'Too Close!' Tehr's brain yelled at him in warning, 'this one is too close to the queen, you dare not respond in kind.'  But Tehr, for all of his strengths did have his failings.  His failing was most undobutably women, and this particular one had been occupying one small corner of his thoughts for the better part of the afternoon now.  Her tight leather outfit that clung to her like a second skin, the way it was cut, exposing more skin then the women under her command, the way that even now, he could make out the shape of her mons encased tightly.  No, he knew that even though it was dangerous to respond to any affections, his own failings would keep him from exercising the wiser choice.  So it was almost as if he was not in control of his own actions that he stopped, facing Lilian and smiled broadly.  Quickly checking to make sure there were no servants lingering in the halls to see his next action, he leaned forwards.  Pressing his body against Lilian's, enjoying the feel of her body while not overtly touching her with his hands, he put his mouth close to her ear and whispered, "Well Lilian, since you walked in and saw the Queen and I with her charms exposed I will let you draw your own judgements.  However should you wish to discuss matters further,"  He left what 'matters' she might wish to discuss open, "I'll just say...."<br/><br/>He drew back from her a step, but before he did, lightly pinched her leather encased backside then finished his thought, "...that I'm the kind of man who tries to make himself available."<br/><br/>Smiling, nay smirking, Tehr pulled back from her another step, just barely inside the range of comfortable space between the two.  His eyes flicked downwards for only a moment, hoping to see the outline of hard nipples beneath the tight leather.  Though the leather was armor after all and probably not supple enough to show such reactions.  "But as you say, the Queen is probably waiting, and my duty first and foremost must remain to her.  Likewise any other concerns should come secondary to the matter at hand of the good Sir Knight.  But I thank you for your personal attention in this matter Lilian, and hope that you call on me should you need."<br/><br/>Then, with a small bow to Lilian, he turned to set out to return to the Queen to report.  In addition he needed to test the waters as to her feelings on how discreet she needed a prince consort to be.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">ooc</div><div class="spoiler_body">So, this occurred to me.  Tehr will definitely put the goal of becoming the prince consort above most any other goal.  However when I designed this character I always envisioned him as being a lecherous sex fiend, which of course led to his interest in blue magic from the outset.  Now, if there's an action that Tehr KNOWS will spoil his chances with the queen, he will avoid it.   But in the outside meta-game context that this is a game, and a game being played on an ERP message board, I really don't want to spend the next 5 pages of the game avoiding sex or sexual situations with women other than the queen.  While it might be the most realistic that he 'save himself' for the queen, it just won't be as much fun to play.   Keeping this in mind, Tehr will probably continue to flirt with and sleep his way around the beautiful women of the kingdom.  Unless you have a large problem with this, I'd prefer if we could continue to do so.   <br/><br/>If however you want to make it somewhat 'realistic' where he will only get the queen at the exclusion of other women, let me know.  I wouldn't prefer this, but will respect your decision if that's the case.<br/><br/>Next, I think I'm going to be working on creating an OOC thread for this game over the next day or two.  I'm starting to get a little confused by the names and 'quests' that Tehr is on.  I'll link you to it when it's done.</div></div>
