Quinn hmmms "the notion is weird for me. If i have a kid with a human i'm going to outlive it for sure. I don't know what happens with elves and well. one of us is always going to be out of the loop in a baby situation right? so like, if you and Ireena had kids they'd be half elves and well. i dunno. its weird. its a weird thing we're doing"

 

[SubPhil91]

Lucan nods and looks back down at Quinn. "Yeah, you're not wrong. None of this is normal, but if we enjoy it what does it really matter? You would outlive a kid you had with a human most likely. God thing im not human huh?" He smiles and bumps her with his hip. "But we will figure it out as we go. Its not like any of us plan on staying a family tomorrow or something."

 

[siobhancan99]

Quinn nods "thank the gods for that. Can you imagine? here?" she makes a face and looks out over the camp "so do we have a list of other wrongs to right around here? in case we're stuck? werewolves, creepy tree men.."

 

[SubPhil91]

Lucan nods, "I heard something about druids a while back, get that Baron out of power, maybe try to figure out how we can help those crazy half people at the abbey? I'm sure there is more but I can't think of anything else. But I'm sure we will find out something else going wrong. Oh maybe go back for that vampire spawn in Barovia?"

 

[siobhancan99]

Quinn looks over at lucan "i think maybe with the influence of strahd gone, the druids might take care of themselves. They are super earth tied right? so his corrupting influence might have driven them to evil. with him gone maybe they can right themselves. for sure that other vampire. i think his father's hope for a cure is unrealistic. to be quite honest, that should probably be our first stop."

 

[SubPhil91]

"Fair point, they might take care of themselves with Strah gone. As for the other vampire, I agree. I wish I could say there's hope, but I don't think there's hope for that. I've never heard of a spawn turning human. As sad as it is to say, that spawn is too dangerous to the village to be kept alive. It takes one wrong thing for it to get out and kill half the village.." Lucan turns his attention back to Quinn.

 

[siobhancan99]

Quinn nods "yeah. it has to be dealt with.His father needs the closure as well. im sure he's probably feeding it his own blood for now" she shakes her head and stands "im heading down to the lake for a bit"

 

[SubPhil91]

Lucan nods and runs his hand over her arm. "Okay, lunch will be ready soon. I'm gonna go talk to Erlen, give you some time to yourself. I know you don't get it much since you have both ireena and I always up your butt." He smiles and squeezes her butt. "I'll be around if you need anything though."

 

[siobhancan99]

"i think if you were ever up my butt i'd know" Quinn winks and dashes away, laughing. she heads on down to the lake, looking for Ireena to see what she's up to on her walk.

 

[SubPhil91]

Ireena is slowly walking around the lake looking out over it. Lucan heads over to speak to Erlen for a while. Ireena stops walking after a few minutes and sits down on a large rock overlooking the lake. You can see her look over and smile before looking back out over the lake. You hear music start up again as the vistani start dancing around the bonfire before they start serving a large lunch of stew, veggies, bread, and pie.

 

[siobhancan99]

Quinn settles in behind Ireena on the rock and presses into her warm back. she kisses her neck and wraps her arms tight around her, just quietly looking out over the lake as well, not really feeling the need to say much of anything. she just revels in a quiet moment with someone she cares about.

 

[SubPhil91]

Ireena smiles feeling Quinn's arms around her. She leans back into Quinn and stays quiet. Looking out over the lake just feels comforting. Its calmness is only disturbed occasionally splash toward the center of the lake. Its hard to tell whats actually causing the splash from so far away but ireena seems focused elsewhere and doesn't even pay attention to the splashing. After a few minutes of silence Ireena leans her head back and kisses Quinn's cheek. After a few more moments you finally hear her quiet voice. "Enjoy your talk with Lucan?"

 

[siobhancan99]

Quinn nods "we talked about next steps after Strahd." she runs her hands along Ireena's arms and then slides them down to take her hands and hold them "about what our options were as far as the next thing to tackle. maybe a little arrogant in the conversation given we havent beaten him yet..." she rests her head on Ireena's shoulder "but we have to live as if we will. we talked about kids too which. way way too early for that conversation" she laughs "but i mean, you know me i have a plan just in case."

 

[SubPhil91]

Ireena laughs softly and rests her head on Quinn's. "You two talked about kids? Damn that does seem like a bit too early. But hey, better to get it out than be surprised about having different views down the road I guess." She closes her eyes and doesn't speak for a few moments. "We are goingnto beat him. I know we are, so its good to start thinking about what we need to do after. Like go take care of that damn vampire spawn. If it hasn't ripped through the whole damn village by then. Im sure there are other things too but I think we need to take care of that sooner rather than later."

 

[siobhancan99]

Quinn nods "i'd have killed it the first night but Marius asked us not to" she shrugs "he said the town needed the priest more than it needed the spawn dead" she kisses Ireena's shoulder "at the time he was probably right. but i think we all agree that's the first stop. plus then you can head home and decide what to do about the manor." she kisses Ireena's cheek and looks back out over the lake. "what have you been thinking about? if its not intruding"

 

[SubPhil91]

"Marius asked you not to because he's close friends with the boy.. Spawn. I mean, he's not wrong the village needs their priest but still." She turns her head and kisses Quinn gently on the lips. "I was just thinking how nice it would be if the sun was out.. Looking out over the lake and seeing the sun reflected off of it. I'm just ready to see the sun, and soak it in. Feel the warmth of it instead of this cold ass weather. Then I could actually go into the lake and swim without freezing my tits off. I know I'm warm all the time but I still get cold. Except when you hold me.."

 

[siobhancan99]

quinn runs her fingers through Ireena's hair "well be prepared to be warm a lot" she kisses her forehead, sighing as she feels herself falling more and more for the girl. she cradles her in her arms, still looking out over the lake. she feels warm, but can see her breath frosting in the winter air "it would be nice to see summer again" she kisses Ireena's temple "just.... 4 stops right? 3 fanes then the man himself." she wraps her legs against her girl as well. "we dont want strahd to ambush us on the road, so be careful fighting the fanes. we dont want him freaking the fuck out. when we get to him on our terms, then we go all out. but we be careful till then"

 

[SubPhil91]

Ireena smiles and leans back into Quinn. "Hopefully its not too warm, then you won't want to cuddle with me, it'll be too hot..we will all be careful and hopefully we don't run into him until we are ready. Four more stops.. Four stops until freedom and sunlight. I can't wait, but I'm glad we are getting a day of relaxation. I needed this." She runs her hands over Quinns nails before dragging her nails over them lightly. "I'm nervous though.. What if he's still too strong even without the fanes?"

 

[siobhancan99]

Quinn shrugs "then he is. we wont have to worry about that very long. a minute or so at most really" she keeps her arms around Ireena "and then we wont be worrying about anything else" she kisses her temple, morbid but also pragmatic "I won't let him take you and turn you" though that might mean an outcome that was still less than optimal, she'd spare the girl undeath if it meant killing her herself. "we have to fight as if he's going to win, but we have to live our lives as if he isn't"

 

[SubPhil91]

She nods and lifts Quinn's hands up to kiss them. "I wont let him kill you. If it really came down to it, I wouldn't let him. But I'm going to do my best to make sure we can kill him. I want us all to get out of here and live happy lives. Even if it takes a few more years to get the gold we need. I know regardless it won't take long to know the outcomes of the fight.. But we all need to be on our A game. You can't be worried about me and Lucan on the front lines while he's attacking us. Please.. Focus on the fight and think straight."

 

[siobhancan99]

Quinn nods "you two are clutch. lucan needs to use that symbol and worry less about fighting. you need to use that sword though and think more about fighting" she laughs "i promise though, my ass is in the rear. im a wizard dammit."

 

[SubPhil91]

Ireena smiles and nods. "Dont worry, that asshole never shuts up about finally killing Strahd. So I'll be up there slashing and stabbing as much as I can. Just stay back and do what you need to do. And don't get hit. Just be careful.. I know he knows some spells. He might fire something at you. That I won't be able to protect you from unfortunately." Ireena smirks and pulls away from Quinn before turning around to face her. "Just be careful and don't get over confident. We will need you to hit him back so we might get to avoid some attacks." Ireena pushes Quinn back lightly and gets on top of her before pinning her down. "I need your ass to be safe."

 

[siobhancan99]

Quinn looks up at Ireena "you neeed my ass to be tight toned and pale as hell. fortunately for you it is" she grins and kisses her girl, then tugs her down atop her close. she looks up into her eyes, her leg tangling in Ireena's. she shifts a little under her so that the two can get comfortable. Looking up, she watches her "i promise ill be careful. the goal is to live through all this"

 

[SubPhil91]

Ireena leans down and kisses Quin's lips gently. "Luckily for you I think pale is sexy. But yes, that is our goal. I need us all to be safe and get through this together." She smiles and looks down into Quinn's eyes. She gets comfortable as she can laying on the rock with Quinn. "We will make it through this just fine, I know it. We might get a few scratches or something but we will be alright. Then we can get out of here and sight see before having to go on more adventures to pay for our retirement from adventuring."
