Of Shadows and Swords (Chiarra)

Melody laughed along with Lucius, because she thought Archer was being funny, but as they played a second round, she wasn't winning this time.
 
Archer smiled a little when Maggy took to his jokes, but was grinning for other reasons when he began to pull ahead. "Ah hah! It was beginner's luck after all!"
 
((Maggy? lmao))


"So," she said. "I still beat you the first time." She grinned and stuck her tongue out at him playfully.
 
((God dang it -_- Too many RPs with M names))


Archer rolled his eyes and waved a hand at her. "Semantics, my dear, semantics. I'm still winning now, and that's all that matters."


Lucius shook his head. "You bicker with her as much as you do with me." Just less violently.
 
((Lol, it's okay ^_^ ))


"I think that's his hobby," she teased. She remembered something, "Where's Natalie?" she asked.


Natalie had been called away by Alric.
 
((Gonna log off for a while. Watching a tv show I don't want to keep pausing lol))


Lucius shrugged slightly, placing his next card down as the game went on. "Alric needed her for something. They're probably just working on the act again."
 
"I see," she said. taking her turn when it came. "I think I'm about to win this one," she said to goad on Archer.


((Okay then))
 
((Sorry, I've been addicted to this show and I've been watching it all day O_O Like, almost literally all day. And most of yesterday, and a couple episodes the day before that xD I've only got a couple replies before I leave and then I'll be back late))


Archer gave her a petulant look and shook his head. "In your dreams."


Lucius fought the urge to roll his eyes. "Well, I think we know what's in your dreams, Archer."


Archer glared at him, but was distracted enough he didn't put down his best card, and Lucius held back a grin. If he could gang up on Archer and have Melody win, he would.
 
((What show is it?))


Melody playfully stuck her tongue out at him once more and then just laughed a bit.
 
((Teen Wolf. It's surprisingly good))


Archer pouted again and tossed his cards onto the center of the space they were using like a table when he lost. "Dang it!" He cried, then dissolved into laughter. "That wasn't fair!"
 
((Love that show! I'm not that far into it yet though lol. Only on season one.))


Melody laughed some more and said, "Told ya." She looked around and saw people starting to pack up. "Are we leaving?" she asked.
 
((Yay! ^.^ I'm on 18. Which is Season 2, ep 6 :3 I just can't stop. Netflix only has seasons one and two, but you can watch season 3 on mtv online))


Archer sighed, then looked up as Melody did. "So soon? We haven't even been here that long."
 
Hulu has all of the seasons on it. I have both Netflix and Hulu and I'm watching what I can on Netflix right now because I hate commercials, but then I'm going to switch over to Hulu plus and finish it off.))


"We've only had really one performance," she added. "Maybe they are just preparing to leave and we aren't really leaving yet," she said hopefully, but she knew better.
 
((I don't like commercials either, but for reasons I won't speak of I don't want my mom to know I'm watching it lol so I watch on MTV . com, since Netflix stuff can be tracked.


Also, I can't quite feel guilty about the fact that I keep waiting for the next shirtless Derek scene xD Stiles is pretty hilarious, too. I like him))


Archer shook his head and started cleaning up the cards. "Or something's gone wrong. Come on. Lets go find the ring master and find out."
 
((Well, I'm curious, but I won't ask. I agree with you one everything though ^_^ ))


Melody nodded and helped him clean up a bit and stood up when they were done. When they found him, he was saying something to Natalie and she was clearly upset about something. He grew quiet when they came up to them though.
 
((I'm not quite ashamed to say I kind of drool over Derek a little @.@ He's just so gorgeous lol I loved the moment in season one when Stiles got Derek to take his shirt off so Danny would help them with some computer stuff xD Then Derek slams his head into the steering wheel and just goes "You know why." I died.))


Lucius frowned a little as they got closer, worried. "Is . . . Is something wrong? Are we leaving so soon?"
 
((Don't think I've seen that one yet llol))


"I don't feel it's safe to hang around here for much longer. As you know, we are being followed, but he is so hard to pin down, so I can't really stop him. So for now we move on before he can alert anyone to us. It's for the best," he said.
 
((What! You have to see it! Go finish the first season so we can talk about it xD ))


Archer started to respond, glancing at the way Lucius was looking at the ground now, but Lucius interrupted.


"We could pin him down. . ." He said, quietly and unsurely. "If I lure him out."
 
((Okay then lol ^_^ .))


"Are you sure?" Melody asked him.


"We could. Then I could try and get rid of him somehow..." he trailed off, thinking of ways he could get rid of that nuisance.
 
Lucius only glanced at Melody. "I'm not really sure of anything. . . Only that we can't run forever. And that he wants Natalie and I for something. . . Alrin, do you think you could stop him?"
 
"I may be able too," he said. "Though I can't go as far as killing. It would give my circus a bad name after all," he said with an amused smile. "What I can do is erase his memories, though I don't know how long that will last before he somehow finds a way to recover them. However, if we do go the more sinister route, I could freeze him where he wouldn't be able to move even an inch. He would be forever alive, forced to stay that way, and unable to do anything else. It is cruel, but it's a punishment worthy for the things he has done. The only problem is, you would have to literally pin him down for me to do this, otherwise I might accidentally hit either you or your friends." 
((And I am now watching that episode of Teen Wolf you were talking about lol ^_^ .))
 
((I can't really respond right now, as I am just borrowing a friends iPad, but YES xD isn't it the most hilarious thing ever? I love Stiles talking to Danny. "You're a horrible person." "I know, it keeps me up at night." Lol And, you know. Shirtless Derek :3))
 
((Exactly lol, and I laughed my butt off when he slammed Styles head into the steering wheel.)) 
((I have now finished season one and starting season 2 ^_^ ))
 
((Yay! Sorry I've been gone. Really busy. Might not be on much tomorrow either and I gotta sleep now))


Lucius bit his lip, not wanting to do something so horrible but not wanting to voice the thought either because he'd seen only a fraction of what the man could do. "I . . . I don't think I can hold him down. . . He could've killed me ten times over by now, and he's never even broken a sweat."
 
((So sorry, my internet went out and didn't come back on until today!))


Alrin sighed softly and scratched his long white beard. (lol Anyways...) "Then what would you suggest?" he asked thoughtfully.
