Tehanna pulled Eri's hair back. While holding it the Drow levitated a ribbon to her hand and tied the hair back. Adjusting the Skinwalker's top, she then replied, "You were good before, now you're perfect."
Eri shakes her head and chuckles slightly, "I just meant I wanted to make sure I didn't look like I had been upset, but thanks." Eri gets up and goes to the sink to wash her face. She didn't want Ravan thinking she was upset, and she didn't want to seem overly emotional.
Drying her face she goes to Tehanna and stretches up on her toes to give her a kiss, "I'm gonna go talk to Ravan. Wait here for me and I'll be back soon." Giving Tehanna's rear a parting squeeze, Eri smirks as she turns around and heads for the door. Maybe she would feel like eating something later after they settled all this ritual stuff.
Eri leaves their room and goes to Ravan's door. Pausing to take a breath, Eri knocks on the door.
At the sensation of Sasha's fingertips running up and down her thigh, a low purr sounds in the sorceress' throat as she locks eyes with her protege, leaning forward to passionately kiss her.
She barely hears the knock at the door, breaking off from her lover with a groan as she gets up and heads to the door with a sigh.
Opening the door she finds Eri standing there, a look on her face as if trying to control her feelings.
Looking up at the Sorceress she says, "I'm sorry for bothering you, but there's something I need to talk to you and Sasha about. If you're too busy right now I can come back later...I just, I don't want to be a bother." Eri wrings her hands together slightly as she speaks.
Al gets dressed and eventually answers his door.
What was about to be irritation evaporates as Ravan sees Eri's expression. "It's alright Eri, you aren't interrupting anything we can't continue later," the sorceress says chuckling warmly at her own joke.
Turning with a little sigh, she addresses Sasha. "Sasha darling, wake those two and send them on their way will you? Eri needs to speak with us."
Opening the door fully and inviting Eri in she moves to pick up a light silken robe and put it on, less out of modesty, then the knowledge that Sasha would follow her lead, and it would be easier to listen to Eri without....distractions.
Seeming relieved, Eri enters the room and takes a seat in one of the chairs at the table as she waits for Ravan and Sasha to clear out thed room and get ready to listen to her.
When they've both donned a robe and are ready, Eri tries to explain the situation as best she can, while keeping most of the emotion she felt out of her voice. Looking up at Ravan as she nears the end of her explanation she says, "You know I understand little to nothing of this magicky stuff, but....I love Tehanna, and I trust her. She seems to know what she's doing, and she thinks Sasha can help her complete thed ritual faster. I don't know what to think, except that it seems risky to me to rush something like magic, or try to force a certain result, but I promised her I'd come talk to you about it. Of course it's totally up to you two, and whatever you decide....we'll understand. She said if it didn't work, the worst she'd have is a really bad headache for a few days." Eri looks down at her hands, "I love her, and I trust her....but....I'm sorry, I just don't like magic and I worry about her cutting corners. Magic is....wild and unpredictable...and it scares me. I try not to let it...but it just does and I can't help it." Looking back up at Raven there's an almost fearful and slightly miserable look on her face, "I'm not afraid of you or her though. I know you'd never hurt me. I'm sorry if I got upset, I don't mean to." Forcing herself to shut up before everything comes tumbling out of her mouth, Eri tries to breath and calm herself. She hadn't meant to become emotional, but thinking about what Tehanna wanted to do, brought all those feelings to the surface.
Sasha did indeed take Ravan's lead and dressed more appropriately. However, listening to what Eri said caused her to pale slightly. "Mistress......I.......I don't know about this. I've only just started getting a hold on my powers."
Eri looks up at Sasha, "I had the same concern Sasha, but Tehanna believes that you are the key to helping her with this ritual, and I believe in her." Eri sighs a little, "Look, this is a decision that only the two of you can make, but she thinks it's more about your raw power and that light spell of yours. I just....I don't want either one of you getting hurt, so if you decide to do this...please make sure you can do it safely. Whatever you decide though, you have my support." She says, looking at Ravan and wondering what her friend thinks about this whole thing.
Opening the door, your Halfling servant stood there with a covered tray. This time she dressed, just enough for modesty. Around her neck was a collar which a short leather strap hung from, and unbound shackles on her wrists as well as her ankles. "Your breakfast sir."
"I think I would like to speak with Tehanna and hear what her theories entail first before agreeing to anything," she says to Eri after some consideration. "But you have more power and potential in you than you believe darling." she continues, turning to Sasha.
Eri nods, "Yeah, that's completely fine. It would probably be better to hear it from someone who actually understands it anyways. Did you want to go talk to her now, or do you need a little....time to yourselves first?" She asks, unable to help the half smirk that creeps onto her lips.
Sasha couldn't stop herself from lighting up at Mistress' compliment, but she quickly regain her composure. At Eri's question, the young woman could barely contain her quivering while hoping Mistress would ply for time.
There came a knock at your door.
Ravan nods, smiling as Eri asks if they needed some time. Her smile only grows as she sees the light dancing in Sasha's eyes as she practically quivers with elation and excitement.
"Perhaps a little time to.....wake up properly, might be in order." she says, biting her lip slightly as she lets her mind wander for a moment.
Eri's smirk gets a little wider, "Sure, take all the time you need. We'll be in our room whenever you're ready." Eri says, chuckling quietly as she turns to go back to her and Tehanna's room.
Sasha 'maintained' her composure as she turned to Ravan, "How may I serve, Mistress?"
Returning to the room, Eri saw Tehanna nose deep in a book while a couple of scrolls were unfurled on the table. Looking up at the Skinwalker, the Drow asked, "What did she say?"
Closing the door behind her, Eri walks over to Tehanna and kisses her cheek before sitting down. "Ravan said she wants to talk to you first, before making a decision. She wants to know exactly what's involved with this ritual of yours, before she agrees to it. Her and Sasha will stop by after a while and we'll discuss it then. Okay?"

Gio opens the door cautiously.
"Understandable, we wouldn't want to put her little pleasure girl harmed. I'll need to just go over a couple more things, then I'm all yours. Is that alright?"
You see Morbak standing in front of your door. The Half-Orc looked as though he had not slept well. "Good morning sir, sorry for disturbing you, but I think I need to speak with you."

Eri levels a look at Tehanna, "Her name is Sasha, and she's a person. Just like you and me. Do not refer to her like that again, or I might have to punish you. There is no need to be disrespectful, and I will not tolerate it. Do you understand me?" She asks seriously. There would be no talk of any kind of pleasure tonight, unless she knew that Tehanna understood that she wouldn't tolerate her making fun of someone else. Especially someone that was important to her friend.
"Sasha it is then," Tehanna replied. The Drow gave Eri a quick look up and down, "Perhaps we need to discuss boundaries. I seem to keep crossing them and it would help if I perhaps knew where they are." She set down her book and focused on her love.
Looking at her love she takes her hands, "It's actually pretty simple. I just want you to not be condescending to my friends, or who they choose to be close with. They have names, so use them. Finally, just treat other people the way you would want to be treated. If you want to be treated with respect, then respect others...but at the same time, show that you are worthy of that respect. I love you Tehanna, I just don't like hearing people referred to as possesions. Just please be mindful of the words you're using when talking about other people. We all have feelings." Takijng one of her hands she kisses it lovingly, "Words can hurt more than a knife, so just be careful how you use them. Okay love?"
"It would appear that my cultural heritage is resurfacing. We Drow tend to be a little..........higher than thou. I'll do my best to work on it, my Love."

Eri sighs, "What do you mean by cultural heratige? I'll make it super easy forf you to understand. Treat my friends with respect, and don't do anything that might hurt one of them, or I'll wear your butt out and you won't sit for a week or so."
She sighs and rubs her temples, "My owner used magic and potions to force me to dgo his, and his guests bidding. He used to call me his personal pleasure girl, when he wasn't beating before a fight to riled me up so I'd destroy the opponents. I was all kinds of entertainment...and they liked tying me up, so I couldn't keep them from doing things for their entertainment. I was just a toy...a toy...so I don't want you talking to anyone else like that. They deserve respect as much as you do."
Gio arches an eyebrow, quietly disregarding the first thought that came to mind. "You look troubled. What can I do for you?"
Unsure of how Tehanna would react to what she told her, and feeling a little surprised that she told her so much when she hadn't meant to spill everything like that, Eri gets up and moves over to where Tehanna sits before getting up in her lap.
Now sitting in the dark elf's lap, Eri puts her arms around her neck, and buries her head in Tehanna's shoulder. Sniffling az little she says, "I...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to blurt all of that out. I'm so sorry, I'll be quiet now." She says while trying to calm herself. She didn't want Tehanna to think that she was some kind of crybaby or something.

Putting her arms around Eri, "Dearest, it's perfectly alright. I was hoping you opening up about your past would be a little less emotionally charged and not so soon after our disagreement. But now I have a better understanding as to your aversion to various things. We're both a little damaged, but together we can figure this out and help to heal each other." The Drow couldn't stop the tear from rolling down her cheek.
"After our talk last night, I had rather fitful dreams about blood and storms. Then Rull himself visited and told me to help you. I don't know how I'm supposed to do that, so I came to you for advice."
Eri nods as Tehanna holds her, her muscles tight as she fights for control over her feelings. Seeing the tear roll down her love's cheek, Eri finally relaxes in her arms, and allows herself to express her emotions. Burying her head in Tehanna's chest she starts to cry, releasing all those years of pain and suffering. Tehanna had been hurt too, and Eri knew that she understood her and loved her despite everything she had been through.
Between sobs she says in a slightly muffled voice, "I'm....so sorry. I know you're....not him, and....you would never....hurt me. I'm sorry I....let it scare me....so much. I just love you....so much. I've never loved...anyone or anything this much. I don't want....anything happening to you. I try....not to be scared....I'm so sorry. Please don't....be sad....I love you...I'm here, and...I'm not upset at you. I should have...told you sooner. It's....my fault." She gets out between sobs, she didn't mean to upset Tehanna, or bring up her own painful memories. Tehanna had showed Eri what happened to her, she should have told her about her master sooner.
As she's held in Tehanna's loving embrace, she reaches up and wipes away the tear on her face before kissing her cheek, "We both free now." She says softly, before taking Tehanna's face gently in her hands and kissing her deeply. She needed her now, more than ever. To feel loved and safe, wanted and needed. Tehanna was everything, she never knew she needed, and she never wanted to think about losing her again.
With a few tears rolling down her cheeks, Eri kisses her love with a passionate wild abandon.
Gio explains about the symbol he found in the tower. "I suppose that is what you can help me with."
"Do you suppose we can look today Sir? I don't think I could take another night like the one I had last night."
Tehanna just held Eri, trying to provide comfort to her lover.
Not feeling Tehanna respond to her need of her, Eri pulls back a little and looks into her love's eyes, "Tehanna...." She says, her tone concerned and curious as to if her love even heard her, or if she was distracted by something else.

Eri's kiss slowly ignited the embers deep within. Her hands began wandering, fortunately, the Drow stopped herself before things went too far. Now was not the time.
Feeling Tehanna start to respond to her kiss, she moans softly as Tehanna's hands wander. Knowing that her love was still trying to figure some things out before speaking with Ravan she forces herself to pull back, "I...I'm sorry. I know there are things you're still working on."
Eri bites her lower lip as she thinks about the things she'd like to be working on instead. Slowly removing her arms from around Tehanna, she gives her love's ample bosom a gentle squeeze before smirking slightly at her, "I guess I'll go check on George and be a good girl so you can finish your studies before they arrive." Eri says in a bit of a pouty tone as she gives Tehanna a final kiss, before slowly climbing down from her lap. Before walking towards the pool though she turns her head to look at her love, "I guess we'll just have to....behave until later then huh?" Eri then looks down and lets out a little sigh.
"Give me a moment to prepare myself and I shall meet you at the doors shortly," Gio tells Morbak.
"I'll be out here Sir," Morbak replied while waiting in passageway.
Tehanna smiled while she gave Eri a playful swat on the behind as she walked by. Picking up a scroll again, the Drow went back to her studies.
