Another day in Heaven.... -_- (Open, fun, a little adventure) Gohrick, others PM to join

Reaching out she was about to stroke his chin, but decided against it and took his hand instead and stepped out into the hallway then pulled him into a hug without saying anything, just holding him in her arms as she nuzzled her nose against his neck.
Biting her lip, she blinked furiously trying to hold back some tears and finally let go of him as she said shakily " I'll miss you so much kitty, I can't remember the last time I've had so much fun getting lost in a jungle before..." taking a deep breath she managed to calm down to the point of not wanting to cry anymore and continued "and i will definately let you know the next time I need a holiday"

He stared into her eyes as she reached up, only to take his hand, giving hers a soft squeeze, following her out and hugging her back just as tightly, lightly rubbing her lower back, his tail wrapping around her waist and just holding her.
“I’ll miss you too Cru…I didn’t think I could grow so attached to someone in such a short amount of time…but I did…Without a doubt Cru, you’ll always be one of my closest friends…maybe more down the road…but always in my heart either way,” he said softly, hearing her taking those shuddering breaths and feeling the trembles in her body.
“Heh, you better let me know…I don’t want to find out you had a week off and didn’t bother to call,” he said with a smirk, trying to get her to smile again.

"or what?" giggling a little she took his hand again and leaned her head on his shoulder as they went towards the navigational room. "can we go someplace on this ship where there is a good wiew? I like to feel the wind as I travel, if at all possible" giving him another puppydog look she pretended to pout a little as well in hopes of it working

“Ay, that would be the top deck…because of the design, everyone up there, even through the portals, is safe because of the Wheel of Fate…come on…” he said, giving her a smile while not dignifying a response to her challenge. He lead the way on up, past what he had come to think of as ‘their’ room, and past the Captain’s quarters and the gambling room. He opened the door for her, and the roar of flames could be heard.

“Welcome to the top deck, the best seat aboard the Calamity,” he said with a grin, as the giant flame wheel spun over and around them as the flames shot out behind it, propelling the ship forward.

Cautiously Crucent stepped out on the deck, watching the landscape shoot by underneath them as the winds howled in her ears and whipped around her body. Looking up she saw a huge wheel of fire spinning around the entire with of the ship, flames roaring as it flew them speedily towards Vana 'diel.

"Holy crap! this is incredible!!!" Looking at Goh she was amazed at the level of technology used to build the Calamity. Walking over to the edge she held on to the railing and looked down "it's so beautiful!" Turning a little she beamed a smile at him "she is gorgeous Goh, I can see why you like her so much"

Goh watched her as she stepped carefully towards the edge of the ship, himself just walking straight up towards the bow of the ship and staring out in front of him. He felt the wind whipping through his fur, his shirt and shorts billowing out slightly as he smiled against the wind.

“Ay…she is my pride and joy…Closest I’ve ever come to having a daughter or a love of my life,” he said with a smile that just lit up his entire face. “Salvaged her from the pits of the desert sands…took us a good month and a half to get her up and running again…a month and a half that I’ve never regretted,” he said, before turning back to Cru with a smile.

“Now…get ready for an amazing light show Cru…it’s not every ship that allows you experience inter dimensional travel while outside,” he said with a smile, before raising his paw up in the air.

Kyto, who had been working from within the Wheel of Fate, saw the hand signal, and punched in the overdrives, the red flames turning blue as the ship increased in speed, before breaking into the dimensional gap.

All around the Calamity, the world went black, before glowing a faintly purple and pinkish color, the flames still burning bright blue as streaks of light went all around the ship.

“Welcome to the Meta Space,” he said with a grin.

Looking at Goh she smiled, at least till he raised his hand.

"inter what?" having no idea what he meant she blinked, then blinked again as she could have sworn her eyes were lying to her brain, insisting that everything was now outlined in pink and purple hues. It was both quite worrying but at the same time one of the most visually stunning things she had ever seen.

Feeling absolutely overwhelmed by the striking beauty of it all, she simply sat down on the deck, lost for words as she looked up at Goh who was also faintly outlined in pink and purple. Finally she managed to find her voice again and said "oh my goddess... it's.... so beautiful..."

“Something interesting about the glass on most airships…they bend the light so horribly that you can never actually see the true colors of the dimensional travel…It usually goes unnaturally black or insanely white…this is the true colors…and as far as I know, it is only because of the Wheel of Fate that we are able to stay out here and view this…Next to Kyto, I’m the one who spends the most time on deck,” he said with a smile, walking over to her and kneeling down next to the stunned Cru.

“Take it all in…It’s a little intense the first time, I’ll admit,” he said with a smile, before looking up and around everywhere...It truly was a breath taking experience.

Nodding she laid down on her back and looked up to get the full effect, watching the blue flames against the blackness of space "no wonder you stay up here so much, it really is beautiful..." looking at him she smiled softly "...just like you. It seems I've said it alot but, thank you for showing me this, I'll never forget it."

He watched her lay down and took a seat, leaning against the railing as he stared down at her, watching her body bathed in the lights of blue, pink, and purple. “Heh…I think you are getting confused…its beautiful like yourself I think you meant,” he said with a soft smile.
“Cru…This is but one small part of what I do in my life…This is the reason I became a sky pirate, a delivery man, whatever you want to call me…This freedom…This is part of my soul…I’m glad you are here to share it with,” he said softly.

Blushing a little she looked over at him and replied softly "awww... don't start that again. I'm perfectly normal and plain. But I am very glad I got to see this; and knowing it means so much to you makes it all the more special kitty..." Getting up she walked over to him and sat down on his lap as she nuzzled his neck, whispering quietly "thank you honey"

“Plain? Normal? Cru, I think you need to replace your mirrors, they have been lying to you for years…that or maybe get a good pair of glasses,” he said with a smile, holding her closely as she sat down. “You are beautiful Cru, and I mean in more than just looks…” he said with a smile, nuzzling her back and purring softly. “Anytime Cru…whatever I can do to make you happy,” he said with a soft purr.

Blushing even more she smiled at him and rested her head on his shoulder "by the sound of it, your the one who needs glasses hun, I look normal but you seem to think im not. And you have made me more happy then I ever thought I could be so dont worry about it kitty"

Sighing happily she traced his scar from the fight with the Grendel lightly "your a bit mad, but you make me happy" Grinning ahe kissed him softly on his lips

“Cru, I ran away from home at 5, started working on ships at 7, lived the life of a rogue and a vagabond on a cruise airship, stepped in front of an attack from a Grendel, I’ve my own ship filled with miscreants and crazy knife throwing cooks…I have to be a bit mad to survive in these worlds…,” he said with a smile, purring softly as she traced his scar, kissing her back gently and nuzzling against her nose.

Chuckling a little as she listened too him, Cru replied "well, since everything helped make you to who you are today, I'm not gonna complain cause I happen to like you as you are kitty"

Curling up in his lap she laid her head against his chest enjoying the sounds of his purr as she looked up at the sky and knew she'd never forget the feeling of complete contentment she had at the moment

“Well, it’s the paths that I’ve taken that have converged with your own fate and your own path…I’ll not speak of any complaints of the road I’ve traveled when it’s lead me to such a promising…treasure,” he said, a play on words of being a sky pirate. He gave her a warm smile and a tighter hug, before the lights around them seemed to start brightening.

“We are now entering Vana’Diel airspace,” came an announcement over the ship’s intercoms.

“Get ready for an amazing sight,” Goh said with a grin, as the light of zero space merged with the sky of the world, almost like a curtain was being slowly pulled back over them, looking material as trails of the previous dimention were pulled with the ship before fading to nothing. They were here…

“Home…” Goh said softly, taking a deep breath and shivering slightly…it had been so long. Perhaps…too long…

Looking up Cru couldn't help but smile, both cause she was back home but also cause the effect as they came into Vana 'dielian air was mindbogglingly beautiful.
Gving Goh a bright smile she kissed him and got to her feet, then leaned onto the railing of the ship and looked down on the land, feeling a weird mix of happiness and sadness.
"it's so pretty..."

Returning to Goh she asked him quietly "do you think you can drop me off in Jeuno?"

Goh slowly took her lead and got up on his feet, before leaning his back against the railing, not looking down but staring up at the sky. The very sky that took his heart the first time, and then became part of his soul as he aged.
“Jeuno huh? I was thinking of just giving you a parachute and tossing ya off from here,” he said before turning his head and giving her a wink.
“Actually, that’s where we are headed…seems we came out a bit early, so we still have some time before we get there,” he said, giving her an easy going smile, being happy for her and happy for the time they did have, rather than being saddened by their parting. He would be saddened later…he wasn’t going to have the last sight she had of him for now being a depressed kitten.

Laughing she swatted his arm "No thanks, I'm good at many things but flying isnt one of them"
She then gave him a sideways glance, admiring his profile before she walked over to him and slipped her arms around his waist and just held him close as she rested her head against his shoulder.
Murmuring quietly against his chest she said "I know kitty, and I feel the same way..." turning her head she looked at him and gave him a soft kiss, then just held him close again, trying to imprint everything about him to her memory before they arrived in Jeuno.

Goh laughed and held his arm with a play pout, before giving her a smirk. “Hm, are you sure? You got some pretty strong arms, I’m sure you could flap pretty quickly to fly,” he said with a wink, before sighing happily and holding her lightly around her shoulders. He felt the wind around them and slightly tightened his grip on her, holding her closely.

Nodding his head as he heard her over the wind, he could only kiss her back gently, lightly rubbing her back. “Hm…see right through the brave face, huh? Well, can’t blame a kitty for trying,” he said softly with a smile, inhaling her scent once more and purring deeply and happily.

“Still…it’s not a goodbye…it’s a ‘see ya soon’, right?” he commented with a small smile. “Hm…I wonder what your aide will say when he sees you were kidnapped by a sky pirate for just short of a week,” he said with a playful grin, trying to lighten the mood once more.

"oh he's gonna have a fit, don't worry. But not because of you, because I left without his permission." Smiling she looked at Goh "then again; he always prefers having me safely tucked away behind my desk, signing things, and starting tomorrow; he'll be happy again with me back in my place
Looking down on the world flying by underneath them for a little while, she then sighed quietly and nuzzled Goh's neck with her nose, feeling less then happy that she'd soon have to leave him.

"But yes, it had better be a see you, or I may just not forgive you kitty" Smiling she laughed a little and kissed him

Gohrick laughed slightly at the image of a Tarutaru having a fit, before snuggling slightly against her, purring as he felt her nose against his neck. “Hm…Cru stuck behind a desk…Cru on a desk…a slightly better image I think…Oh, did I say that aloud?” he said with a grin, still trying to keep her upbeat and laughing. He would be damned thrice over if she didn’t leave with a smile.

“And you can bet your leadership that I’ll be visiting or calling again soon…Your too good a friend for me Cru, but I’ll not be losing that bond anytime soon to anyone, or anything. A treasure beyond all measure, worth ten times more than any king’s ransom,” he said with a smile, nuzzling and giving her a soft kiss.

“Hm…I wonder…would he be more upset or less upset if this was suddenly some official business? Wouldn’t want you to get too grounded you know. I know how much you enjoy your adventures,” he said with a smile, a small plan brewing in his furry head.

Laughing softly she looked at the Mithra and replied "yes, you did just say that" smiing she listened to him and gave him a quizzical look as she considered the answer "hmm, if it was official he'd simmer down. He's big on protocol. why? what's thats devious mind of yours up to now?"

“Devious? My dear Cru, you wound me with a silver dagger against my piratey heart,” he said with a grin, before giving her nose a lick.

“Well, how about this…you received an official letter from the world of Eight, from Galbania, and they were interested in opening trade routes with Vana’ Diel. Nothing major, but possibly starting with one or two ships, and then perhaps starting a fleet to trade goods, maybe even technology and foods across the two worlds. And that you just took a ride with the first ship to pick some materials…” he said with a slight smile. “It makes this official business, and the truth of the matter is…we actually do have some goods from Galbania right now, that we could work on trading, so that further covers, as well as starts something to help both worlds. Vana’diel has the raw minerals and mines, while Galbania and 8 have the technology to actually work it…something that a world leader could see to further the help of both worlds…”

“Now, this is just a basic idea that flew in the top of my head, but if you feel like it wouldn’t fly, then I guess I could sneak in while your grounded,” he said with a small smirk. He really had just come up with this on the fly.

"Oh no! whatever can I do to heal your wounds O rogue Pirate?"
Feigning despair Cru laid a hand to her forehead before bursting into laughter.

Listening to his idea she nodded, quite impressed as he explained.
"hmm, well it's definately a good idea kitty, but I happen to know Shade. if she got wind of this, I doubt she'd be happy... but still, the idea has it's merits, plus it requires no Crunapping or break-outs wich can only be good, since a Leader sneaking out of her own house might be a bit strange"
