((Yeah, I'm thinking PM-time's a'coming. Our characters sure do work fast. If these were real friends of mine, I'd be like, 'Whoa, guys, slow down! Be safe! What are you thinking?' ))

Vosayra gave a loud laugh as Koralov picked her up and moved them behind an outcropping of rocks, their position now much harder for someone else to notice...though she didn't think that was likely. She wrapped her arms around Koralov's shoulders as he dipped his hand under her shirt to her shoulders, her collarbone, gasping at the feeling and arching her back closer to him. "Koralov..." she murmured, just to hear the sound, just to say his name, seeing the bright glow of his amulet and, half-curious and half acting on her guesses, she lifted it as it swung between them and brought it to her lips, giving it a soft kiss.

Koralov's eye shot wide and he let out a loud cry, shaking as he closed his eyes and let out a shuddering breath. He looked at the amulet in surprise, obviously having not had that happen before. Gods, it felt good though- like suddenly his entire body had experienced pleasure all at once. That was going to give him a definitely disadvantage in this situation.
Between that and the sound of her saying his name again, he was getting delirious with need. "Vosayra..." He gasped, not really knowing what to do but kiss her again, but trailed his kisses down to her jaw and to her neck.

((Yeah... though she as a serious advantage now PM time, then?))

Phoenixwildfire wrote:"Least." Zulu scoffed. "I'd say far more- but it's silly to argue about that." He smiled, hugging her lovingly against him and kissing the top of her head. "You make me smile like no one else can."

Koralov nodded and stood with a long groan of relief that he was still again, but then remembered he had to... walk. Hopefully this would be done soon. "Yeah- I hope it just happens soon... it feels as if I got beathed on by a dragon." he said, looking over at the distance Zulu and Anri were away and let out a small noise. "I'm such a wuss with pain. Sorry." He said, looking to Vosayra sheepishly.

Anri smiled softly, turning to look up at Zulu and stood on her tiptoes, pressing a gentle kiss to his lips. "You're wonderful, Zulu, and if you're not smiling, there's something terribly wrong."

Vosayra chuckled gently, supporting Koralov with a soft arm around his waist. "I know how bad a sunburn hurts, love. When we first moved here, I was sunburned more than I wasn't, and it took a long time for my skin to adjust. But we'll just keep you better shielded from the sun from now on and you'll be fine for the time we're here. Hopefully we'll be back where the sun won't get you so bad soon."

Koralov nodded as they started walking back over to Zulu and Anri. "I hope I get used to it soon..." Koralov sighed. "Perhaps I should borrow Zulu's white robes for a while so I don't get this again."

Zulu smiled and nodded, looking up as Koralov and the woman approached, Koralov walking with an awkward stiff gate. He frowned in confusion, motioning to the sorcerer with his head in question to Anri. "I wonder what happened."

Vosayra nodded. "I used to wear a kind of light hood that they give to visitors around here. There's some charm they put in them to keep off the sun and cool your skin a bit. They're expensive, but I think we should be able to find one for you."

Anri blinked at the way Koralov was walking, teasing quietly to Zulu, "Well, I mean, the first time can make you weak in the legs..." But she nodded at the way his hands, where they poked from his long robes, were pinkish. "I think he got sunburned."

Zulu blinked in surprise. "Already? We've only been here for a short while." He said in surprise. He had never gotten sunburned so quickly before- then again... he was used to the sun.

"That may be a good idea. I can always try to make a potion to afford it." He said, approaching Zulu and Anri, stopping in front of them awkwardly. "Did you two manage to get the map we needed?" He asked them.

Anri chuckled. "Of course you don't know, my desert man," she smiled. "But we pale people, we can burn in ten minutes of a strong sunshine. She nodded to Koralov as he and Vosayra approached. "Yes, we did... Did you get burnt?"

Vosayra managed to keep from rolling her eyes at Anri's question. It was clear from the way Koralov was walking, wasn't it? Her arm still around his waist, she replied, "Yeah, and do you have any way to help with that? Any spells that can help?"

Zulu looked at the woman's arm around Koralov's waist in a protective and supportive manner, a small grin coming over his face. "Remind me to get you a protective sun stone." He said to Koralov. "I didn't know you'd burn so easily. I'm... too used to it, I suppose." He nodded, thinking of what Anri had said.
Koralov nodded and looked to Anri hopefully. "I just need something to... get rid of this for now. Do you happen to have any spell that would help?"

Vosayra noticed the way Zulu gave a small grin, his eyes on her arm around Koralov's waist, and cocked her chin at him a bit, as if challenging him to say something, though she wasn't angry so much as...acknowledging his look.

Anri, in answer to Koralov's question, bit her lip, thinking. "For...for the moment, I know a little spell that will run an air current just over your skin to keep it cool and keep your clothes from touching your skin. As far as the burn, I...herm, I know one salve that should help, but that one's a bit more complex and it'll take me, eh, twenty minutes?" She waved her fingers in a few quick runes and suddenly the air around Koralov began to circulate very quickly over his skin, gently cooling it and causing his clothes to lift up consistently from his skin.

Koralov sighed a bit in relief as the wind fluttered over his skin so his clothes weren't running over his burned skin and hurting him... but it only helped so much. They still hurt every time he moved. "Well... I suppose we could stay for 20 minutes or so? Or do you need ingredients for it?" He asked, not knowing whether her magic was like his, where she needed ingredients for the salve. He just wasn't sure how fast he could walk in this condition.

Zulu looked to her challenging head tilt and only smiled wider, not saying anything... yet. He was curious as to why Koralov had suddenly fallen in love with this woman. The sorcerer was so quiet and didn't seem interested in romance- but apparently he just needed to find the right woman.
