♅ fourth

[themistress]

[It's Tuesday, Paradisa, and that means two things: the first is that The Four Seasons Room is in beach mode, and the second is that Mistress's dulcet tones are ringing through the journal. She seems genuinely pleased.]

This beach is marvelous. We don't have shores like this in my kingdom, where everything is bright and warm and pleasant. Even if one journeys to the ocean itself, the waters are rough and the beaches are rocky. Tell me, subjects, are places like this common in other worlds? Do people really live there?

Oh, and do feel free to join me here!

[Which is something you may or may not actually want. Because what does a woman whose normal attire consists of a string bikini wear to the beach?

The answer is nothing but some very artfully applied sand and shells. She has to match the room, of course.]

... There is a difference between that incident and what you want to do.

And I don't exactly monitor that person's sex life, lady. Seriously.

[themistress]

Of course I can't grow a cock, but beyond the actual instrument, I daresay I'd probably be much better.

But if you're really so shy, I'd be willing to work you up to that.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

... I really doubt that.

And what the hell do you mean work me up to it?

[themistress]

If there's anything I should never be doubted about, it's sex.

Oh, you think that your ass is my only interest? Oh, no no no, dear Washington. I can think of so many activities...

[dontpatr0nizeme]

... I'm sure.

I really have a feeling your interests won't be terribly pleasant for me. Could be wrong, but I doubt it.

[themistress]

On the contrary, I think you'd quite like all of it. You see, I've decided that you need nurturing more than punishment.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

...

What is that supposed to mean?

[themistress]

It means that my initial approach to you and most others here was wrong. But I've rectified this error.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

You are the most confusing person I've met here in a while.

[themistress]

I'll take that as a compliment.

Now come play with me. The beach is lovely, Washington.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

... It wasn't exactly meant as one.

You think I'm just going to come frolic on the beach with you?

[themistress]

Why not? I don't have anything here to frighten you with. It's warm and pleasant and soothing. And the castle seems happy to oblige drinks.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

...

Might not be so bad. An interesting distraction, considering how many people I've probably annoyed.

[themistress]

Well, I don't know anything about that, but you're free to come share.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

What the hell. I'll even leave the armor in my room this time.

[themistress]

Excellent! [Mistress seems absolutely pleased with this.] Wear something comfortable, it's very warm here.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

I will. Don't worry.

And trust me, I'm aware of that. Spent enough time trapped there with York.

[And have Washington showing up a bit later in swim trunks and a t-shirt.]

[themistress]

[Have a genuinely happy Mistress! Happy to see him out of that stupid armor. And she's bringing him a glass filled with something bright and slushy, with an umbrella for garnish.]

Here. It's very good to see you.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

[That gets a raised eyebrow as Washington accepts the drink.] It is? Or are you just saying that to get me off guard?

[themistress]

Why wouldn't it be? You're very paranoid -- what, exactly, do you think I want to do to you?

[dontpatr0nizeme]

Paranoia has served me well in the past... [Sipping the drink]

And hell if I know.

[themistress]

Well, I can assure that all of the things I want to do to you are nothing to be paranoid about. But that can all be dealt with later. Come sit down.

[She turns to head over to the exact kind of uselessly opulent cabana that you'd think she'd have put in, and takes a seat on one of the chaise lounges.

Let it never be said that Mistress is a poor decorator.]

[dontpatr0nizeme]

...

Fine. [No point in being stubborn right now, at least. Instead, he's taking a seat.] And why do you think I'm so interesting anyway?

[themistress]

The stubborn always catch my fancy.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

Really. Rather than the easier conquests I'm sure someone like you could find without trying?
