Shadows are Our Guest

Orianna sighed blissfully as she sat in her garden, drinking a pleasant black tea to settle her from the twenty macaroons she'd eaten prior. Today was so pleasant and quiet, even Theresa's nagging was at its minimum today.

Tobias was searching some herbs and flowers he found in one of his magic tomes around the forest, while looking at the picture and the path for not trip with something in the ground he found a small flame shaped herb "Oh, this is one of the book" he pick up some leaves and continue searching after finding a curious looking castle "maybe the inhabitants of this place have some herbs" he entered and look around " this is an amazing castle".

Orianna raised her head as one of the Pitcher Midara came to the garden from the castle front, informing her of the arrival of an unknown human. "Oh, another guest! Excellent!"

Tobias was exploring the castle going deeper and deeper "Hello, anyone here?" he asked while looking for someone who live in the castle until finaly arriving the garden, he saw the woman and make a reverence at her, "Sorry for arriving so suddenly,my name is Tobias a witch apprentice".

"Oh, the apprentice to a witch! How interesting, not many like that are so polite!" Orianna cheered from her table of sweets.

"Oh, Serila? What an amazing coincidence! She was hear fairly recently, how is she?" She raised her attention to the herbs and supplies and then asked him, "Any materials in particular? Perhaps I can help your search."

"Oh, I believe I have a few of those," she rises from her seat and gestures for him to follow. Taking a stroll through the garden, a fenced off portion comes slowly into view filled with red flowers. The flowers matching Tobias's description.

"Tobias, I planted and nurtured these flowers, I think I would know a thing or two about them... And have experience with what they can do." She'd actually burned herself and one of her dresses on one weeks ago, but she wouldn't outright admit it. "Pray tell, what kind of uses will this serve?"

"these flowers are perfect amplifiers for fire type magic and,if you uses her petals for tea ,it will restore all of your vigor in a minute" he said taking another and place a flask of water in his hand making a little flame for boil it then place the one he took and the water turn red,the aroma was sweet and relaxing, "there ,take a sip" he offered Oriana the flask with the tea.

"Oh, thank you." Orianna took a sip at his word and felt a rush of pleasant warmth and energy. "It's actually quite nice. Perhaps with a bit of fruit, it could work even better...?"

"That is a great idea miss" said tobias adjusting his little pointed hat while smiling sudenlly he let out a little yawn, "sorry my house is far from here and i walked so much for searching the flowers.

"If you'd like, I can provide you a room in my home to rest. And if you're hungry at all, feel free to ask of it," she told him. She was pleased to know such great tea could be made from such hazardous flowers.

"Thanks i really want to rest i little,the walk took a lot of my energy" he said smiling taking the offer while keeping his pointed hat letting his red hair take some fresh air "you are a nice host" he said blushing slightly.

"Oh I simply enjoy new faces and fresh company," she explained. "Besides, you gave me some interesting information about these flowers."

"is a pleasure to hear that, i have more flowers in my book if you like to get more information about them" he said while pulling out the book from his hat and give it to her, "Where is that room?" Said tobias blushing slightly while looking the beautifull Orianna.

She'd taken notice of his staring, simply choosing to feign ignorance for now as she took the book he handed her and cycled through the pages. "My goodness, these would all be such gorgeous additions to my garden." A bee maid appeared drawing his attention for a moment.

"Guest rooms are inside the castle in West wing! Of you'd follow me~!"

"Thanks" he followe the Bee maid trying to not fall sleep at mid path and staring around taking note of the castle Places he yawned a little again this time putting his hand in his mouth he caress his eye a little.

The maid giggled as she led him through the halls to a guest room, lavishly furnished and made for comfort. Orianna sighed pleasantly as she drank more tea from the flask, preparing for a fun time.

"Thanks miss" he said sitting on the bed and stretch a litle before letting his body fall on the confy bed and start to close his eyes then he finally fall asleep in the bed "this is so confy".

"If you're quite comfortable, would you mind if I joined you?" Orianna entered the room dressed in her incredibly thin lace purple nightgown. The fabric was so unbelievably light, it moved like a feather as she strode into the room, yet never lifted upward to flash her naked goods. Not that it needed to, again, the key word being "thin". It was practically see-through and left little to the imagination, but by the damned did it give this night creature a reason to be admired.

(sorry for the wait i was trying to buy rice paper but the shop was still closed )

After a brief nap tobias woke up finding Orianas in her nightgown he blushed slightly before asnwer her question "j-join me,well that will be a pleasure if your majesty join me" he said trying to control his other half and not let him take control of his body, "come on,just let me take control of this" "not this time,the last one you fucked up the situation" he said in a low tone to himself.

"Something the matter, Tobias? You seem a bit distracted, ah, and not in the same way you were earlier." She approached the bed and got on all fours on the mattress, crawling towards him slowly. "It's quite flattering to see a young man blush my way, especially as most of my guests are more business- or aggression-first."
