Shadows in the Moonlight

Sam would have loved to stay in the water with Stevie for much longer, but the rain which rolled in put a rush on their plans. He climbed out as well, giving a worried look to the sky. The rain was light for the moment, and therefore bearable, but if it started to rain much harder, there was no way they would be able to keep moving on. Still, as he approached her, he kept an optimistic smile on his face. "Indeed, since you like it so much, maybe I should just stay like this all the time, then. It feels nice to have your eyes on me." He joked, returning her wink before turning his eyes to the sky once more, his expression turning more serious.

"I admit, I'm concerned about the rain though. If we're close to where I think we are, it's still going to take most of the day to get back to our car. If it starts raining much harder, we will have to find some place to take shelter, maybe look for a tree with a thick canopy to wait it out? It might not feel like it now, but if this turns to a downpour, we could freeze to death." He commented, his face showing he was concerned.

Sam's eyes once again fell to Stevie, to which the looming storm overhead seemed to take a backseat. If it was difficult for him not to stare before, it was impossible now. He had a hard time thinking of something to say, not that it would have mattered since she was now underwater, so he simply waded out into the river. It did indeed feel warm enough for a river, so he was not uncomfortable. He dove under the water as well and took a few moments to clean the blood from his body before looking once again to his girlfriend. He couldn't help but to stare, and it was fairly obvious he was doing so. He smiled, appreciating her beauty for a few moments before he had to return to the surface for air.

Swimming over to her, his expression showed that he was in a generally upbeat mood. "You know, I've said it before, but I believe I should say it again. You are incredibly beautiful, both in how you look, and who you are." He said with a smile before wrapping his arms around her neck and giving her a kiss.

Quick question, how based off the ship are we going? I would imagine it would be larger and contain more rooms & hallways, but would there still be that square balcony in the center that overlooked the mess hall on the lowest deck?

No, the two decks are separate. There are still halls and rooms. The crew quarters are in one or two large rooms on the upper deck. On the lower deck, there are also halls and rooms, with a large storage room near the stern.

Sure, go ahead. I'm not too concerned about his resistances, as I know of a few things that could give him a run for his money. This particular battle isn't meant to be especially difficult. The guards are not actual legionnaires, even if they have the armor, and our characters had a well planned ambush which gives them the element of surprise. However, I have some ideas in mind for things that will happen that will make full use of my knowledge of the lore. There are plenty of little known creatures, magic, and characters that pirates who explore the untamed waters of the Abeccean might find.

"Hmm, then we should hurry. I hope it doesn't start raining; I don't know what we will do if it does. It's not like there are any caves around here, the best we could do for shelter would be a tree, maybe one with a lot of leaves." Sam commented. His eyes quickly looked over her body once more before he took her hand and looked off to the west. "I...guess we should go."

Using the position of the sun to gain their bearings, the two walked along to the west, towards where Sam predicted the river would be. His gave kept passing back and forth between the sky, and Stevie. By this point, he no longer really felt embarrassed by his own state of dress, at least, so most of his discomfort came from worry about the weather. A heavy downpour could potentially cause them to freeze to death if they didn't seek shelter. Some of the trees had thick canopies, so they would help some, but it would still get pretty cold.

After about half an hour, it still had not started raining, but the clouds had rolled in and were dark overhead. Thankfully, Sam's fear about the situation was lessened slightly when he heard the unmistakable sound of flowing water nearby. He looked at Stevie with an overjoyed expression; if they knew where the river was, then it meant he would be able to find their way back. He practically ran towards the source of the sound, still holding tightly onto Stevie's hand. They crested a small hill, revealing the river before them in all its majesty. With a smile wide across his face, Sam turned to Stevie and gave her a hug, momentarily not caring about their state of dress. When he finally pulled away from her, he looked at her with a bright smile still on his face. "There it is!. We're going to get home. It might take a while, but we're getting home. Do you still want to take the chance to wash the blood off?" He asked, still somewhat concerned about the clouds above.

I find myself a bit concerned about his durability, but everything else seems fine. As long as blunt force and magic can deal appropriate harm, I accept him.

I should probably get to moving recently accepted characters to the accepted character list.

Sam looked down at Stevie, trying and failing to keep his gaze on her eyes. One thing he was now noticing about both of them was that they were significantly more muscular than before; perhaps one of the changes that went along with being a werewolf. If it weren't for how frightening it all was, he might have even been happy with it,.

Sam gave a slight chuckle. "I don't know if leaves will help us get home. I think it would be best just to not be seen. Besides, we would need string or something to tie it all together. I wish I had clothes in my car, but unfortunately, I didn't foresee it being an issue. But..." He began, letting out a deep breath. "...I can be mature about this. We have both been forced into this situation, and we will need to work together to get out of it. I mean, we have no reason to be embarrassed, right? I think you're attractive, you think I'm attractive, there is no reason to be ashamed. We can head west until we reach the river and wash ourselves off before heading south. Then, hopefully, we'll get to a place I recognize and we can get back to the car. From there, we'll just need to find a way to get back to our apartment without being seen." He said, trying to bring his mind into a mentality that would stop him from staring at Stevie constantly. No matter how much he wanted to.

I think it would be awesome to have all the friends. Have every student PC currently in the dining hall fighting as one group. I think that could work.

I would also propose a slight variation on how we normally write collabs. Normally, we each just submit a paragraph or two (perhaps more depending on the circumstance) explaining what our character did and thought, and that is fine. However, for fighting, I think it would be better to all write the same paragraph, essentially. We give an action, then have each of our characters responses to form a paragraph. I think it would make it more connected, with greater potential for cooperation between characters.

I think a collab between all students in the dining hall would be pretty epic, if done properly. Massive, for sure.

So I take it the last post was the one starting the big fight in the dining hall? Not quite sure how to approach this, though, since cooperation between students seems to be key, I think a collab would be appropriate.
