He looks at her as she asks him why he's still holding the void. He forces himself to let go of the void before he replied. "Just memories, its nothing I can't handle, I just need to get out more...maybe find a bar that's a little more generous with their drinks." He starts to smile then it quickly disappears as though it was never there. He looks at her, feeling her exhaustion through the bond he silently vows to himself not to sleep until she sleeps.

"Why do you look as though I'm about to scream at you?" She asked. "You did as you thought was right and nothing really seems to be your fault. You have not failed me Yurin, not even close. Now we know there is a Forsaken that needs dealing with." She spoke kindly as she moved to sit next to him on the bed. "You are a wonderful Warder Yurin and you should be proud of yourself. We may have a desperate situation at hands but atleast I know you will be right there next to me."

alina sedai "well, i hope thats what it does, if it dosnt work, then...well, the Forsaken will be down our throuts" She looked up at him and smiled. "okay i dont mind wearing it." she blushed when he looked at her, her yellow eyes, in great contrast to her dark brown hair, which fell down well below her knees when not up, were shining with unshead tears. these tears though, were not of saddness, but of joy. Joy for the fact that her Dupre, her love, the only one who had ever cared for her, was whole. and not controled by some unknown force anymore. "i love you, you are so brave, im so happy that i have you!" she leaned her head agianst his chest so she could hear his heart beat, and sighed. so today did not turn out all that bad.

"Ok...if you're sure..." She pulled out a chair and more or less sank into the comfort of it. It would be a miracle if she even managed to stay on the horse when she left with Azalea. She felt a breeze and glanced at the window which was open; it was cold outside, but a weave of Fire was warming the air so the room stayed warm too. For a moment, she was reminded of Mayene, and her home. She missed it. Perhaps she would go visit.
She sat there a moment and she realized she could get one more thing out of the way before she left. "Okay Wolf...I promised that the three of us would talk about my constantly closing the bond and not letting you and Hawk do what you're supposed to...so both of you, talk. If at the end of this you've given me one good reason, I'll consider closing it less often."

Smiling as she so readily accepted what he considered unforgivable crimes, he thanked the Creator, yet again, that he had found such an incredible Aes Sedai to be bonded to.
"Truthfully, Clarissa, I expected you to be as disgusted by my actions as I was. I know I had to, but that does not help to make them any less distateful. Yes, though, there is a Forsaken loose in Tar Valon, somewhere. Perhaps even in the White Tower, itself. I should have followed and dealt with him, but I knew, in my heart, that it was more important to ensure that this Dorian did not receive the opportunity to accomplish whatever plans he had. I can't be sure, but I am fairly certain that, what with the distrust they show each other, he never revealed the extent of his plans to the others."
Yurin grinned at her final words, "Yes, of course! I will be by your side until the Dark One himself tears me from you and sends me to the arms of the Creator. Of that you need never fear. I made a vow to you that can never be broken."
The Fal Daran looked deep into her eyes as he spoke to her, his sincerity and the fire of his fervor plain for her to read, even if his emotions weren't entwined and nestled, openly for her to read with but a thought.
he Warder's brow suddenly furrowed as yet another disturbing thought niggled its way to the surface. He quickly explained the odd chain of dreams he had been having with the evil, beautiful woman in white.
Finishing his tale, he said,
"I know you're thinking that I am foolish. Normally, I would agree with you. I mean, really, who is frightenend by dreams anymore? This was no ordinary dream.."
Yurin's hands shook as they took to unlacing his shirt. "I don't know where this came from.. But I had this the first time I woke, and it was right after dreaming that she had touched me.."
, removing his shirt, displaying his muscular chest complete with faded battle scars crossing his well-built frame, the black, seared impression of the Dragon's Fang stood in sharp contrast.
"She said I was marked.. That I was his."
Mog's eyes blazed, even as fear shot through the bond in never-before-felt amounts, "I will never be his. I have pledged my life to you and every action in my life to fighting that corruption. He can't make me be his without my compliance, can he?"
Fear truly showed, for the first time since she had known him, "I mean, can one be forced? Dorian kept talking about turning me. Why were they so certain, Clarissa? Can it be done?"
Yurin's mind told him it was true, that it could be done, somehow, but he refused to accept it. He was from the Borderlands, they fought Sightblinder with every thought, every generation, every chance they had, choice they made. He fought the Dark One and his minions as easily as drawing breath. He had been taught that, so long as one fought against him, that you were safely cradled in the Creator's hand. That regardless what they could do to you, they couldn't make you serve, so long as you fought. He hoped it was true, prayed it was true. He looked to his comfort, his Aes Sedai, for the verification of his desire. It couldn't be possible, couldn't! Could it?

If at the end of this you've given me one good reason, I'll consider closing it less often." He looks at her for a moment before finially saying something. "Mercury, as much as you don't want to ever take when ever you go out on an adventure, it kinda makes us useless, and there for no reason to be here. Now don't get me wrong I'll be by your side for ever if it would be possible, you have my heart and my life in your hand, but if you can't find a use for them, I will take my life into my own hands, but my heart will always go out to you. I know that if I don't go out on your next adventure I will find my own. Only my adventure will probably last alot longer than yours, I grew up in war, I'm made for it its all I'v ever known. But I can't take it anymore always being shut out.

Clarissa gasped at he mark on his chest. "That does not look like it could have come from a dream. She said softly. "I'm sorry to say it is possible but it would be very hard for them. But it still could happen. We need to find this Forsaken before they have time to plan anything."
She stood and walked in front of Yurin her face serious. "Promise me one thing before we do anything." She commanded. "Promise me that whenever there is something dangerous you have to do tell me don't just rush off. Don't be afraid of putting me in danger with you. I have been there before. We can do much better as a team than apart. I promise not to get myself killed. I just don't want you killed either. You gave me such a scare when you went to Shayul Gull(sp?) and I don't want to go through that again. You are already the best Warder I've ever had and I don't want to lose you." Anyone could see by her face ahe meant every word she said.

Mercury sighed. "Well yes...but you know you always have the freedom to do what you want, and go where you please. Sitting behind a desk doesn't offer for much adventure...and most of what ends up happening to me isn't really expected...no decent person would walk in to talk with an Accepted would actually expect ending up blocked from the Source and fighting a Forsaken...or getting kidnapped...or knocked unconcious and losing memory...or any of it...
Even if I did start letting both of you in more, I'd still most likely be sitting behind a desk. But just so you know Wolf, you can always go anywhere you like. Like you said, your life is still yours...the same applies to Hawk..speaking of...so what's your opinion Hawk? I know it annoys you as much as it annoys Wolf so be honest.."
It suddenly occured to Mercury that this wasn't coming from her alone. "Wait...You're not too different I might add. There have been times when you've blocked me out and we've had to come hunt you down. And the things you ended up in were much worse than anything I ever got into!! You went and suffered alone. BOTH of you." She frowned and crossed her arms at them. "I don't need to remind you that as much as both of you are here to help me, I'm here to help and be with you as well!"
She realized her voice had slightly escalated around the middle of the comments but didn't bother fixing it. The bond was-for the sake of this argument-open. They would know the hidden thoughts behind everything, even if the three of them didn't realize it at first.

On her command, Yurin immediately dropped to his right knee, right fist on the floor, left hand resting on Heron-marked sword hilt.
"By my hope of Salvation and Rebirth, I so swear, Amyrlin.", looking up into her eyes, from the position of obedience, he spoke sincerely, "I have never intentionally gone on any of the misadventures I seem to have on a fairly regular basis. The only reason I left so abruptly after the boy was due to the lack of possible planning. Had I hesitated, I never would have been able to get there in time to.. Well, at the time, I thought to save him.", His face colored in obvious embarassment at his easy entrapment.
As she named him the best Warder she had ever had, a look of startled bewilderment crossed his face before he quickly slid it back into his mind, trying not to gape at her openly. With all the foolishnesses he seemed to get himself into she thought so much of him? He was very happy and proud of her praise of him, he had thought she was regreting saddling herself with one so prone to accidental adventures.
"I am most pleased that I have been able to serve you. I hope that we shall be able to continue. Know, though, in the event that the danger is too great and one of us shall lose our life, it shall be me. That is my duty, and my honor. I can think of no greater disgrace than for a Warder to keep his life while his Aes Sedai loses hers. Please promise me, in such an event, that you will allow me to complete my obligations if it ever comes to such. My duty is, and shall ever be, so long as breath is held in my body, to be there when you need me, and to lose my life in defense of yours should the need arise."
His eyes held hers, magnetically, he would not release her gaze until she agreed to his terms. The importance that this was realized and accepted by both was obvious and great, as evinced by the sincerity and fire blazing in his eyes, setting his red hair off in contrast. He awaited her response with bated breath.
((Meh, crappy post, but I was pressed for time. Forgive me. I will do better in my next post.))

"I know you don't go out much and most of your time is still behind a desk but just when you do go we'd both like to be there with you." Realizing she is right about him closing off the bond at times when he thought it would be best for her not to feel his pain. "Ok Merc, I'll swear to keep the bond always open if you swear it to."

((Mog you posts are never bad! xd ))
Clarissa pulled Yurin up gently so he stood next to her their eyes still locked together. She smiled as he promised and then she spoke. "I swear by my hope of Salvation and Rebirth I will allow you to do what you must to save me if one of us must lose our lives, but I also swear I will do everything I can without putting the Tower at stake to keep that from being needed."
((Uggh that was short but I gotta go to sleep so it will have to do.))

((Blushes, embarassed. redface Thank you Clarissa, I appreciate the compliment.. It isn't true, but I do appreciate the praise. Everyone writes a bad post, at least, once in a while.))
Yurin inclined his head in respect and acquiescence at her bold statement. As he opened his eyes he realized, with a start followed by a flurry of activity, that he was still not wearing a shirt. His many scars were there, on display, for anyone to look at. They embarassed him. He had come by them all honestly, in service to the Lord Dragon, the Amyrlin, and in fighting the Dark One in all his myriad forms. Still it irked him that he was thusly marked, especially the scar across his neck. He had misjudged a slashing blade by a hairsbreadth. I thad been enough and served as a lifelong reminder that one never knew as much as they thought they did.
As he got redressed, his face a deep red, almost matching his hair, he tried to distract her from the sight of him clothing himself. It never occurred to him that every emotion he felt was being broadcast directly to her. Being bonded was still a fairly new concept to him, he didn't even think to block it.
"Moth-err, Clarissa, I would expect no less than that from you. Had I felt that you would either abuse my presence and aid, or simply throw me into danger without a care, I would never have offered my assistance, my companionship, my life, to you, and only you."
He took her hand in his, kissing her Great Serpent ring, showing his respect, his obedience, his loyalty, and his care, all with but a single small gesture. His grasp lingered around her hand as he spoke with her, absent-mindedly fingering her ring.
"I am glad that we ended up together, Clarissa. I'm amazed that such a wide array of possibilities brought us together. Of all the Asha'Man, and all the Aes Sedai, we somehow ended up together, and I couldn't be happier. Thank you for everything, Clarissa. It means the world to me."
