The current game time is: Wed Apr 29 20:24:44 105 PA.

Late night/early morning for Moe's is again a quiet time. Desmond is at his table and is predictable in what holds his attention. His notebook and his sentences, the big male scrawling his lines carefully. His writing style growing tighter and more relaxed as he practices constantly. Finally finishing his latest page, he leans back and breathes out deeply. Eyeing the long line of words critically, but ultimately seeming pleased with the results.

The door to the tavern creeks open, letting in a cold gust of air with it, though notably it's finally stopped raining. Something the Pantheran who enters is at least somewhat happy about. As usual, his pitstop here to pick up a meal to eat before heading home, and while the food here is not exactly the best, at least there's occasional decent company to be found. By now, feeling far more at ease with the other feline he often sees here, Kesslan merely makes his way over towards Desmond's table "Greetings Desmond, is well?"

Desmond dips his head to Kesslan when the other feline nears, having spied him quickly with his attention not fixed on his notebook for once. "Is very well, Kesslan" The big male replies. He doesn't bother to make motion of invitation allowing his tone to do that for him. Instead, he considers the other male carefully and asks, "You are pleased about something?" Perhaps seeing something.. perhaps not. When in doubt, question.

Kesslan slips into the a seat across from Desmond, his ears perking up slightly "Have speak with Aimee today. Seem Aimee decide time speak with Desmond more of Kelley and Kesslan. Stil not know each well but think Aimee could at least be good friend of Kesslan. Explain to Aimee how not wish cause problem or come between Desmond and Aimee."

Desmond nods his head once. "She and I spoke on this," he confirms. "It was a good talk. She has left the decision of what will be between us to you and I. And I believe she sees you as I do. Someone to be trusted. This is good, as I have wanted there to be a trust between the two of you." He sounds somewhat pleased, yes. "You have thought on this topic further? Or do you think still we have nothing to consider on the matter?" Not phrased with negative note to his tone. An honest curiosity at Kesslan's current thoughts.

"Amm... uncertain. Thing important Desmond must understand, Kesslan very much still part of Pantheran culture, even if not fit with other pantheran any more. Is way to put the greater before the self. Aimee and Desmond the greater in such case, would be great dishonor to cause problem between when both friend." Kesslan explains as he settles into his seat, regarding the larger male across the table from him "Is not that Desmond and Aimee have not thing to consider, but in end is more that Kesslan cannot allow own feeling to risk what Aimee and Desmond have. Is simply how is, so if feel this would be so then as tell Aimee would yes, make decision even if there is slight pain to all, for better that be some between us than between Aimee and Desmond." there's a long pause then as he lets the translator finish translating "But in end perhaps something can work. Aimee say not sure if cannot be jealous however, this thing that perhaps can cause problem, this thing to be wary of. But after have time speak with Aimee on own perhaps way can be found. Aimee not like other human Kesslan meet."

Desmond shakes his head. "She is not like most." He pauses, considering for a moment before he rumbles, "While she has not shown a specific leaning towards it, she has not ruled out becoming closer to you herself." Stated carefully, so as to not give any certainties. "I wish you to know that, should such a thing come to pass, I trust you with her. More than I have known before, I would consider you a trusted brother. There would be no jealousy from me, for I know you and your honor and I know how you would treat her. That you respect what she and I have. I would see that you know this, so as to ease any decisions you might have to make in time." His voice firm, serious.

Kesslan nods "Is thing wish speak with Demsond of, for Aimee have speak to Kesslan on this Some. Agree perhaps hasty was but..." he pauses, shifting slighlty and his ears dropping a moment "Was worried may cause problem for Desmond with Aimee. See now perhaps would not be so. Is thing Aimee suggest, but Kesslan say to Aimee not try rush thing such as this. Is very pantheran path Aimee seem follow with this but even for Pantheran such a relationship can cause issue."

Desmond nods his head once. "She mentioned it to me.. I did not know if she spoke of it to you. I told her the same as I tell you now. Between you and I, there would be no jealousy. I feel there is little I cannot share with you. And she is that which I would have the hardest time sharing with most." He pauses and considers. "I will also tell you of some of my plans.. plans I have discussed with her. I intend to seek out a better living space in time. One that will have two bedrooms. I offered the other to Aimee, though she turned it down as I expected. She has a strong desire to live on her own in the now. Something I would not begrudge her. You are the only other I would offer the room to, though there is the concern of the radiation that is part of you. I have yet to speak with Aimee on it, but once I have and am sure she will not mind it and once the issue of your radiation is confronted, I would offer that space to you if you would have it."

"This would accept so long as Desmond accep that I would work to pay towards upkeep then yes? Not certain how this is viewed among your kind but is important that provide something in exchange. Cannot cook, can clean some but is best at simle proivde money it seem to help pay thing such as rent." Kesslan says as he takes in all Desmond has told him "Caliopa still work on way to help deal with this issue of radiation. Await possible answer, hope even for such." Desmond nods. "It would be the same as I offered to her. A split of the rent for the living space. We each would have a room that is ours alone and the rest would be shared. Between you and I, I doubt there would be much need to clean. Despite the region you live in, your living space was tidy. I do prefer to keep mine simple and ordered." He considers and adds, "I would need to let her know that she is still welcome there.. if she decided to no longer live alone. To share a living space with you and she.. I could not think of a better arrangement." Indeed, the idea seems to please him, by his tone.

"Is certain agreeable with Kesslan. Would nice be to not have to live in this 'trailer'. Too small, too cram after while. Especially if have friend visit such as Desmond. Seem very small thing for Desmond need to move around in." The pantheran says with an ammused wiggle of his ears. "SO then what is wish of Desmond beyond this? Simple wait see how all work between all?"

Desmond nods his head once. "The trailer was quite small. Though so too is the room I am allowed here. It will be good to have more space. And privacy." Then comes the serious question. Desmond seems, in truth, none too sure of just what to do. "I am unsure, Kesslan. Aimee has said she will accept what we decide, you and I. But I am still cautious. Even though I wish to speak of this with you, I acknowledge that we might have to wait a bit longer. I wish Aimee to feel towards you as I do.. such that there is no jealousy between we three. If we could achieve that.. then there would be no more issues, no more concerns."

"Truth, and this will certainly accept. Pacience to outweigh desire. Shall wait then for decision of Aimee..." Kesslan says "Perhaps more may develop later on, Aimee invite Kesslan to share meal with Desmond and Aimee. Think this is good first step."

Desmond nods his agreement. "I do as well. Perhaps it will be a good time to speak more with her of your ways.. you have told her much of this yet? I think she might look upon them as I do. Something that is understandable. So too your burdens, your mission and all else. I cannot be sure, but I think it would help her to understand you deeper than she might now."

"Have spoken some with Aimee of this, Aimee seem understand what Kesslan feel must do. Uncertain how much Aimee true understand for translator can cause issue with this at time, and not know Aimee welle nough to be certain." The pantheran says, slowly moving to get up from the table "However, should perhaps be best now if Kesslan return home. Have had long day, grow weary and little more can be accomplished untill more time there is to speak with Aimee."

Desmond nods his head once, rising as Kesslan does. A respectful gesture. "Very well. I must thank you for your understanding in this and your patience. It has only been recently that I have had the same and they seem to come very easily to you." Indeed, there is strong respect in his deep voice and he'll extend his hand across the table towards the other feline. "Rest well, Kesslan. Until we meet again."

Kesslan however goes around the table to Desmond, rather than accept the hand he instead leans over and gives Desmond a friendly hug and a light head bump "Untill meet again Desmond. Certain I am this shall bee soon. But in meantime shall seek to further speak with Aimee. Is easier now that know Desmond mind on such thing and that Aimee seem willing to be open to such attempt."

Desmond meets the more personal parting gesture without pause or hesitation. Turning towards, then embracing Kesslan as the smaller feline begins the hug. He nods his head once at Kesslan's words. "Yes. You and I shall be as she and I are. No secrets and honestly given. You deserve no less. Be well, my friend." After the embrace fades, Desmond will give Kesslan a firm pat on the shoulder before he retakes his seat again. Feeling better for the whole thing, really. Allowing his mind to wander on the developing subject for a time. Tags:desmond, kesslan
