Fox and Knight 2 (RP)

Fox and Knight 2 is an ongoing roleplaying session between Stephánus Tavilrond and Mika Hinari. The full RP logs can be read in the article RPG:Fox and Knight 2 - it is in the English language. Despite its name, it is not a sequel to the first "Fox and Knight" - the only thing they have in common is the two main characters, but there is no continuity between the two.

Plot
Stephanus Tavilrond and Mika Hinari are adventurers - effectively glorified treasure-hunters - who have known each other for years. Secretly, both have feelings for each other, but are afraid that the other might not feel the same - nevertheless, years of partnership have been succesful so far. At the beginning of this story, they arrive at the ruins of an ancient temple, hoping to collect treasure. They run into what seems to be a trap, but leads to a secret room - instead of exploring it, they decide to proceed, only to run into a relatively large monster. After defeating it, the two of them run into a dead end - after harvesting the monster's tooth and claws, they decide to check on the secret room, which contains much treasure. Under the assumption that the treasure might be cursed, they use magic to carefully transport them to a bag of holding, and then have them inspected upon returning home later.

Satisfied, the duo decides to leave the dungeon, but en route to home, Mika gets a bad fever. Stephanus pitches a camp for them, boils herbal tea to cure her, and undresses her to make sure her wet clothes won't increase her exposure. He feeds her the tea, and confesses his feelings for her - she confesses that she feels the same. They kiss, and make love for the first time.
