☕ for our muses to have coffee together

BE MY VALENTINE! || Open (it's still Febraury)

The liquid instantly turned cold once her hands reached the mug, not that it would make anything different for her mouth once she started drinking it, the taste was totally isolated from the temperature. It was... odd to visit a place like this out of nowhere, Frost needs to keep her powers to a minimum and avoid attracting anyone too curious to start asking. Looks over at Wanda, it was her idea to come here, at least the dimmed lights and the less-than-invasive sound of other customers don't seem to be enough to make Frost worry. "It's been a while since I've been to a coffee shop." She mentions while looking down at a pair of scones before her. "More like... years... I forgot how quiet these places are."

🍫 to give my muse a box of chocolates

-Rain

BE MY VALENTINE! || Open (it's still Febraury)

The sunset graces them with the softest breeze ever, dancing through the tall grass that gave them some kind of useful privacy, being able to listen to the river not so far away from them. This could be considered a date, perhaps, but she doesn't like to use that word deliberately every time they spend time together out of the humble house, however, they had their fair share of food in a basket, and she was wearing a long dress for the sake of comfort, not a usual view from her part. Frost is quite distracted in the calmness of the moment but her attention goes back to Rain, mostly at what he has left by her side. A long wooden box with some intricate designs on the top of it, felt like an exaggeration but wouldn't lie that it was pretty enough to stare at. Opened it carefully, all this time this was supposed to be a box of chocolates, now, she had never tried these ones before. "I'm not thinking about eating these by myself." After taking one, she pushed with her finger the box in his direction, trying the chocolate she picked from it and being surprised by the familiarity of the taste, but with a twist, it had some kind of jelly in the inside of a fruit she never had before, something like cherry with orange, and couldn't speak while she tried to remember what it reminded her of.

[glidasclheriis]

One wrong move, one single crack in any sacred object, or the disturbance of the order in the temple and she knows very well what kind of consequences that could have on her. Disgrace will fall over her name and the disapproval of the Grandmaster will be unmeasurable, so allowing Johnny and his crew could have terrible consequences. Frost's annoyance is stuck behind her almost emotionless expression, piercing through the eyes of each crew member as they walk in, but the muscles of her forehead that have been forcing a frown for quite some time start to hurt, she's been masking her discomfort unsuccessfully.

Your frostiness.

Did she hear that word right? It breaks her facade and changes her face with an expression of disgust, one that is more likely to resemble tasting something flavorless. The word repeats itself twice in her mind, trying to shake it off her brain like a bug that is stuck inside of her ear. Tries to contain a scream between her lips, only letting out a groan. Terrible joke, terrible. Once everyone is inside, is time to be the guide through the ancient building, one she has gotten used to. "I'm his closest apprentice, he keeps me under his wing due to my high potential, and I'll be second in command one day, after all, there's a free space that someone will fill, and I'll be the one to stand there." Her tone hides the real desire to become like him one day, that day is too far in the future right now. "Where do you wish to start filming? I hope you didn't come here all the way from Hollywood without a script."

     Unlike what most took him for,   Johnny wasn't as dense or foolish as he was perceived.   He was simply   ...   open,   and perhaps too energetic   &.   extravagant for anyone's liking.   It would seem the major bunch of Liu Kang's allies were the grim sort,   none that were as stiff as the Lin Kuei however,   he feels as though he had been bound by a steel rope every time he's in the company of one,   but he doesn't allow it to limit him in any way,   and proceeds to be himself,   intentionally more obnoxious if it were to get under Bi-Han's skin.   A stubborn attitude of his he's sure to limit around his apprentice,   for she had no reason to endure Johnny Cage at his max level of annoyance.   No,   he kind of liked her,   as unfriendly as her gaze and expression towards him seemed to be,   she was alright in his book.

       ❛❛   Hmm,   more or less.   ❜❜        he answered with a thoughtful hum.   Liu Kang had given him the okey to make movies for the public to learn about the realms beyond,   as for the details regarding filming sites and what not those were all Johnny's design,   she needn't know that of course.   Smile widens to a grin at her apparent irritation,   finally giving way into acceptance,   the heavy doors slowly swung open with the expected noise of stone dragging across the ground.   Johnny heeded her warnings   &.   Instructions with a proper salute.        ❛❛   Yes,   your frostiness.   ❜❜        as sweet of a revenge it would be break something in return,   he'd extend the same courtesy she offered in welcoming his crew.   Frankly,   he thought he'd have to bargain his way into it a lot more.   There are no complaints on his part as he's quick to join and walk beside her as the crew trailed after.        ❛❛   So what are you like Bi-Han's apprentice ?   Second in command ?   Actually,   when did you join ?   ❜❜

[glidasclheriis]

Would she need to kill her Scorpion? Only if it meant some kind of special necessity to climb the ladder and make herself the new Grandmaster, the idea come and goes in her mind, it means so much responsibility but erasing Bi-Han would probably create another enemy, but, isn't the enemy of another a friend? That would be decided later, but one thing is certain, Bi-Han is not prepared to be a Grandmaster, and it seems this repeats itself repeatedly in other timelines. "If yours isn't Scorpion... then who is your Scorpion?" Maybe it might be someone she doesn't know a thing about for sure, why is she making this useless question is just for the sake of curiosity. "Now, let's not get ahead of ourselves, there's a new clan in my timeline who also wants to defeat Bi-Han, since my Scorpion funded it along with his brother, but they don't represent a direct threat to me." Not for now, not at least. "I won't drop someone else's blood just because, not out of a whim, but Bi-Han surely needs to be erased, could mean a threat to the entire timeline if he keeps siding with Shang Tsung, but I'm not sure how dangerous he can be on his own." Tries to refocus her plan, knowing damn well that the other Frost has other ideas, more obscure than her own.

"His bastard little brother." Frost repeats herself for emphasis. If there's one person she would go through all of time to personally erase, it would be Kuai Liang, without a doubt. "He's Scorpion?" That would almost raise too many questions... if it weren't for the fact that Kuai Liang somehow being Scorpion means that she gets to kill the two of them as if they were one. All of a sudden that makes this strange change all the worth it. As for Smoke... Frost doesn't know that name. Not as well as she does the others, actually. In all likelihood, it was the name of someone already dead in her era. No real loss there. "Finally. We can agree on something." Bi-Han needs to go. There's no question about that. What Frost leaves out, however, is the reasoning for why she appears to finally agree with her counterpart. This other Frost wants to get rid of Bi-Han to become who she wants to be. The cyborg, conversely, seeks to steal his power. To usurp him and, when the time is right, kill Shang Tsung too. Sure, she'll be doing the right thing when all is said and done. But Frost is only doing this for herself. Not because Bi-Han needs to be removed from the picture. After him... Kuai Liang is next.

It was hard to believe that this woman by her side was once a demonic being that only a few old folk tales could be so close to what she truly once was, it amazed Frost how Ashrah left behind that inhuman form. Powerful, dangerous and beautiful, but all of this still remains in her actual form. Frost knows her limits and a demon of that type could kill her easily, she's glad that this is what she got to encounter.

"Ten sisters?" The cryomancer repeats those words surprised by it, ten other demons that would cleanse any territory without mercy, the thought of it freezes the words in her tongue. Never in her life could have imagined that demons like those could be real, or even appear here at any moment and wipe out the life before their eyes. "Maybe I could capture one of your sisters, if they are as ruthless as you say they are, but I haven't lived too much on this earth to risk myself to that... but I could try." It could be a suicide mission, but if 2 were defeated already, then that means they aren't completely immortal.

ೄྀ࿐ ˊˎ- Ashrah tries to smile, a firm stretched line, and dips her head. Her true image...the demon underneath the purity that had cleansed her...it was not a lovely sight. ❝ I was...quite different as a demon, rougher and devoid of emotion. Perhaps an exact opposite of how I appear to be now. My complexion matched the color of my eyes. My wings were spiked and laced with lethal poison. I had magnificent horns and talons like blades. A walking image of hell's fury. I moved in shadow, thrived in the eternal night. The shadows called to me...they welcomed me... ❞

Shaking her head, Ashrah brought herself clarity like a splash of cool water. ❝ I would commend you if you managed to capture and contain any of my ten sisters, ❞ a wince pulled at her features--there were only eight remaining sisters left now, ❝ they are ruthless, the strongest in the hierarchy of darkness. They only ask questions post mortem and they know nothing of the word mercy. They are the last demons you would ever want to encounter. ❞

[glidasclheriis]

Why is she scoffing at her? Frost still finds traces of her personality in the other one, she would only scoff when something sounds too ridiculous to be true, wasn't it like that in her timeline too? Her gut feeling tells her that whatever happened to the Lin Kuei in the history from where this Frost comes from, it was different than her own, and it just only started to see the night coming. "Do you mean Kuai Liang?" Bastard is an amusing word to call him, but for Frost, that is just a name with a story that she doesn't completely know. "He's a pyromancer, goes by the name of Scorpion, not very fitting considering his, could say, kind personality, I expected a more raging warrior behind the name, but he is simply everything that Bi-Han is not, same story with Smoke." If there are other cryomancers in her era, that's not something she might know about, the knowledge of it is still too fresh in her mind. "I don't have too many options now, but Bi-Han had the great idea of siding with a sorcerer, pulling from the strings, convincing to change how the Lin Kuei is to gain more power and such... I was supposed to be a warrior, not the servant of a sorcerer, so for that, Bi-Han must be erased from the map." She snaps her fingers with a certain hunger behind her white eyes. "Reclaim my new path in life, gain my lost autonomy, he is an unfit leader after all, and the loss of his brothers has only shown me that he is capable of breaking easily."

"A teacher in him? Of all people?" Frost scoffs, resting a hand on her hip. Even for as much as she despises Kuai Liang, she'd be one of the first to admit that he makes for an infinitely better teacher than Bi-Han ever could. Speaking of the bastard... "What do you mean Bi-Han is the only cryomancer of your era? What about his bastard little brother? Why isn't he a cryomancer?" Liu Kang's new timeline sounds worse and worse by the minute. Maybe it might be time to put deicide on the list of things to do. Set everything right while also making sure Frost has all the power she could ever want. "What's wrong with what you could be?"

[glidasclheriis]

"You seem to have experience in that area, or at least, the impression of knowing too much." In her youthful heart, love is more of a deadly trap that could consume her, or simply a distraction, there's no greys in her mind, and in the end, is another type of curse.

@glidasclheriis || ᶠʳᵒˢᵗ (ᶜᵒⁿᵗ.)

"That's the thing about love, my dear. It's a tricky matter, and can turn into an obsession." Love was a tricky matter when it filled the hearts of people. It can be a beautiful or an ugly thing to watch play out.

//Hiii... I know it's been a while, and sorry for disappearing without saying a word. No, I haven't left the rpc completely, I just got violently attacked by something called ADHD (if you know me, this thing has caused me more turmoil through the years than anything else), so I'll try to do some drafts, I hope I can finish the other blogs without being mentally interrupted.

I hope everyone has been doing fine during my absence and I'm really sorry for vanishing, again, my focus changes sometimes and is like really annoying, not just when it comes to my hobbies and stuff I love doing, but also with everyday stuff.

[glidasclheriis]

She would have slapped his face for laughing at how afraid she was of the possibility of making him unconscious, or worse, but this idea fades at the moment he takes her arm and pulls her down. She pulled the blanket over their bodies, knowing he would start feeling colder without it, she had a few minutes before he decides it's enough. But Frost feels tired as well, now that her mind is clearer and can think right, realizing now of how Rain was holding her, as if it didn't matter how cold her body felt, her cheek against his chest. "Apologies accepted." She says before sighing deeply, reaching one of his hands and removing it from her body, not because she felt uncomfortable, but her intentions was just a mindless demonstration of appreciation, tangling her fingers with his. "Just... let me know when you feel too cold, and I'll lay down next to you."

Rain starts to laugh a bit though he know he shouldn't seeing how stressed and worried Frost was at the moment. He grabs her by arm and pulls her down on top of him, wrapping both arms around her in a tight embrace. "I'm fine...if I didn't trust you enough I would have pushed your hand away from my neck instantly. I got over stimulated is all. Enjoyed it a little to much." And that what he assumed happen. His body just hit with alot that he just couldn't stay conscious through it. Now he just tired, drained and wanting to relax. "You can lay on me for a bit..." their new bed has to be best gift since it kept him warm regardless of how cold Frost body was against his own. "My apologies for giving you a scare."

[glidasclheriis]

"Thanks gods, I thought I killed you for a moment." She was sweating from the sudden stress, caressing his cheek with her thumb while trying to bring him back. "Yes, you did just pass out, I think I choked you too hard, or something, what if I killed you? I'm so sorry." Frost might have gone too far with something, might have been the strength of her grip or her rhythm, but something had gone wrong. "I'm sorry, I think I got overboard."

At first Rain doesn't respond, his breathing labored as if he was asleep. Feeling a cold touch against his cheek makes him stir, brows furrowed as his blissful sleep was interrupted. He opens his eyes to look up at Frost, confused then realization. "By the gods did I just pass out?" And if so that would be the first time he's ever passed out from an orgasm.

[glidasclheriis]

Bliss spread through her body like fireworks from the depths of her body, releasing Rain's neck from her hold finally as the ice spread through the arms, covering her skin with patterns and crystals over her knuckles. It felt divine somehow, it sent her mind directly to Cloud Ninth, her moans became grunts as she felt his nails digging into her skin, the pain from it was ignored during her orgasm. The mind is clear, almost silent even, she needed a moment to breathe and recover from all that. Frost looked down at Rain, he seemed peaceful as if he had fallen asleep, eyes closed, almost unresponsive. "Rain?" She pressed her hand against his cheek, shaking his head lightly, not too much since that could backfire. "Hey... Rain? Are you alive?... Please respond to me."

Her intention was to remove her hand from his chest at some point, but it surprised Frost how her hand got taken directly to Rain's neck, it took him some times to decided, but it did surprise her how confidently he seemed to do such thing, maybe a death wish? No it couldn't be that. Even when her mind is simply losing itself with every minute that passes, she still has some autonomy over herself left to control both her cold and the grasp around his neck. Could feel how his heart starts beating erratic, perhaps from the excitement, the air entering his lungs and his heart brat, all under her palm. Suddenly her mind is clear and stares down at him, looking down at his beautiful and deep brown eyes. "I want you..." Frost manages to say while pressing his neck with her hand, feeling how her pleasure was building up more and more, fearing that it might reach her soon.

[glidasclheriis]

Her intentions are not to hurt him in the process of everything, despite her clouded vision and growing physical pleasure that's building with each one of their moves, Frost is still trying to be careful, even when she's pressing his neck in the right spots, enough to make him feel lightweight at least. Through the creaking of the bed and the rhythmical sound of their skins against each other along with their moans, she manages to hear his plea for something, it wasn't a curse but a word that belonged to his native tongue, unsure of what kind of demand could be, she shook her head from side to side, but it was clear when he rose his hips from the bed, implying that she should go faster, and so she did, but the ice patterns were starting to timidly appear on her hands, it was like an itch, holding it as much as she could, not until he does it first.
