„Your blood prickles on my tongue!" Astarion exclaimed, surprised. „Really. Is it that bad?" Tsisk replied worried. „Not bad, bud certainly odd. It felt smoother before. Just like a good wine or meade." He seemed disgruntled. Tsisk thought about it for a moment, before she went over to her backpack, took something small from it and downed it in one gulp. When she came back over, she told him „Try again." Hesitantly, he buried his fangs in her neck and took a small sip. Then a deep draft. „That feels refreshing! What did you drink there? Not another one of Oblodras concoctions, I hope." With a wide grin, she told him „It was a simple health potion. I wonder how other potions and elixiers might be for you. - But we shouldn't try them all tonight. Maybe we need some of them in the near future." She said while she went back to her backpack. „You're full of surprises, aren't you. And such a poor sport to boot." He said with half-closed eyes and showing off his teeth with a grin himself. „Now would you come over for a little more?" With a devious smile, she downed another little flask, cupped in her hand, so he could not see what it was. „What was that? Do you want to drug me tonight?" He demanded to know. She laughed „You can always not drink me. You know, that is an option." „I wish it were. And you are not going to tell me, so just let me guess." He drew her back into his arms and slowly, sensually caressed her neck with tongue and teeth before biting down carefully were his previous bites had left marks and a small trail of blood. With the slightest hint of a moan, she purred into his ears „Do you want to torment me tonight, my dear? This feels like it." „An eye for an eye is what you deserve." He murmured into her neck. „But I notice nothing. That one did not work." Acting all innocent, she asked „Not even a tingle?" „Nooo…How?" „A potion of Fire resistance seems to cancel out the effect of Oblodras drink." „My wicked little lizard. It puzzles me how you are able to recklessly abandon common sense one second, then do something like this right the next." With a yawn, she answered „It's a package deal, my love. Take it or leave it. But after all this bloodletting, I'm tired. Kiss me goodnight, tomorrow will be strenuous." The kiss he gave her was soft and loving and his hands caressed her until she fell into a blissful slumber.
