Medusa listens with interest to Callirhoe's story, though she blushes adorably as the thief talks about the hero's manhood. "That's...quite a way to learn about your heritage." The three of them begin to ascend the mountain path, which is rather overgrown and unmaintained - probably due to the chimera. "Tell me, have you ever been in an actual fight?" Bellerophon interrupts to look at Callirhoe. "As in, a fight for your life?"
"I pay my debts." Megaros nods. "A few days will be fine - and no, our bargain was about hearing you moan my names, not money. Speaking of drachma, though, I know someone who'd be willing to pay you for some work. Not work like this, unfortunately, but more than you'd normally make, I think."
"Their culture influences ours, though - after all, you had to learn Greek just to get this job because it's what us nobles speak. I wouldn't go that far - what rises must fall eventually. The Greeks discovered that, I think - some guy throwing stuff from a tower, I don't remember the full story." Velicus chuckles. "Then it's decided - the two of us will see what this little country has to offer." The noble leans in. "I can't think of someone I'd rather see it with." His lips purse, and Rhea realises he's moving in for a kiss.
Yes! At last! Talpharos offered silent thanks to Artemis, had a quick look around to make sure he was still alone and had not been discovered by the other hunters, and then got to work field dressing the dead hart in order to prepare for bringing it back to the city.
(Perfectly fine, there's no need for an elaborate description - this isn't Red Dead Redemption
)
Velicus, seeing that she's not stopping him, continues to lean in, pressing his lips against her own. The young man kisses his bodyguard passionately, and not unskillfully, as a hand reaches up to caress her chest. Finally, he pulls away, grinning. "I'm really glad you said yes." After a brief, intense bit of eye contact, the patrician looks at the pot. "You should probably get back to that before it burns. Like I said, serve some for yourself. We'll eat together in my cabin if you want." Turning, the young man leaves.
(Yeah, that happens sometimes, lol.)(Perfectly fine, there's no need for an elaborate description - this isn't Red Dead Redemption
Talpharos manages to load up his prey onto Selene's wagon, covering it with cloth to make sure no one realises and decides to take away his prize. He hears the voices from before, but by the time they can reach his position, he's already leaving the forest, guiding the beast of burden back to Athens.D100: 79+10
(Well, you rolled really well and totally blew past the encounter I had planned, lol.)
Luckily it's close to midday, meaning that the young man doesn't have to wait long. He moves to the inn, where Selene instucts him to bring the beast into the back. "Just leave it on that bench, I'll have people prepare it later." She guides him back into the main room. "I'm impressed." Her eyes gaze at him.
Talpharos left the beast on the bench, as instructed, and followed behind Selene.
"I was...thinking about you, these past few days." She bites her lip. "Perhaps... Lean back."
"I.." Her face flushed a little though, which only worsened her embarrassment.
Callirhoe looks at Bellerophon seriously.
She finds the young man back in his cabin, taking the bowl gratefully. "Sorry if the kiss was too forward. I was just excited that you agreed to our date."
Bellerophon sighs, his stick clattering against the rocks as they make their way up the mountain path.. "I guarantee you that a chimera is far more dangerous than some panicking bandit - but I won't stop you if you're determined to join us."
As the young hunter's back touches the inn's bar, Selene moves forwards. Her hands slip around his neck as she kisses him, pulling him in passionately, but they don't stay there. Gasping for breath, Talpharos watches as the noble sinks to her knees before him, sliding her silks off her shapely body. She smirks as she sees him gazing into her cleavage, and slips her arms beneath her breasts, pushing them up to emphasise them, before her hands pull up his tunic and undo his loincloth. "I noticed you liked these very much last time. I know I wasn't giving you a reward for the hart, but it was such a difficult task I sent you on..." Her tongue reaches out, gliding along the sensitive flesh of his manhood, before he feels the warmth of her mouth proper, her head bobbing up and down his length as she sucks him. As she pulls up for air, a trail of spit connecting her mouth to his rod, she grips her breasts, trapping his cock between them. "There we are... nice and wet for me..."
