You have just entered room "afternoonofrp."
DeathRaySpleen has entered the room.
A Rockin SN has entered the room.
Lithaladhwen: Neb will be here in twenty minutes, she says.
Will Rennar has entered the room.
Arch mage144: Okay.
Arch mage144: Any character-related requests?
DeathRaySpleen: Dunno.
A Rockin SN: 2G!
Lithaladhwen: I can go for second gen.
Arch mage144: 2G is acceptable.
Will Rennar: Right...definitely gonna have to get a 2G character some time.
Lithaladhwen: I only have two, more or less. It gets tricky for various paradox reasons, but I could
pull something off if second gen is the request.
Arch mage144: Well, if 2G is overly complicated for 2/5 of the participants...
DeathRaySpleen: I'm all for 2G.
DeathRaySpleen: I can pull out Drew Fireblade.
DeathRaySpleen: Or 48-year-old Ake Tanner.
DeathRaySpleen: Or I can make someone new.
Will Rennar: *gets to work on said character, having an absurd enough idea
to use as it is*
Lithaladhwen: Hm.
DeathRaySpleen: I could produce Ake Tanner a child, of course. A daughter, maybe.
NYClark2 has entered the room.
Lithaladhwen: Yay. We get Clark.
Lithaladhwen: I invited Idran as well. Don't know what he's up to at the moment. He just
expressed some interest.
NYClark2: 15 minutes or so, and you haven't started yet?
Lithaladhwen: Nope.
Will Rennar: Haven't decided whether to go with 2nd gen or not. I'm the
only one with any kind of problem with it, due to currently not
having a 2G character.
NebbieQ has entered the room.
NebbieQ: (Yo. What's shaking/)
NebbieQ: (*?)
Will Rennar: *is in the midsts of solving that problem, and/or losing his
mind* Hey Neb. Relax, RP hasn't started yet.
NebbieQ: Hmn. Well, I think I can cook up something.
Lithaladhwen: I actually have complications with second gen, considering that one of my
characters can't really be in the RP with Brian's.
NebbieQ: How about first gen?
Lithaladhwen: Paradox of doom.
DeathRaySpleen: I was actually thinking about porting one of my D&D characters over to Gaera.
DeathRaySpleen: Probably my Scout/Tempest, Cole Camber.
NebbieQ: Folks, if you're ready and willing, I can set up some stuff for a first gen RP.
NebbieQ: It'll be in Doma, set in a lil' magical items and antiques shop one of my character's owns.
Lithaladhwen: I am plush and ready.
DeathRaySpleen: <joke>We could always RP in Elemaer, of course.</joke>
NebbieQ: Everyone else?
DeathRaySpleen: First gen is okay with me, too.
Arch mage144: A thing is good.
Arch mage144: I'm perfectly fine with that.
NebbieQ: Okay, so we have three people. Time to set up!
NebbieQ: <Brackets and parenthesis, ladies and gentlemen>
Lithaladhwen: (Neb, any characters you'd like to request for a thing?)
NebbieQ: (Any that you think would have a reason to go shopping.)
NebbieQ: (If they don't go for the fancy stuff, the store also stocks potions and general goods.)
Lithaladhwen: (Oh, always game for fancy stuff.)
DeathRaySpleen: <Andrew "Drew" Fireblade IX>
NebbieQ: *It's a blustery day in Doma city today. While the skies are clear and the threat of snow is nil, the
winds aren't nearly so merciful.*
DeathRaySpleen: (Oh, wait, wrong gen.)
DeathRaySpleen: (Blar.)
NebbieQ: *However, the citizens are sturdy, and there are things to be done!*
NebbieQ: *...not to mention the fact that some of the stores have a reputation for generous heating, should
their homes be lacking.*
DeathRaySpleen: <Andrew "Andy" Fireblade VIII>
Arch mage144: *being sturdy and nonporous, Hakaril is apparently relatively unbothered by the
presence of high winds*
Arch mage144: *and a simple enchantment on his cloak designed to repel the elements doesn't hurt,
either*
NebbieQ: *One of these is a store by the name of La Estrella Nueva, a store famed for its magical items,
exotic antiques, and unique clocks, not to mention some more practical items for those on a budget.*
Arch mage144: *this coat is a little different from the usual; in fact, it appears to be made out of
black bear fur*
Arch mage144: IM: Been a while since I've been in there.
Will Rennar: (So we're doing 1G then?)
NebbieQ: *Inside is a petite woman, with short brown hair and glasses. She's dressed plainly, wearing black slacks
with suspenders, a button up white shirt, and black collar with a grey gem.*
NebbieQ: *She's busying herself moving a rather large clock to one of the shelves...*
DeathRaySpleen: *Andy stands outside the door, reading the sign.* An antiques store. I wonder if they'd
know anything.
Lithaladhwen: (Yes.)
Lithaladhwen: (I sense impending font confusion.)
NebbieQ: *...while a more unusual employee flitters about, taking stock. She's a pixie with bright pink hair and wings,
brown robes with space cut out for the wings, and a surprisingly stern expression on her face.*
DeathRaySpleen: (Want me to switch to my default blue, then?)
A Rockin SN: (Hmm. Character suggestions?)
NebbieQ: (Potions are in the front. The next section has home goods and dried foods, followed by clocks, antiques,
and magical items.)
Will Rennar: (Right then. *puts Rodney on pause for the time being*)
Arch mage144: *Hakaril enters La Estrella Nueva, curious as to any new acquisitions*
NYClark2: ( Hakaril is nonporus? How does he sweat? )
Arch mage144: (Pores?)
NebbieQ: Ah, hello there sir, how can I-SONOFA....
Arch mage144: ...o_O What?
Will Rennar: <Ruby Bleu Orion>
NebbieQ: *It seems her grasp on the clock has slipped!*
NebbieQ: *Instead of residing on the shelf as planned, it is now residing on her feet.*
Arch mage144: *quirks an eyebrow* You break it, you buy it?
NebbieQ: *The pixie mutters and shakes her head, while the woman grits her teeth and lifts the clock up*
NebbieQ: ...that's...the general policy, yes.
NebbieQ: It's a bit moot in this case, but....
DeathRaySpleen: *Andy is about 5'9" and with a thin but wiry build. His movements are performed with
an agile grace, the grace of a warrior. Which fits, because he's armed.*
NebbieQ: *Sets it on the shelf.* At least it seems to have held up. ^^; How can I help you?
Arch mage144: (Who's the woman in question, Neb?)
NebbieQ: (That would be Neb Nueva, owner of this fine establishment.)
Arch mage144: (That's what I thought!)
Will Rennar: *A red-haired woman, in a robe that buttons up in the front
and two small, pink wings in the back, enters the shop, intently
looking at a piece of paper with some writing on it....a shopping
list, perhaps?*
NebbieQ: (Picture get!)
DeathRaySpleen: *At each side is a katana in its sheath, and a couple throwing knives are tucked into
his belt. On his back hangs a hefty double-sided battle-axe and a quiver of arrows with a bow inside.*
Arch mage144: That depends. I've been here before, but I was curious if you had anything new in
stock.
NebbieQ: *While Neb handles the mage, the pixie flitters towards the red haired woman.*
NebbieQ: *From above the woman's head* Do you need any help?
NebbieQ: Ah, we just got a new shipment in today, in fact! I was just getting the last of it...
Will Rennar: YEEP! *the woman snaps out of her deep concentration and looks
around for a moment, then spots the pixie* Oh....sorry about that,
you startled me..
Arch mage144: ...I hope it all made it to the shelf intact.
NebbieQ: *Blushes* Luckily, that was the only mishap.
DeathRaySpleen has left the room.
NebbieQ: *Soon, though, she's all smiles.* But, you can't let little mistakes like that get in one's way. Is there
anything in particular you're looking for?
Will Rennar: Well, anyway...I'm just finishing up some grocery shopping,
and needed to pick up some
Will Rennar: (Dammit, finger slipped, disregard that line!)
NebbieQ: Perhaps one of our new mantle clocks? We've recently acquired some with a heat enchantment, very
useful for warming your home in the winter.
Arch mage144: Hey, now that's handy. My office would be freezing if I hadn't started that bonfire
this morning.
NebbieQ: *Looks at her blandly, as one might observe a jittery child.* Don't worry about it.
NebbieQ: Well, come right this way...
Arch mage144: *nods and follows Neb*
Will Rennar: Well, anyway...I'm just finishing up some grocery shopping,
and needed to pick up a new dagger while I was at it. *she pulls her
own out of its sheath...most of it, anyway. The blade appears to have
rusted and broken off*
Lithaladhwen: (My computer is locking up, so I'm going to be a minute or two. I'm still here,
though.)
NebbieQ: *Leads him to the timepieces. Some of them seem rather bland, while others seem quite exotic...wall
clocks with black lacquer and gold trim, hourglasses with images dancing in the brightly colored sands...*
NebbieQ: Ah, here we are.
Arch mage144: Man. Knowing what time it is has never been so stylish!
Will Rennar: (Hmm, pixie and I may have font issues here. *switches real
quick* There we go.)
NebbieQ: *Grins, as she lifts up a small clock with a flat base and a rounded top. It looks quite similar to this!*
Will Rennar: I don't suppose you carry anything like that here, do you?
NebbieQ: *Flitters down, to take a better look at the sword.* Hmn.
A Rockin SN: (Any character suggestionsolasism?!)
Will Rennar: (Dagger.)
Lithaladhwen: (*picks a font that's somewhat different from the pairs of colors already being
used....though this could be a very pink RP.*)
NebbieQ: Sadly, we don't have anything to mend the blade...but we should have something to help take care of the
rust.
Will Rennar: (*chuckles* Indeed.)
Arch mage144: Hmm. Very basic, but very sleek.
Arch mage144: I like the lacquered models. *points to one of the gold-trimmed timepieces* How
much are those?
NebbieQ: *Below the clockface, there seems to be a very stylized engraving of a flame.*
Lithaladhwen: *Stores full of shiny things should never be surprised when teenage girls find
their way inside.*
NYClark2: ( Let's change that pink:other colors ratio a bit )
Lithaladhwen: (Here's the best image I've got so far... she's the cute little thing at the bottom with
the genki eyes. Also the saddish one on the left behind Brian.)
Lithaladhwen: ( http://www.deviantart.com/view/26066902/ )
Will Rennar: Well, I was looking more for a replacement, but if you can help me with that I can
probably get it fixed. *smiles*
Lithaladhwen: (Description incoming...)
Lithaladhwen: *She's a short girl of about seventeen, though she looks and carries herself like
she's younger.*
NebbieQ: That depends on the clock. This one, for example..
Lithaladhwen: *She has blonde hair that would cover her eyes if it could ever manage to lie
down on her head in an orderly fashion. (cont) *
Lithaladhwen: *She's wearing a bright red jacket and purple paisley pants, topped with a
brightly-patterned and occasionally-sequined scarf in her hair.*
NebbieQ: *Points to a large square clock. It has the lacquer mentioned, and gilded metal feet that look like dragon's
claws.*
Lithaladhwen: *People around her can see a couple of notable things hanging at her waist.*
Arch mage144: That is impressive.
NebbieQ: This has a special enchantment to make it sturdier. You can drop it down a flight of stairs, and you'll never
guess what happened to it.
Lithaladhwen: *One is a wooden flute, presumably there so she can play it should the mood
strike her.*
Lithaladhwen: *The other is a rather odd-looking whip covered in what might be razor-wire,
tipped with a small blade. It's coiled up where she can reach it, but out of her way when
she's just minding her own business.*
Lithaladhwen: (There. Fucking hell that's always an ordeal.)
Lithaladhwen: <Holly>
Arch mage144: Really? That's fascinating!
NebbieQ: While this...*gestures to a mantleclock similar to the one shown earlier, only with the lacquer and trim* Is
much simpler, and has no enchantments on it.
Arch mage144: *along with Holly is a drow dressed in midnight blue robes--he's also
prominently featured in the image Ash linked*
NebbieQ: While the quality is good, many find it bland compared to its brothers.
Arch mage144: <Xevan>
NebbieQ: *...well, there's something that might pique the interest of Xevan and Holly.*
NebbieQ: *In the corner, on the mantle, is a very large hourglass.*
Arch mage144: I think that in order to survive the ordeals of my office we might have to go with
the sturdier clock.
Lithaladhwen: *Totally goes to look at it. All the moving sand is kind of cool to watch.*
Lithaladhwen: *waves to Hakaril* ^_^
NebbieQ: *The base is silver, adorned with stylized spiders on the edges.*
NebbieQ: *The glass is dark blue and cracked, and the sand is pure white.*
Arch mage144: *spots Holly* IM: Who's she again?
NebbieQ: *Around it is a glass case, and on the pedastel, is a brass plaque with writing in several languages.*
Arch mage144: IM: Fantastic. It's that man who talks too much.
NYClark2: ::Out and about on one of his wanderings - he has a day pass, really - is James. And into the shop he
goes, to find whatever may be there.::
NebbieQ: *It might remind Xevan of some designs found in Drow decor.*
Arch mage144: Holly, why do you feel the need to attract the attention of everyone in the
store?
Lithaladhwen: Because I know him and he's nice?
Will Rennar: *glances up at the pixie* So umm, where would I find this rust remover you
mentioned? *glances about the store confusedly*
Arch mage144: *examines the hourglass* IM: A fascinatingly ornate timepiece.
NebbieQ: Right here, follow me...
Arch mage144: Yeah, something like that anyway. Her reasoning is remarkably sound.
LovelyJester has entered the room.
NebbieQ: (Things might be a bit slow, folk, due to multitasking)
Will Rennar: (Hey Lex.)
NebbieQ: (Yo!)
LovelyJester: (Yo.)
Will Rennar: (No problem.)
Lithaladhwen: (I am Holly!)
Arch mage144: *picks the dragon-footed clock off the shelf* I'll take this one. It's fantastic. I bet
Vixxy's going to love it!
NebbieQ: *Flies quickly towards some of the potions, and to a shelf bordering on the goods.*
NebbieQ: It's on the very bottom, in a round black canister.
NebbieQ: *Hak finds that the clock is a bit heavy.*
Lithaladhwen: *yawns*
NebbieQ: Alright, sir. Just follow me to the counter.
Will Rennar: *kneels down, looking at the bottom shelf, and pulls out a canister fitting the
description* This one?
Lithaladhwen: IM: I need to take a nap later. Slept in a metal chair. Not the most comfortable
thing ever.
NebbieQ: (One gil is worth 2 dollars, right?)
NYClark2: ::Starts looking around on the shelves::
NebbieQ: (Or is one dollar worth two gil?)
NYClark2: ( 50 cents )
NebbieQ: (Thanks.)
LovelyJester: (hmm. lex or may not join in.)
NebbieQ: This will be 950 gil.
NYClark2: Hmm... all sorts of interesting things here...
NebbieQ: *What section will he find himself in?*
Arch mage144: *lugs the clock over to the counter and digs around in his pocket* IM: Expensive
clock. But well worth it.
Will Rennar: (950 GIL!? GOOD LORD THAT'S A LOTTA MONEY! Tell ya what, how 'bout I give
you half a gil and you tell me when it's 5:00?)
Arch mage144: *counts out the appropriate amount of money* That should do it, right?
Lithaladhwen: *looks for something shiny to occupy herself...jewelry or the like*
NebbieQ: *And as Xevan (and perhaps Holly?) approach the clock, they are able to see what's written down.*
Arch mage144: *reads*
NebbieQ: "DO NOT TOUCH. IF YOU BREAK IT, YOU WILL BY IT."
NebbieQ: "~Sincerely, the Management"
NebbieQ: *Not only is it written in Common, it's also in Inustani, High Nekonian, a script that looks
flourishing-perhaps Elvish?, Demonic, as well as a few others.*
Arch mage144: IM: I see.
Arch mage144: IM: The policy here is quite clear.
Arch mage144: Holly, what are we doing here?
NebbieQ: *Counts it out.* This should do it. Would you like to take it home, or would you prefer to have it
delivered?
Lithaladhwen: Shopping. I told you that you wouldn't have any fun.
Will Rennar: *smiles* Thank you for your help, (insert correct gender pronoun here) pixie. If it's
alright, I think I'll just look around for a moment and then take this up to the counter.
NebbieQ: *And on a shelf next to the hourglass, Holy finds a strange silver armband.*
NebbieQ: *It's in the shape of a snake, with its fangs bared out.*
Lithaladhwen: *totally checks it out...to the max*
NebbieQ: *There seems to be a ruby inlay where the eye should be.*
NebbieQ: That is it, yes.
A Rockin SN: (Where can this tag be found? On the clock, or everywhere?)
NebbieQ: (Sorry for the lag, Xaq. x.x;-)
Arch mage144: Holly, we cannot afford such extravagances. ¬_¬
Will Rennar: (No worries.)
NebbieQ: Would you like to test out the balm, first?
Arch mage144: Oh, wow, you deliver! That's great, because this thing is really heavy!
Lithaladhwen: As shopping? *hands and mouth say Pffft* Shopping isn't expensive.
Will Rennar: Oh...didn't know you folks allowed that here. Umm...sure!
NebbieQ: *There's also a string tied to Holly's snake. However, there is no tag...how odd.*
Lithaladhwen: Buying things is expensive. I don't know if I'm doing that yet.
NYClark2: ( Sorry, had to answer the phone. )
NebbieQ: Just open it, and rub a small amount on the dagger.
NYClark2: ::What sections are there?::
TaiarKino has entered the room.
NebbieQ: (Potions, home goods and dried foods, clocks, antiques, and magical items)
Lithaladhwen: (Hey, Tai.)
TaiarKino: (Yo.)(
NebbieQ: (It's a shop! Stuff is sold!)
Will Rennar: *does so, being less careful than most about keeping her finger from the blade*
NebbieQ: A lot of people say that, yes.
NebbieQ: We can have it to your office by tomorrow afternoon, all we need is an adress.
OnlineHost: NYClark2 rolled 1 6-sided die: 2
Arch mage144: I live and work at the castle. Someone there can direct your deliveryman.
NYClark2: ::James has wandered into the home goods section::
NebbieQ: *The area where the balm is applied begins to shimmer, before the rust seems to...break off into dust.*
NebbieQ: *It evaporates, and the area underneath it looks brand new.*
A Rockin SN: *if there is a bell on the door, it shall go ding-a-ling!*
NebbieQ: *Dingle-dingle goes the bell!*
Arch mage144: What? *slight confusion*
Arch mage144: How does one shop and not buy things?
Lithaladhwen: *picks up the arm bracelet* IM: Kind of creepy but it's still nice.
NebbieQ: *Does Holly try it on?*
NebbieQ: *It seems to be just her size, too...*
Lithaladhwen: *No. It's not hers.*
Will Rennar: Hmm. Yep, I guess that'd be what I needed then. *closes the canister* Thanks.
Well, in that case, I'm just gonna go check out your magical items section, and once I'm
done there I'll go buy this. Thanks again.
NebbieQ: *...wait.*
NebbieQ: *Did that snake just wink at her?*
Lithaladhwen: *to Xevan* Do you ever look at things you don't buy, I mea--- *blink*
A Rockin SN: *as our resident crazy screeches in and stops just short of a shelf* Whoa!
Will Rennar: (DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNNN!)
Lithaladhwen: Xevan, could you look at this?
A Rockin SN: <D>
NebbieQ: *nods, and smiles at her* I hope you find something that piques your fancy.
Arch mage144: *sigh* *look*
Arch mage144: Could you perhaps tell me what I'm looking for?
Lithaladhwen: It winked at me. I don't know if that's normal.
NYClark2: ::What sort of things are in the home goods section?::
NebbieQ: It shall be delivered right on time.
Arch mage144: I imagine it's magically enchanted.
NebbieQ: *Parhcment! Dried mushrooms! Dried apples! Brooms! Dustpans! Jars!*
NebbieQ: *And some pans.*
Arch mage144: I should hope so. There's something incredibly ironic about a clock delivery being
late.
NYClark2: Wow... look at all this stuff!
NebbieQ: Don't worry, we try to keep irony out as much as possible.
Arch mage144: That's good. I'm not paying you for irony.
Lithaladhwen: Hm. Probably. I'm going to ask. It's kind of neat, but a little... weird for my taste.
NebbieQ: We tried banning it once, but that didn't work out as well as we expected.
NYClark2: ::picks up a pan and looks inside:: hello?
Arch mage144: Wait, you can ban irony?
Lithaladhwen: *looks for some kind of relevant store authority*
Arch mage144: I don't suppose you sell irony.
NebbieQ: It turns out you can't.
Will Rennar: *Ruby strolls over to the magical items section, perusing the shelves. While mostly
intent on finding a more ornate dagger to replace her busted, albeit less rusty one, anything
that strikes her fancy may...well...strike her fancy*
Arch mage144: IM: ...how would you do that, anyway?
NebbieQ: And only with a permit. *winks*
Arch mage144: An...irony permit?
Arch mage144: IM: Okay, no. That's just ridiculous.
NebbieQ: Of course! I hear you can get one at the guard's office.
NebbieQ: IM: Much too easy.
Arch mage144: *raises an eyebrow* Riiiight.
NebbieQ: *And hey, that pixie seems to be free now!*
NebbieQ: IM: ...oh ye gods, it's D.
Arch mage144: And all the best blacksmiths in this city forge weapons out of irony.
NYClark2: ::Puts the pan back and wanders around some more::
NebbieQ: *Seems to make a point in flittering away from him.*
Lithaladhwen: *approaches the pixie* Excuse me, I was wondering what you could tell me about
this one.
NebbieQ: Ah, I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that. We don't stock many weapons, much less those made of irony...
Arch mage144: IM: *internal facepalm*
Arch mage144: ...yeeeah.
A Rockin SN: *looks around, running his fingers along the shelves in a very risky manner*
NebbieQ: *Stops in midair, and looks at Holly* Oh, of course. Is there anything you'd like to know?
Arch mage144: Anyway, thanks for your help.
NYClark2: ::wanders over to Neb and Hak's neck of the store::
NebbieQ: Oh, it wasn't any trouble.
NebbieQ: Thank you, and I hope to see you around again.
Lithaladhwen: *holds up the snake* What is it, aside from an arm bracelet? Does it do anything
besides be arm jewelry?
NYClark2: ::Notices Hak too.:: Oh, hi Hakaril.
Will Rennar: (Back in a moment folks. Snack urge. *zooms downstairs*)
NebbieQ: *Is about to leave the counter, until she sees James* Is there anything you need?
NYClark2: Hmm? ::Looks to Neb::
NebbieQ: ...I think remember this.
NebbieQ: It's nothing more than a fancy novelty item, really.
Arch mage144: Oh, James.
Arch mage144: Are you here to buy a clock, too?
NYClark2: Ahh... wait... you are... do I know you? ::shakes his head::
Arch mage144: Novelty?
Lithaladhwen: It winked at me. Should it do that?
Arch mage144: No one should wink at you.
Arch mage144: *eyes narrow just a little*
NebbieQ: *nods* The mage who created it had a rather odd sense of humor.
Lithaladhwen: ...>_> I don't think it meant any offense, Xevan.
Arch mage144: I fail to understand the joke.
Lithaladhwen: What else does it do? Odd mages tend to make odd things in my experience.
NebbieQ: *Puts her hand to her chin, pondering*
Will Rennar: (Back!)
NYClark2: I believe I have met you somewhere before. You... No no... it can not be the case. But maybe... ::Looks
to Hakaril:: A clock?
NebbieQ: Well, it meant to act like a living thing. Sometimes it'll slither around for a bit, other times it will shake its
tail...
Arch mage144: Yes, that's what I wound up doing.
NebbieQ: (Holly and Xevan, a d6 please?)
Arch mage144: This store has an amazing selection!
OnlineHost: Arch mage144 rolled 1 6-sided die: 3
OnlineHost: Lithaladhwen rolled 1 6-sided die: 4
Arch mage144: Don't you ever want to know what time it is?
NebbieQ: Well, if there's anything I can do, just ask me or Qulam over there.
NebbieQ: *Gestuers to the tiny fae.*
NebbieQ: *Leaves the counter, and lets word of mouth work its wonder.*
NYClark2: If I ever do, I can just ask myself. ::nods::
Arch mage144: What? You always know what time it is?
Arch mage144: I didn't know you were a time mage.
Lithaladhwen: *blinks again in surprise and looks down at the bracelet* This--This isn't
dangerous or anything, is it?
Arch mage144: I used to ask Darin what time it was. He would wake me up in the morning for class.
A Rockin SN: (What is in the furthest shelves away from the others? :O)
NebbieQ: *Looks a bit perturbed, but shakes it off.*
NYClark2: Time mage...? No no.
NebbieQ: It...is perfectly safe. We wouldn't sell it if it wasn't.
NebbieQ: IM: What an odd man. Perhaps an old customer?
NYClark2: I just have a good internal clock, is all.
NebbieQ: Snake: *is perfectly still now*
NYClark2: Well, I do not know how good it is anymore. But, I manage.
Lithaladhwen: It's just... doing things. Little things. I didn't know if it ever, you know. Would bite.
NebbieQ: (The very back seems to be clear.)
A Rockin SN: OH MY GODS! ... Where are the thingies?! *D's yelling can be heard*
NebbieQ: I very much doubt it was enchanted to acutally attack.
Arch mage144: Internal clock? *raises an eyebrow* IM: It occurs to me how little I know about
James. What is he, anyway?
Will Rennar: *in a "to herself" tone* Hmm. Probably should've looked in a weapons shop rather
than here...still, this is some interesting stuff they have here...
Arch mage144: IM: He looks humanoid...
NebbieQ: *Cringes* Well hello to you too, D.
NebbieQ: IM: I better make sure he doesn't break anything...
NebbieQ: *Goes on over to him.*
NYClark2: You can easily go by the sun, right?
NebbieQ: *And the red haired woman notes something strange!*
NebbieQ: *A brown leather scabbard, small enough for a dagger.*
NYClark2: You do not have to be a druid to look up at the sky.
Lithaladhwen: You doubt it? Hm. Does it have a name?
Arch mage144: In theory, but sometimes I have to work indoors and it gets dark. I prefer not to
worry about things like the sun.
Lithaladhwen: IM: I can't help it. It's kind of neat.
Will Rennar: Oh? *looks at it a bit more closely*
NYClark2: Being underground can put a damper on that sort of plan though.
NebbieQ: *It has red embroidery, in fancy curlicues, and three ruby teardrops decorating it in a line down the
middle.*
Arch mage144: Holly, are you seriously considering purchasing that foolish device?
NebbieQ: No, although Neb is fond of calling it "Stav".
Lithaladhwen: How did it get that name?
NebbieQ: I gave up on asking why a while ago.
Lithaladhwen: Oh.
A Rockin SN: ... *turns to Neb* Oh, hey Neb. Where are the thingies?
Will Rennar: ...*chuckles as she looks at the teardrops* How perfect.
Lithaladhwen: *to Xevan* I might be. I think it's kind of interesting.
NebbieQ: *Shrugs* I assume it's a nickname for someone she's...not quite so fond of.
Will Rennar: (I'm guessing this is the "Don't touch. You break it you buy it" section, right?)
NebbieQ: (Yes!)
NebbieQ: *And hey look, there's a bit of paper tacked to the shelf where it is.*
Will Rennar: *glances at the paper*
NebbieQ: D, there are thingies all around us.
Arch mage144: *shakes his head* I see.
NebbieQ: There's no specific section for "thingies".
NYClark2: ::looks to D::
NYClark2: What sort of things were you looking for?
Will Rennar: (Clean-up in Thingies, Aisle 1-58!)
A Rockin SN: There are no thingies that way, though. *points to the clear section*
Lithaladhwen: Hm. There wasn't a tag for it. Did it just get lost or something?
NYClark2: There are lots of things here.
Arch mage144: IM: I know him. He needs psychiatric evaluation.
NebbieQ: *Worried about your blade growing dull, or having it face the elements? Worry no more!*
NYClark2: ::Points to the home goods section:: That section has some interesting things.
NebbieQ: *With this scabbard, your blade will stay sharp...in fact, sharper than it was before.*
Will Rennar: *blinks* ...This is so perfect it almost scares me.
NebbieQ: I'm afraid so. However, I can look up the price, if you wish.
Lithaladhwen: I'd like that, and whatever other information you have on it.
NYClark2: ( ::So sharp in fact, it will cut the very fabrics of space-time and reality!:: )
Will Rennar: ...Almost. *makes a note of which shelf it was on, then goes to find someone who
works at the shop*
Lithaladhwen: IM: If Stav is someone she doesn't like, I think maybe if I buy it I'll have to think of
a new name.
NebbieQ: *And, there is a price.*
Arch mage144: *looks thoroughly displeased*
NYClark2: ::Looks back to Hakaril:: Do you not have a good sense of time?
Will Rennar: *glances at the pricetag before going to find someone in the "I'd like to buy this"
way*
NebbieQ: *2600 gil.*
Will Rennar: .....Rats.
Arch mage144: Er, no. I'm honestly rather terrible about i t.
Lithaladhwen: Hm. That's quite a bit. I think I'll have to pass on... "Stav" for now.
Arch mage144: As I said. It is an unnecessary extravagance.
NebbieQ: (Actually, that was for the Scabbard.)
NYClark2: ::nods:: Some people seem to be pretty good at it. I think I used to be one, but I can not tell anymore.
Lithaladhwen: (Oh, was it? You didn't say you meanphone, you.)
NebbieQ: *Flies over towards the counter, and appears to be rummaging around for a bit.*
Arch mage144: ...how can you not tell?
NebbieQ: (._. )
Will Rennar: ...Come to think of it, I didn't even find out how much *glances at the canister* this
was...
A Rockin SN: Are there meant to be thingies that way? Cause there aren't.
NebbieQ: AHA! I HAVE IT!
NYClark2: I do not know... ::shakes his head:: I have been gone for a year, in a bad place. And it... well... I do not
know entirely... I think I have forgotten in order to stay sensible.
Arch mage144: o_o
Arch mage144: Where'd you go?
NYClark2: A bad place. You would not want to go there. No one would.
Will Rennar: (...On that note, I don't even know how much cash Ruby...or Wilren for that
matter...would start with. Sheesh...)
NebbieQ: (James: ...I had an internship at EA games.)
NYClark2: It... it... ::looks to Neb:: You...
NebbieQ: Just a moment, D.
NYClark2: You were there, were you not?
NebbieQ: Is something the matter, sir? o_o
NebbieQ: And, I'm not quite sure what you're talking about.
NYClark2: I am certain you were. Why did you say those things about me? Who are you? Did your brother really
think I was so bad?
Arch mage144: Er. Okay.
NebbieQ: I...don't know what you're talking about.
Arch mage144: IM: o_o Do I even want to know?
NebbieQ: I've never seen you before in my life. o_o;
Lithaladhwen: (Lost Brian.)
Lithaladhwen: *waits for a ruling on the price of Stav.*
NebbieQ: ...wait, you know Spob?
NYClark2: But you said... said... Spob... told you things about me.
NebbieQ: *Flitters over* It's 1,200 gil.
NebbieQ: That depends. Who are you?
NYClark2: I used to know him... we met a long time ago. I have not seen him in a long time.
Lithaladhwen: *yeah. I'm not scratching her previous statement.*
Lithaladhwen: *it totally still applies*
NYClark2: James Mandrew.
NebbieQ: *Looks a bit dissapointed*
NebbieQ: I was hoping you were...nevermind.
NYClark2: Were who?
NebbieQ: And that name does ring a bell....
DarkLordKelne has entered the room.
NebbieQ: ...someone who's seen him a bit more recently, that's all.
Will Rennar: *Tries to find the pixie*
Lithaladhwen: (We're in the Nueva store full of things.)
Arch mage144 has left the room.
Arch mage144 has entered the room.
NYClark2: Oh...
NYClark2: But what did he tell you about me?
Arch mage144: IM: Remarkably overpriced. I could craft something comparable.
NebbieQ: Hmn...you were on Pervy's crew, I believe.
Arch mage144: IM: My creation would be infinitely more practical.
NebbieQ: You helped them out a bit.
NebbieQ: *Is flittering near Holly and Xaven!*
Will Rennar: *walks over* Umm, excuse me....*gestures to the pixie*
Will Rennar: (Qulam, right?)
NebbieQ: Yes?
Lithaladhwen: Well, thanks for looking that up for me. I think I'll probably just go put him back
where he was.
NebbieQ: Did you find something?
NebbieQ: *nods* Alright, then.
Will Rennar: Well, yes, albeit a bit out of my price range, but that made me realize...I forgot to
ask you earlier...*holds the canister up* How much is this?
Lithaladhwen: *goes to replace the massively expensive snake bracelet*
DarkLordKelne: (Two lines and I already knew exactly who Brian was playing. That's the mark of a distinct
character, that is.)
NYClark2: Yes, a bit. ::shakes his head:: But I do not remember everything clearly anymore.
Lithaladhwen: (Heh. Xevan's hard to miss.)
NYClark2: ( Hey Kelne )
NebbieQ: I see...
DarkLordKelne: (Wotcha.)
Lithaladhwen: Well, Xevan, do you see anything?
Lithaladhwen: IM: 2 gil says no.
NebbieQ: Oh, that? 30 gil.
Arch mage144: Not that I wish to purchase.
Will Rennar: Ah. Thank you. Guess I'll just be getting this then....*sighs* That scabbard looked
so perfect, though.
NebbieQ: Oh? Which scabbard?
Arch mage144: IM: Okay, so, we've learned two things today. James is whacko and Neb Nueva sells
excellent timepieces.
NYClark2: What... did he tell you about me? If you remember.
Will Rennar: It had 3 little ruby teardrops on it, and the tag said something about keeping the
blade of whatever you put in it sharp.
NebbieQ: Not that much, I'm afraid. He didn't know you that well.
Will Rennar: It also said something about 2600 gil. Little out of my price range..
NebbieQ: He just old me that you were a quiet guy, and you helped him and Pervy out...a while back.
NebbieQ: Ah, that one.
NYClark2: I figured as much. ::shakes his head:: That is what really happened after all.
NebbieQ: Well, if you like, we can hold it for you for a bit....
NYClark2: It is what did not happen that I have to weed out.
Will Rennar: Oh, could you? I'd appreciate that. *smiles*
Arch mage144: So, Holly, what frivolous activity will we be spending the remainder of the
afternoon performing?
NebbieQ: How long would you like it held for?
Will Rennar: (How long would it take the average Gaeran to scrounge up 2600 gil?)
NebbieQ: (Depends. How well can they dance?)
NYClark2: ( Steady employment or no? )
NebbieQ: Well, if there's anything I can do to help...
Lithaladhwen: *frowns* I don't know. I thought maybe we could sit and complain about how
nothing is worth doing.
Lithaladhwen: Or maybe we could find another "frivolous activity."
Lithaladhwen: Anything you want to do?
Will Rennar: (Would you call being a fortune teller steady employment?)
NebbieQ: *Also, has Holly set down teh snake yet?*
Arch mage144: ¬_¬
Lithaladhwen: (Yes, more or less. She's putting it back.)
NebbieQ: (I wouldn't, unless she has some well off patrons.)
Arch mage144: No.
NebbieQ: *...the snake seems rather sulky, now.*
Will Rennar: (Then no.)
NebbieQ: *As sulky as a piece of silver can be.*
Lithaladhwen: *apologetic shrug to the snake* *w*Sorry. You're very expensive.
Lithaladhwen: IM: Weird jewelry in here.
NebbieQ: *Now the sulk has turned into a bit of a glower.*
NYClark2: Thank you... I am sorry if I seem... a bit strange at times. I am trying to piece my life back together.
NebbieQ: *Since when did jewelry think it had the right to throw a tantrum? Silver pieces these days...*
Lithaladhwen: IM: I'm not going to argue with the jewelry about how expensive he is.
Lithaladhwen: IM: I'm just not.
Will Rennar: Mmmm....*looks up at the pixie* Does holding an item require a down payment?
NebbieQ: ...I understand the feeling, actually.
Arch mage144: If you are so interested in acquiring some nice jewelry, Holly, perhaps I can
craft something for you.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, that's okay. You don't have to do that. But really. Is there something else
you'd rather do besides shop?
NebbieQ: That depends on how expensive or popular the piece is, and how long you want it held fore.
NebbieQ: *And now the snake has gone completely rigid, although it does have an unpleasant look on its face now.
Perhaps its the equivilent of a teenager holing himself up in his room.*
Lithaladhwen: IM: Now I feel bad for not buying it! It's not my fault I don't have that kind of
money.
Arch mage144: IM: *visions of vicious, bloody murder of drow by a Xevan who has clearly
ascended to lichdom*
Arch mage144: No.
NYClark2: Really? Is there anything I can do to help you?
NebbieQ: Oh, no, I'm fine right now.
Lithaladhwen: *sighs* IM: I'm too tired to force Xevan to have fun.
Will Rennar: Ah. Well, in that case, I probably shouldn't...can't afford to waste too much money
right now. Oh well, maybe next time It'll still be here.
NebbieQ: ...actually, wait, there might be something.
Lithaladhwen: Well.... why did you come if you aren't interested in doing anything?
NYClark2: Hm?
NebbieQ: A few people have gone missing lately, and well...I was wondering if you knew anything.
Lithaladhwen: Are you still mad about last night?
NebbieQ: *nods* Perhaps.
Arch mage144: No.
NebbieQ: Good luck with your...situation.
Arch mage144: Although you still have not satisfactorily explained why you did not return to
our current place of residence.
Will Rennar: Thank you.
NYClark2: A few days back, Dan and I and some other people, including a Miss Bear, fought this monster who
turned people into animals, like dogs and cats and things.
Lithaladhwen: *sighs*
Lithaladhwen: (Hee. Miss Bear. She'd like that.)
NYClark2: We stopped her though.
NebbieQ: I'm...not quite sure how useful this is.
Lithaladhwen: I was staying with a friend.
NebbieQ: This happened a few months back, during the spring.
Will Rennar: *walks over to the...uhh...place you make purchases?*
NYClark2: Ahh... sorry, I was still missing myself at that time.
NebbieQ: A few people went missing...Spob Nueva, that's my brother, he sticks out like a sore thumb...
Arch mage144: How was I to know that?
NebbieQ: ...just a moment.
Lithaladhwen: I'm sorry! I couldn't leave or I would have told you where I was!
NebbieQ: *Is about to walk to the counter, until she sees that someone else is on it.*
NebbieQ: Right this way...
Arch mage144: I faltered in my duties by not accompanying you last night. I am at least partially
to blame.
NebbieQ: *Flitters over to the counter, right after the customer.*
NebbieQ: Just set the money down, and I'll count it out.
NebbieQ: ...anyways.
Lithaladhwen: *facepalm* Xevan, I'm fine. Everyone is fine. You don't have to be like that about
it.
NebbieQ: He went missing with Tareen-that's a child we've been watching over for a while. Enlil and Janda Pervis
also went missing, as well as Idran Cosmosis and Will baseton.
Will Rennar: Alright. *pulls a small handful of Gil out, counts out 30, sets that on the counter*
Lithaladhwen: One of my friends was hurt and I stayed with him to make sure he was okay.
Lithaladhwen: It's not a big deal.
NebbieQ: If you need me to describe any of them to you, just ask.
Arch mage144: Someone I know?
NYClark2: ...
Lithaladhwen: Kind of. You met Ardam.
Lithaladhwen: We were at Sorune's house.
NebbieQ: *Stands on the counter and counts it out, like one would count a high stack of boxes.*
Will Rennar: (Question....would Neb happen to be in earshot over at the counter right now?)
NYClark2: ::Something seems to change in James' demeanor::
NebbieQ: Well, this seems to be enough.
NebbieQ: (Nope, not right now. It's just Qulam.)
Arch mage144: ...Ardam?
A Rockin SN: *goes to the counter and decides to start thumbing over items over there*
Lithaladhwen: What?
NYClark2: Ahh...
NebbieQ: *D finds her cream, and some broken watches.*
Arch mage144: *derisive snort* Nothing.
Will Rennar: *glances up at D* Oh, hello.
NebbieQ: ...Do you...happen to know anything?
Lithaladhwen: What? Come on, what?
NebbieQ: IM: Please say you know something, please...
Lithaladhwen: What's wrong now?
Arch mage144: Nothing is wrong.
NebbieQ: *Is beginning to look a bit desperate.*
A Rockin SN: Ooh. What sort of cream does Miss Nueva use? *checks*
Arch mage144: But that doesn't mean I necessarily approve of your new friend.
NYClark2: ::holds his face in his hands:: I am sorry...
NebbieQ: *There is no label, sadly.*
NebbieQ: It's not something she uses, it's for rust.
Will Rennar: Umm...that would be mine, actually...*holds out her dagger, pointing to the portion
that no longer has rust on it*
Lithaladhwen: *crosses her arms* What's the matter with Ardam?
NebbieQ: Is something wrong?
NYClark2: I am sorry. There is no looking to the sun for us today.
NYClark2: ::Slumps to the floor::
Arch mage144: I do not think he is entirely trustworthy.
NebbieQ: ...pardon me?
Arch mage144: How did he become injured?
NebbieQ: Oh my gods...
NebbieQ: *Kneels down, and begins shaking him.* Please, get up...
Lithaladhwen: ...Bear. He didn't want to kill it, so he ended up kind of... injured. I was at Sorune's
house when he showed up.
NebbieQ: IM: Did he faint? Please tell me he didn't faint...there's no way I could carry him to a healing house by
myself....
Lithaladhwen: *glance to James*
Arch mage144: You honestly believe he was unable to kill a simple bear?
Lithaladhwen: IM: Who's that?
NYClark2: If you swallowed a fish whole, how would that make me feel? Take your ideology down the street for
lunch.
Arch mage144: ...*looks at the collapsed James*
Lithaladhwen: Hold on, Xevan. It's not important. Ardam is fine and so am I.
Arch mage144: Whoa, James? You alright?
NYClark2: ::He is sitting on the floor, sorry::
Lithaladhwen: *goes over to James* Are you okay?
Lithaladhwen: *crouches down to the talk more on his level*
Will Rennar: *resheaths her dagger* Well, thank you..
NebbieQ: Si-James, are you alright?
NebbieQ: Here, let me help you get up...
NYClark2: ::curls his fingers and looks over his knuckles at Holly and the others::
Lithaladhwen: ...
NebbieQ: It...wasn't any trouble...
NebbieQ: ...have a nice day.
NebbieQ: *Looks over towards the scene James is making.*
Will Rennar: ...Is something wrong? *looks in the direction Qulam's looking*
NebbieQ: ...maybe we should give him some space.
NebbieQ: Everyone, get away from him.
NYClark2: They took me to a leave of absence.
NebbieQ: *Stands up.*
NebbieQ: I don't know...
Arch mage144: *stands back*
Lithaladhwen: *steps back*
Arch mage144: *watches distantly*
NebbieQ: *Is stepping back.*
A Rockin SN: wAIT...
NYClark2: ::Looks to Holly:: Hi... I do not know you. The latest clockwork innovation is retracing your steps.
A Rockin SN: *Wait...
NebbieQ: *...and is about to fly closer* What is it, D?
NebbieQ: *Sounds rather annoyed.*
A Rockin SN: *ponder* A cream for rust? And here I thought I found her moisturizer or something. *seems to
ponder*
Lithaladhwen: Hi. I'm Holly. *ignores the weird word salad* Sorry, I was just worried. Are you
going to be okay?
NYClark2: ( D: Someone is crazier than me? Inconcievable! )
Will Rennar: *pockets the canister, glances at D* IM : ...Weirdo...
Arch mage144: IM: There is something wrong with this guy.
NebbieQ: *Twitches* Now's not the time for that.
NebbieQ: IM: ...wait, I know her...
NebbieQ: *Is watching Holly handle him.*
A Rockin SN: Wait, something improtant's going on? *blinks*
NYClark2: Hi Holly. I was gone on what no one would call a Hollyday. I think someone is coming back.
Will Rennar: *points over at the commotion* I'd say so.
Arch mage144: IM: ...what the hell?
Lithaladhwen: ...Oh. Well, do you need help standing up? *offers a hand*
Arch mage144: IM: ...what the hell?
Lithaladhwen: IM: Not questioning it. That won't help.
Arch mage144: *takes a moment to check out James' aura*
NYClark2: Oh, I can not stand up yet. They might see me.
NebbieQ: *nods* It seems to be calming down, though.
NebbieQ: IM: Who's watching?
NYClark2: ::I don't know how to answer that... IM time::
A Rockin SN: *turns around, his expression more serious* What happened?
Lithaladhwen: Oh. Well, um. You're in a walkway at the moment. Do you want to go sit over
there? I'll sit with you if it'll make you feel better.
Will Rennar: Umm, from what I can gather, that gentleman there collapsed or something...
NebbieQ: Here, I can go get a chair...
NebbieQ: *Goes off to the antique section.*
NebbieQ: Hopefully, that's all.
NebbieQ: (argh, brb)
NYClark2: Why do they find me so abhorrent?
NYClark2: ::Covers his eyes again, and shakes his head a bit::
Lithaladhwen: I don't know. I don't know who "they" are. Let's go sit down over there, okay?
NYClark2: I can not say who they are... They might find me.
NYClark2: ( They might be giants. )
Will Rennar: (OMGTRIANGLEMAN!?)
Lithaladhwen: That's okay. You don't have to say anything if you don't want to. But I'll sit with
you until you're feeling better, okay?
Lithaladhwen: (Triangle man hates Reploid Man.)
Arch mage144: IM: Okay, now that's interesting.
NYClark2: ( But Reploid Man beats him and takes his weapon. )
Arch mage144: What are you babbling about?
Arch mage144: Who are you, and why can you not speak sense?
Will Rennar: (Then, in his victory dance, lands on a spiek and goes
PEW-PEW-Pew-pew-pew-pew-pew!)
Lithaladhwen: >.o IM: I think that Xevan might not be able to help here.
NYClark2: Thank you Holly. ::looks to Xevan:: You seem grumpy... like my brother.
NYClark2: I miss him.
NYClark2: He would know what to do. But I do not know where he went.
Arch mage144: IM: This is absurd.
Arch mage144: I am not...grumpy.
Will Rennar: *walks over, checking to see if she can help any, though only getting close
enough to hear*
NYClark2: We vanished for a year, and when we came back. We were not the same. Look at me... Am I so bad? Is
evil seeping from my very skin?
Lithaladhwen: IM: Yes, you are, Xevan.
Lithaladhwen: No. I don't think so. You don't seem evil to me.
NYClark2: Why do they hate me? I thought I knew them well.
Lithaladhwen: Just.... upset. That's very different.
Lithaladhwen: *sits down out of the walkway and pats the floor next to her, indicating that this a
good James-location*
NYClark2: ::Looks at her over his knuckles again::
Arch mage144: (It's a pity no one here can cast "detect evil" and get some evidence on that
theory.)
NYClark2: ::And slowly slides over there::
Arch mage144: *quirks an eyebrow*
Lithaladhwen: Thanks. What's your name?
NYClark2: James
DarkLordKelne: (Or we could test another theory with "detect grumpiness".)
Lithaladhwen: Hi, James. *smile*
Lithaladhwen: Nice to meet you.
NYClark2: They used to call me that with a smile. And I thought it was sincere.
Arch mage144: *looks at Holly like he clearly thinks that this is a waste of time*
A Rockin SN: *waaatch*
Lithaladhwen: *looks at Xevan like she's daring him to bitch*
NYClark2: Nice to meet you too Miss Holly.
Lithaladhwen: Holly is fine. You don't have to call me Miss Holly.
NYClark2: Sorry I am being so unsensible... but it is hard to forget things.
NebbieQ: (I'm back.)
Arch mage144: *grits his teeth and hardens his facial expression, no longer looking at Holly*
NebbieQ: (Can we pause for a bit so I can catch up?)
NYClark2: ( Ok )
Lithaladhwen: (Sure. And take that, Xevan!)
Will Rennar: (DIDL-LIDL! *that would be the "Pause" Sound Effect from SMB1* )
A Rockin SN: *and thus, D shakes his head and leaves. Oh dear.*
A Rockin SN: (i'd pause, but Dan needs his sleep.)
NebbieQ: (G'night, Dan!)
A Rockin SN: (He's beautiful already, but he's just tired. =D)
NebbieQ: (Sorry I didn't do much for it.)
A Rockin SN: (No prob)
NebbieQ: (Pah. Arrogant Maltese!)
TaiarKino: (...Mame-chishiki!)
NebbieQ: (Anyways, caught up!)
Will Rennar: (DIDL-LIDL!)
NYClark2: ( Unpause )
NebbieQ: *And Neb finally comes back, hoisting a dark blue, overstuffed ottoman.*
Will Rennar: *looks over at Neb* You need a hand with that?
Lithaladhwen: You're not that insensible. You're fine.
NebbieQ: That'd be...nice....
Will Rennar: *grabs hold of it* Oof...I see what you mean. o.o
Lithaladhwen: IM: Hard to forget things. Hm.
NebbieQ: Thanks.
Lithaladhwen: *tilts her head and examines him a bit*
NebbieQ: Here, lets get it over near them...but not too close. He still needs air, I think.
Will Rennar: *nods* True.
Will Rennar: *glances at James* IM: Poor guy...wonder what happened?
NebbieQ: On three, we set it down. Ready?
Lithaladhwen: It can be hard to forget things. But sometimes talking about them helps. Do you
want to?
NebbieQ: *Stops about two feet from James and Holly.*
NebbieQ: One...two....
NYClark2: Some things never happened, apparently. But how can I tell? Everything felt real.
Arch mage144: IM: Excellent. Holly is going to play psychologist.
NebbieQ: Three. And set it down softly.
NebbieQ: *Does so!*
Will Rennar: *eases her end of it down*
NYClark2: I cared about them and they told me they hated me.
Lithaladhwen: *notes the ottoman thingie* Oh, is that for us?
NebbieQ: *nods*
Lithaladhwen: *starts and looks over at James*
NebbieQ: ...here, I'll get out of your way.
NebbieQ: *Steps back once more.*
NYClark2: So many people. People I do not even know. People like her. ::points to Neb::
Lithaladhwen: Here. Let's sit somewhere more comfortable.
Lithaladhwen: IM: Oh, James I'm so sorry.
Will Rennar: *steps back along with Neb* ...Doe sne know you?
Will Rennar: *Does he
NebbieQ: I...don't know.
NYClark2: Where did she come from back then? To tell me so many dark things.
Will Rennar: ("Doe sne"?)
NebbieQ: He says he saw me, but I've never seen him.
NebbieQ: IM: *sighs* Poor guy...
NYClark2: But the ones I knew the best! That was the worst.
NebbieQ: IM: But who would do this? Who would have this sort of grudge against him, but still know me?
NYClark2: The one I loved... Where did she go from me? Was I wrong?
NebbieQ: IM: ...maybe he came back from where Spob and the others dissapeared to?
Arch mage144: IM: If he so much as moves to assault her I will reduce him to dust.
Lithaladhwen: (XD)
Will Rennar: IM: Lost love...that's got to hurt.
Lithaladhwen: (That's is a bizarre concern.)
Lithaladhwen: (That is so fucking bizarre and unreasonable.)
NYClark2: ( What is? )
NebbieQ: (Xevan: BEAM FROM THE EYES!)
Lithaladhwen: (Xevan=Robo-ky.)
NYClark2: ( Heh. )
Lithaladhwen: (James is the most threatening man EVAR.)
NebbieQ: (...Brian! You now need an AIM icon of Xevan dancing.)
NYClark2: ( He is a quivering ball on the ground, practically. )
Lithaladhwen: *pulls James up on the ottoman so the floor doesn't hurt both of their backsides*
NYClark2: ::James is very heavy::
Lithaladhwen: Come here. You're all right.
NYClark2: ::Some people have told him::
Lithaladhwen: *He can resist if he wants. She is attempting to let him know that there are places
to sit besides the floor.*
NYClark2: ::So he moves along at her arm's force's suggestion of motion::
Lithaladhwen: IM: Cripes. Heavy man. I just want him to sit down.
TaiarKino: (...Sitting on floors are comfortable, don't let anyone fool you.)
Will Rennar: Need a hand with him, ma'am? IM: He can't be any heavier than that thing.....can
he?
NebbieQ: (It's the law of Sci Fi, Fantasy, and Anime cons!)
Arch mage144: *stoic silence*
NebbieQ: IM: Should I...no. I'd just make things worse for him.
NYClark2: ::Is now on the Ottoman::
NebbieQ: IM: ...maybe I'll talk to him, when he's calmer. But not today.
Will Rennar: ....I'll take that as a no. *smiles softly*
NYClark2: She mentioned some of them.
Lithaladhwen: He's okay. We're fine. Thank you, though.
NYClark2: That is what did it... They will find me. I know they will.
NYClark2: Vengeful ghosts, them.
Lithaladhwen: Vengeful ghosts? James, no one is going to hurt you.
Lithaladhwen: You're safe here.
Will Rennar: *raises an eyebrow*
NYClark2: They have already tried to kill me.
Lithaladhwen: Well, that's not going to happen right now.
Lithaladhwen: No one here wants anything bad to happen to you. You're safe here.
Arch mage144: What she says is correct.
Arch mage144: IM: For now.
NYClark2: I can not even say their names. Their very names are enough of a bane to me. They used to be my closest
friends.
Lithaladhwen: You don't have to say anything you don't want to. But we're here and no one is
going to let anything happen to you.
NYClark2: I spent a year there, and they all gathered around me... and condemned me. What was my crime?
Lithaladhwen: I don't know, James.
Will Rennar: (...Crap. Gotta reboot my connection. Stupid 12-hour limit.....*makes a log*)
NYClark2: You... ::points to Neb:: You said I had no emotions... that I was cold and unfeeling. Why?
Will Rennar has left the room.
NebbieQ: *Quietly* I never, ever said that.
Arch mage144: IM: This man is clearly insane.
NebbieQ: If you thought I did...it was a trick. Some sort of illusion.
NebbieQ: IM: Or he's delusional...
NYClark2: Look at me now? Is this devestation not enough proof?
NYClark2: Kumo told me that it was an illusion...
NYClark2: Memoria. A kingdom of illusions. A land of painful falsehoods.
NebbieQ: ...memoria, you said?
NebbieQ: IM: Oh my gods....
Will Rennar has entered the room.
NYClark2: Memoria he said.
DeathRaySpleen has entered the room.
NebbieQ: *Well, it looks like our dear Ms. Nueva has seen a ghost.*
NYClark2: And it was an entire year!
Arch mage144: *quirks an eyebrow* IM: Fascinating.
DeathRaySpleen: (Sorry! Internet died something fierce!)
Will Rennar: (Sorry about that. Did I miss much?)
Lithaladhwen: ...
NebbieQ: I...I know this place. I've been there before.
NYClark2: A year... within the very fires of hell. The waters of the murky depths. The emptyness of the universe. And
the pain of betrayal.
NYClark2: You have?
NYClark2: Then maybe you met yourself there.
NYClark2: I met you there. And you already know what you said.
Lithaladhwen: *stares at James*
NebbieQ: ...I have been there, yes.
NebbieQ: And I've seen some very confusing things there.
NYClark2: Dreadful things.
Will Rennar: IM: Whatever this "Memoria" is, sounds awful...
Lithaladhwen: IM: That sounds like it's related to the plane of dreams. Only vastly more horrific.
NebbieQ: IM: And I thought I had it bad down there...
NYClark2: What did you see down there?
NYClark2: Loved ones... not the way they should be.
NebbieQ: *nods* And people that aren't even supposed to be around anymore.
NebbieQ: And memories...acted out by people who aren't even real.
NYClark2: Yes, I saw End down there. He was already dead.
Lithaladhwen: *watches the two of them*
NebbieQ: That's something you have to remember. If you heard anybody say something to you...it wasn't real. They
weren't real.
Lithaladhwen: IM: Maybe she can help. Having someone else who was there... maybe that will
make it easier for him.
NYClark2: Kumo tells me that. I try to remember that.
Arch mage144: IM: This has nothing to do with me.
Arch mage144: IM: Or with Holly.
NebbieQ: *Walks closer.* He's right, you know.
NYClark2: But it was a long time to be around the falsehood.
NebbieQ: Keep on listening to him. That place..it's like it tries to trick you.
CGNakibe has entered the room.
Will Rennar: (Hi Shaun.)
NebbieQ: You're away from it now, and that'st he important thing.
NebbieQ: Look at me. I can honestly, completely say that I don't hate you. Noone does.
NYClark2: It wanted me to die, she had wings and I thought I knew her well.
NebbieQ: Whoever she was, it...it wasn't the real her.
NYClark2: You know her.
NebbieQ: Who is she?
NYClark2: You know them both.
NebbieQ: Are you talking about Enlil? About Janda?
NYClark2: Ce...Cer... no no I can not say it.
NebbieQ: IM: Cervante. He knew Cervante.
NYClark2: Her too! She prosecuted me.
NebbieQ: That wasn't her!
NYClark2: The whole world put me on trial. It was a shameful day.
NYClark2: What did I do to the world?
NebbieQ: Nothing. You didn't do a thing.
Lithaladhwen: No one here hates you, James.
NYClark2: I loved Cervant. I remained devoted to her despite her difficulties... I never told anyone... I never told
them.
NYClark2: But I had to keep the secret so long. It wore me down.
NebbieQ: We believe you.
NebbieQ: And she...she doesn't hate you.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, James. *reaches out to touch his shoulder, but realizes maybe that would be
intrusive and stops herself*
NYClark2: She does not even know who I am anymore.
Will Rennar: *blinks* IM: Oh dear...I hope he doesn't panic after realizing he said one of their
names...seems scared to death to do that...
NYClark2: I know who she is... and I can not ever see her again.
NYClark2: J.... j... ::shakes his head::
NebbieQ: Shh, shh...you don't have to say anythinn....
NebbieQ: anything*
NYClark2: Just another day in the park. We spent so many there together.
NYClark2: Do you know her now?
NYClark2: Please, I must know.
NebbieQ: *Pauses for a bit, before nodding slowly.*
NYClark2: As she used to be... as she is.
NYClark2: They knew it in Memoria. And condemned me for my devotion.
NebbieQ: Here, lets get you someplace else. I think you'd feel better if you layed down for a bit...
Lithaladhwen: No one should ever condemn you for that. Ever. They were wrong.
NebbieQ: If you live too far away, I have a house that's nearby. We have plenty of room there.
Will Rennar: IM: Just as long as we don't have to haul a bed in here.
NYClark2: I can not sleep right now.
NYClark2: Would you want to even dream of that place again?
NebbieQ: You don't have to sleep, if you don't want to. You can just rest.
Will Rennar: Well, you could probably stand to get a little something in your stomach at the
very least..
NYClark2: Do not leave me alone.
NYClark2: Leaving me alone is what got me stuck there for a year. No one found me.
NYClark2: No one real found me.
CGNakibe: (Who all is this? o.o)
Lithaladhwen: I'm real, and I'm not leaving you alone. I'll be right here if you want someone
there, okay?
NebbieQ: (Scene in La Estrella Nueva, a store. I'm playing Neb now.)
Will Rennar: (Ruby here.)
NYClark2: Thank you Holly.
NYClark2: ( James is having a breakdown... we seem to be at the tail end of it )
NYClark2: Neb, I am glad you are so much nicer in reality.
NebbieQ: I'm just doing what I can.
NYClark2: But can they ever forgive me?
NebbieQ: The people in Memoria? I cannot say, but it doesn't matter.
NYClark2: The real people.
NebbieQ: The people here, in reality...they can forgive you.
NebbieQ: You can be sure of that.
NYClark2: If they knew...
NebbieQ: *Shakes her head* Don't worry about it. Chances are, there isn't even anything to forgive.
NYClark2: They would be so disappointed in me.
NebbieQ: I doubt it.
Lithaladhwen: I agree with her. I doubt that you've done anything that terrible.
CGNakibe: (Hmm... I wonder.)
Lithaladhwen: No one deserves what happened to you. No one.
NYClark2: Memoria has a way of making you think you deserve it.
Lithaladhwen: Well, we aren't there now. No one here, and I mean no one, would do that to you.
CGNakibe: (What sort of store is this exactly?)
Lithaladhwen: You do not deserve it, whatever they said.
NebbieQ: (Magical items, antiques, and some home goods.)
NYClark2: Do not ever go there. Ever.
Lithaladhwen: I won't. I promise.
NebbieQ: (And potions.)
Will Rennar: (Don't forget the po--nevermind.)
TaiarKino: (Hooome Goods...)
NYClark2: ::Looks to Neb:: Let us never go back there.
CGNakibe: *meanwhile, a rather dark and mysterious (ZOMG!) figure comes in. Or not. Just a guy in a really dark
trenchcoat, out for shopping*
CGNakibe: (*breaks time! Just for the hell of it*)
NebbieQ: *Smiles softly* That's a pretty good plan.
Will Rennar: (DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNN!)
Arch mage144 has left the room.
Arch mage144 has entered the room.
CGNakibe: IM: Now, what was the shopping list again? Bread, Milk, healing potions, paper, Explosive Devices!,
No no no. >.>;;;
Will Rennar: (Looks more like you broke AM's connection, Shaun. Nice one. e.e)
NYClark2: ( He got better. )
CGNakibe: (Eep. ;_; )
Lithaladhwen: (Brian's computer spontaneously turns itself off.)
CGNakibe: (Anyone playing shopkeep?0
NYClark2: ( Neb's Neb character and Neb's Pixie character )
NebbieQ: (brb, parents need to ask something)
CGNakibe: *Damian idly looks around, trying to remember what the other shopping items are...* ... figures. I
should've brought a list.
CGNakibe: (Brian's computer needs to be stabbed with a spork. >:{)
NebbieQ: (Back)
NebbieQ: *...hey, where did that pixie go?*
Will Rennar: (DUN D--*thwimped*)
NebbieQ: *With a soft pop, though, the question is answered. She's now flitting to the side of Damian.*
CGNakibe: *sighs* Ah, well. We'll just try to remember everything as we go. -.-
NebbieQ: Yes?
NebbieQ: *...now how'd she do that?*
NYClark2: I have not said their names in a long time. It was always too painful to even think of them.
CGNakibe: Ah, I was just wondering what you have in the way of healing potions? Something a little stronger than
the average healing balms.
NebbieQ: Hmn. How much stronger?
NebbieQ: IM: At least he seems harmless...
NYClark2: ::Looks at one hand, and grabs it a bit with the other's index finger and thumb:: Am I still here?
NebbieQ: *nods* We still see you.
CGNakibe: IM: Why not spring for a few explosive runes or two? Duh. Because I can't use them? And I'm not
interested in seeing things explode.
Lithaladhwen: *puts her hand over his* Yes. You're here. And you're okay.
NebbieQ: Or rather, what do they need to do?
Will Rennar: (Damian has issues, I take it? :b )
CGNakibe: *shrugs* Mostly healing of wounds. At least 5 of those. One or two all-purpose antidotes, just in case.
Lithaladhwen: (Damian has.... a friend.)
NYClark2: Ok. That is good to know.
Lithaladhwen: *nod*
CGNakibe: (This is what happens when spirits bother you. You know, constantly.)
CGNakibe: Aside from that... any good Traveller's Bread would be nice, if you have that.
CGNakibe: Some place I've been haven't carried it. *shrugs*
NebbieQ: I should be able to help you with all of that. Just follow me...
CGNakibe: *... does that shadow on the ground seem a little... odd somehow?*
CGNakibe: Oh, certainly, miss.
NebbieQ: *Flies further down the store, and away from James and co.*
CGNakibe: *follows the pixie*
NYClark2: We were going somewhere, right?
NebbieQ: *Loops around them, going to a spot in the front, and away from the group. How roundabout.*
NYClark2: ::Looks to Holly and then Neb:: Someone suggested it before.
NebbieQ: If you want to. Are you staying anywhere in the city?
NYClark2: Yes but, I do not remember the way... sorry.
NebbieQ: Hmn. Do you remember where it was?
NYClark2: I usually do. But today was not a good day.
CGNakibe: Hm. This is a rather nice store you have here. o.o
Lithaladhwen: Do you want to go find it, then? I'll go with you.
NYClark2: It was a house of healing. But there are a lot of those. And only one where Kumo lives.
NebbieQ: Why thank you. We do do our best here.
Lithaladhwen: Oh! I know Kumo.
Lithaladhwen: I know where that is.
NYClark2: You do?
NebbieQ: And, the potions should be here.
Lithaladhwen: Yes.
NebbieQ: Hmn. I think I've been there before, with Tolaris.
CGNakibe: *something non-fragile apparently drops from the shelves near Holly. Clumsy clumsy*
NYClark2: He is nice, do you not agree?
Lithaladhwen: Yes, he is. ^_^
NebbieQ: None fragile thing: *is a small wooden block! Child's toy, perhaps?*
Lithaladhwen: *looks over he shoulder at dropped thing*
Lithaladhwen: *picks it up and hands it to Damian*
CGNakibe: o.o >.> IM: ... I know that my familiar is right here next to me... Right?
CGNakibe: Ah, good Good.
NebbieQ: (Unless I'm misunderstanding Shaun.)
NYClark2: Easy to carry too.
CGNakibe: *has it handed to him* Hm? o.o
CGNakibe: (Nope, you're not.)
NebbieQ: Our strongest ones are to the left, and are in-hmn?
Lithaladhwen: Would you put that up on the shelf, please? It fell.
Lithaladhwen: IM: You dropped it, but that's okay.
Lithaladhwen: *back to James*
CGNakibe: Oh, certainly. *places it back where he thinks it may have gone*
Lithaladhwen: Easy to carry? *giggles* Guess maybe he would be!
CGNakibe: Strongest? How much are they?
NYClark2: He is! We sometimes go for walks. He watches out for me. Though it might seem a bit backwards.
Will Rennar: *blinks* IM: ...This "Kumo" must be rather small, I gather...
NYClark2: He only spent a day in Memoria. So he is not the one to worry about.
CGNakibe: *Holly is poked! :D!*
Lithaladhwen: *is poked and looks around*
Will Rennar: *glances at Holly* Something wrong?
CGNakibe: *not much there.. or so it seems*
NebbieQ: Seven hundred and fifty gil...usually, only for the most dire of cases.
Lithaladhwen: *looks up at Damian* Excuse me. Did you need something?
NYClark2: ::Did not poke her, he hardly knows her::
CGNakibe: Hm? Need?
Lithaladhwen: (Ew.)
CGNakibe: o.o I can't say that I did.
Will Rennar: (*THUD*)
CGNakibe: ... Hm. e.e
NYClark2: ( I knew I'd get a thud outta you, Will. )
NebbieQ: *Looks towards Holly.*
NebbieQ: IM: Something isn't right here... >_>
CGNakibe: IM: GET OVER HERE!!!
CGNakibe: *for the observant, one might notice a dark spot on the floor moving towards Damian*
Lithaladhwen: Um.... 'kay. o_o
NebbieQ: ...sir?
Lithaladhwen: *notices and carefully represses all memory of it*
CGNakibe: *For his part, Damian scowls at it fiercely* STAY. e.e
Lithaladhwen: IM: Weird. Not going to worry about it.
NebbieQ: I don't suppose you know what that...thing is? e_e
CGNakibe: Oh, sorry. ^^;;
CGNakibe: *sighs* IT will stay IN ITS PLACE while we're here, ma'am. I hope. Its a familiar of sorts.
NebbieQ: ...I see.
CGNakibe: >.> I'd much rather have a cat.
Will Rennar: *glances at the floor, then up at Damian* IM: ...Great, just what this poor guy needs
right now, a Boogeyman...
NYClark2: So, how do you know Kumo?
NebbieQ: *Seems less than pleased, but continues on with the potions*
NebbieQ: Will these be fine, or would you prefer something else?
Lithaladhwen: I met him in the park. We performed together a couple of times.
NYClark2: Performed?
CGNakibe: IM: But then you wouldn't have my charming personality! :D! Oh no. Whatever will I do without
you? 9.9
Lithaladhwen: Mmhm. *nods*
Will Rennar: *opens her mouth to say something, but got beat to the punch by James*
CGNakibe: These will be just fine, I'd say. Thank you.
NebbieQ: That sounds interesting.
Lithaladhwen: *takes the flute off her belt* I play. He was dancing. It was a lot of fun. ^_^
NebbieQ: IM: Just keep on talking...just make sure he stays calm...
CGNakibe: *gives his kind host a bow*
NebbieQ: And did you say it was...five that was needed?
NebbieQ: IM: Hmn. At least he has the common decency to show manners.
CGNakibe: IM: DANSU! *shadow dances on the floor*
CGNakibe: *sighs*
Lithaladhwen: (XD)
NebbieQ: IM: ...charming.
NYClark2: He is a good dancer. He uses it to heal people sometimes.
NebbieQ: (Familiar vs Kumo dance off!)
Lithaladhwen: He does. I try to help.
NYClark2: Can you do that with your flute?
Will Rennar: ...Umm...sir? *points at the shadow by Damian's feet*
Lithaladhwen: I don't use healing magic, but I do use music for my spells, yes. Some of them at
least.
CGNakibe: Hm? o.o v.v
CGNakibe: Oh. Don't mind him.
CGNakibe: Or at least, TRY not to.
Will Rennar: (.....Let's not get into what one could do with a flute, shall we?)
CGNakibe: -.- *rubs forehead* Nevermind that this can be hard.
NebbieQ: (One can use it to do this.)
CGNakibe: (And this one time, at band camp...)
NebbieQ: (*Whaps Xaq*)
NebbieQ: (*And Shaun*)
Will Rennar: (*BONK!* X_X!)
CGNakibe: (*whapped* I. Regret. Nothing!!!!)
Will Rennar: (I am SO glad I'm not a Terranigma monster, otherwise that would've REALLY
hurt...)
CGNakibe: How about the bread? o.o
Lithaladhwen: (*shoots Wilren because it's Holly, for gods' sake.*)
NYClark2: ( Illusion of Gaia had the flute weapon. )
CGNakibe: Do you happen to have any?
Will Rennar: (Whichev--*shot* X_X!!)
NebbieQ: Hmn...we have some dried flat bread...more like crackers, really.
NebbieQ: Will taht do?
NebbieQ: Also! You mentioned antidotes, did you not?
CGNakibe: Well enough, I should think.
CGNakibe: Yes ma'am. I did.
Lithaladhwen: So, James, do you want to go home? I could walk you there. I don't mind.
NYClark2: Well, ok. You have been there before, right?
Lithaladhwen: I have.
Lithaladhwen: *solemn nod*
NebbieQ: They're right below the potions I mentioned. They're a hundred fifty gil a piece.
NYClark2: Ok! Let us go! ^_^
Will Rennar: *smiles, glad to see a smile on James' face*
NebbieQ: Goodbye, you two, and take care.
Lithaladhwen: Xevan, are you coming, or do you want to stay here and shop?
NYClark2: I think I am feeling a little more sensible. Neb, I am glad to have met the real you. We should talk more
about things.
Arch mage144: I imagine that it would be clear by now that I feel there is no reason for me to
be here.
Lithaladhwen: That's what I thought. ^_^
Will Rennar: IM: ...Real personable type, that one...
NebbieQ: *nods* If you wish.
Arch mage144: Let's go.
NYClark2: You remind me of so many people. Astrynax, and my Brother being the two biggest examples.
NYClark2: ::This to Xevan::
Lithaladhwen: Yup. Hey, James.
Lithaladhwen: Let's get you home. *grabs his hand and heads out*
NYClark2: ::Let's himself be lead along::
Will Rennar: Bye!
Lithaladhwen: (Holly does that to people a lot.)
Arch mage144: I have no idea who you are talking about.
Lithaladhwen: *waves to the nice store-folk*
NebbieQ: (Holly: Hey, do you know what the best cure is for emotional damage? James: What is it, Holly? o.o
Holly: MAKEOVERS!)
NebbieQ: *Waves back*
Lithaladhwen: ( XD )
NYClark2: My brother is a good person. He is just a bit grumpy sometimes. Same with Astrynax. That is probably
why they got along so well.
NebbieQ: (Xevan: NOw you know why I do not tell her my problems. e.e Holly: Oh come on, that pink nailpolish
was so you. Xevan: Drows do not do sparkles!)
Will Rennar: (...They gone now?)
Lithaladhwen: (Yeah.)
NYClark2: ( Well, I am still playing, if Ash is, just out of the store. )
NebbieQ: *Doesn't wave, as she's busy leading folks around.*
Lithaladhwen: Xevan is nice. He just won't ever admit it to anyone else. ^_^
NYClark2: Yes, my brother is the same way.
NebbieQ: IM: At least that's taken care of. 9_9; I hope Neb doesn't get too involved with him...
Arch mage144: ...Miss Holly, I'm standing right here.
NYClark2: I miss him.
Will Rennar: *frowns, sighs* Poor guy...certainly hope his heart can start to heal soon, as much
as I doubt it...
Lithaladhwen: Xevan! Don't punish me by retreating to Miss Holly.
NebbieQ: *sighs* This is going to take a lot of time, I'm afraid.
Lithaladhwen: The formality is totally unnecessary and you know it.
NebbieQ: Oh, erm, and by the way...
Will Rennar: Yes?
NebbieQ: ...can you help me move this back? ^_^;
Will Rennar: ....*chuckles* I was afraid you were going to ask that...
Will Rennar: Sure.
Will Rennar: IM: *groans*
Arch mage144: If you insist. But you can't just talk about me as though I'm not here!
NYClark2: Sorry about that.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, I'm just teasing.
NYClark2: It is just that you remind me so much of them.
CGNakibe: Hmm.
Lithaladhwen: IM: He's still mad at me.
NebbieQ: Thanks.
NebbieQ: *Lifts up her end*
Arch mage144: IM: Hmph.
NYClark2: They would always be "hmphing" and talking to themselves about how everyone was an idiot except
them.
CGNakibe: (BRB. Again. >.<;; )
NebbieQ: They're on the bottom shelf, in the brown bags.
Will Rennar: *picks the other end up* Erf!
Lithaladhwen: *bites her bottom lip so she doesn't laugh*
NebbieQ: *Pants, and begins walking.*
NYClark2: ::Aww... laugh! C'mon!::
Arch mage144: I have never suggested that everyone else is an idiot.
NYClark2: They would spend a lot of time glowering at everything around them too.
Lithaladhwen: *covers her mouth with one hand* ^_^
CGNakibe: (Back)
Lithaladhwen: To be fair, Xevan is much smarter than most people.
Lithaladhwen: *sage nod*
Will Rennar: *moves along with her* Maybe you should invest in some...nnf....lighter furniture?
*chuckles*
Lithaladhwen: IM: He knows just about everything, I swear.
Lithaladhwen: IM: Nothing about people, but lots of things nonetheless.
CGNakibe: Decent variety of dried foods you have here. o.o
NebbieQ: *chuckles* Hey, if people keep...*hff* ...buying this...
NYClark2: Yes, they were smart too. But they seemed to think that doing nice things was dumb.
NebbieQ: This is the spot...*ottoman set!*
Will Rennar: *eases it down softly, but quickly* Whew!
NebbieQ: *Nods* We also have some fruits and nuts, if you're interested.
NebbieQ: Again, thanks.
NebbieQ: Here...
LovelyJester: (wow still going? keen.)
Arch mage144: Silence yourself, insanity-gripped creature.
NebbieQ: *Fishes around her pocket, and pulls out some gil.*
CGNakibe: Haven't had good fruits on the road in quite some time. ^.^
Will Rennar: Not a problem. ^_^ *accepts Neb's offer*
NebbieQ: *Hands it over to her*
CGNakibe: *For its part, Damian's shadow lurks. Watching... waiting for the right time to STRIKE!!!*
Lithaladhwen: *disapproving look to Xevan*
NYClark2: Creature? I once fought something we called The Creature.
NebbieQ: *Ooh, ten gil. Not a lot, but...*
Lithaladhwen: IM: He is so mean sometimes.
NebbieQ: Still, it was helpful of you.
NYClark2: It was not a nice creature.
Will Rennar: Not exactly my usual line of work, but I won't argue with helping someone like that
out. ^_^
NYClark2: It wanted to infect or possess all living things.
Lithaladhwen: That's a good reason to fight it, James.
NebbieQ: The only thing we have right now, though, are apples...we might get some apricots in next week, though.
Lithaladhwen: What happened?
CGNakibe: Good enough ofr me. I particularly like dried apples.
NebbieQ: Oh? And what do you usually do?
NYClark2: I know! And I saved my friends from it a couple of times.
Arch mage144: IM: Whatever.
NebbieQ: They're in another bag, right on top....
Lithaladhwen: Well, that's good.
NebbieQ: *In fact, there are more paper bags, this time with a redder tint.*
Lithaladhwen: IM: I have to wonder if these are the same friends he was talking about before.
NYClark2: One time I shot it, and it blew up, that helped save my friends from getting taken over by it. Memoria
claimed that I murdered it, but I was defending my friends.
Will Rennar: ..Oh, silly me, I never even introduced myself. I'm Ruby Orion, fortune teller.
*extends a handshake*
CGNakibe: *Reaches the short distance up himself. After all, being somewhat tall has its advantages.*
NebbieQ: *Shakes her hand. She's got a rather firm grip, for such a small woman.*
CGNakibe: Mmm... I'll definitely enjoy these on the next job.
NYClark2: It was an it. It wanted to kill everyone. Everyone! For something no one here had anything to do with.
NebbieQ: Neb Nueva, shopkeeper. It's a pleasure meeting you.
Lithaladhwen: Well, you were right to get rid of it then.
CGNakibe: *Ruby's shadow has a shadow for some, inexplicable reason*
Lithaladhwen: At least as far as I'm concerned.
CGNakibe: *Perhaps Damian's odd "pet" has taken an interest?*
NYClark2: Thank you.
NebbieQ: Wil this be all for you?
Lithaladhwen: You should never feel guilty for helping your friends. No matter what anyone else
says.
Lithaladhwen: *firm nod*
CGNakibe: Yes. And for the troublemaker.
NebbieQ: (Familiar: Hey babe, come here often?)
Will Rennar: *smiles* So, I was wondering...this "Memoria" that man mentioned...you said you'd
been there before. What is it, exactly?
NYClark2: I do not like killing for its own sake. It was not easy to do so.
CGNakibe: I'd ask if you have good banishing spells, but I've tried that before. >.>
Will Rennar: (Ruby: *promptly puts a bloody shaft through the familiar's forehead*)
CGNakibe: IM: Hey! That's just wrong! ... and your point is?
NYClark2: ( It's a shadow, seems pretty incorporeal to me. )
Lithaladhwen: I try not to run around killing things, either. But when there's no other option,
sometimes it has to be done to protect the people you care about.
NYClark2: ::nods emphatically:: Exactly!
NebbieQ: Not my expertise, I'm afraid. But if we get any scrolls in...well, you'll be the first to know.
CGNakibe: *chuckles* I'll remember that.
CGNakibe: Get mercenaries in here too often, miss?
Will Rennar: (*PUTS A SHAFT THROUGH ITS FOREHEAD ANYWAY. >:{{ *)
CGNakibe: (Shadow Naki: *raspberries Ruby*)
NebbieQ: No, but considering how rowdy some customers can get, it doesn't make much of a difference.
CGNakibe: (Naki T: Only a flesh wound, my dear! *arms fall off*)
NebbieQ: *Smirks, a tiny bit.* But, we still manage.
CGNakibe: *chuckles* That does seem to be the way of things in many places.
CGNakibe: Some folks take the life of violence a little too... seriously, I suppose.
Lithaladhwen: *totally still has James' hand* So, how did you meet Kumo?
NebbieQ: *Makes her way to the counter.* That is the way of things, sadly.
CGNakibe: Personally I see no excuse for such rudeness.
NebbieQ: It's like their pride has beaten their common sense.
NYClark2: Well... It was a long time ago... I am not certain actually.
NebbieQ: Well...it's a strange place.
NebbieQ: It's like memories come alive.
NYClark2: I think we were in the middle of some world saving type of event.
Will Rennar: Really....wow.
Lithaladhwen: Oh. That makes sense. It happens a lot.
NebbieQ: And sometimes, the memories gain a life of their own.
CGNakibe: *Ruby feels an odd presence... as if someone is standing behind her.*
NebbieQ: It isn't all bad, but some spots of it...well, it can get out of control.
NYClark2: I met a lot of my friends through other friends.
Will Rennar: ....*whips around* ....Hmm. Seems our invisible friend has wandered off.
NebbieQ: Hmn?
CGNakibe: *the presence can still be felt... though its odd that no one SEEMS there...*
Will Rennar: Either that or I'm going cra-- *looks down at her shadow*
CGNakibe: *And a little shadow leans against hers. "Seeing" her looking at it, it waves!*
CGNakibe: *It looks rather like a kid's shadow, really.*
Will Rennar: Yep, I was right.
Lithaladhwen: *nod*
NebbieQ: *Looks down at it*
CGNakibe: *The familiar tries to hide in Ruby's shadow before others notice it. Probably not nearly fast enough,
though*
NebbieQ: ...and I thought I kept strange company.
Will Rennar: Indeed.
NebbieQ: IM: That thing gives me the creeps. >.>
NebbieQ: *Meanwhile, at the counter*
Lithaladhwen: Well, if there's one thing no one can criticize, it's having friends. Everybody
needs them to some extent. They're pretty important, at least as far as I'm concerned.
NebbieQ: Let's see...combining the potions...five healing, and two antidotes...as well as the food...
Lithaladhwen: I'm glad you have someplace to stay where they'll look after you. You had me
worried, you know.
CGNakibe: Some mercs don't seem to HAVE common sense, ma'am. To the detriment of all.
NYClark2: Yes, I agree.
NebbieQ: *Does some quick mental math* ...that comes to 4159 gil.
CGNakibe: But then, I suppose that's why there always seem to be new mercs.
CGNakibe: *nods*
NebbieQ: Perhaps.
NYClark2: I help out sometimes.
Will Rennar: *sighs* I guess I'd better get you back to your friend before he leaves without
realizing he's lost you.
NebbieQ: It does seem like some of them aren't really fit for anything else.
CGNakibe: *reaches into a backpack and starts pulling out small bags of gold*
Will Rennar: *heads back up to the counter* You coming, little shadow?
CGNakibe: Misfits, loners, and ruffians who would otherwise turn to crime, some.
NebbieQ: And some of them are even too incompetant for taht.
NebbieQ: that*
NYClark2: They help keep me calm and sensible there.
Lithaladhwen: ^_^ That's always good.
CGNakibe: *the little familiar seems somewhat worried, then nods, looking defeated*
NYClark2: But sometimes the pain comes out. And bad days happen.
CGNakibe: IM: ...get to have any fun. Huh? Oh.
CGNakibe: *looks over in the direction of Ruby* You! Get back here! e.e
Lithaladhwen: *little hand squeeze* It's okay. That's nothing to be ashamed of. It happens.
Will Rennar: *chuckles* Guess I didn't have to worry after all. *looks over at Damian* Don't
worry, he was behaving himself quite nicely.
Lithaladhwen: (Lost Brian.)
CGNakibe: *the shadow slinks towards its master* >.> I hope he didn't cause you any trouble, miss.
CGNakibe: For once. -.-;;;
NebbieQ: *Starts counting the money*
NebbieQ: IM: Sometimes, I wish the currency here was smaller. v.v;
Will Rennar: *giggles* It's alright. *extends a hand in greeting* I'm Ruby, fortune teller.
CGNakibe: *shakes hand, and then almost-bows to Ruby, as if unsure* Damian, miss Ruby. Its a pleasure to meet
you.
NYClark2: I still like to go out every so often though.
NYClark2: Fresh air is good for you.
Lithaladhwen: I can hang around for a while if you'd like. Or we can go somewhere. I don't have
anything else planned for today.
CGNakibe: >.> Even if my small friend needs to keep his ethereal hands to himself. *GLARE*
Will Rennar: *smiles* Likewise, Damian. *glances down at the shadow* I don't suppose your
companion has a name?
CGNakibe: IM: Not MY fault you aren't doing anything FUN today.
CGNakibe: Hm. He does, but I'd rather not say. >.>;;; I've gotten rather odd reactions in the past.
NebbieQ: *Walks over, and begins to help out her fae friend.*
CGNakibe: Besides, usually I'm too busy getting him to BEHAVE.
NebbieQ: *Mutters* You didn't have to... *Shrugs it off*
CGNakibe: -.-
NebbieQ: He seems like a real handful.
Arch mage144 has left the room.
Arch mage144 has entered the room.
CGNakibe: ... A real laugh and a half.
Will Rennar: Oh? Alright then, I won't ask.
CGNakibe: And he talks too.
CGNakibe: Mostly to me. Often when I least need him to.
NebbieQ: How'd you find him?
CGNakibe: He... found me, actually. o.o
CGNakibe: >.> Now if only he was easy to get rid of.
NYClark2: Well, we can go all sorts of places. You are the one leading the way.
NebbieQ: Ahhh. One of those cases.
Will Rennar: I see. *stifles a giggle*
CGNakibe: IM: Too bad for you! We're Best Friends Forever! ... *SIIIIIGH*
Lithaladhwen: Hm. Xevan, are you hungry?
Arch mage144: No.
NYClark2: Fresh air has the park. Food has restaurants and taverns.
Lithaladhwen: If I were to take us to a restaurant and everyone else was ordering food...would
you get something?
Arch mage144: Possibly.
CGNakibe: He does have his uses, though.
Lithaladhwen: James, what do you say? Food?
Arch mage144: (Me too)
NYClark2: If you are hungry, it makes sense to eat.
NebbieQ: Oh?
Lithaladhwen: (Damn. Holly's right. She made me hungry. BRB.)
Arch mage144: (Er, I preempted Ashley)
Lithaladhwen: (Brian apparently also wants food.)
CGNakibe: (Ashley has mind-melting powers!)
NYClark2: ( Fuck... now I want to run to the deli like I was planning to a couple of hours ago. )
CGNakibe: (*hides!*)
NebbieQ: (Food break!)
NYClark2: ( Food run! ::mass exodus of RP:: )
Lithaladhwen: (Da. Food break.)
Arch mage144: (You really are a new yorker.)
Will Rennar: (DIDL-LIDL!)
NYClark2: ( What's that mean? )
CGNakibe: (*already ate, and is immune to your Evil Food Break Powers!)
Will Rennar: (That's my impression of th SMB1 "Pause/Unpause" sound effect.)
NebbieQ: (As for me, I think I'll be done with the CI after Damien and Ruby decide to leave.)
NYClark2: ( I'm not offended, I'm just wondering which part of that you were referring to. )
NebbieQ: (It was fun today! But my attention span is also short.)
Will Rennar: (Actually, I was getting ready to scoot m'self...)
TaiarKino: (...<.<...)
NebbieQ: (Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed the store bit earlier.)
CGNakibe: (Pedro: NOOOOOOOOOOOOO~!!!!)
NYClark2: ( Yes muchly. )
NYClark2: ( I hope you did not mind James' insane breakdownyness. )
Will Rennar: (That was fun, even if I'm going to be eternally disappointed at not being able to
afford that scabbard. ;_; )
CGNakibe: (The band is breaking up. T.T )
NYClark2: ( We'll have a reunion concert tomorrow )
LovelyJester: (Penis!)
NebbieQ: (Perhaps she can run a mission for them, and get payed in scabbards!)
NYClark2: ( I am running out, and coming back in ten minutes or so )
Will Rennar: (...Really? *is prone to miss sarcasm*)
Lithaladhwen: (Brian and I are putting pasta on to boil.)
CGNakibe: (Miss Sarcasm: *hugs Xaq*)
Lithaladhwen: (The store bit was cool. Holly wanted that snake.)
NebbieQ: (Don't worry. The snake will still be there.)
NebbieQ: (Watching.)
NebbieQ: (Waiting.)
NebbieQ: (Sulking.)
Lithaladhwen: (I just couldn't justify her having that much money right now.)
NYClark2: ( Biding its time )
Lithaladhwen: (And if she buys it? What then?)
NebbieQ: (Oh, understandable.)
CGNakibe: (Oddly, Damian has lots of free cash at this point.)
Lithaladhwen: (Shaun: Just wait until Yadali pays them.)
CGNakibe: (Too much of a "rainy day" person. >.>;;; )
NebbieQ: (Also, I will be having more affordable magical items soon.)
Lithaladhwen: (That girl doesn't know the value of money. At all.)
NebbieQ: (Ten to one says she pays them in leaves.)
CGNakibe: (Heh.)
CGNakibe: (Hahahaha.)
Lithaladhwen: (Yay for affordable items! What will happen if Holly buys the snake?!)
NebbieQ: (Shenanigans!)
NebbieQ: (And the snake being very smug!)
CGNakibe: (Damian IM: .. good thing I didn't come along for the cash. >.>;;; )
Lithaladhwen: (Fantastic. It shall be so. Someday.)
Lithaladhwen: (And Yadali will not pay you in leaves. She's used money before. Gil money.)
NebbieQ: (Yay!)
CGNakibe: (Naki IM: crazy cheapskate leaf-eater. e.e GET A DAMN JOB YOU HIPPIE!! )
CGNakibe: (Damian IM: *THWAP* -.-;;; )
NYClark2: ( Ok, I am really off now. Be back in a few )
NebbieQ: (Also, this is one of the reasons why they sell normal stuff now, as well as potions. After the war, and the
original place was destroyed, most people couldn't afford the fancy antiques and magic stuff that had been...)
NebbieQ: (...their only staple in the past.)
NebbieQ: (Solution: Diversify!)
Will Rennar: (I THOUGHT that place was a little too Wal-Mart-ish...)
CGNakibe: (And a good solution this is indeed.)
Will Rennar: (At least it's for a good reason.)
NebbieQ: (So, yeah. A good explanation for how they were able to stay in business after that.)
CGNakibe: (Its not so bad, really.)
CGNakibe: (Reminds me more of a General Store.)
NebbieQ: (Indeed! That's what gave me the idea.)
Lithaladhwen: (Holly will go there in the future for all her shiny-thing needs.)
NebbieQ: (Huzzah!)
CGNakibe: (*Balrog drops down next to Neb*)
CGNakibe: (Balrog: Can I be your servant? Please, huh? Can I?)
NebbieQ: (Neb: ...hey! You're getting lava all over the floor!)
CGNakibe: (Wrong Balrog. >.>)
Will Rennar: (*Points at the Balrog with a dinner knife and a stick* YOUUUUU! SHALL
NOOOOOOT! BE HIRED!!!!)
Will Rennar: (*drives the stick right into his own foot* ....Ow.)
TaiarKino: (...That sounds painful.)
CGNakibe: (Glad I'm not Xaq right about now.)
Lithaladhwen: (Cripes.)
Will Rennar: (....Anyone got a bandage? X_x;;; )
NebbieQ: (Check Aisle 7)
Will Rennar: (Right. *hobbles off to check...and to grab a snack before everyone else gets
back*)
NebbieQ: (Also, Shaun! Do you plan on continuing stuff?)
Will Rennar: (*DAMN IT IS COLD OUTSIDE!!!*)
LovelyJester: (It's quite nice here. warm even. :P)
NebbieQ: (Ohhh, Texas.)
NebbieQ: (Also, this winter was the warmest I've had since living in Georgia. o.o )
NebbieQ: (Usually we get a few token snow flurries, but this year? Nil.)
Will Rennar: (....*glares at Lex*
Kaaaaaaaaaaaaa....meeeeeeeeeeeeeee....haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
eeeeeee............oh screw it. e_e )
NYClark2: ( Backness )
LovelyJester: (HAHAHAHA. *points and laughs* Oh warm sexy texas, with it's tshirt
weather and sun.)
NebbieQ: (And it's miserable hell demon summers.)
LovelyJester: (I like being roasty. Like a lizard.)
NYClark2: ( I like having seasons. )
LovelyJester: (Seasons are for chumps.)
NebbieQ: (Clark is sounding like my mom now.)
NYClark2: ( Hm? )
NebbieQ: (Yeah. She misses seasons.)
NYClark2: ( Perpetual summer, or winter where you are? )
NebbieQ: (Well, we've got Fall (Chilly), Spring (warm), and Summer (hot). No winter.)
NYClark2: ( Where do you put "the holidays"? )
Lithaladhwen: (I'm back.)
NebbieQ: (The holidays go into "Pseudo-Winter".)
NYClark2: ( Is it a long fall or a long spring? )
Lithaladhwen: (Who else are we missing?)
NYClark2: ( Nak? AM? )
Lithaladhwen: (AM is right next to me.)
CGNakibe: (Rar!)
Will Rennar: (He's here, apparently.)
Lithaladhwen: (So. In-character food-getting is now?)
NYClark2: ( Ask him what he meant by "Arch mage144: (You really are a new yorker.)" )
NYClark2: ( Yes
NYClark2: )*
TaiarKino: (...>.>...)
CGNakibe: (And Neb: I swear I haven't heard much except from Doug in a short bit.)
Will Rennar: (o_O? )
NebbieQ: (Huh what?)
CGNakibe: (On continuing STUFF)
NebbieQ: (Oh! STUFF.)
CGNakibe: (its like, activity, then nothing.)
Will Rennar: (Nevermind. And yes, STUFF.)
NYClark2: ( STUFF? )
Lithaladhwen: Hm. James, what are you in the mood for?
NebbieQ: (Also, is there a chance that stuff can take place away from the store? ^^; I would like to leave the CI
soon.)
NebbieQ: (Not immediate, but soon.)
NYClark2: Tea, or Cocoa.
CGNakibe: (Yes, there is such a chance, methinks)
Will Rennar: (I was planning on having Ruby scoot in a moment anyway.)
Lithaladhwen: (Holly, James and Xevan are leaving. Other folk may do as they please.)
CGNakibe: (Cocoa: Cocoa!)
Lithaladhwen: Ooh, cocoa. That would be lovely. Do you know anyplace good?
DarkLordKelne has left the room.
CGNakibe: Sometimes it boggles the mind some of the odd jobs I've gotten around here
NYClark2: Not really. I used to, but it burned down.
CGNakibe: And how many of these "mercs" are just thugs who want to be paid for their services.
Will Rennar: True. Hard enough for some of us to make an honest living these days...
Lithaladhwen: Oh. Yeah. Well....*thinks* Unless Xevan has any ideas, we can probably just stop
at the first likely place we find.
NebbieQ: Well...there ase some folk who are just in a rough spot...
Arch mage144: I do not.
Arch mage144: As previously stated, I am not particularly hungry.
NYClark2: What would you like to eat? I think they serve Cocoa almost everywhere.
NYClark2: You should try Cocoa, it is quite tasty.
NebbieQ: (Silly James! Drow only drink cocoa if it has spiders in it.)
CGNakibe: And mercs that are like wild dogs make people reluctant to ask for help when they need it.
Lithaladhwen: (I don't think most Lolthite Drow would drink that...)
Arch mage144: (He's a Nikumian drow anyway.)
CGNakibe: (In fact, I'd think they'd kill the person that made that cocoa.)
CGNakibe: (Twice.)
NebbieQ: True. There are far too many like that.
Lithaladhwen: (Because all the cool Drow are hate-worshippers.)
Will Rennar: Yeah, I don't imagine anyone would want to ask someone a favor and then be
handed a bill for it..
CGNakibe: (Heck, I could argue that Lolth is the Goddess of Hate in Forgotten Realms.)
NYClark2: ( I don't know what all those fancy words mean before the word "Drow" )
CGNakibe: (As in "Of the God Nikumu" Clark.)
CGNakibe: (Gaeran God of HATE!)
NYClark2: ( HATE PIE? )
NebbieQ: (And stubbed toes.)
Arch mage144: (Arguably, Shaun, but this is Gaera, and we have two different drow social
structures. =P)
Lithaladhwen: (Some Drow worship a spider goddess named Lolth. Uber matriarchal. Others
follow Nikumu and are less so.)
Lithaladhwen: (Anyway.)
CGNakibe: (Methinsk that many of the Drow's problems with other races stem from their rather cramped footwear.)
Lithaladhwen: *Holly picks a random inn-place without actually looking at the name because
she assumes they have cocoa and possibly food*
NebbieQ: And then there are those that use their job as an excuse to do whatever they want.
CGNakibe: Those are the worst kind. -.-
Arch mage144: *continues his role as stoic bodyguard of Holly*
NebbieQ: "Ohhh, I'm a big mercenary! Watch as I try to stab this guy in his face!"
CGNakibe: ... The last of that type that was around me thought I was a punching bag, apparently.
Lithaladhwen: *totally orders cocoa and an egg-salad sandwich*
CGNakibe: Too much dragonale. -.-
NebbieQ: Ugh. I feel sorry for you.
NYClark2: ::Orders a Cocoa and a small Salad::
NebbieQ: ...especially if he could take dragon ale without passing out.
CGNakibe: Don't.
Lithaladhwen: (Peer pressure! You must eat, Xevan!)
CGNakibe: I gave him a pleasant introduction to Mister Wall.
Arch mage144: *sits, orders a glass of wine and a chocobo steak*
CGNakibe: They soon became great acquaintances.
NebbieQ: *Grins* Now, was this before or after?
Will Rennar: *sputters a laugh*
CGNakibe: After, I'd say.
Arch mage144: I suppose as long as we're here that I should eat something.
NYClark2: ( They make Chicken steak? )
NebbieQ: Well, fair's fair...
CGNakibe: Personally I feel its less than that type deserves.
CGNakibe: But some still hire them.
NYClark2: So everyone is getting something. That is good.
NebbieQ: As long as people share their point of view, they'll still get jobs.
Will Rennar: Well, at least some of them appear to be a bit more reputable. *smirks*
Lithaladhwen: Mmhm. It's on me. I want to buy something today.
Arch mage144: (Chocobo are closer to ostriches in terms of build. I dunno. There's gotta be an
equivalent. A steak is just a term for a specific cut of meat.)
CGNakibe: When I can keep my shadow friend in line, thank you. >.>
CGNakibe: (Wonder how good Chocobo Eggs are..)
Will Rennar: He doesn't seem to be as bad as you make him out to be...
TaiarKino: (...I imagine they are large.)
Lithaladhwen: (Indeed.)
Lithaladhwen: (Tai should unlurk. *nod*)
CGNakibe: (If FF is any indication they may be tasty... BUT you'd have a hell of a time removing it from its mother's
care.)
NebbieQ: As long as he stays away from the items here, at least...
Lithaladhwen: (Shaun: That's where you get the steaks.)
CGNakibe: He's rather tired today.
TaiarKino: (...I bet you could get a bird for steak-Yeah...)
CGNakibe: (Truth!)
NYClark2: ( Like maybe equivalent to at least four normal eggs. )
CGNakibe: (*Chocobos fill the chat, Legend of Zelda-style*)
CGNakibe: The last job we took was rather stressful on both of us.
Lithaladhwen: (*does not attack them because she doesn't want to die*)
NYClark2: ( Sheeeeet! )
CGNakibe: And required a lot of standing still to start, which he hates.
DeathRaySpleen: (I used to have a Nezetta quote in my sig about eating chocobo testicles, actually.)
NYClark2: ( Once they are filling the place, it is already too late )
Lithaladhwen: (Yeah, pretty much.)
Will Rennar: (*Pulls one of LoZ:FSA's Giant Bombs, drops it amid the the Choco-swarm!*)
CGNakibe: (Choco Swarm: *immune, pecks Xaq TO DEATH*)
Will Rennar: Oh? What was it like? ....If you don't mind my asking, I mean.
CGNakibe: (I found a few ways to stop them from attacking.)
NebbieQ: (Like this Shaun?)
Will Rennar: (*the Swarm fails, as the bomb blast insta-killed everyone ANYWAY.*)
Arch mage144: *eats, occasionally looking around cautiously*
CGNakibe: (Pretty much! :D!)
Lithaladhwen: *eats, occasionally looking around like this: ^_^ *
CGNakibe: (And I think Link's Adventure had a way to stop the Swarm.)
CGNakibe: Lots of sitting and waiting for a certain person to arrive at a certain spot.
CGNakibe: Watching and waiting sort of thing.
CGNakibe: *shrugs*
TaiarKino: (...Leaving the screen.)
Will Rennar: ...I imagine there was a bit more involved than that, but if that's all you're
comfortable saying, I'll leave it at that.
Arch mage144: (Watching Ashley CG people is THE SCARIEST THING IN THE WORLD)
NYClark2: ::Sips and eats also doing the: ^_^ ::
TaiarKino: (...Eh?)
Will Rennar: (Coward.)
CGNakibe: Some of my clients wish for some discreetness, at least.
Arch mage144: (You don't know what I'm talking about.)
Will Rennar: *nods* Fair enough.
CGNakibe: *shrugs*
TaiarKino: (I consider entering this moment...*Continues watching RP*)
NYClark2: I used to drink Cocoa almost all the time with a friend of mine.
CGNakibe: Its a dangerous life, I will admit. But I'm used to it.
Lithaladhwen: (I'm recruiting Der Cha.)
Lithaladhwen: Oh, did you? Is that why you drink it now?
Will Rennar: I would imagine so. Your face does show experience, if I may say.
CGNakibe: Thank you.
NYClark2: Well, that friend of mine is the one who introduced me to Cocoa.
CGNakibe: OH, do you happen to have anything in the way of sweets that a boy of... 10 might like? o.o *turns back
to the counter*
Will Rennar: Ah yes, that's the other thing I meant to pick up while I was here...some bread.
Lithaladhwen: *nods* Well, it's good that you can still enjoy it. My father and I used to drink it in
the winter.
NebbieQ: Well, we have some peppermints in stock. Will that be good?
CGNakibe: Ah, just perfect. He loves those. ^^
Will Rennar: *looks at Damian* Have a little one at home?
Lithaladhwen: (Lost Brian.)
CGNakibe: You might say that, yes. Its been a while.
CGNakibe: (Mew.)
NYClark2: I sometimes drink tea now, Dan introduced me to that.
Lithaladhwen: Dan?
NYClark2: Daniel Hyral. A nice person.
Lithaladhwen: Oh. I know that name. I've heard good things.
Lithaladhwen: I think I've met his brother very briefly.
NebbieQ: *nods, and leads him to the food section.*
Arch mage144 has left the room.
NYClark2: His brother is grumpy a lot of the time.
Arch mage144 has entered the room.
NebbieQ: *There are some soft, small peppermint sticks, in a small jar.*
Will Rennar: *follows, checking her list for anything else she may have forgotten*
CGNakibe: (Also: If you're going to piss off a Link's Awakening chicken, bring the Fire staff.)
NYClark2: ( Yeah, or the boomerang )
Lithaladhwen: He didn't seem so bad to me. I think he just wanted to be left alone.
NYClark2: ( You can actually destroy those chickens )
CGNakibe: (Yep! :D!)
Will Rennar: (Boomer-chicken?)
Will Rennar: (....Whoa, didn't meant to kill the RP...)
TaiarKino: (...Murderer!)
NebbieQ: *Hands it over, checks it out, six gil for the jar, bla blah*
NYClark2: He says a lot of bad words.
CGNakibe: Thanks. ^^
NebbieQ: No trouble.
Lithaladhwen: *shrugs* He didn't seem so bad.
NYClark2: But he is a good person.
CGNakibe: *Stuffs it all in his pack. Good thing he has room for it all*
Lithaladhwen: ^_^ Probably. I wouldn't doubt it.
CGNakibe: Always gotta be prepared to spend a few days out on the road.
Will Rennar: *looks around* Hmmm...umm, Miss Neb? Where do you keep your bread?
NebbieQ: Oh, we don't have any fresh bread, I'm afraid. o.o; Just some dried crackers.
NebbieQ: Would you like directions to a baker?
Will Rennar: Ah. Yes, that would be nice, thank you.
Lithaladhwen: (Charles said he can be in here in about 20 minutes.)
CGNakibe: (That's 20 minutes too many. >:{{{ )
NYClark2: I must thank you for helping me.
Lithaladhwen: Hm? I didn't do anything.
Lithaladhwen: (Yeah, well. He'll do what he can. Hee.)
NebbieQ: *Gives directions. It seems to be nearby!*
NYClark2: You did. I was a mess back there. More of a mess, I mean. You helped calm me down. And now we are
having a nice meal. ^_^
Will Rennar: Thank you. ^_^ Well, if you ever need any help moving furniture again, maybe I
can drop by and give you a hand. *chuckles*
Lithaladhwen: I guess. I was just worried. You looked like you were having a rough time of it. I
didn't know if I could help, but I thought the least I could do was talk to you about it.
CGNakibe: Ah, well. Thank you for all your help, ma'am. *bows to Neb* Its been a pleasure, but I believe I must
get going.
NYClark2: And that is what you did. ^_^
NebbieQ: Have a nice day, and come again soon!
CGNakibe: *waves, followed by his familiar as he leaves*
Lithaladhwen: I--- Hm. ^_^
Lithaladhwen: I'm glad I could help.
NYClark2: ::nods and sips::
Lithaladhwen: (Xevan: *dies of ^_^-poisoning*)
CGNakibe: See you later miss Ruby!
CGNakibe: Perhaps I'll ask a fortune of you in the future.
Will Rennar: *waves* Have a nice day, Mr. Damian. ^_^
CGNakibe: (Almost forgot that. >.>;;; )
Will Rennar: *waves to the shadow* Bye, little fella.
CGNakibe: *shadow looks back, waves... and then follows along, soon indistinguishable from Damian's own
shadow*
Arch mage144: (*dying of kawaii*)
CGNakibe: (*summons Chibi Dan and Kitties, Farwind and Gina, Azul and Noire*)
Will Rennar: *smiles, sighs* Well then, I guess I'd better get going. I must admit, your shop is
quite lovely, Miss Neb. I'll be sure to stop by next time I need groceries or anything like that.
NebbieQ: Why thank you! And I certainly wouldn't mind your company.
Papa Tymisonn has entered the room.
Papa Tymisonn: (Yo.)
Lithaladhwen: (Heeeeeee.)
CGNakibe: (*summons spiked pits to greet Cha*)
Will Rennar: *chuckles* Heck, as slow as my regular work has been, I could probably hold
down a job here if you ever needed an extra set of hands.....you know, as long as it involved
more than lugging couches.
Lithaladhwen: (Holly, Xevan, and James. In a tavern with dinner.)
NebbieQ: ...welll...
NebbieQ: I have been on the lookout for more employees...at least, for delivery work.
NebbieQ: Perhaps we could work out an interview for tomorrow?
Will Rennar: I don't see why not. Guess I'll see you tomorrow then?
NYClark2: ( Holly and James are giving Xevan ^_^-poisoning )
Lithaladhwen: (On...peut.)
NebbieQ: I'll be waiting.
Papa Tymisonn: (The Steelers win, 21-10.)
CGNakibe: (There is a great wave of not-caring from the chat.)
Lithaladhwen: (I can't believe I had to be told by a Canadian who won the Super Bowl. I'm a bad
American.)
Papa Tymisonn: (Unless Seattle gets 11 points in 3 seconds.)
CGNakibe: (It HAS been done.)
Papa Tymisonn: (... How, exactly?)
CGNakibe: (Magic!)
Papa Tymisonn: (Oop. Too late.)
Papa Tymisonn: (It's all over.)
Lithaladhwen: (What? What the hell is over? What's going on?!)
NYClark2: ( The world. )
Papa Tymisonn: (The Super Bowl. The last 3 seconds ticked off the clock.)
NYClark2: ( Super Bowl Extra Large )
Lithaladhwen: (Oh.)
Papa Tymisonn: (Steelers win 21-10.)
Will Rennar: Alright then. See you then, Mis Neb. *smiles, waves goodbye*
Lithaladhwen: (I'm still interested in RP. I don't think we have to end here, but if other people
need to go then I suppose this is some form of stopping point.)
NYClark2: ( I am kind of petering out of things to say. Unless Holly starts asking questions or something. )
Lithaladhwen: (Nah, unless something happens it's probably just dinner from here on out.)
NYClark2: ( Ok. )
NebbieQ: *Waves back*
NebbieQ: (And, I am done.)
CGNakibe: (I just felt Damian had run his course for tonight.)
CGNakibe: (That and I am playing with the character sheet of a villain-type. My playlist seems to like him. ^^)
Lithaladhwen: (Playlists know things.)
CGNakibe: (Indeed.)
Will Rennar: (As am I. Long story short, Ruby goes to the bakery, gets some bread, and goes
home.)
Will Rennar: </Ruby Bleu Orion>
Lithaladhwen: (Okay. Thanks for playing, folks!)
Lithaladhwen: </RP>
Papa Tymisonn has left the room.
Will Rennar: (</PinkFont> Blugh!)
NYClark2: ( You don't care for the pink? )
CGNakibe: (Dan Hibiki: REAL MEN WEAR PINK)
Will Rennar: (I like my regular font better.)
TaiarKino: (...)
Will Rennar: (Also, Hibiki-san?)
Will Rennar: (***SHINKUU-TATSUMAKI-SENPU-BOOT-TO-THE-HEAD!!!!*** Shut up.
e.e)
CGNakibe: (Hibiki: OYAJIIII~! ;_; )
Will Rennar: (*snares Dan in a yoyo* SHOOTU THE MOONU! ***FLING***)
Will Rennar: (YES, I KNOW WHO I JUST IMITATED THERE.)
CGNakibe: (Sol: Hmph.)
CGNakibe: (Johnny: *hits on Xaq*)
Will Rennar: (Johnny: *gets caught up in the requisite Manticore mauling*)
NYClark2: ( Will might like to know, that apparently Manticores are weak against petrification. )
Will Rennar: (*scrolls through skill list* ....*has no petrification
abilities* ;_;-)
