Hetha Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 *I float back to shore, and climb the steep embankment, eager to be reunited with my sword, and of course, my clothing as well. When I arrive, I find my sword still, embedded within the rocks, yet, my tie top and tie pants, seem to be missing. Even so, as I look around for them, I pull out my sword and continue, much in the same manner as before, this time staying more alert for movement, other than my own. Wet red curls, like wet noodles, plastered to my head, from the dip into the lagoon, wearing nothing but my black thong bikini, I start where I left off, and continue, sparring with myself, carefree, as though nothing happened.* *Obviously someone, had been here, so I may as well give a good show of stamina and skill, to eshew any thought of attack on my person. Gilded in moonlight, I pay homage to Freyja, in my own way, showing her, just how brave and skilled, her warrior-priestess is, and worthy to serve her in battle. * OOps! That was my outside voice;)!

PyratePhil Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 Although, it would be nice, to have a sparring partner, as the workout intensity, has pumped me up considerably. I would offer, but think that our respective styles might have some difficulty meshing... ...Qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum... ~ Vegetius
Hetha Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 *Getting rather cold, and feeling gooseflesh creeping up my arms, I realize, I must find my tie top and pants. Now, where th' de'il could I have put them? I thought I had a cloak around 'ere at least. I sheathe my sword, after a grand finale, and start to search.* No, not in the escarpement! Could they have blown carelessly out to sea? I don't see anyone, whre could they be. At least I have my boots to put on. I pour out the sand in them, and start to put them back on, and lace them up, while my hair dries.* OOps! That was my outside voice;)! "Big on self-reliance and personal responsibility.

Hetha Posted March 30, 2005 Posted March 30, 2005 *startled, but considerably warmer, I say,* "What's this?" * I look around to see no one, but notice the familiar jacket, 'round my shoulders. I smile to myself, and get up, brush off dirt and debris, and pull the jacket tighter around me. I think to myself, of how sweet and gentlemanly a gesture that was. I hear the drums off in the distance, and assume there may be people around, and trek off in search of them. Someone has to know where the bloody heck myclothing is, and I must thank someone of course.* OOps! That was my outside voice;)! "Big on self-reliance and personal responsibility.
