Meet the Family

[Elpsis Kerrigan]

Elpsis had never studied at a university. Truth be told, she had not even finished high school. Interacting with academics and scholars always made her feel a little awkward. "For the bride...I guess," she furrowed her brow slightly. "Mostly for Tempest. Nice to meet ya. My name's Elpsis," she gave the older lady her best smile. Elpsis had a preference for older wine. "So...what stuff do you teach?" The fish smelt pleasant, but looked...strange. Nonetheless, Elpsis cut herself a piece and swallowed it, washing it down with some juice. She was hungry enough.

“Chemistry,” Sagacity replied. “To be honest I’m only here because the groom’s family is a major patron of the university, I can’t stand him personally. Yet, here I am to show the flag, and a nice meal with fine wine is not the worst way to spend the day…especially in the company of such a lovely young lady as yourself.”
Oh dear, the Professor was probably of Elpsis’ type too.

To be fair, Tempest was busy chatting up her own possible conquest from the girl beside her, a local militia officer.

Dimly, Elpsis could hear Tempest chatting up another girl. Moreover, she felt the lust-filled vibes through the Force. She also didn't care. Tell me all about it if you bed her, was the only thing she had to say to Tempest on the matter via the telepathic mobile phone. The Dahomian could sleep with as many women as she wanted and Elpsis wouldn't mind.


After all, the empath did the same. Open relationships were the best - when both partners were open about sleeping around and didn't pretend to be something else. Elpsis was many things, but she was honest and remarkably free of jealousy.


"Aww. You're sweet and just as lovely as your aura," she gushed to the Professor, who was old enough to be her mother. Elpsis had a weakness for hot older women. A psychologist would probably call it a result of deep-seated mummy issues. The redhead would simply say she liked women of experience who knew what they were doing.


"Not keen on the groom either, to be honest. Or the bride. But spending time with a beautiful lady makes it a lot better," she flashed the woman her best smile. "I, uh, never went to university. Or finished school," she admitted a bit bashfully. "Maybe you could, like, help me brush on my educaton a bit." Meanwhile, she placed her hand on the Professor's thigh,

If Sagacity was surprised by the forwardness of the redhead, she didn’t show it. Instead she slid a hand gently onto Elpsis’ back.
“I would be happy to provide a…tutorial…for you, dear. I think once this reception is done we could go to my hotel? I don’t live in Abomey so I have a room in the city.”

Tempest meanwhile seemed to be close to clinching the deal, as it were, with her new paramour. Perhaps the younger woman was looking for some ‘tactical mentoring’, or perhaps just a good word in the ear of someone important.

Feeling the touch on her back, Elpsis smiled. "That sounds great. I'd love to learn more. I'm a very attentive pupil," she agreed. She sounded eager. Her voice had risen a few octaves, becoming more high-pitched. Like that of a young student eager to please her teacher. Elpsis had had many, many partners and was quite fine with playing to their desires. "I just need to catch up a bit and get some help focusing." She squeezed the older woman's thigh fondly.

“Oh, I think you’ll find I’m very good at keeping your…attention.”

Meanwhile, the wedding was winding down. The bride and groom went off to a waiting speeder, and people started to disperse. There was cake though if anyone wanted a slice. Said slice though was a pretty tiny slither. Disappointing.

Tempest came back after that to find Elpsis. “This is Duty, I’m going to go give her some martial training. Meet for breakfast tomorrow?”

"Martial, huh? I'm sure you'll put her through her paces," Elpsis said jovially. "I know what a hardarse you are," as if to empathise the point, she groped Tempest's butt. She was fond of grabbing it. Or sticking her tongue into it. She wrapped her arm around Tempest's waist and gave Duty a smile. Her patended 'yeah, this is my girl and I'm totally ok with you shagging' smile. "Tempest is a very demanding taskmistress. But she'll get you all trained up and improve your command and control," she declared, then gave Tempest a kiss. "See ya tomorrow, babe. Tell me all about the training. Sagacity's been so kind to fill some gaps in my education."

If either Duty or Sagacity were puzzled by the seemingly blasé relationship between Elpsis and Tempest, they didn’t show it. Perhaps Abomey had a lot of swingers, or perhaps the two of them were just unworried by open relationships.

Regardless, doubtless certain activities ensued which could not possibly be related for fear of damaging the kiddys. This one directs attention to the Omega fleet battle where over a million were slain for an example of more wholesome entertainment.

Regardless, the next morning Duty was given a kiss, a letter of recommendation and ushered out the door before Elpsis made her return for breakfast.

Tempest was in a pretty good mood. “Morning! How’d you go with your professor lady?”

Suffice to say Elpsis left Sagacity's hotel room with good marks. The older woman had been a very demanding teacher, but knew how to bring out the best in her pupils. And leave them craving more discipline and submission from her. So Elpsis was in a very good mood.


"It was great. We played professor and naughty schoolgirl. She tested me very thoroughly. But I got good grades!" Elpsis declared brightly, uncaring about who might her here. She gave Tempest a hug and a kiss, then pointed to a bag she'd been carrying. "I got a nice outfit. If you're a good girl, I might wear it from you," she smirked. Said outfit was of the slutty schoolgirl variety. "How did Duty work out? Did she satisfy you well?"


If this had been someone other than Elpsis, this might have been a trick question along the lines of 'but I'm still better than her'. But she was being genuinely free of guile or hidden motivations. She simply did not get jealous about her girlfriend having paramours other than her.

“Oh yes, she did her duty,” Tempest said with a smirk. It was the only joke to be made. She was allowed to make them after all!

“I’m glad you had a good time! Naturally, she couldn’t be as good as you, but it’s always good to try new experiences.”
A little bit of flattery worked wonders even if Elpsis wasn’t seeking it directly.

“So, anything you want to do on Dahomey whilst we’re here?”

"Sweettalker," Elpsis grinned and gave Tempest a kiss. All things considered, she was not high maintenance, though she had a short attention span. Unlike Siobhan, she didn't need to have the last word in everything or get her ego stroked a lot. However, she liked a lot of affection and some flattery here and there.


"I'd like to go out and see the wilderness a bit. Didn't get much of a chance to appreciate it last time. Maybe Purity can come?" the empath suggested.

[member="Elpsis Kerrigan-Alcori"]
“A safari? Sure! I know some great places to go. I can ask, but I don’t think Purity is an outdoors type. Much more comfortable hidden away from the outdoors in the airconditioning with her computers.” Tempest clearly didn’t approve of such an attitude.

Tempest stretched and started laying out some clothes. “If we go out to the real outdoors, it’ll be a bit rough, so keep your weapons close by. You don’t want a Cylix landing on you.”

"And if she wasn't hidden away from the outdors in the airconditioning with her computers, she wouldn't know as much as she does about computers and tech stuff. You said she's a bit of a whiz. You're the outdoorsy, muscular amazonian type, she's the indoorsy, techy type. We all got our strengths," there was a clear note of reproach in her tone, though Elpsis kept it gentle.


Unlike most of this one's characters, she was actually a nice person instead of a narcissist, a nihilistic cyborg or a popsicle. "Speaking of Cylixes, can I adopt another one, love? Leo is a lil alone," she spoke in a brighter tone to lighten the mood a bit. Regardless, she stretched a bit and then got up to pick out her clothes. Given Elpsis' colour-blindedness, her outfit would probably end up being a bit mismatched.

Tempest noted the reproach and accepted it. Elpsis wasn’t wrong after all, people specialised in different areas.
“Well sure, but people should try to do a bit of both,” she muttered.

She was quickly diverted by Elpsis’ next comments. She frowned. “Uhh, might be a little tricky to transport a while Cylix back home. Probably best we don’t,” she added, though nuzzled close to Elpsis.

“I’ll give Purity a call and see if you’d like.”

"But they're so cute," Elpsis snarked a bit, then furrowed her brow. "But ok. It would be a bit mean if I separated a lion from its pride." To be fair, she'd done that with Leo, but he'd been driven rabid by Virtue's dark magic. "Sure call Purity. She may surprise you if I you give her the chance! I promise not to hit on her." She would probably embarrass the poor dear by flirting with Tempest a lot though.

Whilst Tempest went to give her cousin a call, Elpsis was left on her own. Not for long though.

There was a knock at the door, and when opened a pretty young maid was there.
“Good morning, ma’am! I was going to clean your room but I can come back later. However, you did purchase the upgraded maid service if you’re interested in some personal attention,” she said with a wink.

Clearly this hotel wasn’t lying about having ‘companions’ available, apparently ones who moonlighted as housekeeping staff!

Elpsis was just putting her new outfit away when she heard the knock. The outfit in question could be best described as a slutty schoolgirl uniform that left preciously little to the imagination. Well, nothing really. If Elpsis was ever put in charge of a city, it would probably end up the most oversexed place imaginable. On the bright side, there'd be plenty of green and clean air because she was big on nature. So maybe kind of like a matriarchal, free love hippie commune? Populated by hippies who understood the need for personal hygiene and were ok with guns.


"Oh, hello, beautiful," she exclaimed when she saw the gourgeous maid. A broad grin spread over her face. It did not matter that she'd just spent the night having lots of passionate, sweaty sex. A pretty lady was offering and she was turned on. "Y'know, I think you're exactly the kind of personal attention I need. Come in, babe," gently she took the maid's hands and led her inside. "What's your name?"

 

[Tempest]

[member="Elpsis Kerrigan-Alcori"]
The maid willingly followed, closing the door behind her. “I’m Loyalty, ma’am,” she said with a grin. The good thing about Dahomian names was that it was hard to tell if it was real or not.

Tempest meanwhile came back in. “She says that sounds great, she’ll meet us at…” Tempest said coming back in. She looked at the maid, eyebrow raised. “Maid service huh? I’ll tell Purity an hour longer.”
She seemed perfectly okay with the fact there was another woman in the room clearly offering intimate attention.

And so the dark curtain of PG-13 descended once more until they could finally go and meet dear Purity.

And so after an hour of enjoying the maiden's loyal services, the two lovebirds finally met up with Purity. However, when they arrived the Dahomian looked more than a little cross. "Hey, there you are!" she declared, huffing. She looked rather put out, though she'd had a good book to keep herself busy.

"Hey you!" proving that she was not the sharpest blade in the Order, Elpsis did not immediately put two and two together. "Glad you could make it."

"I've been waiting for you for an hour! Would it have killed you to call!"

"Uh, sorry...didn't Tempest call you?" Elpsis asked lamely.

 

[Tempest]

[member="Elpsis Kerrigan-Alcori"]
Tempest looked from the irritated Purity, to Elpsis, then down to her communicator.
“Oh damnit,” she said. “I’m so sorry, Purity! I meant to call you when we got held up. We had some unexpected issues come up.”
A maid in a cute outfit for a start. She blushed and coughed.

“Well…alright, but I’ve been sitting here over an hour! We’re going to be late now for the safari start!”
