Welcome to my rp sanctuary.  Multiship- unless stated otherwise all ships exist in separate universes. Multi-universe Multi-muse I do not rp smut, it's not something I'm comfortable writing. I will only rp "mature" themes if I know you are of age. I do not own any of the pictures I used in the character pages.

NASA astronaut Karen Nyberg is a self proclaimed crafter. A week ago she made a stuffed dinosaur from scraps on the space station. The little T-rex is made form the lining of Russian food containers and the toy is stuffed with scraps from an old T-shirt. While many toys have flown into space, this is the first produced in space.

Just a note on character resistance...

Just because my muse resists something, doesn’t mean I don’t want you to do it. I’ll happily let my muse be abused in many ways. But that doesn’t mean I’m just gonna have them roll over, especially if they’re fairly powerful. But don’t take their resistance as a sign that I want you or your muse to stop.

I’m making this because I sometimes feel like people think when my muse resists, it’s a sign for them go back off. It’s not. If I am not comfortable with something, I’ll tell you OOC. If I said go for it, I mean just that.

On the flip side, if my muse is ever being too difficult, please, let me know, and I’ll do my best to correct that.

That is all. Feel free to pass this on if you feel you have the same problem.

RP PARTNER (quietly): so, it's a little silly, but I had this plot idea and I was wondering if you were up for it? It's okay if you say no, I just thought it'd be fun-

ME(at full volume): IM ALWAYS A SLUT FOR PLOTS.

also, i want to apologize to people whose messages were ever ignored by me or took me ages to reply to. i have no excuses, i’m just shit at communicating and a lot of time get stuck in my own head, postpone replying and then either forget about it or think that it is too late to reply. i’m sorry if i’ve ever made someone feel bad bc of this - honestly, it’s never personal, it’s just me and my inner problems. i will try harder to work on it. thank you for ever initiating conversations with me ♥

[askcosplaylithuania]

Natalya could not stomach the idea of marrying someone she had no feelings for. Especially someone she had never met before in her life. Though according to her parents she use to play with him when they were children. Natalya refused to believe that though because she didn't remember that or him. Ignoring her parents warnings to be nice, she blurted out her true thoughts. "Let’s get this straight, I’m only agreeing with this arrangement so my parents would shut up.” //only if you want to//

((Of course i want to!!! i love rping with you))

Toris was sitting across from her, they were in the living room of his Parents house, both Natalya’s and Toris’ parents were in the den making preparations for the wedding leaving the couple alone to get reacquainted with each other.

he frowned softly at her words but he nodded “i understand, but do you not remember our time together as kids? i do. you were one of the only kids who would talk to me, all the others thought i was weird, but then again they also thought you were weird. but they were children right” he shrugged softly at the memories “even if you are just doing to shut them up, i do hope that you could at least try to like me” 

 (( @ask-miss-bela i hope this is okay.))

[askcosplaylithuania]

“well you just…you look really cute and i was going to wake you up right after the movie, but then i fell asleep, i’m sorry” he then he raise his hands up in surrender “i promise, i won’t tell a soul” he smiled softly at her

[cryptidcrit]

“Good.” She looked away still flustered.

Nat climbed out of his bed and began to stretch. Not paying any attention to the fact that she was still only in his shirt and stretching wasn’t the best idea.

[askcosplaylithuania]

looking it was her back to Toris but he still gasped and turned around quickly blushing deeply as he shut his eyes covering his face with his hands 

“N-Natalya, please remember what you’re wearing.”

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya blinked in surprise before looking over and him and raising an eyebrow. She glanced down at her outfit before looking at him. Slowly realizing why he was freaking out over.

“It’s not like I’m naked you perv.”  Nat smirked before walking over and poking his back, “Have you always had this dirty of a mind?” she whispered in his ear to tease him.

[askcosplaylithuania]

he jerked and stiffened when she poked his back. he gasped and shivered when she whispered into his ear “n-no! i’m not thinking of anything improper, b-but what if my mother or Father walked in, t-they’d scold us for sure even if we explained.” his eyes were still shut tightly and he was blushing from his ears to his neck 

[cryptidcrit]

“Sure you’re not.” She rolled her eyes. “Wait your parents just walk right in? You’re a grown adult…”

[askcosplaylithuania]

“well, it is their house, there’s not much i could do to stop them, and yes i have tried.” he took a step away from her. “so…you should go to the room that was made for you, i wouldn’t want us to get in trouble”

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya rolled her eyes before walking over and picking up her dirty clothes from the day before. She stopped in the doorway and looked back at him.

“Which room was that?”

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris looked over at her making sure his eyes stayed on her face and nothing else “it’s the one at the end of the hall to the right” he said, still with a hint of Blush on his face

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya just rolled her eyes at his behavior before leaving the room. Though she had to admit he was cute when he blushed and it was certainly amusing to see his reactions.

She entered the room and noticed their was a pill of neatly folded up clothing sitting on the edge of the bed. She dumped her dirty clothing on the ground before walking over and grabbing the note off the clothes.

Natalya frowned annoyed when she read it. Apparently it had been her parents plan all along to suggest her staying over during dinner. But when Toris and her didn’t show up for dinner they forgot all about it until later when Toris came down to ask.

Crumpling up the note she quickly changed into her clean clothing provided by her parents. She smiled upon realizing that her sister had clearly pick it out and thankfully not her mother. After putting on the knee length black skirt and dark green blouse she headed back to Toris’ room. She pulled up her hair as she walked. She opened up his door without knocking and stepped in.

[askcosplaylithuania]

he had his back to the door and was in the process of putting a shirt on resulting in him showing off his bear back to Nat, there were many long scars on his back. he gasped when he heard her come in and he quickly pulled his shirt on and turned to look at her “Natalya! h-haven’t you ever heard of knocking?what if i had been naked, i’m pretty sure you are not in a rush to see that” he was blushing darkly hoping that he could distract her from what she saw of his back

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya blinked in surprise and began to frown slightly. She walked up to him and resisted the urge to remove his shirt and look closer at his back. 

‘Did he always have those scars’

She was going to question him but bit her lip instead, it was obvious he was trying to distract her. She rolled her eyes and poked his chest instead.

“If you’ve seen one man you’ve seen them all so don’t flatter yourself.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

he fidgeted his hands as he listened to her thankful that she wasn’t saying anything. he tried to get a playful laugh out but it sounded very forced 

“wait…..you’ve seen a man naked?” he furrowed his eyebrows confused

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya blinked in surprise for a moment before letting out a loud laugh. She covered her mouth in an attempt to muffle the sound. After all her laughter was something she didn’t find appealing and the reason she rarely laughed. Once she controlled it for the most part she smirked.

“Wouldn’t you like to know..” she winked before spinning around.

“Hurry up, I’m hungry and don’t want to face your parents by myself.” She started toward the door.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris stood mesmerized while she laughed, a soft smile on his face, to him it was the most beautiful sound he had ever heard. he blushed softly when she winked at him. 

“i’m almost done, if you could just wait a few more minutes. please”

once she closed his door he relaxed. she either didn’t care or she cared enough not to ask about his scars. he finished getting ready and then opened his door and came out “Natalya?”

[rock-and-roleplay]

Natalya has been leaning against the wall with her arms crossed as she conversed with what seemed to be thin air. Her face went bright red when he exited the room and called out her name.

“Ah sorry I was just rambling to myself.” she cringed inwardly at her obvious lie. 

She suddenly sent a glare at a random place in the hall before completely turning her attention to Toris. To say that she wasn’t completely embarrassed at being caught talking to “herself” would be a lie.

“Shall we go Toris?” 

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris raised an eyebrow at her confused, she was acting as if there was another person with them, he quickly shrugged it off but as he thought about it, she had done that alot when they were younger as well. maybe it was like a imaginary friend. 

snapping back to attention at her words he nodded “yes, it’s go” he slowly started to walk to and  down the stairs to the kitchen 

[rock-and-roleplay]

Natalya followed behind him quietly. She couldn’t help but stare at his back as he walked. She was curious but he clearly didn’t want to talk about something like that so she re-framed from asking. Nat got lost in her thoughts as they made their way to the kitchen.

[rock-and-roleplay]

Tangled up fate

[rock-and-roleplay]

“OW!” Alfred exclaimed. “What the hell dude?! Did you really have to hit me again?!” if he could be rubbing the pain away he would.

“You seriously hid it in the vase? You are terrible at hiding things.” he sighed. “I didn’t want to do this but you left me no choice.”

Alfred stared up at him and gave him his most charming smile. Upon seeing no reaction from him he switched over to his puppy dog eyes. 

[askcosplaylithuania]

 Toris just stared at him blanked “what are you trying to do?” his arms were crossed again. “because its not working.”

 honestly Toris actually wanted to laugh at the man tied in the chair as he found the face he was making very funny, but he couldn’t let his guard down he needed to make him agree to his conditions 

[rock-and-roleplay]

“That usually works….I’m just too charming for you it seems.” Al began to pout.

“Seriously can you let me go? I have things to do.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

“No! you have to help me! i won’t let you go unless you help me” he was starting to sound a little desperate 

[rock-and-roleplay]

Al sighed, he really couldn’t afford to take him into the city. Especially with everyone looking for him. However, he wasn’t finding a clever solution around this problem either.

“Is there a reason why you can’t go yourself?”

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris nodded “yes there is, but i can’t tell you it. and its a very good one to” Toris didn’t really want to tell him that he was scared or that he didn’t know the way.

“are you going to cooperate or not?”

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Fine!” He huffed. “But listen here kid. If you so much as try to go back on your word. Let’s just say you’ll have a bad time.”

Alfred was quite proud at the threatening look he was giving. Though he was sure if Gil had seen it he’d probably be laughing. Al just hoped it would scare him enough that he would either give up the notion of using him or decide not to betray him. Not that Al was planning on keeping his word. He was going to ditch him the moment he figured out where the crown was.

[askcosplaylithuania]

“stop calling me kid and i won’t. my name is Toris. and you should use it.” 

the look did send a slight shiver down his back but it was nothing compared to the looks he’s seen his father make before. so he took a deep breath and moved closer 

“before i untie you, what’s your name.”

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Alfred Jones, notorious thi-hero at your service.” He cringed inwardly at his near slip up. “Just hurry up and untie me so we can go Toris.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris moved over and started to untie him. “Alright, Alfred Jones. you b-better not try thingy funny alright, because if you did and my father heard about it you’d be dead, got it” he said as he finished and stepped away from him looking at him with a stern look

[rock-and-roleplay]

Al rolled his eyes as he stood up and began stretching. “As if I’d stick around and let your father find me.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

“yes, well…fine, lets just get going alright. we can’t waste anytime” Toris looked around fiddling with his hands, was their anything he needed to do or bring with him. he bite his lip as he thought, should he really be doing this. Yes! he should he had to

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Well I hope you know how to climb Toris. Otherwise you’re not going to be able to get out of here.”

Al was secretly hoping that he wouldn’t be able to as he walked over to the window and lowered himself out of it.

[askcosplaylithuania]

“that’s what you think” he muttered softly as he let the man, Alfred, start climbing down, he went right next to the window and pulled the curtain back revealing a long thick rope tied tightly on a hook. 

He took a deep breath as he looked down at the ground holding on to the window sill he throw the rope out and holding on to it he jumped off, passing where Alfred was slowly climbing down slowly in just a moment, he got to the ground and ended up landing not very gracefully, rolling to break the landing.

once he was on the ground he gasped and laughed standing up he started to run around the little area wiggling his toes in the little stream there. he looked so happy and excited

[rock-and-roleplay]

Alfred grumbled about that being cheating as he made his descent down the tower.  He got to the ground before staring at Toris, who looked like a kid in a toy store.

“Don’t tell me this is your first time out of that tower.” 

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris waslaying in the grass looking up at the sky with Alfred asked that, he got up and looked away frowning “a-and if it is? why do you c-care” he still didn’t trust this man, because he could still be lying about not wanting him for his power.

[rock-and-roleplay]

Alfred was momentarily shocked, he couldn’t actually believe what he heard. How could anyone willingly stay inside a tower and never leave.

He pushed down the desire to show Toris the entire Kingdom. After all he was technically a wanted fugitive and had bigger plans. Plans that were currently being threatened by this hermit.

Al grinned at the plan that formed in his mind. Maybe he could scare Toris into giving up and handing over the crown.

“Well time isn’t waiting on anyone Toris. We should be going if we wanna make it. Which means you gotta stop playing around.” Al smirked.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris gasped and glared at him “i wasn’t playing! …i was waiting for you.” he smirked and crossed his arms “i mean come on, i’m pretty sure i saw a snail pass you on the way down” 

he chuckled at his joke and turned to the exit and started to walk “let’s go, i don’t want to miss anything. i’ve been waiting my whole life for this” he closed his eyes and took a deep breath before he took one last look at the tower before he went through the vines

[rock-and-roleplay]

Alfred chased after him quickly and smacked his shoulder lightly while laughing.

“My bad, I thought frolicking and rolling around in the grass were considered playing. Guess I’ve been wrong all along.”

Alfred was walking casually in front of Toris, well casually is how it would seem to Toris. The truth was that Al was very cautiously keeping a close eye on their surroundings. The last thing he needed was to run into the palace guards he was just escaping from.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris laughed softly and bite his lip watching Alfred from behind. even if he didn’t fully trust him he couldn’t help but stare, this was the first human other then his Father who he had ever seen in person, he had books with pictures of people but pictures only go so far. 

“so, how old are you? you seem pretty young…do most people your age go off alone? what do you do for a living? do you have a wife or something? do you have siblings? friends?” Toris was so curious, he wanted to know so much.

[rock-and-roleplay]

Alfred laughed and looked back at Toris. “You certainly ask a lot of questions. I mean why would I even bother answering you. It’s not like I trust you.”

He turned back a continued walking to let it sink in before finally answering. 

“I’m nineteen if you must know, I’ve never been interested in a wife and I have a few friends?” he stated the friends part slightly unsure of himself. 

‘Not sure they’re still my friends at this point in time though’

“So why do you live in a secluded tower and where was your father that you were talking about.” he left off the does this father person even actually exist part.

[askcosplaylithuania]

“Well of course I ask a lot of questions, we’re going to be together for three days we should at least know a little bit about each other.” Toris watched him as he talked, so he was the same age as Toris that’s interesting.

“You’ve never been interested in a wife? Why you seem like a good young handsome man, I feel like you would have plenty of women to pick from.” In all the books Toris had read the main character was always interested in finding a wife. So the fact that Alfred wasn’t confused him slightly. Not to say that he felt differently but he hadn’t even ever talked to a girl so he was in a bit of a difference situation.

Toris tensed slightly at the mention of the tower and his father.

“Well because that’s my house it’s where I’ve always lived. And my father is on a trip to get me some paint as a birthday present. That’s why we have to get back in three days. My father can’t know I was gone.”

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Are you trying to flirt with me Toris?” He glanced back with a mischievous look.

Al couldn’t help but laugh when Toris turned red and began sputtering our a reply.

‘He’s kinda cute when he’s flustered….focus Al! You gotta ditch him and get the crown.’ “Oh relax, I’m only messing with yea.” He grinned and looked up at the sky. “I’m too busy to find someone. Besides they’d only get in the way of my great plan.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

“i wasn’t flirting, i was stating a fact. anyone would call you handsome.” he was still blushing, ‘oh god i wasn’t firting was i? i have to stay focused, we have to get to the lights and then back to the tower’ he looked back at him ‘but he is really very handsome, and he climbed the tower on his own he must be strong” he shook his head and cursed himself under his breath.

Toris crossed his arms “oh and what’s your great plan?” he moved to he was walking next to him “well mister hero?” 

[rock-and-roleplay]

Al turns around so he’s facing Toris but keeps walking, backwards.

“That is a secret you are not privy to Toris~” he winks and chuckles.

Ivan glared at everything in his path as he walked, he was not in a good mood. He hated having to go all that way for some paint. Especially since he was just out getting things for his flowers favorite dinner. He sighed and ran his hand through his hair knocking off the hood of his cloak.

Then again it was his own fault for teaching his flower to paint when he was a small child. Painting was something Ivan enjoyed himself and the moment his flower showed interest he couldn’t help it. Besides painting kept the small child entertained and distracted from the outside world. He remembered the many nights when they painted together and smiled.

‘He was easier to care for when he was little and never questioned my judgement and didn’t want to leave my side.’

Ivan stumbled back when a horse came out of a near bush and nearly ran into him.

“Watch it!” he hissed until he realized it was a palace guard.

“Have you seen this man?” Arthur held up a wanted poster. “We lost slight of him near here.”

“No I have not.”

Arthur sighed before directing his horse off in another direction to continue his search. He’d be dammed if he let that bloody prat get away with the princes crown. Ivan on the other hand quickly turned and raced back towards the tower.

‘My flower!’

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris rolled his eyes “you’re going to run into something” he said watching him as he watched backwards. 

just as Alfred was about to reply there was rustling in a bush near then and Toris jumped shooting to hide behind Alfred gripping on to his shirt

“OH god what is it? ruffians? thugs? oh god do they have fangs? i shouldn’t have left dear god Father was right!” 

a moment after a little bunny jumped out of the bushes and Toris looked over Alfred’s shoulder and blushed letting him go and stepping away 

“i um…i suppose i’m a bit jumpy…”

[rock-and-roleplay]

“OH GOD TORIS IT’S A MONSTER!!” Al exclaimed pointing that the bunny. “That’s a man eater!!! Quick save yourself! I’ll hold it off!!!”

“Noooo!!! I never got to complete my life goal!!” Alfred crumples dramatically to the ground. “Run Toris! While you can!! Don’t let my death be in vain!!” He didn’t even realize that his loudness had scared away the poor bunny.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris crossed his arms glaring unamused at Alfred. before he turned away “fine, i’ll leave you alone, guess you don’t want that satchel anymore.”  

toris had actually turned away because he was blushing darkly from embarrassment, but how else would he have re acted, he’s been living in a tower his whole life.

“come on Alfred, let’s continue on, we’re wasting time”

[rock-and-roleplay]

Alfred laid on the ground for a moment before pouting slightly and standing up. “Kill joy.” he muttered before walking over to Toris.

“We’re going to have to stop somewhere real quick before we go into town that’s for sure.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

“i am not a killjoy!” he said and then furrowed his eyebrows “stopping somewhere? why? where?” he didn’t really trust Alfred, but he didn’t seem like the kind of person who would want to hurt him so maybe it wouldn’t be so bad.

[rock-and-roleplay]

“You freaked out over a rabbit of all things….I can’t just take you into the city without knowing how you’ll react being surrounded by all those people.” he paused. 

“I’m going to take you to a “nice” but slightly rowdy place to get you use to being around people. If you can’t make it there I’m afraid that taking you into town would be a terrible idea.” Al laughed inwardly at the nice part.

‘Nice and packed with some scary ass criminals’

Alfred hoped that this plan would get Toris to give up and just hand over crown. He really didn’t have time to be wasting with this silly quest.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris frowned “i couldn’t see what it was, it could have been something that could kill us, you didn’t know either….but fine. i suppose it wouldn’t hurt to just try to ease my way in to things. but he can not take to long. i need to be back before my father.” 

[rock-and-roleplay]

Al rolled his eyes, “Its on the way to the city anyway. A little detour won’t hurt you.”

He started walking again while linking his fingers behind his head and resting it against them. 

“The forest surround thing kingdom is relatively safe.” he paused. “I’ve never came across something I couldn’t handle.” he chuckled.  

[rock-and-roleplay]

The Bloody Delight

amant-romanesc

To say that Arthur Kirkland wasn’t well known would be an utter lie. Although it was true that little was known about him personally. Many did know him as the captain of ‘The Bloody Delight’. Kirkland was one of the most bloodthirsty and vile pirates to ever roam the seas, according to the world.

Captain Kirkland was well known for raiding ships, pillaging towns and kidnapping young good looking people, especially men. No one understood why he kidnapped people and could only speculated. Spreading many rumors that the Captain used the kidnapped people for vile reasons before disposing of them.

Little did everyone know that Kirkland was a sly thief who enjoyed taking credit from other pirates as well as their treasures. He would stay in the shadows and wait before making a move. Once his informants relayed that a lesser known pirate had planned a raid he would move in and take their prize.

 It was easy to steal credit when your ship was so well known that even an idiot could tell who it belonged to. His ship was a beautifully crafted two-decker frigate of the third rate. Kirkland choose to go with crimson flags vs the norm black and white. His flag had a white skull with two crossed cutlass under it.

When the other pirate began the raid, Kirkland had his men join the chaos and get what he desired. Kirkland usually stayed back on his ship during raids with a few of his best men to defend the ship from the navy and fellow pirates.

There was nothing Kirkland loved more than stealing what others desired; especially fame in the pirating world. He was the embodiment of greed to be sure.

“Captain it’s begun.” 

Arthur grinned darkly as he looked up from a map. “ Tell t’ men t’ have fun and enjoy themselves.”

The man nodded and quickly left to spread the news. Arthur leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes. He ignored all the noise coming from outside.

“I wonder what treasure shall be mine this time.” his proper English slipping through. 

[amant-romanesc]

“Beggin’ your pardon, sir. The raids by the Spanish and the English pirates ‘ave begun!” A young servant called into the ornate room of the young Romanian King-to-be.

Vladimir Popescu had reigned a peaceful term, with prosperity and acceptance sweeping the nation. Crops were abundant, pockets were heavy with gold and stomachs were always full. After the reign of the last king, who would murder anyone who would give him a funny eye, or dare utter one word of disrespect, Vladimir was a prince worth waiting for, and one most talked about at that.

Because of his kindness and riches, gossip of the man spread all over Europe, praising the political changes Vlad had made. Many a noble had heard of him, meaning, many a pirate had too.

“Station our soldiers at the barracks. Do not let them into the city! I won’t stand to see my people hurt!” The prince ordered, watching the brunette flee the room. Now, Drawing his sword, the blonde sent orders to troops about the castle; his main concern on keeping his people safe. “To the cannons!” He’d cry, praying his people were okay.

Little did he know, however, his people weren’t the only ones needing protection.

[rock-and-roleplay]

Upon hearing a struggle on the deck of his ship Arthur knew that he would be needed. He grabbed the eye patch from his desk and put it on, not that he needed it. The eye patch was just decorative anymore and only served to make him look more intimidating. As well as covered a nasty scar he received from a certain Spanish Captain a while back.

“ You bloody gits think you can take me ship?!” He bellowed as he slammed open his door and stepped out onto the deck. 

Shocked expressions quickly spread across all the enemy foes, not actually expecting the Captain to be on board let alone take apart of the fight. A nasty sneer materialized on his face as his bloodlust began to rise. He began to cackle as he quickly joined the fray, cutting down anyone that dared get in his way.

Meanwhile on shore his men were making quick work in the city. They allowed the enemy pirates make a mess while they got what their captain desired most. Unlike the other unorganized and rather chaotic pirates, Kirkland’s crew had self control and a goal in mind. They were here only to steal away decent looking people goods and bring them back to the ship unharmed and untampered with.

[amant-romanesc]

“No!! Wait! You can't—!!” The prince cried as he was shoved back into his room, listening to the click of the lock as the admiral and some guards left the hallway. Now he was trapped in this little room with no choice but to sit and watch the ongoing brawl from his tower window. How dare they lock him up. He knew plenty of battle tactics to survive…. He could help, but, being a royal, he was to stay put.

Wait.. How odd. Instead of fleeing the streets, dozens of men were running on, heading straight to his castle. Judging by their clothing, they were foreigners.. Pirates! The English pirates were headed to him!! With the king dead and the Queen absent from the castle, the Royal ready for a beating was Vladimir himself!!

Oh hell.

What would they do? Beat him? Kidnap him? Steal his belongings? The prince shuddered at the thought, holding his pistol tight. There was nothing he could do but sit and wait to shoot men in the kneecaps. Though this was battle, Vladimir didn’t have the heart to kill.

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Do you reckon that large buildin’ has some proper booty?”

“Ah, that’s probably where a bunch o’ rich folks live”

“Sounds like a perfect place for booty then.” 

With that exchange, Kirkland’s crew unknowingly set off for the castle that housed a worried prince. It wasn’t hard to breach the castle considering the other crew was already engaged with the guards and both were too preoccupied to notice the new intruders. Kirkland’s crew split up to cover more ground once the were in the castle itself.  

A dark shaggy haired male peered around the corner of a hall spotting a guarded room. He turned back to his companion who was coming out of another room empty handed.

“Hey Charles what do you think be behind that guarded door?”

“Probably somethin’ important I guess, why else guard it Daniel.” “Hmm I think we should check it out” Daniel grinned before pulling out a circular ball from his bag.

“If you blow it up we won’t know what it be stupid” Charles hissed.

“Relax it’s just a little smoke bomb” Daniel quickly lit quickly before tossing it around the corner at the guards with a grin.

[amant-romanesc]

The prince behind the door cried out as soon as the bomb went off. He heard the two bodies outside his door fall to the ground and keys rustling. He prayed these men never found the right one… He sniffed the air, seeng some smoke drift in from the crack in the door. “Oh god….” He shook his head and covered his nose with his hands. He was not about to pass out today. It just wasn’t happening. Vlad began to back up, praying that the men only saw the room and nothing more. He didn’t want to be taken anywhere, so he backed into his closet to hide. 
Unfortunately, whilst inside, he tripped, making a huge noise and alerting the pirates of his presence. He cursed himself and shook his head. He felt so damn stupid, but stayed hidden in the closet. At least this bought him some time, no? He could think of a way to run. Maybe there was only one pirate?

[rock-and-roleplay]

Daniel grinned at Charles once they heard the noise from the closet. He casually walked over to it with Charles on his heels.

“Whoever you be just come out o’ thar nice and quiet.“ he paused. “If you don’t we’ll happily rough you up.”

“You know we can’t do that!” Charles hissed, “Captains orders.”

Daniel wanted to strangle his comrade at that moment in time.  “They didn’t know that you bleedin’ idiot!”

“Oh…”

Daniel shook his head annoyed before signalling Charles to get on the other side of the door so they were both on either side of it. He didn’t want to take any chances with whoever was inside. Counting to three on his fingers he quickly opened the closet and prepared for either an attack or an attempt to flee. 

[amant-romanesc]

Vladimir held his little dagger in hand, trying not to make a noise. Unfortunately, thanks to a very nosy man, he was grabbed by the lapels of his jacket and thrown onto the floor, a blade at his throat. The poor prince could only watch his knife skitter away across the floor. His only chance to fight was gone. But… Vladimir knew pirates were primarily uneducated and mainly stupid. Maybe he could trick them into letting him go? Vlad squirmed in the men’s arms, cheeks red. “Oh! G-Goodness.. I’m sorry, gentlemen… This isn’t where you should be staying. “L-Let me escort you to your bedrooms..? I… I forgot you were coming..” Maybe if he treated the pair kindly, they’d let him go? Clearly, the two weren’t fooled. There was no doubt Vladimir was the prince and no way the pair wasn’t going to free him. “Who are you two?” He whimpered. “What do you want??”

[rock-and-roleplay]

The pair looked at each other before busting out into laughter. Both had decided in the back of their minds that the man they just found was certainly a riot.

“Did you hear that Dan he thinks we be his guests!?”

Daniel grins, “T’ uninvited and unwanted guests that be t’ say.”

They continued to laugh and joke around about their catch before the head three distinct canon sounds, one right after the other. It was the signal to get back to the ship or be left behind.

“ Well it’s time t’ be leavin’ “ he looked at the frightened man in front of him. “You’ll be goin’ with us o’ course.” 

Daniel nodded to Charles, who quickly hoisted up the man over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes. 

“Don’t struggle kid or I’ll drop you on your head and drag you t’ rest o’ t’ way.” Charles threatened.

[amant-romanesc]

Vladimir’s blood ran cold as the men laughed and joked before him. The sounds of the canon certainly made him jump in fear. But as he was lifted, the prince disregarded his advise and squirmed in discomfort and protest.

“Let me go this instant! Do you hear me? I-I’m not going to your captain! Let go!” But nothing happened. The two seemed to laugh and fled the castle, racing through the corridors in which Vlad pleaded for help with anyone still alive…

But nobody came.

The prince was frigtened as they continued to near the massive vessel. In a matter of seconds, they’d be aboard and sailing away, probably never to see this land again… In one final attempt to free himself, the prince clawed the man’s back -hard- so hard, in fact, he drew blood.. Hopefully they’d drop him? Nope. Now he’s just pissed.

Vlad groaned, shaking his head as he felt a hand clap his ass hard, most likely a warning to behave himself as he was dumped on the deck, hitting his face on the splintering wooden floors and dragged to the mast to be bound. He tried so hard to get away, kicking and screaming as his forehead bled from the fall. The young man fought against the shackles that kept him on the mast, gasping as his head was pushed back to secure an iron collar around his thin neck. He whined in pure discomfort an anger. He demanded to see the captain at once. He couldn’t be treated this way. Surely the pirate leader would see reason?

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Oh Shut your trap like t' rest o' them.”  Charles snapped at him while referring to the other prisoners who were quietly whimpering and trying not to anger the pirates.  

Daniel rolled his eyes and stood waiting for the captain to announce himself to the prisoners.  He noted that the captain was lacking his distinctive red jacket and probably wouldn’t be recognized by the prisoners.

Arthur finished cleaning his blade and turned to the new small crowd of prisoners now on his deck. He frowned at how little there was and approached anyway. He carefully walked around them eyeing them up. Arthur sighed and duly noted that none of them would be of any use on his ship. They would all have to be sold into slavery, not that he expected any different.

Arthur’s eyes however widened when he got to the last of the group and noticed one particular man that didn’t belong. 

“Take t' prisoners below deck!” he bellowed out making some wince. “All but that one, brin' him t' me cabin.” Arthur ordered as he turned around and continued barking orders as he made his way to his cabin.

Daniel and Charles grinned at each other when the Captain took an interest in their captive. Charles grabbed Vlad’s arm and began pulling him to the cabin while Dan went to work.

The Bloody Delight

amant-romanesc

To say that Arthur Kirkland wasn’t well known would be an utter lie. Although it was true that little was known about him personally. Many did know him as the captain of ‘The Bloody Delight’. Kirkland was one of the most bloodthirsty and vile pirates to ever roam the seas, according to the world.

Captain Kirkland was well known for raiding ships, pillaging towns and kidnapping young good looking people, especially men. No one understood why he kidnapped people and could only speculated. Spreading many rumors that the Captain used the kidnapped people for vile reasons before disposing of them.

Little did everyone know that Kirkland was a sly thief who enjoyed taking credit from other pirates as well as their treasures. He would stay in the shadows and wait before making a move. Once his informants relayed that a lesser known pirate had planned a raid he would move in and take their prize.

 It was easy to steal credit when your ship was so well known that even an idiot could tell who it belonged to. His ship was a beautifully crafted two-decker frigate of the third rate. Kirkland choose to go with crimson flags vs the norm black and white. His flag had a white skull with two crossed cutlass under it.

When the other pirate began the raid, Kirkland had his men join the chaos and get what he desired. Kirkland usually stayed back on his ship during raids with a few of his best men to defend the ship from the navy and fellow pirates.

There was nothing Kirkland loved more than stealing what others desired; especially fame in the pirating world. He was the embodiment of greed to be sure.

“Captain it’s begun.” 

Arthur grinned darkly as he looked up from a map. “ Tell t’ men t’ have fun and enjoy themselves.”

The man nodded and quickly left to spread the news. Arthur leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes. He ignored all the noise coming from outside.

“I wonder what treasure shall be mine this time.” his proper English slipping through. 

[amant-romanesc]

“Beggin’ your pardon, sir. The raids by the Spanish and the English pirates ‘ave begun!” A young servant called into the ornate room of the young Romanian King-to-be.

Vladimir Popescu had reigned a peaceful term, with prosperity and acceptance sweeping the nation. Crops were abundant, pockets were heavy with gold and stomachs were always full. After the reign of the last king, who would murder anyone who would give him a funny eye, or dare utter one word of disrespect, Vladimir was a prince worth waiting for, and one most talked about at that.

Because of his kindness and riches, gossip of the man spread all over Europe, praising the political changes Vlad had made. Many a noble had heard of him, meaning, many a pirate had too.

“Station our soldiers at the barracks. Do not let them into the city! I won’t stand to see my people hurt!” The prince ordered, watching the brunette flee the room. Now, Drawing his sword, the blonde sent orders to troops about the castle; his main concern on keeping his people safe. “To the cannons!” He’d cry, praying his people were okay.

Little did he know, however, his people weren’t the only ones needing protection.

[rock-and-roleplay]

Upon hearing a struggle on the deck of his ship Arthur knew that he would be needed. He grabbed the eye patch from his desk and put it on, not that he needed it. The eye patch was just decorative anymore and only served to make him look more intimidating. As well as covered a nasty scar he received from a certain Spanish Captain a while back.

“ You bloody gits think you can take me ship?!” He bellowed as he slammed open his door and stepped out onto the deck. 

Shocked expressions quickly spread across all the enemy foes, not actually expecting the Captain to be on board let alone take apart of the fight. A nasty sneer materialized on his face as his bloodlust began to rise. He began to cackle as he quickly joined the fray, cutting down anyone that dared get in his way.

Meanwhile on shore his men were making quick work in the city. They allowed the enemy pirates make a mess while they got what their captain desired most. Unlike the other unorganized and rather chaotic pirates, Kirkland’s crew had self control and a goal in mind. They were here only to steal away decent looking people goods and bring them back to the ship unharmed and untampered with.

[amant-romanesc]

“No!! Wait! You can't—!!” The prince cried as he was shoved back into his room, listening to the click of the lock as the admiral and some guards left the hallway. Now he was trapped in this little room with no choice but to sit and watch the ongoing brawl from his tower window. How dare they lock him up. He knew plenty of battle tactics to survive…. He could help, but, being a royal, he was to stay put.

Wait.. How odd. Instead of fleeing the streets, dozens of men were running on, heading straight to his castle. Judging by their clothing, they were foreigners.. Pirates! The English pirates were headed to him!! With the king dead and the Queen absent from the castle, the Royal ready for a beating was Vladimir himself!!

Oh hell.

What would they do? Beat him? Kidnap him? Steal his belongings? The prince shuddered at the thought, holding his pistol tight. There was nothing he could do but sit and wait to shoot men in the kneecaps. Though this was battle, Vladimir didn’t have the heart to kill.

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Do you reckon that large buildin’ has some proper booty?”

“Ah, that’s probably where a bunch o’ rich folks live”

“Sounds like a perfect place for booty then.” 

With that exchange, Kirkland’s crew unknowingly set off for the castle that housed a worried prince. It wasn’t hard to breach the castle considering the other crew was already engaged with the guards and both were too preoccupied to notice the new intruders. Kirkland’s crew split up to cover more ground once the were in the castle itself.

[rock-and-roleplay]

Tangled up fate

[rock-and-roleplay]

“OW!” Alfred exclaimed. “What the hell dude?! Did you really have to hit me again?!” if he could be rubbing the pain away he would.

“You seriously hid it in the vase? You are terrible at hiding things.” he sighed. “I didn’t want to do this but you left me no choice.”

Alfred stared up at him and gave him his most charming smile. Upon seeing no reaction from him he switched over to his puppy dog eyes. 

[askcosplaylithuania]

 Toris just stared at him blanked “what are you trying to do?” his arms were crossed again. “because its not working.”

 honestly Toris actually wanted to laugh at the man tied in the chair as he found the face he was making very funny, but he couldn’t let his guard down he needed to make him agree to his conditions 

[rock-and-roleplay]

“That usually works….I’m just too charming for you it seems.” Al began to pout.

“Seriously can you let me go? I have things to do.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

“No! you have to help me! i won’t let you go unless you help me” he was starting to sound a little desperate 

[rock-and-roleplay]

Al sighed, he really couldn’t afford to take him into the city. Especially with everyone looking for him. However, he wasn’t finding a clever solution around this problem either.

“Is there a reason why you can’t go yourself?”

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris nodded “yes there is, but i can’t tell you it. and its a very good one to” Toris didn’t really want to tell him that he was scared or that he didn’t know the way.

“are you going to cooperate or not?”

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Fine!” He huffed. “But listen here kid. If you so much as try to go back on your word. Let’s just say you’ll have a bad time.”

Alfred was quite proud at the threatening look he was giving. Though he was sure if Gil had seen it he’d probably be laughing. Al just hoped it would scare him enough that he would either give up the notion of using him or decide not to betray him. Not that Al was planning on keeping his word. He was going to ditch him the moment he figured out where the crown was.

[askcosplaylithuania]

“stop calling me kid and i won’t. my name is Toris. and you should use it.” 

the look did send a slight shiver down his back but it was nothing compared to the looks he’s seen his father make before. so he took a deep breath and moved closer 

“before i untie you, what’s your name.”

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Alfred Jones, notorious thi-hero at your service.” He cringed inwardly at his near slip up. “Just hurry up and untie me so we can go Toris.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris moved over and started to untie him. “Alright, Alfred Jones. you b-better not try thingy funny alright, because if you did and my father heard about it you’d be dead, got it” he said as he finished and stepped away from him looking at him with a stern look

[rock-and-roleplay]

Al rolled his eyes as he stood up and began stretching. “As if I’d stick around and let your father find me.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

“yes, well…fine, lets just get going alright. we can’t waste anytime” Toris looked around fiddling with his hands, was their anything he needed to do or bring with him. he bite his lip as he thought, should he really be doing this. Yes! he should he had to

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Well I hope you know how to climb Toris. Otherwise you’re not going to be able to get out of here.”

Al was secretly hoping that he wouldn’t be able to as he walked over to the window and lowered himself out of it.

[askcosplaylithuania]

“that’s what you think” he muttered softly as he let the man, Alfred, start climbing down, he went right next to the window and pulled the curtain back revealing a long thick rope tied tightly on a hook. 

He took a deep breath as he looked down at the ground holding on to the window sill he throw the rope out and holding on to it he jumped off, passing where Alfred was slowly climbing down slowly in just a moment, he got to the ground and ended up landing not very gracefully, rolling to break the landing.

once he was on the ground he gasped and laughed standing up he started to run around the little area wiggling his toes in the little stream there. he looked so happy and excited

[rock-and-roleplay]

Alfred grumbled about that being cheating as he made his descent down the tower.  He got to the ground before staring at Toris, who looked like a kid in a toy store.

“Don’t tell me this is your first time out of that tower.” 

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris waslaying in the grass looking up at the sky with Alfred asked that, he got up and looked away frowning “a-and if it is? why do you c-care” he still didn’t trust this man, because he could still be lying about not wanting him for his power.

[rock-and-roleplay]

Alfred was momentarily shocked, he couldn’t actually believe what he heard. How could anyone willingly stay inside a tower and never leave.

He pushed down the desire to show Toris the entire Kingdom. After all he was technically a wanted fugitive and had bigger plans. Plans that were currently being threatened by this hermit.

Al grinned at the plan that formed in his mind. Maybe he could scare Toris into giving up and handing over the crown.

“Well time isn’t waiting on anyone Toris. We should be going if we wanna make it. Which means you gotta stop playing around.” Al smirked.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris gasped and glared at him “i wasn’t playing! …i was waiting for you.” he smirked and crossed his arms “i mean come on, i’m pretty sure i saw a snail pass you on the way down” 

he chuckled at his joke and turned to the exit and started to walk “let’s go, i don’t want to miss anything. i’ve been waiting my whole life for this” he closed his eyes and took a deep breath before he took one last look at the tower before he went through the vines

[rock-and-roleplay]

Alfred chased after him quickly and smacked his shoulder lightly while laughing.

“My bad, I thought frolicking and rolling around in the grass were considered playing. Guess I’ve been wrong all along.”

Alfred was walking casually in front of Toris, well casually is how it would seem to Toris. The truth was that Al was very cautiously keeping a close eye on their surroundings. The last thing he needed was to run into the palace guards he was just escaping from.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris laughed softly and bite his lip watching Alfred from behind. even if he didn’t fully trust him he couldn’t help but stare, this was the first human other then his Father who he had ever seen in person, he had books with pictures of people but pictures only go so far. 

“so, how old are you? you seem pretty young…do most people your age go off alone? what do you do for a living? do you have a wife or something? do you have siblings? friends?” Toris was so curious, he wanted to know so much.

[rock-and-roleplay]

Alfred laughed and looked back at Toris. “You certainly ask a lot of questions. I mean why would I even bother answering you. It’s not like I trust you.”

He turned back a continued walking to let it sink in before finally answering. 

“I’m nineteen if you must know, I’ve never been interested in a wife and I have a few friends?” he stated the friends part slightly unsure of himself. 

‘Not sure they’re still my friends at this point in time though’

“So why do you live in a secluded tower and where was your father that you were talking about.” he left off the does this father person even actually exist part.

[askcosplaylithuania]

“Well of course I ask a lot of questions, we’re going to be together for three days we should at least know a little bit about each other.” Toris watched him as he talked, so he was the same age as Toris that’s interesting.

“You’ve never been interested in a wife? Why you seem like a good young handsome man, I feel like you would have plenty of women to pick from.” In all the books Toris had read the main character was always interested in finding a wife. So the fact that Alfred wasn’t confused him slightly. Not to say that he felt differently but he hadn’t even ever talked to a girl so he was in a bit of a difference situation.

Toris tensed slightly at the mention of the tower and his father.

“Well because that’s my house it’s where I’ve always lived. And my father is on a trip to get me some paint as a birthday present. That’s why we have to get back in three days. My father can’t know I was gone.”

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Are you trying to flirt with me Toris?” He glanced back with a mischievous look.

Al couldn’t help but laugh when Toris turned red and began sputtering our a reply.

‘He’s kinda cute when he’s flustered….focus Al! You gotta ditch him and get the crown.’ “Oh relax, I’m only messing with yea.” He grinned and looked up at the sky. “I’m too busy to find someone. Besides they’d only get in the way of my great plan.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

“i wasn’t flirting, i was stating a fact. anyone would call you handsome.” he was still blushing, ‘oh god i wasn’t firting was i? i have to stay focused, we have to get to the lights and then back to the tower’ he looked back at him ‘but he is really very handsome, and he climbed the tower on his own he must be strong” he shook his head and cursed himself under his breath.

Toris crossed his arms “oh and what’s your great plan?” he moved to he was walking next to him “well mister hero?” 

[rock-and-roleplay]

Al turns around so he’s facing Toris but keeps walking, backwards.

“That is a secret you are not privy to Toris~” he winks and chuckles.

Ivan glared at everything in his path as he walked, he was not in a good mood. He hated having to go all that way for some paint. Especially since he was just out getting things for his flowers favorite dinner. He sighed and ran his hand through his hair knocking off the hood of his cloak.

Then again it was his own fault for teaching his flower to paint when he was a small child. Painting was something Ivan enjoyed himself and the moment his flower showed interest he couldn’t help it. Besides painting kept the small child entertained and distracted from the outside world. He remembered the many nights when they painted together and smiled.

‘He was easier to care for when he was little and never questioned my judgement and didn’t want to leave my side.’

Ivan stumbled back when a horse came out of a near bush and nearly ran into him.

“Watch it!” he hissed until he realized it was a palace guard.

“Have you seen this man?” Arthur held up a wanted poster. “We lost slight of him near here.”

“No I have not.”

Arthur sighed before directing his horse off in another direction to continue his search. He’d be dammed if he let that bloody prat get away with the princes crown. Ivan on the other hand quickly turned and raced back towards the tower.

‘My flower!’

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris rolled his eyes “you’re going to run into something” he said watching him as he watched backwards. 

just as Alfred was about to reply there was rustling in a bush near then and Toris jumped shooting to hide behind Alfred gripping on to his shirt

“OH god what is it? ruffians? thugs? oh god do they have fangs? i shouldn’t have left dear god Father was right!” 

a moment after a little bunny jumped out of the bushes and Toris looked over Alfred’s shoulder and blushed letting him go and stepping away 

“i um…i suppose i’m a bit jumpy…”

[rock-and-roleplay]

“OH GOD TORIS IT’S A MONSTER!!” Al exclaimed pointing that the bunny. “That’s a man eater!!! Quick save yourself! I’ll hold it off!!!”

“Noooo!!! I never got to complete my life goal!!” Alfred crumples dramatically to the ground. “Run Toris! While you can!! Don’t let my death be in vain!!” He didn’t even realize that his loudness had scared away the poor bunny.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris crossed his arms glaring unamused at Alfred. before he turned away “fine, i’ll leave you alone, guess you don’t want that satchel anymore.”  

toris had actually turned away because he was blushing darkly from embarrassment, but how else would he have re acted, he’s been living in a tower his whole life.

“come on Alfred, let’s continue on, we’re wasting time”

[rock-and-roleplay]

Alfred laid on the ground for a moment before pouting slightly and standing up. “Kill joy.” he muttered before walking over to Toris.

“We’re going to have to stop somewhere real quick before we go into town that’s for sure.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

“i am not a killjoy!” he said and then furrowed his eyebrows “stopping somewhere? why? where?” he didn’t really trust Alfred, but he didn’t seem like the kind of person who would want to hurt him so maybe it wouldn’t be so bad.

[rock-and-roleplay]

“You freaked out over a rabbit of all things....I can’t just take you into the city without knowing how you’ll react being surrounded by all those people.” he paused. 

“I’m going to take you to a “nice” but slightly rowdy place to get you use to being around people. If you can’t make it there I’m afraid that taking you into town would be a terrible idea.” Al laughed inwardly at the nice part.

‘Nice and packed with some scary ass criminals’

Alfred hoped that this plan would get Toris to give up and just hand over crown. He really didn’t have time to be wasting with this silly quest.

He would stay in the shadows and wait before making a move. Once his informants relayed that a lesser known pirate had planned a raid he would move in and take their prize.

 It was easy to steal credit when your ship was so well known that even an idiot could tell who it belonged to. His ship was a beautifully crafted two-decker frigate of the third rate. Kirkland choose to go with crimson flags vs the norm black and white. His flag had a white skull with two crossed cutlass under it.

When the other pirate began the raid, Kirkland had his men join the chaos and get what he desired. Kirkland usually stayed back on his ship during raids with a few of his best men to defend the ship from the navy and fellow pirates.

There was nothing Kirkland loved more than stealing what others desired; especially fame in the pirating world. He was the embodiment of greed to be sure.

“Captain it’s begun.” 

Arthur grinned darkly as he looked up from a map. “ Tell t’ men t’ have fun and enjoy themselves.”

The man nodded and quickly left to spread the news. Arthur leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes. He ignored all the noise coming from outside.

“I wonder what treasure shall be mine this time.” his proper English slipping through. 

[amant-romanesc]

“Beggin’ your pardon, sir. The raids by the Spanish and the English pirates ‘ave begun!” A young servant called into the ornate room of the young Romanian King-to-be.

Vladimir Popescu had reigned a peaceful term, with prosperity and acceptance sweeping the nation. Crops were abundant, pockets were heavy with gold and stomachs were always full. After the reign of the last king, who would murder anyone who would give him a funny eye, or dare utter one word of disrespect, Vladimir was a prince worth waiting for, and one most talked about at that.

Because of his kindness and riches, gossip of the man spread all over Europe, praising the political changes Vlad had made. Many a noble had heard of him, meaning, many a pirate had too.

“Station our soldiers at the barracks. Do not let them into the city! I won’t stand to see my people hurt!” The prince ordered, watching the brunette flee the room. Now, Drawing his sword, the blonde sent orders to troops about the castle; his main concern on keeping his people safe. “To the cannons!” He’d cry, praying his people were okay.

Little did he know, however, his people weren’t the only ones needing protection.

[rock-and-roleplay]

Upon hearing a struggle on the deck of his ship Arthur knew that he would be needed. He grabbed the eye patch from his desk and put it on, not that he needed it. The eye patch was just decorative anymore and only served to make him look more intimidating. As well as covered a nasty scar he received from a certain Spanish Captain a while back.

“ You bloody gits think you can take me ship?!” He bellowed as he slammed open his door and stepped out onto the deck. 

Shocked expressions quickly spread across all the enemy foes, not actually expecting the Captain to be on board let alone take apart of the fight. A nasty sneer materialized on his face as his bloodlust began to rise. He began to cackle as he quickly joined the fray, cutting down anyone that dared get in his way.

Meanwhile on shore his men were making quick work in the city. They allowed the enemy pirates make a mess while they got what their captain desired most. Unlike the other unorganized and rather chaotic pirates, Kirkland’s crew had self control and a goal in mind. They were here only to steal away decent looking people goods and bring them back to the ship unharmed and untampered with.

[amant-romanesc]

“No!! Wait! You can't—!!” The prince cried as he was shoved back into his room, listening to the click of the lock as the admiral and some guards left the hallway. Now he was trapped in this little room with no choice but to sit and watch the ongoing brawl from his tower window. How dare they lock him up. He knew plenty of battle tactics to survive…. He could help, but, being a royal, he was to stay put.

Wait.. How odd. Instead of fleeing the streets, dozens of men were running on, heading straight to his castle. Judging by their clothing, they were foreigners.. Pirates! The English pirates were headed to him!! With the king dead and the Queen absent from the castle, the Royal ready for a beating was Vladimir himself!!

Oh hell.

What would they do? Beat him? Kidnap him? Steal his belongings? The prince shuddered at the thought, holding his pistol tight. There was nothing he could do but sit and wait to shoot men in the kneecaps. Though this was battle, Vladimir didn’t have the heart to kill.

[rock-and-roleplay]

“Do you reckon that large buildin’ has some proper booty?”

“Ah, that’s probably where a bunch o’ rich folks live”

“Sounds like a perfect place for booty then.” 

With that exchange, Kirkland’s crew unknowingly set off for the castle that housed a worried prince. It wasn’t hard to breach the castle considering the other crew was already engaged with the guards and both were too preoccupied to notice the new intruders. Kirkland’s crew split up to cover more ground once the were in the castle itself.  

A dark shaggy haired male peered around the corner of a hall spotting a guarded room. He turned back to his companion who was coming out of another room empty handed.

“Hey Charles what do you think be behind that guarded door?”

“Probably somethin’ important I guess, why else guard it Daniel.” “Hmm I think we should check it out” Daniel grinned before pulling out a circular ball from his bag.

“If you blow it up we won’t know what it be stupid” Charles hissed.

“Relax it’s just a little smoke bomb” Daniel quickly lit quickly before tossing it around the corner at the guards with a grin.

[amant-romanesc]

The prince behind the door cried out as soon as the bomb went off. He heard the two bodies outside his door fall to the ground and keys rustling. He prayed these men never found the right one… He sniffed the air, seeng some smoke drift in from the crack in the door. “Oh god….” He shook his head and covered his nose with his hands. He was not about to pass out today. It just wasn’t happening. Vlad began to back up, praying that the men only saw the room and nothing more. He didn’t want to be taken anywhere, so he backed into his closet to hide. 
Unfortunately, whilst inside, he tripped, making a huge noise and alerting the pirates of his presence. He cursed himself and shook his head. He felt so damn stupid, but stayed hidden in the closet. At least this bought him some time, no? He could think of a way to run. Maybe there was only one pirate?

[rock-and-roleplay]

Daniel grinned at Charles once they heard the noise from the closet. He casually walked over to it with Charles on his heels.

“Whoever you be just come out o' thar nice and quiet." he paused. “If you don’t we’ll happily rough you up.”

“You know we can’t do that!” Charles hissed, “Captains orders.”

Daniel wanted to strangle his comrade at that moment in time.  “They didn’t know that you bleedin' idiot!”

“Oh...”

Daniel shook his head annoyed before signalling Charles to get on the other side of the door so they were both on either side of it. He didn’t want to take any chances with whoever was inside. Counting to three on his fingers he quickly opened the closet and prepared for either an attack or an attempt to flee.

The Bloody Delight

amant-romanesc

To say that Arthur Kirkland wasn’t well known would be an utter lie. Although it was true that little was known about him personally. Many did know him as the captain of ‘The Bloody Delight’. Kirkland was one of the most bloodthirsty and vile pirates to ever roam the seas, according to the world.

Captain Kirkland was well known for raiding ships, pillaging towns and kidnapping young good looking people, especially men. No one understood why he kidnapped people and could only speculated. Spreading many rumors that the Captain used the kidnapped people for vile reasons before disposing of them.

Little did everyone know that Kirkland was a sly thief who enjoyed taking credit from other pirates as well as their treasures. He would stay in the shadows and wait before making a move. Once his informants relayed that a lesser known pirate had planned a raid he would move in and take their prize.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Natalya could not stomach the idea of marrying someone she had no feelings for. Especially someone she had never met before in her life. Though according to her parents she use to play with him when they were children. Natalya refused to believe that though because she didn't remember that or him. Ignoring her parents warnings to be nice, she blurted out her true thoughts. "Let’s get this straight, I’m only agreeing with this arrangement so my parents would shut up.” //only if you want to//

((Of course i want to!!! i love rping with you))

Toris was sitting across from her, they were in the living room of his Parents house, both Natalya’s and Toris’ parents were in the den making preparations for the wedding leaving the couple alone to get reacquainted with each other.

he frowned softly at her words but he nodded “i understand, but do you not remember our time together as kids? i do. you were one of the only kids who would talk to me, all the others thought i was weird, but then again they also thought you were weird. but they were children right” he shrugged softly at the memories “even if you are just doing to shut them up, i do hope that you could at least try to like me” 

 (( @ask-miss-bela i hope this is okay.))

[askcosplaylithuania]

“well you just…you look really cute and i was going to wake you up right after the movie, but then i fell asleep, i’m sorry” he then he raise his hands up in surrender “i promise, i won’t tell a soul” he smiled softly at her

[cryptidcrit]

“Good.” She looked away still flustered.

Nat climbed out of his bed and began to stretch. Not paying any attention to the fact that she was still only in his shirt and stretching wasn’t the best idea.

[askcosplaylithuania]

looking it was her back to Toris but he still gasped and turned around quickly blushing deeply as he shut his eyes covering his face with his hands 

“N-Natalya, please remember what you’re wearing.”

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya blinked in surprise before looking over and him and raising an eyebrow. She glanced down at her outfit before looking at him. Slowly realizing why he was freaking out over.

“It’s not like I’m naked you perv.”  Nat smirked before walking over and poking his back, “Have you always had this dirty of a mind?” she whispered in his ear to tease him.

[askcosplaylithuania]

he jerked and stiffened when she poked his back. he gasped and shivered when she whispered into his ear “n-no! i’m not thinking of anything improper, b-but what if my mother or Father walked in, t-they’d scold us for sure even if we explained.” his eyes were still shut tightly and he was blushing from his ears to his neck 

[cryptidcrit]

“Sure you’re not.” She rolled her eyes. “Wait your parents just walk right in? You’re a grown adult…”

[askcosplaylithuania]

“well, it is their house, there’s not much i could do to stop them, and yes i have tried.” he took a step away from her. “so…you should go to the room that was made for you, i wouldn’t want us to get in trouble”

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya rolled her eyes before walking over and picking up her dirty clothes from the day before. She stopped in the doorway and looked back at him.

“Which room was that?”

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris looked over at her making sure his eyes stayed on her face and nothing else “it’s the one at the end of the hall to the right” he said, still with a hint of Blush on his face

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya just rolled her eyes at his behavior before leaving the room. Though she had to admit he was cute when he blushed and it was certainly amusing to see his reactions.

She entered the room and noticed their was a pill of neatly folded up clothing sitting on the edge of the bed. She dumped her dirty clothing on the ground before walking over and grabbing the note off the clothes.

Natalya frowned annoyed when she read it. Apparently it had been her parents plan all along to suggest her staying over during dinner. But when Toris and her didn’t show up for dinner they forgot all about it until later when Toris came down to ask.

Crumpling up the note she quickly changed into her clean clothing provided by her parents. She smiled upon realizing that her sister had clearly pick it out and thankfully not her mother. After putting on the knee length black skirt and dark green blouse she headed back to Toris’ room. She pulled up her hair as she walked. She opened up his door without knocking and stepped in.

[askcosplaylithuania]

he had his back to the door and was in the process of putting a shirt on resulting in him showing off his bear back to Nat, there were many long scars on his back. he gasped when he heard her come in and he quickly pulled his shirt on and turned to look at her “Natalya! h-haven’t you ever heard of knocking?what if i had been naked, i’m pretty sure you are not in a rush to see that” he was blushing darkly hoping that he could distract her from what she saw of his back

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya blinked in surprise and began to frown slightly. She walked up to him and resisted the urge to remove his shirt and look closer at his back. 

‘Did he always have those scars’

She was going to question him but bit her lip instead, it was obvious he was trying to distract her. She rolled her eyes and poked his chest instead.

“If you’ve seen one man you’ve seen them all so don’t flatter yourself.”

[askcosplaylithuania]

he fidgeted his hands as he listened to her thankful that she wasn’t saying anything. he tried to get a playful laugh out but it sounded very forced 

“wait…..you’ve seen a man naked?” he furrowed his eyebrows confused

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya blinked in surprise for a moment before letting out a loud laugh. She covered her mouth in an attempt to muffle the sound. After all her laughter was something she didn’t find appealing and the reason she rarely laughed. Once she controlled it for the most part she smirked.

“Wouldn’t you like to know..” she winked before spinning around.

“Hurry up, I’m hungry and don’t want to face your parents by myself.” She started toward the door.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris stood mesmerized while she laughed, a soft smile on his face, to him it was the most beautiful sound he had ever heard. he blushed softly when she winked at him. 

“i’m almost done, if you could just wait a few more minutes. please”

once she closed his door he relaxed. she either didn’t care or she cared enough not to ask about his scars. he finished getting ready and then opened his door and came out “Natalya?”

[rock-and-roleplay]

Natalya has been leaning against the wall with her arms crossed as she conversed with what seemed to be thin air. Her face went bright red when he exited the room and called out her name.

“Ah sorry I was just rambling to myself.” she cringed inwardly at her obvious lie. 

She suddenly sent a glare at a random place in the hall before completely turning her attention to Toris. To say that she wasn’t completely embarrassed at being caught talking to “herself” would be a lie.

“Shall we go Toris?” 

[askcosplaylithuania]

Natalya wasn't someone that scared easily but the thought of making this call terrified her to the core. It had been nearly six years since she had left without a "good" reason or a proper goodbye. She disappeared in the eyes of the world; not even her own boss knew. Nat took a deep breath and hit call, she knew he wouldn't answer. Toris was at a world meeting and kept his phone shut off after a previous prank done by her and Poland. Natalya froze up before forcing it out, "I'm coming home."

Toris sighed as he got back to his hotel room after the meeting, it was in Russia this month, it still felt so strange and slightly scary to come back here, be he knew he was safe he was independent. 

he pulled his phone out of his bag and turned it back on as he started to change in to his night clothes, the meeting had gone later then normal, as he was taking his tie off his phone made a noise telling him he had a voice mail, picking it up again he frozen, the name of the caller printed plain as day, “Natalya” 

six years she’s been gone. and now this. Toris was scared to open the message scared it was a prank of some sort. but taking a been breath he pressed the play button and lifted the phone to his ear to listen. 

“I’m coming home”

once he heard the words, the voice, the phone slipped from his hand and his eyes filled with tears, he had already been anger that she left he had given up hope it was almost as if she had followed in the Ancients foot steps and disappeared, but to hear her voice again. it filled him with such relief. 

once he had calmed down he wiped his eyes and hit the return call waiting. praying for an answer

[cryptidcrit]

With the call completed and the message left, Nat knew she couldn’t back out now. She paced quietly in the kitchen of the house that had been her temporary home for the last six years. The bags had already been packed and the only thing left to do was wait for the evening flight back to everything. She collapsed in a chair and couldn’t help but laugh at the irony of the entire situation. The same thing that forced her to run in the first place was now the reason she had to return.

To say she wouldn’t miss her temporary home would be a lie. However, the void in her heart couldn’t be filled here. She needed to be back home and surrounded with her people, family, and friends. The scar on her hand from a cooking accident was proof that she was becoming too disconnected with her country.  

Saying she was coming home was partly a lie because she wasn’t going straight home. She was avoiding her own home in case her siblings had it being watched. Toris was the first person she needed to see now that she was back. After all, he was the one hurt most by her and the one person her entire situation revolved around.

Natalya got out of the taxi in front of his house and just stared at it quietly. Although she no longer had a key to his house she did know where he kept his spare. Not that breaking in would have been hard to do either. 

Taking a deep breath she entered the house and dropped the bags in the hall. From what she could see it didn’t look entirely different, though she was afraid to actually look and find differences. Like him moving on and finding someone that wouldn’t up and leave him while he was in a meeting.

Natalya headed into the kitchen figuring that would be the safest place to wait for him to return home. Nat pulled out the new phone she had been using for the last six years and began typing him a message. She ignored his call the night before on her old phone even though she was just waiting for the flight. Nat finally had the strength to throw away that old phone while she was at the airport.

“I’m at your house.” was all her text said.

[askcosplaylithuania]

After she didn’t answer his call he had sent text message after text message never getting a responds, finally he gave up thinking he must of imagined it but the voice message he ended up listening to till he fell asleep tears of pain, sorrow, and relief stained his cheeks as he slept. 

the next morning Toris completely all the work he still needed to do for that meeting and then he packed up and left, on his way to the airport to go home, he got a text from an unknown number, “I’m at your house” being all it said for a moment he thought maybe it was a wrong number but he knew it wasn’t. he knew Natalya…and it was a message from her. he told the driver to go faster.

once he was on his plane he was antsy, his stomach in knots and even still he pulled a bottle out and poured himself a drink as he waited for them to take off.

he rushed all the way home and yet when he was finally standing out side his own door he froze, what if it was all a trick, what if she wasn’t in there. Toris wasn’t sure he would be able to handle losing her again, even if she never even came back in the first place.

Slowly he moved and turned the handle, it was unlocked, taking a deep breath he opened it and stepped in his eyes shut as he did so and they remand shut untill the door was closed. he opened his eyes and gasped softly covering his mouth as he saw the bags still laying on the ground, he knew those bags. he heard movement in the kitchen and he rushed over, stopping at in the door way as he looked in

“Natalya…it’s really you.” 

[cryptidcrit]

Natalya couldn’t find the motivation to clean up the kitchen that she dirtied earlier when she made food. Honestly if she didn’t have to make food earlier she wouldn’t have. She really just wanted to melt and disappear into the chair she was sitting in. She wanted to flea again but something kept her rooted where she was at.

Natalya could handle the anxiety; she had been suffering with that for a while now but the fear that came up was slowly becoming unbearable. She was afraid to face the man she betrayed. Feeling tears begin to build up she forced herself to stand and go wash the dishes.

She was terrified to see him again after all this time. Nat wasn’t sure how he would react and that scared her the most. She was pretty sure she could handle if he started yelling at her. But the thought of him giving her a look of disappointment or turning away, terrified her.

Honestly though she wouldn’t be able to blame him if he turned away and asked her to leave. She was a terrible person for leaving that day, leaving the person who loved her dearly and leaving the man she began to love deeply. 

She closed her eyes and began to remember that day clearly. Nat was staying at his house as usual. It was something she began doing often once they started dating, Nat hated being alone after all. She had been ill and he was trying to skip a meeting with his boss to stay home and care for her. Of course she refused to let him and force him to go to work. Once he was gone, she made a choice she regretted. Leaving behind a crappy note that said “I’m sorry.” and his house key, she left for good.

“Natalya…it’s really you.”

Nat dropped the plate she was holding and spun around as it shattered in the sink. She blink in surprise at seeing him standing in the doorway, having not heard him enter the house. Nat felt her whole body freeze up.

[askcosplaylithuania]

Toris stood frozen as he looked at Natalya, tears welled up in his eyes and he remember the day she left, and the six years after.

Toris had been trying to stay home from work, not wanting to leave Nat while she was sick but she had insisted and he didn’t want her to feel bad about making him miss his work so he went. he didn;t get home till late that day, he had tried calling home when he figured out he would be but there was no answer, he assumed she was asleep, she was a very deep sleeper, so he left a message. 

he didn’t even notice anything was wrong when he got home till he saw the note on the bed with the key and the flashing light on the answering machine informed him at she never got his message. he tried to deny it, he called her phone over and over and even her house, no answer. he didn’t sleep that night.

for the first four years he was an empty shell, he wouldn’t eat he didn’t sleep or work, the only thing he did with out being forced by America, Latvia or Estonia was lay in bed.

The next two he threw himself in to his work, bushing the pain down as he had gotten so use to in his life, to a normal human it also probably would have seemed as if he had a drinking problem but his drinking never got any worse then it already was.

and the last year, it seem as if he was finally getting better for real, he starting going out with people again, and even though he still had along way to go he was just about to except that Natalya wasn’t coming back.

and then she did.

once he snapped out of his thoughts he took a step closer. “t-this isn’t a dream is it? or a prank, it’s really you?” his voice was strained as he pushed down the lump in this throat. “i didn’t think you’d ever come back” he continued to slowly walk to he was an arms length away, his hand reaching out to her but he was still to scared to touch her thinking she might disappear. 

[cryptidcrit]

“I…” she couldn’t get the words out, not that she had any in particular. Her mind had went blank the moment she saw him again. 

Part of Nat was slightly relieved that he looked somewhat better than the picture she had gotten of him a while ago. Her friend was only trying to make her feel better by getting a picture of him for her but it only made Natalya feel worse. He had looked like shit to her even if he looked decent to other people who viewed the photo. Nat could tell in the photo that he was barely holding it together. And here now that he was standing right in front of her, he looked better but still looked as if he’d shatter any moment. 

She felt sick to her stomach, this was all of her fault. Natalya covered her mouth to keep from sobbing out loud as the tear began to fall freely. She lowered her head and closed her eyes, continuing to cry as quietly as she could.

[askcosplaylithuania]

once he saw the tears falling from Natalya’s eyes it gave him the last bit of emotion that his hand shoot out all the way and he pull her close against him wrapping his arms around her tightly.

“i thought i’d lost you for good” his own tears started to fall from his eyes as he stroked Natalya’s hair. “i’ve missed you so much.” he was shaking slightly from all the pent up emotions from the past years.

“please don’t leave me again, please tell me you’re going to stay”

[rock-and-roleplay]

Natalya couldn’t answer as she pressed her face against his chest and continued crying freely; though she refused to wrap her arms around him. That was something she didn’t deserve to do after causing him so much pain. Or at least that was what the thoughts running in her mind told her.

She wasn’t sure how long she was in his arms before her tears began to slow. Natalya took a shaky breath before slowly pulling back enough so she could actually look up at his face.

Clenching her fists at her side she finally looked him in the eyes. The tears he was shedding were painful but she wouldn’t let herself look away.

‘You did this to him’

“T-Toris...” she reached a hand up to wipe his tears but hesitated.

 Her eyes caught the scar on her hand and she remembered why she was back after all these years. She pulled her hand back and looked away before taking a deep breath.

“The-there’s something important I have to tell you...”
