Tale Weaver's Vampire: The Masquerade Game Board

[ladyphoenix]

Koln, keeping one arm extended farther out than normal as a 'feeler' for distance, closes in. He doesn't want to hurt Ruby, but he wants to see what she can do, so he figures a predictable front kick would be a good gauge of her skill. He telegraphs his move by bringing his back leg close before bringing up his front leg to snap out in front of him. More than likely she should move, and he's interested to see if she will counter/move to the side, or merely back up like an amateur.

Ruby sees the front kick lunging towards her and moves to the right as her left hand parry's his leg. She follows up with her right leg attempting to sweep his back leg. 'Lets' see if he can avoid this..' she said smirking.

Ruby sees the front kick lunging towards her and moves to the right as her left hand parry's his leg. She follows up with her right leg attempting to sweep his back leg. 'Lets' see if he can avoid this..' she said smirking.

"Oomph!" Koln falls on his rump as Ruby sweeps out his leg. He smiles and laughs, placing his palms on either side of his head and springing back to his feet. "Excellent Ruby, well done!" He briskly brushes himself off and resumes his stance. Although she is quite able, he still wants to hold back a bit, so no face contact with his hands nor closed hand strikes. Still, wonder how she handles this... hopes the Amish don't teach their kids how to sprawl. Koln feints, bringing his leg up as if to attempt another strike, before bringing it back down and charging forward, grabbing Ruby's legs as he attempts a double leg takedown.

Mindy looks at the floor "I know...I would have been dead..." There is a moment of awkward silence in the room between the two girls. It's so quiet that Clover can hear Mindy breathing and even hear her heart beat inside her chest.

After a time Mindy speaks again "I want to help ya Angie. Ya know how I am, I'm always helpin' people! Mom would say it's my weak spot and I s'pose she's right! I can go out in the sun and you can't. Of course, I won't do anythin' crazy like capture boys for ya, but I sure can bring ya to parties if ya like! I must say, bein' turned into a vampire sure has made you more of a party animal!" Mindy laughs teasingly. "So what is it you need me to do for ya hun?"

Clover smiled and walked over to her desk, commenting warmly, "Yes, I know I can count on you. I appreciate your help, Mindy. But let's start small." She turned around and help up two envelopes for Mindy to see, written in her refined, yet strong script.
She handed the first to Mindy, "Here. Bring this to the mailroom tomorrow, please. We ordered some things, but I've obviously been having some trouble picking them up. It's a message to the postmaster in the mailroom giving permission for you to pick the packages up in my place."
The second envelope she held up had an address on it: Liverman's, "Ok, Mindy, and this one needs to be hand-delivered to the address on the envelope. It's to make an appointment to meet with this guy. But just play messenger tomorrow and tell us what his response is as soon as we... um... wake up. Ok?"

(I'll write the letter when I have more time later. Gotta go!)

Koln feints, bringing his leg up as if to attempt another strike, before bringing it back down and charging forward, grabbing Ruby's legs as he attempts a double leg takedown.

"Wahh!" Ruby yelps in surprise as she finds herself falling backwards. Having both her legs held brought her at a disadvantage. She squeezes her back muscles to take the impact of the bouncy grass and starts giggling in sport. This was way too much fun. She decided the next best thing was ground-fighting. She latched on to his shoulders as she was on her back, assuming he was facing her and began to turn him over in a pinning wrestling fashion.

(I'll write the letter when I have more time later. Gotta go!)

Mindy takes the letters and looks at them, holding up the letter to the mailroom. "I can do that."

She studies the address on the letter to Liverman "Hmm...not quite sure where this is. I'll prob'ly need a ride but I'm sure I can get Brendon to drive me there. It's good to have upperclassmen with cars who want to get in yer pants!" Mindy giggles. Mindy points to Clover's laptop "Maybe we can type it into Mapquest or somethin'?"

Clover frowned at Mindy as she reached behind her and grabbed a sheet of paper that she had printed out earlier in anticipation of Mindy's not knowing where the house was: Mapquest directions. She handed them over as she spoke, "Yes, I'm sure it's very convenient for you. But, case in point, you're on my time and in my service at the moment. Please refrain from doing anything... immoral."
Having handed over the directions, she smiled, apologetic, "And please, Mindy. Don't think I'm trying to make you're life rough here. I just want you to be safe. Do we really need a repeat of four weeks ago when I had to take you to the emergency room at 4am because you thought you had... contracted something?"

Mindy laughs as she takes the directions from Clover. "Ah ha ha! You remember that! I know it was scary then but 'least now I can look back and laugh! I mean, how drunk was I to sleep with that guy anyway? I saw him again later that week and noticed how much he looks like the dog's been keepin' him under the porch!"

Mindy looks at the directions for a little while and nods "I can get over there. Now I take it this guy's jus' a regular human right? I'm not gonna knock and find a vampire or somthin' right?"

She latched on to his shoulders as she was on her back, assuming he was facing her and began to turn him over in a pinning wrestling fashion.

As Koln and Ruby are "wrestling" with each other in the field a familiar song plays in the background.

"Can you feel the love tonight."

Ruby pins Koln to the ground and the two of you look into each other's vampiric eyes. Koln never noticed the feint glow that emanates from Ruby's yellowish-green eyes showing the beast that lives within her.

I mean, how drunk was I to sleep with that guy anyway? I saw him again later that week and noticed how much he looks like the dog's been keepin' him under the porch!"

"Um... right..." 'What the f*** does that even mean? Dog under the porch? Huh?"

Mindy looks at the directions for a little while and nods "I can get over there. Now I take it this guy's jus' a regular human right? I'm not gonna knock and find a vampire or somthin' right?"

"Well, as far as we're aware, yes, he's a human. I'm assuming you shouldn't have any trouble with him. But, just in case, why don't you take one of your... friends up on an offer to drive you there and escort you to the door? I'd feel better if you took someone with you." She smiled, though sad she couldn't go herself.
After a moment, Clover suddenly felt a disgusted chill creep up her spine as though she sensed someone (or more than one someone) close to her were doing something very, very naughty...
'Hm... I wonder how Koln and Ruby are making out in the field...? Ah... um... I mean... I wonder if they're going at it ok...? Hm... I mean... D***it m***** f****** Clover stop thinking such f****** s***** a** thoughts about your sorry a** lame excuses for friends and give their obvious relationship a m***** f****** rest for just a G** d*** moment! D*** you you're f****** pathetic for obsessing!'
^.^*******
...
'Koln you had better be good to Ruby!'
She sent mental daggers in his direction.

"Wahh!" Ruby yelps in surprise as she finds herself falling backwards. Having both her legs held brought her at a disadvantage. She squeezes her back muscles to take the impact of the bouncy grass and starts giggling in sport. This was way too much fun. She decided the next best thing was ground-fighting. She latched on to his shoulders as she was on her back, assuming he was facing her and began to turn him over in a pinning wrestling fashion.

Koln grins triumphantly as he lifts and drops Ruby to the ground. His victory is short lived however as he fails to get past Ruby's guard and she dominates from her back. Before Koln knows it he is facing her and the sky. At that moment he thinks he hears Socrates chuckle at his expense.

He didn't want to resort to ground-fighting since it would lead to rather awkward positions like this. He has seen enough mixed martial arts in his day to conclude that God looks down upon BJJ stylists. Grumbling he faces her and is frozen. She radiates a certain primal beauty that captures him, er both literally and metaphorically. He smiles up at her and gently strokes her cheek with the back of his hand in a soft pet.

Seizing the opportunity, Koln powers his legs out from under her, moving them against her chest with her left arm between them as he struggles to push her up with the power of his legs and apply an armbar. While he struggles against her better leverage, he is careful not to put too much pressure on the joint, not wanting to hurt her.
