Diplomatic Immunity: Three on the Boat

[Rystil Arden]

[SBLOCK=Tiberius]*Tiberius sees Creusa in the kitchen. When she notices him, she drops what she is doing to bow deeply, as she begins crying, tears flowing freely from her eyes:*

"Milord, please, I tried my best to be good! I promise, milord! I didn't mean to..."[/SBLOCK]

 

[unleashed]

Tiberius Lucius Magnus, Male Praetor Warmage

[SBLOCK=Rystil]*Tiberius quickly moves across to Creusa, bringing her out of her bow and trying to comfort her as he speaks.*

“You have done nothing wrong that I know of Creusa, I am not here to discipline you.”[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

[SBLOCK=Tiberius]"Really? But I thought..." Creusa replies, instantly working to compose herself, wiping away the tears and rising slowly, though she still trembles just a bit, "I must have been mistaken then, milord. I apologise profusely for my unwarranted actions just a moment ago, milord."[/SBLOCK]

Tiberius Lucius Magnus, Male Praetor Warmage

[SBLOCK=Rystil]“It’s okay Creusa, you’re a free woman now and can act however you feel is appropriate, though it saddens me that the sight of someone of my rank scared you so much. I will take your apology for misinterpretting my arrival though, thank you Creusa, though you never need worry about such a thing from me,” Tiberius replies, lowering himself to make sure Creusa can see him smile.[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

[SBLOCK=Tiberius]"Milord Tiberius, please...please do not think I would ever expect such a thing from you! You saw how I greeted you earlier, yes milord? It was just that she...but I should not say anything ill of milady. She is our guest."[/SBLOCK]

 

[unleashed]

Tiberius Lucius Magnus, Male Praetor Warmage

[SBLOCK=Rystil]“I didn’t think you would Creusa, but it was nice of you to apologise all the same, and it didn’t hurt or diminish me to assure you that you needn’t be frightened of me. As for the bowing, you needn’t bow so in my presence Creusa as I don’t require such obsequious behaviour from anyone, a simple respectful bow of the head is more than enough.”

“As for Kallithyia, you should feel free to say anything you like in front of me Creusa...if she has made you feel uncomfortable or hurt you in any way I will listen and take notice of your words as I would hers. She is indeed a guest of this ship Creusa, but that gives her no right to upset any member of the crew, which includes you.”[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

[SBLOCK=Tiberius]"As you command my lord, then I shall tell you...You must understand, my lord, that in my heart, all I ever wish for is to please milord and my other masters...so you have to understand how it crushed my heart so when after I was as respectful as I could be and tried with my best effort, Milady Kallithyia told me she was going to tell you, Master Tiberius, and the captain as well that I had been disrespectful to her...I felt so dejected...Your disapproval after she said this would make me feel desolated, like I was such a worthless piece of trash that I couldn't even perform my simple tasks, fulfill my simple desire to make my lords and ladies happy with my service...and then she said she decided not to, but when you were speaking with her and then came here, I feared the worst, milord, she seems unpredictable...untrustworthy...perhaps not quite sane, milord...Please, if you feel that having these thoughts about Milady Kallithyia is disrespectful, feel free to discipline me for my disrespect, milord."[/SBLOCK]

[SBLOCK=Rystil]“You shouldn’t feel that way Creusa, no matter what anyone says to you,” Tiberius replies gently, “You are a person who serves others to the best of her ability at all times, remember that even if things don’t go exactly as they should or you would wish them to. As for Kallithyia she’s just a little disappointed that you feel you’re not worthy to be her friend, she’d like to be your friend as she doesn’t have any since her companions were killed in the arena, but that is your decision to make. Hmm, I don’t think she’s quite sane either, but that likely stems from the fact she was forced to kill her friends to survive, and now she just doesn’t know where she fits in the grand scheme of things, or what to do with her future. It’s very sad. No Creusa you’ve said nothing disrespectful, you’re just being honest, and as a free woman you are also free from being disciplined. Remember you no longer have a master Creusa, you are a free woman who can choose her own future, but your master must have loved you very much to free you...”[/SBLOCK]

Kallithyia: Palmaid/Female (Amazon)

RA: [SBLOCK]* I took kalli little time to arrive at her chamber’s door. Yes, it was a small ship but kali still felt a hint of pride at her quickly she had gotten use to the passageways of the ship but it was a fleeting moment of pride as though she had friends she had no one to truly call her own, no one who was even close to be a sister. Catullus had regected her and was completely uncaring about the pain he had caused her. Tiberius was trying to learn her language but had been spying on her and that was very upsetting to the young untrusting Palmaid. Lavinia was a good person but was very disinterested in her in anything other than as a friend… It was nice but the way she reacted when Kalli hinted at more made her doubt they would ever truly be close. At least not as close as her sisters had been. *

* As the young Palmaid slip from her outfit, she left it on the floor were it landed, their deaths weighed heavily upon her strong but slender and elegant shoulders… How could she have killed them. How could she have survived the pits without them and just how was she suppose to live on with out them now that she had escaped the pits? *

* The question went unanswered as she slipped into the cold bed, the warmth of the last occupant had been forgotten already, and tried to sleep… She knew the nightmares would come and their was nothing she could do to stop them… Only the warmth of another could ever stop them. *

OOC: She did lock the door. Her greatsword is near by but its limited usefulness in the tight space has her ready to spring forward with her hands. Oh Free Action: Spot (+7) and Listen (+7) checks before she falls asleep.

[SBLOCK=Tiberius]"She was so cruel...no matter what I did, there was no way to avoid her saying I was being disrespectful...But I suppose that it is fair considering that so many people here are too lenient with me."

"If he had really loved me, Master would have honoured my wish to die with him...I am inferior and not fit to live on my own."[/SBLOCK]
