Andia: The Revolution

[Eltee]

Aarys sighed. "We'll see, honey."

[Duh]

"Thank you." Mary murmured as she took a few steps away from Aarys towards the door. "I'm sorry..." she whispered, exiting the house.

[Eltee]

Aarys rubbed her eyes. "Didn't see that coming."

[King Acunasti]

"It's all done, sweetheart." Valentin said with a smile, pulling Aarys towards him. He gave her a short kiss on the lips. "I think I'll take another short bath before we go to bed."

[Eltee]

"Me too. After you're done." Aarys said distractedly.

[King Acunasti]

"Whacha thinkin' about, babe?" Valentin asked, rubbing Aarys' arms.

[Eltee]

"I dunno. You. Mary. The kid. The future." Aarys sighed.

[JVElEven]

Spoiler:

Can I play with the kid?

[Eltee]

Spoiler:

Yea. /puppydog eyes

[King Acunasti]

"You gonna surf with me tomorrow morning?" Valentin asked.

[Eltee]

"No! I'd prefer to watch."

[JVElEven]

Spoiler:

That's what she...

Anyways... Duh? You just sort of stopped the conversation. Did it end?

[King Acunasti]

"Alright." Valentin laughed. "It's okay to be a sissy. I won't judge you."

[Leyyuce]

Peter eventually ventured to the door of Aarys and Valentin's abode, standing just outside its entrance and calling their names in succession.

"Aarys? Valentin? Are you in?" His face remained sore from the blow Mary had inflicted, and so he rubbed his jaw idly as he spoke.

[King Acunasti]

Valentin let out irritable sigh, opening the door slowly. "What's up, mate?" he asked tiredly.

[Eltee]

Spoiler:

Ohai, Mark.

"Hi, Peter!" Aarys said.

[Leyyuce]

"Hello," Peter began simply, obviously uncomfortable in interrupting whatever activities the pair had been involved in.

"Mary... mentioned that she had intended to pay the two of you a visit."

[King Acunasti]

"Yeah, she just left." Valentin said. "Everything worked out perfectly. We put an end to it."

[Leyyuce]

Peter misinterpreted Valentin's statement, believing it to reference his own seduction. His features immediately grew flushed.

"She told you of her seducing me, then? I apologize sincerely- I nearly thrust myself upon Aarys as she had commanded, admittedly."

[King Acunasti]

The flames in Valentin's eyes sparked immediately as the sentence spilled from Peter's mouth. Without hesitation...almost as though it was a natural reaction...Valentin swung at Perer's face with all the strength he possessed.

[Leyyuce]

Valentin's white-knuckled fist, clenched with undeniable fury, landed with excruciating force against the one side of Peter's face, its impact generating a resounding 'crack' as his jaw was broken in two. The stunning blow sent Peter harshly to the sand below, eyes wide and wet with reflexive tears as blood began to pour from his shattered mouth and from a narrow gash that ran along his cheekbone.

[Eltee]

"AH! WHAT THE F*CK!" Aarys screamed, running to help Peter. She placed her hand on his jaw, and began to shoot tendrils of healing magic into his face. "Oh, god... What the hell?!? Val!?!"

[King Acunasti]

"Did you hear what he f*cking said!?" Valentin barked back.

[Eltee]

"Yes!" Aarys said. "Operative word being nearly! But you broke his f*cking jaw, what the hell?"

[King Acunasti]

"The fact that he even thought about it makes me want to kill him!" Valentin roared.
