(( Figure I'd post the continuation of the original here. c: ))

lovvemedead: As she ran her nails down his chest, he somewhere between groaned and moaned. This sort of behavior from her was rather common place in their kismesis relationship, and she was used to it. But this wasn't the reason he was here. He grabbed her by the wrist, and slowly sat up, not pushing her off of him. Lightly, he pressed one of her hands to his chest. "This doesn't have to be like all of that, you know. There are other wways wwe could take this."

themadcorsair: She couldn’t keep back the smile at his reaction, and it continued to stay there even when he had sat up. The hand that he had placed on his chest slowly moved up to his face and by taking him by the jaw, pulled him closer. “Then I suggest you 8e smart and make your advances.” Giving him a sly grin she released his jaw moved her hand back to where he had originally placed it. She had an idea of what he had meant, but still asked. “And what would those other ways 8eeeeeeee?”

lovvemedead: He lifted his own hand up and began to thumb her cheek, meeting her eyes. He was still drunk, but he didn't lose sight of what he wanted. Leaning in, he kissed her on the lips, softly and gently, for one without any fang. Arms drifted about her and pulled her against his chest. "Things could be different." He finally said with a sigh. "Very different."

themadcorsair: Her thoughts had been confirmed through his actions. Cerulean eyes met violet and closed with the kiss, slowly returning it. In the meantime her arms had shifted to be slung around his neck and her hand moved to play with his hair. Her thoughts drifted and snagged on a previous conversation. “8ut what of that flushed crush of yours? Or was that just you trying to avoid a confession that was inevitable?” She continued to run her fingers through his hair as she thought how different those things could be.

lovvemedead: At the mention of his other red potential, Dualscar grew very uncomfortable. He looked away, rubbing the back of his head. "Ah, um…no. I wwasn't makin' it up. And I do like her quite a bit, but, ah, er, she, that is…." He gulped, and then met her eye. "She's a bit younger than I am. Just a bit. You and I wwould be a more fitting match." He nodded his head, trying to make light of the sweep difference.

themadcorsair: “I see...” A sly smile had crept onto her face again, seeing how hesitant he was. “There’s something else you’re not telling meeeeeeee.” She snickered and slid her hands to the sides of his face. “I wouldn’t worry your pretty little mind over it, as of now. I will not ask any further.” That was a lie, for she always would ask more as curiosity was in her nature. As she waited to see his reaction she gently moved a nail down his cheek, silently wanting to puncture it and draw blood. “8ut I do wonder, whoooooooo do you prefer more? And don’t you dare lie to me Dualscar.”

lovvemedead: He was glad that she didn't ask the magic question 'just how young is she', because that was something he wasn't quite ready to admit to her. He was embarrassed by it himself, even if he found the girl to be wise beyond her years. It wasn't something he thought her capable of understanding, and he figured she would endlessly torment him about it. Probably because she would. "I prefer you…" He said without hesitation, bringing his hand over her own and squeezing it lightly. "You understand me, and I understand you. It is only fitting.”

themadcorsair: She saw no hesitation in his answer this time around and decided against tearing a cut into his cheek. “Smart answer.” A laugh came from her right after. “I do suppose that is all I will question you a8out the matter, at least for tonight.” Sighing she looked towards the fireplace. “Though I must admit, there are some days where I don’t understand you at all...” She almost added ‘like this one’, but decided against it. Her curiosity was piqued again and she cocked her head, taking a glance towards him. “You had said earlier that you had felt this way a8out me for awhile. Just how long?”

lovvemedead: She always knew just the most difficult questions to ask, and he found himself sighing and rubbing the back of his head. "Too long. I've always liked you, Spinneret. I think it just took me time to realize that my desires were more than just a simple black…" He leaned in and pressed a kiss to her forehead. "I still hate you, you know. I just love you too." He realized how crazy he must sound…but he didn't care.

themadcorsair: These were one of those rare occasions where he used her full name instead of just calling her ‘Spin’. Her face slightly flushed cerulean as she gave him a small smile while he pecked her forehead with a kiss. “My crazy sea dweller.” Laughing, she in turn gave him a kiss on the lips, and then moved to rest her head on his chest. She took a few moments, carefully thinking before saying anything else and slowly she said, “I do suppose we could make this work.” How they would, she didn’t know, just the thought of having a lover contain both quadrants was hard for her to wrap her head around.

lovvemedead: He ran his fingers through the long waves of her black hair. It wasn't as if he hadn't done this before…but never without yanking on it, never without grinding his nails into her scalp. Now he was finally able to step back a bit, and enjoy her company without constantly considering their rivalry. He pressed a kiss to her forehead, before picking her up in his arms and carrying her to the bed. This is normally where he would violently ravish her…but instead he placed her on the mattress, looking down at her. "Do you really mean that?"

themadcorsair: She relaxed as he ran his fingers through her hair, realizing how much she enjoyed it. Then he carried her and she slung her arms around him. As she was placed on the bed, she looked up at him. “I do.” She had felt no panic bubbling in her throat or regret in what she said like on the ship, nor did she plan on running from him. That had reminded her of how she had changed her mind right after saying yes, and to deny whatever thoughts he had of her lying, she also added, “Truly.”

lovvemedead: He nodded his head once, and then stretched out besides her on the bed, letting his arm hang over her carefully. He was still a bit tipsy, though something about all this had sobered him a bit. He curled up beside her, and just lay there, considering things carefully. He finally had what he wanted. Or so he thought. There was never really telling with Mindfang. "…Did you ever imagine this possible? Or are you just as shocked as I am?"

themadcorsair: She had joined him in laying down and turned to face him. She could tell that he was thinking, and wondered what exactly what he was thinking about, though it was most likely about what she had said. Huddling closer to him she took a glance up at his face. Slowly she said “I’m just as surprised as you are, and I must admit you did catch me off guard.” Slightly smiling she buried her face against his chest.

lovvemedead: The feel of her against him made his heart race faster. He couldn't believe he had her, and that she wasn't trying to tear him to shreds. He leaned in and kissed her on the mouth, deeply and full of desire, but so unlike a black kiss. He could get used to this. "The real question, my dear, is what now. How do we continue if we are no longer black lovers?" He chuckled a bit, giving her a mischievous look. "Should I become a pirate and join you on the seas?"

themadcorsair: While in the kiss her hands crawled up behind his head and pulled him closer. When he pulled away she couldn’t help but laugh at the thought of him becoming a pirate. “One cannot just suddenly decide that they want to 8ecome a pir8.” She sat up a bit and leaned on her elbow, smirking. “You’d have to 8e willing to tarnish that darlin’ reput8tion of yours.” She laughed as she poked his shoulder. “…You know that I could ram8le on forever a8out this.” She laid back down on the mattress and stared at the ceiling for some time before quietly saying, “Aye, it’s worth it though.” Looking over at him she smiled. “If you couldn’t tell, I never once regretted it myself.”

lovvemedead: "Mmm..." He said thoughtfully. When he said it, he hadn't seriously considered it...but there was something to be said for a life on the open sea, serving no master but himself. And of course, there would be Spinneret by his side. It did make it terribly appealing. At the same time, he had spent his life working up to serving the imperial line. It was hard imagining throwing that all away. "...you are right, it is not a decision to be made lightly. Still..." He ran a thumb across her cheek. "I wwould consider it for you. It is a life I imagine I would not regret either." He closed his eyes for a few moments, holding her tightly. "My only hesitation, if the new heiress takes the throne, she wwould need my help. Evven if she is not my matesprit..." And after he spoke, he cringed. How had be managed to be that STUPID? The girl was 8 sweeps, an adult, but still sweeps younger than him. He would never live this down for the rest of his life.

themadcorsair: “What.” She hissed and looked up at him with fury burning in her eyes. Shoving him away, she could feel the black feelings inside return, churning and starting to boil. As she stormed off to the bathroom, a long string of curses slipped from her mouth. She had decided to not leave the bedroom like last time, seeing how Dualscar had just drug her back in. Slamming the door behind her she quickly turned around and locked it, guaranteeing that he wouldn’t be getting in unless he managed to get a key, pick the lock, or of course by simply breaking it down.

Luckily, she had left the blanket in here from earlier, planning on not leaving any time soon. Wrapping the blanket around her and plopping herself on the floor, a frown had etched itself on her face. As she sat there and thought, her mood gradually began its descent. He had probably been pretending that she was the Heiress the entire time. He had also most likely lied to her about preferring her over his flushed crush. And as always, she’d find out the truth one way or another. She began to pout as she thought further. Why, he had probably lied to her the entire time. At this, her mood suddenly crashed and plummeted.

Though she was a fully grown troll, a part of her would always be a wriggler. Always clamoring for attention and always searching for it. Unfortunately for her, in this situation she couldn’t slip into his mind and take control like she’d do to others, forcing them to give their attention to her. No, he could have the grand satisfaction of knowing that she could never even take a small peek.

lovvemedead: Now he had done it. Now he had totally fucked up. That was the last thing on earth he had wanted her to find out, and now he had managed to slip it out randomly for no good reason. The alcohol had probably loosened his tongue. He went to the door and pounded on it. "Spin! It's not wwhat you fuckin think! Wwe're not matesprits, I wwant you!" He felt helpless and angry all at the same time, and he pounded on the door again. "C'mon don't be like this, open the door! It wwas all goin' so wwell.."

themadcorsair: She remained there, pouting over her bruised ego for a few minutes after the pounding. “Oh please! Will you stop lying already?” She sounded upset and her voice had cracked mid-sentence. “Why don’t you go spend your time with your darling seadweller instead of wasting it with me?” She wanted to make him feel extremely guilty. Why not bring in some fake waterworks? With this, tears began flowing down her face and a sob had lodged itself in her throat. Slowly she unlocked the door and opened it a crack, just enough to guarantee he would be able to see the cerulean running down her face. “I hope you’re happy.” Immediately after she closed the door again and returned to her spot on the floor.

lovvemedead: "Gog fuckin damn it wwhy are you bein' such a WWOMAN about this?! That wwas one of thing things I fuckin like about you!" He was genuinely surprised to see her in tears, and secretly, rather pleased. That must mean he actually meant something to her. His tone of voice changed a bit, and he spoke a little more gently. "Wwhat do you need me to do to provve that you're the one I wwant in my flushed quadrant? Because short of hurtin' the girl, I'll do wwhatevver it takes." Hopefully what it takes doesn't involve another whipping.

themadcorsair: She had not expected this and had to stop and think for some time. Clicking her tongue she had almost said ‘break her heart.’, but he would have most likely considered that to be in the category of hurting her. So, going for the light way of saying that she replied, “Tell her who your heart truly 8elongs to, and if you won’t do thaaaaaaaat there’s going to 8e some pro8lems.” She walked back to the door and reopened it. “Well? What do you say?”

lovvemedead: He looked at her, grabbed her, and pulled her up against his chest, crushingly. "I say you are a jealous bitch." He was grinning as he said it. Obviously, he wasn't much better himself. "I wwill do that if it makes you happy. I considered bein' pale for her anywway. She is sharp for her age but she'll need guidance. You, my dear…you are meant to be my matesprit." His hands went to her hips and looked down on her mischievously.

themadcorsair: She winced as his arms went around her with crushing force. “Like you’re any 8etter.” She grumbled. After his hands moved down to her hips she looked up at him, biting her lower lip. “Does someone want to plaaaaaaaay?” She chuckled as her lips lightly slid over his and she wriggled out of his grip. “You’re going to have to come and get it.” Returning to the bed laughing, she laid down on her stomach with her chin in her hands facing his direction.

lovvemedead: "It's alwways a game wwith you…" He said with a sigh, rubbing his forehead with his hand. "Alwways." But all the same, he stepped right on over to the bed, sitting down on the edge and admiring her body. Slowly, his hand went to her hair, he didn't think he would ever get tired of touching it like this, ever. "So, you wwould havve been upset if you thought i wwanted someone else, hmmm? Didn't take you long to get attached." He smirked down at her.

themadcorsair: She laughed at his reaction. “Everything’s a game to me, darlin’.” She gave him a smirk as he looked at her and relaxed as he touched her hair. She glanced over at him with a slightly irritated look on her face, rolling her eyes. “Tch, you must 8e 8lind if you didn’t notice that. And what do you mean 8y me ‘getting attached’?” She sat up and moved to sit beside him, resting her head on his shoulder.

lovvemedead: "Wwe wwere were kismesis just a short time ago, and you didn't seem to care much for my red affections..and noww you are upset by me looking elsewwhere…" He buried his face in her hair and closed his eyes, hiding his smug and content grin. "This is as it should be, lovve. Exactly as it should be." He was glad to have her so close, though he figured that keeping her would be a challenge.

themadcorsair: The main reason she had been upset at him for having interest in the girl was the idea that if he became matesprits with the Heiress, he’d in turn would toss her aside and give his attention to the other. With this it also led to her infamous trait of being quite dramatic, always catching the eyes and ears of everyone around. She could never sate her desire for attention among other things. No, she would always search for it high and low in all places.

She had gotten lost in her thoughts and had forgotten to answer, soon realizing this. She opened her mouth to say what was on her mind, but had shut it, realizing that she wasn’t ready to say it yet. She was afraid of losing him. After all, he was the one who kept her company most of the time and the only one who had occupied the one of the two quadrants actually worth mentioning.

Becoming frustrated with herself, she moved to bury her face the crook of his neck with her arms circling around him. “Have you ever assumed that I was afraid of losing you?” She dared not to say that above a whisper and refused to look at him. She couldn’t take back what she said, for it had already been done and he had heard. Her thoughts were embarrassing to her, and still she had forced herself to say them to him. “You 8etter not tell a soul I said that.” She stole a glance up at his face. “Let’s make a deal. I won’t tell the tale of your vermillion feelings for the Heiress, and you won’t tell a soul what I just said, yes?”

lovvemedead: He glanced at her, rather surprised to hear her confess that she was afraid of losing him. The truth be told, even long before this, he had always assumed that he was the one more invested in their relationship, as compared to her. His hate had always run just a little deeper, and now perhaps, so did his red affections. But perhaps now, she actually felt enough to be thinking differently. "…Spin, I won't tell a soul." He chuckled a bit, and the leaned in to press a kiss to her cheek. It was still strange, being gentle with her. But he did not mind it. He longed for more of it. "….I still can't believe we may actually pull this off."

themadcorsair: Her gaze wandered past him as he spoke the last few words. She knew he would have no problem keeping their new relationship intact. As for herself, she wasn’t so sure. She knew all too well that a person couldn’t change within a day. “Only time will tell.”

A period of silence came from her as a yawn had eventually escaped her mouth, quickly realizing that she had dozed off in his arms. Rubbing her eyes she glanced up at him sleepily, and stifling another yawn with the backside of her hand she mumbled, “It’s l8.” She huddled closer to him. “It’d probably 8e 8est if we got some shut eye 8efore the sun rises.”

lovvemedead: "I agree… and it’s been a long night for us both…" He settled down into the bed, pulling the blanket over them both. He seemed perfectly content, but after a moment he yanked her against him, hard. It resembled old times. "If you leavve me in the middle of the day, I am goin' to hunt you dowwn and murder you for real this time." He sighed and buried his face against her shoulder. Sometimes he could be like a wriggler himself. Always needing to have things his way.

themadcorsair: With his pull, she had almost dug her nails into his shoulder. She snickered. “That’s if you’ll 8e a8le to catch me.” She planted a kiss on the top of his head, and after unconsciously moved her hand up to play with his hair. “8ut I can guarantee you’ll 8e awake 8efore me, so you 8etter not leave.” She mumbled, as she closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep.

lovvemedead: It did not take him long to fall asleep himself. When he woke up the next evening, he almost jumped with her being so peacefully beside him. Had all this really happened? She was still there all right, and he was awake. With a stretch he stood up and yawned, making his way into the shower to wash up. There was much to consider… like how he was going to have a red relationship with an outlaw… The empress would not care too much for that.

themadcorsair: Her fingers twitched when the weight on the other side disappeared, but she hadn’t woke from her slumber yet. He had already been in the bathroom for some time before she had fully awakened. She stretched and yawned before she decided that she should probably get up, and moving to the edge of the bed, she rubbed the sleep from her eyes. While staring at the floor she began thinking about last night, and her eyes slowly moved to the bathroom door. She stood up and walked over to the bathroom, pounding loudly on the door. “Hurry up!” Not willing to wait, she opened the door.

lovvemedead: He was completely nude in the shower, not that it was anything unfamiliar to her eyes. With a yawn, he peered out from behind the cheap shower curtain, giving her a sleepy look. "No thanks…I like to take my time in the evvenin'. You're goin' to havve to learn to take your turn…Or…" He smirked, looking her up and down. "You could alwways join me, mmmm."

themadcorsair: She rolled her eyes at him, unwilling to wait for him to finish up. She then moved to remove her clothing, and clutching the pile in her hands she whipped them at his face, laughing. “If you insiiiiiiiist.” She then walked over to the other side of the shower and stepped in. Standing behind him she wrapped her arms around him and pressed her body against his. “You know how impatient I am.” Another laughed came from her as she peeked around him to steal a glance at his face with a sly grin on hers.

lovvemedead: "I'm not exactly objectin', you knoww." He smirked, very much enjoying the feel of her body against his. "So, you made it through an entire day of bein' my matesprit. Wwe'll see howw much more you can take." He flicked some of the hair out of his face. "But the real question is…howw do we deal wwith the relationship? I'm a general, you are a pirate. Wwe are natural rivvals. Lovve of other kinds is not quite so natural, and might make our jobs more difficult to say the least.”

themadcorsair: The grin on her face disappeared and she sighed. He was right. She remained silent as she thought. “… Perhaps it’s 8est if we keep them in the dark for now.” She knew that the plan wouldn’t last forever, and someone was bound to get suspicious and figure it all out. “While in the presence of others it’d pro8a8ly 8e 8est if we were to act like nothing happened 8etween us.” Clicking her tongue is dissatisfaction, she rested her head on his back. “This, I know won’t last forever… What do you say we do?”

lovvemedead: He did not look back at her as the water continued to fall around them. "We can stall for howevver long wwe wwish. But evventually, one of us is goin' to havve to change. You wwill either need to join me in the upper crust…or I wwill havve to stoop to bein' a pirate." He sighed and rubbed his head. This was not going to be an easy decision for either of them to make.

themadcorsair: She stood there in silence with a grim look on her face. “… I will.” Her voice writhed with pain. They both knew what a difficult and life changing choice this would be, but one of them had to make it. But could she change? The sea was her domain, her kingdom. It was all she ever really cared about, and here she was willing to give it away. And she definitely wouldn’t be welcomed with open arms with all of the bounties placed on her head and the rest of her infamous track record. “8ut I suppose, we’ll cross that bridge when we get to it.” Her fingers twitched uncomfortably as she took another glance up at him.

lovvemedead: "Wwe may be crossing that bridge sooner rather than later." He said grimly, as he grabbed a towel and stepped from the water. "It's not goin' to be an easy thing to explain, wwhen it comes dowwn to it." Carefully he began to towel his hair, before glancing at her over his shoulder. "Also, if I catch you red flirtin' wwith anyone, I wwill kill you for certain. Those days had better be behind you, if nothin' else.

themadcorsair: She frowned and folded her arms across her chest, letting the water run over her head. “Nothing’s ever easy, Dualscar.” She could say that she’d promise that she wouldn’t cheat, but she didn’t know if she could actually keep it. Either way she found herself saying, “They are.” Quickly finishing up in the shower, she stepped out and grabbed a nearby towel to wrap around herself.

lovvemedead: He was starting to realize that the more Mindfang was in his quadrants, the more frustrating and uncertain things could be. He took a look at her and sighed. Even now that she was his…was it even real? He may never know. Grumbling, he fell back to the bed, still wet from the shower and naked except for the towel, but he didn't care. "I guess wwe should both go back to our ships then."

themadcorsair: She glanced over at him from the bathroom. “I suppose.” She plopped herself beside him on the bed. “Though I may not see you until a fortnight has passed.” She sighed and idly played with the edge of her towel. She would first visit her island where she stored all of her treasure and go incognito for some time, letting things cool down after her recent pillaging escapade of several cities. “Do try not to miss me too much.” She laughed and turned to look at him.

lovvemedead: "A fortnight…?" He did not like the sound of that, not at all. Too much time for her to get into trouble, and namely, trouble without him. He considered it long and hard, before sitting up in bed and looking over to her. "Fuck that. I'm goin' to come wwith you." He wasn't sure how, but he knew that with their relationship still this new he did not want to risk her forgetting about him. He would stay with her if it killed him.

themadcorsair: “You can’t.” She glared at him. “You have affairs of your own to deal with involving the Empire and you cannot go off the map for that long.” She reached over and pushed him back down onto the bed by his shoulder. Leaning over him a pained look flashed across her face. “They would question…” She never finished her sentence. Most certainly they would cull him for leaving his duties unattended for such a period of time. If they didn’t cull him, after questioning him they’d most likely come after her with more force than what they usually have. “Stay.” She then set a light kiss on his lips and moved to get dressed.

lovvemedead: "But I don't wwant to leavve you." He watched her as she dressed, looking quite disappointed. "Wwhy should I let you leave and have all the fun, wwhile I sit here and wwait like some drunken sailor waitin' for a wwhore. Spinneret, if you truly wwish me to be in your red quadrant, I am not goin' to just settle and let you flit around, probably flirtin' as you do so. There has to be a way I can join you." He was aware of the fact that he probably sounded like a desperate, pathetic bastard…but he didn't care. He wanted her to himself, there was nothing else to it.

themadcorsair: After she was finished dressing herself she walked back over to the bed. Standing in front of him she stared at his face, deep in thought. He was smart to not trust her, though it annoyed her greatly. Finally as she sighed she said, “Would it make the situation 8etter if you were to meet up with me at a certain loc8tion?” No, of course it wouldn’t. He’d most likely be persistent and still ask to go with her. She frowned. Why did she even bother asking? After taking a few moments she then said, “Fine, if you are so desper8te to have me at your side and do not trust me enough, then so 8e it.” She walked over to lean on the wall nearby the door. “Hurry up and get ready… After all, he who falls 8ehind shall 8e left 8ehind.”

lovvemedead: He sighed a bit, grumbling. He could really seem like an irritated wriggler sometimes when he did not get his way. He began to pull on his clothes, before finally relenting. "…Perhaps it is a wwise idea to meet, as we are doing noww…pick a port and date, I shall be there…" He stepped over to her, running a finger under her chin, looking down at her in fondness. "It wwill be most difficult, hidin' my affections for you, but not so hard as not wwakin' up wwith you beside me.."

themadcorsair:She raised her eyebrows in surprise at him agreeing with her first idea, which she hadn’t expected him to. Meeting his eyes she took the hand that was under her chin and placed it on the one side of her face.

She would pull him in for one last kiss before they would go their separate ways. In between the kisses she said, “Port of Blackwall.” Blackwall, a shady city, infamous for its lack of regard for the law and the brutal criminals it housed. “Five days from now.” She sighed and slightly pulled away from him with her one hand slowly opening the door. “Until then, Daemion.” She then slipped out the door and began making way for her ship.

lovvemedead: "Yes…yes, that is perfect.." He held her hands in his own, squeezing them lightly, before she pulled away, still feeling the touch of her lips on his own. He watched her leave longingly, hating the fact that they were parted…and hating himself more for feeling that way. The woman was a weakness, and he resented that…but at the same time, he couldn't give it up. She had rightfully earned a place in both his red and black quadrants.

The five days went by, and Dualscar had managed to find a reason for him to be in the port. Unfortunately, that reason included tracking down a vicious criminal who was last seen in the area. It was rather like looking for a needle in a haystack. Still, it gave him an excuse to be there for an extended period of time…He sat in the first bar at port, sipping a drink. He looked around for Spinneret as he did so…hoping she would make an appearance.

themadcorsair: The days had come and gone, her ship was unloaded of the spoils from past expeditions, and her crew well on guard. She had always played the cat and mouse game, but this time she had caught some unwanted attention while plundering one of the cities she and her crew had raided. Along with that, there were always a few trolls that had managed to escape and planned to avenge their home. Her mind drifted to the nine days she’d still have to not draw too much attention to herself.

Several hours passed and they had finally arrived at port, and as always her crew would wander off into the city or stay on board until dusk. Her eyes went straight to the first bar in port, which was the usual meeting spot for the two. She had walked in, carefully scanning the place for Dualscar and quickly found him. A wide grin had set itself upon her face as she stood behind him and placed her hands around his eyes, obscuring his vision. “You didn’t miss me too much, now did you?”

lovvemedead: He had by that time become more than a little grumpy after waiting so long for her…but that partly disappeared when he heard her voice. Partly. "No. Not too much. Though I was startin' to wwonder if you wwould showw." There was an edge to his voice, but a smile on his lips. He brought his hands up to hers, pulling them down and spinning around on his barstool to look at her. The smile only grew, and he pulled her down into his lap, burying his face in her neck. "So howw long do I havve you for this time, my dear..?"

themadcorsair: She laughed as she was pulled into his lap. “Mmm, for however long you stay here, darlin’. 8ut if anything happens I must take my leave.” Her eyes scanned the crowd, not letting her guard down. “Though I must say that I’m surprised no one has started a fight with you yet.” She leaned closer to him. “You don’t exactly scream ‘wanted criminal’, and we know who’s who around these parts.” She snickered. “I’d 8e careful.”

lovvemedead: "Your concern for me is charmin', really. But I can handle myself among your riff raff. And it isn't as if there are not sea dwwellers in your mist already. I can blend in wwhen I wwant to. " He shifted and rested his chin on her shoulder…there was something both strange and peaceful about being able to hold her without fear of some sort of attack. Not that he completely disliked that, but it was a pleasant change. "So, you'vve come back to me. I wwasn't completely expectin' it. Noww I hardly knoww wwhat to do wwith you noww that you're here!" He laughed heartily, but it was the truth.

themadcorsair: “You should put more faith in me Dualscar.” She chuckled. “After all, I do try to 8e a woman of my word.” Her eyes had flickered back up to the crowd, becoming slightly paranoid. “Well if you don’t know, then we’ll just have to go with my plan.” She smiled and looked back at him. “That’s if you’re in the mood for walking a 8it.” She then stood up and grabbed his hand, pulling him along and out of the bar. She’d take him to a part of the shoreline where she sometimes would pull her ship in, though it was quite a ways from the port city.

lovvemedead: "Wwalkin' might honestly be preferred. Particularly awway from the crowwd." He wanted to be alone with her right now, especially while he decided what direction to take next. He let her slip from his lap, and then made his way to the door, holding it for her. He could be gentlemanly when he wanted to be. As they walked, he glanced at her, a serious look on his face. "You realize, there are only twwo options for us. You join my wworld…or I join your wworld. This wwon't wwork unless one of us relents."

themadcorsair: Her steps faltered as he brought up the topic. “I know…” Lightly, she squeezed his hand. “Perhaps we should save this discussion once we are in privacy.” For the rest of the way she didn’t bother to say a word to him.

Her pace slowed and came to a halt once they were at the spot. Releasing his hand she walked over to a large boulder and sat on it, staring out to sea. After a few moments, she stole a glance over at Dualscar. “8esides, I have already told you that I would join you.” By her side were smaller rocks and she picked up one, chucking it into the ocean. She didn’t want to talk about it, though she knew that she couldn’t avoid it.

lovvemedead: He watched the scenery as they walked, trying to focus on the waves of the sea rather than the seriousness of this situation. When they finally reached the spot, he climbed up onto the bolder beside her. "…You could join me. And be tied to royal ambitions. Which are not entirely a bad thing, but also not entirely good…" He looked to the sea, not particularly liking admitting such a fact. With the Empress's focus on foreign conquest, it was getting harder to defend her. "The other option is I become an outlaww wwith you. I imagine I can pull it off…more than you could pull off bein' a proper 'lady of the court'."

themadcorsair: “Not entirely good?” She raised an eyebrow. “I’m surprised you’re saying an idea such as that.” He was right about the last part. She knew she wouldn’t be able to stay in the royal court long, for the sea would always call her home. “If you do plan on going forth with this, then there are rules you need to 8e enlightened of, 8efore you, ah… ‘Go on account.’” She couldn’t help but let out a small snicker. “… 8ut could you do it?” She leaned closer to him. “Could you, the gr8 Orphaner, a8andon your duties and loyalty to the Empress and her Empire? 8ecause if you do...” She was extremely close to his face now. “There’s no such thing as turning 8ack.” Quickly returning to her previous position, she looked at him out of the side of her eye. She wasn’t going to make this easy for him, and she never did let anyone take an easy route. “8ut I do suppose you already know this.”

lovvemedead: He frowned and looked at the ocean, not wanting to meet her eye as he considered her words. In some ways, he wished they could just ignore everything and not have this conversation for another sweep. But he knew that they would never be able to last that long. With a sigh, he finally spoke. "I lovve the ocean more than I lovve her." He finally said, before reaching out to take her hand into his. "I could givve up her, but I couldn't givve up the sea. So it only makes sense for us to make the choice that wwould keep us both wwhere wwe belong." Still, that didn't make it any easier for him, and he was not yet totally at ease with the idea. "So wwhat are these so called things I should knoww before I take the plunge?"

themadcorsair: Her eyes moved from him down to their now intertwined hands. “Mm, very well…” With her other hand she reached up to the other side of his face and turned his head to look at her. “Though it seems as if you’re not confident in your answer.” She chuckled at his question and removed her hands. “Why the Pir8 Code of course.” A sly smirk spread across her face. “Yes, even we have rules to o8ey. Though I must admit, a personal favorite of mine is, ‘Any who diso8ey the Code shall 8e marooned on a deserted island with only a pistol loaded with one shot.’” Her grin grew wider as she moved in front of him. “Do you have an idea why they only get one shot?” She tilted her head up slightly and slowly raised her hand which was formed in the shape of a gun, and placed it under her jaw. “8ecause after some time, that gun starts getting very appealing until… ” Her hand drifted up to her temple. “8ang.” She cocked her head on cue and burst into a fit of laughter.

Only after calming down did she continue. “Mm, 8ut that’s only one rule. There are many others.” She placed her hands on his thighs. “There’s the declar8tion of parlay, which allows one temporary protection if captured 8y an enemy until negoti8tions are fulfilled, the phrase ‘He who falls 8ehind shall 8e left 8ehind.’, the compens8tion for lost appendages...” She then clapped her hands together at the thought of several others. “Oh yes, there’s the penalty for theft which is to 8e marooned or shot. And if a quarrel happens to come 8etween two pir8s, it shall 8e resolved on shore with the weapons chosen 8y the captain.” She couldn’t help but to laugh again at her already longwinded speech. “Tired of me talking yet, Dualscar?” She didn’t wait for him to reply. “Of course not, why would you ever 8e tired of meeeeeeee.” She threw her arms around his shoulders and gave him a wink. “Do you want me to continue?”

lovvemedead: He listened to her with a serious expression on his face. It was hard to tell how much he was actually taking in and taking to heart, and how much he was just listening to, in one ear and out the other. But he did not laugh or falter. "You pirates are not much different than regular old sailors. More about yourselvves, of course, but you are still sailors at heart. And that, my lovve…" He tilted her chin towards him. "That is exactly wwhat I am…" He stole a kiss from her lips, it was still so strange, touching her with all the affections of a red lover, after so long as black. And he was still not convinced that she desired him as much as he desired her. However, he had always been willing to settle for whatever he could get. If he had her right now, it was enough. "Tell me then…wwhat is done wwhen a captain takes her matesprit? Does he need to fight for your hand?" He smirked, and kissed the tips of her fingers.

themadcorsair: “Mm, you might have to prove yourself…” She didn’t bother finishing her sentence to mention the last time he was on her ship. “You’ll challenge me to a sword fight, and if you win you can keep me as your m8sprit…” She paused for a moment and a wide grin appeared as she thought of and idea. “Why not have a small competition 8etween us on the side also? Let us see who can plunder the most items of value in a certain span of time, shall we? Winner takes all the loot, including one thing they want to do to the other. And they can’t refuse what the other says.” She gave him another wink and laughed. “If f8 allows it and you win, you can have your way with me.” She pressed a finger against his chest while her other hand reached back to the hilt of her sword. “And what do you say if I were to win?”

lovvemedead: "If you wwere to wwin, you could havve your owwn wway with me…" He said with a grin on his lips. "But really noww, is it fair to make me compete for your hand in tasks that I have had no experience with? Nothing is fair in that…perhaps I shall forgo the plundering and just seize the booty that I wwish for…" And with a mischievous look on his face, he grabbed her and threw her over his shoulder, standing up and walking to the edge of the boulder. It was so tempting to throw her in…but he didn't. Instead, he pulled her back down into his arms and kissed her. "God fuckin curse you, wwoman. I lovve you too damn much."

themadcorsair: “Well, you certainly have to start somewh-.” Unable to finish her sentence she yelped as she was tossed onto his shoulder. “Dualscar! Put me down this instant!” She screamed at him as she pounded on his back. “Dualscar! Don’t you dare even think a8out throwing me into the water! Dualscar! Are you even listening to a word I’m say-” She was cut off once again by his lips covering hers. She huffed as she felt a cerulean flare working its way into her cheeks. “Now isn’t that sweet.” With a mischievous smile she grabbed him by the shoulders and pulled him in for another kiss. It was her idea to shove him into the water below since they were so close to the edge. It didn’t exactly work the way she had planned. Though, she did succeed in having him end up in the water below, but ended up accidentally losing her footing and falling in along with him.

lovvemedead: He hit the water with a laugh, swimming over to her like some kind of shark seeking his prey. There was no way she could out swim him and both of them knew it. With another laugh, he grabbed her again, hands wandering across her body, burying his face in the wet mass of hair against her neck. He seemed content, particularly by the fact that she was at his mercy for the moment. "You may be a pirate, but I wwas born to be in the sea. Out here, I'm the master…" He had been treating her so affectionately, so utterly red, that when he dove under the water, arms locked around her tightly, it was a sharp reminder that there was still a blackness to his feelings for her. He eventually surfaced, but only when she was absolutely fighting for air.

themadcorsair: She couldn’t keep back the laughter that surfaced when she saw him swimming over to her in such a manner. She didn’t even bother to try to swim away. A smile crept onto her face as his hands wandered. “I 8elieve you mean the master of nothing.” Her snicker was cut short. Being caught completely unprepared for what he did next, she rushed to take a short breath of air before being drug underwater with him. Resurfacing she gasped for air, and turned to face him, quickly moving to dig her nails into his collarbone and to clamp down on his lower lip. Running her tongue over her own she pushed away from him and slowly began swimming backwards. “So you want to play those games now?” A devilish smile made a quick appearance. “I’d 8e a8solutly delighted to.”

lovvemedead: There was blood on his lip now where she had bitten him. The sting was a welcome sensation, and he brushed the purple blood off with a flick of his thumb. "These havve alwways been our games, Spin. Noww they are just a bit more…interestin'." He too wore a devilish smile, and he swam forward, closing in on her. "I wwould lovve to make you scream my name in the sea, just like this…but I fear it wwould be too easy. You are just a mere land dwweller right noww…you couldn't evver hope to ovver powwer me…." He reached out and lightly stroked her cheek. "But I am curious if you havve any tricks up your sleevve right now. Or do you plan to appeal to my pinker feelings for you to savve yourself?"

themadcorsair: Quietly laughing to herself she closed the gap that was left between them. “Mm, couldn’t overpower you, you say?” She snickered once again. “Must I remind you of other times where I 8ested you?” Her tongue skimmed over where she bit him, and once again she slowly started swimming backwards. “Now why on Alternia would I ever want to do that?” She gave him a sly smile and a wink before she dunked his head under the water, though she knew it wouldn’t bother him, after all he was a sea dweller. Immediately after she made a dash for the shallows, and if she could reach it before he caught her, the shore.

lovvemedead: When she ducked him under, he did not come up. Instead he swam underwater, extremely tempted to pop up under her skirts. But he decided not to be quite so naughty, and instead came up beneath her so that her legs were on his shoulders. Being in the more shallow water now, he stood, holding her on his shoulders as if she were merely a wriggler. He looked up at her and laughed. "You are a like a beautiful, poisonous fish, my dear. Lovvely to look at, deadly to possess…yet I am foolish enough to try." He began to walk up to the shoreline, still carrying her on his shoulders.

themadcorsair: She almost fell back into the water when her popped up from underneath her, not expecting him to appear from there. “Mm, and to you, my love. You are the thorn in my side.” She burst into a fit laughter. Once reaching shore she looked down at him. “Ready to fight for my hand? Or are you afraid of losing?” She smirked at him and shimmied off of his shoulders. Once hitting the ground she pulled out her sword and walked around him, keeping the point close to him as she did so.

lovvemedead: "I wwon't lose, not for somethin' this important…" he said with a sly grin, as he reached down into a leather pouch on the side of his belt. Slowly he pulled out a pistol. It was not his weapon of choice, normally, and one this small, though still made for underwater sport, was not as powerful as the sort of guns and rifles he usually used. Still, it would do its job now, as he lifted it and aimed it right at her head, the hints of a smirk on his lips. But his eyes were serious. He meant business.

themadcorsair: Once she saw the pistol she wanted to scream at him for how unfair it was. She herself would have pulled out her own pistol, but the gunpowder was waterlogged since it took a trip in the water with her. A sarcastic smile was all that he would get from her along with the slight movement of her blade tilting towards his face. “Pull it. I dare you to.” Even with a gun pointed straight at her head she still laughed. “You wouldn’t do it. You don’t have the nerve.”

lovvemedead: She was a tough as nails bitch…and he loved her for it. He loved every last inch of her. But with that love was indeed mixed hate. At her words, he did not bat an eyelash. He simply lowered his aim to her left leg, and fired. He was a sharp shooter and he knew exactly how to aim. The bullet left a nasty graze wound on her inner thigh, enough to be painful and slightly slow her down, but not enough to do any serious damage. "I havve plenty of nervve, just as you had the nervve to wwhip me. Don't test me…." And with that, he slipped in front of her, kneeling to lift her skirts, and with an evil grin, licked at the blue blood of her wound.

themadcorsair: Her body cringed with the rush of pain that had shot up from her leg and the sword she held fell to the ground. “8astard.” She breathed in sharply as his tongue ran over the stinging wound. Before he could do anything else, she grabbed a handful of his hair and yanked his head back so he looked up at her. “Don’t test me either.” With that said, she shoved him down to the ground with her other leg. “Hasn’t anyone told you not to toy with things that will kill you?” Straddling him, she wrestled the pistol from his grasp and tossed it far enough away so he couldn’t reach it. “Now… Where was I? Oh yes, I remem8er.” She gave him a malicious grin before tearing open his shirt. While digging her nails into his stomach she leaned over him and nipped at his fin.

lovvemedead: This was very much like the relationship with her he was used to, the constant hate and blood. But despite it all, it was different too…She would not leave him, she could fall asleep peacefully in his bed instead of feeling like she had to chain him there. "Careful wwith the fuckin' fins, they're sensitivve." He muttered, his hands running over the curves of her hips. "And lovve, sex on the beach is nevver comfortable. If you are lookin' for that, wwell… perhaps wwe should check into a room and not come out until you're ready to make me a pirate." He smirked.

themadcorsair: “I supposed that’s too 8ad.” She ran her tongue over it, grinning wildly, taking a glance at his face to see his reaction. “You’re never any fun. Do you know that? 8ut either way I just want to play.” She removed her nails from him and rested them on his shoulder. “And what if I don’t deem you worthy of 8ecoming one? After all, we should o8serve who is currently on the 8ottom as of the moment.” Chuckling as she nuzzled his neck, she continued speaking. “8esides, the city is soooooooo far away and I’m not exactly in the mood for walking.”

lovvemedead: "Spin, I'm only dowwn here because I like the view." He said with a grin, putting his arms behind his head and looking up at her… more specifically, at her breasts. "You really do havve one of the nicest racks in Alternia." He sniggered and leaned up to press his mouth to her own, kissing her softly. "You realize evven if you didn't accept me as a pirate, I would still followw you to the ends of the planet. It's futile…" He smirked and stroked her cheek.

themadcorsair: “How crude." She would have laughed but she was interrupted by lips meeting her own, and while kissing him her hands moved to the first button of her overcoat. “Perhaps you would like to see more, yes?” With a sly smile she undid the first three buttons and pulled back the fabric, exposing much of her chest. Then taking him by the horns, she shoved his face into her cleavage. “To the ends of Alternia? Don’t make me test you on that love.”

lovvemedead: He wasn't exactly about to complain about being shoved in her cleavage…it was more than welcome. Nuzzling his face there contentedly, his arms slipped about her possessively. She was gorgeous, and all his…or so he hoped. "…I'd rather you didn't test me. Unless it wwas in bed. That might be enjoyable." Lifting his head he looked to her. "I hope you realize the gravvity of my leavvin' my post to followw you as an outlaww. It means I am givving up all claims to my royal blood."

themadcorsair: “You’re so persistent a8out taking me to 8ed… Perhaps I will comply with l8ter if I am in the correct mindset.” On a more serious note, she knew how much he cared about his royal ties and his reputation. “I must admit that I have my dou8ts whether would go through with it completely. You’re very much so starting your life over… but I do 8elieve you have realized that already.” She frowned slightly. Shifting away from him, she buttoned her coat back up and stood up. “If you are so certain on your decision then there isn’t a reason to stay here for much longer discussing it… Unless you don’t wish to leave yet.”

lovvemedead: He stopped and looked out over the sea…Being with her was really the only way he was going to be able to keep this view. If he stayed at the Empress's side, he would be in space for most of his life. He shook his head. That was not for him. Leaning over he took her hand into his and squeezed it. "I wwill gladly leavve, but only with the promise that you shall stay at my side until death do us part." He gave her a mischievous smirk. "Which may or may not be by each other's hand."

themadcorsair: “Even after my dying 8reath, I will remain 8y your side.” She smiled and gave him quick kiss on the cheek. Then, chuckling she pulled on the collar of his shirt. “In that case, if I go then you go.” One he had gotten up from his spot she walked beside him in the direction of the city. “So how loyal is your crew to you?” She looked over at him and gave him a wink. “Cause if they aren’t very, you’re going to need a new crew.” She paused for a moment. “Unless you would rather prefer 8eing my firstm8…”

lovvemedead: "My creww…" He shook his head. "Many are loyal to me. But I wwould nevver ask another to become an outlaww. Wwhat I do wwith my life is one thing…but I wwon't change the course of theirs." He grimaced a bit. "I hope you realize that there are few trolls I am wwillin' to take orders from…Howwevver…I'll be your first mate." He smiled at her a bit…he was more than a little reluctant. But this was a jump he was willing to make.

themadcorsair: She gave him a smile in return and slung her arms behind her head. “This will 8e the first time I’ve offered the position… I don’t exactly enjoy having to share power with anyone.” She took a glance over in his direction. “Though, I do suppose you’ll 8e 8earing much of the 8urdens that rest upon my shoulders.” She paused for a moment before continuing and returning her arms back down to her sides. “I trust you’ll perform your duties to the 8est of your a8ilities...” Taking a step in front of him she gave him a wicked smile. “Or you just may find yourself on an island. Her mind then went to the thought of explaining the new addition to the crew, though she knew they’d be smart and not comment. “I’ll give you until the dawn of tomorrow to change your mind if you wish.”
