You have just entered room "CI of Great Ebil."
Molokidan: Welcome!
Lithaladhwen: Allo.
Lithaladhwen
: We still waiting for more people?
Molokidan
: Well, if you guys reeeelly want to start, we always could.
Lithaladhwen: I'm okay to wait. Still a smidge of homework to do.
Molokidan
: Okay.
PsychoQuadDuck: (I'm also okay to wait for at least one more.)
GC130A
has entered the room.
Molokidan has left the room.
Molokidan has entered the room.
Molokidan: Okay then!
Molokidan: Sorry, I got disconnected.
DeathRaySpleen has entered the room.
Molokidan: (everyone ready to get going?)
Lithaladhwen: (Allo. If you give me a moment, I'll post a sketch of my character for ease of description.)
Molokidan
: (Okay.)
Lithaladhwen: (It'll be neat, I swear)
GC130A
: I shall probably be lurking, due to RPing elsewhere.
PsychoQuadDuck: (In a few moments I'll be ready, yes. Filling out the last bits of unusual equipment for my D&D character.)
Molokidan
: (Alrighty.)
GC130A: And lagging like hell. Can't forget that.
Molokidan: (If anyone has any suggestions for setting, throw 'em at me!)
Lithaladhwen: (Igala?)
GC130A
: OUTER SPACE.
Lithaladhwen: (The Hood)
DeathRaySpleen
: The Far Corne-*shot*
Molokidan: (The Hood?)
Molokidan: (*shoots spleen again for good measure*)
Molokidan: (Brb, 10 minutes. Everyone be ready by then!)
Lithaladhwen: (Yes. As in "Leprechaun in the Hood)
Lithaladhwen
: (Nearly ready!)
PsychoQuadDuck
: (Okay, only thing left now is who to use.)
Molokidan
: (Dude. Lep in the Hood is a great movie.)
PsychoQuadDuck: (Alright, then.)
Molokidan
: (Okay, so....Kai and Div are ready.)
Lithaladhwen: Pretty much.
Lithaladhwen
: (Ten seconds will do it)
Lithaladhwen
: (There)
Lithaladhwen
: (*glee*)
Molokidan
: (Okay....so!)
Molokidan: (Setting is the lake in Doma, for lack of a better idea!)
Lithaladhwen: (In the park, as AM informs me?)
Molokidan
: <Molokidan>
Molokidan: (Yes, 'tis in the park! There's lots of ducks there.)
Lithaladhwen: (Ye gods. The ducks.)
PsychoQuadDuck
: (Yes, the ducks.)
PsychoQuadDuck
: <Clyde>
Molokidan
: (Yes. ;_; )
Lithaladhwen: <Myrnal, a character you guys probably don't know>
Molokidan
: (I know him/her not! Where's the picture?)
Lithaladhwen: (Here she is, starring in the worst scan ever.)
Lithaladhwen: (Damn link. Hold on.)
Lithaladhwen: (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/17163929/)
Molokidan: (Wow. that's some awesome hair.)
Lithaladhwen: (I need to find a huge-ass scanner to do it right)
Lithaladhwen
: (There are other ones of her in my DA gallery)
Lithaladhwen
: (Like so.... http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/17162804/)
Lithaladhwen: (Her with her knives and a link that should not have a ')' at the end)
Molokidan
: (Rockin'.)
Molokidan: (Shall we begin? Div?)
PsychoQuadDuck: (Yes. I was waiting for someone else to post the first description.)
PsychoQuadDuck
: (But I guess not.)
PsychoQuadDuck
: *resting in the park is what appears to be a silver garoujin in a striking orange vest and pants. However, the garoujin's features are a little too 'clean' to be accurately considered a garoujin*
Molokidan
: (It's really just a park. With ducks.)
Molokidan has left the room.
Molokidan has entered the room.
Molokidan: *Molokidan is poking around the lake, looking cautious for some reason or another.*
Molokidan: *He's wearing his normal attire, a full green tunic with a purple shirt underneath, blue hair, you get the picture.*
PsychoQuadDuck: *Clyde decides to move closer to the lake, seeming a little tired*
Molokidan
: *Upon closer look, Clyde realizes that Molo is holding a thin fishing pole, yet he's keeping a clear distance from the lake.*
Lithaladhwen: *Sitting under a tree somewhat at a distance is a young woman in a black Nekonian gi. At her waist is a belt with about ten different knives on it.*
Lithaladhwen
: * She's throwing knives at a nearby tree trunk and then periodically retrieving them.*
PsychoQuadDuck
: *looks right over to Molo, and in a rather tired voice* ....uhhh, sir.....
PsychoQuadDuck
: (I assume Molo's holding the fishing pole like he's actually fishing with it?)
Molokidan
: (Yes!)
Molokidan: *turns around suddenly to face Clyde, as if he had just been surprised* Wah!
Molokidan: Who are you? what do you want!? *looks very tense*
PsychoQuadDuck: If you're actually fishing, you might want to get closer to the water.
PsychoQuadDuck
: As for who? The name's Clyde.
Molokidan
: Oh, hi. *gives Clyde a look up and down* Anyway, ssh! You have to be quiet, or they'll hear us.
Lithaladhwen: *Notices the others.... disappears temporarily into the shadows beneath the trees*
PsychoQuadDuck
: ....'they'?
Molokidan
: Yes, they! *gives Clyde a strange look* The ducks! If they hear us, they'll come after us!
PsychoQuadDuck: You kidding? After a day like this, the ducks would be a welcome sight.
Lithaladhwen
: *is behind Molokidan* Why are you so worried about ducks?
Molokidan
: Another person?! *he spins his head backwards this time* Who are you, lady?
Lithaladhwen: *She tilts her head and looks at him, amused* Myrnal.
Lithaladhwen
: Sorry if I snuck up on you there.
Lithaladhwen
: *doesn't look sorry*
Molokidan
: *blinks* Nice to meet ya! I'm Molokidan S. Tunksuu. *doesn't seem to notice*
Molokidan: *as he looks at Myrnal, the fishing pole begins to slip from his grasp*
Lithaladhwen: So, you didn't answer my question. The ducks?
Molokidan
: OH CRAP!! *Molo loses hold of the fishing pole, and it goes tumbling down the bank into the lake* NOOO!!
Molokidan: *he swerves around suddenly to face Myrnal* This is bad!! The ducks are going to get me now!
Lithaladhwen: Are they.
Molokidan
: You don't know about the ducks!! They do horrible, horrible things!
PsychoQuadDuck: *looks to Myrnal* The ducks swarm on anything edible like moths to a light, last I checked. That might be his concern.
Lithaladhwen
: *crosses arms* And what will the ducks do to you if they find you?
Lithaladhwen
: They're ducks.
Molokidan
: They'll carry me off and do their ducky ceremonies on me!
Molokidan: They'll peck me to pieces!
Lithaladhwen: *long inhale* I see.
Molokidan
: *turns back to the lake* I can't believe I lost my fishing pole!! This is horrible!!
PsychoQuadDuck: The ducks can't be THAT furious about you disturbing them.
Lithaladhwen
: Why don't you retrieve the pole if you're so attached to it?
Molokidan
: have you ever even SEEN these ducks???! They're psychotic ducks from Hell!
Molokidan: *swerves to Myrtle* Yeah right!! And go in the lake?! The ducks'll get me!
Lithaladhwen: (Myrnal... I know it's bizarre)
PsychoQuadDuck
: Look, if you're that scared, I'll go in there.
Lithaladhwen
: I'd almost like to see that. I could use some cheering up. Go get your pole.
Molokidan
: (Oh..Mrynal)
Molokidan: (*Myrnal)
Molokidan: *Molo latches onto Clyde's arm* You'l really go in? Really?
Molokidan: But it's dangerous!!
PsychoQuadDuck: *stands up* Look, danger isn't my problem. My problem will be if the ducks are furious.
Molokidan
: Can you fight ducks?
Lithaladhwen: I can fight ducks. I will rescue you from the ducks.
Lithaladhwen
: Go get your pole.
PsychoQuadDuck
: Yes. The problem is that my fury sense is worn out and any more stress on it could cause physical harm.
Molokidan
: Okay, okay, I got it! We'll go get the pole together.
Molokidan: Myrnal, you stay here and keep watch, okay!
Lithaladhwen: Fine.
Lithaladhwen
: Go.
Molokidan
: Okay!! *pushes Clyde far ahead of himself* let's go, let's go!
PsychoQuadDuck: *proceeds to the water, and is a bit hesitant to go in, at least waiting until Molo is near the water as well*
Molokidan
: *tiptoes in after Clyde* Do you see any ducks?
PsychoQuadDuck: Not yet. I was waiting for a guarantee that both of us would wind up going in.
Lithaladhwen
: Do you want me to push you in? I can if it will help.
PsychoQuadDuck
: *dives right in, searching for that fishing pole*
Molokidan
: HE DIVED IN!!! *in a state of shock*
Lithaladhwen: Yes.
Lithaladhwen
: He did. Amazing.
Lithaladhwen
: *eye roll*
Molokidan
: Did you find the pole yet??! *shouts*
Lithaladhwen: *wry smile* Sh. They'll hear you.
Molokidan
: *w*....you're right!!
PsychoQuadDuck: *after a while he comes up to the surface, gasping for air. Then* No luck yet. Gonna have to get a second look.
Molokidan
: Okay...!!
Lithaladhwen: I know. I usually am.
Molokidan
: *is still only knee-deep in the water*
PsychoQuadDuck: *goes back under*
Molokidan
: *as Clyde submerges, a faint quacking is heard in the distance!*
DeathRaySpleen: (People need to stop lecturing me! :D!)
Molokidan: *Molo turns slowly around to face Myrnal* ...did you hear that?
DeathRaySpleen: (Yes. I know my grades aren't top-notch right now. But I don't need to get the same lecture from Dad, Mom, my sister, my ex-girlfriend, my drum teacher, and now Darkknight.)
Lithaladhwen: I did.
Lithaladhwen
: (wt fargin f, Spleen)
Molokidan
: *the quacking becomes louder!*
PsychoQuadDuck: *again, Clyde comes up for air. This time he has the fishing pole, and he shows it to Molo* Is this it? I don't think I'll be able to stand going down there again.
Molokidan
: *Suddenly, two ducks are seen pedaling through the water towards Clyde!*
Lithaladhwen: Ducks. You still want your pole, Molokidan?
Molokidan
: Yeah!
PsychoQuadDuck: (Which one was that to?)
Lithaladhwen
: Because I'm not throwing my knives into the water. *indicates lots of knives on her belt* I like them here on land where I can use them.
DeathRaySpleen
has left the room.
Molokidan: *Molo takes the pole* Thanks...b..but...look behind you!!
Molokidan: *behind Clyde, the two ducks have stopped, and are staring menacingly at Molokidan*
PsychoQuadDuck: If it's the ducks, it can't be that bad.
PsychoQuadDuck
: *climbs out of the water*
Lithaladhwen
: Well, there they are. Worst case scenario, we all die.
Molokidan
: *the ducks quack once, as an ultimatum of sorts8
Molokidan: *Molo dashes behind Clyde* They're after me!
Lithaladhwen: *Looks at Molo with an expression of disdain* You're rediculous.
PsychoQuadDuck
: Relax, man. *his fur is still dripping a lot of water, of course*
Molokidan
: *A duck makes its way out of the water and moves towards Molokidan!*
Molokidan: *the other duck seems to be trying to flank the two*
Lithaladhwen: *steps back to the treeline* *disappears*
Molokidan
: *looks around* She ran away!! Why!?!
Lithaladhwen: IM: I'll just wait and see what happens. I can kill the damned ducks if need be.
Lithaladhwen
: *is hiding ninja-style in the shadows*
PsychoQuadDuck
: I don't know. Might be inwardly scared.
PsychoQuadDuck
: Just run. I'll handle the ducks alone.
Molokidan
: *runs over to the tree* Rock on, Clyde!
Molokidan: *the ducks face Clyde, realizing they must pass through him to reach their real target*
Molokidan: *the first duck charges at Clyde, while the second stays back to wait for an opening!*
Lithaladhwen: *a knife with a yellow handle flies out of the trees and decapitates a duck, unnecessarily electrocuting it as well*
Lithaladhwen
: *the knife whips back and returns to the trees*
Lithaladhwen
: (Ninja!)
Molokidan
: *stares in speechless horror at what just happened*
PsychoQuadDuck: *kicks the charging duck, assuming that's not the one that got decapitated. If it was, then he kicks the one waiting*
Lithaladhwen
: *ditto duck number two*
PsychoQuadDuck
: *or not, by now*
Lithaladhwen
: *does not hit Clyde*
Molokidan
: *the duck goes flying and is then decapitated in the air*
Lithaladhwen: (He got to it first)
Lithaladhwen
: (brb)
Molokidan
: IM: I didn't know Clyde could was telekinetic...but he didn't have to be so violent!!
Molokidan: *Silence for a few moments...*
Molokidan: *and then, from the other side of the lake, about two dozen ducks rise up from the bushes*
PsychoQuadDuck: IM: Oh great, what now?
PsychoQuadDuck
: *slowly starts to back away*
PsychoQuadDuck
: *and then turns and walks back to where Molo is now*
PsychoQuadDuck
: That..... was definitely something out of my control.
Molokidan
: (I'm waiting for Kai to come back)
PsychoQuadDuck: (Speaking of Kai, I'm not sure if I want to pull off the next joke I was going to use.)
Molokidan
: (What is it?)
Lithaladhwen: (Back)
PsychoQuadDuck
: (Well, Clyde's in full orange. Because he was asked earlier in the day to act as someone else. How many characters - for instance, from anime - do you know of that wear orange?)
PsychoQuadDuck
: (No, he's not pulling any of those moves.)
Lithaladhwen
: *steps out of the woods, yellow knife in hand* Well. Lots of ducks. Shall we kill them, or just leave them in impotent rage?
PsychoQuadDuck
: Well, I can't just kill all of them from here.... I say we let as many live as we can.
Lithaladhwen
: If you like.
Molokidan
: *the ducks charge head-on for Clive, the closest target* QUAAAACK!
Lithaladhwen: *tosses knife from her right hand to her left* They're not much good for eating after they've been electrocuted anyway.
Lithaladhwen
: *Ninja vanish!*
PsychoQuadDuck
: Great. *does a sweeping kick - the idea is to repel the ducks with energy waves emitting from the kick*
Molokidan
: *the energy waves strike the ducks and knock a considerable number of them back -- but five manage to slip past the others*
PsychoQuadDuck: IM: Dammit, dammit, dammit!
PsychoQuadDuck
: *Clyde tries another tactic - this time a backwards hand wave to try again to repel the ducks*
Lithaladhwen
: *the mysterious flying knife takes out one duck, leaving it appropriately smoldering, and then returns to Myrnal*
Molokidan
: *Ducks are flying left and right, but more keep coming and coming*
Molokidan: It's futile! There's no end to 'em!
Lithaladhwen: *knife.... return.... knife... two ducks down*
Lithaladhwen
: *Myrnal reappears* Why are we doing this again?
PsychoQuadDuck
: Where the heck am I supposed to retreat to?
Molokidan
: The ducks just want us away from the lake! If we leave, they'll leave us alone, I think!
Lithaladhwen: Well... then, leave.
PsychoQuadDuck
: *starts backing away*
Molokidan
: *runs over to Myrnal*
Molokidan: *the ducks form a protective wall around the lake, quacking incessantly*
Lithaladhwen: What do you want? If you're so disturbed, just go.
Molokidan
: Um...alright. *scampers off*
PsychoQuadDuck: *retreats away from the lake*
Molokidan
: (I have to go, anyway, that's why I was trying to end this...sorry.)
Molokidan: (I'll be back later. Bye now!)
Lithaladhwen: (Okay... I think AM was going to join in a bit)
Molokidan
: (Aw, darn.
Lithaladhwen: (come back!)
Molokidan
: (Well, I'll be back in an hour or so, if you still have some juice left in ye.)
Molokidan: (Until then!)
Molokidan has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: (shall we continue without him? AM said he'd come in)
PsychoQuadDuck
: (Yes.)
Lithaladhwen
: *dramatic shadowy exit, coupled with following of Clyde. She's polite enough to not be sneaky about it this time*
PsychoQuadDuck
: I should switch out of this stuff as soon as I get a legitimate chance.
Arch mage144
has entered the room.
Lithaladhwen: Why? Because it's hideous?
PsychoQuadDuck
: I donned it just to act one part in a presentation, and now at least a third of the city scorns me thinking I can fling around astral energy whenever I please.
Lithaladhwen
: Hm. *sheathes knife as she walks* Why didn't you change before?
Arch mage144
: You can't, of course. *voice from behind*
PsychoQuadDuck: I've been too bu- *turns around*
Lithaladhwen
: *turns to look*
PsychoQuadDuck
: (I probably should describe Clyde again, shouldn't I?)
Arch mage144
: (No, I read over Kai's shoulder)
Arch mage144: *it's a blue-haired man wearing a black overcoat with a green tunic and grey pants! Also, he has a very characteristic red hat with a feather!*
Arch mage144: For once, Myrnal, I snuck up on you.
Lithaladhwen: *sighs*
Lithaladhwen
: Ass.
Lithaladhwen
: How've you been?
Arch mage144
: Much better since I haven't had to worry about evil necromancers, rampaging dragons, and income tax forms.
PsychoQuadDuck: In order of increasing problems, then?
Arch mage144
: The second being a function of the first.
Arch mage144: You're dressed like that one guy. *raises an eyebrow*
Arch mage144: That was a horribly written play.
PsychoQuadDuck: It wasn't my idea.
Arch mage144
: And the reason I assumed you couldn't throw around astral energy on a whim...
PsychoQuadDuck: (Well, now that I know my joke's been identified...)
Arch mage144
: ...is that you're not me. *grins, bishounen hairflip*
PsychoQuadDuck: *sigh* Can we drop the ego at least? I don't care if it's true.
Arch mage144
: *blinks* Touchy.
PsychoQuadDuck: Look, I'm just too tired right now to handle it.
Lithaladhwen
: You're tired?
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Yeah, because no one else has been busy.
Arch mage144
: From acting in a terrible play?
PsychoQuadDuck: Well, one of my senses has been overworked.
PsychoQuadDuck
: Not just the play, mind you. It was afterward. We're talking a lot of fury.
Arch mage144
: ...a lot of fury?
PsychoQuadDuck: (Wait a second, which one of them did you associate with who Clyde acted as?)
Arch mage144
: (I misread that as "a lot of furry")
PsychoQuadDuck: I can sense it. But if I sense it too much, I get exhausted.
Arch mage144
: (I am immediately thinking of DBZ, and assuming he played a Goku-like character)
Lithaladhwen: (Same)
Arch mage144
: So people hated it?
PsychoQuadDuck: (Yeah, that's basically what it was.)
PsychoQuadDuck
: (For some reason I thought one of you were thinking he was posing as Yamcha. Which would work, mind you...)
PsychoQuadDuck
: It looked like it.
Lithaladhwen
: (No one does that. We did not assume such.)
Arch mage144
: Sorry. It happens.
Arch mage144: I've seen a lot of good theater and a lot of bad theater.
Lithaladhwen: Well, I wasn't there if it makes you feel better. I have no feelings about it at all.
PsychoQuadDuck
: It doesn't matter anyway.
Lithaladhwen
: Probably not.
Arch mage144
: *quirks an eyebrow* I see.
PsychoQuadDuck: Oh well. We can talk about something else, right?
Arch mage144
: I dunno. I mostly followed you through the park because I saw this woman here. *points to Myrnal*
Arch mage144: I never imagined I'd see her put so much effort into killing water fowl.
THENinjaRabbi has entered the room.
Thramkalith has entered the room.
PsychoQuadDuck: (Figures, everyone comes in about when I have to leave.)
Lithaladhwen
: Well. They were frightening some guy.
Lithaladhwen
: He was very bothered.
PsychoQuadDuck
: Well, I'm going to head home now. You two take care.
Lithaladhwen
: Sure.
PsychoQuadDuck
: *heads home*
Lithaladhwen
: *watches him and shakes her head*
PsychoQuadDuck
: (Off I go, then.)
PsychoQuadDuck
has left the room.
Arch mage144: Molokidan, wasn't it?
Lithaladhwen: I have no idea why it was necessary to fight a flock of birds, but it was something to do at least.
Lithaladhwen
: Yes, that was him.
Lithaladhwen
: I assume you know him?
Arch mage144
: Somewhat. You must be very bored.
Lithaladhwen: Well, I was on my way home, but I thought I would sit and relax for a while before I left.
Lithaladhwen
: And then there were ducks.
Lithaladhwen
: *shrugs*
Arch mage144
: ...and then there were ducks.
Arch mage144: It sounds like some sort of bizarre novel opener.
Lithaladhwen: (somewhere in the distance, a duck quacked)
Arch mage144
: (ARRRRGH)
Arch mage144: (Let's leave the awful Hemingway parodies out of this)
Lithaladhwen: (I... can't help... it)
Arch mage144
: (We're in a woodsy area near the park if anyone wants to know)
Lithaladhwen: So, what brings you out to the random pond of savage ducks?
Arch mage144
: I spend time in the park when I'm not busy.
Arch mage144: Or when I am busy, occasionally, and don't feel like doing work.
Arch mage144: I'm sure you can understand that.
Lithaladhwen: Probably would do the same thing. I've seen your office. I would want to get out of there from time to time as well.
Thramkalith
: ( I'm thinking... I can't decide whether to use the gun toating mercenary or the mage with a rather heafty obession for ancient knowledge )
Arch mage144: Why would you want to get out of my office!?
Arch mage144: My office is fantastic!
Lithaladhwen: It's hard not to touch anything. Drives me out of my damn mind.
Arch mage144
: Anyway, the park is also a great place to find bored adventurers who want to save the world.
Arch mage144: This is why I know which things it's okay to touch.
Lithaladhwen: Bored adventurers? You recruit people here?
Arch mage144
: I recruited one guy on the guard when he was urinating on a hedge over there. *points*
Lithaladhwen: Hm. That's considerably less dignified than meeting you in the Jade Dragon.
Thramkalith
: <Sonac Kershval>
Arch mage144: He had a hell of an aura. I wasn't going to let him run away.
Lithaladhwen: Run away? Was he on the move and you just had to catch him?
Arch mage144
: ...no, I mean, not going to let him get away without asking if he wanted to join the mage corps.
Arch mage144: I can't imagine he had a better job.
Lithaladhwen: Probably not. Well, now he has a better job and presumably better places to relieve himself.
Arch mage144
: Yeah, I figured that as well.
Arch mage144: I'm all for peeing outdoors, but you're right.
Thramkalith: ( The whether is decent, I assume, and it's about what time of day? )
Arch mage144: (Whether there will be weather is more important than what the weather will be.)
Lithaladhwen: (afternoonish, I guess. describe character?)
Thramkalith
: ( Sure, give me a second )
Thramkalith: *Along the path into the park walked a man of medium stature, he wore a hooded, light brown cloak, with purple triangles sewed along the edges, the hood was tossed back, and he looked about slowly, a monacle on his left eye.
Lithaladhwen: Well, I haven't eaten yet. You want to go get something in town?
Thramkalith
: *He walked with an almost even, but slightly destracted step, a rather large book carred under his right arm. He wore black leather boots, and, from what could be seen of them, matching pants under the cloak.
Thramkalith: *His face wasn't particularly striking, simple, but sharp features, his eyes were a pale blue, and he had a short shock of black hair.
Thramkalith: IM: It's a nice enough day to read in the park, I suppose. Things certainly have been unintersting since the last ruins...
Arch mage144: Food is good.
Arch mage144: Nearest restaurant is...that way. *points off into some direction*
Lithaladhwen: Sounds good to me. What do they serve? I mean, more specifically than food. IM: Can't be too specific with him.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: He'll go off on some tangent.
Lithaladhwen
: (For the people who got in here after we started, I'm playing this person --> http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/17163929/ Yay.)
Thramkalith: ( Yay indeed! )
Arch mage144: Oh, whatever. Chocobo breasts, soup, sandwiches, whatever. I'm a definite fan. It's run by some inustani immigrants, so they've even got some more exotic fare.
THENinjaRabbi: (Probably not RPing tonight. Homework. I'll probably try to dust off Kerov tomorrow though.)
Lithaladhwen: (aw.)
Lithaladhwen
: Lead on then. I don't know where everything is yet, so I couldn't get us there.
Arch mage144
: *walk walk walk walk*
Lithaladhwen: *follow!*
Arch mage144
: (I totally think we need more RPers)
Thramkalith: ( Well that certainly gives me a miss >_> I don't really have a reason to stalk you two... )
Lithaladhwen: (why not?)
Arch mage144
: (Unfortunately they seem to be in short supply)
Lithaladhwen: (you could ask about the huge swarm of ducks)
Thramkalith
: ( Well my character walked up, apparently, as you two were leaving... So I'm not sure we even managed to notice each other >_< Bad timing on my part )
CGNakibe has entered the room.
CGNakibe: (Rar? o.o )
Lithaladhwen
: (Allo.)
Lithaladhwen
: (They're leaving the park and heading to a random restaurant of General Silvar's choosing)
Lithaladhwen
: (and there was a fight with ducks at the beginning)
Arch mage144
: (A generic restaurant owned by some inujin near the park)
Lithaladhwen: So, you ever get around to finding a castle for the guys?
Arch mage144
: Finding? I had one comissioned.
Arch mage144: *commissioned?
Arch mage144: Having it built out east somewhere. A few hours out if you want to walk.
Lithaladhwen: Not right now. I have some things to take care of before I go see the boys again, but I'll be hanging around occasionally. Thanks for the directions, at any rate.
Arch mage144
: That's too bad. I'm sure they're going to enjoy their castle.
Arch mage144: Ardam was somewhat excited about it.
Arch mage144: ...then there was the demiplane I had to requisition for Gunnir for Yadali.
Lithaladhwen: The Druid? What did she need a plane for?
Arch mage144
: I dunno, she wanted one. It's not exactly a big plane.
Arch mage144: You could fit a house and a backyard in it.
Lithaladhwen: Sounds reasonable... I guess. I probably couldn't visit her even if I knew her, so I'm not all that worried about it.
Arch mage144
: Well, you could if you could travel the planes.
Lithaladhwen: I play with knives. That's about it.
Lithaladhwen
: Very little planar travel.
Arch mage144
: But planeswalking is fun!
Lithaladhwen: I"m sure it is, but I don't feel the need to do any more of it than I already have.
Arch mage144
: I see.
Arch mage144: I got lost in a plane made entirely of cotton once.
Arch mage144: That was weird.
Lithaladhwen: Yes. I can tell that it was. *looks askance at Gen. Silvar)
Lithaladhwen
: **
Arch mage144
: And all around me, there was this strange music.
Arch mage144: *whistles "Dixie"*
Arch mage144: Kinda like that.
Lithaladhwen: That's irritating. How long were you lost there?
Arch mage144
: I'm not sure. Perhaps a couple hours. That tune drove me nuts. Hammered into my head to this day, I'd imagine. I should get it out by writing it down, but I'm not a musician.
Arch mage144: And I'd have to invent lyrics.
Arch mage144: Something like "oh how I hate the land of cotton" or something.
Lithaladhwen: It's even worse with lyrics, General. Just thought I'd let you know.
Arch mage144
: Hmm, maybe I shouldn't add "musicial composer" to my list of titles, then...
Lithaladhwen: I would wait on it.
Arch mage144
: (Seriously, someone else get in here, Kai and I are sitting next to each other and we're having more IC dialogue than OOC discussion)
Arch mage144: (As in, er, with real voices and talking)
CGNakibe: (Mew. ;_; )
Thramkalith
: ( Heh )
Arch mage144: (She hands me crackers every once in a while though, which is good, 'cause I'm hungry)
Lithaladhwen: (mmm... saltines...)
CGNakibe
: (I have a big, BIG thurst... for HUMAN BLOOD! ^-^ )
Lithaladhwen
: Any other titles I should know about?
Lithaladhwen
: IM: This should be interesting.
Arch mage144
: Well.
Arch mage144: When I introduce myself to someone, it usually goes something like this.
Arch mage144: "My name is Hakaril James Silvar, Archmage, General, Astralist, Applied Magical Theorist, Planeswalker, Dimensional Cartographer, Elemental Specialist, Scholar, Metallurgist, Demon Hunter, Wyrmslayer, Personal Assistant
Arch mage144: to the Queen of Doma, and Improvisational Lawyer!"
Lithaladhwen: If you don't mind I'll abbreviate that to General Silvar. Hope you aren't offended.
Arch mage144
: I've fought with you in battle. You can call me Hakaril.
Arch mage144: You saved my ass a couple times.
Lithaladhwen: Sure, General.
Arch mage144
: Hakaril.
Lithaladhwen: I was saving my own ass.
Lithaladhwen
: Yours was incidental.
Lithaladhwen
: And you'll never be able to prove otherwise.
Arch mage144
: You could've left me to die on at least one occasion.
Arch mage144: *winks*
Arch mage144: You must like me after all.
Arch mage144: On that note, find a nice girl yet? You and that Yadali, for example? *smirk*
Lithaladhwen: I didn't really get to meet her.
Lithaladhwen
: So... no.
Arch mage144
: She melded you into her body at some point. I'd say that's pretty intimate.
Lithaladhwen: ...
Lithaladhwen
: I see.
Lithaladhwen
: The thing is, we were introduced at a rather awkward moment, so it doesn't really count.
Arch mage144
: When I met my current wife, it was fairly awkward as well, to tell the truth. She was reading a romance novel. My friend Daenj'r insisted that I should talk to her. She seemed disinterested at first.
Arch mage144: Then she realized I was hitting on her, and when I didn't laugh at her name, she decided I was the one. o_o;
Lithaladhwen: *shrug* I thought she was cute.
Arch mage144
: You have no idea.
Lithaladhwen: Seems like a nice lady.
Arch mage144
: Very nice.
Lithaladhwen: I don't have extensive experience with succubi, so I probably don't.
Arch mage144
: "Extensive?" But some?
Lithaladhwen: Sure.
Arch mage144
: Restaurant's right there. *points* Inside is a good place to be. *forges ahead!*
Lithaladhwen: *follows* Yes, there was a woman named Quinn. I introduced her to the guys as well. I think she made Rildyn uncomfortable.
CGNakibe
: *... and from inside* ... whaddya MEAN there's a wait tonight? You've got tables open. e.e
CGNakibe
: *grumble grumble* Yeah, sure, I suppose I'll wait. *grumble mutter damn idiots mutter*
Molokidan
has entered the room.
Arch mage144: (Yay!)
CGNakibe: (Hello Jin of Sushi... or something like that.)
Arch mage144
: *a very busy looking inujin approaches Shaun's char*
Molokidan: (Hoorah! Wow, many people came while I was gone!)
Molokidan: (What's going on right now?)
CGNakibe: Huh? Whaddya want? e.e *the man with the EXTREMELY SHORT temper in the Rivan armor apparently isn't impressed. Or anything more than pissed.*
Arch mage144
: I: Sir, I am very sorry, but...we'll clear a table for you as soon as possible! We are working our fastest! No es posible!
Arch mage144: (We're at a restaurant near the park)
Lithaladhwen: Oh hell.
CGNakibe
: Meh. Sure. Just don't take TOO damn long, okay? Gotta get back sometime BEFORE Rob destroys half the goddamn storeroom.
Arch mage144
: Richard!
THENinjaRabbi: (Holy shit, RICHARD!)
CGNakibe: Huh? >.> Hak? Funny seein you here, man.
Arch mage144
: I: *sighs* Dios mio. I work my tail off, and this is the thanks I get! Be right back when your table is ready, senor!
THENinjaRabbi: (I suddenly feel two years younger.)
Arch mage144: Why? I eat here all the time.
CGNakibe: *puts out a hand that looks like it could break bone*
Molokidan
: *saunters into the restaurant, looking around suspiciously*
Arch mage144: I would shake your hand, but I value my wrist.
CGNakibe: Yeah, but I don't. 's not often I get enough of a break.
Arch mage144
: And there's that suspicious fishy fellow.
Molokidan: IM: Man, all that running made me hungry! Now, the real challenge ... finding a cheap meal to eat!
CGNakibe: Heh. 's not my fault you're a little short on your warrior's training.
CGNakibe
: You know, if you ever wanted to be a Dragoon....
Arch mage144
: Not my job.
CGNakibe: Don't ask me, because you KNOW I don't know shit. *chuckles*
Molokidan
: *sits down somewhere in the vicinity of Hak and co.*
Lithaladhwen: General, who is this?
Arch mage144
: Inujin: Senor! Your table is ready now, this way, por favor! Is this your party? Your amigos come to sit down and have dinner with you?
CGNakibe: Eh. You mind joining me for a quick bite to eat, Hak?
Arch mage144
: He's, uh, an old friend. Warrior of sorts.
CGNakibe: Heh. Ya might say somethin like that.
Molokidan
: (Wait, so who's sitting down, and who's not sitting down?)
Arch mage144: I'm game. *points to the woman with him* This is Myrnal. She's a Ninja of the Fatal Claw. Mind if she joins us as well?
Lithaladhwen: Hi.
Arch mage144
: (We had to wait for a table. Restaurant is busy)
CGNakibe: Ninja, huh? -.o
Lithaladhwen
: *waves a little*
Lithaladhwen
: Yes.
CGNakibe
: ... never heard of em. >.>
Molokidan
: (Scratch that bit about me sitting down, then..)
CGNakibe: ... Well, other than the ones that CLAIM they're ninja comin in Dia's place.
Lithaladhwen
: Sounds like a personal problem.
Lithaladhwen
: Anyway, nice to meet you.
Molokidan
: *hears the word ninja mentioned numerous times*
CGNakibe: Heh.
Arch mage144
: *calls out to Molo* You there, Molokidan fellow!
Molokidan: *Shouts* Ninja! Where?
Arch mage144: I hear you have a duck problem! You should solve it by eating one with us!
Molokidan: *looks to Hak* !!
CGNakibe: >.> Uh oh.
Lithaladhwen
: I agree. They can't get you if they're dead.
Arch mage144
: I've never been afraid of something I knew I could order for dinner.
Molokidan: You're Hakaril, aren'tcha?
Molokidan: And...*spies Myrnal*..hey!!
Molokidan: You're the invisible lady from earlier!
Lithaladhwen: Hello.
CGNakibe
: Even if they could, at least you're on even terms. Can bite them back and all.
Lithaladhwen
: Yes, that would be me.
Molokidan
: What was your name..Myrtle....Merton....Mynock...
Lithaladhwen: I presume you escaped the ducks?
Molokidan
: Eh? Oh yeah, sure!
Lithaladhwen: Myrnal, Molokidan.
Molokidan
: I ran all the way to the other side of the city, then back, just to be safe.
Molokidan: Right, Myrnal!
Arch mage144: I think we can sit down now. *points to a frantically gesturing inujin with a towel over his arm*
Molokidan: Oh, you guys are eating dinner?!
Arch mage144: *he is gesturing to a table*
CGNakibe: I've heard the ducks near the castle can be pretty aggressive.
Arch mage144
: No, we're in a restaurant to do laundry.
Molokidan: Oh..
Lithaladhwen: I didn't find them all that intimidating. *sits*
Arch mage144
: ...
Arch mage144: Yes, Molo. We're eating dinner.
Molokidan: Well, I was going to go eat dinner, so I thought we could eat together...
Molokidan: Oh!! really? What a coincidence!
Arch mage144: *facepalms*
CGNakibe: Ducks must like you, miss.
Arch mage144
: Great Lord Agnostic, are you dense or what?
Lithaladhwen: I wouldn't know. I killed them.
Arch mage144
: *heads over to the table*
Molokidan: Hey now!! I don't know what you're trying to say, but...I don't like the tone! so there! *sticks out his tongue*
CGNakibe: *walks off to the table* Heh.
Arch mage144
: *throws himself into a chair casually and grabs a menu, perusing it rapidly as though he might, in fact, already know what he wants*
Molokidan: *follows them over to the table*
Molokidan: What sort of food do they serve here, anyways?
CGNakibe: Edible food, I hope.
Arch mage144
: Lots of generic stuff, soup, salad, sandwiches, but also some more exotic Inustani foods.
Molokidan: Inustani? Wuzzat?
CGNakibe: Likely not got the same "homey" quality of Dia's place, but hey, who does? *puffs up slightly*
Arch mage144
: Country to the south. A little geographically challenged?
CGNakibe: *totally not biased seriously*
Arch mage144
: I imagine it's also less violent and has fewer children running around.
Lithaladhwen: We can't all be planar cartographers, General.
CGNakibe
: Don't tell me you've been picking up MORE crazy titles, Hak. >.>
Arch mage144
: But then, it doesn't have a celestial barkeep. Or a sign that says "no fighting." Or a shadowdragonhalf owner.
Arch mage144: MORE? I had that one when we used to travel together!
Molokidan: *listens to Hak carefully, most of it flying over his head*
CGNakibe: Eh. 9.9 Must've missed it. You've got too damn many of em anyway.
Molokidan
: well, what food would you reccomend, Hakaril?
Arch mage144: I'd just not published "Hakaril Silvar's Planar Atlas, Volume I" yet!
Arch mage144: ...I'm going to go out on a limb and imagine you don't eat much fish.
Molokidan: Fish? I love fish!
Molokidan: Sushi is my favorite food!
Arch mage144: Oh, well. I guess that's another story.
Arch mage144: Um, the paella is good. Rice, seafood, big plate of it all thrown together.
Lithaladhwen: That sounds fine. Haven't had good seafood since I was in Nekonia.
Arch mage144
: I'm partial to chocobo fajitas.
Arch mage144: How was Nekonia, anyway? I haven't been in a while.
Lithaladhwen: They really know how to prepare it there.
CGNakibe
: Hm. >.>;;; *looks at the menu briefly...*
Lithaladhwen
: I enjoyed it. *gestures to belt*
Molokidan
: Did you see any neat monsters?
Arch mage144: *blinks* Red stripe now? Really moving up in the ranks, aren't we?
Lithaladhwen: It would seem.
Lithaladhwen
: As far as monsters.... those are pretty much everywhere.
Lithaladhwen
: You just keep your eye on those ducks.
CGNakibe
: Ain't THAT the truth.
CGNakibe
: Trust me on one thing, though.
Molokidan
: *looks down sadly*
CGNakibe: The only thing worse than monsters is kids. *sage nod*
Arch mage144
: Inujin: *comes over, holding a tray* Senior, senior, senior, and seniorita, can I start you with a refreshing beverage? Or perhaps you are prepared to jump into the main course?
Lithaladhwen: Well, I probably won't have to worry about kids.... so thank you anyway for the advice.
CGNakibe
: Got any Rivan wine? >.>
Molokidan
: I'd like a big glass of water please!
Arch mage144: Inujin: No, afraid not. Some nice Inustani sangria, though. And certainly, sir, water.
Arch mage144: Tea, iced. I imagine you don't have green, so black will do.
CGNakibe: ... huh. I 'spose I'll try that sangria, then.
Lithaladhwen
: Ale... whatever you've got would be fine, and some of that paella.
Arch mage144
: Inujin: Excellent choice, seniorita. Anyone else know what they want, or should I give you a minute more to decide?
CGNakibe: I've gotta say... I'm glad it's been relatively quiet up at the Jade Dragon lately. Actually get to do more SLEEPING when I wanna.
Arch mage144
: You can still find interesting people there.
Arch mage144: *points to Myrnal*
Arch mage144: Met her in the area when I was looking for people to do a job for me.
Lithaladhwen: *shrugs* You're the one who walked in and threw a hole on the wall.
CGNakibe
: You know it don't matter to me 's long as I don't have to show em th' door.
Arch mage144
: Ah, hell. Give me the chocobo fajitas, mainstays are always good. Anyone else wants anything, they can order it later, or we can just share. The plates're huge.
Arch mage144: Inujin: Absolutely, senior. Be right back with your beverages. *scoots off, returns shortly with drinks*
CGNakibe: Eh. I'll have what he's having. >.>
Molokidan
: I'll have the paella please!
CGNakibe: Although.. I guess I'm startin' to miss it.
Arch mage144
: Anyway, I'm glad the inn's still a great place to locate adventurers willing to work cheaply.
Molokidan: *grabs for his water and gulps it all down at a disturbing speed*
CGNakibe: After all, I was just getting my aim right.
Arch mage144
: Not that I stiffed you or anythin...damn, you drink like a fish.
Lithaladhwen: Impressive. Seriously.
Arch mage144
: IM: I guess he technically is one. Kinda.
Molokidan: I like water!
Lithaladhwen: I can see thatl.
Lithaladhwen
: that
Arch mage144
: ...understatement of the decade...
CGNakibe: Heh. 's like saying a dragon likes gold.
Lithaladhwen
: Or a Ninja likes knives?
Lithaladhwen
: *pats belt possessively*
Molokidan
: You're a ninja!?
Arch mage144: ...you have a lot of them.
CGNakibe: ^_^ Or a Rivan Dragoon likes fights.
Lithaladhwen
: *smiles proudly* I do.
Lithaladhwen
: I would work for knives. You keep that in mind.
CGNakibe
: *makes a mental note to check around about this whole ninja thing*
Arch mage144
: Uh, sure.
Arch mage144: Knives. Right. If I've got any lying around I'll let you know.
Arch mage144: I swear one of my old instructors had a knife that occasionally reversed gravity if you stabbed someone with it.
Lithaladhwen: ooh. Nice.
Molokidan
: *pokes Myrnal* Did you just say you're a ninja!?!
Lithaladhwen: Do not touch me.
Lithaladhwen
: And yes.
CGNakibe
: ... Are you sure your stuff is SAFE this time, Hak?
Arch mage144
: I unfortunately don't have it anymore.
Arch mage144: What stuff?
CGNakibe: You know, all that stuff you've made and stuff. *can't say it much more eloquently*
Lithaladhwen
: Why is that so hard for people to accept?
Molokidan
: What a coincidence!!
Molokidan: I'm a ninja too!!
Arch mage144: Inujin: *drops off four huge plates of food* Enjoy! If it isn't delicious, we feed it to the dogs!
Lithaladhwen: Well. Hurray.
CGNakibe
: *shrugs* Never seen one.
Arch mage144
: I: *laughs at some private joke and runs off*
Molokidan: What kind of ninjitsu do you study?
Arch mage144: ...I will never understand the inujin sense of humor.
Molokidan: *looks at the pile of food on his plate* o_o;; wow.
Lithaladhwen: Way of the Fatal Claw.
Arch mage144
: It's a Nekonian martial art, I believe.
Molokidan: Wow! I've never heard of that one!
CGNakibe: ... Hm.
Molokidan
: Wanna know what kind I study?
Lithaladhwen: Sure.
Lithaladhwen
: Enlighten me.
Arch mage144
: *scratches his head* Art of the Spaz Fishman?
CGNakibe: ... Art of the Crazed Weirdo?
Arch mage144
: *rolls a fajita, jams it into his mouth, and chews thoughtfully*
Lithaladhwen: *throws back some ale*
Molokidan
: Good guess!
Molokidan: I study Sushijitsu, the way of the Sushijin!
Arch mage144: But I pray it's wrong.
Arch mage144: *sips tea to wash down the food and blinks*
Arch mage144: That is the most redundant martial arts style ever, but if it works, more power to you.
Molokidan: It's an ancient art known only by my ancestors!
Lithaladhwen: *toasts him with her ale* Good for you, then.
CGNakibe
: .... riiiight. *stuffs mouth with fajita to avoid saying other things*
Molokidan
: *clinks the empty glass against her ale*
Arch mage144: ...and you, apparently, which leaves a bit of a hole in the idea, but...
Molokidan: Yeah! I'm trying to revive the style and teach other people!
CGNakibe: Hey, you can't knock the ancestors.
CGNakibe
: Too much.
Molokidan
: ._. but sometimes they don't want to learn...
CGNakibe: I mean, if they're anything like MINE, well.....
Lithaladhwen
: That happened to the guy my master was training before.
Arch mage144
: Hmm...that's too bad. It sounds interesting enough.
Lithaladhwen: My master kicked his ass and sent him off.
Arch mage144
: o_o;
CGNakibe: Young upstart, eh?
CGNakibe
: Heard about that. >.>;;;
Lithaladhwen
: You have no idea.
CGNakibe
: 's what happend to me, sorta.
Lithaladhwen
: I kind of felt bad for him though. He didn't hurt me or anything.
CGNakibe
: Worked out fine for me, though. Found a better callin.
Lithaladhwen
: He challenged me to a duel because I wouldn't sleep with him.
CGNakibe
: Thankfully, that guy from Baron... Whatsisface... Bah. I forget his name now. >.<
Lithaladhwen
: Shit happens.
Arch mage144
: o_O
Arch mage144: That must've been embarrassing.
CGNakibe: ... what? *half-cracks up*
Lithaladhwen
: It kind of was, especially when his master began beating him with a stick and then offered to train me instead.
CGNakibe
: That's gotta be one HELL of a way to get a date.
CGNakibe
: .... you know, that reminds me of Dia.
Arch mage144
: ...wow. I can honestly say I've known crueller teachers, but damn.
CGNakibe: Except she'd probably just plain eat the guy. >:P
Arch mage144
: Dia is goofy like that.
Lithaladhwen: Can't say I've ever met her.
Molokidan
: So, did he teach you all sorts of neat things?
Lithaladhwen: Uh... sure.
Molokidan
: Like what? o.o
Arch mage144: Probably how to kill people without being seen and a half a dozen ways to hold a knife while performing cartwheels across eggshells laid on rice paper without breaking them.
Lithaladhwen: A lot like that, yes.
Lithaladhwen
: Thank you, General.
Molokidan
: Wow...
CGNakibe: >.>;;
Lithaladhwen
: It was interesting. He never once had to beat me with a stick either.
Lithaladhwen
: I paid attention.
Arch mage144
: I figured I'd be exaggerating a little o_o
CGNakibe: And all I learned was how to do magic and our jumping technique. Finally. >.>;;;
Molokidan
: You have a jumping technique?
Arch mage144: He's a dragoon, Molo.
Lithaladhwen: I was wondering about it as well, but then I don't claim to know a whole lot about Dragoons.
CGNakibe
: *shrugs* Yeah.
Molokidan
: Oooooh!!
CGNakibe: *smirks* Makes us even, miss.
Molokidan
: I used to have some dragoon friends once!
CGNakibe: Really?
CGNakibe
: >.>
CGNakibe
: How'd you meat em?
Molokidan
: Hmmm...I think one fell on me one day!
Molokidan: He was a moogle named End!
CGNakibe: ... Oh. THAT guy.
CGNakibe
: 9.9
Lithaladhwen
: A moogle?
Lithaladhwen
: *shakes it off, preferring not to think about it*
Lithaladhwen
: Okay.
Arch mage144
: Oh, that guy.
CGNakibe: HE still owes Dia part of a new roof. e.e
Molokidan
: He was a fun guy!
Molokidan: I always respect people who can jump higher than me, and boy could that guy jump!
Arch mage144: I can imagine.
CGNakibe: Yeah, but having that guy nearly burn your goddamn shop down in a crazy snit doesn't exactly make him my favorite.
CGNakibe
: ...well, not MY shop but... aw hell, you know what I mean.
Lithaladhwen
: Property damage isn't the best way to build friendships.
Arch mage144
: Generally. But there was that one time...
Molokidan: aw, come on guys...like YOU'VE never destroyed a roof or window or something!!
Lithaladhwen: Just killed a bunch of furniture once. That's about it.
CGNakibe
: So, Hak. How DID you meet Myrnal anyway?
Lithaladhwen
: *looks over at Hakaril to hear his answer*
CGNakibe
: ... HEY, I haven't destroyed a roof in a LONG time.
CGNakibe
: ... and Dia still chews me out over the windows if I break em. >.>;;;
Arch mage144
: I met her in the Jade Dragon, as I said.
CGNakibe: Yeah, I heard you said recruiting. But recruiting for what?
Molokidan
: I met her by the lake!
Arch mage144: Mission. I guess it's all over now, so I can talk about it.
Arch mage144: At that point I just needed some cheap labor to go check out a wizard's tower on the outskirts of town.
CGNakibe: Damn. Wish I would've been at the Inn for that. Could've used the workout.
Arch mage144
: Somehow the whole thing snowballed into a situation involving a necromancer, a book full of all the knowledge in the universe, an artifact to enslave dragons, and a female wizard.
CGNakibe: .... Enslave Dragons? o.O Okay, now I DEFINITELY wish I was there.
Arch mage144
: Prismatic dragons.
Lithaladhwen: That's pretty much all of it, in a very small nutshell..
Arch mage144
: Big, bad, extraplanar dragons.
Molokidan: A FEMALE wizard! Wow, I want to see that!
CGNakibe: ... although I'm suddenly glad Dia wasn't there.
Lithaladhwen
: Yes, they come in women too, Molokidan.
CGNakibe
: *snickers*
Arch mage144
: Like, a baby prismat could cause trouble for a small army unit.
CGNakibe: ... and to think. We've had ENOUGH trouble with the few times Dia's had to go hunting. >.>;;
Molokidan
: Hakaril, have you ever killed a dragon?
Arch mage144: *looks thoughtful*
Arch mage144: *appears to be counting on his fingers*
Arch mage144: Um...yeah, I forget how many, actually.
Lithaladhwen: I think I only ever personally killed one that was already dead.
Molokidan
: Wow!
Molokidan: That's amazing!
CGNakibe: Hm.
Molokidan
: You should get a medal for that!
CGNakibe: Killed a couple myself. Baby stuff, though. >:\
Lithaladhwen
: Not really. It wasn't all me.
CGNakibe
: Not that I enjoy that, looking back on it.
Arch mage144
: I did.
Arch mage144: Maybe.
Arch mage144: If I didn't, I added it to my list of titles anyway.
Lithaladhwen: I enjoyed it because it was better than being dead.
Molokidan
: Neato...
CGNakibe: Difference in circumstances.
CGNakibe
: Can't say I'd like being dead either, but... eh. I suppose my relationship with Dragons has changed a bit since then.
Arch mage144
: Dragons are fine. Except if they want my marrow
Lithaladhwen: Your marrow, specifically?
CGNakibe
: I'm trained to be good at killing dragons. But that doesn't mean I have to like it. *shrugs*
Lithaladhwen
: I tried to pick a way of life I enjoy. I find that it's a good start at least.
Arch mage144
: Or any part of my body.
Lithaladhwen: Ah. So you're not extra-protective of the marrow.
Lithaladhwen
: I see.
Arch mage144
: It is inside my bones. I think I technically am.
CGNakibe: Making notes, are you? >.>
Lithaladhwen
: Notes? What are you implying?
CGNakibe
: *chuckles* Nothin right now.
Lithaladhwen
: What will you be implying later, then? *raises eyebrow*
CGNakibe
: Depends. How drunk will I be later?
CGNakibe
: Anyways, as for myself, I didn't exactly have much choice. Hak's probably heard the story before.
Arch mage144
: Probably.
CGNakibe: Dad expected me to be a Dragoon. Everyone in the family's been one. Hunting dragons, shit like that.
CGNakibe
: *shrugs* Funny that I end up right back where I started in the end, huh?
Arch mage144
: Funny indeed.
Molokidan: But don't you like being a dragoon?
CGNakibe: Didn't like it THEN. Now 's not so bad.
Arch mage144
: Being a dragoon isn't so bad. It's what you do when you call yourself that counts.
Arch mage144: I've met plenty of dragoons that weren't fanatical morons.
CGNakibe: Makes a big difference To get up in the morning and actually feel good about what you're doing.
Lithaladhwen
: I suppose it would.
CGNakibe
: Although it begs the question. How many of 'em were from back home in Riva?
Lithaladhwen
: IM: The last time I was in Riva we killed a village full of thieving bastards who stole MY KNIVES.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: I hate Riva, I think.
Arch mage144
: Not many.
CGNakibe: *sits back* And there you have it right there.
Arch mage144
: I'd say so.
Arch mage144: *finishes scarfing fajitas*
Arch mage144: *throws a few coins on the table* Should cover it. Unfortunately, I have to finish filling out a full report for Aya on everything that happened over the past month or so...
Arch mage144: ...trying to explain why I dispatched half the army to Ka'thalar is going to be fun...
Lithaladhwen: Wow. Good luck on that, General.
Arch mage144
: It's a good thing she likes me, or I'd never be able to get away with it.
CGNakibe: Heh. 'm surprised you get away with it NOW.
Arch mage144
: She's got a soft spot for dragons, obviously. That'll help too.
Lithaladhwen: It would.
CGNakibe
: ... can't imagine WHY.
Arch mage144
: "But I was trying to stop the evil necromancer from controlling the dragons! And there was that poor wizard girl!"
Arch mage144: Yeah, being a dragon certainly would make you sensitive to their needs.
Lithaladhwen: I'll probably head out as well. I'm about finished here, and I have to be leaving soon anyway.
Molokidan
: Take care, Myrnal!
Lithaladhwen: I'm going to pick up another bird though.
Lithaladhwen
: Damn Bixby torched my silver raven.
Lithaladhwen
: *shakes head*
Lithaladhwen
: *leaves money for her meal on the table*
Arch mage144
: *stands up* I'm sure he'll replace it.
Lithaladhwen: Nice to meet you guys.
Lithaladhwen
: Nah, he'll forget.
CGNakibe
: Stop on by the inn anytime.
Lithaladhwen
: I might do that.
Arch mage144
: You know I will. Too many friends work there not to.
Lithaladhwen: See you around. *leaves*
CGNakibe
: Heh. Which reminds me.
Lithaladhwen
: (and I need to go to bed! whee!)
CGNakibe
: If you've got the time, I think Dia was lookin into you teaching Solis a few things next time he swings by. That alright with you?
Arch mage144
: (Indeed, so I will be departing shortly)
Arch mage144: Ah, well. I can give it a shot. I'm sure he's willing to learn. Nice kid, Solis.
CGNakibe: Yeah. he is. Anyways, 'll see ya later, okay?
CGNakibe
: Probably not good to keep Aya waiting TOO long.
CGNakibe
: *chuckles* Might start chargin rental fees.
Arch mage144
: Bah. If she evicts me, she'll be out a General. Not like she'll do that.
Arch mage144: In any case, back to the plane of paperwork.
Arch mage144: *tips his hat, flips his hair, and exits*
CGNakibe: *puts down his portion of the check, and gets to goin* IM: Hm. Not too bad.
CGNakibe
: IM: Still could've been better with some PROPER wine.
