Re: In Nomine: the Pacific War (IC)
Sunae quickly moves towards her prey. She will not let him get away, especially not after coming close to ruining the party.
She knows he will try to get away. She knows he will try to manipulate things in his favor. But she knows things about the party and the people that he doesn't. Keeping all of that in mind, she continues to move towards him signaling to Cameron to do her thing and make the party happen. |

"Go home, Phaeton." Von Galen says it calmly and with heart. "Yeah!" someone in the crowd pipes up. "Go home, Phaeton. You're drunk!" There's some laughter and a few yeahs, and Phaeton looks disappointed. "What about the horses?" Von Galen clearly understands, but the people around him don't. He pauses, trying to strike the right tone to please the cool kids without slamming down the wayward demigod. "They'll be fine." "Fine, I'm going," but he hasn't figured out which exit offers less resistance, walking out or just vanishing. Quote:
Horses like these you calm but never really tame. These--yes, it's more than one under that hood--two or maybe four. They calm for now but there is fire in their 'blood'. There's a trick to mastering these beasts: confidence yes, music and assurances, but force will only get rebellion. They're not panicked, and never were. Tie-downs, the only realistic option there are tent stakes, which are plentiful. The people around are deciding whether this is an opportunity to get away from danger or to get closer to some fascinating hardware.

Ryuki nudges Corat towards Mitch, pats both angels on the shoulder and then steps between them. "There's your answer," he says, loudly enough for Von Galen and everyone in between to hear. Phaeton is petulant--no surprise. "There was a question?" Ryuki rolls his eyes as if it's the stupidest thing he's ever heard. "Yes! Whether you should bring your idiot car into the middle of a dance floor." The car is apparently offended. Bad choice of words there.

Re: In Nomine: the Pacific War (IC)
Sunae sees Von Galen and realizes that he is about to make a move. She does the only thing she can think of.
"COWARD! You try to ruin the party and you don't have the balls to man up? Is this what Odin preaches? Swing your non-existent manhood around and hide behind others when they call you out? And you call yourself a warrior, HA! You can't even face a woman!" It's a bold move, but it's a challenge to his lord and to his masculinity he cannot ignore. And to issue this challenge in such a public arena? Can he afford to lose face here in front of so many? |

But Mitch's words make her stop and think for a moment. She looks at Von Galen then she looks at the car. "I just realized that you are right. I should think of who could get hurt. I should think of what's important. And I just realized that he isn't important to me at all. Thank you Mitch" She goes to the car and looks at it. She reaches out and touches the hood and runs her fingers over it. Even as it fights her she still continues to touch it gently and caress it. Then she starts to speak to it softly "How can you allow a fool like Phaeton to command you? He's not worthy of your beauty, your power, your majesty. I understand now what an honor it is to be so close to you. Please ... allow me to indulge my senses. You're so beautiful ... I'm in rapture." Last edited by ladyarcana55; 11-15-2017 at 09:45 PM. |

Re: In Nomine: the Pacific War (IC)
Kane carefully lets Sunae "take the reins," stepping clear when he's sure Phaeton won't bolt. He looks at Von Galen and then at Mitch and Corat. He mouths one word to the two angels, an unsounded question.
"Permission?" For a Malakite who is not the leader of the party, the answer to that one word can bind or loose.

Von Galen has had his manhood questioned and his...well, the horses were stolen by that girl, and he's not taking it well at all. Still, he's not an idiot. "I'm not hiding." He steps forward of his companions, but not very far forward. "Good to see you appreciate a fine car. That's what we're all here for, after all, fine cars." He waits for the yeahs from the crowd, but they're weak. "And fine bodies," which gets a little laugh--he's a bit short for most of the women here, "and fine music" which gets DJ Cameron a cheer, "and---" but he's interrupted by the dialogue with Kane. Quote:
Ryuki, however, can read lips. "No," he says out loud, interrupting Von Galen, facing vaguely in the direction of the three angels so as not to give any one away. "He's leaving."

Sunae is ignoring everything around her and is focusing solely on the car. She continues to give them a lover's caress. Her fingers exploring every curve, every crevice while her palms follow every plane. She even leans on the hood to reach the areas that are a bit far for her. As she does so, there are men that take advantage of it to look up her short skirt. "Why in the world would he bring you here, at the place where people will spill drinks on you or bump into you or damage you? You should be at the show floor where everyone can marvel at you and treat you with the respect you deserve. But no matter. They will make way for you. I'll see to that." She begins to make her way around the car. She takes her time as she touches and caresses the car. |

Re: In Nomine: the Pacific War (IC)
Von Galen seems relieved that the immediate challenge is off, and is not inclined to challenge Ryuki. After all, Phaeton is just leaving.
