Romance Section - Lascivious resist - Will (Ded) - TN12: 4d6 16 Good grief! What is it with my constantly rolling really well on my self-control rolls? Not that I'm complaining...
Laena smirks. "You've been spoiled by your 'friend' believing their legs should spread like cheap honey. *My* body has value, meaning it has to be *earned*, and by more than a few pretty words." She frowns, and her voice turns serious. "And while I'm on the subject, I have no objection to what you did before committing to this course, but now you are committed, should you meet your 'friend', you have a choice - clothes on then, or balls off later, *when* I find out. You want me? I'll give you a chance. But you have to be ... dedicated." Deliberately using his own word back at him. Her intense gaze makes clear that she is not joking about her territoriality, though after a moment, a small smile quirks the edge of her mouth. "Plus, should you succeed, I want you nice and frustrated come the wedding night."
IC Balon is complaining, lol.
Balon had trouble suppressing a grin while she "lectured" him. As she talked about her body Balon instinctively looked it over. A valuable body indeed. He held up a finger in objection, "When I succeed." he playfully chided in Valyrian. Balon considered making a joke about her warning but wanted to let Laena know he was sincere, "From this moment forward the only woman I'll lay with is you." You ballsy sonofabitch.
She likewise switches back, and nods, slightly hesitantly. "I'll speak with her. ...But I should probably warn you, she is quick to anger and slow to forgive. It may not ... go entirely smoothly. I .. just ask you remember that she is important to me."
Back in the Common tongue, "I don't expect it to go smoothly. I expect her to antagonize me into slipping up. She'll want me to fail. I won't." he said emphatically. He stood up walking over to her chair offering a hand to help her up, "It looks like I have some work to do." He did a quick look around to make sure no one was looking before taking both of her hands in his and looking at them. "Dragon claws..." he chuckled as an idea popped into his head. He looked up to her neck, which gave him another idea, then her lips, which gave him an idea he wasn't going to follow through with, and finally those enchanting blue eyes. He stared at them, memorizing the color. He quickly raised her hands up and kissed them, caution be damned, "Until we meet again." Balon gave her a wink and a big smile.
After her response he made his way to leave. A few stops in Gardeton were in order.
