Cursed (18+)

Aff. with Isola Radiale

[thescrpent]

Sinbad (6'1") original character

captain oh captain. The best pirate of them all. (His own claim)

Would rizz all the adults.

Actually, a sea serpent who was supposed to be a god, but got cursed to turn into a human.

The other gods hate him cause he was loved by humans. (He has no memory of his past)

a gentleman.

Dont get fooled by his beauty, cause he would 100% throw you in the ocean, if he finds you to be annoying.

stole a ship from the gods so he can cross dimensions.

once, he drowned a bunch of sailors because he was bored.

Stole his name from actual sinbad and ate the guy. True story.

[thescrpent]

Sinbad voice is just Pedro Pascal. Cause I want a sexy man to voice my sexy oc.

[thescrpent]

The expression she gave was priceless, he knew how 'annoying' he could get to catch attention from strangers. Can't blame him when he felt a bit home sick, and to find a fellow pirate was like finding a jewel in the bottom of the sea.

Sinbad placed his head against the palm of his hand, waiting for her to either take the bait or push him aside. It seems his charm did worked when she replied with a redundant sigh, it would be easy to get under her skin if she was going to be dismissive. "Now, why would I even think about using my hand??" He held up both of them to reassure her, but the glimpse of his own mischief gaze say so otherwise. Not that he was an awful creature who would touch anyone willingly. Not without someone's consent.

"Of course, as a gentleman pirate. I swear on my own life, I won't do anything that would make you feel uncomfortable." More than likely would tease her at best.

"You have my word. Now..." His hand reached over to the empty beer bottle he just finished, "A game of truth or dare as I spin this bottle."

[stellatiratore]

Rennie sighed again, letting Sinbad carry on before her. She knew something in her gut said this would be a foolish endeavor, but oh well. Prices to pay and all that as her mother said.

Her eyes flickered to the bottle in the other's hand, an eyebrow arching as they did so. "Ah, that kind of truth or dare, hm? Well, at least it's not passing the phrase back and forth. I'm in. Then we get drinks?"

It wasn't like drinking was her usual go to, but with others of her vocation, it wasn't a bad thing to start.

[thescrpent]

"whos to say we won't pass stories and such??" His grin never fades, kept his charm up like a snake he was. "The spinning of the bottle is more for excitement. I would even dare you to buy me a drink, have you thought about that??" While it was his own playful demeanor, but there's a silent challenge in his words.

Sinbad hand places the bottle down on the table, laying it down as he counted, "one, two, and three." The wrist flicks the bottle, letting it twirl around and soon enough the objects stops in front of him. She might be lucky this time around as he smirked.

"Ah. A bad luck for me. I was honestly daring for you to give me that drink." He winked, grinning even wider, "Truth. Hit me with what you go, my fellow sea adventurer."

[thescrpent]

His handsome smile reached his lips at the stranger's compliment, he couldnt help but chuckle, voice deep with amusement. "Ah. I'm merely observing. I have never partake in the activity before, would rather learn from experience of seeing than making myself a fool, you know??"

Sinbad's gaze followed the individual's movement, seeing the handsome face and the rather rosy cheek to show the other seemed to be enjoying this party.

"An eggnog?? So its made of an egg??" He looks at the drink in hand, a small sip to his lips. The flavor was not what he had expected, he thought it was alcohol. "Its a bit sweet, never taste something like this before. You seemed to know your way around, maybe you could be my guide in this... party."

[kleinstar]

" Huh? " Eiden tilts, " oh nah, I'm just doing the bar crawl quest... or was. But then eggnog and bunch of other drinks... "

The snowtide mojitos weren't bad but it seemed like a waste just leaving it at that... Seasonal drinks were nice and he hadn't even tried mulled wine yet--

" Huuh... I think so? " he says, his words slowing from the thought, " yeah, it does! You like it? "

" Obviously I'm happy to have handsome company. "

[thescrpent]

"I cant thank you enough for your hospitality, my dear handsome stranger. I am still learning about this world I have forced to be part of, I am a pirate where I came from. A man of sea who is on an adventure, venturing into the unknown. And staying in one spot doest tend to make you bit... dull." After all, he wanted to be out there, not sitting around with nothing to do.

"although the place requires me to get a... job. I dont have skills besides from plundering and well... killing. And sometimes, making love to any curious people. And yes, the drink itself is quite refreshing." He pauses before laughing to himself, shaking his head, "ah, where are my manners?? Thank you for listening to my rambling, please. Call me Sinbad."

[boulderfortress]

"Hmmm."

The choices of a society where luxury is cheap, is everything wrong , could go wrong with nobles. Well aware at this point of how unhealthy sugar is, the variety of choices and how cheap the drinks are from the vending machine forces him to make a choice. a important choice...

what drink to get from the machine.

Hmmm...@thescrpent

[thescrpent]

"Ah. Hard at work, my dear gentleman??"

These machines was not something Sinbad became close to. It was hard to even fathom about them, things that could give you refreshing drinks or food. That's something out of a dream, and here he was, facing the object. It seems the other was not too different, judging by their clothes..

"I understand your curiosity in this... machine. I too was the same, although I have never tried it before. How about we try it together?? I would usually go by the pictures of that's on the bottle itself." He points at one that seemed to resemble a lemon. "Like this lemon drink. What do you say? What to embark on this adventure together?" He winks.

[thescrpent]

"Now, now. There is no need for that, miss." Sinbad raises his hand up, as if trying to stop her for further the process of leaving. "This is your place you've came to train. No need to worry over someone like me, I am more than happy to look from afar and let you continue."

A smile reached his lips, reassuring the stranger as he stood against the tree, his arms crossed over his chest. Looking casual. "But I must say, you look astonishing when you fight. I felt like I was watching a ballet. You took once slice against that tree and it falls apart, I could see you've been training for a long time."

[robustdragonheart]

"It's the least I can do after so long. If I let myself get complacent for too long then I'll be at a disadvantage in performing my duties." Or even worse then that defending herself. There were other servants here that stuck close to Master but Mélusine was just one person. One who got into trouble far more often then others.

"The average individual shouldn't even be able to see me slice down the tree. Goes to show I have to keep perfecting myself again till I'm back to my former self." Hopefully without cutting down the entire forest or at least finding an alternative target.

"The compliment is appreciated though. But I think your the first time to compare my fighting to ballet dancing."

[thescrpent]

"I understand your reasoning, a sword only sharpens more when used, but also, you need to look out for yourself, yes?? Enjoying your time in this space, until you are required to return." Sinbad hummed, not that he knew when they'll return. With the way she dressed, the stranger looked much like a dancer. The way she moved as if prancing in the middle of flowers.

"I'm not average individual." He smirks, looking a bit smuggled, "i guess, even if my powers were taken from me, the curse that was put upon me by the gods still lingers." He explained, not much of his past was remaining, he still had many works to do if he wanted it back.

"There is beauty in fighting, no? Dancing can be a form of battle, when one could utilize it to their own. It could be deadliest of them all, if you think about it." He chuckled, slowly lifting himself away from the tree before taking a bow.

"Now, Where are my manners?? I was so thrilled to speak that I forgot to introduce myself. Please, call me Sinbad."

[thescrpent]

"I am delighted to be sharing the same house as a beautiful maiden." The pirate announces as his gaze lands on the furniture and scenery of their shared house. The captain walked in with his arms wide open, his voice blooming with merth as if asking for all attention.

"I like how you decorated the house, if you dont mind me asking. Which of these room belong to me?"

        ❝ i'm certain many from my home would have many ways of describing me, ❞    some cruel and negative, others with reverence or admiration.   she's seated on a chair, curled up comfortably with an occasional flick of her tail.    ❝ maiden feels a bit delicate of a term, but i'll gladly accept a compliment.  thank you. ❞  she turns her head to look at each of the doors, moving her body to turn and look behind herself.  her own room could be considered between the other two bedrooms ; hers bordered this new roommate's.

         ❝ your room is  riiiiight  over there.  closest to the front and sharing a wall with mine, lucky you. ❞   she points a carefully manicured finger at one of the doors, then turns back in her seat and leans forward, feet planted firmly.  it was rare she actually met any roommates.  she wasn't one to seek out others, but it was better to know who she was sharing a living space with.   ❝ you're not  loud,  are you ?  my sleep schedule can be unique to some ; i am nocturnal and prefer my sleep during the day.  i pray you keep that in mind.   also, perhaps  ..  can you cook ? ❞   she wasn't skilled in the kitchen despite her love of food.  how typical of someone with traits similar to a feline.

[thescrpent]

"ah. My apologies, I am used to speaking as such. I have forgotten my own manner." He took a bow at her, a gentleman's way of his own apologies, "I thank you for accepting it as a compliment, I had no Ill intentions. If you dont mind my bold question, what do you do in your world?? Knowing that I have never seen your kind before, I am curious. This place... this... city as the people call it. Is vast different than my own. As you can tell from the way I speak and my attire, I am a pirate." Not that it was noticeable, he tries to dress elegant as possible, to look stylish and handsome.

As Sinbad's gaze traveled to the room she pointed at, he gentleman pirate slowly walks over to see the room he was going to occupy. It was simple, a one bed and some space to put whatever necessities they needed. "Yes, lucky me. I can learn more about this place from you. A friendship perhaps?" He slowly walks over to the couch to extend his hand out, giving her his signature bright smile. "Sinbad, pleasure to be your acquaintance. And no worries, im not loud, nor would I disturb you. More than likely be venturing out in the world. And sadly, my cooking is limited as I do have a cook on my ship. The best I could do is make some soups and a meat pie."

[thescrpent]

"A formal royal? Now thats interesting, but I won't pry it, of course, That is your secret to keep. But I must say, you have keen eyes of investigation skills, to know what i do for a living. Are you sure you're not a skilled magic welder?" He teased, but there is no need to pick on someone he just met... yet.

"Apologies, I couldnt help myself. You see, im new to this place, anr trying to figure it out. All these strange devices seemed to make me feel a bit nauseous."

[nohrsrose]

"Oh I can use magic don't worry. However that's not related to how I figured it out." More just plenty of life events contributing to that "investigation skills" he spoke of. After all Camilla's retainers were a strange girl who barely spoke about one's past and an assassin who tried to kill her. A pirate is not that farfetched on the royal's list...

"Though I do feel awfully bad that another poor individual managed to end up here. The technology here took me the better half of two years to finally catch up on. And even then I don't think I've gotten the full grasp just yet..."

[thescrpent]

"I see. Sorry for my rambling questions, Its been a while since ive spoke with someone who had magic for an ability. You see, I travel to many dimensions and well... not in good terms with folks." He chuckled as if being chase by gods were a fun little hide and seek. "I suppose I was curious and I couldnt help myself."

Upon her comment, sinbad couldnt help but hum, "thank you for the concern. Im pretty used to this... adventure. Although mine was worse than getting my abilities stealed." He chuckled.

[kleinstar]

ACTIVITY: DRINK AND BE MERRY!

@thescrpent

" Are you taking part too? "

Eiden meets the gaze of the stranger all jovial and cheerful. If it had just been the designated drinks he'd probably be a little less tipsy but guess it's fine since he's still in pretty nice condition.

" The seasonal drinks all look good what's up with that... "

The guy's handsome as hell so of course he'll strike a conversation.

" The eggnog's crazy good too... I've got to come here again! Plus I've got handsome company eh? Did I ask you if you were taking part yet?"

[thescrpent]

His handsome smile reached his lips at the stranger's compliment, he couldnt help but chuckle, voice deep with amusement. "Ah. I'm merely observing. I have never partake in the activity before, would rather learn from experience of seeing than making myself a fool, you know??"

Sinbad's gaze followed the individual's movement, seeing the handsome face and the rather rosy cheek to show the other seemed to be enjoying this party.

"Ah, the con of being a first timer in the city. I understand what you mean, ma'am. I too dont have any attires that fits the ball, since we both cant attend, how about a place called 'jazz cafe', they seemed to be open for an open night dances."

[libratio]

"I guess, that i won't mind. Nothing's wrong on your idea."

[thescrpent]

"I am glad I could be of help. Its rather dull without meeting someone." The captain comments, his hands reaches out for her to take.

"Shall we??"

The lively noise of jazz blared inside the café, sounds of laughter and chatting escapes the night as the fellow people seemed to be mingling on their own. Between all of them, sinbad stood, casting a excited grin to his features.

"Have you ever danced?" He spoke, out of curiosity of the lady, "and if you did, was it fast pace or slow? I was rather curious, wanting to know how you would like our dance to go."

[thescrpent]

"I'm not sure if that's a posture of a man who is disappointed or amused." The captain casually spoke, his gaze lands on the particular display of the stranger with a mask on. Sinbad was nursing his fine wine, a mischievous grin matching his expression.

His boot tapping against the floor as he walked over, standing just a shy away from the man's reach. "How about a dance to start your day??? I'm sure you're here for an... adventure, no??" He held his hand out, wondering if they'll take it.

[scholarking]

❝ And if I were to say both? ❞ amused in the way that someone he knows has managed to pull this together in such a foreign place after what seems a short time -- disappointed in that he had found out the other was here through this lavish party, to say the least.

but when the hand is held out, he glances down at it as if in thought before taking it. ❝ Wrong. I was here to observe. But there are multiple ways that someone can do just that than being a distant wallflower, ❞ he replies, glass clinking as he puts it to the wayside. well, that was one mystery that would remain for the time being.

[thescrpent]

"Ah. Im guessing its someone you know??" It's an observation of his own, not that he knew fully about the relationship the host had with this individual. Unless the man was always divided between two halves of personalities, which amused the captain more than he could let on. He does like details of dramas.

"Why not enjoy the night with someone new? An Observations can tend to get rather... tedious. Makes you stiff, like a statue of sort." The last sentence was a tease, due to the mask they wore, no ill intentions. Wanted to relax the individual into being more open. If that was possible. Sinbad graciously took the hand, leading them to a more secure corner of the ball room, a privacy he could give.

"Is this your first dance?? I hope you don't mind if I lead~."

[scholarking]

DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE PLASTER HEAD. that isn't a statue for decoration in the host's place but, rather, a living, breathing person. not only that, but he has a drink in hand. how is he even going to drink that thing with that headpiece? maybe you should ask him and find out as he observes everything.

[thescrpent]

the thing he gonna wear is just his everyday clothes, he dont have money to buy anything at the moment. The dust he got needs to be spared for and honestly thinking about stealing from ya'll.

A pirate gotta do what pirate gotta do.

[robustdragonheart]

"I must admit I didn't think anyone else would come out this far out into the forest just to "go on a little trip"." Still it wasn't like Mélusine was being subtle either. A lone young girl with weapons by her side and massive tree collapsed right beside, as if a knife sliced right through it without any effort. Though her face didn't try to hide that anyone else could've performed such a feat in the slightest.

"This is usually where I come out to train alone. To avoid potentially harming anyone else in the districts. If I disturbed your peace I take myself elsewhere."

"Now, now. There is no need for that, miss." Sinbad raises his hand up, as if trying to stop her for further the process of leaving. "This is your place you've came to train. No need to worry over someone like me, I am more than happy to look from afar and let you continue."

"Looks like i may be unable to attend on this 'Wintertide' thing... I can't afford a dress for that occasion."
