Diplomatic Immunity: Wedding Bells a'Ringing

[Rystil Arden]

*Plydek laughs.*

"And a wit too, I see. Well, of course, I'm sure I don't need to point out that this would be improper, my lady, but that was the point of your joke, yes?"

Tiberius wouldn't know the above SBLOCK, but it isn't a big secret or anything, and you may want to annotate it for the records.

Done, even before I read this bit. [/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

[SBLOCK=unleashed]Cool. Yeah, it's kinda random and doesn't really matter, but it might make sense out of the emerging patterns, and anyway the Rowaini people would know it. At the least, you can use that info for Fedowin, I'd imagine.[/SBLOCK]

"And a wit too, I see. Well, of course, I'm sure I don't need to point out that this would be improper, my lady, but that was the point of your joke, yes?"

"Oh?" Vasha asks, "Well, yes, I guess."

Vasha sips her wine again.

"I wish my Sisters were here. I've not been to many formal functions, and I feel kind of out of place. They would know better."

[sblock=RA]I cheated and glanced above, and I sort of knew that, but not completely. It explains why they thought Vasha was a princess though. Of course, she doesn't know that.[/sblock]

"Ah, sisters. There's nothing like the bond between siblings, is there? I know I'm glad to see Lynestra again--she spends so much time away from home, and it's almost sad that she's going to have to stay out here forever. I remember we were younger when we would go out horseback riding, riding faster and faster and laughing as the horses ran through the breeze, though eventually Kastor would catch up and chide us for sneaking out with his horses. Or when we would dress up in disguise and walk among the commoners to hear the truth of their feelings and do good where we could--that was funny because when she was little we had to dress Lynestra up as a pudgy little girl, it was hilarious!" Plydek laughs, "We should have gotten a portrait made so we could tease her--she's such a stunning beauty that it makes it all the funnier..."

*Plydek sighs.*

"Ah, I love my sisters. And I'm sure you love yours too. Do you have any funny stories about when you were younger?"

[SBLOCK=Bront]No problem I was kinda thinking to tell you you could look since Kirkesh might want to know, though of everyone playing in any of my games, he knew this the most already by chatting on the topic with Vanessa.[/SBLOCK]

Tiberius Lucius Magnus, Male Praetor Warmage

*The two older gentlemen noted the arrivals when Plydek announced them and nodded in acknowledgement, returning to their conversation for the moment. When Tiberius and Claudia reach them, however, the red-blonde haired man who was doing most of the talking turns to greet them.*

"Hello there. Care to join us, lad? My wife will be in shortly, and I'm sure she'll be delighted to talk with yours."

"Whereas mine, on the other hand, will head straight for the man in the armour with the lavender hair, I'd put 100 crowns on it," his companion comments wryly, "You must be Ammon's friend from the Empire, then. I am Atreus."

"And I am Tyrus," the other man adds, though neither of them bow like the younger man did for Vasha, "Just Atreus, eh? Are you going to make me announce you by your full title then, my lord Atreus Atreides V?"

*Atreus snorts.*

"If you choose, though I'll have to share the favour, your Royal Majesty King Tyrus Tyndarea III, Keeper of the Sacred Tower, Sovereign of Lacadia."

"Point taken," Tyrus admits with a laugh.

“Seems I’ve been drawn to those in positions of power as usual, doesn’t it dear heart,” Tiberius chuckles. “This is my lovely wife Claudia, and I’m Tiberius.”

[SBLOCK=Rystil]Not that I've read it yet, I just grabbed it and stuck it in the setting document, but yes I imagine Fedowin will get something from it. [/SBLOCK]Encyclopaedia Altanica Setting Document (Updated)

"Oh, I didn't grow up with my Sisters, I met them later," Vasha says. "Tis our custom to find Sisters we are close to. I guess I've been lucky to find so many so fast, and even a Brother."

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Well, you knew there was going to be a king and a lord in the mix somewhere, so I'm sure it's no surprise they weren't the youngsters," King Tyrus points out with a grin, "Pleased to meet you, Tiberius. And a pleasure, Claudia."

"The same here," Atreus adds, "Now, I know enough about the differences in the Empire to know I can't get a good read of your status at a glance," he looks to Tiberius for most of this, but glances at Claudia at the last, "I do know you're a noble of the High Praetor status, at least, and that you aren't one of those mysterious Archons, as I hear they are all female. But it's hard to know where to peg you--for all I know you might rule a Sphere somewhere too and I should be calling you Lord Tiberius?"

[SBLOCK=unleashed]I could tell based on the speed of your initial response that it was unlikely you had read the whole thing by then [/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

"You live close to your sisters, but you don't get to grow up with them until you find them? Wow, that is indeed a confusing custom, my lady Vasha," Plydek admits, smiling though he doesn't understand at the unusual custom, "Surely it would be easier and a lot more fun to just grow up together with your sisters from the start? I'm sorry you didn't get to have a sister growing up. We tease each other sometimes, but we all have a special bond, and it's just something I wouldn't trade for anything."

 

[Bront]

"No, all I had was Daddy, Mother, and Puddles," she says. "But we still had a lot of fun. I used to love swimming with mom and Puddles in the oasis. Daddy would join in when he could as well."

"But finding Sisters is fun. Sisters are much easier to share pleasure with, and usually much more loving. "

[sblock=RA]Kirkesh would have known having grown up on Rowain as well. And you forgot the lesbian thing, but that's probably on the not-so public knowledge area.[/sblock]
