Restless (OTA)

[st_unaligned]

Bo was feeling restless. Or rather, it seemed more than that, but that was the best way to describe it. It wasn't like Sam wasn't fulfilling her needs or that her other partners weren't either. It wasn't that at all, it just seemed as if something inside of her wanted more. Like when you just seemed to always be hungry no matter how much you have already eaten.

She was at the gym, trying to burn off the endless steam she had - Sam, poor thing, was tapped out and resting. Bo had a sword in her hand and was going through some basic moves, trying to get faster and more familiar with the weapon. If she was going to be honest, she knew how to use a lot of weapons, but she wasn't an 'expert' in any of them. She wanted that to change.

She also wanted to stop thinking about tearing off people's clothes as they walked through the door and kissing their bodies all over.

Tactically he knew he'd left himself exposed to a move like that, but he wasn't expecting the speed of Bo's reaction.

He felt the lust in him rise. Part of it was that he was in a very compromising position with a very attractive woman pressed up against all kinds of parts of him that were very aware of the situation. However, that sudden surge had him moving before he even thought about it, throwing Bo off of him and launching himself upright, moving into a fighting stance and gathering his magic around him. "White Court, here?" he spat out, trying to work out which family it was. He didn't think it was the Raiths, but you never knew.

Bo rolled, the throw both surprising and sudden, and climbed to her feet suddenly aware things were not okay. She tensed, ready to defend herself, hands up out of instinct. "White Court?" Her brow furrowed. Where had she heard that term before?

[st_illavirgin]

"I could feel what you were doing," he said, keeping still, hoping to keep it at this level and not escalate it further. "That lust you were projecting."

[st_unaligned]

Bo paused. It was always a little awkward when someone managed to call you out on something like that. "Look, I'm sorry. I'm not White Court, or whatever that is. I'm just Fae. It's something I do naturally."

[st_illavirgin]

"A succubus?" There wasn't any judgement in there, just an understanding of what he was dealing with. He calmed down, coming out of the preparation for fighting with pose he had found himself in, looking at Bo carefully. "I'm a wizard, and the Fae is not unknown to me."

[st_unaligned]

Bo watched Carlos for a moment. "You're from Molly's world, right?" That he knew was a succubus was, was at least a little stress-relieving. "I don't really share what I am here." Particularly because her boyfriend's mother and brother were hunters.

[st_illavirgin]

Carlos nodded slowly, still watching Bo closely. "I am. She's a friend of mine there." Well, sort of, but it really was a complicated situation. Friend was close enough. They'd got to that point.

He could understand the idea of not sharing who you were here. Given everything, and the number who fought supernatural creatures... he'd probably keep it quite as well.

[st_unaligned]

Bo also knew something was not quite right with her. She didn't normally want to suck face with everyone she saw, unless she was hungry or somewhere where the aura of arousal was strong.

"Does that make you a wizard too?"

[st_illavirgin]

He inclined his head briefly, though he never took his eyes off her. "Guilty as charged," he said with a grin. Nothing to be guilty of in the slightest. "Though I'm from LA, not Chicago."

[st_unaligned]

"Different wizarding branches, huh?" She smiled with amusement. "Well... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.." she gestured vaguely to Carlos.

[st_illavirgin]

"Sort of." Safer to have wizards spread out all through the world. He remembered only too well what had happened when wizards had gathered in one hospital, and the sheer number of his friends who had been killed.

He nodded slowly. "I've had a couple of run ins with succubi - not my favorite experience." He hated the thought of being considered as food.

[st_unaligned]

She tried not to feel as offended as she should have been. "Yeah, well, if they were anything like my mom, I wouldn't blame you."

[st_illavirgin]

Carlos wasn't all that bothered if Bo was offended or not - though he did prefer to keep the supernatural on side where possible, especially in an enclosed place like this. "Now that just makes me curious," he pointed out. "The White Court are difficult to deal with." Which was putting it mildly.

[st_unaligned]

She shrugged. "My mom was basically use what you got to get ahead and didn't care who got in the way."

[st_illavirgin]

"Ah. Just like the Raith's then." It would appear there was definite commonalities there. At least he knew where he stood then. "And you're not like that?" Forgive him, he doesn't quite believe it.

[st_unaligned]

She rolled her eyes at that. "Yeah, I'm exactly the same. You're secretly under my spell right now and you don't know it. Soon you'll be stripping to 90s music for me like a Chippendale."

[st_illavirgin]

Carlos grinned in return. "Well if you're going to do that to anyone, at least you have good taste." His original good humour was returning.

[st_unaligned]

"Oh really, huh? Can't think of anyone else?" Bo could at least appreciate Carlos' ability to crack a joke.

[st_illavirgin]

Carlos gave her a long look. "Well, through preference, yes, but my comment still stands."

[st_unaligned]

"Well, don't worry, I'll steer clear of you from now on, how's that?" She had told Sam no guys, after all. "Just got caught up in the moment. You know, adrenaline pumping and all that."

[st_illavirgin]

Carlos sighed. "No, I didn't mean it like that. Just... surprised, that's all." He could never manage to say the right thing here. Foot in mouth syndrome - he was taking over from Harry, it would seem.

[st_unaligned]

"It's okay. I'm not offended. I know what I am, and I get how people can react." Bo was under no delusion that succubus' were normally Dark Fae.

[st_illavirgin]

Carlos knew that, and while it wasn't the vampires from his world, a succubus was still potentially dangerous. However, he should also know in a place like this, it was worth keeping those you know who had power if not on your side, not against you. "With surprise, I'd guess."

[st_unaligned]

She gave a small shrug. "Yeah, or attempt to kill. Kind of the same thing. Unless you're the Morrigan. Then you try to recruit them to be a Dark Fae." She rolled her eyes.

[st_illavirgin]

"Yeah, well thankfully we don't have the Morrigan in our world - that we know of yet. She wouldn't exactly remain quiet, after all." Thankfully. Mab and Lea were quite enough.
