[21:23] so, aftahsim? [21:23] Indeedilydo. [21:23] what about? and where? [21:24] ::Shrugs, no clue:: [21:24] on Coro when she arrives at Regency? [21:24] we could go to a Camelyn worldship or their settlement here, too [21:25] Heh. Maiko would probably wind up offending someone's honor [21:26] aaawesome [21:26] heeeheeee [21:31] so, how does camelyn sound to all? [21:32] Good [21:33] aaaand everyone else...?

Red supergiant star in regency. we're all together for a little liberty leave, and have use of one of their "pvaillions"... colourful tents with vendors and stuff. Like an ever- running tourney... a camelynian mini-mall [21:36] I'll vend for ya'll since my character is nowhere to be found. [21:36] Sorry, I'll vend for ye. [21:36] sure, be a camelynian ^_^ [21:36] Bet I can get the ring around the milk bottles! [21:36] or be a knioght errant trying to win someones' heart or something. that's pretty fun too [21:37] rightg [21:37] grr. [21:37] right. [21:37] *sim start* [21:37] * CoroLCARS changes topic to '=/\= U.S.S.

[21:37] * CoroLCARS sets mode: +m [21:37] <<::facial tic as "knight errant" is mentioned:: Grrr. Mechwarrior Dark Age SUCKS>> [21:37] [21:37] ::wandering around aimlessly:: [21:38] ::Savant appeared on the field with a flicker and flash... Xanadu was close enough that she was able to use its' projection system, just like Alicia could appear at whim. She was dressed to blend in:: [21:38] ::is not dressed to blend in and is probably sticking out like a sore thumb:: [21:39] * Santiago is now known as Gibson [21:39] Vendor>::to Maiko:: Milady! How would thine like to tryst the brew in my humble establishment? [21:40] Hey, babe. [21:41] ... Sorry, you're just not a 'babe', are you? [21:41] ::Savant smiled at Gibson and hooked an arm around his waist:: Good eve, my love. ::a beat:: Is that in the proper tone? These camelyns really give my parser a workout. [21:41] ::smiles:: I suppose I AM a little thirsty... sure. [21:41] ::she smirks a bit:: Depends who you talk to. [21:42] Vendor>::Big smile:: Have a seat, milady. I'll return with our finest. [21:43] ::takes a seat and looks around:: [21:43] I mean, of course, you're worthy of the title, it just doesn't seem to fit. [21:43] Or, uh, verily dost thou wear such a title as one might a crown of lead: well, but not comfortably. [21:43] ::She led the both of them into the array of colourful tents and pageantry:: And what would fit better? [21:44] That can I no better claim to know. [21:44] Vendor>::comes back with a pint of camelyn brew:: Here ye go milady. [21:44] Many thanks... ::raises the pint of brew and takes a cautious sip:: [21:45] ::she smiled a bit more and inhaled deeply, releasing the breath after a moment:: [21:45] Penny for your thoughts. [21:46] ::eyeing Maiko:: How dost ye like it? [21:46] ::the taste not disagreeable:: Good. ::takes a heartier draw on it:: [21:47] ::big smile:: Glad to hear it. An appetizer for ye? [21:47] ::she looked up at the swollen red giant in the sky:: I stretch across clusters of stars, have vast resources at my disposal.. and I still feel like I'm the personal data assistant. [21:48] ::finishes her gulp:: Pretzels? [21:49] At the very least, you are the love of my life. [21:50] ::she looked back down and smiled:: I couldn't do any of this without you, Clarence. [21:50] ::blinks:: I can do that, yes. [21:50] Any of what? [21:50] ::smiles in thanks:: [21:51] ::walks back in and grabs some of those human treats called pretzels. [21:51] ::She gestured up in the air, little holograms of Xanadu and the fleet, and other little incidences of her direction popping into being briefly before disappearing like popped soap bubbles:: Things are getting very tense in the fleet right now, Clarence. [21:53] ::moves closer to her, his arm across her waist:: As egotistical as I am, I don't fool myself that I have any effect on your processing power. [21:55] Oh, but you do! A lot of my processing slices go to you, sweetie. I'm practically obsessed [21:55] ::takes another quaff of her ale:: [21:56] ::looks at her, with that look somewhere between flattery and suspicion of a joke about to be sprung:: Obsessed? [21:56] ::she smirked a little:: whaat? [21:57] <> [21:57] * Parts: Mansky (~JFav04@66-215-164-242.riv-mres.charterpipeline.net) [21:57] You're looking at me like I'm the cat who caught the mouse. [21:57] * Maiko is now known as Farrell_AFK [21:59] Well, you certainly caught me. You're a Venus Mouse Trap. [21:59] ::she laughed a little:: That was incredibly subtle [22:00] I pride myself on my nuanced wit [22:00] And my ability to compare you with the Roman Goddess of love [22:01] ::she grinned:: But I have arms and a head [22:01] So does Venus. Yours are just prettier [22:02] ::her smile widened::: did you do something terribly wrong, or are you just trying to worm yourself into my good books? [22:02] You mean I'm not in them yet? [22:03] Of course you are.. I was going to tell you that you don't ahve to keep trying so hard. [22:04] oh, I see. well, you know, it can't hurt to cement my position. [22:04] ::she pulled him closer to her side:: There's no competition, dear. [22:06] ::moved in close and comfortable:: Actually, it's my way of making love to you. In, you know, public and stuff. I love you with my words, and I touch you with them. [22:07] ::She actually got flushed at the comment and leaned close:: Clarence! [22:09] My devotion to you is as no other. You are Venus, and I, Adonis, have the ego to think I have earned the company of a Goddess. [22:11] ::she laughed quietly, a throaty sound, and leaned back:: Well, my Adonis, you've more than earned my company [22:12] * Quits: Aggie|AFK (aggie@arcee.resnet.tamu.edu) (Quit: ) [22:12] ::touched his lips to her neck, momentarily:: [22:14] ::She lowers her eyes and places a hand on the back of his head:: You're too dear. [22:14] Yeah, I kind of am. [22:15] ::She grinned:: That's the first time you've agreed with me. [22:16] Honestly, I think it's the sun. [22:16] ::she looked up at the red supergiant:: what makes you say that? [22:17] ::whispers in her ear:: When I was young, the first ... encounter I had with a woman was in an old-style photographic darkroom run by her grandfather. Red lights all over. [22:17] ::she gets a broad, sly grin on her face:: ree-eeally? [22:19] This isn't one of those things I spread around a lot. [22:19] * Savant holds up a hand while hiding the other behind her back:: Mum's the word, [22:24] I think, yeah, red light kind of ... gets to me. Viscerally. [22:24] ::she grinned slyly:: I'll have to keep that in mind [22:24] ::he speaks the last word like it tastes good:: [22:27] that sounds as though you're planning on taking advantage of me... [22:27] ::She gets a sort of a "and what are you gonna do about it" look on her face and comments:: and if I was? [22:28] i would merely offer a few other suggestions. [22:28] I could take them under advisement [22:30] well. perhaps i should keep them closer to my chest, and let you find out about them on your own. [22:31] ::she chuckled:: I'm very good at finding things out, you know. [22:32] then i shall, rumplestiltskinlike, allow you to guess. [22:36] ::she glanced about the rather busy pavillion:: I don't think that this is either the time or the place for that sort of inquisition, dear... [22:36] no. [22:37] We'll leave that for later ^_^ [22:37] not that anyone would really know, though, would they? [22:37] These Camelynians have sharp ears, you know... sharper than many might think [22:38] i didn't know that. you're right. [22:40] ::she grinned:: I have to keep up appearances. I'm a whole asteroid, after all. [22:42] Yes, well, as asteroids go, you have a fantastic figure. [22:43] ::she posed:: you think? I'm not too chunky? [22:43] ::his hand, still around her waist, slid up and down, outlining her side by touch:: [22:43] You can't ask me questions like that. [22:44] ::she laughed again:: Sure I can. I like your reaction to them. [22:45] Oh really? [22:46] can't say I mind it [22:47] the way that it makes that vein on the side of my head pop out, or the way that it makes me want to delineate your body with my fingertips? [22:47] The second one. [22:48] yeah, well, i can't say i mind doing it, either. [22:51] ::as he talks, his fingers, seemingly of their own volition, trace the lines of her ribs as they curve around below her shoulder and across her side:: [22:53] it's always interesting to me, how narrow your waist. [22:54] ::she grinned and glanced around serriptitiously:: Oh? [22:54] it's, i don't know. maybe i didn't touch enough people as a child or something, but touching someone is always a surprise. feeling the dimensions of the body, the softness of the flesh. people aren't of cardboard or duranium. [22:57] some parts of your android are, but even it is concealed within something soft to the touch. [22:57] it's reassuring, i think, to realize that not everything is as firm as a console. [22:59] I think you work with machines a liottle too much, dear... [22:59] i think we all do, frankly. [22:59] true, very true... [23:00] is it strange that someone who is technically a machine is having this conversation with me? [23:02] oh, I don't know. Machines are some of my best friends ^_^ But it's nice to talk with the live ones once in awhile [23:02] Hmm.
