I Do, Do You?

[Kender Bard]

Dreamwarp giggled as she fussed with the cloth-of-gold draped about Adam's body, making sure he was well covered.. for now. Her fellow Lustful, a giggly girl named Karessa (Caress to most people in the temple), laughed and tried to plop an ivy laurel on his head.

"That looks good," Dreamwarp declared, thanking her friend and shooing her off for a moment as she dusted the flour off her hands. Adam looked quite like a statue of some kind, dusted the way he was. His clothes lay in a pile nearby, the only garments on his frame were the ones Dreamwarp had just put there.

"Very good," she amended with a grin. "Strike a pose dear. Let's see how well you do."

[tuo]

Adam grins widely and shifts carefully while thinking of a pose before looking at Dreamwarp with a lusty look and takes on a relaxed look almost like he was leaning against a pile of pillows. "How's this sexy?"

[Kender Bard]

Dreamwarp laughed delightedly, taking Adam's hands and drawing him to her as she kissed him lightly. "That's perfect. You'll be the highlight of the bower." She smiled and tussled his hair, letting her fingertips play in it. "You really are generous. I can't see Drake submitting to this treatment."

[tuo]

Adam grins and kisses her back. "Well I dunno..on a good day I can see him agreeing if you were also part of the display." He winks at her roguishly.

[Kender Bard]

That brought another bubble of laughter from the priestess. "And some days I would be inclined to agree. Come on now, let me monpolize you in public." Taking his hand she led him towards the Lustful bower.

The room resembled nothing so much as a perfumed harem room. Piles of pillows lay strewn all about, with some people lounging on them in various states of repose or activity. The air was thickly perfumed with the smell of incense and carefully scented bodies - as well as undertone of a more primal, earthy scent of sex. The lighting was only dim candlelight, casting the room in a romantic glow as the light was diffused from the haze of incense. Windows were placed about, but completely drawn shut by ruffled, colored curtains. Various recepticles of drink lay all about, some empty, some still with liquid. Bottles of various alcohol could be seen sitting on a low table and little baskets of herbs were placed liberally about the room as well. These were filled with a mixture of aphrodisiacs and contraceptives as well as the occassional hallucinogen.

"What do you think?" Dreamwarp asked.

[tuo]

Adam's eyes widened as he takes in a deep breath and shudders slightly. "It's..perfect..." He gives a wide and silly grin.

[Kender Bard]

"Perfect?" Dreamwarp looked at Adam, a little surprised at his answer. She had expected many answers, but that was not one of them. Her mind mulled this over as she took Adam's hand and drew him to an unoccupied pillow pile, practically falling onto the soft mound and drawing him down with her.

"What do you have there, Dreamie?" one of the Lustful called out, a grinning girl.

Dreamwarp smiled and nuzzled against Adam, oblivious to the powder of flour getting on her. "I have with me the living statue of Lust." She moved her lips next to Adam's ear and whispered, "Pose."

[tuo]

Adam grins and does as Dreamwarp commands, leaning back into the pose he took earlier, only this time he kept a hand firmly on Dreamwarp, fondling her.

[Kender Bard]

The room filled with amused laughter, most of the Lustful finding this new diversion delightful. Many thought it was a pity that Adam was clearly a marked man though - Dreamwarp would not tolerate anyone 'poaching' him and as she was one of the few Wrathful as well, none dared try.

Dreamwarp swelled with delight at having brought merriment to her fellow priests. She nuzzled Adam, kissed him again, murmuring softly against his lips, "Do you really like it here?"

[tuo]

Adam smiles and kisses Dreamwarp back. "I think I could really get used to it in here..I could spend more time with you."

[Kender Bard]

Dreamwarp's gaze was a thoughtful one, devoid of any other connotations as she looked deeply into his eyes. Speaking softly still, she asked, "What do you think of the Lustful? All of us, and our beliefs and tenants."

[tuo]

Adam looks thoughtful. "Well, in a way it's similar to the generosity path..you give people things that can make them happy. But you also get the same thing by giving it. I think it's a wonderful path and I enjoy talking to your friends here."

[Kender Bard]

Dreamwarp considered his philosophy carefully, sliding down so her head rested softly on his chest, her eyes fluttering closed in relaxation. "You know, there is power involved, as there is with all of the paths. Some subscribe to the idea that the Lustful are the most powerful of paths because we are able to tempt and reward anyone with their greatest desire, twisting them to our own designs through temptation."

She tilted her head and looked up at him. "What do you think of that?"

[tuo]

Adam frowned slightly as he thought about it before smiling again. "Well that's something that needs to be done sometimes yeah..but I get the feeling that most the time everybody here just enjoys giving, and receiving the attentions of others on the Lust path, and of course to others from other paths." He gives Dreamwarp a deep kiss. "Besides..who says the Lust's always have to tempt people? They could just as easily offer anything to someone they care for that may make them smile."

[Kender Bard]

"Spoken like a pure spirit," Dreamwarp murmured as she wrapped her arms around Adam and cuddled closely to him, feeling safe and warm next to her lover in the dark, sweet room. "I want you to join the Lustful with me, Adam. Be both. I think you can do it."
