addie, darien, fox

Sunday June 1
Who: Addie, Fox, and Darien
What: Corruption
Where: Fox's room, then Darien's
When: After this

Addie had no words for her recent conversation. The guy was at a total loss. Had no idea what he'd gotten into. Oh, it would be so fun to screw with his head.

As for Fox, well, she had yet to really meet him, but any guy who would volunteer for a threesome with another guy was a-ok in her book. With these thoughts in mind, she skipped down the hall, chains jingling merrily. "Room service," she called, complete with Latina accent, as she knocked on the door. If he was as devious as he seemed to be in the conversation, this was going to be a very entertaining evening.

Darien had seen televisions through store windows and marveled at them, but none had shown them something so graphic and disturbing. Where were those peoples morals? Their parents could see that for god's sake. He understood the place of whores, for husbands whose wives denied them and women who had no other choice or way to make money. In this world there were so many options. No one had to do that. They could do anything else. He couldn't wrap his mind around why a woman would allow that to be recorded or a man would be able to do that to a lady.

"Men watch this and touch-" Darien said and shook his head, "Why would a man misuse a woman's image like that? Don't they care for the child that woman once was? For the mother she'll one day be. The man to that is with her, doesn't he consider that his child could one day see that," Darien said putting his hand to his face and getting up, "How could you so selfishly view something like that? It only encourages it's continued existence. Do you try enjoy watching two people be exploited?"

He looked between them trying to understand how they had gotten so numb to all this. Showing off he could almost understands, pants he even liked on women, but for this to be a common practice and pass time. His skin crawled.

"Ok, for one, not all women become mothers. Some choose not to. A woman is not defined by whether she bears children or not. Secondly, no, I don't think they think about whether not their kids will see it. Good point." Hey, she could make a concession when it came up. "And thirdly, it's not selfish. It's not exploitation. Lots of people talk about the so-called abuses women in the industry go through, but no one ever thinks the men are abused. So that leads me to believe that there's no actual abuse, people are just bitching because they think that women are weak and helpless and all that other bullshit. Furthermore, they are paid like just any other entertainer. And, yes, I can enjoy it. Sex is very pleasurable. Anyone ever tell you that?"

Take that.

"I've been told sex is very nice. For both parties if a woman is treated correctly," Darien said softly. He'd never taken part himself. He respected women too much to venture to a whore and while he had had fiancees he had never married. He had kissed and even touched a woman's breasts, but the ladies he wanted to marry hadn't been the type to go further before they were married.

He decided not to comment on the whole motherhood idea. The idea of forgoing the chance to be a parent didn't make sense to him, but she obviously thought it was natural.

"I've never considered women helpless. My mother was a hard worker and in this day and age they do what men do. That doesn't mean that my opinion that they should be honored and are precious is automatically wrong. A woman's body is sacred and should be treated as such not put onto film and shown around. From what I've heard sex outside of marriage is the norm, but even then shouldn't she share her body with her lover and not with everyone in the world? Same is to be said of a man although their privacy has always been less considered," Darien said realizing he was preaching to a deaf choir but willing to try none the less.

Fox's eyes nearly buggered out of his head. "You've been told? Implying that you're still a virgin?" He let out a rich laugh. "Oh man, we've gotta get you laid. You're missing out on a whole world of possibilities." This, of course, was coming from a self-proclaimed slut and the rumors here had no problems keeping up. Fox thought there were a couple whispers going around of him fucking a few people he hadn't yet, but yet was the operative word. He'd probably get here eventually.

Wow, this guy still acted like the mentality of the world was that from the 1930s. Crazy. "I'll admit that there are still people out there that think the same way. Save themselves for marriage and bullshit. But I'm willing to bet that there was porn out when you were around, though more subtle than now. Men still went around and slept with various women. Married women had affairs, sometimes with more than one man. It's not uncommon." Giving a shrug, he glanced between Darien and Addie. "We're just a lot more open about it now."

The first thing he had to stop thinking was that his only recourse was a whore. He could have casual sex if he wanted, and it didn't make the woman a whore for fuck's sake.

"A lot more open and we've done away, or at least the sane people have, with the notion that women are sacred or different from men. Well, aside from the obvious." Pausing a moment, she did a quick search for burka. "See that? That's from a country where a woman's hair is so sacred that only her husband is permitted to see it. Oh, and it's in the desert. Doesn't look too comfortable to me. Oh, yeah, almost forgot... If a woman is raped, she's stoned to death. Because obviously she tempted the man to do it. The whole sanctity thing doesn't work for me. People go to fucked up extremes. And believing that women have to behave like the Virgin Mary makes any woman who has sex a whore." And now for the clincher. Looking straight at the man, she asked deadpan, "Do you think I'm a whore?"

People made the mistake of believing that since Addie treated most subjects with scornful sarcasm, she couldn't manage a decent, intelligent argument. She could, quite well, in fact. Most of the time, though, people were so hypocritical, or the situation so satirical, she just couldn't take it seriously.

It was a lot to take in. Obviously the world he had grown up in, been taught how to live in was dead and gone. The ideals of these young adults were so far from what he'd known it was enough to make his head spin. In one of the libraries he had visited he had read a little on this sexual revolution, than feeling naughty had put the book back. He regretted that now and wished he'd had more forewarning about what he'd be walking into.

"First of all," he said turning to Angel and avoiding Addi's question. He needed a moment so he could lie better. He had wondered if she was a whore at one point in time, although not unkindly.

"If by getting laid you mean have intercourse with a woman, I think I should be the one to decide that and not you. And yes those things happened. Surely you've heard of gossip. That doesn't mean anyone condoned it or spoke of it openly," he said before bracing himself and turning to look at Addison.

"And no, I don't think you're a whore. I believe you're a liberated woman who has strong opinions. I highly disagree with the ideals of this hair worshiping place and I can't condone stoning a woman for anything. I can, and will, come to terms with the fact views on virginity and women's place in society has changed. Part of me wishes it had happened sooner, I would have liked my mother to have a chance to do something more with her life. But I don't want to change how I look at women. I don't think it's wrong. I think women should be treated with respect, with dignity and consideration. Not like some sex machine, which is all I see in those films."

Fox would have shuddered to know that Darien thought of him as "Angel". Being a damned spawn of a heavenly being was an accident of birth, and not one that Fox would have chosen for himself. As much as he would have liked, he couldn't change genetics, so he dealt with it as much as he had to, and forgot about it the rest of the time. Muttering under his breath, he spoke while Darien was having his little monologue. "I still think you should get laid." Shrugging his shoulders, he decided to let it be for the time being. Hey, it wasn't his dick that was missing out. So let the guy work with Rosie and her friends for as long as he wanted; more for Fox. He sat quietly and waited for Addie to take over again. This must be a huge culture shock for Darien. Too bad for him it was damned amusing to Fox.

Thinking she was a whore, but not unkindly?! Fuck that. Pity was as offensive as scorn, and Addie would have demonstrated this point very clearly if she'd known his thoughts. With her fist.

The sassy blond smirked at the vampire's protests about making his own decisions. It wasn't her usual mocking smirk that left everyone wondering what sort of cutting remark had remained unspoken. No, she thought he had a good point, and he had a backbone. Good for him.

Hair worshiping place? Addie internally facepalmed herself. Not quite the impression she'd meant to leave. The parallel had clearly gone right past him. "Oh, but you'd support stoning a man then? What about giving a man respect and dignity? Do you see how it's hypocritical to give some people these virtues - and others not - when it is based on nothing they've done? It's an accident of birth, nothing more." The cryokinetic shook her head and sighed. For now it was a pointless argument. Nonetheless, she found the lost vampire not entirely annoying. His wish for his mother demonstrated that he wasn't a lost cause altogether.

Time to switch gears. "Ever want to go study art at the Louvre?" she asked, already typing away. If he couldn't appreciate porn, she'd have to convince him of the awesomeness of the internet another way.

"I'm glad you think so Fox, but I can't help but disagree. When the time comes I'll know it," he said then turned back to the computer. He stood behind Addie amazed by even the most basic of computer skills. It looked like magic, but he tried to hold in his awe.

"I suppose your right. I remember a woman who went mad after her husband never returned from the war and killed her children. She was put to death, obviously. So, I suppose it does have something to do with deeds as well as gender," Darien said having been beaten down by one point. He still wasn't planning to go 'get laid' no matter how amazing Fox thought it was. It wasn't as if he hadn't had chances in his time, he'd decided not to. Although here if he happened to be pursuing a young lady, he might choose not to ignore that itch when the time came. As long as the woman was open to the idea of course, if she was like minded with him he'd go on as he always had.

"The Louvre? In France? I suppose. Art has never been my favorite study and taking so long of a trip in order to see it always seemed pointless," Darien admitted.

Fox shrugged and let it drop for now. It was no secret around the school that he loved sex and the variety offered here was akin to a feast. A man would never starve for attention or loving with these willing women. Lucky for him. Not like he'd be without if he wanted. He knew where to go in Danvers, Boston and the like for a few old haunts. He'd yet to resort to actual whores and paying for it, and never would.

"Well if art's never been your favorite study, what are you interested in? I'd bet between Addie and myself we could hook you up in less than ten seconds with images, information, and probably book you a plane ticket to go see it." He wagged his head from side to side. "Though if you wanted a decent price for the trip, I'd say thirty seconds."

"How very Medea of her," Addie snarked grimly. The spunky blond knew her Greek mythology? Why yes she did. One didn't ace World Lit without knowing a thing or two. Knowing a Hellhound personally also give her some motivation to further educate herself, not that she'd let on to that to Malakai.

"Ok, a) that was hypothetical, and b) what if you didn't have to leave your chair?" With that, she opened up the video tour of the Louvre she had sought out. Nodding in agreement with Fox's statement, Addie suggested, "Yep, get you tickets to Japan, or a video chat with hot Asian schoolgirls. Whatever your heart desires," she finished with a wink in Fox's direction.

The Geek myth surprised him a bit. Then again why should it? Those stories had lasted a very long time. He'd read the stories along time ago, but he still remembered them. He would have commented, but he was staring at the artwork in the screen. He could almost smell the dust and paint he associated with museums.

"That's the portrait of Marcus Agripa. I remember seeing it in a photograph when they first started going in the history books. That's amazing. It's in color too. Are you moving this image?" Darien asked highly impressed. He obviously appreciated the artwork more than the porn. A bright smile cross over his face and he looked over at her then at Fox.

"I think I understand why you like the internet now."

	Fox just watched as Darien seemed to be taken with the computer more in this intellectual pursuit rather than the amusing one, but hey, it was a place to start. "You haven't even touched the tip of the iceberg yet, Darien. Anything you want, there's a way to get it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Addie had to chuckle. "Yes, it's in color. Here, this is Google," she explained. "Put any topic in the bar, click search, and you'll get zillions of sites that cover the topic. Have fun. And I'll be checking your history to see what porn sites you've been to. I know it's all a facade," she smirked. (Reply to this) (Parent)
