The Drow Queen of Glaley [Very NSFW]

[GamesMaster]

"Oh!" she says. "My apologies, I assumed you were here as a chaperone. Thank you for looking out for my sister," she says smoothly.

[Jassinth]

The merikos drow smiles warmly, eyes echoing the smile/ "Completely understandable, Lady Seiya; you are reuniting with a sibling sent afar for... half a decade or so was it?" 

[Shisou]

"Longer, I think? I have quite lost track," Shiori says with a small self-deprecating laugh. 

[GamesMaster]

"It's not as though I can visit," harumphs Tsuki. "I've seen her maybe twice that whole time. I didn't even know..." She waves a hand at Seiya's belly, the other woman's eyes growing shaded. 

[Shisou]

"But, and forgive me for being direct, we have come for advice..."

[Jassinth]

"Of a moderately delicate nature," Jassinth adds smoothly, glancing around as if studying the artwork. How many eavesdroppers are attending us, I wonder?

[GamesMaster]

Seiya nods. "You may speak freely, here."

Tsuki shakes her head. "So the thing is,"

[Shisou]

Shiori puts a hand on Tsuki's arm, shaking her head just a little. Instead she asks, "What advice can you give to Tsu, as she's on the verge of announcing her impending marriage?"

[GamesMaster]

Seiya frowns ever so slightly, but leans in toward the table as she reaches for the sugar. "...do as they tell you," she says finally. "Obedience is a prized virtue among women."

[Jassinth]

"My mother would be shocked to learn this," Jass says with a laugh. Then, with a grin, he adds, "and so would my stepfather."

[GamesMaster]

Oddly enough, Seiya slightly flinches rather than laugh along with him. "Perhaps things are different outside Toukami," she demurs.

[Jassinth]

No, I would think abuse is the same regardless of one's address. But what do I do about this? I cannot simply speak with Maeve to ask for a judgement. Nor can I throw around my own, much lesser, reputation. I suppose I could beat up or even kill their husbands, provided their guards do not do the same to me first, but would that actually help? In a long-lasting, healing, manner? 

I am not prepared for this.

[GamesMaster]

Tsuki snorts. "Can you really see me being the meek, obedient wife?" But Seiya shakes her head, frowning. 

"You don't understand what they'll do. Especially if you cannot produce an out-blooded heir. There are... ways of... forcing the issue." She presses a hand to her stomach. 

[Shisou]

"Your son is... Tiefling, is he not?" says Shiori, slowly, a picture forming in her mind. 

[Jassinth]

Jass stiffens for a second before forcing himself to relax. Dammit, you know better than to judge one for their blood. Teiflings can be just as noble and kind as any other mortal. "Why?" he asks instead, voice tightly controlled. "Why punish you for someone you have no control over? The gods chose the shape of a shell, not the mother. Or father for that matter."
