Ooh, I'm so excited! Brother bought this journal for me in a market in Gallia today. He says that I should keep a diary, since I can't actually talk to that many people… And if there's anything I don't want to tell him yet, I can write it in here.
…Is it just me, or is Brother a sap?
Anyway. Speaking of things that I don't want to tell him, ever, I, like, totally failed to score with this hot cat. Apparently, Brother can't go eat dinner without dragging me along. Sigh. At least he didn't walk in on me this time.
So! Let's review how I have spectacularly failed to get into anyone's pants at all, shall we?
Naesala: hot. Very, very hot. Also, he's clearly bisexual, which would be awesome if I could talk Brother into a threesome. Unfortunately, Brother squawks at him if he sees us even kissing, and he's kind of paranoid whenever Naesala's around. So, haven't gotten past the totally serious foreplay stage.
Tibarn: also hot. That shirt he wears certainly doesn't hurt. Giggle! But I'm not even sure that he's straight, the way he keeps looking at my brother. And the way he keeps ignoring me in favor of my brother. I haven't even managed to kiss the guy yet.
Sanaki: can you say jailbait? Teehee! And that apology back in Serenes was cute. If only she wasn't followed by some random servant all the time, I'd have snogged her by now.
Ike: I like strong guys, and he did save me from that disgusting Duke Pervert of Tanas. I don't really want to be burned at the stake by an angry mob of crazy religious nuts, though. Haven't kissed him.
Soren: the gothboy look is so totally in right now. And he's so cute, and he kind of speaks a bit of my language… But I still don't want to die. (Plus, he's clearly crushing on Ike. Aww.) Nope, haven't kissed him either.
Ranulf: look at those ears, they're adorable! And I think he was flirting with me a few days ago! …But Brother's hanging around me nearly all the time now. He needs a hobby or something. Or to get laid.
Speaking of which, I need to get laid too. Preferably soon!
Oh! So, we headed back to Serenes (which is awesome, because it's closer to a lot of hot birds, and to Miss Jailbait), and I was totally talking to Naesala today! Best. Conversation. Ever. Here, I'll write it for you!
Me: Sigh. "Brother's hanging around too much; it's keeping me from getting any action at all…"
Naesala: "Now, that is a shame."
Me: Nod. "He needs a hobby. Or to get laid."
Naesala: Eyebrow raise. "Does he, now. You know, that could be arranged…"
Me: "…Ooh. You'd do that for me?" Flutters eyelashes.
Naesala: "Of course."
…Um, the rest of the conversation isn't very conversation-y. Mostly, it was just Naesala doing some very interesting things with his tongue. Dear Ashera, that man is hot!
Still no actual sex for me yet. Brother walked in on us again. We weren't even partially undressed this time! Damn.
Brother was blushing like mad today when our dear raven king left for Kilvas.
Remind me to thank Naesala the next time I see him. And you know how they say that the best way to repay a favor is to do the same for them, right?
Nope, no smex.
Giggle! Today, Miss Jailbait herself came to visit! (Or, well, Her Imperial Majesty Jailbait. I guess that's what I'm supposed to call her. Doesn't have the same ring to it, though.)
…And she brought with him that Duke. Sephiran is his name, I think. He's pretty and all, but of all the beorc men in the world, he'd probably be the least likely one to do anything with me. Since, you know, he's on the Senate and all, and the goddess kind of doesn't like beorc and laguz together.
Needless to say, I didn't get any action today either.
He read my diary!
Stupid, invading, prudish excuse for a brother!
How am I ever supposed to be able to do anything now?
No sex today, obviously.
Today, dear diary, I succeeded in my first seduction ever!
Remember how I never managed to kiss Tibarn before because Brother was always spending way too much time with him? Well, I found out three things today:
Tibarn is, surprisingly, not gay.
Brother seems to think he is, or else he wouldn't have let me with him, alone, for the day. Or maybe he thought Tibarn could resist my charms. This leads to my next point.
No one can resist my charms! (Evil giggle!)
…Still haven't gotten to do the horizontal tango yet. But, hey, snogging Tibarn against a wall isn't too shabby!
Bored now. That fling with Tibarn didn't really go anywhere, and he's back to gawking at my brother like usual.
On the upside, Brother's not watching me quite as closely as he was right after he'd read my diary. So yay.
If I had gotten laid, I wouldn't be bored, now would I?
OMG. OMG. SQUEE.
Today, today Brother was off visiting (read: sleeping with) Tibarn, and I got to fly off to Kilvas and, and!
Smex-O-Meter Status: YES. Naesala is awesome.
Score: Leanne 1, whatever otherworldly powers don't want me to get laid… 32 or so. This might take a while.
