TheWaiChibiAngel (8:42:35 PM): *:|*
Idran1701 (8:42:43 PM): :O?
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:43:22 PM): *I'm reallyu not in the mood to do much right now. Hopefully that'll change.*
Idran1701 (8:43:35 PM): *nod* That's fine. Everything all right?
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:46:02 PM): *Pervy was being Pervy and pissed me off.*
Idran1701 (8:46:34 PM): Ah. :(
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:46:40 PM): *In the meantime!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:46:44 PM): *Find me a torrent of Invincible?*
Idran1701 (8:46:48 PM): Sure.
Idran1701 (8:47:07 PM): Oh, that reminds me, I never asked: how're your teeth doing now?
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:47:20 PM): *..Invincible reminds you of my teeth?*
Idran1701 (8:47:29 PM): No, you not feeling great does.
Idran1701 (8:48:01 PM): http://www.demonoid.com/files/details/1330045/3365010/
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:49:18 PM): *Still not great, made worse by dad telling me it's local anesthetic.*
Idran1701 (8:50:08 PM): You mean you'd need it if you went in?
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:50:55 PM): *Well, to my knowledge, there's not really another way for them to cut teeth out of your face.*
Idran1701 (8:51:36 PM): Whiskey, a hammer, and a good set of pliers.
Idran1701 (8:52:40 PM): Anyway, ah. Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of needles either. :(
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:52:56 PM): *The needles, I don't care about.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:53:07 PM): *It's the "Now watch us stick this knife in your face!"*
Idran1701 (8:53:34 PM): Ah, yeah, that wouldn't be that enjoyable either. Can't you ask them to put you out entirely, though?
Idran1701 (8:53:39 PM): Or would that cause problems with it?
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:54:29 PM): *I have no idea.*
Idran1701 (8:56:11 PM): *nod* Might be a good idea to ask about that, then. Your dad or a dentist or whatever. I mean, it can only get worse if it's not taken care of. :(
Idran1701 (9:36:36 PM): That torrent work?
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:36:41 PM): *Yep*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:36:43 PM): *Thanks!*
Idran1701 (9:36:49 PM): No problem. :O
TheWaiChibiAngel signed off at 10:20:33 PM.
TheWaiChibiAngel signed on at 10:24:28 PM.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:26:56 PM): *I think I might be good for something.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:26:58 PM): *Maybe*
Idran1701 (10:27:20 PM): *nod* Well, I can give you a bit more time if you need it still. :O
Idran1701 (10:27:27 PM): Should be on the whole night, after all.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:30:52 PM): *I think I'm good.*
Idran1701 (10:31:24 PM): *nod* All right.
Idran1701 (10:31:54 PM): I was going to pick up just after the session, right after Lil went into the inn.
Idran1701 (10:32:47 PM): So, let's get started there? :O
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:33:14 PM): *Sure.*
Idran1701 (10:33:42 PM): <THEN WE START!>
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:34:09 PM): <FONT DUE TO LAZY>
Idran1701 (10:38:24 PM): *After dealing with the assembled mob outside pretty easily, Lil heads in. Melissa heads to the back, to grab Lil's letter, looking back as she does* Oh, there was a note from some herb store too...some sort of special order you had?
Idran1701 (10:38:31 PM): (Sorry, got distracted.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:39:16 PM): SPecial or..Oh yeah!
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:39:24 PM): (FINE THIS JUST WORKS BETTER)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:39:27 PM): Is it ready?
Idran1701 (10:39:52 PM): That's what they said. Whenever you want to go pick it up.
Idran1701 (10:40:18 PM): *she ducks in the back room, and shortly comes out holding a folded parchment, smiling as she hands it over* Here it is.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:43:17 PM): Thanks.
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:43:24 PM): *Takes it, heading for her room, reading it on the way.*
Idran1701 (10:46:08 PM): *Sounds like things are going pretty well. His family did think the changing was a little odd at first, but they got used to it fairly quickly, and they're glad he likes it.

Other than that, he's still settling back in. He talks about having gone swimming the day after Lil left, spending time with some of his friends there, exploring the woods nearby, fairly normal kid stuff.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:47:19 PM): *Decides to take a side trip, to Arian's room! Gonna try and steal some of his parchment.*
Idran1701 (10:49:49 PM): (One sec, lemme bug Shaun if there's anything of note she'd spot there. :D)
Idran1701 (10:53:00 PM): *Lil steps in; the door's closed, but not locked. Looking around, she spots some parchment there on the desk. Plenty of blank parchment, a few drawings in progress, and one of a winged woman that's set aside, away from his drawing supplies.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:54:18 PM): ...
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:54:22 PM): Ewwww.
Idran1701 (10:55:06 PM): (...Haha. :D)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:56:32 PM): *How complete is that last one?*
Idran1701 (10:57:14 PM): *It's finished; seems to have been set aside so it doesn't get damaged while he's drawing other works.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:57:45 PM): IM: Yes? No? Yes? No?
Idran1701 (11:02:16 PM): *Parchment both blank and used is there for the taking! What shall she do? :O*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:03:45 PM): IM: You know you must. All the more reason not to.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:04:00 PM): *Ignores the picture. Blackmail can come after she knows it's not some mushy present or something.*
Idran1701 (11:05:19 PM): *she grabs the clean parchment, then?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:05:25 PM): *Yes!*
Idran1701 (11:05:39 PM): *Parchment get!*
Idran1701 (11:06:53 PM): *Doesn't seem to be anything else interesting in here.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:08:19 PM): *SOmething to write with would be good, too.*
Idran1701 (11:10:14 PM): *...Ah, yeah, here's some. Arian shouldn't mind, right?

Not that that matters, of course.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:11:07 PM): *Of course not.*
Idran1701 (11:12:00 PM): *Writing stick also get!*
Idran1701 (11:16:43 PM): *Now that she's got her writing instruments, anything else she wants to do with Arian's possessions? :D*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:16:54 PM): *...NO*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:16:56 PM): *Bcak to her room*
Idran1701 (11:17:23 PM): *With her supplies in hand, Lil heads to her own room.*
Idran1701 (11:19:14 PM): *slipping the door open, she steps inside...and sitting on her bed she spots some sort of...spiky-tailed gargoyle thing, Nicolas in his clawed hand* Lilium, yes?
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:19:53 PM): ..That's me.
Idran1701 (11:23:06 PM): *he grins* Excellent. I wouldn't move much closer or call for anyone, by the way...I'm feeling a bit peckish after the trip here, I could use a snack. *he closes his hand over Nicolas, who's squirming a good deal more now*

But listen calmly and you'll get your little rat back just fine. Do we have an agreement?
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:25:28 PM): *NOds*
Idran1701 (11:26:50 PM): *gives a tooth-filled grin* Good. I was told you were reasonable, I'm glad to see it's true.

Now, I'm here on behalf of someone. I think you can guess who?
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:27:03 PM): *Sighs*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:27:09 PM): IM: I should have squashed that bug.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:27:27 PM): Yeah.
Idran1701 (11:29:10 PM): He seemed quite pleased when I told him of those...trophies you seem to have taken. I'm curious, what did you plan for them?
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:29:45 PM): A festive game of stickball. Except it's more limbhead, I guess.
Idran1701 (11:32:12 PM): *seems to grin a bit more* Oh, a sense of wit! He didn't mention that. I'm always glad to see it, it's almost a sign of cleverness from you mortals.

But are you sure that's the answer you want me to give him? I believe you did have something of an...arrangement.
Idran1701 (11:32:27 PM): And a slaad's arms...well, he could find a good deal of use for those.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:32:27 PM): Let me guess.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:32:29 PM): He wants them.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:32:38 PM): *Sighs* All of them?
Idran1701 (11:35:03 PM): Oh, I'm sure it's disappointing for you. You achieve such a major victory, only to have your own reward snatched from it.

...Hmm. *there's something of a glint in his eyes* I suppose I could tell him all but the arms were too damaged to be useful. His superiors would be fairly unhappy with him, I'm sure he's already made claim to the objects...but then again, he'd likely not be too happy with me.
Idran1701 (11:35:35 PM): Now, if I had reason to lie to my own superior like this...
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:36:23 PM): A bribe, of some sort.
Idran1701 (11:38:32 PM): *grins* Oh, bribing a baatezu to turn against its own is strictly against our laws, with stringent punishments.

On the other hand, perhaps I simply...forgot, or I was misinformed. Completely unrelated to any gifts you may give me for my leniency in treatment here today.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:38:56 PM): What do you want?
Idran1701 (11:42:33 PM): I know you dislike Karth'zanon. And I wouldn't mind achieving his position my own some day. I also know about that loophole you snuck into his safety contract, one he's still too distracted with his duties to have discovered himself. Now, if at some point in the future, I would try to replace him by bringing him to our courts for his multiple disgraces to our race...speaking purely hypothetically, of course...it would certainly be a useful bit of happenstance if he was too busy to appear in his own defense.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:43:28 PM): You want me to distract him.
Idran1701 (11:48:03 PM): *grins* Almost clever indeed.

When the time comes, you may recieve a note. From who, I couldn't say. But when you get this note, you may wish to visit with Karth'zanon in some fashion. Fight him if you have to, but only if you can make sure he won't just...pop away when he recieves word of his need for presence. Imprison him, ply him with gifts or rumors, seduce him, the methods are irrelevant as long as he chooses that over appearing before the osyluths.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:48:37 PM): IM: Oh, gross.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:48:48 PM): Uh huh.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:49:16 PM): And, what, praytell, do I get? Other than some trophies that are, to me, worthless.
Idran1701 (11:51:48 PM): For one, you needn't worry about matters between you and Karth'zanon. As things are now, you'd be forced to choose between serving him at his whim in this manner, or fighting him and failing. And from what I hear, neither option especially appeals to you.

But I suppose that isn't enough either? Mortals and their desires. *pft*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:52:35 PM): What do you mean, fighting him and failing?
Idran1701 (11:56:07 PM): Exactly that. Oh, perhaps you could kill him once, if you're lucky. But how many of his allies would you anger from such an obvious strike? Not to mention his eventual return, as all baatezu do.

*smiles* But with this...well, so near his eventual disgrace, I doubt these allies of his would care much at all what you did to him to keep him from appearing before the tribunal. You had no knowledge of it, after all, it was merely unlucky happenstance for him.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:56:57 PM): ..True enough.
Idran1701 (11:57:13 PM): But if this still isn't enough...?
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:57:20 PM): ..I'm thinking.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:00:27 AM): I mean..
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:00:37 AM): I really don't have much use for those pieces...
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:00:50 AM): and I could buy my freedom by protecting him from his enemies so he can make that appearance..
Idran1701 (12:03:06 AM): ...*frowns, squeezing his hand a bit tighter as Nicolas emits a small squeek* I suppose you could. But he isn't one to grant freedom so easily. The illusion of it, perhaps, but nothing more.
Idran1701 (12:03:22 AM): (He is definitely refraining from outright hurting him, though.)
Idran1701 (12:03:34 AM): (She can tell he's keeping himself from that.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:03:56 AM): I'm perfectly willing to work with you, mind.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:04:12 AM): ..But if you hurt the rat..

...Don't hurt the rat.
Idran1701 (12:04:28 AM): ...I hold to my agreements.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:04:50 AM): He's got a breathing problem.
Idran1701 (12:06:30 AM): ...*flatly* A breathing problem, you say?
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:06:56 AM): Yeah. If you could just..Ease up a little.
Idran1701 (12:08:40 AM): *frowning more deeply, he relaxes his grip just enough, still keeping a firm hold on him to prevent his escape*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:08:52 AM): *Nods* Thank you.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:08:57 AM): Now..
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:09:12 AM): Like I said, I'm perfectly willing to help, simply because I hate that bug.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:09:19 AM): But I'm still wavering.
Idran1701 (12:09:50 AM): And what would help to cement your support?
Idran1701 (12:10:10 AM): Money? Power?
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:11:04 AM): I'm not entirely sure, myself.
Idran1701 (12:14:25 AM): Hmm. Just what is it you desire?
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:15:10 AM): Money is good.

Power, maybe..
Idran1701 (12:16:27 AM): Perhaps something for another? You don't seem especially selfless, but it can strike any mortal, I suppose.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:17:12 AM): ..
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:17:22 AM): Tell me what you know.
Idran1701 (12:18:42 AM): ...*sounds slightly surprised, but covers it quickly* What I...well, I...certainly can't reveal all my knowledge right away, of course.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:19:32 AM): Tell me what you know.
Idran1701 (12:21:28 AM): ...Well, I'm sure your...friends might have desires of their own.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:22:04 AM): ..Yes.
Idran1701 (12:24:01 AM): Perhaps something along those lines, then? Though of course it would mean little more for you than I have already offered. *smiles*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:24:16 AM): ..I'll get back to you.
Idran1701 (12:26:10 AM): That is your choice, but I'd prefer you make a decision before I leave. I must know just how much to bring back to Karth'zanon, after all.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:27:19 AM): ..I'll help.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:27:27 AM): But the exact terms are still being negotiated.
Idran1701 (12:30:05 AM): *grins* Excellent. Then we have an arrangement...for now, at least. If you could hand me the arms? *he stands, revealing his full...3 feet of stature.

Huh, it was slightly more imposing before he stood.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:30:31 AM): *Tries not to snerk, and grabs them.*
Idran1701 (12:33:21 AM): *he sets Nicolas down on the bed and grabs the arms as best they can, despite them being nearly as large as he is. Carefully stepping back off the bed towards the window and unfurling his wings, he gives her a smirk* Then we'll meet again, at my next opportunity. A pleasure, Lilium.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:33:44 AM): And you?
Idran1701 (12:34:02 AM): What of me?
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:34:06 AM): Your name.
Idran1701 (12:35:27 AM): *grins* Oh, of course. Hasthim.
Idran1701 (12:37:05 AM): *pushing the window open* Now, if our business is completed?
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:37:38 AM): *Nods*
Idran1701 (12:38:29 AM): *nodding in return, he flaps up onto the window sill and falls through, taking off with the arms before hitting the ground below*
Idran1701 (12:39:14 AM): *meanwhile, Nicolas sits on the bed, staying fairly still and not really roaming around much as he shakes*
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:40:46 AM): *Sighs, picks up the ferrit and places him on her shoulder, and sits to write her note.*
Idran1701 (12:42:28 AM): (That's all the one-on-one stuff I had arranged. The rest can either wait until the session, or we could actually do now since Neb's online and Karl wouldn't have gotten back yet.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:42:47 AM): (I don't mind waiting.)
Idran1701 (12:43:14 AM): (*nod* All right. :O)
Idran1701 (12:43:19 AM): </RP?>
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:47:51 AM): *YES*
Idran1701 (12:48:46 AM): When the session starts up, I was thinking we'd timeskip ahead a bit to feeding Nicolas the herb. Unless there'd be more between now and that you'd want to handle first. :O
Idran1701 (12:58:27 AM): You know when Bes is getting back from vacation, by the way? Since I've got something to take care of with him and Pervy before this week's game.
TheWaiChibiAngel (12:58:39 AM): *Tomorrow.*
Idran1701 (12:58:42 AM): *nod*
TheWaiChibiAngel is idle at 1:30:06 AM.
TheWaiChibiAngel is no longer idle at 1:47:43 AM.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:15:42 AM): *BORED :(*
Idran1701 (3:15:53 AM): ALREADY? :(
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:16:25 AM): *KINDA :(*
Idran1701 (3:16:58 AM): Well, was there any more with the GURPS thing? Or is that done until next session? Wasn't sure at the end of the last one. :O
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:17:45 AM): *There was actually more to cover.*
Idran1701 (3:17:55 AM): *nod* I'd be up for that, then. :O
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:18:00 AM): *MAYBE*
Idran1701 (3:27:16 AM): Whenever, then. I'm not doing anything either right now.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:28:09 AM): *Okay!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:28:43 AM): *WHENEVER.*
Idran1701 (3:29:55 AM): This going to be picking up after the school stuff, or further along?
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:30:42 AM): *Pretty much right after.*
Idran1701 (3:31:43 AM): *nod* How's that end up working, anyway, the school stuff? Just Q&A, or what?
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:33:27 AM): *Pretty much taking subjects out of a school textbook, with test sessions every now and then, done orally.*
Idran1701 (3:33:34 AM): Ah. *nod*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:34:03 AM): *Before we begin, do you know anytihng about Invincible?*
Idran1701 (3:34:58 AM): ...Vaguely. I read a summary of it a while back, but I'm not sure if what I'm remembering is that or not. Something about a second generation of heroes that finds out some big secret about the first?
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:36:20 AM): *Do you know anything about Immortal?*
Idran1701 (3:36:41 AM): Not if you mean a comic series, no.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:36:45 AM): *Heheee.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:36:47 AM): *You'd love him.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:36:55 AM): *He's a Super Hero.

Who was also Abraham Lincoln.*
Idran1701 (3:37:01 AM): Ha. :D
Idran1701 (3:37:04 AM): I love those things.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:37:09 AM): *I'
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:37:14 AM): *I'll send you his page in a bit.*
Idran1701 (3:37:17 AM): *nod*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:37:20 AM): *For now, let's begin, says I.*
Idran1701 (3:37:32 AM): Sure. :O
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:38:45 AM): <BACK TO IT>
Idran1701 (3:39:06 AM): <RESUMING>
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:41:20 AM): *We'll begin as Tara and Brooke are leaving the interior chamber of the armor.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:41:54 AM): *Brooke would be carted off to the secondary chamber- Controllers orders- And the chamber filled with some sort of water like substance.*
Idran1701 (3:43:01 AM): *can Tara see this, or is it another one of these rooms entirely that Brooke's taken off to?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:43:15 AM): *Another one entirely!*
Idran1701 (3:44:28 AM): IM: Are you all right, Brooke?
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:48:17 AM): IM: Brooke's room is full of funny water.
Idran1701 (3:49:10 AM): *takes a seat on the floor* IM: ...That's okay, I think it's supposed to. It'll make you big again, but faster.
Idran1701 (3:49:18 AM): IM: What's it like?
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:50:16 AM): IM: ..brooke is getting big.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:50:21 AM): IM: Brooke is getting big big.
Idran1701 (3:51:11 AM): *laughs* IM: Okay, good. Once you're all the way big again, I'll be there soon after too. Does it feel different this time?
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:52:08 AM): IM: Brooke's water is weird..
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:52:24 AM): *Come to think of it, this chamber's water is making Tara grow. ...Pretty fast, too.*
Idran1701 (3:53:30 AM): *takes a look around, and kicks off the ground to float closer to the middle; does this water feel funny too in some way?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:53:52 AM): *Yes!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:54:08 AM): *The best way to put it, really, would be if she was drinking it, it would have an odd aftertaste.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:54:19 AM): *..This chamber isn't going to be nearly big enough, either.*
Idran1701 (3:56:22 AM): ...*Tara's starting to feel a little discomforted about that, but Selene knew what she was doing...something else'll probably happen soon, she figures, a new room or some such*

IM: Well, my water's kinda weird too. It's probably the stuff in it that makes us big faster, Brooke.
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:58:02 AM): *The walls begin humming!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (3:58:22 AM): *And Tara still feels like she's growing, but the room's not getting smaller.*
Idran1701 (3:59:50 AM): ...*does it look like the room's just getting bigger with her, or like she's being squeezed together, or something like that?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:00:29 AM): *The walls aren't moving. Nor are the bubbles that serve as points of reference..*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:00:57 AM): *Her volume is increasing, but her size is remaining constant.

Neat.*
Idran1701 (4:01:54 AM): *looking around, at the room and herself*

Huh.

IM: How are you feeling, Brooke?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:03:07 AM): IM: ..Brooke feels like mommy is hugging lots.
Idran1701 (4:04:32 AM): *grins* IM: You feel okay, then?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:05:39 AM): IM: Squished.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:06:03 AM): *A new sound, sort of like a whirring..Fan?*
Idran1701 (4:06:24 AM): *looks towards it* IM: That's okay, I'm squished too.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:06:40 AM): *..It is a fan. ANd it's starting to mix up the water.*
Idran1701 (4:07:23 AM): ...Huh.

IM: Brooke, you might get kind of dizzy soon. Don't worry, though, you'll be okay, I promise.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:09:40 AM): Ejection in 5...4....3...
Idran1701 (4:10:12 AM): ...Huh?
Idran1701 (4:10:18 AM): *waits to see what happens!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:10:23 AM): *Two..One..*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:10:45 AM): *There's a VWOOMP sound, and Tara feels like she's been shot out of a cannon!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:10:50 AM): *..Right into the ceiling!*
Idran1701 (4:11:05 AM): Gah! *splatters?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:11:09 AM): *QUite.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:11:17 AM): *Luckily, Brooke splatters right behind her.*
Idran1701 (4:11:36 AM): *Are they outside the armor now?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:13:46 AM): *Yep!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:13:58 AM): *The armor is standing..Without anyone occupying it, of note- Directly below them.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:14:12 AM): *She can see Selene- The future Selene- Sitting in the corner, Emma's head resting in her lap.*
Idran1701 (4:14:34 AM): *Tara and Brooke are stuck to the ceiling at the moment, then?*
Idran1701 (4:14:59 AM): (As much as you can call water shot at a surface stuck to it, that is.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:15:16 AM): *Probably dripping down.*
Idran1701 (4:15:59 AM): *waits to hit the ground before going back to humanoid form, "holding" Brooke while they're both puddled as she waits* IM: How're you feeling?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:17:29 AM): IM: ..Brooke went boosh.
Idran1701 (4:17:51 AM): IM: Yep. We both went boosh.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:18:52 AM): How was it?
Idran1701 (4:19:32 AM): ...Kind of fun, really. Wasn't what I was expecting, it was a lot...er...fancier.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:20:34 AM): It was designed with the two of you in mind.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:20:38 AM): Try turning human?
Idran1701 (4:21:06 AM): ...Already? *looks over herself; what size is she right now*
Idran1701 (4:21:10 AM): **?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:21:25 AM): *Full size :D*
Idran1701 (4:22:22 AM): ...Wow. *she does, but turned away, in case their clothing didn't come with them again*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:23:21 AM): *Not only is she still wearing the same swim suit she thought was destroyed by resonating...

Her hair's been dyed purple.*
Idran1701 (4:24:03 AM): ...*grinning, looking at is as best she can* Okay, how on Earth did you do that?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:24:16 AM): *Smiles*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:24:23 AM): One thing you'll need to understand.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:24:40 AM): The less sense my machines make, in a technical sense, the more likely I am to use them.
Idran1701 (4:25:39 AM): *chuckles* Don't know if I've mentioned this, but that's a pretty cool power.

...So, is this just hair dye, or what?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:27:28 AM): Suppliment invented by a chemist friend we'll meet three years from now. Changes one pygment for another.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:27:55 AM): It won't wash out or fade, but it'll wear off after about a month and a half.
Idran1701 (4:28:18 AM): Ah. *nods*
Idran1701 (4:28:43 AM): *holding Brooke in whichever form she's in right now, watching Selene* ...How's she doing?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:30:02 AM): ..She was..more out of it than I thought.
Idran1701 (4:30:21 AM): Did something happen?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:30:38 AM): The signal Butlerbot was putting out; she could hear it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:30:50 AM): It's what drove her to..act the way she did.
Idran1701 (4:30:55 AM): *nods*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:31:10 AM): She was still my Emma. But she wasn't all there.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:31:15 AM): She's back to me, now..
Idran1701 (4:31:33 AM): ...She's already doing better, then?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:31:56 AM): ..I can't say.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:32:16 AM): The reality is hitting her.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:33:26 AM): She just realized about a quarter before you two came out that her heart wasn't beating...

..If she noticed while under Butlerbot's influence, she had forgotten, or discounted it as an illusion set on by her mental state.
Idran1701 (4:34:35 AM): ...*frowns, setting Brooke down and moving over to sit by Selene*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:36:03 AM): She's cried herself to sleep for now.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:36:53 AM): *Tara gets closer, and probably figures out they're in the sound proof reinforced cell. She can see Selene running her fingers through Emma's hair. She may also notice Selene seems to be wearing a suit not unlike her own, though not quite a wetsuit. And a crimson and brown color.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:37:54 AM): Tara..I know, as it is, I'm twenty-one years older than you, but do you think of me as a sister? Or at least, a friend?
Idran1701 (4:39:34 AM): *pulls her legs up* ...I'm not...really sure about sister yet...I'm still trying to figure that out about Selene here. But a friend...well, yeah. You're not that different, Selene.
Idran1701 (4:39:49 AM): ...Well...you are, but not in that sort of way.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:39:55 AM): *Nods*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:39:58 AM): ..I need your help, Tara.
Idran1701 (4:40:10 AM): What can I do?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:40:29 AM): Did mum ever tell you the multiverse theory?
Idran1701 (4:41:00 AM): ...*shakes her head* I don't think so.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:42:05 AM): *Nods*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:42:14 AM): Consider this..
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:42:27 AM): There's another dimension, where..Mum never gave me up, and we were raised together.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:42:42 AM): There's another one where Mum and Dah never got married.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:42:47 AM): There's one where we were never born.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:42:52 AM): There's one were you were born and I wasn't.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:42:57 AM): There's one were I was born and you weren't.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:43:10 AM): There's one where France took over the universe.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:43:24 AM): There's one for just about any situation you might imagine possible.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:43:30 AM): You just need to find it.
Idran1701 (4:43:41 AM): ...*blinks* You're serious?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:43:46 AM): *Nods*
Idran1701 (4:43:47 AM): Where?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:43:52 AM): It's not a theory, anymore. It's been proven.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:44:24 AM): Where?
Idran1701 (4:44:57 AM): Like...other worlds out in space or something?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:45:12 AM): No..
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:45:30 AM): What's a good way to put it..
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:46:21 AM): Through some very heavy technology- Stuff not even I can make, because I can't even begin to fathom how it's supposed to work- We can communicate with a very select few.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:46:57 AM): When we came back to this time, we traveled through the space between them, blocking them from interacting one another in most cases. Exposure to that space is what activated my girl's powers.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:47:18 AM): ..It's also what seeded an entropic death in Emma's body, but not her mind and soul.
Idran1701 (4:47:35 AM): ...*nods*
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:48:03 AM): I know of another universe.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:48:12 AM): I think the key to reviving her body is there.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:48:17 AM): I need help looking for it.
Idran1701 (4:48:24 AM): ...What is it?
Idran1701 (4:48:28 AM): The key, I mean.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:48:34 AM): I don't know, exactly..
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:48:47 AM): ..But the universe I'd like to check out is one ravaged by a terrible disease.
Idran1701 (4:48:57 AM): (...Oh, you're not. :D)
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:49:17 AM): A world where, due to some intergalactic misshap, most, if not all the metahumans, were infected with the disease.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:49:21 AM): And became flesh eating zombies.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:49:25 AM): (I totally am.)
Idran1701 (4:49:26 AM): (Oh man. :D)
Idran1701 (4:49:44 AM): ...
Idran1701 (4:49:46 AM): ...What?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:50:17 AM): Reed Richards made contact with this universe, and made a transdimensional gateway to lead to it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:50:35 AM): The plan backfired when they tried to get to our world, seeing it as a source of fresh meat.
Idran1701 (4:50:47 AM): ...You're serious? Like...Night of the Living Dead or something?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:50:57 AM): A zombified version of the four were quarintined within the tower, and eventually beat by the Ultimates.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:52:13 AM): A meta by the name of Victor Van Damme went in and shut the portal from the other side, so no more could come through. We have no idea what's happened to him, or them, scince.
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:52:38 AM): And, I'd say more of Land of the Dead.
Idran1701 (4:53:28 AM): ...*blinks, still sounding a little disbelieving* Okay. But what do you want me to do?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:54:20 AM): I'd like you to go there with me.
Idran1701 (4:55:36 AM): ...You...you want me to go to some...world full of zombie virus with you? To do what?
TheWaiChibiAngel (4:58:57 AM): Search for a cure.
Idran1701 (5:02:37 AM): ...I don't know...I want to help Emma, really, but Mom's still out there somewhere, and I don't trust SHIELD to...I mean, what if something happened? Mom was never found where you're from, right? And I'm sure that was with me looking as best I could...

...God, that sounds so selfish of me.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:03:25 AM): But that wasn't with me and my girls helping.
Idran1701 (5:04:35 AM): I know, but...I mean, what if something'll happen to her because we're gone?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:05:06 AM): ...Yes, you're right.
Idran1701 (5:05:29 AM): ...I want to help Emma too, though.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:05:29 AM): Me and Abby will go.
Idran1701 (5:06:06 AM): ...What? No, you...I mean, maybe I'd be safe staying water, but what would you two do? You'd get infected!
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:08:17 AM): ANITA is made of a Vibranium compound.

I fought Iron Man to a standstill. Their teeth won't work against it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:08:44 AM): Abby's body is made of bubblegum. She hasn't had so much as a papercut scince her powers activated.
Idran1701 (5:08:52 AM): ...Didn't you say the Fantastic Four were zombies?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:09:12 AM): Beat by the Ultimates.
Idran1701 (5:09:34 AM): But I mean...who bit the Thing?

(Ben Grimm? Whatever he goes by here. :O)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:10:20 AM): (Ben Grimm)
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:10:40 AM): Probably the Sentry himself.
Idran1701 (5:10:48 AM): ...Who?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:11:10 AM): The one who originally came carrying the virus.
Idran1701 (5:11:36 AM): Oh...

...What about Reed Richards, though? He's as stretchy as Abby.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:12:33 AM): *Smiles* His physiology is completely different.
Idran1701 (5:14:35 AM): ...But if something happened to either of you because I...

...Do you know what you're looking for there?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:15:16 AM): ..I have a feeling.
Idran1701 (5:16:57 AM): ...Then you can tell me what to look for and I'll go. With Abby, if you're _sure_ she'll be fine, but that way someone can look for Mom here too. Someone that knows what didn't work before.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:17:27 AM): *Shakes her head*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:17:30 AM): I need to go.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:17:39 AM): I can use ANITA to reactivate the portal home.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:18:10 AM): ..But I'd like to see if I could get the assistance of your team.
Idran1701 (5:20:13 AM): ...I don't know if I'd really call them "my team"...I can ask for you, though.

But I still want to go with you. Abby and Selene can look while I'm gone, but if it's just me, I'll just...I'll probably do the same things again and it...it probably won't work this time either. I don't care if I'm the one that finds her, as long as someone does.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:20:46 AM): I'd like Abby to go.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:21:25 AM): I can look for her. I'll help..me..construct the prototype ANITA.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:21:33 AM): ..It's how it should be.
Idran1701 (5:22:15 AM): ...It is? So...all of this, you remember it happening the same way before?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:22:27 AM): *Shakes her head*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:22:51 AM): WHen I found out about Mum, I threw myself into my projects.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:23:02 AM): The original ANITA will have been built two months from now.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:23:08 AM): With my help, I could make it in two weeks.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:23:23 AM): ...This is the most bizarre thread of conversation I've ever had.
Idran1701 (5:25:02 AM): ...*small smile, but it falls soon* How will you do that if you're looking for Emma's cure, though?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:26:39 AM): Because I know where to find Emma's cure.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:26:56 AM): It's all a matter of going to that thread of the multiverse..
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:27:09 AM): ..And finding Emma there.
Idran1701 (5:27:48 AM): ...What if she's not there? I mean...wouldn't she...not be born yet?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:29:27 AM): Unless our powers are intact.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:29:43 AM): In which case, it could be said I built a time machine to try an stop the plague from starting.
Idran1701 (5:31:04 AM): ...*frowns* But you might have become some kind of zombie yourself before you could.

Maybe not, but it...this might not work, Selene.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:32:12 AM): ..It's all I've got, Tara.
Idran1701 (5:32:19 AM): ...Yeah.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:32:23 AM): *Runs her fingers through Emma's hair* It's all we've got.
Idran1701 (5:33:50 AM): *looks down to her* ...That's why I still want to help. I'm just...I'm warning you, is all.
Idran1701 (5:34:16 AM): ...You said it'd be two weeks for Selene to finish ANITA with your help?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:35:19 AM): That's if there's a mad scientist related explosion.
Idran1701 (5:36:52 AM): ...Can the trip wait that long? I don't want to put off the search more than we have to, but that way I know there's someone looking for Mom while I'm gone.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:37:49 AM): *Nods*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:38:11 AM): It'll give Abby time to train, and if I can get the materials, armor for your mates
Idran1701 (5:38:29 AM): *nods, still watching Emma*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:38:40 AM): *Emma's sleeping. :(*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:38:53 AM): *And Brooke is finally taking human form!*
Idran1701 (5:39:27 AM): *looking towards her now*

IM: *slightly sad* Hey. How're you doing?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:41:03 AM): *She's human now! With the same swimsuit, and royal green hair.* IM: Talk is making Brooke sad...
Idran1701 (5:42:09 AM): IM: I know. Come sit over here, Brooke. I'm still here for you.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:42:35 AM): *Brooke goes to sit!*
Idran1701 (5:43:53 AM): *pulls her into her lap, hugging her*

*to Selene* ...I'm going to talk to Selene later today. About all this.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:44:37 AM): I suppose it's silly of me to ask what you're going to say.
Idran1701 (5:45:09 AM): *chuckles* Yeah.

How well did it work the first time?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:46:07 AM): You're going to have to tell me you're serious four times.
Idran1701 (5:46:33 AM): Heh. And what about Brooke?
Idran1701 (5:46:37 AM): Five?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:46:45 AM): Hmm?
Idran1701 (5:47:19 AM): Explaining about her too, I mean. I haven't told Selene about her yet either.
Idran1701 (5:49:09 AM): *smiling slightly* I'm not sure how well she'll get used to the idea of me being a mom myself either. Especially this suddenly.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:49:43 AM): Oh, that?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:49:49 AM): Have her come in costume, and hide as a puddle.
Idran1701 (5:50:16 AM): *chuckles* Is that what I did before, or do you just want to see what'll happen?
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:50:28 AM): It's what you did.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:50:37 AM): You even had her pose as she turned solid.
Idran1701 (5:51:40 AM): *grins* Well, I have to do it now, just to see her face.

Don't tell me what happened there, I want to be surprised with that one.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:53:11 AM): *Nods*
Idran1701 (5:54:01 AM): ...How long do you think Emma'll be asleep for? Because I do want her to know I don't hold any of what happened against her...maybe it'll help her some.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:54:20 AM): ...
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:54:24 AM): I ..Don't know.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:54:37 AM): She hasn't slept scince..she got sick.
Idran1701 (5:54:47 AM): ...*nods*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:55:07 AM): ...I don't think she even blinked.
Idran1701 (5:56:02 AM): ...They must have done a real number on her. *brushes Emma's shoulder a bit*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:58:12 AM): And I am going to explode them for it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:58:14 AM): Whoever they are.
Idran1701 (5:59:11 AM): *nods* Count me in, once we find the bastards.
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:59:22 AM): *Smiles*
TheWaiChibiAngel (5:59:44 AM): You know, one the mark one is finished, you and I are going to have a lot of team ups.
Idran1701 (6:00:15 AM): Heh. I can't wait.
Idran1701 (6:00:54 AM): ...What about Erin? Before what happened, did you ever get close enough to...you know, count her in with us?
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:01:32 AM): ..Yeah.
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:01:39 AM): She lived in my armor for a bit.
Idran1701 (6:01:48 AM): ...What was that like?
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:02:01 AM): I was glad that she lived somewhere.
Idran1701 (6:03:36 AM): *nods* I'm really glad for that. I never told you straight out, but it's...well, I always felt bad for her.
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:04:11 AM): Huh?
Idran1701 (6:06:19 AM): It's just...I know you never meant any of it, and you still loved her and all, but you were always kinda rough on her. I'm just glad you two made up, since I know she really looked up to you.
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:07:20 AM): ..I always did have a soft spot in my heart for her.
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:07:29 AM): I guess I figured we needed to stick together.
Idran1701 (6:08:51 AM): Yeah.

...I think maybe we'll leave you two alone for now, so I can talk to Selene about all this stuff. I'll try to come back later, if she's not up yet.
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:09:18 AM): Okay.
Idran1701 (6:10:26 AM): ...*Gives Selene a small hug with her free arm before she sets Brooke down and stands up*
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:10:54 AM): Leaving?
Idran1701 (6:11:25 AM): *nods* We're going to talk to the other Selene now, Brooke. Okay?
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:12:15 AM): ..Too many Sell Leans.
Idran1701 (6:12:42 AM): *chuckles* Maybe.

Do you want to say bye to Selene?
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:14:48 AM): Bye, Sell Lean!

Bye bye, little drip.
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:15:01 AM): IM: She called Brooke little drip!
Idran1701 (6:16:03 AM): *chuckles* IM: Yep. I bet she knows you pretty well in the future.
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:16:15 AM): IM: Brooke is still little drip?
Idran1701 (6:16:49 AM): IM: Brooke'll always be little drip.
Idran1701 (6:18:33 AM): *takes her hand and heads to the door; any sort of fancy opening thing?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:19:12 AM): *Hand print.*
Idran1701 (6:19:43 AM): *puts her other hand on the plate, seeing if it'll work*
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:20:05 AM): *ZWEE~*
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:20:08 AM): *..Doors open!*
Idran1701 (6:20:38 AM): *steps out, then!*
Idran1701 (6:21:11 AM): (Not sure if you wanted to skip over talking with Selene or not, but I'm good with either. :O)
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:21:34 AM): (We shall save that for tonight, I think.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (6:21:37 AM): (I am getting tired. :( )
Idran1701 (6:21:47 AM): (...Oh, hey, it's 6:30 almost.)
Idran1701 (6:22:12 AM): (You'd think I'd notice these things more with timestamp on. :D)
Idran1701 (6:22:51 AM): (Anyway, night, then. :O)
TheWaiChibiAngel signed off at 6:28:18 AM.
