Private Tales Summa cum laude

A private roleplay only for those invited by the first writer
"'Ey, we can be stealthy about all this," Zael said, keeping his voice low. From inside the Game House came a frustrated shout, something to the effect of Where did they go!? Heh, yeah, Delaney's magic sure pulled the wool over their eyes. Or maybe you could say pull the shadows over their eyes.

Of course, if they ended up getting cornered somewhere along this buck-naked adventure through the festive streets of Elbion, Zael was gonna grab Delaney and they were gonna light up the sky, alright. Light up the sky with their—

"Speakin of asses though, our adorin crowd is waitin to see two new moons go prancin down the avenue." He whipped a hand around and smacked Delaney right on her bum, very much enjoying the brief and intense feel (and hoping he hadn't done it too loud to rouse suspicion from any searching guards in the Game House, spoil sports might ruin the fun).

And he just smiled ear-to-ear, waiting to see her reaction.

Delaney squeaked as his hand collided with her ass and she immediately threw a glare at him. She debated punching him but she held herself back. They didn't need to be naked brawling in the alley. She would save that kind of brawling for the bedroom later.

"We shouldn't keep them waiting!" She said with a smile.

She grabbed his hand again and took off down the alley in the direction that the guards hopefully were not waiting.

And away they went.

Fortunately, the guards on their tail had been given the slip. Clear skies ahead out of the alley and back out onto the Avenue. Their adoring crowd gasped...but not for Zael and Delaney. Turned out, Eric and Iliana were already running this Avenue, attracting eyes of all sorts—shocked, lustful, jealous—to their naked forms.

Zael pumped his prop battleaxe high up into the air as he and Delaney ran and yelled after Eric and Iliana, "You! How dare you steal our thunder! Come back here so we can smite you!"

Iliana had glanced back and laughed with excitement. Eric (maybe it was the booze in him) somehow managed to take Zael seriously and looked, at least for a fleeting moment, highly worried about being smote by a berserker and a valkyrie.

Down the Avenue Zael and Delaney chased after Eric and Iliana, a chorus of commentary and gasps and jeers (and more than a few cheers) from the parting festival crowd to accompany the bursts of orange magical lights in the sky above.

At an intersection though, Eric and Iliana crossed just fine...but a horse-drawn carriage was cutting across right as Zael and Delaney were nearing. Stalls and festival-goers had the left and right sides of the street blocked. Time was short and momentum was a bitch and who knew who might be chasing after them?

So, jump in-between the horses and the carriage and over the pole?

Slide or roll underneath the carriage?

Or get creative?

"You! How dare you steal our thunder! Come back here so we can smite you!"

Delaney let out a joyful laugh as they ran and attracted their own attention as the newest attraction on the street.

She pulled up short and felt Zael trying to stop himself before he bowled her over. That would not end well when they both ended up getting trampled by the horses while naked.

"Take us up, Zael?" She asked with a squeeze of his hand.


Zael Castomir
 
"You got it!"

Go under, go in-between, or, if you were a blazin' boy like Zael, launch yourself and your streaking partner up and over. Those horses were about to have the shit scared out of them. Sucks for the guys cleaning the street, but hey, they were used to it.

Zael didn't miss a beat. He clutched Delaney to himself (and, as any young man his age would, he had the distinct awareness that he had a naked girl pressed to him, all of her exciting contours and delightful smoothness his to feel; been a while, huh?) and up they went. The burst of flame from his back scorched the cobbles of the road and elicited a few gasps and shocked yelps, the festival-goers certainly expecting the "Fiery" part of their celebration to remain solely in the sky. Over the intersection crossing carriage they soared, and at the apex of their arc down they went. Little jets of flame from his feet and a less violent burst from his back slowed their descent, and Zael landed on the street running.

"Fuck yeah! I fly better when I'm drunk!"

Up ahead: Papa Mengel's Apothecary. They couldn't possibly have missed it because this cornerstore had the largest sign in all of known Arethil overhanging its façade. Eric and Iliana, their naked forms gleaming like twin stars amidst everything else, turned right at this junction.

"Oi! You two! Perverts! Stop!"

From a good distance behind, a fresh-faced guardsman (who looked just old enough to barely be conscripted into the Anirian Guard had he been born elsewhere) started chasing after them.

Zael laughed as they ran. "What is it with prudes in Elbion?"

Delaney Lennox
 
Delaney liked being held by Zael as much as he liked holding her. She was just guessing based on something between them. She did not mind though. Not in the slightest. She quite liked the King of Flames.

Once they had made their fiery escape from death and landed near Eric and Iliana, they took off running.

"You would think they would be more open about things! Prudes!" Delaney yelled the last part behind her at the guards.

It wasn't too long before the four gave the guards the slip and returned to their starting point to get their clothing.

Delaney would always remember this as one of the best nights of her life!
