FFFan80: (Quiet o.o; )
Lithaladhwen: (cricketcricketcricket)
Lithaladhwen

CGNakibe

FFFan80: (*shrug* I can give it a shot. Just no idea what to do ^_^; )

Besyanteo

FFFan80

CGNakibe: (Yeah Dave! >: )
Besyanteo: (May I suggest hyjinx with some of your random NPCs? =D)

dragongurl4390 has left the room.
CGNakibe: (BEES)
Lithaladhwen: (Who in here knows how to use different fonts in Adium?)
FFFan80
: (A different question)
FFFan80: (...what's Adium? >_>; )
Lithaladhwen: (IM client for MAC.)
FFFan80
: (Ah )
FFFan80: (No idea)
dragongurl4390 has entered the room.
dragongurl4390: ((howdy))
Lithaladhwen: (Ahoy there!)
T3chn0Namagomi
: (I'm now back)
Lithaladhwen: (Hey Nama.)
dragongurl4390
: ((^.^;; ))
T3chn0Namagomi: (With SANDWICH)
CGNakibe: (Yay!)
dragongurl4390: ((Yay))
Lithaladhwen: (Hurrah for the sandwich. I can intro us up once I know who's playing. So far it's me, Caro/Lenore, and Dave.)
Lithaladhwen
: (And hey, I don't have to change my font because I'm pulling out my avatar. Whoohoo.)
T3chn0Namagomi
: (I'm probably going to play.)
Lithaladhwen: *In the town of Vermilis, a short distance southwest of Doma, their annual fall festival is well under-way.*
Lithaladhwen
: *There are stalls for buying anything you can imagine, inns with discounts on rooms for several days, and dances in the center of town.*
Lithaladhwen
: *Food, booze, and music as well as arts and crafts are everywhere, and the dancers for the night's performance are filtering toward the town square in colorful dresses and bells and ribbons and things.*
PapatymisonN
: (*tempted...*)
Lithaladhwen: *And guess what? It looks like the crowd of dancers is being led by a serious-looking brown-haired girl of 21.*
Lithaladhwen
: <Myrnal>
Lithaladhwen: *mutters to herself* They better have cleared the floor by now....
T3chn0Namagomi
: (Hmm...Kamos or Kaltz...)
FFFan80: ...oh my...that was quite good... o_o
Lithaladhwen
: *starts herding dancers into the floor area and encouraging the crowd to move back*
FFFan80
: *the speaker is a mage... or at least, someone in the usual mage duds, a robe of green, decorated with purple runic symbols*
T3chn0Namagomi
: (OH! Duh!)
FFFan80: *the person's face is difficult to make out, hidden under the shadow of a large, yellow steeple hat*
PapatymisonN
: *somewhere, far away, a skinny young mage sleeps, napping till he's ready to go party...*
PapatymisonN: (Just setting myself up for later.)
Lithaladhwen: ('kay.)
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Meanwhile, at one of the stands, there's a man sitting. It seems he's selling something--though all the sign says is "Prophecies." What kind of shop name is that?*
Lithaladhwen: *Wow. Those who know the girl leading the dancers will note that she's dressed in some mighty bright flashy threads for a girl of her occupation. And oh look! The dancers are getting into formation!*
FFFan80
: ...this is... not at all what I expected coming here... >_o;
FFFan80
: *watch watch*
FFFan80
: ...Prophecies.
Lithaladhwen
: (*glomps Stephan and Midoku for being eternally adorable*)
T3chn0Namagomi
: *He seems to be wearing some rather fancy-looking robes--he has slightly longer-than-average blonde hair, and green eyes behind some rather kickass-looking glasses...*
FFFan80: >\/>? *the shopkeep may notice a rather angry looking gentleman, staring with green eyes and thick eyebrows which seem to have a permanent scowl to them*
dragongurl4390
: Her tail twitched as her eyes fell upon the stand that said "Prophecies". She muttered something about total bullshit.
dragongurl4390: Her curiosity (morbid by trade) got the best off her, and she walked to the stand.
Lithaladhwen: (Hey, Caro? This isn't para-style, because AIM's text limit is too short.)
Lithaladhwen
: (Just go ahead and type whatever your character says. It'll be a little easier and quicker. Actions are in asterisks.)
Lithaladhwen
: (*salute*)
T3chn0Namagomi
: (Yeah. Just noting. Asterisks are typically used here for acti--yeah. What Kai said.)
dragongurl4390: ((Okay >< So used to not doing it that way.))
T3chn0Namagomi: (I just take forever with descriptions)
Lithaladhwen: (Kai said it because Nama isn't nice. *razzes Nama*)
FFFan80
: I know I'll regret asking this... but what kind of prophecy are you talking about it?
Lithaladhwen
: (It's true. Nama is king of descriptive chat.)
dragongurl4390
: ((XD))
FFFan80: (I cheat and use emotes all the time =[ )
T3chn0Namagomi
: It depends. What would you want to know? *has a relatively relaxed look about him in general*
Lithaladhwen: (Caro: I figured that you were used to a different style, because we've RPed before briefly. Thought I'd give you a heads up. We RP like we chat.)
dragongurl4390
: ((*Is a writer, so uses long drawn out descs*))
T3chn0Namagomi: (Heh. 'sokay.)
FFFan80: I mean, is this the part where you tell me...
Lithaladhwen
: (And we'll love you for it when we finally drag you into a board RP! *hintrecruithint*)
dragongurl4390
: *Raises a brow* "Tells you what?"
FFFan80: 9\/9 *makes quoting motions with his fingers* "Oh woe, for thou shall have a dark time soon"
FFFan80
: *at the prophecy guy*
dragongurl4390
: ((GAH! *Was doing it again!*))
Lithaladhwen: *Someone strikes up the band and some kind of dancing reel kicks the girls into action. The dancing is immediately a whirlwind of women in dresses leaping and twirling.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: Hah! Unless you count the night as woeful, I really doubt that's what I would say.
Lithaladhwen: (That's cool. I know it's hard to consciously switch over.)
FFFan80
: Well?
dragongurl4390
: *Laughs* "That's a typical prophecy. What makes yours different?"
FFFan80: >\/>? *looks at the newcomer*
T3chn0Namagomi
: ...Please. I'm a professional diviner--but I tend to take more specific questions than just "what is my future."
dragongurl4390: "Fine. Okay, let me think...What will I find the next time I go into Death?"
FFFan80: .....
FFFan80
: *raises an eyebrow*
dragongurl4390
: *She glances at him* "Never you mind."
Lithaladhwen: *dancers dance, music is... musicky?*
dragongurl4390
: "Now answer the quesion*
dragongurl4390: *" ))
T3chn0Namagomi: Now, now. You need to pay first. I never said I was offering my magic for free.
FFFan80: *thinks to himself* "...what the bloody hell is she talking about..."
T3chn0Namagomi
: *notes the small panel that says "25 gil per answer"*
dragongurl4390: *Clunks some coins on the counter*
T3chn0Namagomi: *takes them* So, let's see...*closes his eyes, and traces a few patterns in the air in front of him*
FFFan80: *watches*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *There's definitely some sort of magical activity going on here*
dragongurl4390: *Eyes narrow*
FFFan80: o_ó *...tries to sense what he can of this... unusual magic*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *...Hoo boy. It's definitely magic, and he's DEFINITELY got an aura on him. Seems to be on the ice/water end, at that*
T3chn0Namagomi: You'll find an expanse full of others who have gone--never empty, but never full. However, your stay, like the others, would be interrupted by the hand of another.
dragongurl4390: *Growls. It sounds kind of like tumbling rocks* "No kidding. That's what happens every time I go into Death!"
FFFan80: ......
FFFan80
: *thinks to himself again*
dragongurl4390
: *She glares at him* Never you mind!
FFFan80: "What the f#$#"
FFFan80
: >\/>
FFFan80
: Lady,
FFFan80
: You're standing here
FFFan80
: In bloody f#$king PUBLIC
FFFan80
: Talking about dying.
Lithaladhwen
: (Oh, Stephan. Hug me.)
FFFan80
: o_ó And you're SHOCKED, that a total stranger is wondering what the hell is going on?
dragongurl4390
: "Look!" She whispers harshly. "Let's just say it's my ****ing occupation to go into Death and come back!"
FFFan80: ....
FFFan80
: *rubs at his temples*
PapatymisonN
: (Reshtaha, the Gaeran god of Death: ... *checks the employee manifest* o.O)
T3chn0Namagomi: Okay, uh, could you two take your quarreling somewhere else? You might scare off others who might want answers. ^^;
dragongurl4390: ((XDDDD))
FFFan80: If you don't want to talk about it...
Lithaladhwen
: (Resh needs more subordinates.)
FFFan80
: WHY ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT IT TO MY FACE?!
Lithaladhwen
: (Like... the not-crazy kind.)
FFFan80
: For f#$k's sake... e_e
Lithaladhwen
: (Seriously. I demand hugs from Stephan.)
dragongurl4390
: "You really want to know!?"
FFFan80: .....
FFFan80
: I DON'T GIVE A BLOODY F#$K ABOUT IT
T3chn0Namagomi
: Uh, you two? o.o; Please?
Lithaladhwen: *Somewhere in here the music has stopped and applause for the dancers has begun.*
dragongurl4390
: "Fine! Then get the HELL out of my FACE!"
FFFan80: ....e\/e
PapatymisonN
: (The posters in the Underworld say "You don't have to be crazy to work here, but it helps!... what? Oh. Sorry. You DO have to be crazy to work here.")
T3chn0Namagomi: *sighs*
FFFan80: I'll stand whereever I Godsdamn well please.
FFFan80
: If you want to be all secretive and sh#$ like that, haul your ass off somewhere private.
dragongurl4390
: (( http://p068.ezboard.com/frpgww60462frm17.showMessage?t opicID=326.topic <---there's a picture of my character here))
Lithaladhwen: *A young woman in brightly-colored clothing and stage makeup taps Midoku on the shoulder. It's Myrnal! Somehow she ninja'd up behind him in the confusion.*
Lithaladhwen
: Midoku? That you?
FFFan80
: *MEEP*
FFFan80
: >_O;
FFFan80
: .....
FFFan80
: ....Oh it is... you... o_@;
T3chn0Namagomi
: Listen. I'm trying to get some money so I can open a shop...I'd really like it if you'd take your fight elsewhere? Please?
dragongurl4390: *Growls again* "You don't want to get slapped by me bub. But you're bringing me close. Or i might do something worse to you."
Lithaladhwen: Hey. *little wave* Stephan getting himself in trouble?
FFFan80
: ....e\/e
dragongurl4390
: *She looks at the shopkeep*
FFFan80: Is that a threat?
dragongurl4390
: "Maybe."
FFFan80: *meanwhile!*
dragongurl4390
: *Her strange eyes narrow*
FFFan80: o_o? Well... it is a festival, I would hope that he is simply relaxing.
Lithaladhwen
: He looks okay to me. *nods*
FFFan80
: I'd like to see you try... but I wouldn't suggest it. e_e
FFFan80
: Oh?
Lithaladhwen
: Yeah. He's just... uh... bonding. With that woman. They'll either end up killing each other or getting drunk. We'll know within the hour.
T3chn0Namagomi
: ...
FFFan80: Now how about you stop being a whiny b#$ch and just take your secret prophecy of doom or puppies elsewhere for privacy you seem to need so much.
FFFan80
: ....
FFFan80
: .........
FFFan80
: What
FFFan80
: *looks over*
Lithaladhwen
: Stephan! What the hell is going on?
FFFan80
: .....?
Lithaladhwen
: *ZOMG Myrnal looks like a girl! And no visible weapons!*
dragongurl4390
: *She growls.* "For your sake, fortune teller, I walk away from here. But you..." She grabs his hand and sinks her claws into his wrist slightly, then walks off*
FFFan80: *looks over*
FFFan80
: >_@
FFFan80
: .....
FFFan80
: .......
FFFan80
: e\/@++++
dragongurl4390
: ((GAH! Did both that time ><))
FFFan80: *oh, that's not a good look*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *sigh of relief* IM: I really didn't want to have to force anyone off
Lithaladhwen: *looks from the shopkeeper to the stranger to Stephan*
Lithaladhwen
: What the shit?
FFFan80
: ....
FFFan80
: *poke* Stephan? o_o;
Lithaladhwen
: I require clarity. Someone explain.
FFFan80
: e\/e If she comes near me again I'll gut her like a bloody @#$#@$ing FISH.
FFFan80
: ......
FFFan80
: Right.
FFFan80
: *eeeedges over to the shopkeeper* Sir?
T3chn0Namagomi
: ...I'd advise against doing that, sir.
FFFan80: ...actually... no... that would be far too quick... yes...
T3chn0Namagomi
: Yes? Oh, uh, welcome. ^^ *to Mid*
Lithaladhwen: ...
FFFan80
: ...What... happened here?
FFFan80
: o_o;
T3chn0Namagomi
: Well, that girl asked me to tell her what she'd see upon dying, and then this guy decided to fight with her about talking about dying in public or something of the like
FFFan80: Ah, I see. Well that is...
Lithaladhwen
: ...Stephan? Intent to kill aside? What the fuck?
FFFan80
: ...wait, what?
T3chn0Namagomi
: ^^ I'm a professional diviner, so...
FFFan80: ....
dragongurl4390
: ((Okay, another desc...sorry, but none of you know what she looks like...))
FFFan80: I think I need a bandage. 6\/6
dragongurl4390
: *this woman is not quite as bizarre as the last, though her skin and hair are entirely white, and her eyes are an unnaturaly icy shade of blue>
FFFan80: *woo for a bloody wrist*
Lithaladhwen
: (Another character, Lenore? Groovy.)
dragongurl4390
: She was an elf, also, and wore a sapphire blue cloak. She was an unearthly beauty, despite her unusual coloring*
Lithaladhwen: ...Shit, Stephan, are you okay?
FFFan80
: I'll live.
FFFan80
: Which is more than I can promise for her... e_e
Lithaladhwen
: Uh huh. Well, you certainly seem okay. You can't be too badly hurt if you're handing out threats.
Lithaladhwen
: *flicks a glance to the elf-woman*
Lithaladhwen
: *raises an eyebrow and returns her attention to her irritable friend*
dragongurl4390
: "Prophecies?"
dragongurl4390: *She walks up to the stand*
dragongurl4390: "What kind of prophecies?"
Lithaladhwen: *gives a chivalrous step backward for the lady to hide a brief up-and-down glance*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: She's not bad.
dragongurl4390
: ((XD))
T3chn0Namagomi: Welcome! For a price of 25 gil, and a question that you want an answer for, I'll give you an answer with the aid of my magic. ^.^
dragongurl4390: ((Lenore is a Necromancer, by the way. That's what she's talking about.))
FFFan80: I am totally f#@king justified, thank you -\/-
dragongurl4390
: *Blinks* "Aren't these kinds of things usually phony?"
FFFan80: o.o? *as sometimes happens, Midoku's curiousity is override his 'Oh shit, Stephan is being stupid' sense*
Lithaladhwen
: *laugh*
FFFan80
: She does make a point, sir.
T3chn0Namagomi
: I'm a professional diviner, miss. I'm a bit new here, so... ^^
FFFan80: >.> *nods politely to the new woman*
Lithaladhwen
: Stephan, I don't doubt it. I think that we have similar opinions about who deserves violence and who doesn't. I'm just... glad to see you're fitting in well here.
Lithaladhwen
: Didn't think I'd see people I knew today.
T3chn0Namagomi
: I can assure you, my magic is anything but fake.
dragongurl4390: *Raises a brow* "What sort?"
FFFan80: ...eh, well, Mid's been bugging me for a trip out of Doma that doesn't involve stabbing something. -\/-
Lithaladhwen
: Where are you staying?
Lithaladhwen
: You could stay for free with my folks.
FFFan80
: And I remember you mentioning this thing.
FFFan80
: o_ó
dragongurl4390
: *Glances at bleeding person, then back to the diviner.*
Lithaladhwen: I'm not, like... inviting you to a private residence. We have an inn.
T3chn0Namagomi
: ...Divination. You'd think that would be obvious. ^^;
FFFan80: Oh, right.
dragongurl4390
: "Not what I meant..."
Lithaladhwen: *pulls a handkerchief from her blouse* For fuck's sake, Stephan. *shoves it at him*
Lithaladhwen
: Do something about your hand. Dammara.
FFFan80
: 6_6
dragongurl4390
: "Anyway. Tell me...." *She thinks*
FFFan80: Oh, right.
FFFan80
: >\/9; *winces and ties it on*
T3chn0Namagomi
: o.o; You need to pay first, you know.
Lithaladhwen: *sighs* Anyway. It's called The Shining Blade. My grandparents own it. Just.... uh... don't mention certain aspects of my personal life, okay?
dragongurl4390
: "Right." *Puts down a pure silver coin engraved with some kind of rune.*
FFFan80: .....>_>
dragongurl4390
: "This should be more than enough*
dragongurl4390: *"
FFFan80: That depends, which aspect are you talking about.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *takes it* Right then.
Lithaladhwen: The one where I sleep with women. *puts a finger to her lips* I figure you can keep that quiet.
FFFan80
: .....
T3chn0Namagomi
: So, what do you want to know?
Lithaladhwen: *laughs at him*
FFFan80
: Oh yes, because that's far worse than, oh, I dunno, stabbing people.
FFFan80
: <\/< No offense.
FFFan80
: o.o? *keeps an astral eye on the diviner*
Lithaladhwen
: The difference is that I picked up the weapon-collecting and merc work from my grandfather. I learned one from my family, and the other one would seriously freak them out.
Lithaladhwen
: So just, uh... yeah.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Mid can already see the strong aura with ice/water patterns*
FFFan80: *to himself* "curious... he appears to have affinity to the elemental arts... if he is truly a diviner, I wonder where he draws power from..."
dragongurl4390
: "Ice magic!" she exclaims.
FFFan80: Don't worry about it.
Lithaladhwen
: *swallows and nods* Thanks.
FFFan80
: Thought to be blunt?
FFFan80
: If they can't handle that, I'd tell them to screw.
dragongurl4390
: She laughs, a sound like chimes on the wind. "That's what I wanted to know. What elements you used for your divining! Water and ice. Fascinating."
FFFan80: *shrug* But I'm guessing that's the whole 'family' thing.
T3chn0Namagomi
: I actually don't use that for my divining. o.o;
Lithaladhwen: Listen. Uh... yeah. They've...
Lithaladhwen
: *seems somewhat at a loss*
dragongurl4390
: *She blinked* "That's what aura you have when you do it."
Lithaladhwen: It's complicated.
FFFan80
: o.ó
T3chn0Namagomi
: But that's the aura I always have.
FFFan80: *shrug* It usually is. Whatever, that's fine.
Lithaladhwen
: *nodnod*
FFFan80
: ...*suddenly smirks*
Lithaladhwen
: What?
dragongurl4390
: "Really?" *She sounded fascinated.(
dragongurl4390: **
dragongurl4390: )
FFFan80: Heh... I was thinking about when Dan found out about... us.
FFFan80
: *glances at Mid*
Lithaladhwen
: *nod* What'd... uh... what'd he do?
Lithaladhwen
: (They're going to have The Talk, aren't they?)
FFFan80
: o.o? *in his mind* "...if that is not the source... what could it be?
CGNakibe
: (Looks like!)
FFFan80: 9.< "Some kind of magical artifact? Or... perhaps something divine in nature... but who in that case...?"
FFFan80
: I think he sat there for a good... 20 minutes.
FFFan80
: 9_< ...maybe 30, I can't remember.
Lithaladhwen
: ...Shit.
CGNakibe
: (Dan: *twitch twitch* *twitch twitch*)
T3chn0Namagomi: But...I mean, it's not like you can't use any element if your astral self lacks one, and just because I have an aura doesn't mean that everything I use is of that type...
CGNakibe: (Stephan: IM: Well, at least he's breathin.)
Lithaladhwen: *notes the discussion of magical theory and places a mental "Somebody Else's Problem" field around it*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Don't care. Magic crap.
FFFan80
: I still don't know why he reacted like that, really.
dragongurl4390
: Light rose pink lips twitch in a slight smile.* "I know. I'm a mage. If you want you can examine that coin. If you carry it with you, you'll be protected from various things>
FFFan80: But, whatever.
KnightsofSquare
has entered the room.
dragongurl4390: My personal handiwork. The emblem on there is my make as well." She placed her hand on the counter. "Feel my skin, and maybe you'll know why I was curious."
Lithaladhwen: I don't know. It's... it's different with us.
Lithaladhwen
: I mean, you and Daniel like... grew up together, right?
FFFan80
: Yeah.
FFFan80
: Hmm... maybe that's part of it.
Lithaladhwen
: Yeah. See, I'm adopted. I've only lived there since I was ten. I don't feel like shaking up their family any more than I need to.
FFFan80
: o_ó
T3chn0Namagomi
: I mean...it's not like just because I--*suddenly, people could notice the back of his fancy robes straining against...something...that seems to be suddenly coming up from his back* ...O_o; Err, excuse me!
FFFan80: I really don't see what the big deal is.
dragongurl4390
: *She blinked*
T3chn0Namagomi: *puts up a sign saying "AWAY" before he goes there; away, I mean*
FFFan80: o_o
FFFan80
: ...What in the world?
dragongurl4390
: She shakes her head and walks off.
Lithaladhwen: ;>_> Um. It's... like... it's a long story.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The shapes looked vaguely winglike, if anyone bothered to look*
FFFan80: ....
Lithaladhwen
: *glances over*
FFFan80
: You realize, if you go any further with that
FFFan80
: I have to insist on getting plastered.
Lithaladhwen
: Go any further with what?
FFFan80
: >_>; ...what an odd gentleman.
FFFan80
: Oh, don't give me that.
Lithaladhwen
: I'm looking at divination boy.
Lithaladhwen
: *zomg subject change* What's up with him, anyway?
Lithaladhwen
: If he has wings, he should just go ahead and have them.
FFFan80
: I...do not know.
dragongurl4390
: ((Nama, I'm trying to IM you but it won't let me))
FFFan80: He had an affinity for some elements, but beyond that I did not sense anything out of the ordinary.
Lithaladhwen
: *to Mid* I have no idea what that means.
FFFan80
: ....
FFFan80
: 6_< ...how would Stephan put this...
FFFan80
: He is a bloke who magics things? >_>;
T3chn0Namagomi
: *comes back, with wings gone* Ahh, sorry about that. ^^; I kinda had important issues to deal with. ^^; I'm not exactly good with all the spells I'd like to be. ^^;
Lithaladhwen: *laughs* I know enough about magic. I'm just not as good with the theoretical stuff. Questions of why some people can do what go right over my head.
Lithaladhwen
: *to the divination guy* You okay?
FFFan80
: Ah, I do apologise ^.^;
Lithaladhwen
: You got all shifty-eyed and ran away.
T3chn0Namagomi
: Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. ^^;

: >\/>?
dragongurl4390
: *Looks around the festival with icy eyes* "How queer..."
Lithaladhwen: *side-glance to the elf* What?
FFFan80
: Sir, I am curious about your trade. Could I ask you to perform it for me? o.o
dragongurl4390
: She looks over, not realizing she has spoken aloud, or was audible to anyone over the noise, nor from the distance she was standing
Lithaladhwen: *nods to the elf* What's up?
dragongurl4390
: *MEANWHILE*
T3chn0Namagomi: Well, err, I sorta need a question first before I can work out the answer. ^^;
dragongurl4390: The Dragon woman walked around aimlessly.
FFFan80: ...hmm...
Lithaladhwen
: (Caro: Para-style again. =P )
T3chn0Namagomi
: And, if you would please, 25 gil?
FFFan80: What will we be doing two days from now? >\/>
FFFan80
: o_o; Huh?
FFFan80
: *Gil = plopped*
dragongurl4390
: *Sigh* "What a stupid place. I should leave. I wonder what the Hawkling is doing. Surely something more interesting than this."
dragongurl4390: ((I know. I was just making a statement))
Lithaladhwen: (Yeah. But anything not in *these* is assumed to be spoken by the character in question.)
dragongurl4390
: ((Oh, sorry. Well, I'm using quotes for text, so....))
dragongurl4390: ((nvm))
T3chn0Namagomi: *closes his eyes, and once again focuses, drawing some symbols in the air in front of him*
T3chn0Namagomi: *From an arcane perspective, there's definitely something different with the magic used; it's not ice-elemental like his aura, but a completely different deal*
Lithaladhwen: *waits for the mage's answer*
FFFan80
: o_o *in his mind* "...this is quite fascinating to watch..." *aura reads away*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *opens his eyes*Two days from now, you'll*motioning to Stephen* be in Doma City, griping about...at least ten different people and things, getting into a couple of fights with a few of those people...
FFFan80: ....
Lithaladhwen
: *laughs!*
FFFan80
: o_o
FFFan80
: ...*smirks*
dragongurl4390
: The elf laughs
FFFan80: e_e;
dragongurl4390
: **
dragongurl4390: ((>_____<))
Lithaladhwen: (S'okay. You'll get the hang of it.)
dragongurl4390
: ((Gah I'm sorry! I'm so not used to it!!))
Lithaladhwen: (It's not a big deal. This is a hakuna matata situation.)
T3chn0Namagomi
: You *motioning to Mid* Will at times be following him around, and trying to keep him out of these fights, plus...uh, woah...I didn't know guys did that with each other. o.o;
FFFan80: .....
dragongurl4390
: ((Because I'll of the rps I'm in are like, "DON'T USE ASTERISKS OR YOU'LL GET KICKED OUT))
FFFan80: .....*BLUSH* *x_X*
Lithaladhwen
: (I repeat: Hakuna matata.)
Lithaladhwen
: ....
dragongurl4390
: ((>>; ))
Lithaladhwen: Is there a problem, mister?
dragongurl4390
: *Puts a hand to her lips with a faint smile*
FFFan80: ...Well at least whatever happens today, I know I'll be happy later. >_>
FFFan80
: *SMACK* X\/x
T3chn0Namagomi
: No. Just slightly surprised by what I did see. Guess the culture here's a bit different than where I'm from.
FFFan80: OW
Lithaladhwen
: *bites her knuckle and represses laughter*
Lithaladhwen
: Okay. Do me next.
Lithaladhwen
: That was way too amusing.
Lithaladhwen
: Um... let's see.
T3chn0Namagomi
: 25 gil, please?
FFFan80: Oh, stop being so upset.
Lithaladhwen
: *lays down money*
FFFan80
: Or, at least try to in the next couple days >_>
FFFan80
: e_e
FFFan80
: Stop tempting me to challenge fate, would you?
FFFan80
: .....
FFFan80
: *shuts up* <\/<;
T3chn0Namagomi
: *takes the money, puts it in his safebox deal*
Lithaladhwen: What can you tell me about my next job?
T3chn0Namagomi
: *closes his eyes, and once again does the neat magicy thing*
Lithaladhwen: *crosses her arms and waits*
Lithaladhwen
: *foot-tap of justice*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *eyes open* There's a lot of money up for grabs, but...it seems like you're not going to be able to hide much other than yourself for much longer.
Lithaladhwen: What the hell does that mean?
FFFan80
: o_ó *eyebrow raise*
FFFan80
: ...that is... rather vague.
KnightsofSquare
: (Wait, wait...I'm seeing another vision.....Snape kills Dumbledore)
Lithaladhwen: (Ohnoes!)
dragongurl4390
: ((XDDDDDD))
FFFan80: (YOU BASTARD ;\/; )
dragongurl4390
: ((That's how I feel))
CGNakibe: (DAMN YOU MIKE~! *SHAKES FIST*)
T3chn0Namagomi: High reward, so to say...but I see that some of the things you're trying to hide are going to get revealed anyway.
Lithaladhwen: ô_O
Lithaladhwen
: This shit always happens to me. I don't ever want to hear my future again
T3chn0Namagomi
: ^^; Heh...sorry. Didn't mean to disappoint.
dragongurl4390: *Raises a brow.* "now I'm curious. I want the fortune I payed for. What will I be t=doing in two days."
Lithaladhwen: You didn't. I just don't want to know any more.
Lithaladhwen
: I got my money's worth. Do the elf next.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Someone should. She's definitely... no! Myrnal! Not here! Not in your hometown!
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Fuck. Willpower.
Lithaladhwen
: *shakes off all unseemly thoughts*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Magicky thing*
dragongurl4390: ((XDDDD))
KnightsofSquare: (Be sure to mark the point of temporary willpower off of your character sheet)
Lithaladhwen: (Heh.)
dragongurl4390
: ((XP))
CGNakibe: (Okay, here comes another Temperance roll...)
Lithaladhwen: (Yeah, she needs to burn willpower for these things. She's lonelier than she looks.)
CGNakibe
: (Stephan: Nature: Sappy. Demeanor: STABBY.)
CGNakibe: (... that's about right, right?)
Lithaladhwen: (Sounds good to me.)
dragongurl4390
: ((*Laughs*))
Lithaladhwen: (Could be said for more than one person in this RP, really.)
T3chn0Namagomi
: I see you heading toward the capital city, to stop by on the way elsewhere. Shop for a bit, talking to a couple of the locals there...
FFFan80: (Stephan: *flips the bird* e.e+ )
dragongurl4390
: *She raises a brow* "Really now."
Lithaladhwen: (Myrnal: *lets Stephan babysit her big fuzzy three-legged dog*)
dragongurl4390
: ((XP))
CGNakibe: (*Sees Fal letting Myrnal babysit her three-headed dog. Chaos ensues*)
Lithaladhwen: (His name is Heinrich! She uses him to hunt moose!)
T3chn0Namagomi
: (...yeah. XP)
FFFan80: (Stephan: 6\/6; .... -\/-; *fails will save vs fluffy puppy* )
CGNakibe
: (Burning the midnight Willpower here folks.)
Lithaladhwen: (Ha!)
T3chn0Namagomi
: That's what I saw.
dragongurl4390: "Hmn." *Takes of cloak, slinging it over one shoulder, to reveal a very nice body, athletic and slim, clothed in a white deerskin tunic with leather stitching>
Lithaladhwen: ....*ahem*
dragongurl4390
: white hose of a soft, flexible material, and white knee high boots that fold over that the top*
Lithaladhwen: I'll be right back. Stephan, Mid. See you in a few.
Lithaladhwen
: Be right back. Seriously.
dragongurl4390
: *She glances over.*
T3chn0Namagomi: (Wow, stop trying to seduce Myrnal, damnit)
CGNakibe: (Says the guy that plays Zeiren. >:P)
dragongurl4390: ((>> *Has no idea what you're talking about. Honestly.))
T3chn0Namagomi: (I was joking. XP)
dragongurl4390: **)
Lithaladhwen: (Ouch. Touche.)
dragongurl4390
: >>; ))
T3chn0Namagomi: (Now, now. Zeiren just flirts. He doesn't try to lure anyone in for sex)
CGNakibe: (Helena may beg to differ.)
Lithaladhwen: (*snicker*)
CGNakibe
: (Anyway, don't let me interrupt RP.)
T3chn0Namagomi: (Anyway, back to RP)
dragongurl4390: ((Indeed))
FFFan80: Well, you seem more cheerful now *to Mid* >.>
Lithaladhwen
: *slips away for a moment*
T3chn0Namagomi
: Anyway, name's Tanue. Tanue Ke-Luruma
Lithaladhwen: *goes to the nearest boozery and buys a double-shot of rum*
Lithaladhwen
: *drinku!*
FFFan80
: ¬_¬ ...do not push your good fortune, Stephan.
FFFan80
: <\/<;
dragongurl4390
: "Pleased to meet you." *Holds out free hand* "My name is Haku."
T3chn0Namagomi: *nods, shakes hand*
Lithaladhwen: *returns a minute or two later* Hey guys. Back. Remember, I promised you I wouldn't be long.
dragongurl4390
: *Her skin is as cold as ice*
FFFan80: Where'd you disppear off to?
T3chn0Namagomi
: *doesn't seem to be that surprised at the feeling*
Lithaladhwen: I needed to buy something.
Lithaladhwen
: Miss anything fun?
dragongurl4390
: *Smiles slightly* "You don't look surprised. Most people withdraw immediately."
T3chn0Namagomi: You're only slightly colder than the normal person, for all I can tell.
FFFan80: Just some chitchat, apparently.
T3chn0Namagomi
: Is it supposed to be something significant? o.o
Lithaladhwen: Well, that sucks. Sounds boring.
FFFan80
: Oh.
FFFan80
: I meant to say, Miss Myrnal, that was quite a performance.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Meanwhile, a relatively pretty girl walks up* Prophecies?
dragongurl4390: "When I was younger..." *Laughs slightly* "Well, let's say I had a run in with some nasy ice spirits, and they made me like them. Like snow and ice."
Lithaladhwen: Huh? Oh!
Lithaladhwen
: Thanks!
T3chn0Namagomi
: Oh, excuse me. ^^; Welcome! For a price, I can answer a question you desire me to.
T3chn0Namagomi: *the girl plunks down the money...* Who am I going to marry? Huh? Is it going to be some dreamy prince?
FFFan80: Yeah, sorry about uh, not seeing all of it.
Besyanteo
has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, that's fine. You were picking fights. I'd be doing the same if I didn't get roped into choreographing this every year.
T3chn0Namagomi
: Right, thanks for the payment...*does his magic-y thing* ...You'll be married to a middle-aged balding man who expects you to be barefoot and pregnant a lot of the time while he goes out drinking beer with his friends almost daily.
dragongurl4390: *Raises a brow*
T3chn0Namagomi: O_O *looks absolutely STUNNED...before bursting into tears*
dragongurl4390: *Finally gets fed up and goes back to the Prophecies stand.*
Lithaladhwen: Oh, Stephan. Your friend.
dragongurl4390
: *She glares* "Touch me and die a painful death"
T3chn0Namagomi: T_T WAAAAAHHHH!!!! You're lying!!! *runs off*
FFFan80: ......
FFFan80
: e_e
FFFan80
: *right back at her!*
T3chn0Namagomi
: o.o; ...I need a disclaimer.
dragongurl4390: *Pays* "What will I be doing in two days?"
Lithaladhwen: Hey now, woman. You threaten Stephan, the next dark alley you walk past will be your last.
T3chn0Namagomi
: o.o; Wow. This is the...third time today I've gotten this question, but, okay. *takes the money, starts magick-y stuff while the player goes off to get PIE*
Lithaladhwen: *exasperated sigh*
dragongurl4390
: "He also threatened me, thank you very much."
Lithaladhwen: He does that.
Lithaladhwen
: So?
dragongurl4390
: "And I don't think I'll be seeing my last dark alley for quite some time. Scales are very helpful for preventing slitted throats and stabbings. >
dragongurl4390: Anyway, if you didn't notice, I'm Dragon Kindred. I don't take stuff like that lightly."
Lithaladhwen: *snort* I don't have to tell you why I'm not worried. Suffice it to say I am not.
dragongurl4390
: "I deal in Death for my trade. I would be even the slightest bit worried if I were you."
Lithaladhwen: So? You think death scares me?
dragongurl4390
: "When the Dead are coming back to life, it should."
Lithaladhwen: You don't know much about mercenaries, do you? *grin* Any day is a good day to die. Especially if you're threatening to kill my friend.
Lithaladhwen
: So just go easy on the hostility. This is my hometown, and I don't like that shit here.
dragongurl4390
: *Shrugs* "As you wish."
dragongurl4390: "Just make sure your friend doesn't...what was it he said. Gut me like a fish? I think those were his words."
dragongurl4390: *Smiles at Stephen* "I have good hearing."
Lithaladhwen: *grin* Stephan's a nice guy. We're all nice people here.
Lithaladhwen
: I'm just looking out for my own, got it? Friend?
dragongurl4390
: *Hold out a clawed and scaled hand* "I would do the same, had I any fellows."
Lithaladhwen: *smirks* Forgive for not touching you, but the last necromancer I took down wanted to start casting shit on me. Suffice it to say... I think we understand each other.
FFFan80
: o_o
FFFan80
: *at a loss for words*
dragongurl4390
: *Smirks* "I don't do things like that." *She dropped her hand anyway.*
T3chn0Namagomi: I see you at odds with a group of people...at least seven or eight, though I think I can see more. A group that seems to dislike you for something you've apparently done.
Lithaladhwen: (Nama, that barefoot and pregnant thing was hi-fucking-larious.)
Lithaladhwen
: (I just backlogged and saw that.)
T3chn0Namagomi
: (XD)
dragongurl4390: *She glances at him.* "Fabulous. Just what I always like to hear." *Her tone was sarcastic*
T3chn0Namagomi: It's not like I have any control over what I see. ^^;
T3chn0Namagomi: (Partly based off of your Bizarro rant!)
T3chn0Namagomi: (So I have to give credit where it's due)
Lithaladhwen: Stephan, don't look at me like that. e_e
Lithaladhwen
: The fuck, man.
dragongurl4390
: *Looks to Stephan, raising a brow.*
dragongurl4390: ((Damn this is really hard now. I'm in a past tense para rp and this.))
Lithaladhwen: (Oh, jeez. That'd get confusing.)
dragongurl4390
: ((I have to go in like, five minutes))
Lithaladhwen: (Okay. Well, thanks for playing with us. I appreciate you jumping in.)
dragongurl4390
: ((^^ No problem))
dragongurl4390: ((It is confusing indeed.))
FFFan80: (Was fun =] )
T3chn0Namagomi
: (Indeed. Second time I've used this guy now)
Lithaladhwen: (I'm not done with you people yet. *points to the RP*)
T3chn0Namagomi
has left the room.
dragongurl4390: ((^^ Thank yew. I put up another picture of Lenore in that thread if you want to look at it ^^; *Likes her art. Most of the time*))
Lithaladhwen: (Damn it!)
dragongurl4390
: ((>>; ))
Lithaladhwen: (Thanks. I like the art.)
dragongurl4390
: ((Arigatou. ))
Lithaladhwen: (Well, Nama's retiring for the evening. Anyone else want to continue?)
dragongurl4390
: ((G'night guys. See you later.)) *She smiled.* "I must depart. Goodevening to you all."
Lithaladhwen: Seeya.
Lithaladhwen
: *little wave*
FFFan80
: Night
dragongurl4390: "Alas, I must as well depart. My horse needs care. Goodnight." They both walked off in diferent directions.
dragongurl4390 has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: (I'm still here. Does Dave want to RP, or possibly one of our lurkers?)
FFFan80
: (for a little bit, but I should probably get to bed early this evening)
Lithaladhwen: (Okay. I can be here a bit longer. Your move, man.)
FFFan80
: I'm... just a little surprised.
FFFan80
: That's all
FFFan80
: >\/>;
Lithaladhwen
: *shrug*
FFFan80
: >_>; ...honestly, perhaps you should have left things be...
Lithaladhwen
: It ended okay, didn't it?
Lithaladhwen
: We're all friends now.
Arch mage144
has entered the room.
Lithaladhwen: (Hey Brian.)
Arch mage144
: (Yo)
FFFan80
: ...somehow, I doubt that he will be inviting her to Tea.
FFFan80
: I might.
FFFan80
: If it's scalding hot
FFFan80
: Or poisoned.
Lithaladhwen
: *smirk*
FFFan80
: ....maybe... both... 9\/<
FFFan80
: *sighs* ~_~;
FFFan80
: Maybe flammable... or...
Lithaladhwen
: At any rate. Honesty is great. Now we all know where we stand, and nobody had to kill anyone.
Arch mage144
: (Where are we?)
Lithaladhwen
: It was great!
Lithaladhwen
: (I'll update you.)
FFFan80
: Yet.
Arch mage144
: (Shit, my chat lags. Downloading printer drivers. 10 MB file on shitty dial-up...)
FFFan80
: (Meep =[ )
Arch mage144
: (It's going to take over 40 minutes ;_; )
Lithaladhwen
: (Whoa.)
Arch mage144
: (Makes me glad I downloaded porn for the time I'd be home in advance!)
Lithaladhwen
: (Can you not say that with the Ardam font?!)
Arch mage144
: (It's not gnome porn or anything. It's wholesome lesbian porn.)
Lithaladhwen
: (Okay. Well, I can handle that.)
Arch mage144
: (Anyway, carry on RPing as though I hadn't started talking about porn.)
FFFan80
: Hey now.
FFFan80
: As long as she says out of my face, there's no problem -.-
FFFan80
: e_e
FFFan80
: What? >.>
Lithaladhwen
: I don't think she'll bother you. And if she does, I'll kill her. *shrugs*
Lithaladhwen
: It's not a big deal.
FFFan80
: ...
FFFan80
: Not everything needs to be solved with bloodshed! >_<
Lithaladhwen
: Only violent things. If she makes trouble, how do you think I should solve it? Daisies?
Lithaladhwen
: Chocolates?
Lithaladhwen
: Sex?
Lithaladhwen
: Dammara.
Lithaladhwen
: e_e
FFFan80
: I dunno, the last one seems to work for m... >_@
FFFan80
: *returns hand* anyway.
Arch mage144
: *Myrnal and her companions are approached by a young man, a half-elf dressed in a green tunic with a brown leather vest and leather pants*
Arch mage144
: *He has short, very light brown hair and green eyes, and his expression is clearly friendly...maybe excessively so*
FFFan80
: *sigh* I apologies, but I am accustomed to SOMEONE *glare* following that philosophy somewhat too often and...
FFFan80
: ...o_o? *distracted by the newcomer*
Arch mage144
: *around his neck he wears a large four-pointed compass-cross-looking emblem of Kazeros, and at his belt is a longsword in a sheath*
Lithaladhwen
: Well, that's fine, but I just don't think you can-- *jumps about three inches into the air and yelps in surprise*
Lithaladhwen
: Ardam! You scared the shit out of me.
FFFan80
: o_O
FFFan80
: IM: What the fuck?
FFFan80
: o.o? *out of habit, peeps astrally*
Arch mage144
: *salutes*
Lithaladhwen
: *mentally shakes herself* Right. Stephan and Midoku, this is Ardam.
Lithaladhwen
: Ardam, *points* Stephan, and *points* Midoku.
Arch mage144
: *Ardam is definitely a healer--his aura is pretty strong, and it bends a bit toward the holy planes...and there's something else there, but it's indistinct*
Arch mage144
: Ah! Nice to meet you. Are you friends of Myrnal's?
Arch mage144
: Sorry to startle you. I just got in town. When I heard about the festival, I figured I might stop by. General Silvar said you would probably be here.
FFFan80
: Um... I...suppose I am o.o;
FFFan80
: ...'suppose'? o_ó
FFFan80
: *w* ...I barely know the woman <_<;
Lithaladhwen
: It's cool. I just didn't expect to see you here.
FFFan80
: How is the General? He seemed preoccupied the last time I dropped off some literature I borrowed. o.o
FFFan80
: ¬\/¬ *...ever so brief look of rawr*
Arch mage144
: Ah, I think he's well.
Arch mage144
: He seems a little...worried about...something. He wouldn't really go into details, but I think he was concerned about something.
FFFan80
: *nod*
FFFan80
: He's always worried about shit, so what -\/-
FFFan80
: *sighs*
Lithaladhwen
: Worried about what? Oh, shit? Was it that thing we just finished?
Lithaladhwen
: He didn't say anything?
Arch mage144
: No, no, nothing to do with Dawn. I think that the King might be displeased with him.
Lithaladhwen
: Oh. Eh. He can handle that.
Lithaladhwen
: He told you about the Dawn thing, didn't he?
FFFan80
: I cannot say I am surprised <_<;
Lithaladhwen
: IM: I was hoping to somehow avoid that. Fucking Hakaril and his fucking mouth.
Arch mage144
: *nods* But he told me not to worry about it.
FFFan80
: ...
Arch mage144
: He said that you and some other trustworthy people were on it, and that I should concern myself with other things.
Lithaladhwen
: He said that?
Arch mage144
: Something like that, yeah. I assured him I would pursue other things while you took care of it. I think he told me I should just take a vacation or something.
Lithaladhwen
: Oh. *glances at Stephan* Well, uh... huh. Okay.
Lithaladhwen
: Glad he wasn't worried, I guess.
Arch mage144
: He seemed pretty confident that you and the others he'd assembled could do the job.
Arch mage144
: Who helped you?
Lithaladhwen
: *jerks a thumb in Stephan's direction* Stephan was one of the people who came.
Arch mage144
: *nods* I see!
Lithaladhwen
: Then some jerk who died and that sucked, Dawn's sister, a Nekojin named Kei, and Damian something or other.
Arch mage144
: I haven't properly introduced myself. *takes off one of his leather gloves and extends a hand to Stephen* Ardam Elmine, traveling holy knight and cleric of Kazeros.
FFFan80
: ....
FFFan80
: <\/< ...*glances at Myrnal*
FFFan80
: ....
FFFan80
: *shakes* Nice to meet ya.
FFFan80
: o_o
FFFan80
: -_-
FFFan80
: o_o
Arch mage144
: *has a firm handshake*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Good. No killing. Good start.
FFFan80
: IM: Well, he's not one of those frail as fucking piece of string elves, for once.
FFFan80
: Holy Knight... and Cleric.
FFFan80
: ...Isn't that a Paladin?
Arch mage144
: *Ardam's pretty well-built, and despite being slight of height (he's about 5'6") he's clearly got the body composition of a warrior*
Lithaladhwen
: *tugs on her earlobe idly and just waits for people to get introduced*
FFFan80
: *somewhere in Doma*
Arch mage144
: Somewhat, but Kazeros doesn't really have paladins per se.
FFFan80
: Dan: *sneezes* >_<
FFFan80
: o_ó?
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Just a bunch of crazies like Ardam and me.
Arch mage144
: The idea of a paladin generally implies a rigid church structure and heirarchy of knights dedicated to defending that structure.
FFFan80
: ...and you all are?
Arch mage144
: Kazeros' followers have no such organization, just dedicated warriors and mages ready to lay down their lives in the name of freedom.
FFFan80
: I see.
Lithaladhwen
: *sweatdrop* That's a little dramatic, isn't it?
FFFan80
: He's a holy man
FFFan80
: They're ALWAYS bloody dramatic ~\/~;
FFFan80
: *elsewhere*
Arch mage144
: Dramatic? How so?
FFFan80
: Dan: *sneezes again* >_< Bloody dust.
Arch mage144
: It's just true. o_o
Lithaladhwen
: *headscratch* Well, the whole... I dunno. Never mind.
Lithaladhwen
: I don't think I could explain it so you'd understand.
FFFan80
: Well, I find it very admirable. o.o
Lithaladhwen
: *subject change* Anyway. What've you been up to?
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Quit the noble mission crap. Gods. Makes me feel really awkward.
Arch mage144
: Oh, really just...not much. Travelling a little. I went back to Nekonia for the sake of nostalgia.
Arch mage144
: I would've gone to Ka'thalar, but it's a mess and it's too far away.
FFFan80
: o.o?
FFFan80
: Trouble brewing down there?
Lithaladhwen
: There was a problem a while back. Dawn's master.
Arch mage144
: The rebuilding after Elaith's little rampage has gone slowly, and they're on the edge of civil war. Something about disputed territories.
Lithaladhwen
: I see no reason to go back. They can sort themselves out. I mean, hell. Yadali is still commuting. If shit really went bad, she'd say something to someone.
Lithaladhwen
: Probably Silvar, and then he'd drag me into it.
Arch mage144
: I don't know. I think that those druids can handle themselves.
Lithaladhwen
: *shrugs* Listen. Do you guys want to go sit someplace? I'm kind of beat.
Lithaladhwen
: We were up at dawn rehearsing.
Arch mage144
: Yeah, that's fine by me!
Lithaladhwen
: Let's go...someplace that isn't my parents' bar. I need to relax.
Lithaladhwen
: Stephan? Midoku? Interested at all?
Arch mage144
: Your parents prevent you from relaxing?
Lithaladhwen
: Sometimes I need to drink in other places, okay?
Arch mage144
: o_o Well, sure, I understand.
FFFan80
: Sure, why not?
FFFan80
: I...suppose so.
Lithaladhwen
: Awesome. Haven't had guy time in ages. Not since everybody got drunk before Corrigan tried to kill us all.
Lithaladhwen
: *leads the way to some random bar that doesn't matter*
Lithaladhwen
: *it just isn't The Shining Blade*
Arch mage144
: ...
Arch mage144
: IM: Guy time o.O?
Lithaladhwen
: *Whoa, they arrive at a bar!*
Lithaladhwen
: *Amazing!*
FFFan80
: IM: ...I do hope this will not involve fisticuffs ~_~;
FFFan80
: IM: I wonder if anyone's face will need to be introduced to a table...
Lithaladhwen
: *orders a glass of chianti and a steak* Fucking hungry.
Lithaladhwen
: Anyone else? I'll pay.
Arch mage144
: ...um...well, you don't have to pay for me.
FFFan80
: Eh, I'll just have something to drink.
Lithaladhwen
: Shut up. This is my hometown, I invited everybody out, and I'm paying for your food so order.
FFFan80
: >_>;
Arch mage144
: Okay, okay!
Arch mage144
: *orders a leg of lamb and some wine* >.>;
Lithaladhwen
: *nods approvingly*
Arch mage144
: So, do you dance in the festival every year?
Lithaladhwen
: *shrug* Yeah. They pay me to choreograph it.
FFFan80
: It must be quite fun for you. ^_^
Lithaladhwen
: I... I guess. It's nice to do something besides kill people for a living.
Arch mage144
: *quirks an eyebrow* Well, yeah...
FFFan80
: <_<;
Lithaladhwen
: It's not that it gets old, but sometimes a bit of variety is... nice.
Arch mage144
: But I can't say you've ever killed anyone who didn't deserve it.
FFFan80
: >_> .......
Lithaladhwen
: Sure you can.
Lithaladhwen
: But we're not going to talk about that.
Lithaladhwen
: Stephan.
Lithaladhwen
: What are you having?
Lithaladhwen
: Eat something.
FFFan80
: Well, what are the offerin?
Lithaladhwen
: I don't know. Food. Meats. Pastas. Rice things. Soup. Pie. Cheese.
Lithaladhwen
: Pick something.
Lithaladhwen
: *hands him a menu*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Pick something so we can talk about shallow and meaningless things.
Arch mage144
: *is presented with lamb, proceeds to eat it with a fork and a dagger*
Arch mage144
: Speaking of food, this is really good!
Lithaladhwen
: ...*laughs*
Lithaladhwen
: And people say I'm knife-crazy. Glad you're enjoying it.
Arch mage144
: Well, what else am I going to eat this with? It's a big chunk of lamb meat. I have to cut it off the bone somehow. I can't eat the bones.
Lithaladhwen
: *waves her hand at him as she laughs* It's cool. Don't worry about it.
FFFan80
: *orders a meal!*
Arch mage144
: At least I'm not using a magical dagger or anything.
Arch mage144
: That would just be excessive. I don't think I need to electrocute my food while I eat it, for example.
Lithaladhwen
: You could, though. Do you want to? I have one that'll be sharper.
Lithaladhwen
: I have knives that do things besides zap stuff.
Lithaladhwen
: *is totally not wearing any visible knives*
Arch mage144
: No! I don't need that.
Lithaladhwen
: Heh.
Lithaladhwen
: Midoku? Hungry?
Lithaladhwen
: I demand that you let me buy you something.
FFFan80
: 6.6 ...well, the seafood appears interesting...
FFFan80
: No
FFFan80
: ....
FFFan80
: And why not? o\/o?
Lithaladhwen
: ...
Arch mage144
: What? Why can't he order seafood?
FFFan80
: >_> Kitiwa. Festival.
FFFan80
: .....
FFFan80
: *6_6*; *skims for something else*
Lithaladhwen
: ...What the shit?
FFFan80
: You had to be there *nod*
Arch mage144
: o_O Um...
Lithaladhwen
: ....Oookay.
Arch mage144
: ...I see...
FFFan80
: ...SO
FFFan80
: UM
FFFan80
: ...
FFFan80
: YOU TRAVEL A LOT, SIR?
FFFan80
: *>.>*;
Arch mage144
: Yes, indeed. *nod*
Arch mage144
: It's part of the job description.
FFFan80
: ...*coughs* I see... you must see much of the world, then.
Arch mage144
: Oh, yes, I see quite a lot of it.
Arch mage144
: But I'm not really out to sightsee, exactly. Though I'm a little lost as to what I should be doing now that I've accomplished my primary divine mission.
Arch mage144
: You always have to wonder about stuff like that. I think it means I'm supposed to do whatever I want.
FFFan80
: Oh? o.o
Arch mage144
: But I kind of miss having the direction.
Lithaladhwen
: ...
Lithaladhwen
: Things come up. You'll... I don't know. Think of something.
FFFan80
: Well, some of us manage just fine without it, so I'd start figuring that out soon -\/-
FFFan80
: >\/o;
Arch mage144
: Not that I'm hoping anything terrible happens or anything
FFFan80
: *was that a slight bump under the table?* >.>;
Lithaladhwen
: (Heh.)
FFFan80
: I would hope not. o.o;
Lithaladhwen
: Yeah, well. Maybe Kazeros thinks you've earned some Me-Time.
Lithaladhwen
: Otherwise, you'd have been dragged into the cult nonsense instead of the rest of us.
Arch mage144
: *laughs* You could be right about that. But then, Kazeros thinks everyone should have lots of me-time.
Arch mage144
: I'm fine, I'm just a little inclined to reminesce about the adventure we had.
Arch mage144
: Some bard was trying to get me to tell her all about it. *nod*
Lithaladhwen
: ...That's nice. e_e Did you do it?
FFFan80
: <_<?
Arch mage144
: Of course I did! I made sure that she knew all about the things you guys accomplished.
FFFan80
: Why would that be a problem? o_o;
Lithaladhwen
: ....'kay.
Lithaladhwen
: It's not! I just-- Never mind. It's not.
Lithaladhwen
: There's no problem.
FFFan80
: >_> ......
Arch mage144
: Yeah, why would it be a problem?
Arch mage144
: Do you not want me to tell stories?
FFFan80
: I don't know about you.
Lithaladhwen
: No, it's fine. If you want to, go ahead. I'm not going to tell you to stop.
FFFan80
: But any kind of notoriety, be it for a good or bad thing.
Arch mage144
: Is something wrong?
FFFan80
: Tends to bite me in the ass.
FFFan80
: Either I have people who want to beat my ass out of vengeance.
FFFan80
: Or every Godsdamn sobstory in the area begging me to fix shit they should take care of themselves.
FFFan80
: *munch* -\/-
Arch mage144
: Well, I hope anyone who would want revenge in the name of those foul villains comes and knocks on the door of my castle.
FFFan80
: e_e ...good for you.
Arch mage144
: I'll cut him down where he stands and thank him for saving me the walk.
FFFan80
: >_>; *sigh*
Lithaladhwen
: ....
Arch mage144
: (Cripes, Zangetsu, you're so melancholy.)
Lithaladhwen
: People who've got a problem with me can come bug me. I'm not worried about it.
Arch mage144
: Exactly!
FFFan80
: Wait til it happens a few times... *sip* -.-
Lithaladhwen
: I just see no reason why there should be a big thing about... me being involved. I didn't end up contributing a whole lot, and it seems really weird to tell people I did.
Arch mage144
: Oh, I'm making sure that I explain that everyone helped equally. *nods*
Arch mage144
: We couldn't have done it without Bixby or Rildyn or Yadali or Zeke or even Corrigan.
Lithaladhwen
: ...
Lithaladhwen
: So, um.
Lithaladhwen
: I hate to be the one to shoot down the bubble of happiness, Ardam.
Lithaladhwen
: But I don't think Corrigan and I ended up being the most striking assets to the mission.
Arch mage144
: Okay, maybe we could've done it without Corrigan.
FFFan80
: o.ó
FFFan80
: Who, now?
Arch mage144
: You did a lot. You killed Arachael practically by yourself! And there was that nonsense with Sakhiel, and you took out a bunch of illithids...
Arch mage144
: And without you, who would've negotiated with the crystal dragons?
FFFan80
: ...o_o;
Lithaladhwen
: ...I don't know. Dawn?
Lithaladhwen
: I heard about that, you know.
Lithaladhwen
: What time is it?
FFFan80
: o.o?
FFFan80
: *looks for nearby clock*
Lithaladhwen
: *Der.... 8 pm.*
Arch mage144
: Dawn was not going to negotiate with them in our favor. >_>
Lithaladhwen
: Oh, damn. It's getting late.
Lithaladhwen
: Stephan and Midoku may... need to head out pretty soon if you want free room and board from my grandparents. They go to bed early, but they'd love to have you.
FFFan80
: Ah, I see. o.o
FFFan80
: Well, then I suppose we shall have to be going.
FFFan80
: Or we could just pay for it, this is getting good. >.>
FFFan80
: ....
Lithaladhwen
: I... uh...
Lithaladhwen
: What?
FFFan80
: ...what do you mean 'What'? o_ó
Lithaladhwen
: What?
Arch mage144
: *blinks* Why do they have to leave?
FFFan80
: I never heard about this stuff before, I'm curious.
Lithaladhwen
: I told them they can stay with my family. But my grandparents don't take guests all hours of the night.
Lithaladhwen
: Stephan, I'll....agh.
Lithaladhwen
: I'll tell you later.
FFFan80
: I would also like to remind someone, of the gentleman's cart that somehow got set ablaze over here... and had to be compensated.
FFFan80
: e_e
FFFan80
: ....
FFFan80
: That was totally justified and you know it >\/>
FFFan80
: e.e
FFFan80
: ....*sigh* Whatever, fine.
FFFan80
: Nice meeting you Holy Basher/Doctor, or whatever it is you call yourself.
FFFan80
: Catch ya later, Myrnal.
FFFan80
: *sigh*
Arch mage144
: o_O
Arch mage144
: IM: Holy basher?
Arch mage144
: IM: What's he on?
Lithaladhwen
: See you... probably in a day or so, Stephan. You're staying in my house, after all.
FFFan80
: Anyway, it was nice to meet you sir, perhaps we shall cross paths again?
Arch mage144
: Indeed!
FFFan80
: *nods*
FFFan80
: And thank you again, Miss Myrnal
Lithaladhwen
: Don't mention it, Midoku.
FFFan80
: *and off they go!*
Arch mage144
: Hmm. *finishes his wine* This was a good restaurant choice, Myrnal.
FFFan80
: (night all)
CGNakibe
: (Night Dave)
Lithaladhwen: Thanks. Glad that living here is good for something.
Lithaladhwen
: (Thanks, Dave!)
Arch mage144
: (Later)
Lithaladhwen
: (And she will tell him another time.)
FFFan80
has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: And now that we're alone. About Dawn?
Arch mage144
: Yeah, what about her? Tell me the story.
Lithaladhwen
: The story of the job we just did? Sure. She brainwashed a bunch of pyrokinetic kids into joining a cult dedicated to resurrecting her master.
Lithaladhwen
: Her sister ended up working with us because she was next in line to be sacrificed for Dawn's obsessive whatever that she had for Elaith.
Lithaladhwen
: That's it.
Lithaladhwen
: That's the story.
Arch mage144
: Hmm.
Arch mage144
: I'm glad you stopped her.
Arch mage144
: Because that's just terrible.
Arch mage144
: ...is that all you wanted to say about her?
Lithaladhwen
: ....Yeah.
Lithaladhwen
: What else is there?
Arch mage144
: (Yesterday...)
Arch mage144
: (.......)
Arch mage144
: (...we killed her.)
Lithaladhwen
: (XD)
Lithaladhwen
: (Fuck you, man. She didn't just get lazy and not tell the rest.)
Arch mage144
: ...I don't know.
Arch mage144
: But you brought it up.
Lithaladhwen
: (She got angsty and didn't tell the rest.)
Arch mage144
: Why did you bring it up?
Lithaladhwen
: You did! You mentioned the whole negotiation thing.
Arch mage144
: You don't sound like you want to talk about it.
Lithaladhwen
: That's when she first became a pain in the ass.
Arch mage144
: But she wouldn't have negotiated to help us get the orb from the dragons.
Arch mage144
: She would've negotiated to get it for Elaith.
Arch mage144
: ...that's why we needed you, obviously.
Arch mage144
: I thought that was clear!
Lithaladhwen
: You didn't need me for anything. I just did what nobody else was. If I weren't there, Bixby or Rildyn would have figured something out.
Arch mage144
: But you were there, and they didn't, because you took care of it.
Arch mage144
: Take responsibility for the good things you've done as well as the ones you aren't so proud of!
Lithaladhwen
: *shrug* You got the job done without me. I hung around at the beginning, and made things a little easier while I was there. That's good enough.
Arch mage144
: *looks her in the eye* You made a difference. We were a team, no matter what you say, and it was important that we all worked together.
Arch mage144
: I thought I could do it alone when I got started, and I was wrong. Without you guys I probably would've died in that wizard's tower.
Lithaladhwen
: *breaks eye contact* Sure. Fine. Whatever.
Lithaladhwen
: And hell, Corrigan was more worried about you then than I was.
Lithaladhwen
: *shudders*
Arch mage144
: *shrugs* There was some good in him, somewhere.
Lithaladhwen
: ...There was good in Dawn, too.
Arch mage144
: It's just unfortunate that it was never a terrible priority for him to look for it.
Lithaladhwen
: I killed her.
Lithaladhwen
: I killed Corrigan.
Arch mage144
: There's good in everybody. We're all free to make our own choices and do what we want.
Lithaladhwen
: It doesn't matter what you are. It matters what you do.
Lithaladhwen
: They did terrible shit. I killed them.
Lithaladhwen
: I'd expect anyone else to do the same with me.
Arch mage144
: That's right. When we decide that we're going to deny others the right to make choices so that we can have what we want...
Arch mage144
: ...then we no longer deserve that freedom.
Arch mage144
: The act of denying another's freedom is the ultimate evil.
Arch mage144
: It's not the job of the followers of Kazeros to go around punishing dictators and serving them justice, though. Not really.
Arch mage144
: It's just...important to me that people who would make others suffer needlessly to achieve their own goals be stopped. With violence if need be. I'm sure you understand.
Arch mage144
: Oh, I'm getting all philosophical!
Arch mage144
: It must be the wine.
Lithaladhwen
: Sure. *shrug* It's fine.
Lithaladhwen
: And I do agree with you. *finishes her own wine*
Lithaladhwen
: I just don't know what good I'm supposed to be if I can't kill the things that need killing. So that's what I do.
Lithaladhwen
: I'll leave the fluffy cuddly shit to other people.
Arch mage144
: You have other talents. Like dancing.
Arch mage144
: You're quite good at that, as far as I can tell. Very acrobatic.
Arch mage144
: You could make a living as an entertainer, I'm sure of it!
Lithaladhwen
: Uh huh. Well, that's perfect. I'll save the world by teaching everyone to samba.
Lithaladhwen
: Hot Inustani dance will redeem us all.
Arch mage144
: Well, maybe it won't save the world, but it'll brighten it.
Arch mage144
: Creativity makes life a lot more interesting, and it vanquishes the evils of ignorance and boredom. *nods*
Lithaladhwen
: That's... that's nice.
Arch mage144
: It is!
Arch mage144
: You should teach me to dance sometime. I'm not very good at it. You'd never know I have elvish blood, as clumsy as I can be on my feet sometimes.
Lithaladhwen
: o_o
Lithaladhwen
: Uh... sure. I'm giving Stephan secret dance lessons, so why not one more.
Arch mage144
: Secret?
Lithaladhwen
: Yeah. We're hoping that once he shows Midoku what he can do, that Midoku will be interested. *shrug*
Arch mage144
: Ah!
Lithaladhwen
: He needs some fun anyway. Last mission was rough.
Arch mage144
: Are they a couple, then?
Lithaladhwen
: Yeah.
Arch mage144
: *quirks an eyebrow* Married?
Lithaladhwen
: Think so.
Lithaladhwen
: Haven't asked.
Arch mage144
: Aw, damn. If not, you have to let me peform the ceremony!
Lithaladhwen
: I... I... will relay that if it comes up.
Arch mage144
: I haven't performed a marriage in a long time. It's fun.
Arch mage144
: Especially among friends.
Arch mage144
: It's a great excuse to have a big party!
Lithaladhwen
: ...Well. I'll... if it comes up, I'll tell them.
Arch mage144
: Great!
Arch mage144
: I'm looking forward to it already.
Lithaladhwen
: *blink* ...How can you be so... excited all the time?
Lithaladhwen
: I mean, do you sleep?
Arch mage144
: Of course I do!
Arch mage144
: At night, like I'm sure you do, when I get tired.
Arch mage144
: I bought a case of that beverage that the airship pilot was making. It's really good.
Lithaladhwen
: 'kay. I didn't know if you spent all night bouncing off the walls thinking of ways to save the world or something.
Arch mage144
: No, no, you can't save the world if you never sleep.
Arch mage144
: You'll collapse from exhaustion during the climactic battle or something.
Lithaladhwen
: *smirk* Probably.
Lithaladhwen
: *is halfway through another glass of wine*
Arch mage144
: Almost definitely.
Arch mage144
: *yawns* Maybe I should just find an inn in this town. The next one's definitely too far away to keep travelling tonight.
Lithaladhwen
: *shrug* Everyone's crashing at my place.
Lithaladhwen
: My grandmother would make you cookies.
Arch mage144
: Nah, I don't want to bother your parents.
Lithaladhwen
: No, seriously. You should convince them that people hang out with me without getting yelled at or threatened.
Lithaladhwen
: Just tell them you're married or gay or something so that Yanna doesn't try to set you up with me.
Lithaladhwen
: They don't know... things yet.
Arch mage144
: Um, okay.
Arch mage144
: *scratches head* You could just tell them.
Lithaladhwen
: *sighs and scratches her head* I don't think I should finish this. *shoves the glass away*
Lithaladhwen
: Whoa, no. It's much easier for everyone else to lie than for me to say that.
Lithaladhwen
: Out of the question.
Arch mage144
: o_O How is that a rational idea? You have to go out of your way to explain to everyone else that they have to lie.
Lithaladhwen
: So?
Arch mage144
: You tell the truth once and you're worry free forever.
Lithaladhwen
: *vigorous head shake*
Arch mage144
: Ooookay, well, if you say so.
Lithaladhwen
: (Wow. My internet blipped because of an emergency broadcast test.)
Lithaladhwen
: (Lag test.)
Lithaladhwen
: ('kay.)
Arch mage144
: If they ask, I'm married to my blade. Like a true warrior!
Lithaladhwen
: Uh... hm. Sounds good.
Arch mage144
: That's not so much of a lie, really.
Lithaladhwen
: Could say the same of most of the people I know.
Lithaladhwen
: Except for Hakaril and Stephan, who are married to people.
Arch mage144
: Perhaps, but it's doubly true of me. I haven't found any particular good reason to stick around anyone long enough to get married to them.
Arch mage144
: Though I did have a good time in Nekonia.
Arch mage144
: Trying to relax a little. If my god wants me to take a vacation then I'm going to do it!
Arch mage144
: Ironic that I'd be looking for orders from the god of freedom, I know, but hey.
Arch mage144
: I'm just trying to do my best like everyone else.
Lithaladhwen
: Heh.
Lithaladhwen
: S'a good start.
Arch mage144
: Yeah!
Arch mage144
: (*Prints a bunch of articles about antioxidants, vitamin supplements, and health care >_<*)
Lithaladhwen
: *blinks a few times* Wow. That wine is stronger than I thought it'd be. Damn.
Lithaladhwen
: Haven't really had anything to drink since... oh... before you came back.
Lithaladhwen
: I... think ....that it was valthka then. Maybe.
Lithaladhwen
: I don't black out with anything else, so it must've been.
Lithaladhwen
: *nods*
Arch mage144
: *laughs*
Lithaladhwen
: No more booze for Myrnal tonight.
Lithaladhwen
: Oh! Question.
Lithaladhwen
: Bixby and Rildyn were there. Did they mention me doing anything weird?
Lithaladhwen
: I forgot to ask them if I did.
Lithaladhwen
: I didn't like... dance on a table or anything, right?
Arch mage144
: No. *nods*
Arch mage144
: They never did.
Lithaladhwen
: *salute* Well, they'd have mentioned that, and that's all I care about.
Lithaladhwen
: I need to *attempts with... some success* to get up and push her chair in.
Lithaladhwen
: >.o Fucking chianti...
Lithaladhwen
: (That asterisk was wrong. You know what I meant*
Lithaladhwen
: )
Lithaladhwen
: (Typing not so good! What's wrong with me?!)
Arch mage144
: (I...don't know)
Lithaladhwen
: (*cracks her back* There. My spine was misaligned. It was clearly giving me some form of aphasia.)
Arch mage144
: (Fuck you, chiropracty-fool!)
Lithaladhwen
: (Heh.)
Arch mage144
: *stands as well* I guess I'll stay with your family. Mind walking me there? I don't know where you live.
Lithaladhwen
: *puts money on the table for everyone's dinner* There.
Arch mage144
: Thanks for buying me dinner, by the way.
Lithaladhwen
: And yeah that's... that's fine.
Lithaladhwen
: No big.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Least I can do for Mister Optimism.
Lithaladhwen
: *heads out and points to the right* That way.
Arch mage144
: *salutes cheerfully* Okay!
Lithaladhwen
: Also. I should warn you I have a large and excitable dog.
Lithaladhwen
: His name is Heinrich.
Lithaladhwen
: He jumps. I haven't broken him of that yet.
Arch mage144
: Oh. I can handle dogs.
Arch mage144
: As long as they're friendly.
Lithaladhwen
: He's a big three-legged bundle of canine enthusiasm. You'll probably get along with him better even than I do.
Lithaladhwen
: You'll be fine.
Arch mage144
: Great!
Lithaladhwen
: *sigh* Yeah. I'll probably just shove him off on you tonight. I don't feel like big fuzzy company in my bed. You mind?
Arch mage144
: Not at all.
Lithaladhwen
: Good. He's yours 'til morning. After that I'm sure my grandmother will be busy stuffing you with cookies, so be prepared for that, too.
Lithaladhwen
: *continues leading on and ZOMG there it is*
Lithaladhwen
: Rooms are upstairs. Don't worry about checking with Yanna and Kerran. They won't care.
Arch mage144
: Okay, if you're sure.
Arch mage144
: Heinrich and I will have a blast.
Lithaladhwen
: Yeah. They pick up strays all the time. S'how I ended up here, and Heinrich, and gods only know who else.
Lithaladhwen
: *opens the door to dog-tackling justice and....*
Lithaladhwen
: </RP?>
Arch mage144
: O_O
Arch mage144
: </RP>
Lithaladhwen
: (Ha! DOGS!)
Arch mage144
: Good times.
Lithaladhwen
: (DOGDOGDOG)
Lithaladhwen
: Oh, wait.
Arch mage144
: You don't need those.
Lithaladhwen
: This is my font.
Arch mage144
: Man, I'm tired.
Arch mage144
: Yeah, it is.
Lithaladhwen
: Me too.
Arch mage144
: I have a whole stack of health articles for mom to read now.
Lithaladhwen
: *snort*
Arch mage144
: I'm going to go over them with a highlighter XD
Lithaladhwen
: Glad it was a productive evening.
Arch mage144
: I'll worry about the details of those later, I was just horrified.
Arch mage144
: I polled the rest of my family about it as well.
Lithaladhwen
: Oh dear.
Arch mage144
: "Okay, Chad, suppose I told you that I could fix your asthma by poking a specific part of your foot with a specific pressure."
Arch mage144
: "Would you think that might work?"
Arch mage144
: "Uh, no"
Arch mage144
: Dad's response was similar. *laughs*
Arch mage144
: He went on about the quack chiropracters that claim they can do shit like cure diabetes by playing with your spine
Lithaladhwen
: No way.
Lithaladhwen
: Diabetes is a virus.
Lithaladhwen
: Because you know, they say if you catch AIDS, you can catch anything.
Arch mage144
: So is dyslexia, I hear.
Arch mage144
: And even the deadly sexlexia.
Lithaladhwen
: Dyslexia, diabetes, alzheimers....
Lithaladhwen
: *doesn't claim to understand Kai's law*
Lithaladhwen
: *just enforces it*
Idran1701
: Wait, I thought diabetes was a demon that invaded through your pores.
Idran1701: Also still here lurking. :D
Arch mage144: Didn't you make Kai's law?
Lithaladhwen
: Hush, Brian.
Arch mage144
: Oh, man.
Lithaladhwen
: Also, Idran: What the hell?
Lithaladhwen
: How long were you lurking?
Idran1701
: When'd you link me?
Arch mage144: *enrolls Idran in the Miskatonic University Spelling Bee*
Idran1701
: ...5 hours ago, apparantly.
Lithaladhwen: At the, uh... the beginning. Have you been popping in and reading things like a creepy AIM creeper, or did you just come back?
Idran1701
: The former.
Arch mage144: If you miss a word, you get fed to the elder gods. Good luck!
Lithaladhwen
: Heh.
Arch mage144
: Also, bathroom. Then probably sleep.
Idran1701
: Except the creepy part.
Lithaladhwen: Heh.
Lithaladhwen
: You all have no idea how dangerously close you were to Myrnal's backstory. Count yourselves lucky.
Lithaladhwen
: The indescribable creeping horror that is her psyche spared your feeble minds for now.
Lithaladhwen
: That's the best you can hope for.
Idran1701
: ...Wait, if it's indescribable, how could we have been subjected to it?
Lithaladhwen: Stop questioning my Lovecraftisms.
Lithaladhwen
: It's INDESCRIBABLE.
Idran1701
: Not Lovecrafty enough. You haven't called anything Cyclopean yet. :-(
Lithaladhwen: And also somehow INCONCEIVABLE.
CGNakibe
: ... so stop describing it.
Idran1701: Or non-Euclidean.
Lithaladhwen: XD
Lithaladhwen
: That's a good one.
CGNakibe
: And obviously you've concieved of it somewhere.
Lithaladhwen: Stop questioning me with your minds and your words.
CGNakibe
: Oooh. non-Euclidian. Haven't heard that in a while.
Idran1701: I heard that one regularly for about 5 weeks in last year's geometry class. :D
Lithaladhwen: XD
Idran1701
: Yay for rejection of the parallel postulate!
Idran1701: Horray hyperbolic and spherical geometry!
Lithaladhwen: Rejected like YOUR FACE.
Arch mage144
: I like non-Euclidean geometry. It's fascinating.
Arch mage144
: We did a whole unit on it in high school geometry.
Idran1701
: Both types?
Idran1701: Neat.
Idran1701: Either way.
Lithaladhwen: Anyway. Creeping horror. Dancing. Drinking and three-legged dogs. I feel like I've contributed something tonight.
Arch mage144
: Just different types of it, we talked about hyperbolic, spherical, the Poincare model, etc.
Lithaladhwen
: Thanks for playing and/or lurking!
Idran1701
: *nod*
Idran1701: And no problem, Kai. Hopefully Lenore'll stick around, she seemed nifty. :O
Lithaladhwen: Indeed.
Lithaladhwen
: Met her on a blog site several years ago.
Idran1701
: *nod*
Idran1701: Oh, and if I don't see you tomorrow, happy Thanksgiving!
Lithaladhwen: You too!
Lithaladhwen
: Eat muchly and get muchly fat!

Arch mage144: This is high quality.
Lithaladhwen
: *click*
Arch mage144
: Naturopaths arguing amongst themselves. *laughing*
Lithaladhwen
: e_<
Idran1701
: Heh.
PapatymisonN: *emerges from lurking, eats someone's corotid artery*
Arch mage144: All about licensing and shit.
Lithaladhwen
: Noooo! I need that!
Arch mage144
: Well shit, I can't do anything about that.
Arch mage144
: How did you do that without breaking the skin, though?
Idran1701
: Carefully.
Idran1701: *beats Chuck to it*
Lithaladhwen: G'night all.
Lithaladhwen
: Love, peace, doughnuts.
Idran1701
: Night!
Arch mage144: *steals Chuck's thyroid before leaving*
Arch mage144
has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, that's harsh.
PapatymisonN
: Ah, hell.
Lithaladhwen: *lurks to sleep*
Idran1701
: No! Now how will he get gout?
Idran1701: ...Or is it a goiter? I always get the two confused.
PapatymisonN: *yoinks Ashley's pre-frontal cortex, in spite*
Lithaladhwen: *yoinks Charles' amygdala*
Lithaladhwen
: There. Let's see you get your emotions back NOW.
Lithaladhwen
: And while I'm at it!
Lithaladhwen
: *takes the hippocampus*
Lithaladhwen
: Now your memory won't work either!
PapatymisonN
: I do not need emotions, Ashley. I am now utterly devoted to logic... I think.
PapatymisonN: *steals all Ashley's glands*
Lithaladhwen: ACK
Lithaladhwen
: *is deglandulated*
PapatymisonN
: You are now unable to secrete.
KnightsofSquare has left the room.
