Flirty flirt

Writers: AL, Paula
Date Posted: 21st January 2015

Characters: Stennar, Sofeya
Description: Stennar flirts with the drudge and makes arrangements for the late.
Location: Amber Hills Hold
Date: month 10, day 17 of Turn 7


Being youngest of journeymen, it meant that the shittiest shifts often fell
on Stennar. Like nightshifts. When other people were starting their days,
his was ending. If he was lucky, his mother and sisters would let him sleep
during the day. Unfortunately, most of the time, their home was too noisy
to rest. Tonight's shift was nearing it's end, but so had the klah too.
Turning the pitcher upside down, only few drops fell into Stennar's mug.
"Shards," he muttered. He needed something to keep him going. He had been
up whole night. He called the kitchen for fresh klah.

Sofeya had just awoken for her shift. After taking care of various duties,
she would then proceed to Chupsin's quarters to clean - and most likely
would wind up servicing the man himself. After that, she'd be free.
Unfortunately, her day had just started and one of the cooks grabbed her to
thrust a tray with fresh, hot klah into her hands. "Why the drudge who had
been sent to order the klah couldn't take it, I can not fathom." Sofeya
muttered to herself as she trekked her way through the halls and to the
door in question. Still, perhaps it wouldn't be a waste of time. She
rapped upon the door and smirked at the man when he opened it. "Hello
Stennar. I believe you requested a bit of something."

"Yes, Sofeya, klah. It's been a long night," Stennar looked her and as
always he found her pretty and gave her flirting smile.

The drudge's eyes twinkled and the smile came to her easily. "I
can...linger a bit if you need something else." It was easy for her to find
an excuse, show evidence that she'd been at work elsewhere.

"Right now, I only have enough energy to lift a klah mug," Stennar replied
with regretful voice. He lifted his cup to the air. "Please save poor,
overworked healer." He gave her winsome smile.

"I'm sure I could stir up some energy." Sofeya purred, eyes half closed as
she leaned closer. "You might be surprised how much you actually have."

Stennar found himself staring right into her cleavage. Not bad scenery.
"Well.." he drawled. "If you express it that way.." he was basically
addressing her bosom. It did have invigorating effect on a young man.

"I'd be glad to show you more of that scenery." Sofeya offered as she
closed the gap between them, her body brushing against his. "You just tell
me when you'd like a tour."

"How about after my shift?" Stennar suggested. His hand seemed to move on
his own to caress what she was offering to him. When was the last time? Too
long ago, his body told him.

"That long?" She pouted but then Sofeya nodded. "All right. If I must
wait - better to wait and get than not get at all."

"Yes, we have to wait," Stennar said. He had big plans and getting caught
fooling around while he was supposed to do work would ruin them.

"Then I'll see you later." Sofeya winked before she turned to saunter out.

When she was gone, Stennar pulled a small pouch from his pocket. Opening
it, he measured powdered herbs to his klah and stirred it in. His hands
shook while he but the pouch away and waited the drugs to dissolve into the
klah. Now he really needed something to keep him going. Something stronger
than mere klah.
