PREMISE

All the stories are true. Years ago, the Fae came out because technology was making it harder and harder for them to hide, and it's been a couple of years since the werewolves did the same. The world is changing day by day. Humans and the paranormal live side by side, but it's not easy nor is it simple. While the Marrok has taken great lengths and care to preserve the werewolves' PR front, everyone - wolf, fae, vampire and other - know that it's only a matter of time before the humans start thinking that perhaps the other stories meant to warn of the dark are true.

This is an open post set in the universe of Patricia Briggs' Mercy Thompson series. The books are amazing and you should definitely check them out. More information via this Wiki link. The rules are simple: Drop a prompt, leave a tag, and let's play!

Let us go with the last one.

[ He leans into her touch, grateful over how well she takes things in stride. ]

If anything, it is the explanation I am most comfortable with because it rings the most true.

[lastcall]

[She could question what it is about her original theory he thinks doesn't ring true, but in the end she is...simply glad that this conversation has gone so much better than the other two. Her leg slides higher to stay closer to Asil, smile fading to a more relaxed, neutral expression. Her tone remains light and easy.]

In that case, I think I could get away with a lot, with the amount of charm I have. [She leans in to kiss the corner of his mouth.] Is there anything you want to talk to me about, or ask me, before we decide what we want to do next with our day?

[nosco]

Nothing that cannot wait.

[ He hugs her close and caresses her cheek. ]

Would you like another movie? Otherwise I am happy to carry you back upstaurs where we can idle around in bed.

Granted, [ his eyes warm with the suggestion ] you are also free to enjoy me however you please.

[lastcall]

[It's been Asil's way, Eun realizes, to prompt her to say what's on her mind even when she mentions that it's nothing that needs discussing at that moment. She half considers doing the same, but she is easily distracted by the offer to carry her back up to bed and let her do as she pleases with him. A smile slides back onto her face as she cuddles in closer against him.]

Oh, how could I possibly resist that offer? I think you should definitely carry me back upstairs to your bed, mi amor.

[They are not so hurried now, and Eun is certain that not only will she enjoy being carried up once more, but the time to laze around in bed with him. While it's true that he has offered to let her enjoy him as she pleases, she wonders if he'll expect that at least at the start, there's little more that she wants than to enjoy holding him and being held.]
