(3:09:28 PM) You have just entered room "planewalkers."
(3:09:33 PM) besyanteo has entered the room.
(3:11:17 PM) ChristianCord has entered the room.
ChristianCord (3:11:25 PM): (ullo)
besyanteo (3:12:18 PM): (Hiya!)
Idran1701 (3:12:53 PM): (Shall we begin? :O)
besyanteo (3:13:11 PM): (Sure.)
ChristianCord (3:13:12 PM): (Ready when you are)
ChristianCord (3:13:22 PM): (oh snap, hold on, I'll get another color)
besyanteo (3:13:23 PM): (*fix*)
ChristianCord (3:13:29 PM): (:O )
Idran1701 (3:15:11 PM): *Leaving the restaurant, Magpie heads back towards the town center, Lorraine keeping
at its side*
besyanteo (3:15:34 PM): *she's smiling a little, her mind off of the job finally.* So.
Idran1701 (3:15:40 PM): *Aaron clings to Lorraine's shoulder, attention taken by his various surroundings*
besyanteo (3:15:57 PM): What kind of garment are you thinking about making?
ChristianCord (3:16:02 PM): *Magpie, of course, isn't smiling much, still looking as horrified as
ever, which can at times be disturbing. You get used to it, of course*
ChristianCord (3:16:54 PM): *The construct looks at Lorraine and speaks slowly* I was...
considering my options. It is my belief that a cloak would be a simple and safe choice. I
do not experience cold like you, so it would be mostly esthetic.
besyanteo (3:17:11 PM): That seems sensible.
besyanteo (3:17:34 PM): Have you given any thought to trim?
ChristianCord (3:17:49 PM):
...trim?
ChristianCord (3:17:59 PM):
*The questionmark is
hard to distinguish, but
it's there.*
besyanteo (3:18:10 PM): *pulls her
own brand new cloak closer,
and shows off it's white hem
along the bottom by way of
example*
besyanteo (3:18:33 PM):
Sometimes a cloak will have
details or a different kind of
fabric along it's edges. It's not
necesary, though.
ChristianCord (3:19:37 PM):
*Magpie examines it and
gives a slight nod* It was
not something I had
considered. I have not
made clothing before,
only weapons, and
repairs to furniture.
besyanteo (3:20:48 PM): For a
beginner it might be easier to
keep it plain for now, and go
back later when you can get
someone to help you out.
besyanteo (3:21:02 PM): I'm not
really a seamstress myself,
unfortunately.
ChristianCord (3:22:50 PM):
*Magpie nods again and
seems to give a little
shrug. Its shoulders rise
only, barely an inch, and
do it so fastly you have
to watch it to notice...
copied behaviour,
perhaps?* I will try. My
hands are large, but I
have some times done
detail work and I believe
I will manage
somewhat... have you
made a cloak before,
Lorraine?
ChristianCord (3:23:02 PM): ...Or
any other clothes?
besyanteo (3:24:13 PM): No; The
most I've done is mend a holes
in my pants and shirts when I
needed to.
besyanteo (3:24:22 PM): (brb)
ChristianCord (3:25:20 PM):
*The construct considers
her words for a while but
doesn't say anything,
instead glancing down at
the small slip it was
carrying*
besyanteo (3:26:11 PM): (back)
ChristianCord (3:26:35 PM):
(welcome back :-D)
Idran1701 (3:26:40 PM): (Indeed!)
besyanteo (3:28:14 PM): (thanks!)
besyanteo (3:29:42 PM): So... I'm
pretty surprised. I thought for
sure we were going to have to
fight Oringr.
besyanteo (3:29:59 PM): Or that
other mercenary group.
ChristianCord (3:30:51 PM):
*Magpie's eyes flicker for
a while before it speaks*
...Indeed. I may have
appeared somwhat...
eager, to pursuit such a
course, for which I
apologize.
ChristianCord (3:31:27 PM): It is
not easy for me to
conceive of solutions
outside of the threat of
force... I am not.... good...
at speaking to people.
besyanteo (3:32:26 PM): Eh.
There's a palce for that, too.
besyanteo (3:32:47 PM): I'd just
like to avoid it while we're in
one of the most uptight places
in all the Planes.
ChristianCord (3:33:32 PM): I
understand. It would be
bad to disrupt the order
of Mechanicus?
ChristianCord (3:33:37 PM):
Like... your friend...
besyanteo (3:34:43 PM): Only in
the sense that I don't enjoy jail
time.
ChristianCord (3:35:17 PM): I
see.
ChristianCord (3:35:35 PM): I
have not been in jail, so I
could not imagine what it
would be like. I
apologize.
besyanteo (3:35:59 PM): Neither
have I, honestly. It's a
conceptual worry, really.
besyanteo (3:36:09 PM): (bler)
ChristianCord (3:36:40 PM): I
see...
besyanteo (3:37:13 PM): (... I just
realized that Lorraine's new
friend was at that table earlier.
Or I think he was.)
Idran1701 (3:37:32 PM): (Nah, it
was just the party.)
ChristianCord (3:37:47 PM): I
believe I can understand
that. But it is not
something I can relate to
very well...
besyanteo (3:38:20 PM): *she
nods* Don't worry about it too
much. For now, we're in the
clear.
besyanteo (3:38:41 PM): (Also
also, we heard word about the
priestess being captured or
something, right?)
Idran1701 (3:39:05 PM): (Zant got
a message about something
and ran off, but you don't
know the details.)
ChristianCord (3:39:53 PM): That
is a relief. I did not know
you were interested in
the rules and laws of this
place, however, Lorraine.
If you had told me
before, I would have
gladly informed you of
what occurred as I
retrieved our passes.
besyanteo (3:40:25 PM): (He did
tell them before.)
besyanteo (3:40:50 PM): (He was
asked and stuff
besyanteo (3:40:51 PM): )*
besyanteo (3:40:55 PM): (Right
IDran?)
Idran1701 (3:41:02 PM): (Yep)
besyanteo (3:42:35 PM): (Does
MAgpie remember doing
that?)
ChristianCord (3:43:08 PM):
(Quite possibly, but Zant
went alone and did not
require assistance)
besyanteo (3:44:45 PM): I think
that you did tell me about that,
actually, and the others too. I
got all freaked out, thinking that
the city officials were goin to
object to our reason for being
here.
besyanteo (3:45:29 PM): Which
has been unfounded, so far
ChristianCord (3:46:12 PM): You
were frightened? *the
construct seems rather
surprised at this* Ah yes,
I seem to remember
that... *the lights in it's
eyes flicker for a moment
in silence* It had not
occurred to me to keep
our objective unkown to
the people of this city.
Idran1701 (3:47:22 PM): *And
speaking of city officials, the
two reach the entrance to the
town center. There's the sound
of a fairly large crowd within,
people heading in and out from
the building at a fairly
reasonable rate.*
besyanteo (3:48:34 PM): Well, no
one told you to keep it a
secret. Anyway, is this it?
ChristianCord (3:48:51 PM): It
would seem the amount
of people applying today
are even larger than
when I was here the last
time. *it nods slowly*
Yes, this is the place I
was shown before.
ChristianCord (3:49:10 PM):
(Whether or not there're
more people, Magpie is
trying to make a joke
:-D)
besyanteo (3:51:30 PM): *She
doesn't pick up on it at all*
Alright then. In we go!
besyanteo (3:51:38 PM): *she
heads on over*
ChristianCord (3:52:10 PM):
Very well. *Magpie
follows after*
ChristianCord (3:52:22 PM): (*is
not at all surprised* :-D)
Idran1701 (3:53:14 PM): *Inside,
the main room almost seems
too large for the building
outside. Dozens of people mill
about in various levels of
irritation. Near the entrance, a
small box holds a number of
square slips of parchment.*
ChristianCord (3:54:22 PM): We
shall grab one of these
small slips of paper, as it
represents our position
in the queue *Magpie
needlessly tells
Lorraine*. Then we shall
calmly wait for our turn,
and proceed to the clerk
who calls out the
number printed on our
slip. Then we dispose of
the slip as we adress the
clerk with our issues.
ChristianCord (3:54:41 PM):
Most likely, we will be
sent to another section
of the building, where we
may or may not receive
another slip of paper and
wait for our turn.
ChristianCord (3:55:25 PM): Did
you understand all that
Lorraine?
besyanteo (3:56:00 PM): >.>
besyanteo (3:56:21 PM): ... That
sounds incredibly boring. But
yes.
ChristianCord (3:56:38 PM):
Boring?
besyanteo (3:57:28 PM): Well, yes,
but don't worry about it.
Boring isn't something new to
me.
besyanteo (3:57:37 PM): IM:
*memories of studying
cantrips.*
Idran1701 (3:57:45 PM): (Haha.
:D)
ChristianCord (3:58:16 PM):
*Magpie, having spent a
couple of hundred years
guarding a camp area of
a hundred square feet,
has no idea what Boring
means :-D)
ChristianCord (3:58:27 PM): **
Idran1701 (3:58:45 PM): ("And this
is how you make someone
slightly tired. Now remember,
you will _never_ use this.")
ChristianCord (4:01:03 PM): I
understand
Idran1701 (4:01:22 PM): *one of
them grabs the first parchment:
"374"*
Idran1701 (4:01:50 PM): *and the
clerk at the front speaks
up:* 335?
besyanteo (4:02:00 PM): ...
*glances at their number*
ChristianCord (4:02:09 PM): We
are about 40 numbers
away, so there is no
need to feel rushed.
besyanteo (4:02:15 PM): Well, that
doesn't seem too bad.
ChristianCord (4:02:21 PM): It
can take a few hours, I
believe.
ChristianCord (4:02:24 PM):
*flicker*
besyanteo (4:02:38 PM): ... Is
something wrong?
besyanteo (4:02:42 PM): Your
eyes.... did something.
ChristianCord (4:03:03 PM):
*looks at Lorraine* ...No.
There is nothing wrong,
that I can sense. What
were they doing?
besyanteo (4:03:29 PM): They
went dark for just a moment,
and then became bright again
ChristianCord (4:04:05 PM): I
was not aware that that
occurred. I was merely
contemplating the
prospect of telling you in
slight exaggeration of
the time remaining until
our number would be
called out.
besyanteo (4:05:25 PM): ... Were
you? *she smirks*
ChristianCord (4:05:49 PM):
Yes... is something
amusing?
besyanteo (4:09:02 PM): A bit,
yes.
besyanteo (4:09:18 PM): *she
looks around. Are there places
to sit?*
Idran1701 (4:09:24 PM): *there
are!*
Idran1701 (4:09:38 PM): *Mostly
filled, but there's a free one
not too far as someone
heads up to the desk.*
ChristianCord (4:10:29 PM):
*Magpie nods to itself a
little* That is good, I was
worried you would not
appreciate my attempt at
humour.
besyanteo (4:11:38 PM): *she
takes a seat!*
Idran1701 (4:12:03 PM): *Aaron
ruffles his wings,
discomforted some by the
crowd, but keeping quiet for
Lorraine's sake*
ChristianCord (4:12:37 PM): *the
construct walks after a
bit, but stands a few feet
away, obviously not
discomforted by the
crowded room*
besyanteo (4:13:02 PM): IM: You
could always stand on
MAgpie. He's well taller than
anyone here, so that's
something at least.
besyanteo (4:13:20 PM): IM: That
and it would make me giggle.
Idran1701 (4:13:50 PM):
...*Aaron stares at
Magpie!*
ChristianCord (4:14:07 PM):
*Magpie is minding its
own business!*
ChristianCord (4:14:25 PM):
*looking as content as a
warforged can. Which is
to say, not very much*
Idran1701 (4:14:47 PM): ...*he
flaps up over to Magpie's
shoulder, and looks back to
Lorraine*
ChristianCord (4:16:05 PM):
*Magpie turns it head
slightly and glances up at
Aaron* ...hello, Aaron.
(I'm pretty sure the
name's popped up one
time or another)
besyanteo (4:16:21 PM): (Almost
definitely)
Idran1701 (4:16:26 PM): *he
stares back at Magpie,
cocking his head*
besyanteo (4:16:29 PM): *she
giggles a little.*
ChristianCord (4:17:35 PM):
*Magpie's eyes flicker
slightly and it raises a
hand a little higher up*
Perhaps it is more
comfortable for you to sit
on one of my fingers?
Idran1701 (4:17:57 PM): *he
seems happy to have
amused Lorraine!*
Idran1701 (4:18:10 PM): *and he
stares at Magpie's fingers
curiously*
ChristianCord (4:19:13 PM):
*Magpie turns slightly to
Lorraine* Does he
understand if I speak to
him?
besyanteo (4:20:46 PM): He does,
through me, and I can answer
for him, but he's only been with
me for a few years... we can't
explain some of the more
complex concepts to each
other yet.
besyanteo (4:21:05 PM): (Or, I
think he has like int 8-9 at the
moment~)
Idran1701 (4:21:13 PM): (6,
actually :O)
besyanteo (4:21:17 PM): (ha)
Idran1701 (4:21:43 PM): *he
prods at Magpie's finger a
little with his beak, testing
it, before climbing over*
ChristianCord (4:22:10 PM): I
see. Could you tell him
that I believe it is better
for his claws...* Magpie
pauses as Aaron climbs
over, the light in its eyes
growing almost white
before fading once more
to green*
besyanteo (4:22:51 PM):
*watching*
ChristianCord (4:22:53 PM): It
would seem that is
unnecessary... *slowly,
very slowly, the
construct raises its other
hand and strokes the
bird over its back*
Idran1701 (4:23:31 PM): *he
clucks a little, closing his
eyes; Lorraine can tell he's
enjoying this*
besyanteo (4:23:56 PM): *she
smiles*
ChristianCord (4:26:14 PM): He
is very friendly, Lorraine,
as seem most animals I
have recently met. It is a
new, interesting
experience. *the
construct continues to
pet the little bird, keeping
completely despite
having a full-grown
raptor sitting on its
extended index-finger*
besyanteo (4:27:02 PM): We've
seen how gentle you are with
them. *she just watches the
pair of them for now*
Idran1701 (4:28:41 PM): (And
timeskip?)
ChristianCord (4:28:43 PM): I
enjoy the presence of
life. Animals are simple,
easy to understand and
appreciate attention. But
just being here, amongst
so many others, is a very
pleasant experience for
me.
ChristianCord (4:28:48 PM):
(sure)
Idran1701 (4:29:05 PM): (Ah, just
thought CI was done. But if
you're still good for it, then
sure.)
ChristianCord (4:29:27 PM):
(Depends on whether
Lorraine wants to hear
more or not :-D)
besyanteo (4:29:29 PM): (I'm good
for a timeskip)
ChristianCord (4:29:40 PM):
(Then timeskip =) )
Idran1701 (4:30:14 PM):
(Lorraine's bored with
Magpie, got it. :P)
Idran1701 (4:30:56 PM): *An
hour or two pass by, as their
number grows ever closer.
Aaron falls asleep before
long, tucking his head into
his wing as he clings to
Magpie's finger.*
Idran1701 (4:31:17 PM): *and
finally:* 374?
ChristianCord (4:32:02 PM):
*Magpie seems to
actually stir itself, and
turns to Lorraine* That is
our number.
besyanteo (4:32:19 PM): *she
perks up, half starting. Which
conveniently ought to wake
Aaron* Yup.
Idran1701 (4:32:40 PM): *It does!
He is vaguely irritated; that
was a good sleep :(*
besyanteo (4:33:41 PM): *she
stands and heads for the
counter*
ChristianCord (4:33:46 PM): I
shall watch Aaron for
you, if you wish
Lorraine. *does so*
besyanteo (4:34:15 PM): Oh, sure
if you like. Not coming with
me?
besyanteo (4:34:49 PM): IM:
Sorry, you can go back to
napping if you'd like.
ChristianCord (4:35:32 PM): I
have already gone
through the procedures,
so I would not wish to
rob you of the
experience. If you want
to, I can come with you.
Idran1701 (4:36:01 PM): *It
doesn't seem like it'll be
hard, he still feels a bit
sleepy. He's drooping off
again already, in fact.*
besyanteo (4:36:33 PM): No, that's
fine I suppose.
besyanteo (4:36:42 PM): (Now I
need to remember why we
came here)
ChristianCord (4:37:15 PM): (We
are getting very thick
manuals filled with laws,
rules and regulations!
:-D)
Idran1701 (4:37:15 PM): (Picking
up the law books)
Idran1701 (4:37:46 PM): (They
each got tickets for which
books can be exchanged :O)
ChristianCord (4:38:40 PM):
(Does Magpie need to
hand it in, or can
Lorraine take both?)
Idran1701 (4:39:04 PM): (The
latter should be fine.)
besyanteo (4:39:27 PM): *has the
tickets!*
besyanteo (4:39:43 PM): *OVer at
the counter* Hi, I'm here to
pick up some law books?
Idran1701 (4:40:03 PM): *glances
up* Name?
besyanteo (4:40:53 PM): (Hm.
Was her last name
DiHammermoore in this
setting?)
Idran1701 (4:40:57 PM): (Yep)
besyanteo (4:41:30 PM): Lorraine
DiHammermoore. I also have
tickets with me to pick up
books for several others in my
group.
Idran1701 (4:41:59 PM): *she
nods, writing down
Lorraine's name and reason
for visit on a scroll of such*
Idran1701 (4:42:23 PM):
Downstairs through the
right door one level. Third
hallway on your left, fifth
office on your right.
ChristianCord (4:44:28 PM):
*Magpie watches from
where its standing,
petting Aaron again*
besyanteo (4:44:33 PM): *she
nods* Thank you. IM: I bet
Asp would be lost here
instantly.
besyanteo (4:44:53 PM):
**downstairs! Through the
right door!*
Idran1701 (4:44:55 PM): *Aaron
is growing sleepier; Asp is a
silly person*
besyanteo (4:46:34 PM): *Third
hallwya on the left!*
besyanteo (4:46:46 PM): *Fifth
office on the right!*
besyanteo (4:46:54 PM): *Do the
hokey pokey and wait no.*
besyanteo (4:47:05 PM): *She'll go
right on in*
Idran1701 (4:47:07 PM): (Sorry
too late that's now canon)
besyanteo (4:47:15 PM): ( :O )
ChristianCord (4:47:21 PM): *is
pretty certainly
obstructing some very
important person's way,
but the construct seems
oblivious*
ChristianCord (4:47:32 PM):
(Yes! If you don't do the
hokey pokey, you can't
unlock the portal!)
Idran1701 (4:47:43 PM): *Inside!
There's...a very big machine
that seems to be pouring
heat. Impressively, not a
single drop of heat can be
felt outside the doorway.*
besyanteo (4:48:22 PM): (Heat is
not a liquid)
Idran1701 (4:48:24 PM): *It's a
huge mass of metal that
shoots out steam from small
valves, with pieces of
parchment visible whirring
about within its
mechanism.*
besyanteo (4:48:26 PM): (now*)
Idran1701 (4:48:34 PM): (It can
be modelled as one!)
besyanteo (4:48:51 PM): ...
besyanteo (4:48:56 PM): *Is there
an operator?*
Idran1701 (4:49:05 PM): (Also
*gives Lorraine one bottle
of cask-aged heat from
1976*)
besyanteo (4:49:51 PM): (Lorraine:
Oooooh, vintage.)
Idran1701 (4:50:51 PM): (Sorry,
one sec.)
ChristianCord (4:50:52 PM): (:-(
)
Idran1701 (4:52:10 PM): (Sorry
about that.)
Idran1701 (4:52:20 PM): (Also
why is Christian frownieing
:( )
Idran1701 (4:52:49 PM): *There
are two! A gnome and
a...well, it's a thing.*
Idran1701 (4:53:01 PM): *A
big...metal...sphere thing
with ten tentacles spaced
around it, standing on a pair
of stumpy legs.*
ChristianCord (4:53:08 PM):
(Magpie wants some
bottled heat too)
Idran1701 (4:53:18 PM): (*gives
it some*)
ChristianCord (4:53:26 PM):
(Hooray, you made it
happy)
besyanteo (4:54:02 PM): Er.
Pardon me. Do either of you
work here?
Idran1701 (4:55:47 PM): *They
both whirl, staring at her.
The Gnome wears a leather
apron, a pair of darkened
goggles, and heavy ear
coverings, while the...sphere
thing watches her with an
array of eyes spaced about
its massive mouth.*
Idran1701 (4:55:51 PM): (Sphere
thing!

Idran1701 (4:56:33 PM): *the
gnome's the first to speak*
Aye, that we do, miss! And
what are you here for?

ChristianCord (4:56:58 PM):

besyanteo (4:57:02 PM): *she
proffers the tickets* Books.
besyanteo (4:57:26 PM): (Also, I
like to think that low level
Shada would have screamed
and ran)
Idran1701 (4:57:32 PM): *the thing
plucks them from her hands
with a tin-plated pseudopod,
and holds them up to one of its
eyes*

ChristianCord (5:02:18 PM):
*Magpie watches the bird
curiously*
Idran1701 (5:02:40 PM): *the
gnome hopes up onto a small
platform, working a number of
valves, switches, and whatnot
under the thing's supervision*
Idran1701 (5:03:03 PM): *the level
of heat shoots up suddenly,
and a loud clanging picks up,
like Lorraine was standing only
twenty feet from a church bell*
besyanteo (5:03:41 PM): *she
covers her ears*
Idran1701 (5:04:17 PM): *the
workings speed up immensely,
and she can see massive panels
flipping up and down within the
workings, banging up and
down wildly*
ChristianCord (5:04:44 PM):
*speaking to the bird
while doing nothing in
particular* I wonder if
Lorraine is meeting
someone like that
elf-woman. I am certain
she is finding the whole
experience rather
relaxing.
besyanteo (5:04:50 PM): (I should
be less tempted to put her hand
in there.)
Idran1701 (5:05:14 PM): *the
gnome shouts something back
to her, but Lorraine can't even
hear a word of it*
besyanteo (5:05:46 PM): ("MY
ASSOCIATE IS TASTY!
ESECIALLY THE EYES!
YOU MUST EAT HIM! EAT
EAT EAT EAT EAT!)
Idran1701 (5:05:58 PM): (Hey you
read my notes)
besyanteo (5:06:30 PM): ( I am
psychic!)
besyanteo (5:06:47 PM): (Psychic
like the badger. I read your
notes with my mind. And
burrowing.)
ChristianCord (5:06:50 PM): (No,
Bes, you are a psycho.
Don't worry, I used to get
that wrong as well ^^)
Idran1701 (5:06:57 PM): *he turns
his head and shouts again, still
to no avail*
besyanteo (5:07:07 PM): *She
approaches*
besyanteo (5:07:09 PM): WHAT?
Idran1701 (5:07:35 PM):
*frowning, he nods, and looks
to the thing*
Idran1701 (5:08:07 PM): *and a
voice blares into
her mind*
THE-PROCESS-WILL-B
E-COMPLETE-IN-79-S
ECONDS
Idran1701 (5:08:28 PM): *back
upstairs, Aaron's
eyes go wide as he
looks around in
utter panic*
besyanteo (5:08:51 PM): IM:
AUGH
ChristianCord (5:09:35 PM):
*Magpie tries to calm him
down, eyes flashing
bright-green* Is
something wrong,
Aaron?
Idran1701 (5:09:42 PM):
(...Hahahahahahaha
ha. So this might
be evidence that
that "the LHC will
never work because
it causes a
disaster in the
future otherwise"
theory might
actually be true.)
Idran1701 (5:09:47 PM):
(Apparently it
just had another
accident.)
Idran1701 (5:09:57 PM): (When
a bird dropped a
piece of bread
into the outdoor
machinery.)
ChristianCord (5:10:30 PM):
(Haha, what?)
besyanteo (5:10:56 PM): (Wow)

Idran1701 (5:11:53 PM): *Aaron
seems more
confused than
worried*
ChristianCord (5:12:18 PM): (I
think it's Mother Nature
saying 'stop trying to
destroy the universe,
humans')
ChristianCord (5:12:54 PM):
*Magpie strokes the bird
carefully down its back
and considers for a
moment to try to find
Lorraine... but it has no
idea where she went, so
it decides just to wait
around)
Idran1701 (5:13:00 PM): (The
theory they're
talking about is
the LHC will cause
a large disaster,
and thus it can't
start now due to
weird time
effects.)
besyanteo (5:13:35 PM): (Then,
suddenly, black holes!
Hundreds of them!)
besyanteo (5:13:40 PM): (Anime
Girl: So cool!)
Idran1701 (5:13:46 PM): (And
we are only saved
by the bird army!)
Idran1701 (5:14:30 PM): *So what does Lorraine do in response?*
besyanteo (5:14:42 PM): *Wait for her books, so she can take them and FLEE*
Idran1701 (5:15:12 PM): *about a minute later, things quiet down again*
Idran1701 (5:15:35 PM): *the thing pulls two bound books from somewhere inside the machinery, holding them out to Lorraine in its
tentacles*
besyanteo (5:15:45 PM): ... *she takes them gingerly*
Idran1701 (5:15:57 PM): (*Lorraine becomes red-haired!*)
besyanteo (5:16:03 PM): D-... do I owe you anything for these?
ChristianCord (5:16:06 PM): (hoshit)
besyanteo (5:16:15 PM): (Lorraine evolves into! GENERIC IRISH LASS!)
besyanteo (5:16:29 PM): (GIL: ... Hm. Well. That's new. o_o)
Idran1701 (5:16:30 PM): (Get equipped with: ultra-freckles!)
ChristianCord (5:17:01 PM): (:< Magpie wants freckles and red hair)
Idran1701 (5:17:10 PM): (*gives them to it in a bag*)
ChristianCord (5:17:31 PM): ( o o Thank you)
Idran1701 (5:18:05 PM): *turns and shakes his head* Nope. Free of charge!
Idran1701 (5:18:10 PM): Our gift to guests.
besyanteo (5:18:27 PM): (In the unlikely event that Lorraine needs a reincarnation spell, becomes human and female again, she will totally be irish)
Idran1701 (5:18:34 PM): (Haha.)
besyanteo (5:18:47 PM): Oh. Ok. .... Thanks. Bye.
besyanteo (5:18:49 PM): *leaves*
besyanteo (5:19:08 PM): o_o IM: ... I want to go lie down now.
Idran1701 (5:19:28 PM): *Lorraine heads back upstairs!*
ChristianCord (5:20:11 PM): *looks up and walks over to her, handing over Aaron gingerly* Welcome back. Lorraine. Did everything go well?
Idran1701 (5:20:36 PM): (*Aaron becomes red-haired!*)
Idran1701 (5:20:48 PM): (*Unfortunately that is a weird look for a bird*)
besyanteo (5:20:59 PM): (Aaron: *now a red wolf. That talks* Wat.)
besyanteo (5:21:11 PM): ...
besyanteo (5:21:23 PM): Uhm.
besyanteo (5:21:24 PM): ...
besyanteo (5:21:27 PM): Let's just get back.
ChristianCord (5:21:59 PM): *Magpie nods and follows* ...did something happen?
besyanteo (5:22:36 PM): ... I saw something weird. That talked to me. And talked to my mind.
besyanteo (5:22:40 PM): It was offputting.
besyanteo (5:22:51 PM): (Also, I need to get some work done)
Idran1701 (5:23:51 PM): (*nod* I think we can leave off here. :O)
ChristianCord (5:24:04 PM): ...I see. Well, that is unfortunate, I was hoping you would find the experience enjoyable.
ChristianCord (5:24:07 PM): (Fine with me :-D)
Idran1701 (5:24:22 PM): (I'm surprised everyone was so disturbed, though. I thought Modrons were awesome. :D)
besyanteo (5:25:05 PM): (It's eyes on a sphere with a huge mouth and something that could be either a chin, an anus or something else enturely right below that mouth. On creepy little legs.)
Idran1701 (5:25:10 PM): (:D)
besyanteo (5:25:21 PM): (Creepy little elephant legs, it looks like)
Idran1701 (5:25:23 PM): (I'm pretty sure (hoping) it's a chin.)
besyanteo (5:25:53 PM): (Anyway, while it's not terrible?)
ChristianCord (5:25:55 PM): (Oh, well, I've seen modron cubes, and globes, and what have you. But that modron was creepy)
Idran1701 (5:26:09 PM): (It's the lips that are the best part.)
besyanteo (5:26:10 PM): (It's not standing right in front of me, channeling the uncanny valley into my brain)
besyanteo (5:26:14 PM): (In a hot, noisy room)
ChristianCord (5:26:33 PM): (Yeah, the lips are pretty disturbing, no matter what modron it is)
Idran1701 (5:26:43 PM): (The apparently four-foot-tall lips.)
ChristianCord (5:26:54 PM): (...:-()
besyanteo (5:27:02 PM): (anyway, back later)
Idran1701 (5:27:10 PM): (I'm probably going to grab some sleep myself.)
Idran1701 (5:27:19 PM): (Feel free to post whenever now. :O)
Idran1701 (5:27:33 PM): (And if neither of you minds, I'll put up this log for the other players.)
ChristianCord (5:27:49 PM): (Haha, I don't mind. :-D)
ChristianCord (5:28:10 PM): (I'll be going back to Dragon Age, might make a post later tonight)
Idran1701 (5:28:23 PM): (*nod* Have fun!)
(5:29:43 PM) besyanteo has left the room.
ChristianCord (5:29:51 PM): (Will do, thanks for thanks for the session :-) )
(5:30:01 PM) ChristianCord has left the room.
