School For Half Humans (REBOOT, IC)

[New Cinoth]

Seth chuckled, "But you still introduced us. So for that I'm in your debt." He turned bright red, "I wouldn't say "bagged." It was more like an awkward and ill advised kiss turned into a relationship." Seth shrugged, "It certainly was an interesting to get a girlfriend." He shifted in his seat. "She's a wonderful girl and I'm really glad she's my girlfriend, especially since she's very accepting. Most girls would have a fit if they knew what I did, but not Mira. She's perfect." Seth smiled lovingly at Mira, "I'm so glad I found her before anyone else."

[Nuridia]

Asteria laughed when John lifted her, Aurelia beamed and clapped happily. She then turned to Seth and Mira. "Yeah, you scooped her up and I'm glad you did." "You guys seem perfect for each other and I'm sure you'll love her Seth." Yulan spoke up. "Because if you don't, you're going to have to answer to me." she said cheerily while squeezing her fist and making a large stone vase on the far side of the room shatter into fine powder with a bang, to show she was very serious about protecting her sister, although she liked Seth. Mira blanched when her sister did that. Aurelia spoke up. "O..kay?" "Yulan seems serious." "Anyway I wonder how Mom and Dad are, they've been gone for nearly half the party." "They're probably having their little contest again, Dad almost always wins though from what I hear but Mom has supposedly won a few times too." she said to Seth and Mira.

[New Cinoth]

"Mira is quite unbelievable." Seth watched as Yulan broke the vase, "I get the message. And I have no intention of harming your sister or disappointing her in any way." He found Yulan funny, she was so young and definitely brave. He was somewhat glad that his friends were not around at that moment. Even though he enjoyed their company it probably wouldn't be good to have those two threatening Yulan. "I promise that if I hurt Mira you send me straight to Hell." Seth grinned at Mira, "Hmmm.... I wonder if you father picked that up from mine..... They did fight after all and my father did end up respecting him... Soooo.... he could have told him about the game."

[Tomia]

John smiled and chuckled when Asteria laughed. John saw Aurelia's reaction as he danced with her daughter and smiled and winked at her. He was glad he could make both of them happy, and he was really happy at how well he was getting along with Asteria. He really liked her and thought she was a great kid. He was still incredibly nervous about the idea of becoming a father but he didn't worry about it. That would come way down the line if it ever came.
As Eric danced with Salma he saw John dancing with Asteria and smiled "Well it looks like John and Asteria are getting along really well. I've never seen him act like this. He's always been so tough and strong. He must really care about those two." He said to his girlfriend.

[Nuridia]

Salma nodded to Eric. "Yeah I know, it's beautiful how much they're good for each other." Aurelia raised an eyebrow. "There's a game?" "I was talking about a contest to see who could last the longest and go the most rounds." "Dad wins a lot, angelic stamina comes in handy." "Anyway, there's a game?" "Can you tell me about it, I'm curious now." Yulan nodded at Seth, happy he got her message. Mira still held Seth's hand while taking the ornate pins out with the other, letting her very long perfumed hair fall in soft waves to where her thighs and butt met like a bolt of shiny black silk that somebody dropped. Falan was chatting with the same silvery girl, she actually seemed very interested and this one seemed like she liked him. She wore a shimmery fine dress and had a bluish tint to her pale skin. Salma smirked their way. "Seems like Oona is into wolves." "Half-mermaid, the younger Princess of the Indian Ocean."

[New Cinoth]

Seth nodded, "Yes there's a game it can be played with anywhere from two people to two thousand. Although the real number is infinite." He sighed, "Let's just say bored denizens of Hell have lots of free time and most like that option. It's basically to the last person standing in one giant free for all." Seth shook his head, "Like I said lots of bad souls come to Hell and they have free time..." A shimmer caught his eye and he saw Mira's hair cascade. "Wow..... That is absolutely stunning!" He looked at her hair, Your hair is absolutely beautiful."

[Tomia]

Eric nodded and smiled "Ya I know I'm happy for them. John's spent most of his life looking out for me. He was the popular kid in high school, star quarterback, things like that. But he always protected me from the kids who picked on me. He deserves to be happy."
Eric saw an attractive girl talking to Falan. Eric didn't like Falan much and wasn't really comfortable being around other werewolves but he didn't really care at the moment. He was enjoying being with Salma too much. He smirked at her comment about her friend Oona liking werewolves. He kissed her and said "Well that makes both of you right?"

[Inquilabstan]

Standing nearby, Abdul heard Salma's comment and chuckled. "Dogs and fish get along well from what I have seen." he muttered. Abdul had spent most of the party talking to various individuals about him, trying to establish an acquaintanceship with the powerful individuals about him, a move which would be important for Seth's reign, particularly in redefining Hell for the world. At this point, he had approached the twins, lifting his Beret in greeting. "Well, this certainly is a lovely event is it not? I pray that you two are having a good time."

[Nuridia]

Salma laughed and kissed Eric again. "Right." she said. Mira blushed and gave Seth a dazzling grin. "Well thank you, I try to take good care of it." Llyr and Siobhan were holding hands and sitting close to each other chatting before noticing Abdul. "Well hello there." "Yeah, we're doing good." Llyr said. Siobhan spoke up. "Nice to meet you, a lot of people tend to avoid us." "You're not from around here are you?" After not being heard from for a very long while, Aurelia's parents woke up, after a short nap and making out again for a few minutes. "Maybe we should get up now." Marie suggested. "Sounds good, let's go check on Aurelia." Raphael smiled at his wife. "I love you, my pretty Mimi." "I love you too, my darling angel." "I love you so much it's crazy." The two chatted with each other during their time and after getting up, they cleaned up the room and took a shower before changing into clean dress clothes. Their hair was still a little messy but it didn't matter to them. "Mimi, I heard there was going to be an after party." "Doesn't it start in like twenty minutes?" "Wow, we were gone that long? The party's nearly over." "It was a good long while." The couple smiled and kissed for a long time before pulling away and heading downstairs to join the others.

[Tomia]

Eric kissed Salma back and grinned at her answer "That's good, because I'm crazy about fire jinn princess'." He said holding her closer as they danced.
After dancing with Asteria for awhile John stopped, smiling at Asteria and saying "I really enjoyed dancing with you Asteria. But we should probably get back to your mother." He walked with Asteria back to where they'll were sitting and sat next to Aurelia taking her hand. He saw Aurelia's parents walking back toward them. They had been gone a long time and John noticed they were wearing different clothes. John smiled knowingly and waved to them.

[Tarnen]

While everyone else was mingling with one another Alex just found a nice quiet corner to sit and as he just moved his food around his plate. He took a couple of bites and just put the plate down. The party would have been alot better if Yuta was there with him, but neither have been talking with each other for some time now. Alex grabbed the necklace out of his pocket again, instead of putting it back he wore it around his neck instead. It was going to be for Yu, but he didn't know if they would be talking again, it would be something to remind him.

[Nuridia]

Raphael and Marie smiled and waved to John and Aurelia before walking downstairs together. "Say it." Raphael teased. Marie chuckled. "No Raph." "Come on love, admit it." "No." "Mimi." "Fine!" she said lowly. "You won...again." "Yes!" "Told you I'd win." "But it was good for both of us wasn't it?" "Yeah, it was." "It really was." "Being with you is one of the most beautiful things in the world." Raphael wrapped an arm around her waist. "It's like the first time every time, knowing that I'm yours and you're mine." They both had their wedding rings which they never took off. The bands were silver set with an emerald in the center and carved in Hebrew words around the outside and French words in the inside. Marie adjusted the very wide choker ribbon around her neck and bright blue scarf bunched and tied securely around it. "Why the choker and scarf?" her husband asked. "You know why, it's your fault." she playfully pushed him gently. "Come, let's join the others." They made their way to John and Aurelia's table.

[Inquilabstan]

"Pleasure to meet you too. No, no I'm not. You could say that up until recently, I was underground, and before that, I was in the service of my nation, so no, I am not from about here, though I dare say that I may well be about here more often nowadays, in the service of my master."

[Tomia]

John saw Marie and Raphael and wave back as they walked downstairs toward him and Aurelia. When they sat down he greeted them "Hey, it's good to see you guys again. You were gone a long time." He said smiling. He turned and saw Seth and Mira holding hands and wondered if they had started dating. If they did he was glad, he liked Seth and the seemed like a good couple.

[New Cinoth]

"Your hair is absolutely beautiful! It's more beautiful than the most lovely obsidian. Everything that you care for ends up beautiful. " Seth nodded to the returning couple, Well they certainly seem happy. I guess the game was fun. Seth turned back to Mira, "So... Mira.... I was wondering, what do you consider beautiful? Anything in particular strike your fancy? Remember I'm an Archdemon of pleasure so anything goes really." Seth grinned at her, "It might take a while but eventually I can be perfect to suite your tastes."

[Nuridia]

Raphael grinned at John. "Sorry about that, she was just so beautiful I couldn't pull away." "Aww, Raphy." Marie kissed her husband's cheek and he blushed and smiled. Mira smiled at Seth. "Well, what I consider beautiful is a good heart." "A good and kind heart is more beautiful than a pretty face and ugly disposition." "And I also believe that true love is beautiful, it makes a connection between two hearts and souls and gives meaning to the lovemaking." "I stayed a virgin all this time because if you sleep with somebody you don't love, the sex is just sex and it means absolutely nothing." "It's so much better when you give yourself to the one you love, it's much better and the hearts and spirits meet as well as the bodies." "I'm pretty sure our angelic Lord and his Lady agree with me on this one." Raphael and Marie turned bright red and sat still before giving small smiles to Mira and looking away.

[New Cinoth]

Seth nodded slowly, "I think I understand. It's not the action, but the person behind the action that you must want." An old memory came to Seth's mind. It was his father telling him about love "Seth, listen carefully. These foolish thoughts of love need to go. They'll only way you down." He remembered his father's annoyance and anger. "When you meet someone and you don't want their soul, not because it's too hard , not because you can't get it, but because you don't want to ruin them. That is real love." Seth's eyes widened suddenly as everything clicked together, "I understand now! It makes perfect sense!"

[Tomia]

John nodded and smirked to Raphael. He turned back to Aurelia and smiled "Well. Atersia'a having a good time. She's a great kid, I'm glad she seems to like me." John had been nervous about how she would react and was afraid she wouldn't like him anymore. It was a big weight off his mind that she accepted him.

[Nuridia]

Mira asked. "What makes sense Seth?" Asteria smiled and sat in between Aurelia and John, the little girl reaching up a chubby hand to gently tug on Aurelia's long raven locks. Aurelia was taken aback a little bit. "Asteria, be careful honey." "Mama just got her hair done." Asteria rolled her eyes. "Oh Mama, you need to build your neck strength, I didn't even pull all that hard." "Gramma lets me frickin' swing in her hair." she laughed. Marie's hair, in addition to naturally being a very bright fiery shade of red was very long when left curly like it was, a few inches longer than Mira's, and when it was straightened it reached past her knees.

[New Cinoth]

Seth grinned at her, "Just something my father told me a long time ago. He doesn't think demon should try to find love and he made things feel pretty bleak." He sighed, "Although now his "advice" seems to be working against him at the moment. Seth watched Mira for a long moment, "So..... Mira." I grin excitedly, "I might have another surprise for you... If you are willing."

[Tomia]

John smiled when Asteria sat between them and laughed at her comment. She was very smart for her age and was certainly adventurous. He chuckled at her joke and patted her head gently. "That must be quite the site to see."

[Nuridia]

"It's fun, but I can't do it a lot." "I'm pretty light, but I only get to do it like once in a long while." Asteria said. Mira turned to Seth. "What surprise?" "It sounds exciting." Mira smiled and Yulan hid her smirk by drinking a goblet of fruit punch. A young handsome man with tan skin and long black hair walked into the room holding a fairly large envelope with a wax seal. "Your majesty, a letter from you from the Council." "They said it was urgent." Mira walked toward the man and took the letter. "Thank you Xingke." She put two silver coins into his hand and gave him a polite friendly smile. He smiled and looked longingly into her eyes and Mira was the first to break the stare. She flinched uncomfortably, obviously a little creeped by the look. "You may go." The young man bowed and left the room, still casting glances at Mira. Yulan sighed. "Xingke's always had a thing for Mira." "He's a childhood friend, like a brother to us. He's always been in love with her but Mira never felt the same for him."

[Tomia]

John nodded and smiled "I bet it is. I've swing from vines once as a chimpanzee. It was pretty fun until one of them broke and I feel to the ground and hit my head." He chuckled "Eric didn't let me forget about that one for a while."
As Eric danced with Salma he thought about how lucky he was to have her. He wasn't sure what she saw in him, especially after all the mistakes he had made. "So do you think your friends liked me?" He asked her, "They seemed like pretty good people."

[Nuridia]

"Pleasure to meet you too. No, no I'm not. You could say that up until recently, I was underground, and before that, I was in the service of my nation, so no, I am not from about here, though I dare say that I may well be about here more often nowadays, in the service of my master."

"Master?" Llyr asked. "You don't look like the kind of guys who has a master." "He must be a pretty cool guy or something." Siobhan looked at her brother, and then at Abdul and then back again.

[New Cinoth]

Seth grinned, "I'll tell you later." Seth watched as the attractive messenger approached, I thought this was Mira's vacation time. Can't the council lay off for just a while? Seth watched as the young man handed her the letter and took his payment. He seems like a nice- Wait.... What's with that weird look? He watched the young man go, I have a feeling he won't be too pleased with me. Seth nodded slowly, "I see. SO the messenger loves her but she doesn't love him back. I feel sorta bad for him. Do you think there might be problem with him in the future?"
