[Sinkah-Ra Osiris]

Nefti's hooved thundered against the slick sands beneath him, loyally running anywhere his mistress' guiding hand pointed him. For her, he would run over broken vases, through fiery lakes, through horse-eating-fish waters. She fed him well, she cared for him well; thus, he'd serve her twice as well. His mane and tail got brushed every day, with the finest of boar's hair brushes. He was well loved, and in his youth, he'd serve her until his hooves were soft and splitting with age, until his knees would refuse to bend with the stone disease, until his eyes weren't letting the light and sights around them. If he were human, he would woo her, he would wed her. But, such things weren't to be, as he was merely the horse who carried her across the sands.

"Whoo-oa boy, slooow." her soft voice spoke out. He slipped down to a soft walk, and stopped as she tugged back on his reigns. Some humans thought she was cruel; they simply didn't know her heart. He'd gotten his share of whips and sharp-shod heels dug into his skin; but, she was hard-skinned, in a, inner sense. She had to be as a lone woman, with naught but a pale horse to protect her. That, and that tail of hers....

Nefti glanced up and about him as he spotted a tasty-smelling plant nearby; the place he'd been led to take her looked like a contained lake, like the ones the humans lay in. But, he hadn't seen any humans bathing at night.

Sinkah kicked off her sandals, glancing around her carefully. Sure, the Isisian people weren't dangerous, but you never knew whom might be lurking around the corner. She only ever dares to bathe alone at night, and hadn't done so in Isis' spring in months. Nefti was busy munching on a rosemary bush, that had wormed it's way up through the cobblestone. He'd warn her if anyone was coming.

Feeling safe enough, she discarded the half-sided robe she'd gotten from southern Africa, which a store had gotten in a trade from the west. Her tail curled around her waist like a belt, the thin, long steel whip-like scorpion tail would, at first glance, most likely be taken as a belt of some kind, one she'd forgotten to take off. She slipped her foot into the hot waters, and after a second, brought the other in. She waded not too far, and sat herself at the nearby deeper section, back against the wall. The water covered just above her nipples, the creamy white liquids invented by the great Cleopatra washed over her skin.

She loved the water; it was better than any luxury this side of a massage. She had just relaxed enough to close her eyes, when Nefti's soft chatter alerted her senses. He smelled someone. Sinkah's glance roamed around, looking for whomever he spotted. Cautiously, she unwrapped her tail, but kept it under the murky water, just in case...

[Isper Skoro]

He hadn't arrived long ago, mainly because he had been taking his time while traveling. There wasn't any hurry. Isper had all the time in the world and then some. When Isper had been sent down to earth he had been dropped in the most convenient location. Greece, where the veil between his gods and family was the thinnest. At the time, he hadn't had a "mission" and so had stayed for a while, before growing bored and wandering north for a little ways. It was only then that he had been visited by Apollo, who had commanded him to travel south to keep an eye on other gods. The journey hadn't been terribly long, and he had been able to cross the sea that divided Greece and Egypt rather quickly, thanks to some aid from the limited abilities that he still had after being sent to Earth, but that didn't mean that he couldn't take his time. Traveling over land was much slower anyways. Especially since he had yet to acquire a horse and so was walking by foot, not that it mattered. He could take as much time as he wanted.

Now, he was lying on some grasses for the night a short distance away from the water basin. He had yet to actually use the water basin. It wasn't that the warm water hadn't looked inviting, and it wasn't that he didn't need it. He did need it, he was covered in sand and dirt from his traveling, especially by foot. But when he had arrived there all Isper had wanted to do was lie down for a while. That's when Scorpio had fallen asleep. He wasn't sure how long he had slept, but something had woken him up. He was a fairly light sleeper, and be it a noise, or something else that had given a slight tug at his senses, something had woken him up.

He didn't open his eyes right away, being reluctant to wake up even though he was already conscious. Finally though, he did open his eyes, slowly. Isper's sapphire eyes flickered around in the dark from his position on the ground. The first thing he saw was the stars. They were whispering to him, mocking him, and that only made his temper flare. Scorpio had thought that when he was on earth in a human body that he wouldn't have to listen to the other signs any more, but not even that benefit was available. Irritated, Scorpius turned his gaze away from the sky to peer through the tall grasses that somewhat concealed him in the darkness. There was movement, possibly a person. Finally, with an inward sigh he sat up slowly, not wanting to alarm who ever it was that had arrived. He just wasn't in the mood for much commotion at the moment.

Scorpio took in the scene before him. There was a woman in the water and her horse, a rather nervous looking creature, was standing near by. A soft sigh fell passed his lips as he then looked down at himself. He hadn't changed since leaving Greece, and was wearing once-white robes, with a maroon colored cloak to shelter him when he was traveling. For the moment, he was in his fully human state, the only hints towards who he really was being his eyes, and the red plating on his left shoulder blade that ran down his spine. Finally, as he ran his fingers back through his black hair, Isper stood up, making himself known to the woman in the water and her horse. "You interrupted my sleep," he mumbled, though he wasn't sure if he had said it loud enough for her to even hear him. His blue eyes roamed over the woman, immidiately feeling something . . different about her, possibly familiar. He decided to brush that feeling away for the moment.

"Do you mind if I join you?" he asked as he walked to the edge of the water basin opposite of her. He didn't bother to wait for a reply before pulling off his worn sandals and stripping of his Greek-styled robes. Isper slipped into the warm water, enjoying the feeling of its warmth caressing his flesh. "What is your name?" he asked, not bothering with any small talk, or even giving his own name before asking.

[Sinkah-Ra Osiris]

Sinkah perked a brow as the rather forward male invited himself in to bathe with her. He wasn't Egyptian, that much was obvious by his skin; beautifully pale, compared to the skin of the field workers. At least by a few shades. Her own was almost frightfully pale, but in these days, pale skin was prized, and looked upon like a distinguishing feature of the attractive.

"Well, most people sleep far from here in their homes. Either you're homeless, your wife threw you out of her abode, or you were sleeping outside. That would not bode well for you, especially if an Osirian spotted you, or one of his undead...Perhaps the undead-dogs will come and devour your face as you sleep beneath the glowing stars?" she replied, letting her tail relax once again. If Nefti wasn't panicking, this male wasn't a threat. If he became so, then, he wouldn't know what hit him.

"My name? What bold manners behold you. First, you enter the pool of a bathing woman; then, you beg me my name. Obviously, in this instance, my tales do not precede me. It is a welcome, but curious happening." Sinkah leaned forward, and regardless to her absence of modesty, she stood up, revealing her long, steel tail, which she held swishing back and forth, as if to try and scare him. She honestly didn't get the point of shyness while nude; it was merely a lack of fur.

"I am she of Osiris, the scorpion half-goddess, Sinkah-Ra." she spoke, trying to sound impressive. "Bow before my glory, and worship at my feet."

[Isper Skoro]

Isper leaned back, relaxing a bit more as she replied to his previous comment. The corners of his mouth quirked up slightly, forming a small smirk as she described what might happen if he was caught by an Osirian--was that just what the natives were called?--or if an un-dead dog found him. "I'm not worried," he murmured somewhat absently. It would be a disappointment if he had his face eaten off, but he couldn't die, and he wouldn't be on Earth forever. He didn't plan on doing all that much anyways while in the mortal realm. At first, she didn't say her name, but instead stated the obvious. He was bold. He didn't like small talk or dancing around topics before getting to the point. Isper found all that to be a waist of time, and an annoyance.

"I am not homeless, nor do I have a wife. I am merely . ." he paused, thinking of how he might explain the situation simply. " . . Traveling."

His blue eyes briefly glanced downwards as she leaned forward, before the returned to meet her own. It was then that she stood up, giving no thought to modesty. Isper remained seated for the moment, as he took in her image, including the metal tail that curled behind her. His eyebrow formed a delicate arch. Interesting, but not threatening as it was meant to be . . at least, not to him. His gaze roamed up her body, before finally catching her eyes again. She then gave her name, announcing that she was some half-goddess. He had never heard of her. Along with that it took him a few moments to even remember who Osiris was. Apollo had explained who the gods were that he was to keep an eye on, but he didn't remember all of them.

"Bow before my glory, and worship at my feet."

It was then that Isper couldn't hold back any longer. An amused snort escaped him and he covered his mouth with his fist as he started laughing. His laughing continued for a few seconds longer before it finally ceased and he looked at her again. With a sigh, he stood up to face her, a smirk curling across his lips. "I have not ever heard of you, Sinkah-Ra," he said, not able to help mocking her "superior" tone. He stood before her, unmoving as he pulled his sign form to the surface. The stars that were in the back of his pupils seemed to flash as a red scorpion's tail curled behind him, red patches of plating formed in seemingly random places on his skin, and he grew taller. His entire form almost seemed to emit a dim glow, though it was difficult to say.

"I am Isper Skoro, better known as Scorpio or Scorpius," he said, before reaching out and letting his fingers push her face upwards towards the sky and turn it in the direction that his constellation was supposed to see. Isper pointed in the direction that he had turned her head. "My stars were over there, but no longer. I have fallen from the sky, and am commanded to watch over the gods of this land . . . keep them from getting out of hand." He folded his arms as he sat down again, remaining in his star form. "Who should worship at who's feet?"

[Sinkah-Ra Osiris]

"No wife? What's the matter with you, then?" it was a strange thought that any man of his features had not secured a wife nor children. He was at least 20, and any attractive male at 20 was always snapped up by the other females. He had to have some glaring flaw she wasn't seeing.

Sinkah's mouth dropped open slightly as he laughed at her. The gaul of such a young, ignorant outsider struck her in a way that had caught her attention. She crossed her arms over her chest, glancing about his male form. It took quite a lot of guts to speak to her like that, especially when faced with the threat of her tail.

Sinkah blinked a few times as his form started to shift it's shape, confused as to what was happening. He was no god; at least not one she knew of, and certainly transforming as such would suggest it. She glanced over her shoulder to Netfi, whom was staring at this Isper being. He wasn't whinnying, nor was he doing his usual threat dance; perhaps this tri-named man was just copying her own tail, like some sort of Apep magic.

Her eyes thinned as he questioned her godessness, and indicated he should be the one to be worshipped. How dare he!? She nearly nipped at his finger, which forced her head to the sky. She took note of the blackened stars; she didn't notice until now that they'd been missing from the scrolls of the stars that told they should be there.

Sinkah aimlessly fired some of the acid from her tail, and glanced to it as it struck a patch of grass nearby. The grass hissed and burned away, sizzling past it's roots into the ground below. "I possess the liquid wrath of a thousand summer suns; and you hold me at a compromising position." she spoke, a light threat in her tone. She glanced over her shoulder at him, her tail poised dangerously close to his thighs. "If it does that to the grass, think of what it would do within your flesh."

[Isper Skoro]

Isper watched her as she seemed to grow angry because of what he had explained, but he remained cool, and calm, almost aloof. Actually, at seeing how much the truth had stirred her up Scorpio found himself even more amused. His guess was that it wasn't the fact that he had said he was also somewhat a god that made her unhappy, but at how he had said it, and then of course his last statement for sure had made her unhappy. That didn't matter though. He didn't care. She could be angry if she wanted to, but that wouldn't change anything. When the poison shot from her tail and landed on the grass, he glanced at the burned spot on the ground nonchalantly. He briefly wondered if poison would hurt his human body. Isper hadn't tried that out yet. All he knew was that he couldn't die. Even if he got his head chopped off the other Zodiac would have to restore him, or let him come back home.

"I posses the liquid wrath of a thousand summer suns, and you hold me ata compromising position."

Scorpio was about to tell her that what she had said was impossible, but then decided against it. She wouldn't know. She wouldn't know that if her tail was really as strong as she said then it was likely that the whole earth wouldn't even still be there. No one would know that but the gods, the fully blooded gods that had been to the heavens before, and then the other constellations that he lived with. He pursed his lips slightly at her next statement as he "thought" about what might happen if the poison was within him. He had no idea what would happen, so he gave a lazy shrug. "I know not what would happen, only that I would not die," he answered casually. Despite that he had no idea what would happen if she actually did decide to spit her venom at him and how dangerously close her tail was, Isper remained un-phased. If she decided to turn nasty, then he could do the same back. It wasn't as if his own venom wasn't deadly. It didn't burn holes in the ground, but one sting worked fast, and could kill a person with in seconds.

All of this was just amusing. She was talking to Scorpio, and was actually threatening him with her own venom. But then, she didn't know who he was, just like he didn't know who she was. She didn't know his gods just like he didn't know hers. The only problem for him was that he was in her lands, where it wasn't necessary to know his own gods. Scorpius' own dark red tail curled closer, over his shoulder, so that if she did try to burn him with her poison, then she would at least get a taste of his as well before he went down--or didn't, depending on what his body's reaction would be. His head tilted to the side slightly as his sapphire eyes took in her form once again.

"You do not believe me when I say that I'm part god, like yourself?" he started, perking a brow. "Are you ignorant enough to believe that the gods that watch over these lands are the only ones that exist? I come from the heavens, but the people north, across the sea, worship different gods than you, the gods that I owe my allegiance to." He stood up again with a sigh, so that he could meet her gaze easier, although in his sign form he was now quite a bit taller than her. Suddenly his mind switched gears and a different question popped into his mind as he remembered what she had said before about him not being married.

"Are you married, then?" he asked, the smirk still on his lips. She looked just as old as he looked, a couple years older, and she was plenty attractive. If it was so unheard of that he was unmarried, then he guessed that she would have to be married.

[Sinkah-Ra Osiris]

"Half-Goddesses and goddesses are only permitted to marry those of like blood to keep it pure. Around here, that's family, and I have none save my father, and I have no interest in the flesh of my father. He doesn't even know I exist, nor I know of any siblings half-blooded as I." she explained, letting her tail droop harmlessly at her calves. She had bad aim when she couldn't see, and his tail as it seemed was far too close to her to risk the strike. She was brave, not stupid. "He to claim my hand would have to be a real half god and satisfy the staring eye of my father, whom does not know I even exist. Such a man willing to confront Osiris about my hand and tell him of my life and prove said existence of me to him...does not exist."

Sinkah turned herself around, wrapping her tail around her waist. "My mother died in labor, and I was cast upon the hands of the Osirian Temple. There is no proof that I am who I claim, aside my inhuman tail, and second name, granted to me by the Temple Priest. I am afraid I am doomed to remain a scorpion maiden."

Sinkah made no comment on his claim to immortality, or which sounded like it. She'd find a way to test that, in time.

[Isper Skoro]

She wasn't married. Somehow, he had already known that. Her mannerisms, along with other things, had just seemed like she was unmarried. He supposed he could understand what she was saying, but the same rules did not apply to him. While he was on earth he could do almost anything he wanted, but die, and now, after being commanded by Apollo to come to Egypt, he had to stay in these lands until he asked permission to leave. He didn't know when his "mission" here would be over though. It didn't matter. Isper had no intentions of getting married to anyone on earth anyways. He hadn't been expecting to meet any half goddesses, but he still didn't plan on marrying anyone while he was here, be them a goddess or a mortal. At seeing her tail droop, he let his own fall back slightly and then disappear, as he changed back to his fully human state. Although, still tall, Isper's height decreased slightly, the red plating on his skin vanished until only the plating that ran down his spine remained. When the transformation was complete he sat down again and leaned back against the rock.

"If no one believes that you are a half goddess, then does that not mean that that 'rule' that you were talking about does not apply?" he asked curiously. "If no one believes that you are part goddess, then who is to enforce that rule upon you?" For the moment, he would ignore what she had said about "real half gods". She would take convincing, but he wasn't in the mood to do it right then. In a way, he guessed that he wasn't really a "half-god" anyways. It wasn't as if he was half god and half mortal, like many others that he had watched over, but had been created by gods, as almost a god. He had threads of god in him, but the rest of him, although not god, was celestial. As he thought about it, Scorpio found that the whole thing was confusing, difficult to understand, and would be even more difficult to explain. Best to leave that part until later.

"That concerns marriage but it is then 'legal' to just have an affair with a mortal? If that weren't true than half deities would not exist . . . that's like an oxymoron," he said, mumbling the last part quietly. He flashed a smile suddenly. "What would it take to convince you that I am part god, mistress scorpion maiden?" he asked, using what she had called herself before, looking up to meet her gaze.

[Sinkah-Ra Osiris]

"I suppose affairs are simply fine if you're a follower of Min," she smirked, tilting her head. "But if Osiris ever learns of my blood, and the man whom has an affair with a half-goddess and the male is not of his standards, he will be put to death, and the woman punished. Likely sold off as a slave to the highest bidder. I'd end up as a whore for Min, and you slain, or if you cannot be slain as you claim, be sent to Min to pleasure the women. Or, as the west puts it, 'shotgun wedding' for the twain..."

Sinkah knew (or, thought) exactly what Isper was trying to peck at. After all, if he was Greek, he might have traditions to bear to. For all she knew, maybe he was forbidden to wed before an older age. Even if he wanted her hand, he wouldn't get it. She wasn't one to be tied down by any man.

"I suppose the risk of getting caught only adds to the tension, and I myself have a few people who believe me..." sure, they were eccentrics; but it was still true. "No, it's not illegal, unless the woman is unmarried. The Minians have sex at the temple gates to glorify him and often have orgies, so a mere affair is nothing to sniff at. Unless she's married."

[Isper Skoro]

"I suppose affairs are simply fine if you're a follower of Min,"

Isper's head tilted to the side slightly as he tried to remember the name. It was one of the gods, he guessed. He sat, as she described what would happen if her father ever found out that she had had an affair, but still seemed as calm as ever. The consequences didn't seem good, but if everyone rejected her and she had no proof other than her tail that she was a half goddess, then how would Osiris ever find out? He shrugged inwardly. It wasn't his problem. "Why do you mention me in this 'punishment?'" he asked, when she, mentioned the fact about him not being able to be slain. "I wasn't planning on making love to you or anything," he said, as a mischievous smile drew across his lips. He turned his head to the side slightly, as he brushed a lock of black hair from his eyes.

"The thought hadn't even crossed my mind," he added, not able to keep from teasing her a bit. "I was just . . curious, in case I happen to run into another beautiful half goddess in my travels." A soft chuckle rumbled in his chest. "Marriage is not in my future plans anyways. I am billions of years old and am not married, why marry now?" he said, somewhat to himself. His attention refocused on Sinkah as she spoke again. By now the smile on his lips had faded away, and his lips turned up forming a small smirk again. Now she was saying that an affair wasn't a big deal. She sure did change her mind quickly . . . but then, that had to do with her father. He guessed that when she had a father like Osiris, having sex, even when unmarried, was a big deal, because she was half goddess . . . although it still seemed hypocritical.

Isper let his head rock back into the warm water, rinsing the sand out of his hair from travel, before dropping down and letting his whole head sink under the water for a moment before bobbing back to the surface. He rubbed his eyes, and glanced up at her again. "Are you going to remain standing in the cold air?" he asked, as he absentmindedly let the tips of his fingers drag along the surface of the water, creating small ripples, before raising his hand from the water's surface, but small streams of water followed his fingers' trail, like pieces of string. "It's much warmer down here," he murmured, pointing out the obvious.

[Sinkah-Ra Osiris]

How dare he imply that she wasn't satisfactory to him! How dare he insinuate that she wasn't desirable! She was one of the most attractive women she knew of. That opinion would have to be changed quickly; she would not have any man thinking she wasn't desirable. Many men around had tried to seek her hand and body alike, but none had succeeded. If she herself allowed such mongrels to touch her, she'd be thrown to Min by those that believed her. As much as constant commanded sex was appealing, she knew she'd get bored of it very rapidly.

Sinkah stepped slowly towards Isper, and relaxed herself down beside him, facing him. "I mention you, because simply that I am the first female you've come across, if you've gotten here from Greece, since the boat docks late on the last day of the week..." she commented, moving her figure from beside him to a straddle, however closer to his knees than his hips. "It is cold; perhaps you could keep me warm?"

[Isper Skoro]

Isper's sapphire eyes followed her as she moved to set beside him. What she said hadn't made much sense when it came to what he had mentioned before, but he decided not to argue about it. It didn't matter. It was true that she was the first woman he had run across since arriving in Egypt anyways, but that didn't mean he couldn't tease her about it a little bit. "How do you know that you are the first woman that I've come across since coming from Greece?" he asked, the smirk remaining on his lips. "Maybe I met a lovely desert beauty on my way here," Scorpio said, the stars in the black spots of his eyes flashing slightly. When she moved to straddle him, his back and shoulders automatically stiffened slightly. Funny how this 'teasing' seemed to make her seem more . . . more . . . just more! Isper cleared the back of his throat before speaking again. "But then maybe you were the first woman I came across. . . . You don't know," he said, although he seemed to have a slightly more difficult time getting his voice out than when he had spoken before.

"It iscold; perhaps you could keep me warm?"

Although, tempted take Sinkah and smother her, Isper restrained himself. He sat unmoving. After what she had said, he was sure that this all wasn't actually going to lead to what he wanted, at least, not yet. She was simply irked at what he had said before, about 'sex with her not even crossing his mind'. At least, he was pretty sure that was the case. He wasn't stupid. She was going to try and prove him wrong and then yank what she had dangled in front of him away. But it was oh, so difficult to hold himself back. The threads of water had dropped from his fingers, before he let his hand drop back into the water. As his hand went down beside him, he, without hardly thinking about it, let his finger tips lightly brush the side of her thigh.

"I could keep you warm . . ." he started, putting in an effort to make his voice sound as distant as he possibly could with the circumstances. "That depends though . . . How warm would you want to be . .? And aren't you not allowed to --no, we can't be that warm, I guess. Besides, until you mentioned it, I hadn't even thought of it." He let his fingers run back through his dark hair with a sigh, as he met her eyes with his blue ones. "Maybe I could just keep you a little bit warm, but not much . ." he said, barely able to hold the smile back.

[Sinkah-Ra Osiris]

Sinkah perked a brow. Were all Greeks this indecisive? He seemed moreover confused about the traditions that she'd tried to explain to him. It wasn't all that complex; at least to her. She could only sleep with thick blood, not the blood of commoners, or even royals. Perhaps he needed a better explanation. His comment about her not being allowed to only magnified her conviction.

"You misunderstand...I'm not allowed...to touch the humans. But you're a half-god by definition...if not even a full god...That means that you're not a human, and you have thick blood..." she leaned closer to him, her chest pressed faintly against his. Her lips took a position beside his ear, her right palm resting on his shoulder as her tail slinked around his waist. "That means you're fair game, as am I to you."

Sinkah leaned back again, enough to keep her face an inch from his. It took quite a bit to snare Sinkah in this type of scenario; challenging her pride was the only one. He'd made her believe that he thought she wasn't good enough, and raised the way she had been by the Osirian Priest, she was led to believe that she was -always- best. "That is, unless daddy finds out about us, me...and doesn't like you...Then you'll be bound to me forever."

[Isper Skoro]

"You misunderstand . . . I'm not allowed . . . to touch the humans. But you're a half-god by definition . . . if not even a full god . . . That means that you're not human, and you have thick blood . . ."

Ah, so now she believed him. He parted his lips to reply, but stopped as she leaned towards him. He almost, looked down at the feeling of the breasts lightly brush against his chest, but kept his eyes, which had started to glaze over with lust, on her own. Isper tilted his head slightly towards her as she placed her lips near his ear, his gaze, roaming over the exposed flesh of her that he could see from their position. Scorpio almost jumped at the feeling of her tail curl around him, not from fear of how dangerous her tail was, but simply because he hadn't been expecting it. He clenched his fist under the water as she whispered into his ear. A soft shiver rippled down his spine at the feeling of her hot breath grazing his ear.

"That is, unless daddy finds out about us, me . . . and doesn't like you . . . Then you'll be bound to me forever."

"Forever?" he started with a half smile. "Forever is a long time . . ." he said quietly, leaning forward very slightly, halving the inch between them. "I don't know if its worth the risk. 'Daddy' might not like me, then I would be with you forever," he mumbled. Despite his 'godhood', it was very possible that Osiris wouldn't like Isper, be it because he wasn't Egyptian, or that he was in Egypt to 'regulate' the gods' activities; restrict them from getting out of hand. Most beings, be it god or human, did not like to be restrained. He paused, letting a silence hang in the air as his sapphire eyes swept over the features of her face once again. He guessed, because of her beauty, she was perhaps one of the most sought after women in Egypt. Maybe it was lucky that she had woken him up from his nap earlier.

Finally, Isper made a movement. He let one of his arms snake around Sinkah's waist slowly, feeling over her smooth skin under the warm water. His other hand went to rest on her thigh, caressing it. He leaned forward a little bit more, closing the distance between their faces, along with pushing his chest slightly more against her own. His lips, at first, only gently brushed her own. "Mmm, I like risks," he murmured, after drawing away only enough to speak. His lips returned to hers, though this time much harder and more passionate than before. As his kissed her, his form unconsciously changed again, converting back to his zodiac form that he had shown her before. Isper didn't pay any attention to the change, it only meant that he could feel each sensation in more detail and deeper than in his human state.

Scorpio's hold on her waist tightened slightly, and his hand that rested on her thigh gave it a soft squeeze. Isper's lips parted slightly and his tongue came out and gently ran along her bottom lip, asking for entrance. He had won. She had been irritated before, and he had ended up bringing her to him. Scorpius would make this half goddess his soon, he was sure that nothing would prevent that.

[Sinkah-Ra Osiris]

Perhaps he had won her guard, but he hadn't yet claimed the title as 'first', and he wasn't the only one who'd 'won'. He wouldn't tonight either; she wasn't going to be pierced in the middle of a city in the community bathing pool. Certainly, she didn't consider herself a lady of the night - and as such, she wouldn't be acting like one. Sex on the street and mis-loyalty were both out of the question. She might not be willing to marry anyone just yet, but surely, she could manage to quell the driving force within her to run and taste the many men who would long to be her metaphorical meal, before she chose the one she would happily devour.

Now, sense would demand attention to the fact that she'd known this Isper half-god for a good ten minutes if at all, and it would point out that it was also not common to see both sexes bathing in the same basin. Sinkah knew that in fact if anyone who knew her spotted this happening, they'd accuse her of desecrating Isis' healing waters. But surely, a little kissing was not a desecration, right? Besides, his lips were sweet and fierce like hot honey ginger tea, and it was after all the middle of the night. She couldn't help feeling a little like Bathsheba, but she wasn't married, nor was he King David.

Sinkah easily and happily allowed his kiss access to her lips, and smirked inwardly as he jumped from her tail.
