       Re: How does one "Feel?"

       Zoran chuckled when Sunset compared the experience to different
       highs. the allusion to the sensual sense that comes with an
       Ecstasy high was particularly notable. Zoran couldn't tell if
       she was actually forward, and playing coy, or if her nerves
       truly caused her to lose control of her tongue! Either way, she
       was an interesting character. The real question though, was
       could she be -useful- to him?
       The Demon analyzed everything about Sunset as she spoke. Her
       body language, her tone, her expression. He took it all in in
       excruciating detail, and what it told him was that she wasn't
       confident in her capabilities. She understood the importance of
       being able to read people, but when it came to her powers, she
       was still learning. This was ideal for Zoran! It meant, if he
       played his cards right, she could be molded in any way he saw
       fit! He could turn her into an invaluable weapon! Or at least, a
       fun toy! He decided he wanted her. Now to start making moves....
       "It's a good habit to have for someone with empathetic
       abilities. That's honestly what I was doing when you arrived."
       He admitted. People often underestimated the power of the truth.
       It was a far more dangerous weapon that deceit. With it, a web
       of illusions could be strung, and all sorts of intentions could
       be hidden in plain sight.
       And then came the question that Zoran was waiting on.
       "What is it about me that has you so fascinated?"
       A smirk played on the black eyed man's face as he looked Sunset
       in the eye. "People often underestimate the possibilities, and
       the potential of a true empath." He finished his cup before
       continuing.
       "Think about it this way. I can influence a person's nervous
       system to alter their senses. You can influence something that
       can't be explained by science. Something that exists at a
       person's very core. Do you realize just how much potential lies
       there?" His words spoke only of her ability, but his eyes were
       telling a completely different story as they looked her over as
       if she were his next meal. What was it that he REALLY wanted? It
       was hard to call.
       When the Fae beauty asked if he would like to meet up for coffee
       again, he checked his watch, feigning surprise as if he had
       stayed longer than intended. He stood to his feet and offered
       her the first sincere smile since he arrived at her table.
       "I'd like that" He responded. "How about tomorrow? Maybe I'll be
       able to help you get a better grasp on things." He reached for
       her hand, and kissed the back of her palm, opening his aura to
       her, only slightly and for a brief moment. But what he would
       allow her to read, was a genuine interest in helping her grow as
       an empath, and... well, Perhaps a few intentions that weren't as
       noble. "Same time?"
       Once it was confirmed he went on his way. He had a bit of
       studying to do before they met again. He needed to be on his
       A-Game.

       Re: How does one "Feel?"
       By: Zoran Date: February 21, 2020, 12:51 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Zoran was planning to pay a visit to the business sector after
       leaving the coffee shop. His intention was to finesse his way
       into a few new business partners. But the opportunity that had
       fallen into his lap was far more tempting and he couldn't turn
       it down! He made his way back home, pulling up to his estate in
       half an hour. His home was far from small, but for a man of his
       means, it could still be considered modest. On the outside, at
       least.
       In truth, Zoran was a fan of the finer things. He didn't care
       for status symbols though. Human's opinions of him mattered less
       than dirt. But luxury was something he enjoyed to no end. Fine
       furniture, art, cooks, and servants. Zoran was no stranger to
       comfort. It made for an interesting contrast to the regular,
       every day clothes he wore out, or the simple Nissan Maxima he
       drove. He was definitely a complex man.
       He walked into the house and avoided greetings from his servants
       who were surprised to see him home so soon. He was focused and
       had no time for small talk. Through the living room he walked,
       past the staircase that lead up to the second floor. He took a
       left past the kitchen, and made his way to the one door none in
       his home were allowed to pass through. On the other side of the
       door, was a second staircase; one that lead downstairs.
       The floor plan to this house didn't include a basement. It
       simply detailed a two story home with glass walls. After all,
       what better way to hide something, than with total transparency?
       When Zoran reached the bottom of the stairs, he was met with two
       doors; One to either side.  He walked through the door to the
       right to find himself in his private library. illuminated with
       florescent lights that bounded off the marble walls, one
       wouldn't guess it was located underground. Bookshelves were
       stacked practically from floor to ceiling. Rows and rows of
       literature on all sorts of topics, organized meticulously! Near
       the door was a single desk and chair, with a small lamp. Zoran
       walked past it and toward the back, where he knew he had
       information on different types of creatures, as well as
       different abilities. In five minutes, he returned with a small
       stack of scripts on Fae, as well as magical Empaths. He had much
       to review...
       The next morning, the Demon would arrive at the Steam Room
       dressed in a suede blazer, and slacks. Nothing he wore was name
       brand, but it was all of high quality. His locs beat lightly
       against his back as he entered the establishment, scanning
       quickly for his companion. Since it seemed she had yet to
       arrive, he took a seat, deciding not to order without her. This
       time, he was far more prepared, and he would have what he
       wanted...

       By: Sunset Date: April 9, 2020, 11:34 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Sunset sat for a few minutes after he left, first watching him
       go and then staring after him. She wasn't quite sure what just
       happened.
       She glanced down at the hand that he had clasped in his so
       briefly. He'd let her get that glimpse, she was certain but what
       she had felt was surprising to say the least.
       The curiosity about her and the interest in her abilities she
       had expected. The absolutely salaciousness she had not. The
       feelings were so intense that she could almost see what he
       wanted to do to her.
       But buried under that was something she didn't think - no, she
       knew - he hadn't meant to share with her. The bone-deep deep
       loneliness struck a tender chord within her..
       Standing up suddenly, she strode off back the way she'd come, in
       mission mode. She never thought she'd say this, but it was time
       to study up on demonology. She'd need every advantage possible
       to keep up in this game she found herself in, but Sunset has a
       sneaking suspension that she was already losing.

       Re: How does one "Feel?"
       By: Sunset Date: April 22, 2020, 10:43 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Her apartment was a little lonely since Sunset's mother had
       decided to make her permanent home in Faerie with her
       now-husband; Sunset's father was something like royalty and
       couldn't make his home in the human realm, so they compromised.
       Mimi would raise sunset in the human world and let her be a
       normal kid. Romulus would be as present as he could in his
       daughter's upbringing and he often attended parent teacher
       conferences and important events. Sunset and Mimi vacationed in
       the fae realm during summer breaks and Sunset grew up learning
       about both sides of her heritage.
       As far as they could tell, except for her eyes that turned a
       startling amethyst when in Faerie, the Fae gene missed her. But
       it turned out she was just a late bloomer due to her human
       blood. Sunset felt like she'd had to go through puberty twice.
       At first her empathic abilities made her go through wild mood
       swings as she'd pick up and internalize emotions that weren't
       hers. Her mother had taken her to several doctors before having
       her father arrange an appointment with a Fae physician. To the
       Fae, it was a normal occurrence in adolescents and it was easily
       apparent that Sunset had developed an Ability.
       She half-smiled, half-grimaced as she relived the bittersweet
       memory. Her father had been so happy that she was more like him
       and his pride overjoyed her... but suddenly she'd been a bit of
       an outcast with her human peers as well as her fae ones. A few
       years later and she was still playing catch up.
       She shook her head and sat at her dressing table. Taking a deep
       breath, she let her eyes fall closed and concentrated on Faerie.
       When she opened her eyes again, she was sitting in her room on
       the other side of the veil. She still wasn't sure how they were
       able to make a vortex or portal or whatever it was in exactly
       the same spot but she never cared for the science behind the
       magic, just that it worked.
       Crossing her suite, she quickly made her way out and to the
       library. Time moved differently here and she didn't want to be
       late or miss her... meeting? Date? Sunset shook her head. She
       just didn't want to be late.
       It was easy to find the book she needed ‐ something like a
       paranormal encyclopedia - and flip to the correct section.
       "Demons," she murmured out loud and set to soaking up all she
       could in just a few hours.
       The time passed quickly and she reread her notes as she returned
       to her room to cross back over to the human realm.
       *Low level Demons are said to each be associated with one of the
       seven “Deadly Sins” They tend to be rather one dimensional in
       their need to live by, and spread their given sin.
       Higher level Demons, however, may represent multiple, or even
       all of the sins at once, though they usually still have a
       “primary” sin, for which they have the strongest affinity. They
       can also be far more multifaceted, forming their own beliefs and
       desires.
       While Demons are often depicted as “evil,” it’s possible that
       this is more of a “nurture” over “nature” matter, as Demons
       raised outside of the Infernal Dimension have been known to
       carry many different ideals and alignments.
       Like other races, the abilities Demons develop are usually
       hereditary. However, High Level Demons are sometimes capable of
       “consuming” the abilities of other creatures, adopting them for
       their own.*
       That last bit gave her a bit of pause, but she quickly pushed it
       away. She'd seen a glimpse his interest and curiosity in her
       ability. She hadn't felt anything malicious in that
       She wondered what sin she was dealing with in Zoran as she went
       about her bedtime ritual. It had only been a few hours in Faerie
       but it was almost midnight once she crossed back over. Years of
       travel back and forth had taught her that the best way to deal
       with the extreme jet lag was to always sleep when the sun went
       down.
       Hopefully, she mused as her eyes closed, she'd be able to push
       her own sins to the back of her mind lusting over him wouldn't
       distract her too badly. Her subconscious laughed at her as she
       dreamed about rippling muscles covered in tattoos all night.

       One of Zoran's associates told him that it was weird seeing men
       his size wearing blazers. They made their dimensions seem out of
       whack. Zoran's clothes were well tailored. His jacket didn't
       look as if he was on the verge of busting out of it, but it was
       clear that there was a strong layer of muscle beneath. Even so,
       the words rang in Zoran's mind whenever he left the house in a
       Blazer.
       Since his companion had yet to arrive, he didn't make his way to
       the counter, instead taking a seat outside at a table that
       offered him a great view of the sidewalk. There was a young
       couple having an argument about where they were going for dinner
       later that night. But there was something beneath the surface
       there that wasn't being addressed. The young woman had an anger
       behind her speech that didn't fit the conversation. This man had
       done something that he didn't know she'd discovered. But he
       would find out soon...
       Zoran wondered how much Sunset would be able to read on the two.
       Could she see more than he could? Could she alter their
       emotions? Put a halt to the anger and change it to something
       different?  The thought was exhilerating! There was no telling
       what the possibilities could be, and that was what made her so
       appealing! He took a moment to check his clock. He had been a
       couple minutes early so she wasn't late. Many people hated being
       early for dates and outings; believing it made them seem too
       eager or desperate. But Zoran's professional habits had made him
       into a very punctual man. For now, he would just take in the
       sights. The real fun would begin soon!
