Conspiracy in Flux?|Flux

[tuo]

After returning from a visit to 'Grandfather' and 'Grandmother', their favorite priests touched by Soahc, Adam and Drake were talking about how things might change now that they are full priests.

Drake holds out a hand and stops Adam. "Did you see that...?"

Adam scratches his head. "Uhh...I don't think so..what did you see?"

Drake gave Adam an annoyed look before silently creeping over to one of the hallways that leads to the condemned priests. Adam looked around nervously as he did so..he never likes even going past this hallway, let alone approaching it. After a few moments Drake shook his head and grumbled. "Could of sworn I saw something...well let's hurry up..we..no you promised we would get together some extra food to put out along with the bread basket. We gotta hurry if you want us to do that."

Adam grinned and nodded. "all right, lets go." The two of them walked off quickly.


Several moments after the twins left..one of the doors in the hallway slowly opened up before a figure silently moved outside and whispered to the occupant of the room. "Remember..do not speak of this and prepare yourself, the time will come soon." He then closes and relocks the door before hurrying out of that wing of the temple.

Hours later found Dreamwarp sitting somberly in front of the mirror in her room, carefully brushing her hair to a black, silky shine. She'd put on her pure black robes today, devoid of ornamentation. Really they were just acolyte robes made to fit a full priest with but the smallest of embroidery over her breast to reassure people she was a full priest and not an overgrown acolyte.

She looked at her reflection and sighed, heavily, going to go see if she could find 'her' boys.

[tuo]

At that moment there is a knock at her door and Adam's voice can be heard. "Hey mistress! Are you in there?"

[Kender Bard]

Dreamwarp gave a start; she'd been reaching for the door when the knock came. "Aye," she said, opening the door. "I was just looking for you, in fact."

[tuo]

Adam grinned at her when the door opened and hugs her. "Haven't seen you since this morning, it's a weird feeling." He smiles and walks into her room and looks around. "Say..did you add anything in here recently..or is it just me?"

[Kender Bard]

"No," she murmured. "Really, it's the lack of things that makes it feel difference."

She kept her voice carefully neutral and idly trailed her fingertips over the top of a cluttered dresser. Remembering what it'd been like to wake up and know that her bed would be empty from henceforth had felt like a blow to the gut.

[tuo]

Adam nodded. "Ah...that's what that is..." He considered things for a moment before smiling and dug into his robes looking for something. "You need a gift!" He smiles and pulls out a piece of paper that has a drawing on it and he hands it over. "For when brother and I can't be with you." The picture is hand drawn by Adam, it is a rough sketch of Adam and Drake with Dreamwarp. Adam and Dreamwarp are snuggling while Drake is standing behind them with his arms crossed and with an irritated look on his face.

[Kender Bard]

Dreamwarp looked at it and couldn't stop the smile that spread slowly. She held it to her chest a moment before setting it down and grabbing Adam in a bear hug, sniffling quietly.

[tuo]

Adam smiled and hugged her tightly and strokes her hair. "Yeah..it's just not the same without you right there when we want or need you.." He nuzzles her softly and gives her a kiss.

[Kender Bard]

Dreamwarp didn't pull away but didn't kiss him back - she just buried her face against his shoulder even more. "I bet Drake is doing a little dance of freedom," she mumbled into his robes.

[tuo]

Adam was about to respond before suddenly spinning her around. "Ow!" Something struck the back of his head lightly before falling to the floor.

"Tch, such little faith in me. Why would I be dancing about that the hottest woman in the whole temple decided we can't share a room anymore?" Drake glared at Dreamwarp from the open doorway. "And now you made me throw your present at Adam's head." On the floor was a small black pair of gloves with bits of metal in the knuckles and on the palm.

(specially made for her, works good for punching, slapping or holding a whip? )

[Kender Bard]

Dreamwarp blinked and picked up the gloves, rubbing her thumbs over the material. "I didn't make you do anything," she said, voice tight with conflicting emotions.

[tuo]

Drake rolls his eyes and harumphs. "Well if that's so then I guess it's my own fault." He smirks and holds out a hand to her. "I heard rumor there might be a dance in the gathering room if you are interested in going."

[Kender Bard]

Dreamwarp shakes her head, setting the gloves carefully with the picture that Adam drew. "No. You two go on and have a good time. You're going to be the center of much intrigue until some new hotshot priests come to usurp that position. Enjoy it while it lasts."

[tuo]

Adam frowns and grabs Dreamwarp's left hand. "Now that's not fair, we wouldn't even be here today if not for you! We are not going to let you stay here and be boring unless you can give us a good reason."

Drake nodded and grabbed her right hand. "I can't believe I'm saying this but he's right. Why do you want to stay in here?"
