You have just entered room "addictsgohere."
Der DWSage: <_< >_>
Der DWSage: Any chance of dragging other monkeys into this party?
BlackwindIsao: =o.o= meow?
Lithaladhwen: I'm trying!
Der DWSage: I know that BA and Amanda are on.
Lithaladhwen: Oh shit!
J4deninj44 has entered the room.
Lithaladhwen: ^___^
Lithaladhwen: Oh! Sage. May I request Sorune?
Der DWSage: I may have to doubletask, then.
Lithaladhwen: Just because I feel a need to play Yadali.
Der DWSage: I'm wanting to use Bill, too.
Lithaladhwen: Why?
Lithaladhwen: XD
Lithaladhwen: That's all right.
Lithaladhwen: I have the energy to play Holly, too.
Lithaladhwen: She knows him.
Der DWSage: *Nod*
Der DWSage: That reminds me. I should work on that play.
Lithaladhwen: I was just going to play Yadali next time I caught you on a good connection, since I figured she'd want to say goodbye to Sorune.
Der DWSage: *Nod, ponder*
CGNakibe has entered the room.
Der DWSage: Since we have a low amount of people anyway, I think I'll doubletask.
Lithaladhwen: Well, I can play Holly, and possibly Isaac.
Lithaladhwen: Amanda, are you interested in playing tonight?
BlackwindIsao has left the room.
Der DWSage: *Hums, gets into druid colors first*
J4deninj44: Hmm... I'm torn between keeping up sketching and joining in.
Lithaladhwen: (Oh! What are you sketching?)
J4deninj44: (The army style outfits for the Dong Pai Saam)
Der DWSage: *Gives Amanda puppy-dog eyes* Pleeeeease?
J4deninj44: *draws them*
Lithaladhwen: (Mmkay. Well, far be it for me to inhibit artsy things. I do like it when you RP, but I also like your art. Ashley is torn!)
J4deninj44: ( I know right!)
BlackwindIsao has entered the room.
J4deninj44: (If I decide on the style, I would LIKE to do a series with Miang, Tai, her bros, and the known generals of the DGP.)
Lithaladhwen: (Neat.)
Der DWSage: (*Nods* T'is. Anyway. Setting?)
Lithaladhwen: (Anyway! I may play Yadali, since Holly and Sorune are bizarrely connected through the Kumo plotline or something.)
Lithaladhwen: (Plus, she'd overload his paternal circuits.)
Der DWSage: (Right-o. Streets?)
Der DWSage: (Bar?)
Der DWSage: (Certain Inustani restaurant?(
Lithaladhwen: (Oh, hell. I can't help it. Holly wants out now.)
Lithaladhwen: (So be it.)
Der DWSage: (I'm not sure whether to play Bill or Sorune first then. :{ )
Der DWSage: (Oh bugger. Both at the same time, then.)
Der DWSage: (Streets a problem for anyone?)
Lithaladhwen: (Nope!)
BlackwindIsao: (No indeed)
Lithaladhwen: (Images are good:)
Lithaladhwen: ( http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/29029011/ )
Der DWSage: *Oh, hey. It's a pretty nice night out, with all the stars coming into life...in fact, some people are out stargazing*
Der DWSage: *One of them not stargazing is a rather...handsome looking Orc, far thinner than most of his cousins, dressed in a bard's costume with a flute hanging from it. He's chatting it up with...*
Der DWSage: *A certain Druid who is wearing the outfit seen there. He seems to be heatedly debating something with the Orc.*
Der DWSage: I'm telling you, interstellar travel without amazingly sophisticated magic or the power of a God behind you is impossible!
Der DWSage: That's because you've never studied in Valth. Amazing things they do with their technology there...
Der DWSage: I wouldn't be surprised if they managed to make some sort of train system to the stars at some point.
CGNakibe: (Now boarding the Ringworlds Express...)
Der DWSage: Valth won't get past steam power unless they stop that bloody war of theirs. Which is irrevelant.
Der DWSage: There's just too much distance to cover.
Der DWSage: (*Does the 'punch lurkers in the face' thing*)
J4deninj44: (Ow, damn.)
Der DWSage: (Amanda is sorta kinda not punched.)
Lithaladhwen: (BRB dishes)
Der DWSage: (She just gets a pillow to the face.)
J4deninj44: (For the record, two person RPs can be extremely fulfilling.)
J4deninj44: (*hugs pillow*)
Der DWSage: (Not with the same person, though.)
Lithaladhwen: (I wish to eat after working until 9 PM. : ( )
J4deninj44: (And it can. My most rewarding RPs have been with one person.)
Der DWSage: (Not counting Dave, then.)
J4deninj44: (But we have a similar RP ethic so maybe that's cheatin?)
AngeloState606 has entered the room.
Der DWSage: (BA! Lovely, lovely BA!)
AngeloState606: (Yes! It is I!)
FFFan80 has entered the room.
Der DWSage: (Sorune and Bill are on the streets arguin'. Join in and save this place from death.)
AngeloState606: (*Bats eyelashes*)
AngeloState606: (Will do!)
Der DWSage: (I can give pictures to people. :{ )
AngeloState606: (Sorry about my delay! The cheesecake is in the oven!)
AngeloState606: (Oh glorious cheesecake!)
Der DWSage: But magic overcomes that distance easily enough. Why can't engines?
BlackwindIsao has left the room.
Der DWSage: Because they'd have to go faster than light travels. Which is pretty bloody fast, believe me.
AngeloState606: *And around a random corner turns an elfy-woman with fiery red hair and wearing a corset that enhances her ever so bulging breasteses*
AngeloState606: IM: What's all the arguing about?
Der DWSage: I believe, judging by my studies of Gaera...
Der DWSage: To get to the closest star even at light speed would take over two hundred years.
AngeloState606: *Walks up to the two debaters and props her lute up onto her shoulder*
BlackwindIsao has entered the room.
AngeloState606: Is there a problem, gentlemen?
Der DWSage: *Whistles, and then sees the Elf. Waving commences!* No, just a discussion.
AngeloState606: Ah!
Der DWSage: I don't see why we can't travel to the stars without magic. Our local neighborhood Druid was explaining why it can't be done.
AngeloState606: *Nods and smiles at Bill* Good to see you, by the way.
AngeloState606: Why we can't travel to the stars without magic, hmm?
Der DWSage: Too much distance. I'm Sorune, and I'm guessing you already know Bill.
AngeloState606: Sorune. *Bow-curtsy*
AngeloState606: Good to meet you.
Der DWSage: *Smiles, gives a bow himself* But like I just said...it'd take two hundred years, even if you managed to somehow go as fast as light.
Der DWSage: To get to the nearest star.
Lithaladhwen: (I'm here!)
AngeloState606: To the lay-person, such as myself, it would seem rather difficult to travel to the stars without magic.
AngeloState606: What is your logic, Bill?
Der DWSage: *Shrug* Stranger things have happened. Who knows what sort of advances we'll find in the future?
Lithaladhwen: *A really short girl about five feet in height passes by, rotating items on her belt.*
AngeloState606: *Cocks her head to the side* That is true...
Der DWSage: See, this is supposing we can undo gravity, too. Light only goes so fast because it doesn't have weight.
Der DWSage: Any at all.
AngeloState606: Then, you mean to say that we could travel to the stars without the aid of magic EVENTUALLY, then?
Der DWSage: *And he sees Holly! Waves!*
Lithaladhwen: *She matches the picture I gave earlier, and is wearing her standard bright red jacket and purple paisley pants. She's putting her whip dagger back on her belt and pulling her flute out instead.*
Lithaladhwen: *gasps in delight* Hi! *waves*
AngeloState606: *Sees the fellow-shortling and smiles*
Der DWSage: I find it possible. Keep an open mind, and all that.
Der DWSage: For it to happen, many laws of physical nature would have to be suspended.
Lithaladhwen: *jogs over* Hey, Bill!
AngeloState606: *Shrugs* I suppose is it possible.
Der DWSage: We usually call that magic.
AngeloState606: Or technonolgy, perhaps, Sorune.
AngeloState606: *Technology
Der DWSage: *Headshake* No, technology tends to stay within of physical nature.
Lithaladhwen: (I don't think that Bill and Holly have met, though Zyvanna met her briefly when Kumo was in his huge and evil form.)
Lithaladhwen: What are we talking about?
AngeloState606: (Indeed.)
Der DWSage: That's rather, y'know, the basis of technology.
Der DWSage: Whether it's possible to get to the stars without magic or the help of a God.
AngeloState606: Well...when you look around at the technology present in this day and age, I'm sure at one point in the past it was considered impossible.
Der DWSage: Bill Roadsign, by the by. Flute-player and apparently playwrite, at your service.
Lithaladhwen: Oh. I think you can. Depends on which stars.
AngeloState606: What say you?
Lithaladhwen: I don't know. I've heard things but I don't know if they're true. *shrug*
Lithaladhwen: I think in terms of magic, so it doesn't always make as much sense to me.
Der DWSage: *Headshake*
Lithaladhwen: (Have Holly and Sorune met?)
Der DWSage: The distance you can cover in a year at the speed of light...
Der DWSage: (...Yes! Briefly, in the park, a while back.)
Der DWSage: *Mental calculation*
AngeloState606: *Chuckles* No matter. We will leave traveling to the stars the responsibility of our descendents.
Der DWSage: 9.46 times 10 to the 15th meters. That's 946, with fifteen zeroes behind it.
Lithaladhwen: Too many zeroes.
Der DWSage: *Nod*
Der DWSage: The nearest star is two hundred times that distance.
Der DWSage: Roughly. I didn't have time to get out a ruler and really measure, and all that.
Lithaladhwen: That would have to be a very long ruler.
AngeloState606: *Realizes she has not properly greeted Holly* And miss...*bow-curtsy* pleased to make your acquaintance once more.
Der DWSage: *Blinks, realizes Holly has walked up* Oh, sorry. Hello again, Holly.
Lithaladhwen: ^_^ *waves*
Lithaladhwen: Hi!
Lithaladhwen: How is everyone, aside from theorizing?
AngeloState606: I don't suppose you remember me? From a while back...the incident in the alley-way with the moogle...
Der DWSage: Fairly well. I'm up to the second act in the play I'm writing, and revising the first act...
AngeloState606: I am quite well, miss.
AngeloState606: And yourself?
AngeloState606: Second act!
AngeloState606: Excellent. *wide grin*
Der DWSage: *Nods* Second act.
Lithaladhwen: I'm great! I'm thinking of going to the Forbidden Plains at some point, but I have to work up to asking Xevan. I think he won't like it.
AngeloState606: I do look forward to it's completion, Bill.
Der DWSage: Forbidden plains...you know, there's some very interesting ruins out there.
AngeloState606: Forbidden plains? Well! Good luck to you!
Der DWSage: Excellent artwork of a lost civilization, too. I was amazed.
Lithaladhwen: Well, there's apparently a stand of trees that some people say is the source of unexplained flute music.
Lithaladhwen: I want to know where it came from!
Lithaladhwen: Wait, artwork? Tell me more. What did you find?
Der DWSage: ...That sounds like a very interesting story.
AngeloState606: Flute music?
Der DWSage: *Scratches his chin...and digs in a pocket! He comes out with, well, you know. The rough sketch of what was found in AM's RP*
AngeloState606: *Ponder..ponder*
Der DWSage: That's a very rough sketch of a very, very large mural.
Der DWSage: It was probably done with a needle, while about...thirty feet tall? I can't recall offhand.
AngeloState606: (You know, this sounds like the beginning of a dirty joke: So three bards and a druid walk into a bar....)
Der DWSage: ...Stop that.
Der DWSage: Or I'm going to have to hate you for being better travelled than I am. >_>
Lithaladhwen: ....That's so neat! I want to see it! What is all this?
AngeloState606: *GLances over* Interesting.
Der DWSage: *Scratches chin*
Der DWSage: ...I have the map at home. Don't recall exact directions to it offhand, but yes.
Der DWSage: It's ruins of a lost civilization.
AngeloState606: *Grins* I would love to see that.
Lithaladhwen: ....Oh man.
Lithaladhwen: *whimpers a little* I have to see it. Can you make a map and I'll stop there while I'm out?
Der DWSage: Which may or may not still be haunted. I'll have to check on that.
AngeloState606: O.o
AngeloState606: Haunted?
Lithaladhwen: Ooh, haunted. Neat. That'll be fun.
Der DWSage: Well, targetted.
Der DWSage: Either way, it's one of those things that bear checking beforehand.
LovelyJester has entered the room.
LovelyJester: (*YAWWWN* word up.)
Lithaladhwen: *points at Sorune* You need to tell me things. All of your stories. I'm going to treat you to dinner and force you to talk for hours. ^_^
Der DWSage: That'll take a long time.
Der DWSage: I used to defend an entire world.
Der DWSage: ...No, seriously, stop that. Stop being more worldly than I am.
Lithaladhwen: Then we'll eat more than one meal. I'll just drag you away until you're done!
Der DWSage: *Chuckles, at the both of them*
LovelyJester: (What's up? open for a lex lex? I haven't had my rp fix in awhile.)
Lithaladhwen: (Hey, Lex! Playing Holly.)
Der DWSage: I'm more than twice your age, Bill. Besides, I had some help.
Der DWSage: (Playing Sorune and Bill, simultaneously.)
LovelyJester: (First gen?)
Der DWSage: (Yep.)
Lithaladhwen: (Yup.)
AngeloState606: I've not ventured that way in my travels.
AngeloState606: I'm surprised, though.
Der DWSage: >_> At the ruins? They were...um...
Der DWSage: Come to think of it, they weren't well hidden at all.
Der DWSage: It was like a huge fang sticking out of the earth.
AngeloState606: Hmph...
Lithaladhwen: I will go there.
Lithaladhwen: I'll find a way to get Xevan to go.
Lithaladhwen: Was there any interesting magical stuff there? He might like that.
Der DWSage: Ah...well, there was.
Der DWSage: *Scratches his head, a little embarassed*
Lithaladhwen: ...Aha! There. You see? It was meant to be.
Der DWSage: Except.
Lithaladhwen: You take it?
Der DWSage: Me and a few others already cleared it out. And after we were done, some guards from the castle picked the rest clean.
Lithaladhwen: Ah. Well, that's fine. We can check it out anyway.
LovelyJester: (Character requests, and where is all this grooviness?)
Der DWSage: (Streets!(
Lithaladhwen: Maybe he'll want to know about the people who made them.
Der DWSage: >_>;
Der DWSage: No problem there.
Lithaladhwen: (Holly has met Jazz, but there may be paradox what with the Kumo RP.)
Der DWSage: Just...if you hear mysterious voices, run.
Der DWSage: Don't stop to chat or fight, just run.
Lithaladhwen: Oh. Inside your head or outside?
Der DWSage: Outside.
Lithaladhwen: Ah. Okay.
Der DWSage: IM:I must devour this Druid's brain so that I can have all of his knowledge.
Der DWSage: *Is listening intently to all this!*
Lithaladhwen: Well. We'll just have to go to the Forbidden Plains and check out all sorts of things. We'll have an itinerary and everything.
Lithaladhwen: Perfect. ^_^
Der DWSage: *Shrug* I guess I could help with travel.
Lithaladhwen: But, like I said. I have to talk to Xevan. He'll freak if I just tell him I'm going to the Forbidden Plains.
Lithaladhwen: He got really mad when I stayed at your house. *to Sorune*
Der DWSage: Blazes, I might have to come with you too.
Der DWSage: Eh. I can't think of a safer place, really.
Der DWSage: Save for inside jail.
Lithaladhwen: Than your house? Well, it was kind of hard to explain it to him.
Lithaladhwen: *mock manly voice* Holly? Where have you been?!
Der DWSage: I've met the type, yes.
Lithaladhwen: Um... I was at Sorune's house.
Lithaladhwen: *man voice* Who is this?
Lithaladhwen: Guy I met yesterday?
Lithaladhwen: Also, I don't think he likes Ardam very much. I'm not sure why.
Der DWSage: *Shakes his head*
Der DWSage: Did you mention to him that I'm married?
Lithaladhwen: What? Why?
AngeloState606: Voices...
AngeloState606: What do the voices say?
Der DWSage: *Opens mouth and is cut off* If you don't know, you don't want to.
AngeloState606: (I'm way behind...sorry)
Der DWSage: Oh, leave this place or be doomed, that sort of thing.
Der DWSage: Ended up having to fight some sort of giant lobster thing.
Lithaladhwen: What's so important about you being married? I mean, aside from marriage being good and all.
Der DWSage: And might I add, I'm very glad Taiar was there. Never seen a person fight so well.
BlackwindIsao has left the room.
LovelyJester: (Paradox indeed.)
LovelyJester: (*Debates*)
Der DWSage: ...Tell me, what was Xevan's exact reaction?
Der DWSage: And what's his relation to you again? Just a friend?
Lithaladhwen: (Of course, there's no reason why it couldn't be before that RP. They did know each other beforehand.)
AngeloState606: Gian lobster?
AngeloState606: *Giant
Lithaladhwen: Well, sure. I mean, he's my best friend. We've been travelling together for a couple of years now. Why?
Lithaladhwen: Also, I will get the lobster story from you no matter what.
AngeloState606: *Pulls a journal type book out of a satchel resting on her hip and starts scribbling in it*
AngeloState606: *Probably something about this conversation with the flutes, giant lobsters, and voices, etc.*
BlackwindIsao has entered the room.
Lithaladhwen: Xevan was really mad that I just kind of disappeared. He thought something had happened to me, and then he found out I'd just met you and that Ardam was there and he followed me around for DAYS afterward.
Lithaladhwen: For days.
Der DWSage: (Sorry, was called away a bit.)
AngeloState606: *Puts the book back in the satchel*
AngeloState606: I must see this place.
AngeloState606: I am quite enraptured.
Der DWSage: Giant lobster. *Nods to BA's char, who I keep forgetting the name of*
Der DWSage: >_>
AngeloState606: (Zyvanna)
Der DWSage: Sounds more like a stalker than a worried friend.
Der DWSage: From that, anyway.
Lithaladhwen: Well, it's complicated. He doesn't like to admit that we're friends but we are. It just makes him uncomfortable because of...you know. Cultural issues.
AngeloState606: For days?
AngeloState606: What kind of cultural issues?
Der DWSage: Cultural?
Lithaladhwen: He's a Drow. That means he was raised around very different people than you see around here. It also means that he worries about different things than I do and sees people differently.
AngeloState606: Drow? *shudders*
AngeloState606: v.v
Lithaladhwen: What's the matter with Drow?
AngeloState606: >.>
Der DWSage: Oh, well then.
AngeloState606: v.v
Lithaladhwen: What?
Der DWSage: >_>
AngeloState606: I'm...scared of them.
Der DWSage: She has a phobia.
AngeloState606: Indeed.
Der DWSage: You fainted when Daniel turned into one, if I remember right.
AngeloState606: They frighten me.
Lithaladhwen: *firmly* Well, Xevan is fine. He's my best friend.
LovelyJester: (nVn MWAHAHA. that so makes me want to bring in Amana.)
AngeloState606: For no apparent reason, at that.t
Der DWSage: ...Daniel?
Der DWSage: A drow? Huh.
Der DWSage: *Headshake*
Der DWSage: Some people are afraid of spiders.
AngeloState606: Who is Daniel?
Der DWSage: Some are afraid of heights.
Lithaladhwen: There's nothing wrong with Xevan just because he's a Drow. *scowls*
Der DWSage: That guard who, well, turned from human to drow when he put on the king's gift.
AngeloState606: I'm not insisting that there is...
Lithaladhwen: IM: Always! Always with the "Drow are evil" things!
Der DWSage: *Back to his line of speech!* I'm afraid of blood myself.
AngeloState606: It's a problem I need to get over.
Lithaladhwen: IM: He's not evil! People need to stop saying that!
Der DWSage: Zy here just happens to be afraid of drow.
AngeloState606: I just don't know how to.
Lithaladhwen: *takes a deep breath*
CGNakibe: (Xevan: Sorry, babe. Evil as they come.)
Lithaladhwen: I'm sorry. I didn't mean to get upset. I just... *shrug* People say a lot of things about him because he's a Drow and it makes me angry.
CGNakibe: (Xevan: POSSIBLY more so. e.e)\
Der DWSage: Understandable enough.
Lithaladhwen: (Holly: You think that. But you're wrong. ^_^ )
AngeloState606: That makes a lot of sense...
Der DWSage: Before coming here, I thought that all dwarves were hardworking fellows who loved little more than staying in their shafts all day and never poking their head out for light.
Lithaladhwen: He's always been very good to me, and I just don't like people talking about him like that. Sorry I got mad. I know you didn't mean it.
AngeloState606: I didn't mean to come across as being pernicious.
Der DWSage: Whoo, was I mistaken...anyway.
AngeloState606: *Small smile*
AngeloState606: Bill is quite right, though.
OnlineHost: LovelyJester rolled 1 666-sided die: 107
AngeloState606: It just happens to be my phobia.
LovelyJester: (piss.)
Der DWSage: *Nod*
AngeloState606: vv
Der DWSage: I know people who were afraid of cotton.
AngeloState606: v.v
AngeloState606: I wish I knew how to get over it.
Lithaladhwen: Maybe you could come around sometime. I promise he's fine.
Der DWSage: Did they go naked a-YES.
AngeloState606: Perhaps...
Der DWSage: <_<
AngeloState606: *Chuckles at Bill and Sorune*
Lithaladhwen: (This is like... the worst way for her to resolve her phobia... )
Der DWSage: Holly, did I mention that Zyvanna fainted at the sight of Drow?
LovelyJester: *What an oppurtune time for a cameo!*
AngeloState606: (NOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo!)
Lithaladhwen: Fainted? Really? Well, I mean, he's fine. I'll be there with you.
AngeloState606: *Sighs heavily and looks rather downtrodden*
LovelyJester: *By golly, the object of her fears is walking down the street!*
Der DWSage: ...Let's get off this topic, shall we?
LovelyJester: *Oddly attired in all white, and whistling, and managing to read a book at the same time without bumping into things*
AngeloState606: *Sees something blue in her peripheral vision*
Der DWSage: *Oh, how unfortunate. doesn't see Amana*
AngeloState606: *Slowly turns her head*
AngeloState606: O.O
LovelyJester: (It isn't. :\ I rolled "nice" so it's her wee little brother.)
Der DWSage: *Follows gaze!*
Lithaladhwen: ...Zyvanna? *looks* Oh.
AngeloState606: *In an instant, darts off and hides behind a building*
Lithaladhwen: I... oh, man. *goes to find her*
Der DWSage: <_<
AngeloState606: (A copy of him, correct?)
LovelyJester: *Looks up from his book at the sudden movement*
Der DWSage: ...I think I'll go with.
Der DWSage: *And hey, he leaves to follow Zy!*
LovelyJester: *Raises an eyebrow*
Der DWSage: ...Eh?
Lithaladhwen: *peers around the corner* Zyvanna?
LovelyJester: ........A sale?
Der DWSage: *Shakes his head, looking at the Drow* Y'know, you look familiar.
AngeloState606: *Breathing heavily, in the fetal position*
LovelyJester: *looks about for some sort of flyer*
LovelyJester: *scratches his braided head and goes back to his chapter on Ashuran Postures*
Lithaladhwen: *crouches down next to Zyvanna and offers her a hand* Hey. Come here.
LovelyJester: *Starts whistling again and moseys down the street*
AngeloState606: *Looks up at Holly*
Lithaladhwen: *smiles* It's okay. Come here.
Der DWSage: >_>
AngeloState606: *Turns her eyes to the direction of the street*
Der DWSage: IM:I SWEAR he looks familiar.
AngeloState606: *Takes her hand, and suddenly looks kinda peeved*
Der DWSage: >_>
Der DWSage: <_<
AngeloState606: =Why am I such a damned BABY!!=
Lithaladhwen: *pulls Zyvanna over and hugs her* You gonna be okay?
AngeloState606: *Now looks embarassed*
AngeloState606: Yes...v.v
Der DWSage: =Hush, pet. You're no baby, you just have your fears.=
AngeloState606: *Bites her bottom lip and blushes*
Der DWSage: Wait, did I say pet or dear?
Lithaladhwen: (That in Elvish?)
AngeloState606: (It is in Elvish)
Lithaladhwen: Pet.
AngeloState606: It wasn't what you said. I'm...just ashamed of myself.
Lithaladhwen: Don't be! It's okay.
Der DWSage: *Shakes his head*
Der DWSage: *Again*
Der DWSage: You'd get the same reaction from me if you suddenly cut your arm, y'know.
AngeloState606: *Smiles a little*
AngeloState606: That is the only thing that frightens me...and it's silly.
Lithaladhwen: It's not silly. It's fine. You can work on it.
AngeloState606: Show me a spider the size of a house...I'll be alright. Show me a giant centipede eating a whole village...I'll shake it off.
AngeloState606: (Giant centipedes eating things...*SHUDDER*)
Der DWSage: Girl, do I need to beat sense into your head?
AngeloState606: I believe so...
Der DWSage: I'll do it. You're not an idiot, so stop the pity party.
AngeloState606: (Zyvanna: But do it all kinky and sexy-like! *wink*)
CGNakibe: (Giant Hairy Centipedes smoking hash?)
AngeloState606: You're right, Bill.
Der DWSage: You are Zyvanna, one of the most intelligent and life-filled people I've met. You. Are. Not. A. Baby.
Lithaladhwen: *gives Zyvanna another hug* Want to go back outside now? I bet he's gone.
AngeloState606: *Starting to feel a lot better*
AngeloState606: *Nods and smiles* Yeah...let's go.
Lithaladhwen: *stands and dusts herself off*
AngeloState606: *Stands and follows Bill and Holly*
Der DWSage: *Heads out!*
Der DWSage: *Scratching his head as he looks at the wandering drow's back*
Der DWSage: So strange. Could've SWORN I met him somewhere...
AngeloState606: (X!)
AngeloState606: (That was Amana pretending to be Elan, right?)
LovelyJester: (nope.)
LovelyJester: (just elan.)
AngeloState606: (....how?)
Der DWSage: <_< So. I was wondering.
LovelyJester: (DUH!)
LovelyJester: (Oh yeah. it would have to be amana.)
Der DWSage: (Does he have an evil twin brother named Nale?)
LovelyJester: (:\ We need to fucking finish that motherfucker.)
AngeloState606: (No effin' shit. I've been saying that for about a month now.)
Der DWSage: The three of us need to play together at some point.
Lithaladhwen: Oh! Yeah, we should.
AngeloState606: That would be fabulous, Bill.
AngeloState606: What a splendid idea.
Lithaladhwen: I was going to go practice, but I guess I can do that later if you want to make other plans.
Der DWSage: *Chuckles* Well...I know a pretty wide variety of songs, but nothing really stellar.
Der DWSage: And this is the point where I'm the uneducated rube.
AngeloState606: It's okay, Sorune. We'll need an audience.
AngeloState606: What instrument do you play, Holly?
Lithaladhwen: (I need a picture of the whip dagger thing.)
LovelyJester: (tempted to join in. But It's goin' groovy without ze lex.)
Lithaladhwen: Flute. *pulls it around from where it's been hanging dismantled at her side*
AngeloState606: Ah!
Der DWSage: Two flutists. This'll be interesting.
AngeloState606: One could do tempo and the other rythm?
Lithaladhwen: Whatever you want. I can just improvise based on whatever else is going on. I also sing if that helps.
Lithaladhwen: *shrugs*
Der DWSage: *Ponders!*
Der DWSage: If we had something with lyrics, that'd certainly be good.
AngeloState606: I sing as well...but only in Elvish
Der DWSage: *Snicker*
Der DWSage: ^_^ Sorry, sorry...it's just that I'm remembering my attempts at singing in Orcish.
Lithaladhwen: I can sing in Elvish. My father's an Elf.
Lithaladhwen: So I speak it pretty well. That work for you?
Der DWSage: *Nods* I spent enough time with an Elvish teacher to sing it myself.
LovelyJester: (I can't help myself.)
Der DWSage: ...I can speak Elvish.
LovelyJester: *Zyv feels something land on her shoulder*
Lithaladhwen: (For the record, she's totally human. Obviously so. I'm not sneaking an Elf in here unannounced.)
Lithaladhwen: (Oh shit! Lex! Yadi and Corrigan!)
LovelyJester: (XD YES!)
AngeloState606: *Looks at what has landed on her shoulder*
LovelyJester: (YES YES YES!)
Der DWSage: <_<
Lithaladhwen: (Shit. We must. I'll think of something!)
LovelyJester: (That needs to happen at some point.)
LovelyJester: *There is a bright red, winged rat on her shoulder*
AngeloState606: Oh! Hello, there! *Pulls him down and cradles him, scratching his tummy*
LovelyJester: =n_n=
AngeloState606: Not a fox today, hmm?
Der DWSage: Huh.
Lithaladhwen: Um. Hm. Oh, I'll tell you what. I'll be at the Ivory Horn tonight. If you guys want to come along, we could all perform together!
LovelyJester: *turns into the more pettable fox variation*
Lithaladhwen: *watches the rat and waves to him*
Lithaladhwen: Oh, neat. What's his name?
LovelyJester: The rat is easier to fly in.
AngeloState606: *Grins* There you are! *still petting/scratching*
Lithaladhwen: Hi! I'm Holly!
AngeloState606: I imagine!
LovelyJester: Hello.
LovelyJester: I am Corrigan.
Lithaladhwen: Hi Corrigan! Nice to meet you.
AngeloState606: Singing Orcish...
LovelyJester: THere is to be music?
AngeloState606: Interesting.
Der DWSage: Sorune Yohlm.
Der DWSage: You don't want to try it.
Der DWSage: You'll need cough medicine for a week straight.
LovelyJester: *bobs his foxy head in turn to each, though he still has his ridiculous fairy wings*
AngeloState606: Heh
Lithaladhwen: I think. I'm... not sure what I have to do still today. I think that I have to meet Xevan in about half an hour.
AngeloState606: I better not, then.
LovelyJester: *looks mildly disappointed*
Lithaladhwen: I'll be out tonight, though. I'm scheduled for the Ivory Horn, like I said. They told me I could come. ^_^
AngeloState606: I need my vocal chords in tip-top shape just for everyday bardin.
Der DWSage: *Nods*
Lithaladhwen: So you guys could come too.
LovelyJester: *bobs his head*
Lithaladhwen: That would give time for warming up or whatever you needed to do.
LovelyJester: For singing?
Der DWSage: >_>
Der DWSage: I'm almost tempted to sing a bar.
AngeloState606: That sounds spectacular.
LovelyJester: IM: =Too many stupid mortals, but music!=
LovelyJester: *tail flaps about lazily from side to side*
AngeloState606: *Still petting Corrigan*
Lithaladhwen: I'll tell you what. I'm going to go check in, and then I'll meet you guys there around dinnertime?
LovelyJester: *Content with such!*
AngeloState606: *Smiles* Of course!
Der DWSage: Sounds good.
Lithaladhwen: ^_^ Great!
Der DWSage: And I'm going to be drafted for storytime, I take it?
LovelyJester: *looks about and sniffs at the air, trying to make sure the coast is truly clear*
Lithaladhwen: Yes! Afterward I'm feeding you and squeezing stories out of you!
Lithaladhwen: ^_^ I'll see you guys tonight! And it was nice to meet you, Corrigan.
LovelyJester: .....*Grunts*
Lithaladhwen: *heads off to inform her crazy Drow guardian of her plans*
LovelyJester: *pants merrily* I pushed the blue devil into the mud today.
Der DWSage: >_>
Der DWSage: <_<
Der DWSage: Y'know, I should get going myself.
AngeloState606: *Chuckles* Excellent.
AngeloState606: And her reaction?
LovelyJester: She makes good screaming.
Lithaladhwen: (Wait, Sage!)
LovelyJester: *Tail wag*
Der DWSage: Celine's home now, and she's...well, I should just get going if there's nothing urgent.
LovelyJester: Though then she thought I was being flirtatious, and started lobbing dirt at me.
Lithaladhwen: (I'm not retiring for the evening. I'm switching to you-know-who. : ( )
AngeloState606: *Face palm*
Lithaladhwen: *Zyvanna finds two foxes sniffing at her heels*
AngeloState606: Oh, you poor, poor soul. *smiles*
Der DWSage: (No worries, Ash. I'm just trying to seperate my characters a bit.)
LovelyJester: *Wrinkles his nose* I should have made the mud into rock around her feet.
AngeloState606: *Looks down at her feet*
Der DWSage: ...Who are you talking about, anyway?
AngeloState606: IM: More foxes?
BlackwindIsao has left the room.
LovelyJester: ......The devil!
Lithaladhwen: *One is a fox, and the other is a fox.*
LovelyJester: The blue devil!
LovelyJester: =6.6=
AngeloState606: O.o
AngeloState606: *Reaches down and pats one of them on the head*
LovelyJester: *looks down at the other foxes, and gives a good sniff*
Der DWSage: 6.6
Der DWSage: Alex?
LovelyJester: IM: Would it be rude to eat something that currently wears a face like mine?
Lithaladhwen: *One sits to enjoy the attention. The other heads over to Sorune and pokes him in the leg with one paw.*
LovelyJester: IM: Naaaaaaah.....
Lithaladhwen: *Alex yips at the mention of his name.*
BlackwindIsao has entered the room.
LovelyJester: *Wriggles to be put down*
Der DWSage: =Something the matter, or just poking about?=
Der DWSage: *In, y'know. Foxy*
Lithaladhwen: =Hey, Sorune! Should be an Elf?=
Der DWSage: IM:And now he speaks more languages than me.
Der DWSage: IM:It's not fair, I tells ya.
Der DWSage: =Eh? What do you mean?=
Lithaladhwen: *Changes from an elf form to one that Sorune is familiar with at least.*
BlackwindIsao has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: ( I link to things: http://mysidia.org/rpgww/index.php?title=Yadali )
Lithaladhwen: I think I should be.
Lithaladhwen: *whirls to address Corrigan and Zyvanna* And I'm not a devil by the way. I'm Yadali.
Der DWSage: ...
LovelyJester: =T_T= Let me loose I say!
LovelyJester: =o_o= You are not the devil.
Der DWSage: *Shakes his head* Well, not by conventional descriptions at least.
LovelyJester: The devil wears baby blue.
Lithaladhwen: *points to Alex* He's not the devil either. He's a knight.
Der DWSage: I'm sure several drow have a different opinion.
Der DWSage: 6.6
Lithaladhwen: *yips a little*
Der DWSage: Is that so?
AngeloState606: (Cheesecake: Finished!)
LovelyJester: (Whore.)
AngeloState606: *Puts Corrigan down*
AngeloState606: Well, hello, there, Yadali.
Lithaladhwen: Of course he's a knight. I said so, didn't I?
Lithaladhwen: Hi there. I don't think I know you.
Lithaladhwen: Do I?
LovelyJester: *Stands and stretches out his legs*
Der DWSage: Bill Roadsign. Just a travelling bard.
Lithaladhwen: Hey there Bill Roadsign. Yadali Volpecula at your service. *bows*
LovelyJester: *And morphs into his fey body, and crouchs regarding the fox and the "fox"*
Lithaladhwen: *Is now in Elf form, so less foxy and more humanoid*
LovelyJester: (Yes, I know.)
Lithaladhwen: Oh! You're fey. That's neat. That explains things that were not explained until I knew things that are related to the first things.
Lithaladhwen: *nod*
LovelyJester: IM: Damned. Seems I can't eat either of them.
LovelyJester: Of course I'm fey.
Lithaladhwen: *Alex ceases his attention to Zyvanna and runs over to Yadi's side*
LovelyJester: Why else would I have these ridiculous wings?
AngeloState606: That's interesting that you can shape-shift into a fox, as well.
AngeloState606: Are you fey?
Der DWSage: >_>
Lithaladhwen: I don't know. I'd have them if I'd thought to.
Der DWSage: She's a Druid, that's all.
LovelyJester: *growls a little bit, more at the wings on his back than to her, exposing a nice set of feral fangs*
AngeloState606: Oh! A druid!
Lithaladhwen: I'm not fey, though I've met lots of nice ones. Sorune knows things about me and being a Druid.
Der DWSage: 6.6
Der DWSage: Stop that.
AngeloState606: Why do you growl, Corrigan?
Lithaladhwen: *curious head tilt*
Lithaladhwen: (For the record, maybe I should describe Yadali?)
AngeloState606: (Sure)
Lithaladhwen: (She's wearing shades of green, of course. She's also got short grey hair that stands up on top of her head like dandelion fluff. Alex looks like a normal red fox.)
LovelyJester: I'm thinking about ripping them off.
Lithaladhwen: Why? I like them.
AngeloState606: *Pats him on the shoulder*
LovelyJester: Because I can't hide from the blue devil properly.
Der DWSage: There are cleaner ways to do that.
Der DWSage: Less painful, too.
Lithaladhwen: Who's the blue devil? Someone bothering you? Want me to eat him?
LovelyJester: I can change into what I want sure, but the damn wings stay.
Der DWSage: >_>
Lithaladhwen: *makes chomping motions with her hands*
LovelyJester: The blue devil.
Der DWSage: I can paint them brown.
AngeloState606: You just need to make the blue devil stop liking you, Corrigan.
LovelyJester: A fey girl.
LovelyJester: With blue hair.
Der DWSage: ...
Lithaladhwen: Fey girl. Um. Blue hair? She have a name?
LovelyJester: *Growls deeply*
Der DWSage: IM:*Mental check! Does Whisper have blue hair?*
AngeloState606: Whisper.
Der DWSage: Yeeeep.
LovelyJester: *flinches at the name*
Der DWSage: Shoulda known.
Lithaladhwen: Oh! I've met her. She's okay, but I don't think I'd spend lots and lots of time with her.
Der DWSage: *Chuckles* She's harmless. Really.
AngeloState606: *Pats him on the shuolder again*
Der DWSage: Just...don't let her kiss you.
AngeloState606: He's having a bit of trouble getting rid of her.
LovelyJester: Not harmless.
LovelyJester: Infatuated.
Lithaladhwen: Don't take off your wings just because of her! I'll maul her and then everything will be fine!
Der DWSage: Oh.
AngeloState606: *Grins*
Der DWSage: >_> No, Yadali
Lithaladhwen: IM: That's terrible! They're his wings!
AngeloState606: Well! There's your answer, Corrigan!
Lithaladhwen: *pouts* You can't tell me what to do, Sorune. I outrank you.
AngeloState606: Yadali has volunteered to "take care" of Whisper.
LovelyJester: I'll maul her. I'd rather eat her.
LovelyJester: *crosses his arms*
Der DWSage: No one here is going to maim Whisper. She's a good friend of mine, and I'll stand between her and anyone who attempts to maul her.
AngeloState606: Perhaps you may have the ability to teach her some manners, then.
Der DWSage: Doubtful.
LovelyJester: *looks to Sorune hopefully* Then make her .....desist!
Lithaladhwen: *Yadali gets close enough to Sorune's face that she could probably touch noses with him if she wanted*
Der DWSage: But I could distract her, or teach you how to distract her.
AngeloState606: O.o
LovelyJester: I know how to distract her.
Der DWSage: *Takes one tactical step back*
LovelyJester: I push her off something and run away fast.
Der DWSage: Yes?
Lithaladhwen: Teglach Sorune Yohlm. I don't take orders. It's good that you'd defend her. But make her be nice if you care.
LovelyJester: She is not nice. She is mad. Like most of our people.
Der DWSage: I never ordered. I simply said that you wouldn't, because I'd be standing between you and her.
Lithaladhwen: Oh. Yeah, fey can be that way.
Lithaladhwen: And you shouldn't say things like that just because you know I won't eat you, Sorune. It isn't fair.
Der DWSage: ^_^ All's fair in love and war.
Lithaladhwen: You love her then? Or are we at war?
AngeloState606: *Sighs* Or! You could do what we talked about a while back, Corrigan.
Der DWSage: Well, she loves everything.
Der DWSage: That count?
AngeloState606: Make her jealous...
Der DWSage: <_< BAD idea.
AngeloState606: Make her get over you...
Lithaladhwen: *throws her hands up in frustration* Whatever.
LovelyJester: Jealous?
Lithaladhwen: I'm not worrying about you foreign people and your drama.
LovelyJester: I'd not wish that on a creature.
Der DWSage: *Sigh*
LovelyJester: ......Or maybe I would.
Der DWSage: You really want her to leave you alone?
LovelyJester: If I could watch from a safe distance.
AngeloState606: Find a new lover...
LovelyJester: ....She is not my lover!
Der DWSage: I can think of two ways.
LovelyJester: *Stands up and stomps his foot*
AngeloState606: *Peers over at Yadali*
Lithaladhwen: ... You're looking at me.
LovelyJester: I do not want to make her babies.
Lithaladhwen: Why do you do that?
Der DWSage: *Scratches his chin* Then listen to me a moment.
AngeloState606: *Sneers at Corrigan* I never said she was your lover.
AngeloState606: Babies?
AngeloState606: Who said anything about babies.
Der DWSage: You could let her think she hurt you, say by kissing you...usually the side-effects from that are enough.
Der DWSage: Say that you want to be left alone so that she can't hurt you again.
AngeloState606: O.o
AngeloState606: Worth a shot....
Der DWSage: If necessary, I'll tell her what you really did so that she won't be as eager to make amends.
Lithaladhwen: *sighs* IM: Igalans are crazy. No one here makes sense. Even the Druids are weird.
Der DWSage: Second idea?
Der DWSage: Let me have twenty minutes with her.
LovelyJester: >_> I will bite her lips should she kiss me.
Lithaladhwen: *snickers*
Der DWSage: The best part is that these ideas aren't mutually exclusive.
AngeloState606: Well, Corrigan...you don't seem to be liking our ideas...
AngeloState606: What do YOU have in mind?
LovelyJester: Convincing the hunt to make her the next.
LovelyJester: *Grins widely at that*
Der DWSage: >_>
Der DWSage: Uh, no.
Lithaladhwen: The hunt?
AngeloState606: 9.9
Der DWSage: Because, like I said, that'll get me involved.
LovelyJester: *Crosses his arms*
Der DWSage: And I have a lot of experience with deterring physical pain to people I like.
LovelyJester: The hunt.
Lithaladhwen: What's the hunt?
LovelyJester: The meat eating heretics of the fey.
Lithaladhwen: Oh! I guess that makes sense.
AngeloState606: In other words, she would become the prey...
Der DWSage: <_<
LovelyJester: Yes. *smiles*
Lithaladhwen: Sorune, do Druids here eat meat? I haven't seen any that do.
Der DWSage: *Crosses arms. Gets a very adult tone to his voice* No. No hunting Whisper.
Der DWSage: And not many, Yadali. I think the queen does on occasion, though.
LovelyJester: Then she might want to steer clear of the Hunts grounds.
Lithaladhwen: Oh. See, we eat meat all the time. If you want to escape her that badly you guys could come back to Ka'thalar. No one would bother you there.
LovelyJester: Or not follow me into the woods anymore, as it is my job to collect prey.
Der DWSage: *Sigh*
Der DWSage: Girl's nutty even for a fey...
LovelyJester: SEE!
LovelyJester: HE UNDERSTANDS!
LovelyJester: *points*
Der DWSage: Nutty. Not dangerous. And not...something you should harm.
Der DWSage: Think of it as a three year old girl in a twenty year old body.
LovelyJester: ......A three year old that wants to tumble in the bushes?
Lithaladhwen: *sighs in frustration and sits down on the ground with Alex*
LovelyJester: *raises an eyebrow*
Der DWSage: That too.
Der DWSage: Three year old with hormones.
LovelyJester: ........I still think the best solution is to let her get eaten.
Lithaladhwen: Sorune, what would you say if I told you some immature ass was trying to get in my pants and wouldn't leave me alone?
AngeloState606: *Seems equally frustrated and plops down on the ground and starts strumming quietly on the lute*
Der DWSage: <_<
Lithaladhwen: Hm?
Der DWSage: Clobber 'im. If I didn't know who he was.
Lithaladhwen: Hypocrite.
AngeloState606: And if you did know who he was?
Lithaladhwen: Or maybe sexist. I can't decide.
Der DWSage: It'd depend.
Der DWSage: And no, it's the fact that I know who she is.
Der DWSage: And, well, the fact that she has a reason for being less...controlled than even your average fey.
AngeloState606: Nothing excuses that stupidity...
AngeloState606: Nothing.
Der DWSage: *Headshake*
Der DWSage: Let me talk with her before you try this hunt business.
AngeloState606: A human like that could get thrown into a mental institution for behaving that way...
Der DWSage: And yes, he could.
LovelyJester: The blue demon wears pigtails, that does not make it less of a demon.
Der DWSage: He'd then be left there to rot, as our new social leper.
AngeloState606: Indeed.
Lithaladhwen: *sigh*
Der DWSage: I have very little respect for our mental institutions.
LovelyJester: *Crouchs again and draws idly in the dirt with one of his long fingernails*
AngeloState606: If humans are inexcusible...neither are fey...or elves...or orcs, druids, the list goes on.
LovelyJester: Fey worship madness.
Der DWSage: If I did have respect for mental institutions, I would've called them on Yadali here.
LovelyJester: *Snorts slightly*
Der DWSage: So, that card doesn't work on me.
Der DWSage: So sorry.
Lithaladhwen: *strongly accented Druid* =What do you know.=
LovelyJester: So, two for eating her........
Der DWSage: =I know that society has some very odd quirks when it comes to madness.=
LovelyJester: Against? *laughs*
Lithaladhwen: I'm just saying. There's only one way that nature deals with harassment. Killing and eating.
Der DWSage: Mm.
Lithaladhwen: If I were harassing someone, I'd expect him to stand up for himself.
Der DWSage: And civilization has a variety of ways, most of them involving talking.
Der DWSage: It's one of its few good points.
AngeloState606: *Has decided that her opinion has no worth in this conversation and is staying out of it now*
AngeloState606: Talking...
Der DWSage: *Has totally left the scene by now*
Lithaladhwen: I'm getting so tired of civilization. I need to just ... agh. Whatever.
AngeloState606: Talking when the others won't listen.
AngeloState606: How laughable.
LovelyJester: *pulls his hair down and then holds his hand on each side of his head to make pigtails*
Der DWSage: <_<
LovelyJester: *Bounces around sorune, making an EEEE noise*
Lithaladhwen: *cracks a smile* Sorune, you made a friend.
Der DWSage: Now you just need the yellow sundress.
LovelyJester: You can't talk to this. *flops the pigtails a little*
Der DWSage: Yes. Yes I can.
Lithaladhwen: IM: I wonder if I'll be able to come back. I mean, I'm sure that we could find out when the next airship is coming....
Der DWSage: Because, y'see, she does listen to some people.
AngeloState606: Sedation makes it possible?
Lithaladhwen: IM: I guess there's no way to know.
Der DWSage: I'm one of them.
Lithaladhwen: =Damn. I'm not in the mood for this.=
Lithaladhwen: *Alex whimpers and cuddles against her a bit.*
LovelyJester: *Flops the pigtails* It's always! "Let us heaaaaaal! I wish to hear the bovine poetry recital! SHUT UP JIVE TURKEY LET US MAKE HOWLY SOUNDS!"
AngeloState606: *Chuckles*
Der DWSage: <_< Look, you can give me twenty minutes to talk with her, or I fight your Hunt tooth, nail, and claw with every resource I have.
LovelyJester: *Regains his composure and pulls back his hair*
Der DWSage: Which is quite a bit.
AngeloState606: Perhaps, when you talk to her next, you may persuade her to be more communicable to others.
LovelyJester: >_> And then the hunt would eat your flesh.
LovelyJester: ......Personally not wise. Human tastes awful.
Lithaladhwen: *lies down on the sidewalk with her fox and ignores the group for now in favor of her own musings*
Der DWSage: That's supposing they win.
Der DWSage: 6.6
Lithaladhwen: *mutters* Drow is worse.
LovelyJester: ......Really?
Lithaladhwen: *nods*
Der DWSage: I'll take your word for it.
LovelyJester: *to Yadali* I've not tried that yet....
Lithaladhwen: Drow are all skinny and gamey.
AngeloState606: Drow taste bad?
Lithaladhwen: You should only eat them to make a point.
LovelyJester: .......Cannot be worse than dwarf.
AngeloState606: <.<
Lithaladhwen: Oh, I wouldn't know. Dwarves never raided us. Never had to eat one.
Der DWSage: IM:I don't see how these people can stomach eating anything that was alive and thinking.
AngeloState606: IM: This is not a conversation for me!
LovelyJester: Gristle through and through.....
Der DWSage: IM:But, ah well. To each their own.
Lithaladhwen: *smirks*
LovelyJester: *Wrinkles his nose*
Lithaladhwen: Anyway, you know what? Be sexually harassed in what way seems best to you.
LovelyJester: ......To not be sexually harrassed.
AngeloState606: IM: *Lalalala*SEX! I need SEX! Sex sex sex.
LovelyJester: ......I'm sticking with the plan of biting her.
LovelyJester: Talk to you if you want Sorune.
Der DWSage: (Sorune:...As the only eligible male here, why do I suddenly feel uncomfortable?)
LovelyJester: But if she bothers me again. I'm biting her until I draw blood.
Der DWSage: That would be bad, actually.
Der DWSage: <_<;
LovelyJester: *Snorts*
LovelyJester: *turns back into a fox and scratches behind his ear*
Der DWSage: But I'll talk with her.
Lithaladhwen: IM: He's cute but I think he has problems.
Der DWSage: IM:Y'know, life would be so much more simple if I just became a hermit.
Der DWSage: IM:Just me, Celine, Sher, and my garden.
LovelyJester: ........*sniffs at the air*
LovelyJester: =HELL!-
AngeloState606: *Still strumming on the lute, eyes closed and grinning*
Lithaladhwen: What?
Der DWSage: 9.9
LovelyJester: I can smell her.
Der DWSage: *Nod* Stay here then.
Der DWSage: Perhaps we can get this all settled.
Lithaladhwen: =Oh, whatever. None of you people acn solve problems yourselves.=
LovelyJester: You'd think......
Der DWSage: =Depends on the problem, Yadi.=
LovelyJester: I'd proven today I don't want to see her damn face.
Lithaladhwen: IM: How the hell am I supposed to work with them? I don't think I'm cut out for this.
Der DWSage: =Some of us believe that eating another doesn't automatically solve everything.=
Lithaladhwen: =No it doesn't. This is a pattern.=
AngeloState606: IM: Mmmm....sex.
Der DWSage: =Ever tried ransoming Drow leaders back to their people?=
LovelyJester: *And soon the devil herself lands in their midst*
Lithaladhwen: =I don't mind helping, but no one seems to know whether they want to be big men and handle everything, or whether they want everything done for them.=
Lithaladhwen: =And yes, Sorune. I have.=
LovelyJester: COOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRY.
Der DWSage: *Oh, hey, Sorune steps in-between the two right-quick*
LovelyJester: =e.e=
LovelyJester: *Grrrrrowwwwwl*
Lithaladhwen: =Don't treat me like I'm dumb. I've been fighting off Drow since before I needed to wear pants.=
Der DWSage: Whisper! Gimme a hug!
LovelyJester: ......
LovelyJester: HUG!
LovelyJester: *Glomps*
LovelyJester: *Attaches*
Lithaladhwen: IM: Dealing with Drow. He needs to come back with me and try to deal with them then.
Der DWSage: IM:Aaaand that buys me some time.
Der DWSage: =Little busy. Be with you in a minute.=
LovelyJester: *Decides to sit there*
Lithaladhwen: =Sod off.=
Der DWSage: =I'll talk with you later, then.=
Lithaladhwen: IM: What does he know about our problems with Drow?
LovelyJester: *Let's go and tries to dance around him to the object of her affections*
Der DWSage: ^_^ So, Whisper. What's this about you bugging Corry?
Lithaladhwen: *lies on the ground with Alex and watches the dumb show*
LovelyJester: I want him to have my babies. *singsong*
Der DWSage: *No dice. He should play basketball. Defense*
AngeloState606: O,-
LovelyJester: *growling is growing*
AngeloState606: HIM have YOUR babies?
LovelyJester: Yep!
Der DWSage: And that growling he's doing makes you think he wants you to have babies with him?
Lithaladhwen: *watches*
LovelyJester: ....Of course!
LovelyJester: He's shy!
Der DWSage: <_<
Lithaladhwen: IM: I should sic her on Chandler. That would be entertaining enough to warrant the risk that one of them would get hurt.
LovelyJester: Idiot devil! I can't stand you!
Der DWSage: I've heard lions growl more quietly than that when they're backed up in a corner against a man with a crossbow.
AngeloState606: *Returns to happy sex thoughts, drowning out present circumstances*
LovelyJester: .......*pouts*
Der DWSage: 6.6
LovelyJester: He's not a lion though. He's in love.
Lithaladhwen: IM: This is so dumb. Great flying Wistaire, he reminds me of my mother. Damn.
Der DWSage: Why do you want him to...ah...have your babies so badly, anyway?
LovelyJester: .......I like his head. It's a good shape.
Lithaladhwen: IM: She's right. It is. He has a good head.
AngeloState606: IM: Lalalla...SEX!
Der DWSage: Yes, but I hear that head snapping at you whenever you get close to getting around me.
LovelyJester: And he turns into things.
Der DWSage: <_<
LovelyJester: Animal things!
Der DWSage: IM:We need to take this girl to a strip club.
Lithaladhwen: IM: Also a plus. Her reasoning and her aims seem valid enough.
Der DWSage: IM:The result would amuse me too much for the rest of me to be horrified.
Der DWSage: Whisper?
Der DWSage: I hate to tell you this.
Der DWSage: He can't have your babies.
LovelyJester: And he wears a butt flap!
LovelyJester: o.o I'm sure he could. I know how to make them bake.
Der DWSage: Whisper, only girls can have babies.
AngeloState606: O.-
AngeloState606: BAKE?
AngeloState606: IM: Dammit! Quit snapping me out of my sex-thoughts!
Lithaladhwen: Whisper? I have a better chance of having your babies than he does.
LovelyJester: Yes!
LovelyJester: You bake the babies.
LovelyJester: In the oven in your stomach.
Der DWSage: ...
Lithaladhwen: I turn into animal things and if I do say so myself, my head is pretty decent.
Der DWSage: *Head to palm*
Lithaladhwen: So. Why him?
Lithaladhwen: Why not me?
LovelyJester: .......
Der DWSage: Whisper, only women have ovens in their stomachs.
Lithaladhwen: I'm not offering, I'm curious.
LovelyJester: Red is good?
LovelyJester: *nods, this explains things perfectly.*
Der DWSage: Men have...uh...doughmakers.
Lithaladhwen: Fair. *points to her hair and it is red and fluffy instead of grey and fluffy*
LovelyJester: ....that shoot baby pods!
Der DWSage: But only pods.
LovelyJester: You mix it with magical grow juice hidden in the stomach!
Lithaladhwen: IM: Her understanding of reproduction is ...she's dumb.
Der DWSage: Yes. But you'd be having the babies, not him.
AngeloState606: *Has a rather horrified look on her face*
LovelyJester: That makes an egg. After you bake it.
LovelyJester: *Looks terribly amused with herself*
Lithaladhwen: *shakes her head violently and her hair turns grey again*
Der DWSage: IM:Sweet lords, I'm talking about the birds and the bees with a fey.
LovelyJester: No Whisper. I will not, and what they are saying is true.
AngeloState606: *Back to happy sex thoughts!*
Der DWSage: >_> The egg will have to be in you though, Whisper.
LovelyJester: But you could Cory! You could change into the baby carrier...
Der DWSage: Nope.
LovelyJester: You change into things, so you could hold the egg.
Der DWSage: Same sex only.
AngeloState606: IM: SEX sex sex.
Lithaladhwen: *sigh*
LovelyJester: *sigh* No.
LovelyJester: Damnit.
Lithaladhwen: *begins growling softly to Alex, because that's the only productive conversation she'll get here*
LovelyJester: I will not bake a damned egg.
Der DWSage: He has to stay a man, no matter what he changes into. Are we clear on this?
LovelyJester: I will put one in a woman if I damned well desire!
LovelyJester: And it's not with you!
Der DWSage: IM:YES. Get angry.
Lithaladhwen: *one of her ears twitches as she hears that*
Lithaladhwen: IM: Huh. His understanding is impeccable. Good sign.
Der DWSage: IM:If it'll keep her from getting hunted, I'll gladly take her being hurt emotionally to being killed.
LovelyJester: *....that's it, the fey girl starts up a wail*
LovelyJester: ........Mind control!
AngeloState606: -.O
LovelyJester: *points an accusing finger at Sorune and flies off*
Der DWSage: IM:Oh hells.
AngeloState606: *Sex thoughts interrupted again*
AngeloState606: Damn silly female.
LovelyJester: *Tail wag*
Der DWSage: *Forehead. Palm.*
AngeloState606: See, Sorune.
AngeloState606: This is the result of "TALKING!"
Der DWSage: Like I said. Three year old in an adult body.
LovelyJester: Idiot.
AngeloState606: That wonderful device of TALKING.
Der DWSage: <_<
Der DWSage: Betcha she starts going after me for a while instead of you, though.
LovelyJester: <_< Likely not.
LovelyJester: .......She's exclusively interested in people with red hair.
Der DWSage: Well, she obviously blames me.
Lithaladhwen: I'm sure you'll be very happy together, Sorune. Great talking and conversations in that relationship.
LovelyJester: Her nymph form is stunning though.
Der DWSage: So she'll be ranting at me for a while instead of you.
LovelyJester: Too bad it's attached to "EEEEEEEEEEEE"
Lithaladhwen: IM: Only red hair? Really have to sic her on Chandler.
LovelyJester: *licks a paw*
LovelyJester: You're probably in the clear.
LovelyJester: She'll get distracted by a shiny piece of glass on the road and be captivated for days.
AngeloState606: Let's lock her in a room full of glass, then...
Der DWSage: But she wants you to have her babies.
LovelyJester: Broken? n_n
Der DWSage: If it weren't such an odd thing, I'd say you should be flattered.
AngeloState606: Indeed! ^.^
Lithaladhwen: You could ransom her to the Drow. Sorune seems to think Drow are good with those sorts of agreements.
Lithaladhwen: e_e
AngeloState606: IM: Drow...
Der DWSage: >_>
Der DWSage: *Sigh*
AngeloState606: IM: ...SEx...sex!
LovelyJester: <_< Wouldn't......
LovelyJester: she......be anti drow?
Lithaladhwen: Don't know. Don't care.
LovelyJester: ........Would she not make their heads explode?
LovelyJester: .......Might be entertaining.
Lithaladhwen: Good. Get rid of ten thousand problems for me.
Der DWSage: Yadi, I spent countless years of my life protecting a world, and most importantly, keeping countries from going to war.
Lithaladhwen: I hate those fucking Drow.
LovelyJester: *cocks his head to one side*
Der DWSage: 'Talking' is something I hold in high regard.
Lithaladhwen: Don't tell me how to protect my own people, Sorune. You don't know.
Lithaladhwen: You can't negotiate with these Drow.
Der DWSage: *Shrug*
LovelyJester: You are at war with them?
Lithaladhwen: I know what happens when you don't protect yourself and teach them where the line is. You apparently don't.
Der DWSage: Perhaps you can't. I won't know without actually being there.
Lithaladhwen: You'd get my people killed.
Der DWSage: No, I'm fairly sure I'd get only me killed.
Lithaladhwen: *to Corrigan* They run raids, or did for a while. They've mostly learned their lesson now.
Der DWSage: Not much better, but still better.
Lithaladhwen: Sorune? I should tell you how we split off from our community back in the day. Might make you like... know things.
Lithaladhwen: Then the things that you say would have some basis in our reality.
Lithaladhwen: IM: DAMMIT
Der DWSage: That might help, yes.
Lithaladhwen: IM: I don't even know what's happening there. I ...cannot stay here. Not much longer.
LovelyJester: .....So...destroy them?
Lithaladhwen: Too many Drow raids. Some people didn't know when to fight and when to run. We were the ones who knew to run. Everyone else died.
AngeloState606: *Stands clutching her lute, looking somewhat dazed with a silly grin on her face and heads in the direction of the Ashuran temple*
LovelyJester: (PRAY!)
Lithaladhwen: Well, nearly, as reports go.
AngeloState606: IM: SEXIN' TIME!
LovelyJester: (PRAY HARD!)
AngeloState606: (Oh yes! SO HAAARD.)
Lithaladhwen: Now we defend what's ours, whatever you think of us for it.
Der DWSage: (PRAY TO HENTAIGAMI!)
Lithaladhwen: (Eew.)
Der DWSage: (And avoid the drow orgyists.)
AngeloState606: (*Snicker*)
LovelyJester: (Good thing Elan isn't there!)
AngeloState606: (Indeed.)
LovelyJester: Sounds like the Hunt and the Court.
AngeloState606: (We'll have to find out how to get rid of this phobia, though.)
LovelyJester: (............NIvvvvvvvvvvek! XD)
Lithaladhwen: *shrug* Dunno. Whatever.
AngeloState606: (*Shudder*)
LovelyJester: (DROW PROSTITUTES MAKE EVERYTHING BETTER!)
AngeloState606: (But! He's as much of a sex-freak as Zyv, it may just work!)
LovelyJester: (Ew.)
LovelyJester: ....
AngeloState606: (You gotta admit; she's pretty dang freaky)
Lithaladhwen: Drow raid, Elves die, Drow raid again, Elves counterattack, Elves die..
Der DWSage: *Ponders*
LovelyJester: Work with other people. Drow have enemies.
Lithaladhwen: So, we just wait for them to come again instead of counterattacking. Then we kill them.
Lithaladhwen: Ka'thalar isn't like here. There are more Drow than anyone else.
AngeloState606: (Night-all!)
AngeloState606 has left the room.
LovelyJester: *Goes back into his humanoid form and digs about in one of the puches at his waist*
LovelyJester: *pouches
Lithaladhwen: *points to Sorune* Think what you like. My people are alive.
LovelyJester: *pulls out a bit of raw meat wrapped in a wide leaf, and starts to eat it, leaf and all*
Der DWSage: <_<
Der DWSage: IM:Blech.
Lithaladhwen: IM: Fuck, I'm hungry. All this bullshit gives me the munchies.
Der DWSage: 9_9 What I'm thinking of, Yadali...is how long they'll be alive.
Lithaladhwen: IM: Speaking of munchies, all this bullshit makes me stressed.
Der DWSage: And the quality of life they'll have.
Lithaladhwen: *stands* You don't know anything.
Lithaladhwen: We survive because we've had to hold them off and we've succeeded. They stopped raiding the main settlement years ago.
Der DWSage: I know exactly as much as you'll tell me, mixed with my own viewpoints.
Der DWSage: Nothing more.
LovelyJester: *merely half heartedly listening in*
Lithaladhwen: *throws her hands up in frustration* You wouldn't understand! You do everything differently.
Lithaladhwen: I'm as different from you as you are from me.
Lithaladhwen: And yet.... the same. Fuck. I hate this.
LovelyJester: Then you should not try to change the other person.
LovelyJester: You're different. So what?
Lithaladhwen: So nothing.
LovelyJester: Exactly.
Der DWSage: <_<
Der DWSage: Know what?
LovelyJester: *pops the last bit of meat in his mouth*
Lithaladhwen: Sorune's fine because he's here.
Lithaladhwen: I'm not because I am.
Lithaladhwen: ...What?
Der DWSage: I say we all get something to eat. I know you're hungry because of the way your stomach's been growling every since he started eating.
Der DWSage: *The last directed at Cor*
Lithaladhwen: ....Yeah, it kind of has.
Lithaladhwen: I guess ...what's a good place to eat?
Der DWSage: *Ponders!*
Lithaladhwen: IM: I don't know if I want to tell him now. About any of it.
Lithaladhwen: IM: I should just go.
LovelyJester: ....*shakes his head wildly from side to side*
Der DWSage: *Since, y'know. He doesn't eat out much*
LovelyJester: The cooked meat?
LovelyJester: Terrible idea.
Lithaladhwen: Corrigan? Want some food? You can get it raw.
Der DWSage: We can ask for it raw.
LovelyJester: Ah!
LovelyJester: ......That's right.
LovelyJester: Zyvanna told me it can be raw too.
Der DWSage: *Taps chin a bit!* I don't suppose you know any good places, Zyvanna?
LovelyJester: *nods*
LovelyJester: (She left yo.)
Lithaladhwen: (Zyvanna isn't here because her player left.)
Der DWSage: (Er, whups. I meant Cor.)
LovelyJester: (The blonde went night-o.)
LovelyJester: ........No.
LovelyJester: I don't understand this ....buying idea.
Lithaladhwen: IM: I just don't want to leave on a bad note because for all I know I'll get killed by Drow or settle down back home and never come back here.
Der DWSage: Well then, time to do something I haven't done since I was young.
Lithaladhwen: Don't worry about buying it. I'll do it.
Lithaladhwen: You just eat whatever.
LovelyJester: *nods*
Der DWSage: We walk, and the first place we find that serves food, we eat at it.
LovelyJester: I will repay you.
LovelyJester: The best I can.
Lithaladhwen: Don't do that. I don't use money that much anyway.
Lithaladhwen: Don't need it.
LovelyJester: I don't have money.
Der DWSage: Heh. You and me both, Yadali.
LovelyJester: I think money is....
Der DWSage: IM:Though I spend most of mine on intersting seeds and books.
LovelyJester: .......What good is it FOR?
Lithaladhwen: *shrug* Trading for other things.
LovelyJester: you use it to get things you need, so other people can get things they need.
Der DWSage: An arbitrary system to let a person know what services will be rendered for his goods.
LovelyJester: JUST, exchange!
Der DWSage: *Oh, hey, he starts walking*
LovelyJester: *shakes his head again*
Lithaladhwen: It's a small, round, metal way of saying, "I will repay you."
Der DWSage: More or less.
Lithaladhwen: *starts walking and Alex follows*
LovelyJester: ......So is a sword in the gut.
LovelyJester: *Follows*
Der DWSage: That's rather more literal.
Lithaladhwen: *As she walks, she pulls out a little white cigarette-thing and lights it*
Der DWSage: Besides, most swords aren't round.
FFFan80 has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: *It seems to make her feel better*
Lithaladhwen: *smokes*
Lithaladhwen: (Great. Look what you've done. You drove her to drugs.)
LovelyJester: I don't understand.
Der DWSage: (Sorune:I'm a bad, bad man...)
Der DWSage: *Shakes his head* Currency is a very complicated issue, and one I don't agree with most times.
LovelyJester: It seems more complicated than it should be.
Der DWSage: Simple barter really would be a lot easier.
Der DWSage: Well, simpler at least.
Der DWSage: Perhaps not easier.
LovelyJester: ......I do have something I can repay you with though.
Lithaladhwen: ...And what's that?
LovelyJester: Well. Aside from a favor, I do have these.
LovelyJester: *pulls a small pouch from his bag*
LovelyJester: *empties a fair amount of various seeds onto his palm*
Lithaladhwen: *head tilt...takes another drag*
LovelyJester: *pulls out one in particular*
LovelyJester: *and puts the rest back*
LovelyJester: *and offers it to Yadali*
Lithaladhwen: *takes*
Lithaladhwen: (She know what it is?)
Der DWSage: *Oh, hey! It's a place that Sorune walks into!*
Lithaladhwen: *Yadi goes there, too!*
Der DWSage: *It's clearly labelled 'The Fishery'*
LovelyJester: (Maybe! It's a certain flower that fey cultivate and use to make alcoholic beverages. Weird wild effects on the brain! Most fey are immune!)
Der DWSage: *And since it has a menu outside, it seems quite likely they serve food here. And hey! Waiters!*
Der DWSage: *Feel free to BS your own. I've done enough multiplaying for tonight*
LovelyJester: *Sniffs at the air*
LovelyJester: .....Fish! *As he cannot read, he assumes from the scent!*
Lithaladhwen: Oh. Thanks! We have this on Ka'thalar. Maybe I'll keep it growing when I get back.
Lithaladhwen: Seriously. Offer is open to come back sometime.
Der DWSage: Seems it.
LovelyJester: ......I may take you up on that.
Lithaladhwen: How many of you are there?
LovelyJester: *yanks at his pony tail*
LovelyJester: The hunt?
Lithaladhwen: Yup.
LovelyJester: About 100 of us.
Lithaladhwen: o_o Wow. That's a lot of heretics.
Der DWSage: *Headshake*
LovelyJester: ......Not all in one place.
Lithaladhwen: See, the thing is.... it's complicated if you come back. I know we could work it out, but there are things.
Der DWSage: *Oh, hey, a waiter comes by to take their order! Sorune declines anything but a glass of water himself*
LovelyJester: The rest of the fey keep us pretty sectioned off.
LovelyJester: I'm not sure anyone else would want to leave.
Lithaladhwen: The social stuff with the confidential things and the Drow spies and raids and possibly humans wandering around.
LovelyJester: They see it as their job to protect the forests, and hunt anything that sets foot in it.
LovelyJester: Including idiots like whisper.
Lithaladhwen: *orders chicken parmesean for Alex and seven hard-boiled eggs for herself*
Lithaladhwen: Oh, well. We do that.
LovelyJester: *.....just asks for meat. Raw. With no green crap*
Lithaladhwen: We don't hunt everyone. That would be silly. If you know the right people you can usually get off being escorted out.
LovelyJester: My reasons are purely on the grounds I hate the rest of the fey.
Lithaladhwen: We wouldn't enslave Sorune for instance because he's a Drow, but he also knows me so he'd be cool.
Lithaladhwen: Well, I mean. I don't know.
Lithaladhwen: *Druid
Lithaladhwen: *He's a Druid
Lithaladhwen: (Damn I need caffeine.)
LovelyJester: *cocks his head to one side*
Der DWSage: (Yes, ye do.)
Lithaladhwen: It's this whole thing. With stuff.
LovelyJester: (Everyone does. I also need icecream and possibly some sort of man thing. But I'll live.)
LovelyJester: The drow.
LovelyJester: ........Pity they taste bad.
Lithaladhwen: I'm here because I was helping with General Hakaril's stuff on Ka'thalar. I met his people and then we helped to kill a necromancer and Reshtaha was there and also Kazeros.
Der DWSage: I'm sure they do.
Lithaladhwen: Kazeros is really cool, by the way.
LovelyJester: .....Reshtaha.
Lithaladhwen: You ever meet him, tell him I said hi.
LovelyJester: That's .....one of the other Gods?
Der DWSage: Yep.
Lithaladhwen: Reshtaha was less cool, but I think he was on duty so I'm not going to blame him.
Der DWSage: That'd be the god of death.
LovelyJester: Ah.
Der DWSage: He's Ayra's teacher. I don't think he's such a bad guy.
Der DWSage: *Sips water*
Lithaladhwen: I bet off-duty he's fine. Meldon was cool, but he was evil and made undead.
LovelyJester: I don't know many of the other Gods.
LovelyJester: .....I saw an undead in the forest the other day.
Der DWSage: ...Say WHAT?
LovelyJester: .........It was terrifying.
Lithaladhwen: They're everywhere here. It's kind of grody.
LovelyJester: ..............It Jingled.
Der DWSage: ...
Der DWSage: Oh. HER.
Lithaladhwen: These ones didn't jingle. They killed people.
LovelyJester: This one definately jingled.
Der DWSage: *Sits back down* Did she have clown makeup on?
LovelyJester: *shrugs* I don't know what that is.
Lithaladhwen: Hey, Sorune. I should tell you a thing.
Der DWSage: White and black stuff on her face.
Der DWSage: *Nods to Yadali* I should probably tell you something, too.
Der DWSage: You first?
Lithaladhwen: Yeah.
Lithaladhwen: See, I told Farwind that I'd help him find his people, but I don't know if I'll be able to do much about it unless he wants to go check it out really soon.
Lithaladhwen: I mean, I told him I would and I know Alex is really attached to him.
Lithaladhwen: If I leave and I don't see him before then, will you make sure he works stuff out?
Lithaladhwen: After all, I'd feel bad if he didn't find his pack and then we just left.
Der DWSage: Of course I will.
Lithaladhwen: Also, I need more Volt. You know Chandler?
Lithaladhwen: He's about this tall, red hai----actually. I'd better not describe him to you.
Der DWSage: In passing, I think.
Lithaladhwen: If you know what he looks like, he'll think you're stalking him.
Der DWSage: Chancellor to the king?
Lithaladhwen: And if you mention me because I know him, he'll think I'm stalking him.
Lithaladhwen: No, he's an inventor.
Lithaladhwen: He makes Volt Cola. He lives in Enchufa.
Der DWSage: >_> Then that must be his former job.
Lithaladhwen: I went there once.
Lithaladhwen: Everything had springs.
Der DWSage: No, wait. I'm thinking of someone else.
Der DWSage: Carry on.
Lithaladhwen: The toys had springs and there was a little fat Chandler that he said wasn't his and I think he was flirting with me.
Lithaladhwen: The little Chandler, not the real one.
Der DWSage: ...
Lithaladhwen: This one was too young and too Chandler to father my children so I told him I wasn't interested.
LovelyJester: *gnawing at his raw meat like an animal!*
Lithaladhwen: Anyway.
Der DWSage: Okay then..
Lithaladhwen: I don't think that's relevant. Is it?
Der DWSage: *Sip of water* Probably not. But it is fascinating.
Lithaladhwen: Oh. Okay.
Lithaladhwen: Anyway.
Lithaladhwen: Enchufa. Go there, but only to visit. Novel but weird and kind of unpleasant.
Lithaladhwen: Come to think of it, maybe you'd like it more.
Lithaladhwen: Lots of metal technology things.
Lithaladhwen: Anyway again.
Lithaladhwen: Farwind. See to that, okay? I don't think I'll see him before I go.
Lithaladhwen: I mentioned I'm leaving, right?
LovelyJester: IM: uuuuuugh, metal.
Der DWSage: *Nod*
Lithaladhwen: Yeah. I think I'm doing that, like... before the end of the week. Maybe. I might get distracted or I may have to negotiate travel for a hundred fey or I may need to go find Farwind's pack or I may leave tonight.
Lithaladhwen: Dunno yet.
Lithaladhwen: Haven't planned that far ahead.
Der DWSage: *Ponders*
Lithaladhwen: I figure I can just use the castle gate because I'm a knight which means I can go but can't come back.
Lithaladhwen: I just need to plan a little beforehand, but not much.
Lithaladhwen: I can really just head out whenever I want. It's kind of neat.
Lithaladhwen: I wonder if Alex can use the gate on his own because he's a knight. I bet he can, but they couldn't talk to him.
Lithaladhwen: They don't speak fox. I think.
LovelyJester: I'll talk to them, Yadali.
Lithaladhwen: Do you know?
Lithaladhwen: Oh! Yeah. Do that.
LovelyJester: But I can say not many will come.
Der DWSage: *Shrug*
Lithaladhwen: *shrugs* Whatever.
LovelyJester: .....Though I may. The idiot may get herself killed in my absence.
LovelyJester: And I can try drow.
Der DWSage: 9.9 Anyway...my turn?
Lithaladhwen: I can probably figure out a way to get them official status of freedperson to avoid lots of things. Or you guys can just... yeah, sure.
Lithaladhwen: Your turn.
Der DWSage: *Nods* I'll try one last time to explain why I value talking above everything else. I know its vexing to, well, someone like you.
Der DWSage: I've mentioned quite a few times I come from off-planet. And that I protected an entire world.
Lithaladhwen: Yup.
Lithaladhwen: IM: Someone like me? What's that supposed to mean?
Der DWSage: >_> I did that with the help of quite a few gods. Or demi-gods, I guess they were, since they used up so much of their power.
Lithaladhwen: Those must be nice to have around. Demi-gods I mean. I have a demiplane, but those are different.
Der DWSage: Depended, really.
Der DWSage: There was just a hitch in the plan.
Der DWSage: Every single action I took, every single thought I had, represented not only me...but all of those gods, their position in the world, and exactly what their followers did.
Der DWSage: That can be a lot of pressure.
Lithaladhwen: Yup.
Der DWSage: Especially when all of those gods happen to be ones who put every ounce of energy into creating the planet you happen to be standing on, and don't like seeing bits of it die.
Der DWSage: This includes things as small as a blade of grass.
Der DWSage: 9_9; Every time I failed to keep someone from dying...every time I had a break down in communication and even the smallest skirmish fell out...
Der DWSage: Well, the Gods had a very effective punishment in mind.
Der DWSage: I had to see things through the eyes of the dying, from at least an hour before their death.
Der DWSage: Each and every one.
LovelyJester: .......
Lithaladhwen: *nod*
LovelyJester: IM: I wonder what that is like.....
LovelyJester: IM: It may be interesting a few times...
Der DWSage: That tends to stick with a person.
Lithaladhwen: Interesting. Your gods have.... never mind.
Der DWSage: They were very literal minded.
Lithaladhwen: I'm not going to judge their acceptance of the laws of nature that they created. They're gods. They don't have to accept any laws if they don't want.
Lithaladhwen: Sorune? Can I ask you a question?
Der DWSage: Of course.
Lithaladhwen: If you were me, and you still had this um. Condition.
Lithaladhwen: And if you knew from past experience that the Drow have no honor and cannot be negotiated with, that they have no respect for life, even the lives of their own people.
Lithaladhwen: And if you knew that the only way to protect the people you love and owe everything to was to kill Drow.
Lithaladhwen: Would you rather kill Drow or feel the deaths of your own kin?
Lithaladhwen: Knowing you could have saved them by defending them?
Der DWSage: ...Honestly?
Der DWSage: I'd have stuck myself on a suicide mission.
Lithaladhwen: *eyes narrow* So you could die first and not face any of their deaths?
Der DWSage: I'd feel the deaths on both sides. I barely survived it when it was sparing and not a civil war.
Der DWSage: And I said I'd put myself on a suicide mission. I didn't say I wouldn't take the enemy down with me.
Lithaladhwen: Then it's a damn good thing you aren't responsible for anyone's safety but your own now.
Der DWSage: *Sighs...and nods.* You're right. It is a good thing.
Lithaladhwen: We're a young settlement, especially by our standards. Our meaning Elves, of course. Very young.
Lithaladhwen: But the whole time, we've been fighting off Drow. If we didn't we would die. Down to the last child and houseplant.
LovelyJester: IM: .....Thank whatever sort of God my responsiblities include just protecting the forest and collecting food. This shit is too complicated.
Lithaladhwen: We protect each other and we take care of each other in any way we can.
Lithaladhwen: If we don't, we die.
Lithaladhwen: We take care of the forest around us because it also protects us and cares for us.
Lithaladhwen: If we don't, we die.
Lithaladhwen: Do you get it?
Der DWSage: *Nod*
Der DWSage: I just wish I didn't have to.
Lithaladhwen: Wishing is nice. You do that. I'll do what it takes to help the people who need me.
Der DWSage: Mm.
Lithaladhwen: (The level and duration of Yadali's serious attitude is unprecedented. This has seriously never happened before.)
Der DWSage: ...You remind me of me when I was younger, actually. Full of fire and spirit, and definitely not wrong. Never. Not in a hundred years.
Lithaladhwen: *crosses her arms*
Der DWSage: (Sorune:I bring out the...uh...does this count as best or worst?)
Der DWSage: >_> And the vexing thing is that no one can find anything wrong with your arguments.
LovelyJester: *chuckles*
Der DWSage: Well, except that drow meat tastes terrible, but that depends on the person.
Lithaladhwen: Yeah.
Lithaladhwen: There has to be someone who likes it.
Lithaladhwen: Not me.
Der DWSage: *Shrug* I've saved the world a couple of times. It's lost its shine. And I wish I could help with your problems with your home...
Der DWSage: But I'm one person. A statistic at best, and a liability at worst.
Lithaladhwen: The world isn't my problem. I can't worry about saving it. But I know why I exist. Everyone knows that, and accepts it. Well, not everyone here. Or something.
Lithaladhwen: General Hakaril might, and Kazeros knows things.
Lithaladhwen: Anyway.
Lithaladhwen: The world is big. And it's not my job.
Der DWSage: The most anyone can do is protect what they love.
Lithaladhwen: *nod*
Lithaladhwen: See? You DO get it.
Der DWSage: Yep. The problem is that I complicate things too much.
Der DWSage: *Shrug* You can blame education for that, I suppose.
LovelyJester: *chuckles again*
Lithaladhwen: Maybe. I'm more educated than I seem, you know.
Lithaladhwen: I can read Elvish philosophy upside down.
Lithaladhwen: It's good for that. More interesting that way.
Der DWSage: I can tell you how to build an engine that would get you to the moon.
Der DWSage: Hypothetically, because you don't have the materials for it on Gaera.
Lithaladhwen: I can tell you how to survive being captured by a raiding party. Different education.
Lithaladhwen: Fuck.
Der DWSage: Touche. But I can tell you-hm?
Lithaladhwen: You know what? Part of me doesn't want to go, because I don't actually know when General Hakaril will be sending airships to Ka'thalar again.
Lithaladhwen: Getting there is easy and I know I have to. I just feel bad because I won't get to say g'bye to Chandler. He'll think I'm hiding in an alley waiting for him.
Der DWSage: I could pass a message on to him.
Lithaladhwen: Nah. He'll shoot you or something.
Der DWSage: ...I'll have a carrier pigeon pass on the message then.
Der DWSage: I know one that owes me some favors for healing it.
Lithaladhwen: He'll shoot that, too.
Der DWSage: Slip it under his door?
Lithaladhwen: Chandler will find a way to panic and shoot something.
Lithaladhwen: I'll just let him find out from General Hakaril.
Der DWSage: Steal his guns and then pass on the message?
Lithaladhwen: Heh.
Lithaladhwen: I dunno. Ishmas was fun. I'll remember that.
Lithaladhwen: It's fun here, but I feel wrong, y'know?
Lithaladhwen: It's weird. I don't know how to describe it.
Der DWSage: *Nods*
Der DWSage: ...Part of it might be that it's not a solely Ishtaran holiday.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, not that.
Der DWSage: There's actually a hodgepodge from most other religions too. Including death gods.
Lithaladhwen: Ishmas was fun. I thought I'd give gifts just for giggles. I made General Hakaril a bear coat.
Lithaladhwen: It's just that I shouldn't be here. I don't know if coming here was a mistake.
LovelyJester: (Sorry sleepiness is distracting me.)
Lithaladhwen: Did you ever feel that way about your place?
Der DWSage: Hm.
Lithaladhwen: (That's fine.)
Der DWSage: *Nods* Especially last year.
Lithaladhwen: What happened then?
Der DWSage: I came back after a...particularly rough war on my world.
Der DWSage: It broke out mostly because there wasn't someone around to defuse situations between several kingdoms.
Lithaladhwen: *nod*
LovelyJester: *just quietly listening*
Der DWSage: And, well, thoughts keep running through my mind.
Der DWSage: What if it happens again? What if more people die? What if, what if, what if...
Lithaladhwen: Well, they're your pack. Of course you worry.
Der DWSage: Awfully large pack.
Der DWSage: But yes.
Der DWSage: I decided finally that, if I got really motivated, I'd find a way back there. For the moment, I've done everything I can for them, and someone else has to take over. A few more straws would've broken my back.
Der DWSage: Everyone needs a chance to...break. To simply calm down without the weight of the world on them.
Lithaladhwen: *shrug* Sounds fair.
Lithaladhwen: I don't know what my problem is lately. Alex says I miss my pack, that I feel bad because I'm going to be their alpha and I left.
Der DWSage: Hm.
Lithaladhwen: He has simple ways of looking at those things, but I think he's right. Not used to being... alone. Like this.
Der DWSage: Funny thing, the mortal mind.
Der DWSage: *Sips water* We think we know what we want, and why we want it...
Der DWSage: But in the background, our bodies and minds know what's best for us all along. We just have to listen to them.
Lithaladhwen: *remembers her food and pops a hardboiled egg in her mouth*
Lithaladhwen: I thought I wanted to see what was here, see if anything here was worth doing or seeing. I don't think so. I mean, stuff is cool. But cool isn't the same as worthwhile. This is all other people's stuff.
Lithaladhwen: I need my stuff.
Der DWSage: *Nods*
Der DWSage: At least you got the chance to realize it.
Der DWSage: That's stuff worth knowing in of itself.
Lithaladhwen: Oh. Well, sure.
Lithaladhwen: Stuff is cool. The world is full of stuff.
Der DWSage: *Ponders a bit longer*
Lithaladhwen: I am a fan of stuff.
Lithaladhwen: *eats another egg, then another*
Lithaladhwen: I have a question.
Der DWSage: *Drinks his water to the drop!* You know I'll answer.
Lithaladhwen: If people on your world died of old age, could you feel it?
Der DWSage: It depended.
Der DWSage: If they were suffering, directly or indirectly, because of something I did? Then yes.
Der DWSage: If they were dying peacefully...well, if I felt them, I didn't realize it.
Lithaladhwen: What about mercy killings?
Der DWSage: Depended on how merciful the Gods were feeling. Usually, though.
Der DWSage: ...I wouldn't return to that for all the power in the world. Or the money.
Lithaladhwen: Your gods sucked, man. Seriously.
Der DWSage: No, they'd just had troubles with bad apples.
Der DWSage: And let's face it. If you feel every death that you cause, then you're not going to cause as many.
Lithaladhwen: That's why you... don't put one person in charge of everything? We have councils and stuff.
Lithaladhwen: I mean, just the Druids. But the point is that more than one person does things.
Der DWSage: Oh, I wasn't in charge of everything.
Der DWSage: It was more like...I was more the religious leader who got the last say in everything.
Lithaladhwen: Ah.
Lithaladhwen: That's different from me. I was sent by the gods apparently. I'll have lots of babies that will do lots of good things for my people.
Lithaladhwen: I'll do some good things, and then I'll die.
Lithaladhwen: Then other people get to do things.
Lithaladhwen: Etcetera.
Der DWSage: Very...compact.
Der DWSage: Be a baby maker and kinda sorta do stuff before we claim you again.
Lithaladhwen: I helped save the world once. But there's something to the legacy bit.
Lithaladhwen: Everything in nature dies.
Lithaladhwen: Just because I'm some sort of special doesn't mean I can break the rules.
Lithaladhwen: I'll die, my children will die, and so will theirs. Nothing can stop that.
Der DWSage: *Nod*
Lithaladhwen: They can do things for Tuatha before they go, though. So can I.
Lithaladhwen: That's my job.
Lithaladhwen: Gaera is for the gods to worry about. Let them clean up their mess of a world on their own time.
Lithaladhwen: I've got my own stuff to do.
Der DWSage: *Chuckles*
Der DWSage: Between you and me, the gods of Gaera are amatuers when it comes to getting their hands dirty.
Der DWSage: They're fine in most other respects, but direct manipulation?
Der DWSage: They either kill off the guy threatening things outright, or they do nothing at all.
Lithaladhwen: Eh. I wasn't exposed to them much before I like... met one. Crazy foreigners showing up.
Lithaladhwen: You know what? I was really pissed at you earlier.
Lithaladhwen: I feel better now.
Lithaladhwen: Smoking may have helped.
Der DWSage: *Nods* I figured you were cranky.
Der DWSage: Part of why I offered food.
Lithaladhwen: You pissed me off.
Der DWSage: *Shrug* I can have that effect on people.
Lithaladhwen: That confirms my theory that you should be here, and my kind of person should be in my kind of place.
Lithaladhwen: The longer I'm here the worse things get. Time to migrate before things get way too bad and I leave on bad terms with everyone.
Lithaladhwen: *stands*
Lithaladhwen: Remember that my invitation is open, okay?
Der DWSage: ...Well, while I don't agree entirely with that...I can see your point.
Der DWSage: *Nods* Of course. The same goes for you, y'know.
Lithaladhwen: *shrug* 'kay.
Lithaladhwen: If I leave before I see you again, good bye.
Lithaladhwen: I'm sure I'll be back or you'll commute to the other continent.
Der DWSage: Farewell, and may you find the full grace of nature.
Lithaladhwen: And may all your foreign gods be with you.
Lithaladhwen: *smiles*
Lithaladhwen: See you around.
Lithaladhwen: *turns and runs out, Alex close behind*
Der DWSage: (Aaaand sleep. That was good.)
Lithaladhwen: </Yadali Volpecula>
Lithaladhwen: (It was! She was serious! No one's ever bothered to talk to her before.)
Der DWSage: (Sorune:*Buffs fingernails on his shirt*)
Lithaladhwen: (It's like Quinn in that sense. People assume Yadali has nothing coherent to say, so no one's tried to have a serious conversation with her before.)
Der DWSage: (And Whisper. Sorta.)
Der DWSage: (Speaking of which, Sorune is going to start putting up anti-hunt traps if they get too cheeky.)
Lithaladhwen: (Eh, different. Yadali is saner than Whisper.)
Lithaladhwen: (She's just a little whimsical, that's all.)
Der DWSage: (Depends on your definition of sane. But yes.)
Der DWSage: (Anyway, it is 1:30. I need sleep. G'night.)
Lithaladhwen: (night!)
Lithaladhwen: </RP>
Der DWSage has left the room.
LovelyJester has left the room.
