Letting her eyes sweep quickly over his form, Mariam caught her bottom lip lightly between her teeth, a grin still tugging at the corners of her mouth. Tossing her hair behind her, she grinned at him as she got to her feet, saying, "Well I've never kissed you before, so how do <em>I</em> know you're not 'yadda yadda'? In fact," Mariam teased, "I may not like kissing you at all!"<br/><br/>With another grin, she set her feet on either side of his thighs and sat, straddling his lap instead of sprawling out next to him. "I suppose if I don't like it, I'll just have to suffer through it," she added with a melodramatic (and entirely fake) sigh. Her smile, never very far away, returned again, and she leaned down, bracing her hands against Damien's shoulders and pressing her lips to his. As she did, she closed her eyes and reached into the earth, channeling the regenerative, healing capabilities of the earth up through her feet and out her lips, her power traveling into Damien and tasting of green things.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div></div></div><br/><div class="floatleft">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/c/c0/Darien.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Darien Alexander (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=207204.msg10257075#msg10257075)<br/><strong>Cabin:</strong>Hermes<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Campfire<br/><strong>Date/Time:</strong>9/23, evening<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Mariam, open<br/><strong>Notes:</strong>sporting a black eye (for now)<br/><hr/>She suddenly didn't seem that all-fired innocent -- that smile, the hair toss, the way she was straddling him in those yoga pants he could feel the advantage slipping away. He realized it was getting harder to sort of put a rational thought together which was right about the time he decided the hell with it, he was going to enjoy the next couple of minutes. His hands came to rest on her hips, pretty sure there was already a goofy grin on his face even before her lips found his. She tasted like a summer day smelled -- green grass and sun-warmed air -- and maybe that didn't make much sense but it was what it was and it was nice. He could feel it, the power she was drawing from the earth underneath him, felt it seeping into him before the energy coalesced around his swollen and tender eye. He scarcely noticed the healing taking place, however, as truly her soft lips captured all his attention. Eventually an alarm bell sounded in his head as he realized the eye must be fine now and if he didn't put the brakes on before you knew they'd be making out right here at the campfire in front of everybody.<br/><br/>"Whoa. I think we can call that experiment a success," he quipped as he broke the kiss then turned his head from side to side so she could get a good look. "What do you think? My devastating good looks restored?"<br/><br/>Gazing up at her he realized his hands were in her hair, her silky curls burying his fingers. When had that happened? Just like that he was thinking about kissing her again and his instinct to be a smart-ass kicked in. He shifted as if he were going to sit up. "Wait right here. I'm going to find one of those Aries goons and get him to punch me again and we can try that again just to, you know, confirm the results."<br/>
