@316 = ~Well, it seems that divine blood does not automatically grant divine prowess. Disappointing, but not altogether surprising.~ @317 = ~*sigh* Good morning to you too, Edwin.~ @318 = ~Really, Eddie? Well, *I* happened to *enjoy* myself. Right up to the point just now when you had to spoil everything by opening your big mouth.~ @319 = ~Oh, that's rich coming from the man who puts padding inside his robe to make himself look bigger.~ @320 = ~That's a really hurtful thing to say. And I'm not surprised. You always do this. Whenever you're afraid that I'm going to hurt your feelings by rejecting you, you try to push me away first.~ @321 = ~What do you mean 'good'? Do you know it's going to be good, or do you just hope so? Or do you mean it's been good so far, or that you hope it's going to be good for me, or for you, or possibly for both of us?~ @322 = ~What ever are you going on about?~ @323 = ~Edwin, are you feeling ill? Is there anything I can do for you?~ @324 = ~Men...talk, talk, talk all the time. Can't we just make love again? Next you'll probably want to discuss *emotions*.~ @325 = ~Will you just answer the question?~ @326 = ~What question?~ @327 = ~Er...was it good for you? (It should have been. Am I not Edwin Odesseiron, who makes women fall at his feet when they see him coming? Only...for her I want it to be not just 'good'. For her it should be perfect.)~ @328 = ~Yes, it was. Very, very good. I loved every moment of it, I thought you knew that. And I'm surprised at your complaints, you seemed enthusiastic enough before.~ @329 = ~It was just fine, Edwin. What? You didn't think I was faking it, did you?~ @330 = ~No, it wasn't. It was repulsive and I'd rather be touched by a rotting ghoul.~ @331 = ~Aha! So you were enjoying yourself! (I knew it! I am the King of the World!)~ @332 = ~Maybe. Or maybe I lied just now and was only pretending earlier.~ @333 = ~I thought it was just wonderful. And I thought you did too. So why are you pretending that you didn't?~ @334 = ~Forget it! A Mindflayer would have brought me more pleasure. The tentacles look pretty interesting, actually.~ @335 = ~Pretending?~ @336 = ~You know...so as not to hurt your feelings. I'm the Queen of Kindness after all. But if you're going to be rude I don't see why I should bother to make the effort.~ @337 = ~I'm sorry, Edwin. I shouldn't tease you. I adored our time together, it's everything I dreamed of.~ @338 = ~To care about you, you idiot. I only wanted to get you into bed. But now I see you're nothing special in that department, so I guess I'll look for something better.~ @339 = ~No! You're lying! You have to be lying! (She couldn't possibly have faked *that*, could she? Or that wonderful thing she did when...)~ @340 = ~Of course I am. But what about? That's the question isn't it? Have fun trying to figure it out.~ @341 = ~Oh Edwin...of course I am. I had the most wonderful time with you, you made me feel so beautiful and special...~ @342 = ~No I'm not. But I did before. I was only curious to see what you were like in bed, and now I know. A joke. A sad joke.~ @343 = ~Tell me right now or I'll put a curse on you, you insufferably smug little...(No. Wait.) I mean...please?~ @344 = ~Oh, all right. I had a great time. It was pure magic, and you nearly made me faint with pleasure.~ @345 = ~Fine! I hated every endlessly long minute of your inept pawing, if you must know! Now shut up!~ @346 = ~That is *not* true!~ @347 = ~Yes it is. At least I finally found out what a Red Wizard has under his robes. Nothing much, at least performance wise.~ @348 = ~*smile* Oh Edwin, you should have seen the look on your face. I was only teasing you. Oh, and I did have a wonderful time with you too.~ @349 = ~Well, *you* might as well have been a zombie, judging by the level of your erotic skills.~ @350 = ~And *you* might as well have been a yipping kobold. Annoying, ugly and - diminutive.~ @351 = ~Is that what you think? Then perhaps I need some more practise... *kiss Edwin passionately*~ @352 = ~Hold on...can't you see what you're doing? Every time we get close, you try to insult me. Are you really that afraid that I'll hurt you, that you'd rather drive me off?~ @353 = ~Harpy!~ @354 = ~Ogre!~ @355 = ~Harpy? Have you taken a look at *your* fingernails recently?~ @356 = ~All right, I'm not playing anymore. Do you always have to try to offend me as soon as we get close?~ @357 = ~You mean less to me than the slimy trail of slime left behind by a Mustard Jelly!~ @358 = ~I don't think so. I'm neither blind nor deaf, you know. I loved every minute I spent in your arms, and I *know* that you enjoyed it too.~ @359 = ~As if I'd *want* to mean anything to the rancid and reeking offspring of a revenant and a rabid goat!~ @360 = ~Is that so? Let's put that to the test, shall we? *caress Edwin*~ @361 = ~'Rancid and reeking'? *chuckle* You are losing your touch, . Obviously due to my manly form distracting you.~ @362 = ~'Slimy trail of slime'? *grin* The only one losing it is *you*, boy.~ @363 = ~Well...now that you mention it I *do* find you terribly distracting. *snuggle up to Edwin*~ @364 = ~Maybe so. Edwin...I really did love the time we spent together. And I think you did too, didn't you?~ @365 = ~Nonsense. As are your feeble efforts at dissembling. You adored every minute we spent together, didn't you? (I think she did...she has to have done so! Just say yes...)~ @366 = ~Yes, all right. I *did* have a wonderful time, and I adored every minute. And so did you, unless I'm entirely mistaken.~ @367 = ~You are so full of it, Edwin! Getting vivisected by Irenicus was more pleasant and entertaining.~ @368 = ~, what are you... Ah...never mind, just do it again. But first let me pleasure *you*...~ @369 = ~*much later* Edwin...that was just perfect, even more so than last night.~ @370 = ~Well...that was pretty boring. I think I fell asleep at some point.~ @371 = ~I do nothing of the sort!~ @372 = ~Yes, you do. You seem sadly unable to understand that I actually care deeply about you, and I think you are so afraid of getting hurt that you try to hurt me first. I've put up with it, but now I am getting a bit weary of it.~ @373 = ~*sigh* Never mind. If my words have no effect, perhaps actions can show you how I really feel. *kiss Edwin deeply*~ @374 = ~That's it! I've *had* it with you! You're utterly hopeless!~ @375 = ~I have *no* idea what you are talking about. (My face is totally unreadable. Yes. Unreadable and enigmatic, giving nothing away.)~ @376 = ~Oh, I think you do. You may act foolishly sometimes, but you are *not* stupid. Now look me in the eyes and tell me honestly that you didn't love the time we spent together.~ @377 = ~Your left eyebrow is twitching again...I know you're lying. But if it helps, I'll tell you first. I've never felt happier than I did in your arms, and I loved every moment.~ @378 = ~Arrrghh! I'm fed up with this! Fine! I was just as bored with you as you were with me! Happy?~ @379 = ~Ah. Well. In that case, , I must confess that I did indeed appreciate our...activities. Very much so. In fact, I believe my brain may have coagulated at one point due to an overdose of bliss. (Either that or I'm about to come down with a bad cold.)~ @380 = ~Suffice it to say that I am feeling quite drained from this prolonged contact with your exquisite and divine personage, but as soon as that passes I won't mind a repeat performance. (Oh, good. It passed.)~ @381 = ~And why didn't you tell me this before?~ @382 = ~To be fair, , you did make me humble myself a little, and beg for your attentions. I thought it would be amusing to turn the tables, so to speak.~ @383 = ~And possibly you were worried that I would criticize your 'opening night' and felt you needed to be reassured before being honest with me?~ @384 = ~Edwin...you really can be quite hopeless sometimes. And that's exactly what makes you so adorable.~ @385 = ~Well, I...er...we had better get going. Yes. Plenty of important things to do, I'm sure. Unless you fancy some more...wandwork?~ @386 = ~Come now, , you don't really mean that, do you? Do you?~ @387 = ~*sigh* No, I suppose not. You just made me very angry with you, by saying you didn't care. Actually, I loved the time we had together, and would very much like to do it again.~ @388 = ~(truth) Yes, I meant every word. And you might as well have stayed female, because you're obviously no good as a male.~ @389 = ~If that is the case, , then I see we have nothing further to discuss. (But I will make certain to spread the tale of this night around, in a version of my own choosing.)~
