Speaker of the Convocation of Fourteen, Chief Keyward of Pandaemonium, untempered.

[He is quick to pull the dagger from his wrist with a smile.]

I expect nothing less. And no, I was not here to assume you wished to engage in intimacy.

[The wound knits itself together quickly.]

I will see you around then, Thancred.
February 5, 2026 at 11:49 PM
Neither.

If it is charm you want, then it will be charm you get. If it is force you want, then that is what you will get.

The choice is yours, Thancred. Though I would prefer the former over the latter.
February 5, 2026 at 9:54 PM
[He moves in closer, grabbing his chin. He forced Thancred to look him in the eye.]

Predictability is something all Thancreds share, and I have known dozens, if not hundreds. None were worthy, all found wanting. Yet the desire they felt, they denied.

Pitiful, predictable, disappointing.
February 5, 2026 at 8:33 PM
Clearly, as we are both from differing realities, yet here we are, now in the same. He had his reasons, of which you cannot ever possibly fathom. Not that you would *allow* me to show you.

And to what end, I wonder. You approached first, now you decide to cast me aside. How predictable, Thancred.
February 5, 2026 at 9:21 AM
I never asked you to reconcile what transpired. Nor do I ask forgiveness for him or myself.

Just as I do not expect you to want to know the reasons why things transpired as they did. You do not know what happened, what transpired that led him and I down that path.
February 3, 2026 at 8:17 PM
No. He remembered. That is what set him apart from the rest. By some grace of your gods, he remembered.

[he shut his eyes, remembering the last time he physically saw his Thancred.]

If you had been there, you would have understood. To call him beyond hope is to call yourself the same.
February 3, 2026 at 6:08 PM
He did, and in great, /intimate/ detail. His exhilaration was quite palpable. Even after I was ousted by the Warrior of Light, he routinely sought me out for comfort, companionship…lust. Until he was suddenly gone.

[There would never be privacy, not while the mark remained.]
February 3, 2026 at 3:40 PM
I look forward to it, Olwen.

[He gave her a curt bow, watching as she stalked off, before disappearing into his teleport.]
February 3, 2026 at 6:25 AM
I did say it would be yet another invasion.

[He seems to stare deeply into his soul. But that would be silly, right? Surely Lahabrea does not have soulsight. It was supposedly a rare gift, and the man never divulged his secrets easily.]

You, however, do not sound very convinced of yourself.
February 3, 2026 at 6:24 AM
A pity it will not heal. What is left if not excision?

[his eyes narrow, considering his options.]

I could remove his mark, but that would be yet another invasion into your already fragile soul...
February 3, 2026 at 4:26 AM
Am I truly a bastard when I've given you some entertainment, Olwen?

[He grins, taking a half-step closer to her.]

You truly are beautiful. I can see why they love you so. Do take care, Olwen.

[His grin fades, then teleports backwards 10 yards]
February 3, 2026 at 4:21 AM
[The moment her hand struck his cheek, he chuckled. Thin whisps of smoke streamed slowly from the corners of his mouth. Red-hot aetherial shackles snapped shut around her wrists, locking together. He knew she could break the bonds on her own with enough force.]

There she is… Beautiful.
February 2, 2026 at 8:23 PM
Clearly, as are you. I see his mark. Identical, yet unique in its own way.

Where did your Lahabrea go, I wonder? What a shame, missing something so indelibly written into your very soul.

Do you miss him, Thancred?
February 2, 2026 at 7:06 AM
It is not something I plan to forget ever. Nor shall I forget your raging beauty.

[He grins. Another dare for her to hit him.]
February 2, 2026 at 6:47 AM
Petty amusement, Olwen.

[He straightens himself back up, straightening his high collar.]

I do retract my statement of your beauty being wasted, though. It is put to perfect use. I pity any man or woman who falls into your trap.
February 2, 2026 at 5:43 AM
[While not particularly gentle, he was firm in holding Thancred's jaw. He watched as his pupils dilated, then turned his head to each side.]

Stress toys, Thancred. I was talking about stress toys.

[He finally released him.]

We shared a bond of trust and passion. Cordial most times. Raw others.
February 2, 2026 at 5:33 AM
Then why do you not walk away?

[He leans down, smiling oh-so-charmingly. Really, he anticipated a slap or a punch from Olwen. He /was/ giving her the chance.]

If I had any inkling, I'd say you did not find me nearly as irritating as you let on.
February 2, 2026 at 5:16 AM
[He grabs Thancred's face, forcing him to look up at him.]

No, it wouldn't, and you know that, don't you?

[His skin felt like burning embers against Thancred's skin. His grip would not be easily gotten out of.]
February 2, 2026 at 5:14 AM
I did not think you did know, but you clearly need something.

Just as you are not the 'right' Thancred that you could not give me the same closure you seek. I know not of what became of him; only that there is a void where there should be something.
February 2, 2026 at 4:51 AM
Aye. That he has...

[He looks at Thancred. He breathed a slow, steady breath out.]

You want something from me, do you not? Speak plain, Thancred, I am in no position to deny you.
February 2, 2026 at 3:51 AM
Or, perhaps I am enjoying being confusing.
February 2, 2026 at 3:42 AM
Then you should know very well that there is no point in attempts to claim a Seat that no longer exists. It has not existed for twelve thousand years.

Since you are aware that you are free to do as you please, I suggest living your own life.

Do not covet that which does not exist.
February 2, 2026 at 12:03 AM
No, I suppose I do not.
February 1, 2026 at 11:58 PM
You were the one claiming I made a “pass” at you, all I did was comment on your beauty being wasted. Nothing so untoward, or wherever your mind brought you.
February 1, 2026 at 1:14 PM
… but of course you are not. You are the Warrior of Light, and inheritor of Azem’s legacy.

That is more than enough to take pride in.
