Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 08/31/2016 at 12:09:50
Deep inside the jungle lay a dormant set of ruins from an long forgotten ancient culture. The ruins lay undiscovered by humans for centuries, though many animals had taken up residence inside. Along its' walls were scrawled messages written in pictures. Many of the pictures contained serpentine drawings, though the message was largely indecipherable. At at the heart of the ruins lay an ancient artifact that seemed to radiate with its own power. (reserved for Grim)

Well, the ruins were largely in-acessable to humans....until recently.
There was suddenly the sound of heavy footsteps that cut through the ferns that partially covered the ruined stone archs that presented as an opening to the ruins. The opening revealed two brown boots and a figure of a ninteen year-old man by the name of Harold Ramar. He was a man with white skin that was mostly covered with a sweaty white tank top and brown shorts that covered his body. Now, he was no athlete by any means, but the developing six-pack and lean muscle on his arms and legs did mean that his exploration did give him some exercise. Okay, that wasn't the most humble thing he could've had, but it was close enough. He also sported a large back-pack that had all his camping gear on the back with his ice picks on the side, and he also sported a brown hat that covered his short brown hair that was lightly trimmed.
He scanned his blue eyes over the tall bridge that over-looked the passage to the city and smiled. Today was going to be a great day for him, for he would be the only human that ever saw the ruins of an ancient race, one that supposedly died out long ago. If he played his cards right, he and all the artifacts he could find would be remembered for centuries and he would make it in the books. For you see, he was a archaeologist from the university of Arizona and he claimed to have found the secret passage to an ancient city that once belonged to a race of people that were both human and snake...a lost race of humans casted aside from the rest of humanity. He got a part of the map from his father and he presented his finding over to the dean.
Well.....let's just say he was scoffed at, for the very idea of some race that once ruled with snake-like abilities and leaving not even a trace of their existence till now seemed to be border-lined myth, if not pure insanity. Well, just out of spite, he took a plane ticket the amazon and followed the maps directions. It took a few days, but he finally found the city, and he would be the first to arrive.
After taking his time to carefully scale the bridge, he walked along the stone-covered road that lead to the temple itself. From there, he could see the decaying stone walls that had paintings of the race now gone, all were still vibrant in spite of age. Even so, he had to be careful, for he was aware that some animals may have taken up refuge in the ruins, and he didn't want to be food anytime soon. But....he had to stop and look at a painting that showed a circle of these snake people....worshiping some sort of light? Now that made him frown a little. What was it? Maybe if he moved to the center of the place, he would know, and so he did. He took note that the center was a temple that was like an Aztec temple, but the top part was gone, most likely from the elements. There were a lot of stairs.
He took a sigh and took his first step up. Time to get to the bottom of this fantasy place.

Down he went to the bottom, quite literally. The temple grew more and more dark as he climbed the long set of steps deeper and deeper. Luckily the open roof provided enough light to see by. As the stairs continued down, every little sound was amplified and echoed around. The wind gently blowing over the top of the building sounded liked a rush of wind down below. And loose rocks or gravel, the occasional drip of water reverberated around the structure.
Along the way down was a collection of creatures. Tarantulas dotted the walls, occasional bats along the roof, snakes hidden away in crevices. The cobwebs began to grow thicker and thicker. Eventually, it grew so thick that they barred the stairway. A large python lay coiled around a rocky outcropping. Its slow hissing breathing sounding more like a sprinkler in the echoes than an animal.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/08/2016 at 23:04:59
He wasn't really bothered by the decreasing light as he he made his way down. Weeks of exploring the Amazon for these ruins did give him a brave streak. Besides, he had a handy flashlight tapped to his hat in case he has to use it. He did had to admit though, the amplified sounds that venerated through the temple are quit marveling. Just seeing the ruins was one thing, but hearing the marvels of it all? Just a dream for any explorer. Now, he took out a dagger sharp enough to cut through the web's to make his way down and....
That's when he saw the python and he cursed a little. Just his luck....okay, no worries. He simply just had to keep his eyes on the snake as he went down and that would be it.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/11/2016 at 11:22:20
And that was it. The serpent seemed to fix him with a look, but it was hard to tell with its cold reptilian eyes. It made no move to stop him as he passed.
As he descended down further, it continued to grow darker until he was straining to see the next steps in front of him. However, all at once he reached the end of the stairs. Just ahead there was a deeper darkness, that seemed to outline a door shape in front of him. But something within the inner chamber shown faintly. Whatever it was was shiny, or was it glowing faintly? It sat a little off the ground as if built into a structure or perhaps an artifact sitting on a pedestal.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/11/2016 at 11:33:01
By the time he passed a snake and got to the bottom, he let out a heavy sigh of relief. He really didn't want to know what the snake was thinking of behind it's cold eyes. But at least it ultimately didn't think of him as food, or else he would've been in all kinds of hurt.
Once he landed to the bottom, he frowned a little at the deep darkness that laid before him. Well, he did expect this sort of situation to happen. He was like what, about a hundred feet under-ground already? He flipped on the flashlight on his hat, allowing a desirable ball of light to illuminate that ground. Now with that out of the way, he started to walk towards the door that wasn't too far away. Just seeing the faint glow of light behind the door made him smile a little in excitement. Whatever it was, it could ignite a revelation about this lost civilization that once lived long ago. He didn't hesitate to gently place both hands on the door and push forward, the doors opening with a slight creak.

Post by Perilous on 09/11/2016 at 12:15:40
As the door slowly swung open, part of the floor behind him sunk down suddenly. Luckily it just missed him, and the area he was standing on remained firm. If it was an ancient trap he had triggered, it wasn't a very good one. More likely, the temple was old and slowly falling apart. Within the room were several stone slabs that had previously fallen away from their holdings. But in the center was a bronze urn that played across the light from his lamp.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/11/2016 at 12:52:17
Harold nearly jumped out of his skin when he felt a huge rush of wind across his back. He looked back to see part of the floor just give out from behind. He sure was lucky to not be on that part of the floor when it did happen. HE assumed it was a trap judging by the way it fell apart, but the old foundations meant that it eroded as well. Kinda lucky how time in this case was on his side after all...even if it was just falling apart. He took a few seconds to re-gather his wits and wipe the sweat from his forehead after that terrifying episode. He needed to see if....and that's when his eyes saw it, the source of the glow. A look of awe and a slackened jaw took to his face upon seeing his flashlight glow upon the urn before him.
No sooner did he see the urn that he slowly made his way towards it. Along the way, he saw the slabs and he had to wonder what the function of this inner room was. Was it a ceremonial chamber, a royal hall, or something that defied even human imagination? He honestly couldn't tell just from the rotting walls of the place, but the urn could probably give him some insight. He managed to get close enough to lay a delicate hand on the front of the urn, brushing away the dust. He could see some images like two nagas, both female, holding the urn that was billowing a beam of green light. Hmmm....interesting.
He looked at the urn again and gently place both hands on the handles. He wondered...what was inside it?
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/15/2016 at 23:11:03
As he placed both hands on the handles, the urn began to glow brighter and brighter. It was soon apparent that it wasn't just his lantern, but the object itself that was emitting its own light. The light started to become so intense that it was blinding. Everything else about the room faded away. And then, just when it started to get unbearable, the light receded again.
However, once things returned to normal, it looked different. The temple was suddenly less dusty, and devoid of cobwebs. The structures were repaired and everything looked shiny and new. The carvings on the wall had a faint red glow to them, whereas they had been plain before.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/17/2016 at 13:22:50
Harolds face contorted from a happy grin to a shocked frown as the urn started to glow. Why was it glowing when he touched it? Did he just set up a trap? He tried to get his hands off the urn, but the handles were keeping his hands on them. It was like he was stuck to some glowing magnet, and it was getting brighter and brighter. Soon it was getting so bright that he had to close his eyes to prevent them from being blinded, and it was getting too hot for some reason. He could barely yell out before a lurching sensation entered his body and he fell on his back with the urn on his chest.
The minute he got up, he noticed how....clean everything was. What....what just happened? Was he even int he same room? Without any sort of thinking....he decided to stagger his way out of the room, keeping the urn in his arms.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/18/2016 at 23:36:50
Almost the instant he stepped out of the room, he was knocked flat on his back. A sharp point was sticking directly in his view. Following the point back, it was attached to a long wooden spear. Beyond that was a woman standing over him.
"What are you doing with that? !" she shouted at him. "And how did you even get in here? And what the heck are you? !"
The woman had dark tanned skin, and short cropped black hair. She wasn't wearing much, she had a black sports top and a brown snakeskin dress... actually on further inspection, it was actually not clothing, but a serpentine tail. Like something out of a Greek legend. She had red war paint across her face and her bare belly. She also had a chain draped around her neck. The warrior woman continued to glare at him, demanding that he explain himself.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/18/2016 at 23:47:29
For a brief moment (that honestly felt like an eternity), Harold was awe-struck by the woman in his sights. The war-paint, the dress of sorts...wait....that was a tail?! THat meant....he was looking at a full-fledged snake-woman of sorts! Like some sort of naga! THat meant....this entire civilization was real, and he just stepped foot into a civilization that was not only alive and well, but also in front of him.
A shame that he was at the wrong place at the wrong time and now a guard of sorts was pointing a spear at him! If he didn't try to explain himself quickly, he'll be nothing but a trophy for this woman.
"Wha...o-oh this thing!" He stammered out as his hands accidentally dropped it. But the urn didn't break fortunately, only bounced off and rolled a little before coming to a halt five feet away from him. He looked back at the woman with his eyes wide with concern. "W-waitwaitwait! I...I mean you no harm! I am a traveler, and I got here by accident! I'm a human, just a human! Who are you exactly?!"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/21/2016 at 18:19:54
The guard woman gasped in shock. "How dare you!" Lightning fast, she struck him hard against his cheek with the butt of her spear. She quickly picked up the urn, though she wasn't supposed to touch such a sacred object. It was bad enough that the creature was touching it. But then he dropped it on the ground so carelessly.
"You are going to regret that Hu Man, or whatever you are!" she hastily returned the urn to its pedestal. She acted almost afraid of the vase, or maybe it was the repercussions of letting him touch it.
She leaned in and stared him down, her weapon once again at the ready. "Alright! Talk! Who are you? What do you want? And how did you manage to get past me!!!"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/22/2016 at 22:49:59
She heard every command and....she fell asleep before he even finished. That was hypnosis for you.
Well, if that nasty blow to his cheek meant anything, it meant that he already had placed himself in a dangerous position just by touching the urn. But it wan't his fault...sort of. He didn't even know that the urn was really some sort of transport device that could take him...well, here. Hell, it wasn't his fault that all the sudden this woman just appeared and threatened him to where he had to drop it, and he figured that the urn was made out of something stronger than clay. But that wasn't really an issue right now. He could only groan slightly at the blinding pain to his cheek as he looked at the naga frantically putting the urn back on the pedestal. He didn’t know anything else about this place right now, and now this angry snake woman was threatening him.
He held his hands up and frantically called out to the woman. “Look! I am a human being! A bipedal mammal and I’m an explorer! I just came here to find a civilization like this one! I picked up the urn and I got sent here! I didn’t even know you were right here!” He shouted.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/22/2016 at 23:11:03
She ignored most of what he was saying. She only snorted and muttered "No such thing as a bipedal mammal..." And yet here, he was in front of her.
She licked her lips a moment in thought. "Alright! Stand up." she gestured with the spear. "Your my prisoner now... We shall see what the Queen thinks of you. But I swear to the holy that if I am executed for letting you get the urn, I will kill you first."
With that pleasant thought, she began ushering him out of the hall and up the stairs. Strangely, they were an exact mirror opposite of the stairs he had wandered down earlier.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/22/2016 at 23:33:57
Okay, now he can understand that he had NO room to talk back to a woman who seemed strong enough to break him in half. Yet, the fact that he could clearly hear her repeat about him not being a mammal clearly meant that she wasn't listening to him at all. That made him frown in slight anger. Why did this had to happen to him of all times. He just founded proof of a race of people long thought gone and now this!
In spite of this, he slowly got up and stared at her for a bit at her threat. Great....now a threat of execution as well. Well, wait....this place had A QUEEN?! That means that....oh jesus....what did he get himself into?
He wordlessly obeyed his captors commands and began to walk up the stairs, taking note of the strange mirrored look to them.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/24/2016 at 10:48:44
Once they had marched up the stairs, she led him down a side route to a massive hall. When he had entered the ruins, this passage was sealed off the and the large hall was hidden away. It was grandly decorated, and along each wall were several snake girl guards. These ones were armored, though still as scanty as his captor.
At the center of the hall was a grand throne. Although, this one was not a human chair, but a round disk with a pile of cushions and was intricately decorated. In the center of the disk was a snake woman, obviously the queen. She was coiled up like a cobra, and sat staring as they approached.
His captor bowed low, not at all gently making sure he did the same. It was obvious that she was more than just a little nervous about how this would go.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/24/2016 at 11:36:15
It took a lot of willpower for Harold to not make a single sound of wander into the massive hall before. He knew that in his situation, even the slightest bit of sound from might be taken as a threat. Still, that didn't stop the young explorer from having a slacked jaw at what he saw. The place was decorated and looked all shiny and new! Where the heck was he then?! Did that urn made him go back in time? Did the urn made him hallucinate? His head was swirling with questions that he wanted to ask, but he couldn't.
He could only stare at the snake woman in the cushioned seat just before he was harshly forced to bow low. He didn't know, what he could expect....but if he didn't do something....he was dead.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/27/2016 at 23:45:58
"Come forward." the queen commanded. The warrior woman went to make a move, but was interrupted. "Not you! Him!"
The woman on the throne was very lovely. She had long flowing black hair, darker skin, and a deep red snake tail. She wore only a white silk top, though she was heavily decorated in fine jewelry. Her belly button was pierced with a ruby setting, gold chains encircled her hips. She had gemstone arm bands and cufflinks and a number of other gold chains. Her eyes were outlined in dark eyeliner that drew attention to them.
"What is your purpose here? And what are you?" she commanded him, eyeing him with great interest.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/28/2016 at 17:15:48
The minute the queen-like snake woman called him forward, Harold could feel his heart fall to his stomach. He could do little other than slowly move out of his bow and start to walk up with a sense of slight dread in each step. He didn't really know what she could say to him, nor how she would react to him explaining his sudden drop into this realm. But whatever sort of time he had left to explain himself, he had to make it quick, clean, and respectful. After moving himself up to where he would be right in front of the snake woman, he looked up and....
Well....words couldn't really express the wave of emotions he felt reverberating over his body upon seeing her body. He had to admit, for a race of woman who were part snake, she looked drop-dead gorgeous! From her hair, her silken top, and to her lean figure, she clearly made herself out like a queen of sorts. But now wasn't the time to look at a figure with such....features. He took a deep breath and spoke calmly, taking off his hat and wiping the sweat that formed along his brows.
"Well miss...." He began to say as calmly as he could. "....I am a human being, which is a bipedal mammal. I am merely an explorer, sent on my own to find the, or rather your civilization that disappeared from my lands long ago." With this explanation, he slowly took off his backpack and gently set it on the ground. He was careful not to open it or make any move that would provoke a strong reaction from the guard behind him. "You can look and see for yourself. I can assure you, I mean you and your race no harm. I only wished to satisfy my curiosity and learn about your culture long lost from my world."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/04/2016 at 00:05:38
"That's HER MAJESTY!" the guardswoman shouted in outage at him calling the Queen "Miss".
"Silence!" the Queen ordered her. She smiled at the human in front of her, though whether or not it was a good thing remained to be seen. "And what be your name? And how is it that you managed to get here, get past my guard, and steal such a priceless artifact?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/04/2016 at 05:54:03
Harold cringed a little at the shouting. IF this kept up, he would end up dead before the day was out. But he knew he still had to play it cool and composed if he wanted to at least be perceived as a mild inconvenience, if not an indirect threat.
"My names Harold Ramar." He said calmly, still keeping himself steady against the two woman. "When I inspected the urn, it binded my hands to it with some force I do not know about. As for your guard..." He said while glancing quickly at the ill-tempered snake-woman behind him. "...I had no knowledge that she was in the room, as my mind couldn't process how the urn transported me here. Plus, I only assumed the urn was still keeping my hands on it. I didn't know if I could let go of it. If I knew it was done once I was here, I would've let go, and I apologize if you thought I was stealing it. I had no intention to..."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/05/2016 at 23:06:03
"He's lying!" shouted the guardswoman, but was silence by a glare from the Queen. The snake woman on the pedestal stood up, the silks falling away from her as she did so. She announced loudly to everyone in the room, "This is a special day. Not only is it a sacred day, but a human has graced us with his presence. It is a day that will go down in history. And you..." she said nodding to the loud guardswoman, "Will be rewarded for your involvement."
"Wha-what?" she gasped in surprise.
The queen nodded, "Now leave us. I would speak with the human alone." The guards in the hall slithered out to leave. Two of them lifted up her pedestal, and lowered her to the ground before leaving. Soon it was just the two of them.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/06/2016 at 06:02:11
Harolds own heart raced at the queen announcing that this was a special day. Wait a minute....a special day? Well, he did manage to transport himself here after years of the place being inactive. But on the other hand, how was his presence that important other than him being a human. Well, regardless of the case, he did feel the least bit grateful that the guards were now gone, and he and the snake woman were now face to face. He really had to take in the queens beauty for some brief seconds right now, but he couldn't really act flustered around her, in spite of his pink cheeks.
He rubbed his head and looked around for anything really. "So..." He started to say with his voice sounding less tense than before. "....what do you wish to talk about? I mean, it's a great honor to be in the presence of such a..." He tried to think of something modest to say about her. "esteemed member of a race I tried to find for years now."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/08/2016 at 23:47:18
"You may have been searching for us, but we have been waiting for you, Harold." she said. "It was foretold that someone from the... what did you call it? Human race would grace us with their presence." She slithered over to him, her tail winding around his feet. "I am Queen Elise. I would like to personally welcome you to my kingdom."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/09/2016 at 09:56:10
Harolds eyes widened at the news, at he had to move back slightly just from the sheer shock alone. They were waiting for a human to come here due to some prophecy? This....made little sense to him, because he didn't really think of himself as anything special other than a discoverer of some sort of ancient transporter device. Plus, why him specifically when anyone who could stumbled onto the place could get here as well? "Well thank you, your majesty." He said politely with a small bow. "But I didn't expect that you were waiting for me to just show up here. I assumed that my visit was an announced surprise."
He then lit up as e realized another thing. "In fact...." He started to say. "From how old the ruins on my world are and what I saw before I got here, I assumed you had to leave my world." He looked down to see the tail around his feet, and he would be lying if he said that the sales didn't feel strangely nice against his boots. Then again, his boots kinda blocked him from feeling her tail much.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/15/2016 at 23:32:11
"Yes, your arrival was quite the surprise for us. Though we had been hoping you would come here eventually. You match the descriptions of a human that we have in our text. However, having not seen one in many generations, our artists have gotten creative and came up with different depictions. The guards would not have recognized you for what you are."
Her tail was feeling up his boots before climbing higher up his legs.
"I have studied all of the ancient texts and know everything there is to know about humans... or at least what we had recorded about them."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/16/2016 at 00:03:29
"Well...." He said before he started to grin. "I'll be sure to check any of your artists paintings for accuracy." He gave her a little laugh at his little joke. He honestly was a bit curious as to how this queen subjects imagine his race to even look like? Heck, how would they even react upon seeing him? Well, if the queens reaction and her explanation was an indication, they would regard him with fascination and praise. But he couldn't really shake off the small feeling in his head that there was some sort of hidden motive behind the queens face. He really didn't know, so he couldn't say anything that could be interpreted as an insult. But he could see behind her sparkling eyes that she held some sort of power that glared back at him, as if to keep him drawn in. "Well how old are your texts? I imagine that they are quite out-of-date if you knew what time I'm from."
He suddenly flinched as he felt a strange, if not soft set of scales brushing against his legs. He had to admit that it felt quite nice, but he really didn't know how to describe it. He looked down and reached a hesitant hand to gently rub a coil around his legs. "I must say..." He said with an unsure tone. "...Never expect to know a naga this much in one day."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/19/2016 at 10:17:32
"Our texts are thousands upon thousands of years old. They record interactions with humans, however they did not foresee our sudden departure. None of them thought to include a detailed description of a human, barely bits and pieces. But looking at you now, there can be little doubt of what you are." With that, her tail climbed around his knees.
"You may get to know a naga, even better this day... I mean... Is there anything I can get you to make you feel more welcome?" As she said this, she got in really close. Could stand taller than him, forcing him to look up at her as they talked. Her eyes began to glow mysteriously, and her tail circled around his thighs.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/20/2016 at 05:54:29
Over several millennia old? Now that's something Harold had to take into consideration right there. That could mean that her entire race could be as old as the first humans that walked the land, or even the earlier hominids! That did bring up the question of HOW her race developed a snakes lower half during the years they manage to co-exist. He would have to ask her on that at a later date. For now, the entire experience of just teleporting here gave him enough excitement for one day. Wait....how was he gonna get home? If that urn was only a one-way trip....he had to ask her on that. His face took one of worry as he realized that he could very well be stuck here, and as much as he wanted to stay a little bit longer, he didn't wish to miss out on everything he had planned for his own world.
But that worry got bunked off from his mind when he felt her tail coiling over his knees and starting to envelop his thighs. He could feel the soft scales and the strong muscle press against his skin now, and he had to suppress a shudder from how strongly relaxing it was. He never expected her to be able to do this to him, and it only served to show the queens good nature towards him. He looked up and....he kinda grew some pinkish cheeks from how...close her attractive features were. He could swear that he could smell the peaches off of her dark skin now inches from her face. Still, he couldn't let his mind go to dirty thoughts yet, at least not to a queen. He couched awkwardly and tried to keep his composure. "Well....maybe a room..." He said awkwardly. "...and a guarantee that a certain guard doesn't try to skin me alive." He had to chuckle on that one. "Other than that, I honestly don't know, other than what's going around my legs."
That's when he noticed her eyes glowing, and his face scrunched up in confusion. "Why are your eyes glowing? Is it night vision, or....?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/21/2016 at 22:54:14
"We can see about a room for you. And don't you worry about Denise. She was only afraid that she would be accused of failing her job. But under different circumstances, I'm sure she would be quite taken with you. As for your legs, you'll have to excuse my naughty tail. Sometimes it seems to have a mind of it's own." As she talked, her eyes glowed brighter, slowly taking hold with her hypnotic power. Despite her words, her tail did not show the slightest signs of slowing down, getting a firm grip around his thighs.
"Yesss..." she whispered to him. "Nightvision... It lets me look at you. Now won't you please look at me?" Staring deep enough into her eyes revealed a hidden spiral within. She lifted her arms above her head as she stretched out her lovely figure, her serpentine hips wiggling a bit. Her tail, never stopping its climb, circling around his own hips.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/23/2016 at 01:30:47
Okay, while he was grateful that he wasn't gonna get attacked by an angry guard, it surely didn't ward off his earlier suspicion of the queen being up to something. Just feeling her soft tail enveloping his thighs already heightened his slight anxiety over the intentions this naga had for him. Why was her tail still going over him if she could....wait. Her eyes were glowing brighter than before, and he looked a bit closer to see why they were. He was starting to move his head forward slightly as his eyes looked up to fix themselves upon her own. He kinda started to doubt that he was looking at some sort of night-vision. He just....he couldn't really place a finger on what he was seeing. His eyes widened as he gazed into her shining pupils like a moth to a flame. He didn't really realize that his worries were being slowly eroded due to how calm the lights felt to him.
Just like she said, he kept looking, though he did catch a quick peek at her wiggling her hips at him in a way that made her look more desirable. She didn't seem to bother with his personal boundaries, not that he minded due to...such....what a pretty spiral. His mouth slacked slightly and he stammered out a word or two, trying to comprehend what he was seeing. "What....you...." He stammered out slightly.

"You wanted to ask me something?" Her hips continued to sway just at the edge of his vision. She reached out a hand and gently cupped him under his chin, making sure that his eyes didn't leave hers. The two glowing points of light would not let up on the assault against his mind.
Her tail hadn't let up either. Soon it was around his waist, and she put a halt on the coiling for just a moment. The tip of her tail reached around and brought one of his hands to rest at his side. Then her tail collected the other hand as well. Then with both of them at his sides, her coils resumed winding around him, climbing up his arms and belly.

With his arms now binded to his sides, Harold was helpless against her physical efforts to wrap him up and he could only stand there. He couldn't deny that her coils felt strangely relaxing and strong against his own skin....in a good way. But maybe that was more because her eyes were softening up any resistance to her tails efforts to calm him down. Every time that he produced a though that told him to struggle, another pulse from the glowing eyes washed it away like a rock being eroded by the water. He could only look at her eyes....and...so pretty to him.
Still, that didn't stop him from trying to close one of his eyes as he tried to pull his head away. "You....you lied to me." He said weakly as he tried to move. "You....said...you wouldn't hurt me."

"What?" she asked in shock, surprised by his resistance. His comment actually made her feel a little guilty. She was quickly at his side, cupping his face in her hands as she sought to soothe him.
"No no! I'm not going to hurt you. Please don't be afraid. A human, such as yourself, is far too sacred. Just relax. I promise no harm will come to you."

With his face now in the gentle hands of the naga queen, Harold had mixed feelings about this encounter. Okay, he could consider that she was being sincere in wanting her to relax. But....yeah she was, and her pretty eyes told him so. The poor boy just failed to realize that the more he stared into the glowing eyes, the more his resistance weathered and was washed away. He felt....more peaceful letting his face rest in her gentle hands than before, and he failed to noticed that his one eye that was looking at her was possessing a shrinking pupil. Said pupil went away completely, only to be replaced by a slow, pink spiral that started to overtake his vision. His other eyes started to open and he sank his face a little deeper into her hands.

With the human relaxing little by little in her coils, she found that she could relax a little as well. He had scared her when he accused her of trying to hurt him. This day was sure to go down in history for the lamia people as they day a human reappeared. She didn't want to be known as the queen to foul it up.
She thought she would try to direct his hypnosis a little with soft words. "As my coils climb higher, you feel a comforting warm spread over you. You can rest easy... indeed, sleep. You have nothing to fear from us." By now, the coils were making their way around his shoulders.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 11/05/2016 at 21:19:44
Harold could feel her comfy coils finishing up in wrapping him for his personal peace of mind. Feeling the muscle move and bind itself gently over his own as a show of comfort made him sigh deeply in content. As for his mind, the continued assault on his eyes started to swiftly melt away his earlier resistance, especially when she gently held him. When he kept seeing those pretty colors combined with that alluring voice, he could tell she wasn't lying....right? She had to be telling the truth just from her gentleness....and the colors. His eyes, at this point, were now displaying a steady case of spirals that showed his eventual submission to her. How funny, a human that first came to this world was now in the literal coils of the monarch.
He would suddenly feel a wave of fatigue hit him as the queen soothingly told him to sleep. Yeah....sleep would be nice for him. It didn't take long for him to close his eyes slowly and fall asleep, snoring softly in her coils.

"Good. We can worry about the ceremony tomorrow." she said, lifting him up into the padded seat that was her throne. She took the time to study him further, making sure to put her time to use while he was in her grasp. "You're snoring." she told him lightly. "It isn't polite to snore before the queen. There is a good boy." she teasingly chided him. There wasn't any such rule for good manners, but she thought it was cute.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 11/13/2016 at 17:31:38
As the queen went to study the human in her coils, Harold went to nestle a bit deeper into her coils. He absolutely loved feeling the soft scales rub against his flesh as he slept. Not to mention that her muscles gently holding him felt so great and...he had nothing to say, other than mumbling "sorry" over her chiding his snoring. He kept sleeping, but without the snore, and he even went to rest his head against the coil around his shoulders.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 11/20/2016 at 10:33:05
She gently played with his hair for awhile before falling asleep herself. However, the next morning he would find himself in a very different position.
The first thing he would notice was three lovely ladies crowding in front of him.
"It really is a human."
"Come on, we need to get him ready."
The girls wore simple white dresses, and seemed to be some sort of servants or maids. The second thing he would notice was his arms were being held stretched out, and his legs were too. He was wrapped haphazardly in a few different snake coils, each belonging to one of the girls.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 11/20/2016 at 19:58:44
Throughout most of the night, Harold could only dream of spirals and the image of the beautiful queen herself. His dreams mere representations of what he had experience ever since he managed to teleport himself to this new world. He finally managed to find the one place that had eluded mankind for centuries, and here he was sleeping with the queen of the entire civilization. Even as he slept, his mind went off on what he could learn from this place and what he can do here...here....wait...what was that noise.
When he groggily and slowly opened his eyes, he saw three beautiful women....who were stretching his arms and legs out. Okay, nevermind that these women, as gorgeous as they were, were invading his comfort zone. They were also touching his body with their coils that were soft and gentle, but still weird. He shook his head with a groan and struggled a little.
"What the? What's happening, and what are all of you?" He said a bit groggily.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 11/25/2016 at 21:45:04
"Oh Master, we are here to give you anything that you desire." one of them flirted, drawing herself in really close to his face. She batted her eyes lashes a bit at him. The second shoved her aside.
"What she means is, we are here to see to it that you have everything you need to get ready for the ceremony." As she was shoved aside, the coils of the first withdrew from him, and the second's pulled away as well.
"We have drawn up a bath for you to clean up with." explained the third. Sure enough, a bathtub was in the center of the room with steam rising out of it. A bar of soap was placed into one of his hands. "A change of clothes is on the table." There was a pile of folded clothes that seemed to be made of white silk.
"You have half an hour to get ready. Please let us know if we can get you anything." The three girls let him go and slithered out of the room, closing the door behind them.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 11/26/2016 at 00:40:18
There were a huge myriad of questions that swirled in his mind as it pertained to...whatever just happened in front of him. But the entire event just went by so fast that even the acts of telling him about the ceremony felt like a blur to. He wasn't even gonna internally comment on that one (admittedly cute) naga woman that tried to flirt with him. He kinda didn't had the proper response to such a request. But now here he was, in a rather-nice-looking bathroom of sorts with a bar of soap and robes for him to wear. The only thing he could wonder was the ceremony.
"What ceremony though?" He asked himself quietly. "What does it entail? I guess I have no choice but to find out. No sense in being stressed about it." With that, he went to un-dress and take his bath.
It took at least twenty-five minutes, but he eventually was done and had dressed himself in the silk pieces of clothing. His legs and waist were covered in the soft fabric, but his chest was exposed partially in the middle and their was a silk veil around his neck. He looked like an arabic prince, if anything. It was comfy though.

Post by Perilous on 11/27/2016 at 22:41:07
Having waited the 25 minutes outside the door, the lamia girls were growing impatient. They practically jumped at him the moment he opened the door.
"So handsome."
"Cleans up well."
"But we cannot be late."
Two of them grabbed an arm and were practically dragging him out of the private rooms and down the hallways. The third was closely inspecting him as they went. She made minor adjustments to his outfit, fixing his hair, removing a speck of dust from his sleeve, and throwing a sash around his waist. Anything she could think of to make him as presentable as possible. They led him past the audience hall, and took him to a small room where a familiar sight waited him. It was the lovely queen, and she had similar maids dashing about for her.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 11/28/2016 at 22:00:00
...And here he went again, being carried away by these lovely naga maids without giving him anytime to react accordingly. He kinda was slightly use to them getting close to his face after what happened nearly an half-hour ago, but they still treated him as an item. He could barely let out of gasp and a "hey!" as they quickly dragged him away. As one of them adjusted his body and clothing for improvements, he started to speak with a little annoyance as he was dragged off. "Look ladies..." He said before feeling the sash around him. "I appreciate that your trying to help, but honestly I can fix....myself...up." His words of protest finally died out upon seeing the queen, in all her tall and beautiful glory again.
"Hi..." He said in shock as he gazed at her body, mainly her hips. "Didn't expect this day to go so fast."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 11/30/2016 at 10:57:49
The Queen had just finished putting on an elaborate headdress. The maid girls giggled and shoved him into the room. The Queen looked him over, putting her hands on her hips. "I think that will do," she said looking him over.
"I don't think you will have to say anything... unless you really want to. Stay behind me until I present you." She said, as if this explained everything. She grabbed his hand and slithered over to one of the doors. Throwing them open, bright sunshine flooded in. Just outside the door was a grand balcony. And just beyond that was a huge crowd, all gathered to watch.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/01/2016 at 02:38:07
Once he was pushed inside the room, he could only look at the fully-dressed queen once again. It still was hard to summarize her beauty, especially with her dress. But that wasn't important right now, and just stay behind her? Was this the ceremony she was talking about? Well, he was being pulled along to a grand balcony....and a ton of her kind. Oh dear....
He didn't hesitate to hide behind the Queen, waiting for her to present him. He was secretly excited about all of this, but what would her people think of him?
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 12/05/2016 at 22:58:09
The ceremony opened with a couple of lamia girls performing some sort of ritual dance. Once the dance was concluded, the queen slithered up to give her speech. She started talking about how blessed they were. Their prophecies predicted the return of a human, and how that day was upon them. Some had spent entire lifetimes waiting for the prophesy to come true. Then, just as some might start to wonder how long she was going to talk for, she presented him in front of the large gathered crowd. There was a great roar of approval from the crowd and thunderous applause.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/08/2016 at 20:36:30
While the ritual dance was commencing, Harold had to let a sliver of fear come to his mind. He didn't really know how receptive the queens people would be of her presence. His experience with one of the guards made him wonder if not all of the nagas saw him as a figure of the prophecy, but more of a thief. He surely hoped that not all of them thought he was that, or at least a few. He really didn't want to find out about the few nagas that despised his existence. He could then feel the queens tail gently pushing him forward and face the crowd front-and-center. When the whole crowd shouted and roared in approval and celebration, that certainly did well to lift his nervous spirits and make him smile. They actually accepted him, and were waiting for long.
This was really a great day for the young man, even if it came in the most bizarre circumstances. He waited for the crowd to simmer down slightly before clearing his throat and starting to speak, making sure he was just loud enough to be heard.
"On behalf of my race." He said with a tone that expressed calm and some jittery excitement at the same time. "I am honored at being the first human to confirm the evidence of a race my kind only though of as myths and legends. I look forward to getting to know the people and the culture here, and I hope me walking on two legs isn't a weird thing, heh. That's...honestly all I got. Thank you."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 12/17/2016 at 22:36:14
His words were greeted with silence from the crowd. It wasn't exactly an amazing speech. Later on, their historians would arrange his words around a little to sound a bit nobler. At any rate, the queen started to applaud loudly behind him, which snapped the crowd out of their shock and they applauded as well.
There were several other speeches that followed, put on by other lamia women of high rank. Most of whom hadn't even gotten a chance to meet him yet. When the ceremony and the speeches had finished, the crowd below turned into a massive party. Meanwhile, the nobility enjoyed a large feast. The queen sat down to her own designated place. Harold was allowed to do as he pleased. Most of the noble women were clamoring for the chance to meet and talk with him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/19/2016 at 23:55:39
Harold was mainly walking around the table just to see what the festive night had to offer. He really admired the vast works of wall art that dotted the palace walls. From colorful portrayals of naga women juggling fire, to the depictions of a large battle in the sea, there seemed to be no shortage of exotic wonders that even the walls could show. But even as he looked around, a small part of him did feel slightly un-comfortable at all the attention he was getting. This was to be expected from the only human in this realm, that was for sure. But could he really benefit from a nice room to sleep for the night and not be assaulted by one naga woman every minute with a question? Possibly....they were all gorgeous and all....he really needed to not let perverted thoughts get into his head. When he finally could be alone in the hall for one second, he sighed.
"You know..." He said as he re-did his silk sash. "I wonder if my room has any sound proof devices."
He then decided to go get some food, as even with the amount of people around, he did feel a bit hungry. So he went to get himself a plate and eyed the smoking pile of ribs in particular. He wonder how they tasted.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 12/21/2016 at 10:21:13
Seeming to appear out of nowhere, a serving girl bowed to him. "The walls and doors of the palace are made of thick stone. You should find your room quite silent. If anything is not to your liking, we will get it fixed immediately." The place was just crawling with people for the festivities, it seems he couldn't find anywhere truly alone even if it seemed like it.
Luckily the noble women at the feast were better behaved than a flock of fan girls. They gave him space to move around, and none of them tried to grab him. With some effort he could make his way to the ribs.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/25/2016 at 14:41:32
Harold smiled at the serving girl and respectfully bowed. "I'm fine right now, thank you." But when he turned, his smile faded slightly. He highly doubted that having a room that would be sound-roof would prevent a bunch of fans from seeing him. He wouldn't mind the attention, but the whole city just going to see him would be too much. On the other hand, it would be extremely rude of him to just abandon the party when it was all for him. Besides, the nobles were at least letting him have some breathing room.
After some effort, he got some ribs, corn, and even some peaches. It all smelled delicious and he couldn't wait to eat it all. Looking back at the table, he went to sit down right next to the queen, a rather surprising action for him. But hey, he was trying to be polite, and he trusted the queen when it came to not acting like a fan.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 12/29/2016 at 22:19:56
"Enjoying the festivities?" the queen asked lightly. The trouble with ribs, corn and peaches were that none of them were very tidy things to eat. The nobles carefully picked at the food, attempting to eat it all as daintily as possible. Apparently this was quite common for them. None were more cleanly than the queen, herself. She somehow managed to dribble not a drop of sauce or juice on herself, but eating was slow going. Meanwhile the nobles decided not to pester him with the queen next to him. Several lined up at the other side of the table to ogle him while he ate.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/31/2016 at 15:25:51
He looked up and gave her a polite smile. He tried to ignore the stares of some of the noble girls as he picked up a rib. "Oh, it's great and all..." he said humbly. "...but I gotta say, I'm surprised your not the least bit...bothered by the noble girls looking at me like they want to steal me soon." He then leaned in to whisper something to her briefly. "I personally think that the one the blonde braided hair is gonna snatch me up the minute I leave." He did say this with a joking smile, but considering the ogling looks, it was hard to tell if that was even a joke or something real serious. Well, in any case, it was time to eat.
He picked up a rib and began to bite into it. After taking the first bite, his lips were covered in some sort of sauce that was really sweet. This...these had to be the tastiest ribs he ever ate in his life! He quickly chowed down on the rib, and when he was done, his lips were covered in the sauce. He looked down and smiled nervously, looking for something to wipe off his mouth. So much for trying to eat like them.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/02/2017 at 00:25:19
If he had been anyone else, he probably wouldn't get to address such things to the queen. "Why should I worry? You are more than capable of picking any girl that you like. Lady Christine is a respectable member of the court." Though as she said this, she seemed to find something very interesting about her drinking glass. She seemed to address it rather than talking directly to him. Clearly his question made her a little uncomfortable.
No one brought up his table etiquette, though it did seem to draw some stares from some of the lamia. The blonde one in particular giggled when she managed to meet his gaze. He was only given enough time to eat his meal before he was being swamped by women again.
"Harold! Do you have any plans for after dinner?"
"No way. He already agreed to join me for an evening stroll. Didn't you, Harold?"
"You simply must come to my party next week. Only the most important people will be there."
Not to mention all the questions about human fashion, music, and dance.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/05/2017 at 14:35:50
He lurched back slightly at the group of woman that swarmed him again. He did try his best to answer each question about human culture, but he could barely get a sentence out before another question would be thrown at him. Some even looked like they where waiting to snatch him up the minute they got close enough. He could feel some girls tail trying to coil around his ankles and pull slightly, and he had to pull back. How was he gonna handle this. Well, there was one thing...
"Ladies? Ladies!" He said a bit loudly to get their attention. He also took the bout of expected silence to quickly wipe his face with a napkin to get rid of the sauce from his face. "I...I would prefer an evening stroll, just so I get to know the place." Yeah, he was gonna have to deal with an interested naga girl, but it was better than dealing with an entire crowd. Plus, it he was planning to explore the place outside of the palace for a little bit.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/11/2017 at 22:36:13
The lamia who had suggested the walk was quickly at his side. She took his arm and was starting to drag him away. A split second later, all of the other lamias had noticed his sudden interest. He was quickly swamped with all sorts of requests.
"I know the castle better than anyone... besides the Queen."
"Really Harold! Let me show you the gardens. They are quite romantic!"
"He likes long walks by the moat! Everyone will want to know!"
Only the queen was too dignified to say anything. Everyone else was clamoring for the chance to meet him. The girl who grabbed him managed to shove them off. "Sorry ladies. He's mine." She shoved him through a door and quickly latched it behind her so no one else could follow. "Now then. It's just you and me. Anywhere that you want to go?" She kept a hold of his arm, but wasn't dragging him along anymore.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/12/2017 at 19:09:51
Holy jeez, just how strong were these noble woman? He could understand that they would be stronger than humans given their toned muscles, but did the girl really had to nearly pull his arm out of his socket? He barely let out a small grunt of pain before the girls once again swamped him with requests about where to walk. He was trying to say something, but once again, the girls questions slammed into her like bullets and he couldn't keep up with his answers.
Thankfully, the girl who suggested the walk managed to pull him out of the frenzy and they were soon in an empty hall, just the two of them. Now, what would be the first place to go for a stroll with this...woman whose name he didn't know.
"Well...." He said with a finger on his chin in thought. "How about you show me the gardens? I certainly would love to know how your race treats nature." He then grinned politely and used a free hand to gently grasp her own around his arm. "But since you know my name, can you tell me yours?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/14/2017 at 22:05:42
"Whatever you want." she said, giggling a bit. She could hardly believe her luck that her confidence had managed to net him in her arms now.
"My name is Sabine." She was obviously one of the upper class, though her outfit was a bit plainer than most. It was light blue, which matched her short hair. Her tail was a slightly darker shade of blue.
"And here we are." she said, as they found themselves in a massive garden. There were plants and greenery everywhere, both seated in the ground and hanging from the walls.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/15/2017 at 21:39:14
Harold smiled politely at the name. How quaint and elegant, at least to him. He shook her hand and gave her a silly bow. He figured that the noble wouldn't mind. She didn't look like the type that fretted over trivial matter like some rich people do. "A pleasure to meet you." He said with a warm smile before taking a look at her features a bit more.
He had to admit, she looked pretty unique and...cute. He found her pretty cute, okay? Was he not allowed to indulge himself in taking in her features, especially since the majority of the lamias were interested in him? Okay, other than that, he found her blue tail to also be quite nice as well. It really complemented the subtle nature of her. Okay, he better stop now.
When they got to the garden, his jaw slackened in pure amazement over how plentiful the flowers were. There were flowers of all kinds, from simple blue-bells to vines with blossoms that reached the ceiling. Some of them weren't even from Earth, like strange blue roses that could float in the wind or some that even glowed. He went over to a pot of sunflowers and gently picked on up.
"This is incredible." He said in awe. "How long did this all take?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/15/2017 at 22:01:11
By now, Harold would have noticed a few things that all the lamia wore in common. Obviously, none of them wore pants or dresses, though a few had skirts that decorated their transition from scales to skin. Most wore tops that left their hips and bellies exposed for unhindered movement. From there, the tops ranged from plain to highly decorative, from skimpy to more modest. The nobles wore more decorative jewelry and sometimes articles of clothes to decorate their tails. Sabine's top was a little more modest, yet playful. It allowed her belly button to peak out at times, and showed off her hips well. She was upper class, but not highly decorated.
Much like her outfit, Sabine seemed kind of playful. She wasn't shy but wasn't overly confident either. His acceptance of her statement of spending time with her had caught her off guard.
"Oh I don't remember the exact history." she said, not wanting to bore him with the details. She had no idea he was a history fanatic. "It's been around at least several generations. Obviously, this amount of plants needs constant care. It is one of the prettier parts of the palace grounds."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/16/2017 at 00:47:03
"Yes, I could see that." He said with a wide smile over the ancient garden. He couldn't believe that a magnificent garden like this was over several generations old. To be maintained for decades must've been quite a stupendous undertaking, and with such floral beauty to grace the walls too. "I guess your civilization obviously values the beauty of nature. Where I come from, you have so many urban centers and industry." He said this with a bit of a frown. "Not to say we don't have forests or flowers in our world, but this..." He sighed happily and looked at the sun-flower in his hands.
He then walked over and gave Sabine the flower. It was then he began to realize how exotic her dress was. He could clearly see the nice hips and muscles from below the top. She did look modest, and that made her look a bit cute.
He coughed a little as he looked back at her face. "So, I guess to your room then." He said with a slight blush. It was pathetic, but what could he say that wasn't awkward for him?
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/16/2017 at 14:31:59
She gasped a little in shock. "Oh my! You humans are quite... forward." Had he been anyone else, he might have gotten slapped. She looked around at the gardens a bit. "How about we stay here for the time being. With everyone else at the feast, I don't think we will run into anyone else. So what is it like, Harold? In the human world? Is it different from here?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/16/2017 at 15:08:58
His eyes widened in sheer shock and horror as he realized what he'd done. It was a miracle that he didn't get slapped for saying something like that. Okay, it was taken out of context, but it's not like she knew. "Woah! That's NOT what I meant!" He said quickly while raising his hands in front of him defensively. "I meant just to see what a nobles room looked like. We humans are more modest about...things like that." He said this while looking down in embarrassment. "Look, I'm sorry okay? Of course we can talk about my world for a bit, and then I would like to see what your room looks like." He said this as calmly as possible while looking at her in the eyes again. He didn't want to foul this up.
"Well, it is in a lot of ways." He started to say while sitting down on the ground. "For one thing, we are much more advanced in technology. We have cell-phones, computers, and other digital wonders for us to talk to people everywhere and for re-creation. We also have industry that allow us to gather resources for everyone who needs it, and there are dozens of nations with their own governments. I assume you run as some sort of tribal system like the Aztecs?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/16/2017 at 15:28:32
She looked at him curiously, not understanding half the things he was talking about. "Cell phone? What's an Aztec?" she asked. "I suppose we might be tribal. Maybe." She didn't seem to know that there could be any other way. "It sounds complicated." she admitted at last.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/16/2017 at 15:52:50
He let out a heavy sigh at her confused look and rubbed his temples lightly. Of course she wouldn't know all of these things, and he didn't have his cell phone with him. Maybe it was in whatever room they would give him. "Okay then, maybe you can tell me about your society a little bit." He said while patting the empty ground in a gesture for the naga to sit down with him. "Perhaps it's not that complicated." He said with a chuckle. "What do you nobles do with your spare time?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/17/2017 at 00:01:59
Sabine loosely coiled around herself and sat down beside him. "Well, I mean there is the usual talk about the latest fashion or gossip. Most of the upper class ladies spend time doing some sort of recreational activity. They all try to get their physical exercise, despite not doing any physical labor. Mostly that sort of thing is for the lower class. And we all follow the guidance of the queen, of course. Outside the palace are vast sprawling deserts."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/17/2017 at 15:56:24
"Sprawling deserts?" He said with an amused look. "With all of these plants, I have to think were in some sort of oasis of sorts." It would make sense though, as there would be no way for the plants in the garden to survive without some water source. Plus, they would have to have some sort of advanced irrigation system to sustain such a large population of laminas here. Speaking of laminas, he actually needed to ask a question that appeared when he was falling asleep in the queens coils.
"By the way, when I had an audience with the queen, she had something in her eyes. It was...relaxing and strange, like I wasn't in control of my mindset. Is that power common in among your people?"

"Yes. That is it exactly. The palace was built around an oasis. And it's partly what makes the gardens so amazing."
At the mention of something in their eyes, Sabine looked a little mischievous. "I'm sure I don't know what you mean. What do you remember about it?" she asked innocently, but her attempts at innocence were ruined by a flirty smile. Privately she wondered about what the queen tried to pull on him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/24/2017 at 09:24:04
Oh man, just seeing that flirtatious smile made Harold realize that Sabine knew exactly what he was talking about. Did she have the same ability, and if so, would she use it on him by surprise? Now wasn't really the time to act nervous in front of the girl, so he might as well tell her. "Well..." He started to say while turning a bit away and rubbing the back "Her eyes were glowing and I felt compelled to keep looking. The more I stared, the more I felt...at peace really. I even saw spirals in her eyes and the last thing I felt before falling asleep was her coils keeping me warm and safe."
He actually blushed a little at this. He had to admit, that whole experience did feel good.

"Really? The queen did all that?" she asked. She was a bit surprised to find this out, but she supposed it only made sense. He was the human from the prophecy, after all. "Are you sure she doesn't just have nice eyes? Maybe you could look at my eyes and tell me if mine compare or not." With that, he could feel something wrap around and turn his head in her direction. She had lovely blue eyes, and they seemed to glow with an internal light... and it wasn't just her glowing personality either.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/26/2017 at 23:40:44
Nice eyes? Well, how did the conversation go from hypnosis from her just having nice eyes. Her eyes did look really pretty, about as much as a queens looks is suppose to be precieved. He even remembered the thick lines of eyeliner the queen wore that made the majestic hue stand out more. He was about to reply before he felt something smooth and gentle wrap around his head and turn it forward. He very much was about to protest slightly, but then he saw the same glow as before. There, in her blue eyes, was the same alluring glow that he saw in the queens eyes.
It certainly did catch him off guard to some degree, but it did confirm his suspicions about the hidden powers these women had. "I...I..knew it." He stammered out as the bright color of blue began to probe at his mind. "Your eyes...do have... a pretty glow to them....like a lake." He said this while a light blush dusted his cheeks. This glowing sensation was slowly breaking down his mental barriers like before. He tried to move his head away, but the colors....kinda made him slow on the movements.
"Woah...I must admit that your eyes are literally radiant."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/29/2017 at 22:28:41
"Oh my! You certainly know how to flatter a girl." she flirted with him a bit, pretending as if she didn't know what he was talking about. She leaned in, gazed deep into his eyes, and rested her chin in her hand. His expression of a lake was almost exactly spot-on. Her gaze seemed to grow deeper and deeper. Her hypnosis didn't change color, but ripples began to radiate outward from her pupils. It looked just like ripples on a pond. "Go on Harold. Tell me more. Flattery will get you everywhere," she teased, knowing it was going to be harder and harder for him to concentrate.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/30/2017 at 00:33:03
His chest felt a deep warmth emit inside when she carried that cute smile from his (seeming) flattery. He was saying the truth though, and the ripples only served to add to the effect. Even as her head moved closer to his, he did next to nothing to avoid her eye contact as her hypnosis drilled deeper into his head. Any other normal person who did mind some sense of danger (not that she showed any) would try to shake out of this and tell her to stop. But Harold, now already ensnared in the preemptive mental strike on his mind, could only stare deeper into her shiny blues. Indeed, the blue eyes were quite deep in the blue hue, and the way they rippled felt like gentle waves that weathered at rock to a smooth surface, sort of like his brain.
Any thoughts he had against what she as doing were slowly weathered and washed out like a rock in the sea. The more her color rippled, the more that feeling of calm and pleasure washed over him. Eventually, it was getting harder for him to form a more coherent thought for her, much less against her. With all the nice ripples going into him, he failed to realize what was happening to his own eyes. His pupils were shirking slowly, and a lone band of blue that matched her eyes slowly poured out of his own eyes. "Well....I...like the ripples...how...I can't think straight." He said with a slight sense of drowsiness in his voice.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 02/05/2017 at 10:05:15
"Oh? Is it becoming hard to think? Well perhaps, keep looking at the ripples and let me know if anything occurs to you?" She teased him further, knowing that he was soon going to have trouble concentrating on what she was saying. She placed both hands on either side of his face. She tiled his head up so that he would keep staring into her eyes as she moved in closer.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 02/05/2017 at 11:22:23
He really blanked out from every word she just said just then except for the ripples. Her voice sounded more and more far away the more the hypnotic ripples resonated into his eyes. But even so, he couldn't really look away. The colors just looked so pretty and deep, as if he was staring at the bottom of the sea and seeing nothing but clear blue. He didn't even notice that his eyes had lost their pupils entirely, replaced by a steady wave of blue rings that copied her own. He couldn't....he really...couldn't.....
"I...it's great mistress..." He slurred quietly, resting his face in her gentle hands as he looked back at her ripples more. He felt the warmth all over his body now, like he was at peace for a long time, or at least when she was done with him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 02/08/2017 at 21:05:19
She laughed a little at his subservience when he referred to her as 'mistress'. She was content to allow him to soak up as many spirals as he could manage. However, the two of them were interrupted. Some ways away, she could hear the voices of a couple of lamia talking. This was a very bad time for the two of them to be interrupted. In his vulnerable state, he could be easy prey for some of the more aggressive ladies. She put her finger to his lips to silence anything further he was going to say. Then she quietly got up, and beckoned him to follow as she led him through the gardens, avoiding anyone else.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 02/09/2017 at 09:11:47
Her little laugh sounded just like heaven to him at this point. He wanted to do anything to please his new-found mistress if it meant soaking in as many spirals as he could. He wanted to help her out...the spirals were just all he could see now. The blue ripples were now part of his vision, and he could only see a long tunnel of beautiful spirals with Sabine's pretty face at the end of it. That was when he heard some other lamias talking and coming their way. Would they try to take him away from his mistress? Did they have a stronger brand of hypnosis that would ensnared his mind from Sabines ripples? Probably, but he wanted to stay with her...with his mistress. He blushed slightly as he felt her finger on his lips, a sign to keep quiet as he stood up quietly like a emotionless puppy. He went to follow her obediently deeper into the gardens.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 02/11/2017 at 23:33:04
She led him around the gardens before quietly slipping back into the castle. She was careful to led him around, careful to avoid the celebration and the mob that would bring. After a while, the hypnotic spell she had him on was slowly starting to slip away. Not knowing where else to go, she brought him to the residential section. She eventually came upon the room she was looking for. She opened the doors for both of them to slip inside, and hastily shut them behind her. It seemed he was going to end up in her private quarters after all.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 02/15/2017 at 17:20:58
He didn't really care where he was going right now. There was no point to think about it anyway, for the spirals that encompassed his vision to where he could literally only see her beautiful face at the end of a multi-color tunnel. With every step of the way, Harold let out a small grin on his face grow slightly. It just felt like walking into heaven, whatever heaven did look like in this place. However, even he had to admit that some of the spirals were beginning to fade slightly, and like a television losing it's signal, the colors started to break into static with their effects fading. His thoughts began to create some sort of doubt about what was going on and the fading of the spirals made him see the room he was in...wait.
Wait a minute....why was he in a room and not at the garden? The shutting of the door fizzled out the remaining spirals and he groaned and stumbled back at the backlash. He felt like he just came out of a haunted sleep.
"What....what happened?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 02/21/2017 at 22:58:28
"Oh ummm..." she said, not sure how to explain it to him. It felt a little like getting caught in the act. "Well... there were a couple other girls in the garden as well, so I decided to bring you here instead." She glanced around her living space, not having expected to bring company over. By sheer stroke of luck, he managed to see what their living quarters looked like.
She was interrupted having to explain further, when the door opened. On of the serving girls slithered inside. "Miss Sabine, I have brought... Oh my! I'm sorry Miss Sabine, I did not know you had company. I'll just..."
"No! It's quite alright. I just brought him in from the gardens." Sabine hastily reassured her servant. The girl started at him wide eyed in disbelief. "Just please don't tell anyone that he is here."
"Oh... of course," she said bowing, her expression even more shocked now.
"No! Not like THAT..." Sabine face palmed, having trouble explaining why she brought the human back to her room. Meanwhile, Harold was quickly becoming outnumbered.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 02/22/2017 at 18:19:28
With his mind no longer under the nobles spell, Harold took the time to recover from his drowsiness by checking out her room. Her room in particular looked pretty fancy, which wasn't surprising with her status as a noble. Her bed was large enough to handle two people, with a fluffy mattress and tucked in sheets with silk covered in blue coloring and three pillows that were created with silk as well. Made him really wonder where they were getting the silk from in this oasis.
Both sides of the bed had a few rugs that ranged from purple to red to even mixed and made with a fine linen that looked really groomed. Beyond that, the rooms were really fine, made of white marble, and finely polished with a bright sheen. A symbol of a noble indeed, and with a few items to match. He made a little "huh" notion at this and went to turn to Sabine. "Nice room you got-" That's when his eyes focused on the servant girl that just came in, and probably just exposed where he was.
"What....okay, wait a minute, can't I at least get a break and talk with the noble some more?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 02/27/2017 at 22:45:36
The serving girl gasped in shock as he spoke to her. "Of course, master." She bowed deeply and quickly left the room. That left just Sabine and Harold alone together. Sabine hadn't even had time to properly explain why he was here with her. "I'm glad you like it." she said, looking over the room. She didn't think it was all that impressive, but was grateful he seemed to take an interest in it. "Is there anything I can get you?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/02/2017 at 21:41:35
"No, it's quite fine. I just had some of the finest ribs you could get me." He said with a grin as he made his way over to her bed. He placed a hand on the mattress to feel the fabric. Just as he thought, the finest silken fabric any noble can ask for. He didn't expect any less from the place like this. He sat down on the edge of the bed and gave her a curious look. He had to marvel at the size of her tail and the like....oh wait, he had a question.
"Say.." He began to say. "Are there any males of your kind in this kingdom? I imagine you've had some way to make families."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/02/2017 at 22:22:22
She shook her head, "No there aren't any male lamia. Once upon a time, they said we used to steal human males away... Or more likely they came willingly. But there there hasn't been a male in thousands of years." She playfully leered at him, but she couldn't keep it up. She ended up laughing to herself.
"Well it really is very simple. When two lamia women really, really love each other... They craft a magic spell. And that is how babies are born. Why? How do humans do it?" She spoke as if magic spells were perfectly natural. However, he was saved from having to explain further by yet another knock at the door.
"I wonder who that could be at this hour?" She got up and slithered over to the door. While she stepped away, there came a light tapping sound at the sole window in her living quarters.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/03/2017 at 23:15:10
He moved way back at the leering towards him. Okay, why was it getting so weird right now? "Now wait a min-" He was cut off by the lamia laughing her butt off at the joke and he let out a sigh and a glare at this. "Don't do that." He said crossly, though his brows did lifted up at the most bizarre way their society made babies he had ever heard. They had magic and that's how they had kids? Okay...no honestly he could take that. First, he just proved a civilization that was runned by beautiful nagas existed and now magic existed here. Yeah, he could handle it.
He suddenly heard the slight knocking on the window and he went over to it cautiously.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/04/2017 at 23:54:45
The maid had brought some items back with her. "Oh I thought you might need these if the human is going to be spending the night." She laid out some sheets and bedding.
"Really that wasn't necessary, he probably won't be spending the night. He has his own room... Wait! Where did he go?"
A few moments before the two girls discovered his sudden disappearance...
As Harold was lured to away, a serpentine tail opened window the and it slide inside. It quickly wrapped around his mouth to keep him quiet. Quickly, a few more coils wrapped around him and pulled him out through the open window. He ended up upside down as he was lifted high above the palace grounds, and up one set of windows above Sabine's.
He soon found himself face-to-face with a familiar face. It was that blonde from dinner. What was her name? Christine? The one the queen had said was a respected member of the court? She was studying him over once again, but this time he was in her clutches.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/05/2017 at 10:48:17
He didn't have any time to react to the large snake tail that wrapped around his mouth and pulled him out of the room through the window. His arms failed wildly for a brief moment until he felt a few more strong coils bind his arms, chest, and legs tightly, making him create a muffled gasp at this. He wildly was flipped upside-down as he was hoisted up above Sabines room. He wiggled feebly against the coils, but there wasn't any point. The coils muscles were too strong and they just tightened a bit more at his slightest movements, making him whimper slightly in apprehension.
Suddenly, his eyes were face-to-face with a familiar face from the party. Wait, he knew her! She was one of the important nagas of the court! Regardless of the fact, he certainly didn't appreciate being caught and dragged up here like a piece of meat. He mumbled crossly and wiggled against the coils. He wanted to get his bearings, but his situation made his efforts look quite comical.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/05/2017 at 11:02:28
"He wouldn't just leave!" Sabine said, starting to get really worried. The two spotted the open window, and curiously looked out of it. It seemed like the only explanation, but by the time they got there, they couldn't see him at all.
Meanwhile, up above, Christine shut the window so as not to be disturbed. Her blonde hair fell all around her face. She was wearing a soft black top that slyly covered her belly, but left the sides of her waist open. It wasn't too different than anything else the lamia women wore, but seemed to be their equivalent of their 'little black dress'. She also wore long black gloves that went up to her biceps.
"Was that Sabine boring you? How about you come spend a little time with me?" Her tail removed itself from his mouth.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/07/2017 at 08:45:19
Harold had to give the naga woman an incredulous look. Granted, she looked beautiful with the black dress hugging her figure and the blond hair covering her face, but that didn't excuse what she did just now. Why would she ever try to justify kidnapping him, even when he wasn't even bored with Sabine? With his mouth un-covered, he could only scoff slightly.
"What? No!" He said angrily as he struggled slightly against her coils. "I wasn't even bored with Sabine! I just went to the window to see what the tapping was, and then you just flat-out kidnapped me! I don't care how high of a position you may have, that doesn't give you the right to nab me and then try to act like it was okay! In my culture, kid-napping someone is rude and illegal!"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/08/2017 at 01:54:56
The blonde lamia looked shocked at this. "I am so sorry, my lord. It was not my intention to kidnap you against your will. You are more than welcome to leave if you wish," she said uncoiling from him. "I only meant to provide you a way out, if you wanted it." The pretty blonde looked sad and kind of hurt by his accusations. On one hand, she might really mean her apology. On the other hand, she might be trying to manipulate him to get on his good side. Since he was "the chosen one", he technically outranked her. Upsetting him would hurt her standing among the nobility. Either way, it was clear that she intended to get some alone time with him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/08/2017 at 09:30:16
Once the calm deposition of himself finally set it, his angry huffing turned into a heavy sigh. Oh, he really stay angry at a cute naga girl like this blond one was in front of him. Besides, she did at least apologize about the whole kid-napping bit, and was allowing him to leave. But on the other hand, she probably could be trying to manipulate his feelings so that he could stick around. Either way, her little stunt did leave a slightly tainted impression, but he didn't want to feel rude in front of the woman who released him and allowed him to go. He at least could just give her some advice and get her name, so that way, they could have some alone time under a more favorable circumstance. Speaking of which, why was he called "my lord"? Well, he might as well ask the queen about that, as she might have greater knowledge about that bit.
"Look..." He said gently as he laid a hand on her thick coils. "Next time, if you want to talk to me, just ask me first. Now, I want to get back to Sabine, but I'll see you later. Sorry for blowing up on you." With that, he went to take his leave towards her door, but not before asking for one thing. "Oh, what's your name? Mines Harold."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/08/2017 at 10:17:21
Despite her offer to let him go, she really didn't have any intention of doing so. However, she had to be careful about hurting the chosen one. She slithered over and braced herself against the door. "Christina, my lord." She adopted an innocent pose as she stood between him and the door. Then her eyes began to spiral. She wasn't going to let him pick Sabine over her.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/08/2017 at 14:40:29
Harold could only stop when Christina tried to pull off the innocent card at the door, as if she wasn't trying to block his way out. Okay, now he was starting to get worried. Was this one of the more aggressive nagas that she should've been warned about. His thought was interrupt by the spirals catching into his eyes. He locked on to them and...and...he instantly moved his eyes away and covered them with his hand. He had already been hypnotized twice by the queen and Sabine. He was not gonna fall victim for it again.
"Thank you Christina, but can you please let me go?" He said as politely as he could, not willing to look at her eyes.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/08/2017 at 22:56:37
"I don't know what you mean. Won't you look at me when I'm speaking to you, my lord? It makes me feel unwanted..." she pouted, but was aggressively trying to force the hypnosis on him. However, right at that moment, there came a knock at the door.
"Harold. Are you in there?" It was Sabine. Christina grew upset. She knew it wasn't going to work out well for her. She roughly grabbed him by the arm, and threw the door open behind her. Then she shoved Harold out the door, and into Sabine's surprised arms. Without a word, the door quickly closed shut. It seemed like that was the end of the matter.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/09/2017 at 09:41:57
A big wave relief washed over him once he heard Sabines concerned voice. Here he was, just trying to avoid Christinas hypnotic gaze, and the noble he liked talking to managed to find him. He wasn't even gonna question how she managed to know he was in this room. But then, he felt a shooting pain as he felt the aggressive member of the court pull on his arm hard and threw him right into Sabines arms. With the door slamming shut and the threat now behind him (literally), he looked at the awkward hug around himself and he chuckled nervously.
"W-we were just talking, and I told her to apologize for that whole fiasco." He said nervously.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/09/2017 at 22:07:28
"I'm so glad you are ok!" Sabine said, setting him back on his feet. "I figured you must be in the room directly above mine. Down below would have been harder to pull off. And I hope you don't think too badly of her. It was uncalled for, but Lady Christina isn't used to not getting her way."
"May I get the Master anything?" Sabine's serving girl asked. The three of them wandered back down the "stairs" to her quarters. The lamia's didn't really have stairs since they didn't have legs. It was more like a ramp, in the general shapes of human stairs.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/10/2017 at 22:06:44
Harold went up the ramp-like stairs towards Sabines room, kind of amazed at how fine-tuned the stairs were. Even with a ramp, it was well-polished and all of that....did he really just spend a minute talking about stairs? No matter, they would learn more interesting things soon enough. As they neared Sabines room, he turned to the servant girl and gave her a kind smile.
"A glass of water will be fine, thank you." He said calmly.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/11/2017 at 12:06:01
She bowed and slithered off to fulfill his request. The human and the lamia noble retired to the relative safety of her room. However, it was getting late into the evening.
"That's quite enough excitement for one night. Harold, will you be staying for the night or would you prefer to return to your own room?" Right about that time, there serving girl brought him a glass of water.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/11/2017 at 13:23:57
Harold went over to the girl and took the glass of water with a smile on his face. "Thank you." He said kindly before taking a nice sip and turning towards Sabine. "If you don't mind, I would like to stay with you for tonight." He laughed slightly. "I really don't want to run into some more aggressive girls that want me as my hypnotic toy for the night."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/11/2017 at 23:37:00
Without even being instructed, the serving girl brought spare bedding, blankets, pillows, and a pad and quickly setup a makeshift bed for him. That isn't to say that it wasn't fancy or wasn't comfortable.
"Will that be all, Master and Mistress?" Sabine waved her off. "Thank you, that will be all." With that, the serving girl left to retire for the night. It was just the two of them again, preparing for their sleepover.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/12/2017 at 12:15:06
Okay, this was now starting to get awkward. He had a pretty noble naga in front of him and he didn't know what else he can do. He chuckled nervously and drank some of the water before setting it down near his makeshift bed. "Well..." He said nervously. "I suppose it's time to say goodnight and all."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/14/2017 at 01:12:35
"Good night." she said, curling around herself on her bed. Any other girl in the kingdom would have given up everything to keep him in their rooms. She didn't seem to mind him around, and didn't make it any more awkward than it was. Of course if he needed help getting to sleep... all he had to do was ask.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/14/2017 at 19:25:29
Harold went to lay himself over the make-shift bed that was provided for him and pulled the blanket over his body. He wondered if he could see the outside of the palace tomorrow. But as he tried to get some sleep and sank into the silky-soft padding, the thought of being some sort of chosen one worked upon his mind. What did the people here mean by the chosen one? He certainly was a visitor from a faraway dimension, but being an explorer didn’t meant that he was some sort of savior or anything. The palace looked well-off and prosperous, so why did they need a chosen one? Well, he would have plenty of time tomorrow to ask about the prophecy. That is, if he could get any sleep. He twisted and turned and…oh right….his little condition, insomnia.
“Darn…I can’t put myself to sleep…” He muttered loud enough for Sabine to hear.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/15/2017 at 01:25:09
Sabine sighed a little bit, hearing that he was having trouble sleeping. The fact that she knew he was having trouble meant that now she was having trouble as well. Well, there was just one solution for it... Silently her tail slipped from her bed and sought him out. His blankets lifted slightly, and a moment later her tail curled around him. Then it lifted him up and carried/ gently dragged him over to the side of her bed.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/15/2017 at 10:19:31
He nearly jumped at the tail now curled around him and dragging him off gently. He gave the form of Sabine a tired, apologetic look. "I have insomnia, okay? It makes it really hard for me to sleep ever since I was five."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/15/2017 at 22:57:29
"It's quite alright," she said, turning over to look at him. She lay stretched out on her bed, gazing at him from her side. "Just gaze into my eyes and let yourself relax. Sleep Harold... Sleep..." her eyes glowed the familiar blue. They seemed even more brilliant in the dark. Her tail began to creep around him more, slowly forming a blanket around him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/21/2017 at 23:43:38
The familiar blue glow once again enveloped his vision and he didn't resist this hypnosis this time. Unlike Christinas aggressive waves of hypnosis, these new waves washed over him gently like ocean waves upon a rock. The emerging ripples did sooth his nerves and he felt ripple after ripple of bliss and warmth that soothed his tired mindset and he began to yawn and close his eyes slowly.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/22/2017 at 10:00:55
She hadn't intended to get up at first, but then she got another idea. She slowly got up on her hands and crawled over to him. She stretched out so that they were both now eye to eye. "Sleepy Harold. Such a sleepy little human..." she gently cooed to him. Her tail continued to slip around him. She leaned in for a moment and lightly placed a kiss on his lips.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/23/2017 at 22:40:09
Okay, he could take in the fact (somewhat) that he was some special human being for being able to teleport to this alternate realm. He can certainly try, and he meant TRY, to get use to being a hypnotized play-thing as long as the girl was not treating him like a dog. BUT....if he was expected to believe that in a course of two days, that a noble was not only trying to treat him of his illness, but also decided to kiss him on the lips....he would like it, but WHAT WAS GOING ON?! Why was the universe giving him such good luck after everything he been through and...and....why was it getting so hard to think? Oh right, Sabines beautiful eyes that were making those rippling waves again. He sighed into the gentle kiss and tried to make himself comfy by wiggling into the scaly cocoon that was forming around his body.
Speaking of which, the cocoon just held him so snugly and it was so warm that...that...it was then that he gently shut his eyes and softly snored away into the realm of dreams.
Re: Alternate reality

Seeing Harold slip off to sleep, Sabine soon did the same. The makeshift bedding was forgotten as he lay on the floor in her comfy coils. Sabine stretched out on the circular mattress and pillows, her tail hanging off the side for him.
The next morning, the serving girl returned with breakfast for two. It was an honor to serve the prophesied one. She slithered in to find the two of them in an only semi-scandalous position. It would start rumors if the other noble knew. But the serving girl wasn't the kind to talk behind her mistress's back.

Harold was still sleeping with a small, contented smile on his face. His illness didn't come back at all during the night thanks to Sabines hypnosis calming his mind down. Every-time a whisper of his condition tried to worm it's way into his mind, the remaining ripples that began to greatly weaken in his vision forced the vestige of his condition back to where it belongs. He sighed contently and shifted slightly to the right under the snug coils that kept him warm and safe from anything. But alas, all good dreams had to come to and end someday, and that came with him yawning heavily and his eyes groggily opening, the ripples now gone. He smacked his lips quietly as he laid his head on the makeshift pillow made out of Sabines thicker coil.
"Man...that was a real nap." He said quietly as he looked up....and saw the servant girl STARING AT HIM IN SABINES COILS! What....how was he gonna get out of this one?! "Ummm...." He started to say with a light blush on his face. "Don't speak of this to anyone, please?"

She shook her head, trying not to say anything to wake up her mistress. Instead she made a buttoning motion over her lips. She promised silence. Then she slithered over and gently started to undo Sabine's coils so she could serve him breakfast. However a moment later, Sabine began to stir, absently gripping him in her coils. She slowly got up and looked over at the food. "Breakfast." She sighed happily.

Harold sighed of relief at the silent gesture that meant that the servant would be bound to silence over his...scandalous position of sorts. It couldn't get anymore awkward than someone walking in an seeing a lov- friend just cuddling up another person in affection. Boy, he he almost said lover? No, no, it wasn't like that. They just met each other, and he doubt that a noble like herself was honestly interested in him. He felt like he just had this conversation with himself yesterday. Ah, it didn't really matter. What mattered was the sweet smell of breakfast that wafted into his nostrils. He struggled a little bit gently and, with a little effort, managed to slide his arms from the bed of coils and take the plate with his breakfast.

Sabine uncoiled from him and the two shared a bit of breakfast. After the ceremony and feast from yesterday, things settled down to business-as-usual around the palace again. Of course, being the only male in the entire dimension meant he continued to hold the status of most eligible bachelor.
He and Sabine spent part of the day together, however eventually another serving girl caught up with him. She informed them that Harold was being summoned by the empress. Something about completing his accommodations.
Sabine smiled, knowing that it was difficult to make time with a celebrity. "That's ok. We can spend more time later. Go ahead and see what needs to be done."

Just like the dinner last night, the fruit and juice were fantastic. Who knew that this society could make such nice uses from a mango and some milk. It was nice to know that the two weren't being flustered of gushing over him in spite of him sleeping in Sabines coils....even though they were comfy and very safe to be in. Not to mention that her hypnosis did a lot to ease his condition and helped him sleep for a longer period of time. Alas, the situation did not allow him to be with her much longer, as another servant told him he had to meet the queen once again for accommodations. He got up to his feet and gave Sabine a smile.
"Thanks for the help. I hope we meet again soon." He said before giving her a quick hug and moving off with the servant.

He was led back to the empress's throne room. As usual, there sat the empress. She was just as strikingly beautiful as she first time he had met her.
"Oh good. I am glad to see that my summons found you. I am lad to see that you are doing well and didn't do too much... feasting last night. I sent servants to your quarters last night, but it seems that you were busy." The empress raised her hands and clapped once. A rather lovely lamia girl slithered out into his line of sight and bowed to him. "This is Raina. She is to be your servant. If you require anything at all, please tell her." Raina had long black hair, a long grey tail and was only wearing a minimal gold-colored harem outfit. But this wasn't the only surprise the empress had for him.
"Also we want to be sure that our hospitality is adequate for our honored guest. You have lodging, food, drink, and now a servant to see to your every need. But there is still one thing missing. You will need clothes, more than simply the ceremony clothes you were given. So I have the bet taylor on her way. She may not be familiar with human clothes, but she is our finest and will make anything you need."

Okay, he certainly wasn't expecting his own servant, and his face could only betray the eyes of shock as he looked at his own servant. Yeah, she was pretty, just like all the rest, but perhaps he didn't mention to the queen that in his world, slavery is frowned upon and outlawed. But this was an ancient civilization that obviously hasn't deviated from their code and laws after hundreds of years, or thousands, depending on the time dilation of this realm. Besides, it's not like the servant had a choice in the matter, considering she's been groomed to serve people for a long time. He gave the servant the best nod and smile as he could. At least servants wouldn't view him as some potential toy or mate, even if he meant that he would miss their warm coils and spirals and why was he thinking such things.
He moved forward towards the queen and placed a hand on the servant girls shoulder. "It's a pleasure to have the help with my clothing and what have you." He said formally, before looking at the girl, then back at the queen. "But, can I speak to you alone first? There's something I really want to talk to you about in regards to one piece of info."
He turned back to the girl and smiled. "In the meantime, can you give me a glass of water? I am quite parched."

Raina bowed and slithered off to fulfill his request. The empress looked surprised at the request, but she nodded. "Please put any other appointments on hold for the time being." She clapped loudly and all the of the guards and nobles inside turned to leave, slithered out into the hall.
"What may I do for you?" The empress cast her gaze back to him. They were alone as he requested. She drew herself up and slithered down off the throne pillows. Despite his honorary rank, she always exuded practiced grace and power and in her demeanor. Not only that, but quite a lovely sight too.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/03/2017 at 09:44:05
With the nobles and guards now all gone, Harold could now speak alone with the Empress. He moved forward, but admittedly with a slightly flustered look on his face. He really couldn't help it. The empress still was a lovely sight to behold, especially with those hips and coils that were quite soft and strong. He really shouldn't think of such things in front of the empress, as he didn't want a repeat of when he first met her. He soon was at least only mere feet away from the empress, his eyes now looking into hers. He wondered if she would try to use her spirals to put him to sleep like last time, but he knew better than that. The empress obviously would've done so by now if that was the case.
"You see, your majesty..." He began to say calmly as he kept looking at her and twiddling his thumbs. "I am glad that we managed to start over. In fact..." He started to smile in admitted excitement and grace. "...I must say yesterday and today has been really exciting. I really do wish to learn more about you and your race. But, I have to ask, and please understand why."
That's when he frowned and leaned against the part of her throne. "I'm confused as to why I'm being called 'The Chosen one'. I can understand waiting for something like me to teleport to this strange place, but chosen one? Is there some part of the prophecy your not telling me? First, you don't know why your kind vanished from my world, but now this. I'm not a hero, and unless your telling me I can grow a tail and gain your...eye spirals, I highly doubt I'm some sort of legend to you people."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/05/2017 at 12:07:32
The empress was silent for a moment as she studied and considered her response. She slowly slithered over to him, her movements swaying back and forth as she approached.
"There isn't a prophecy per say." She started slithering around him, her tail pooling around his feet, though she wasn't coiling him. Almost like pacing, she circled around him as she studied him. "It was prophesied that a human would came back into our world. It has been the subject of much talk and much debate over the human that would return to us. It is a very sacred teaching for my people. However, after so much time, there have been... speculation. Some believe that one day you will reunite our people with your world. Some think of you as a holy figure come to give us guidance. And some... well... For some you are the only man they have ever seen. There is no prophecy about what you will do for us, only about your coming. You are given an honorary title, but some may choose to see you as more than that or less than that. As empress, I must ensure that this historic moment goes smoothly for the sake of my reign. ... Not that I mind at all." she said giving him a flirty smile.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/05/2017 at 22:30:38
He really had to avoid looking at her swaying hips and keep looking into her eyes as she explained the reality of his standing in this kingdom. Well, at the very least it meant that there wasn't a whole lot of pressure on him to do anything. However, he had to wonder if there was something going on in this kingdom that he really should need to know. It didn't really matter, as that meant he could spend more time exploring and examining every single part of the kingdom, more so on the outside. He kept a careful glance on the tail pooling at his feet, but it wasn't coiling around him. Actually, speaking of examinations, perhaps this was a prime opportunity to study the most interesting physical aspect the lamias here had to offer. No, he wasn't just saying that because he actually really liked how safe and comfy they were around his body. He had a professional side to this, honestly. Besides, would the empress really feel welcome with his hands all over her tail. Well, since he was an honorary member of their realm for the time being, might as well take advantage of that new title. He was part of the prophecy after all.
He really let the last bit of what some thought of him slip past his head. Yeah, all of them were attractive with their revealing clothes and their curves and....he has to stop. The last thing he wanted to think about was being a target for love from the other lamias. Now back to business on the coils. He smiled back and looked at her as he reached out to lay a hand on the thicker part of her sleek coils, trying to match that flirty smile she had on. "I'm glad I'm not a burden to you." He said as he gently rubbed the band of muscle and felt the muscle really just mold onto his hand. It felt really strong and though, making him wonder how she managed to have such a firm, yet gentle hold on his being when they first met.
He soon went to sit Indian-style on the floor and took the end of her tail into his arms and placed it on her lap, studying it closely. "I must say, you sure have some muscle to your coils. Are you born this way, or did you have to work on it as you get older."
Re: Alternate reality

The tip of her tail reached up and slapped his hand. "No one is allowed to touch the body of the empress!" She was both serious and not serious. Her tone was absolutely appalled by his forwardness. However, what she did next proved that she rather liked it. Her tail wrapped around the back of his shoulders and curled back around into his lap once more. She placed her tail in his hands and flexed it for him.
"A little of both. We lamia are naturally very muscled in our powerful tails. The empress has certain standards that her figure must adhere to." Her shocked expression changed to a sly smile as she enjoyed his attention that she normally wasn't allowed to have. Her tail slid over his lap and wrapped around his waist. It seemed that lamia couldn't help themselves when it came to coiling others.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/06/2017 at 09:44:59
Harold nearly dropped the tail when his hand was slapped harshly by the tail. He actually grew a bit fearful when she shouted with a tone that clearly meant she was appalled by his actions. Oh great, he was gonna get himself thrown into the prison for his touching of her tail wasn't he? But then....he felt the tail moving back into his hands after wrapping gently around his shoulders? Okay, this was pretty weird, but at least she wasn't attacking him or having the guards attack him. He had to admit though, her muscles did weigh down on his own a little bit, but it wasn't uncomfortable.
With the tail flexing on his hands, he went to gently rub it some more and moved his arms up in surprise as the powerful tail wrapped around his waist. Well, he managed to get some sort of close examination. "Well, I can certainly see that." He said as he rubbed the loop around the waist.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/06/2017 at 23:02:33
She gave him another sly smile at his fear. She seemed to like holding power over him, but at the same time she was enjoying the attention too much.
"Can you?" she asked teasingly. Her tail reached up under his chin. It lifted his head up slowly so that his eyes had time to wander over her before meeting her own. She held him there for a moment before letting him go.
Her tail slowly formed a seat underneath him, though one coil remained around his waist. The rest of her tail was practically shoving itself into his arms. For science... of course.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/07/2017 at 00:04:37
He had to suppress the shudder of surprise upon feeling her strong, yet soft tail lifting his chin up and meeting her eyes once again. Oh god, she was gonna be hypnotized again like last time, wasn't he? He really wanted to looked away from her eyes so he wouldn't be seduced like that again, but the spirals felt so good the last time they met. Why did he think so? Well, she didn't really harm him, and it was nice to get a good view of her well-made body as his eyes wandered up to her own. I mean, she was really attractive...and....strong...and....this was getting awkward. The mean red blush that formed over his cheeks just helped prove that he was kinda liking what he was seeing.
But he then felt something really comfy covering his bottom and moving closer to his waist. He looked down to see that she had made a comfortable seat for him, a rather generous position for the explorer and the empress. He grunted as he felt more of her tail pile up in his hands, but he still kept up his rubbing as he looked closely at the scales. Just as he thought, every scale lapped each color perfectly. "I must say, your scales do have a..." He started to say before thinking about his answer. "...lapped quality that is really unique. You do take great care, and I wonder how this tail and all came to be."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/07/2017 at 23:25:02
"Isn't it obvious?" he soon found that she was standing right in front of him. "Magic... enchantment... charms..." She whispered to him. "Or maybe just the legion of pampered care that an empress receives." she gave him a wink. She slithered even closer, invading his personal space. She wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Flatterer. You sure do know how to charm a girl. Go on. Don't stop. Tell me more about what you think of my scales." Her tail moved in his hands and gently caught him by both wrists. Soon she had his arms pinned to his side and her tail was slowly circling around him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/08/2017 at 01:11:23
His blushed greatly deepened as she now had her strong arms around his neck and had her face inches from his. He only wished that no one, not even his new servant, would come and see this scandalous position that the two were in. It didn't help that the empress features looked more attract up close, and he was called a charmer in the sense. He stammered slightly as the tail coiled around him and held him calmly. "Well...." He said shyly. "Your scales are shiny too, and it's really long...."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/09/2017 at 09:23:47
Where was his servant? She should have been back before now with a simple glass of water. She was probably waiting outside with everyone else since the empress had ordered that they be alone.
She smiled at his attempt. His flattery was slipping, but she thought it was cute. "Yes. They are very shiny." She let go of his neck for the moment. She leaned back and shook her hips a little. This had the effect of some of her scales catching the light. Though it wasn't the only effect it had. "And my tail is very long. Long enough to wrap around you." As she said this, her tail continued its gentle, yet unrelenting climb around him. Soon it was wrapping around his chest. She put her arms back around his neck and brought her face close to his. She stared into his eyes deeply, though no hypnosis yet.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/10/2017 at 00:39:45
Okay, now he would really want to have his water right about now, if only to try to get himself out of this compromising position. Well, it's not that he didn't enjoy the Empress's beauty, but he really didn't know what she was gonna do to her once she make him fall under her hypnosis. He knew it was coming, he was just didn't know when, and his arms were pinned to his sides.
"And....your coils are really comfy..." He said with a deep blush on his face. "I can't seem to get out of anyones coils today, or ever since I got here actually."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/12/2017 at 10:13:46
This made her stop for a second, a horrified expression on her face. "Anyone's coils?" she repeated as a question. "So you've been coiled up by some of the other lamia?" It wasn't that she didn't mind sharing him, but she looked embarrassed for him.
"I am so sorry. Some women cannot seem to... behave themselves." She was starting to blush as she was partially referring to herself. "I think my flirting may have gotten out of hand." It isn't as if the empress got all that much flirting to begin with. He was still coiled, though she wasn't grabbing onto his neck anymore. Also her coils weren't holding him as tightly anymore. "You'll have to forgive me."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/19/2017 at 12:35:34
"Well....yeah." He said in embarrassment, a light blush carpeting his face. "Fist Sabine and one of the judges kinda coiled me up, but the former actually helped me sleep better, being a man with insomnia and all." With the thick coils now loosened around his chest, he managed to wiggle his arms out of his sides and began to rub at the middle coil around his waist. "Don't get me wrong..." He began to say while looking at the now-flustered empress. "I appreciate the coiling and the warmth. I will admit that their comfy, with yours being the best so far. But..." He looked down, trying to fin the right words to say to the ruler of the oasis. "I just wished I was warned before I was being pulled along like a toy. I really would like to explore the entire place to its full detail, and if you want to accompany me, I would appreciate it, cause I have a lot of questions to ask."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/19/2017 at 12:57:46
The empress actually took a moment to bow gratefully to him. "I am not available to accompany you just yet, though perhaps we can set up some time later and I can show you the royal archives. As for insomnia... that is something that the lamia have cured long ago. It takes more than a few sessions, as I'm sure you are familiar with." She gave him a wink. "If you find yourself needing help, let me know. We cannot have our guest of honor unable to sleep." She uncoiled from him and slithered back over to the throne. "For now, I have made you an appointment to see our tailor and I'm sure your new servant can help show you around as well."
Out of their compromising position, she clapped loudly and the doors swung open. Guards slithered into the room again, as well as his lovely serving girl with his request glass of water.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/21/2017 at 23:28:30
He nodded in understanding as he got up and bowed slightly. "It was an honor to meet you once again, your majesty." He said respectfully as he move off towards the servant. As he went to leave with his lovely servant, he turned to the empress one last time and smiled gratefully. "If you want to talk or just hang out, I'll be around , just ask." He left his little invitation with a wink as he moved off with the servant to the tailor. Along the way, he encounter the same old hallway as before, but nevertheless, it did have pillars that had green marble and even polished granite meld into one frame of simplistic beauty. He turned to his servant and took the glass of water, taking a sip as he looked around.
"Say..." He began to say as he looked around. "Once we get this clothing thing over with, how about you take me to the outer parts of the city? I would love a tour from a nice lady like yourself."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/23/2017 at 10:35:19
"Of course, Master." she said, bowing slightly. As two of them continued on, they eventually came across a hallway in the palace. The hallway was littered... or rather... decorated with clothes lines. Each one was hung with fabrics and a few outfits. They had to weave around the hanging fabrics, but eventually reached the door. She knocked on the door for him.
A moment later, it was answered by a lamia girl who looked quite a bit more eccentric than most of the other lamia he had met. She had her hair dyed a bright pink, and had a red-ish tail. Her top was very simple, but there was a collection of different fabrics that hung from it and formed a curtain around her navel. His servant bowed "I present, my master... Harold, the Divine Visitor." She moved to one side, so Harold was visible from the door way. The tailor gasped and her tail shot out like lightning. It wrapped around his waist and dragged him inside. She quickly put him down in a very comfy chair.
"Oh it is an honor to work with you... No one has had the pleasure of making human clothes in forever. I hope the ones I made for the ceremony fit you ok. We can get to work on getting you some more things to wear." She had already grabbed his foot, popped off his shoe, and was studying his feet.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/23/2017 at 11:29:48
Harold eyes and mouth went a bit wide with awe over the different types of fabric that draped the hallway. He had to admit that some of these designs were really exotic indeed, as he would expect from a palace like this. He bowed slightly as the servant made him visible to whoever designed these pieces of cloth. "Hello, it's nice to-" He started to say before the lamia showed herself. The different sorts of fabric and the pink hair certainly did make him feel shocked at how...eccentric she was, but she was by no means less beautiful. "Ummm..." He gulped and gave her a nervous smile. "It's nice to- OH GOD!" She screamed out as another tail wrapped around his waist a quickly pulled her along. Why do the cute ones have to be the most un-predictable!? IT took only a second for his body to land on the chair and his bewildered expression aimed at the eccentric nagas face.
"H-hey! A little warning would've been nice!" He said with a slightly blush on his face as his foot was touched and studied.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/23/2017 at 22:38:06
The tailor ignored his protests, she just continued to study his foot. She broke out her tape measure, and began to measure just about every possible angle of his foot. She also gently, yet firmly studied how each of his joints moved. His foot was getting a bit of a massage as well as she figured out where his bones were. After a few moments, it seemed they could practically recreate a 3D model of his foot just from her measurements. While she worked, she said nothing directly to him.
"Ummm... Master... This is Ms. Carol. Emily Carol. She is the finest tailor in the kingdom, possibly the world," his servant introduce him in order to break up the awkward silence.
Emily moved from his foot to working on his ankle. Then when she was satisfied, tested out his knee. At least she wasn't hypnotizing him or coiling him up. Other than placing him in the seat, her tail had retreated and never once came near him again...
"Off with your pants," she said abruptly. He was still wearing the harem pants from the ceremony the other day. If she was going to perfect the art of human pants, then she was going to need to see his legs.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/23/2017 at 23:10:30
The massage didn't really help his protests over how this tailor was handling the parts of his body. But of course, in keeping with her lifestyle, she was completely ignoring his acts of protests. He could only sigh and resign to the rather relaxing massage that he was getting on his foot. He wondered what sort of clothing the naga would be making for him. Certainly something great if it was taking this long for her to study his foot. Was his foot gonna have some overblown slippers for his toes? Well, at least she wasn't the type that was coiling or hypnotizing him, but he really couldn't tell if she was saving that for later. That's exactly what happened last time.
Then she just told him to remove his pants, and he blushed and went to take his pants off. "I swear, if you do anything to my...you know..." He mumbled under his breath as he took of his pants, revealing his undergarments.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/23/2017 at 23:49:47
For the first time, Emily actually acknowledged something he said, "You're what...?" Her eyes narrowed as she glared at him. Then she slapped him across the face. "I will not be messing with your hair..." she muttered darkly, completely not understanding what he was getting out. Eccentric and feisty. Meanwhile, his serving girl had to look politely away as her face turned bright red.
"Stand up." she ordered. She got a little personal, measuring his inseam, but it was over quickly. The rest of it did not. It felt like he was standing there for an hour before she finally was satisfied. While she was at it, she made measurements of the rest of him too, but since tops were very familiar territory for lamias, she didn't have to work so hard.
"Excellent. This shall be my greatest accomplishment. I hope to rival even the best human tailors in your world. Perhaps one day they will be coming to me for advice on pants making." She provided him another set of simple clothes that were loose and fairly easy for her to make. "Come back tomorrow, and I should have a set of outfits for you."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/25/2017 at 21:45:52
He flinched at the rather painful slap delivered by the feisty naga. Okay, maybe he kinda deserved that, but at least she didn't know that he meant something else. Beyond that, he kept his mouth shut during the whole ordeal, unless he wanted another painful slap from the lamia woman. He kept himself still for as long as he could until she felt him put some clothing into his arms. "Thanks, but don't hit me again." He said in a grateful, but later firm tone. "I wouldn't like to tell the empress that you laid a hand on my face." Okay, he was trying to use his title to at least make think twice from hitting her again, but what was he suppose to do. "Even though I may have deserved it, so bye!" He quickly ran off, grabbing his servant by the hand and taking her out before the fashionista could react. Once they were out of the place, he let go of her hand and tried to smile back.
"Some woman, isn't she?" He said with a nervous chuckle. "So, that tour I was talking about...OH! Can you actually help me with the leggings for my....legs? I wanna see how they fit."
Re: Alternate reality

He was probably lucky she wasn't going to gamble her reputation and make his clothes too small.
"Of course, Master." his personal serving girl said, her face still a little red. She wasn't entirely sure what to do. Presumably, he legs worked kind of like arms, though she wasn't positive. Taking his pants, she found that there was a "sleeve" for each of his legs. She dropped down in front of him to help him in any way she could.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/26/2017 at 23:52:00
He simply went to slide in his legs into each hole, trying to help her quickly get this over with. He had to admit that the clothing her got was even more comfy than the harem pants. What kind of fabric did these people harvested for the clothing. "You know..." He said awkwardly. "If you just want to show me to my room, we can go and share some stories. I have a few that are complete zingers for you."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/27/2017 at 23:07:23
She blinked at him a little on confusion. "Of course, Master. I can show you to your room. But you must forgive my ignorance. What is a zinger?" she asked, not understanding at all what he meant. "I'm afraid I haven't any stories that would interest you, Master." That wasn't entirely true, she just didn't know him well enough to know what he would be interested in or not.
Having been around the Empress and Sabine, Harold would note some things about servants that were different than other cultures. Despite waiting on the nobility and seeing to their every need, being a servant was an occupation in this culture, though not quite a butler. Servants were fed, clothed, and housed rather well. The job requirements meant that they had to be extremely well versed in etiquette, and were promptly on time with their duties. Being a servant was a full time responsibility, however they got their own time off and sometimes holidays. Nobility weren't really allowed to abuse, mistreat, or order them to be dishonest. The servants had their own structure and union that looked after them. Of course, there were exceptions to any group of people.

"A zinger means the stories interesting." He said with a grin as he went off towards his room. He noticed just how well-fed and treated this servant was. It seemed that unlike earth, or at least to some civilizations on earth, the servants here were treated almost as if their part of the home. They were of course, but they seemed to look less like servants and more like paid workers from his world. They looked as though they were treated well and are actually trained to be polite to any guest on any occasion.
He eventually got to his room and went over to his back-pack on the bed. At least his backpack wasn't tampered with. He un-zipped it and began to rummage through it. "Well then, as far as stories go..." He said as he moved through the stuff he had. "...I have a few objects that have it's own story. AH!" He said with a smile as he took out a large emerald. "There we are! How about I tell you a story about how I got this jewel?"

She happily followed him to his room. She couldn't help but wonder what sort of zingers he had. When they got there, she sat on the edge of his bed, watching him curiously as he rummaged through his things. She gasped out loud as he pulled out the emerald. "Oh! It's beautiful." As she gazed at it, the light struck it just right and her eyes almost seemed to glow green with its light. She leaned forward to get a good look, something that her skimpy outfit wasn't meant to do. "Tell me about that one, Master."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 05/08/2017 at 01:20:49
In spite of her skimpy outfit showing a bit more that what he was use to, he kept a composed expression and a calm grin on his face. He set the emerald on his right side on the bed and he went to lay on the bed. "Well..." He began to say. "It all started about two years ago when I decided to join a hiking expedition to the rocky mountains and..." He then realized something: she probably didn't know what the Rockies were. "Well, the Rockies are a mountain range in a country called the United States. So anyway, we were hiking for the past few days and we came across this cave that was about a mile long, or so it seemed. I decided that it was appropriate that I go first, and so I did. I grappled myself down and I could see the immense pleasures that filled the area. Crystals, underground lakes, and caverns that had a host of floors. When I got to the corner of one room to the right, I found this."
He said this as he tapped on the emerald that still shined brightly in the light. "It was a real beauty, and it was pretty light for a gem the size of my hand. But that's not the real exciting part. When I took it, I accidentally fell about five feet to another room below and I had to hike my way back out, but I saw the most beautiful crystals. Many of which were purple, pink, even blue and they were sparkling with the highest clarity....and then I had to hike up walls of slime and eventually got out."
He sighed happily and took the emerald back in his hands. "You know, I've been exploring things all my life, but I never thought this would be my greatest find yet. Tell me, has your kinda ever tried to venture outside of the oasis? I can't seriously believe that your the only species on this planet."

"Were you scared? I mean when you fell?" she asked, completely taken with his story. None of it was intentional, but she stretched out on his bed, showing off her figure a bit.
"Well. We have ventured out quite a bit. If I remember my history lessons correctly, when we were part of your world, everyone assumed the world was flat. Then when the worlds were separated, it was believed that we only got a small pocket dimension. But we have things like stars, which might indicate we have an entire planet. So yes, we have expanded out quite a bit more than you see here, but not as much as we did on your world. Plus, our snake tails are good for many things. But long distance travel isn't one of them. Also many methods of transportation that humans used were unavailable to us. Partly because of the sand, partly because we have trouble fitting ourselves in."

Harold took all of what she said into account, trying his best to avoid the fact that her curves and....other things were more clear with her leaning forward. It wasn't really easily hiding the tinge of pink hiding over his cheeks. He rubbed the back of his head and curiously looked over to her with a confident smile and a shake of his hand. "What, no..." He said casually. "I mean I was, but I took all the steps to make sure that didn't happen again. Plus, I had to keep a cool head If was gonna get out of there alive."
He then moved over to the edge and eyed her coils. "Well, I have to say that for living in the environment that doesn't give you a lot of options to travel, those tails look pretty strong and well-groomed. As for transport, I'm sure I could find you some pictures." With that, he went to take out a few pictures that showed him in a helicopter and his car, which was a standard ferrari of sorts. "A lot has changed, and so as how we get ourselves around. We actually have made machines that can fly around places in a mattter of hours, days even."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 05/14/2017 at 14:28:57
She leaned in close to study the pictures with him. She was very close. From his experience, the lamia seemed to have different ideas about personal space than some humans did. She seemed to trust her new master though. She placed her arms around his shoulders. "I am no scientist, but how does that even fly?" she pointed to the helicopter. "It doesn't even have proper wings like a bird." The idea of helicopter flight was just unimaginable to the lamia. Then she looked at the ferrari. "I see... so sort of a horse-less chariot. 4 wheels. But it does not look like it would cross desert dunes very well. I assume the driver can see out of this device somehow?" The idea of tinted windows were odd to her as well. One other thing that Harold would have noticed from the feast is that lamia do not really use chairs. Sitting like a human isn't necessary for them, they prefer to coil themselves as a seat. Even the empress' throne is mean for standing or laying on comfortably rather than a human chair. Seating for a vehicle for lamia would be something different entirely.

"Well, it uses an engine and the four propeller blades to make it hover and uses a great deal of force to counter the weight." He said while pointing to the propellers on the helicopters. "The read blades allow the machine to stay afloat, and as for the car...no, a desert would destroy it and that would suck. That costed like 40,000 dollars." Not like she would know what a dollar is, but his tone would indicate that the car was expensive. "There are cars that are suited for desert travel though." He then noticed that her face was kind of...close to his own, and she had her arms around his neck. Why did she had her arms around his neck? God, he could feel her breath tickling his face and her own lips close to his own. He figured that their idea of personal space was different, but not this different! He gulped a little and tapped on her shoulder.
"Ummm..." He said with a deeper blush on his face. "You sure like to get up close and personal with me. I have to admit that your really comfortable around me, and I'm glad that your not afraid, but really this..ummmm...."

"Oh! I am so sorry, Master!" she hastily moved away to give him space. Then she remembered that she was on his bed. She quickly moved off his bed so that she was back on the floor again. It wouldn't do at all to get a poor performance complaint on her first day assisting the chosen one.
"Please forgive me." she bowed, holding herself bent as she waited for him to make a decision.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 05/21/2017 at 23:04:37
The decision came with him getting off the bed and awkwardly rubbing her head gently. "It's okay..." He said with a nervous chuckle in his voice. "I mean, if you wanted to know me, you need only to ask, and I don't mind your closeness." He started to laugh. "After being coiled a few times, I think being in your coils wouldn't affect me much negatively." He then looked at her coils and sat on the floor, reaching over and rubbing one thick section and frowned at the knots in the muscle.
"Sheesh. When's the last time that you loosened up? You seem really tense."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 05/22/2017 at 23:51:07
"It isn't my place to be so forward with my Master." she said, though it seemed like every other lamia couldn't keep their tails off of him.
She started to grow alarmed as he reached for her tail. "Wait! Master? What are you doing? Oh!" She gasped as he started to massage her tail. "I ummm... N-never. It isn't my... ohhh... It isn't my job to loosen up. Its really important to be... tense. Uhhh..." She groaned as he worked at her tail. She bit her lip nervously. It felt really nice and she wasn't used to her serv-ee paying attention to her well being.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 05/29/2017 at 15:36:22
"Yeah, I'm sure being tense helps being a great servant right?" He said sarcastically as his made his fingers press deeply into the muscles on her tail. This may have seem like he was being really forward with her, but he didn't care. It was fitting if he tried to help her relax as well, seeing as how the girls kept relaxing him in any way they could. His fingers moved upwards slowly, tracing some of her smooth scales as he got to the thicker portion of the tail
"You know, you can just say that it feels good." He said dismissively. "Really, at this point, I won't be surprised."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 05/31/2017 at 22:37:52
"Yes Master!" she gasped. "As you wish, Master. I will say that it feels... Uhhh! ... good..." Her tail was like putty in his hands as he stroked her scales. Soon her tail began to almost literally melt into his touch. Her human-like half sank further to the floor as she received her first massage in a very long time.
"But why, Master?" she groaned. "Thank you, that is most generous of you."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 06/02/2017 at 21:51:42
"Why?" He asked as he moved higher up the coils, having to wrap the thicker length around his shoulders so that the coil would rest in his arms. He raced his fingers on the sheer muscle and scales to feel the smoothness and sleekness of the enter body. "Well..." Okay, he was stuck on the reason why, other that making her melt in his grip. "You probably might be doing this to my entire body anyway, so might as well do this to you for a change." He put on a devious grin and pulled a bit more of her tail into his arms and rubbed more deeply into the muscle. Oh man, she did have the knots on her being in full.
"You know, if you wanna wrap me up, you might as well." He said simply as he slowed the rubbing. "After that happening to me twice, I'm to surprised anymore. Do you lamias honestly...or at least some of you...want me because i'm the first guy you've laid eyes on, like the empress said?" He said with a raised eyebrow. He really had to know.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 06/02/2017 at 22:12:09
"Oh no Master, I couldn't do that. It's not what I want, but what you want." Her decorum training may have been forgotten while he massaged her, but she still knew her place. He was going to have to ask for it if he wanted it. Even still, as he massaged her tail, her coils curled in pleasure. The coils positioned around his neck ended up curling around it for a moment before curling the other way. Meanwhile, he had her sprawled out everywhere. Her human half was laying on her stomach on the floor. As he worked his way along her tail, he was eventually coming up on her human half.
"Well Master..." she muttered from the floor between gasps and sighs. "It is true that you are the only male that anyone in this world has ever seen. No one is still around during the time that we were separated. Not only that though... It's natural instinct for lamia to curl up around something or someone new. Call it part of our evolution. Of course, it isn't considered polite to coil up a stranger in our civilized society, but sometimes they cannot help themselves."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 06/06/2017 at 08:57:13
Okay, maybe the tail curling around his neck tightly before relaxing kinda made him realize that he could be taking this a bit too far. However, this girl really needed to relax, and her muscles and scales felt so smooth and great on his fingers. As he approach her human hips, he stopped to give those parts and extra squeeze. You know, he just wanted to at least relax those muscles before he began to move up. not that he was trying to be a perv or anything, even those those hips had the right amount of curves and she must have been working- okay, he had to stop. He kept moving ad pressing her hips as much as he could before he stopped and removed his hands.
"Okay, I think that's enough for now." He said with a satisfied sigh. "Now, as for payment..." He got a playful grin and he went over and picked up her tail. "Can you...coil me up and help me relax too? I mean, just so that way we can at least be loose together." He suddenly stopped and face-palmed. "Oh god, that was horrible. "
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 06/07/2017 at 13:09:49
"Oh but Master...!" she groaned as her back was so tight. But she stopped herself as she remembered her place. "Thank you, Master. No need for payment. All you need to do is ask. That is what I'm here for." She found it a little hard to get up. Her tail was so relaxed, it took a moment to get it to respond. She propped herself up on her arms and slowly crawled around to face him directly. When she finally could work her tail, it began to wind its way around his legs.
"So different from scales..." she muttered to herself, something that was outside good servant decorum. Her eyes studied her work as her tail climbed higher up to his knees and then his thighs.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 06/10/2017 at 22:48:03
He really flinched a little out of reflex as his servants tail began to wrap itself around the legs and thighs. It didn't feel strange in a wrong way, but it didn't feel right in some way. It felt as though he was being trapped and held against his will with every band of pure muscle wrapping itself around his lower body. He had to bite his lip a little in nervousness as the tail soon covered his legs entirely, so that he couldn't even see anything of his limbs beyond the scales rubbing against him gently. It was feeling really nice actually.
"Speaking of which." He said shakily. "Are you experienced in treating some health problems?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 06/13/2017 at 08:49:27
She sat directly in front of him, getting quite close. She watched his legs as the last of them disappeared under her scales. Then her tail reached up and gently took first one wrist and then the other. She lifted both of his arms up over his head. She was about to do more, when he asked about health problems. She stopped what she was doing, her tail freezing in place. Her eyes went wide with concern. "I am not, Master. But I will do what I can. I can get you to a hospital if need be. What ails you? Maybe you can tell me where it hurts?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 06/19/2017 at 14:28:42
"Well, it's not really a physical injury, per say." He said while scratching the back of head in embarrassment. Why do all the nagas have to be so close to him? Actually, he really didn't mind, as he could see more of her pretty face and the lips and....actually, he wasn't gonna suppress that. She did look really cute all concerned for his health. Why was he surrounded by all the beautiful girls in this kingdom? He really should be lucky that he had the attention of a noble, an empress, and his own servant of sorts. Anyway, he was really getting off-track with his all. He sighed and leaned his head in closer so that at least his spoken words wouldn't be heard outside of his and his servants personal spaces. "It's more of a mental issue. I have trouble falling asleep, basically insomnia." He said as he rubbed his temples. "I tried to take medicine, but most didn't really help out much, and it's kind of a severe case. Like, I cannot sleep for a few hours even when it's after dark."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 07/07/2017 at 18:39:05
"You have trouble sleeping?" she asked out loud. Then one could practically see the light bulb go off from her shift in her facial expressions.
"Well I could always... help you out. We can get you to sleep. And I can see about ensuring that you sleep better, even when you aren't under a spell." Her eyes began to glow a sort of golden color. But she stopped all at once the moment that she started. "That is, if my master commands it."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 07/28/2017 at 13:16:42
"Without a trance?" He said with his eyebrows raised in an interested expression. So they could help him out with his problem without putting him in a trance? Well, he might as well at this state.
"Okay then..." He said with a confident nod. "Show me, and keep it nice. Your eyes are quite alluring." He was peaking the truth, as her eyes did have a golden glow.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 07/30/2017 at 15:10:37
She moved in closer and practically slid into his lap. Her eyes were glowing once again. "Now I need you to go to sleep, but we are going to work on some of the things that keep you from sleeping. We are going to reprogram you to sleep better on your own." She wasn't so good at this whole, hypnotic induction thing, but at least she wasn't sinister or forceful about it. It was kind of matter-of-fact and comforting. "What do you think about when you cannot sleep? Do you feel helpless to let yourself relax?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 08/15/2017 at 09:15:51
He could practically blush as he felt her slid into his lap. He felt her warmth so close to his own, and he wondered if being cuddled by a naga was part of the so-called therapy she was talking about, or at least implying. Well, at least when he peered into her glowing eyes, he could sense no ill-intent of forceful action in them, just a sense of calm and a feeling that he would be alight. He could already feel the glowing sensation penetrate his own eyes and force him back slightly in a mental recoil. The glowing eyes made sure to mop up any resistance he had, or lack of anyway, since there was no chance he was gonna miss his chance to rid himself of something that deprived him of good sleep. It didn't take long for his pupils to shrink slowly until they were gone and replaced by glowing spirals.
"I....I...I feel helpless when I do." He said slowly and with a tired yawn. "It feels as if my body wants to torment me with tiredness."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 08/27/2017 at 11:16:19
His serving girl made herself comfortable in his lap. She moved in closer with her eyes. Her blonde hair spilling around him as they were practically eye to eye.
"Let's get rid of those feelings of helplessness. Your body isn't working against you. You just need to allow yourself to relax. I want you to remember how this feels as you fall under. You're going to hold onto this feeling and remember it. No more helplessness. No more anxiety. Just... sleeeep..." Her eyes never once letting up as they worked their spell on him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/20/2017 at 12:54:37
If he was in a normal state of mind right now, he certainly would feel anxious at seeing a lovely girl on his lap and practically pressing her forehead to his. However, no feelings of anxiety entered his mind, nor did he feel any tension whatsoever. All he could feel was the increasing bliss wrapping around his tiring mind, comforting him with soothing symphonies of color. It was all telling him to stop worrying and go to sleep, be at peace from the torture of his condition and just let it all carry him off to the land of dreams. It certainly helped that the coils flexed and held him so gently, that it felt like a forming blanket. His hands, in his dream-like stupor, went to the coil around his waist and rubbed it gently, trying to see if she could wrap him up a bit more in a coil blanket.
Eventually, he yawned and his eyes gently closed, and he softly snored with him drifting off to sleep
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/24/2017 at 23:02:44
She smiled with satisfaction as he fell completely under. It was entirely possible that she had just cured him of his sleep problems, though its also possible it might take few sessions. Which she didn't mind at all. Her coils draped around him like the blanket that he seemed to be searching for. Then she settled in beside him and fell asleep as well. The next morning, she would be right there at his side, ready to serve him some more.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/16/2017 at 09:36:32
The next morning, Harold proceeded to wake up slowly, his eyes squinting at the rays of sunlight suddenly bursting into the room he was in. He let out a groan and finally managed to find the strength to open his eyes and looked around. He could see that he was back on the silk bed, and in the covers up to his chest too. Well, as much as he would like to stay in the warmth of this soft bed, he really wanted to get up and find more information about this kingdom. He went to try and pull the covers off....the keyword being "try". When he looked down, he could see three bands of coils holding him gently, with his arms pinned by shifting muscle.
Okay, he did let out a smile at this as he remembered what happened last night. That girl did her glowing eye trick and everything when dark after that, which meant he actually managed to get some full sleep for once. In fact, considering he was her servant, was she...yep, when he turned his head to the right, he could see her sleeping face just next to her. She had a happy smile on her face, and he honestly did find it really adorable and all. Well, no sense in waking her up after her help last night, and he was more-than-capable of getting ready on his own. Plus, he did found that, with a little wiggle to his movements, he actually managed to inch his arms out from the coils, implying that she may have kept them loose enough so that he could get out if he needed to.
So, after a good few minutes of inching his way out, he managed to pry his arms free and gently pushed the bottom-part of the cocoon from his waist-downward, freeing him. Once that was over with, he quietly pushed the covers off, got up, and walked over to the bathroom to clean himself up. By the time the servant was even starting to wake up, he was already out with his standard white garb on from before, but he had the sleeves rolled up.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 12/16/2017 at 10:02:19
She smiled to herself as she slept and her coils curled up around... nothing. Her coils were empty. She slowly sat up, yawned and stretched. Her figure shifting as she got her muscles working again. Then she opened her eyes and looked at him from the bed. Her long blonde hair was a mess.
"Oh. Good morning master. Sorry I didn't have breakfast waiting for you." He didn't seem at all upset, so it was just something to say. She noticed his eyes on her, but she didn't mind too much. She curiously noticed his sleeves rolled up.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/01/2018 at 11:57:51
"It's alright." He said dismissively with a hand-wave. "I'll just get something from the mess hall. OH and..." He moved over to pat her dis-leveled head with a small smile. "Thanks for the therapy sessions...thing. It really helps." He then moved back and noticed just how freaking adorable she really looked, with that dis-leveled hair and her tired expression on her clean face. Wait....what was he honestly saying right now? Maybe he should step out of the room to find a better place to get some fresh air. With that mild blush on his cheeks, he walked his way out of the room.
"You just lay there and get yourself rested and all that." He said quickly. "I'll be waiting." After that, he found himself walking down the large hallway of the entire kingdom of sorts. As he walked down the hallway, he began to realize something: he never once knew or even asked how the kingdom even got here from Earth in the first place, or how they even forgot about their place on his world. Granted, he would imagine that years of spending their lives in this new area would make their knowledge of Earth all but forgotten, but did they knew what brought them there, even at least a hint?
He did remember the large jar of sorts that he held onto that sent him here. Did they even know how it would work? Wait....could he even go back home? That last one really sent a pang of dread into his mind and it made his eyes widen in fright. If they didn't know how it would work, how could he go home? His family....they wouldn't see him ever again if that were to happen. No, he would find a way back. If this kingdom lasted this long after leaving Earth, then maybe they had records of the device. Yeah, he could do so with that.
It was then that he looked back up from his thoughts and felt a painful jab, making him grunt. "Ow, what the-" He started to say until his eyes looked at what jabbed him. It was the corner of the mess hall table. Oh, he must've walked right into the hall without him looking. Well, at least he can eat breakfast first before he went to find some records....or at least until another naga girl tried to take him away.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/07/2018 at 21:35:52
Of course some naga girl w as going to grab his attention. He really could have any woman he wanted... as long as he didn't mind scales and clingy. That seemed to be the only common factor, besides beauty. The other thing that occupied his mind was the artifact he had originally picked up. After being taken by the guard, the artifact was taken away. He would either need to locate a library or perhaps find out where the artifact was taken.
As he pondered all this, he was interrupted by one of those lamia girls. "May I take you order? Oh my!" she gasped. She hadn't realized who she was addressing. She was cutely dressed as a waitress. She hastily bowed to him. "I mean... how may I serve you?" She seemed suddenly nervous about having an honored guest.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/20/2018 at 12:27:52
"Hmmm, oh!" He said in surprise as he eyed the cute lamia waitress bowing to him. Wait, was she really cute? Let's push that aside for now. He blushed slightly at the thought and hummed a little. "Well, how about some meat and eggs? I'm really not picky right now. Oh, and do you know where some sort of library or record place would be?" He added that last part so quickly that it would seem that it flowed a little un-naturally. Still, he really had to know what he could do to get back home soon.
"Tell you what..." He said as he walked over and patted the waitress on the head. Hopefully it wouldn't be seen as something so forward. "...I'll just have it in my room. Bring it to me on the double and i'll...find a way to pay you back."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/21/2018 at 15:14:45
The waitress lamia stared back with a stunned expression. The Chosen One had patted her on the head. She didn't even have time to react to his question about the Royal Library. "Oh... ok. Right away, sir." She was a little confused about being invited back to the Chosen One's quarters.
Meanwhile, back at his apartment, his serving girl was just finishing cleaning up the place. "Oh Master, you're back." she said, greeting him in her skimpy gold harem outfit. "Did you have a good breakfast?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/08/2018 at 07:18:35
Wait, that really made him think when he got back; the woman didn't even answer his question about the library. Was...was she going to get his breakfast to his room?! That really made his eyes widen in shock and his jaw going slack, partially from that and upon seeing his cute servant wearing such an....appealing harem dress. This kinda made him get a rather shocking implication. If other nagas saw him and if the serving girl came in, then he would be....wait...why is he even surprised at this point?
He sighed as he made his way to the edge of the bed and looked at his servant. "You're looking lovely this morning, like the dress. I just think I need to go back to the garden."
Post by Perilous on 08/31/2016 at 12:09:50
Deep inside the jungle lay a dormant set of ruins from an long forgotten ancient culture. The ruins lay undiscovered by humans for centuries, though many animals had taken up residence inside. Along its' walls were scrawled messages written in pictures. Many of the pictures contained serpentine drawings, though the message was largely indecipherable. At at the heart of the ruins lay an ancient artifact that seemed to radiate with its own power. (reserved for Grim)
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 08/31/2016 at 14:22:28
Well, the ruins were largely in-acessable to humans....until recently.
There was suddenly the sound of heavy footsteps that cut through the ferns that partially covered the ruined stone archs that presented as an opening to the ruins. The opening revealed two brown boots and a figure of a ninteen year-old man by the name of Harold Ramar. He was a man with white skin that was mostly covered with a sweaty white tank top and brown shorts that covered his body. Now, he was no athlete by any means, but the developing six-pack and lean muscle on his arms and legs did mean that his exploration did give him some exercise. Okay, that wasn't the most humble thing he could've had, but it was close enough. He also sported a large back-pack that had all his camping gear on the back with his ice picks on the side, and he also sported a brown hat that covered his short brown hair that was lightly trimmed.
He scanned his blue eyes over the tall bridge that over-looked the passage to the city and smiled. Today was going to be a great day for him, for he would be the only human that ever saw the ruins of an ancient race, one that supposedly died out long ago. If he played his cards right, he and all the artifacts he could find would be remembered for centuries and he would make it in the books. For you see, he was a archaeologist from the university of Arizona and he claimed to have found the secret passage to an ancient city that once belonged to a race of people that were both human and snake...a lost race of humans casted aside from the rest of humanity. He got a part of the map from his father and he presented his finding over to the dean.
Well.....let's just say he was scoffed at, for the very idea of some race that once ruled with snake-like abilities and leaving not even a trace of their existence till now seemed to be border-lined myth, if not pure insanity. Well, just out of spite, he took a plane ticket the amazon and followed the maps directions. It took a few days, but he finally found the city, and he would be the first to arrive.
After taking his time to carefully scale the bridge, he walked along the stone-covered road that lead to the temple itself. From there, he could see the decaying stone walls that had paintings of the race now gone, all were still vibrant in spite of age. Even so, he had to be careful, for he was aware that some animals may have taken up refuge in the ruins, and he didn't want to be food anytime soon. But....he had to stop and look at a painting that showed a circle of these snake people....worshiping some sort of light? Now that made him frown a little. What was it? Maybe if he moved to the center of the place, he would know, and so he did. He took note that the center was a temple that was like an Aztec temple, but the top part was gone, most likely from the elements. There were a lot of stairs.
He took a sigh and took his first step up. Time to get to the bottom of this fantasy place.

Down he went to the bottom, quite literally. The temple grew more and more dark as he climbed the long set of steps deeper and deeper. Luckily the open roof provided enough light to see by. As the stairs continued down, every little sound was amplified and echoed around. The wind gently blowing over the top of the building sounded liked a rush of wind down below. And loose rocks or gravel, the occasional drip of water reverberated around the structure.
Along the way down was a collection of creatures. Tarantulas dotted the walls, occasional bats along the roof, snakes hidden away in crevices. The cobwebs began to grow thicker and thicker. Eventually, it grew so thick that they barred the stairway. A large python lay coiled around a rocky outcropping. Its slow hissing breathing sounding more like a sprinkler in the echoes than an animal.

He wasn't really bothered by the decreasing light as he he made his way down. Weeks of exploring the Amazon for these ruins did give him a brave streak. Besides, he had a handy flashlight tapped to his hat in case he has to use it. He did had to admit though, the amplified sounds that venerated through the temple are quit marveling. Just seeing the ruins was one thing, but hearing the marvels of it all? Just a dream for any explorer. Now, he took out a dagger sharp enough to cut through the web's to make his way down and....
That's when he saw the python and he cursed a little. Just his luck....okay, no worries. He simply just had to keep his eyes on the snake as he went down and that would be it.

And that was it. The serpent seemed to fix him with a look, but it was hard to tell with its cold reptilian eyes. It made no move to stop him as he passed.
As he descended down further, it continued to grow darker until he was straining to see the next steps in front of him. However, all at once he reached the end of the stairs. Just ahead there was a deeper darkness, that seemed to outline a door shape in front of him. But something within the inner chamber shown faintly. Whatever it was was shiny, or was it glowing faintly? It sat a little off the ground as if built into a structure or perhaps an artifact sitting on a pedestal.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/11/2016 at 11:33:01
By the time he passed a snake and got to the bottom, he let out a heavy sigh of relief. He really didn't want to know what the snake was thinking of behind it's cold eyes. But at least it ultimately didn't think of him as food, or else he would've been in all kinds of hurt.
Once he landed to the bottom, he frowned a little at the deep darkness that laid before him. Well, he did expect this sort of situation to happen. He was like what, about a hundred feet under-ground already? He flipped on the flashlight on his hat, allowing a desirable ball of light to illuminate that ground. Now with that out of the way, he started to walk towards the door that wasn't too far away. Just seeing the faint glow of light behind the door made him smile a little in excitement. Whatever it was, it could ignite a revelation about this lost civilization that once lived long ago. He didn't hesitate to gently place both hands on the door and push forward, the doors opening with a slight creak.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/11/2016 at 12:15:40
As the door slowly swung open, part of the floor behind him sunk down suddenly. Luckily it just missed him, and the area he was standing on remained firm. If it was an ancient trap he had triggered, it wasn't a very good one. More likely, the temple was old and slowly falling apart. Within the room were several stone slabs that had previously fallen away from their holdings. But in the center was a bronze urn that played across the light from his lamp.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/11/2016 at 12:52:17
Harold nearly jumped out of his skin when he felt a huge rush of wind across his back. He looked back to see part of the floor just give out from behind. He sure was lucky to not be on that part of the floor when it did happen. HE assumed it was a trap judging by the way it fell apart, but the old foundations meant that it eroded as well. Kinda lucky how time in this case was on his side after all...even if it was just falling apart. He took a few seconds to re-gather his wits and wipe the sweat from his forehead after that terrifying episode. He needed to see if....and that's when his eyes saw it, the source of the glow. A look of awe and a slackened jaw took to his face upon seeing his flashlight glow upon the urn before him.
No sooner did he see the urn that he slowly made his way towards it. Along the way, he saw the slabs and he had to wonder what the function of this inner room was. Was it a ceremonial chamber, a royal hall, or something that defied even human imagination? He honestly couldn't tell just from the rotting walls of the place, but the urn could probably give him some insight. He managed to get close enough to lay a delicate hand on the front of the urn, brushing away the dust. He could see some images like two nagas, both female, holding the urn that was billowing a beam of green light. Hmmm....interesting.
He looked at the urn again and gently place both hands on the handles. He wondered...what was inside it?
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/15/2016 at 23:11:03
As he placed both hands on the handles, the urn began to glow brighter and brighter. It was soon apparent that it wasn't just his lantern, but the object itself that was emitting its own light. The light started to become so intense that it was blinding. Everything else about the room faded away. And then, just when it started to get unbearable, the light receded again.
However, once things returned to normal, it looked different. The temple was suddenly less dusty, and devoid of cobwebs. The structures were repaired and everything looked shiny and new. The carvings on the wall had a faint red glow to them, whereas they had been plain before.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/17/2016 at 13:22:50
Harolds face contorted from a happy grin to a shocked frown as the urn started to glow. Why was it glowing when he touched it? Did he just set up a trap? He tried to get his hands off the urn, but the handles were keeping his hands on them. It was like he was stuck to some glowing magnet, and it was getting brighter and brighter. Soon it was getting so bright that he had to close his eyes to prevent them from being blinded, and it was getting too hot for some reason. He could barely yell out before a lurching sensation entered his body and he fell on his back with the urn on his chest.
The minute he got up, he noticed how....clean everything was. What....what just happened? Was he even int he same room? Without any sort of thinking....he decided to stagger his way out of the room, keeping the urn in his arms.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/18/2016 at 23:36:50
Almost the instant he stepped out of the room, he was knocked flat on his back. A sharp point was sticking directly in his view. Following the point back, it was attached to a long wooden spear. Beyond that was a woman standing over him.
"What are you doing with that? !" she shouted at him. "And how did you even get in here? And what the heck are you? !"
The woman had dark tanned skin, and short cropped black hair. She wasn't wearing much, she had a black sports top and a brown snakeskin dress... actually on further inspection, it was actually not clothing, but a serpentine tail. Like something out of a Greek legend. She had red war paint across her face and her bare belly. She also had a chain draped around her neck. The warrior woman continued to glare at him, demanding that he explain himself.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/18/2016 at 23:47:29
For a brief moment (that honestly felt like an eternity), Harold was awe-struck by the woman in his sights. The war-paint, the dress of sorts...wait....that was a tail?! THat meant....he was looking at a full-fledged snake-woman of sorts! Like some sort of naga! THat meant....this entire civilization was real, and he just stepped foot into a civilization that was not only alive and well, but also in front of him.
A shame that he was at the wrong place at the wrong time and now a guard of sorts was pointing a spear at him! If he didn't try to explain himself quickly, he'll be nothing but a trophy for this woman.
"Wha...o-oh this thing!" He stammered out as his hands accidentally dropped it. But the urn didn't break fortunately, only bounced off and rolled a little before coming to a halt five feet away from him. He looked back at the woman with his eyes wide with concern. "W-waitwaitwait! I...I mean you no harm! I am a traveler, and I got here by accident! I'm a human, just a human! Who are you exactly?!"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/21/2016 at 18:19:54
The guard woman gasped in shock. "How dare you!" Lightning fast, she struck him hard against his cheek with the butt of her spear. She quickly picked up the urn, though she wasn't supposed to touch such a sacred object. It was bad enough that the creature was touching it. But then he dropped it on the ground so carelessly.
"You are going to regret that Hu Man, or whatever you are!" she hastily returned the urn to its pedestal. She acted almost afraid of the vase, or maybe it was the repercussions of letting him touch it.
She leaned in and stared him down, her weapon once again at the ready. "Alright! Talk! Who are you? What do you want? And how did you manage to get past me!!!"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/22/2016 at 22:49:59
She heard every command and....she fell asleep before he even finished. That was hypnosis for you.
Well, if that nasty blow to his cheek meant anything, it meant that he already had placed himself in a dangerous position just by touching the urn. But it wan't his fault...sort of. He didn't even know that the urn was really some sort of transport device that could take him...well, here. Hell, it wasn't his fault that all the sudden this woman just appeared and threatened him to where he had to drop it, and he figured that the urn was made out of something stronger than clay. But that wasn't really an issue right now. He could only groan slightly at the blinding pain to his cheek as he looked at the naga frantically putting the urn back on the pedestal. He didn’t know anything else about this place right now, and now this angry snake woman was threatening him.
He held his hands up and frantically called out to the woman. “Look! I am a human being! A bipedal mammal and I’m an explorer! I just came here to find a civilization like this one! I picked up the urn and I got sent here! I didn’t even know you were right here!” He shouted.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/22/2016 at 23:11:03
She ignored most of what he was saying. She only snorted and muttered "No such thing as a bipedal mammal..." And yet here, he was in front of her.
She licked her lips a moment in thought. "Alright! Stand up." she gestured with the spear. "Your my prisoner now... We shall see what the Queen thinks of you. But I swear to the holy that if I am executed for letting you get the urn, I will kill you first."
With that pleasant thought, she began ushering him out of the hall and up the stairs. Strangely, they were an exact mirror opposite of the stairs he had wandered down earlier.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/22/2016 at 23:33:57
Okay, now he can understand that he had NO room to talk back to a woman who seemed strong enough to break him in half. Yet, the fact that he could clearly hear her repeat about him not being a mammal clearly meant that she wasn't listening to him at all. That made him frown in slight anger. Why did this had to happen to him of all times. He just founded proof of a race of people long thought gone and now this!
In spite of this, he slowly got up and stared at her for a bit at her threat. Great....now a threat of execution as well. Well, wait....this place had A QUEEN?! That means that....oh jesus....what did he get himself into?
He wordlessly obeyed his captors commands and began to walk up the stairs, taking note of the strange mirrored look to them.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/24/2016 at 10:48:44
Once they had marched up the stairs, she led him down a side route to a massive hall. When he had entered the ruins, this passage was sealed off the and the large hall was hidden away. It was grandly decorated, and along each wall were several snake girl guards. These ones were armored, though still as scanty as his captor.
At the center of the hall was a grand throne. Although, this one was not a human chair, but a round disk with a pile of cushions and was intricately decorated. In the center of the disk was a snake woman, obviously the queen. She was coiled up like a cobra, and sat staring as they approached.
His captor bowed low, not at all gently making sure he did the same. It was obvious that she was more than just a little nervous about how this would go.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/24/2016 at 11:36:15
It took a lot of willpower for Harold to not make a single sound of wander into the massive hall before. He knew that in his situation, even the slightest bit of sound from might be taken as a threat. Still, that didn't stop the young explorer from having a slacked jaw at what he saw. The place was decorated and looked all shiny and new! Where the heck was he then?! Did that urn made him go back in time? Did the urn made him hallucinate? His head was swirling with questions that he wanted to ask, but he couldn't.
He could only stare at the snake woman in the cushioned seat just before he was harshly forced to bow low. He didn't know, what he could expect....but if he didn't do something....he was dead.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/27/2016 at 23:45:58
"Come forward." the queen commanded. The warrior woman went to make a move, but was interrupted. "Not you! Him!"
The woman on the throne was very lovely. She had long flowing black hair, darker skin, and a deep red snake tail. She wore only a white silk top, though she was heavily decorated in fine jewelry. Her belly button was pierced with a ruby setting, gold chains encircled her hips. She had gemstone arm bands and cufflinks and a number of other gold chains. Her eyes were outlined in dark eyeliner that drew attention to them.
"What is your purpose here? And what are you?" she commanded him, eyeing him with great interest.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/28/2016 at 17:15:48
The minute the queen-like snake woman called him forward, Harold could feel his heart fall to his stomach. He could do little other than slowly move out of his bow and start to walk up with a sense of slight dread in each step. He didn't really know what she could say to him, nor how she would react to him explaining his sudden drop into this realm. But whatever sort of time he had left to explain himself, he had to make it quick, clean, and respectful. After moving himself up to where he would be right in front of the snake woman, he looked up and....
Well....words couldn't really express the wave of emotions he felt reverberating over his body upon seeing her body. He had to admit, for a race of woman who were part snake, she looked drop-dead gorgeous! From her hair, her silken top, and to her lean figure, she clearly made herself out like a queen of sorts. But now wasn't the time to look at a figure with such....features. He took a deep breath and spoke calmly, taking off his hat and wiping the sweat that formed along his brows.
"Well miss...." He began to say as calmly as he could. "....I am a human being, which is a bipedal mammal. I am merely an explorer, sent on my own to find the, or rather your civilization that disappeared from my lands long ago." With this explanation, he slowly took off his backpack and gently set it on the ground. He was careful not to open it or make any move that would provoke a strong reaction from the guard behind him. "You can look and see for yourself. I can assure you, I mean you and your race no harm. I only wished to satisfy my curiosity and learn about your culture long lost from my world."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/04/2016 at 00:05:38
"That's HER MAJESTY!" the guardswoman shouted in outage at him calling the Queen "Miss".
"Silence!" the Queen ordered her. She smiled at the human in front of her, though whether or not it was a good thing remained to be seen. "And what be your name? And how is it that you managed to get here, get past my guard, and steal such a priceless artifact?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/04/2016 at 05:54:03
Harold cringed a little at the shouting. IF this kept up, he would end up dead before the day was out. But he knew he still had to play it cool and composed if he wanted to at least be perceived as a mild inconvenience, if not an indirect threat.
"My names Harold Ramar." He said calmly, still keeping himself steady against the two woman. "When I inspected the urn, it binded my hands to it with some force I do not know about. As for your guard..." He said while glancing quickly at the ill-tempered snake-woman behind him. "...I had no knowledge that she was in the room, as my mind couldn't process how the urn transported me here. Plus, I only assumed the urn was still keeping my hands on it. I didn't know if I could let go of it. If I knew it was done once I was here, I would've let go, and I apologize if you thought I was stealing it. I had no intention to..."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/05/2016 at 23:06:03
"He's lying!" shouted the guardswoman, but was silence by a glare from the Queen. The snake woman on the pedestal stood up, the silks falling away from her as she did so. She announced loudly to everyone in the room, "This is a special day. Not only is it a sacred day, but a human has graced us with his presence. It is a day that will go down in history. And you..." she said nodding to the loud guardswoman, "Will be rewarded for your involvement."
"Wha-what?" she gasped in surprise.
The queen nodded, "Now leave us. I would speak with the human alone." The guards in the hall slithered out to leave. Two of them lifted up her pedestal, and lowered her to the ground before leaving. Soon it was just the two of them.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/06/2016 at 06:02:11
Harolds own heart raced at the queen announcing that this was a special day. Wait a minute....a special day? Well, he did manage to transport himself here after years of the place being inactive. But on the other hand, how was his presence that important other than him being a human. Well, regardless of the case, he did feel the least bit grateful that the guards were now gone, and he and the snake woman were now face to face. He really had to take in the queens beauty for some brief seconds right now, but he couldn't really act flustered around her, in spite of his pink cheeks.
He rubbed his head and looked around for anything really. "So..." He started to say with his voice sounding less tense than before. "....what do you wish to talk about? I mean, it's a great honor to be in the presence of such a..." He tried to think of something modest to say about her. "esteemed member of a race I tried to find for years now."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/08/2016 at 23:47:18
"You may have been searching for us, but we have been waiting for you, Harold." she said. "It was foretold that someone from the... what did you call it? Human race would grace us with their presence." She slithered over to him, her tail winding around his feet. "I am Queen Elise. I would like to personally welcome you to my kingdom."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/09/2016 at 09:56:10
Harolds eyes widened at the news, at he had to move back slightly just from the sheer shock alone. They were waiting for a human to come here due to some prophecy? This....made little sense to him, because he didn't really think of himself as anything special other than a discoverer of some sort of ancient transporter device. Plus, why him specifically when anyone who could stumbled onto the place could get here as well? "Well thank you, your majesty." He said politely with a small bow. "But I didn't expect that you were waiting for me to just show up here. I assumed that my visit was an announced surprise."
He then lit up as e realized another thing. "In fact...." He started to say. "From how old the ruins on my world are and what I saw before I got here, I assumed you had to leave my world." He looked down to see the tail around his feet, and he would be lying if he said that the sales didn't feel strangely nice against his boots. Then again, his boots kinda blocked him from feeling her tail much.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/15/2016 at 23:32:11
"Yes, your arrival was quite the surprise for us. Though we had been hoping you would come here eventually. You match the descriptions of a human that we have in our text. However, having not seen one in many generations, our artists have gotten creative and came up with different depictions. The guards would not have recognized you for what you are."
Her tail was feeling up his boots before climbing higher up his legs.
"I have studied all of the ancient texts and know everything there is to know about humans... or at least what we had recorded about them."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/16/2016 at 00:03:29
"Well...." He said before he started to grin. "I'll be sure to check any of your artists paintings for accuracy." He gave her a little laugh at his little joke. He honestly was a bit curious as to how this queen subjects imagine his race to even look like? Heck, how would they even react upon seeing him? Well, if the queens reaction and her explanation was an indication, they would regard him with fascination and praise. But he couldn't really shake off the small feeling in his head that there was some sort of hidden motive behind the queens face. He really didn't know, so he couldn't say anything that could be interpreted as an insult. But he could see behind her sparkling eyes that she held some sort of power that glared back at him, as if to keep him drawn in. "Well how old are your texts? I imagine that they are quite out-of-date if you knew what time I'm from."
He suddenly flinched as he felt a strange, if not soft set of scales brushing against his legs. He had to admit that it felt quite nice, but he really didn't know how to describe it. He looked down and reached a hesitant hand to gently rub a coil around his legs. "I must say..." He said with an unsure tone. "...Never expect to know a naga this much in one day."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/19/2016 at 10:17:32
"Our texts are thousands upon thousands of years old. They record interactions with humans, however they did not foresee our sudden departure. None of them thought to include a detailed description of a human, barely bits and pieces. But looking at you now, there can be little doubt of what you are." With that, her tail climbed around his knees.
"You may get to know a naga, even better this day... I mean... Is there anything I can get you to make you feel more welcome?" As she said this, she got in really close. Could stand taller than him, forcing him to look up at her as they talked. Her eyes began to glow mysteriously, and her tail circled around his thighs.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/20/2016 at 05:54:29
Over several millennia old? Now that's something Harold had to take into consideration right there. That could mean that her entire race could be as old as the first humans that walked the land, or even the earlier hominids! That did bring up the question of HOW her race developed a snakes lower half during the years they manage to co-exist. He would have to ask her on that at a later date. For now, the entire experience of just teleporting here gave him enough excitement for one day. Wait....how was he gonna get home? If that urn was only a one-way trip....he had to ask her on that. His face took one of worry as he realized that he could very well be stuck here, and as much as he wanted to stay a little bit longer, he didn't wish to miss out on everything he had planned for his own world.
But that worry got bunked off from his mind when he felt her tail coiling over his knees and starting to envelop his thighs. He could feel the soft scales and the strong muscle press against his skin now, and he had to suppress a shudder from how strongly relaxing it was. He never expected her to be able to do this to him, and it only served to show the queens good nature towards him. He looked up and....he kinda grew some pinkish cheeks from how...close her attractive features were. He could swear that he could smell the peaches off of her dark skin now inches from her face. Still, he couldn't let his mind go to dirty thoughts yet, at least not to a queen. He couched awkwardly and tried to keep his composure. "Well....maybe a room..." He said awkwardly. "...and a guarantee that a certain guard doesn't try to skin me alive." He had to chuckle on that one. "Other than that, I honestly don't know, other than what's going around my legs."
That's when he noticed her eyes glowing, and his face scrunched up in confusion. "Why are your eyes glowing? Is it night vision, or....?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/21/2016 at 22:54:14
"We can see about a room for you. And don't you worry about Denise. She was only afraid that she would be accused of failing her job. But under different circumstances, I'm sure she would be quite taken with you. As for your legs, you'll have to excuse my naughty tail. Sometimes it seems to have a mind of it's own." As she talked, her eyes glowed brighter, slowly taking hold with her hypnotic power. Despite her words, her tail did not show the slightest signs of slowing down, getting a firm grip around his thighs.
"Yesss..." she whispered to him. "Nightvision... It lets me look at you. Now won't you please look at me?" Staring deep enough into her eyes revealed a hidden spiral within. She lifted her arms above her head as she stretched out her lovely figure, her serpentine hips wiggling a bit. Her tail, never stopping its climb, circling around his own hips.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/23/2016 at 01:30:47
Okay, while he was grateful that he wasn't gonna get attacked by an angry guard, it surely didn't ward off his earlier suspicion of the queen being up to something. Just feeling her soft tail enveloping his thighs already heightened his slight anxiety over the intentions this naga had for him. Why was her tail still going over him if she could....wait. Her eyes were glowing brighter than before, and he looked a bit closer to see why they were. He was starting to move his head forward slightly as his eyes looked up to fix themselves upon her own. He kinda started to doubt that he was looking at some sort of night-vision. He just....he couldn't really place a finger on what he was seeing. His eyes widened as he gazed into her shining pupils like a moth to a flame. He didn't really realize that his worries were being slowly eroded due to how calm the lights felt to him.
Just like she said, he kept looking, though he did catch a quick peek at her wiggling her hips at him in a way that made her look more desirable. She didn't seem to bother with his personal boundaries, not that he minded due to...such....what a pretty spiral. His mouth slacked slightly and he stammered out a word or two, trying to comprehend what he was seeing. "What....you...." He stammered out slightly.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 10/23/2016 at 22:52:58
"You wanted to ask me something?" Her hips continued to sway just at the edge of his vision. She reached out a hand and gently cupped him under his chin, making sure that his eyes didn't leave hers. The two glowing points of light would not let up on the assault against his mind.
Her tail hadn't let up either. Soon it was around his waist, and she put a halt on the coiling for just a moment. The tip of her tail reached around and brought one of his hands to rest at his side. Then her tail collected the other hand as well. Then with both of them at his sides, her coils resumed winding around him, climbing up his arms and belly.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 10/25/2016 at 05:54:35
With his arms now binded to his sides, Harold was helpless against her physical efforts to wrap him up and he could only stand there. He couldn't deny that her coils felt strangely relaxing and strong against his own skin....in a good way. But maybe that was more because her eyes were softening up any resistance to her tails efforts to calm him down. Every time that he produced a though that told him to struggle, another pulse from the glowing eyes washed it away like a rock being eroded by the water. He could only look at her eyes....and...so pretty to him.
Still, that didn't stop him from trying to close one of his eyes as he tried to pull his head away. "You....you lied to me." He said weakly as he tried to move. "You....said...you wouldn't hurt me."

"What?" she asked in shock, surprised by his resistance. His comment actually made her feel a little guilty. She was quickly at his side, cupping his face in her hands as she sought to soothe him.
"No no! I'm not going to hurt you. Please don't be afraid. A human, such as yourself, is far too sacred. Just relax. I promise no harm will come to you."

With his face now in the gentle hands of the naga queen, Harold had mixed feelings about this encounter. Okay, he could consider that she was being sincere in wanting her to relax. But....yeah she was, and her pretty eyes told him so. The poor boy just failed to realize that the more he stared into the glowing eyes, the more his resistance weathered and was washed away. He felt....more peaceful letting his face rest in her gentle hands than before, and he failed to noticed that his one eye that was looking at her was possessing a shrinking pupil. Said pupil went away completely, only to be replaced by a slow, pink spiral that started to overtake his vision. His other eyes started to open and he sank his face a little deeper into her hands.

With the human relaxing little by little in her coils, she found that she could relax a little as well. He had scared her when he accused her of trying to hurt him. This day was sure to go down in history for the lamia people as they day a human reappeared. She didn't want to be known as the queen to foul it up.
She thought she would try to direct his hypnosis a little with soft words. "As my coils climb higher, you feel a comforting warm spread over you. You can rest easy... indeed, sleep. You have nothing to fear from us." By now, the coils were making their way around his shoulders.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 11/05/2016 at 21:19:44
Harold could feel her comfy coils finishing up in wrapping him for his personal peace of mind. Feeling the muscle move and bind itself gently over his own as a show of comfort made him sigh deeply in content. As for his mind, the continued assault on his eyes started to swiftly melt away his earlier resistance, especially when she gently held him. When he kept seeing those pretty colors combined with that alluring voice, he could tell she wasn't lying....right? She had to be telling the truth just from her gentleness....and the colors. His eyes, at this point, were now displaying a steady case of spirals that showed his eventual submission to her. How funny, a human that first came to this world was now in the literal coils of the monarch.
He would suddenly feel a wave of fatigue hit him as the queen soothingly told him to sleep. Yeah....sleep would be nice for him. It didn't take long for him to close his eyes slowly and fall asleep, snoring softly in her coils.

"Good. We can worry about the ceremony tomorrow." she said, lifting him up into the padded seat that was her throne. She took the time to study him further, making sure to put her time to use while he was in her grasp. "You're snoring." she told him lightly. "It isn't polite to snore before the queen. There is a good boy." she teasingly chided him. There wasn't any such rule for good manners, but she thought it was cute.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 11/13/2016 at 17:31:38
As the queen went to study the human in her coils, Harold went to nestle a bit deeper into her coils. He absolutely loved feeling the soft scales rub against his flesh as he slept. Not to mention that her muscles gently holding him felt so great and...he had nothing to say, other than mumbling "sorry" over her chiding his snoring. He kept sleeping, but without the snore, and he even went to rest his head against the coil around his shoulders.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 11/20/2016 at 10:33:05
She gently played with his hair for awhile before falling asleep herself. However, the next morning he would find himself in a very different position.
The first thing he would notice was three lovely ladies crowding in front of him.
"It really is a human."
"Come on, we need to get him ready."
The girls wore simple white dresses, and seemed to be some sort of servants or maids. The second thing he would notice was his arms were being held stretched out, and his legs were too. He was wrapped haphazardly in a few different snake coils, each belonging to one of the girls.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 11/20/2016 at 19:58:44
Throughout most of the night, Harold could only dream of spirals and the image of the beautiful queen herself. His dreams mere representations of what he had experience ever since he managed to teleport himself to this new world. He finally managed to find the one place that had eluded mankind for centuries, and here he was sleeping with the queen of the entire civilization. Even as he slept, his mind went off on what he could learn from this place and what he can do here...here....wait...what was that noise.
When he groggily and slowly opened his eyes, he saw three beautiful women....who were stretching his arms and legs out. Okay, nevermind that these women, as gorgeous as they were, were invading his comfort zone. They were also touching his body with their coils that were soft and gentle, but still weird. He shook his head with a groan and struggled a little.
"What the? What's happening, and what are all of you?" He said a bit groggily.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 11/25/2016 at 21:45:04
"Oh Master, we are here to give you anything that you desire." one of them flirted, drawing herself in really close to his face. She batted her eyes lashes a bit at him. The second shoved her aside.
"What she means is, we are here to see to it that you have everything you need to get ready for the ceremony." As she was shoved aside, the coils of the first withdrew from him, and the second's pulled away as well.
"We have drawn up a bath for you to clean up with." explained the third. Sure enough, a bathtub was in the center of the room with steam rising out of it. A bar of soap was placed into one of his hands. "A change of clothes is on the table." There was a pile of folded clothes that seemed to be made of white silk.
"You have half an hour to get ready. Please let us know if we can get you anything." The three girls let him go and slithered out of the room, closing the door behind them.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 11/26/2016 at 00:40:18
There were a huge myriad of questions that swirled in his mind as it pertained to...whatever just happened in front of him. But the entire event just went by so fast that even the acts of telling him about the ceremony felt like a blur to. He wasn't even gonna internally comment on that one (admittedly cute) naga woman that tried to flirt with him. He kinda didn't had the proper response to such a request. But now here he was, in a rather-nice-looking bathroom of sorts with a bar of soap and robes for him to wear. The only thing he could wonder was the ceremony.
"What ceremony though?" He asked himself quietly. "What does it entail? I guess I have no choice but to find out. No sense in being stressed about it." With that, he went to un-dress and take his bath.
It took at least twenty-five minutes, but he eventually was done and had dressed himself in the silk pieces of clothing. His legs and waist were covered in the soft fabric, but his chest was exposed partially in the middle and their was a silk veil around his neck. He looked like an arabic prince, if anything. It was comfy though.

Post by Perilous on 11/27/2016 at 22:41:07
Having waited the 25 minutes outside the door, the lamia girls were growing impatient. They practically jumped at him the moment he opened the door.
"So handsome."
"Cleans up well."
"But we cannot be late."
Two of them grabbed an arm and were practically dragging him out of the private rooms and down the hallways. The third was closely inspecting him as they went. She made minor adjustments to his outfit, fixing his hair, removing a speck of dust from his sleeve, and throwing a sash around his waist. Anything she could think of to make him as presentable as possible. They led him past the audience hall, and took him to a small room where a familiar sight waited him. It was the lovely queen, and she had similar maids dashing about for her.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 11/28/2016 at 22:00:00
...And here he went again, being carried away by these lovely naga maids without giving him anytime to react accordingly. He kinda was slightly use to them getting close to his face after what happened nearly an half-hour ago, but they still treated him as an item. He could barely let out of gasp and a "hey!" as they quickly dragged him away. As one of them adjusted his body and clothing for improvements, he started to speak with a little annoyance as he was dragged off. "Look ladies..." He said before feeling the sash around him. "I appreciate that your trying to help, but honestly I can fix....myself...up." His words of protest finally died out upon seeing the queen, in all her tall and beautiful glory again.
"Hi..." He said in shock as he gazed at her body, mainly her hips. "Didn't expect this day to go so fast."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 11/30/2016 at 10:57:49
The Queen had just finished putting on an elaborate headdress. The maid girls giggled and shoved him into the room. The Queen looked him over, putting her hands on her hips. "I think that will do," she said looking him over.
"I don't think you will have to say anything... unless you really want to. Stay behind me until I present you." She said, as if this explained everything. She grabbed his hand and slithered over to one of the doors. Throwing them open, bright sunshine flooded in. Just outside the door was a grand balcony. And just beyond that was a huge crowd, all gathered to watch.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/01/2016 at 02:38:07
Once he was pushed inside the room, he could only look at the fully-dressed queen once again. It still was hard to summarize her beauty, especially with her dress. But that wasn't important right now, and just stay behind her? Was this the ceremony she was talking about? Well, he was being pulled along to a grand balcony....and a ton of her kind. Oh dear....
He didn't hesitate to hide behind the Queen, waiting for her to present him. He was secretly excited about all of this, but what would her people think of him?
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 12/05/2016 at 22:58:09
The ceremony opened with a couple of lamia girls performing some sort of ritual dance. Once the dance was concluded, the queen slithered up to give her speech. She started talking about how blessed they were. Their prophecies predicted the return of a human, and how that day was upon them. Some had spent entire lifetimes waiting for the prophesy to come true. Then, just as some might start to wonder how long she was going to talk for, she presented him in front of the large gathered crowd. There was a great roar of approval from the crowd and thunderous applause.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/08/2016 at 20:36:30
While the ritual dance was commencing, Harold had to let a sliver of fear come to his mind. He didn't really know how receptive the queens people would be of her presence. His experience with one of the guards made him wonder if not all of the nagas saw him as a figure of the prophecy, but more of a thief. He surely hoped that not all of them thought he was that, or at least a few. He really didn't want to find out about the few nagas that despised his existence. He could then feel the queens tail gently pushing him forward and face the crowd front-and-center. When the whole crowd shouted and roared in approval and celebration, that certainly did well to lift his nervous spirits and make him smile. They actually accepted him, and were waiting for long.
This was really a great day for the young man, even if it came in the most bizarre circumstances. He waited for the crowd to simmer down slightly before clearing his throat and starting to speak, making sure he was just loud enough to be heard.
"On behalf of my race." He said with a tone that expressed calm and some jittery excitement at the same time. "I am honored at being the first human to confirm the evidence of a race my kind only though of as myths and legends. I look forward to getting to know the people and the culture here, and I hope me walking on two legs isn't a weird thing, heh. That's...honestly all I got. Thank you."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 12/17/2016 at 22:36:14
His words were greeted with silence from the crowd. It wasn't exactly an amazing speech. Later on, their historians would arrange his words around a little to sound a bit nobler. At any rate, the queen started to applaud loudly behind him, which snapped the crowd out of their shock and they applauded as well.
There were several other speeches that followed, put on by other lamia women of high rank. Most of whom hadn't even gotten a chance to meet him yet. When the ceremony and the speeches had finished, the crowd below turned into a massive party. Meanwhile, the nobility enjoyed a large feast. The queen sat down to her own designated place. Harold was allowed to do as he pleased. Most of the noble women were clamoring for the chance to meet and talk with him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/19/2016 at 23:55:39
Harold was mainly walking around the table just to see what the festive night had to offer. He really admired the vast works of wall art that dotted the palace walls. From colorful portrayals of naga women juggling fire, to the depictions of a large battle in the sea, there seemed to be no shortage of exotic wonders that even the walls could show. But even as he looked around, a small part of him did feel slightly un-comfortable at all the attention he was getting. This was to be expected from the only human in this realm, that was for sure. But could he really benefit from a nice room to sleep for the night and not be assaulted by one naga woman every minute with a question? Possibly....they were all gorgeous and all....he really needed to not let perverted thoughts get into his head. When he finally could be alone in the hall for one second, he sighed.
"You know..." He said as he re-did his silk sash. "I wonder if my room has any sound proof devices."
He then decided to go get some food, as even with the amount of people around, he did feel a bit hungry. So he went to get himself a plate and eyed the smoking pile of ribs in particular. He wonder how they tasted.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 12/21/2016 at 10:21:13
Seeming to appear out of nowhere, a serving girl bowed to him. "The walls and doors of the palace are made of thick stone. You should find your room quite silent. If anything is not to your liking, we will get it fixed immediately." The place was just crawling with people for the festivities, it seems he couldn't find anywhere truly alone even if it seemed like it.
Luckily the noble women at the feast were better behaved than a flock of fan girls. They gave him space to move around, and none of them tried to grab him. With some effort he could make his way to the ribs.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/25/2016 at 14:41:32
Harold smiled at the serving girl and respectfully bowed. "I'm fine right now, thank you." But when he turned, his smile faded slightly. He highly doubted that having a room that would be sound-roof would prevent a bunch of fans from seeing him. He wouldn't mind the attention, but the whole city just going to see him would be too much. On the other hand, it would be extremely rude of him to just abandon the party when it was all for him. Besides, the nobles were at least letting him have some breathing room.
After some effort, he got some ribs, corn, and even some peaches. It all smelled delicious and he couldn't wait to eat it all. Looking back at the table, he went to sit down right next to the queen, a rather surprising action for him. But hey, he was trying to be polite, and he trusted the queen when it came to not acting like a fan.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 12/29/2016 at 22:19:56
"Enjoying the festivities?" the queen asked lightly. The trouble with ribs, corn and peaches were that none of them were very tidy things to eat. The nobles carefully picked at the food, attempting to eat it all as daintily as possible. Apparently this was quite common for them. None were more cleanly than the queen, herself. She somehow managed to dribble not a drop of sauce or juice on herself, but eating was slow going. Meanwhile the nobles decided not to pester him with the queen next to him. Several lined up at the other side of the table to ogle him while he ate.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/31/2016 at 15:25:51
He looked up and gave her a polite smile. He tried to ignore the stares of some of the noble girls as he picked up a rib. "Oh, it's great and all..." he said humbly. "...but I gotta say, I'm surprised your not the least bit...bothered by the noble girls looking at me like they want to steal me soon." He then leaned in to whisper something to her briefly. "I personally think that the one the blonde braided hair is gonna snatch me up the minute I leave." He did say this with a joking smile, but considering the ogling looks, it was hard to tell if that was even a joke or something real serious. Well, in any case, it was time to eat.
He picked up a rib and began to bite into it. After taking the first bite, his lips were covered in some sort of sauce that was really sweet. This...these had to be the tastiest ribs he ever ate in his life! He quickly chowed down on the rib, and when he was done, his lips were covered in the sauce. He looked down and smiled nervously, looking for something to wipe off his mouth. So much for trying to eat like them.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/02/2017 at 00:25:19
If he had been anyone else, he probably wouldn't get to address such things to the queen. "Why should I worry? You are more than capable of picking any girl that you like. Lady Christine is a respectable member of the court." Though as she said this, she seemed to find something very interesting about her drinking glass. She seemed to address it rather than talking directly to him. Clearly his question made her a little uncomfortable.
No one brought up his table etiquette, though it did seem to draw some stares from some of the lamia. The blonde one in particular giggled when she managed to meet his gaze. He was only given enough time to eat his meal before he was being swamped by women again.
"Harold! Do you have any plans for after dinner?"
"No way. He already agreed to join me for an evening stroll. Didn't you, Harold?"
"You simply must come to my party next week. Only the most important people will be there."
Not to mention all the questions about human fashion, music, and dance.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/05/2017 at 14:35:50
He lurched back slightly at the group of woman that swarmed him again. He did try his best to answer each question about human culture, but he could barely get a sentence out before another question would be thrown at him. Some even looked like they where waiting to snatch him up the minute they got close enough. He could feel some girls tail trying to coil around his ankles and pull slightly, and he had to pull back. How was he gonna handle this. Well, there was one thing...
"Ladies? Ladies!" He said a bit loudly to get their attention. He also took the bout of expected silence to quickly wipe his face with a napkin to get rid of the sauce from his face. "I...I would prefer an evening stroll, just so I get to know the place." Yeah, he was gonna have to deal with an interested naga girl, but it was better than dealing with an entire crowd. Plus, it he was planning to explore the place outside of the palace for a little bit.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/11/2017 at 22:36:13
The lamia who had suggested the walk was quickly at his side. She took his arm and was starting to drag him away. A split second later, all of the other lamias had noticed his sudden interest. He was quickly swamped with all sorts of requests.
"I know the castle better than anyone... besides the Queen."
"Really Harold! Let me show you the gardens. They are quite romantic!"
"He likes long walks by the moat! Everyone will want to know!"
Only the queen was too dignified to say anything. Everyone else was clamoring for the chance to meet him. The girl who grabbed him managed to shove them off. "Sorry ladies. He's mine." She shoved him through a door and quickly latched it behind her so no one else could follow. "Now then. It's just you and me. Anywhere that you want to go?" She kept a hold of his arm, but wasn't dragging him along anymore.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/12/2017 at 19:09:51
Holy jeez, just how strong were these noble woman? He could understand that they would be stronger than humans given their toned muscles, but did the girl really had to nearly pull his arm out of his socket? He barely let out a small grunt of pain before the girls once again swamped him with requests about where to walk. He was trying to say something, but once again, the girls questions slammed into her like bullets and he couldn't keep up with his answers.
Thankfully, the girl who suggested the walk managed to pull him out of the frenzy and they were soon in an empty hall, just the two of them. Now, what would be the first place to go for a stroll with this...woman whose name he didn't know.
"Well...." He said with a finger on his chin in thought. "How about you show me the gardens? I certainly would love to know how your race treats nature." He then grinned politely and used a free hand to gently grasp her own around his arm. "But since you know my name, can you tell me yours?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/14/2017 at 22:05:42
"Whatever you want." she said, giggling a bit. She could hardly believe her luck that her confidence had managed to net him in her arms now.
"My name is Sabine." She was obviously one of the upper class, though her outfit was a bit plainer than most. It was light blue, which matched her short hair. Her tail was a slightly darker shade of blue.
"And here we are." she said, as they found themselves in a massive garden. There were plants and greenery everywhere, both seated in the ground and hanging from the walls.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/15/2017 at 21:39:14
Harold smiled politely at the name. How quaint and elegant, at least to him. He shook her hand and gave her a silly bow. He figured that the noble wouldn't mind. She didn't look like the type that fretted over trivial matter like some rich people do. "A pleasure to meet you." He said with a warm smile before taking a look at her features a bit more.
He had to admit, she looked pretty unique and...cute. He found her pretty cute, okay? Was he not allowed to indulge himself in taking in her features, especially since the majority of the lamias were interested in him? Okay, other than that, he found her blue tail to also be quite nice as well. It really complemented the subtle nature of her. Okay, he better stop now.
When they got to the garden, his jaw slackened in pure amazement over how plentiful the flowers were. There were flowers of all kinds, from simple blue-bells to vines with blossoms that reached the ceiling. Some of them weren't even from Earth, like strange blue roses that could float in the wind or some that even glowed. He went over to a pot of sunflowers and gently picked on up.
"This is incredible." He said in awe. "How long did this all take?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/15/2017 at 22:01:11
By now, Harold would have noticed a few things that all the lamia wore in common. Obviously, none of them wore pants or dresses, though a few had skirts that decorated their transition from scales to skin. Most wore tops that left their hips and bellies exposed for unhindered movement. From there, the tops ranged from plain to highly decorative, from skimpy to more modest. The nobles wore more decorative jewelry and sometimes articles of clothes to decorate their tails. Sabine's top was a little more modest, yet playful. It allowed her belly button to peak out at times, and showed off her hips well. She was upper class, but not highly decorated.
Much like her outfit, Sabine seemed kind of playful. She wasn't shy but wasn't overly confident either. His acceptance of her statement of spending time with her had caught her off guard.
"Oh I don't remember the exact history." she said, not wanting to bore him with the details. She had no idea he was a history fanatic. "It's been around at least several generations. Obviously, this amount of plants needs constant care. It is one of the prettier parts of the palace grounds."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/16/2017 at 00:47:03
"Yes, I could see that." He said with a wide smile over the ancient garden. He couldn't believe that a magnificent garden like this was over several generations old. To be maintained for decades must've been quite a stupendous undertaking, and with such floral beauty to grace the walls too. "I guess your civilization obviously values the beauty of nature. Where I come from, you have so many urban centers and industry." He said this with a bit of a frown. "Not to say we don't have forests or flowers in our world, but this..." He sighed happily and looked at the sun-flower in his hands.
He then walked over and gave Sabine the flower. It was then he began to realize how exotic her dress was. He could clearly see the nice hips and muscles from below the top. She did look modest, and that made her look a bit cute.
He coughed a little as he looked back at her face. "So, I guess to your room then." He said with a slight blush. It was pathetic, but what could he say that wasn't awkward for him?
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/16/2017 at 14:31:59
She gasped a little in shock. "Oh my! You humans are quite... forward." Had he been anyone else, he might have gotten slapped. She looked around at the gardens a bit. "How about we stay here for the time being. With everyone else at the feast, I don't think we will run into anyone else. So what is it like, Harold? In the human world? Is it different from here?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/16/2017 at 15:08:58
His eyes widened in sheer shock and horror as he realized what he'd done. It was a miracle that he didn't get slapped for saying something like that. Okay, it was taken out of context, but it's not like she knew. "Woah! That's NOT what I meant!" He said quickly while raising his hands in front of him defensively. "I meant just to see what a nobles room looked like. We humans are more modest about...things like that." He said this while looking down in embarrassment. "Look, I'm sorry okay? Of course we can talk about my world for a bit, and then I would like to see what your room looks like." He said this as calmly as possible while looking at her in the eyes again. He didn't want to foul this up.
"Well, it is in a lot of ways." He started to say while sitting down on the ground. "For one thing, we are much more advanced in technology. We have cell-phones, computers, and other digital wonders for us to talk to people everywhere and for re-creation. We also have industry that allow us to gather resources for everyone who needs it, and there are dozens of nations with their own governments. I assume you run as some sort of tribal system like the Aztecs?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/16/2017 at 15:28:32
She looked at him curiously, not understanding half the things he was talking about. "Cell phone? What's an Aztec?" she asked. "I suppose we might be tribal. Maybe." She didn't seem to know that there could be any other way. "It sounds complicated." she admitted at last.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/16/2017 at 15:52:50
He let out a heavy sigh at her confused look and rubbed his temples lightly. Of course she wouldn't know all of these things, and he didn't have his cell phone with him. Maybe it was in whatever room they would give him. "Okay then, maybe you can tell me about your society a little bit." He said while patting the empty ground in a gesture for the naga to sit down with him. "Perhaps it's not that complicated." He said with a chuckle. "What do you nobles do with your spare time?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/17/2017 at 00:01:59
Sabine loosely coiled around herself and sat down beside him. "Well, I mean there is the usual talk about the latest fashion or gossip. Most of the upper class ladies spend time doing some sort of recreational activity. They all try to get their physical exercise, despite not doing any physical labor. Mostly that sort of thing is for the lower class. And we all follow the guidance of the queen, of course. Outside the palace are vast sprawling deserts."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/17/2017 at 15:56:24
"Sprawling deserts?" He said with an amused look. "With all of these plants, I have to think were in some sort of oasis of sorts." It would make sense though, as there would be no way for the plants in the garden to survive without some water source. Plus, they would have to have some sort of advanced irrigation system to sustain such a large population of laminas here. Speaking of laminas, he actually needed to ask a question that appeared when he was falling asleep in the queens coils.
"By the way, when I had an audience with the queen, she had something in her eyes. It was...relaxing and strange, like I wasn't in control of my mindset. Is that power common in among your people?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/23/2017 at 22:12:43
"Yes. That is it exactly. The palace was built around an oasis. And it's partly what makes the gardens so amazing."
At the mention of something in their eyes, Sabine looked a little mischievous. "I'm sure I don't know what you mean. What do you remember about it?" she asked innocently, but her attempts at innocence were ruined by a flirty smile. Privately she wondered about what the queen tried to pull on him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/24/2017 at 09:24:04
Oh man, just seeing that flirtatious smile made Harold realize that Sabine knew exactly what he was talking about. Did she have the same ability, and if so, would she use it on him by surprise? Now wasn't really the time to act nervous in front of the girl, so he might as well tell her. "Well..." He started to say while turning a bit away and rubbing the back "Her eyes were glowing and I felt compelled to keep looking. The more I stared, the more I felt...at peace really. I even saw spirals in her eyes and the last thing I felt before falling asleep was her coils keeping me warm and safe."
He actually blushed a little at this. He had to admit, that whole experience did feel good.

"Really? The queen did all that?" she asked. She was a bit surprised to find this out, but she supposed it only made sense. He was the human from the prophecy, after all. "Are you sure she doesn't just have nice eyes? Maybe you could look at my eyes and tell me if mine compare or not." With that, he could feel something wrap around and turn his head in her direction. She had lovely blue eyes, and they seemed to glow with an internal light... and it wasn't just her glowing personality either.

Nice eyes? Well, how did the conversation go from hypnosis from her just having nice eyes. Her eyes did look really pretty, about as much as a queens looks is suppose to be precieved. He even remembered the thick lines of eyeliner the queen wore that made the majestic hue stand out more. He was about to reply before he felt something smooth and gentle wrap around his head and turn it forward. He very much was about to protest slightly, but then he saw the same glow as before. There, in her blue eyes, was the same alluring glow that he saw in the queens eyes.
It certainly did catch him off guard to some degree, but it did confirm his suspicions about the hidden powers these women had. "I...I..knew it." He stammered out as the bright color of blue began to probe at his mind. "Your eyes...do have... a pretty glow to them....like a lake." He said this while a light blush dusted his cheeks. This glowing sensation was slowly breaking down his mental barriers like before. He tried to move his head away, but the colors....kinda made him slow on the movements.
"Woah...I must admit that your eyes are literally radiant."

"Oh my! You certainly know how to flatter a girl." she flirted with him a bit, pretending as if she didn't know what he was talking about. She leaned in, gazed deep into his eyes, and rested her chin in her hand. His expression of a lake was almost exactly spot-on. Her gaze seemed to grow deeper and deeper. Her hypnosis didn't change color, but ripples began to radiate outward from her pupils. It looked just like ripples on a pond. "Go on Harold. Tell me more. Flattery will get you everywhere," she teased, knowing it was going to be harder and harder for him to concentrate.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/30/2017 at 00:33:03
His chest felt a deep warmth emit inside when she carried that cute smile from his (seeming) flattery. He was saying the truth though, and the ripples only served to add to the effect. Even as her head moved closer to his, he did next to nothing to avoid her eye contact as her hypnosis drilled deeper into his head. Any other normal person who did mind some sense of danger (not that she showed any) would try to shake out of this and tell her to stop. But Harold, now already ensnared in the preemptive mental strike on his mind, could only stare deeper into her shiny blues. Indeed, the blue eyes were quite deep in the blue hue, and the way they rippled felt like gentle waves that weathered at rock to a smooth surface, sort of like his brain.
Any thoughts he had against what she as doing were slowly weathered and washed out like a rock in the sea. The more her color rippled, the more that feeling of calm and pleasure washed over him. Eventually, it was getting harder for him to form a more coherent thought for her, much less against her. With all the nice ripples going into him, he failed to realize what was happening to his own eyes. His pupils were shirking slowly, and a lone band of blue that matched her eyes slowly poured out of his own eyes. "Well....I...like the ripples...how...I can't think straight." He said with a slight sense of drowsiness in his voice.

Post by Perilous on 02/05/2017 at 10:05:15
"Oh? Is it becoming hard to think? Well perhaps, keep looking at the ripples and let me know if anything occurs to you?" She teased him further, knowing that he was soon going to have trouble concentrating on what she was saying. She placed both hands on either side of his face. She tiled his head up so that he would keep staring into her eyes as she moved in closer.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 02/05/2017 at 11:22:23
He really blanked out from every word she just said just then except for the ripples. Her voice sounded more and more far away the more the hypnotic ripples resonated into his eyes. But even so, he couldn't really look away. The colors just looked so pretty and deep, as if he was staring at the bottom of the sea and seeing nothing but clear blue. He didn't even notice that his eyes had lost their pupils entirely, replaced by a steady wave of blue rings that copied her own. He couldn't....he really...couldn't.....
"I...it's great mistress..." He slurred quietly, resting his face in her gentle hands as he looked back at her ripples more. He felt the warmth all over his body now, like he was at peace for a long time, or at least when she was done with him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 02/08/2017 at 21:05:19
She laughed a little at his subservience when he referred to her as 'mistress'. She was content to allow him to soak up as many spirals as he could manage. However, the two of them were interrupted. Some ways away, she could hear the voices of a couple of lamia talking. This was a very bad time for the two of them to be interrupted. In his vulnerable state, he could be easy prey for some of the more aggressive ladies. She put her finger to his lips to silence anything further he was going to say. Then she quietly got up, and beckoned him to follow as she led him through the gardens, avoiding anyone else.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 02/09/2017 at 09:11:47
Her little laugh sounded just like heaven to him at this point. He wanted to do anything to please his new-found mistress if it meant soaking in as many spirals as he could. He wanted to help her out...the spirals were just all he could see now. The blue ripples were now part of his vision, and he could only see a long tunnel of beautiful spirals with Sabine's pretty face at the end of it. That was when he heard some other lamias talking and coming their way. Would they try to take him away from his mistress? Did they have a stronger brand of hypnosis that would ensnared his mind from Sabines ripples? Probably, but he wanted to stay with her...with his mistress. He blushed slightly as he felt her finger on his lips, a sign to keep quiet as he stood up quietly like a emotionless puppy. He went to follow her obediently deeper into the gardens.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 02/11/2017 at 23:33:04
She led him around the gardens before quietly slipping back into the castle. She was careful to led him around, careful to avoid the celebration and the mob that would bring. After a while, the hypnotic spell she had him on was slowly starting to slip away. Not knowing where else to go, she brought him to the residential section. She eventually came upon the room she was looking for. She opened the doors for both of them to slip inside, and hastily shut them behind her. It seemed he was going to end up in her private quarters after all.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 02/15/2017 at 17:20:58
He didn't really care where he was going right now. There was no point to think about it anyway, for the spirals that encompassed his vision to where he could literally only see her beautiful face at the end of a multi-color tunnel. With every step of the way, Harold let out a small grin on his face grow slightly. It just felt like walking into heaven, whatever heaven did look like in this place. However, even he had to admit that some of the spirals were beginning to fade slightly, and like a television losing it's signal, the colors started to break into static with their effects fading. His thoughts began to create some sort of doubt about what was going on and the fading of the spirals made him see the room he was in...wait.
Wait a minute....why was he in a room and not at the garden? The shutting of the door fizzled out the remaining spirals and he groaned and stumbled back at the backlash. He felt like he just came out of a haunted sleep.
"What....what happened?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 02/21/2017 at 22:58:28
"Oh ummm..." she said, not sure how to explain it to him. It felt a little like getting caught in the act. "Well... there were a couple other girls in the garden as well, so I decided to bring you here instead." She glanced around her living space, not having expected to bring company over. By sheer stroke of luck, he managed to see what their living quarters looked like.
She was interrupted having to explain further, when the door opened. On of the serving girls slithered inside. "Miss Sabine, I have brought... Oh my! I'm sorry Miss Sabine, I did not know you had company. I'll just..."
"No! It's quite alright. I just brought him in from the gardens." Sabine hastily reassured her servant. The girl started at him wide eyed in disbelief. "Just please don't tell anyone that he is here."
"Oh... of course," she said bowing, her expression even more shocked now.
"No! Not like THAT..." Sabine face palmed, having trouble explaining why she brought the human back to her room. Meanwhile, Harold was quickly becoming outnumbered.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 02/22/2017 at 18:19:28
With his mind no longer under the nobles spell, Harold took the time to recover from his drowsiness by checking out her room. Her room in particular looked pretty fancy, which wasn't surprising with her status as a noble. Her bed was large enough to handle two people, with a fluffy mattress and tucked in sheets with silk covered in blue coloring and three pillows that were created with silk as well. Made him really wonder where they were getting the silk from in this oasis.
Both sides of the bed had a few rugs that ranged from purple to red to even mixed and made with a fine linen that looked really groomed. Beyond that, the rooms were really fine, made of white marble, and finely polished with a bright sheen. A symbol of a noble indeed, and with a few items to match. He made a little "huh" notion at this and went to turn to Sabine. "Nice room you got-" That's when his eyes focused on the servant girl that just came in, and probably just exposed where he was.
"What....okay, wait a minute, can't I at least get a break and talk with the noble some more?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 02/27/2017 at 22:45:36
The serving girl gasped in shock as he spoke to her. "Of course, master." She bowed deeply and quickly left the room. That left just Sabine and Harold alone together. Sabine hadn't even had time to properly explain why he was here with her. "I'm glad you like it." she said, looking over the room. She didn't think it was all that impressive, but was grateful he seemed to take an interest in it. "Is there anything I can get you?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/02/2017 at 21:41:35
"No, it's quite fine. I just had some of the finest ribs you could get me." He said with a grin as he made his way over to her bed. He placed a hand on the mattress to feel the fabric. Just as he thought, the finest silken fabric any noble can ask for. He didn't expect any less from the place like this. He sat down on the edge of the bed and gave her a curious look. He had to marvel at the size of her tail and the like....oh wait, he had a question.
"Say.." He began to say. "Are there any males of your kind in this kingdom? I imagine you've had some way to make families."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/02/2017 at 22:22:22
She shook her head, "No there aren't any male lamia. Once upon a time, they said we used to steal human males away... Or more likely they came willingly. But there there hasn't been a male in thousands of years." She playfully leered at him, but she couldn't keep it up. She ended up laughing to herself.
"Well it really is very simple. When two lamia women really, really love each other... They craft a magic spell. And that is how babies are born. Why? How do humans do it?" She spoke as if magic spells were perfectly natural. However, he was saved from having to explain further by yet another knock at the door.
"I wonder who that could be at this hour?" She got up and slithered over to the door. While she stepped away, there came a light tapping sound at the sole window in her living quarters.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/03/2017 at 23:15:10
He moved way back at the leering towards him. Okay, why was it getting so weird right now? "Now wait a min-" He was cut off by the lamia laughing her butt off at the joke and he let out a sigh and a glare at this. "Don't do that." He said crossly, though his brows did lifted up at the most bizarre way their society made babies he had ever heard. They had magic and that's how they had kids? Okay...no honestly he could take that. First, he just proved a civilization that was runned by beautiful nagas existed and now magic existed here. Yeah, he could handle it.
He suddenly heard the slight knocking on the window and he went over to it cautiously.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/04/2017 at 23:54:45
The maid had brought some items back with her. "Oh I thought you might need these if the human is going to be spending the night." She laid out some sheets and bedding.
"Really that wasn't necessary, he probably won't be spending the night. He has his own room... Wait! Where did he go?"
A few moments before the two girls discovered his sudden disappearance...
As Harold was lured to away, a serpentine tail opened window the and it slide inside. It quickly wrapped around his mouth to keep him quiet. Quickly, a few more coils wrapped around him and pulled him out through the open window. He ended up upside down as he was lifted high above the palace grounds, and up one set of windows above Sabine's.
He soon found himself face-to-face with a familiar face. It was that blonde from dinner. What was her name? Christine? The one the queen had said was a respected member of the court? She was studying him over once again, but this time he was in her clutches.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/05/2017 at 10:48:17
He didn't have any time to react to the large snake tail that wrapped around his mouth and pulled him out of the room through the window. His arms failed wildly for a brief moment until he felt a few more strong coils bind his arms, chest, and legs tightly, making him create a muffled gasp at this. He wildly was flipped upside-down as he was hoisted up above Sabines room. He wiggled feebly against the coils, but there wasn't any point. The coils muscles were too strong and they just tightened a bit more at his slightest movements, making him whimper slightly in apprehension.
Suddenly, his eyes were face-to-face with a familiar face from the party. Wait, he knew her! She was one of the important nagas of the court! Regardless of the fact, he certainly didn't appreciate being caught and dragged up here like a piece of meat. He mumbled crossly and wiggled against the coils. He wanted to get his bearings, but his situation made his efforts look quite comical.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/05/2017 at 11:02:28
"He wouldn't just leave!" Sabine said, starting to get really worried. The two spotted the open window, and curiously looked out of it. It seemed like the only explanation, but by the time they got there, they couldn't see him at all.
Meanwhile, up above, Christine shut the window so as not to be disturbed. Her blonde hair fell all around her face. She was wearing a soft black top that slyly covered her belly, but left the sides of her waist open. It wasn't too different than anything else the lamia women wore, but seemed to be their equivalent of their 'little black dress'. She also wore long black gloves that went up to her biceps.
"Was that Sabine boring you? How about you come spend a little time with me?" Her tail removed itself from his mouth.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/07/2017 at 08:45:19
Harold had to give the naga woman an incredulous look. Granted, she looked beautiful with the black dress hugging her figure and the blond hair covering her face, but that didn't excuse what she did just now. Why would she ever try to justify kidnapping him, even when he wasn't even bored with Sabine? With his mouth un-covered, he could only scoff slightly.
"What? No!" He said angrily as he struggled slightly against her coils. "I wasn't even bored with Sabine! I just went to the window to see what the tapping was, and then you just flat-out kidnapped me! I don't care how high of a position you may have, that doesn't give you the right to nab me and then try to act like it was okay! In my culture, kid-napping someone is rude and illegal!"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/08/2017 at 01:54:56
The blonde lamia looked shocked at this. "I am so sorry, my lord. It was not my intention to kidnap you against your will. You are more than welcome to leave if you wish," she said uncoiling from him. "I only meant to provide you a way out, if you wanted it." The pretty blonde looked sad and kind of hurt by his accusations. On one hand, she might really mean her apology. On the other hand, she might be trying to manipulate him to get on his good side. Since he was "the chosen one", he technically outranked her. Upsetting him would hurt her standing among the nobility. Either way, it was clear that she intended to get some alone time with him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/08/2017 at 09:30:16
Once the calm deposition of himself finally set it, his angry huffing turned into a heavy sigh. Oh, he really stay angry at a cute naga girl like this blond one was in front of him. Besides, she did at least apologize about the whole kid-napping bit, and was allowing him to leave. But on the other hand, she probably could be trying to manipulate his feelings so that he could stick around. Either way, her little stunt did leave a slightly tainted impression, but he didn't want to feel rude in front of the woman who released him and allowed him to go. He at least could just give her some advice and get her name, so that way, they could have some alone time under a more favorable circumstance. Speaking of which, why was he called "my lord"? Well, he might as well ask the queen about that, as she might have greater knowledge about that bit.
"Look..." He said gently as he laid a hand on her thick coils. "Next time, if you want to talk to me, just ask me first. Now, I want to get back to Sabine, but I'll see you later. Sorry for blowing up on you." With that, he went to take his leave towards her door, but not before asking for one thing. "Oh, what's your name? Mines Harold."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/08/2017 at 10:17:21
Despite her offer to let him go, she really didn't have any intention of doing so. However, she had to be careful about hurting the chosen one. She slithered over and braced herself against the door. "Christina, my lord." She adopted an innocent pose as she stood between him and the door. Then her eyes began to spiral. She wasn't going to let him pick Sabine over her.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/08/2017 at 14:40:29
Harold could only stop when Christina tried to pull off the innocent card at the door, as if she wasn't trying to block his way out. Okay, now he was starting to get worried. Was this one of the more aggressive nagas that she should've been warned about. His thought was interrupt by the spirals catching into his eyes. He locked on to them and...and...he instantly moved his eyes away and covered them with his hand. He had already been hypnotized twice by the queen and Sabine. He was not gonna fall victim for it again.
"Thank you Christina, but can you please let me go?" He said as politely as he could, not willing to look at her eyes.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/08/2017 at 22:56:37
"I don't know what you mean. Won't you look at me when I'm speaking to you, my lord? It makes me feel unwanted..." she pouted, but was aggressively trying to force the hypnosis on him. However, right at that moment, there came a knock at the door.
"Harold. Are you in there?" It was Sabine. Christina grew upset. She knew it wasn't going to work out well for her. She roughly grabbed him by the arm, and threw the door open behind her. Then she shoved Harold out the door, and into Sabine's surprised arms. Without a word, the door quickly closed shut. It seemed like that was the end of the matter.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/09/2017 at 09:41:57
A big wave relief washed over him once he heard Sabines concerned voice. Here he was, just trying to avoid Christinas hypnotic gaze, and the noble he liked talking to managed to find him. He wasn't even gonna question how she managed to know he was in this room. But then, he felt a shooting pain as he felt the aggressive member of the court pull on his arm hard and threw him right into Sabines arms. With the door slamming shut and the threat now behind him (literally), he looked at the awkward hug around himself and he chuckled nervously.
"W-we were just talking, and I told her to apologize for that whole fiasco." He said nervously.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/09/2017 at 22:07:28
"I'm so glad you are ok!" Sabine said, setting him back on his feet. "I figured you must be in the room directly above mine. Down below would have been harder to pull off. And I hope you don't think too badly of her. It was uncalled for, but Lady Christina isn't used to not getting her way."
"May I get the Master anything?" Sabine's serving girl asked. The three of them wandered back down the "stairs" to her quarters. The lamia's didn't really have stairs since they didn't have legs. It was more like a ramp, in the general shapes of human stairs.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/10/2017 at 22:06:44
Harold went up the ramp-like stairs towards Sabines room, kind of amazed at how fine-tuned the stairs were. Even with a ramp, it was well-polished and all of that....did he really just spend a minute talking about stairs? No matter, they would learn more interesting things soon enough. As they neared Sabines room, he turned to the servant girl and gave her a kind smile.
"A glass of water will be fine, thank you." He said calmly.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/11/2017 at 12:06:01
She bowed and slithered off to fulfill his request. The human and the lamia noble retired to the relative safety of her room. However, it was getting late into the evening.
"That's quite enough excitement for one night. Harold, will you be staying for the night or would you prefer to return to your own room?" Right about that time, there serving girl brought him a glass of water.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/11/2017 at 13:23:57
Harold went over to the girl and took the glass of water with a smile on his face. "Thank you." He said kindly before taking a nice sip and turning towards Sabine. "If you don't mind, I would like to stay with you for tonight." He laughed slightly. "I really don't want to run into some more aggressive girls that want me as my hypnotic toy for the night."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/11/2017 at 23:37:00
Without even being instructed, the serving girl brought spare bedding, blankets, pillows, and a pad and quickly setup a makeshift bed for him. That isn't to say that it wasn't fancy or wasn't comfortable.
"Will that be all, Master and Mistress?" Sabine waved her off. "Thank you, that will be all." With that, the serving girl left to retire for the night. It was just the two of them again, preparing for their sleepover.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/12/2017 at 12:15:06
Okay, this was now starting to get awkward. He had a pretty noble naga in front of him and he didn't know what else he can do. He chuckled nervously and drank some of the water before setting it down near his makeshift bed. "Well..." He said nervously. "I suppose it's time to say goodnight and all."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/14/2017 at 01:12:35
"Good night." she said, curling around herself on her bed. Any other girl in the kingdom would have given up everything to keep him in their rooms. She didn't seem to mind him around, and didn't make it any more awkward than it was. Of course if he needed help getting to sleep... all he had to do was ask.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/14/2017 at 19:25:29
Harold went to lay himself over the make-shift bed that was provided for him and pulled the blanket over his body. He wondered if he could see the outside of the palace tomorrow. But as he tried to get some sleep and sank into the silky-soft padding, the thought of being some sort of chosen one worked upon his mind. What did the people here mean by the chosen one? He certainly was a visitor from a faraway dimension, but being an explorer didn’t meant that he was some sort of savior or anything. The palace looked well-off and prosperous, so why did they need a chosen one? Well, he would have plenty of time tomorrow to ask about the prophecy. That is, if he could get any sleep. He twisted and turned and…oh right….his little condition, insomnia.
“Darn…I can’t put myself to sleep…” He muttered loud enough for Sabine to hear.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/15/2017 at 01:25:09
Sabine sighed a little bit, hearing that he was having trouble sleeping. The fact that she knew he was having trouble meant that now she was having trouble as well. Well, there was just one solution for it... Silently her tail slipped from her bed and sought him out. His blankets lifted slightly, and a moment later her tail curled around him. Then it lifted him up and carried/ gently dragged him over to the side of her bed.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/15/2017 at 10:19:31
He nearly jumped at the tail now curled around him and dragging him off gently. He gave the form of Sabine a tired, apologetic look. "I have insomnia, okay? It makes it really hard for me to sleep ever since I was five."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/15/2017 at 22:57:29
"It's quite alright," she said, turning over to look at him. She lay stretched out on her bed, gazing at him from her side. "Just gaze into my eyes and let yourself relax. Sleep Harold... Sleep..." her eyes glowed the familiar blue. They seemed even more brilliant in the dark. Her tail began to creep around him more, slowly forming a blanket around him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/21/2017 at 23:43:38
The familiar blue glow once again enveloped his vision and he didn't resist this hypnosis this time. Unlike Christinas aggressive waves of hypnosis, these new waves washed over him gently like ocean waves upon a rock. The emerging ripples did sooth his nerves and he felt ripple after ripple of bliss and warmth that soothed his tired mindset and he began to yawn and close his eyes slowly.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/22/2017 at 10:00:55
She hadn't intended to get up at first, but then she got another idea. She slowly got up on her hands and crawled over to him. She stretched out so that they were both now eye to eye. "Sleepy Harold. Such a sleepy little human..." she gently cooed to him. Her tail continued to slip around him. She leaned in for a moment and lightly placed a kiss on his lips.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/23/2017 at 22:40:09
Okay, he could take in the fact (somewhat) that he was some special human being for being able to teleport to this alternate realm. He can certainly try, and he meant TRY, to get use to being a hypnotized play-thing as long as the girl was not treating him like a dog. BUT....if he was expected to believe that in a course of two days, that a noble was not only trying to treat him of his illness, but also decided to kiss him on the lips....he would like it, but WHAT WAS GOING ON?! Why was the universe giving him such good luck after everything he been through and...and....why was it getting so hard to think? Oh right, Sabines beautiful eyes that were making those rippling waves again. He sighed into the gentle kiss and tried to make himself comfy by wiggling into the scaly cocoon that was forming around his body.
Speaking of which, the cocoon just held him so snugly and it was so warm that...that...it was then that he gently shut his eyes and softly snored away into the realm of dreams.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/24/2017 at 23:33:25
Seeing Harold slip off to sleep, Sabine soon did the same. The makeshift bedding was forgotten as he lay on the floor in her comfy coils. Sabine stretched out on the circular mattress and pillows, her tail hanging off the side for him.
The next morning, the serving girl returned with breakfast for two. It was an honor to serve the prophesied one. She slithered in to find the two of them in an only semi-scandalous position. It would start rumors if the other noble knew. But the serving girl wasn't the kind to talk behind her mistress's back.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/25/2017 at 00:53:20
Harold was still sleeping with a small, contented smile on his face. His illness didn't come back at all during the night thanks to Sabines hypnosis calming his mind down. Every-time a whisper of his condition tried to worm it's way into his mind, the remaining ripples that began to greatly weaken in his vision forced the vestige of his condition back to where it belongs. He sighed contently and shifted slightly to the right under the snug coils that kept him warm and safe from anything. But alas, all good dreams had to come to and end someday, and that came with him yawning heavily and his eyes groggily opening, the ripples now gone. He smacked his lips quietly as he laid his head on the makeshift pillow made out of Sabines thicker coil.
"Man...that was a real nap." He said quietly as he looked up....and saw the servant girl STARING AT HIM IN SABINES COILS! What....how was he gonna get out of this one?! "Ummm...." He started to say with a light blush on his face. "Don't speak of this to anyone, please?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 03/25/2017 at 15:18:49
She shook her head, trying not to say anything to wake up her mistress. Instead she made a buttoning motion over her lips. She promised silence. Then she slithered over and gently started to undo Sabine's coils so she could serve him breakfast. However a moment later, Sabine began to stir, absently gripping him in her coils. She slowly got up and looked over at the food. "Breakfast." She sighed happily.

Harold sighed of relief at the silent gesture that meant that the servant would be bound to silence over his...scandalous position of sorts. It couldn't get anymore awkward than someone walking in an seeing a lov- friend just cuddling up another person in affection. Boy, he he almost said lover? No, no, it wasn't like that. They just met each other, and he doubt that a noble like herself was honestly interested in him. He felt like he just had this conversation with himself yesterday. Ah, it didn't really matter. What mattered was the sweet smell of breakfast that wafted into his nostrils. He struggled a little bit gently and, with a little effort, managed to slide his arms from the bed of coils and take the plate with his breakfast.

Sabine uncoiled from him and the two shared a bit of breakfast. After the ceremony and feast from yesterday, things settled down to business-as-usual around the palace again. Of course, being the only male in the entire dimension meant he continued to hold the status of most eligible bachelor.
He and Sabine spent part of the day together, however eventually another serving girl caught up with him. She informed them that Harold was being summoned by the empress. Something about completing his accommodations.
Sabine smiled, knowing that it was difficult to make time with a celebrity. "That's ok. We can spend more time later. Go ahead and see what needs to be done."

Just like the dinner last night, the fruit and juice were fantastic. Who knew that this society could make such nice uses from a mango and some milk. It was nice to know that the two weren't being flustered of gushing over him in spite of him sleeping in Sabines coils....even though they were comfy and very safe to be in. Not to mention that her hypnosis did a lot to ease his condition and helped him sleep for a longer period of time. Alas, the situation did not allow him to be with her much longer, as another servant told him he had to meet the queen once again for accommodations. He got up to his feet and gave Sabine a smile.
"Thanks for the help. I hope we meet again soon." He said before giving her a quick hug and moving off with the servant.

He was led back to the empress's throne room. As usual, there sat the empress. She was just as strikingly beautiful as she first time he had met her.
"Oh good. I am glad to see that my summons found you. I am lad to see that you are doing well and didn't do too much... feasting last night. I sent servants to your quarters last night, but it seems that you were busy." The empress raised her hands and clapped once. A rather lovely lamia girl slithered out into his line of sight and bowed to him. "This is Raina. She is to be your servant. If you require anything at all, please tell her." Raina had long black hair, a long grey tail and was only wearing a minimal gold-colored harem outfit. But this wasn't the only surprise the empress had for him.
"Also we want to be sure that our hospitality is adequate for our honored guest. You have lodging, food, drink, and now a servant to see to your every need. But there is still one thing missing. You will need clothes, more than simply the ceremony clothes you were given. So I have the bet taylor on her way. She may not be familiar with human clothes, but she is our finest and will make anything you need."

Okay, he certainly wasn't expecting his own servant, and his face could only betray the eyes of shock as he looked at his own servant. Yeah, she was pretty, just like all the rest, but perhaps he didn't mention to the queen that in his world, slavery is frowned upon and outlawed. But this was an ancient civilization that obviously hasn't deviated from their code and laws after hundreds of years, or thousands, depending on the time dilation of this realm. Besides, it's not like the servant had a choice in the matter, considering she's been groomed to serve people for a long time. He gave the servant the best nod and smile as he could. At least servants wouldn't view him as some potential toy or mate, even if he meant that he would miss their warm coils and spirals and why was he thinking such things.
He moved forward towards the queen and placed a hand on the servant girls shoulder. "It's a pleasure to have the help with my clothing and what have you." He said formally, before looking at the girl, then back at the queen. "But, can I speak to you alone first? There's something I really want to talk to you about in regards to one piece of info."
He turned back to the girl and smiled. "In the meantime, can you give me a glass of water? I am quite parched."

Raina bowed and slithered off to fulfill his request. The empress looked surprised at the request, but she nodded. "Please put any other appointments on hold for the time being." She clapped loudly and all the of the guards and nobles inside turned to leave, slithered out into the hall.
"What may I do for you?" The empress cast her gaze back to him. They were alone as he requested. She drew herself up and slithered down off the throne pillows. Despite his honorary rank, she always exuded practiced grace and power and in her demeanor. Not only that, but quite a lovely sight too.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/03/2017 at 09:44:05
With the nobles and guards now all gone, Harold could now speak alone with the Empress. He moved forward, but admittedly with a slightly flustered look on his face. He really couldn't help it. The empress still was a lovely sight to behold, especially with those hips and coils that were quite soft and strong. He really shouldn't think of such things in front of the empress, as he didn't want a repeat of when he first met her. He soon was at least only mere feet away from the empress, his eyes now looking into hers. He wondered if she would try to use her spirals to put him to sleep like last time, but he knew better than that. The empress obviously would've done so by now if that was the case.
"You see, your majesty..." He began to say calmly as he kept looking at her and twiddling his thumbs. "I am glad that we managed to start over. In fact..." He started to smile in admitted excitement and grace. "...I must say yesterday and today has been really exciting. I really do wish to learn more about you and your race. But, I have to ask, and please understand why."
That's when he frowned and leaned against the part of her throne. "I'm confused as to why I'm being called 'The Chosen one'. I can understand waiting for something like me to teleport to this strange place, but chosen one? Is there some part of the prophecy your not telling me? First, you don't know why your kind vanished from my world, but now this. I'm not a hero, and unless your telling me I can grow a tail and gain your...eye spirals, I highly doubt I'm some sort of legend to you people."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/05/2017 at 12:07:32
The empress was silent for a moment as she studied and considered her response. She slowly slithered over to him, her movements swaying back and forth as she approached.
"There isn't a prophecy per say." She started slithering around him, her tail pooling around his feet, though she wasn't coiling him. Almost like pacing, she circled around him as she studied him. "It was prophesied that a human would came back into our world. It has been the subject of much talk and much debate over the human that would return to us. It is a very sacred teaching for my people. However, after so much time, there have been... speculation. Some believe that one day you will reunite our people with your world. Some think of you as a holy figure come to give us guidance. And some... well... For some you are the only man they have ever seen. There is no prophecy about what you will do for us, only about your coming. You are given an honorary title, but some may choose to see you as more than that or less than that. As empress, I must ensure that this historic moment goes smoothly for the sake of my reign. ... Not that I mind at all." she said giving him a flirty smile.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/05/2017 at 22:30:38
He really had to avoid looking at her swaying hips and keep looking into her eyes as she explained the reality of his standing in this kingdom. Well, at the very least it meant that there wasn't a whole lot of pressure on him to do anything. However, he had to wonder if there was something going on in this kingdom that he really should need to know. It didn't really matter, as that meant he could spend more time exploring and examining every single part of the kingdom, more so on the outside. He kept a careful glance on the tail pooling at his feet, but it wasn't coiling around him. Actually, speaking of examinations, perhaps this was a prime opportunity to study the most interesting physical aspect the lamias here had to offer. No, he wasn't just saying that because he actually really liked how safe and comfy they were around his body. He had a professional side to this, honestly. Besides, would the empress really feel welcome with his hands all over her tail. Well, since he was an honorary member of their realm for the time being, might as well take advantage of that new title. He was part of the prophecy after all.
He really let the last bit of what some thought of him slip past his head. Yeah, all of them were attractive with their revealing clothes and their curves and....he has to stop. The last thing he wanted to think about was being a target for love from the other lamias. Now back to business on the coils. He smiled back and looked at her as he reached out to lay a hand on the thicker part of her sleek coils, trying to match that flirty smile she had on. "I'm glad I'm not a burden to you." He said as he gently rubbed the band of muscle and felt the muscle really just mold onto his hand. It felt really strong and though, making him wonder how she managed to have such a firm, yet gentle hold on his being when they first met.
He soon went to sit Indian-style on the floor and took the end of her tail into his arms and placed it on her lap, studying it closely. "I must say, you sure have some muscle to your coils. Are you born this way, or did you have to work on it as you get older."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/05/2017 at 23:34:20
The tip of her tail reached up and slapped his hand. "No one is allowed to touch the body of the empress!" She was both serious and not serious. Her tone was absolutely appalled by his forwardness. However, what she did next proved that she rather liked it. Her tail wrapped around the back of his shoulders and curled back around into his lap once more. She placed her tail in his hands and flexed it for him.
"A little of both. We lamia are naturally very muscled in our powerful tails. The empress has certain standards that her figure must adhere to." Her shocked expression changed to a sly smile as she enjoyed his attention that she normally wasn't allowed to have. Her tail slid over his lap and wrapped around his waist. It seemed that lamia couldn't help themselves when it came to coiling others.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/06/2017 at 09:44:59
Harold nearly dropped the tail when his hand was slapped harshly by the tail. He actually grew a bit fearful when she shouted with a tone that clearly meant she was appalled by his actions. Oh great, he was gonna get himself thrown into the prison for his touching of her tail wasn't he? But then....he felt the tail moving back into his hands after wrapping gently around his shoulders? Okay, this was pretty weird, but at least she wasn't attacking him or having the guards attack him. He had to admit though, her muscles did weigh down on his own a little bit, but it wasn't uncomfortable.
With the tail flexing on his hands, he went to gently rub it some more and moved his arms up in surprise as the powerful tail wrapped around his waist. Well, he managed to get some sort of close examination. "Well, I can certainly see that." He said as he rubbed the loop around the waist.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/06/2017 at 23:02:33
She gave him another sly smile at his fear. She seemed to like holding power over him, but at the same time she was enjoying the attention too much.
"Can you?" she asked teasingly. Her tail reached up under his chin. It lifted his head up slowly so that his eyes had time to wander over her before meeting her own. She held him there for a moment before letting him go.
Her tail slowly formed a seat underneath him, though one coil remained around his waist. The rest of her tail was practically shoving itself into his arms. For science... of course.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/07/2017 at 00:04:37
He had to suppress the shudder of surprise upon feeling her strong, yet soft tail lifting his chin up and meeting her eyes once again. Oh god, she was gonna be hypnotized again like last time, wasn't he? He really wanted to looked away from her eyes so he wouldn't be seduced like that again, but the spirals felt so good the last time they met. Why did he think so? Well, she didn't really harm him, and it was nice to get a good view of her well-made body as his eyes wandered up to her own. I mean, she was really attractive...and....strong...and....this was getting awkward. The mean red blush that formed over his cheeks just helped prove that he was kinda liking what he was seeing.
But he then felt something really comfy covering his bottom and moving closer to his waist. He looked down to see that she had made a comfortable seat for him, a rather generous position for the explorer and the empress. He grunted as he felt more of her tail pile up in his hands, but he still kept up his rubbing as he looked closely at the scales. Just as he thought, every scale lapped each color perfectly. "I must say, your scales do have a..." He started to say before thinking about his answer. "...lapped quality that is really unique. You do take great care, and I wonder how this tail and all came to be."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/07/2017 at 23:25:02
"Isn't it obvious?" he soon found that she was standing right in front of him. "Magic... enchantment... charms..." She whispered to him. "Or maybe just the legion of pampered care that an empress receives." she gave him a wink. She slithered even closer, invading his personal space. She wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Flatterer. You sure do know how to charm a girl. Go on. Don't stop. Tell me more about what you think of my scales." Her tail moved in his hands and gently caught him by both wrists. Soon she had his arms pinned to his side and her tail was slowly circling around him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/08/2017 at 01:11:23
His blushed greatly deepened as she now had her strong arms around his neck and had her face inches from his. He only wished that no one, not even his new servant, would come and see this scandalous position that the two were in. It didn't help that the empress features looked more attract up close, and he was called a charmer in the sense. He stammered slightly as the tail coiled around him and held him calmly. "Well...." He said shyly. "Your scales are shiny too, and it's really long...."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/09/2017 at 09:23:47
Where was his servant? She should have been back before now with a simple glass of water. She was probably waiting outside with everyone else since the empress had ordered that they be alone.
She smiled at his attempt. His flattery was slipping, but she thought it was cute. "Yes. They are very shiny." She let go of his neck for the moment. She leaned back and shook her hips a little. This had the effect of some of her scales catching the light. Though it wasn't the only effect it had. "And my tail is very long. Long enough to wrap around you." As she said this, her tail continued its gentle, yet unrelenting climb around him. Soon it was wrapping around his chest. She put her arms back around his neck and brought her face close to his. She stared into his eyes deeply, though no hypnosis yet.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/10/2017 at 00:39:45
Okay, now he would really want to have his water right about now, if only to try to get himself out of this compromising position. Well, it's not that he didn't enjoy the Empress's beauty, but he really didn't know what she was gonna do to her once she make him fall under her hypnosis. He knew it was coming, he was just didn't know when, and his arms were pinned to his sides.
"And....your coils are really comfy..." He said with a deep blush on his face. "I can't seem to get out of anyones coils today, or ever since I got here actually."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/12/2017 at 10:13:46
This made her stop for a second, a horrified expression on her face. "Anyone's coils?" she repeated as a question. "So you've been coiled up by some of the other lamia?" It wasn't that she didn't mind sharing him, but she looked embarrassed for him.
"I am so sorry. Some women cannot seem to... behave themselves." She was starting to blush as she was partially referring to herself. "I think my flirting may have gotten out of hand." It isn't as if the empress got all that much flirting to begin with. He was still coiled, though she wasn't grabbing onto his neck anymore. Also her coils weren't holding him as tightly anymore. "You'll have to forgive me."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/19/2017 at 12:35:34
"Well....yeah." He said in embarrassment, a light blush carpeting his face. "Fist Sabine and one of the judges kinda coiled me up, but the former actually helped me sleep better, being a man with insomnia and all." With the thick coils now loosened around his chest, he managed to wiggle his arms out of his sides and began to rub at the middle coil around his waist. "Don't get me wrong..." He began to say while looking at the now-flustered empress. "I appreciate the coiling and the warmth. I will admit that their comfy, with yours being the best so far. But..." He looked down, trying to fin the right words to say to the ruler of the oasis. "I just wished I was warned before I was being pulled along like a toy. I really would like to explore the entire place to its full detail, and if you want to accompany me, I would appreciate it, cause I have a lot of questions to ask."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/19/2017 at 12:57:46
The empress actually took a moment to bow gratefully to him. "I am not available to accompany you just yet, though perhaps we can set up some time later and I can show you the royal archives. As for insomnia... that is something that the lamia have cured long ago. It takes more than a few sessions, as I'm sure you are familiar with." She gave him a wink. "If you find yourself needing help, let me know. We cannot have our guest of honor unable to sleep." She uncoiled from him and slithered back over to the throne. "For now, I have made you an appointment to see our tailor and I'm sure your new servant can help show you around as well."
Out of their compromising position, she clapped loudly and the doors swung open. Guards slithered into the room again, as well as his lovely serving girl with his request glass of water.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/21/2017 at 23:28:30
He nodded in understanding as he got up and bowed slightly. "It was an honor to meet you once again, your majesty." He said respectfully as he move off towards the servant. As he went to leave with his lovely servant, he turned to the empress one last time and smiled gratefully. "If you want to talk or just hang out, I'll be around , just ask." He left his little invitation with a wink as he moved off with the servant to the tailor. Along the way, he encounter the same old hallway as before, but nevertheless, it did have pillars that had green marble and even polished granite meld into one frame of simplistic beauty. He turned to his servant and took the glass of water, taking a sip as he looked around.
"Say..." He began to say as he looked around. "Once we get this clothing thing over with, how about you take me to the outer parts of the city? I would love a tour from a nice lady like yourself."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/23/2017 at 10:35:19
"Of course, Master." she said, bowing slightly. As two of them continued on, they eventually came across a hallway in the palace. The hallway was littered... or rather... decorated with clothes lines. Each one was hung with fabrics and a few outfits. They had to weave around the hanging fabrics, but eventually reached the door. She knocked on the door for him.
A moment later, it was answered by a lamia girl who looked quite a bit more eccentric than most of the other lamia he had met. She had her hair dyed a bright pink, and had a red-ish tail. Her top was very simple, but there was a collection of different fabrics that hung from it and formed a curtain around her navel. His servant bowed "I present, my master... Harold, the Divine Visitor." She moved to one side, so Harold was visible from the door way. The tailor gasped and her tail shot out like lightning. It wrapped around his waist and dragged him inside. She quickly put him down in a very comfy chair.
"Oh it is an honor to work with you... No one has had the pleasure of making human clothes in forever. I hope the ones I made for the ceremony fit you ok. We can get to work on getting you some more things to wear." She had already grabbed his foot, popped off his shoe, and was studying his feet.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/23/2017 at 11:29:48
Harold eyes and mouth went a bit wide with awe over the different types of fabric that draped the hallway. He had to admit that some of these designs were really exotic indeed, as he would expect from a palace like this. He bowed slightly as the servant made him visible to whoever designed these pieces of cloth. "Hello, it's nice to-" He started to say before the lamia showed herself. The different sorts of fabric and the pink hair certainly did make him feel shocked at how...eccentric she was, but she was by no means less beautiful. "Ummm..." He gulped and gave her a nervous smile. "It's nice to- OH GOD!" She screamed out as another tail wrapped around his waist a quickly pulled her along. Why do the cute ones have to be the most un-predictable!? IT took only a second for his body to land on the chair and his bewildered expression aimed at the eccentric nagas face.
"H-hey! A little warning would've been nice!" He said with a slightly blush on his face as his foot was touched and studied.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/23/2017 at 22:38:06
The tailor ignored his protests, she just continued to study his foot. She broke out her tape measure, and began to measure just about every possible angle of his foot. She also gently, yet firmly studied how each of his joints moved. His foot was getting a bit of a massage as well as she figured out where his bones were. After a few moments, it seemed they could practically recreate a 3D model of his foot just from her measurements. While she worked, she said nothing directly to him.
"Ummm... Master... This is Ms. Carol. Emily Carol. She is the finest tailor in the kingdom, possibly the world," his servant introduce him in order to break up the awkward silence.
Emily moved from his foot to working on his ankle. Then when she was satisfied, tested out his knee. At least she wasn't hypnotizing him or coiling him up. Other than placing him in the seat, her tail had retreated and never once came near him again...
"Off with your pants," she said abruptly. He was still wearing the harem pants from the ceremony the other day. If she was going to perfect the art of human pants, then she was going to need to see his legs.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/23/2017 at 23:10:30
The massage didn't really help his protests over how this tailor was handling the parts of his body. But of course, in keeping with her lifestyle, she was completely ignoring his acts of protests. He could only sigh and resign to the rather relaxing massage that he was getting on his foot. He wondered what sort of clothing the naga would be making for him. Certainly something great if it was taking this long for her to study his foot. Was his foot gonna have some overblown slippers for his toes? Well, at least she wasn't the type that was coiling or hypnotizing him, but he really couldn't tell if she was saving that for later. That's exactly what happened last time.
Then she just told him to remove his pants, and he blushed and went to take his pants off. "I swear, if you do anything to my...you know..." He mumbled under his breath as he took of his pants, revealing his undergarments.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/23/2017 at 23:49:47
For the first time, Emily actually acknowledged something he said, "You're what...?" Her eyes narrowed as she glared at him. Then she slapped him across the face. "I will not be messing with your hair..." she muttered darkly, completely not understanding what he was getting out. Eccentric and feisty. Meanwhile, his serving girl had to look politely away as her face turned bright red.
"Stand up." she ordered. She got a little personal, measuring his inseam, but it was over quickly. The rest of it did not. It felt like he was standing there for an hour before she finally was satisfied. While she was at it, she made measurements of the rest of him too, but since tops were very familiar territory for lamias, she didn't have to work so hard.
"Excellent. This shall be my greatest accomplishment. I hope to rival even the best human tailors in your world. Perhaps one day they will be coming to me for advice on pants making." She provided him another set of simple clothes that were loose and fairly easy for her to make. "Come back tomorrow, and I should have a set of outfits for you."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/25/2017 at 21:45:52
He flinched at the rather painful slap delivered by the feisty naga. Okay, maybe he kinda deserved that, but at least she didn't know that he meant something else. Beyond that, he kept his mouth shut during the whole ordeal, unless he wanted another painful slap from the lamia woman. He kept himself still for as long as he could until she felt him put some clothing into his arms. "Thanks, but don't hit me again." He said in a grateful, but later firm tone. "I wouldn't like to tell the empress that you laid a hand on my face." Okay, he was trying to use his title to at least make think twice from hitting her again, but what was he suppose to do. "Even though I may have deserved it, so bye!" He quickly ran off, grabbing his servant by the hand and taking her out before the fashionista could react. Once they were out of the place, he let go of her hand and tried to smile back.
"Some woman, isn't she?" He said with a nervous chuckle. "So, that tour I was talking about...OH! Can you actually help me with the leggings for my....legs? I wanna see how they fit."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/26/2017 at 23:42:14
He was probably lucky she wasn't going to gamble her reputation and make his clothes too small.
"Of course, Master." his personal serving girl said, her face still a little red. She wasn't entirely sure what to do. Presumably, he legs worked kind of like arms, though she wasn't positive. Taking his pants, she found that there was a "sleeve" for each of his legs. She dropped down in front of him to help him in any way she could.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 04/26/2017 at 23:52:00
He simply went to slide in his legs into each hole, trying to help her quickly get this over with. He had to admit that the clothing her got was even more comfy than the harem pants. What kind of fabric did these people harvested for the clothing. "You know..." He said awkwardly. "If you just want to show me to my room, we can go and share some stories. I have a few that are complete zingers for you."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 04/27/2017 at 23:07:23
She blinked at him a little on confusion. "Of course, Master. I can show you to your room. But you must forgive my ignorance. What is a zinger?" she asked, not understanding at all what he meant. "I'm afraid I haven't any stories that would interest you, Master." That wasn't entirely true, she just didn't know him well enough to know what he would be interested in or not.
Having been around the Empress and Sabine, Harold would note some things about servants that were different than other cultures. Despite waiting on the nobility and seeing to their every need, being a servant was an occupation in this culture, though not quite a butler. Servants were fed, clothed, and housed rather well. The job requirements meant that they had to be extremely well versed in etiquette, and were promptly on time with their duties. Being a servant was a full time responsibility, however they got their own time off and sometimes holidays. Nobility weren't really allowed to abuse, mistreat, or order them to be dishonest. The servants had their own structure and union that looked after them. Of course, there were exceptions to any group of people.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 05/04/2017 at 21:12:50
"A zinger means the stories interesting." He said with a grin as he went off towards his room. He noticed just how well-fed and treated this servant was. It seemed that unlike earth, or at least to some civilizations on earth, the servants here were treated almost as if their part of the home. They were of course, but they seemed to look less like servants and more like paid workers from his world. They looked as though they were treated well and are actually trained to be polite to any guest on any occasion.
He eventually got to his room and went over to his back-pack on the bed. At least his backpack wasn't tampered with. He un-zipped it and began to rummage through it. "Well then, as far as stories go..." He said as he moved through the stuff he had. "...I have a few objects that have it's own story. AH!" He said with a smile as he took out a large emerald. "There we are! How about I tell you a story about how I got this jewel?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 05/04/2017 at 22:23:12
She happily followed him to his room. She couldn't help but wonder what sort of zingers he had. When they got there, she sat on the edge of his bed, watching him curiously as he rummaged through his things. She gasped out loud as he pulled out the emerald. "Oh! It's beautiful." As she gazed at it, the light struck it just right and her eyes almost seemed to glow green with its light. She leaned forward to get a good look, something that her skimpy outfit wasn't meant to do. "Tell me about that one, Master."
Re: Alternate reality

In spite of her skimpy outfit showing a bit more that what he was use to, he kept a composed expression and a calm grin on his face. He set the emerald on his right side on the bed and he went to lay on the bed. "Well..." He began to say. "It all started about two years ago when I decided to join a hiking expedition to the rocky mountains and..." He then realized something: she probably didn't know what the Rockies were. "Well, the Rockies are a mountain range in a country called the United States. So anyway, we were hiking for the past few days and we came across this cave that was about a mile long, or so it seemed. I decided that it was appropriate that I go first, and so I did. I grappled myself down and I could see the immense pleasures that filled the area. Crystals, underground lakes, and caverns that had a host of floors. When I got to the corner of one room to the right, I found this."
He said this as he tapped on the emerald that still shined brightly in the light. "It was a real beauty, and it was pretty light for a gem the size of my hand. But that's not the real exciting part. When I took it, I accidentally fell about five feet to another room below and I had to hike my way back out, but I saw the most beautiful crystals. Many of which were purple, pink, even blue and they were sparkling with the highest clarity....and then I had to hike up walls of slime and eventually got out."
He sighed happily and took the emerald back in his hands. "You know, I've been exploring things all my life, but I never thought this would be my greatest find yet. Tell me, has your kinda ever tried to venture outside of the oasis? I can't seriously believe that your the only species on this planet."

"Were you scared? I mean when you fell?" she asked, completely taken with his story. None of it was intentional, but she stretched out on his bed, showing off her figure a bit.
"Well. We have ventured out quite a bit. If I remember my history lessons correctly, when we were part of your world, everyone assumed the world was flat. Then when the worlds were separated, it was believed that we only got a small pocket dimension. But we have things like stars, which might indicate we have an entire planet. So yes, we have expanded out quite a bit more than you see here, but not as much as we did on your world. Plus, our snake tails are good for many things. But long distance travel isn't one of them. Also many methods of transportation that humans used were unavailable to us. Partly because of the sand, partly because we have trouble fitting ourselves in."

Harold took all of what she said into account, trying his best to avoid the fact that her curves and....other things were more clear with her leaning forward. It wasn't really easily hiding the tinge of pink hiding over his cheeks. He rubbed the back of his head and curiously looked over to her with a confident smile and a shake of his hand. "What, no..." He said casually. "I mean I was, but I took all the steps to make sure that didn't happen again. Plus, I had to keep a cool head If was gonna get out of there alive."
He then moved over to the edge and eyed her coils. "Well, I have to say that for living in the environment that doesn't give you a lot of options to travel, those tails look pretty strong and well-groomed. As for transport, I'm sure I could find you some pictures." With that, he went to take out a few pictures that showed him in a helicopter and his car, which was a standard ferrari of sorts. "A lot has changed, and so as how we get ourselves around. We actually have made machines that can fly around places in a mattter of hours, days even."

She leaned in close to study the pictures with him. She was very close. From his experience, the lamia seemed to have different ideas about personal space than some humans did. She seemed to trust her new master though. She placed her arms around his shoulders. "I am no scientist, but how does that even fly?" she pointed to the helicopter. "It doesn't even have proper wings like a bird." The idea of helicopter flight was just unimaginable to the lamia. Then she looked at the ferrari. "I see... so sort of a horse-less chariot. 4 wheels. But it does not look like it would cross desert dunes very well. I assume the driver can see out of this device somehow?" The idea of tinted windows were odd to her as well. One other thing that Harold would have noticed from the feast is that lamia do not really use chairs. Sitting like a human isn't necessary for them, they prefer to coil themselves as a seat. Even the empress' throne is mean for standing or laying on comfortably rather than a human chair. Seating for a vehicle for lamia would be something different entirely.

"Well, it uses an engine and the four propeller blades to make it hover and uses a great deal of force to counter the weight." He said while pointing to the propellers on the helicopters. "The read blades allow the machine to stay afloat, and as for the car...no, a desert would destroy it and that would suck. That costed like 40,000 dollars." Not like she would know what a dollar is, but his tone would indicate that the car was expensive. "There are cars that are suited for desert travel though." He then noticed that her face was kind of...close to his own, and she had her arms around his neck. Why did she had her arms around his neck? God, he could feel her breath tickling his face and her own lips close to his own. He figured that their idea of personal space was different, but not this different! He gulped a little and tapped on her shoulder.
"Ummm..." He said with a deeper blush on his face. "You sure like to get up close and personal with me. I have to admit that your really comfortable around me, and I'm glad that your not afraid, but really this..ummmm...."

"Oh! I am so sorry, Master!" she hastily moved away to give him space. Then she remembered that she was on his bed. She quickly moved off his bed so that she was back on the floor again. It wouldn't do at all to get a poor performance complaint on her first day assisting the chosen one.
"Please forgive me." she bowed, holding herself bent as she waited for him to make a decision.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 05/21/2017 at 23:04:37
The decision came with him getting off the bed and awkwardly rubbing her head gently. "It's okay..." He said with a nervous chuckle in his voice. "I mean, if you wanted to know me, you need only to ask, and I don't mind your closeness." He started to laugh. "After being coiled a few times, I think being in your coils wouldn't affect me much negatively." He then looked at her coils and sat on the floor, reaching over and rubbing one thick section and frowned at the knots in the muscle.
"Sheesh. When's the last time that you loosened up? You seem really tense."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 05/22/2017 at 23:51:07
"It isn't my place to be so forward with my Master." she said, though it seemed like every other lamia couldn't keep their tails off of him.
She started to grow alarmed as he reached for her tail. "Wait! Master? What are you doing? Oh!" She gasped as he started to massage her tail. "I ummm... N-never. It isn't my... ohhh... It isn't my job to loosen up. Its really important to be... tense. Uhhh..." She groaned as he worked at her tail. She bit her lip nervously. It felt really nice and she wasn't used to her serv-ee paying attention to her well being.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 05/29/2017 at 15:36:22
"Yeah, I'm sure being tense helps being a great servant right?" He said sarcastically as his made his fingers press deeply into the muscles on her tail. This may have seem like he was being really forward with her, but he didn't care. It was fitting if he tried to help her relax as well, seeing as how the girls kept relaxing him in any way they could. His fingers moved upwards slowly, tracing some of her smooth scales as he got to the thicker portion of the tail
"You know, you can just say that it feels good." He said dismissively. "Really, at this point, I won't be surprised."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 05/31/2017 at 22:37:52
"Yes Master!" she gasped. "As you wish, Master. I will say that it feels... Uhhh! ... good..." Her tail was like putty in his hands as he stroked her scales. Soon her tail began to almost literally melt into his touch. Her human-like half sank further to the floor as she received her first massage in a very long time.
"But why, Master?" she groaned. "Thank you, that is most generous of you."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 06/02/2017 at 21:51:42
"Why?" He asked as he moved higher up the coils, having to wrap the thicker length around his shoulders so that the coil would rest in his arms. He raced his fingers on the sheer muscle and scales to feel the smoothness and sleekness of the enter body. "Well..." Okay, he was stuck on the reason why, other that making her melt in his grip. "You probably might be doing this to my entire body anyway, so might as well do this to you for a change." He put on a devious grin and pulled a bit more of her tail into his arms and rubbed more deeply into the muscle. Oh man, she did have the knots on her being in full.
"You know, if you wanna wrap me up, you might as well." He said simply as he slowed the rubbing. "After that happening to me twice, I'm to surprised anymore. Do you lamias honestly...or at least some of you...want me because i'm the first guy you've laid eyes on, like the empress said?" He said with a raised eyebrow. He really had to know.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 06/02/2017 at 22:12:09
"Oh no Master, I couldn't do that. It's not what I want, but what you want." Her decorum training may have been forgotten while he massaged her, but she still knew her place. He was going to have to ask for it if he wanted it. Even still, as he massaged her tail, her coils curled in pleasure. The coils positioned around his neck ended up curling around it for a moment before curling the other way. Meanwhile, he had her sprawled out everywhere. Her human half was laying on her stomach on the floor. As he worked his way along her tail, he was eventually coming up on her human half.
"Well Master..." she muttered from the floor between gasps and sighs. "It is true that you are the only male that anyone in this world has ever seen. No one is still around during the time that we were separated. Not only that though... It's natural instinct for lamia to curl up around something or someone new. Call it part of our evolution. Of course, it isn't considered polite to coil up a stranger in our civilized society, but sometimes they cannot help themselves."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 06/06/2017 at 08:57:13
Okay, maybe the tail curling around his neck tightly before relaxing kinda made him realize that he could be taking this a bit too far. However, this girl really needed to relax, and her muscles and scales felt so smooth and great on his fingers. As he approach her human hips, he stopped to give those parts and extra squeeze. You know, he just wanted to at least relax those muscles before he began to move up. not that he was trying to be a perv or anything, even those those hips had the right amount of curves and she must have been working- okay, he had to stop. He kept moving ad pressing her hips as much as he could before he stopped and removed his hands.
"Okay, I think that's enough for now." He said with a satisfied sigh. "Now, as for payment..." He got a playful grin and he went over and picked up her tail. "Can you...coil me up and help me relax too? I mean, just so that way we can at least be loose together." He suddenly stopped and face-palmed. "Oh god, that was horrible. "
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 06/07/2017 at 13:09:49
"Oh but Master...!" she groaned as her back was so tight. But she stopped herself as she remembered her place. "Thank you, Master. No need for payment. All you need to do is ask. That is what I'm here for." She found it a little hard to get up. Her tail was so relaxed, it took a moment to get it to respond. She propped herself up on her arms and slowly crawled around to face him directly. When she finally could work her tail, it began to wind its way around his legs.
"So different from scales..." she muttered to herself, something that was outside good servant decorum. Her eyes studied her work as her tail climbed higher up to his knees and then his thighs.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 06/10/2017 at 22:48:03
He really flinched a little out of reflex as his servants tail began to wrap itself around the legs and thighs. It didn't feel strange in a wrong way, but it didn't feel right in some way. It felt as though he was being trapped and held against his will with every band of pure muscle wrapping itself around his lower body. He had to bite his lip a little in nervousness as the tail soon covered his legs entirely, so that he couldn't even see anything of his limbs beyond the scales rubbing against him gently. It was feeling really nice actually.
"Speaking of which." He said shakily. "Are you experienced in treating some health problems?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 06/13/2017 at 08:49:27
She sat directly in front of him, getting quite close. She watched his legs as the last of them disappeared under her scales. Then her tail reached up and gently took first one wrist and then the other. She lifted both of his arms up over his head. She was about to do more, when he asked about health problems. She stopped what she was doing, her tail freezing in place. Her eyes went wide with concern. "I am not, Master. But I will do what I can. I can get you to a hospital if need be. What ails you? Maybe you can tell me where it hurts?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 06/19/2017 at 14:28:42
"Well, it's not really a physical injury, per say." He said while scratching the back of head in embarrassment. Why do all the nagas have to be so close to him? Actually, he really didn't mind, as he could see more of her pretty face and the lips and....actually, he wasn't gonna suppress that. She did look really cute all concerned for his health. Why was he surrounded by all the beautiful girls in this kingdom? He really should be lucky that he had the attention of a noble, an empress, and his own servant of sorts. Anyway, he was really getting off-track with his all. He sighed and leaned his head in closer so that at least his spoken words wouldn't be heard outside of his and his servants personal spaces. "It's more of a mental issue. I have trouble falling asleep, basically insomnia." He said as he rubbed his temples. "I tried to take medicine, but most didn't really help out much, and it's kind of a severe case. Like, I cannot sleep for a few hours even when it's after dark."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 07/07/2017 at 18:39:05
"You have trouble sleeping?" she asked out loud. Then one could practically see the light bulb go off from her shift in her facial expressions.
"Well I could always... help you out. We can get you to sleep. And I can see about ensuring that you sleep better, even when you aren't under a spell." Her eyes began to glow a sort of golden color. But she stopped all at once the moment that she started. "That is, if my master commands it."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 07/28/2017 at 13:16:42
"Without a trance?" He said with his eyebrows raised in an interested expression. So they could help him out with his problem without putting him in a trance? Well, he might as well at this state.
"Okay then..." He said with a confident nod. "Show me, and keep it nice. Your eyes are quite alluring." He was peaking the truth, as her eyes did have a golden glow.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 07/30/2017 at 15:10:37
She moved in closer and practically slid into his lap. Her eyes were glowing once again. "Now I need you to go to sleep, but we are going to work on some of the things that keep you from sleeping. We are going to reprogram you to sleep better on your own." She wasn't so good at this whole, hypnotic induction thing, but at least she wasn't sinister or forceful about it. It was kind of matter-of-fact and comforting. "What do you think about when you cannot sleep? Do you feel helpless to let yourself relax?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 08/15/2017 at 09:15:51
He could practically blush as he felt her slid into his lap. He felt her warmth so close to his own, and he wondered if being cuddled by a naga was part of the so-called therapy she was talking about, or at least implying. Well, at least when he peered into her glowing eyes, he could sense no ill-intent of forceful action in them, just a sense of calm and a feeling that he would be alight. He could already feel the glowing sensation penetrate his own eyes and force him back slightly in a mental recoil. The glowing eyes made sure to mop up any resistance he had, or lack of anyway, since there was no chance he was gonna miss his chance to rid himself of something that deprived him of good sleep. It didn't take long for his pupils to shrink slowly until they were gone and replaced by glowing spirals.
"I....I...I feel helpless when I do." He said slowly and with a tired yawn. "It feels as if my body wants to torment me with tiredness."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 08/27/2017 at 11:16:19
His serving girl made herself comfortable in his lap. She moved in closer with her eyes. Her blonde hair spilling around him as they were practically eye to eye.
"Let's get rid of those feelings of helplessness. Your body isn't working against you. You just need to allow yourself to relax. I want you to remember how this feels as you fall under. You're going to hold onto this feeling and remember it. No more helplessness. No more anxiety. Just... sleeeep..." Her eyes never once letting up as they worked their spell on him.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 09/20/2017 at 12:54:37
If he was in a normal state of mind right now, he certainly would feel anxious at seeing a lovely girl on his lap and practically pressing her forehead to his. However, no feelings of anxiety entered his mind, nor did he feel any tension whatsoever. All he could feel was the increasing bliss wrapping around his tiring mind, comforting him with soothing symphonies of color. It was all telling him to stop worrying and go to sleep, be at peace from the torture of his condition and just let it all carry him off to the land of dreams. It certainly helped that the coils flexed and held him so gently, that it felt like a forming blanket. His hands, in his dream-like stupor, went to the coil around his waist and rubbed it gently, trying to see if she could wrap him up a bit more in a coil blanket.
Eventually, he yawned and his eyes gently closed, and he softly snored with him drifting off to sleep
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 09/24/2017 at 23:02:44
She smiled with satisfaction as he fell completely under. It was entirely possible that she had just cured him of his sleep problems, though its also possible it might take few sessions. Which she didn't mind at all. Her coils draped around him like the blanket that he seemed to be searching for. Then she settled in beside him and fell asleep as well. The next morning, she would be right there at his side, ready to serve him some more.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 12/16/2017 at 09:36:32
The next morning, Harold proceeded to wake up slowly, his eyes squinting at the rays of sunlight suddenly bursting into the room he was in. He let out a groan and finally managed to find the strength to open his eyes and looked around. He could see that he was back on the silk bed, and in the covers up to his chest too. Well, as much as he would like to stay in the warmth of this soft bed, he really wanted to get up and find more information about this kingdom. He went to try and pull the covers off....the keyword being "try". When he looked down, he could see three bands of coils holding him gently, with his arms pinned by shifting muscle.
Okay, he did let out a smile at this as he remembered what happened last night. That girl did her glowing eye trick and everything when dark after that, which meant he actually managed to get some full sleep for once. In fact, considering he was her servant, was she...yep, when he turned his head to the right, he could see her sleeping face just next to her. She had a happy smile on her face, and he honestly did find it really adorable and all. Well, no sense in waking her up after her help last night, and he was more-than-capable of getting ready on his own. Plus, he did found that, with a little wiggle to his movements, he actually managed to inch his arms out from the coils, implying that she may have kept them loose enough so that he could get out if he needed to.
So, after a good few minutes of inching his way out, he managed to pry his arms free and gently pushed the bottom-part of the cocoon from his waist-downward, freeing him. Once that was over with, he quietly pushed the covers off, got up, and walked over to the bathroom to clean himself up. By the time the servant was even starting to wake up, he was already out with his standard white garb on from before, but he had the sleeves rolled up.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 12/16/2017 at 10:02:19
She smiled to herself as she slept and her coils curled up around... nothing. Her coils were empty. She slowly sat up, yawned and stretched. Her figure shifting as she got her muscles working again. Then she opened her eyes and looked at him from the bed. Her long blonde hair was a mess.
"Oh. Good morning master. Sorry I didn't have breakfast waiting for you." He didn't seem at all upset, so it was just something to say. She noticed his eyes on her, but she didn't mind too much. She curiously noticed his sleeves rolled up.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/01/2018 at 11:57:51
"It's alright." He said dismissively with a hand-wave. "I'll just get something from the mess hall. OH and..." He moved over to pat her dis-leveled head with a small smile. "Thanks for the therapy sessions...thing. It really helps." He then moved back and noticed just how freaking adorable she really looked, with that dis-leveled hair and her tired expression on her clean face. Wait....what was he honestly saying right now? Maybe he should step out of the room to find a better place to get some fresh air. With that mild blush on his cheeks, he walked his way out of the room.
"You just lay there and get yourself rested and all that." He said quickly. "I'll be waiting." After that, he found himself walking down the large hallway of the entire kingdom of sorts. As he walked down the hallway, he began to realize something: he never once knew or even asked how the kingdom even got here from Earth in the first place, or how they even forgot about their place on his world. Granted, he would imagine that years of spending their lives in this new area would make their knowledge of Earth all but forgotten, but did they knew what brought them there, even at least a hint?
He did remember the large jar of sorts that he held onto that sent him here. Did they even know how it would work? Wait....could he even go back home? That last one really sent a pang of dread into his mind and it made his eyes widen in fright. If they didn't know how it would work, how could he go home? His family....they wouldn't see him ever again if that were to happen. No, he would find a way back. If this kingdom lasted this long after leaving Earth, then maybe they had records of the device. Yeah, he could do so with that.
It was then that he looked back up from his thoughts and felt a painful jab, making him grunt. "Ow, what the-" He started to say until his eyes looked at what jabbed him. It was the corner of the mess hall table. Oh, he must've walked right into the hall without him looking. Well, at least he can eat breakfast first before he went to find some records....or at least until another naga girl tried to take him away.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/07/2018 at 21:35:52
Of course some naga girl w as going to grab his attention. He really could have any woman he wanted... as long as he didn't mind scales and clingy. That seemed to be the only common factor, besides beauty. The other thing that occupied his mind was the artifact he had originally picked up. After being taken by the guard, the artifact was taken away. He would either need to locate a library or perhaps find out where the artifact was taken.
As he pondered all this, he was interrupted by one of those lamia girls. "May I take you order? Oh my!" she gasped. She hadn't realized who she was addressing. She was cutely dressed as a waitress. She hastily bowed to him. "I mean... how may I serve you?" She seemed suddenly nervous about having an honored guest.
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 01/20/2018 at 12:27:52
"Hmmm, oh!" He said in surprise as he eyed the cute lamia waitress bowing to him. Wait, was she really cute? Let's push that aside for now. He blushed slightly at the thought and hummed a little. "Well, how about some meat and eggs? I'm really not picky right now. Oh, and do you know where some sort of library or record place would be?" He added that last part so quickly that it would seem that it flowed a little un-naturally. Still, he really had to know what he could do to get back home soon.
"Tell you what..." He said as he walked over and patted the waitress on the head. Hopefully it wouldn't be seen as something so forward. "...I'll just have it in my room. Bring it to me on the double and i'll...find a way to pay you back."
Re: Alternate reality
Post by Perilous on 01/21/2018 at 15:14:45
The waitress lamia stared back with a stunned expression. The Chosen One had patted her on the head. She didn't even have time to react to his question about the Royal Library. "Oh... ok. Right away, sir." She was a little confused about being invited back to the Chosen One's quarters.
Meanwhile, back at his apartment, his serving girl was just finishing cleaning up the place. "Oh Master, you're back." she said, greeting him in her skimpy gold harem outfit. "Did you have a good breakfast?"
Re: Alternate reality
Post by MrGrimm on 03/08/2018 at 07:18:35
Wait, that really made him think when he got back; the woman didn't even answer his question about the library. Was...was she going to get his breakfast to his room?! That really made his eyes widen in shock and his jaw going slack, partially from that and upon seeing his cute servant wearing such an....appealing harem dress. This kinda made him get a rather shocking implication. If other nagas saw him and if the serving girl came in, then he would be....wait...why is he even surprised at this point?
He sighed as he made his way to the edge of the bed and looked at his servant. "You're looking lovely this morning, like the dress. I just think I need to go back to the garden."
