What were those kids doing? It was entirely too quiet up there. Usually there was a multitude of giggling and squealing and what not going on. Ah yes her mother paranoia stepping into play, every weary of what those boys were doing and how they could possibly hurt themselves. Though these days she was trying to not be so smothering...after all they had to make mistakes and find out for themselves, she couldn't coddle forever. But still...quiet. And Malik wasn't with them, so who knew what they had going on in thier heads.
"Good idea." And thus the problem of Nym was solved, and then another problem arose. What to do first with thier new plaything. He looked at his friend, who had his pirate garb, and then back at the chest full of goodies, then back Zykariel. Giving a smile he ran over to the trunk that they kept all thier play clothing in and put on his own pirate parenphinalia. Coming back to his friend, with a bag in hand as well. "Arrh...me thinks there be treasure to bury." Or hide in couch and chair cushions more pointedly, seeing as they couldn't go outside alone.
And stop with a raised eyebrow he did, waiting for her to speak her mind. "Adult meal?" Thanks the gods, he was so sick of child food. Anything that could be eaten without silverware was quickly loosing his favor these days, not to mention that there were days when Zykariel went of a particular food binge and wouldn't eat anything else for that particular meal...and Sevilin didn't have the heart to send him to bed without dinner.
A look to his wine in hand, and then back to her. "Stay out of the kitchen...right." And watched her go off, only to be left standing there, sipping at his drink some. And she got another raised eyebrow when seh came back, dressed up all fancy and what not. Before of course being led to the kitchen which was set with a more mature setting. Though he only gave her a lopsided grin at the smell and sight of steak. Well that was his favorite wasn't it? "What's the occassion?"

Zykariel grinned at Malikhai as he clued into what the blue elf was telling him. "Aye I think ye be right in yer thinkin' me fine pirate friend." Thus he walked over to the chest and began scooping handfulls of gems and whatnot into the bag. "But we have to make sure no one else will ever find. This be our loot, our bounty and we'll slice off the fingers of anyone who lays a hand on it." An emphatic nod to that before he giggled. Not really but it was fun to say.
Skipping out of the room after filling the bag, he motioned Malikhai to follow. "We'll leave some of it here for us to use now and bury the rest. But where? Arr..me thinks we need to row. Take to the sea and find us an island beach."
She took her seat at the table and draped her napkin over her lap then began systematically slicing up her steak. "I felt like spoiling you. I know how irritated you've been getting with the constant stream of chicken, hot dogs and other foods that Zykariel adores and I thought you could use a break. Some time to be an adult complete with food, drink, and entertaining company. You'll have to tell me which one is better, the food or hte company, but I'm betting on the latter." A spread of her hands to indicate the table. "So dig in, I made it just the way you like it." She picked up her fork and indeed began to dig in, savoring the delicious flavor. Gods she was good.

"Duley appreciated I can assure you." Sitting down at the table and taking right to his food. Ah, silverware....it was a wonderful thing to have now wasn't it? Indeed. Dinner was very appreciated and it showed in his little upbeat of mood. "Oh it's a little from column a and a little from column, which is good. Better to have a mix than one over the other. "And you always make it just the way I like it." Thus a good half hour of quiet dinner between the two, mostly Zykariel did the conversation making at the table anyway.

She smiled at him, he really wans't cluing into everything else she had planned for this evening but that was just Sevilin. She was used to it by now. Dinner passed rather quickly, much the way she thought it would and then came thier nightly ritual of doing the dishes together. That was an intriguing time for her, a chance to mess with him and gauge his sexual awareness and openness to such activities. Little brushes here and there that she knew he wouldn't actually respond to but they were almost like subliminal messages, telling him she was in the mood and as soon as he took his self upstairs, she was going to jump him. "I'm not done spoiling you yet Sevilin. I've got all sorts of things in store for you." Said in teh promising yet not bad way that he used to associate with such phrases. "Upstairs." Then a pause. "Please?"

Oh yes, he did notice that she was a bit more closer than usual, acting in a particular way, gestures and looks seeming to entail things in her mind. And the house was clean...well cleaner than when he had left so that meant she had picked up some. When she cleaned, she was usually trying to get on his good side for something that she really really wanted. Zahara hated cleaning after all.
And yes, he played back a little, merely because he was in a rather positive mood and after three years of stable life style away from his old, he knew it was okay for him to mess back a little without fear of retaliation. Though his playing entailed moving objects via runes that she was trying to put away and what not.
Though as they were finishing up, she had to expand, spiking his intrigue. "Really now...you're in a rather giving mood aren't you?" Though a blink at her tone and then following words. Wait, was she going where he thought she was going? "Upstairs then, who can turn down a good spoiling after all, right?" Giving a 'let's go' gesture.

Anticipation could be a wonderful thing sometimes, now couldn't it? She led him down the hall and into his own bedroom in which she'd not only picked up spectacularly but also turned into her own private den of seduction. Lit candles flickered on almost ever available surface, aphrodisiacs perfumed the air and a huge bowl of melted chocolate sat just waiting on the nightstand, with two glasses and a chilled bottle of wine of course. The chocolate...well that was for their own special purposes.
She grinned at him adn moved around, easily divesting him of his shirt and then easily guiding him down to the bed. Easiest way to get this man to relax was to give him a massage. And that always led into something else, at least if she was the one initiating it did. Hiking her skirt she climbed up onto the bed, allowing him to get more comfortable. Straddling his back, she picked up a specialized oil that would relax him even more and began his massage. Moving her hands all along the obsidian skin stretched out before her. And that would lead on into other things and then Sevilin's prediction from earlier would indeed come true. they'd be locked away doing grown up things all night. Drinking rum and 'playing cards.'

Malik's patience with them lasted all of about thirty seconds..before they were dragged inside if they hadn't come in alreayd and out of hand simply dismissed.
"Make yourselves comfortable. if you need me specifically, let me know, if not, I have things to tend to."
which ment first finding Piper, and then checking on his son and making sure that the utter lack of sound was from him being good or him being asleep.

Piper at this time had been roped into playing with the boys, that's what happened when she went to check on that quiet...and it usually did happen that way. But she wasn't the only one, Keely had been roped back into the game too. Needless to say, the boys were thus having a blast with Keely who was thier wench and Piper who was thier oracle of sorts who told them all the nifty things, whom they captured from the opposing force who was more or less 'invisible'. Currently she was sitting on the 'ship' which was the couch and her hands were 'tied', showing her captivity...and she was trying no to laugh at the cute...at least she got to wear a hat.
Malikhai was standing guard more or less of his mother, trying to look all big and bad, and it just turned out rather nicely as well. "Arrrh...keep ye eyes peeled for the markers and for the evil captain who was out there somewhere. A look to his fellow captain. "Keep er steady, " and a look to mother, "ye best be praying your tongue be speaking the truth, or it's the plank for you."

Zykariel was on his knees at the other end of the couch 'driving' the ship while he kept an eye on Keely who was standing there. Zykariel liked to keep an eye on her since she usually got into trouble. He glanced back at the 'oracle' and nodded. "And there be sharks in the waters we'll be in." He lifted his hands up as though he had a spyglass in his hands and stared out towards the stairs.
"We're looking for the island of lost souls but the oracle said the island 'disappears.' Keep yer eyes peeled mates, I be thinking there be trickery among us..." Not to mention the evil pirate captain. "And you'll not be causin' me any trouble now, ye wench. Always gettin' taken by that evil captain." A shake of his head and he put away his spyglass. "We have our heading!" And thus they were off, Zykariel constantly scanning the horizon and keeping a hold on Keely's wrist whenever he thought she might try to move. He was not losing her this time, she was a pain to get back. "You. Oracle, how far out do we go?"
Sated, satisfied, sensually appeased, there were a million ways to describe her right now but she'd go with replete. Ah good sex, true she got it from Arthur as well, just a different kind but Sevilin was lovely as well. And he didn't ask annoying questions or attempt to talk to her about things she'd rather leave alone. Now however she was feeling the need to spill. Debating over whether or not she should ruin the peace between them, Zahara snuggled back deeper against Sevilin and sighed. She might as well go for it, it wasn't going to get off her mind until it was off her chest."Sevilin, do you know what mela means?"

Malik was outside the nursery, and he heard the talk and grinned lightly...and walked away, rustling through some older clothes and taking a look...okay. sash, tripointed hat, and picking up one of his walking canes to use as a sword...then a touch on Malvolence...which got him the illusionist woman, who raised a brow at his attire, before being given her instructions. she smirked, but it was an interesting challenge to her abilities. so she went to do her work, while the conjuror appeared next, and nodded lightly. places...and here comes the fun.
the nursery changed. literally. Ocean as far as the eye could see. cloudy skies and the couch became a ship, winds billowing her sails. all an effective illusion, off course. a spyglass appeared in Zykariel's hand.
then there was the sound of cannonfire. and a might ship formed out of the horizon, Malik standing at the bow.
"Ye'll take the dead man's chest o'er my dead body!"

"Remember, no lies now." Lightly tapping his little wooden sword to her shoulder in indication that she wouldn't be happy if she told a lie to them and well, the sharks would probably come faster.
Oh how...cute...they were going to throw her to the sharks. Oh yes the work she had to do to keep her giggling in and not ruin the mood. And a look to Zykariel when he singled her out. "Straight to the heart of the island, where you will find your oh so precious treasure, Captain." Putting that little mock of distaste in her voice. Though a blink when the scenery literally changed and Malik made quite the entrance. Oh how cute. A look to the boys then. "There be trouble brewing for ye all. Arrh." Just because it was fun to say.
Well when scenery changed, his first instinct was to latch to mom from being startled before looking around at the little change of things...processing a moment and then getting a huge grin on his face as he looked around and took it all in. It was an ocean! And a ship! And daddy! Who was apparently guarding thier treasure. Walking across the couch he took a place beside Zykariel at the helm they now indeed had, pointing his little sword in Malik's general direction. "Then I hope you're ready to swim with the sharks! Arrh!"
He was quite relaxed himself. It was a very funny thing actually, seeing as he hated the acts they earlier commited, but it was okay when it was with Zahara. Besides she did have a point, it relaxed and mellowed him out for at least a few hours which was always a good thing. Not to mention that he may love Zykariel, but it was nice to be an adult without the child around for a bit.
Though his attention turned to Zahara, blinking at her next to him. Breifly he racked his mind for the answer. He knew surface elvish after all, being a hunter of them and having a teacher that was one, that was a skill that had to be known. "Mela...means love. Why?" That was an odd thing to ask about.

A quick nod to the oracle and he turned back towards the front of the couch, just in time to see it become the ocean. Could he touch that water? And then there were wooden boards, rolling with the movement of the 'ship' beneath his feet. And he had a spyglass! A real spyglass! That was thrilling now wasn't it? But as Malik's voice cut through he latched to Keely just in case, holding her tightly.
"Trouble indeed..." Lifting the spyglass he stared straight at Malik's ship. "It be the evil captain. Swaggering lily livered land lover he be." A shake of his head, he'd learned that one from the book. Keely had to be taken care of though. "Wench, go below and play cards and drink rum. That way you won't get taken." He held the wheel steady and turned it slightly, to allow them to be on almost a collision course with Malik's ship, still heading towards the island. "Land ho Captain. That be our mark, right there." Pointing to the slim line of the beach just visible in the distance and offering the spyglass in case Malikhai wanted to look for himself.
So he did know. But he wouldn't know what it meant in relation to her. She frowned lightly and then turned her head to rest it on his shoulder. "That's Arthur's nickname for me..." A shake of her head. "What do you think he means by that?"

"We'll be seeing about that thar, ye scurvy dogs! fire the long nines!"
cannon fire, the cannonballs flying ththough the air and splashing about the ship.
"The Dead Man's chest is mine! and ye dogs well ne'er have it!"
the ships crashed through wave and water.
"Break out da sweeps!"
and oars came out of malik's boat, and started to row as well.

Oh wasn't this just grand! Cannon fire and what not, taking the spyglass in hand and indeed taking a look, oh this was just grand wasn't it? "We have the oracle! We can have what we want!" Because said oracle, knew everything and could tell them how to beat their new foe. Though a look to Zykariel. "Do we have cannons?" Because he really didn't know. Walking back to his mother. "How do we take them on, woman?"
Piper got a rather sly look. "Take him on? But my dear Captain Malikhai...you forget one thing. You've lost your boots." A nod to the floor which was now the ocean...because they didn't walk around on the furniture with boots on, so they had taken them off and set them there. "They have been eaten by sharks by the way." Because she was oracle and knew things like that now didn't she? Indeed.
He blinked, gasped once he got it then looked back to his father, raising a fist and shaking it at him. "You're gonna pay for those boots!" He loved those boots, they were so comfy. A lokk to Zykariel. "Ram him and we'll board ship, we'll win. We're the good guys."
"That's an interesting choice of nickname." Giving it a little thought for a moment, rolling it around in his head. "Perhaps just a term of endearment, he is rather...attached to you. And surface elves are just those sort of creatures after all. I guess it would all depend on how he uses it really." After all, Sevilin and Zahara had nicknames for each other and they were just used from time to time, as opposed to Malik and Piper....who well used thier own all the time.

Fire the long nines? He hadn't read anything about that. But Zykariel took back the spyglass and sighted Malik's ship to see the cannons firing. "Maybe?" He wasn't really sure either. "Fire our cannons if we have them!" not sounding too sure about that one. He waited a few moments but nothing happened. "I guess not."
"And good guys always win." Sounded like a good plan to him. He turned the ship a little more so that nothing important would get hit when they smacked into each other and pushed his ship even faster. "We'll be colliding shortly Captain, better hold on and keep the oracle from going anywhere. We need her." He was a little worried about ramming his ship into Malik's but he kept on due course.
"Here we go!" As they got closer and hten finally the ships slammed into each other, theirs cutting Malik's off right at the head. A huge jolt shook the ship as wood splintered and "Prepare to board and take the ship! Capture the captain under any cost! Arr!" Pulling out his sword and pointing it at Malik. "Let's go!"
"Maybe...that's kind of what I thought it might be too. I didn't actually know what it meant until Piper mentioned it to me earlier today. But then at the same time...do you think he might mean something more by it? surface elves do that, dont' they? Fall in love?" Which made no sense to her. Anything that you had to fall into, couldn't be good. falling hurt, thereofre love had to hurt and well, she'd rather have nothing to do with it.
