When the Big Girls Play~! [Visitation Day Plot! Completely Open!]

Ellistree had followed Nokosi and Kaya into hydroponics, and for the first time since arriving on board the Transmigration 9 did she feel at complete ease.

Not that she felt bad being around the odd vessel, but the lack of nature was uncomfortable for sure. The vast variety of flora and fauna in the place was an amazing breath of fresh air, and it was clear that the child of nature was at home in such environments. It almost looked as if her skin took on a beatiful glow as she sauntered off through the place, smiling and dancing amongst the trees, and creatures kept in Hydroponics.

The rather tall elf was trully in a state of bliss, and anyone who approached her might get a sudden hug, or a playful gesture depending on how they approached her. But granted a more hostile approach won't be shyed away from, after all, Ellistree was fiercer than most feral druids, and that was saying a lot. It could be balmed on the blood that coursed trough her veins, making her even more dominant and aggressive than normal.

[[OOC: Open post! Really! Anyone can join in, don't be shy, she won't bite (Much!). You're free to interact with anyone who's in the initial post (Ellistree, Nokosi, Kaya, Billy or Ronnae.

He wasn't surprised at her anger, really; he'd expected that. What he didn't expect was that he would laugh in response to her words, though the sound held little of the mirth he was known for.

[You are right...you are. But as you, yourself said, you are hard on me, so why wouldn't I be harder on myself?]

Nokosi relaxed in her arms, even though her body had been tense just a moment ago. He allowed his fingers to trail along her arm while the other tentatively touched the large, sticky red blotch matted in his hair.

[Can I be truthful with you, Ellistree?] He was going to be regardless of how she answered. [I have little care for any of these people, for their situations or what is to come of them. Perhaps in time my opinion will change if we befriend each other, but until then my chest remains free of much concern to their well-being.

[I have lived in the forests of Ashenvale and the surrounding woods for over 160 years, primarily alone. In all that time I did not tire, despite my conditions, views on the world and the impending war. I am not sure how long or little I have been aboard this ship but I am tired, Ellistree. There is little that keeps me from awakening with anxiousness in my being and I can a part of myself slowly curling up to hide, to die, I do not know...every day.It is worse for Fontaine. Being cut off like that makes him feel as if he's hollow inside. As if a part of him is nothing but a void.]

[But then I am reminded that there must be something, somewhere that feels some sympathy, or perhaps pity for me, because you showed up. And I feel...I felt good. Everyone is busy with their own things and days and I am not able to spend time with them, but then you show up and...and..]

A small smile spread over his lips and he shook his head slightly. [And I was mad. Selfish. Possessive. I know you will be seeing Ronnae later and Billy will probably be there. I could kill him for that, you know; their double standards aside. I explicitly didn't want to share my little bit of happiness in a bleak situation with anyone other than Ronnae, but now I have to. It's too late to do anything about that, because that is who you are. And I hate it. But it is one of the things I love, too.]

Nokosi ran his hand across his forehead, pushing the bangs that framed his face out of the way. He exhaled slowly, then dropped his arm back to his side to cradle his aching stomach.

[Useless. Those thoughts. That is why I said that, you know.]

Ellistree listened, a pretty impassive expression on her face. This was the first time he had speak in such a manner and it both concerned and pained her. She had always known him to be possessive and territorial. He was closer to nature because he was more feral, more in tune with the spirits than normal people. But she had gone through great lengths to be with him and teach him about the wonders he had been denied for most of his life. And he had been happy. A joyful nature spirit with much curiosity and glee. And even though he was far older than she, she felt as if he was her child in a way.

But he wasn't. He had been her friend, and her lover, jealousy was natural, just not favored by her family who believed in a more caring and affectionate way. To share that love with those that matter to you, or even those who deserve it.

"Nokosi... have you already forgotten what I taught you about the spirits of nature? How all the elements are tied together and that life brings them all as a whole? So if you would have focused on such, you would have known that you are not that far from that which makes you and Fontaine whole. It just takes more nurturing and more concentration to notice, to harness it, to enjoy it. But even in this small section of such a massive creature as this, I can take comfort in what nature is present."

"I will also be speaking with Fontaine in private, making sure he understands this as well and helping him make a greater connection to the life that is on board for he needs it, as a sacred spirit beast. He is as much part of this environment as the one that we lived in for we are all linked at the most basic of connections, and that is life."

A small smile crossed her lips and she laughed a little, brushing some hair off of his face and bringing him closer, her lips finding his as she began a slow and rising kiss. It was clear, just by the intense emotions being felt from the simple action that she cared greatly for him, and he would surely feel it as well. It was long, loving and steady, until she moved back, her eyes mere slits as she focused on his own.

"You know I love you Nokosi, that has never changed. But you know the life I lead and my beliefs... You know I give myself to no one I do not wish to and that it is only those who I truly believe are worthy of it. Can you not see the effect that they have had on both my loved ones? I can see that this would not have been a safe or livable environment for either of you... and yet here you are. In good health and mostly good spirits. And I'll bet that they have something to do with it..."

"You know that I want to... That I'd give myself to you should you allow it before I have to depart. It's something I would relish and love. Much akin to how I always have. You know you mean very much too me, and I know that I mean just as much if not more to you."

He leaned up to the kiss, ignoring the pain that lingered in his back. His hands were on either side of her shoulders as he pushed against her, trying to sink into the comforting warmth of the moment. When she withdrew herself, he lowered his body back to laying over her lap.

"Ellistree..."

Her words...that was not what he meant, not at all.

[I have no problem with you giving yourself to others. It is how you are, how you've always been. I love you, Ronnae and Nehaalista for all your different traits. What I mean is that I was simply being overly selfish. I wanted your time, all of it, for me. And Ronnae. For no other reason than I care about you so much that I only wanted that happiness for myself in the little time we have.

[I know you would give it to me if you were not here for such a small amount of time; of that I am certain.] He raised a hand to run along her cheek, a smile pulling on his lips. [You shouldn't think so deeply of the selfish things I say, Ellistree. I am still like a child, sometimes; throwing my own fit if things don't play the way I want them to. I can't help it, though...you all have spoiled me rotten with the attention and time I was lavished with and so, given how I tend to feel from time to time, I was greedy.]

Ellistree laughed, shaking her head.

"Sheesh Nokosi... never change. You really are unique." A smile spread big along her lips.

"You said it yourself. If I knew that I had more time. I would dedicate the entire day to you. You know this. Maybe if fate deems it so, I may return and we may have an entire week just to ourselves."

They could go adventuring and he could show here the lay of the land here. She was rather curious about such a large beast that made her thing of Ancient Ones.

Somewhere, very close by, a twig snapped in the woods, followed by a high, childish laugh. A Draenic laugh.

[Terrible is more like it, but if you say so.]

Well at least it was better he admit all of that to someone like Ellistree. If he would have told Ronnae, she would have cried, if he spoke to Nehaa she would have chastised him and probably belted him one (not that he would have minded). And Kaya...well, she had enough issues to deal with for the both of them without him being so unapologetic about his honesty (though it helped that she knew he initially had it out for Billy).

The laughter didn't go unnoticed and he was quick to roll to the side and push himself up. He tentatively snuck over towards the sound, ears perked. All of his previous thoughts of relaxation were gone, now replaced by curiosity.

So capricious.

Elli also picked up the sound, her ears perking up and the sweet sounding voice. A child's laughter was a very enjoyable sound that warmed the heart.

Her eyes narrowed, surveying the area as her senses could pick up the presence of more beings around them.

"You may come out, it's safe." she said in her calmest of tones.

A little pair of bright, draenei eyes peeked out from the bushes. It was incredibly hard to hide from one's mother when his eyes were more like little flashlights, but Vaals had mostly succeeded. His little face popped out of a bush like a flower and he grinned toothily at Nokosi.

"Shh, Uncle Nokosi. Don't tell Mama I'm hiding, okay? Okay." Vaals stuck his head back into the bush with a little laugh and closed his eyes. "She's coming."

Uncle Nokosi? 'Mama'?

...

.......

..............

Oh! Okay, that made sense, but not really because he'd never actually met this kid before, even though Nehaalista insisted he had. Still he went along and hid himself very neatly in the bushes, though he made a face at the pain on his side. Was it really necessary to maul him that badly, Eli?

"Okay!" he whispered back. "Close your eyes, though. I'll stay on the lookout. If she spots us, we're making a run for it!"

If she had gone soft on him, he would have been more annoyed. So yes. Yes it was necessary to rip him apart and almost killing him.

Ellistree smiled and simply relaxed against the tree she was at. So this kid would be Nehaalista's then? Fancy. She never thought the woman would have bothered mating considering her stance on most males... Then again... Elli can't say she blamed her at all judging from the pool available to them in the Alliance cities... and the Cathedral... and Goldshire...

She couldn't help but laugh as she remembered their random conversations together, or during missions.

Nehaalista stepped into the clearing from the west, her expression a little amused, a little worried, and wholly maternal. For a moment, she overlooked Ellistree, before she actually focused on the other woman.

[I didn't expect to see you,] she signed, the magic voice lending some help to her words.

"I could say the same sweet Nehaalista~" she winked and stretched.

"But it seems that fate decided you would be more fitting to this war. Not that I disagree at all. If there was to be someone to bring down the full force of righteous smiting, I would prefer it be someone who is wholly competent and not one of the many idiots that run around Stormwind."

With that being said, Elli smiled and took long strides over to Nehaa before giving her a tight squeeze and a kiss on the cheek.

"It's nice to see that you are alive friend."

Next to Nokosi, Vaals whispered, "How far is she?"

His eyes followed the form of his friend as walked over to Ellistree and he only spoke when they began talking. "She is...less than 30 yards away," the elf whispered. "She has been intercepted by a friend, so we are still in the clear."
