Pirate Ain

"Ain. He's a unique lad I met during my time with the Stormchasers. I was never able to tell if he was high on the herbs he constantly smoked, or was genuinely carefree. Quite the large fellow, too, seeing how he was either drinking or munching on anything that came close to his mouth. With that said, I'd hate to see the tailor who tried to make his clothes fit; such a large frame even for a dragonkin, I swear even the largest Kanis Dragonkin waist sizes wouldn't even come close getting past those enormous buttocks let alone his belly.

But, he's a memorable, invaluable friend of mine. Hardly able to talk fluently nor even read the simple alphabets, he's intellectually sheltered, but with his knowledge in one of the hardest mechanisms of a ship, I'm still puzzled on how he acquired such knowledge on a subject matter my engineers still struggle to understand.

Ain is someone I'd call a true friend. His open arms policy always kept my spirit high, his smile somehow forced a smile on my face, and his laughs only brought more laughs from all of us. It's impossible to make him feel sad or depressed. With his attitude, I can't even imagine what tragedy would somber his cheerful nature.

I remember when we first met, with my depression at its lowest point and thoughts of suicide flowing in and out, he first intruded into my life with my wallet in his hand, and a smile of some town idiot. The events of that night still haunts me yet it's a lot less daunting, knowing he was the one who gave his time and effort in keeping me from taking my own life. a few days after, he offered his friendship and I turned it down. It wasn't long before we became friends, though, going through hardships together and keeping an eye about of each other even if we were at opposite ends of a spectrum.

Funny... I even punched his face in rage, slammed him to a wall with anger, and shouted in his ear with fury, and every time, he hasn't fought back, only wanting to help.

I will admit, he was also the first person I've had a legitimate homosexual attraction to. It was... in lack of better words, strange. As you know, I love my wife, and mentor my son, yet on rare occasions, I still go see him. He'd always welcome me with a hug I can't pull away from and a kiss that melts my stress away. Of course, I feel a bit guilty of my actions in the past, yet he keeps assuring me it's a natural thing. Love can't be bottled up for a later time, it'll only grow heavier and heavier until the heart sinks into depression. That lesson kept me from falling back into depression and I still  struggle to repay him for it.

I would've opted to stay with him on board the Stormchaser, his friendship is invaluable to lose. If given the chance, I'd invite him on board the Exodus, a comrade I can rely on even if it's only for a moment." - Marcus Roh, Fleet Admiral of the Bantioc Naval Forces on board the Bantioc Flagship Exodus

Bantioc Good Morning, Unity of Trinity

"Good Morning, Unity of Trinity! it is another beautiful day up here in the Bantioc Airspace of Exodus, we're expecting to see a long set of clear skies and smooth flying as far as the eyes can see! and another set of good news for you with allergies, the Unity of Trinity hydroponics has closed off those pesky vents to control the pollen content in the air so you fellas can breathe easier! Now onto the daily commute: Shuttles are ranging from class transports to personnel carriers. Naval Forces and associates who commute can have the easy ride to and from the Exodus with no hassle of delays or time gated docks. Those who plan on taking the usual Shuttle Six may want to transfer over to an earlier flight seeing how she's suffered some problematic Engine Fatigue. Hah hah, as we all know, it was going to happen sooner or later. Good thing that the engineers pulled her off the flights before something worse can happen. That's all for the morning minute hosted here by the Unity of Trinity Ship-wide Broadcasting Network, and have a beautiful, sunny day! This is Comms Officer Helios Uptouya, signing off!"

Galivas Taming the Beast

The deep growls and muffled moans were heard throughout the corridors. Some of the Palace residents looked around their general areas to see what was going on but quickly dismissing as nothing more than the cold winds blowing through the palace halls and the rattling of the icicles that hung from the edges of the structure.

No one dared to even mention the true reason.

It was obvious of why and understandable because of a certain outcome, and many prefer to let the two what they do best. So privileged to reside on the palace grounds rather than mustering around the Military Complex, the two lovers figured it was an opportunity to share a more intimate gesture.

"I want to know what it feels like... what it feels like to be the submissive partner."

"My love, you've just made your biggest mistake..."

It wasn't long for the night to drag on for the palace residents, periodically hearing a deep muffled roar from the corridors or a moan that brought a few into a state of wild fantasy but one thing is for certain: The beast was tamed that night but still with little hope of mercy to the predator.

Galivas The Predator

It was a dark, cold night, the sound of metal grinding against stone, a familiar squeaking of a heavy wheel. He made his way to the chambers, wanting to find a comforting bed after a long night at the Military Complex, dealing with the off-season diplomacy and temporary armistice, he just wanted a comfortable ground to lay on. What he finds inside, though.... is a much different story.

Happy New Year!

Happy Solar New Year submission! Praise be to the glorified deities of Aoion, Amen.

Galivas Presentation

Winter is coming to the Kingdom of Prosperity. This is the season of rest and rebirth celebrated by the whole country. Many prepare for two of several events of this season: the mass hibernation and the "rut." From just one word, half of the military goes on recess as the other half are too busy filling their bellies or processing documents. But let's not forget the other half of the military, the portion that goes to recess for their very special occasion in the year. It's not the time where they share the joy and wonders of holiday celebration but of something much more primal; the deepest natural urge that all creatures harbor with or without guidance.

Sex.

Winter is not only the season of sleep for Galivas, but it is also the mating season for their hardened warriors of the Kanis Dragonkin descent. Not only do their bodies grow in size for preparation, but also their strength and stamina surpasses the normal limitations. Some say attacking Galivas at this time is the best to fell the most powerful country, but most know, "Don't poke the wasp nest unless you want the stingers." And they're right, The warriors may be on a break, but disturb their rut and hell will break loose.

Galivas "That Night You Didn't Stop"

"It was a quiet, calm morning when I woke up at early dawn to meditate for the daily exercise. Deep within my own mind, somehow, I couldn't concentrate as well as I could, something was tugging my mind off to one side. It wasn't long before I realized why that was... It was my brother's, the great King Warren Havok I, birthday. I got up from my floor and began looking for the ruler, but he was nowhere to be found. I asked the guards where he may be and most reported seeing him still in his chambers. I wanted to at least wish him happy birthday, but with times like these, moments slip by like sand between the fingers. Rushing to find my brother, the chamber doors were pushed open only to be greeted by an empty bed, neatly made, the chair pushed in with the documents and treaties signed and stored, and a small note written in his hand writing.

'Xyro, I've headed to Bantioc to talk with an old friend. I will return within the day if not later.

-Warren."

But I wanted to wish him happy birthday face to face... Then I realized something, my brother is still here, if not in a physical body, the embodiment of his essence and emotions. He can get annoying at times but he's definitely the brother I knew before the tragedy. I found my Xeros, and I asked him to join me in the plan. We both knocked on his door, and the moment he opened, we jumped him. Slamming him back onto his bed, we tore off the little cover he had, a body towel held around his waist. He struggled at first, shouting at us and bewildered by the sudden attack, but it wasn't long until we calmed him down, taking long drags, nipping on the tips, slowly but steadily stroking and squeezing and massaging...

Later that day, my brother did return from Bantioc and asked me to see him in private. When I arrived with a gift he would love, he was changing out from his royal apparel to his more casual clothes. Something in the air didn't smell right, and he asked me what I did to his other.

'What did you do to that big mouth Warren?'

'Well, isn't it obvious? Xeros and I wished him a happy birthday!'

He paused, slowly blushing and looking down at his feet, I suddenly could feel this essence of deep thanks but also of deep frustration.

'You certainly did a good job at it, because I felt every bit of what you and Xeros did to his body.'

I paused. Speechless... What did he just say?

'Next time, please warn me before you proceed to sexually assault him, because I found it extremely hard to concentrate with my own body reaching orgasms every five minutes during the whole endeavor.'"
