hope that run away I shall not if only one foot covered is?” Her tone was flat as if she were serious and yet there was a slight glint in her eye.

Enver: He grinned, then barked out some laughter. "Bit of both." He admitted. "I don't want them on you and I wanted to take them off before I had my way with you on the couch. Floor works fine too." He winked at her, his hands slipping under her top to try and pry her out of it.

Keara: She reached around him with one hand and began removing the other boot as he tried, to remove her top. “Pay more attention you should when dress I do. Then perhaps chance you would stand for me out of my attire to get without my help,” she teased, kissing his cheek quickly before pulling back a little to help him in his endeavour.

Enver: He stopped to scoff at her. "I pay attention to every second you’re naked." He gave her a cheeky grin and a nod to confirm that as his lips trailed over the contours of her neck as he got her out of her top and let his hands roam over the newly exposed flesh. His intent was to see if he could shake up the idea of her being used to him and the things he did and would try his damndest, for as long as it took.
