glacier_kittyWell...at 7 I get up to go to Oklahoma (Ryan has an appointment first though). It'll take about 4 hours. I'm gonna blast the Hunchback soundtrack in the car...oh yeaaaah
Kathryn and I continued our RP from before we went to Europe...I shall post it here...the stuff from before is in italics
I start school in exactly a week *cries*
mystery_at_heart44 (3:51:01 PM): (I'll have a new character too) *Walks into the tavern, happily, sitting down at the bar, leaning over the counter looking for anyone working there to order something to eat. her midnight black hair was tied back in braids and while she was in a dress she still carried weapons with her, most of them were hidden under her black cloak*
guardiani_italian (3:52:19 PM): *i walk in, go to a corner. a maid brings me wine and i sharpen my dagger. i look at you...something grabs my attention about you...*
mystery_at_heart44 (3:54:21 PM): (awesome!) *spots the maid and pats the counter with her hand to her get attention* You there! I'd like something to eat, I've been walking for days and had no more than some bread..what can I buy with these coins? *holds out her hand with 5 gold coins resting in it. the maid takes them but doesn't say anything and disappears into the back to bring out whatever was worth 5 coins.* *looks to you* Musn't be much, or she would have let me order
guardiani_italian (3:55:49 PM): yeah i really don't like her...i only come to this tavern to sharpen my knife...i really dunno why...
mystery_at_heart44 (3:57:36 PM): *smiles and points to the wine she brought you* Maybe that's another reason? Do you know if the food is good here? I may have just ordered a pile of rubbish now... *laughs quietly and looks at the door the maid went into then back to you* My name's Fayette, and you'd be...?
guardiani_italian (3:58:56 PM): my name's gloria...and the food's horrible...just like the tavern owner...would you like me to take you to a better tavern?
mystery_at_heart44 (4:00:18 PM): *grins and looks to the door again then back to you* Yes...but first...do you have a piece of paper and a pen I could borrow? I'd like to let our friend know where we went to
guardiani_italian (4:01:20 PM): *opens my pouch* yep..here's a pen too...i'm sorry i don't have an inkwell though...it may leak in my bag...*hands paper and pen to you*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:02:53 PM): *nods and takes them both, setting them on the counter, speaking while looking at the paper, preparing to write* It'll be brief anyways *begins to write a short note, after she stands and walks over to you, handing the pen to you* Thank you, Gloria
guardiani_italian (4:03:17 PM): no problem...let
guardiani_italian (4:03:34 PM): us go before she finds it...you do not wanna see her when she's mad
mystery_at_heart44 (4:04:27 PM): *laughs* Oh I've seen pleanty of anger, none I couldn't handle... *holds out an arm towards the door* Lead the way, my friend
guardiani_italian (4:05:43 PM): *takes your hand in mine* there's a nice little tavern down the street..the owner is funny and nice and the food is the best i've ever had...the people all know me...they'd love to meet you i bet
mystery_at_heart44 (4:07:20 PM): *smiles and nods lightly* I'd be happy to meet them, hopefully they'll take a bit of pity on me after this lady took my only few coins left in exchange for what few may refer to as food
guardiani_italian (4:08:40 PM): she always does that *starts walking* i really, really have no clue why i go in to sharpen my knife...isn't this path nice? i go here every day
mystery_at_heart44 (4:10:07 PM): *follows, looking around, nodding in approvement* Yes, it is lovely, much better than I have seen
guardiani_italian (4:10:49 PM): ah we're here *nods to the tavern* now doesn't it look better than the other?
mystery_at_heart44 (4:11:56 PM): *smiles and looks to the tavern* From the outside, yes it does, I'm sure the inside is just as nice, I thank you again
guardiani_italian (4:12:28 PM): sure...you can have some of my coins to...*walks inside and is hit with lovely music*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:14:28 PM): *is somewhat suprised by the music, she's never been to a tavern with such music before. right away she could tell this would be a favorite tavern of hers, it felt so much more inviting than the other, but what can she say? she was desperate and wanted somewhere to go, looking around she doesn't say anything, simply following her new friend*
guardiani_italian (4:15:33 PM): this is one of my fave songs ever...i know the musician personally..*suddenly everyone sees the newcomers and yells "yaaay gloria is back!!"*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:16:28 PM): *laughs boldly, leaning over to you to speak* you seem quite popular here, my friend, it seems I have a long way to go
guardiani_italian (4:18:22 PM): ahh, everyone loves newcomers and regulars alike..*raises voice to be heard over everyone* hey everyone! this is my new friend! she was in the tavern the rolling stone *everyone laughs hystarically* aaah don't worry she'll never go there again!
mystery_at_heart44 (4:19:32 PM): *smiles and watches everyone's expressions, loving the emotion and small town feel of the tavern, keeping quiet still until it seemed approperate*
guardiani_italian (4:20:06 PM): *everyone comes up to meet you. the tavern owner gets you some food and drink*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:20:46 PM): *smiles and takes a seat after waving to everyone with one swift hand motion* Thank you for your kindness
guardiani_italian (4:21:36 PM): no problem..if you'd like you could come over to my house later...you look a very wandering type...
mystery_at_heart44 (4:22:57 PM): *nods, watching as her food and drink are brought to her and set before her* Yes, I do a lot of traveling...I'm in my prime, I found nothing better to do than explore the world, it's such a thrill *she picks up the cup and looks at it, trying to figure out what it is, but sips at it anyways*
guardiani_italian (4:24:53 PM): i like traveling too...maybe i could explore the word with you...sadly i've never been beyond the mountains...you'll be able to see them in the morning...they're so beautiful...drink is good eh? the owner won't tell her secret of what it is or how to make it, but i love it...it makes me feel so good after
mystery_at_heart44 (4:26:49 PM): *laughs quietly, taking another sip* It is very good *she sets the glass down and looks to the plate, picking up some food and eating it, swallowing quickly* The food is very good too...makes me curious as to what the food at the other place would have been like, wonder if she's still digging through the garbage for it *laughs at the thought*
guardiani_italian (4:28:05 PM): *laughs hystarically* i had it and was sick for a week...i dunno how the regulars eat it...can you believe it?! she actually has regulars! she knows to stay away from me though
mystery_at_heart44 (4:29:30 PM): *smiles and nods* I guessed she would have had some, or the tavern wouldn't still be running, but I suppose this isn't our problem now *she pauses for a moment, eating at her food and sipping at her drink before speaking again* I think I know your purpose at the other tavern
guardiani_italian (4:30:45 PM): oh really? cause i've been trying to find out for over five years...i kept thinking i would never go back again...but something drew me every night
mystery_at_heart44 (4:32:21 PM): *smiles and nods* You go there to search out those like me *she takes another bite of her food, trying not to shove it all in her mouth, but take her time and enjoy the flavor*
guardiani_italian (4:33:44 PM): *blushes and gestures to the people* well..i have met others and brought them here...not as awesome as you though
guardiani_italian (4:33:54 PM): (i gotta help my mom with something, brb)
mystery_at_heart44 (4:34:00 PM): (alright)
mystery_at_heart44 (4:35:23 PM): *smiles, blushing lightly, swallowing her last bite* I haven't done much to deserve that title, I wander around from town to town, spending the evening in the presence of others
guardiani_italian (4:40:40 PM): yes, but you're so beautiful...i felt something as soon as i saw you...tonight i've felt the strongest pulling to go to that tavern as i've ever felt
mystery_at_heart44 (4:42:30 PM): *smiles and finishes eating the food, holding the cup in her hand* Tis fate I suppose, I wasn't aware I was in such danger that a friend might come along to help me *she giggles quietly*
guardiani_italian (4:43:45 PM): *puts arm around your shoulder* well i'll never leave you...even if you do travel around a lot..i'd miss you too much...would you like more of the drink?
mystery_at_heart44 (4:44:59 PM): *looks to her glass which still has some in it, but not a lot, drinking the rest of it and then setting it down on the counter of the bar, though Gloria asked the question, she aimed her answer at the bar tender* yes please
guardiani_italian (4:45:41 PM): *bartender fills it up and i get some for myself* cheers!
mystery_at_heart44 (4:46:24 PM): *smiles and holds the newly filled glass up* cheers
guardiani_italian (4:47:24 PM): *drinks deeply in one gulp and slams cup on the table in triumph. everyone claps*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:48:52 PM): *laughs and watches, clapping along with everyone before simply sipping at the drink*
guardiani_italian (4:49:46 PM): would you like to hear a song? my friend aurora here can make the most beautiful music *nods to aurora*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:50:32 PM): *looks over to Aurora who waves and she waves back, then she looks back to you* Yes, I'd love to hear some music
guardiani_italian (4:51:20 PM): *nods to aurora, who gets up on a table and starts singing the forest of the moon*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:52:04 PM): *smiles and listens to the music, still sipping at the drink, happy to have gone to the other tavern, simply because it brought her to this one*
guardiani_italian (4:52:56 PM): *her singing gets more and more intense and epic...i'm amazed cause i've never heard her sing like this before*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:54:03 PM): *smiles and watches, enjoying it just as much as everyone else but isn't as stunned as she has never heard her sing before*
guardiani_italian (4:54:38 PM): *everyone starts crying from her singing. i put my arm around you and hum to the music*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:55:32 PM): *smiles and looks to you, then to Aurora once more, closing her eyes and enjoying the song*
guardiani_italian (4:56:16 PM): *watches as you fall asleep, then pick you up and silently walk out of the tavern, walking to my house*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:57:16 PM): *sleeps peacefully, not even realizing she had fallen asleep, normally it took her hours to fall asleep, not minutes*
guardiani_italian (4:58:04 PM): *walks into my house and lays you on my bed, and falls asleep on the floor next to you, still having the song play in my head*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:59:18 PM): *sleeps until exactly midnight, then sits up quickly, looking around having no idea where she was*
guardiani_italian (5:00:18 PM): *wakes up too, feeling something is wrong, and sees you sitting up* ah, you've woke up..don't be frightened, you're at my house
mystery_at_heart44 (5:02:03 PM): *sighs in relief and looks to you* What time is it, do you know? *looks out the window* the moon is low
guardiani_italian (5:03:03 PM): it is midnight...and i feel an evil presense...*goes and gets my sword*
mystery_at_heart44 (5:04:21 PM): *gets up and goes to the window, looking out of it, curious as to what this evil presence might be, she was never nervous when threatened, simply nervous when she was losing a fight*
guardiani_italian (5:05:05 PM): *suddenly, a knocking is heard on the door* you can fight right? be ready for anything
mystery_at_heart44 (5:06:25 PM): *laughs quickly, looking at where her weapons may be, putting them on her* Do I know how to fight? I've fought many times...I'm espically good with the bow
guardiani_italian (5:07:11 PM): ah good...i love the sword...i'm considered a swordmaster here...*noticed the knocking stopped*...well that's strange...
mystery_at_heart44 (5:08:15 PM): *looks towards the door and then freezes for a moment, pulling out her bow slowly, sure whatever it was it either left or was going to find another way to attack..but why would they have knocked if they were a threat? she wondered...*
guardiani_italian (5:09:10 PM): *draws sword and opens the door and looks outside* hmm that's strange...nothing is there...
mystery_at_heart44 (5:09:39 PM): *goes back over to the window, still not lowering her bow*
guardiani_italian (5:10:23 PM): *looks on the roof. something is trying to break it in* watch out watch out there's something on the roof!!
mystery_at_heart44 (5:11:40 PM): *looks up, still not panicing, looks to you after, heading towards the door* It'd be best if you attack from outside then *smiles*
guardiani_italian (5:12:50 PM): *smiles back and climbs on the roof. the thing has a second to look at me before i stab it and it dies*
mystery_at_heart44 (5:13:30 PM): *laughs, still down on the ground watching* well that was fun *she spoke with sarcasm but at least it was dead now and she put her bow back and her arrow back into the quiver*
guardiani_italian (5:14:28 PM): *hauls the thing down from the roof. it's a person* i wonder why he was trying to break in? i've never broke the law in my life
mystery_at_heart44 (5:15:07 PM): *shrugs* let's bring him inside then and go through his stuff...maybe we'll find something *goes back into the house*
guardiani_italian (5:15:40 PM): *carries him inside and takes off the mask he's wearing* i've never seen him in my life...
mystery_at_heart44 (5:16:19 PM): (brb i'm recording myself singing)
guardiani_italian (5:16:27 PM): (kay)
mystery_at_heart44 (5:20:02 PM): (alright sorry lol) *gasps lightly and closes the door quickly* I have...
guardiani_italian (5:20:14 PM): oh no...who is he?
mystery_at_heart44 (5:21:28 PM): *sighs and bows her head lightly, speaking softly* my brother
guardiani_italian (5:22:04 PM): you..brother...i'm so sorry...but what was he doing trying to break in?
mystery_at_heart44 (5:23:57 PM): *sighs and sits down, looking at him, unable to take her eyes off him* He was consumed as a boy by an evil power...my father innocently brought home this stone he was given one day, so I was told...I wasn't there, luckily...my whole family was consumed with an evil power cast from this stone...
guardiani_italian (5:24:45 PM): oh no...i feel bad about killing him...but i guess it was better for him?
mystery_at_heart44 (5:25:40 PM): *shrugs lightly* He might have been after me...so it's probably better for both of us that he's gone now...just makes me wonder...
guardiani_italian (5:26:21 PM): *pats shoulder* would you like to bury him in the woods?
mystery_at_heart44 (5:26:53 PM): *nods lightly* Yes I suppose that would be best..the sooner the better as well, I don't know what effects death has on this magic
guardiani_italian (5:27:43 PM): i don't either...i know the perfect spot in the forest, where no one would find him...*gets shovel*
mystery_at_heart44 (5:29:07 PM): *nods lightly, ready to follow her, with her brother in her arms*
guardiani_italian (5:29:24 PM): *walks to the spot and starts digging*
mystery_at_heart44 (5:30:28 PM): *inspects her brother as he lay there, going through his pockets and bags pulling out papers and such*
guardiani_italian (5:31:01 PM): *keeps digging* so where were you when they were infected with the evil magic?
mystery_at_heart44 (5:31:43 PM): *smiles* I was traveling...as I still am...I suppose I'm honestly traveling to avoid my family
guardiani_italian (5:32:44 PM): ah...my family all died in battle...i was so heartbroken...now i just have you and the people in the tavern
mystery_at_heart44 (5:34:15 PM): *nods as she watches the hole get dug* I can understand...as far as I'm concerned that night my family died as well, their bodies just need to catch up *sighs lightly*
guardiani_italian (5:34:49 PM): *stops digging, for the hole is dug* now he shall have true peace
guardiani_italian (5:34:55 PM): (brb gotta eat dinner)
mystery_at_heart44 (5:34:58 PM): (alright)
mystery_at_heart44 (5:37:55 PM): *nods and drags her brother into the hole, his papers and such from the pockets off to the side and she looks into the hole* I'm sorry you had to go like this, my brother
mystery_at_heart44 (10:35:00 PM): *she stands by her brother's grave looking down into it before quickly falling to her knees and shoving dirt into the hole unable to look at the body anymore*
guardiani_italian (10:35:20 PM): *hugs you*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:36:54 PM): *returns the hug with a sigh, then looks to her with a small smile* It's alright, my friend...let's go get some tea or something to eat
guardiani_italian (10:37:34 PM): *both of us walk in my house...i make tea and get some bread*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:38:04 PM): *smiles and takes a seat, looking around once more* I don't know if I've said this, but you have a lovely place
guardiani_italian (10:38:43 PM): *looks around and nods* i have stuff from everywhere i've traveled
mystery_at_heart44 (10:39:21 PM): *grins, now curious. she stands and looks carefulyl at each piece, trying to figure out to herself where they came from*
guardiani_italian (10:40:08 PM): *smiles and hides it in my drink* i hardly know where they came from..if you know, you're good..
mystery_at_heart44 (10:41:04 PM): *shakes her head lightly, looking from one piece to the other* I'm afraid I can't tell...but they're all lovely nonetheless
guardiani_italian (10:41:45 PM): yep *takes a bite of bread* now i made this myself
mystery_at_heart44 (10:43:55 PM): *smiles and takes her seat once more, reaching for a piece of bread before breaking a piece off of it and happily putting it into her mouth* mmmmm *she swallows the piece before speaking happily* Oh, it's wonderful
guardiani_italian (10:44:44 PM): *blushes* you're too kind...for some reason it makes you sleepy...have never figured out why *yawns*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:45:41 PM): *giggles and looks to the bread, putting another piece in her mouth and swallowing that just as she had done before* Maybe some chemicals in the bread combine with something in the body...but I don't know, I'm not a doctor
guardiani_italian (10:46:16 PM): me either..i always eat my bread at night so i'll sleep well
mystery_at_heart44 (10:47:03 PM): *nods once and holds the bread up slightly before lowering it* That's sense in action right there *she spoke as the bread was being held up but lowered it after to eat some more*
guardiani_italian (10:47:48 PM): oh yes..i won't eat a lot tonight in case we get attacked again *slips more of my tea*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:49:06 PM): *she shrugs lightly, finishing up a pice of the bread* I don't think we'll be attacked again any time soon
guardiani_italian (10:49:55 PM): i hope not...i'll keep my sword close, just in case. *notices you're getting sleepy*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:52:37 PM): *nods once before taking a sip of tea that was sitting on the table infront of her* I suppose that's a wise thing to do
guardiani_italian (10:53:21 PM): yes, i don't want you to get hurt...though you seem you can defend yourself very fell *laughs*
guardiani_italian (10:53:23 PM): *well
mystery_at_heart44 (10:54:28 PM): *laughs too with a nod* I've have practice, I'm afraid
guardiani_italian (10:55:48 PM): yes, probably from spending your life wandering the wild..*yawns again*...well i can hardly stay awake longer. i shall talk to you in the morning...where are you planning on sleeping?
mystery_at_heart44 (10:56:11 PM): *nods* Yes....I feel the bread's effect...
guardiani_italian (10:56:44 PM): you can sleep in my room if you'd like..*yawns again*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:57:29 PM): *raises an eyebrow* but where will you sleep?
guardiani_italian (10:58:21 PM): on the little couch over there *points*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:58:46 PM): *shakes her head, standing and going over to the couch* I'm fine with a couch, it's your bed, I feel you should sleep in it
guardiani_italian (10:59:35 PM): *usually i would object, but i'm too tired to, so i walk to my bed and immeditely falls asleep*
mystery_at_heart44 (11:00:00 PM): *lays down on the couch and falls into a deep, restful sleep*
guardiani_italian (11:00:45 PM): *it is morning...i wake up before you, having eaten less of the bread*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:13:43 PM): *Slowly opens her eyes from a peaceful sleep, looking around the room slowly, trying to bring this world back into focus*
guardiani_italian (8:14:14 PM): *i walk into the room and notice you're awake* good morning. breakfast?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:15:31 PM): *nods and slowly sits up, reaching up high and stretching* Yes, thank you
guardiani_italian (8:16:26 PM): *gets some fruit and tea and another kind of bread and sets in on the kitchen table. i gesture for you to come and sit with me*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:17:34 PM): *slowly stands and makes her way over to the table before sitting down on the seat and looking to the fruit and tea, blinking a few times before taking some and nibbling at them*
guardiani_italian (8:18:24 PM): *bites into an apple* now there's an apple tree near the back of my house...has the best apples ever
mystery_at_heart44 (8:19:09 PM): *takes an apple out of curiousity and bites into it, chewing a moment with her eyes closed before nodding and opening them* Yes, they're wonderful...nice and juicy
guardiani_italian (8:19:55 PM): oh yes..i dunno how a tree can produce something so wonderful...it's like it's magical or something
mystery_at_heart44 (8:20:39 PM): *simply nods before taking another bite and chewing it slowly, enjoying the juices and the taste of the apple, quickly finishing it up*
guardiani_italian (8:21:24 PM): *drinks the rest of my tea* so...what would you like to do today? explore my city? or have you seen it already?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:22:29 PM): *She shrugs slightly and takes the last sip of her tea before setting the empty cup down on the table infront of her* I'd love to see your city
guardiani_italian (8:22:57 PM): ah yay then *gets a cape and small dagger* well i'm ready
mystery_at_heart44 (8:23:47 PM): *giggles and takes some time to get ready, making sure she wasn't leaving anything behind before heading towards the door* As am I
guardiani_italian (8:24:37 PM): *holds the door open for you, and we stroll down the path to the city. i have an urge to hold your hand*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:26:07 PM): *walks silently with you, looking around at the scenery as it slowly passes by, finding it lovely*
guardiani_italian (8:27:00 PM): *the city is drawing near. people wave to us as we walk by. a church bell rings in the distance*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:28:13 PM): *She giggles as she waves back to the people, knowing they're wondering who she was unless they all somehow were sitting in that tavern last evening*
guardiani_italian (8:29:34 PM): here in this city, everyone knows each other. word of you will spread. they usually don't see me walking with a woman *laughs*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:31:25 PM): *giggles as well, but pauses after she's done, asking herself if she should ask or not, but she deicides to* So, you must be popular with the men?
guardiani_italian (8:32:19 PM): ah of course since i am a man...girls just..don't seem to like me *looks sad for a moment*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:33:13 PM): *frowns lightly before speaking quietly* I don't see why not
guardiani_italian (8:34:18 PM): i've never had a girlfriend...you're the first to actually take an interest in me..
mystery_at_heart44 (8:35:15 PM): *smiles weakly with a single nod before looking around once more* It's such a beautiful city
guardiani_italian (8:36:01 PM): definitely...the only city i'd stay in...and i've been to a lot of cities. just the feel, the atmosphere...it connects with me
mystery_at_heart44 (8:37:27 PM): *nods and she continues to look around, in every direction, soaking it all in* I wouldn't mind spending my life here
guardiani_italian (8:38:27 PM): yes, i'd love for you to stay here *starts figeting and blushes* uh..well here's the town's church..beautiful no?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:39:02 PM): *giggles quietly to herself and nods* It's just as beautiful as the city itself
guardiani_italian (8:39:24 PM): want to go inside?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:39:47 PM): *She shrugs and looks to the doors* I suppose it wouldn't hurt any
guardiani_italian (8:40:42 PM): *opens the doors. a beauiful choir is singing in latin* i wish i knew latin *sighs* it sounds so beautful
mystery_at_heart44 (8:41:38 PM): *takes a seat in a pew quietly, looking to him and patting the seat beside her, letting him sit before she spoke quietly* I know several languages but I'm afraid Latin isn't one of the,
mystery_at_heart44 (8:41:39 PM): them*
guardiani_italian (8:43:17 PM): *sits next to you* ah we both can learn someday *closes eyes and lets the beautiful music sweep over me. unconciously my hand creeps next to yours*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:45:18 PM): *doesn't really notice unless the hands make contact in which she'd naturally pull away, not sure if it were by accident or not. she just sits quietly and listens as well otherwise*
guardiani_italian (8:46:01 PM): *the music lulls me to sleep, stopping my hand*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:46:51 PM): *glances over to him and finds him sleeping, she can't help but giggle quietly but says nothing*
guardiani_italian (8:48:11 PM): *a few minutes later a priest comes and sees me sleeping with you sitting quietly next to me. he asks who you are since he's never seen you before*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:49:20 PM): *smiles warmly and looks to the priest* (I forget her name...*makes something up*) I'm Diana...i'm new and my friend here was showing me around the city
guardiani_italian (8:50:18 PM): be welcome to come here anytime..the doors are open always...how come he fell asleep?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:51:26 PM): *speaks softly, but happily* I'd hate to say it was this beautiful music...but it's just so soothing...
guardiani_italian (8:53:02 PM): yes, my child, it put me to sleep once also *he taps me on the shoulder a few times and i open my eyes* father frank? *i say groggly, but happily*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:53:50 PM): *quietly watches as he wakes the other, now truly believing they all did know eachother here*
guardiani_italian (8:54:38 PM): *hugs father frank* it's so good to see you again. have you met my friend yet?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:59:28 PM): (welcome back lol)
guardiani_italian (8:59:39 PM): (stupid computer lol)
mystery_at_heart44 (8:59:48 PM): (awww, need me to post again?)
guardiani_italian (8:59:54 PM): (yep)
mystery_at_heart44 (8:59:59 PM): *nods lightly and answers for him* He knows my name and why you fell asleep...he knows that much
guardiani_italian (9:00:43 PM): ah *tells the story of how we met and everything that happened up till now*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:01:21 PM): *listens and finds it interesting even though she was there, obviously*
guardiani_italian (9:03:01 PM): ah! my child, we must tell the whole city you're here! we must ring the bells!! *he walks off the fild the bell ringer* *i groan softly* i told you the whole city would know of you soon
mystery_at_heart44 (9:04:15 PM): *laughs quietly and shrugs* I suppose that means I won't be leaving any time soon then...nobody will let me
guardiani_italian (9:04:39 PM): *laughs too* no one usually wants to leave
mystery_at_heart44 (9:05:01 PM): *nods and looks around the church* That's a very good point there, my friend
guardiani_italian (9:06:02 PM): *points to all the paintings on the walls and is about to say something when the bells start to ring. i cover my ears cause they're loud*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:06:36 PM): *looks up to the ceiling, mainly in the direction the sound would be coming from and simply laughs*
guardiani_italian (9:07:47 PM): *people start coming into the church, knowing someone new has arrived. they notice you instantly and soon you have a crowd of people around you*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:08:32 PM): *giggles as she looks to each of them holding out her hand like bait for a fish, just to see who'd shake it* (I'll brb)
guardiani_italian (9:08:38 PM): (kay)
guardiani_italian (9:09:19 PM): *i smile a remember all those years back when the same thing happened to me*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:13:53 PM): (bacl)
mystery_at_heart44 (9:13:55 PM): (back*)
guardiani_italian (9:14:07 PM): (ah what were you doing?)
mystery_at_heart44 (9:14:17 PM): (emily had to do something quick)
guardiani_italian (9:14:21 PM): (ah ok)
guardiani_italian (9:15:12 PM): (i think we should stop rping at 11 my time so we can talk before i go on vacation lol)
mystery_at_heart44 (9:15:23 PM): (alright)
guardiani_italian (9:15:43 PM): (post away lol)
mystery_at_heart44 (9:16:07 PM): (lol alright)
mystery_at_heart44 (9:16:49 PM): *giggles, enjoying the company but it was slightly odd to her because she wasn't used to such publicity or attention*
guardiani_italian (9:17:34 PM): *the bells ring for over an hour, and we have to walk out of the church cause of all the people*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:18:28 PM): *follows you out, happily, then coming up with an idea* There should be a town party or meeting of some kind, so I'm not constantly bombarded with such attention
guardiani_italian (9:19:30 PM): yes, that's a great idea..when the bells stop ringing i shall announce it to everyone here *looks around* which is almost the whole city *laughs*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:20:02 PM): *laughs as well with a nod, keeping quiet and waiting for that moment to arrive*
guardiani_italian (9:20:44 PM): *finally they stop, and a deep quiet comes over the town. i shiver*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:21:37 PM): *giggles and gently pats him on the back,* There, there, my friend, the silence doesn't hurt... *she was joking of course, but she wanted to cheer him up*
guardiani_italian (9:22:51 PM): *pats you on the shoulder* yes yes..*raises voice to the crowd* there shall be a town meeting in the town hall tomorrow at 4 pm! we're to meet my new friend!
mystery_at_heart44 (9:24:03 PM): *looks at everyone's reactions as this is announced, finding it highly amusing but she doesn't express it through facial features*
guardiani_italian (9:24:47 PM): *everyone cheers, and goes back to what they are doing before. we are soon alone*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:25:52 PM): *giggles at the sudden loss of attention* Easy come, easy go
guardiani_italian (9:27:07 PM): believe me, you'll have a lot of attention tomorrow *the bells start ringing again* darn the bell ringer! *suddenly goes serious* warning bells!
mystery_at_heart44 (9:27:29 PM): *raises an eyebrow* warning bells? They have those bells in a church?
guardiani_italian (9:28:11 PM): yes, it's the way they're played. can you hear the difference from earlier?
mystery_at_heart44 (9:28:40 PM): *listens carefully and shakes her head slowly* It doesn't matter now...why stand here trying to pick the difference of the bells, if there's trouble?
guardiani_italian (9:29:42 PM): yes *a rider comes* everyone, there's an army, advancing right here to this very town! they'll be here in a few hours!
mystery_at_heart44 (9:30:23 PM): *frowns lightly and looks around* Why would anyone want to destroy such a lovely city?
guardiani_italian (9:30:49 PM): i..i have no idea..unless..did your brother lead them here?
mystery_at_heart44 (9:31:39 PM): *she shrugs and can't help but giggle lightly* My family's not nearly big enough to be an army...
guardiani_italian (9:32:10 PM): but..i don't understand..my city has done nothing wrong..
mystery_at_heart44 (9:32:49 PM): *She shrugs once more and looks in the direction they came* Best not try to figure it out and prepare
guardiani_italian (9:34:14 PM): yes *you and i run back to my house and i get my sword* do you know how to build fortifications? luckly i taught the people in my city how..you could help them
mystery_at_heart44 (9:35:01 PM): *she shakes her head slowly* I don't know how to build them, I'm afraid...
guardiani_italian (9:36:10 PM): oh well, i give you the task of hiding the women and children...get them to the church..in the crypt there's a hidden door. don't worry, the priest will help you
mystery_at_heart44 (9:36:37 PM): *nods once and smiles* Sounds easy enough....just...you try not to get hurt too bad
guardiani_italian (9:37:28 PM): i won't..i've done this it too many places to count..i thought this was the only safe city *pats you on the shoulder* go my friend
mystery_at_heart44 (9:38:41 PM): *nods again and quickly takes off, heading towards the city, knocking on every door, rounding up the women and children and taking them to the church*
guardiani_italian (9:40:09 PM): *i help my men build fortifications around the city, never dreaming it would happen. after it was finished it looked more like a castle than a peaceful city. i unfortunately broke a finger when a stone dropped on it*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:43:07 PM): *double checks the city as the other head towards the church, taking all the time she needs to make sure every single woman and child left for the church*
guardiani_italian (9:44:23 PM): *i meet you at the church...well this is it then...if i die bury me in my backyard *suddenly winces in pain*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:45:13 PM): *raises an eyebrow, wondering where the positive attitude from before went* What kind of talk is that? You'll die because you speak like this...
guardiani_italian (9:46:07 PM): i'm sorry..i'm just so scared..of losing you, of everything once again..
mystery_at_heart44 (9:46:41 PM): *She shakes her head and gives him a hug* I'm not going anywhere, we'll be here, safe in the church
guardiani_italian (9:47:21 PM): but i have to fight too..with my men...though my broken finger may slow me down
mystery_at_heart44 (9:48:14 PM): *She shrugs, backing up a little from the hug, quoting him from before* It's alright, you've done this too many times to count
guardiani_italian (9:48:56 PM): yes, true...can you splint my finger real quick?
mystery_at_heart44 (9:49:57 PM): *smiles and looks to her dress, holding the sleeve and ripping it so there was a long strip of cloth before she quickly snapped it back into place and wrapped it up tightly* This is the best I can do for now...
guardiani_italian (9:51:09 PM): thank you..it hurts less already *blushes* *the sound of a lot of horses marching comes near*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:52:16 PM): *she giggles, giving him a kiss on the cheek, knowing that might give him the confidence to fight with all he has* You'll do fine, my friend...I must go now *she then turns towards the church to head inside*
guardiani_italian (9:53:36 PM): *watches as you go inside, then walks to the front of the battlements with all my men. then nod* you all remember what i taught you? good
mystery_at_heart44 (9:54:33 PM): *She hides away with all the other women and children she had found, going from family to family trying to keep them calm*
guardiani_italian (9:55:56 PM): *the horses charge us. everyone shoots arrows and some riders fall. they soon get near the battlements* draw swords!! fight for your life!
mystery_at_heart44 (9:57:07 PM): *all the women stand in the hiding place of the church, listening to the sounds of the outside world, each standing in fear, feeling the world around them freeze, praying each cry in pain isn't their husband*
guardiani_italian (9:59:15 PM): *i fight with a great ferocity. my men fall around me but i have to time to notice. i am surrounded on all sides* i will not die!! i've gotta stay alive so i can marry my friend!! *at any other time i woulda been deeply embarassed, but i had no time to think since i was fighting for my life*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:01:03 PM): *the mothers try to calm their children as she tries to calm the mothers, hoping and praying this battle wouldn't last long*
guardiani_italian (10:02:28 PM): *the fight lasts for about an hour. our little group miracuously defeats the army. i have scratches all over and a broken left arm. i walk back wearily to the church*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:03:43 PM): *after they all get word, the women and children quickly make their way up to land where they could breathe fresh oxygen. Diana is the last to come out, making sure everyone is safe and sound and out of the hiding place*
guardiani_italian (10:04:41 PM): *i meet you after everyone has come out. i'm practically collapsing from exaustion*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:07:26 PM): *hurries over to him and kneels down beside him* Are you alright? *she didn't know what to say but she needed to say something to see if he was still coincious or not*
guardiani_italian (10:08:15 PM): *slumps down on the ground* we won my friend..we won..*becomes unconcious*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:09:49 PM): *she watches helplessly and then goes to find nurses, not knowing what more to do*

Kathryn and I continued our RP from before we went to Europe...I shall post it here...the stuff from before is in italics
I start school in exactly a week *cries*
mystery_at_heart44 (3:51:01 PM): (I'll have a new character too) *Walks into the tavern, happily, sitting down at the bar, leaning over the counter looking for anyone working there to order something to eat. her midnight black hair was tied back in braids and while she was in a dress she still carried weapons with her, most of them were hidden under her black cloak*
guardiani_italian (3:52:19 PM): *i walk in, go to a corner. a maid brings me wine and i sharpen my dagger. i look at you...something grabs my attention about you...*
mystery_at_heart44 (3:54:21 PM): (awesome!) *spots the maid and pats the counter with her hand to her get attention* You there! I'd like something to eat, I've been walking for days and had no more than some bread..what can I buy with these coins? *holds out her hand with 5 gold coins resting in it. the maid takes them but doesn't say anything and disappears into the back to bring out whatever was worth 5 coins.* *looks to you* Musn't be much, or she would have let me order
guardiani_italian (3:55:49 PM): yeah i really don't like her...i only come to this tavern to sharpen my knife...i really dunno why...
mystery_at_heart44 (3:57:36 PM): *smiles and points to the wine she brought you* Maybe that's another reason? Do you know if the food is good here? I may have just ordered a pile of rubbish now... *laughs quietly and looks at the door the maid went into then back to you* My name's Fayette, and you'd be...?
guardiani_italian (3:58:56 PM): my name's gloria...and the food's horrible...just like the tavern owner...would you like me to take you to a better tavern?
mystery_at_heart44 (4:00:18 PM): *grins and looks to the door again then back to you* Yes...but first...do you have a piece of paper and a pen I could borrow? I'd like to let our friend know where we went to
guardiani_italian (4:01:20 PM): *opens my pouch* yep..here's a pen too...i'm sorry i don't have an inkwell though...it may leak in my bag...*hands paper and pen to you*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:02:53 PM): *nods and takes them both, setting them on the counter, speaking while looking at the paper, preparing to write* It'll be brief anyways *begins to write a short note, after she stands and walks over to you, handing the pen to you* Thank you, Gloria
guardiani_italian (4:03:17 PM): no problem...let
guardiani_italian (4:03:34 PM): us go before she finds it...you do not wanna see her when she's mad
mystery_at_heart44 (4:04:27 PM): *laughs* Oh I've seen pleanty of anger, none I couldn't handle... *holds out an arm towards the door* Lead the way, my friend
guardiani_italian (4:05:43 PM): *takes your hand in mine* there's a nice little tavern down the street..the owner is funny and nice and the food is the best i've ever had...the people all know me...they'd love to meet you i bet
mystery_at_heart44 (4:07:20 PM): *smiles and nods lightly* I'd be happy to meet them, hopefully they'll take a bit of pity on me after this lady took my only few coins left in exchange for what few may refer to as food
guardiani_italian (4:08:40 PM): she always does that *starts walking* i really, really have no clue why i go in to sharpen my knife...isn't this path nice? i go here every day
mystery_at_heart44 (4:10:07 PM): *follows, looking around, nodding in approvement* Yes, it is lovely, much better than I have seen
guardiani_italian (4:10:49 PM): ah we're here *nods to the tavern* now doesn't it look better than the other?
mystery_at_heart44 (4:11:56 PM): *smiles and looks to the tavern* From the outside, yes it does, I'm sure the inside is just as nice, I thank you again
guardiani_italian (4:12:28 PM): sure...you can have some of my coins to...*walks inside and is hit with lovely music*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:14:28 PM): *is somewhat suprised by the music, she's never been to a tavern with such music before. right away she could tell this would be a favorite tavern of hers, it felt so much more inviting than the other, but what can she say? she was desperate and wanted somewhere to go, looking around she doesn't say anything, simply following her new friend*
guardiani_italian (4:15:33 PM): this is one of my fave songs ever...i know the musician personally..*suddenly everyone sees the newcomers and yells "yaaay gloria is back!!"*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:16:28 PM): *laughs boldly, leaning over to you to speak* you seem quite popular here, my friend, it seems I have a long way to go
guardiani_italian (4:18:22 PM): ahh, everyone loves newcomers and regulars alike..*raises voice to be heard over everyone* hey everyone! this is my new friend! she was in the tavern the rolling stone *everyone laughs hystarically* aaah don't worry she'll never go there again!
mystery_at_heart44 (4:19:32 PM): *smiles and watches everyone's expressions, loving the emotion and small town feel of the tavern, keeping quiet still until it seemed approperate*
guardiani_italian (4:20:06 PM): *everyone comes up to meet you. the tavern owner gets you some food and drink*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:20:46 PM): *smiles and takes a seat after waving to everyone with one swift hand motion* Thank you for your kindness
guardiani_italian (4:21:36 PM): no problem..if you'd like you could come over to my house later...you look a very wandering type...
mystery_at_heart44 (4:22:57 PM): *nods, watching as her food and drink are brought to her and set before her* Yes, I do a lot of traveling...I'm in my prime, I found nothing better to do than explore the world, it's such a thrill *she picks up the cup and looks at it, trying to figure out what it is, but sips at it anyways*
guardiani_italian (4:24:53 PM): i like traveling too...maybe i could explore the word with you...sadly i've never been beyond the mountains...you'll be able to see them in the morning...they're so beautiful...drink is good eh? the owner won't tell her secret of what it is or how to make it, but i love it...it makes me feel so good after
mystery_at_heart44 (4:26:49 PM): *laughs quietly, taking another sip* It is very good *she sets the glass down and looks to the plate, picking up some food and eating it, swallowing quickly* The food is very good too...makes me curious as to what the food at the other place would have been like, wonder if she's still digging through the garbage for it *laughs at the thought*
guardiani_italian (4:28:05 PM): *laughs hystarically* i had it and was sick for a week...i dunno how the regulars eat it...can you believe it?! she actually has regulars! she knows to stay away from me though
mystery_at_heart44 (4:29:30 PM): *smiles and nods* I guessed she would have had some, or the tavern wouldn't still be running, but I suppose this isn't our problem now *she pauses for a moment, eating at her food and sipping at her drink before speaking again* I think I know your purpose at the other tavern
guardiani_italian (4:30:45 PM): oh really? cause i've been trying to find out for over five years...i kept thinking i would never go back again...but something drew me every night
mystery_at_heart44 (4:32:21 PM): *smiles and nods* You go there to search out those like me *she takes another bite of her food, trying not to shove it all in her mouth, but take her time and enjoy the flavor*
guardiani_italian (4:33:44 PM): *blushes and gestures to the people* well..i have met others and brought them here...not as awesome as you though
guardiani_italian (4:33:54 PM): (i gotta help my mom with something, brb)
mystery_at_heart44 (4:34:00 PM): (alright)
mystery_at_heart44 (4:35:23 PM): *smiles, blushing lightly, swallowing her last bite* I haven't done much to deserve that title, I wander around from town to town, spending the evening in the presence of others
guardiani_italian (4:40:40 PM): yes, but you're so beautiful...i felt something as soon as i saw you...tonight i've felt the strongest pulling to go to that tavern as i've ever felt
mystery_at_heart44 (4:42:30 PM): *smiles and finishes eating the food, holding the cup in her hand* Tis fate I suppose, I wasn't aware I was in such danger that a friend might come along to help me *she giggles quietly*
guardiani_italian (4:43:45 PM): *puts arm around your shoulder* well i'll never leave you...even if you do travel around a lot..i'd miss you too much...would you like more of the drink?
mystery_at_heart44 (4:44:59 PM): *looks to her glass which still has some in it, but not a lot, drinking the rest of it and then setting it down on the counter of the bar, though Gloria asked the question, she aimed her answer at the bar tender* yes please
guardiani_italian (4:45:41 PM): *bartender fills it up and i get some for myself* cheers!
mystery_at_heart44 (4:46:24 PM): *smiles and holds the newly filled glass up* cheers
guardiani_italian (4:47:24 PM): *drinks deeply in one gulp and slams cup on the table in triumph. everyone claps*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:48:52 PM): *laughs and watches, clapping along with everyone before simply sipping at the drink*
guardiani_italian (4:49:46 PM): would you like to hear a song? my friend aurora here can make the most beautiful music *nods to aurora*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:50:32 PM): *looks over to Aurora who waves and she waves back, then she looks back to you* Yes, I'd love to hear some music
guardiani_italian (4:51:20 PM): *nods to aurora, who gets up on a table and starts singing the forest of the moon*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:52:04 PM): *smiles and listens to the music, still sipping at the drink, happy to have gone to the other tavern, simply because it brought her to this one*
guardiani_italian (4:52:56 PM): *her singing gets more and more intense and epic...i'm amazed cause i've never heard her sing like this before*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:54:03 PM): *smiles and watches, enjoying it just as much as everyone else but isn't as stunned as she has never heard her sing before*
guardiani_italian (4:54:38 PM): *everyone starts crying from her singing. i put my arm around you and hum to the music*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:55:32 PM): *smiles and looks to you, then to Aurora once more, closing her eyes and enjoying the song*
guardiani_italian (4:56:16 PM): *watches as you fall asleep, then pick you up and silently walk out of the tavern, walking to my house*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:57:16 PM): *sleeps peacefully, not even realizing she had fallen asleep, normally it took her hours to fall asleep, not minutes*
guardiani_italian (4:58:04 PM): *walks into my house and lays you on my bed, and falls asleep on the floor next to you, still having the song play in my head*
mystery_at_heart44 (4:59:18 PM): *sleeps until exactly midnight, then sits up quickly, looking around having no idea where she was*
guardiani_italian (5:00:18 PM): *wakes up too, feeling something is wrong, and sees you sitting up* ah, you've woke up..don't be frightened, you're at my house
mystery_at_heart44 (5:02:03 PM): *sighs in relief and looks to you* What time is it, do you know? *looks out the window* the moon is low
guardiani_italian (5:03:03 PM): it is midnight...and i feel an evil presense...*goes and gets my sword*
mystery_at_heart44 (5:04:21 PM): *gets up and goes to the window, looking out of it, curious as to what this evil presence might be, she was never nervous when threatened, simply nervous when she was losing a fight*
guardiani_italian (5:05:05 PM): *suddenly, a knocking is heard on the door* you can fight right? be ready for anything
mystery_at_heart44 (5:06:25 PM): *laughs quickly, looking at where her weapons may be, putting them on her* Do I know how to fight? I've fought many times...I'm espically good with the bow
guardiani_italian (5:07:11 PM): ah good...i love the sword...i'm considered a swordmaster here...*noticed the knocking stopped*...well that's strange...
mystery_at_heart44 (5:08:15 PM): *looks towards the door and then freezes for a moment, pulling out her bow slowly, sure whatever it was it either left or was going to find another way to attack..but why would they have knocked if they were a threat? she wondered...*
guardiani_italian (5:09:10 PM): *draws sword and opens the door and looks outside* hmm that's strange...nothing is there...
mystery_at_heart44 (5:09:39 PM): *goes back over to the window, still not lowering her bow*
guardiani_italian (5:10:23 PM): *looks on the roof. something is trying to break it in* watch out watch out there's something on the roof!!
mystery_at_heart44 (5:11:40 PM): *looks up, still not panicing, looks to you after, heading towards the door* It'd be best if you attack from outside then *smiles*
guardiani_italian (5:12:50 PM): *smiles back and climbs on the roof. the thing has a second to look at me before i stab it and it dies*
mystery_at_heart44 (5:13:30 PM): *laughs, still down on the ground watching* well that was fun *she spoke with sarcasm but at least it was dead now and she put her bow back and her arrow back into the quiver*
guardiani_italian (5:14:28 PM): *hauls the thing down from the roof. it's a person* i wonder why he was trying to break in? i've never broke the law in my life
mystery_at_heart44 (5:15:07 PM): *shrugs* let's bring him inside then and go through his stuff...maybe we'll find something *goes back into the house*
guardiani_italian (5:15:40 PM): *carries him inside and takes off the mask he's wearing* i've never seen him in my life...
mystery_at_heart44 (5:16:19 PM): (brb i'm recording myself singing)
guardiani_italian (5:16:27 PM): (kay)
mystery_at_heart44 (5:20:02 PM): (alright sorry lol) *gasps lightly and closes the door quickly* I have...
guardiani_italian (5:20:14 PM): oh no...who is he?
mystery_at_heart44 (5:21:28 PM): *sighs and bows her head lightly, speaking softly* my brother
guardiani_italian (5:22:04 PM): you..brother...i'm so sorry...but what was he doing trying to break in?
mystery_at_heart44 (5:23:57 PM): *sighs and sits down, looking at him, unable to take her eyes off him* He was consumed as a boy by an evil power...my father innocently brought home this stone he was given one day, so I was told...I wasn't there, luckily...my whole family was consumed with an evil power cast from this stone...
guardiani_italian (5:24:45 PM): oh no...i feel bad about killing him...but i guess it was better for him?
mystery_at_heart44 (5:25:40 PM): *shrugs lightly* He might have been after me...so it's probably better for both of us that he's gone now...just makes me wonder...
guardiani_italian (5:26:21 PM): *pats shoulder* would you like to bury him in the woods?
mystery_at_heart44 (5:26:53 PM): *nods lightly* Yes I suppose that would be best..the sooner the better as well, I don't know what effects death has on this magic
guardiani_italian (5:27:43 PM): i don't either...i know the perfect spot in the forest, where no one would find him...*gets shovel*
mystery_at_heart44 (5:29:07 PM): *nods lightly, ready to follow her, with her brother in her arms*
guardiani_italian (5:29:24 PM): *walks to the spot and starts digging*
mystery_at_heart44 (5:30:28 PM): *inspects her brother as he lay there, going through his pockets and bags pulling out papers and such*
guardiani_italian (5:31:01 PM): *keeps digging* so where were you when they were infected with the evil magic?
mystery_at_heart44 (5:31:43 PM): *smiles* I was traveling...as I still am...I suppose I'm honestly traveling to avoid my family
guardiani_italian (5:32:44 PM): ah...my family all died in battle...i was so heartbroken...now i just have you and the people in the tavern
mystery_at_heart44 (5:34:15 PM): *nods as she watches the hole get dug* I can understand...as far as I'm concerned that night my family died as well, their bodies just need to catch up *sighs lightly*
guardiani_italian (5:34:49 PM): *stops digging, for the hole is dug* now he shall have true peace
guardiani_italian (5:34:55 PM): (brb gotta eat dinner)
mystery_at_heart44 (5:34:58 PM): (alright)
mystery_at_heart44 (5:37:55 PM): *nods and drags her brother into the hole, his papers and such from the pockets off to the side and she looks into the hole* I'm sorry you had to go like this, my brother
mystery_at_heart44 (10:35:00 PM): *she stands by her brother's grave looking down into it before quickly falling to her knees and shoving dirt into the hole unable to look at the body anymore*
guardiani_italian (10:35:20 PM): *hugs you*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:36:54 PM): *returns the hug with a sigh, then looks to her with a small smile* It's alright, my friend...let's go get some tea or something to eat
guardiani_italian (10:37:34 PM): *both of us walk in my house...i make tea and get some bread*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:38:04 PM): *smiles and takes a seat, looking around once more* I don't know if I've said this, but you have a lovely place
guardiani_italian (10:38:43 PM): *looks around and nods* i have stuff from everywhere i've traveled
mystery_at_heart44 (10:39:21 PM): *grins, now curious. she stands and looks carefulyl at each piece, trying to figure out to herself where they came from*
guardiani_italian (10:40:08 PM): *smiles and hides it in my drink* i hardly know where they came from..if you know, you're good..
mystery_at_heart44 (10:41:04 PM): *shakes her head lightly, looking from one piece to the other* I'm afraid I can't tell...but they're all lovely nonetheless
guardiani_italian (10:41:45 PM): yep *takes a bite of bread* now i made this myself
mystery_at_heart44 (10:43:55 PM): *smiles and takes her seat once more, reaching for a piece of bread before breaking a piece off of it and happily putting it into her mouth* mmmmm *she swallows the piece before speaking happily* Oh, it's wonderful
guardiani_italian (10:44:44 PM): *blushes* you're too kind...for some reason it makes you sleepy...have never figured out why *yawns*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:45:41 PM): *giggles and looks to the bread, putting another piece in her mouth and swallowing that just as she had done before* Maybe some chemicals in the bread combine with something in the body...but I don't know, I'm not a doctor
guardiani_italian (10:46:16 PM): me either..i always eat my bread at night so i'll sleep well
mystery_at_heart44 (10:47:03 PM): *nods once and holds the bread up slightly before lowering it* That's sense in action right there *she spoke as the bread was being held up but lowered it after to eat some more*
guardiani_italian (10:47:48 PM): oh yes..i won't eat a lot tonight in case we get attacked again *slips more of my tea*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:49:06 PM): *she shrugs lightly, finishing up a pice of the bread* I don't think we'll be attacked again any time soon
guardiani_italian (10:49:55 PM): i hope not...i'll keep my sword close, just in case. *notices you're getting sleepy*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:52:37 PM): *nods once before taking a sip of tea that was sitting on the table infront of her* I suppose that's a wise thing to do
guardiani_italian (10:53:21 PM): yes, i don't want you to get hurt...though you seem you can defend yourself very fell *laughs*
guardiani_italian (10:53:23 PM): *well
mystery_at_heart44 (10:54:28 PM): *laughs too with a nod* I've have practice, I'm afraid
guardiani_italian (10:55:48 PM): yes, probably from spending your life wandering the wild..*yawns again*...well i can hardly stay awake longer. i shall talk to you in the morning...where are you planning on sleeping?
mystery_at_heart44 (10:56:11 PM): *nods* Yes....I feel the bread's effect...
guardiani_italian (10:56:44 PM): you can sleep in my room if you'd like..*yawns again*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:57:29 PM): *raises an eyebrow* but where will you sleep?
guardiani_italian (10:58:21 PM): on the little couch over there *points*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:58:46 PM): *shakes her head, standing and going over to the couch* I'm fine with a couch, it's your bed, I feel you should sleep in it
guardiani_italian (10:59:35 PM): *usually i would object, but i'm too tired to, so i walk to my bed and immeditely falls asleep*
mystery_at_heart44 (11:00:00 PM): *lays down on the couch and falls into a deep, restful sleep*
guardiani_italian (11:00:45 PM): *it is morning...i wake up before you, having eaten less of the bread*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:13:43 PM): *Slowly opens her eyes from a peaceful sleep, looking around the room slowly, trying to bring this world back into focus*
guardiani_italian (8:14:14 PM): *i walk into the room and notice you're awake* good morning. breakfast?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:15:31 PM): *nods and slowly sits up, reaching up high and stretching* Yes, thank you
guardiani_italian (8:16:26 PM): *gets some fruit and tea and another kind of bread and sets in on the kitchen table. i gesture for you to come and sit with me*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:17:34 PM): *slowly stands and makes her way over to the table before sitting down on the seat and looking to the fruit and tea, blinking a few times before taking some and nibbling at them*
guardiani_italian (8:18:24 PM): *bites into an apple* now there's an apple tree near the back of my house...has the best apples ever
mystery_at_heart44 (8:19:09 PM): *takes an apple out of curiousity and bites into it, chewing a moment with her eyes closed before nodding and opening them* Yes, they're wonderful...nice and juicy
guardiani_italian (8:19:55 PM): oh yes..i dunno how a tree can produce something so wonderful...it's like it's magical or something
mystery_at_heart44 (8:20:39 PM): *simply nods before taking another bite and chewing it slowly, enjoying the juices and the taste of the apple, quickly finishing it up*
guardiani_italian (8:21:24 PM): *drinks the rest of my tea* so...what would you like to do today? explore my city? or have you seen it already?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:22:29 PM): *She shrugs slightly and takes the last sip of her tea before setting the empty cup down on the table infront of her* I'd love to see your city
guardiani_italian (8:22:57 PM): ah yay then *gets a cape and small dagger* well i'm ready
mystery_at_heart44 (8:23:47 PM): *giggles and takes some time to get ready, making sure she wasn't leaving anything behind before heading towards the door* As am I
guardiani_italian (8:24:37 PM): *holds the door open for you, and we stroll down the path to the city. i have an urge to hold your hand*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:26:07 PM): *walks silently with you, looking around at the scenery as it slowly passes by, finding it lovely*
guardiani_italian (8:27:00 PM): *the city is drawing near. people wave to us as we walk by. a church bell rings in the distance*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:28:13 PM): *She giggles as she waves back to the people, knowing they're wondering who she was unless they all somehow were sitting in that tavern last evening*
guardiani_italian (8:29:34 PM): here in this city, everyone knows each other. word of you will spread. they usually don't see me walking with a woman *laughs*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:31:25 PM): *giggles as well, but pauses after she's done, asking herself if she should ask or not, but she deicides to* So, you must be popular with the men?
guardiani_italian (8:32:19 PM): ah of course since i am a man...girls just..don't seem to like me *looks sad for a moment*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:33:13 PM): *frowns lightly before speaking quietly* I don't see why not
guardiani_italian (8:34:18 PM): i've never had a girlfriend...you're the first to actually take an interest in me..
mystery_at_heart44 (8:35:15 PM): *smiles weakly with a single nod before looking around once more* It's such a beautiful city
guardiani_italian (8:36:01 PM): definitely...the only city i'd stay in...and i've been to a lot of cities. just the feel, the atmosphere...it connects with me
mystery_at_heart44 (8:37:27 PM): *nods and she continues to look around, in every direction, soaking it all in* I wouldn't mind spending my life here
guardiani_italian (8:38:27 PM): yes, i'd love for you to stay here *starts figeting and blushes* uh..well here's the town's church..beautiful no?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:39:02 PM): *giggles quietly to herself and nods* It's just as beautiful as the city itself
guardiani_italian (8:39:24 PM): want to go inside?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:39:47 PM): *She shrugs and looks to the doors* I suppose it wouldn't hurt any
guardiani_italian (8:40:42 PM): *opens the doors. a beauiful choir is singing in latin* i wish i knew latin *sighs* it sounds so beautful
mystery_at_heart44 (8:41:38 PM): *takes a seat in a pew quietly, looking to him and patting the seat beside her, letting him sit before she spoke quietly* I know several languages but I'm afraid Latin isn't one of the,
mystery_at_heart44 (8:41:39 PM): them*
guardiani_italian (8:43:17 PM): *sits next to you* ah we both can learn someday *closes eyes and lets the beautiful music sweep over me. unconciously my hand creeps next to yours*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:45:18 PM): *doesn't really notice unless the hands make contact in which she'd naturally pull away, not sure if it were by accident or not. she just sits quietly and listens as well otherwise*
guardiani_italian (8:46:01 PM): *the music lulls me to sleep, stopping my hand*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:46:51 PM): *glances over to him and finds him sleeping, she can't help but giggle quietly but says nothing*
guardiani_italian (8:48:11 PM): *a few minutes later a priest comes and sees me sleeping with you sitting quietly next to me. he asks who you are since he's never seen you before*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:49:20 PM): *smiles warmly and looks to the priest* (I forget her name...*makes something up*) I'm Diana...i'm new and my friend here was showing me around the city
guardiani_italian (8:50:18 PM): be welcome to come here anytime..the doors are open always...how come he fell asleep?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:51:26 PM): *speaks softly, but happily* I'd hate to say it was this beautiful music...but it's just so soothing...
guardiani_italian (8:53:02 PM): yes, my child, it put me to sleep once also *he taps me on the shoulder a few times and i open my eyes* father frank? *i say groggly, but happily*
mystery_at_heart44 (8:53:50 PM): *quietly watches as he wakes the other, now truly believing they all did know eachother here*
guardiani_italian (8:54:38 PM): *hugs father frank* it's so good to see you again. have you met my friend yet?
mystery_at_heart44 (8:59:28 PM): (welcome back lol)
guardiani_italian (8:59:39 PM): (stupid computer lol)
mystery_at_heart44 (8:59:48 PM): (awww, need me to post again?)
guardiani_italian (8:59:54 PM): (yep)
mystery_at_heart44 (8:59:59 PM): *nods lightly and answers for him* He knows my name and why you fell asleep...he knows that much
guardiani_italian (9:00:43 PM): ah *tells the story of how we met and everything that happened up till now*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:01:21 PM): *listens and finds it interesting even though she was there, obviously*
guardiani_italian (9:03:01 PM): ah! my child, we must tell the whole city you're here! we must ring the bells!! *he walks off the fild the bell ringer* *i groan softly* i told you the whole city would know of you soon
mystery_at_heart44 (9:04:15 PM): *laughs quietly and shrugs* I suppose that means I won't be leaving any time soon then...nobody will let me
guardiani_italian (9:04:39 PM): *laughs too* no one usually wants to leave
mystery_at_heart44 (9:05:01 PM): *nods and looks around the church* That's a very good point there, my friend
guardiani_italian (9:06:02 PM): *points to all the paintings on the walls and is about to say something when the bells start to ring. i cover my ears cause they're loud*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:06:36 PM): *looks up to the ceiling, mainly in the direction the sound would be coming from and simply laughs*
guardiani_italian (9:07:47 PM): *people start coming into the church, knowing someone new has arrived. they notice you instantly and soon you have a crowd of people around you*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:08:32 PM): *giggles as she looks to each of them holding out her hand like bait for a fish, just to see who'd shake it* (I'll brb)
guardiani_italian (9:08:38 PM): (kay)
guardiani_italian (9:09:19 PM): *i smile a remember all those years back when the same thing happened to me*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:13:53 PM): (bacl)
mystery_at_heart44 (9:13:55 PM): (back*)
guardiani_italian (9:14:07 PM): (ah what were you doing?)
mystery_at_heart44 (9:14:17 PM): (emily had to do something quick)
guardiani_italian (9:14:21 PM): (ah ok)
guardiani_italian (9:15:12 PM): (i think we should stop rping at 11 my time so we can talk before i go on vacation lol)
mystery_at_heart44 (9:15:23 PM): (alright)
guardiani_italian (9:15:43 PM): (post away lol)
mystery_at_heart44 (9:16:07 PM): (lol alright)
mystery_at_heart44 (9:16:49 PM): *giggles, enjoying the company but it was slightly odd to her because she wasn't used to such publicity or attention*
guardiani_italian (9:17:34 PM): *the bells ring for over an hour, and we have to walk out of the church cause of all the people*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:18:28 PM): *follows you out, happily, then coming up with an idea* There should be a town party or meeting of some kind, so I'm not constantly bombarded with such attention
guardiani_italian (9:19:30 PM): yes, that's a great idea..when the bells stop ringing i shall announce it to everyone here *looks around* which is almost the whole city *laughs*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:20:02 PM): *laughs as well with a nod, keeping quiet and waiting for that moment to arrive*
guardiani_italian (9:20:44 PM): *finally they stop, and a deep quiet comes over the town. i shiver*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:21:37 PM): *giggles and gently pats him on the back,* There, there, my friend, the silence doesn't hurt... *she was joking of course, but she wanted to cheer him up*
guardiani_italian (9:22:51 PM): *pats you on the shoulder* yes yes..*raises voice to the crowd* there shall be a town meeting in the town hall tomorrow at 4 pm! we're to meet my new friend!
mystery_at_heart44 (9:24:03 PM): *looks at everyone's reactions as this is announced, finding it highly amusing but she doesn't express it through facial features*
guardiani_italian (9:24:47 PM): *everyone cheers, and goes back to what they are doing before. we are soon alone*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:25:52 PM): *giggles at the sudden loss of attention* Easy come, easy go
guardiani_italian (9:27:07 PM): believe me, you'll have a lot of attention tomorrow *the bells start ringing again* darn the bell ringer! *suddenly goes serious* warning bells!
mystery_at_heart44 (9:27:29 PM): *raises an eyebrow* warning bells? They have those bells in a church?
guardiani_italian (9:28:11 PM): yes, it's the way they're played. can you hear the difference from earlier?
mystery_at_heart44 (9:28:40 PM): *listens carefully and shakes her head slowly* It doesn't matter now...why stand here trying to pick the difference of the bells, if there's trouble?
guardiani_italian (9:29:42 PM): yes *a rider comes* everyone, there's an army, advancing right here to this very town! they'll be here in a few hours!
mystery_at_heart44 (9:30:23 PM): *frowns lightly and looks around* Why would anyone want to destroy such a lovely city?
guardiani_italian (9:30:49 PM): i..i have no idea..unless..did your brother lead them here?
mystery_at_heart44 (9:31:39 PM): *she shrugs and can't help but giggle lightly* My family's not nearly big enough to be an army...
guardiani_italian (9:32:10 PM): but..i don't understand..my city has done nothing wrong..
mystery_at_heart44 (9:32:49 PM): *She shrugs once more and looks in the direction they came* Best not try to figure it out and prepare
guardiani_italian (9:34:14 PM): yes *you and i run back to my house and i get my sword* do you know how to build fortifications? luckly i taught the people in my city how..you could help them
mystery_at_heart44 (9:35:01 PM): *she shakes her head slowly* I don't know how to build them, I'm afraid...
guardiani_italian (9:36:10 PM): oh well, i give you the task of hiding the women and children...get them to the church..in the crypt there's a hidden door. don't worry, the priest will help you
mystery_at_heart44 (9:36:37 PM): *nods once and smiles* Sounds easy enough....just...you try not to get hurt too bad
guardiani_italian (9:37:28 PM): i won't..i've done this it too many places to count..i thought this was the only safe city *pats you on the shoulder* go my friend
mystery_at_heart44 (9:38:41 PM): *nods again and quickly takes off, heading towards the city, knocking on every door, rounding up the women and children and taking them to the church*
guardiani_italian (9:40:09 PM): *i help my men build fortifications around the city, never dreaming it would happen. after it was finished it looked more like a castle than a peaceful city. i unfortunately broke a finger when a stone dropped on it*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:43:07 PM): *double checks the city as the other head towards the church, taking all the time she needs to make sure every single woman and child left for the church*
guardiani_italian (9:44:23 PM): *i meet you at the church...well this is it then...if i die bury me in my backyard *suddenly winces in pain*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:45:13 PM): *raises an eyebrow, wondering where the positive attitude from before went* What kind of talk is that? You'll die because you speak like this...
guardiani_italian (9:46:07 PM): i'm sorry..i'm just so scared..of losing you, of everything once again..
mystery_at_heart44 (9:46:41 PM): *She shakes her head and gives him a hug* I'm not going anywhere, we'll be here, safe in the church
guardiani_italian (9:47:21 PM): but i have to fight too..with my men...though my broken finger may slow me down
mystery_at_heart44 (9:48:14 PM): *She shrugs, backing up a little from the hug, quoting him from before* It's alright, you've done this too many times to count
guardiani_italian (9:48:56 PM): yes, true...can you splint my finger real quick?
mystery_at_heart44 (9:49:57 PM): *smiles and looks to her dress, holding the sleeve and ripping it so there was a long strip of cloth before she quickly snapped it back into place and wrapped it up tightly* This is the best I can do for now...
guardiani_italian (9:51:09 PM): thank you..it hurts less already *blushes* *the sound of a lot of horses marching comes near*
mystery_at_heart44 (9:52:16 PM): *she giggles, giving him a kiss on the cheek, knowing that might give him the confidence to fight with all he has* You'll do fine, my friend...I must go now *she then turns towards the church to head inside*
guardiani_italian (9:53:36 PM): *watches as you go inside, then walks to the front of the battlements with all my men. then nod* you all remember what i taught you? good
mystery_at_heart44 (9:54:33 PM): *She hides away with all the other women and children she had found, going from family to family trying to keep them calm*
guardiani_italian (9:55:56 PM): *the horses charge us. everyone shoots arrows and some riders fall. they soon get near the battlements* draw swords!! fight for your life!
mystery_at_heart44 (9:57:07 PM): *all the women stand in the hiding place of the church, listening to the sounds of the outside world, each standing in fear, feeling the world around them freeze, praying each cry in pain isn't their husband*
guardiani_italian (9:59:15 PM): *i fight with a great ferocity. my men fall around me but i have to time to notice. i am surrounded on all sides* i will not die!! i've gotta stay alive so i can marry my friend!! *at any other time i woulda been deeply embarassed, but i had no time to think since i was fighting for my life*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:01:03 PM): *the mothers try to calm their children as she tries to calm the mothers, hoping and praying this battle wouldn't last long*
guardiani_italian (10:02:28 PM): *the fight lasts for about an hour. our little group miracuously defeats the army. i have scratches all over and a broken left arm. i walk back wearily to the church*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:03:43 PM): *after they all get word, the women and children quickly make their way up to land where they could breathe fresh oxygen. Diana is the last to come out, making sure everyone is safe and sound and out of the hiding place*
guardiani_italian (10:04:41 PM): *i meet you after everyone has come out. i'm practically collapsing from exaustion*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:07:26 PM): *hurries over to him and kneels down beside him* Are you alright? *she didn't know what to say but she needed to say something to see if he was still coincious or not*
guardiani_italian (10:08:15 PM): *slumps down on the ground* we won my friend..we won..*becomes unconcious*
mystery_at_heart44 (10:09:49 PM): *she watches helplessly and then goes to find nurses, not knowing what more to do*
