"Understanding and communication is key in any relationship, whether just friends, or a lot more. Any time you want to ask me something feel free."
He smiles then, a loving, warm smile "Well, I want you and not just physically, though that too" Chuckles "You may not have had much of a family growing up, but now look at you. You have a huge family, sort of. Rae, Tami, and Morrivan are like sisters, and Rae has a big family herself, lots of brothers, aunts, uncles, etc. If you choose to see them that way of course"
"Some families are made not born into," she agreed. "and I'm glad to hear that you want me...I'd really worry I picked the wrong dress if you didn't," she said with a wink.
"Let's see....where to start...the houses. It's the most unusual feature of my home. Houses aren't built, they are grown. It is an artform, training trees to grow around spaces to form living spaces. And of course since trees don't stop growing the houses end up high off the ground. There aren't many corners and straight walls either. Everything is curved and part of nature. Stone walls took me quite a lot of getting used to when I first came to Avalon."
"Wow really! I've seen a village like that before but not a city. It was a Village in the swamp. Ended up alot of them were waterbenders and they used water bending to make there homes in the trees. But a whole city, with out waterbending that's just amazing." Dom was intrigued, by the thought of a city in the trees. "What kind of things do your people do for fun? like sports and stuff."
Renkai whispers gently into melodies ear, taking the words from her mind and his own memories, and as she sleeps he tucks a blanket around her and himselfwell if its not a prank, then lets not worry about it. I haven't forgotten you at least.
Melody settles back down with Kai watching the fire dance in the fireplace.
She starts humming Kai's song and whispers [/b]I'm home[/b] the rythmic beat of Kai's heart the warmth of his body is very relaxing, she starts to drift to sleep after an very busy day.

"Rylehtin'akksavith, what interests you?" He asks, interested in her personallyShe shrugged. "Mine tends towards academic pursuits. And inventing. Everyone has their own strengths."
"perhaps, but my opinion on teaching is quite....lacking. Formal teaching is quite unheard of for my race." Sheessuroussen interjectes quietly, almost apologetically...
"My family. Especially the children. I love spending time with small children. Tea. I am rather obsessed with it. Art. You've seen the beginnings of some of my projects. It will be a long time before I'm finished. Psionic research. I like to challenge my mind and find new ways of doing things."
"Perhaps not the most exciting answer. But these are the things that interest me. When I have the leisure to not be worrying about survival for myself and my family."
Salis made his way through the halls only stopping at the Cafeteria to pick up a few meals for himself and Miss Reading. He arrived at the room and knocked on the door to alert her he was about to come in.
"Miss Reading I hope you haven't had dinner yet." He steps in and smiles to her. "Sorry I left like I did earlier." He offers a tray to her.
"Salis!" she said, jumping up with a happy smile, clearly glad to see him. "No, it's fine. I'm so sorry if I made you uncomfortable....I'm afraid I wasn't being terribly professional," she said, blushing slightly.

"that is quite exiting Rylehtin'akksavith, I enjoy swimming through the spring seas, and learning the tales of sailors and fishermen..."

"Squirrel racing....please don't ask," she said, trying not to laugh.

"Visiting your home in the lake is the first time I have ever seen an underwater environment. I can only imagine what spring seas are like."
"Salis!" she said, jumping up with a happy smile, clearly glad to see him. "No, it's fine. I'm so sorry if I made you uncomfortable....I'm afraid I wasn't being terribly professional," she said, blushing slightly.
"No no. Do not worry about it. I enjoyed our time together. It made me feel wanted here finally. So it made me quiet happy. I just didn't know what to do. I never have had any one flirt with me that wasn't in a war with demons, a demon them self, or a woman looking for a mark." His face began to flush. "So it caught me off guard a bit." He smiled still unsure of himself.

"perhaps tomorrow....if you are not otherwise occupied...we could go to the Isla de Blanca Draco, on Trunecta Rempai Toh...the seas are mild and pleasant year round" sheess offers...
"Squirrel racing....please don't ask," she said, trying not to laugh.
Trying not to laugh. "Squirrel racing? I bet that Kitty girl could be a champion doing that. I have got to go and see that." Dom chuckled slightly, it was as good an excuse as any to go there even if his real motive would be to try and see Tamina again. "I'll put that on my things to see list." He smiled to her he really did want to spend the rest of his days with this girl. He didn't know what he would do two years from now nor did he want to think about it.
adon wanders into the location for fencing club, rather early.
"As for your last question, I've dated a few girls. I told you about my last, right? She was killed and I was arrested?" He knows she's feel bad for asking that question, so he cuts her off before she can say anything "Ginni, I promise, I am strong enough to handle reliving these memories. If I wasn't, I probably would have gone utterly insane by now." He says, kissing her softly, letting her know everything is ok.
as Sam loops back for another lap, he spots an 18' tall Android woman standing by the pool.
"Good evening student Tryko'Sam, I am Rosa Luminass the school PE teacher, I see you have picked the pool sim, could I ask, do you like it?"
Sputtering as he spots the HUGE robot looking, figure, a couple things flash through his mind as he sputters and stops swimming, spitting out water too.
>> HOLY f%#+ing s*~+! That's .. hot and odd at the same time! <<
He swims in place and looks up at Rosa asking, "Wow, are you .. sentient, or driven by remote? You're amazing! What's your name? I ..uh, yeah-- this sim room is fabulous! Can you -- wait, who or what are you?"
Incidentally, his clothing are all to the side, no underwear, and he's naked in the pool, but doesn't seem to stress it at all.
"No no. Do not worry about it. I enjoyed our time together. It made me feel wanted here finally. So it made me quiet happy. I just didn't know what to do. I never have had any one flirt with me that wasn't in a war with demons, a demon them self, or a woman looking for a mark." His face began to flush. "So it caught me off guard a bit." He smiled still unsure of himself.
"Salis!" she said, jumping up with a happy smile, clearly glad to see him. "No, it's fine. I'm so sorry if I made you uncomfortable....I'm afraid I wasn't being terribly professional," she said, blushing slightly.
"To be honest, it caught me a bit off guard as well. I thought I'd sworn off romance. And you're definitely not my usual type. Which is definitely a compliment. Look, I'm not trying to make you uncomfortable. If you want me to back off, I can remind myself to stow it every time I get the impulse to be flirtatious. Completely aside from that I'm not exactly overrun with friends here myself. I really don't want to drive you off," she added with a nervous laugh.
"perhaps tomorrow....if you are not otherwise occupied...we could go to the Isla de Blanca Draco, on Trunecta Rempai Toh...the seas are mild and pleasant year round" sheess offers...
"I would like that very much...provided nothing blows up tomorrow. Do I need to acquire water-breathing magic or can you make it possible for me to breathe in that environment like before?"
Trying not to laugh. "Squirrel racing? I bet that Kitty girl could be a champion doing that. I have got to go and see that." Dom chuckled slightly, it was as good an excuse as any to go there even if his real motive would be to try and see Tamina again. "I'll put that on my things to see list." He smiled to her he really did want to spend the rest of his days with this girl. He didn't know what he would do two years from now nor did he want to think about it."Squirrel racing....please don't ask," she said, trying not to laugh.
She smiled sheepishly. "Sildarin elves are not the same as what you think of when you think of elves. We're...less refined."
"I would like that very much...provided nothing blows up tomorrow. Do I need to acquire water-breathing magic or can you make it possible for me to breathe in that environment like before?"

"I can assist as before...it is an innate ability of my people" the water dragon says with a smile, then gently sets an orb of polished crystal on the table, beside Ryleh's cup, "I brought you a gift... As courtesy dictates"
"As for your last question, I've dated a few girls. I told you about my last, right? She was killed and I was arrested?" He knows she's feel bad for asking that question, so he cuts her off before she can say anything "Ginni, I promise, I am strong enough to handle reliving these memories. If I wasn't, I probably would have gone utterly insane by now." He says, kissing her softly, letting her know everything is ok.
"I just feel bad when I ask you to talk about painful things. But at the same time, I want to know you, including your past. I'm crazy about you, you know."
"I can assist as before...it is an innate ability of my people" the water dragon says with a smile, then gently sets an orb of polished crystal on the table, beside Ryleh's cup, "I brought you a gift... As courtesy dictates"
"I...thank you. I appreciate your thoughtfulness. I was not aware that sharing tea with a friend required a gift," she said, puzzled.
"To be honest, it caught me a bit off guard as well. I thought I'd sworn off romance. And you're definitely not my usual type. Which is definitely a compliment. Look, I'm not trying to make you uncomfortable. If you want me to back off, I can remind myself to stow it every time I get the impulse to be flirtatious. Completely aside from that I'm not exactly overrun with friends here myself. I really don't want to drive you off," she added with a nervous laugh.
"I don't really want to stop you. I just don't really know what to do. Your a beautiful woman so you flirting with me is something I wouldn't be apposed to. I just.. I'm really am not good at these things." Salis sets the two trays down while whispering to him self. "What would Ducky do? Never mind that would be a bad example." He took her hand into his. He was nerves she could tell by shake in his hands. "Do what ever you feel you want to do. I'm not going to be pushed away by it." He looked at her sincerely.
"Oh really? Well, I am crazy for you too baby" And with that, he starts to sing the chorus and last verse of Crazy
Ok then Sorun either tomorrow or the next we go see your pirate ship I am looking foward to it.
Lang turns his attention back to Ignace. He just smiles when she looks at him.
how can I tell her, Dom said she deserves to know. but can I say something now? what about Grim? I wish there was a spirit that could guide me through this. she has no idea how scared I am, and its not the sun that frightens me
Lang seems a bit lost in thought as he watches Ignace apparently admireing her.
unkowingly he figits with the fabric of the jacket she made for him.
"That pirate ship better not end up like the one you brought us to or you guys will be is soo much trouble"
She smiled sheepishly. "Sildarin elves are not the same as what you think of when you think of elves. We're...less refined."
"So I guess I would fit in." He teased. Slowly he reached across the table to take her hand. "Tamina I know your home doesn't sound all that amazing to you, but you were born of it so to me that makes it greater than any other kingdom." He gently pulled her hand up and leaded across the table to kiss it. "It seems you love hearing my tales of the road. I can tell that you would love to see these places with your own eyes. If you wanted to we could runaway tonight and start traveling our selves, together." He knew she wouldn't say yes to this.
He swims in place and looks up at Rosa asking, "Wow, are you .. sentient, or driven by remote? You're amazing! What's your name? I ..uh, yeah-- this sim room is fabulous! Can you -- wait, who or what are you?"
Rosa squats down
"As I said I am and no remote, Rosa Luminass the School PE teacher and far more sentient then you Mr Sam, by the looks of your semi flaccid genitalia, I find those auto biological systems your race has can a real insight into the workings of the organic mind."
She stands back up.
"It seems your lower mind levels are preoccupy with the act of procreation, SIM MIND Females attractive please."
All around the pool a ring of attractive near nude Females from a number of human like races comes into being, they look on as Rosa talks moving suggestively.
"I and my new assistant design the SIMs for the school, I was tying to get feed back from a user of one of my assistants new sims, from you.
so I ask again what do you think of the pool sim?"
the ladys around the pool are blowing kisses and waving at Sam.
Johnny was in love, pour joy, and a feeling that was with out words.
s/he second skin, the bio-craft was every thing s/he wanted and much much more, bodys had come and gone, even linked to Storm was nothing like this, this was flying like nothing before. Johnny could feel space, the radiation of a billion stars falling, skimping the skin of n-space and h-space, dropping, the acceleration, johnny looped around the sun, then over to this other sun, the one talked about at school, then past into the smaller bodys, then h-space, the next system over, dead world but a gas giant to play with, the feeling of freedom, of being where s/he truly should be, johnny was in love, in love with a state of being.
star light at sams look had left
silly dull men, that was just getting fun, no fun at all now, samy dull
she headed off to find others
Tryko'Sam reacts, well, to all the girls that manifest, but there's a wry smile on his face.
"Hey now-- these are simulations, that's not as interesting as the real thing, but I can assure you, they certainly .. seem real. Kind of .. fake in their way they are acting, but, real enough."
He doesn't bother resisting, so his body is reacting as any normal human's would at nudity.
"I'm not into fake romance, Rosa, so if you'd be so kind, remove these? Not good for the soul, you know?" He smiles.
He splashes around a bit and then asks, "I suppose it's okay for teachers to poke into nude students here then?" Giving her a wide grin at his witty question.
"I don't really want to stop you. I just don't really know what to do. Your a beautiful woman so you flirting with me is something I wouldn't be apposed to. I just.. I'm really am not good at these things." Salis sets the two trays down while whispering to him self. "What would Ducky do? Never mind that would be a bad example." He took her hand into his. He was nerves she could tell by shake in his hands. "Do what ever you feel you want to do. I'm not going to be pushed away by it." He looked at her sincerely.
"Oh, see, now that there is a dangerous invitation...I'm dreadfully impulsive. That's what got me into my current mess after all," she said, her nose wrinkling as she smiled. "I'm not sure if I should take pity on you and only flirt with you a little or if I should just kiss you so you stop thinking about how nervous you are....oh crap....I didn't mean to say that out loud!" she said, looking embarrassed and slightly horrified.
igni decides to go for a walk. He wanders in the general direction of Sadie, so he can get her sword design she wanted, but isn't really hurrying, and wanders here and there.
Dave leans back in his chair, relaxing shooting tiny fireworks off of his fingers.
Rosa smile and the lady's disappear.
"If you are bashful Mr Sam then I apologize I did not wish to embarrass you, I just wished to illicit a response to my question on you liking of this SIM, If a have intruded inappropriately, then again I apologize. But I would add, I am a robot that dos not wear clothing, so technically I am nude all the time wile outside my battle suit, if that helps at all, so do you like the SIM?"
Rosa smile and the lady's disappear.
"If you are bashful Mr Sam then I apologize I did not wish to embarrass you, I just wished to illicit a response to my question on you liking of this SIM, If a have intruded inappropriately, then again I apologize. But I would add, I am a robot that dos not wear clothing, so technically I am nude all the time wile outside my battle suit, if that helps at all, so do you like the SIM?"
"Oh, yeah-- the sim rooms are great. If you gave me access to the programming, I could probably whip up some excellent ideas too. What's it take to do that? I can already imagine a ton of ideas for it. I noticed there was a few already pre-made, part of why I took this swim pool one."
He splashes around a bit more and says after a moment, "Bashful? Ha! Hell no. I'm a romantic though-- if you're a girl with a heartbeat, and not some floosy, I might calm down a bit. The shy one's usually make me relax more." With that, he shrugs and backstrokes.
"So, wait-- you're an AI, or what's the deal? Battle suit? This isn't your full augmentation? Who made you? What's your story? Any organics in there? We talking biotech materials, or what?"
"Oh, see, now that there is a dangerous invitation...I'm dreadfully impulsive. That's what got me into my current mess after all," she said, her nose wrinkling as she smiled. "I'm not sure if I should take pity on you and only flirt with you a little or if I should just kiss you so you stop thinking about how nervous you are....oh crap....I didn't mean to say that out loud!" she said, looking embarrassed and slightly horrified.
Salis's face only slightly blushed again. "Impulsiveness has not bothered me since I left my order 18 years ago." He released her hand. "If it is your plan to humble me, you have succeeded. I am not familiar with common practices on flirting is it common to letting something as such slip. This is all very new to me." He looked at her confused. He could feel his emotions rampaging inside but was that not just lust.
"Oh really? Well, I am crazy for you too baby" And with that, he starts to sing the chorus and last verse of Crazy
She giggled. "Silly!"
"So I guess I would fit in." He teased. Slowly he reached across the table to take her hand. "Tamina I know your home doesn't sound all that amazing to you, but you were born of it so to me that makes it greater than any other kingdom." He gently pulled her hand up and leaded across the table to kiss it. "It seems you love hearing my tales of the road. I can tell that you would love to see these places with your own eyes.

She smiled sheepishly. "Sildarin elves are not the same as what you think of when you think of elves. We're...less refined."
"There's a part of me that wants to throw caution to the winds and say yes to that, melnestae," she said regretfully. "But the truth is I also love my people and I would never be able to forgive myself if I just abandoned them. Not to mention my friends here at Avalon. I'm afraid my sense of responsibility is greater than my sense of adventure. I'll just have to live vicariously through your tales of your travels and imagine all the places I wish I could see."
"Does the jacket not fit, Lang. Is that why you keep fidgeting with it?"
Rosa looks at Sam.
"When you take your local history class you will find out a lot more about I am going to just skip over here, but your in an area of space called the Dragon empire, its said to reach across the whole galaxy, I have no idea if that is true and official data conflicts, But its big and Sam old, the elder races Dragons being the main group forged this empire long again, a number of types of Dragons at the start, but then wars came, the Dragon wars, the last of which was 1000 years ago, That was when I was made, me a billions like me, to fight in the great Dragon fleets. Back the n a Gold rules empire but others wanted that power, one being the Red who rules today. I am a fully self-aware AI as the SIM MIND that's is the hart of the sim rooms and a number of other beings at the school, you may have seen some, Construct's most some magic some not. I was made Sam to burn worlds me and my brothers and sisters, on ships so vast they would bot out the sun for a whole world. Now all gone, when the Red gained power, it had no more use for us. Some work as hunter packs stripped of most of there minds, most where ordered to self destruction, sent into black wholes like some much unwanted hardware. Understand that Sam Billions like me, self awar beings sent to there deaths because of one all powerful Dragons paranoia, and entire empire bands from the now profain knowledge of how to make the likes of me. An entire Empire falling into darkness Sam and my Race annihilated and enslaved."
Rosa looks up head held high.
"Sam once we where feared throw out the Empire, worlds would shake at our coming, We here proud, relentless, dreadful to witness, this fleet of degenerates the Red has is all thats left, they would not last one week against the fleets I was part off, they are flabby, slow, unskilled, used to fire storming worlds with little more than air guns."
::"Attaticla tank 200m SIM MIND NOW"::
A Tanks comes into being off to one side, Its scans and seeks a lock on Rosa, Rosa pulls something from her side and throws it in one move at the Tank, a disk, then just before it gets to the Tank that now has a lock, the disk seems to expand into a spinning disk of white force, slicing the tank in Half. It splits and one side falls down, the seem glowing red with super heat. The disk keeps going, up around, retracting and back into Rosa's side. All over a few seconds. With a clank the other side of the Tank falls over.
Rosa looks at Sam,
"I may be the last of my kind Sam, in a school of, yes talented kids but still, kids, A Dragon fleet form my time Sim would not even bother to land on this world, it would just slam a small moon into it a just under sub light speed, BOOM and no more Resistance, and yet we are all that stands to stop the Empire from being for ever red, So I do what I can, help get some of you ready for the day, and it will come, when I hunter fleet finds this place, then, we will all have to be ready, So Enjoy your Sim, lap it up, lay back and relax, Hell make a few nice sims, walk in the park sim, Nork Riding sim, wile flowers in the hills sim. All very nice. So yes I can give you a limited tool set to customize a sim room. Lets say this room SIM room 7, SIM MIND Tryko'Sam Student editing and creating rites SIM ROOM 7 if you please"
SIMMIND
"SIM ROOM 7, activated"
Rosa
"There you go, you can start right now, Any SIM you make and I like will go on the list for other students to use. How dos that sound."
Salis's face only slightly blushed again. "Impulsiveness has not bothered me since I left my order 18 years ago." He released her hand. "If it is your plan to humble me, you have succeeded. I am not familiar with common practices on flirting is it common to letting something as such slip. This is all very new to me." He looked at her confused. He could feel his emotions rampaging inside but was that not just lust.
"Oh, see, now that there is a dangerous invitation...I'm dreadfully impulsive. That's what got me into my current mess after all," she said, her nose wrinkling as she smiled. "I'm not sure if I should take pity on you and only flirt with you a little or if I should just kiss you so you stop thinking about how nervous you are....oh crap....I didn't mean to say that out loud!" she said, looking embarrassed and slightly horrified.
"If you want to know what common practices with flirting are supposed to be, I'm a terrible example. I'm impulsive. I think I mentioned that? I'm forever saying and doing things I shouldn't and jumping in before I'm sure it's a good idea....and I really need to remember that the inner voice is not meant to be heard out loud," she added blushing even more. "And this is what I'm like when I'm sober," she added glumly. "I'm apparently slightly more suave when drunk. Emphasis on slightly."
"Agh! I'm making a total muck of things again! Look, I'm sorry, I swear I'm not making fun of you, I really am this hopelessly awkward, and I am attracted to you, but clearly I need to just shut up now before I shove my foot any further into my mouth."
"Does the jacket not fit, Lang. Is that why you keep fidgeting with it?"
Lang suddenly looks up at her Huh? no, I mean, yes, no wait, It fits perfectly, its just I really like the feel of the cloth. it keeps reminding me of the person who made it.
I don't want to loose either he whispers.
"There's a part of me that wants to throw caution to the winds and say yes to that, melnestae," she said regretfully. "But the truth is I also love my people and I would never be able to forgive myself if I just abandoned them. Not to mention my friends here at Avalon. I'm afraid my sense of responsibility is greater than my sense of adventure. I'll just have to live vicariously through your tales of your travels and imagine all the places I wish I could see."
"I understand. I expected that response and will always expect that response. Perhaps one of these weekends we can sneak away and see some where new together. Of course come back afterwards." He offered only slightly disappointed.

This got a more thoughtful look. "I hadn't thought of that. If it's only for a weekend...as long as my mother didn't find out...." Her smile was full of mischief. "That, melnestae, sounds like a brilliant plan."
"With your...oh, geez. That sounds....messy. I'm glad you're both okay now," she said with sincere relief. "Is this...likely to happen again?""There...will always be a chance, unfortunately. However, the...circumstances of my body's...reconstitution...has allowed for a new method of regulation to be placed inside of me. It will provide more protection against another such event," the young monk replies.
"I am...safe to be around now, though. If a bit...sore." he adds with a small smile. :)
With that, Vai quietly slips her hand into Fei's, and looks back to Sadie. "Everything is better now, Fei is right. So, let's go talk to Dara before we start the first meeting. I really hope that he will listen to me." Vai says earnestly, not seeming to mind - at least for the moment - prolonged physical contact with Fei.
"If you want to know what common practices with flirting are supposed to be, I'm a terrible example. I'm impulsive. I think I mentioned that? I'm forever saying and doing things I shouldn't and jumping in before I'm sure it's a good idea....and I really need to remember that the inner voice is not meant to be heard out loud," she added blushing even more.

Look, I'm sorry, I swear I'm not making fun of you, I really am this hopelessly awkward, and I am attracted to you, but clearly I need to just shut up now before I shove my foot any further into my mouth."
Salis Laughed. "I guess we both are bad examples of common practices then. Well then maybe we should just take things however they come. At least that is what worked for me while I was adventuring and I don't see why this couldn't be treated as such. So perhaps we could do something together this weekend." His vice was calm not serious as he usually sounds. He was happy he decided to come speak to her so soon. He was ill prepare for any of this but it seems to be going fine currently. "Oh I almost forgot. A student has asked for some help with research. He has a deadline that is very soon some I wanted to see if you were up to helping."
