*He walked into the apartment with a heaved sight, pulling off both jackets he flung them literally across the room into a chair, though he only dropped his work bag which hit with a heavy thunk*
Sophie Willows (Jan 30, 2011 10:11:44 PM)
*She followed him inside, her own coat unbuttoned and left to fall laid accross the lounge.* So... how do you think we did?
James Laurence (Jan 30, 2011 10:14:13 PM)
We did our best my dear, but I cannot say with any certainty how it will turn out for us.... I have been thinking on it though.... Maksim, I know you all trust him, like him perhaps even... But he may not be our best choice.... on his side we will have to likely kill many of those we call friends, with the current administration... It might not be much better.... I had an idea though of a third option.... Maksim is not the only one with ties to Los Angeles
Sophie Willows (Jan 30, 2011 10:15:10 PM)
*Taking a seat on the lounge she curls her legs underneath her and looks to James in question.* What's your third option and then I'll tell you my fourth.
James Laurence (Jan 30, 2011 10:16:32 PM)
I have connections to LA... the leader of our faction, is a former Ally of mine from the war, and before that even. She was my friend long ago and I have been trying to renew it now.... Perhaps we can get their aide, the support of someone bigger than either to settle things here someone we can get behind and follow.
Sophie Willows (Jan 30, 2011 10:17:59 PM)
It's possible. *She looks over to him.* Or we could accept that this court is weak and frivolous and remove ourselves from it. We could create an army of our own, a paid militant force that the court could call upon at need.
James Laurence (Jan 30, 2011 10:22:12 PM)
Why should we offer ourselves as mercenary to a weak court, instead of taking it, making it strong, turning them, into our own army, and giving our own faction a precious resource such as this city. *He smiled to her and walked over to her kneeling down infront of her slowly, one hand stroking one of her thighs as he looked up at her*
Sophie Willows (Jan 30, 2011 10:23:16 PM)
You're right. *She sighs as she watches him, her hand running through his hair.* It is only that I find it so hard to raise my hands against our own kind. Even fools such as Derek are precious to me in their own way.
James Laurence (Jan 30, 2011 10:25:30 PM)
*He smiled and lifted her before sliding to sit under her gently and leaned in kissing her cheek* I know my love, but, this way, will lead to the least bloodshed. Also, at the least we know we can trust more of our own to not, consume the dead, they will only go back to the pit for a time.
Sophie Willows (Jan 30, 2011 10:28:04 PM)
*She leant her head against his shoulder with a small sigh.* Yes but that is a harsh lesson to have to dispense. I feel for Derek, he truly is a good soldier, only his pride and his ambition is so much greater than his capability's.
James Laurence (Jan 30, 2011 10:30:07 PM)
It might be the only lesson that will get through to him, even if we win in this, he wont become a follower again, that, I am sure of. *He kissed her neck lightly and held her close*
Sophie Willows (Jan 30, 2011 10:31:04 PM)
*She tilted her head to the side to make her neck more available to his lips.* Shall we leave the lions if they decide in his favour?
James Laurence (Jan 30, 2011 10:32:10 PM)
Yes darling we will leave them, we will not follow a fool. We will not fight for a weak court. *He spoke softly continuing to kiss her neck down to where her shoulder meets her neck, his hands resting wrapped around her waist*
Sophie Willows (Jan 30, 2011 10:33:17 PM)
*She smiles content to leave her fate in his hands, as she lets the politics fall from her mind and turns her intention instead to the much more interesting task of soothing his stress.*
Sophie Willows (Jan 30, 2011 10:33:22 PM)
