(Sorry for the delay, started writing this a long time ago but today's been trying. I already have some ideas for special abilities for Sin's weapons, like her claw covers turning into extendable chain blades that can be used for quickly whipping around areas, as well as actual whipping, etc.<img alt=";)" src="./images/smilies/wink.gif" title="Wink"/>Though I'm certain even if the others haven't noticed yet, Yigg will be able to pick up on the reveal near the end of the post. )<br/><br/>As Yigg offered to help them train, Sin waved the offer off. "No need here. This one's all too eager to tell me about every dangerous thing he's capable of." She said waving her right hand. She then lifted her left, still adorned in silky lace, "This one... She's more the softer type but she'll help when the time is right. So, we'll just be heading to bed." She said, speaking for herself and Melissandra.<br/><br/>It didn't seem Meli was quite as eager though. "Huh? But, I've got questions, I wanted to--"<br/><br/>"... WE'RE going to bed." Sin repeated, this time grabbing the little woman and holding her tightly in hand. "See you all tomorrow." She nodded as she walked off to find an appropriate room.<br/><br/><br/>-----------<br/><br/>As the training began, Spectra emerged from Barusa to help her remain light and mobile, or that's what she said. She had other reasons, primarily...<br/><br/>The succubus approached Yggdrassil, uncharacteristically cautiously. "Yiggy, now that we're 'alone'" she said not necessarily meaning truly alone but more about Nono and none of the other God's being around at the moment, "I have a very important question for you. What would you think, if I decided to... ascend?" She asked. She was fairly certain her friend would be excited and supportive, but again, she also knew there was the possibility that a fear of competition or a sense of challenge might arise as well.<br/><br/><br/><br/>------------<br/><br/><br/><br/>"And WHERE do you think you're going? Get your ass back here little woman, you still owe me a rub for 'eating' you earlier."<br/>"A-heh... You know, you're going to have to be more specific with your terms otherwise it might seem kind of weird when you're making those kind of threats and I start looking excited. Speaking of which, do you think the others have realized we've been fooling around yet?" Melissandra asked as she hopped her little body down the length of Sin's back as the tigress lay on her front atop The lush and lavish bed they had chosen.<br/><br/>"I think they've been too focused on their own things to even THINK of that possibility yet." Sin replied, wiggling her paws and toes as she awaited the mouse woman's arrival at them. "Speaking of noticing things... Am I crazy, or is that hat new?"<br/><br/>"Ah, well... You ARE crazy, BUT in this case you're also not wrong. He happens to be one of the demon tools from the stash on the red dutchess. Kind of reminds me of my old mentor actually. My challenge was like a big test of magic skill and creativity, and I guess I did well enough to convince him to stick around. It's pretty neat, he's really knowledgeable about a lot of magical facts, spells, and artifacts, and can even hold supplies. You know the old pulling a rabbit out of a hat trick? Well, like that, except for real and way better."<br/><br/>"Hm." Sin nodded feeling her finally arriving at her destination. "Ahh, there you are. Now remember to push nice and firm, I want to really FEEL it."<br/><br/>"Why am I doing this again? Wouldn't it be much easier for you to massage me?"<br/><br/>"Of course. I could massage your whole body one handed... But that's not the point. I ALREADY pleasured you, now you do something for me. I happen to find this both enjoyable, and entertaining." Sin stated with a smirk.<br/><br/>"OF COURSE you do... Anyway, I also got a dagger. Though, it's a little trickier. It's quite powerful but also really dangerous. It's a conduit for blood magic, one of the most dangerous and questionable forms of dark magic. I usually don't dabble in that sort of stuff but, this one just... Kind of... Called to me, if you know what I mean? The trial was... It was pretty crazy..."<br/><br/>"Heh... Yeah."<br/><br/>"Anyway... Without going into all the crazy details, basically the whole MORAL of the trial was that, you need to recognize and be comfortable with your own strengths and weaknesses. Recognizing them can only help you become better if you don't obsess over them in a negative way. But, it's also important to recognize what others are capable of and how they can assist you. KIND OF like how a captain assigns the best roles for her crew to fill."<br/><br/>"Sucking up isn't going to end this any sooner, come on, this is what I wanted so you can use those self actualizing skills of yours to give me the best damn paw massage your cute little body possibly can!" She replied with a playfully patronizing tone.<br/><br/>"Next time, I am thinking up something much more elaborate for you to do for me!" Meli countered, a hint of annoyance as she pressed against the tigress's pads.<br/><br/>"Mmm... You do that... But until then, you just keep on doing THAT." Sin smiled and moaned happily in dismissive reply.
