Wow. I have to admit, I never expected to really get to this point, nor did I expect that, at the two year mark, I’d have met and written with so many wonderful and talented people here, both within and out of DARP. I was hesitant at first, because I’d never played an OC/PC before. But you all have made my experience so enjoyable, and really helped me come out of my shell and a lot of my shyness earned from bad past fandom experiences.

Nanna is probably the most developed character I’ve played, not the mention the character I’ve had the longest, and I am honestly so honored that so many of you have enjoyed her. A lot of you have been here since the very start when she was 2-dimensional and janky in every possible way and all the way till now, and I thank you all for the patience and continual support you’ve given me thus far. 

So here’s to you guys, and all the fun we’ve had and, I hope, continue to have!

{♤};;— “Of course, the silly girl deserves it.” A soft chuckle follows closely after before she turns to set the wine glasses down on the table. As much as the woman adored Laika, she also wished that she could get along with people. Although, it was quite rare for the canine to take a liking to someone.

        She takes the bottle of wine and uncorks it, the loud ‘pop’ hung in the air before Ebony turns and returns to the glasses with the open bottle in hand, the dark wine filling the glasses, she glances over her shoulder at him with a smile and nods her head. “Oh yes— many places in fact, although it becomes exhausting at times, traveling so much. Paired with the long hours of boring meetings certainly don’t help either.” Were she not so paranoid of falling asleep, she most likely would have dozed off a bit during those meetings.

           ”Thankfully, the people I’ve met on those travels made them tolerable.”

    Laughter spills from parted lips as she sets the bottle on the table and picks up the two glasses now filled with wine. A moment as he speaks before she turns to face him and approaches him— the glass in her right hand offered out towards the elven man with a small crinkle in her brow at his words. Gaze flickers up to his when she asks.

            “Hopefully nothing too difficult then? Or dangerous?”

    Already just the t h o u g h t of him being in any sort of danger— Silver gaze drops from his, the rim of her glass swiftly brought to her lips to take a sip of the liquor. The rich flavor running over her tongue as she drinks it. Surely her worry over whatever it was that he had had to do was unnecessary. Fenris was a cautious man, and she knew that he was more than capable of taking care of himself. Even a blind man could see that.

                                       But still—                                                   she worried for him.

    Already she was wondering where this night would take them with their conversation. The glass is lowered from her lips as pallid countenance becomes pensive, bottom lip bitten gently in thought. A habit that she never seemed aware of when she lost herself in her mind. Quickly, she’s brought back out her her musings with a slight shake of her silver crown and corners of her lips upturned.

             ”Of course, you needn’t answer. You’re back now, that’s what matters.” A pause between words before she quickly adds. “For who else would join me and help me drink the night away?” Instantly after she speaks— cheeks flush. Had she made the moment more awkward than it need be?

                                                                              Perhaps a bit.

        He nods in response to her telling of work and travel---It i n t e r e s t e d the man for he seemed to live a life completely different than hers. She was called for meetings and had to come in contact with various people one after another while he lived a fairly cut-and-dried with no strings attached sort of life. They were worlds away when it came to lifestyle choices and yet there were moments like these where their paths would cross and they would both take a breather.

        "Despite whatever exhaustion it may cause, you always seem rather---at ease when you speak of your job. That is good to see." He is sure to note before he takes the glass from her and brings the glass rim to his lips, allowing a sip to flow into his mouth.

                          “Hopefully nothing too difficult then? Or dangerous?”

        Slowly he brings the cup down as his face twitches in response--- Difficult was rarely as much an issue as dangerous. No matter where the man tread did he find himself in danger's hands fighting off pursuers who sought the elf. To him he was always in danger though fighting off the danger was rarely too difficult. Still he could not find the right words to respond to the woman with, her worries were already in abundance without the addition of his own. No, he could not tell her of what he seen and did for her shoulders already held so much and he refused to make them heavier.

        Ebony's following words quickly pulled him out of his inner struggle only for him to allow a quiet chuckle to escape at the flushed cheeks before him. "That would cause a problem of some sort it seems. Am I to assume I am the only one to drink with you like this then?" A tease for truly he already knew the answer.

        Another sip of wine occurs before he finally meets her gaze directly, something he rarely did less it be necessary, to answer her earlier question. "I remain unharmed, you do not need to worry. I will always return for you." Just as quickly he looks away and takes another drink from his cup as though mentally toasting his own vow for nothing will keep him from finding his way back home.

                He was about to explain what he meant by interesting when he noticed a cat… Then he noticed another and then another one. 'Just how many does he have?'  “Well, we could start with the cats that you have.”

            "They are not mine." Short and simple he keeps it, eyes flicking to the few felines that had found their way into the room. Ellie often brought the strays she'd find to the mansion creating an almost haven for them despite Fenris' protests.                                                                                                    "Pay them no mind."

「♤」;;— Barbie senses tingle. 

                                    KENRIS IS NEARBY.

         A  W I L D  B A R B I E  A P P E A R S!

"Fenris, I believe we haven’t decorated walls for quite some time." 

     "Which could be blamed on your new title keeping you busy perhaps."

fugitivi ;

      “Fenris —        long time no see.~”

          "Quite some time---              You have kept yourself busy nonetheless I'm sure."

{♤};;— She glanced up at him before her gaze fell. Her throat tightened & she swallowed painfully before she stepped forward and w r a p p e d her arms around him & pressed her face into the crook of his neck.

      It is within a moment of seeing the absolute p a i n in her gaze that he feels her embrace tightening around him and her face pressed against his neck. He stiffens briefly before allowing the hand that once resided on the top of her head find its way to the back of it while his other arm awkwardly wraps around her lower back. He says nothing for words would be meaningless at this time unless she were the one to speak. Instead he settles on holding her like this---allowing her to take all the comfort he is able give over such a loss.
