You have just entered room "gaeransdoitatten."
pd Rydia: AHH IT'S A KITTEN
PapatymisonN: Hi Ashley.
Lithaladhwen: Whoa, you haven't started?
PapatymisonN: Nope.
pd Rydia: no :-(
pd Rydia: and: I'll play Rune if you like
PapatymisonN: ... I think I do.
T3chn0Namagomi: Rune?
Lithaladhwen: Brian and I intend to watch Bleach after dinner is done. I can come in after that if you need me.
PapatymisonN: Kay.
PapatymisonN: And do you know who Jansen Cade is?
OMG Priam has left the room.
pd Rydia: http://mysidia.org/rpgww/Alicia_Faye_Rune
CGNakibe has left the room.
pd Rydia: my cat is sitting on my hip and weaving back and forth like a drunk
pd Rydia: she's not kneading
pd Rydia: just weaving
pd Rydia: ...well I know who I'm RPing
pd Rydia: >:
PapatymisonN: So do I.
PapatymisonN: Anyone else?
THENinjaRabbi: I'm going to sleep, y'all. No point in staying awake.
THENinjaRabbi: have fun, though.
CGNakibe has entered the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: Is this one of those Baronian RPs, I take it?
PapatymisonN: Uh... no...
PapatymisonN: Jansen, for one, is staying the hell out of the whole thing.
PapatymisonN: I kinda want this in Doma.
PapatymisonN: Opposition? Anyone?
pd Rydia: nightyo
pd Rydia: Doma I figured
pd Rydia: I don't feel like shaking the arpeeboat
PapatymisonN: ... anyone else in, guys? Doug? Shaun? ... Chris?
T3chn0Namagomi: Lemme get this scenario finished first
PapatymisonN: KaY.
pd Rydia: k
T3chn0Namagomi: So, hm...who to play, who to play...

blender_bunny@mac.com: (WHUTS HAPPENIN IN THIS CHAT?)
T3chn0Namagomi: (I can't decide on a character to use here.)

pd Rydia: let's get this RP rollin'
blender_bunny@mac.com: Wooh I'm going get to use my new character before sunday!
blender_bunny@mac.com: (Some one going intro >.>)
Lithaladhwen: (Sorry I was gone. I was using my bankai to cut my hair.)
Lithaladhwen: (That was a joke.)
CGNakibe: (See? DEAD)
Lithaladhwen: (Where the fuck is Charles?)
Lithaladhwen: (Okay. Dia?)
Lithaladhwen: (Are you here?)
Lithaladhwen: (Damn it! This needs to not be a catastrofuck of absent players.)
TheWaiChibiAngel has left the room.

Lithaladhwen: (So Dia. Do you know where Charles went?)
pd Rydia: (nope
Besyanteo has entered the room.
Besyanteo: (*plays porn music*)
blender_bunny@mac.com: (Pizza? I DIDN'T ORER ANY PIZZA)
CGNakibe: (Hehehe)
Lithaladhwen: (And you know what happens next.)
Lithaladhwen: (He intro's the RP.)
Besyanteo: (>_> Oh yes?)
Besyanteo: (Well then.)
Besyanteo: (...Me? o.o)
blender_bunny@mac.com: (Yes)
Lithaladhwen: (If'n you like.)
Besyanteo: (Lessee.)
Besyanteo: (I feel like doing something a bit different...)
LovelyJester has entered the room.
Besyanteo: *It's still cold in Doma. Man it's cold. Does this damnable season never end?*
pd Rydia: ::the world may never know::
Besyanteo: *Still, people are outside for whatever reason. Maybe they got tired of boozing up on hot alcohols in the bars... Or maybe they even like it, the weirdos.*
Besyanteo: *But for whatever reason you're there, you are in Doma Park, where the ground is blanketted in crisp, fresh white and the lake is a smooth disc of ice*
Besyanteo: *There are still a few vendors out at this hour, and people on benches, bunded up in warm clothes.*
Besyanteo: *What are you doing?*
pd Rydia: ::well--!::
Besyanteo: *There is a nekojin on one of these benches!*
Lithaladhwen: *A young blonde girl in a big thick leather airship-bomber jacket is throwing snowballs with a couple of kids who seem to have built a fortification of the white and shiny stuff.*
Lithaladhwen: <Holly>
Besyanteo: *But he looks almost like a lion on two legs. ... Wearing a thick blue winter outfit*
Besyanteo: *His fur is a dark orange/brown, and his mane is black. Or is that just alot of unruly hair?*
Besyanteo: *He seems to be reading!*
pd Rydia: ::there's this woman, sulking near the frozen edge of the pond::
T3chn0Namagomi: (AFK for a sec. Getting food stuff)
Besyanteo: *He looks up*
Lithaladhwen: *a snowball lands dangerously close to the lady*
Lithaladhwen: *the girl covers her mouth with her hands* Sorry!
Besyanteo: *glances at Holly, then looks back to Rune*
Besyanteo: Something the matter? *deep, rich voice*
pd Rydia: ::she's dressed in very basic clothing, which looks to have some wear at that--
pd Rydia: ...!
pd Rydia: ::curses as she loses her balance and falls forward, landing hands and knees into the snow--this had not, apparently, been in her plans::
pd Rydia: (sorry, slow)
Besyanteo: (That's fine.)
Besyanteo: (o.o)
Lithaladhwen: Ah! *runs over to make sure she's okay* I'm sorry! Are you all right?
KnightsofSquare: ("Rune is not completely without aim, however." But Holly appears to be! lolololo)
pd Rydia: ::with some irritation:: Yes, yes-- ::more calmly:: Yes, thank you...
pd Rydia: ::rocks back onto her heels and brushes the snows off her knees::
Lithaladhwen: Sorry about that. I'm not actually sure which one of us hit you, but I guess we weren't really being careful.
pd Rydia: ::frowns to discover that her knees remain wet, despite the removal of excess snow::
pd Rydia: Ah, yes...it's okay. Really.
Lithaladhwen: *looks down as well* Oh, you're all snowy. Do you want me to fix that?
pd Rydia: Can't go to a snow-filled park and not expect snowballs.
pd Rydia: No, I'm good. Thank you.
Lithaladhwen: *head tilt* All right. But it wouldn't be any trouble at all, and it is kind of our fault.
Lithaladhwen: Sorry. I forgot to introduce myself! My name is Holly.
LovelyJester: (Bwee?)
pd Rydia: (hi Lex!)
Besyanteo: (Heya)
Besyanteo: *watches idly from where he's sitting*
Arch mage144 has entered the room.
Arch mage144 has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: (Hey Lex!)
pd Rydia: Rune. ::stands up to her full, not inconsiderable height, and holds her hand out to Holly::
Besyanteo: (That was a short visit from Brian.)
Lithaladhwen: *Holly is little. She's five feet tall, which means to Dia that she's even shorter than I am. She shakes Rune's hand*
Lithaladhwen: Nice to meet you!
Lithaladhwen: (Technically she's verging on 5'1" or 2", but still. Holy God little girl.)
Lithaladhwen: (Rune has... like... eight inches on her?)
pd Rydia: ::feels much better for having a good 8 inches over Holly--which is pretty petty, considering the age difference and all--but it helps Rune recover her good mood and put on a more pleasant face::
pd Rydia: (y :0)
pd Rydia: A pleasure.
MischiefMink has entered the room.
MischiefMink: awuh?
pd Rydia: (rp?)
Lithaladhwen: (Hey Beth.)
Lithaladhwen: I don't think I've seen you around. Do you live here?
MischiefMink: (Ah)
MischiefMink: (I'll just lurk for now then)
pd Rydia: Mm, ah. I've recently moved here. I grew up in Baron.
Lithaladhwen: Oh! Wonderful. I've been there once. It was a lovely place. Have you been there recently?
Lithaladhwen: IM: I wonder what her stance is on King Trevor. Poor guy. He sounds like a nice man.
Besyanteo: (Reminds me: )
Besyanteo: (Trevor has recently been reported as not having shown for his offered "fair trial". No one's sure where he is anymore.)
Besyanteo: (I need to post this...)
Lithaladhwen: (Okay! Holly would find this information interesting. Many thanks!)
Besyanteo: (Sure)
pd Rydia: Yes, actually, I just came back a little while ago.
pd Rydia: I spent some considerable time visiting some old haunts of mine.
Lithaladhwen: *attentive head tilt* And how did that go?
pd Rydia: Judicially.
Besyanteo: (Heh. Interesting reply.)
Lithaladhwen: *shrugs* Well, you're here now. That's a sign it couldn't have gone too badly. What brings you back here?
pd Rydia: ::light sigh:: I'm tired of Baron.
Lithaladhwen: I get that way when I stay in one place to long. I think even Doma is starting to get old.
Lithaladhwen: So I kind of understand.
PapatymisonN: ... *his ears twitch*
PapatymisonN: *the redheaded gunner's ears feel like they're ... burning.*
pd Rydia: ::nods::
pd Rydia: You get to travel a lot?
Lithaladhwen: *nods enthusiastically* Yes.
Lithaladhwen: I wander around, listening to stories and performing when I can. It's kind of nice.
Lithaladhwen: What do you do?
PapatymisonN: *he pulls his long black leather duster closer for warmth, and travels through the square...*
pd Rydia: ::blinks::
PapatymisonN: ... *then he sees it. That shock of hair that... wow. Smelled REALLY good... *
PapatymisonN: *it's HER*
pd Rydia: Whatever's legal.
pd Rydia: Or not illegal.
PapatymisonN: *with a flash of feet, he's soon behind her... And... he's rendered mute.*
Lithaladhwen: *smiles* Sounds like a---
PapatymisonN: o.o
Lithaladhwen: IM: There's a man behind her.
Lithaladhwen: Uh.... uh.. ma'am?
pd Rydia: Yeah?
Lithaladhwen: *little fingerpoint to Jansen*
pd Rydia: ...?
Lithaladhwen: Behind you?
PapatymisonN: o.o
pd Rydia: ::turns around:: ...oh, hi Jansen.
PapatymisonN: ... you're REALLY good at disappearing, love. o_o
PapatymisonN: *unable to stand it, gives her a huge hug*
Lithaladhwen: *takes a few steps back*
PapatymisonN: >.< I'm gonna need your address.
Lithaladhwen: ^_^ IM: Oh, private moment. Give space, give space.
pd Rydia: ::wince::
PapatymisonN: I know, I know.
pd Rydia: I don't have an address.
PapatymisonN: *releases her*
pd Rydia: I'm staying at the Ivory Horn right now, though.
PapatymisonN: ... I can buy you a house.
PapatymisonN: They're cheap on the south side. o.o
Lithaladhwen: *covers her mouth with her hands* IM: Oh, my gosh.
pd Rydia: ::punches Jansen in the shoulder::
pd Rydia: Jackass!
PapatymisonN: >.o Ow.
pd Rydia: If I want a place to live I'll just mooch off you.
PapatymisonN: ... *kind of smirks* OK.
pd Rydia: You owe me, anyway.
PapatymisonN: Yeah... saved my ass, you did.
pd Rydia: ...I was talking about Baron.
PapatymisonN: ... oh.
PapatymisonN: ... uh... what say I just owe you the damned moon and let me work it off? o.o
pd Rydia: I was going to ask around there for where you were, but I kind of got jailed.
pd Rydia: What the hell would I do with the moon?
pd Rydia: But if that means you're eternally in my debt, okay.
PapatymisonN: Just... stay where I can see you.
PapatymisonN: You're harder to track than a scrap of paper in an updraft.
pd Rydia: Sorry, Baron doesn't like deserters. ::shrugs::
pd Rydia: You know, I was having a conversation. You interrupted me.
pd Rydia: ::turns back to Holly::
Lithaladhwen: *is still standing covering her mouth trying to look inconspicuous*
PapatymisonN: ... oh.
Lithaladhwen: Um, it's okay, really!
PapatymisonN: Sorry. *extends hand*
Lithaladhwen: You guys seem busy.
PapatymisonN: Jansen Cade.
pd Rydia: It's okay. This is Jansen, Holly.
Lithaladhwen: ...*takes his hand* Holly. Hi. ^_^
PapatymisonN: *shake!* ^_^
Lithaladhwen: Anyway, um. Do you guys... I mean... I don't want to--- um.
Lithaladhwen: Heh. *rubs the back of her jacket-hood awkwardly* ^^;
pd Rydia: You were talking about travel...aren't you kind of young for traveling around? Or are you a mage?
PapatymisonN: ... uh...
Lithaladhwen: Oh, I'm a mage. I do some minor things. Illusion and a little telepathy and some minor things for my allies.
Lithaladhwen: *The girl, for the record, is carrying a large razor-whip coiled on the back of her belt. Oddly vicious weapon for...well, for Holly.*
PapatymisonN: ... neat.
pd Rydia: ::rather pleased with Jansen's state of discomfort::
pd Rydia: You travel in a group, then?
Lithaladhwen: I travel with my friend, Xevan.
Lithaladhwen: How about you?
PapatymisonN: *fighting off every urge to haul Rune over his shoulder and head for that Ivory Horn suite... or one of his vacant homes... or A vacant home...*
pd Rydia: Well, I've been alone mostly for the last so often. Incarceration tends to cut off ties.
Lithaladhwen: Aw, yeah. *nods*
Lithaladhwen: What happened?
T3chn0Namagomi: *And meanwhile, walking onto the scene is someone wearing...a Mage Corps uniform. 5'5" tall, short-cut blonde hair, brown eyes, thinnish build. Strangely enough, she doesn't seem to be particularly bothered by the cold*
PapatymisonN: Everyone back home is a bastard.
pd Rydia: ::jerks a thumb at Jansen:: Like him. Lost him for a while. I'm surprised he hasn't got himself killed without me.
pd Rydia: And, nothing too special.
PapatymisonN: You are not leaving my SIGHT again...
pd Rydia: I was a Baronian dragoon for a while, but got tired of that.
pd Rydia: So I left.
PapatymisonN: ^_^ Or you'll poof again.
T3chn0Namagomi: *stops and watches*
pd Rydia: They weren't too pleased about that, so when I went back, they tossed me into a cell for a while. Teach me a lesson or something.
pd Rydia: ...they took my armor. ::frowns::
Lithaladhwen: Wow. That's ridiculous.
PapatymisonN: Want better stuff? I know a guy.
PapatymisonN: Won't be the same, but it'll deflect arrows and be lighter for the trouble...
Lithaladhwen: *notes the young lady standing nearby and lifts a hand in a wave*
Lithaladhwen: IM: She looks like one of Hakaril's!
PapatymisonN: ... Oh. Hey.
T3chn0Namagomi: ...Huh? What're you waving at me for?
Lithaladhwen: You're here.
Lithaladhwen: I thought I'd at least say hello.
pd Rydia: IM: Another Doman.
T3chn0Namagomi: Uh...yeah. Hello, or something.
PapatymisonN: IM: ... I need to get this woman in a booth.
Lithaladhwen: Hello is correct. My name is Holly. What's yours?
T3chn0Namagomi: Adrienne Quinze, Mage Corps Cadet.
Lithaladhwen: Awesome! I thought so. You must be really talented.
pd Rydia: Hello, stranger. Welcome to our friendly little chat group.
pd Rydia: ::smiles::
PapatymisonN: ... Anyone up for drinks?
PapatymisonN: On me.
T3chn0Namagomi: Well, not so much as Hakaril, but I'd like to think I'm far superior to that Delco moron.
PapatymisonN: Doman tradition, I hear.
Lithaladhwen: Hakaril's a good guy. And yes! We should go get something to drink. It's cold out here. A little amaretto will help, I think.
PapatymisonN: Good. You're at the Ivory Horn, right, Rune?
pd Rydia: I'm thirsty!
pd Rydia: I am.
PapatymisonN: *enjoyed that. Saying her name, that is...*
PapatymisonN: Let's go, then...
PapatymisonN: *leads the parade...*
T3chn0Namagomi: IM: Thankfully, there aren't any idiotic guys staring at my chest or harassing me this time.
Lithaladhwen: (Holly will not be doing that, and Jansen is distracted.)
pd Rydia: (if Rune knew it would bother her...)
pd Rydia: (nah, probably not)
pd Rydia: ::parade!::
pd Rydia: ::to the IH!::
Lithaladhwen: (Holy shit! Holly is eighteen now. Second of Reshtara.)
T3chn0Namagomi: *walks there, or something*
PapatymisonN: *if his eyes aren't on his destination, they're on her...*
PapatymisonN: *holds the door open* Ladies.
Lithaladhwen: IM: Oh, look how cute he is. ^_^
Lithaladhwen: *goes in* Thank you, Jansen.
PapatymisonN: *nods*
pd Rydia: ::meanders at group's end, until the IH is near, wherein she manages to--almost beat Jansen to the door::
pd Rydia: IM: ...ass!
T3chn0Namagomi: I can open my own fucking door, you know. *walking in*
pd Rydia: ::gives Jansen a sulky look::
pd Rydia: Congratulations.
PapatymisonN: ... IM: bloody chivalry's dead, an' we still have blinkin' KNIGHTS...
PapatymisonN: *enters last*
pd Rydia: ::falls behind:: So, where did you head to after Valth?
PapatymisonN: Kicked around Doma, mostly. Got bloody rich, actually. Real estate.
Lithaladhwen: *to Adrienne* So how did you get into the Mage Corps? You look like you're my age.
T3chn0Namagomi: I can explain.
PapatymisonN: ... uh, girls? *to Adrienne and Holly* I just need to talk to Rune alone for a second. Can you find us all a table?
Lithaladhwen: Absolutely!
MischiefMink has left the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: Originally, I guess given my natural talent, I was sent to a magic school, predictably. Could've been Gunnir, but instead, it was this one that had this one annoying-ass bastard of an instructor named Edwin Delco.
PapatymisonN: Thanks. *leads Rune to a nearby table...*
Lithaladhwen: *grabs a big booth and leaves a side open for Rune and Jansen*
Lithaladhwen: *nods to Adrienne*
T3chn0Namagomi: *following Holly*
pd Rydia: ::raises eyebrow, makes a show of following slowly::
PapatymisonN: *sits her down at a booth*
T3chn0Namagomi: Didn't try to teach any of the actually useful shit in regards to using it; you live on the streets, the first thing you want to know what to do is protect yourself, right?
Lithaladhwen: Yeah.
PapatymisonN: ...
pd Rydia: ...?
T3chn0Namagomi: <_< He thought it would be a better idea to teach "showy" magic, stuff that might be good for compensating for a small penis on a date, but not much else in regards to use.
pd Rydia: It was pretty inconvenient that you weren't in Baron, you know.
T3chn0Namagomi: To boot, he would not stop staring at my chest. >.<
pd Rydia: I think I mentioned that.
Lithaladhwen: *laugh* I do a lot of illusion and *fingerquote* showy magic... but I'm a performer. It's different for me; I need to know it.
PapatymisonN: ... then let's... not be apart anymore.
Lithaladhwen: And the staring... I, uh... I think Xevan would probably do something awful if that were me. *sweatdrop*
T3chn0Namagomi: Yeah. Anyway...continuing...
T3chn0Namagomi: IM: Note to self, ask about this "Xevan" guy later
PapatymisonN: Cuz, well... I hate myself when you're not around and you make me feel human and good and if you left again, I may just have to cast myself off a cliff because death would be preferable to separation from you.
pd Rydia: I'm not going to Baron again.
pd Rydia: Don't even ask about Valth.
CGNakibe has left the room.
pd Rydia: ...
T3chn0Namagomi: I had to do some independent and unofficial research to learn what I do know. However, I also just skipped class.
Lithaladhwen: *nods*
pd Rydia: You don't have to be dramatic.
PapatymisonN: ... yeah. <.<
PapatymisonN: I know.
PapatymisonN: Jus'... *holds her face, looks in her eyes*
PapatymisonN: Don't want you to go.
T3chn0Namagomi: Rather than let me out, he decided to throw me in as one of the acts in some adver-exhibition show. With tricks like conjuring tables and rabbits. Stuff that you wouldn't have any real USE for outside of showing off;
T3chn0Namagomi: ...Conjuration's not my strong suit anyway
pd Rydia: Fine! Fine! Just stop that!
Lithaladhwen: Uh huh. Yeah, you don't strike me as a performer. ^^;
PapatymisonN: ..
PapatymisonN: *does* Right. <.<
T3chn0Namagomi: I mean...*focuses...and a baguette poofs into existence!* I can do that, but just about anyone can poof up some bread with training.
PapatymisonN: *face burns...* IM: Well, that was bloody awful...
Lithaladhwen: *laughs and claps* Well, it's practical! I heard at Gunnir you need at least that much.
Lithaladhwen: And at Gunnir they supposedly...
Lithaladhwen: ...can feed you anything. But no one has time.
Lithaladhwen: So they have this mage sitting in the basement conjuring food for only about half the students.
T3chn0Namagomi: Yeee...
T3chn0Namagomi: Continuing...
Lithaladhwen: *nods*
pd Rydia: ::frowns furiously:: You certainly know how to make me uncomfortable.
pd Rydia: Don't do that kind of stuff in public. It's embarrassing.
Lithaladhwen: IM: She's kind of self-centered, but it also means I can get good stories out of her. Which really makes my job easier! I'm sure she's nice enough.
PapatymisonN: ... sorry.
pd Rydia: (Rune: I might get cooties!)
Lithaladhwen: IM: She just hasn't known many people who treated her nicely, I bet.
pd Rydia: ...sorry.
PapatymisonN: I... just really missed you, was all.
pd Rydia: Well I went to look for you and got jailed, so there.
pd Rydia: ::crosses arms::
T3chn0Namagomi: So, I decided to get back at him by saying "fuck off" to the program, and doing my own, personal demonstration. With some basic explanations of the ways that attack magic could work, complete with me using my magic
PapatymisonN: ... thanks.
T3chn0Namagomi: for such exhibitions.
Lithaladhwen: *chuckles*
pd Rydia: You're welcome
T3chn0Namagomi: You know, "Not getting hit 101, know your areas."
pd Rydia: ::sighs and visibly relaxes a bit::
Lithaladhwen: Yeah. Pretty basic stuff.
T3chn0Namagomi: Obviously, shocked the hell out of that Delco bastard, but there was this really annoying heckler in the audience. At least, I thought he was just some heckler.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, man.
T3chn0Namagomi: <_< Turns out he was Hakaril.
pd Rydia: After Valth I went looking to accumulate some money for a trip to Nekonia. I've heard they have a good library there.
Besyanteo: (So! Whose who and where? I headed off for food.)
Lithaladhwen: Yeah. That sounds like him.
T3chn0Namagomi: Weird stuff happened, and it eventually led to him inviting me for some test to join the Mage Corps
T3chn0Namagomi: (Adrienne Quinze, Ivory Horn)
Besyanteo: (New character?)
Lithaladhwen: (Holly. Same.)
pd Rydia: I changed my mind and wound up in Baron instead.
T3chn0Namagomi: (Seldom-used, more like. Newer, anyway.)
pd Rydia: (Rune)
PapatymisonN: *nod*
Besyanteo: *In that case! The leonine fellow is still reading on the bench*
pd Rydia: :: (Ivory Horn ^_^;; )
PapatymisonN: Glad you could make it. Not going home for all the gil in Gaera.
Besyanteo: (... How did I miss that part? x_x)
T3chn0Namagomi: Then Hakaril kicked his ass in a magic duel. *snickering*
pd Rydia: Baron's kinda a shitty place. It's not even my home, anyway. ::shrug::
Lithaladhwen: Awesome. Hakaril's a great guy. I was actually drinking with him a few weeks ago. Haven't seen him since.
Lithaladhwen: I think he headed back to Gunnir to do his Duty to His Alma Mater.
PapatymisonN: Well, there you go.
T3chn0Namagomi: Er, whatever an Alma Mater is.
PapatymisonN: Anyways, let's go find those girls again. No reason to be antisocial, mm?
T3chn0Namagomi: Anyway, who's that Xevan guy you mentioned earlier?
Lithaladhwen: Oh, he's my friend. He travels with me. I think he's actually researching something at the moment, so I headed out to go find something to do.
T3chn0Namagomi: I see. He a performer too or something?
pd Rydia: ::nods and does just that, so promptly!::
pd Rydia: ::pulls a seat between Holly and Mage Corps girl!::
pd Rydia: I'm back.
pd Rydia: Sorry for the absence.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, no. He's a wizard. And a jeweler from what I understand.
pd Rydia: Have I missed much?
Lithaladhwen: Hey guys! No, just talking.
PapatymisonN: *pulls in*
T3chn0Namagomi: What she said.
pd Rydia: ::nods
PapatymisonN: Nothing too feminine that I can't be here, right?
Lithaladhwen: We were talking about how Adrienne got into the Mage Corps, and about the man I travel with.
pd Rydia: Is that a request?
PapatymisonN: Hope not...
pd Rydia: Ah.
pd Rydia: Mage Corps? Doman thing?
Lithaladhwen: Adrienne? That's your story, not mine. ^_^
T3chn0Namagomi: Yeah. Selected by General Silvar personally. *_*
Besyanteo: *And.. Hey, it's that guy again! He comes in from the cold, and goes to get a hot drink*
Lithaladhwen: *waves to the guy from the park*
pd Rydia: ::looks up and notes the newcomer! He's familiar::
Lithaladhwen: IM: I bet he was cold. He was out there longer than I was.
pd Rydia: You must be good.
Besyanteo: *waves abck when waved to!*
PapatymisonN: ... tell me something...
T3chn0Namagomi: Yeah, I am. Again, not as much as Hakaril, but better than the morons who seem to think it would be okay to stare at my chest for however long.
Besyanteo: *And he seems to take it as an invite to come over as well. Atleast for a minute, since it was Holly, who looks... pretty young*
PapatymisonN: Silvar as big a blowhard as I've heard he is?
Besyanteo: Mind if I sit in? New in town, don't really know anyone...
Lithaladhwen: Oh, he's a nice guy. Talks a lot.
PapatymisonN: IM: stop going on about your bloody chest. It's good, but it's not THAT good...
Lithaladhwen: *waves the new guy over*
Besyanteo: *he sits!*
T3chn0Namagomi: Blowhard?! Are you insane? He's obviously much superior to any of us.
Besyanteo: (... no wait. That's Holly ag- ... fuck it.)
Besyanteo: (He sits.)
pd Rydia: ::nods to new guy::
PapatymisonN: ... I'll get you the land to build the bloody temple, then. *smirk*
Lithaladhwen: (Oh my God. Hakaril has a fangirl.)
T3chn0Namagomi: (XD)
Lithaladhwen: (Kai's law is invoked.)
Besyanteo: (It was bound to happen eventually.)
pd Rydia: Well, he must be good at something. He does have an official fanclub, after all.
Lithaladhwen: (Shakti's correlary is coming.)
Besyanteo: *And he takes a deep pull from his tankard... Smells like apples*
pd Rydia: ::sips at a drink. I assume she's got one by now::
Lithaladhwen: (One or two more, I swear.)
T3chn0Namagomi: I do admit, from what I do know of him, I have a different specialty from him as far as magic goes.
Besyanteo: *And then he sits back and relaxes some*
pd Rydia: What manner of magic?
PapatymisonN: IM: Ten gil says it's a new kind that no one's heard of before.
Lithaladhwen: He does a lot of astral magic, holy magic, a little enchanting, uhm. He does a lot.
PapatymisonN: IM: I've got a two-to-one shot on this.
pd Rydia: IM: Wonder if I've ever heard of it?
Lithaladhwen: What are you into, Adrienne?
pd Rydia: IM: This IS Doma, after all...
Besyanteo: (*Makes a mage who uses nothing but Fire and Shadow magic, with an awesome personality, jsut to spite Chuck*)
pd Rydia: (:0)
T3chn0Namagomi: Me? Projection, reinforcement, admixture, and synergization of basic elemental effects into superior-for-battle uses, either through synergistic combination or straight-up application of energy.
PapatymisonN: (... Thank you! ^_^ )
pd Rydia: ...
PapatymisonN: ... layman's terms...?
pd Rydia: ::takes a pull::
Besyanteo: ...
Besyanteo: IM: What? o_o
pd Rydia: Wind and healing.
T3chn0Namagomi: (XD She can pull the magic jargon)
Lithaladhwen: That's great. Mixing elements can be tricky, but it's always interesting to see.
PapatymisonN: Thank you. That was easy enough.
T3chn0Namagomi: Basic elemental stuff. Fire, ice, air, electric, earth.
T3chn0Namagomi: No healing. <_<;
pd Rydia: No. Me.
Besyanteo: (Also: Hee. Rune and Shada should meet.)
KnightsofSquare: (heal plz)
pd Rydia: I do wind and healing.
pd Rydia: I wasn't attempting to translate.
T3chn0Namagomi: Oh. Right. Gotcha.
PapatymisonN: Oh.
PapatymisonN: Though feel free to.
Lithaladhwen: Illusion, benediction and a bit of telepathy that I really don't need as often as you might think. Mostly I just perform.
PapatymisonN: When it comes to this stuff, I'm illiterate.
PapatymisonN: Don' have a mageical bone in my body.
Arch mage144 has entered the room.
PapatymisonN: *and, actually, anyone can tell he's... mistaken*
PapatymisonN: *he HAS magical potential, he's just not using it*
Lithaladhwen: You sure?
T3chn0Namagomi: Bullshit.
PapatymisonN: ... yeah... o.o
pd Rydia: ::shrugs:: Only the basics for me, and military speak.
T3chn0Namagomi: You've got a sufficiently powerful aura to utilize magical projection.
pd Rydia: ::doesn't know how to check for that stuff!::
Besyanteo: ... *sips*
PapatymisonN: ... bullshit.
pd Rydia: ...?
PapatymisonN: I do not...
Besyanteo: Does that make me the only non-mage here?
Lithaladhwen: I'd go with Adrienne on that one. She's likely better at checking that than I am.
PapatymisonN: No.
Besyanteo: I feel so plain. *little smile*
Lithaladhwen: *to the new fellow* Well, it's not as important as all that.
pd Rydia: You don't look so plain.
PapatymisonN: I ain't no bloody mage, and I don't plan on goin' to school with a bunch of pimply faced teens anytime soon...
pd Rydia: You from Nekonia?
Besyanteo: Heh. A joke anyway. ... And yes.
Besyanteo: My name is Yoshi.
Lithaladhwen: *to Jansen* I didn't go to a magic school. My father taught me.
pd Rydia: (YOSHI! ::beep boop!:: )
Besyanteo: (Heh.)
Lithaladhwen: He and his family.
Besyanteo: (I always liked the name.)
pd Rydia: ::nods:: Haven't gotten there yet. Was headed there once, to check out some books.
Besyanteo: (and it IS japanese, so it fits Nekonia. =D)
pd Rydia: ::smacks Jansen::
PapatymisonN: ... eh. Too old to learn now anyw- OW!
PapatymisonN: What was that for? o.o
T3chn0Namagomi: e.e *glare*
Besyanteo: Books? Rea- *blinks*
pd Rydia: You just insulted our tablemates.
pd Rydia: Bad drinking manners.
PapatymisonN: Oh.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, no! It's okay! I didn't take it that way.
PapatymisonN: Sorry.
Lithaladhwen: It's okay, really!
Besyanteo: (I like Rune already. ^^)
PapatymisonN: IM: ... Man, do I want to fuck her. o.o
T3chn0Namagomi: Next time something like that happens, this gets cracked over your head. Repeatedly. *motioning to the rather stale-looking magically-summoned baguette*
Lithaladhwen: (It is going to be Rune's job to keep Jansen happily whipped for the rest of his life. You realize this, Dia.)
pd Rydia: I dunno. In Baron's Ebony Hoof, the only way to properly apologize was to sing a song.
pd Rydia: About how sorry you were
pd Rydia: In someone else's shirt.
Besyanteo: ...
Lithaladhwen: ....um. It's really okay.
Besyanteo: In someone else's shirt.
PapatymisonN: ...
Besyanteo: o_o
pd Rydia: or dancing on the bartop
pd Rydia: depending
PapatymisonN: ... sorry.
PapatymisonN: *looks at Rune* I'm done.
KnightsofSquare: (Is Yoshi Nekonian?)
Besyanteo: (He is. Looks like a lion! But it could just be a case of crazy hair)
pd Rydia: or standing in the toilet.
pd Rydia: That was a favorite.
Besyanteo: (He's also 6'8", and covered in coats and thick pants)
Besyanteo: (IF his hands are any indication, he's a short fur!)
Lithaladhwen: Um. I'm going to go get my drink. And when I come back, we'll all just agree that Jansen is sorry and will be nice from now on.
pd Rydia: Or while speaking like you have a Doman accent...but, well...
Lithaladhwen: That way we all keep our shirts where we last put them.
PapatymisonN: .... works for me.
Besyanteo: Hm. ... In Nekonia,
pd Rydia: Hm?
Besyanteo: we simply buy the offended party and his guests a round of drinks.
PapatymisonN: Everything's on me anyways.
Besyanteo: ... Or duel to the death. Depending.
Besyanteo: I think this is a round of drinks situation.
pd Rydia: Well, that's what's done in Baron, too. Minus the dueling part.
pd Rydia: The lies sounded more amusing.
Lithaladhwen: *goes to grab something for herself* Adrienne? Do you want anything?
Besyanteo: *he jsut smiles*
T3chn0Namagomi: Eh, whatever. Some sort of wine.
Besyanteo: *finishes his cider!*
Lithaladhwen: Okay!
PapatymisonN: *isn't drinking!*
Lithaladhwen: *to the bar and ordering and things*
Arch mage144: (Oh dear. At least Adrienne isn't Fal. She's not going to stumble home wasted.)
pd Rydia: ::is drinking!::
Besyanteo: (I like Adrienne. She feels like mild mannered nerd to me, so far. I like that.)
pd Rydia: (BY DAY, A MILD MANNERED NERD)
pd Rydia: (BY NIGHT---!)
Besyanteo: (A LARPer)
pd Rydia: (XD)
Besyanteo: (*flees*)
blender_bunny@mac.com: (OH SNAP)
Arch mage144: (Sounds like Patrick, a DF character I ran)
Lithaladhwen: (Adrienne isn't precisely. She's got more Sass than anyone around the table except maybe Rune.)
blender_bunny@mac.com: (BUT HE WAS A LARPING GOD!)
Besyanteo: So. *looks around the table*
Arch mage144: (I'm tempted to invoke Kai's law and have Hakaril show up)
pd Rydia: Hm?
Besyanteo: What do the Domans too to entertain themselves on cold nights?
T3chn0Namagomi: (XD)
Besyanteo: (... Ashley?)
PapatymisonN: .... sex.
Besyanteo: (You called it.)
Arch mage144: (Because my Starcraft people seem preoccupied)
T3chn0Namagomi: e.e No.
Besyanteo: ...
T3chn0Namagomi: *CRACK!*
Besyanteo: >_>;
PapatymisonN: You should start, the- o.o
Besyanteo: *Looks uncomfortable*
T3chn0Namagomi: *THERE goes the baguette!*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Right over Jansen's head*
pd Rydia: Um...!
Besyanteo: ...
Besyanteo: o_o;
Besyanteo: I...
Besyanteo: don't think that was necesary.
Besyanteo: IM: But convenient.
pd Rydia: Well, Doma is always very weird and full of fighting and violence. That's what I've noticed. ;;>.>
pd Rydia: And drinking.
KnightsofSquare: *it is caught by a fellow approaching from behind him!*
KnightsofSquare: *And by "caught" I mean "in his face"*
T3chn0Namagomi: *That wasn't a throw*
Lithaladhwen: *returns with a nice smooth pinot noir for Adrienne, and a low glass of amaretto for herself*
Besyanteo: *looks to the new guy!*
T3chn0Namagomi: *That was a SMASH*
KnightsofSquare: (ricochet)
T3chn0Namagomi: (Ah)
Lithaladhwen: Are you guys creating chaos already? ^_^
T3chn0Namagomi: e.e He started it.
PapatymisonN: *content to just sit back, kinda... y'know... stare at Rune....*
PapatymisonN: Don't overreact, love.
PapatymisonN: Just a joke.
pd Rydia: ;;>.> ::hides her face in her cup::
pd Rydia: What! Ass!
pd Rydia: ::smack!::
Besyanteo: >_o
KnightsofSquare: *he's a nekonian, in fairly simple traveling clothes. He has calico markings, most notably a light brownish patch over his right eye, while the rest of his face is mostly black*
pd Rydia: ::powersulk::
Lithaladhwen: Guys.... *chuckles* come on, now.
T3chn0Namagomi: (Who got smacked?)
PapatymisonN: ...
KnightsofSquare: *he is also carrying an unfinished plate of what appears to be some form of steak*
Besyanteo: IM: ... don'trecognizemyfamilypleaaaase...
Lithaladhwen: (Jansen. Who else?)
T3chn0Namagomi: (XD)
PapatymisonN: You CAN be pleased, right?
PapatymisonN: There are things that I can do that would make you happy?
PapatymisonN: ... that DON'T involve my utter humiliation?
KnightsofSquare: Ah, miss, I believe you dropped something. Over this gentleman's head. *big smile*
pd Rydia: IM: Ryuugami! Even the kid is laughing at me!
Arch mage144: *At the present time, the door to the inn swings open and a familiar figure dressed in his trademark black coat and red hat wanders in, hat pulled down over his face to a great extent*
T3chn0Namagomi: Heh. Actually, it's more like his head's one of the few things harder than this bread after a while
T3chn0Namagomi: Perfect breaking tool, don't you think?
PapatymisonN: ... *grumble...*
pd Rydia: No, leave me alone, I'm not talking to you right now.
pd Rydia: ::grumble~::
KnightsofSquare: *nods sagely* I always find it wise to make good use of whatever tools are available
KnightsofSquare: I was wondering if I might join you for a bit. You see, I have a nasty habit of listening too much, so I've overheard a good deal of your conversation...
PapatymisonN: IM: Well, that's just bloody perfect.
Besyanteo: *keeps quiet!*
KnightsofSquare: ...and I would like to make it up to you by talking too much. Thus restoring balance to the cosmos
pd Rydia: IM: Oh Ryuugami! Not the cat, too!
Arch mage144: *He wanders over to the bar, makes some sort of confusing but apparently understood hand motions, and procures for himself a tall glass of iced green tea*
T3chn0Namagomi: o.o; Errr...
Lithaladhwen: ....Hakaril! *glomp*
T3chn0Namagomi: <_<
T3chn0Namagomi: OH MY GODS IT'S HIM!
Arch mage144: *The General idly stirs at the tea with a spoon and...is glomped by a teenage bard*
pd Rydia: ...
pd Rydia: o.o
PapatymisonN: ... oh brother...
pd Rydia: <.< Jealous?
Arch mage144: *Hakaril, struck by the sudden weight of the girl who has thrown herself against him as he sits on a barstool, is shoved against the bar itself, nearly spilling his tea in the process; his hat practically falls off his head*
Lithaladhwen: *lets him go* Hey! I thought you had left already.
PapatymisonN: No.
Besyanteo: ... *watches all this curiously*
PapatymisonN: It's... just so silly... o.o
Arch mage144: *He shakes off whatever mood appears to be affecting him* What? Shhh! I'm not supposed to be here!
Lithaladhwen: *claps both hands over her mouth* Okay.
T3chn0Namagomi: *_* *...fangirl stare...*
Arch mage144: Great Lord Agnostic, who knew teaching could be so hard? Was I such an ungrateful prat when I was a studnet?
Arch mage144: *he appears to be thinking, putting his hand on his chin*
Arch mage144: Oh, yeah. I guess I was. Fuck.
Lithaladhwen: *head tilt* What are you teaching?
Arch mage144: Applied Magical Theory, mostly. Archmagus Wray is the primary instructor of astral magic, and he's much better than I am at it, so it's only natural that he teach it instead.
pd Rydia: >.> ::eyes the nekojin bard warily, to see who he appears to be paying attention to::
KnightsofSquare: *is watching the conversation between Hakaril and Holly with some amusement*
Lithaladhwen: *nod* That's fair. Well, if you need any help, I can always come by. I can leave Xevan in the library. I'm sure that'd keep him busy.
Besyanteo: *Is as well! ... with less amsuement, likely*
Besyanteo: *but still some*
Arch mage144: Xevan? That's your drow friend, right?
Lithaladhwen: *nod*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Seems to have made her way out* Hakaril!
Arch mage144: Oh, yeah. Well, if you really want to come to Gunn...
pd Rydia: ::takes the opportunity to move her seat closer to Jansen:: I don't smile. Get used to it.
pd Rydia: ::glares at Jansen::
Arch mage144: ...*quirks an eyebrow and adjusts his hat* Ahem. Who are...oh, right! Adrienne, if my memory still functions.
PapatymisonN: Fine by me.
pd Rydia: Good.
KnightsofSquare: IM: Ah, what a night...lovers reunited, a mysterious stranger, a rising star meets her idol...
pd Rydia: If you embarrass me, I'm going to be unhappy. If I'm unhappy, I normally react appropriately.
pd Rydia: By hitting. Or yelling.
T3chn0Namagomi: That's right. *_*
pd Rydia: Totally appropriate.
PapatymisonN: I'm going to try and make you happy.
Besyanteo: IM: And she claims Doma is violent.
Arch mage144: ...why are you staring at me that way?
PapatymisonN: Short of wearing women's clothing and dancing around.
pd Rydia: ::snickers::
PapatymisonN: ... without alcohol in my system.
Besyanteo: (Adrienne: AHVE MY BEBBIES!)
KnightsofSquare has left the room.
Besyanteo: (complete with misspellings)
KnightsofSquare has entered the room.
Besyanteo: (WB)
KnightsofSquare: (thanks :D)
T3chn0Namagomi: Err...o.o;
pd Rydia: (np!)
T3chn0Namagomi: Eeeheheh...no reason. ^_^;
Lithaladhwen: Oh, we were just talking about you. I asked her how she ended up in the Mage Corps, and we just kind of... got to talking.
Lithaladhwen: But how are your classes?
Besyanteo: (Christine LAvin~)
Arch mage144: Ah, yes. That's right. I recruited her into the Mage Corps after a witnessing a demonstration of her magical power.
pd Rydia: ::flips her empty mug over and over, her gaze fixed on it::
PapatymisonN: Refresh?
Arch mage144: My classes are...well, they're interesting. It's a very strange experience, teaching.
KnightsofSquare: *turns to his countryman* So, what brings you to the frigid north?
Arch mage144: I told my students that I would reward inventiveness, but I've had little luck with them so far.
Besyanteo: Eh? *he pratically starts*
Arch mage144: I suppose I will have to risk everything on the final examination in some sort of vague attempt to see who's actually worth their weight in mana.
Besyanteo: Ah... Just wandering about, really. Wanderlust. ...
pd Rydia: You don't need to try so hard. I make myself happy.
Besyanteo: IM: ... That sounded ridiculous.
Lithaladhwen: Hm. I'm trying to think if I can help at all. I mean, it's possible they're having a hard time because... well...
PapatymisonN: So just let me know how to maintain that.
Lithaladhwen: You can be a little intimidating, maybe.
pd Rydia: Finding you was part of that, and by Ryuugami's tail, don't you ever make me say that again.
T3chn0Namagomi: IM: Hah! I bet I'm better than all of them.
PapatymisonN: Never again.
Arch mage144: Hm. You think?
KnightsofSquare: Ah, I know the feeling. *extends his hand* My true name is a secret, for various superstitious reasons, but around here people call me Wright.
pd Rydia: If I want you to do something, I'll ask. ::shrugs::
KnightsofSquare: *...did he wink when he said his name was a secret?*
Besyanteo: IM: Now why the hell didn't I think of that?
pd Rydia: ::sets mug upside down on the table, holds hands off to either side::
Lithaladhwen: I think so. I mean, it doesn't bother me because I know you. But I bet you'd take up half the room when you're teaching.
Lithaladhwen: Maybe if I come stop by they'll be less freaked out by me.
Besyanteo: ... Yoshi. *shakes that hand* IM: A bit late to contradict myself in front of all these people.
Arch mage144: (Mike's character: I manage a small city, which is ideally intended to represent a real city. A SimCity, if you will.)
pd Rydia: (XD)
Besyanteo: (Ha!)
Arch mage144: Yeah, but...
Arch mage144: What are you going to do to help me teach? Be my lovely assistant? *chuckles*
Lithaladhwen: *laugh*
Besyanteo: (Holly: Watch me pull an astral flow out of my h- *consumed by arcane energy*)
pd Rydia: ::irritatedly:: ...you know I don't talk much to people. Not talk talking.
Besyanteo: (Hak: Gods dammit, that's the third time today!)
Lithaladhwen: (I think we need another Holly!)
pd Rydia: You're making me do so much work.
PapatymisonN: Sorry.
Besyanteo: Nice to meet you.
PapatymisonN: Feel free to say nothing.
pd Rydia: First I clear you of murder! Then I serve jail time!
KnightsofSquare: Good to meet you as well. I don't run into too many of us up here, and it's always good to be reminded of home.
pd Rydia: Yeah right! Then you'll think I hate you! You're so stupid.
Lithaladhwen: Well, I'm just saying. If you think of something, I'm never usually doing anything too important.
T3chn0Namagomi: ...I can be your assistant! *_*
PapatymisonN: ... I can't hate you.
Arch mage144: *shrugs* I don't think you need to detour to Gunnir just because it's...don't you have important Mage Corps training drills and duties?
T3chn0Namagomi: I'm off-duty for the time being.
KnightsofSquare: I have a bit of wanderlust myself, which I cleverly dsiguise by claiming to be a traveling storyteller.
pd Rydia: That's not what I said.
KnightsofSquare: That way, I can fool people into believing I'm gainfully employed
pd Rydia: ::without conviction:: What makes you think I care what you think about me?
Besyanteo: *she smirks a bit* But if you're not employed and fooling everyone into thinking you are, how do you get by?
T3chn0Namagomi: (Your color's showing)
Arch mage144: Oh, really? I see.
T3chn0Namagomi: Well, right now, anyway...
Besyanteo: (... wha. Why? Damn AIM.)
KnightsofSquare: Well, sometimes when I'm telling stories, I take off my hat.
Arch mage144: No, no. I don't need an assistant, seriously. I have my lovely wife if I need to saw a woman in half for the audience or whatever.
Besyanteo: (Such a simple thing. And yet...)
KnightsofSquare: And when I pick it up, people have placed money in it for some reason.
Arch mage144: And I have a new baby I can experiment on and use as a test subject for course demonstrations.
PapatymisonN: ... cuz you missed me, from what I can tell. But... if you don't want to talk about it, that's fine.
Besyanteo: Heh.
Lithaladhwen: *clicks her tongue disapprovingly* Come on, Hakaril.
Lithaladhwen: But really. How are they?
Arch mage144: My family? Everything's fine.
PapatymisonN: (So THAT'S why James hates him....)
pd Rydia: Listen, what I'm trying to say is this--if you need me to tell you 'I love you' all the time in public, it won't happen.
pd Rydia: So don't get all woe, woe because I'm not made of sap.
pd Rydia: If you want that, find a dryad.
T3chn0Namagomi: (Own)
pd Rydia: ::flips mug right side up, crosses arms and looks away::
Arch mage144: (Nymph: *kills Jansen when he fails his Fort save against the nymph's beauty attack*)
pd Rydia: (XD)
PapatymisonN: ... I can live with that.
T3chn0Namagomi: (Nereid: *drowns Jansen when he fails his Fort save against the nereid's kiss*)
KnightsofSquare: (That was a druid spell in Baldur's gate. You momentarily transform yourself into a nymph, and everyone has to save or die)
pd Rydia: Better be more than 'live.' Remember, no woe.
pd Rydia: ::looks over at Jansen::
pd Rydia: ::perhaps to make sure there's no woe::
PapatymisonN: (... does this mean Ares tricked Jansen into killing his family?)
Lithaladhwen: (Rune casts detect woe.)
PapatymisonN: *nope. none*
PapatymisonN: *he's just glad she's there*
Arch mage144: (Allies, too, or do you get time to shout "CLOSE YOUR EYES!" as part of the verbal component?)
Besyanteo: (Jansen: ... *apathy! Because it's not really Woe.*)
KnightsofSquare: *shrugs* It usually works well enough, and when it doesn't, Nekogami provides.
KnightsofSquare: (I don't recall)
T3chn0Namagomi: (Instakills in that seem to be discriminatory.)
T3chn0Namagomi: (Unlike things such as Fireball)
Besyanteo: (Hee.)
Arch mage144: *frowns* Perhaps I just need to tell them exactly what I want.
KnightsofSquare: (Don't look! You can't take the hotness!)
Arch mage144: I gave them the week off to work on a major project, which is the only reason I'm back in Doma.
Besyanteo: *he nods, smiling yet more* Amen, that she does.
pd Rydia: ::good!::
Lithaladhwen: I think a lot of the time? When people are working with you they either just... um... well, if they know you they wouldn't worry as much.
pd Rydia: ::hands Jansen her mug:: Top 'r off?
PapatymisonN: *though there IS an undertext of 'dear gods I want to rip your clothes off and do crazyass things to you'...*
PapatymisonN: Yeah, sure.
Besyanteo: (Hak: PRoduce this result or I'll fail you. Failures make a loot run through the basement. Don't fail.)
Lithaladhwen: But people who don't? I think when you have authority over them they kind of want to please you. So I guess just tell them to cool down and give you a cool project.
PapatymisonN: *heads to the bar with the mug*
Lithaladhwen: I can't imagine you're that formal in class.
Arch mage144: Yeah. Yeah. That must be the right idea.
Arch mage144: Oh, hell no.
pd Rydia: (Mike: it's a bunny Kate)
T3chn0Namagomi: (Just as long as nobody looks for Adrienne's creepy hidden Hakaril shrine, it'll be okay. XP)
pd Rydia: (Me: ...It's a Bunny Kate?)
pd Rydia: (Mike: It's a bunny, comma, Kate--It's a bunny, Kate)
pd Rydia: (Me: Oh.)
Besyanteo: (Hee)
pd Rydia: (language gets silly when it's spoken)
Arch mage144: I have told my students that half of good magic is creativity and that it's much more important to do something interesting than anything else. You don't think that's a sufficient carte blanche?
Lithaladhwen: (Holly doesn't want to know.)
Lithaladhwen: Um. Y'know.... do something weird in class.
Lithaladhwen: Something purely for entertainment.
Arch mage144: Hmm.
Besyanteo: (Hak: *head of cabbage* I'M NUTRITIOUS!)
Arch mage144: Perhaps I should polymorph myself into something absurd. Like a maple tree, or a pink sheep.
Lithaladhwen: *laugh*
KnightsofSquare: (Hak: Well...I could instantaneously remove all of the liquid from the body of a grad student...)
T3chn0Namagomi: *Imagines a pink sheep Hakaril* O_o;
Lithaladhwen: I think they'd be less nervous if their teacher were doing goofy things, too. Makes it safer to experiment with new things.
T3chn0Namagomi: (Hak: Or, summon a few succubi and charge admission.)
Arch mage144: (Oddly enough, that's getting into Darin's department.)
KnightsofSquare: (Shit, now look what you did. You made Doug's character a furry.)
Arch mage144: Hmm, perhaps. Most of the point behind magical theory is that anything is possible, and the place most theory courses start is the modification of existing spells.
Besyanteo: (... Pft!)
Arch mage144: I suppose that by modifying a spell as an example in a manner that is purely entertaining...
PapatymisonN: *returns with Rune's drink*
Besyanteo: (... Dude.)
Lithaladhwen: *nods* And it'd be more fun for you, too. You wouldn't have to stand up there pretending you're this stuffy expert on Relevant Magical Things. You could just be one person showing other people something interesting.
Lithaladhwen: Seems like that might be more fun.
Arch mage144: Yeah.
Besyanteo: (Chain-rainbow-hair-dye spell)
Arch mage144: ...man.
Arch mage144: Why aren't you a teacher? You're way better at it than I am, and you, as far as I know, haven't ever tried doing it!
KnightsofSquare: (Whenever two or three are gathered, and one of them turns into a fluffy animal, Stacey is there)
pd Rydia: Thanks.
pd Rydia: (:D)
Besyanteo: (Everyone in line of sight of the person hit is hit, and anyone in line of sight of them...)
PapatymisonN: *nods*
Lithaladhwen: ^_^ Hakaril! It's me. All I told you was to entertain them and yourself.
Lithaladhwen: What else was I going to say?
Besyanteo: (The whole school could get funny hair)
Arch mage144: Good point. Bard.
KnightsofSquare: (The whole world)
pd Rydia: (if you break this chain hair dye spell...!)
KnightsofSquare: (Well, okay, not very likely.)
Besyanteo: (Dia: =D!)
Arch mage144: *drains his tea and slams the glass down on the bar* Alright, I've got something to work with now! Less intimidation, more inspiration! Less authority, more majority! Fewer deliberations, more slogans!
pd Rydia: ::sighs happily as she buries her face into her mug--she can still put them down::
Lithaladhwen: (All I can think about is naked Hakaril and his, "Shit! My natural hair color!" cry, followed by him covering his crotch before anyone can see it.)
blender_bunny@mac.com: (Statting Phylis characters of exceptional skill in one area can lead to some hilarity)
Besyanteo: (Hak: ... And fish!)
Lithaladhwen: All right!
PapatymisonN: ... you're going to really get sloshed, aren't you?
Arch mage144: (Philsys! It's spelled Philsys! It's easy to remember if you consider it to be "Phil's System.")
pd Rydia: ::raises eyebrow:: Have you ever seen me drunk?
PapatymisonN: Not recently.
PapatymisonN: (... did I coin that term? I think I did...)
Besyanteo: (... I totally dropped the ball at some point. x_x)
PapatymisonN: (... nah, I can't have...)
Besyanteo: *Still!*
pd Rydia: Hasn't happened since I was a little kid.
Besyanteo: *Watching and listening to folks*
PapatymisonN: Alright.
blender_bunny@mac.com: (BUT THAT ISN'T MY GRANDMOTHERS NAME D: )
KnightsofSquare: (Hakaril dominates the local conversational landscape)
Lithaladhwen: (Koss' addendum?)
pd Rydia: (:D)
pd Rydia: (you ought to make a Wiki page)
pd Rydia: (under community)
Lithaladhwen: (Kai's law: He'll be mentioned. Shakti's corrolary: He'll show up. Koss' addendum: He'll dominate the RP.)
Besyanteo: (He's garrulous and infamous.)
Besyanteo: (Of course those all apply.)
pd Rydia: ::looks around the inn, noting that all other patrons are paying attention to others::
Besyanteo: *Actually,*
Arch mage144: (I dunno if I'd use "infamous" in reference to him since his reputation is largely good...he's just reputed to be kind of...strange.)
PapatymisonN: ... wow. Guy really knows how to draw a crowd.
Besyanteo: *He's moved his attention to Rune and Jansen now. ... And that, ah, guy*
Besyanteo: *Wright!*
Arch mage144: (Wright: You should consider building more police stations to lower crime in these areas of the city. *sage nodding*)
pd Rydia: ::spots the nekojin's attentive gaze, and looks away::
Besyanteo: (Yoshi: Win my next court battle and I'll consider it.)
Besyanteo: *not THAT attentive. Less so when he sees she's become uncomfortable*
Arch mage144: *stands up, salutes Adrienne militarily, and bows slightly to Holly, tipping his hat* I should've known I could always count on a bard for good advice on how to relate to people.
PapatymisonN: ... somethin' you need, mate?
KnightsofSquare: (Consider removing your hat when teaching)
Arch mage144: I was a student less than eight years ago. It's hard to believe I forgot what I wanted from my teachers.
KnightsofSquare: (When you pick it up, there might be money in it)
Besyanteo: Eh? No. ... I don't know much about this place. I'm just taking everything in.
PapatymisonN: *points to blue-head* Go pay attention to him. Seems to be the life of the party.
Lithaladhwen: It's okay. Teaching is weird, especially when you've got all these important people teaching there. Just remember that you're important too, and you have every right to do things your way.
Besyanteo: I have been for some time. I glanced abck this way and peopel became...
Besyanteo: uncomfortable. >_>;
Besyanteo: (*pretends that's all spelled right*)
Arch mage144: *quirks an eyebrow* True.
Arch mage144: Well, whatever the case may be, I intend to inspire my students!
pd Rydia: I'm fine.
PapatymisonN: ... Eh, don't sweat it.
KnightsofSquare: He does seem to be rather famous
KnightsofSquare: I recall hearing something about a treasury full of fish...which doesn't sound like too terrible of a situation if, you ask me.
Besyanteo: ... IM: Crap, now I'm hungry.
pd Rydia: What type of fish?
pd Rydia: Carp?
PapatymisonN: ... oh, shit, I heard about that...
Besyanteo: ... If he turned the treasury into fish, wouldn't they throw him into prison? o_o
KnightsofSquare: I'm afraid I don't know that detail
PapatymisonN: He turned all the country's gold into salmon.
pd Rydia: >.>
Arch mage144: Hmm. Perhaps I should give a lecture on the "creative use of arcane botches."
KnightsofSquare: ...which usually means I make it up whenever I tell the story.
Besyanteo: *smirk*
Arch mage144: Because, you see, most mages tend to have a specific arcane undercurrent that governs their magical "errors," and flaws in casting tend to manifest themselves in similar ways specific to each mage.
KnightsofSquare: Salmon? *thinks for a moment* Could be worse.
pd Rydia: Tasty stuff.
KnightsofSquare: I don't think it was on purpose. People don't usually do that sort of thing just for the halibut.
Arch mage144: For me, this means that spell failures often take the form of fish. However, this means that if I want fish, it is occasionally convenient to botch a spell "on purpose."
PapatymisonN: ...
PapatymisonN: Did you JUST say that?
Arch mage144: (......)
Arch mage144: (Mike. >_< *dies laughing*)
pd Rydia: (oh god, I just read that aloud)
Besyanteo: (=D)
pd Rydia: (and Mike is right there)
Besyanteo: (XD)
pd Rydia: (you jerk!)
pd Rydia: (he heard my pain and laughed)
Besyanteo: ... That was terrible.
Besyanteo: *he's chuckling, though8
KnightsofSquare: What's the point in learning a language if you're not going to make it do tricks for you? *and indeed, his common does have a bit of a nekonian accent to it*
pd Rydia: ::laughs!::
Besyanteo: ( * **)
PapatymisonN: ... fine, fine... that was terrible, but people seem to like it.
pd Rydia: Fantastic. Tell more!
Lithaladhwen: *laughs*
Lithaladhwen: Wow.
Lithaladhwen: And my spell failures tend to create noises. Musical notes. Sometimes nice, sometimes truly awful.
Lithaladhwen: I ended up with one that sounded like a harpy trying to tune a flute while playing a violin with its feet.
pd Rydia: Don't leave us floundering.
Besyanteo: (Spark: I got named for mine! =D)
Arch mage144: ...wow, that's...terrible to imagine.
KnightsofSquare: I try not to force it, I'm afraid. But I find it difficult to st--
KnightsofSquare: ...well done.
Besyanteo: (Joss: ... *notes to keep paper away from the kitsune*)
Lithaladhwen: ( Click me. )
pd Rydia: (Ashley: :D)
Besyanteo: ... *gets it a moment later, and snerks*
PapatymisonN: ... *looks at Rune* I cannot believe you like puns.
pd Rydia: ::tilts head::
KnightsofSquare: *to Jansen* I hope I haven't gotten her hooked on a new hobby.
Besyanteo: (XD)
KnightsofSquare: That would be a reel shame.
PapatymisonN: ...
Besyanteo: ...
pd Rydia: Oh, I was caught on the habit long ago.
PapatymisonN: Dear gods... *smirks, face in hand*
KnightsofSquare: *sighs* Everyone gives me that line...
Besyanteo: IM: ... I Want to use "net", but I can't think of anything...
pd Rydia: You shouldn't take the bait.
KnightsofSquare: Yes, I know, I know
PapatymisonN: ... OK, we're reaching critical pun mass here...
Lithaladhwen: *facepalms* Oh, wow. You guys are as bad as my dad.
KnightsofSquare: But that's just not something they taught me in...
KnightsofSquare: ....school.
pd Rydia: ::cracks up::
Besyanteo: Ok, ok,
PapatymisonN: .... aaaaaagh...
pd Rydia: Ha ha ha, oh wow!
Arch mage144: *looks vaguely confused* I think someone has been trolling for fish puns.
Besyanteo: you folks have netted yourselves quite enough agravation for the night.
pd Rydia: ::laughs harder::
Lithaladhwen: *laughs*
EternalDragonAya has entered the room.
KnightsofSquare: *raises an eyebrow at Hakaril* So, what's your angle?
PapatymisonN: (Hi!)
Besyanteo: (COngrats: )
pd Rydia: (welcome)
blender_bunny@mac.com: (Hello)
Lithaladhwen: (Hi Kate.)
PapatymisonN: ... *head on table* ARRRRRRG...
Besyanteo: (We have just surpassed the number of puns in any one Dominic Deegan comic)
Arch mage144: I'm just trying to salmon up enough dignity to walk away while I still have the chance.
Lithaladhwen: *throws her head back and laughs*
Besyanteo: *chuckling near constantly now*
Lithaladhwen: Oh, gods.
blender_bunny@mac.com: (There is something wrong if you surpass a Dominic Deegan comic in crappy puns)
pd Rydia: ::pulls Jansen up by each shoulder and puts him in a headlock:: You love it! It's high culture!
Besyanteo: (LIES)
PapatymisonN: But it's so BAD... *laughing, despite himself*
Besyanteo: C'mon,
Arch mage144: *glances over at Wright* Leave it to a cat to start the fish jokes.
Besyanteo: it's oh koi.
Besyanteo: *pats Jansen's shoulder, not expecting him to get it*
pd Rydia: ::grins at Yoshi::
KnightsofSquare: *chuckles, definitely getting it*
PapatymisonN: ... you people are all nuts.
KnightsofSquare: I'll have you know, sir, I had steak tonight.
PapatymisonN: *got it*
KnightsofSquare: Frankly, hearing such vicious stereotypes makes me gill.
Besyanteo: I'd argue that we're a fishy bunch.
Besyanteo: ...
Arch mage144: How bullheaded of you.
KnightsofSquare: ...okay, that one was pretty bad even by my scale...
Besyanteo: *laughs out right*
Arch mage144: I'm mooved by your plight.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, Hakaril.
pd Rydia: Fish can come in steak form. Some of the finest fresh fish I've had has been not filleted but instead succulent strips of steak!
KnightsofSquare: (How appropriate! You fight like a cow!)
Lithaladhwen: Oh, wow.
Besyanteo: I don't dairy move into this next line of puns.
Besyanteo: *goes to get more cider*
Arch mage144: *adjusts his hat* Yes, let's udderly avoid the subject.
KnightsofSquare: I'm just pleased to have stripped all of the relevance from this discussion
Arch mage144: I wouldn't want to milk this conversation any further.
Lithaladhwen: ....This is getting painful. I request fewer puns or more drinking.
Besyanteo: IM: triple combo
PapatymisonN: ... or both.
PapatymisonN: Yeah, both.
Arch mage144: I'm afraid I can provide neither. I need to hoof it back to Gunnir.
Besyanteo: *returns*
Besyanteo: Don't let us hold you up;
Lithaladhwen: Aw. Okay. But be sure to send me word if you want me to come by! Of all the places I've been, I haven't actually visited Gunnir yet.
Besyanteo: your boss might pout you out to pasture.
Besyanteo: (put*)
KnightsofSquare: (Little did they know that a log of this chat would fall through a rift in time and wind up in the hands of a mediocre author, inspiring the Xanth novels)
Arch mage144: Perhaps you should...*stifles a grin* Drop by next week, then, after the students have finished their first major project. You might be able to help me after all.
Lithaladhwen: I will! I promise!
pd Rydia: How droll. Do your damnedest to drive your dear students to success, dear demagogue.
Lithaladhwen: (Koss: ^_^ I love those novels. I made so many references in From the Ashes no one got.)
pd Rydia: ::salutes Hakaril with her free arm!::
PapatymisonN: *doesn't do anything, cuz he doesn't know him*
KnightsofSquare: (In my opinion, they're absolute rubbish, but enjoyable in small amounts)
Besyanteo: IM: Note to self: Puns do well in conversation. Consider mixing with Haiku...
Arch mage144: *salutes in return, with the wrong hand and upside-down* And to you, brave bar-denizen, whatever your aims in life may be, for mine are to educate to retroactively pay for my education!
Arch mage144: *marches himself right out of that inn*
KnightsofSquare: I wish you well, sir! I shall remain here and continue to twist your fair language to my own ends.
Besyanteo: (And, if Yoshi knew what alliteration was, he could make the ultimate "ARGH!")
Besyanteo: (... assuming I could think it up.)
pd Rydia: I fear my facial features may not be able to withstand much more mirth, mate!
Lithaladhwen: Well, that was nice. I wasn't expecting to see him around. I should have assumed he'd skip class.
pd Rydia: ::scrubs at her cheek with her free palm, then lets Jansen go to scrub at both cheeks::
pd Rydia: IM: Oww...
Lithaladhwen: What time is it. Does anyone know?
KnightsofSquare: I think I can tone it down a bit. *loud stage whisper to Yoshi* This way, she'll never know that I was running out of ideas.
pd Rydia: ::chortle, snort::
Besyanteo: *Just chuckles*
pd Rydia: ::yes, snorted--how undignified::
PapatymisonN: *doesn't care...*
Lithaladhwen: (It's so funny to see Jansen all twitterpated.)
pd Rydia: Sorry, Holly, I don't know.
PapatymisonN: (it is. Rune totally defuses him.)
Lithaladhwen: It feels kind of late. Is it past midnight already? Xevan's going to have kittens.
PapatymisonN: Tabby or manx?
Lithaladhwen: Manx.
Lithaladhwen: But I should probably go.
Arch mage144: *meanwhile, back at the inn where Xevan and Holly are currently putting up residence*
Arch mage144: Silverbeak: *AWK!* Xevan's worried, I can tell!
PapatymisonN: OK, Holly. Nice meeting you.
Lithaladhwen: IM: He wouldn't have kittens with tails. Tails are frivolous! Why would they need tails!?
pd Rydia: Bye!
KnightsofSquare: Ah, blessings of Nekogami upon him then
Lithaladhwen: IM: Oh, Xevan. Goofy man.
Arch mage144: Silence, foolish bird, before I remove your beak and feed it to you.
EternalDragonAya has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: *to Jansen and Rune* It was wonderful meeting you guys, too. Hopefully I'll see you around, but if not... take care of yourselves, all right?
pd Rydia: ::nods::
PapatymisonN: *nods*
Arch mage144: Silverbeak: He's going to stand up and find a litter of kittens in his chair, *AWK!*
pd Rydia: I'll keep him from doing something stupid.
Arch mage144: ......*just looks confused*
PapatymisonN: And I'll make sure she has soemthing to do.
PapatymisonN: ^_^
PapatymisonN: *something
KnightsofSquare: (Is that where Noire came from...)
Lithaladhwen: Anyway. Wow. I should go. I'm... Gods, you two are cute. ^_^
Lithaladhwen: Anyway. Bye!
pd Rydia: ::gives Jansen a look::
Besyanteo: Mmm... I should go rent a room for the evening. Good night, friends.
PapatymisonN: *looks back at her*
Besyanteo: *he stands, to go do this!*
PapatymisonN: Well, YOU'RE cute...
PapatymisonN: ... bye, Holly.
Arch mage144: *the drow prods at the book he's reading and idly wonders what raven tastes like, and if it'd be worth the searing, tearing pain as the astral connection between himself and his familiar is severed to find out and get some peace*
Lithaladhwen: *pulls her coat on and yanks the hood up, staring at Jansen from behind the goofy fluffy trim* ^_^ Bye!
Lithaladhwen: *rushes out*
KnightsofSquare: I believe I shall retire as well. *bows theatrically and takes his leave, taking his unfinished steak with him*
pd Rydia: ::stares after Holly::
Lithaladhwen: </Holly>
Arch mage144: </Xevan, Hakaril>
KnightsofSquare: </Wright>
Lithaladhwen: (They're just so cute Holly can hardly stand it.)
pd Rydia: You t-- Oh, gods. How embarrassing!
PapatymisonN: (... they are cute.)
pd Rydia: You embarrassed me so much today! >_<
PapatymisonN: Sorry.
pd Rydia: I'm going to bed!
PapatymisonN: ... I'll walk you up.
KnightsofSquare: (...I'll sex you up)
KnightsofSquare: (WALK. I mean WALK.)
PapatymisonN: (That too.)
pd Rydia: If you embarrass me to the walls I'll shoot you with your own gun.
PapatymisonN: They don't have eyes.
pd Rydia: (Oh Mike, you say the sweetest things. ;D)
Lithaladhwen: (I'm telling you. It is Rune's job to keep him happily whipped for the rest of his life.)
KnightsofSquare: (Aw, you have to wait until the fish puns are over to mention walleyes.
PapatymisonN: Or ears.
pd Rydia: (::wriggles eyebrows:: )
PapatymisonN: (... that was... HORRIBLE...)
pd Rydia: (:D)
Lithaladhwen: (That was brilliant.)
Arch mage144: (You shouldn't mackeral self-conscious about things, Mike.)
KnightsofSquare: (I have a confession to make)
Lithaladhwen: (This RP has been a good thing. I feel like a yenta.)
pd Rydia: /rp
Lithaladhwen: </RP!!>
Lithaladhwen: Kai=Yenta.
PapatymisonN: </rp>
Lithaladhwen: She makes you a match, finds you a find. And yes, Koss. Catches you a catch.
pd Rydia: :D
PapatymisonN: Question, Dia:
PapatymisonN: Jansen seals the deal, right?
Lithaladhwen: Lovely. Real classy, Charles. =P
KnightsofSquare: Having just googled "Yenta", I arrived at that one about at the time you presented it
PapatymisonN: Poor guy's been in a physical and emotional drought...
KnightsofSquare: AND THEN THEY HAVE SEX RIGHT?
Lithaladhwen: *declares Martian Law and marries them*
pd Rydia: YES, THEY SEXXES IT UP
Lithaladhwen: There. Now Ares will smile on your couplings.
PapatymisonN: Kay, good.
Lithaladhwen: Now couple.
Lithaladhwen: *shooing motions*
PapatymisonN: *Jansen breathes a sigh of relief*
KnightsofSquare: He wants to hump her brains out! Ba DUMP! baDUMP! baDUMP!
pd Rydia: Rune's issue is with showing affection, especially in front of third parties
pd Rydia: sex is cool
KnightsofSquare: *fireworks* Sounds like Jansen's gettin' laid!
Arch mage144: Fourth and fifth parties are okay, though, right?
pd Rydia: also: Jonny Dangerously :D
Lithaladhwen: Yeah. Holly and affection are like matter and antimatter.
Lithaladhwen: I can see why she'd be bothered.
Arch mage144: FARGIN SEX
Lithaladhwen: So Dia. Now that we're family.
Lithaladhwen: I have something I want to tell you.
pd Rydia: You fargin icehole!
pd Rydia: wait, what?
Lithaladhwen: *w* I go both ways.
pd Rydia: oh, right!
pd Rydia: I know that. All the people who meet you IRL may think you're a lesbian, but the super secret hidden 3rd option is obvious to me
Lithaladhwen: Aw. Thanks!
pd Rydia: :3
KnightsofSquare: What she's trying to say here is that she knows how to get Bahamut in FF8
pd Rydia: yeah, you pick the dialogue option which isn't there
pd Rydia: me=bed now
pd Rydia: goodnight!
PapatymisonN: Night!
PapatymisonN: And thanks!
pd Rydia has left the room.
Besyanteo has left the room.
KnightsofSquare has left the room.
