"Apparently, I ruled the roost around here. It's like back at your own manor where there was the look of you everywhere and none of me, but I was there all the same." She stopped her strides and watched him a moment. "I'm not playing with it. I'm merely spending time with it and you need a break from it." Nope, didn't like the sword at all really. But now she came to sit on the edge of the bed beside him. "Well...how do you propose we do that. I mean...we can't just walk up to anyone and ask 'hey, how mean is Piper?', and I'm going to have enough trouble acting vicious in the first place. As you said, I just don't have it in me." Piper sighed and rested her hands on her knees...half out of keeping one of them from gripping to the sword at her side. Then a look to him with half a smile in it. "Don't go scheming yet love...you're supposed to be freeing slaves first." She tapped her fingers on her knees a moment. "Whoever it is we're working with is going to nail us on behavior though if we, or rather I, don't get it together soon." Another one of those bordering self consciousness looks from her. "I don't like the way my boots fit..." Proverbial killer boots she stepped into from simply tripping.

"I can help you be ruthlessly cold. that's easy. it's figuring out exactly how bd you were. perhaps there are some record of buiness trasnactions ro the like, somethign that was written by you that gives a hint of how you were. Or you can be pissy, adn I can be overbearing, make it look like I took you down a notch or two, then we can explain it that I finally got sick of how you were acting and brought you down and took your place?"
He looked over at her, handing her the other cinnamon stick.
"and this third party...maybe we'll need to get rid of them if we find them. Or reveal how thigns are, let them give us the info we need and then all we have to do is keep them quiet."

"Could you stand seeing me as such Malik? Take it from me, someone can say someone else is ruthlessly cold as you put it, but some people can't see that. Like how I see you." She shrugged. "I guess we'll just be winging this until we get something concrete. Search this place top to bottom if we have to." Then a look to him with triple colored eyes as he offered up the cinnamon stick that had earlier been his bargaining tool. She took it with a smile and chewed on it a moment, leaning over to rest her head on Malik's shoulder lightly. "I still want to know how we ever trusted someone else to be let in on our lives. But I'll leave that negotiation up to you. Worse comes to worse you can pull a collar choke for some convincing bruises to play the knocked me down a notch game." Hated saying that too.

"Trust me my father was a lot worse than even me. SO I coudl handle it. I'd probably have more trouble playing subserviance than dealing with you being ruthless. But your right. we need to find out more and we'lll probably have to wing this until we know for sure how things are here. we need to know any allies we have and any enemies, a lay of teh land if you would. and I'll handle the third wheel. and if needed, I'll get rid of them, harshly if I have to."

"I could ask Serino to go check out this place. He could cover it the fastest after all. And I could go with him...that would at least put me out of sight for a while if need be." Yeah smart idea. Send two who were still rather anxious underground. Piper sighed and pulled at her collar once more. "Why did I have to be the mean one...well meaner one." Then a look down to Malvolence out of the corner of her eye. That could help, despite her hate of it. "I need to be ruthless...I can do that, with a little help of course." So saying she gripped a hand to the sword's hilt, a slight spasm when it dug in searching for blood. Nothing new, she'd done this before. "You do what you need to do and I'll try to keep from blowing our cover."

He watched as she gripped Malvolence and shook his head lightly. well she woudl have to learn to handle it then. Malvolence was not a sword to take lightly.
"We have a map, so we know some of the layout of the land. I was mostly reffering to the political landscape. who's in charge, why there is a third memeber to our group, what reasons we have for freeing those others other than that they are elves and dwarves. if we have allies, who they are. but I'll see what I can dig up, and we'll get things straightened out. shouldn't be too terribly hard. and I hoep you know what your doing with that. It's a powerful weapon."
A gesture to Malvolence's glowing blade.

A look to it as well. "Well just don't come after me with intent to kill to get it from me. We've had our share of fights over this thing." Then she kicked her legs slightly in Piper like fashion. "I'm starting to wonder why we haven't won yet. Seems like this thing has been going on for a while...whatever it is we're doing exactly. And we're pretty affective at things once we actually get to doing them. Perhaps our third party is for some reason holding us back. And if I'm so mean why would I let you help elves? This all makes no sense or an odd sort of warped sense." She pulled her hand from the sword with a casual flick of her hand that flung some blood to the floor before she scooted back on the mattress and flopped back. "What a day." A grab at her collar. "Just choke me now..." Was probably already going to have nightmares and whispers in her head from the damn sword.

"Well judging from the map. seems this Deepwater place effectively rules a good portion of the known world. So odds are we aren't able to just muscle our way through. tactical strikes are best, and that makes things take longer. but with the Conduit sent over, the natural bad luck nad wickedness that pours form the void should shake things up."
He ran his hand up and down her thigh lightly, giving it a little pat looking over at her with a grin.
"Just choke you now, eh? well you got the gauntlet, dear piper."

A slight smile at his little affectionate petting of sorts. Then a laugh as she let go of her collar, hand with the gauntlet being held up for her to look at. "I thought this one didn't work on me?" She'd never seen him use it in threat of or to her before. But she switched up positions, sitting on her knees now behind him, arms draped over his shoulders as she leaned against his back and looked over his shoulder. "Either our location isn't known, there is no effective Deepwater army of sorts, we're really good at what we do, or Mr. third party is making this way too easy. I mean come on...really. Two elves taking on an empire like Deepwater. Frankly I'd like to know how you tamed a griffin as well. Or maybe I did it...dunno, collar design was different but close. Or she's not even ours."

His hands moved up to hers, holding them lightly and grinning.
"that's the master guantlet. works on everybodies collar. As for Ashlyn..I would guess you tamed her. a wood elf has a far better knowledge on it than a dark elf. As to how we've managed not to get bombarded..take a look. according to our map, there's another large country if you would much closer. thier probably after them. or trying to work around them if they are another hostile country to them. We've got a pretty nice little outof the way setup here. very good for sneak attacks."
The he leaned hsi head back and kissed her gently, and chuckled.
"But this third party we need to find out about. wonder if they are a woman lover of yours?"

A raised eyebrow at him as he instigated things as he usually did. "Me? Have another lover besides you...hardley. I believe that even another version of me, no matter how ruthless, would still suffer fatigue from you." A wink and a kiss from her...well of course she had to instigate right back, that was the game. "Hm, I wonder if the me here has messed up ears too..." But then she nuzzled his neck before leaning over him more and grabbing hold of the map herself on one edge. "Didn't that slave mention some beings of elvish decent called Purians taking the blame for us? Perhaps that's just why." Eyes scanned the map a little bit more as the hand with the gauntlet was idly playing with one of Malik's ears. "Hm, you know...there's not many landmarks on this map at all...only five places are even really marked."

"More than likely, this being underground, not too many places are explored. humans especially don't explore much in places like this, they have some godforsaken natural fear of the dark or something that really limits them. they aren't blessed with the infravision our people are."
his ears twitched lightly as she played with them.
"I'd guess that they are. or someone woudl have noticed somethign like that. and you know you love suffering fatigue."
A chuckle at that.
"Or maybe it's another lover for me. who knows. but we need to figure something out here. though I coudl say I wouldn't find wearing you out a bit right now."
He always got that way when she played with his ears. she was the only one that even would have dared to touch him, and she was playing with that particularly sensative part of him.

"Maybe they're like me and just don't like being underground and get claustrophobic. Have to give them the benefit of the doubt now don't I?" Then a quirk of her eyebrow. "Hm...I shouldn't talk like that in this place. Might get me some strange looks." Then a hug and nuzzle to him. "Not if I wore my bandana all the time. And yes, yes I do love suffering fatigue from you." Then her hands snaked to his neck. gripping and applying pressure, both squeezing in a manual strangulation type move. "But remember Malik, I don't share at all. So if you do have another, I will swiftly end that, now won't I? Besides, why would I let that happen in the first place...unless you got boring or unsatisfying. And that's yet to happen in my opinion." Then she let go of him, no threat in the motion to begin with, just something she did. Probably symbolic of a collar when she really thought about it. A tug at his ear with a wicked little smile. "Really now? Wouldn't that be a little rude if our said wanted third party showed up?" A kiss to his jaw. "Besides...I should still be mad at you for withholding cinnamon sticks. Speaking of which." Free hand went to raiding his pockets for said cinnamon.

No more cinnamon in the pockets, though he let her search to her heart's content.
"True. I don't need another lover when I got you. probably just have to run her through or something. But as for being rude...no such thing for us. we are the masters here. what we want to do or what we say goes. and that coudl be, but I bet these people have been down here for quite sometime."
A grin at her, kissing her on the cheek whie she went thru his pockets, and leanign back abit agaisnt her, with her rumaging in his pants he was counting seconds till she found something else and became either flustered or a bit more agressive.

Oh she caught his game and accordingly to teasing him, seeming to loose interest in his pockets or what could possibly be contained at all. He was too easy to read for her. Another rather harsh tug to his ear. "Believe me...I will find out where you are hiding those things if I have to shred every piece of your clothing, and then ransack everything that you own. And don't put it beyond me to do whatever I can to get them." Then a smirk and a n** at his other ear. "Correction, I'm the ruler here, the room says that much. And I have to play the part. Now now...what to do with you to wait out my time..." She could think of several things right off the bat. A change in position to find her straddling him now. "The things I could both give you out of sheer enjoyment for it, or deny at the same time in a form of punishment. Decisions, decisions."
