After playing with the several Jacuzzi tub functions in Ross's room, Iru decided that it was about time to find the shiny pretty boy. The only places that she thought to look were the bar and the pool. There was no sign of him in the bar. If he's not at the pool then I'll just hang out there anyway. She decided as she went back to their room to change into a swim suit. Of course, it would be a two piece bikini in black, for that color looked good on her. Of course, any bikini looked good on a girl with Iru's body type. Using a towel to cover herself, Iru made her way to the pool.
"Lucky." She immediately noticed Ross because of his shiny. "Hey I've been looking for you." She called out as she approached him. She had yet to remove the towel, mainly because she hadn't thought about it.

Rhoslyn lazily rolled onto his side to face Iru, giving her a half-wave before yawning and rubbing the side of his jaw. It seemed he'd fallen asleep at the poolside, and they yawn a few seconds later only confirmed it.
"Mmh.. been here for a while. Sup, lovely?"
He looked around for his drink, then after a few seconds of blinking and looking around with broad neck movements, sighed and gave up.

"Hm, well I had been looking at stuff in the room for a while." Iru saw Ross's drink on the floor, so she picked it up. What else could he have been looking for? "Anyway, I came to look for you and if I couldn't find you I was going to go for a swim." She handed the glass to Ross before removing the towel. "Did you have a nice nap?" She asked as she put the towel on the chair next to his.

He gave her a lazy grin and took a drink before answering.
"I did. I'm just... running low on energy these days. Between the work I did for this tournament and all of the assorted background and whatnot spells, the whole... complicating the family tree thing, and I'm just pooped."
He took another drink, then another, and staggered to his feet, stretching out a bit. Unsurprisingly, his glamour was being out to good use as makeshift clothing, and his tattoos seemed to be moving just a little bit and to be kinda faded as opposed to their normal, vibrant colors.
"Mmmh... mmh. I'm getting old," Rhoslyn grumbled.

Iru stepped behind him and gave his shoulders a little massage. "Well I think you're past the point of being old considering your age. " She joked with a grin. "You just need to get some sleep and you'll feel much better." She didn't know much about the tournament itself, but it couldn't have been very fun to manage.

She'd feel some wicked knots, unsurprisingly.
"Ancient, then. Honestly, at this point, I could secretly have grandchildren... that I've outlived. Of course, I don't think I do..." he mused, his grin growing bigger as he relaxed his tense muscles. Somewhere, sitting in some rather convenient plot area, Rhoslyn's mostly-human redheaded grandkids were sitting around a movie theater, high as ******** and munching on popcorn. He had absolutely no idea of this family, but still, it was worth noting.
"And... I could sleep for a week. I've done it before, y'know. Though it's effective to say my well is limitless, there's only so much magic and sex I can throw around before it starts being a chore to simply exist in this strange little 3-D world."
He sorta looked like he was gonna say more, but then her thumb hit a knot hard and Rhoslyn just moan/sighed and closed his eyes.

His back felt like it did when she gave him a massage when they first met. "Holy crap. How can you even move?" Iru shook her head as her fingers did their thing. Each finger found a knot to press into as she spoke. "Well if you plan to sleep for a week then let me know. I wouldn't want to go and wake you up then get my head bitten off. I don't imagine you would be so cute when cranky." Oh, a big knot. Pop!

"Maybe next month. I just need to, like... not cast as much for the next few days. Which is really inconvenient, since I wanna track down that guy who killed the other one and harvest a limb for wasting my damn time... grr."
He'd go silent again, aside from the noises that went along with either really good sex or a really good massage. After a few more minutes, Rhoslyn'd take another drink, then idly toss the glass to the side and awkwardly TK-move it to be landing where it wouldn't break. It jerked and spasm'd as it moved, unsurprisingly.
"Mmm...ah. So what'dja find on our room, babes?"
He sorta wanted to sit down. Or maybe just lay down, but this was just fine. Massages were always good.

"That guy who looked high?" The name slipped her mind for the time being. "Well, he was a participant right? Just wait until his fight then you won't have to track him down." She pressed her thumb into his shoulder blade. "Until then, just relax."
She watched the glass as it sort of floated down to the ground. "Well, the bathtub has a jacuzzi function and the bed has a sort of vibrating massage button. Nothing else of interest." She let go of him. "Want to sit down?" She didn't feel like standing there for long.

"Er... they all finished. Technically... yeah, you have no idea how many ********' spells it took to make sure that all of these time paradoxes don't spawn a few clock-roaches."
He waved his hand and took a few quick strides to a handy plastic lounge chair, then settled down to lay on his belly, facing the pool.
"And then, since there's just not enough high-level mages sitting around, the group of us all have to work together to provide the sheer power for some of the more complicated... bleh. Just... well, basically, that guy who was snogging the blondie at the ball? Yeah, his stupid a** killed his opponent... and then they had to revive him and then it turned out ******** had planned it in advance and I'm going to cut off one of his balls if I get the chance."
Rhoslyn sounded grumpy as ******** with that, and sighed, idly making ripples in the pool by bouncing his fingers up and down. He could still feel the steady trickling drain of it, but better to be a bit more exhausted than to risk HURRZURKER'ing or just going all I EATED UR REALITY LOL mode.

His eyes narrowed and his head tilted back a bit. He sent her a questioning, amused smirk as he gazed down his nose at the white mage. Seriously? So tough. "He'd be dead right now if he tried." The demon-man folded his arms across his chest as the floors continued to ding away after the breif interuption in travel. He followed the numbers. He didn't even need to be here. Sey wasn't in any trouble- it was just two little kids. What were they to him? Sey "So what? Did you learn something about why those innocent kids are being treated as something more fearful then a demon like you?" ... "I found you so that I could help- not just you, but those two children you're so fond of as well. I'm afraid Raulin won't remain passive for long..." He cast her a suspicious glance, noting the formal wear and the total lack of the two children. "...how did they enjoy the ball?" He tried not to sound too sarcastic.

"Wait so is there already a winner? Or did that guy just lose?" Iru asked with a tilt of her head. She had been enjoying her vacation, but she hadn't been paying attention to the actual fighting.
She followed him to the chair and sat on the chair next to his. Now she could really work those knots out. It would be easier with him on his belly like that.
"Huh...Didn't know you guys could revive people too. No wonder you're almost dead on your feet." She pressed her wrist down into one of the knots to flatten it out.
"So do you think you'll have to do any more spells in the near future?" She moved to his lower back to work out some of the stiffness there.

"The paradox... well, basically, even if you win the fight, you may not win the round. So no, ******** got DQ'ed, and his opponent... well, I think he's moving onto the next round. There's been - there is being - some sort of talk about how we handle the no-shows and the slows, but I don't properly know yet because, ********' time paradox."
He chuckled, and felt his head starting to hurt like it always did when he was trying to deal with any situation that ******** time this much. Honestly, it was a good thing he never really had gotten dependent on the same reality others did; most of the training of Retconjuration just came from trying to make your head not explode from trying to keep track of everything.
"White mages can, but like, I had very little to do with that. I'm sure I contributed something to it, since we all did a lot of arcane magical hooha- ahh.. oh. Yeah, right there, hard," Rhoslyn breathed, back arching a little as his fingers tightened around the leg of the chair. The pool stopped rippling and shifting so much, with his attention no longer on it.
"Mmmh...no, I had nothing to do directly with the whole... bringing people back to life thing. Wide though my arsenal may be... I do not have Lazarus powers. If it were me doing it, the guy would... be... a decent zombie, but basically walking... undead."
It was getting sort of hard to speak properly as she dug into all of his tension, and he pretty much didn't hear the last question at all over the noise, the damn-that's-relieving feeling, and the whole "fukken tired" thing.

Liquid Lights "I found you so that I could help- not just you, but those two children you're so fond of as well. I'm afraid Raulin won't remain passive for long..." He cast her a suspicious glance, noting the formal wear and the total lack of the two children. "...how did they enjoy the ball?" He tried not to sound too sarcastic. Shhhh-click The stubborn set of her shoulders relaxed just slightly as he spoke, eyes flicking to the doors as they closed and the lift began moving upwards once more. She was relieved for many reasons - that he wasn't here to fight her, that Raulin hadn't hired him, that she wouldn't have to use the meager pole arm skills he'd taught her against him - relieved, but unwilling to let it show. She didn't want him to think that she was actually okay with not seeing him for months at a time. "Ha, ha." Unlike Stryphe, Sey didn't try to hide her sarcasm at all. "I left them at a safe place for the night. Though they'll be coming here soon; the both of them wanted to watch a match and I'd received tickets from my date." Her explanation was purposefully vague, the white mage keeping in mind the fact that the man before her was once a terrible, evil being that she wouldn't have been surprised to see killing a pair of children. Not before her deity had humbled him and made him mortal at least. She trusted him still though - she couldn't help it. But she could still be cautious. "You're here to help." She had to repeat the words, her head shaking with incredulity as she looked back to his green eyes. "Just what do you think Raulin would do?"

Iru listened to Ross's explanation without talking much. She never totally understood the whole paradox deal other than the fact that it screwed with time and apparently took up a lot of power.
White mages? Well, she more or less knew what those were from playing Final Fantasy games. They were damn useful when you get them healing magic. She put a little extra pressure on the spot he indicated. She used her knuckle to really get down into that spot. "You sound like you're having sex." She chucked.
