I sent you a request as well...let me check my e-mail.  It said it went through but I sent it again.

Thanks for the info Seggie.  I am glad you are back in full swing.  I look forward to helping wherever I can and I look forward to bigger and better things for the BT.  I am looking forward to the upcoming Inter-div RP's - Fire in the Sky, CotS encounter, and the cleansing.  I would love to see more in the future. 

Ooh things I would like to see:

1) Our Div website updated

2) Some more information or details about the layout and amenities at the "Farm".  It would be nice to have so that we can have some added details and uniformity in our posts

let's do it then.  Go ahead and start the post and I'll fight you ;)

It up in the farm, let me get the link for you.

EDIT:  LINK

just don't get burned.  I don't think we have any healers present.

will do Boss!

Character Name: Geirrin Hale

Rank:Dedicated (Approved for bonding as an Asha'man, in process of completing final Req)

Would you like to hold the bond, be bonded, or are you willing to do either? Either way

If you are bonded, would you be willing to be bonded to an Aes Sedai who holds bonds to other BT Chars? Yes

If you are holding the bond, are you willing to bond more than one Aes Sedai? Yes

Do you have any questions or concerns? If so please state them here or PM them to me.

Most of my concerns are those that Covai mentioned regarding how the bond will work.  Most of it is up to the bondees to discuss and work out but in general will it be a dog and master type relationship.

One concern I do have is housing.  Are we going to have a barracks or dorm at the farm where the bonded Aes Sedai will be housed or will they share rooms with their bonded.  In cases where the BT character is the one bonded where will he be housed when his Aes Sedai is in the White Tower.

If you are interested in taking part in the bonding between the Red Ajah and the BT, please post your BT characters name and your preference if you have any.  Please answer the following questions:

Notes:  At the moment only Asha'man will be allowed to bond.  If you have a Soldier or Dedicated that you are interested in using in the future then please post your interest so we can plan for it.

Please list any questions or concerns so they can be discussed.  Once each side has a list and the details have been agreed by the DL's we can hopefully pair some people up.  Remember the agreement has to be mutual.

I think that is it for now.

I will take on anyone who is willing to do it.  I would just like to get it done.  After that then he only needs his inter-div RP to be raised to Ashie.

Thanks for volunteering, Sieve.   ;D

Ooh I am there, with your approval of course!

How did I miss this thread?  D'OH!

 

Yes I have been speaking with Elgee about the bonding.  As it stands only Asha'man are going to bond.  Once all Asha'man are bonded, then Dedicateds can be bonded.  So far I've given permission to one Dedicated to be bonded first due to circumstances.

 

Remember bonding is only between the BT and the Red Ajah.

 

If you would like to partake on this mission of getting us a list, by all means do so.

Thanks Segurant, will do.

Geirrin listened as the M'Hael addressed them turning rumor into fact.  Men were still joining the masses assembled in front of the M'Hael as his voiced boomed of the din.  Trollocs and Myrddraal were coming out of the Blight and attacking Shienar and Arafel.  He tried to picture their location on the map.  He thought they were part of the Borderlands but he had never been farther North than the farm.  Geirrin's adrenaline was pumping at the thought of facing Trollocs and Myrddraal, Lurks as they were known in Tear. 

As soon as the M'Hael's voice went silent Geirrin was ushered into the Storm Leader's group.  He would be part of the main assault group.  He prayed to the creator that he would make it back, this was not sailing into a storm.  This was sailing into a storm with no rudder and a bilge filled with water.  He prayed to the creator that they could push back the Shadow, he prayed that at least some of them would return.  How many Trollocs?  How many Lurks?  How many could they send?  Geirrin began to think of the weaves he would use.  He would have to be efficient so as not to sap all of his strength and endurance early on though he could not be too sparing or the resrve would do him no good.

When sleep finally took him he slept like a hibernating bear.  His dreams were of her and what the had done.  He could not say how many times or how long they had been at it but he would not have been shocked to find that the sun was up.  When he woke her head was resting on his chest.  "Good Morning" she whispered in that sweet musical voice.  Her whisper sent a tingle through his body and he recalled the previous night.  He could never have imagined how wonderful last night would be.  He had dreamt about it but never in his wildest dreams could he have imagined how amazing it was to finally be with her.  When she buried her face in his neck he felt the weight of her body pressing against his igniting the fire again.  If she did not get up at that very moment to begin dressing he thought that he would not let her leave the bed until they were both breathless again.

Perivar watched her as she dressed.  He was not being rude but her took great pleasure in studying her body.  He studied every inch tucking away every detail.  "You are beautiful Kabria."  He said smiling "There is nothing in this world more beautiful than you."  He wanted to ask if she had any regrets about last night but he did not have to ask.  She would not have have stayed the night or enticed him as often as she had if she regretted it.  He certainly had no regrets, it was better than he had expected.

Perivar stood unclothed as the day he was born.  He had no inhibitions about being naked so he went to the wash stand.  Grabbing the bar of yellow soap, he quickly washed his body as best he could then scrubbed his teeth with salt.  He dressed then smiled at Kabria as he walked from the bedchamber into the study.  He spotted what he was looking for next to the door to the balcony.  Just inside the door was a tray filled with food, more than enough for two.  "Imagine that, Kabria there is food here and believe it or not there is enough for two."  He gave her a guilty smile as she came into the study. 

Lifting the linen from the tray he found it filled with honeycakes, oatcakes, mulled wine, mulled cider, hot tea, all manner of pastries, oatmeal, and loads of fresh fruit.  As she approached the tray he took her in his arms kissing her neck and nibbling on her ear.  He whispered softly in her ear "Last night was magical, thank you Kabria.  I love you!" then he stepped away from her to let her eat.  He took a mug from the tray.  "What would you like to drink?"  Did I tell you that below us is a book store?  This is a personal collection though what lies beneath us is for sale.  Perhaps we can browse the store's shelves before you have to return?  Maybe you will find something of interest there."     

<--- Is not opposed to Coed dorms, actually is in favor of it.  ;)

Perivar smiled when Selene returned, his hands still tucked behind his back.  His attention was on Selene as she spoke while rubbing down NightDancer and picking out stray pieces of straw.  He nodded "Yes he did, Jasine is very knowledgeable and skilled when it comes to horses.  I know he loves to work with horses but I was very fortunate that he agreed to train him.  NightDancer is fully trained now and I couldn't be happier with him.  Rao is a beautiful horse Selene, I know Jasine spent a lot of time with her."  The poor girl probably did not get to spend much time with her horse, if at all.  He couldn't remember seeing any of the novices excersizing their mounts.

He watched as Carina returned with the tack.  Selene put the bridle on while Carina took care of the saddle.  Selene could not take the suspense any longer knowing that Perivar was hiding something.  She rose up on tiptoes trying to see behind him.  "What's that you've got there, Guardsman Perivar?"

"It is just Perivar"  Growing up he had enough of people bowing and scraping around him.  He had left all that behind and he was happy about it.  "Well I doubted that either of you would take the coin that I usually give to the boys so I have something else for you."  Perivar pulled a beautiful white flower from behind his back handing it to her.  "I would have put it in your hair but I don't want you to get in trouble if an Aes Sedai decided to check on you."  With that he took his right hand from behind his back handing Carina a deep blueish-purple flower that seemed to almost match her eyes.  "Thank you both for seeing to NightDancer."

Perivar thought of jumping in the saddle though for some reason he was feeling talkative.  He new very little about novices since Kabria didn't like to talk about it so who better to ask than two novices.  "So what is it like being a novice, I mean what is your typical day or week like?  If you don't mind talking about it of course.  If you don't then I understand."

Perivar Tarigan

Tower Guard

dude, Daisho is the path to go.... seroiusly

Perivar is ready...

the more cooks the more mess, this is why we have staff

That is one school of thought and is why I said no more than 2 or 3.  Are members of a Division supposed to refrain from offering to help or offer input where it may be warranted?  Some staff members are busy and may not have enough time on their hands to devote to certain projects.  This matter has been on the table for a while and has yet to be resolved.  As an active member of the Division I don't want to see it fall by the wayside.  Maybe I am out of line...

Perivar had already voiced his questions and offered his opinions.  Now he sat NightDancer listening as Loraine, Kabria, and Kynwric spoke.  He watched Kabria with an obvious look of admiration mixed with grim determination, she was everything to him.  Beautiful, passionate, intelligent, and she had the heart of lioness.  On top of all of that she was his and he considered himself the luckiest man in the world.

Perivar had never been patient and right now he was itching to go but it did no good to be hasty.  He formed the flame pushing all the emotions into it bringing on the void.  Emotions were distant, feelings dancing on the outside though he was barely aware of them.  He smiled at Kabria when she asked if he was hurt or fatigued.  "I am fine my love."  He said touching her hand and he didn't care who saw or heard.  Who knew what was going to happen.  Things could go smoothly or they could not.  "The Wheel weaves as it wills.  The dancing is sweeter on the edge of a sword."  The latter was a saying that he heard often as a child.

"I spent my life in palaces and on a ship"  "That is why you packed like you are going to be away for a month instead of a few days."  He laughed out loud then touched her arm.  "You have to weigh how necessary something is to you when you pack.  Obviously food, water, and proper clothing are necessary.  You can light your own fire so you don't have to worry about that.  You have to think ahead and decide if our task allows us to take a pack horse along.  If so then you are able to be a little more free with your packing though it is best to keep the most important items with you on or about your own mount.  If we have to lose the packhorse then we don't have to worry about losing important supplies.  Sometimes we maay only be able to pack light so you will have to get used to roughing it."  He smiled at her so that she kept her temper tamped down. 

Perivar watched as she picked the camp.  “We will camp here” She announced confidently, not bad he thought to himself.  It had good cover and as they stopped he was able to hear the sound of running water in the distance.  "Another thing Kabria, you can use the power as much as you wish but tomorrow it will not be so.  There are places and situations where you may not be able to channel so you cannot rely on it all the time.  Almost as an afterthought he spoke "Ooh, you get to cook tonight my love.  After we eat I will show you how to make a shelter and set the snares."  He began to care for the horses waiting for her to erupt over having to cook.

Perivar looked into her eyes as she spoke.  Her fingers touching his left hand sent a tingle through his body.  Even after all this time it still happened everytime she touched him.  He looked at his left hand wondering what finger.  He knew it would go on his left if they were married but could he still wear it there if they were not?    They were married to the Tower, married to their cause.  Would there be room in their future for marriage.  Some Greens married but would they?  In all reality they may as well have been though she had said that their cause came first,  their love a close second.

She pointed to the third finger on her left hand told him what it would mean for him to wear it there.  No doubt her wishes would be honored.  He was sworn to her in more ways than one.  He wanted her to know that he was hers unconditionally, he wanted to tell the world yet that could not be, not yet if ever.  She flicked one of his braids and he smiled in response.  She did have quite a temper.  He recalled the first time when they met and she had threatened to cut it off then.  In those brief moments he would never have guessed that by the end of the day he would have sworn her oaths that would tie him to her for as long as she wished.

His decision had been made a while ago, as soon as she said where she would like him to wear it.  He slipped it on the third finger of his left hand.  It seemed to fit perfectly.  He locked eyes with her smiling appreciatively.  "Thank you, I meant what I said.  This means a lot more to me than you could imagine."

Perivar wrapped his arms around her pulling her close to him.  "I will help you pack your things as soon as I have had a few more kisses from you."  With that he leaned in kissing her neck as he ran his fingers through he pale blonde hair.  From her neck he went to her lips.  When they separated he was near breathless again.  Her kisses had a way of doing that to him.  His whole body tingle, the blood coursing through his veins.  If he didn't stop there then they would never complete her training.  He wished they could skip it but he knew they could not, not now.  Reluctantly he stood then helped her up before helping her pack her belongings.

"Alright I will let you keep all of your belongings but you still have to learn how to live without them.  Once we are packed you will find a suitable camp.  Shelter and water are priorities.  Tonight you will have all the supplies that you packed available to you.  Tomorrow night is a different story."  When everything was packed and they were mounted he spoke "Now it is time to find a suitable camp.  You take the lead."

 

I'm surprised Seggy hasn't responded - last I've heard, himself and Elgee were discussing this :)

Yeah I heard a rumor there was a discussion though there were still some details to iron out.  I am willing to help iron them out if Seggy is too busy.  Might as well put my availability to use if it is needed/wanted.

or not  :P

;D

Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? Anyone?  *crickets*

*glares at Sieve* We have one of the youngest teams in the NFL! We are rebuilding. *fails to mention that we have been doing so since the 80's*

The Dolphins are not any better.  They have been rebuilding since Marino left though it was only recently that they actually admitted it.

 

7% if you live; otherwise, it'll be a 2% death payout to the Black Tower as stipulated in this contract.  *forks over a hefty tome covered in seals and ribbons*.

 

:D

;D

 

PEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANUTS, get your fresh-hot peanuts here!  Popcorn and beer, pretzels!

 

...

 

What?  Might as well turn a profit on this show, right? ;)

You make me smile!  ;D

*whispers* What's my cut?
