Session Start: Tue Aug 07 20:07:16 2001 * Logging #pureland to 'logs\#pureland.log' :) Okay. Quite on the set.. I'm always here. er Quiet. ^^ * Cody yays and gets IC :o ~~ INTERLUDE START ~~ The group made it to Kakkara safely as night falls, dispersing for some relaxation, relieved that the God Beast of Fire doesn't seem to be making trouble... yet. Cody had retired to a room almost immediately, tired from his role of "King for a Day". Little does he know the night's going to be even more interesting than that... :) Ťooc: So it's around midnight, huh? ^^ ť Ť mm.. i'd say before, but close... ^^ ť <> *** Bahamut (bahamut@brndas11-p57.mts.net) has joined #Pureland *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Bahamut Ťooc: Heya Baha :) ť Ť just in time. ^^ ť * Cody is curled up in his bed, the sheets draped about him in a rather messy fashion. The window is open, a soft desert wind cascading through the room. Ťooc: cascading...drifting...er... ť << heyas. ^^;; No one tells me what the occasion is, so I have to intrude and feel bad. ;_; >> Ťooc: ^^ YOU KNOW ť Ťooc: S'all good ^_^ I can change it later if you want. ť << I know what? ^^; >> Ťooc: ;_; I no know. ť <<*tries to decide how she'll do this.*>> << now I'm just confused. ^^; >> Ťooc: Just jump his bones. QUICKIE LUDE ^^ ť Ťooc: I am too. ;-; ť Ť Don't do that ;_; ť Ťooc: LOL. i'm joking ^_^ ť >> A rather decently sized rock comes flying through the open window, landing with a thud upon the floor. There is a rope attached to it....it skitters across the floor before the catching on the window sill. The wind blows across Cody's form a litle hotter than one might expect from the chill desert at night. <> Ť lol ^^ ť Ťooc: O_O For a second I thought it hit Cody O_O ť * Cody shifts a bit at the noise, but doesn't awaken. <> Ť nah, i'd think it's at least 2-3 stories ť * Rachel clambers up the rope, hauling herself into the window silently...she perches on the sill before stepping down to the floor, exhaling. ^^; . o O (You'd think I'd be used to this heroic stuff by now! Jeez...) * Cody contiunes to sleep ^^ * Rachel slides to Cody's door, making sure it is firmly locked, before heading to his bed. She reaches out to shake him gently. Mmmm...? * Cody opens his eyes slowly and blinks upon seeing Rachel's form in the darkness, "...Rachel?" Well it's certainly not Roric. ^_- W...What's going on? Something wrong? * Rachel shakes her head and smiles a little. "No. C'mon, put on something casual and grab some Luc...we're going to miss our flight." Flight? *Sits up fully now* ...Where to? * Rachel backs away slightly and turns, heading for the window and peering out it into the darkness, bathed in the moonlight... "Do you trust me?" << Hmm.. I am reminded of... Aladdin... ^^;; >> <> <> Ťooc: LOL O_O ť Ťooc: Wow. Yeah, me too ^^ ť Ťooc: CARPET! Let's go! :o ť <> Of course...but...What about the others...? << Rachel: Unbelieeevable siiiiights! Cody: Indescribable feeeeeeeeeeeeling! >> They'll be okay. I've got a small green glowing fairy to handle them. Besides, we'll be back. ^_- Ť Hmm.. darn.. you're right ^^ ť <<*flogs Baha with the tiger beanie baby*>> * Bahamut << is the GoE and is impervious to attack. * Sorry. ;_; >> * Cody stands up, "Okay...I don't know what you're planning...but I trust you. ^^; I'll get ready." * Rachel nods again and turns her gaze fully out the window, giving Cody some privacy....she is clad in newer clothes, a fine dark royal blue tunic with green patterns on the sleeves and tight women's travelling pants.. ^^ You can almost detect a faint bit of..make up? *** Ashton (flare_star@lsanca1-ar7-216-015.lsanca1.dsl.gtei.net) has joined #pureland *** ChanServ sets mode: +o Ashton * Cody runs off in a side room to get ready, wondering what this is all about. ^^;; << Heyas, Ash. ^^ >> Ťooc: Ashton! My luvah. ť Ť Hi Ashton. ^_^ ť Ťooc: Yo. ^^; ť . o O (He probably thinks I'd peek or something....well, I might've....it's nothing I haven't seen before...) * Rachel grins slightly to herself. ^^; Ť Bath Time is Fun Time Rachel. ;) ť <<....heheheh. ;)>> Ťooc: Indeed. ^^ ť * Rachel breathes deeply to calm the odd nervousness in her stomach and turns back, crossing her arms and tapping her foot, amused. * Cody returns with a smile, dressed in his usual travelling clothes. His hair is a tad wet...apparently to tame down those nasty nightime cowlicks, "^^ I'm ready." Great.... ^_- Leave your bag....but bring the drum? Er...okay? ^^; * Cody sets the bag down, but reaches inside and pulls out the drum. ^^ * Rachel looks out the window once more and then reaches for Cody. "So, you do trust me, right?" ^_- <> Ť hoo boy.. ť Of course! * Cody grabs her hand. * Rachel tugs Cody up against her and wraps an arm around his waist tightly. "Arms around my neck, please." ^_- ^^; You're going to swing from chandeliers again? * Cody puts his arms around her neck, amused ^^ Something like that. Hold on tight. ;) ...Oh dear. * Cody holds on tighter! ^^ * Rachel kisses Cody's forehead lightly before falling backwards out the window, grunting faintly as they both begin to fall! * Rachel reaches out with her free hand and quickly snags the rope, sliding down it with her feet braced on the Inn wall! . o O (Ow...ow...ow...rope burns...ow...ow...) * Cody grits his teeth in order not to yell out in surprise! Cody recieves quite a scare from the daring do, but he's still in one piece. ^^ * Rachel hits the ground with a thud, her knees threatening to give out but landing safely. "Ah....there." * Cody exhales, "Wow...Startled me there...but was rather fun! ^^" It's only the beginning....c'mon... ^_- You notice the night sky is very clear, many stars twinkling across the sea of blue. Not many people are in the streets, and the bazaar has long since shut down for business. Only the beginning? ^^ Hmmm. * Rachel leads Cody away from the Inn, taking his hand until they reach a clearing of sand amidst some cacti...away from most of the buildings... <> Ťooc: Crabs :o ť <> Ť Don't rip off.. that was our thing ;_; ť Here...? Ťooc: Yeah, instead a moongose will see our fun! ť Yep...call the big white beast so we can get on our way.. ^_- Ťooc: "mongoose", hon. ť Can do! * Cody uses the Flammie drum! ^^ ...Hope we're not waking her up or anything. ^^ I'm sure she won't mind... this is important. ^_- I still wish I knew what your were planning. ^_- Flammie appears and kicks up a dusty cloud, looking curiously at the two. [Flammie] Rowr? * Rachel sneezes a little and then grins, petting Flammie and hopping onboard...she reaches down, offering Cody a hand.... "Hi, girl...sorry to wake you. We have a special run to make." * Cody looks just as confused as Flammie ^^ She then looks back to the Inn once, then up at rachel, the at Cody, then back at Rachel. "Mmmrr..." <> * Cody takes Rachel's hand and hawls himself up, wrapping his shawl around his shoulders. * Rachel looks amusedly at Cody and then leans down, whispering to Flammie.. ^^ * Rachel straightens up. "You can do that, can't ya, girl? Let's see how fast you can go!" Flammie seems to pause a second, thinking, then she leaps into the air. Whoa-! <> * Cody hangs on tight! Ťooc: Behind :) ť [Flammie] Rowrrr... mmowrrr! ^_^ * Rachel grips tight but leans back slightly into Cody, letting the wind roar through her hair. ^^ Ť actually Flammie doesn't mind going to this place for reasons i won't disclose atm. ^_^ ť * Cody reaches out and hangs onto Rachel ^^ Flammie circles higher and higher into the air, and veers to the southwest, and flaps into what you can make out as the ocean. In the middle of it you can see a small island. Several lights blink through the hazy air from it. ...Are we heading there...? * Rachel grins and gazes intently at the island.. "There we go....our destination for tonight!" * Cody points to the island. * Rachel nods a little and reaches slightly behind her to carress Cody's cheek.. ^^ * Cody blinks a few times, "...I really wish I knew what you're planning. ^^" All in due time. ^_- it's not long before you're right over the tiny round landmass. You can see the lights are actually from some kind of fair going on... Ťooc: Millenial fair! ť Flammie! Found somewhere to land! Try not to squish any natives! ^_- <> <> Flammie begins to descend, putting down in the shallows of what could only be described as a gorgeous beach. the grains of sand sparkle in the reflections of the fairgrounds, the waves crashing over them lazily. *** Radien (radien@c339940-a.eugene1.or.home.com) has joined #pureland << You RPing still? ^^; >> Wow...this place is beautiful...never seen anything like this... *** GMStoren changes topic to '-=- Chapter 39.1: Midnight Notions | Location: Booskaboo Isle | Time: Mana Holy Day, Night | 1230 Luc -=- Aloha: http://ddi.digital.net/~ekberg/SOM_roughs/' Ťooc: Yep ^^ ť << Ahh. Unmoderated. >> << Anyway, don't rush yourselves; SO2 may start a little late seeing as dinner is upon me and you guys are luding now. >> * Rachel slides down off Flammie and reaches up for Cody, helping him down. "....you wanted just one night to be a normal guy.....here you go." <> You'd almost think the footprints Flammie's large paws and Rachel's make in it were the first time it's been disturbed. * Cody blinks a bit in shock, and then looks touched, "...Rachel...: Ťooc: er " ^^ ť Ť one second ť <> Thank you so much... << Alright. See you in SO2. ^^ >> * Rachel gently pries the drum from Cody's hand, tucking the object into the back of her waistband, hiding it from sight...she pets Flammie's fur gently, smiling almost shyly at Cody. "Don't thank me yet..." * Cody smiles, "...It's just...wow... ^^;" Flammie lets go a contented low growl, and she begins to lift off, and depart the place, leaving the two to themselves. ^^ * Rachel takes Cody's hand and pads away from the landing spot, heading for the lighted fairgrounds... "Forget that you're the King...that you're the Gemma...right now, you're just Cody...and I'm just Rachel. Two normal people." That sounds good to me... ^^ I like that plan. You also notice a few people on the island have come over to the beach, catching sight of the great white beast. :o They seem to have friendly faces, and nice tans. two of them come over and wrap some flowery wreaths over Cody and rachel. "Welcome to Booskaboo Isle!" *** Radien is now known as Radinner *** Radinner is now known as Radien *** Radien is now known as Radinner * Radinner is gone (Time for dinner.) * Rachel laughs softly and fingers her wreath in amusement. "Thank you!" * Cody smiles at the woman, doing likewise, "Wow...thanks a lot!" ^^ [Native] We don't get many visitors way out here, so relax and enjoy yourselves. ^_^ Ťooc: Native: Except that one spainish explorer who exploited our people for gold!...But you seem nice! Yessiree! ť Ť I'm just waitying for Cody to say something about godbeasts.. heh ^^ ť * Rachel nods and continues on her way to the carnival... "That'd be the plan..." ^_- Ť lol Cody ^^ ť <> Ťooc: ^^ You want me to? :p ť Ť Nono, i was just saying.. ;) ť <> Ťooc: Kay ^_^ ť * Cody follows behind Rachel, taking in all the sights. ^^ *** DNW (dnwwheeler@dialup-63.208.134.90.Dial1.SanFrancisco1.Level3.net) has joined #pureland Ťooc: DNW!! :D ť . o O (Does he like it? Is he okay with this? What if he's not? What if I screwed up and everyone thinks that I've run off with him in some attempt to get away forever? What if...) *** Cody sets mode: +o DNW << Hiyas, DNW. :) >> As you approach what you could consider the town square, you can see it's alive with lots of laterns hanging from booths and restaurants, and lots of other things. You can even see the other side of the island from here too... Quite a lot of people for such a small place, huh? ^^ Everyone seems to be laughing and enjoying themselves, like there isn't even a world ending. ^^; <> Ť Blissful ignorance! haha :D ť * Rachel smiles a little.. "Yeah....it's really beautiful...." ...Is there anything you really want to do? I'm open to anything! ^^ Some exotic music wafts in from a cafe, as well as some interesting smells that fill your nostrils. There's a line for something you can't get a good look at, but it seems like some kind of carnvial game by the loud sound that follows one person's attempt at playing. there's also an array of shops, one of which has flowers much like the ones you're weraing on display. << Rachel: Well.. there's an empty barrel over there that I think we could both fit into, stud.. >> <> Ť Hey, noone's ever asked me about using barrels in SoM ^^; ť Well...we could eat....or play a game....shop... ^_- Whatever you want to do, Cody.... we have all the time we could want! There's also a few homes, made of materials that look very reminiscent of something you'd find on a deserted island. ^^ << No, I'm not really.. I'm actually feeling really sick and ill, my throat is very sore, and my mood is remarkably crappy. I just tried to say something that might get a chuckle or two. >> Ťooc: ...You know. For fucking ;) ť <> Ťooc: *hugs Baha* ť Ť ack :( Louou with us in spirit Baha! ť * Bahamut << returns the hug. * ;_; >> <<*hugs JerrBear* ;_;>> Hmmm... * Cody thinks, "Perhaps a game, huh? ^^" Ťooc: Aw, Baha... :\ ť To get warmed up! * Bahamut << returns J's hug too.. * >> Ťooc: *hugs Jerrbear along with Heather* ť Ťooc: *hands Jerr some warm tea as well for his throat* ť There's one home that's larger than the rest on the north end of the place, with a little balcony that you notice two people holding hands and watching the moon together and sipping margaritas. ^_^ <> Ťooc: BRB myself. ^_^ ť * Rachel squeezes Cody's hand and gently leads him to the line up for the busy game, curious as to what the game is.. ^^ <> Hey Rachel? What drink are those two having up on the balcony? I've never seen anything like that before... Hmm? Oh... You step into line, notices a lot of gaffaws as one guy swings a rather big mallet at a pedestal connect to a palm tree. A ring of ivory shoots up the trunk, coming just shy of hitting a rather large nut hanging on it. ^^; * Rachel looks up... "Either a margarita or tequila.... tropical type drinks...we can have some later..." Ťooc: Sorry about being AFK :( Mom kicked me off. ť Achoholic, huh? ^^ Hmm. * Rachel redirects her gaze to the game, looking pleased... "But not before we show these guys how strong we are!" ^_- [Native] You're never going to get it, Bernie.. haha! Hah! ^^ Ťooc: Stolar! BERNIE STOLAR MADE A CAMEO AGGH ť <> Ť uhh.. actually that wasn't it, but think what you want ^^ ť It's soon rachel's turn, a rather tall and thin man in a flowery shirt handing her the mallet. "Hey, tourists... care to try your luck? Hit the top and win free food at the cafe!" Go for it, Rachel! You can do it! ...oh yeah? ^_- Sounds like easy pickings... * Cody cheers her on! [Game Man] Be warned though, many have tried.. few have done it! * Rachel winks at Cody and swaggers to the line before the pedestal....she twirls the hammer a few times as she adopts a pose similar to when she is in battle.. ^^ Let's see if I can break this thing. ;) * Rachel draws back and slams the mallet into the pedestal! Rachel pounds the pedestal, nearly shaking the poor thing.. the ivory marker rockets into the sky and connects with the coconut at the top, making a loud *CRACK* All right! ^^ It shakes loose and then hits the other fellow in the head, prompting the crowd to laugh again. ^_^ * Rachel blows on the mallet and winks at the Game Man. "Piece of cake." [Game Man] now that's strength... you've earned it friends! Enjoy.. *he flicks two complimentary tickets at Rachel* * Rachel accepts the tickets and hands the mallet back, happily strutting back to Cody and wrapping an arm around his waist, waving the tickets in front of his face. "Free food?" ^_- * Cody 's stomach growls in response, "Mm...sounds good to me!" * Rachel leads Cody away from the crowd, breathing deep the smell of the air.... "Mmm...I guess it's time to wine and dine you, hmm? Show off my great people skills!" ;) Ťooc: Aww man! I gotta eat ;_; ť Ťooc: I BRB, kay? :D ť Ť lol, how ironic. :) ť <> Ťooc: We pause, then :) ť Ťooc: ^_^ ť ~~ PAUSE ~~ Ťooc: right? ť *** Cody is now known as Cody-away * Cody-away is gone (FOOD IS GOOD) Hmm hmm hmm... ^^ *** GMStoren changes topic to '-=- Chapter 39.1: Midnight Notions | Location: Booskaboo Isle | Time: Mana Holy Day, Night | 1230 Luc -=- Aloha: http://ddi.digital.net/~ekberg/SOM_roughs/ | -PAUSED-' Bwar :D * GMStoren grooves to 'Color of the Summer sky' * Chriswizard wonders what he might NPC to if he can :D I could be a flower seller!

Good ^^; I can't recall where it's from offhand.. ^^ * Heather's mom stares at Heather before bursting out into wild laughter! ?! What!

Or Imperial Credit? Damn! That must be one rare flower to cost more than the programmers allow you to have! * DNW steals some luc from the party's total As rare as a 1:16th scale airship, I'm sure. Storen: It's like the guy who'll fix your map in CT. >> the party realizes the seller is hawking Dryad. Is it a 1:16th scale Dryad? [Dryad] ;_; What happens when you collect all 16? You won't. Some bratty kid who has a rich father who has more money than you can ever have will always buy it. ^^; You get the best weapon in the game! It's... a frying pan. ^_^ Aw... It's the mana Skillet :D WTF It'll do 9999999 damage to Entropy even ^_^ I dunno what's scarier....the fact I heard my parents having sex or the fact I made myself a sandwich while they were doing it. Ooooh Baha: It sucks though ;_; I was like " I have bloody 99999999999 GIl! YOU CAN"T DO THIS TO MEEEEEEE! ;_;" achel: Ooookay. ^^ Yeah. ^^; * GMStoren reminds you this is why he's glad he doesn't lvie with his parents. >_< Indeed. ^^; Anyway, Dinnertime ^_^: mmm, sandwich...grahgrahgrah.. Scary :o I saw a pet food ad at the SPCA once day...it said: "Our first ingredient is the finest beef.....!" And then: "Mmm....first ingredient..."

Dunno....he's 'eating his food' ;) Cody will return when Luks has finished supper, I am thinking. ^^; * Cody-away is back (HAHA I AM BACK AND I AM SVEN T.

I'm sure I'd mentioned it to you, more than once. ^^; It was a huge dilemma at the time, because yes, Popful is nifty. ^^ Nifty is good Hee. THe idea I had actually for my version of Zelda in that game is a less gruff/crass Popful ^^ * Rachel coughs. ^^ Ready? Like a bad porn scene! Yeah ^^ She sorta has that wit about her...kinda tomboyish ^^ ^^; ^_^ *** GMStoren changes topic to '-=- Chapter 39.1: Midnight Notions | Location: Booskaboo Isle | Time: Mana Holy Day, Night | 1230 Luc -=- Aloha: http://ddi.digital.net/~ekberg/SOM_roughs/' ~~ RESUME ~~ Wine and dine me, huh? * Cody grins, "^^ Ťooc: ...doh ť Rachel and Cody take advantage of their newfound prize, strolling over to the open air tropical cafe. ^_^ * Cody grins, "^^ Lead the way." * Rachel gazes around the cafe wistfully.. "Nice...romantic..." ^^ A few waitresses walk around serving customers, with flowers in their hair, and a swing in their hips. The kitchen's roasting something that looks like a rather large fish on a barbecue. ^^ Upbeat too... Ť I think the animatronic hula-dancing Elvises really gave it that final touch... ť Ť lol ť <> Ťooc: Evil! ^^ ť Ť ^_^ ť * Rachel wanders to a table, sitting down and motioning for Cody to do the same.. "Your seat, monsieur..." Why thank you, Madmioselle. ^^ * Cody sits down with a smile. [Waitress] *passes the table* Oh aren't you two so cute! What can I get you? I'm new to the area...is there anything you would recommend, miss? * Rachel allows Cody to talk, blushing faintly at the compliment. ^^; *** Radien (radien@c339940-a.eugene1.or.home.com) Quit (Pong Timein) [Waitress] Well, there's not a big variety here if you don't like seafood... but we can make it a zillion different ways. ^_^ Willis had a big catch today... how about some Aloha Fried Iffish? Or maybe Shellders on a half shell? <<*chokes*>> Ťooc: O_O ť [Waitress] There's also the Undine Special Platter with a little bit of everything if you can't decide? * Rachel looks to Cody curiously. ^^ Hmm...Fried Iffish sounds good to me. How about you, Rachel? I can always get the platter and we can split it. :) We should make use of the two free tickets....let's get the Fried Iffish... and a bottle of your best wine. ^^ [Waitress] Ooh... I see... heehee. Coming right up! She departs the table for the counter, to put in the order. ^^ Wine huh? As I thought, you have inpeccable taste! * Rachel chuckles a little and reaches out to fiddle with a fork, eyeing Cody warmly. "You have no idea. Besides, I figure we should get a drink we'd both enjoy... " <<...heh!>> I don't really drink much...once I had mead...too heavy for my taste. :) It's not long before she returns with a colorful plate or two on her head meant for another table most likely, but she sets a red bottle upon the table, along with two glasses. "This is really special one here... they say it's made from vinyeards on the Lost Continent... on the house for you." * Rachel looks up and smiles. "Thank you." Wow, thanks very much. * Cody smiles at Rachel warmly, with a wink, "Shall I pour?" Ťooc: ...Hahah! The plot to get us roaring drunk for sex is about to be unleashed! ť * Rachel blinks and adopts a demure look, nodding slightly. "Go right ahead, stud...." She smiles, and sways over to another table or two, and another waitress ends up bringing over the platters of the iffish for you. It's done up in a very colorful pineapple trim that almost makes you want to admire it as art before you eat it. ^^ * Cody smiles and reaches for the bottle, filling Rachel's glass with the ruby liquid, before pouring some for himself. * Rachel blinks at the food and her stomach growls almost angrily, betraying her hunger. She blushes and runs a fingertip along the edge of her glass. "Wow..." I've never seen food look so good... <> * Rachel grins a little and raises her glass. "A toast! To us, may we see brighter days ahead but keep each other safe and protected during the bad ones..." * Cody picks up his glass and raises it, touching Rachel's own glass with a clink, "A worthy toast! ^^" * Rachel takes a long sip from the glass, purring and licking her lips afterwards... "Oh wow...." * Cody takes a sip of the wine, staring at Rachel a bit. <<*snorts*>> . o O ( ...She looks so pretty under the light like that... ) Ťooc: ^^ ť <> Ť ^_^ ť * Cody continues to stare quietly. ^^ * Rachel breathes deeply and looks up, catching Cody's eyes and smiling wryly.. "What, do I have sand on my hair or something...?" * Cody snaps to reality, blinking a bit, a small blush forming on his cheeks, "Ah..no...just thinking on how beautiful you look is all..." * Rachel looks surprised and then blushes brightly, stuttering almost... "Ah.....uh....thank you...." You're welcome... * Rachel clears her throat and looks down at her food, gingerly trying to start eating but feeling decidely warm now. ^^ * Cody smiles and also eats, although not quite as gingerly as Rachel. <> It's quite good, and a little spicy.... certainly a welcome change from normal Inn food. ^^ * Rachel makes a low noise of pleasure. "Gods, this is good... much better than that slop they serve in the Inns...." Ť Cody's Mom] It's not slop.. ;_; ť <> * Cody decides not to comment that his Mom makes inn slop, "Yeah, it is really good..." <> * Rachel looks to Cody, nibbling on a piece of Iffish idly...she swallows and rests her chin in her palm, gazing at him.. "....are you enoying yourself...?" Very much so...And you? ^^ Because if for any reason you're not, we're going to have to change that. :) * Rachel chuckles softly... "I'm enjoying being with you above all else...but yeah, I'm enjoying myself..." That's wonderful! * Cody 's wine glass is just about empty, for your information ^^ <> Ť putting it that way is so cute ;) ť * Rachel arches a slender eyebrow, her glass still mostly full... "....Cody?" Ťooc: I just had a See's SUCKER HYPER :O ť Yeah? Ť I'm reminding you this is GOOD wine. if Cody's not a drinker it would hit him a tad. ^^ ť Truth now. Have you ever drank wine before? ^_- ...Er...Hehe...uh...no? ^^ * Rachel shakes her head and laughs a little, taking a long drink from her glass, almost emptying it....she reaches out to offer Cody more wine. "Guess we're going to have to teach you how to drink it right, huh?" ;) Ť oh boy.. ^^ ť <> But...I dunno...I don't want to make a fool of myself...^^;; Hey, don't worry....normal people night, remember? Just let go....I'll make sure you're okay. ^_- * Cody nods, "I trust you..." Ť need to brb a sec ^^ ť Ťooc: Dude :D Cody's like buzzed, it seems :o ť * Rachel nods as well and slides her chair closer to Cody's, taking his hand and helping him hold the wine glass.... "Now...the secret is to take slow but deep sips....you can't drink it too fast because you won't savor the taste..." Okay...slow...deep sips. Got it. * Rachel runs a finger down Cody's knuckles as she releases his hand.... she stays close. "Go on....try it and tell me what you think it tastes like.." ^^ * Cody closes his eyes and takes a slow, deep sip, "Mmm...tastes rich...deep...a bit earthy...really nice." * Rachel nods slightly, reaching out to take Cody's glass from him, taking a sip herself...she sighs happily at the taste.. "Yeah....that's the way you can tell if it's a good wine or not...it's rich and deep...makes your mouth water...." Anything else I should know? :) Mmhmm.... a good wine also means a strong wine.... so....if you're looking to come back sober, choose something lighter and less old.... ^_- As Rachel and Cody enjoy their wine, they notice a small blonde girl come into the cafe with a basketful of flowers, presumably from the shop you saw on your way here. She has a few wreaths around her neck, and one in her hair. ^^ Oh...is that why I feel a little lightheaded now? ^^; * Rachel looks up and chuckles lowly to Cody.. "It could be...or it could just be my overwhelming presence?" Probably a bit of both... :) * Cody leans over and kisses Rachel lightly on the lips. Ťooc: Oh yeah! I'm romantic now! I gotta eat See's Cinnamon suckser more often ť Ťooc: Sorry ^^; Trying to think of an opening ť * Rachel 's attention is stolen from the new person by Cody kissing her....she tangles a hand in his hair and returns the kiss before drawing away, gently tucking some of his hair behind his ear. "....wow. It tastes even better when on the lips of someone you love..." The waitress notices them kissing and smiles from the counter. ^_^ * Cody doesn't say anything, he just smiles warmly. ^^ * Flower_Seller notices the two lovebirds and walks over to them, smiling ^_^ Ťooc: Lotsa ^^'s today.
