Joaquin found himself sharing in the other's good humour as he returned the kiss with a laugh, ever aware of Thalel's aquamarine eyes on him. He smirked. The naive Narulieran might even learn something new this night. "Ah, if only clothing and belongings weren't an issue, I'd have liked to attempt it in midair. Unfortunately, missing possessions would pose far too great an inconvenience, so I suppose I shall fairly allow the one being propositioned to make this decision?"" he suggested naughtily, letting himself be carried.

[[...I was in a rush, and that was a horrible mistake on my part, Iro. 'They don't..?' Fix it when you see it. Lack of sleep has certainly addled my brain. x__x]]

Fia heard Joaquin's suggestion and started imagining how that would work... She shivered at the strange thought and shook her head. This was seriously getting nowhere... but she had nothing better to do. She filled another mug with beer and began drinking again. "Whenever you're satisfied, we can start leaving." She attempted to be heard once more, half-knowing that she would be ignored.

Harren smiled devilishly at Joaquin's insinuation.
"Oh yes, that would be most entertaining, but I suppose we shouldn't scar these poor humans any more than need be..."
Harren looked about himself, assessing his possessions. He owned all of one shirt and a pair of pants. Harren looked back into the vampire's deep teal eyes.
"I seem to have a lack of personal affects, so point out anything you don't want to lose and I'll bring it with us."
Harren smiled over at Fia.
"I assume this fine establishment has the furnishings for an overnight stay, and as the barkeep is... well... dead, We will be taking advantage of them."
Harren shifted Joaquin's weight and stole another kiss, before looking again at Fia.
"You may start ahead of us if you wish, I do have the ability to not only track, but fly as well."
Harren grinned broadly and flapped his expansive wings for effect, knocking over a few glasses of ale in the process.

(I've changed my mind, harren is soooo much more suited to be the demon of pride XD but I can't change now...)

Fia shrugged. "Alright fine, but I don't want to go alone." Her eyes turned to the almost forgotten sea elf, "You there. Are you going to stay and watch them tango tonight, or would you like to start for the temple?"

[[How long will it be for Iro's post?]]

[[That depends on a number of factors, including Iro's inspiration level and whether or not I'm online to help with it. :lol: It is also the middle of the night for Iro right now, which means that Iro is asleep and not online, so it'll certainly be at least a few hours. XD"]]

"Most of my personal effects are already with me," Joaquin answered. "I just need to make sure none of them vanish in the meantime." Turning to Thalel, he added, "You are free to go with the lady if you choose, Thalel, although I personally wouldn't mind an audience...or a third participant." His afterthought was laden with invitation even as he met bewildered aquamarine eyes, a hand continuing to toy with silky hair.

Harren shifted Joaquin until he was holding him much like a groom holds a bride as they walk acrss the threshold. As harren passed the ever growing audience he grinned and gave them a wink.

(tasteful fade to black XD)

[[Yes, well, as much as I'd love to write all about Harren and Joaquin passionately fighting for dominance rather violently, I'm sure I'd receive an infraction for cybering. 8DDD Thus, we shall leave it at that. XDDD]]

(the poor room will never be the same, dont even get me started on the bed XD)

[[What bed? To be honest, considering the species involved, I'm not certain the inn being left standing is a guarantee. XD"]]

(XDDD you are so right. well at least we wont get in trouble since the barman is dead.)

[[Meh, if anyone else gives them any shit, they'll just kill him/her too. 8D"]]

[[*mental image of Joaquin and Harren in the inn, shivers* Thanks, now I'm scarred for life guys..]]

(you are oh so welcome *bows*)

[[Pleased to be of service, my lady. XD"]]

Harren pulled his leather pants back on, now in his human form again. By chance he saw his reflection in a piece of broken glass and pulled a comb through his horribly mussed hair. Harren surveyed his surroundings, he was sitting on what was left of the bed, the windows were all broken, and the floor had an immense crack through it, you could even see the tables in the bar below them through it. Harren looked over at Joaquin and grinned.
"Well at least the inn is still standing."
Harren's words were given an ironic edge by the sound of the north section of the building collapsing.
"Well... most of it..."

Joaquin, by now again fully dressed, checked to make sure all his belongings were with him. Thankfully, they were. He casually looked around, surveying their handiwork and marginally impressed that the building had withstood the damage. He was about to say something when he had a presage of disaster as the floor wobbled slightly.

"I think, Harren, you might like to retract your statement completely. This establishment appears to dearly wish to prove you wrong," he said, lifting the boy in a supernaturally swift motion and leaping out the window just an instant before the rest of the building collapsed. Landing gracefully outside, he put the demon down and bowed politely as was befitting of his noble upbringing. "I thank you for the pleasure of your company. Would you care to journey to the shrine with me now? I hear you plan on going."

[[Okay, I can't promise I'll be active for the next 48 hours, since I'll be stuck on planes and in airports, but I can try. Post ahead. XD"]]

Harren grinned widely,
"The pleasure was all mine, wait strike that, I don't think that particular saying is all that appropriate considering how wholeheartedly we both enjoyed ourselves. And of course, I'd love to have your company for as long as possible, we may even be able to catch up to Fia if we hurry."
Harren smiled conspiratorially, he jumped up into the air and released just his wings, he then swooped down and grabbed the vampire by one arm. Harren then smoothly swung Joaquin up and and sat him on his back.
"I'll take the lead in this if you don't mind."

[[Da lady ish back!! But before we conclude your playtime and continue with story, her highness needs her beauty sleep and read through all these montrous pages T.T
Actually I'm lucky to have only a few of those posts of doom. This should take 10-15mins. In short,

Zero stood atop a small hill in the Great Plains,the wind wipping his cloak out behind him as his hand shielded his eyes from the sun."It's entirely too quiet..."the Fallen muttered softly under his breath,his free hand resting over his shoulder on the pommel of one of his greatswords."Feels as though something is amiss in this world."

[[May I ask how did you end up with "jumping in" conclusion, sire? IshidaRyu, either pm me your character profile and wait for approval like a good boy or I'll have to leave my RP +_+;;;
I'm not in mood of spreading eternal bliss or generousity, but seeing you completely ignored (Ok, not completely, but you missed out the rules appreantly!!!) everything I've wrote up on front page, I'm really disappointed... Not to mention deep scar this action will leave in my soul +_+

Now, be a good boy and reread rules, or I'll bite your fallen's head next time my charries encounter him. Oh and believe me I can do miracles in a post even if he's in middle of neverland...]]

[[@luen- No, I don't mind idle ooc chat as long as it's between those barackets.
As you can see I'm upset and it's not about any of you but this isn't the most sincere moment of my day.

Well, good night!(for my timezone) See you all pretty soon....

better not you ishidaryu +_+.... not before you get your character profile up on front page....]]

[=.= I dont know why... but that makes me VERY angry... I keep getting the urge to verbally assassinate him. But seeing as you already scolded him I suppose it would be overkill...]

[[Seeing as I'm quite tired of being bitchy after that two-day stint in the airport, I'm not going to comment on matters of courtesy and reading rules before doing anything.]]

Joaquin smiled, leaning forward to wrap his arms around the demon boy's neck and murmur into his ear as he flew. "It really is a pity we can't attempt it in midair, isn't it..?" the vampire teased lazily.

He heard the other laugh as the shrine came within sight...or at least what was left of it. The shrine seemed to have collapsed to rubble, and the priestesses were all standing outside. On a path through the forest, he spotted Fia and Thalel making their way towards the ruined temple.

"It appears we will arrive before them even," he said as Harren swooped downward to land in the clearing where the remains of the temple had been.

[[I forgot to mention really.... whatever, a good GM can fix all in one single post in blink of an eye ^^]]

Priestesses were standing outside, waiting for arrivals. Strangely, they were standing in front of the former doorway that stood before temple collapsed. They were still wearing same ceremonial robes from the festival, before the assult of beast birds... And a familiar face was sitting on collapsed pieces of the temple, on left side of the enterance, behind troubled priestesses, who were still murmuring prayers and asking goddess' aid. Isis glanced at them then looked away, sighing like she was bored because her duty was sitting on that rock. She remembered a small encunter, -small because it lasted for a short time. She had walked to temple, getting bored sitting in town square eventually. There weren't much excitements that'd keep her occupied for a long time, so she was humoring herself with the "quest" goddess was going give freely to anyone knocks her door. Literally of course...

She walked to temple, broken to pieces, no one at sight. Isis stared at the ruin for a while, then sat at the spot where she was sitting at the moment. Threw her left leg over the other, leaned her elbows on the rock behind her, started looking around, enjoying night and view. Then, from ruins a figure stepped out from doorway, out of thin air it seemed. Isis looked at the stranger, she was wearing a blue gown, golden locks falling her waist, complimenting her magnificent beauty. One could be left speechless at such a sight, but her highness just decided to eye beauty from head to toe. Finally when two blue eyes met, Adorielle, the archangel spoke.

"You're one of the first to come." she stated lightly, examining other woman in the same measuring manner. "Would you not come in?" she asked.

Isis stared a little more on the angel kin, then let out a charming chuckle.

"Nah, I want to see if I can seduce and snatch away some of the volunteers." she smiled with a mischevious charm.

Archangel looked thoughtfully at the woman,apperantly not pleased with her attitude. But she decided to not mendle with the human's business.

"As you wish." she said after a while, turning over her heels she disappeared in the hidden door she came out before.

Isis looked after her, the sight of dancing golden rocks lingered before her eyes for a moment. Thoughtfully her blue eyes turned to sky, enjoying the stars that were more visible now. She wasn't going to attend meeting, that was the decision. But she was going to join party, it wasn't like anyone could forbid her from following them.

One of the priestesses looked up, seeing a creature was approaching; two creatures to be precise. They looked each other as Harren and Joaquin landed in front of them. Finally one stepped ahead, gathering her courage, she was a petite, quite a chubby one with light brown curly hair. She was rubbing her hands quite nervously as she plastered a serene smile.

"Welcome. If you've came with intentions of aiding her grace, please enter from doorway."

It was a spell apperantly, casted by the archangel. Shrine was well hidden from ethereal and mortal eyes, under disguise of an illusion was standing a beautiful shrine dedicated to Sierra. Inside was decorated with flowers, in heart of shrine statue of goddess was standing over a fountain. Moonlight was showering her grace' figurine from the small window on the dome. There in front of the statue archangel was waiting, facing to statue she was waiting silently for arrivals. So then, she would turn around, revealing her charming and legendary features, the fighter in her soul to the eyes coming from her bloodline...

[[yay!!! XD okies, waiting for everyone to gather so adorielle can start lecturing =P]]

Harren gently lifted Joaquin from his back and set him lightly on the ground. Harren looked curiously at the broken temple and saw that something seemed off about it, As he looked closely at the edges he saw them waver slightly, like when one looks through a heat storm in the middle of summer. Harren just smiled, keeping this to himself, and turned to greet Fia and Thalel.

[[I can't even post until Iro does... He didn't even respond when we were still at the pub ;_;]]
