The Prince of Rats Ninus felt that arousal pressed up against his own, a blush reddening his cheeks as he lay there. Their hips were so close, and though Ninus wanted some sweet relief he didn't dare move his hips. He kissed Novus good morning, resting his hand on his cheek, and moved forward ever so slightly so Novus could feel that their conditions were mutual. "Thine condition is mine own. It seems my body no more wants to obey the words that fell from mine lips than thine body." he smiled. He kissed Novus again, pressing his body close and feeling the warmth in his loins that spread when he pressed a very intimate part of his body against Novus' own. "This is nothing but sweet torture that I would give anything to extend." Ninus whispered, pressing his hips tightly against Novus. He wanted to give in so badly, his body burned with arousal. But he kissed Novus and sat up, running his fingers through his hair and disturbing Cricet. He arched his back, stretching and greeting the sun with his body. "My dear lady, wilt thou join thy companions in the streets? Find a man who works for the one who pulled me from the tree on that fateful day, and see if thou cant convince him to come hither. If not, return and tell me your tale." Ninus petted her head as she stretched and yawned, showing rows of sharp, shearing teeth. Cricet gave him a look and leapt up to the window. Ninus turned on Novus with a playful smile and straddled him above the covers, keeping the sheets between them and resting his palms on Novus' chest. "Shall you rise to greet the day, my spider, or lay until it sets low on the roofs in your silken web?" he asked with a smile. |

The Prince of Rats Ninus was pleasantly surprised by the passionate kiss he recieved, and was all too content to wrap his arms around Novus and kiss him back just as passionately. A soft, gentle moan escaped his lips from the positioning...he could feel Novus betwixt his legs, lust blooming inside of him. He considered begging Novus to take him, right there in that position. He contented himself with kissing the half-Sym, their hips rubbing against one another. When they finally rose and Ninus dressed himself, the rats were beginning to return. One after another they stumbled sleepily through the window, some of them clutching the scruffs of pups. Ninus kissed Novus and went to the cupboard, pulling out a loaf of bread and setting it upon the floor. "Eat and eat well, my good friends and companions. Your happiness brings as much joy to me as the presence of my spider." he squatted and petted a few of them, stroking his hands over gray, black, and even spotted pelts. Some lifted their heads and nuzzled his hand, others were too busy gorging themselves on the bread to notice. Ninus rose with a smile, tearing off a hunk of bread as he did so. He headed over to the rag pile and split the bread evenly between the nursing and pregnant mothers who couldn't compete with their sleek counterparts. They, for their part, all seemed grateful and gave him a lick of the hand or allowed him to pet their tiny, fuzzy pups. Once he had taken care and greeted all of them (some by name), he returned to Novus and kissed him. "I will break my fast with you, darling spider." he said with a smile. "But like any good prince my men were fed, the mothers and children with full bellies and good companionship. I dare not slander them by not performing such a ritual, as I owe the rats a debt I can never repay. Each rising and falling of the sun is repayment of that debt, in but inches where the total is a mile." Ninus smiled fondly at Novus. "Cricet needs but ask one of her brethren if they have caught sight of me....and where there is food, there is a rat." he said. "She is a goddess of the slums, all-seeing and all-knowing as long as her subjects and servants keep a cocked ear and open eye. My goddess can find me, wherever I roam in Syliras." He left Novus to grab the key to his home and slip the brass syringe into his pocket. As his only method of self defense, he never went without it. Even once the poison was deployed into one enemy, all he would have to do is inject the second with air and he would die swifter than the first. He opened the door for Novus, standing aside so he could exit the small apartment, then shutting and locking the door behind them. |

The Prince of Rats Ninus tilted his head toward the stone above them. "It makes sense that my spider would have but a loft in the clouds, where I sleep down in the gutters amongst the rats as is my pleasure and duty." he said. "I would be loath to step so close to an office held by my mortal enemies, those tin-plated donkeys who step up and down the streets near your home, hocks held high, braying in such harsh evil voices. Yet if that is truly where my spider's web hangs, I shall take him there and without delay." He kissed Novus' cheek. "A rat needs his fangs, even in such a calm morning." he said regarding the syringe. "But mine are but the stolen fangs of a snake, to incapacitate and envenom my enemies. I dare not leave without it, for no knight has yet found a shield to block it when he is relaxed in his duties and unaware." He smiled. "Worry not about such things, my spider, it is your own venom that protects us today." he lifted the syringe from his pocket and let Novus see the tiny glass window in the brass tube. The amber liquid within was unmistakeably Novus' own, and Ninus wanted to see what would happen if it was injected into soft, unyielding tissue. He had heard that half-Syms could dissolve soft things like fruit and eggs...why not the fat or delicate veins of a man, burning his delicate tissues from the inside? It was an experiment he was eager to deploy if a knight crossed them. He hated them; they killed his rats and his father's men, and wouldn't hesitate to throw him in that hideous pit of theirs if they found out his trade. He led Novus up a wide, winding public staircase to the third level directly above them. He was apprehensive about the ground level...his rats roamed here but cautiously, and he found more corpses than he would have liked. The second level was expressly forbidden to all but a very clever class of rats, giant gray sleek things with a countenance as proud as the knights themselves. Ninus saw one such beast as he led Novus to the third level, and the rat lifted its head and snorted at him. Ninus inclined his head politely, and both rat and men moved away from one another. "A member of mine companions' aristocracy travels to the fourth level on some unseen business...interesting indeed." he muttered under his breath. They exited out into the gorund level proper, near the housing office. "Do thine surroundings seem familiar?" Ninus asked. He let out a rather undignified yelp as a large pair of arms encircled him from behind and lifted him up into the air. "Ninus!" The behemoth laughed and crushed Ninus close to his chest. Ninus scrabbled in his grasp for a moment longer before he paused. "Is that mine bearlike brother that has assaulted me thusly?" he demanded, someone irked he had been picked up like a skinny child in front of his prospective lover. He recieved a bristly kiss on the cheek from the man. "Still calling me that after all these years huh? Cricet found me up here trading for things for your father, was heading off toward the stairs and here I find you." 'Brother' said cheerfully, putting Ninus down and smiling at him then at Novus. "Who's this?" Ninus straightened himself. "Novus, meet mine brother. Brother, Novus." he said. The man Ninus called his 'Brother' could have easily been a blacksmith, stocky with shoulders like an ox and arms as big around as Cricet. He was a few inches over six feet, with a simple linen shirt that looked as if it was struggling to hold in his barrel chest. Bright blue eyes and a rather impressive red mustache adorned a very amused, heavy set face. Simple brown breeches adorned powerful thighs, and his large feet were contained in a set of cracked boots. The man held out a large hand to Novus. "Glad to see Ninus is finally making some friends that don't have long tails. Or should I check for one?" he chuckled. |

The Prince of Rats Ninus winced a bit. "To feed him is to feed a giant, or an army of giants if his stomach is indeed empty. I've begun to believe the knights' black pit lays within his belly." he said to Novus, but Brother laughed and clapped Novus heartily on the back. "I could do with some tucker before I head back to your father!" Brother said, smiling. "Lead on, Novus, and I'll get to catch up with my little brother here." He chuckled and grabbed Ninus in another hug, rubbing his knuckles harshly on Ninus' scalp. The poisoner slipped free of his grasp and clawed his hair back into position, giving Brother a scowl. How dare the behemoth embarrass him around his friend? "Brother, it is not on some social errand that Cricet was sent to find you." Ninus told him, though a glance at his feet told him Cricet was nowhere to be found. She was probably off on errands of her own, getting breakfast and socializing with her own kind. Though she hung around Ninus more than a rat should, she liked to have her alone time when Ninus was well-accompanied. "Oh?" Brother asked. "Novus is looking for his sire, a man my father might be acquainted with. He watches the men along the road as vigilantly as any hawk, as do you. He would be honored and in your debt if you could find this man." Ninus said. Brother nodded, rubbing his chin as they followed Novus. They would speak about it more over breakfast, but Ninus knew Brother liked a good riddle, as did Churchkey, and if there was one thing the highwaymen prided themselves on it was knowing every inch of the roads through Syliras. It would hurt their pride to admit defeat at finding a trader. Ninus left Brother to think, walking beside Novus. "Brother shall consider it, he needs to ruminate over the offer." he told him. "Worry not, gentle spider, I have every confidence in my father." |

The Prince of Rats Ninus looked at the spartan room. It seemed so...empty. But without rats, everything looked empty to him. The creatures were such steadfast companions to him, that seeing a room so bare made him think that no one lived in it. "Ist thou so desperate, to live in a bare monk's cell with no companions nor pleasantries?" Ninus asked. "Spider, for such a beautiful creature thou hast a very bare web. No glittering drops of dew hang upon its silken strands, no meals lay packaged...instead thou hast dust." He sounded a bit sad as he said it. It was not out of pity, but the very room was sad. He waited for Novus to grab his things and walked beside him as they exited, Brother quiet as he trailed behind them. Ninus smiled gently and pressed his arm against Novus', gently. "Brother and I have no secrets betwixt us, like any pair of brothers." he said. "He knows of my proclivities, but his merry heart holds little hatred. It is strange, that a man so joyful in life, is a terror on the battlefield. My family is made up of many twin-headed demons, but Brother is the strangest of all. A kiss from you I would savor upon my lips, spider, and would cause no anger from Brother. Nay, he would be happy I hath found such a good companion. But it is my father and mother's decision to begin the search...a deer does not so ignorantly leap into the meadow when hunters may be about. We shall see." he snuck in a kiss to Novus' cheek. In the tavern, Ninus ate a delicate, small meal of bread, meat and what fruit he could purchase, while Brother swigged ale and ate heartily. "So, lad, how has living been here? I haven't seen you in a while. We were all beginning to think you'd been knifed in an alley somewhere. Your mother's been hounding after your father. Inconsoleable, been driving poor Churchkey up the petching wall. Horst thinks you're fine though, and I bet on you being alive and well." Brother smirked. "Living is...scrubland here. Sparse and dense with more cruelties than kindness, patrolled by machines made out of iron and not wood and rope. But life has its pleasantries here, I work with peace." Ninus said, slipping his hand under the table to clasp one of Novus'. "Knights have taken a few of our number since you left. Ben's dead, so are Sam and Worth. We've been laying low on the south road, taking only a caravan a week. It's been getting real sparse, traders are getting wise and hiring more guards. Though we also added a few. Teenagers mostly, think the life of a highwayman is all swigging ale by the fire and singing bawdily. No one ever tells you about the bad food and the rain." Brother said. He shrugged and looked at Novus. "So boy, looking for you old dad eh? Half-sym? Don't let the other poisoner catch hold of you, he'll wet his shorts with glee. I never get what it is with poisoners and the damn widows, they think its some sort of holy-petching-grail." Ninus scowled a bit at Brother. "The poison of a widow is a strong one indeed, no man has studied it, for no man has captured the poison. Many spiders hunt with such a poison, but not in such volume, never so strong. It is a noble thing, wise and old like a great snake. I would not dare disrespect such a creature. Older than the earth, I bow to my elders." he said. Brother shrugged again. "Hey, I'm not insulting him. I'm just saying the day you get an ounce of that nasty stuff is the day I hire a food taster and wear a shield on my back." he said. "I know you wouldn't ever harm us, but if those knights ever start poisoning quarrels, I officially will retire. Better a farmer than seeing a hole burning through my chest. So, what does your dad look like? A corpse, seeing how he bedded a Sym? I hear they eat their mates." Ninus put down his fork and his scowl deepened. |
