Some Quintessence naughtiness!! Cardia Blackwell: D, T, V Sisi (THE GIRL NOT THE DOG... I think she might be my fave /)//v//(\ ) : E, F, G, W <3 <3 <3 <3 Carlotta: Y, Z
Yay! With great pleasure!
These asks are related to my Contemporary AU fic “Quintessence” which I still need to write a proper summary for and post publically. (It is available on request if you don’t mind a description instead of a truly elegant summary.) It follows the reborn soul of Cardia and the decendents of the Lupin Gang (along with the immortal and long lived members of the Gang.) Since only two people have read it so far, I’m putting this behind a cut.
Cardia Blackwell:
D: Dirty Secret. At first I was like ??? Cardia is very much a virgin. She has fiercely suppressed all desire for a lover, thinking such things forever impossible for her to have. But… when I did a little digging…
Cardia went to Egypt when she was 18 with her Advanced Ancient Studies group. While there, they visited a newly excavated cave dwelling that she heard of through her alchemy connections. The caves were empty except for three pieces of stone furniture, a workbench, a chair, and a raised bed, all clearly and beautifully carved with some of the most ancient symbols of alchemy known. Cardia was mesmerized by them, but was only able to do a few rubbings and take pictures to examine later before they had to leave.
She was examining the photos late that night when she noticed a familiar symbol on the stone table— Hermes Trismegistus own ancient personal signature.
It was one of Cardia’s most cherished desires to visit one of Hermes Trismegistus’s laboratories. Not stopping to think… Certainly not acting at all like the serious, mature teenager known by her teachers and classmates, she crept back to Hermes laboratory with her chemical kit. Her goal to find out when Hermes had lived there.
She finished her work, but couldn’t make herself leave. She could almost see a tall, beautiful man in robes working at the bench making medicinal elixirs. She could feel his presence in the cave. She wondered what it might be like to have lived there with him— the only man she had ever desired at that point. She laid down on Hermes‘ bed and, caught up in the enchantment of the moment, masturbated to a spectacular orgasm… and fell asleep.
She dreamed (???) that she heard a deep sigh, “It has been much too long since these eyes and walls have seen such a sight.” she felt a big hand stroking her head and a soft touch on her lips, “It is all right. Be at peace, you precious soul.”
She awoke from a very sweet dream two hours later and returned to her absolutely mortified senses. She pulled up her jeans, scrambled to pick up her chemical kit and bolted out the door, feeling a confusing mixture of elation and mortal embarrassment.
The next day Cardia found a beautiful emerald cabochon finely etched with Hermes symbol in the pocket of her jeans that she DEFINITELY didn’t remember picking up. She was afraid to test its age and authenticity. She is still horribly ashamed for pleasuring herself in Hermes laboratory, but if she could ever admit it, it was the most daring and thrilling moment of her life before she met Saint.
I sometimes wonder if she might have crushed a little on Fran as a teen- a gentle alchemy professor who she trusted completely… but I haven’t gotten that from her yet. It was only Hermes that she wanted! (Though in her imagination he sometimes looked more like Saint. Especially in her dreams.)
She still carries the emerald in her purse to the present day. I want Noreen to get the truth out of her someday!
T: Toys. Once she is with Saint, he will be all she needs. Saint doesn’t have much use for devices, but he sometimes enjoys using pieces of fruit or other edible things to stimulate her. She was horrified at first! She doesn’t want to admit that she especially likes the way melon pieces feel…
Before Saint, she had a small vibrator that she received as a gag yankee swap gift at her bookstore. She told her coworkers she threw it away, but secretly she kept it… She probably even named it. I haven’t gotten the name out of her yet. I expect it to be pretentious and Latin, though.
V: Vocal: Cardia is usually very quiet, making only soft gasps, sighs and quiet moans. She doesn’t speak much until she’s close to coming and then just repeats Saint’s name over and over, rarely anything else. Saint absolutely cherishes the sound of her voice when she whispers his name that way. She sometimes cries when they make love. Often they both do.
Sisi Barbicane:
E: Experience: Very little. None of it good. Being a vampire among humans is very hard for Sisi. Most humans are either afraid of vampires or fetishize them. Sisi has a warm heart and can be overly trusting, but she is pretty shy when it comes to romantic relationships. She was seduced by a teammate as a teenager, but it turned out he was dared by his buddies to find out if it was true that having sex with a vampire would give him special powers. He dumped her pretty fast when he found out she was just a physically strong, vulnerable girl with fangs. He spread rumors that she was a whore and a fake vampire. She was terribly hurt and hasn’t been involved with anyone since.
(That teammate left the team soon after. He suddenly decided to become a missionary despite no previous religious or altruistic inclination… and disappeared soon after. He’s currently on the missing persons list. One REALLY does NOT fuck with the children of the Lupin Gang.)
F: Position: She’d love to have a lover strong enough for the piston. She likes being picked up and cuddled in general. She would be happy to do the same for them. She’s definitely strong enough to hold her lover in position! She doesn’t have a speck of dark kink in her, but she’s flexible and athletic and would be up for trying different positions, even exotic ones. Her lover really likes the cowgirl or any position they can watch her. They love her long gorgeous red hair and the sight of her pretty face… when they get more experienced, they’ll also enjoy 69.
G: Goofy: When she’s happy in love, she can definitely be silly, at least sometimes. Sisi’s lover adores to make her laugh, and doesn’t mind if it is at their own expense, They’ll just do whatever it takes to make her smile. Her lover doesn’t have much of a filter or a capacity for lying, so they often just come out and say embarrassing, perfectly unadorned things in bed as if they were NBD. It always makes Sisi laugh. But if Sisi is feeling sad, they let her cry on their shoulder and show her how much they love her with all the serious skill they can muster.
W: Wildcard: The best way to win Sisi’s heart is to be kind and honest. She wants to trust people, but she’s been hurt, so she’s scared. She has a vulnerable heart.
Despite her extraordinary physical strength and skills, she would love to be romanced and cherished like a normal human girl. Flowers, chocolates, romantic walks in beautiful gardens, swimming in the ocean, romantic cafes… more flowers… all of that. She’d also love to have a lover who could share her passion for flowers, playing sports and flying, too. It all seems like an impossible dream to Sisi to find someone like that who also doesn’t mind that she’s a vampire.
Carlotta Van Helsing:
Y: Yearning: Carlotta has a robust sex drive. She’s second of the younger generation in terms of experience, and enjoys a good fling with a spirited and, above all, INDEPENDENT lover now and then. She HATES clinginess. She’s fine going alone for extended periods of time and just taking care of things herself. It is less trouble than a bad relationship. She isn’t currently in a serious relationship, but she’s got her eye on someone special.
Z: How fast she falls asleep: It depends. If she is with an experienced lover who hit all her buttons, she falls asleep pretty fast. If she’s with someone who is nervous or shy and who she needs to guide, she tries to make sure to make them feel safe and cared for. She does enjoy teaching lovers sometimes.
