Aliquam: La Mansion de Cervantés

Angel lingered behind by the kitchen as Lucien, Moira, and Syed all took off for the pool. He propped an elbow atop the table and leaned his chin into his palm, smiling at them from afar. It was a shame they would be taking off so soon. Compared to the snobs and spoileds the Academy offered, they were just so... different. Down to earth, even. A nice change of pace for once. He could almost consider taking up Moira's offer if it meant being surrounded by these kinds of people.

It wasn't long before Xandra and her escorts made their way downstairs to meet with Angel. Once he heard the clicking of one of their heels, he casually glanced over his shoulder to see who had arrived - before jumping out of his chair, his smiling mouth dropping wide open.

"Que maravilla, you look fantastic, Xandra!" He stuttered some, completely awestricken by just how beautiful the metallurgist looked in her dress. More than that, he was astounded by her sheer natural beauty as well. Compared to the likes of - ugh - Hannah, and all the other scholarly damsels who paint their faces with markers every day, he could almost say he was falling in love with this chick just from her looks alone. Damn, he had scored.

"Ohh Aislin," Angel continued muttering in some foreign language as he blurred passed the trio towards the door. Quickly he changed his tie with one of those hanging in the nearby shoe closets - never know when you have to change last minute like this on dates! And now the two matched colors. <3 "Come on Xandra," he motioned for her to follow as he propped the door open. "I'll take you to the finest restaurant Aliquam has to offer."

Meanwhile by the back porch...



Trixie had no idea what on Ddaear Lucien was so freaked out about. But whatever it was, it looked serious! Maybe Syed farted in the pool? Moira did mention something about farting. Uhh... Trixie quickly downed the rest of her soggy toast and leaned forward, reaching for the summoner who waded his way towards her away from Syed. "Lucy! Lucy! Over here! I can help you out! I can--whoa!"

And then she fell right in and began sputtering and splashing about. Between breaths she yodeled for the others to save her from dying a horrible and soggy death.

I'll post after Kathi :)

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Thanks for all the good lucks and well wishes, everyone. :) I really appreciate them. So long as I keep my head up and stay prudent with money, I'll be all right. Literally can't afford to sit around moping over things all day so at least there's this RP and other hobbies to fall back on at home. ^^

If I don't post tonight, I will in the morn before Pacman's closing post. I'll also have my opening co-gm chapter post done tonight so I can also get that up in the morn as well before I take off for work. Really hope I can meet everyone's expectations on that boat ^^; hahaha

Aliquam: La Mansion de Cervantés - Pool

Despite Simon's hopes of snagging photos of a startled busty blonde, Amy merely watched with a deadpan expression as the pool basically erupted and slathered the two girls with water. Trixie did all the gasping and jumping and yelping enough for the both of them; she only stopped with a deflated sigh once she realized there wasn't any actual cheese anywhere. As the water settled again and Simon was back to snapping photos in the open, Amy's eyes narrowed even further.

CRACK!

A beam of light flashed out of nowhere. The photographer was not only blinded, but was immediately knocked out of the pool and into the tall wooden fence just beyond the nearest edge. The impact wasn't enough to send the wood crashing down, but considering the camera took a direct hit from Amy's light whip (along with the rest of his upper torso), it shattered upon impact. Once Amy retracted her whip back into the gem in her fist, she closed her eyes tight and let out a deep breath, trembling her fist.

Startled a second time, Trixie turned to her older companion. "Hey Ames! You hurt him so bad that his nose is bleeding! Shouldn't you fix it? Ames?" Amy completely ignored her and headed straight for the doors instead. She didn't even bother to wring out her drenched hair or dress. Trixie looked back to Simon, blinking, before retrieving her fallen toast and munching on it casually. Just staring at Simon. And eating soggy toast.



Angel shrugged in response to Moira's quizzical expression. He didn't bother hiding his pain; of those that needed the rest, next to his sister he was the one who slept in most. His injuries weren't as bad as being surrounded by shards of glass like Moira was - at least that's how he felt - but at least now he'd never take being able to walk without feeling like puking for granted again. "Hey, if you guys hadn't helped out, we'd be without a school at all. 's just one little extra sign of thanks I could offer. Besides, I'm not gonna be handicapped forever. If I wanted that, I'd join the army," he grinned, "or become a guilder."

Before Angel could turn his attention to Syed next, the sliding door suddenly and loudly flew open. In walked Amy, soaking wet, with her eyes still scrunched shut. She stormed straight passed them, up the stairs, into the nearest bathroom, and slammed the door. Like Moira and Trixie previously, Angel blinked in a mixture of confusion and curiosity. "Huh. She doesn't have a good temper, does she."

He then turned his attention to the back porch, shaking his head at the sight of Simon. "Pinche idiota. He's lucky that wasn't my sister again. Oh hey Lucien, he might still have those photos on him actually~"

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

No worries, Buns! Everyone pretty much skipped last round so it's not a problem. ^^

I don't mind if you guys don't read this lol, but I should leave an explanation here in case I seem extremely pissy/distressed for the next... however long. I'll be in England in two weeks so hopefully our stress levels are dead by then... ugh. I've been super grumpy as of late and I apologize for that ><;

EDIT: Blah, feeling better after that tl;dr vent so I'm just wiping it. Basically my other dog is sick and my mum's flipping out because she thinks our neighbors (who hate dogs) poisoned him (Joey) and Riley since they both got sick. Paid for an X-ray as well because bloodwork alone couldn't tell us if he had stones or not, and with Riley's kidney failure, I didn't want to take the chance with Joey's sickness being worse than it looked. Thankfully it's not haha, and he wasn't poisoned either, though he's on a prescription diet now - which combined with today's expenses and Riley's stuff as well... It's taking a huge toll on our finances lately so :/.

We also found a house we like above the other ones we've been looking at - affordable monthly payments... But a $3400 deposit fee to secure our application. :|

Really sorry for all the doom n gloom on my end. It's been a really rough summer. A lot of positives followed by all these negatives ughh... -.-

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Argh, I really wanna post for the pool scene right now, but I need to go run an errand with my bro before the building closes, soon as he gets home. XD I won't be back and able to post for a few hours though since I need to pick up my puppy from the vets after we do errands & grocery shopping too aggghuhu. Is it okay if I don't have the pool scene interrupted? ;w; I have something I'd like my girls to do that's short and sweet, but I literally have to bust out of here in like ten minutes orz orz

IN THE MEANTIME, MUSICS-- Pacman why are you listening to Beyonce-- on second thought, it's Beyonce, you don't need an explanation



I've just been kicking back with my dark/industrial electro music again <3

I'm sure we could improve some with Rose-related scenes if we move on without Pacman. I know Lute's waiting on a response from her, but maybe for the other girls thinking about a dress for Xan, a waitress could overhear them and help them? (Like there's a separate closet for dresses or whatever Rose has per approved for guests to wear. Like the Hawthornes did. XD) Or they could just... find and take one from somewhere. Huehue. Just thinking of possibilities. (:

Otherwise I'm good with both waiting or moving on.

Aliquam: La Mansion de Cervantés - Rose's Room

"So, sis. How do I look?"

"Same as always, Angel."

"No, I know that - I mean. My face. Do I look okay?"

"Do you want me to lie to you?"

The male aristocrat rolled his eyes with a chuckle. "Hah! I'm going to take that as a no."

Angel stood within the center of Rose's room, suited in his usual attire - a white button down shirt with black slacks, vest, and gloves to match. Even with casual and everyday events, he never dressed less than formal, though his unkempt (but highly attractive) chestnut hair spoke volumes otherwise. The only major difference between today and most days were how largely his injuries stood out. Around his head was a layer of bandage wraps, which not only covered a chunk of his face but parted his hair... something he wasn't entirely happy about. Not only that but with a bruised eye and cuts and bandages splayed all over his arms, it seemed only natural to come to Rose for approval on his appearance.

Whether she was helping him or not was a different question. Regardless of that, Angel was just relieved she was in good spirits today, despite her broken ankle. Truthfully it hurt him that she and Sebastian were injured at all - damn dirty thieves going after the vulnerable - but at least they were okay now.

Before either aristocrat could comment on Angel's appearance any further, the door creaked open, and a familiar face slid into the room. "Good morning, miss Rose. I, uh, brought fruit. Do you mind if I come in?"

"Oh! Looks like you've got your own date to settle, Rose. I'll leave you two." Angel snickered, opening the door to Lute's surprise and waltzing right out the room passed him. Without looking back, he made his way downstairs towards where Moira, Syed, and Lucien were, barely missing the ends of their discussion.

"Moira! Just the gal I wanted to see." He nearly smacked the beserker on her back like last time, but both of them knew that was a pretty bad idea. "If and whenever you come back to Aliquam, I'll have your commission all ready for you, free of charge of course. Just be sure to hit me up on what you want exactly before you head out."

He laughed again before taking a pained seat at the bar as well, looking towards the back porch. Seemed like the little girl was out there again splashing her legs in the water. Surprisingly enough, the older blonde chick was with her too, with her dress tugged back so as to not wet it from her calves also in the water. The littler one was nodding her head enthusiastically, probably yammering on about how excited she was for her friend's date tonight. The older one, not so much. Well... as long as they were getting their relaxation too.

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Aaaaand posted. :) Had a lot of fun with this one for some reason, hahaha. Hope everyone's amped for my chapter as much as I am :D

The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Buns clicky

Hey Buns, there's plenty of time to get things fleshed out. Don't overthink or worry too much about it; Pacman told me you have a general idea for it already (although not what it was haha), so as long as you get the details hammered out during your break times at home or something, you'll be fine. :) Your villain won't be showing up anytime too soon in my chap anyway, if that helps you feel better re: planning. I'll be sending out a group PM for you, me, and Pacman probably later tonight if not tomorrow so we can get the CSes and motivations, etc. squared away, and that'll be one less thing you have to worry about. If you're struggling for an appearance, I can help you out - I have plenty of pics and methods of scoping out pics, and I don't mind helping you out if you need it. :)

But if you really do feel like it's getting too much and it's stressing you out, then feel free to drop the villain too. I really don't want to stress anyone out with my chapter (not more than I have to anyway (; ), so if you decide against it in the end, it's seriously okay hahaha. I mean it shouldn't get to a stressful point with the way I'm trying to get everything planned in advance with loads of leeway, but if something happens and/or you want to take more precautions, don't feel locked into using a villain for my chapter.

Re: Xan/Angel's date, we could just play out them meeting up and heading out but not the actual date? So maybe one or two more rounds before calling the ends of the chap? I don't want to make the calls on that though lol, I'm fine with anything. Xandra could always think over the random details that's happened over the beginning of my chapter too so we don't have to drag this one out (and bore players that aren't involved... unless they wanna stalk (｡+･`ω･´)) hahaha.

Speaking of which, I'll postpone my IC until tomorrow morning before Pacman posts; I want to give Fox the chance to post before I do. :) Gonna have some difficulty posting during the daytime tomorrow anyway, so if anything I'll probs post twice on Friday or Saturday, whenever we get my co-gm chapter started. There's no rush or anything though ^^ Could use the extra time to finalize last-minute details and potential loopholes hahaha.
