Kelne2261: (The king's not the boss of me!)
MischiefMink has entered the room.
Deus Fio: (...wait, what king?)
Deus Fio: (I assumed "By Order of the King" meant Cha was gonna run something.)
Deus Fio: (FALSE ADVERTISING FALSE ADVERTISING.)
PapatymisonN has entered the room.
A Rockin SN: (Cha's the king? Well I didn't vote for him.)
blender_bunny@mac.com has entered the room.
blender_bunny@mac.com: (Rar)
PapatymisonN: (... Well, too damn bad!
PapatymisonN: )
Deus Fio: (Zip.)
Kelne2261: (Ah, Chaz. Just in time. We're discussing overthrowing you. Thoughts?)
KnightsofSquare: (My Puzzle Quest character declared herself a queen)
KnightsofSquare: (She only did it for the stat boost, though)
PapatymisonN: (My thoughts? Don't.)
Lithaladhwen: (Charles demanded RP. I made it.)
Deus Fio: (So what's the haps, yo?)
A Rockin SN: (Puzzle Quest, Koss?)
KnightsofSquare: (Puzzle Quest)
FFFan80 has entered the room.
blender_bunny@mac.com: (What is the setting?)
PapatymisonN: (There is no haps. Only Zod.)
Deus Fio: (Dammit. The two characters I really feel like playing right now are Gillet and Niranjan, and there's no way I'm getting either.)
KnightsofSquare: (Puzzle Quest)
Lithaladhwen: (Cooking pasta. I'll be semi-here until such time as it is done. Dave, you going to be able to play?)
Deus Fio: (Yeah.)
FFFan80: (not certain! =/)
Deus Fio: (...wait, why did I do that?)
Deus Fio: (*hits himself in the head* NO ONE HERE CALLS YOU DAVE. NO ONE HERE CALLS YOU DAVE.)
KnightsofSquare: (What are you doing, Dave?)
FFFan80: (....)
FFFan80: (>_> )
FFFan80: (*throws rabid lion cub at Mike*)
Lithaladhwen: (Jesus Christ! *gets in the car*)
Besyanteo has entered the room.
Lithaladhwen: (Hi Bes!)
Besyanteo: (Bum.)
Besyanteo: (I mean, hi.)
Lithaladhwen: (I request first gen, first and foremost.)
FFFan80: (*pumps up Sir-Mix-A-LOT*)
Lithaladhwen: (Who's considering playing?)
A Rockin SN: ("JESUS CHRIST!" "What?" "Get the keys we're going home.")
Besyanteo: (Hn. Shower... RP...)
blender_bunny@mac.com: (I could go for Metro XD)
MischiefMink: (I may play.)
KnightsofSquare: (I'll play something.)
MischiefMink: (maaaaybe. If I can think of someone to bring in. >_>)
PapatymisonN: (If I don't play, I'll die.)
Lithaladhwen: (I could do MetroCity, too, actually.)
Besyanteo: (The nerd in me demands that Hygiene is not important, but everything else wants him to shut up.)
KnightsofSquare: (I'm whimsical today, so probably not an established character)
Lithaladhwen: (Shower, then come back.)
FFFan80: (I would have to in short bursts. Not at home)
Besyanteo: (It shall be done!)
KnightsofSquare: (The flows of magic are whimsical today)
Deus Fio: (I'm sure you all know which settings I could do.)
Lithaladhwen: (In first gen I want to play a newly freaky Joss. In MetroCity I could be the same girl I always am.)
PapatymisonN: (*just realized that he has a Metro City char with ... what I think is CORN powers*)
Deus Fio: (1gen, SG, MC, Elemaer, SiNY, 2gen Gunnir...uh, that's it, I think.)
Lithaladhwen: (....)
PapatymisonN: (And, ironically, he's NOT corny.)
FFFan80: (...is Metro the super hero thing?)
Lithaladhwen: (Yes, it is.)
PapatymisonN: (That it is.)
FFFan80: (*angsts*)
KnightsofSquare: (ahahaha)
FFFan80: (*I mean*)
FFFan80: ( I may remember that =( )
PapatymisonN: (*attaches to Dave's leg* PWEEEEEEEEEEEEASE PLAY? o.o)
FFFan80: (AAAAAHHHH)
KnightsofSquare: ( I think I could almost do the superhero thing tonight myself)
FFFan80: (*hits off with Mike's foot*)
MischiefMink: (I am unfamiliar with this "Metro" thing. When did a superhero universe appear? O_o)
KnightsofSquare: (Waaaugh! *falls over*)
KnightsofSquare: (played City of Heroes?)
KnightsofSquare: (There are superheroes. Many of them. There are supervillains. Many of them. Don't think about the setting too much.)
Deus Fio: (It's been almost a year since Metro City got up and running, methinks.)
KnightsofSquare: (or at least, that's how I understand it
KnightsofSquare: )
Deus Fio: (Basically, Koss, yeah.)
Lithaladhwen: (Koss basically summed up my understanding of it as well.)
Deus Fio: Why are we bracketed?
Lithaladhwen: Good question.
MischiefMink: I haven't played City of Heroes, but I've heard of it.
FFFan80: ( Nooo, not the outside woooorld ;-; )
Lithaladhwen: Daaave, come on.
PapatymisonN: *pulls down Dave's pan- er, parentheses...*
Lithaladhwen: ...
Lithaladhwen: So yeah. I either want to play Joss in first gen, which is likely going to be my choice if Dave finds he can RP... or the Metro City thing.
Lithaladhwen: I haven't actually played Joss post-detonation, is the thing.
PapatymisonN: This is something I want to see...
KnightsofSquare: Post-detonation?
FFFan80: Since I have no idea how he looks now
Lithaladhwen: He looks normal.
Kelne2261: Post-detonation?
PapatymisonN: ... he blew up.
PapatymisonN: But he got better.
Lithaladhwen: But yes. I detonated him a little.
FFFan80: Trying to rp that on the spot should be interesting
FFFan80: Oh
Lithaladhwen: Nobody took damage, Charles. So you can just hush.
Lithaladhwen: You all made your AGI rolls.
PapatymisonN: What did I say?
PapatymisonN: He DID blow up!
Lithaladhwen: Well, yes.
Lithaladhwen: But no one took damage, so it's not so bad.
Kelne2261: Maybe not physical damage...
Lithaladhwen: Well, this is also fair. I don't think the party liked me doing it. They just didn't get hurt.
PapatymisonN: *found the guy's name* It's Sodak.
KnightsofSquare: If you have sensitive skin, dydrahophaphenoxamyn may cause you to explode from time to time.
PapatymisonN: As I can now recall, it was a play on the phrase "So dark, the man of con..."
Lithaladhwen: >_<
PapatymisonN: *con of man
Lithaladhwen: *pokes Charles in the eye*
Lithaladhwen: Anyway.
PapatymisonN: Ow!
Lithaladhwen: Who's considering playing, and what do they want.
FFFan80: Puns in your character names, Charles?
Lithaladhwen: Roll call GETTO.
FFFan80: I'm shocked
FFFan80: :-(
FFFan80: How's old Daenj'r btw?
PapatymisonN: In no trouble whatsoever.
FFFan80: >_>
MischiefMink: First Gen would mean I actually have characters to play. >_>
FFFan80: Right
Lithaladhwen: First gen.
KnightsofSquare: That seems like an argument in favor of first gen :o
Lithaladhwen: People can play first gen that can't play other things.
PapatymisonN: First gen it is.
PapatymisonN: Though I'll note that creating a char for Metro City is as easy as creating a char for CoH.
PapatymisonN: Anyone got a preferred Gaeran locale?
KnightsofSquare: Wherever. I'm going to be making someone up on the spot anyway
Lithaladhwen: Charles? Make it so.
PapatymisonN: <rp>
PapatymisonN: *Welcome to Doma City Park...*
Deus Fio: <Ake Tanner>
PapatymisonN: *It's minutes to twilight... The sun is making it's sniper's mark across the landscape, straight and true...*
PapatymisonN: *As is par for the course in the park, there are benches to sit on, paths to walk on, ponds to gaze on, and...*
PapatymisonN: *ducks to fear on...*
Lithaladhwen: (And playas to hate on?)
PapatymisonN: (*gets authorization from NAACP head office* Word.)
PapatymisonN: *at this particular point in time...*
PapatymisonN: *there be a blue haired mage, clad in red, sitting on a bench, reading the Gazette, and ...*
PapatymisonN: *twitching a foot like he's pounding out morse code*
Deus Fio: *There's a man on the bench next to him, staring up at the sunset, lost in thought.*
Deus Fio: (Not the same bench. The bench next to his bench.)
PapatymisonN: (Hai.)
FFFan80: ????: ...Hey! Could you knock of the bloody #$@$ing noise?! Some of us are trying to relax!
Deus Fio: IM: How the fuck are we gonna do this?
FFFan80: *nearby, a rather irate man glares at the foot tapper*
Deus Fio: Hmm?
Deus Fio: >_>
PapatymisonN: Mr. Hyral, I'll stop, if you stop being irate.
PapatymisonN: *stops*
FFFan80: *while his companion simply buries their face in a hand and sighs*
Deus Fio: IM: Temper temper, big guy.
Deus Fio: *Ake returns to his meditation.*
FFFan80: Stephan: ...I wouldn't BE irate if SOMEONE would knock their annoying habit off.
FFFan80: *thwap!*
Kelne2261: (Midoku: Lies.)
FFFan80: Midoku: Thank you, sir.
Lithaladhwen: *A twelve-year old boy finds his way to the park. For this time of year, he's chosen an odd mode of dress. He's got long pants on instead of shorts, and even has a pair of mittens sticking out of one pocket.*
FFFan80: Stephan: *rubs side of his head* >.<
Lithaladhwen: *He stops mid-step as he notices that he knows several people here.*
Lithaladhwen: ....huh.
Deus Fio: *Not the "at peace with himself" kind, which he looks like he desperately needs. The "thinking about something important" kind.*
PapatymisonN: ... ... *looks around, like something just caught his attention*
Lithaladhwen: *pulls up the collar of his coat and draws it around him like he's fucking freezing*
FFFan80: Stephan: ...*in a hushed voice* why'd you go and do that for?!
Lithaladhwen: *little wave to Stephan and Card*
PapatymisonN: ... o.o Joss!
FFFan80: Midoku: *same low voice* Because you are once again, ignoring common cour... are you paying attention to me?
PapatymisonN: Hey, how are you? ^_^
FFFan80: Stephan: *looking over at Joss*
FFFan80: Stephan: o_o
Lithaladhwen: ....I'm good.
Deus Fio: IM: Taking out a loan is still Plan Z.
FFFan80: Stephan: ...Mid?
Lithaladhwen: *is being stared at* ...>_>
Deus Fio: IM: I have room for 25 better plans than that.
FFFan80: Midoku: The next words out of your mouth had best be 'yes, sorry for interrupting you, please go ahead' e_e
FFFan80: Stephan: ....
FFFan80: Stephan: e_e; *points at Joss*
FFFan80: Midoku: *looks over*
FFFan80: Midoku: .....
FFFan80: Midoku: o_o
PapatymisonN: ^_^ Are... are you feeling OK? After, y'know... the oddness?
Lithaladhwen: .....Yragh. Whatever.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...he appears to be in garments for frigid weather.
Lithaladhwen: *goes over to Cardinal*
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, I'm fine. Why?
PapatymisonN: ... let me guess.
Deus Fio: IM: Oddness?
PapatymisonN: Your new state demands constant heat energy?
Deus Fio: >_>
Lithaladhwen: No, it's just fucking cold out.
Lithaladhwen: I don't know what's wrong with the rest of you
Deus Fio: Huh? No it ain't.
FFFan80: Stephan: Apparently.
PapatymisonN: ... it will be summer in a week.
Lithaladhwen: It's colder'n a rhemoraz's balls out here, dude.
FFFan80: Stephan: But, that doesn't make any bloody sense...
Lithaladhwen: Actually, wait.
PapatymisonN: I just wear my long coat because I'm insane and used to wearing heavy robes in the heat...
Lithaladhwen: Frost g iant.
FFFan80: Midoku: Perhaps he is ill?
Lithaladhwen: A rhemoraz is hot.
Lithaladhwen: Their prey is cold, though.
Lithaladhwen: Anyway.
Lithaladhwen: You get the idea.
FFFan80: Midoku: One may often feel cold when ill.
PapatymisonN: *nod*
Deus Fio: Frost giants have gotta be pretty warm too.
FFFan80: Stephan: ...I guess...
Deus Fio: They gotta, like, fight off the cold of their surroundings.
FFFan80: Midoku: .....
FFFan80: Midoku: *pokes*
FFFan80: Stephan: Ow, what?!
PapatymisonN: *to Mid* He's fine, he's just... adjusting to some things.
Lithaladhwen: Hey! What're you whispering about!
Lithaladhwen: The heck, dude!
FFFan80: (*smacks Charles* I was getting to that =( )
PapatymisonN: What? o.o
PapatymisonN: IM: It's not like I revealed anything... MAJOR...
FFFan80: Stephan: ...nothing!
FFFan80: Stephan: ....um
FFFan80: Stephan: The ducks were pissing me off
Lithaladhwen: (If Mid's one to peek at auras, he can probably figure out what the fuck is going on.)
FFFan80: Midoku: ...
FFFan80: Midoku: o_ó
PapatymisonN: IM: And the ducks piss EVERYONE off... <.<
FFFan80: Stephan: >\/>;
Lithaladhwen: (At the very least, he'll see lots of fire energy where it wasn't before.)
Deus Fio: >_> Are you sick, kid? I had a late spring flu once and I kept telling everyone it was cold and they thought I was nuts.
Deus Fio: But...I think I managed to draw the line at mittens.
Lithaladhwen: No, I'm not sick. Just freezing my balls off.
FFFan80: Midoku: >.>? ...*can't help a quick peek into the astral*
Lithaladhwen: Was it this cold this time last year?
FFFan80: Stephan: ....
FFFan80: Stephan: It's the bloody summer
PapatymisonN: In a week.
FFFan80: Stephan: Close enough.
Lithaladhwen: The fuck do you know, Stephan? I'm cold.
Lithaladhwen: It's either cold out and you're all nuts, or I'm just... wrong all over.
Lithaladhwen: Which I might be.
FFFan80: Midoku: o_o IM: ...odd, I do not recall his aura being so... vibrant last time...
PapatymisonN: ... wait...
PapatymisonN: *w2Joss* The Shamayans let you in on what happened, right?
Deus Fio: IM: This kid playing a joke on us?
FFFan80: Midoku: 9_<? IM: ...does it have to do with that 'psionic' method to his magical nature? Perhaps I should look into that later...
Lithaladhwen: *snaps* Yeah, I know. I know better'n they do. I was there.
FFFan80: Stephan: ...
FFFan80: Stephan: Did I miss something? o\/o?
PapatymisonN: Oh, OK. Was unclear for a moment there.
Deus Fio: IM: More importantly: Does a kid who thinks it's really cold out when it isn't present some kind of cash cow that can keep the dojo afloat?
FFFan80: Stephan: What the hell are you two going on about?
Lithaladhwen: ....
Lithaladhwen: All right, y'know what? Fine.
Lithaladhwen: *pulls his hands out of his pockets*
Deus Fio: IM: Probably not.
Lithaladhwen: *holds one out to Stephan, manly hand-shake style*
FFFan80: Midoku: 6_<? IM: ...perhaps if I can track down Hakaril early enough in the morning, I can hear his thoughts on this before the evening comes to pass...
FFFan80: Stephan: ......
PapatymisonN: *waits for it*
FFFan80: Stephan: ...do I look like I was born yesterday?
Lithaladhwen: Just fucking do it.
FFFan80: Stephan: 9\/9 Do you know how many damn practical jokes start like this?
Lithaladhwen: It'll make sense.
FFFan80: Stephan: *sighs* Fine, fine.
PapatymisonN: IM: ^_^ At least one more...
Lithaladhwen: If I wanted to play a joke on you I'd set your eyebrows on fire.
FFFan80: Stephan: .......
Lithaladhwen: Still got eyebrows, right?
FFFan80: Stephan: e_e
Lithaladhwen: Then I'm not playing a joke on you.
Deus Fio: >_>?
FFFan80: Stephan: Just hurry up already *grabs hand*
Lithaladhwen: *Y'know how sometimes when you're washing the dishes the water isn't actually burning you but it's still too hot to stick your hands in? That's about how hot the kid's skin is.*
Lithaladhwen: I don't think I'm normal anymore.
FFFan80: Stephan: ...@$#@$#@$#@$
FFFan80: Stephan: >_< *flails hand a sec*
Lithaladhwen: *shoves his hands back in his pockets*
FFFan80: Midoku: 9_< IM: ...there was that one instance in the plane of fire tomb that men....
FFFan80: Midoku: o_o
FFFan80: Midoku: Stephan?
PapatymisonN: *chuckling internally*
FFFan80: Stephan: Son of a #$#@$ @$#$ bloody @$#@$
FFFan80: Midoku: .....
FFFan80: Midoku: ...did... something happen? o_o;
PapatymisonN: *and smiling visibly... like he's in on the joke*
Lithaladhwen: Plane of fire.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...what of it? o.o?
Lithaladhwen: We were fighting this offworlder to keep him away from a powerful chaos artifact, and when I came into contact with it I was blasted into the plane of fire!
FFFan80: Midoku: ......
Lithaladhwen: I mean, it kind of hurt a little, in that way that your flesh burning does.
FFFan80: Midoku: *blinks*
KnightsofSquare: (He went down, down, down)
FFFan80: Stephan: .....
KnightsofSquare: (And the flames went higher)
FFFan80: Stephan: *blinks*
Lithaladhwen: And eventually it's like there wasn't anything but fire and then it didn't hurt anymore. It felt like I was everywhere!
KnightsofSquare: (And it burned, burned, burned...the plane of fire)
KnightsofSquare: (The plane of fire)
FFFan80: Stephan & Midoku: What?
Deus Fio: (Mike...I love you.)
Deus Fio: >_>?
FFFan80: *cue shared look of what the hell*
Lithaladhwen: And then I caught sight of an opening to the astral that went out to the material. I used it to find my way back. After that I don't really remember.
Lithaladhwen: (We all do, Mike. You did the right thing.)
FFFan80: Midoku: o_o
Deus Fio: Opening to the...astral...out to the...
PapatymisonN: (Indeed. You are to be commended.)
Deus Fio: IM: Wow, glad I sticked to the "punching people" career.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...that is... my word.
Lithaladhwen: (I am lagging like twelve bitches on a bitch boat.)
Lithaladhwen: So I think ....I think I'm not normal.
Lithaladhwen: At work today, I kind of...
Lithaladhwen: I don't know what the... discorporated? Maybe?
FFFan80: Stephan: ...huh?
Lithaladhwen: My hand disappeared when I was poking around in the forge.
Lithaladhwen: I got it back, though.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...fascinating... o.o
FFFan80: Midoku: *appears to be looking over Joss rather thoroughly* 6.6 9.9
Deus Fio: IM: My whole choice of livelihood is vindicated with the realiztion that I never have to think about what this stuff actually means.
Lithaladhwen: ...Are you looking at my aura?
FFFan80: Midoku: 6.6 9.9?
Lithaladhwen: That's really weird, y'know. That's like... looking at my underpants without telling me.
Deus Fio: IM: And not seeing people's auras is cool with me, too.
FFFan80: Stephan: ...he can't hear you, so I'd say yes. <_<
PapatymisonN: When you left the plane of fire, you were naked...
FFFan80: Stephan: ....
Lithaladhwen: Was I? I guess I would've been.
PapatymisonN: Yeah.
PapatymisonN: Clothes weren't fire retardant, I suppose...
Lithaladhwen: Well, I mean. How long do you think your pants would've survived in there, huh?
PapatymisonN: I myself wouldn't last, let alone my pants.
FFFan80: Stephan: ...
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, well.
FFFan80: Stephan: *seems a bit at a loss for words at the moment*
FFFan80: Midoku: o.< *read read thinku!*
FFFan80: Midoku: IM: Somehow, the contact with this strange artifact must have altered him... or perhaps it was the energy of the plane itself...
PapatymisonN: I'm just glad you're not... well...
PapatymisonN: Dead.
FFFan80: Stephan: ....so, uh.
Lithaladhwen: >_>
PapatymisonN: Everyone was afraid of that when you disappeared.
FFFan80: Stephan: ...have you... had someone, check you?
Lithaladhwen: *mumbles incoherently to himself*
Lithaladhwen: *shakes his head* What would they need to check?
Kelne2261: *And, in the random cameo department, an elven kid scurries past in pursuit of a ball. Seems a bunch of kids have been kicking it about.*
FFFan80: Stephan: How the hell shoudl I know?
Lithaladhwen: Well, I don't know either!
Deus Fio: (I wonder if the kids realize the elven kid is probably around 50 or 60.)
FFFan80: Stephan: Exactly, you should have someone make sure you're alright!
Lithaladhwen: I mean, if I stop being able to sustain a body like this I'll have problems, and I don't know what I'll do come winter, but... I'm fine right now and what business is it of yours!
PapatymisonN: The Shamayans checked him out.
Lithaladhwen: I can take care of myself. *scowls*
PapatymisonN: Couldn't find anything wrong, just... different.
Lithaladhwen: Shut up, Cardinal.
PapatymisonN: Just saying it, Joss.
FFFan80: Stephan: You're near freezing
FFFan80: Stephan: In what I'm going to guess is mild weather
Kelne2261: (Cerene: No, really. I am seven. I just grow really fast.)
FFFan80: Stephan: I'd say something's wrong.
Deus Fio: (...do elves learn more slowly than humans? It seems logical that they'd have to.)
Lithaladhwen: (Yeah, they do.)
Besyanteo: (Location?)
FFFan80: Stephan: Am I right, Mid?
FFFan80: Midoku: >.o
Lithaladhwen: Hey! No ganging up on me! I'm fine.
Kelne2261: (They do indeed. But Cerene just looks like one.)
Deus Fio: (Humans must freak the longer-lived races the fuck out.)
FFFan80: Stephan: ...*NUDGE*
FFFan80: Midoku: OH, um... yes... er... no
FFFan80: Midoku: ...what are we discussing? o.o;
Besyanteo: (Human child of 7: Two... times... 3... is six!)
PapatymisonN: Nothing, I'd guess.
Lithaladhwen: (Spleen: Yeah, that's kind of the idea. S'why it's hard for them to believe sometimes that a twenty year old human is an adult.)
Besyanteo: (Elf of 50 years: WTF?!)
PapatymisonN: Just how if Joss needs help, he'll ask.
PapatymisonN: And even if he doesn't, it's his prerogative.
Besyanteo: (... afk, mother is in trouble)
Lithaladhwen: *grumbles*
FFFan80: Midoku: Oh, I would agree.
PapatymisonN: It's not like he's a child or anything... *sits back down on his bench*
KnightsofSquare: (Elven child: OMG WTF HAX)
FFFan80: Midoku: If this artifact is of unknown origin, there is no telling what kind of effects it may have had placed on you.
Lithaladhwen: *crosses his arms* Can we talk about something else?
Lithaladhwen: Cardinal. How's your kid.
PapatymisonN: ... the origins aren't unknown.
PapatymisonN: And Juan is doing quite well. Bright and rosy. ^_^
FFFan80: Stephan: Oh no. I don't think so.
FFFan80: Stephan: e_e If you think I'm letting kiddy talk distract me you're in for a...
FFFan80: Midoku: You have a child, Cardinal? o_o
Lithaladhwen: Shut up Stephan! I'm talking to my friend about his firstborn son.
FFFan80: Stephan: ....*twitch*
Lithaladhwen: Hn.
PapatymisonN: Yes! Only 8 weeks old.
Kelne2261: (In other news, A song for the robots )
PapatymisonN: His name is Juan Goffredo Ovidio Domingo Messiah.
FFFan80: Midoku: Congratulations! ^_^
FFFan80: Midoku: ....
FFFan80: Midoku: ...that is a rather long name o_o;
Lithaladhwen: That's a hell of a name, dude.
PapatymisonN: ... his mother is a Traveller. It's tradition.
FFFan80: Stephan: ¬.¬ IM: ...you just wait, you're not off the hook that easy...
KnightsofSquare: (Juan Messiah, Tu Messiah)
KnightsofSquare: (Red Messiah, Blue Messiah)
PapatymisonN: (...)
Lithaladhwen: (...)
FFFan80: (...)
KnightsofSquare: (...)
KnightsofSquare: (all the cool kids were doing it)
FFFan80: (:-()
Lithaladhwen: Oh, okay. I guess if his mom's family does it it's cool.
KnightsofSquare: (Ya know Catholic clergy are supposed to be celibate, right?)
Lithaladhwen: My mom named me and all.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...how odd.
FFFan80: Midoku: As I recall, the Doman Royal family has names in a similar tradition. o.o
PapatymisonN: ... yeah... I should ask about that sometime... *shrug*
PapatymisonN: Doesn't seem TOO odd, though... coincidence?
FFFan80: Stephan: *broods*
FFFan80: Midoku: I suppose that would depend on naming conventions historically in the area.
FFFan80: Midoku: But that is somewhat out of my area of expertise.
Deus Fio: *Ake's just kind of watching. Not commenting.*
Deus Fio: *Probably because he has no idea who these people are and doesn't want to butt in.*
Deus Fio: *They sure are interesting, though!*
Lithaladhwen: (Freaky Domans. They're all like this. EVEN YOU)
PapatymisonN: ... hmmm... it's not IN mine yet... but I want it to be.
PapatymisonN: It definitely bears investigation...
Lithaladhwen: .....riiiight.
Lithaladhwen: Uh... yeah, okay.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...I apologise, I suppose I am being... somewhat boring >.>;
Lithaladhwen: It's just kind of a weird thing to theorize about.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...why is that? o.o?
Lithaladhwen: Well, I mean, where did your name come from?
Deus Fio: IM: Great Uncle Akrum.
Kelne2261: (Midoku: My mother mashed a keyboard. ;_; )
PapatymisonN: IM: ... my parents must have loved redundancy. e_e
Lithaladhwen: (XD)
Lithaladhwen: (Truth.)
Lithaladhwen: (Their daughter's name was a little too optimistic as well.)
Deus Fio: (Note: Ake's name isn't actually "Akrum". His father decided to cut out the middleman; Uncle Ake was called Uncle Ake, and so that would be Ake's given name.)
T3chn0Namagomi has entered the room.
Lithaladhwen: (Hey Nama.)
Lithaladhwen: (First gen. Park. Cardinal, Joss, Stephan, Mid, and Ake.)
Lithaladhwen: (I miss anyone?)
PapatymisonN: (That's all of 'em.)
T3chn0Namagomi: (I see...*think*)
Lithaladhwen: I mean, near as I can tell my name doesn't mean anything, and I have it because my parents have it. There're probably lots of Hunters out there I'm not related to.
Lithaladhwen: So I'm not sure how much help it is to go on a big thing about names.
KnightsofSquare: (Actually, Vampire Hunter D is a distant cousin)
Lithaladhwen: (Damn you.)
PapatymisonN: ... all my names are kind of silly.
Lithaladhwen: What are they?
Lithaladhwen: I mean, the non-bird ones.
PapatymisonN: Well, in my original language, Salvador, my first name, means saviour.
Deus Fio: "Non-bird ones"?
PapatymisonN: And my family name, Messiah, means... um...
PapatymisonN: Essentially...
PapatymisonN: Expected deliverer.
PapatymisonN: Or... *shrug* A saviour. <.<
Deus Fio: Savior Savior?
Lithaladhwen: *to Ake* Cardinal. Bird.
Deus Fio: Ohh.
Deus Fio: I get it.
Deus Fio: Why do you go by that and not Salvador?
MischiefMink has left the room.
PapatymisonN: ... I prefer Cardinal.
Deus Fio: *shrugs* Okay.
Lithaladhwen: I go by Joss. Because my name is Joss. Most people call me Joss. *to Ake* You can, too.
Deus Fio: Gotcha.
Deus Fio: ...wait, I think I remember you, kid.
Deus Fio: There was...uh...a bar.
Lithaladhwen: Maybe. I'm pretty well-known, actually.
Deus Fio: Actually, that describes my entire life, so let me try and think of something more specific.
Lithaladhwen: Lot of people talk about me and stuff.
Deus Fio: Was Zeke Mazuo there, maybe?
Lithaladhwen: Oh, right. Yeah. Solis and I were hanging out with that *veryveryvulgarwordindwarven* and you were there.
Deus Fio: *bursts out laughing*
Deus Fio: =Do you speak fluent Dwarven, or just naughty words?=
Lithaladhwen: =Yeah, I speak it. I just don't like to say certain things about a lady unless I really really need to.=
Lithaladhwen: =And she deserved it, but not so everyone could understand it.=
Deus Fio: *Ake's Dwarven is pretty heavily accented, but his grammar and vocabulary are good.*
Deus Fio: =Who? I don't remember who else was there.=
FFFan80: (sorry distractions x.x; )
Lithaladhwen: =This shit-eating drider-licking whore who kidnapped my friend later.=
KnightsofSquare: (Hi, may name is Joss. You can call me Joss. Most folks do)
KnightsofSquare: (Nice day...I sure hope someone needs a fire elemental sometime)
Lithaladhwen: (I was waiting for you to catch that, Joss.)
Lithaladhwen: (KOSS)
Lithaladhwen: (OMFG)
T3chn0Namagomi: (XD)
Lithaladhwen: (*stabs herself in the eye*)
Deus Fio: *Ake works something over in his head, lips moving slowly.*
T3chn0Namagomi: (*Kai is now permanently lacking in depth perception*)
Deus Fio: =You lost me on one of those words.=
Deus Fio: =<Dwarven word for "drider">=
KnightsofSquare: (I'm not on fire ;_; )
Lithaladhwen: *lapses back to Common* Drider. As in "drider-licking whore."
Deus Fio: Oh.
Deus Fio: Drider-licking whore, huh?
Lithaladhwen: Yeah.
Deus Fio: I seriously don't remember who else was there.
KnightsofSquare: (*envisions a spelling bee* "Could you use the word in a sentence, please?")
KnightsofSquare: (Sure. "Bake me a fucking pie, you drider-licking whore")
Lithaladhwen: (Hee.)
Deus Fio: (XD XD XD)
Lithaladhwen: (Stop mocking the boy's profanity. He likes to be inventive.)
Lithaladhwen: Eh. Just some chick. Cardinal, did you guys kill them?
PapatymisonN: Oh, wait, who?
PapatymisonN: IM: I kill so many people, it's hard to keep track! Ha!
PapatymisonN: IM: ...
T3chn0Namagomi: (Ha ha! You're comparable to Kamos now!)
Deus Fio has left the room.
Deus Fio has entered the room.
Deus Fio: (NO ONE SAW ME CLOSE THE WRONG WINDOW.)
Deus Fio: (NO ONE.)
T3chn0Namagomi: (I DID!)
PapatymisonN: (He's really not.)
Deus Fio: (>_>)
Deus Fio: (*vaporizes Doug*)
Lithaladhwen: The two chicks who worked for that =wasp-nest-fucking beard-chewer=.
blender_bunny@mac.com has left the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: (*Guard Impact*)
PapatymisonN: (Until Card kills A TOWN, Nama will always beat him.)
PapatymisonN: Oh. Sorry. They went to jail.
PapatymisonN: PROBABLY rehabilitatable.
Lithaladhwen: e_e
T3chn0Namagomi: (To be fair, Kamos only blew up a couple of blocks)
Lithaladhwen: Bullshit they are.
Besyanteo: *back)
Besyanteo: (Yay for low blood sugar crises.)
PapatymisonN: Well then, they'll spend their lives in prison.
PapatymisonN: No need to worry yourself about them.
PapatymisonN: They don't matter anymore.
Lithaladhwen: Fuck you. They matter to me.
Besyanteo: (so, once again: Location?)
MajorGeneralTso has entered the room.
MajorGeneralTso: (...)
Lithaladhwen: (Park. First gen. Stephan, Mid, Joss, Card, and Ake.)
T3chn0Namagomi: (Go Joss! Fight the Man and his assumption that everyone can be forcibly conformed to a society's moral expectations through bedtime with Bubba!)
PapatymisonN: ... they ... I don't know what to tell you, Joss.
Lithaladhwen: You wouldn't.
Lithaladhwen: >\/>
PapatymisonN: If they get out somehow and cause trouble, go ahead. Vaporize them. Not my business.
PapatymisonN: But until then, put them out of your mind, alright?
PapatymisonN: Matter's handled.
Lithaladhwen: They already caused enough trouble. You can put it out of your mind because you don't know what those fucking people were like.
Besyanteo: (.. Yeaaaah. I think I'm gonna sit this one out.)
PapatymisonN: And they WON'T cause anymore trouble because they've been isolated from the public.
PapatymisonN: If that changes, then you'll be the first one I contact, alright?
T3chn0Namagomi: (Until a GM says otherwise!)
Kelne2261: (Y'know, I can't help wondering if Doma's going to wind up with somewhere like Arkham, where they put all the crazed supervillains.)
Lithaladhwen: They managed to cause trouble from another plane. I'd say that's reason to worry about them.
T3chn0Namagomi: (They already seem to... <_< )
Lithaladhwen: If you'd seen just a little more of the inside of Annie's lab, I bet you'd be pissed, too.
Lithaladhwen: (It's called the Jade Dragon. =P )
Lithaladhwen: (Alll the crazies are there.)
KnightsofSquare: (Doug: You seem to make light of prison rape a lot lately.)
PapatymisonN: ... I'm just glad we could do what we could to shut Anwell down as quickly as possible.
T3chn0Namagomi: (It's one of those things that seems to be inexorably tied with prison.)
Besyanteo: (Before this goes further: )
Besyanteo: (Doug: Shut up about Prison. You know nothing. Seriously. :-( )
Lithaladhwen: Whatever. If they so much as look at anyone wrong, I'll blast them into an ash so fine you can't even see it. Got it?
Besyanteo: (Mike: ... It's already in IM, but Doug should know I'm talking to him too)
T3chn0Namagomi: (Fine, fine.)
PapatymisonN: By all means. As I said, you'll be the first I contact.
PapatymisonN: Ensures it'll be over quick...
Lithaladhwen: Good. *scowls*
Deus Fio: So who is this we're blasting into ash?
Lithaladhwen: Women who dragged my friend and me off to be tested on by some offworlder fuck who wanted to be a mage.
Deus Fio: "Tested on"?
Lithaladhwen: He wanted to make himself a mage.
Lithaladhwen: My friend is one.
Deus Fio: Yeah...
Deus Fio: He couldn't just, like, go to Gunnir?
PapatymisonN: Offworlder.
PapatymisonN: From a magic-dead realm.
PapatymisonN: IM: Mine...
Deus Fio: Sooo...how does kidnapping help him become a mage?
Deus Fio: Drinking good Gaeran blood?
KnightsofSquare: (XP for completing the quest.)
T3chn0Namagomi has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: He wanted to know the differences between mages and non-mages, and I think he wanted to see if he could change himself.
Lithaladhwen: I really didn't appreciate him.
Deus Fio: Ah. Yup. Definitely psycho enough to be a mage.
PapatymisonN: Very glad he's dead.
PapatymisonN: So very, very dead.
Lithaladhwen: Glad you killed him at least.
PapatymisonN: ... the girls were the body of the snake.
PapatymisonN: He was the head.
Deus Fio: Literally?
Deus Fio: *imagining two girls and a man merging together to form a snake creature*
Lithaladhwen: No, not literally you boob.
Deus Fio: Hey. It's Doma.
KnightsofSquare: (...and i'll form the head!)
Deus Fio: You wanna tell me for sure there's no guy and two girls that combine and form some snake thing to be found in this city?
Lithaladhwen: Doma's not that weird. *the little fire elemental pulls his coat tighter around him*
PapatymisonN: ... it's got the potential to be, though... <.<
PapatymisonN: If someone told me there was a giant chimeric snake which was the conglomerate of several people, the first thing on my mind would NOT be "Bullshit".
Deus Fio: See? I'm not crazy.
Deus Fio: ...rephrase.
Deus Fio: In this particular instance, I'm not delusional.
Lithaladhwen: Whatever. It was clearly a metaphor. Abstract thinking, dude.
KnightsofSquare: (There's a small snake that's effectively a gold golem. Does that count?)
Besyanteo: (This RP tempts me.)
KnightsofSquare: (it guards the back room of Meph's shop)
Kelne2261: (I grow tempted myself.)
PapatymisonN: (*puts a cookie just inside the door of the RP*)
Besyanteo: *AND*
PapatymisonN: (*or perhaps two!*)
Besyanteo: (Stil lthe park, right?)
Deus Fio: Abstract thinking never solved anything!
Lithaladhwen: The hell? Says who?!
FFFan80: (think so)
Besyanteo: *There's a strrange sound approaching*
Deus Fio: I dunno.
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, thought so.
Besyanteo: *likes paper rustling, but... not quite*
Deus Fio: Man, you've got no sense of humor, kid.
Deus Fio: Or you don't have mine, which is basically the same thing.
Lithaladhwen: I guess.
FFFan80: Midoku: ....>.o? *ear flick* Is someone reading a book?
Besyanteo: *It gets louder. Just a little*
FFFan80: Stephan: o_ó
FFFan80: Stephan: ...have you been thinking too much again?
Besyanteo: *A silouhette is approaching from the direction of the market*
FFFan80: Midoku: <\/<
FFFan80: Midoku: Did you not just hear that?
PapatymisonN: ... I heard it too. *looking around*
Besyanteo: (Gotta love the Tornas family. =D)
Lithaladhwen: (They're adorable.)
Besyanteo: *Cardinal is the first to see!*
FFFan80: (Stephan: *BEATS*)
FFFan80: (Stephan: LIES e_@)
Besyanteo: *What appears to be the torso of a well muscled argovian man, with long flowing black hair with many small coloful jewels tied into it,*
Besyanteo: *placed on the very large length of a long, white snake*
Lithaladhwen: (Naaaagas!)
PapatymisonN: ... OH!
FFFan80: Midoku: <\/< now I suppose you shall claim to not be hearing that either?
PapatymisonN: Oh, Uh... Hi. o.o
Besyanteo: *Aparently, people can becomes snakes! ... Or something!*
Lithaladhwen: ....*follows Cardinal's gaze*
Besyanteo: *He looks like he was just going to pass by, but...*
Lithaladhwen: Huh.
Besyanteo: *Suddenly he's the center of attention*
FFFan80: Stephan: >\/> Ok, fine, I bloody hear it, but what's the big de...
FFFan80: Stephan: ....o_o
FFFan80: Midoku: ?
FFFan80: Midoku: >_>?
FFFan80: Midoku: ...o_o
Lithaladhwen: Okay, fine. So I, like, owe you a gil or something, dude. *to Ake*
Lithaladhwen: Whatever.
Deus Fio: Hah.
Deus Fio: I was just totally thinking that.
Besyanteo: *he slithers to a halt, and folding his hands together he gives the barest nod* Good evening to you.
FFFan80: Midoku: -_- o_o; ...um... good...evening?
PapatymisonN: *nods back, equally*
Lithaladhwen: *all wrapped up in his winter clothes, Joss gives a little bow*
Besyanteo: *He has a very thick accent that none of them are lickely to recognize*
Besyanteo: (... likely*)
Deus Fio: (Why am I playing Ake like Boreas tonight? It's within his range of moods, yeah, but it's still weird considering he's in pretty dire straits right now.)
Lithaladhwen: (Maybe he's trying to distract himself.)
Besyanteo: (You could have him have a panic attack later or something.)
FFFan80: Stephan: o_o
Besyanteo: I am new to Doma Capital. Tell me,
Besyanteo: Is the lake near this place?
Deus Fio: (Ake doesn't do panic attacks. He's very careful about problems like the one he has.)
Lithaladhwen: Uh, yeah. *points to a distant area of the park* That way.
Lithaladhwen: Look out for the ducks.
FFFan80: Midoku: I would use caution as...
PapatymisonN: Yeah.
PapatymisonN: They're... mean.
Deus Fio: There's actually one that speaks, but not Common.
Besyanteo: I will use care. Many thanks. *he nods once again,*
Besyanteo: *and then heads that way!*
FFFan80: Midoku: Not a problem ^_^
FFFan80: Stephan: o_o
Deus Fio: >_>
Deus Fio: Doma.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...that was certainly unexpected o.o;
Deus Fio: 9_9
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, well. You win this one.
FFFan80: Stephan: o_o
Besyanteo: *If anyone is bothering to watch,*
Deus Fio: Yeah, it happens.
Lithaladhwen: *Joss is*
Besyanteo: *He seems to be entering the shallow end of the lake, and pouring a hand full of water over his brow*
Besyanteo: *then he bows his head and mutters for a bit*
FFFan80: Midoku: ...um...
FFFan80: Midoku: Is that man bathing in public? o_o;;
FFFan80: Stephan: o_o
Besyanteo: (Ha. Poor Stephan.)
Lithaladhwen: I dunno. Not like he's flailing around naked or anything.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...true... perhaps some kind of observance? 9.<
PapatymisonN: ... do YOU see clothes on him?
Lithaladhwen: Well, you know what I mean. He's not swinging his junk around in public.
FFFan80: Midoku: ....
Besyanteo: *technically, he IS naked*
FFFan80: Midoku: ...that is... one way to put it >_>;
Besyanteo: *but he doesn't seem to ahve visible junk to wave about*
Deus Fio: He don't look like he's got that much junk to wave >_>
Lithaladhwen: (Well then they can't be swung, then. Can they.)
Besyanteo: (Whee!)
KnightsofSquare: (Oh, he does.)
Lithaladhwen: Well, that's not my problem. What sort of junk a man has is no business of mine.
KnightsofSquare: (He just keeps it in the trunk)
Besyanteo: *and, before TOO long,*
Deus Fio: Hey, you're the one who brought up junk-swinging.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...a wise way to go about life, Joss... >_>;
Besyanteo: *he looks up again, and heads on out of the water*
FFFan80: Stephan: o_o
PapatymisonN: ... must be... snake... "junk".
Besyanteo: *and, why not? He heads on back*
FFFan80: Midoku: ....
Deus Fio: Swinging your junk around is a really good way to make you have to ice your junk.
PapatymisonN: Which, if I can recall, is...
FFFan80: Midoku: ...
Kelne2261: (Junk nothing. People should be worried about how good his ears are.)
PapatymisonN: Always... concealed... o.o Welcome back.
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, well. No junk-icin-- hey.
FFFan80: Midoku: Could we PLEASE cease the discussion of 'JUNK'? >_<
FFFan80: Midoku: .......
FFFan80: Midoku: o_o
Lithaladhwen: (I'm quoting that.)
FFFan80: Midoku: .......
Besyanteo: (XD)
FFFan80: Midoku: *@_@*
Deus Fio: (Heh. Which?)
Lithaladhwen: (Mid.)
Besyanteo: *he smiles heartily* you are a very free speaking people.
FFFan80: Midoku: *@.x* ...ThatWasHighlyInappropriateIAmTrulySorry
Besyanteo: Do not worry. I am.. used to it. It is unusual to you that I do not wear clothes.
Lithaladhwen: I don't really care, actually. I was publicly naked not long ago. It happens.
PapatymisonN: A bit. Though I doubt anyone will mind, unless they're... y'know...
Besyanteo: *he nods*
PapatymisonN: Strange. *wiggles fingers*
Besyanteo: *he looks to Card* "They" will have to go on wondering.
Besyanteo: And as you seem curious:
Besyanteo: I needed to pray. To do so in water was a priveledge.
PapatymisonN: IM: Oh crap. o.o
FFFan80: Midoku: *o_o*?
PapatymisonN: IM: Oh. I thought he was going to talk about his penis.
FFFan80: Midoku: ...AH
Besyanteo: (Quote that.)(
KnightsofSquare: (Oh, sinner, let's go down)
FFFan80: Midoku: ^_@ How nice for you, sir.
Deus Fio: Who were you praying to?
PapatymisonN: (I seem to be the only one who remains unaffiliated.)
Lithaladhwen: (Bes: You do it! It's a wiki!))
KnightsofSquare: (down in the river to pray)
Besyanteo: *quite Solemly* The mother of all, Ishtar. *he touches his brow*
Lithaladhwen: (Card=/=Everett McGill.)
Lithaladhwen: Well, she is that.
Besyanteo: (Heh. Kayo)
Deus Fio: *nod* Worthy cause, religion.
PapatymisonN: ... depends on how you fight for it.
Lithaladhwen: People who will be assholes will be assholes.
Lithaladhwen: *shrug*
Besyanteo: *Says nothing*
FFFan80: Stephan: *says something*
FFFan80: Stephan: ...shiney... o_o
Besyanteo: *he looks over, uncomprehending*
FFFan80: Midoku: .......
FFFan80: Midoku: o_ó?
FFFan80: Midoku: .....
FFFan80: Midoku: >.>
FFFan80: Midoku: ...
FFFan80: Midoku: <.<
Lithaladhwen: ...
Lithaladhwen: The hell?
FFFan80: Midoku: .....
Besyanteo: (Stephan: I am so looting your hair.)
FFFan80: Midoku: .....
FFFan80: Midoku: .......
FFFan80: Midoku: e\/e
Besyanteo: ... Is... something wrong?
Besyanteo: *he looks from Stephan to Mid and back again*
Lithaladhwen: Uh... I don't ...think so.
PapatymisonN: ... I don't know... <.<
Lithaladhwen: I think Stephan's just being weird again.
FFFan80: Stephan: You're shi...IEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOUWWWWW >_@
Lithaladhwen: ...
Deus Fio: I'm so confused.
FFFan80: Midoku: ^\/@ Sorry, he sometimes gets lost in thought.
Besyanteo: *he arches back, rising high into the air on his white tail,*
Lithaladhwen: ....Um. Right.
Besyanteo: *and covering his face with one arm, teeth bared... and then Mis speaks*
Besyanteo: (Mid*)
Lithaladhwen: Glad you're.... keeping track of.... him or something.
KnightsofSquare: (In game time is getting towards nightfall, right?)
Besyanteo: ... Please... Don't do that...
Lithaladhwen: IM: Come to think of it, who is this guy?
Lithaladhwen: *to the Naga* You all right, man?
FFFan80: Midoku: He will not any longer
FFFan80: Midoku: ...will you? e_e
FFFan80: Stephan: ...>_@; ...coursenotI'llbequiet...
Lithaladhwen: ....
Besyanteo: *he heads slowly back down to "ground level"* I am... I was very surprised.
Lithaladhwen: *frowns and casts a suspicious look at Midoku* What did you do?
FFFan80: Midoku: .....
FFFan80: Midoku: W..whatever do you mean? <_<;
Lithaladhwen: Dude. You did something and don't lie.
FFFan80: Stephan: *seems to be wincing, and holding the side of his chest rather protectively* @_<
Besyanteo: *he frowns, just a little* Ishtar is pained when we lie.
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, what he said. *scowl*
FFFan80: Midoku: ......
FFFan80: Midoku: ........
Lithaladhwen: About Ishtar being pained and stuff.
PapatymisonN: ... lots of gods get pained when we lie.
KnightsofSquare: (Ishtar's toe smarts like the dickens right now)
FFFan80: Midoku: ....>_>;
Deus Fio: Don't pain Ishtar.
Besyanteo: (=D!)
FFFan80: Midoku: <_<;
FFFan80: Stephan: ...I had a cramp.
PapatymisonN: ... I hear it's arousing for ... oh, what's his name... god of hate...
FFFan80: Stephan: Must've leaned the wrong way or somethin... sorry about that.
FFFan80: Midoku: o_o
Lithaladhwen: ...Hnnnn.... I don't believe you.
Besyanteo: *he spits! ... on the ground, not at someone, and looks at Card*
Besyanteo: Do not mention his name.
Lithaladhwen: He sucks balls. I knew a cleric under him once.
PapatymisonN: Sorry.
Lithaladhwen: *nods to Stephan* Remember Glinss't?
PapatymisonN: I like him about as much as you do.
Deus Fio: I ought to find me some religion. Someone to remind to watch my back when I'm fighting.
PapatymisonN: Seems to be a full and total ass.
FFFan80: (shit, I gotta go)
Lithaladhwen: (Seeya, Dave!)
Deus Fio: I know that's probably entirely the wrong attitude to have about finding religion, but I'm assuming that I'll know I've found the right one when I start thinking about it as more than a lucky charm.
Besyanteo: (Kay. Later. :o)
FFFan80: (assuming Midoku and Stephan are discussing wedded bliss or such =( )
FFFan80: (*cough*)
Lithaladhwen: (Heh.)
Besyanteo: (!!)
Besyanteo: (Name is picked. Whee.)
Kelne2261: (And now, in a feeble effort to fill the void left by Dave's departure...)
Besyanteo: *With them... 'talking'? He looks to the others*
FFFan80 has left the room.
Besyanteo: I forget my manners...
Kelne2261: *As if in further evidence of the weirdness of Doma, a man standing on a carpet pops into existence in mid-air. Like Joss, he's dressed unseasonably warmly, but unlike him, he has a scattering of ice crystals all over*
Lithaladhwen: .........
Besyanteo: I am Sohrab Hassan ibn Fudail ibn Halim
Kelne2261: *Kelne pages briefly through a book and nods to himself before snapping it shut and descending.*
Besyanteo: *he gives a sort of... torso nod to them* A pleasure meeting you all.
Lithaladhwen: *distracted by the random dude* ....Joss David Hunter. Nice to meet you.
Deus Fio: >_>
Deus Fio: 9_9 Nice, uh, magic carpet, boss.
Deus Fio: <_< Ake Tanner.
Besyanteo: *and... hey, new guy! ... With a magic carpet. Neat*
PapatymisonN: ... Sohrab. Nice.
Lithaladhwen: (I now know more about this dude's lineage than I expected.)
PapatymisonN: IM: I'm sure Shakti would love this fellow.
Besyanteo: (I should not have learned that bit of culture from 13th Warrior, but I did)
Lithaladhwen: (It happens.)
Besyanteo: Greetings, sir. *another sort of... torso nod. Or bow. It looks a little strang and stiff*
Kelne2261: Thank you. *A tone of mild amusement there. He spares the naga no more than a passing glance before dusting off the ice and shedding his outer layers of clothing*
Kelne2261: And greetings to you as well.
PapatymisonN: (Arabian niiiiiiiiiiights, like arabian daaaaaaaaaaaays...)
Lithaladhwen: Hey, see? I told you guys it was cold. *smirks*
Besyanteo: (Sohrab: *eats you*)
Lithaladhwen: (More often than not are hotter than hot in a lot of good ways.)
KnightsofSquare: (Perhapsss you'd like to ssseee how sssssnakelike he can be!)
Lithaladhwen: (*hugs Koss*)
Besyanteo: (XD)
Kelne2261: *Snorts* You should have seen the last place I was in. Ice as far as the eye could see.
PapatymisonN: (Man, what a kickass series.)
Lithaladhwen: (Koss wins again.)
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, well. compared to the last place that I was in Doma is cold.
KnightsofSquare: (He comes from the land of the ice and snow)
Besyanteo: ... *he shudders involuntarily*
Lithaladhwen: You all right, dude?
Besyanteo: We Naga hate the cold. This place sounds very unpleasant.
KnightsofSquare: (Bullshit. Half the nagas I've met are frost-speced)
Besyanteo: (=P)
Besyanteo: (Tell them to cross the Planes and come teach Gaera's Naga to handle the cold.)
Kelne2261: Yeah, not much in the way of people.
Kelne2261: From what I can tell, they left for warmer climates a long time ago.
Besyanteo: Sensible.
Lithaladhwen: Where're you from, Sohrab?
Besyanteo: (Bah, sorry about that)
Besyanteo: In your language, it would simply be "The Desert"
Lithaladhwen: Oh, okay. What brings you out here?
Besyanteo: A need to explore. To see many things.
Lithaladhwen: Totally fair, man. I can absolutely get that.
Lithaladhwen: What've you seen so far?
Besyanteo: The mountains between here and there, the grassy plains of this country, and this Capitol. A great many things indeed.
Lithaladhwen: That would be pretty neat. I went through part of the mountains once. It was beautiful, but I bet it was a little cold for you.
Besyanteo: Yes, but well worth it. A great many wonderful and surprising things are there.
Deus Fio: Not in summer it wouldn't be.
Deus Fio: I mean, for everyone but you, Joss.
Lithaladhwen: Hey! I wasn't always like this. I was fine when I was there.
Besyanteo: I thought I would be dead when I met with the orcs there.
Lithaladhwen: Oh, yeesh. That can't have been good.
Lithaladhwen: What happened?
Besyanteo: They were... different. Orcs raid my home all the time, so we know them well. It seems that they are not, as a race, all savage.
Besyanteo: (Seethe's bunch up in the Shumans. :o)
Lithaladhwen: (Joss doesn't know that. :o )
PapatymisonN: ... seems reasonable...
Lithaladhwen: That's always good to hear.
Deus Fio: (Man! Wish I was playing Seryntas now.)
Besyanteo: (True!)
Lithaladhwen: I mean, my uncle always bitched about elves being this or that, but I didn't really buy it.
PapatymisonN: I hear there's one who ... at least WAS in service to Baron.
Lithaladhwen: I mean, races are still people.
Deus Fio: (Seryntas was totally part of a prophecy of theirs.)
Kelne2261: *Nods thoughtfully*
Besyanteo: (Seryntas: They even got the part where I burped the Elemaer Lexicon right!)
Besyanteo: *he nods to Joss!*
Deus Fio: (Actually, Seryntas being at all attached to Elemaer has been retconned.)
Lithaladhwen: Cuz, y'know. Elves probably have all sorts of weird ideas about dwarves, too.
Lithaladhwen: He had to concede that one.
Lithaladhwen: Otherwise I'd have to believe what people said about his people, and he didn't like that so much.
Deus Fio: (Partly because Elemaer no longer had room for Gratuitous Porting of Creator's Avatar)
Kelne2261: You get enough history behind you, and you're bound to have a few stereotypes take root.
Besyanteo: (Whee!)
Deus Fio: (I couldn't very well tell people they can't make offworlder characters in Elemaer if I was playing one, could I?)
Lithaladhwen: (Truth.)
Besyanteo: (Blar. Getting late. Atleast for anyone who doesn't know when he's going to wake up.)
Besyanteo: *he streatches a bit*
PapatymisonN: IM: ... cool.
Besyanteo: I must find a place to spend the night. I hope to see you all again.
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, sure. See you around.
Deus Fio: You have a dwarven uncle?
Lithaladhwen: (G'night, Bes! Thanks for coming!)
Deus Fio: (Later!)
Lithaladhwen: Well, not uncle uncle.
Besyanteo: *and, off he slithers!*
Lithaladhwen: But kind of.
Kelne2261: *Nods his own farewell*
Besyanteo: (Sure! Night!)
Deus Fio: You know, I have extra space.
Kelne2261: (Night.)
Besyanteo has left the room.
Deus Fio: =That explains why you speak the language then, I guess.=
Lithaladhwen: =His name was Dsedh Mancutter.=
Deus Fio: =I learned it because ten years ago, that was the thing to do when you were searching for a career in architecture or engineering.=
Lithaladhwen: Heh.
Lithaladhwen: My family was blacksmiths.
Lithaladhwen: Were blacksmiths?
Lithaladhwen: Hm.
Lithaladhwen: Were.
Deus Fio: Uh. I'd say "were", I guess.
Deus Fio: I ain't not so good upon the grammerin'.
Lithaladhwen: Heh.
Deus Fio: *grammarin'
Lithaladhwen: S'okay. You speaks fine Common pretty good, ah reckon.
Lithaladhwen: Ah don't have no trouble understandin' ya.
Deus Fio: No unhoping I wouldn't not.
Kelne2261: *Shakes his head in despair at this rampant attack of hideous grammar and completes the packing process, moving off with a final nod to the pair*
Lithaladhwen: *little wave to the departing Kelne*
Lithaladhwen: (Did I miss anything after Kelne entered text?)
Deus Fio: (Yes. Everyone died.)
Deus Fio: (No, you're fine.)
PapatymisonN: (I live, but fail to see where I can interject.)
Kelne2261: (Rocks fell.)
PapatymisonN: ... find learning the new language hard?
Deus Fio: Huh?
PapatymisonN: Any new language. Was it tough figuring it out?
Lithaladhwen: Dwarven can be a real jawcracker. But I was really young when Dsedh taught me.
Deus Fio: I studied like a demon.
Lithaladhwen: You must've. You're old.
Lithaladhwen: I mean, comparatively.
PapatymisonN: ... *snicker*
Lithaladhwen: Laugh it up, old man.
Lithaladhwen: *grin*
Deus Fio: Yeah, whatever. Eat your vegetables and punch four people a day and you can grow up to be juuuust like me.
Lithaladhwen: I don't punch people. I mean, not generally.
PapatymisonN: ... Well, if Anwell's time is the correct time, I'm VERY old...
PapatymisonN: Centuries.
PapatymisonN: That's freaky.
Deus Fio: Really? I do it for a living.
Deus Fio: >_> Huh, you don't look Elvish.
Lithaladhwen: (Cardinal: *looks mildly Druish*)
PapatymisonN: I'm not.
PapatymisonN: ... it's a time travel thing, maybe.
Lithaladhwen: ...Dude, you time travelled?
Lithaladhwen: *looks impressed*
PapatymisonN: I didn't... THINK so...
Deus Fio: Oh, but you haven't, like, lived a couple hundred years.
Deus Fio: You kinda skipped around?
PapatymisonN: That's it.
Lithaladhwen: Huh. Interesting.
PapatymisonN: See, this... unsavory fellow we met along our journeys, Joss and I...
PapatymisonN: He's from my world.
PapatymisonN: But from CENTURIES in the future, from my perspective.
PapatymisonN: So... I don't know.
Lithaladhwen: Hm. Weird.
Deus Fio: I see.
Lithaladhwen: I don't know much about time travel, and only know a little bit about the other spatial magic and stuff.
Lithaladhwen: Not my area.
Deus Fio: I make a living teaching people how to hit other people.
FFFan80 has entered the room.
Lithaladhwen: (*attaches to Dave's leg*)
Lithaladhwen: (Dave. Did you ever know that you're my hero?)
FFFan80: (owowowowowow)
PapatymisonN: Well, yes. I know a LITTLE time magic, but... this... out of my experience.
FFFan80: (...>.o; why?)
Lithaladhwen: (Because you came back.)
FFFan80: (...I see things have stalled a tad? o.o; )
Deus Fio: Sometimes I teach people how to avoid being hit by other people.
Deus Fio: Oh, and sometimes I try to make money by going out and hitting other people myself.
Lithaladhwen: Seems like a good way to roll.
Lithaladhwen: I make money warping things with fire and occasionally doing other stuff.
Deus Fio: Sometimes the people I teach to hit people also make money by going out and hitting other people, and sometimes some of that money goes to my hitting-people school.
Deus Fio: Which needs that money really badly or we're going to lose our building because my lawyer is the worst kind of snake.
Lithaladhwen: ....what's going on?
FFFan80: *...somewhere, the naga from earlier sneazes*
Deus Fio: Shady business dealings, with me and my dojo caught in the crossfire.
Deus Fio: We just bought a new building, see.
PapatymisonN: ... huh.
Deus Fio: And from what I know, the price I was told I would be needing to pay could maybe see the price I actually had to pay if it got up on something tall with a spyglass and scanned the horizon.
PapatymisonN: In other words, you're being grifted.
Lithaladhwen: ...
Deus Fio: Interesting other words, but sure.
Deus Fio: Grifted sounds about right.
Lithaladhwen: You want me to blow up someone's kneecaps?
Lithaladhwen: I can, y'know. I'm very precise.
Deus Fio: Thanks for the offer.
PapatymisonN: ... sounds like a good plan...
Deus Fio: But trust me, if violence were called for, I would have been violent already.
PapatymisonN: I bet he works cheap.
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, but I can do violent things nobody else can.
Lithaladhwen: And they won't catch me. They can't catch you if you're on fire.
Deus Fio: I've read books on being violent. I've followed diagrams that illustrate being violent.
Lithaladhwen: (AAAHAHAHAHAH I SAID IT.)
Lithaladhwen: (If you're on fire.)
Deus Fio: I've gone to seminars and discussion groups about the proper way to be violent.
Lithaladhwen: Yes, but can you blow things up with your mind.
Deus Fio: No, I'll admit that.
Deus Fio: My mental blowing-up powers are severely lacking.
Lithaladhwen: You should try it. It feels great.
PapatymisonN: Implosions are just as good, too.
Deus Fio: You ever snap a man's neck with your bare hands?
Lithaladhwen: No. Feel great?
Deus Fio: I haven't done it successfully yet.
Deus Fio: I know the theory, but the torque required...it's tough.
Deus Fio: Plus I don't tend to be in situations when I have to snap a neck.
Deus Fio: Now, breaking a wrist. That I've done.
Deus Fio: That's fun if you're into sadism.
PapatymisonN: ... snapping a neck... snapping a neck...
Deus Fio: I mean, I'm not sadistic.
Deus Fio: But if I was, I'd just go around doing that to people.
Deus Fio: Especially because I know a few ways to break a wrist that start with the normal handshake position.
PapatymisonN: Nope, never snapped a neck.
PapatymisonN: Now slashing throats....
Lithaladhwen: *frowns*
Lithaladhwen: IM: Burning down houses. Suffocation. Blunt trauma from falling debris. Fatal burns.
Lithaladhwen: IM: Bodies charred down to splinters of bone.
Deus Fio: I've broken a lot of bones.
Deus Fio: Some of them were mine.
Lithaladhwen: I haven't broken any bones, really. Not... in fights.
Deus Fio: Yeah, but you got your entire body burned away in the Plane of Fire.
Deus Fio: That's sort of like breaking a bone, except your entire body is burned away.
Lithaladhwen: *cracks a smile* Yeah, I guess.
Lithaladhwen: Wasn't so bad. It's kind of cool, actually. Just... taking some getting used to.
Lithaladhwen: That and some... other stuff. Not sure how I feel about all of it yet.
PapatymisonN: ... I'm sure you'll feel good.
PapatymisonN: I imagine being connected to an entire plane is... eyeopening, to say the least.
Lithaladhwen: It was kind of weird. I can't feel it so much now.
Lithaladhwen: But I could when I was there.
PapatymisonN: ...
PapatymisonN: Could you go back?
Lithaladhwen: Well... yeah.
Lithaladhwen: I could.
Deus Fio: Uh. Leave me out of any attempts to tear open a hole in reality.
Lithaladhwen: I could end up doing a lot of things.
PapatymisonN: ... interesting... would it be two-way transit or would you need someone to open a rift again?
Lithaladhwen: Well...
Lithaladhwen: I don't really want to talk about it.
Deus Fio: Yeah. Um. I'm gonna get going.
Lithaladhwen: It's... yeah.
PapatymisonN: *nod* No problem.
Deus Fio: You guys have fun with flaming planes of existence.
Lithaladhwen: Seeya, man. *little salute to Ake*
Lithaladhwen: I will. I won't ask anybody else to.
PapatymisonN: Have a good night.
Deus Fio: =May your beard always be covered in foam.=
Lithaladhwen: *snickers*
Deus Fio: Night.
Deus Fio: *Ake walks off, toward his problems.*
Deus Fio: (Night, guys.)\
Deus Fio: *)
Lithaladhwen: (G'night! Thanks for coming.)
PapatymisonN: (Night!)
Deus Fio has left the room.
FFFan80: (Hn)
Lithaladhwen: (What?)
FFFan80: (trying to decide, given the time, if hopping back in is wise)
Lithaladhwen: (I'm still here and so is Charles.)
FFFan80: (well, yeah, but he's on crazy canadien time =()
PapatymisonN: (Which means I'm two hours BEHIND you.)
Lithaladhwen: (I'm on crazy Indianer time.)
FFFan80: (guess I can do something for a short bit)
PapatymisonN: ... so, you want to get a drink? Non-alcoholic, obviously, but still...
Lithaladhwen: ....sure.
FFFan80: (...argh, or not >_< )
Lithaladhwen: But I... like....
Lithaladhwen: (We're not going just yet.)
FFFan80: (as in, need to get of pc =/ )
Lithaladhwen: I don't know. I think I'm still not quite adjusted to it, y'know?
PapatymisonN: You like...?
FFFan80: (*off even)
Lithaladhwen: (Ah, too bad. Catch you another time, then.)
FFFan80: (*nod*)
FFFan80: (I look forward to showing the aftermath =( )
Lithaladhwen: I could test the proof of your booze, though. Or something.
Lithaladhwen: (Oh my.)
Lithaladhwen: (Aftermath?)
FFFan80: ( =D Night! )
PapatymisonN: ... test the proof. Really. *smirking playfully*
FFFan80 has left the room.
Lithaladhwen: Well, yeah. Get some Enchufan black powder in it, and I'll see if it burns.
Lithaladhwen: Anyway. I don't want to eat or drink anything right now. I tried but it wasn't... right.
Lithaladhwen: Maybe it will be later.
PapatymisonN: ...
PapatymisonN: Hmmm... well, it makes sense that you wouldn't really need solid food anymore...
PapatymisonN: Mind if I enact a minor experiment?
Lithaladhwen: ...That depends.
PapatymisonN: I know it won't hurt.
PapatymisonN: I simply want to toss a little fire your way, see what happens.
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, hold on. Let me take off my coat and crap
Lithaladhwen: *pulls off his coat to reveal that under that he's wearing a little denim jacket with a flannel shirt under that with a t-shirt under that*
Lithaladhwen: *finally gets down to the t-shirt*
Lithaladhwen: Damn. Hurry up.
Lithaladhwen: *shivers*
PapatymisonN: *casts a simple fire spell, half strength, Joss' way*
PapatymisonN: (Should I bother to roll?)
Lithaladhwen: (No.)
Lithaladhwen: *Joss puts out a hand and kind of... sucks it in.*
Lithaladhwen: *grin*
Lithaladhwen: Now that I do like.
PapatymisonN: ... I thought so.
PapatymisonN: Care for something bigger?
Lithaladhwen: Sure.
PapatymisonN: *Full strength Fire spell! Go!*
Lithaladhwen: *You're casting it on a fire elemental! He absorbs it!*
Lithaladhwen: *Grass around his feet is a little singed, though.*
PapatymisonN: Feel better?
Lithaladhwen: I didn't really feel bad before. I just need to figure out the whole "eating or not" thing.
Lithaladhwen: I'm probably just not done changing. Too soon to tell. *nod*
PapatymisonN: Alright. It shall all be shown.
PapatymisonN: I just hope you don't turn into a little red and orange tornado, like I've seen in... oh... that book that Daniel Hyral likes, I can't remember...
Lithaladhwen: ...
PapatymisonN: It's fiction, don't worry.
Lithaladhwen: What the hell are you talking about?
PapatymisonN: IM: Right?
PapatymisonN: Oh, he absolutely loves some book about fantasy versions of Baron and Doma...
PapatymisonN: I think it was the final one in the series.
Lithaladhwen: I see.
Lithaladhwen: And there are fire elementals in it?
Lithaladhwen: *grabs his layers of clothes and starts putting them back on*
PapatymisonN: Yeah. They're just little red tornadoes.
Lithaladhwen: I think that's wrong.
PapatymisonN: ... but then, the air elementals are little WHITE tornadoes, water elementals are little BLUE tornadoes...
Lithaladhwen: ....Yeah, okay.
PapatymisonN: Yeah, OK.
PapatymisonN: Still want to try solid food?
Lithaladhwen: Already did. I think it's not a good time.
Lithaladhwen: In fact, I should probably go check in with Gunther.
Lithaladhwen: He's really picky about it now. Gets all worried like an old lady.
Lithaladhwen: Going to give himself grey hair.
PapatymisonN: Alright. Take care of yourself, my friend. *extended hand*
Lithaladhwen: *hesitates... and then offers his uncomfortably-warm-freakboy-hand*
Lithaladhwen: You too.
Lithaladhwen: See you around, man.
PapatymisonN: *knows what to expect by now...* Night. ^_^
Lithaladhwen: *heads off toward his place of work -slash- living space*
Lithaladhwen: </Joss>
PapatymisonN: </Cardinal>
Lithaladhwen: </RP>
Lithaladhwen: There. Feel better?
PapatymisonN: *curls into a ball, sucks his thumb* Yes ma'am.
Lithaladhwen: Bedways is rightways for me, I think.
PapatymisonN: I'm watching Spider-Man Unlimited.
PapatymisonN: There's something wrong with me.
PapatymisonN: Sleep well, freaky lady.
Lithaladhwen: *salute*
PapatymisonN: *poof*
