Sinbrilee | Dreaming | Death



Art by Rica.


The city is lit by a warm orange glow, there are thousands of lanterns lit and burning brightly to ward off the gathering dark. It was once a grand, thriving place, and it's obvious by the quality of the Greco-Roman architecture, the high sweeping columns of white marble, the beautifully paved roads. There are aqueducts throughout the city that look as if they could be put to use today. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the city's spent the last few hundred years underwater, it looks quite liveable. This city is entirely open to exploration, so feel free to send your character out to their heart's content. Remember, certain doorways will lead your characters into either Death or the Dreaming and these markings won't always be visible to them, so they should take care and be vigilant at all times!

Note: A separate post will be made for the events of the Bacchanal later in the month.

Why do I suspect you really will? [He's asking that fondly, honestly, and letting a finger trail through Combeferre's hair a bit. ]

But just for now, we're comfortable enough I should think, wouldn't you?

[personal profile] philosophe 2013-09-02 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Because they are fascinating. [He smiles and nuzzles a little closer, to do the same to Enjolras' hair.]

Most certainly. Your hair is lovely like this, did you know?
solo_patria: (Default)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-09-02 07:28 pm (UTC)(link)

You find so many things fascinating, and they usually have some practical purpose later. Well. [And he's grinning broadly here.] I do not think that anyone will see the practicalities of your moths but...most other things.

Mm? Perhaps I should leave it down more often then.

philosophe: (lara croft?)

[personal profile] philosophe 2013-09-03 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
[A little bit of a huff, but it's clear he's only teasing.] They are lovely creatures, it is not my fault that no-one else can see it.

You may do as you like, it is your hair, after all.

[And Enjolras is making a mock noise of disgust and rolling his eyes exaggeratedly.]

If you say so, my dear. I personally cannot imagine the countless hours spent on such things, but then, I have no doubt you would find wisdom in near anything.

And who says that I would not like it if it gets me such attentions?

philosophe: (when tomorrow comes)

[personal profile] philosophe 2013-09-03 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
One day, I shall endear you to moths, I swear it. [Now, apparently, is the time to give Enjolras a kiss and a bit of a playfully admonishing look.]

I might braid it for you, I suppose, I became rather good at them when my sisters were younger.
solo_patria: (sc 3: pretty in the sunset)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-09-03 08:29 am (UTC)(link)
Shall you? That may take quite a bit of convincing on your part, truly. [Kisses like that though? He might be persuaded to at least give the moths lip service after a few of those.]

Oh really? I may need to take you up on that then. This has been a mess for weeks.
philosophe: (enjolras: bros 4 lyfe)

[personal profile] philosophe 2013-09-03 08:48 am (UTC)(link)
I am certain I can come up with something to convince you.

You would rather do better to ask Courfeyrac, but I will try my best.
solo_patria: (canony: at the barricade)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-09-03 09:11 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you are welcome to try of course.

[He's rather imagining a particularly pleasant scene involving Combeferre, a book of some sort about moths, himself, and something to curl up pleasantly while listening to Combferre share things that he finds interesting. It was always pleasant enough before, and now with this added component of their relationship, perhaps they can throw a few kisses into it as well. It seems like a logical thing to attempt after all.]

If I wished for Courfeyrac, then I would ask for Courfeyrac. I think that I would rather you.
philosophe: (coooooat)

[personal profile] philosophe 2013-09-07 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, am I? Very well.

[He's rather thinking along the same lines himself, but he's going to take a moment to give Enjolras another rather thorough kiss.] I do not wish to -- make you do anything you do not have any desire to. You know that, do you not?
solo_patria: (Default)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-09-07 03:45 am (UTC)(link)

Quite. I will even try to pay attention while you do that. I cannot guarantee my mind will not wander on to other topics but I'll make the effort. For you.

[A kiss that he is enjoying very much thank you. As for the rest, Enjolras has the suspicion that has very little to do with moths.]

I do. You never did at home, or before things shifted. Why should I expect that you would not be as you always have been, mm? I...may not be ready as quickly as some would wish but when it is anyone, it will be you. It must be, I think.

philosophe: (intent)

[personal profile] philosophe 2013-09-10 08:00 am (UTC)(link)
I am most grateful.

[He would certainly be correct. Ah, the trick they have of reading each others' minds.]

I am perfectly content to wait, so you know. [There's a small nuzzle.] Do not hurry on my account.
solo_patria: (canony: do you hear)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-09-10 08:35 am (UTC)(link)
[That sort of connection does seem especially useful when it comes to things like this, doesn't it? Much easier, in a lot of regards than if this were a relative stranger. Well, it's not like Enjolras would approach it with a stranger but...]

I suppose that we will know when. [It's not as though he holds any major romantic opinions or illusions about ...well whatever they put into those horrible novels everyone else was snickering at through school or anything like that, but there are some things that Enjolras suspects he will be certain of. Perhaps it does not boil down to one right moment but...]

I think...[And that's a nuzzle that he is returning.] I am finally beginning to know who I am, apart from the republic. Who I am with you, like this. When I have found that footing, then. [And the idea itself is rather nice really.]
philosophe: (Default)

[personal profile] philosophe 2013-09-12 11:47 pm (UTC)(link)
That is usually the way of things, yes. [He just gives Enjolras a small smile.]

Well. I am willing to help you with that, should you wish.
solo_patria: (sc 5: my mistress is patria)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-09-12 11:54 pm (UTC)(link)
And I am...quite certain I will appreciate that. [This after all, seems like quite the start to that sort of thing, or easing into it at least.]

[personal profile] philosophe 2013-09-15 07:10 pm (UTC)(link)
I should certainly hope so.
solo_patria: (canony: at the barricade)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-09-15 07:45 pm (UTC)(link)
It would be something of a problem, otherwise. [He smirks.]
philosophe: (in thought)

[personal profile] philosophe 2013-09-18 07:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Indeed it would. [He just raises an eyebrow -- and, well, that smirk is just asking for a thorough kiss.]
solo_patria: (Default)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-09-18 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[Isn't it just though? How does he know that was not the PLAN at any rate? Enjolras is quite eagerly, and happily, returning that kiss.]

Perhaps we should think of arranging some sort of tutoring then?

[He asks the question mildly enough, considering he's naked and perched in Combeferre's lap at the moment, and you know, in between kisses. And that might take away from the awkwardness of the fact that he's essentially asking to schedule sexy lessons here. Well, awkward for other people.

Enjolras sees no problem in arranging for this. And come to that, it would probably help to have a rough estimate of a date for when certain romantic...events...may occur. ]

philosophe: (sneaky ferre!)

[personal profile] philosophe 2013-09-21 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[There's a vaguely amused snort, but he pulls back to press some thoughtful kisses to Enjolras' shoulders, considering.]

You may have a point. There are certainly those here with more experience at this sort of thing than I. --Not Courfeyrac, if we wish our sanity to remain intact, I think.

[There's a pause.] That is to say, I am not -- I mean, I have done this before, it simply has not...been with anyone other than a young lady in recent years. [And that's not even all too recent, back at home he was generally too busy for this sort of thing.]
solo_patria: (Default)

[personal profile] solo_patria 2013-09-21 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Courfeyrac? No never.

[Enjolras's face at that moment is more just horror struck than anything else. Really, he could not be blamed for that though.]

No, no definitely not. I hardly think he would WISH to discuss such details with ourselves, in relation to ourselves as it is. As strange as it may seem, people we do not know well may actually suit better.

[And then the pause and, really? Enjolras blinks a little at that, but perhaps not for the reasons people may suspect.]

You managed to find any time for anything at all?

[Clearly he is teasing here.]

I AM impressed you managed then. Tell me, did you sleep at all?
