"Perfect ..." Sensations of movement, sensations of change and then out into the dark, but the dark of night. She finds herself waist deep in the bijou. Whereever it is, its deep .. as theres no lights, no sounds and only the moon faintly coming through the clouds to direct her. He has returned her to nature true ...

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 12:05:35 AM)
::she blinks, and for a moment, grasps for Audrey, wondering if he made the journey too. She glances around, taking stock of where she is, taking in her surroundings: sight, touch, hearing, scent... even opening her mouth to breathe in the scents a bit better. Whispering:: I usually do this as an animal.... ::she feels around, wondering if her dark stranger is here with her as well::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 12:07:20 AM)
She feels him moving off her, moving to slip into the reeds and eyes glinting even in the dark, despite who he is. "Are you not an animal? Become like the fly trap, become the predator ... perhaps your target ... an alligator?"

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 12:10:15 AM)
::she tilts her head, beginning to wade through the murky waters, as she moves for an island in the swamps, the mud squishing between her toes, the water coming off her in sheets, she crouches, letting her eyes adjust to the light, her body motionless... save the silent movement of her eyes, as she hunts, remaining impossibly still... plant-like. Her cooler, sluggish blood helping her blend in with her surroundings, arms ready, body relaxed. Waiting.... searching::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 12:12:56 AM)
Time passes, as it does. Time at least a constant and she feels herself literally hardening, combating the cold and the situation with reflective ease. About her the bijou lives, birdlife, snakes, all matter of bugs and smaller critters. Not just once does she feel things slither about her thighs and feet, expecting her curiously.

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 12:17:04 AM)
::waiting for larger prey, she remained still, eyes every moving, ever searching. She let her fingers move over some of the smaller creatures that came to explore, feeling their minute heartbeats and relishing in their tiny lives, so easily stolen should she desire it. She waits for her chosen prey... something larger. Something just as cold as she is::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 12:18:48 AM)
She doesn't actually see it but there ahead of her, the faintest of ripples in the surface of the water, faintly showing in the light of the night. Signs of something bigger beneath ...

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 12:21:35 AM)
::feeling the unwavering strength within her, many times more powerful than usual, despite the mostly unchanged physical appearance. She remains so still, before she rises a bit, slowly, her muscles tensing up as she prepared to strike, teeth elongated::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 12:22:43 AM)
There, just beneath the water she notices the large shape of the alligator, a being that if it was wanting could remove her legs from her body. Every bit as much a predator as she...

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 12:28:23 AM)
::a crouch, and then, a flawless pounce into the shallow water, powerful arms were crushing around the beast, along the jaw, keeping it from biting her. Long legs were wrapped around the beast, trying to keep it from thrashing or rolling, letting out a violent hiss as she starts to crush the beast with her arms and legs::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 12:32:19 AM)
They get thrown under the water, the alligator going into what is normally a death roll for its prey, this time it might be for it. In, out, down, up, it all starts to lose meaning as shes taken about by the biggest prey she could have... well, here.

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 12:38:53 AM)
::she grips even harder with her legs and arms, glad for her new height now, hair all over the water, plastered to the beast and herself. Realizing that it's not going to die before she has breathing problems, she hisses again, frustrated, before she reaches, and finding a squishy place between its armored plates, finding a soft place, to sink her fangs into the beast, squishing, biting, and pressing harder and harder. It took a few moments, before she could feel her lips stretching, out to the very maximum they can stretch, before she can feel them... split....? Surprise almost loses her the fight that moment, so shocked, as she feels her cheeks splitting, dirty swamp water rushing in, her cheeks quickly splitting up the sides, as her mouth starts to take on a bigger area, her fangs sinking in as she gets a -much- better grip::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 12:40:54 AM)
As shes doing that, she feels venom coursing into the beast and then gratifyingly a pop as its very neck snaps in her arms. If she wasn't going to kill it one way, then the other would most certainly have sufficed. The thrill of the hunt coursing through her entire body, the predator exhalting.

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 12:46:45 AM)
::Ais let go slightly, making sure the beast was truly gone, giving it another bit of a twist around the neck, just to ensure its death. Her fangs sunk in a bit, tasting the blood, relishing in the flavor, animalistic, heady, and she pulls back out, letting out a loud roar, enough to make herself the top predator in the bayou tonight. Struggling, she unwrapped her body from the beast, as she began to drag it towards her little island, snarling again, happily, licking the blood that was trailing down her chin and jaw... her cheeks beginning to seal up on their own. She reached up, wiping a drop of bloodied venom from a fang, sniffing curiously::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 12:52:44 AM)
The very smell makes her reel before regathering herself. Hmm, that ... that almost smells plantlike, organic. Starting to realise that shes as much if not more plant now than shes ever been. A curious way to put the plant world back to the top of the food chain....

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 12:55:33 AM)
::she blinks and rubs the venom between her fingertips, dragging the beast up on the island, -her- island, she looks around, watching for her shadow guest::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 12:58:17 AM)
Its a while before out of the reeds comes darkness, floating over the surface of the water, not disturbing it in the slightest. "You look satisfied... I believe you have been learning?"

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 12:58:47 AM)
(grins, I totally pictured the Legend Darkness, when you said that)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 1:02:27 AM)
::she smiles darkly, a predatory, fanged smile, blood drying on her cheeks, her lips, spilling over her chin. The blood is an inky black, trailing over her creamy pale skin, a startling contrast in the dark bayou.:: I welcome the dark within me... as I welcome the light.

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 1:05:31 AM)
A laugh then. "Slip your head back, you felt something happening then ... show me the venus fly trap.... show me the monster." Hand moving down to the dead alligator. "Most impressive."

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 1:09:41 AM)
::she paused, watching the darkness in front of her. She smiled, and it took another second, before she smiled a bit more.. widely, the crack appearing at her cheeks, along her jaw, fangs elongating once more, smiling ear to ear.. literally::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 1:12:32 AM)
"Audrey ... show her..." A dark smile before Aislinn feels her head pushing back, her lips parting and her mouth opening to the heavens. Becoming akin to her namesake for a while. Fangs glistening all about her wide lips, as though to wait for something to accidently find her.

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 1:19:33 AM)
Audrey.... ::able to say mentally, before she's stunned into silence. Closing her eyes as she felt her..... her mouth open.... her mouth?!!? She was shocked... allowing her familiar to take over now, having been in the "driver's seat"...now.. Audrey's deal::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 1:21:22 AM)
Her arms slide down to her side, feet pushing into the ground and she stands that way, feeling ... surprisingly comfortable and prepared to stay like this ... well, indefinitely. Its a rather curious feeling actually, not feeling any desire to move, to be animated. Though all of a sudden one of the limbs of the alligators is thrown into her gaping maw.

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 1:24:52 AM)
::the cold blood sluggishly moving though her veins now, and she felt her body slowing, respirating was almost nil, her heartbeat was soft, and she was just starting to be lulled by the peace she was feeling, before she felt the limb slam into her mouth, bouncing and jostling in her large maw::

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 1:30:30 AM)
::pausing, her mouth clamping tightly over the limb, she just... stopped... her thoughts clear for Audrey to hear... "I haven't eaten in... months.... " ::she was considering what she needed to do, as she felt the enzymes begin to digest the limb already, replenishing her body as the enzymes broke down the meat, solids, blood oozing down the lines along her face, trailing down her jaw, her neck, along her shoulder and sliding onto her chest::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 1:33:19 AM)
The enymes start to break it down, moving through her body with a speed and efficiency she'd not have imagined. The spirit moving down and then she watches it doing something she couldn't even have imagined it doing. A ripping sensation as bone, gristle, sinew and tendons tear as one. Head removed, trophy-like. "You are going home..." A hand moving to offer itself to her.

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 1:38:57 AM)
::she was blinking, watching the shadowy hand... solid.. yet ....not. She watched it detach the alligator head, and she watched the spectre, and she realized the very serious strength the spirit was demonstrating... yet, had not hurt her, not once. Her hand slipped into the spirit's hand, squeezing lightly::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 1:41:19 AM)
The darkness takes her again, swirling and then its almost disorientating as she finds herself back in the safety of her sanctum. Back within New Orleans. The spirit moving towards the far wall, placing the alligator at its base. "Where it belongs, on display. Hunting..."

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 1:44:42 AM)
::feeling slightly emboldened from her evening with Death, she watches him mount the alligator head on her wall, and she tilts her head:: Is there other prey? ::asked quietly::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 1:48:21 AM)
"In time ... there may be those who silenced myself and my brethren. For now though, just be prepared..." Moving over to her and then stroking his cool hand along her cheek. "And remember death everytime you look to the alligator... mount it, it will be a good trophy."

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 1:52:33 AM)
::she nods, again, unable to avoid the tremble as Death caresses her soft skin, the merging of her and Audrey starting to fade. She watches the shadows, studying them as she speaks softly:: I let both Death and Life surround me... In a place overflowing with Life... it is a good reminder of Death.

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 1:54:23 AM)
"Yes ... but experiencing that side is healthy. I hope you enjoyed my visit ..." Starting up the stairs away from her and upstairs she hears her radio come on, jazz starting to play.

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:01:20 AM)
::she smiles, and it was a genuine smile... one of her rare beautiful ones:: I am honored by your visit... ::not wanting to be presumptuous, she doesn't attempt to solicit another visit. A respectful not of her head::

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:02:00 AM)
nod*

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 2:02:30 AM)
(and how i bet she didn't expect to be saying that when he arrived :) end scene i guess. Any comments?)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:04:28 AM)
(giggles, no... she's wary of weird things. I enjoyed it thoroughly... like I said, I enjoy the dichotomy between Life and Death... which is why she's able to see from a Euthie's point of few usually. IF.... we had many. And... I can go darker. ::grins::

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 2:05:20 AM)
(yeah, i bet you can go darker :) I'm actually going to have the city go weird for the mages of the city soon, i'm just musing a little how to do it...)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:05:54 AM)
(too many 'Bena are very Life -only- types, and I think that's not quite the way to be... Life has to have Death. Heeeeeey, what do you mean by that?! :oP

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 2:06:49 AM)
(well, the city's waking up, i want to make that restart with a "bang"

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:07:06 AM)
(I meant by the "I bet you can go darker"... lol)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:07:14 AM)
I figured we're about to have an influx of magic.

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 2:07:17 AM)
(oh, haha, well i know you have fun doing so)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:07:35 AM)
(I will only point one thing out... this -is- the world of -darkness-... )

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 2:07:57 AM)
(yeah, i'm thinking about having many of the spirits of the city walking amidst the mages. With all the pros and con's that brings. No hiding from the chauchemar then.)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:08:26 AM)
(And Ais is usually so sweet to most people... it's nice to play out her darker side. No one expects it)

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 2:09:07 AM)
(haha, it almost would've been sweet to see someone walk in on her a monster)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:09:23 AM)
(laughs, yeah... we can arrange for that another time. )

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:09:29 AM)
(people kept wanting in on our scene)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:09:38 AM)
(Connor doesn't even know where Ais lives)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:10:18 AM)
I like the spirit idea... I can't wait to help you do it. :o)

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 2:11:06 AM)
yeah, i think i might have it start soon, people are already finding out about the amount of spirits in certain parts of the city

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:11:11 AM)
Neat...

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:12:03 AM)
I need bed, I'm an hour late. We can go over more tomorrow?

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 2:12:19 AM)
okay, and maybe. I have work the next two days

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:12:20 AM)
:o) I let you keep me up

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:12:26 AM)
I can talk on skype

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:12:27 AM)

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 2:12:34 AM)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:12:47 AM)

Tohunga (Feb 9, 2011 2:12:53 AM)

Aislinn Connelly (Feb 9, 2011 2:12:58 AM)
