I'm so sorry I was not able to help earlier!" Yarminda said as Kleris fell into her arms. The teacher gently stroked her fingers through the blonde hair, doing her best to provide comfort.<br/><br/>"It's clear that you're going through a lot. Let's talk out some solutions; I'll do my best to help you."<br/><br/>Sitting up straight, the professor set an<em>animated tools</em>quill to copy down notes as she spoke.<br/><br/>"First off, the workflow of various activities is getting to you. You need some time off and a reprieve from your normal studies, and I don't just mean the weekend. You've been gaining consistent A's in just about every subject, so your grades are in no danger of falling. How does two weeks of homework-free days sound? Normally we clock them in after the finals, but we can move them around to best fit individual schedules."<br/><br/>"Secondly...judging by the artwork, I take it your new boyfriend's a minotaur. Your 'obsession' is merely the racial side effects necessary to keep a one-gender species in a normal reproductive rate. Quite simply, your body and mind are reacting to his presence, encouraging you to make yourself his. As long as you consent and any other partners are okay with it, this is not a problem if you know what you're getting into. But, if you want to quell those urges...I have just the spell."<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Unseen Lover<br/>Summoning (Conjuration) [Sexual]<br/>Level: Brd 2, Sor/Wiz 2<br/>Components: V, S, M<br/>Casting Time: 1 standard action<br/>Range: Close (25 ft. +5 ft./2 levels)<br/>Effect: One invisible, mindless sexual partner<br/>Duration: 1 hour/level<br/>Saving Throw: None<br/>Spell Resistance: No<br/><br/>An unseen lover is a variation of the unseen servant spell. It creates an invisible, mindless force that performs sexual acts on verbal command from the caster. The unseen lover is generally shapeless, although it can be commanded to take a vague form similar to a male or female humanoid, with normal-size physical features. The unseen lover can only use the Perform (sexual techniques) skill, but can only achieve DC 10 (routine performance). Because it is not a living creature, the unseen lover cannot be used to activate any feats that require sexual congress with a living partner, such as Kundalini, Tantric, or Virility.<br/><br/>In all other ways, this spell follows the same rules as <em>unseen servant.</em></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><em>Kleris learns the Unseen Lover spell! Unseen Lover makes it so that Kleris gains a +5 bonus on the relevant Will Saves.</em><br/><br/>"This spell conjures an invisible force with a sensation akin to a naked humanoid. If you create it with the mental image of a minotaur when you feel...overwhelmed, it will fool your body into thinking it's the real thing. Your obsession will not go away, but it will be forestalled until you choose to have sex with him again. Keep this in mind going forward, and don't be afraid to communicate your worries to your partner. If he is a good man he should be aware of the power his race hold over women and progress at a more comfortable rate. If you feel that he may be taking advantage of you or doesn't listen, do not hesitate to inform me or a teacher. You, and the safety of the students, are paramount."<br/><br/>"As for the Midgard incident...I promise it will never happen again. Redhurst not only cut all ties with Bemmea as a result, I've been doing deep divination to pull up any patterns or triggers related to their handiwork. If they move against us, we'll know, and be prepared, and strike them without mercy."<br/><br/>A silence lingered after the last sentence.

"K-Kleris...you look...wow!"<br/><br/>"The best kind of service is one done by someone you know, that way you know it's genuine," Craig said as he put up both feet on the table.<br/><br/>"I-I just cleaned that table!" Zull yammered. "I mean-what...can I...get for you?"<br/><br/>Rensha's hand reflexively clenched and pulled itself behind her own back before she could make any obscene gestures, but the writing on her face did nothing to conceal her contempt.<br/><br/>"It's just for a day," she wordlessly mouthed. "Think of the money..."<br/><br/>Lillin, on the other hand, relished the moment. "Hey there sweetie, welcome to the Fireside Cafe! Is there anything I can get for you?"<br/><br/>The tiefling cut off Craig before he could harass Kleris or the others.

After the end of a nice long day it came time to change out of maid outfits and return to the familiar bastion of Redhurst. The girls traveled in a group, but while waiting for an aircab at a platform Kleris caught eyes with Retario; the friend of his father who he hadn't seen in 2 weeks since the incident at the Riedran Embassy.<br/><br/>Retario exchanged a knowing glance as he scanned his friends, debating what to say and when. Zullinat and Rensha recognized him and returned his presence with friendly waves, although Lillin and Rachel were in the dark.<br/><br/>"Hello Kleris. Are you all headed in Everbright's direction by chance?"<br/><br/><em>Woah, is that the hottie who carried you back to school?</em>Rachel telepathically asked.<em>I wouldn't mind servicing him, if you know what I mean.</em><br/><br/>"Not really," Rensha answered, "But it's been a while since we seen you...Retario was it?"<br/><br/>"Yes, and I'm sorry I haven't tried to get in touch sooner."<br/><br/>The last part was directed to Kleris in particular.<br/><br/>"I don't think we met?" Lillin asked. "Wait a second...are you Kleris' uncle?"<br/><br/>"The one and only!"<br/><br/>Rachel and Lillin squealed in delight as they grasped Kleris in a double-hug. "Wow, you never told us you had such a hot...er, cool family member!"<br/><br/>Between Zull and Rensha's affability and the fiendish girls' adolescent crushes, it was already a given that he'd be accompanying them.<br/><br/>"Hmmm, do you know if it has anything cheap and useful for wizarding students?" Rachel asked.<br/><br/>"It does, and I can point you to the stores with the best deals, if you're interested."<br/><br/>"We are!"<br/><br/>Retario put up a good face for the sake of the girls, although when he got some relative privacy he switched to a serious scowl at Kleris.<br/><br/>"You're being watched. We're going to try and lose them. Stay in one group."
