We were both arriving to Mel's house for the first time, I was walking behind her focused on my thoughts and not noticing yet that we arrived. Mel stays still and I end up hitting my head on her back, still distracted
06:33:44

Owww... Sorry, Mel. Is this it then? Your house?
I caress my head and look at you
06:34:10
With a quiet chuckle, I turn around and lean upwards to press my lips to your cheek, patting your head Yeah, this is it, I hope it's clean enough
I say with another more anxious chuckle I wasn't exactly expecting company today...
I take your hand in mine and lead us to the front door, leaning down to use a small brass key hanging around my neck. With a mildly-annoying creaking sound, the door opens and we're greeted with the scent of cinnamon and cloves left simmering in a pot on the stove. Before us is a small dining table with three chairs, flanked by two potted shrubs against the back wall.
06:45:04
(( shut up system, i was editing
06:45:49
So this is it...
I give a cheesy grin tinged with anxiety
06:46:33

Once I enter into the house, I can feel the scent right in my nostrils and start sniffing gently Oh, that smells good... It's cinnamon and... Ummm... Something else.
I giggle I-I have a question. If we were out and that is cooking, how come it is not burning?
I ask scratching my head and looking at you curiously. Then I look around the place and walk around like a curious kid inspecting every corner It's a nice and cozy place.
I smile at you and sit on one of the chairs next to the dining table I think you should check on whatever is cooking, Mel.
06:51:41
My eyes give away my desire to chuckle, but I maintain my composure and only smile I'm... not cooking. I told you I don't really know how. It's a trick I learned from one of the elderly women back in town.
I move across the room, grabbing a wooden spoon as I approach the stove. It's just cinnamon sticks and cloves simmering over low heat, doesn't it smell amazing?
I give the makeshift air freshener a stir.
06:57:28

Oh...
My eyes widen a little feeling embarrased about my naivety I thought that was food.
I giggle Well... It's not been long since I arrived here so I am still getting used to things around here. After all, my home is still on Heaven.
I look at up for some seconds and then look back at you, and sniff around the air again I must admit it does smell nice. Reminds me a bit of the smell of the southern gardens on Heaven.
Suddenly, my expression changes to more serious one and I look at the table and frown Say, Mel... I was thinking during our walk. Are you sure that you really want to do this?
I look back at you and my eyes shine gently
07:02:43
My eyebrows arch inquisitively as I slide one of the chairs a little closer to yours, the grinding sound of wood against wood interrupting the soft bubbling of the pot on the stove. I let my hand rest on your thigh. What do you mean by "this", hon?
My head tilts as my lidded blue-green orbs look upon yours.
07:09:51
已删除
Well...
I pause for a moment The revolution we were talking about... Don't you think it's too much for us? We might be chewing on more that we can swallow, you know.
I say while I put my hand on top of yours then look where our hands touch each other, making my midlong grey hair cover my eyes
07:13:11
I sigh, pondering for a moment before speaking~ a rarity I- hmmm. I know I'm not ready for a war, but I also don't plan on giving this up for a dumb rule some dead gods made.
My hand slides from beneath yours as I lean in and brush your hair aside, re-establishing eye contact. I'd go through~ heaven~ for you.
I giggle at my own joke Sorry, that was stupid.
07:17:58
已删除
I laugh for a few seconds making my hair fall on my eyes again to then comb it back with the tip of my fingers I think we both deserve to be disowned and banished from our respectives homes just by judging the quality of our jokes. We definitely not excel at it.
I say while I turn my head completely to you, looking straight into your eyes I don't want you to go through Heaven for me, in fact... I... I... want you to be as safe as possible, but I am afraid that won't be the case. We should start recruiting more people. More people that share our ideals.
My eyes suddenly glimmer with hope
07:23:06
We did meet that lovely kitty that seems to be on our side.
My fingers start to absent-mindedly comb through your hair Do you have anyone in mind? I've kept to myself most of my years here...
07:28:52
已删除
Hmmmm.... C-cassy...
I clench my fists and puff my face, showing a mild annoyance, then to laugh gently. Feeling your nimble fingers on my hair makes me blush a little I don't have anyone in mind yet. However, I would like to center our attention in two things.
I raise my right hand in a V position in front of my face The first one concerns you. According to my research, it is pretty uncommon that succubi coming from the Royal Court would just be by themselves. You sure came into this world with more of them, is that correct?
I stare at you with an inquisitive gaze
07:34:42
I nod, my fingers slowing as I think It was my rite-of-passage. There were probably a dozen others with me.
my eyes lose focus, staring through you, into a memory I felt sick... Just... watching them fuck beings to death, yet they reveled in it. The creatures and people here are beautiful! They don't deserve to meet their end for wanting... well, a little pleasure.
I shake my head from the memory and let my head droop down. Th- they took me back. They mocked me- their own princess. I was brought before my father and he- he...
A tear wells up in my eye and my lip quivers ever-so-slightly disowned me, banishing me to this world. Left to starve or learn my place as a succubus.
I wipe the tear away and sniffle, glancing back up into your gaze I haven't seen any of them since.
07:44:21
已删除
I feel myself getting a bit nervous as I notice you weeping. The tear you wiped out wasn't fully gone so I look at you with cute eyes and wipe the rest of it with the tip of my right thumb I guess we can't count on them then. I am sorry, I was probably a big idiot to come up with this and make you remember all of that. I was just trying to cover all possibilities. I am sorry.
I lean my face to you and give you a tender kiss on your lips while grabbing the back of your neck and then push away slowly And... well... There is this second thing I am worried about. And it's about us.
I grab your left wrist If we are going to do this, we should know ourselves better. Mind, soul and heart. We are facing gods after all. So...
I smirk It's about time we get to know each other better.
I look at the table and snap my right fingers, making a chess board appear on the table
07:53:24
A clear look of confusion takes over my expression ... Chess? You want to play a game?
I look over the board, only having played once or twice before How does this help us get to know each other better?
I grumble and i'm definitely not just saying that because I'm no good at the game...
07:59:17
已删除
I giggle and grab playfully your right cheek This is the first time I've seen you making a cute expression like that and it's lovely.
I tease you, and then look back at the chess board Like I said, we should get acquaintanced completely in mind, soul and heart. As much as I love you, I still don't think we are acquaintanced in any of those fully. I am interested in understanding how you think. A game of chess is good for that. Let's just say that is a bad habit for us angels.
I wink at you Or perhaps the Princess of the Royal Court of the Fifth Ring of Hell is afraid of a little game?
I tease you again curious on how would you react, still interested in testing the limits of your personality
08:04:59
My eyes narrow and I continue mumbling f o r m e r... princess
I glance over the board again, begging my brain to remember how this damn game is played. My tone shifts, deeper and serious. I'm not... afraid of your little games, Raphael.
I confidently lift the knight from B1 and place it on B3, before quickly shifting it to C3, moving it back again, glancing up to see if I can get a read from your expression as to which position is the correct one. I end up placing it in the wrong spot.
08:14:12
已删除
Huh...
I take out a notebook and make some notes on it. As I close the notebook, I stare at you with a smirk and a confident face You are even cuter when you get competitive... M e l a n i e...
I say your full name noticing you also said mine. I place my right hand on my chin and stare focused on your behavior and your body language C3 is the right spot, Mel.
I say with a serious voice
08:22:02
I sheepishly place the knight on the correct position, avoiding eye contact. When I finally look up, I catch your gaze and look towards the front windows. It's been a very long time, okay? You don't have to write down my mistake in your little notebook there...
I cross my arms and pout It's your turn...
08:28:27
已删除
Oh, I wasn't writing that on my notebook.
I stare deeply into your eyes and you can notice a blue shade on my grey eyes. I smile and then grab a knight of the board It's interesting how you went for the white pieces right away. You didn't even asked if we could leave it to chance.
I say and then place the knight on the C6 position, mimicking your movement Knight to C6!
I say aloud
08:32:03
My eyes narrow slightly at you once more, not wanting to admit that what you just did was indeed clever. I decide to tease you instead as a misdirection You're such a nerd sometimes, hon
I survey the board, distracted by what you had said. I basically waste my turn by placing my moving my rook one space to B1. My thoughts still linger on what you said, realizing details about me just based on my rushed actions egged on by your teasing. Can I... ask you something, Raph?
08:39:14
(( my turn by moving my rook one space... ***
08:39:53
(( damn grammar and edits
08:40:07
已删除
I blush gently when I hear you calling me a nerd. Somehow I find it cute and I feel some butterflies on my stomach. My eyes widen noticing how cheesy the situation was getting for me. I sigh admitting that I was truly in love for the first time in many years. I shake my head realizing my thoughts were carrying me away from the game. I look at the board and mimic your move again, moving my rook to B8 Rook to B8!
I say out loud Of course, babe. You can ask. What's the matter?
08:44:12
已删除
(it's okay, I didn't even notice the mistake. =P)
08:45:36
Distracted by my own thoughts, I don't even realize you're mimicking my actions. I lift the pawn from E2 I just... I've been having weird dreams this last week...
My eyes rise to meet yours again, the pawn twirling between my fingers. Have you ever... interpreted them before?
I place the pawn on F4 without breaking eye contact. After a moment I glance down and notice my mistake, sliding it to E4.
08:51:33
已删除
As you soon as you slide the pawn to E4, I quickly move the respective pawn to E5, once again mimicking your move and then crossing my arms I've never interpreted dreams before, hun. That's something a bit out of my expertise. However, I am still interested in hearing about it.
I raise my face and smile at you Pawn to E4, your turn.
08:56:52
已删除
(Pawn to E5, your turn****)
08:57:44
Your quick reaction causes me to actually analyze the board for a moment, and I smirk with the realization of what you're doing. It was... abstract~ I couldn't make out much. Shapes... Faint colors?
I place my other knight onto F3, remembering that someone once told me they're powerful assets in the early game of chess.
09:02:48
已删除
Once again I quickly mimic your move with no hesitation whatsoever. This time I don't call my move, only smashing the piece into its position (knight to F6) Hmmmm...
I put my left hand on my chin I think it's too abstract yet for us to make any assumptions. Maybe the dream will clear up soon or maybe it doesn't have any meaning at all. It would be best not to overthink about it. I would recommend you to focus on the game now, Mel. Because you are losing...
I smirk at you and look at you narrowing my eyes. Then I giggle mildly How about we make a bet?
I shake my head gently, moving my hair aside, trying to seem more confident
09:09:43
A bet? sure... cause I am NOT losing already.
Looking over the board, my mind drifts back to the dream. The dream... It wasn't just random shapes and colors it was~ it was almost split in half. Various shades of grey and lines of yellow with hard edges and jagged angles. The other half was softer, more rounded shapes with hints of blues, greens, purples, and pinks. But that's not what stood out the most to me, Raph...
I lift my queen and place it on E2 There was a bright light, almost a beacon in the center. It can't just mean nothing...
I shake away the thoughts, a few strands of orange falling in front of my ears before I push them back into place. Sorry, you said you had a bet?
09:19:55
已删除
I look to the windows for a moment thinking about the dream I don't think I could make anything of it yet. What catches primarily my attention is that bright light you were talking about.
I look back to the board and accomodate my wings in the chair, seeming that they were in an inappropriate position earlier Yes, a bet...
I think to myself that I can make further use of this situation If I win this game, I would like to have a "battle" with you.
I say specially emphasizing the word battle, and then making my move, this time making a bolder move than before, moving my bishop to C5*
09:27:13
I almost go to make another move, expecting you to have mimicked me again. Upon noticing your change in strategy, I think for a second. Do you think the dream means anything? Or am I just imagining things... It seems to have just enough form to have meaning and not just some weird synesthesia-esque vision.
I move my pawn from B2 to B4, foolishly putting pressure on your bishop without any protection on the pawn itself. As for your bet...
I pause for a second, smirking I'll accept.
09:36:41
已删除
As soon as I noticed you leaving the pawn in the B4 position, I already grabbed the knight close to it. I lift it from the board and stay frozen midair hearing your answer. I definitely wasn't expecting you to accept the bet so easily. I look at you with a hesitant gaze and then take your pawn Y-you accept?
I say as I return my arm to myself You do realize that this means we will be going full out on each other, do you? I don't want you to hold back on me.
I look at you with a serious penetrating gaze
09:43:25
(( i realize there's a rook protecting the pawn, but to lose a rook for a bishop... not worth it (at least not imo) xD
09:43:40
已删除
(rook for a knight you mean?)
09:44:28
(( oh, you took it with the knight...
09:44:49

(I'll send the game to your inbox. ^^)
09:46:21
(( i have a game open with our board too xD
09:47:02

(lol, haha. I didn't think we would get that serious with it and then realized you were serious so I opened it.)
09:47:54
已删除
(it's alright if we end with my next move for today?)
09:49:30
已删除
is it alright****
09:49:52
I blush a little, somewhat embarrassed by my misunderstanding of your bet. Oh, I thought you were talking about a different kind of battle.
I say, pressing my tongue into my cheek a couple times while giggling. Is that not what you meant?
I move another pawn forward from D2 to D4, focusing less on the game and more on my embarrassment.
09:51:54
(( i'm making more and more errors leading to more editing which takes forever, so probably a good idea to wrap up, yeah
09:52:17
(( also, 6am?! why didn't you stop us sooner?
09:52:39
已删除
I smile noticing your embarrassment and look back at you with cute eyes I would like to see what you can do in your true form, Mel. I promise I won't hold back either.
I grab a pawn from the chest board I would like to look at me like if I were your prey. I know this might bring you bad memories but I firmly believe that is something we should do.
I make my move moving my pawn from E5 to D4, taking your pawn If we are going into a war, we should definitely be aware of each other full capabilities, that is a must... Mel.
I look to your eyes again
09:58:14
