Jacen Silvermoon: ::grumbles:: No nighty nite for me I see..bah ::takes another long swig::

Tiph Nightshade: aww don't feel bad Jacen

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks up:: Me?

Tiph Nightshade: ::she tiredly ran a gloved hand over the handle of one masamune::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::glances up only half hearing her:: Yeah..

Tiph Nightshade: ::she wandered to her hammock and flopped tiredly down::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks to his already half empty bottle:: Barkeep, I may need another shortly!

Tiph Nightshade: ::she closed her glowing eyes slowly and attempted to calm herself::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::watches tiph slowly. a look of disdain crossing his face:: What would you know of feeling bad anyway Tiph? ::grumbles:: You've got your dear Darrian to turn to whenever you need. ::snorts in disgust and takes another drink from the bottle::

Tiph Nightshade: ::She snapped her eyes open and peered over at Jacen incredulously::

Tiph Nightshade: do you even know what the hell you're talking about?

Tiph Nightshade: cuz i don't think you do

Jacen Silvermoon: ::shakes his head distractedly:: No..no I probably don't..

Tiph Nightshade: you don't know me so don't judge my situation

Tiph Nightshade: ::She growled softly, muttered something about mortals, and turned to face the wall and brood::

Jacen Silvermoon: Ha! What, praytell, could POSSIBLY be so horrible about your seemingly perfect life. You have much to be grateful for if you did not notice dear Tiph

Tiph Nightshade: if you are comparing my life, which you do NOT understand, i guarantee you, with yours, then you have my apologies

Tiph Nightshade: but that is not my fault, nor are any problems you have; so don't take it out on me if your life sucks

Jacen Silvermoon: ::laughs again, taking another drink from his ale:: I never claimed to be comparing your life to my own dear sweet Tiph. ::grumbles and turns away from Tiph:: Forget it...just forget it

Tiph Nightshade: ::then faced the wall again, as if she preferred it's quiet company to anything or anyone else's::

Tiph Nightshade: hehe another proof that you don't know me

Tiph Nightshade: i am far from dear or sweet

Jacen Silvermoon: ::turns back to Tiph the faint glimspes of a smile on his face:: I apologize, perhaps I did not make my sarcasm noticeible enough? ::grumbles:: Again, I ask you, what would you know of loneliness? You of all people..you who has Darrian now.. ::trails off again, lost in his own words::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::finishes off his bottle of ale and looks for the second one Mantara placed somewhere::

Tiph Nightshade: ::she rolled over slowly and sat up to look across the room at the present annoyance; her glowing prussian alien orbs angry and bitter; her tone is flat and very cold:: do not be jealous of me boy, for you do not know what i do or do not have

Jacen Silvermoon: ::takes the bottle eagerly and uncorks it, drinking from it's contents greedily::

Tiph Nightshade: yeah get yourself good and drunk, that'll make you feel loads better ::we could also play the sarcasm game::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::turns back to face Tiph, slightly amused by it all:: Hrumph, I'll tell you one thing you DO have...one thing that's annoyingly plain for us all. Dear sweet Darrian. Your love, your protector, your mate. It's frighteningly obvious what you do have in that regard, and right now...it disgusts me

Jacen Silvermoon: ::nods his thanks to Mantara and takes another long swig from the bottle::

Tiph Nightshade: ::she stood up calmly and took a few determined steps forward, throwing her gossamer chestnut locks over her shoulder as if they were the bane of her existence; her voice colder still::and it disgusts me when you are jealous of me; as if you couldn't find someone for yourself if you tried. god. mortals... ::she snarled that hated word::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::jumps to his feet angrily, knocking aside his chair:: Yes that's right! Right you are fair Tiph!! I AM jealous! Not of you, but of what you have at least! I'm jealous to the point that it just sickens me!! And again you are right, mortal I am. As if that fact, too, is not firghteningly painful enough!! Oft times I am reminded of the company I keep at these bars!

Tiph Nightshade: and people wonder why i am not *nice*, "why is Tiph such a bitch?" ::she laughed bitterly:: it is simply because nearly everyone i meet in this damned place acts as if they were lacking the possession of a functioning brain. whenever i try to show some compassion, it comes back around to blow up in my face. so maybe i shouldn't even bother. after all it is painfully obviously pointless ::she stared into him with cool contempt::

Jacen Silvermoon: What with ::frownly fiercly as he drinks deeply from his ale:: vampires, demons, blah blah the list goes on...to HELL with you all.

Tiph Nightshade: i am none of those ::she smirked:: but to hell i will go at any rate, but not because of anything you have said or done, fool

Jacen Silvermoon: I do not call you a bitch, but without compassion you surly are! Never have you "graced" me with any of this compassion you claim to have. Aye, to hell you will go. I'll be there before you, I guarantee it. Remember...I'm ::snorts:: merely mortal after all

Tiph Nightshade: i know it, and that is my sole source of comfort, mortal, you will be there long before me

Tiph Nightshade: i only bother to show compassion to those who deserve it

Jacen Silvermoon: As if you have any right to decide who desereves compassion and who does not

Tiph Nightshade: i have the right to my own opinion

Tiph Nightshade: as do even ::she sneered:: mortals

Tiph Nightshade: you would damn all vampires to hell? now that surprises me ::a curious gleam in her glowing ice blue eyes:: perhaps my good friend Nich was wrong about you

Jacen Silvermoon: ::sighes and closes his eyes, his temples throbbing loudly in his skull, the affects of his drink starting to kick in:: Are we finished with our tiff yet? I'm quite aware how much lower I am to you becuase I am a mere mortal, ya de ya de ya...Yes yes, once again it's clear to me, how I am mere nothing and everyone else reigns supreme. ::glances up suddenly at the mention of Nich's name::

Jacen Silvermoon: :;opens his mouth to retort, his expression one of anger once more, but he sighes and merely remains quiet::

Tiph Nightshade: your idiocy foolishness and quickness to judge that which you do not understand is what lost you all sympathy you ever had coming from me. not the fact that you are a mortal

Tiph Nightshade: but that didn't help much

Jacen Silvermoon: ::the anger leaving him once more, he rubs his temples slowly and looks wearily to the floor::No..forgive me..I meant not all I said. I would not damn ALL vampires like I said. Not Nich, and not even you nor Darrian for that matter...I am merely...distressed..as always

Tiph Nightshade: my poor dear Nich was gravely wrong ::she sadly shook her head::

Tiph Nightshade: i am not a vampire, though nearly all my friends are

Tiph Nightshade: not that it should matter much

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks up at her, finding this strangely famaliar to the other night:: I am..obviously drunk sadly. And in my stuppor I fear I have once again blown up at someone where I had no place to.

Tiph Nightshade: it matters very little who you snap at, as far as i am concerned

Tiph Nightshade: but there are those who think differently; whether that is wise or foolish of them, is another story

Jacen Silvermoon: Aye, say what you will of me to your friend Nich. I've already lost her to me anyway, or so it would seem...::looks up at her questioningly:: What are you saying? I'm sorry..my head..is not allowing me to think as clearly as I normally would..

Tiph Nightshade: what do you mean you've lost her to you?

Jacen Silvermoon: ::shrugs casually, trying to appear calm though the look of pain and hurt in his eyes clearing telling otherwise:: I mean just that. I've already lost her anyway, why would she desire even the presence of a ::sneers:: mere mortal when she could have so much more. You said it yourself, I am but a wretch

Tiph Nightshade: ::she looked curiously at him:: listen. why she feels how she does is beyond me, but she deserves what she desires, after all, she has had nothing but three hundred years of solitude and pain... the bottom line is, she cares for you, for whatever reason, i do not pretend to understand them...

Tiph Nightshade: ::she walked a few more steps forward, beginning to allow herself to show some genuine emotion as she worried over the well being of her friend vampiress:: look at me and mark my words. i swear to god, if you hurt her, i'll ::she paused and calmed slightly:: i will not be pleased

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks to Tiph, hurt registering in his eyes, as though her remark offended him:: I--::stammars, slightly taken aback:: I would never hurt Nich. EVER...

Tiph Nightshade: good because if you did and i found out, that would be your end

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks to Tiph, speechless:: I--I wouldn't dream of hurting her... ::pauses, too confused from all of the day's events to even think clearly anymore it would seem::

Tiph Nightshade: ::she may be cold, heartless even, around anyone but Darrian for the most part, but she had learned through the trials and strife of life that true friends were hard to come by and must be carefully cared for and that precious friendship meticulously maintained; thus her almost feverish devotion to her beloved vampiress::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks at Tiph, thinking over her words:: She...cares for me? ::obviously confused by the statement::

Tiph Nightshade: ::she sighed and stepped closely to him:: don't you understand yet?

Tiph Nightshade: she loves you ::and she turned away::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::leans back, leaning heavily on the table. A look of shocked surprise flashing into his jade green eyes:: It's just that... ::stammars and looks at the back of her head:: All of these years now...after the loss of my parents. I've spent all these years, alone..wandering, searching for signs of them..never allowing myself to grow bonds with any other person...

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks to the floor, sadly:: You have no idea....to be alone like this for so many years now...

Tiph Nightshade: then pity my poor friend Nich ::She was truly saddened to hear this:: she was alone three hundred years, i know what lonliness is but not to the extent that she does...

Tiph Nightshade: do you ever stop to think about what it could possibly be like to live the life of a vampire? to start out as another human, perfectly normal, and then all of a sudden, to have your world thrown into havok, thrown upside down, and to be forced to live for eternity, with the curse of immortality, watching everyone and everything you love die around you, being forced to live on and helpless to stop it from all being taken away from you? my god what she has gone through....

Tiph Nightshade: ::her anger has all but melted away by this point and all she feels is heartache for her friend::

Jacen Silvermoon: I don't know how to reach to Nich though, Tiph. Don't you see? I don't understand any of this. ::waves his hand about vaguely:: Love and relationships. I've never understood any of it. I thought for sure, after the other night.. ::trails off, her words again sinking into him:: You're right...of course you're right again. I never paused to think of it like that.

Jacen Silvermoon: Well, I suppose I did once, but never to this extent..::trails off once more, his head still bowed:: I've been acting like nothing but a foolish little boy..

Tiph Nightshade: when she told me, i had never seen her happier... she was practically glowing...::she laughed:: and can you imagine a vampire glowing... ::She smiled for a long moment, then turned her eyes to him in desperation:: don't hurt her, Jacen, i'm begging you...

Jacen Silvermoon: ::smiles lightly, a soft look of amusement crossing his face. Imagine, a glowing vampire..perhaps there was still hope for this poor wretch yet. Looks deep into her eyes, returning her powerful gaze:: I assure you, dear Tiph, I would NEVER hurt Nich in ANY way. I would prevent all harm from ever befalling her if I had the power to do so...

Tiph Nightshade: ::she laughed softly, amusedly:: physically she is more than capable of taking care of herself, but emotionally...::she trailed off::

Tiph Nightshade: that is where she is vulnerable

Jacen Silvermoon: ::nods somberly, his gaze finding her's again:: Tiph, please forgive me for my explosion earlier. I did not mean such harsh words. You and Darrian, I consider you both friends, you must know that. I did not mean anything that would jeopordize that friendship...I have few friends around these parts as is...

Tiph Nightshade: think nothing of it, and i shall consider you my friend as well, as long as Nich is happy...

Jacen Silvermoon: ::smiles and nods briefly:: Friends in these parts, basically being anyone who doesn't attack or try to kill you on sight..aye indeed, I have few friends as it is. I would be honored to add Tiph and Darrian Nightshade to the list of friend's I DO have though..

Tiph Nightshade: ::She walked weakly back to her hammock and flopped down tiredly, feeling the effects of her outburst::

Tiph Nightshade: well Nich cares for you something vicious ::She laughed hearing her own choice of words:: so you can't be all bad

Jacen Silvermoon: ::smiles and shurgs:: I can be a good ally and an even better friend. You all will see sooner or later I'm sure..

Tiph Nightshade: treat her well and we will get along just fine

Jacen Silvermoon: ::nods in agreement:: Of course, of course...we'll get along just fine I'm sure. I just--::shakes his head, still somewhat shocked by it all:: I just had no idea that Nich...

Jacen Silvermoon: ::he shakes his head slowly, still slightly confused. He releases a small sigh and wearliy runs his hand slowly through his hair, trying to calm himself after all that transpired::

Tiph Nightshade: hehe, well let me just put it this way... when she drank you the other day, had it been anyone else, that hand on her thigh bit woulda been met with a barrel of her gun to your gut

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks to Tiph, surprise clearly registering in his jade green eyes. His face flushing a deep crimson:: She..she told you about the...about my... ::his eyes still wide he can offer no other words and merely shakes his head slowly, his mouth hanging open slightly::

Tiph Nightshade: she told me everything ::she said softly with a slight grin:: actually she said you were the best she ever had ::she grinned, knowing that sounded so very wrong::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::chuckles softly, knowing that sounded so very wrong as well::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks at Tiph curiously:: She told you...........everything?? ::his voice soft, almost meek::

Tiph Nightshade: she enjoyed you so much, in fact, that she refuses to drink anyone else... she hasn't eaten in quite a while, i would imagine that she has weakened substantially...

Tiph Nightshade: yes everything Jacen

Tiph Nightshade: we are very close

Tiph Nightshade: i tried to convince her to drink me but oh no, my bloods not good enough for her... and i'm not a man so of course i will not do...::she sneered a bit::

Tiph Nightshade: Darrian doesn't think i'm all that bad

Tiph Nightshade: ::smirk::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::glances about nervously, his eyes trying not to meet her's as he blushes once more:: Ahem, yes, everything..a heh..well, um that was the first time I had ever been...um..err.. a heh, um..fed upon and all you see. That would explain it. Mmmhmm.... Cause it was my first time...that's all

Tiph Nightshade: LOL you were a vamp virgin how cute... and she popped your....... heeheehee ::she held her sides and laughed hard::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks at her, only slightly amused:: Har har...laugh as you see fit dearest Tiph. ::grins despite of himself, his reddish hue never leaving his face::

Tiph Nightshade: ::she wiped away tears of laughter:: i don't mean to make fun of you, it's just...::she trailed off and laughed some more::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::frowns slightly at the riddicule but takes the abuse quietly, nodding ever so slowly to himself::

Tiph Nightshade: ((sorry peeps but you're all gettin ::clicked unless your names Jacen Silversomething or other ::smirks:: ))

Jacen Silvermoon: ((::clicks all those but the infamous Tiph Nightblahblahblah::))

Jacen Silvermoon: You're not ::sneers:: mortal, you're not a vampire, clearly not demon, at least none I am schooled about...what ARE you?

Tiph Nightshade: oie this is a long explanation

Tiph Nightshade: here goes

Jacen Silvermoon: ::settles in::

Tiph Nightshade: i am a human alien hybrid, enfused with the cells of the creature Jenova and exposed to dangerous levels of Mako radiation before i was born, thus my anatomy was altered, my strength greatly increased, and because of the Jenova cells i healed incredibly fast... and i ceased to be a mere human, as i was genetically engineered to be the ultimate soldier

Tiph Nightshade: whew

Tiph Nightshade: ::takes a breath::

Jacen Silvermoon: Whew

Jacen Silvermoon: ::takes a breath::

Jacen Silvermoon: As for me

Jacen Silvermoon: ::takes a breath, preparing to rattle off the long story of his coming into exsistance::

Tiph Nightshade: ....

Jacen Silvermoon: I was born

Jacen Silvermoon: Whew

Tiph Nightshade: lol

Jacen Silvermoon: ::takes a breath::

Tiph Nightshade: i was...::her face falls::

Tiph Nightshade: maybe i'll tell you some other time...

Jacen Silvermoon: ::nods understaningly:: Of course Tiph

Tiph Nightshade: i've had too much thought about this matter today already

Jacen Silvermoon: ::smiles gently:: Agreed

Tiph Nightshade: but i will tell you one thing...

Tiph Nightshade: I was,

Jacen Silvermoon: Hmm?

Tiph Nightshade: a mistake

Tiph Nightshade: ::she closed her eyes, as if in great pain, though it was not physical::

Jacen Silvermoon: Think not of it as a mistake, but rather... a pleasant surprise. ::concerningly takes her hand and squeezes it gently, once, then releases her hand not wanting to unsettle her any::

Tiph Nightshade: no you don't understand...

Jacen Silvermoon: ::shakes his head:: No..I don't

Tiph Nightshade: but i will have to tell you some other time

Jacen Silvermoon: ::nods:: Certainly

Jacen Silvermoon: ::smiles smugly:: Heh, I don't even know if I was a mistake or not, but..as you said...that is a tale for another time

Tiph Nightshade: i just can't do this right now ::she moaned very softly and longed for her only source of strength, her husband::

Tiph Nightshade: another time, yes...

Jacen Silvermoon: ::nods slightly and sighed, his hands abesentmindedly running over the two scars left on his neck::

Tiph Nightshade: ::she ran a slightly trembling hand through her silken hazel tendrils and took in a calming breath, her alien eyes trapsing over Jacen as she pondered all that had taken place::

Jacen Silvermoon: ::stifles a yawn and looks apologeticaly to Tiph:: It's been a late, long day has it not?

Tiph Nightshade: oh god i can't even describe it...

Tiph Nightshade: and to think that if you hadn't....

Tiph Nightshade: heh

Tiph Nightshade: then you might not even know...

Jacen Silvermoon: ::looks at her curiously::

Tiph Nightshade: o_O i wonder if she'll be pissed at me for

Tiph Nightshade: uh oh...

Jacen Silvermoon: if I hadn't...not even know...

Tiph Nightshade: i have a big mouth...

Jacen Silvermoon: ::realizes:: OOhhh.....

Jacen Silvermoon: ::nods in agreement::
