Back in Luke's Arborlon apartment the fire is dying down. The smell of breakfast soon to be delivered wafting from the cooks in the levels below. The dim room is quiet, smelling of sleep and intimacy. Rabbit lays across Luke's chest, she is idly playing with his locks. Twirling them around her finger then smelling them repeatedly. She continues doing this until she senses he has woken up. Kissing his chest lightly, affectionately she runs her hands along the length of him with a happy smile.
"Good morning ssussun d'ussta xukuth, did you sleep well?" Her large eyes reflecting the light of the fireplace. //ssussun d'ussta xukuth (light of my heart) RABBIT

"Yes. I think. I guess I sleep well after being stabbed. How about you? You know both Te'Teh and I could have managed that subterfuge you decided to pull. We are both good for that," Luke says.
He runs a hand along her back, and shifts under her.

Rabbit stretches under Luke's hand, letting out a pleased guttural sound. Once she reaches the end of her stretch she looks down at Luke. She leans over and kisses his chin softly, shifting her weight around.
"I am sorry I didn't tell you. I didn't know how to tell you and Te'Teh without Jack or Key finding out. I don't think either of those two could have kept a secret. I promise in the future to keep you informed, I truly didn't intend to worry you." She looks over at the fireplace then back to Luke, her gaze watching him intently."Thank you for staying with me, I knew I probably wouldn't die, but I felt trapped, vulnerable and maybe a little scared. You being there made it far more bearable." RABBIT

"Being there for people during physically difficult times is sort of my profession, you know. I also wasn't going to let anyone harm you while it was happening. I had boy lightening by my side, and I do cast a mean spell here or there, myself. Not as flashy as lightening though," Luke says with a laugh.
"Although, yeah. Key can't know things that are meant as secrets. I am unsure of Jack. He's blunt but honest," Luke says.

"I absolutely trust Jack with my life, with all of our lives. I also don't believe he would permanently hold anything we do against us as long as it doesn't harm the group." She winces a little."I am not so sure if he can alter the facts as much as I grew up around... or as much as your goddess approves of." She gives Luke a smile, indicating that isn't a bad thing, just not useful sometimes. RABBIT

"They are not altered facts, they are saved lives. Intent matters," Luke laughs. "Are we waiting for breakfast, or do you wish to go find a cafe?"

Rabbit sits up on Luke, her hair spilling down her shoulders. With a lazy smile she looks up and cocks her head to the side listening to the noises outside their room, "It will make me sound weird, but I am happy doing either of those as long as you are there with me."
She looks down at Luke."I wanted to ask about some of the things you said about me. Can I assume we are more than a booty call? We were interrupted so much I wasn't sure what you were thinking. If that is all you want though, please just let me know straight up." RABBIT

Luke gives Rabbit a look, and says, "This is a discussion about our wants, and I would be happy to be more than just physical. I can't promise monogamy though. I will try to be considerate of your feelings on the issue, but I've found that is a sticking point for a lot of men and women."

A smirk crosses Rabbit's face, "Monogamy in itself is not an issue for me, I have never been monogamous before. I think I may get a little jealous over time spent with others, but I don't have a problem with genitals touching... just don't bring home any diseases to me."
She smiles broadly at Luke."Good thing I am dating someone who has an in with healing spells, also sometimes more than 2 and sex is a lot of fun so I am not against the idea of participating with you, if that was something you were interested in."
She seems uncertain."I will try and work on my relationship skills. I haven't ever actually seen someone romantically since I was 16."

"Yes. I am a healer, and am usually able to take care of such things for others. . . . " Luke says as he considers. "You are always welcome to join me, but my only other partner is an elf that isn't into women, and I only spend time with him when I'm here."
His smile softens, "We will take the relationship side of things slow, since it's been that long for you. Just tell me what you are thinking, and how you feel about things, and we can work with that, okay?" He strokes her hair gently. He had seen her memories, and knew what she'd been through. It was more appropriate to let her speak about them when she was ready, because his glimpses were just the raw memories, not how they effected her or made her feel now.

Rabbit's face softens at Luke's touch, , "Talking about my feelings is new. That doesn't happen back home, or in my older line of work. Sobhan tried sometimes, but I think he was worried about me losing my control so he didn't try too often."
A look of vulnerability crosses her face as she hesitates. An obvious war of thoughts in her head as she braces herself."I want this. I truly want this more than anything I have been near in my life. You make me feel warm, accepted and cared for. When I see you I feel excited and I want to make you safe, and I want you to smile."
"But I am also scared... and now I don't know if I am talking too much. I am too much maintenance..." She looks away frustrated.

Nestrim walks up to the door, hesitated momentarily listening to make sure he isn’t interrupting anything loud. He then steps up and knocks on the door. He then steps back so as not to look of someone opens the door.

Luke pulls the small elf into his arms and says, “ I want this too. I haven’t had a lot of luck for long term relationships because of my wandering ways. I enjoy being with you. Thank you for giving me this chance.”
As the sound of the knock interrupts the couple, Luke gives Rabbit an amused look. He gets out of bed and wraps something near at hand around his waist before answering the door.
“Yes?” Luke says as he opens the door with one hand while keeping whatever he wrapped around his waist up with the other.

Rabbit melts into Luke’s arms. Her face a lesson in joy. She murmurs quietly to the tiefling about attractive he is until the knock comes. Her eyes narrow in the look of an angry drow as her attention drifts towards the door. Her attention does go back to Luke as he stands, a look of appreciation flits across her face.
She he sits up, covers her lower half but doesn’t bother with her top. Disappointment and annoyance war in her voice as she says Sadly I am sure that isn’t room service."

Nesterim gives the Tiefling a large smile when the door opens, along with an appreciative wink... until his attention gazes past Luke to the bed and he sees the angry drow sitting there, a long blade too close to her hand for his comfort with that look on her face.
“I apologize Luke”, he says with some trepidation. “I didn’t realize you and Rabbit were together fully and spending time.”
He looks away, “I was just trying to come by and visit and maybe talk to you about some politics” He looks over at Rabbit and nods, “Actially I want to talk to Rabbit as well so maybe this is fortuitous”. He gives Luke a charming smile.
