I doooo? Not if you get that song stuck in my head...Yeah....fine, I do. I was waiting on Anyka to be done talking before I dragged her off. I think we could use a little sister time. *Wink wink nudge nudge* I mean....nevermind.

With all the comings and goings of everyone, I'm a little lost. So, what the heck is going on now, and where exactly is everybody?

Flynt is in the forward cabin; Christophe is in the hold with the cart; Anyka, Asho, Tikkle and you are are still on deck; and Terra is in the Captain's Cabin. I think that's it.

As Chris grew in power, so did he and so did their ability to do their work. It was a sacrifice and, up until this point, Chris had taken to the hard road as well as expected. The young man had needs and Renard was willing to acquiese as long as he remembered the agreement.
Chris would never take a wife, have children or die in the comfort of his home. He knew this and now he was going to renege on the deal. The fox contemplated a mild poison for the witch's own good, then some sabotage. He ultimately settled on denying Chris' spells tomorrow. Then he would learn what he was giving up.
He liked the others well enough, but if they posed a threat, then he would drive them away. The fox wished he had known about Corda sooner and circumvented this mess. He wonders if Corda wasn't his handiwork to begin with. It brought a smile to his face as he hopped on a coil of rope and watched the others.
Chris was his friend, but not his master. Friends often did things that might be seen as unpleasant, but it was for the greater good.

Gashka |
She shakes her head and pulls Anyka into the room while still picking up the discarded items from where they were strewn upon the floor. While trying to pick a path towards the bed she sighs. Putting a hand up to her temple she rubbed it for a few minutes before picking the dress Tikkle had given her up off of the bed and then sits down with it in her lap. Holding it out for Anyka to see she asks, "Do you have any idea what's going on, or why Tikkle might want me to wear something like this? I'll wear it if he wants me too....I'm just....a little confused as to why I'm wearing a dress when I've never worn a dress in my life...." She falls silent for a minute and then looks up at Anyka, "I....I'm not even sure how to put it on....."

Anyka smiles. "They're a bit fussy but dresses can be fun to wear sometimes, as long as you don't plan on getting into a fight. The best part is the effect a fancy dress can have on guys though." she says holding up the dress.
She lets out a low whistle.
"Wow this one's pretty swanky. It's going to look great on you, don't worry I'll help you get ready for whatever he's got planned. Probably a fancy meal or something, there's a big deal about dining at the captains table for sailors for some reason."

There's one in there somewhere for you too if you don't have something, Anyka. Tikkle was gonna say that if he saw you on deck before Gashka called to you. ;)
Gashka |
She looks at Anyka for a moment then sighs, "A part of me knows that I should be more excited about getting all girlyfied, but....I don't know. Maybe I'm just being silly...Ill shut up now. If seeing me in this dress will make him.....happy, then of course Ill wear it. Thanks....I probably will need help getting it on." She chuckles as she shakes her head.

Gashka |
Gashka gets a nervous look on her face,"Whaa....what are ya gonna do to me?" She blushes slightly, "I'm sorry, I know you're trying to help....I guess I just feel a little nervous...." She sits on the bed wringing her hands slightly, looking down at the floor.

Gashka |
She looks over at Terra and smiles slightly, "I guess we're getting made over for some kind of party or something and I have to wear a dress...."

Tikkle |
The Half-elf woman knocks on the door of the cabin and, when given permission, steps in, retrieving a flat leather bag from one of the closets in the cabin. She had the eyepatch turned up, using both eyes. The Cap'n wanted me to retrieve this so he didn't have to interrupt you ladies, so if you''l excuse me, I'll leave you to it. She exits the room with a smile and a wink toward Gashka in particular.
Gashka |
Gashka gives her small smile and blushes horribly, but says nothing to the half elf woman. Once she's left, Gashka looks to her two sisters and sighs while rolling her eyes a bit. "Okay.....but just this once okay Anyka? And just not too heavy with the make up." She closes her eyes before asking, "You two are gonna get all fancied up too right? I don't wanna be the only one lookin all girly.....and....thanks, for this and for putting up with my whining. Sorry if I'm being a pain...." She falls quiet again and gets up from the bed. "Okay....where do you want me to sit?"

"And more," the witch replies coldly. "This link works both ways, you know."
"Then I needn't say more. Forget about this party and I might forgive you."
"And Tehanna?"
"There are other men on this boat. You know how to keep yourself company," the fox says, a hint of dark humor in his tone. "This is nothing compared to the life ahead of you."
"A life of loneliness?" Chris asks.
"You'll always have me...your only true friend. Who has been by your side all this time? Me. Who understands you? Me. Who has all your spells? Me. Where would you be without me? Selling two-bit potions from a roadside stand? Whoring your sister out to toothless hunters? I saved you from a life where those things might have happened. Are you willing to throw away all we had, all we have and all we could have for a chance? Why aim so low when you could shoot for the stars? For once in your life, listen to reason. You're a man now, act like one."
Gashka |
She looks down at the floor again, "I know...I'm trying to....I really am, I'm just....it feels weird being fussed over....that's all."

Ash will cotton on to Tikkle's plan eventually. He's completely happy to doff his scale armor for some fancy duds, though he'll opt for rakish pirate lord/fashionista than true gentleman. This way he can still rock a shortsword and throwing axe in his sash. No issues with being unarmed, this one. ;P
Gashka |
Gashka tries to sit as still as she can, but she can't help fidgeting once in a while and then lets out a yelp when her hair gets pulled a little too hard.
"Geez Anyka, do ya hafta pull it so tight? I know it can be a little unruly, but I'd still like to have some left in my head ya know." She laughs at Anyka's admonishing look, and tries to still herself before her hair gets yanked again.
"Are we almost done? I feel like I've been sitting here for hours...not that I don't appreciate it....really. So, what did you find out about Chris? He's been acting a little weird lately....I'm kinda worried about him."
Gashka |
Her eyes go wide a little bit and she starts to look at Terra before Anyka grabs her head and forces it forward again. Anyka looks at Gashka with the brush in her hand and says, "I know you're nervous, but if you would just sit still this would go much faster." She goes back to fussing with Gashka's hair while they talk.
"Really? I don't know if he knows exactly what he wants. He lost three years of his life and has no memory of it. I feel as if....he just doesn't seem very sure of himself, and I think I've actually seen him talking to Renard....like he's having a conversation with his fox or something. He always seems to have this far away look on his face, as if he's not completely here as well. Do either of you know anything about witches? I'm wondering if it's something about the path he's on that's bothering him?" She tries to sit as still as possible as Anyka finishes up with her, and as she voices her real concerns about Chris.
Anyka Talia |
"No I honestly thing witches are just people who obtain magic from something other than a god or study or birth but dimwitted hicks create all kinds of dark stories and suddenly...witch hunts. Heh, I think that's the first time I've ever heard that term used literally." Anyka says finishing with Gashka's makeup as she steps back to admire her handywork.
Applying lipstick to Terra she smiles, both her sisters stunning, Terra by now accustomed to the routine, while Gashka remained hesitant." Ok so now on with the dresses then I'll get myself ready, don;t worry I'll help."
Gashka |
Gashka gets into the dress that Tikkle picked out, with some help from Anyka she's able to figure out where the straps go and once its on she looks at herself in a mirror. "Okay.....that looks ok right? What about my boots, do they go okay with everything else?"

Tikkle |
Tikkle stands in the center of the deck as the sun is settling, wearing a dashing suit finished with red and gold. "Gentlemen! And ladies," He shouts, nodding to the vast minority of female crew members. "It's been a mite too long since we last had a starlight ball on the Wildcat! After all, why keep the best duds outta the booty if we're never gonna use them?!" The smiling Captain lets the crew finish their cheering before continuing, "Grab your instruments! Grab some food! And for the gods' sake GRAB SOME RUM! The party starts when the sun drops below the horizon and the wind dies!"
Anyka Talia |
Anyka smiles, looking at both Gashka and Terra with pride. " Let's put it this way, once this ball thingy is over, those dresses aren't going to stay on very long. " she says with a smirk. " And yes T, I noticed when Flynt disappeared for about an hour this morning"
Flynt |
Flynt stands there on deck, in his very expensive black suit with matching tie. He adjusts the collar a bit and just smiles at Tikkle's speech. He goes up to him afterwards. "So that's what this was about. You just wanted to throw a party. You shoulda said something?"
Tikkle |
"Didn't I say something? Whoops... Oh well! Enjoy the party anyway!"

Deciding that she didn't want to walk out of that room by herself, she sits on Tikkle's bed and watches Anyka as she puts on her own makeup and then finally a dress of dark blue that seems to hug Anykas figure in all the right places. Terra looks equally amazing in her little black body hugging number. Once all three girls are ready they walk out of the cabin onto the deck as a trio of beautiful women.

Terra simply remained calm as Anyka poked and prodded. a part of her enjoyed the attention.
she really didn't know what she truly looked like but her trust in her sisters afforded her the luxury of not worrying about that.
She smiled as everyone got finished.
I hope I still remember my dancing instructions, its been a long time. Terra quips realizing she has not gone as many "dates" as her sisters have.
Gashka |
"I'm right there with ya T...I haven't danced in a long time....now I have to dance on something that rocks? I just hope I'm not too clumsy. We'll just try not to think about it and have some fun okay?" She gives Terra a little reassuring hug before going to find Tikkle.
