So I'm 18, is 25 real young for a half elf? Like, just barely an adult?

Yeah, I think handsome's a better word for Caleb. He's pretty cute when he blushes though.

Guess it kinda depends why he's blushing though.

[zephrah]

It's considered adult, like, fully grown? But we live about a hundred and eighty, two hundred years. [Keyleth will live much longer than that, but let's not talk about depressing things right now!]

I bet you look cute when you blush too :)

(it's a smiley face, you have to turn it on its side)

[crowboy]

Huh, so yeah that is about the same. Well, I wouldn't've guessed.

I've been told I do, but I guess you'd have to find out for yourself. ;D

(Mine's a winking smiley face, but it's a big smile)

[zephrah]

Oh no, why? Do I look old? Are there wrinkles? Did the adventuring life age me prematurely? :P

(I LIKE YOUR HAPPY WINKY FACE, I want to use that one! That one is a P but it looks like a tongue, see? It means I'm joking! Aren't these fun?! I'm going to put them in every letter I write from now on!)

Sooooooo anyway how do you feel about outdoor sex? There's a nice little field in the garden, behind some maple trees. It's very cozy.

[crowboy]

What? No you ain't got no wrinkles...

[Pause]

Oh you're fucking with me. :P Yeah, they're fun, I've seen some that look even more like faces, but I don't remember how to make them. I can do this one, but I ain't got a reason to (-_-)

Yeah? Sounds real nice, I can meet you there. Should I bring a blanket or something?

[zephrah]

Only a little! ♥

[She doesn't think she has to explain that one is a heart.]

As it happens I've got one already folded up and ready to go.

[crowboy]

Alright! You need me to bring anything? I can get over there in a few minutes.

[Even if this is Keyleth's idea, he feels like he needs to do something other than show up.]

[zephrah]

I can't think of anything! Well, unless you want a drink, but that's not necessary, just nice!

[She's afraid of implying that either of them need a drink to have sex and that would just be rude of her! And not true.]

[crowboy]

I don't think I got anything that's just for sippin anyway. But we can go get some milkshakes after if you want to, I ain't been to Staxx in awhile.

[All he had was moonshine, and that wasn't the same thing as like, wine or something that was good to just sip on. But if she wanted he'd be totally fine with getting some post-sex milkshakes and fries]

Anyway, I'll meet you there in a minute. ♥

[And he won't run, but he's not dawdling either, so he'll be at the gardens sooner than not, finding the little field she'd told him about and looking around to see if she was there.]

M-- Keyleth?

[zephrah]

[Milkshakes sounded absolutely delightful to Keyleth. She used to avoid Staxx, because it was Kira's place and she wasn't overly fond of Kira, but he'd been gone for a while, so it was fine.]

I love it. See you in a bit!

[Keyleth cheats a little, really, tree striding her way easily to the little grove behind the maple trees and getting a blanket spread out, but it doesn't seem like she waits very long before Corbin calls out to her.]

Over here!

[She waves from her spot lounging casually on the ground, hands propped behind her, legs stretched out and legs crossed at the ankles, the hem of her long skirt bunched up a little so that her bare feet and calves are visible.]

Yule Gift

[cobaltsoul]

[When Yule rolled around, an irritated pixie delivered a bottle of excellent Lionett Vineyards wine and a note.]

Happy Yule, Corbin!
-Beauregard

[crowboy]

[Corbin grins and waves back, heading over almost as if he hadn't come here for the express purpose of meeting Keyleth. He stood next to her blanket for a second, smiling at how pretty she looked in the sunlight.]

Hey, nice day ain't it? Mind if I sit down?

[He really hopes so, or this was going to be a bit awkward. But he also wasn't just going to invite himself onto her blanket, that would be a bit rude.]

[zephrah]

[Keyleth leaves a present outside of Corbin's door and hopes the pixies don't steal it, a simple box containing a bracelet made with pretty bric a brac from the garden and a note:]

Happy Yule, with love from Keyleth ♥

[zephrah]

Sure, I think there's room?

[She giggles brightly and draws the material of her skirt closer in to her body to make more room. Was there already ample room? Like yes. But it was a silent way of saying Here, sit close to me!]

[crowboy]

[Corbin will take the verbal invitation to sit down and the silent one to sit close, leaning in to give Keyleth a peck on the cheek, leaning back on his arms, with one hand behind Keyleth, making it easy to lean against him if she feels like it.]

Hope you weren't waitin for me too long.

[zephrah]

[Keyleth is, as the kids like to say, a hugger, so she takes the invitation almost immediately, tipping her head down on Corbin's shoulder and still slightly up to gaze up at the colorful autumnal canopy.]

Mm, if it was I didn't notice. It's such a nice day.

[crowboy]

Yeah, it is. Even nicer with you sitting out here.

[How do flirt. He's trying, and he's at least pretty sure that his idea of 'hey you look pretty' gets across? Maybe?]

[He tips his gaze just enough so he doesn't move her but he can look at her and the way the light coming through the autumn leaves makes shadows across her face. She really does look pretty sitting there, he just doesn't have the words to say it and not feel like a hick]

[warlute]

Hi. It's Kesh, the half-orc from your store the other day.
I'd like you to show me how to use some more of the stuff there. Properly.

[crowboy]

Oh, hey Kesh, how're you doing?

Um, yeah.... yeah sure you got anything in mind you wanted to try?

[warlute]

Yeah um... I'dliketotakeyoutobed.

[ You can practically hear the blush on his face ]

[crowboy]

[There's a weird combination of a blush and a grin on Corbin's]

Yeah I um, kinda figured that part out.

I'm at work right now if you wanna come over. Or I can meet you after, bring some things over you wanna try?

[He is so very open to both of these scenarios, but he knows some people prefer actual beds and stuff]

[warlute]

I... Um... either one works for me. I... I don't have a whole lot of experience so...

[zephrah]

Aww, that's sweet, thank you.

[If it makes you feel any better, Corbin, Keyleth has no idea what a hick even is, much less whether or not you are one. Also! She is absolutely no better at flirting. Possibly she's worse!

Like case in point, she's just gonna tip her head back up, smile, and go in for a kiss. Cause that's way easier than trying to be smooth.]

[crowboy]

[Really, it's probably best not to delve too deeply into Corbin's own ideas about his level of intelligence vs. how other people perceive him. Best to just leave it be, since he has other things to think about. Much better things, like how Keyleth tastes like green and smells like the sunlight. And no matter how bad either of them might be at flirting, Keyleth is pretty dang good at kissing.]

[Corbin leans over, the hand that's not planted on the ground sliding around her waist to urge her closer. It is a lot easier than trying to talk.]

[zephrah]

[Closer is good! Is in your lap close enough, Corbin? Cause that is Keyleth's destination, since it's way more comfortable that way. Her leg bends and hitches up, fingers balling up the material of her skirt to hike it out of the way and let her start moving to straddle his thighs, with a knee planted on either side. It's an unhurried but steady process, her fingers curling lightly in his hair, both to keep him close for kissing and to help steady herself in the transition. There's plenty of pause in case he wants or needs to stop her, or wants something else.]
