Vale Asterlight Vs. Sheep Girl

"I mean, yes, i suppose that's true... But i really can't afford to waste time here. You're not really giving me a choice." He said, with a tinge of guilt. At least it looked like she wasn't really getting hurt by his attacks, just exhausted, but he still felt bad about whacking her around like that... His next strike was less aggressive, just a standard thrust of his rapier.

Vale's thrust was unable to stop the sheep girl from pulling him into a soft hug, her wool encapsulating him like a warm, fluffy cloud. "Just relax, let me take care of everything." She whispered as she pulled him close.

Sheep Girl: 23 Stamina

He hardly struggled. Being in her arms felt so right, so warm... Being held so close and tightly, he could hear the sheep's gentle breathing, relaxing him as he melted into a drowsy puddle in her arms. He was starting to get too sleepy to just push himself away from her, and in this instant, he really didn't want to, holding onto the sheep girl like a tall pillow as he nuzzled his face into her wool. "Just for a bit's fine... Y-Yeah... Just a bit, right..? So soft..."

"That's right. You can stay here as long as you like. Just enjoy my soft wool and rest." She murmured in his ear as she gently rocked the nobleman. Filling him with a feeling of relaxed, drowsy, warmth.

Vale: 19.5 Willpower + Fool's Stance + 4 Sleepy + Bound

He tried desperately to regain control of himself, not wanting to be pampered into submission-- Well, no, he did want that, but he knew he couldn't indulge, and had to snap out of it to fight back.

Vale tried to escape, but he couldn't find the energy to disentangle himself from the sheepgirl. "Shh. Take it easy." She whispered as the barrage of comforting pleasure continued.

Sheep Girl: 23 Stamina

The way she kept whispering to him soothed him, sending shivers down his spine and making his muscles refuse to tense up. Still, he persisted in trying to escape.

Val was able to break free with a swing of his rapier. Earning him a disappointed pout from the sheep girl.

Vale: 18 Willpower + Fool's Stance + 5 Sleepy
Sheep Girl: 21 Stamina

Dizzy from suddenly getting up, Vale stumbled away from the sheep girl, and while taking a few deep breaths at a distance, slapping himself awake a little, he quickly poured a bit more magic in his blade, hoping to go through her wool and to exhaust her by slicing at her energy... After a quick break.

Vale steadied himself as the sheep girl looked at him with big, sad eyes.

Vale: 21 Willpower + Fool's Stance + 5 Sleepy
Sheep Girl: 21 Stamina

"P-Please, there's no need to give me that look." He tried his utmost to ignore the heartwrenching gaze as he focused his swipes into keeping her right where she was, not wanting her wool to affect him any more.

Vale's attack pushed the sheep girl away, causing her puppy dog eyes to grow even larger. She looked like she just might start crying.

Sheep Girl: 20.5 Stamina

Now he just felt bad. Momentarily forgetting what he was doing, Vale carelessly approached her, and hugged the girl to comfort her, the fact that contact with her was a bad idea not occuring to him, too distracted by concern.

(Request: All tucked in)

(All Tucked In -Auto- Success)

The sheep girl returned his hug. Guiding his head to rest in her shoulder as she patted the back of his head. "Thank you. Now just relax and let me return the favor." She whispered softly in his ear. The two enjoyed each other's embrace for a little while. Each moment filling Vale with more and more relaxed comfort. All the while the sheep girl continued to whisper sweetly in his ear.

Vale: 26 Willpower + Starblade Stance + 8 Sleepy
Sheep Girl: 20.5 Stamina

Vale nearly dozed off right here and then, her whispers making him feel as if his whole body was turning into jello, he felt... Safe, warm, and comfortable. Where was he again? What was he doing before this? He was too tired to recall...

"That's it. Just relax and let yourself feel good. I'll take care of anything." The sheep girl whispered as part of her endless stream of comforting murmurs. Causing Vale to sink deeper and deeper into her wonderful wool.

Sheep Girl: 20.5 Stamina

He shook his head, pulling himself together once more, swiftly pulling away- Well, as swiftly as his drowsy form could manage at least. "Ngh... Can't do that. You are a master in the art of the guilt trip... Ooor i'm a fool. Bit of both? Let's say it's a bit of both." Even if he tried playing it cool, he felt the soporific effects of her touch were starting to reach more than his mind, his arms getting weaker, more likely to slip up, though hopefully his stance would help with that.

The sheep girl made no move to dodge. Letting Vale's blade sink into her wool in order to get closer. She continued to look at him with big, soulful eyes that spoke of nothing but a desire to help as she tried to pull him into another comforting hug.

Vale: 26 Willpower + Starblade Stance + 8 Sleepy
Sheep Girl: 18.5 Stamina

He knew she meant no harm, and was only trying to help, if forcefully. He knew that he had urgent business to attend to as well, and that he could kiss those plans goodbye if she lulled him in. He knew he had to fight her off...
But those eyes of hers, more specifically, the kindness in her expression... His arm wavered for a second.

Vale was able to get his wavering sword arm to move. Landing a puncturing blow to the Sheep girl's Mana lines. But his hesitation allowed her to pull him into a soft hug, her soporific wool quickly entangling him. The midara pulled him close and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "There, there. It will all be better after our nap." She whispered in his ear, her wool and soft touch making him sleepier by the second.

Sheep Girl: 18 Stamina + Manableed (0/2)

A muffled, sleepy "Damn..." was all he could manage with his face and most of his body in her wooly cuddle. The kiss he received only made his sleepy predicament worse, the gentle touch of her lips comforting him into letting go even more. He had to leave while he still had enough fight left in him to consider the idea..!

But finding the will to pull away proved difficult as the sheep girl began to gently rock him. A comforting warmth suffusing Vale's entire being. "Just a quick little nap. Just the two of us. Laying in each other's arms. So warm. So comfy." The sheep girl whispered, mostly to herself, her eyes slowly drifting shut as she let out an adorable yawn.

Vale: 21 Willpower + Starblade Stance + 10 Sleepy + Bound
Sheep Girl: 17 Stamina + Manableed (1/2)

Being rocked like that by the soft sheep girl made his eyelids flutter. That was so incredibly comforting, it made him feel as though the sheep could just pick him up and carry him away. For some reason, the gentle movement made him feel... Safe. As if nothing wrong could happen to him as long as he stayed in her arms. He absentmindedly attempted to push away, but there was no real attempt at getting out of her arms, he did so more by instinct. If anything, he almost adjusted himself to cling onto her and nuzzle into her wool and body as much as he could manage.

As Vale nuzzled deeper into her arms the sheep girl have him a warm smile. Happy to see that he was finally letting himself relax. At this point her wool almost completely encased him like the world's most comfortable blanket.

Vale: 18 Willpower + Starblade Stance + 11 Sleepy + Bound
Sheep Girl: 16 Stamina + Manableed (2/2)

Vale had completely forgot about what he wanted to do today at this point. If it weren't for the sheep girl holding him, he'd have fallen to the floor by now, his body all but completely limp at this point. He felt as if he was floating on a soft cloud, with the warm sun shining down on him. The sheep was quite possible the most huggable person in the world, and he was going to indulge now. His breathing steadied, as a great calm washing over him.
