Did you ask Xenk to unthrall someone or something???

[aria_ardeinae]

Yes. It seemed like a perfectly reasonable thing to ask at the time, but it was awful.

[serpendipity]

Of course it would be! If I remember, most of the thralls in the castle are failed novices. Imagine what they'd be thinking if the enthrallment was suddenly dropped.

[aria_ardeinae]

I don't have to imagine it.

He said that it's not uncommon for them to attack, too. I can't blame them; I certainly would.

[serpendipity]

When it comes down to survival and desperation? Anything would be possible at that point. Will you be able to handle it when enthrallment is going to be part of your duties and skills?

[aria_ardeinae]

The alternative is becoming a thrall myself. I will be able to handle it, because I must.

[serpendipity]

Technically the alternative is another court before even that, but if you insist it's all or nothing... actually that kind of determination is really attractive.

[aria_ardeinae]

Every court has something inherently distasteful to it. I'll choose the method of my own suffering, and thereby control it.

[serpendipity]

I say it's attractive and you show your determination even more... If I said I had ropes in my drawer where you could also show your domineering side, would you show up to my room?

[ He is awfully worked up... ]

Shameless as always!

I'll be over presently.

[ The cat's out of the bag already. What are they going to do, run an evening edition with an update?? ]

[serpendipity]

You like me being shameless. At least in private.
