[16:57] <GameMaster> It works!
[16:57] <LeonaHelissandre> yay
[16:57] <GameMaster> Clearly only because it is named after a battering ram, but still.
[16:57] <LeonaHelissandre> lol
[16:58] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d3
[16:58] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 2
[16:58] <GameMaster> There you go.
[16:58] <LeonaHelissandre> i could swear i turned off read-only for this entire drive (waited a while for it, too), so i don't know what's going on
[16:58] <LeonaHelissandre> guess i'll fiddle with it later
[16:58] <LeonaHelissandre> ,roll 6d20 full
[16:58] <BatteringRam> LeonaHelissandre: 45[10,2,9,12,11,1]
[16:58] <LeonaHelissandre> lol
[16:59] <GameMaster> She seems to lift her head slightly in anticipation, as you reach out.
[17:06] <LeonaHelissandre> I slowly lean in closer, my eyes never wavering from 'Cenne's. Inches away from meeting her lips, I pause.
[17:06] <LeonaHelissandre> ((it is really weird to try and get back into a scene like this after a cut, btw <.<))
[17:07] <GameMaster> ((You totally foreshadowed that yourself at the cutting point))
[17:07] <LeonaHelissandre> ((i know, but i thought it bore repeating >.>))
[17:07] <LeonaHelissandre> ((the sentiment, that is))
[17:08] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d6 autopass
[17:08] <BatteringRam> GameMaster, autopass: 6
[17:08] <GameMaster> Huh.
[17:09] <GameMaster> +5+4+2+3+3+4
[17:09] <GameMaster> Why, only 27.
[17:10] <LeonaHelissandre> rofl
[17:11] <GameMaster> ,roll 6d20 full
[17:11] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 86[3,20,19,18,13,13]
[17:12] <GameMaster> She tries to close the distance for a kiss, seemingly heedless of her surroundings.
[17:13] <LeonaHelissandre> hmm
[17:15] <LeonaHelissandre> was thinking over whether to willpower roll-- it's hardly much of an incentive if she rewards 'Cenne beforehand, after all :V
[17:15] <LeonaHelissandre> but not sure whether Leona would be in the mood to tease like that
[17:16] <LeonaHelissandre> eh, decide against it
[17:18] <GameMaster> She made her willpower roll, alas, given that 27, it was just not to lunge.
[17:18] <LeonaHelissandre> lol
[17:19] <LeonaHelissandre> hm
[17:19] <LeonaHelissandre> How would Polycenne react to being teased here, in this mood?
[17:20] <GameMaster> You think she'd be caught off-guard, right now.
[17:20] <LeonaHelissandre> <.<
[17:20] <LeonaHelissandre> dammit wishy-washy
[17:21] <LeonaHelissandre> eh, might fail the willpower roll anyway
[17:21] <LeonaHelissandre> ,roll 6d20 full
[17:21] <BatteringRam> LeonaHelissandre: 56[9,10,4,5,14,14]
[17:21] <GameMaster> You made it.
[17:25] <GameMaster> And I suppose you can tell from her gaze the result of the roll: she seems to be acting very passionately there.
[17:27] <LeonaHelissandre> I remain still for a brief moment, my eyes intense-- then, as she's halfway towards me, I begin drawing back.
[17:29] <GameMaster> Her eyes widen for a moment, then she blinks thirce in a row, at loss (...)
[17:30] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d6+5+4+3-4-2-2-4-5
[17:30] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 0:5+5+4+3-4-2-2-4-5
[17:30] <LeonaHelissandre> lol
[17:31] <GameMaster> -3-3-3, actually.
[17:31] <LeonaHelissandre> hot damn
[17:32] <GameMaster> ,roll 6d20 full
[17:32] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 68[18,17,8,3,7,15]
[17:33] <LeonaHelissandre> -3-3-3 where tho
[17:33] <GameMaster> That roll.
[17:33] <GameMaster> Hence -9.
[17:33] <LeonaHelissandre> oh
[17:34] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d6+3+4+2-2-3-3-4
[17:34] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: -2:1+3+4+2-2-3-3-4
[17:34] <LeonaHelissandre> Also, for the record-- despite Leona having drawn back, her expression is pretty much entirely open desire, and would've remained so in the next reply. <.<
[17:34] <LeonaHelissandre> lol
[17:34] <GameMaster> That is actually good, mind.
[17:34] <GameMaster> For that one.
[17:34] <GameMaster> ,roll 6d20 full
[17:34] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 76[19,14,3,18,15,7]
[17:35] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d6 autopass
[17:35] <BatteringRam> GameMaster, autopass: 1
[17:36] <GameMaster> Hmm, actually, hold that roll.
[17:36] <GameMaster> First:
[17:36] <GameMaster> ,roll 6d20 full Deceit
[17:36] <BatteringRam> GameMaster, Deceit: 60[14,10,20,13,2,1]
[17:36] <GameMaster> Resist?
[17:36] <LeonaHelissandre> No.
[17:37] <GameMaster> Deceit: why?
[17:43] <LeonaHelissandre> Leona realized when she paused that it's hardly an incentive if she rewards Polycenne beforehand, and that would likely be her excuse, but her real reason is that she isn't sure sex is a good idea right now, given that Polycenne mentioned she didn't want it yesterday given her mood. <.<
[17:45] <LeonaHelissandre> She might also be trying something new in the process with the denial bit, too, but again, more of a side thing rather than the real reason.
[17:46] <GameMaster> >.>
[17:46] <GameMaster> Nevermind the last 1d6.
[17:46] <LeonaHelissandre> For the record:that was a thing I was a bit concerned about beforehand too :P
[17:47] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d6+3+3-4-3-2
[17:47] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 0:3+3+3-4-3-2
[17:48] <LeonaHelissandre> *due to her mood
[17:49] <LeonaHelissandre> said given twice, great shame
[17:49] <GameMaster> After a couple seconds spent confused, Polycenne slumps back in her seat, looking suddenly contrite.
[17:51] <LeonaHelissandre> <.<
[17:51] <LeonaHelissandre> My expression immediately becomes gently concerned. "'Cenne?"
[17:52] <LeonaHelissandre> *full of gentle concern
[17:53] <GameMaster> ,roll 6d20 full
[17:53] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 66[19,7,3,8,20,9]
[17:53] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d6+5-2+4+3+2-4-3-2
[17:53] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 8:5+5-2+4+3+2-4-3-2
[17:57] <GameMaster> She shakes her head and forces a smile "Sorry, I will be fine, just (...) give it a couple minutes".
[17:59] <LeonaHelissandre> >.>
[17:59] <LeonaHelissandre> should've tried deceit for that contrite expression first
[18:00] <LeonaHelissandre> "Are you sure?" I ask softly, reaching out to cup her cheek.
[18:01] <GameMaster> ,roll 6d20 full
[18:01] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 76[7,19,15,10,13,12]
[18:02] <GameMaster> She looks at you "Maybe not a couple minutes, but I will be fine, eventually" reassuringly.
[18:05] <LeonaHelissandre> "... Alright." I accept, a little reluctantly. "Do you... want to cuddle on the couch? Or something?"
[18:05] <LeonaHelissandre> Also, WIS to figure out why she might feel contrite, maybe? <.<
[18:05] <GameMaster> You may roll.
[18:06] <GameMaster> Somewhat hard.
[18:06] <LeonaHelissandre> ,roll 6d20 full
[18:06] <BatteringRam> LeonaHelissandre: 60[16,18,1,1,17,7]
[18:06] <LeonaHelissandre> <.<
[18:06] <LeonaHelissandre> knew it
[18:06] <GameMaster> Nothing comes to mind immediately.
[18:07] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d6+5-2
[18:07] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 6:3+5-2
[18:07] <LeonaHelissandre> Think about it more later, maybe, For now, I'll just focus on Polycenne.
[18:07] <GameMaster> "That... would be nice. Thanks, Lea" softly.
[18:10] <LeonaHelissandre> I smile a little and offer her a hand.
[18:11] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d6+42
[18:11] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 48:6+42
[18:11] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d6+4-2
[18:11] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 7:5+4-2
[18:11] <GameMaster> ,roll 6d20 full
[18:11] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 53[11,9,1,11,10,11]
[18:11] <GameMaster> Does Leona seem confused?
[18:14] <LeonaHelissandre> Somewhat, yes.
[18:17] <GameMaster> She takes your hand, not letting go. Where do you lead her?
[18:20] <LeonaHelissandre> Towards the couch, as promised. I sit down first, but, instead of waiting for her to sit down, I gently tug her into me and begin coaxing her into a position lying on top of me.
[18:22] <GameMaster> She lets you, lying on top of... your lap?
[18:23] <LeonaHelissandre> Shifting to the side so that we're both lying down, that is.
[18:23] <LeonaHelissandre> Somehow that detail got lost in editing <.<
[18:24] <GameMaster> Back to you, or front to you?
[18:24] <LeonaHelissandre> Front.
[18:25] <GameMaster> You feel her move to embrace you.
[18:30] <LeonaHelissandre> I wrap one arm around her back, and my other hand starts gently stroking her hair. After a few moments, if Polycenne remains quiet, I begin humming softly.
[18:33] <GameMaster> It is a few minutes before she speaks, leaning her head against you.
[18:34] <GameMaster> "(...) Sorry about earlier, I shouldn't have".
[18:35] <LeonaHelissandre> WIS roll to figure out why she would be sorry about that, or does the earlier contrite roll still apply? <.<
[18:37] <GameMaster> Again.
[18:37] <GameMaster> Average, this time.
[18:38] <LeonaHelissandre> ,roll 6d20 full
[18:38] <BatteringRam> LeonaHelissandre: 106[19,12,19,18,19,19]
[18:38] <LeonaHelissandre> ... lol
[18:38] <LeonaHelissandre> really?
[18:38] <GameMaster> lol
[18:38] <LeonaHelissandre> is this really how you're gonna do me dicebot
[18:38] <LeonaHelissandre> really
[18:39] <GameMaster> You think she is blaming herself for having put aside her earlier bad mood over the situation.
[18:40] <LeonaHelissandre> ... so she's feeling guilty for having felt happy? <><
[18:40] <LeonaHelissandre> *<.<
[18:41] <GameMaster> Feeling guilty for having dropped the grieving, basically.
[18:41] <GameMaster> ((Remember that roll where I said it being negative was good?))
[18:41] <LeonaHelissandre> >.>
[18:41] <GameMaster> ((Leona defaulted it to the positive outcome through her answer to the Deceit roll))
[18:41] <LeonaHelissandre> lol
[18:41] <GameMaster> ((Hence the 1d6 afterwards being cancelled))
[18:41] <LeonaHelissandre> oops
[18:47] <LeonaHelissandre> I pause briefly. Then, softly, "Why should you be sorry about that?"
[18:48] <GameMaster> "It... feels like I am being disingenuous".
[18:49] <LeonaHelissandre> Disingenuous?
[18:50] <LeonaHelissandre> As in, insincere?
[18:51] <GameMaster> Yes.
[18:52] <LeonaHelissandre> Insincere about her grief, that is?
[18:53] <GameMaster> Indeed.
[19:01] <LeonaHelissandre> "Being distracted for a little while doesn't make the grief any less sincere." I say softly. "It is unfair to yourself to apologize for your feelings, let alone for feeling happy."
[19:07] <GameMaster> You feel her try and press closer to you, to no avail.
[19:07] <LeonaHelissandre> Is it physically possible for us to be closer together? <.<
[19:12] <LeonaHelissandre> Well, fuck it, I'll try anyway. >.>
[19:12] <GameMaster> No.
[19:12] <GameMaster> lol
[19:12] <LeonaHelissandre> lol
[19:13] <LeonaHelissandre> I suppose I'll just tighten my embrace a little, then (taking care that it doesn't become uncomfortable, of course).
[19:17] <GameMaster> She stays like that for several minutes, though she does not fall asleep (...) what of Leona?
[19:19] <LeonaHelissandre> I continue to stroke Polycenne's hair, and also start softly humming again after a little while. Otherwise, I'm content to remain there as long as 'Cenne wants.
[19:26] <GameMaster> Eventually: "Do you want to go to the gym?" slowly.
[19:26] <LeonaHelissandre> Tone?
[19:29] <GameMaster> Soft/tentative.
[19:30] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm. Deceit?
[19:33] <GameMaster> Go ahead.
[19:34] <LeonaHelissandre> ,roll 6d20 full
[19:34] <BatteringRam> LeonaHelissandre: 64[18,9,12,4,18,3]
[19:36] <LeonaHelissandre> Why is Polycenne asking that?
[19:37] <GameMaster> She is having trouble thinkng of something else to suggest.
[19:40] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm. Can I tell if she actually wants the distraction, or if she's suggesting that for... i dunno, reasons of guilt somehow?
[19:41] <GameMaster> Yes.
[19:41] <GameMaster> The earlier.
[19:41] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm.
[19:42] <LeonaHelissandre> Do I know whether there are gyms in the other wings?
[19:42] <LeonaHelissandre> *one of the other wings
[19:43] <GameMaster> Yes/yes, though they'd probably be closed right now.
[19:43] <GameMaster> You suppose at least your mother's would be currently well-maintained, though.
[19:45] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm, don't think this is a good time to try something new... I suppose we could try a stroll through the gardens, with the understanding that if Gabrielle happens to be anywhere nearby, she'll probably hear us coming from a mile away and stay away because she would also feel the awkward that Polycenne feels
[19:45] <LeonaHelissandre> :V
[19:46] <LeonaHelissandre> I'd rather try something a bit more private, but nothing in particular really coming to mind right now
[19:47] <LeonaHelissandre> The library, maybe, but that might be an inadequate distraction
[19:48] <LeonaHelissandre> ...WIS roll? <.<
[19:48] <GameMaster> What exactly are you looking for, though?
[19:50] <LeonaHelissandre> I'm not entirely sure >.>
[19:52] <GameMaster> I do need at least something. >.>
[19:53] <LeonaHelissandre> What sort of things do I think might successfully distract Polycenne?
[19:55] <GameMaster> Anything she particularly likes. Otherwise something she has to put effort in.
[19:56] <LeonaHelissandre> ... hm, exercise might work fine then
[19:56] <LeonaHelissandre> Garden probably would too
[19:59] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm... does she like listening to Leona sing? Or dancing?
[20:01] <LeonaHelissandre> Don't think Leona would be in the mood for collaborating, for once, given that she did that with Sandro and Gabrielle just the day before
[20:01] <GameMaster> Yes/yes.
[20:01] <LeonaHelissandre> and the reminder might make her too melancholy
[20:02] <LeonaHelissandre> What's the place where we play instruments called? Is it a studio, or...?
[20:04] <GameMaster> Pretty positive it is just called a music room, in a house.
[20:04] <GameMaster> Studio has different implications.
[20:06] <LeonaHelissandre> "I wouldn't mind trying that." I say softly. "We could go visit the garden, though, if you prefer. Or we could visit the music room-- I'm... not in the mood for a duet right now, but we could play for each other. Or we could find some music to dance to, instead."
[20:07] <GameMaster> She draws back to kiss you, do you let her?
[20:08] <LeonaHelissandre> I'm a little reluctant to loosen my embrace, but yes.
[20:09] <GameMaster> She holds it for several seconds, before drawing back again "I think I'd like to try something new, this time" softly.
[20:10] <LeonaHelissandre> I nod and smile a little. "Alright."
[20:10] <LeonaHelissandre> I shift into a sitting position, pulling her along with me until she's sitting in my lap (sideways, probably?), before reluctantly loosening my grip so that she can get up on her own.
[20:12] <GameMaster> It takes a while for her to do so, opting to lean into the embrace for a few minutes first.
[20:12] <GameMaster> Anything to note there?
[20:12] <LeonaHelissandre> I tighten my embrace again at that, letting her remain as long as she wants.
[20:14] <GameMaster> She offers you a hand to help you up, once she finally leaves your embrace.
[20:17] <LeonaHelissandre> I take it, and keep holding her hand as I move to the door.
[20:18] <GameMaster> Where do you take her, after all?
[20:20] <LeonaHelissandre> am i correct in thinking that it'll be unlikely we'd run into Gabrielle in/on the way to the gym? <.<
[20:20] <LeonaHelissandre> tho, may as well check anyway-- do I think my mother would mind if I took Polycenne to her gym? <.<
[20:21] <LeonaHelissandre> Also, I should probably instruct our things to be taken to a different wing >.>
[20:21] <GameMaster> You think so/you don't know for sure, but you don't think so.
[20:21] <LeonaHelissandre> *instruct the servants to take our things to
[20:25] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm... just go to the usual gym, I suppose.
[20:25] <GameMaster> Just that?
[20:26] <LeonaHelissandre> Also the instruct thing. >.>
[20:27] <GameMaster> >.>
[20:28] <GameMaster> Actually have to check whether she'd have clothes for that.
[20:28] <GameMaster> lol
[20:28] <LeonaHelissandre> lol
[20:28] <LeonaHelissandre> you know
[20:28] <GameMaster> Though the answer is probably.
[20:28] <LeonaHelissandre> that actually occurred to me the other day
[20:28] <GameMaster> On account of no effort being saved.
[20:28] <GameMaster> ,roll 1d10
[20:28] <LeonaHelissandre> but i forgot to ask
[20:28] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 10
[20:28] <LeonaHelissandre> lol
[20:28] <LeonaHelissandre> ... lol
[20:29] <GameMaster> Did you change before you left the bedroom?
[20:29] <LeonaHelissandre> Do I normally change before then?
[20:29] <LeonaHelissandre> That is, would that have been my habit, I suppose
[20:29] <LeonaHelissandre> when going to the gym
[20:30] <GameMaster> Think so, yes, though you -could- get dressed there.
[20:30] <LeonaHelissandre> I ask because I can't think of a reason why Leona wouldn't stick to habit, there.
[20:31] <LeonaHelissandre> So I suppose she does change before leaving.
[20:31] <GameMaster> She does too, in that case.
[20:33] <LeonaHelissandre> I suppose we make our way to the gym, then.
[20:33] <GameMaster> Polycenne glances at you uncertain, once you make it to the doorway "Won't we...?".
[20:33] <LeonaHelissandre> And find out whether that 10 means the unlikely has occurred. <.<
[20:33] <LeonaHelissandre> Won't we...?
[20:33] <GameMaster> (risk running into someone, you think)
[20:35] <LeonaHelissandre> Double-double-checking: Gabrielle doesn't normally hang around the gyms much, right?
[20:36] <GameMaster> Nowadays, correct.
[20:36] <GameMaster> Though when she does, it is usually at this hour.
[20:37] <LeonaHelissandre> I glance at Polycenne. "Sandro should still be at work, and it'd be some bad luck if we ran into Gabrielle; she doesn't spend that much time in the gym nowadays."
[20:37] <LeonaHelissandre> I pause. "Though, when she does, it usually is around now."
[20:38] <LeonaHelissandre> Considering for a moment. "We could go to my mother's gym instead, I suppose. I don't think she'd mind."
[20:39] <GameMaster> "I think I'd prefer that" lightly.
[20:41] <LeonaHelissandre> "Then we'll do that." I nod in confirmation, and begin heading in that direction.
[20:43] <GameMaster> It takes you a while to get there, anything to comment inbetween?
[20:43] <GameMaster> Presumably, you also pass on the instructions along the way.
[20:45] <LeonaHelissandre> Well, since I probably let go of 'Cenne's hand to change, let it be specified that I took her hand again when we started leaving and held it the whole way, if Polycenne allowed it.
[20:46] <LeonaHelissandre> Otherwise, can't think of anything.
[20:48] <GameMaster> Do you ask a servant for a key?
[20:48] <LeonaHelissandre> I suppose?
[20:48] <GameMaster> Some further delay (...) but you make it there, your mother is obviously not using it at this hour.
[20:48] <LeonaHelissandre> I'd rather ask her directly, but she's almost certainly too busy
[20:50] <GameMaster> Once you are inside, Polycenne turns to you, still holding your hand "So... how are we doing this?".
[20:51] <LeonaHelissandre> How *are* we doing this? <.<
[20:53] <LeonaHelissandre> uh
[20:53] <LeonaHelissandre> i guess we would start with stretches...?
[20:53] <LeonaHelissandre> and there was the running laps bit
[20:54] <GameMaster> You don't have to be -that- specific.
[20:54] <GameMaster> More generally, will Leona be trying to instruct her, or what?
[20:55] <LeonaHelissandre> Leona's Instruction probably isn't that great, is it? >.>
[20:55] <LeonaHelissandre> Still probably better than nothing, tho
[20:57] <GameMaster> Not great, by your standards, but not bad either.
[20:59] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm, I was thinking more guidance than out-and-out instruction, but is there even a difference mechanically?
[21:01] <GameMaster> Well, yes, strictly speaking.
[21:01] <GameMaster> Applying the full mod/not training yourself.
[21:02] <GameMaster> Vs applying a partial mod/training yourself.
[21:03] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm... I suppose Leona will be focusing on helping Polycenne, here, especially since this is her first time trying this
[21:09] <GameMaster> Anything to specify there?
[21:09] <LeonaHelissandre> uh
[21:10] <LeonaHelissandre> Leona would probably unconsciously lean on Fiore's teaching style a bit there, but not to the point of being strict or anything
[21:11] <LeonaHelissandre> can't really think of anything else in particular

[21:15] <LeonaHelissandre> Enjoyable; right now, this is mostly about distracting 'Cenne

[21:22] <GameMaster> She tires somewhat easily, so it is a bit of an uphill battle for her. She nevertheless seems to enjoy herself, though you are confident it is more due your company than the activity.

[21:30] <GameMaster> (...) what expectations did you go into it with:
[21:30] <GameMaster> ?*
[21:31] <LeonaHelissandre> Average given her level of fitness, probably? It's certainly not fair to compare her to myself or Sandro <.<
[21:32] <LeonaHelissandre> Though I probably put more emphasis on effort than actual results, given said level of fitness

[21:35] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 67[15,5,10,9,16,12]
[21:35] <GameMaster> She seems to be putting effort in it, but her performance is about average, even then.
[21:38] <LeonaHelissandre> Some praise in addition to the encouragement, then.

[21:39] <GameMaster> How much do you push her/for how long?
[21:39] <LeonaHelissandre> <.<
[21:40] <LeonaHelissandre> I keep a careful eye on how tired she gets, and don't push her past the point where I myself would normally stop (in terms of exhaustion, that is, not time or results)-- maybe a bit earlier.
[21:41] <LeonaHelissandre> Even if that means stopping earlier than I meant to.

[21:43] <LeonaHelissandre> the dicebot really doesn't want Polycenne to become an athlete <.<
[21:43] <LeonaHelissandre> all the luck goes into her social skills, clearly
[21:45] <GameMaster> She stops, exhausted and drenched in sweat, roughly two hours in.
[21:48] <GameMaster> She looks to you "I think... this is... enough... for today?" panting.
[21:50] <LeonaHelissandre> I nod, stepping towards her and put an arm around her to let her lean on me (possibly also to help cool her down as well, since she's probably hotter than me right now). "You alright?"
[21:53] <GameMaster> She nods, still out of breath.
[21:54] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm, any nearby benches, or anything else to sit on?
[21:55] <GameMaster> And leans on you, her breathing evening out gradually.
[21:55] <GameMaster> Yes.
[21:55] <LeonaHelissandre> "Let's sit down for a bit, then we can go take a shower?" I suggest, already beginning to gently lead her toward one.
[21:57] <LeonaHelissandre> A seat, that is. <.<
[21:59] <GameMaster> She leans a little further towards you, so that her head is nearly resting against your chest, once you've both sat down.
[22:02] <LeonaHelissandre> I wrap an arm around her shoulders and wait patiently.
[22:04] <GameMaster> More evenly, after a couple minutes "I guess that wasn't all bad - though, really, I think I could say that of anything if we are together".
[22:09] <LeonaHelissandre> I chuckle softly. "I think I might know how you feel."
[22:11] <GameMaster> She moves back a little to go for a kiss.
[22:11] <LeonaHelissandre> I meet her on the way.
[22:15] <GameMaster> And just leans her head against your shoulder afterwards, her breathing normal again.
[22:16] <LeonaHelissandre> I remain, patiently letting her stay as long as she wants.

[22:18] <GameMaster> She gives you a peck on the cheek, before starting to stand up.
[22:18] <GameMaster> You notice she has remained slightly flushed, despite having calmed down by now.
[22:20] <LeonaHelissandre> I let my arm fall away as she stands, though I make up for it by taking her hand as I join her and begin leading her to the showers.
[22:22] <GameMaster> (...) do you head to your supposedly relocated bedroom?
[22:23] <LeonaHelissandre> Do I think they would've finished by now?
[22:24] <GameMaster> Yes, in fact.
[22:25] <LeonaHelissandre> Aw. I was just about to ask if Leona would know by now about the Helissandre spa room that's never used, but if that's the case, no reason for her to try thinking of alternatives. <.<
[22:25] <LeonaHelissandre> Ah well; to the relocated bedroom it is.
[22:25] <GameMaster> She would, though.
[22:26] <LeonaHelissandre> Good to know if it ever comes up again, then. >.>
[22:28] <GameMaster> She chats lightly with you on the way, the mild flush remains, though.
[22:33] <LeonaHelissandre> ... roll deceit?
[22:34] <LeonaHelissandre> I mean, I think I might have a clue, but may as well.
[22:34] <LeonaHelissandre> Either way, I chat lightly back, relaxed.
[22:34] <GameMaster> You can.

[22:35] <LeonaHelissandre> i had a double critfail earlier
[22:35] <LeonaHelissandre> and chronically low dice all around, except for that one weird no-crit 100+
[22:35] <LeonaHelissandre> what is up with this dicebot <.<
[22:36] <GameMaster> You think she has her "reward" in mind, after all. More so, she is probably a little more excitable than usual due to thinking of it as a new experience, somehow.
[22:36] <LeonaHelissandre> <.<
[22:37] <LeonaHelissandre> Well, *somebody's* getting ambushed in the showers.
[22:38] <LeonaHelissandre> In case it isn't obvious, previous reaction stands.
[22:39] <GameMaster> Any possible tells from Leona, over her 'insight' on the matter?
[22:39] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm.
[22:40] <LeonaHelissandre> She was totally into it before, despite hesitating and then withdrawing (...)
[22:42] <LeonaHelissandre> She'd probably be a bit more excited than usual as a result, so let's say she ends up with a matching flush.
[22:43] <LeonaHelissandre> or... anticipatory rather than excited, maybe?
[22:43] <LeonaHelissandre> anticipating?
[22:43] <GameMaster> Polycenne flashes you a small grin, out of the blue, once you are most of the way through.
[22:45] <LeonaHelissandre> Let me guess-- sultry/teasing grin? <.<
[22:45] <GameMaster> Yes. >.>
[22:46] <LeonaHelissandre> My flush deepens a little, but I give her a coy smile in answer.
[22:48] <GameMaster> You notice her grip on your hand tighten slightly.
[22:51] <LeonaHelissandre> How close are we, exactly? <.<
[22:51] <LeonaHelissandre> to the baths/shower, that is >.>
[22:51] <GameMaster> 1/5 of the way left.
[22:55] <LeonaHelissandre> I pick up the pace ever so slightly faster. As we draw close to the baths, I give 'Cenne another coy look, somewhat more heated than before.
[22:55] <LeonaHelissandre> *ever so slightly.
[22:56] <GameMaster> How far away from them is that?
[22:56] <LeonaHelissandre> Within sight of the door?

[23:02] <BatteringRam> GameMaster: 79[15,7,18,19,18,2]
[23:04] <GameMaster> She returns it, eyes filled with longing, and breaks her grip on your hand to embrace you over the waist, instead.
[23:06] <LeonaHelissandre> hm
[23:06] <LeonaHelissandre> think I'll roll Willpower myself <.<

[23:07] <GameMaster> Pass.
[23:09] <LeonaHelissandre> My gaze becomes a little more intense, but I manage to tear my eyes away to focus on the door and hold it together until we reach the baths.
[23:10] <GameMaster> Technically, you reach your bedroom's anteroom first.
[23:11] <LeonaHelissandre> Well, hold it together at least until we're through the door, then. <.<
[23:11] <GameMaster> She turns to lock the door the moment you are through.
[23:13] <LeonaHelissandre> I watch her as she locks the door, my gaze intensely longing. I wait a few seconds longer before making my move, however.
[23:14] <GameMaster> Even after she turns around?
[23:14] <GameMaster> Note she does so fairly swiftly.
[23:15] <LeonaHelissandre> Can I tell what she immediately intends to do? <.<
[23:16] <GameMaster> She immediately closes in for a kiss.
[23:19] <LeonaHelissandre> I press against her as I eagerly meet her for the kiss, unintentionally pushing her up against the door in the process.
[23:20] <LeonaHelissandre> *meet her lips,
[23:26] <GameMaster> Polycenne seems to take it in stride, moving a hand behind your back to get some leverage on your head, and groping you with the other.
[23:26] <GameMaster> I actually failed to come up with an euphemism for once :(
[23:27] <LeonaHelissandre> lol
[23:31] <LeonaHelissandre> This is... slightly more descriptive than I wanted, but I can't think of a way to un-descript it <.<
[23:31] <LeonaHelissandre> so i'm just going to post it >.>
[23:32] <LeonaHelissandre> I continue the kiss with unusual fervor for a little while, before pulling away slightly with a reluctant, yet somehow determined expression. I gently brush 'Cenne's hand aside and begin to gradually fall into a kneeling position, pulling away her clothes and kissing down her body as I do so.
[23:33] <GameMaster> Fade to black there.
[23:34] <LeonaHelissandre> yes >.>
[23:34] <GameMaster> I actually thought I had more of a window to fade to black, otherwise I'd probably have done that on my line.
[23:35] <GameMaster> That escalated quickly. >.>
[23:35] <GameMaster> Regardless, on the abstract plane:
[23:35] <LeonaHelissandre> Leona was determined that Polycenne go first, there <.<
[23:35] <LeonaHelissandre> and that's all i'm going to say about that >.>
[23:36] <GameMaster> She is very passionate through the affair, and it drags on, as far as she is concerned. Roughly in the same terms, of what of it, from Leona's end?
[23:37] <GameMaster> what of it*
[23:40] <LeonaHelissandre> Leona is also passionate-- much more so than normal for her, in fact-- but she's also unusually focused on Polycenne's enjoyment over her own. She does try to make sure they eventually get to the baths, though. <.<
[23:41] <GameMaster> Any reason for her deference, there?
[23:44] <LeonaHelissandre> Extension of the pampering she's been indulging in recently, with a hint of feeling guilty for making Polycenne feel guilty earlier. <.<
[23:50] <LeonaHelissandre> At least from her point of view.
[23:51] <GameMaster> Is the guilty a major component?
[23:51] <GameMaster> guilt*
[23:52] <LeonaHelissandre> Minor-- though not *very* minor, if that makes a difference.

[00:03] <GameMaster> Any moment where Leona is putting up an appearance of being overenthusiastic (even if it is just over being regularly enthusiastic), for instance?
[00:08] <LeonaHelissandre> Hm... no, I don't think she'd put on an artifice like that-- the passion is definitely genuine. She might seem slightly reluctant when the attention is focused on her, though?
[00:09] <LeonaHelissandre> For the record-- normally she'd protest a little at first before giving in, if it was just pampering
[00:09] <LeonaHelissandre> rather than being reluctant throughout

[00:15] <GameMaster> Another -3, rather.
[00:15] <LeonaHelissandre> ah
[00:16] <GameMaster> Polycenne had seemingly intended to take things into the bath too (...) however, she uses the occasion of the change of location to talk from upclose, her face almost touching yours "Is... everything alright?".
[00:18] <LeonaHelissandre> I blink, then smile reassuringly (with a hint of puzzlement). Fondly, "Of course. Why wouldn't it be?"
[00:19] <GameMaster> "You are acting a bit more shy than usual when it is your turn" slightly concerned, very fondly.
[00:21] <LeonaHelissandre> "I just want to pamper you a lot lately." I murmur softly, nuzzling 'Cenne's cheek.
[00:27] <GameMaster> "Let me return the favor too. I want to" same tone as you.
[00:30] <LeonaHelissandre> I hesitate briefly. "If... you really want to."
[00:32] <GameMaster> "Do you?" softly.
[00:35] <LeonaHelissandre> "I..." I hesitate again, then admit softly, "I just feel a little guilty about earlier. I want to make up for it."
[00:40] <GameMaster> "You don't have to" a brief pause "but you already are" she starts kissing you again.
[00:41] <LeonaHelissandre> I return the kiss, a little shyly at first, but soon with the same passion as before.
[00:43] <GameMaster> She seems to focus on you for a while, from then onwards, as thought to drive the point (...) does that change anything?
[00:43] <Shoot> ((if so, please describe in detail))
[00:44] <LeonaHelissandre> I initially remain a little reluctant, but it seems to subside as time goes on.
[00:45] <GameMaster> Hmm, you made it back around 18:00, I believe?
[00:45] <LeonaHelissandre> ((you're worse than tari :V))
[00:45] <LeonaHelissandre> uh, sure?
[00:47] <GameMaster> She ends up pushing past dinner time. Do you realize that, and if so, do you do anything about it?
[00:47] <LeonaHelissandre> <.<
[00:48] <LeonaHelissandre> what would i roll for memory?
[00:48] <GameMaster> WIS, in this case, but I need to know how hard it'd be for you to remember in the first place, which is what I am asking.
[00:48] <LeonaHelissandre> ah
[00:48] <LeonaHelissandre> hm
[00:49] <LeonaHelissandre> she is pretty unusually passionate there, so... probably reasonably difficult
