SongstressEnlil (7:34:20 PM): * =[*
TheWaiChibiAngel (7:34:22 PM): *Got Lurker :D*(
Idran1701 (7:34:26 PM)
: !
Idran1701 (7:34:28 PM): Congrats. :D
Besyanteo (7:36:02 PM): ... woot! Fixed it.
Besyanteo (7:36:12 PM): Now to screencap, jpg, and pimp
Besyanteo (7:38:44 PM): http://besyanteo.rpgww.org/images/screenie2.jpg
Besyanteo (7:39:11 PM): jpg compression shifts the colors, but it's still pretty good I think.
SongstressEnlil (7:39:23 PM): *Haha Tau*
Besyanteo (7:39:29 PM): Toss. =P
Idran1701 (7:40:00 PM): Nifty.
SongstressEnlil (7:40:06 PM): *We'll see what the third circuit courts have to say about that!*
Besyanteo (7:41:49 PM): I might redo "Games" later, once I kill half the shortcuts in it.
Besyanteo (7:42:03 PM): Steam vomitted something like 20 of them onto my desktop,
SongstressEnlil (7:42:07 PM): *::Nods::*
Besyanteo (7:42:10 PM): and I jsut tossed them into the fodler to sorto ut later.
Besyanteo (7:42:26 PM): ... aparently I accidentally put my typing skills in there with them.
TheWaiChibiAngel (7:43:02 PM): *That's a Dark Archon, you uneducated twit.*
Besyanteo (7:43:08 PM)
: It is!
Besyanteo (7:43:19 PM): But Pervy won't see them for a damn long time.
Besyanteo (7:43:23 PM): So we should forgive him.
(7:44:03 PM) Brodzky Zero has entered the room.
Besyanteo (7:44:06 PM): >:
Brodzky Zero (7:44:16 PM): *??*
Idran1701 (7:44:24 PM): Hey, Zero. :O
Besyanteo (7:44:27 PM): >:!
Besyanteo (7:44:29 PM): I mean, hi.
Brodzky Zero (7:44:31 PM): *BES WHAT ARE YOU DOING*
Brodzky Zero (7:44:35 PM): *Stop, it's unprofessional.*
Idran1701 (7:44:37 PM): We'll be a bit longer, about 15 minutes, since Neb has to make dinner.
Besyanteo (7:45:10 PM): Zero: Boredom yields good things today.
Brodzky Zero (7:45:57 PM): *Did it yield a 40k post?*
Brodzky Zero (7:46:08 PM): *Wait, did you draw that on the background?*
Besyanteo (7:46:13 PM): HAHAHAHA no
Besyanteo (7:46:21 PM): I downloaded it from an SC enthusiast site.
Idran1701 (7:46:28 PM): I think he means the folder stuff.
Brodzky Zero (7:46:33 PM): *Yeah*
Idran1701 (7:46:34 PM): The Games and Internet and etc. things.
Besyanteo (7:46:37 PM): Yes!
Idran1701 (7:47:10 PM): You did? I just figured you found some sort of theme deal to handle that stuff.
Besyanteo (7:47:16 PM): I took a screencap of my desktop with no background, the icons already placed,
Besyanteo (7:47:33 PM): and then drew around them, erased them, and did detailing.
Besyanteo (7:47:51 PM): The original plan was to use an SC theme thing, but that got kicked in the head when I couldn't make it look the way I wanted.
Idran1701 (7:47:55 PM): Won't that make it really inconvienent when/if you get more icons, though?
Idran1701 (7:48:02 PM): Or less?
Besyanteo (7:48:08 PM): It would, yes. But I don't get them very often.
Brodzky Zero (7:48:13 PM): *I save everything to my desktop :(*
Idran1701 (7:48:14 PM): Ah. Fair enough. :O
Idran1701 (7:48:22 PM): Yes, but you are silly, Zero.
Besyanteo (7:48:28 PM): Zero: And I bet your desktop is filled with crap, huh?
Brodzky Zero (7:48:37 PM): *Nope.*
Besyanteo (7:48:42 PM): Yarr.
SongstressEnlil (7:48:44 PM): *Desktops are for saving things to. So you remember they are there til you're done wiff 'em*
Brodzky Zero (7:48:46 PM): *I sort it occasionally.*
Idran1701 (7:48:52 PM): Not me, since I never see my desktop.
Idran1701 (7:48:57 PM): Except when I first log in.
Idran1701 (7:49:03 PM): I don't even have a desktop image right now.
Brodzky Zero (7:49:06 PM): *It's the loading dock for the rest of my computer.*
Besyanteo (7:49:24 PM): But yeah. If I ever want to change it, I have all the base components for it saved in various bitmap files.
Besyanteo (7:49:44 PM): So I can make a new one in anywhere from 10 minutes to 3 hours, depending on how much modifying I want to do.
Brodzky Zero (7:49:45 PM): *Saved on the desktop?*
Besyanteo (7:49:53 PM): "My Pictures" =P
Besyanteo (7:50:11 PM): I figure Microsoft gave it to me, may as well make use of it.
TheWaiChibiAngel (7:52:47 PM): *Neb says to go ahead and start without her; she's just starting dinner*
Idran1701 (7:53:08 PM)
: Right, then. Everyone else here?
Besyanteo (7:53:16 PM): I also started ripping the window panes from the Terran Briefing room for Starcraft; Almost finished it before giving up for now. And I'm here!
Brodzky Zero (7:53:27 PM): *I AM HERE*
SongstressEnlil (7:53:33 PM): *I am there*
Besyanteo (7:53:51 PM): This room is full of asterisks.
SongstressEnlil (7:54:13 PM)
: *It is full of stars!*
Besyanteo (7:54:21 PM): My God!
Brodzky Zero (7:54:48 PM)
: *DANCE*
TheWaiChibiAngel (7:54:54 PM): *:Revs sword:*
Brodzky Zero (7:55:07 PM): *:Opens the pod bay door:*
Idran1701 (7:55:21 PM): Shaun?
SongstressEnlil (7:55:33 PM): *::Makes more bunkers::*
Besyanteo (7:57:26 PM): Oh fuck bunkers.
Besyanteo (7:57:36 PM)
: *builds a shitton of Guardians*
CGNakibe (7:57:53 PM)
: DANGER! DANGER! AN ENEMY SHIP APPROACHES
Brodzky Zero (7:57:57 PM)
: *I have a little over one thousand bucks saved up!*
Besyanteo (7:58:09 PM): BUY A PONY.
Besyanteo (7:58:11 PM)
: OR A CAR.
Besyanteo (7:58:14 PM)
: OR A PONYCAR.
Brodzky Zero (7:58:16 PM)
: *I AM SAVING FOR CAR*
Brodzky Zero (7:58:20 PM): *So I can go far.*
SongstressEnlil (7:58:22 PM): *NOT FOR YOU*
Besyanteo (7:58:30 PM): (Not Yours)
Idran1701 (7:58:54 PM)
: <Beginning is now!>
Brodzky Zero (7:58:59 PM): <FIRST>
SongstressEnlil (7:59:10 PM): <Traveling through time at the rate of one second per second>
Besyanteo (7:59:39 PM): <Still basically a talking dog>
Idran1701 (7:59:45 PM)
: As things left off, the party had split. Lil and Guy departed for Elysium, to speak with the family of Dafydd, while Karl, First, Arian, and Martillo went to Ortho to defend Legunda's name to the Harmonium.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:00:03 PM): <VROOM >: >
Idran1701 (8:00:25 PM): With varying degrees of success, both groups have returned to the city, assumedly heading back to the Dragon's Vault unless not.
Brodzky Zero (8:00:31 PM): (Shini will run you over.(
SongstressEnlil (8:00:53 PM): (Who do you thnk you are, trying to put him away?)
SongstressEnlil (8:01:41 PM): *Has not returned. How unusual! Instead he departed right after emerging from the gate*
Idran1701 (8:02:17 PM): *with the two-man group follows both a small child and a small dog!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:02:31 PM)
: *IS THERE*
Idran1701 (8:03:06 PM): (Is anyone else not heading straight back to the inn?)
Brodzky Zero (8:03:07 PM)
: *Probably went with Karl.*
Besyanteo (8:03:07 PM): *sitting near Lil for now!*
SongstressEnlil (8:03:35 PM)
: *First would have be asked to stay with the rest*
Brodzky Zero (8:03:46 PM): *Did that, then*
Brodzky Zero (8:03:57 PM): *Sip tea everyday.*
Idran1701 (8:04:34 PM): *Lil and Guy are the first to return, then; Melissa's not out at the moment, but the two can hear her shuffling around in back.*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:05:05 PM)
: *Looks that way* Hey, Melissa?
Idran1701 (8:05:39 PM): *from back* Oh, Lil, you're back?
Idran1701 (8:06:08 PM): *Meanwhile, the three continue on through the street, Karl splitting off for now.*
CGNakibe (8:06:11 PM): (Headed to see Karinska, perhaps, and THEN the inn)
Idran1701 (8:06:19 PM)
: *The two, then!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:06:33 PM): Yeah. You have an extra room?
Idran1701 (8:08:17 PM): ...I should, yeah. *she pokes her head out* Does that mean...*smiles at seeing Dafydd* Ah, I suppose it did.
Idran1701 (8:09:30 PM): Well, welcome back. To all three of you.
Idran1701 (8:09:48 PM): *smiling quietly, sticking close to Lil for now*
Idran1701 (8:09:59 PM): *and before long, First and Martillo have returned to the inn themselves*
Besyanteo (8:10:00 PM): *tail wag!*
Brodzky Zero (8:11:40 PM)
: *Sits down at his spot~*
Idran1701 (8:11:55 PM): Can I get you...oh, greetings to you two too...can I get you all anything?
Brodzky Zero (8:12:02 PM): Tea please.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:13:51 PM): *To Davey!* Why don't you go put your stuff in my room for now?
Idran1701 (8:15:08 PM): *nods* Okay! And...um...*to Melissa* could I have some soup, please?
Idran1701 (8:15:13 PM): *looks to Lil*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:16:19 PM): *Nod*
Idran1701 (8:16:46 PM): *smiles* All right.
Idran1701 (8:16:54 PM): *smiling back, he gives Lil a hug before heading upstairs*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:18:41 PM): *Sits, leaning back*
NebbieQ (8:18:44 PM): No thank you, I am-ah, Lillith!
Idran1701 (8:18:55 PM)
: (Lilium. :D)
NebbieQ (8:19:04 PM): (...LILLIUM*)
NebbieQ (8:19:11 PM)
: (I got her confused with another RP character for a moment.)
Besyanteo (8:19:55 PM)
: *looks up at the new arrivals!*
NebbieQ (8:20:31 PM)
: And Guy as well, I see.
NebbieQ (8:20:36 PM)
: How have you two fared?
Besyanteo (8:20:47 PM)
: Yes.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:21:30 PM)
: Pretty good.
Idran1701 (8:21:32 PM): *Thorn hops into Lil's lap, looking to the new arrivals himself as he lies comfortably*
Idran1701 (8:22:53 PM)
: *and Melissa ducks in back, to prepare the requested items*
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:24:35 PM): *Scratchy scratchies Thorn's ears* You guys?
Brodzky Zero (8:25:09 PM): *Has a big fiery statue on the table. Is whispering to it.*
Besyanteo (8:25:39 PM): *yawns!*
NebbieQ (8:25:46 PM)
: Well, I think we may rise through the debate victorious!
Besyanteo (8:25:50 PM)
: *and then shakes out, before lying down*
NebbieQ (8:25:55 PM)
: IM: Hrm. I still need to ask First about that.
NebbieQ (8:26:07 PM)
: *Watches him talk to the statue* IM: Strange fellow, really.
Idran1701 (8:26:09 PM)
: *soon enough, she emerges, giving First his tea and setting Dafydd's soup on the table for his return* Anything you'd like, the rest of you?
Brodzky Zero (8:26:38 PM): *Sips his tea with no thought for letting it cool!*
NebbieQ (8:26:38 PM): Some warm stew and a loaf of bread, if you please.
Besyanteo (8:26:47 PM)
: Nothing now.
Brodzky Zero (8:26:50 PM)
: Oh. I would like a bread as well, please.
Idran1701 (8:28:56 PM): *nods* Lilium?
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:29:24 PM): Whatever meat you have.
Brodzky Zero (8:29:48 PM): I too would enjoy meat. Please.
Brodzky Zero (8:29:57 PM): *Sippy~*
Idran1701 (8:31:12 PM): *nods* Sure. It'll take me a bit to cook, I'll bring it out when it's ready.
Idran1701 (8:31:18 PM): *and in she goes!*
Idran1701 (8:31:38 PM): *meanwhile, Dafydd comes back down the stairs, pulling himself into the chair next to Lil*
OnlineHost (8:32:56 PM): SongstressEnlil rolled 1 20-sided die: 19
Idran1701 (8:34:32 PM): *and he begins to eat, first looking towards the doorway* Thank you!
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:36:19 PM): What kinda soup is that?
Idran1701 (8:36:43 PM): ...Um...I dunno what it's called. It's got a lot of vegetables, though!
Idran1701 (8:36:44 PM): It's good!
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:37:25 PM): Good, good.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:37:38 PM): Gotta eat those, or you won't grow up strong.
Idran1701 (8:37:50 PM): *nods*
Idran1701 (8:38:21 PM): *and he looks to First and Marty, while he eats slowly* ...Um...where'd you go when Lilly and Guy came to see me?
NebbieQ (8:39:01 PM): Ah, well, we were summoned to a meeting of sorts.
Idran1701 (8:40:52 PM)
: What kinda meeting?
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:41:03 PM): `Borning grownup stuff.
Idran1701 (8:41:12 PM): Oh. Okay.
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:41:14 PM): That's why we went to get you, instead.
NebbieQ (8:41:57 PM): *Chuckles, and shakes his head*
Idran1701 (8:42:18 PM)
: *smiles, giving her another hug*
Besyanteo (8:43:19 PM): *his tail wags a little.*
Idran1701 (8:44:26 PM)
: *and interrupting the silence, the door opens, as Karin and Arian enter*
Besyanteo (8:45:43 PM): *he looks up!*
Idran1701 (8:45:55 PM)
: *smiles to the group, a bit more broadly as she spots Dafydd* Hello, all.
Brodzky Zero (8:46:09 PM): Hello.
NebbieQ (8:46:45 PM): Greetings!
NebbieQ (8:46:48 PM)
: (brb, need to restart)
Idran1701 (8:46:54 PM)
: *takes a seat, looking to Lil and Guy* It looks like your trip went well.
Idran1701 (8:47:00 PM): (*nod* We'll wait. :O)
CGNakibe (8:47:05 PM): Ah, excellent. Nothing exploded so far, so I suppose there's nothing to worry about.
(8:47:07 PM) NebbieQ
has left the room.
(8:51:11 PM) NebbieQ has entered the room.
Brodzky Zero (8:51:35 PM): (Welcome back!)
Idran1701 (8:51:50 PM): *to Lil* Is Dafydd staying for good this time?
NebbieQ (8:52:03 PM): (Thank you)
TheWaiChibiAngel (8:52:06 PM)
: Ah..We're sort of trading him off every couple weeks.
Idran1701 (8:52:23 PM): Ah. *nods*
Idran1701 (8:52:51 PM): What about you, Guy? I imagine you were glad to get out of the city again.
Brodzky Zero (8:53:24 PM): *Siiiip*
Besyanteo (8:53:31 PM): It was fun, yes.
Besyanteo (8:53:41 PM)
: (sorry, distracted for a sec there)
CGNakibe (8:54:09 PM)
: Nothing TOO interesting happened to you while you were gone, I hope?
Besyanteo (8:57:03 PM): *his ears perk forward. He doesn't have much to say to that one.*
Idran1701 (8:57:34 PM)
: *Karin gives a slight chuckle, as a knocking issues from the door*
Besyanteo (8:57:58 PM): *looks at the door!*
Idran1701 (8:58:17 PM)
: *another knock, identical to the last*
Idran1701 (8:59:56 PM): *and a third*
CGNakibe (9:00:44 PM): Now who could THAT be?
Besyanteo (9:01:17 PM): ("It's Civil Protection! Fire!")
Brodzky Zero (9:01:38 PM)
: (First: *Throws a car*)
CGNakibe (9:01:38 PM): (Could be worse)
CGNakibe (9:01:47 PM): (It could easily be the Kazerian Inquisition.)
Brodzky Zero (9:02:02 PM): (THey wouldn't knock. One of their chief weapons is surprise.)
CGNakibe (9:02:18 PM): (I thought that was fear? o.o)
Idran1701 (9:03:49 PM): *the knocking goes quiet after the third, but none can hear any footsteps departing from the door*
Besyanteo (9:03:52 PM): (Fear isn't going to stop the rebels!)
Besyanteo (9:03:57 PM)
: (That's what energy rifles are for.)
Besyanteo (9:04:21 PM)
: ... *looks to the others*
Besyanteo (9:04:26 PM)
: Was someone going to get that...?
CGNakibe (9:04:34 PM)
: *heads towards the door* I suppose....
CGNakibe (9:04:55 PM): But I can't say I was expecting someone *walkwalkwalk* *open* Hello?
Idran1701 (9:05:25 PM): *Arian opens the door, where at the other side...a Keeper stands, staring at him*
CGNakibe (9:06:15 PM): Is there something I can do for you? *sounds a little more annoyed than anything else*
Idran1701 (9:07:03 PM): ...This is your residence. *his head turns barely, as he looks beyond Arian at the common room*
CGNakibe (9:07:45 PM)
: Er, not exactly, but I assume you have some business here at the present?
Idran1701 (9:08:19 PM): We do. We shall enter?
CGNakibe (9:09:30 PM)
: I... suppose. *and motions for the odd person to enter* Karl, there seems to be someone here to see you.
Idran1701 (9:09:36 PM): (For those that don't remember them:)
CGNakibe (9:09:40 PM)
: Or I'd assume so.
Idran1701 (9:09:40 PM): *Karl still is not here!*
CGNakibe (9:09:45 PM)
: ... well.
CGNakibe (9:09:48 PM): That's interesting.
CGNakibe (9:10:08 PM): .... Um.... I suppose he'll be back momentarily.
Idran1701 (9:10:13 PM): (Grey-skinned, bald creatures that dress all in black, only their heads and hands visible, with opaque goggles around their eyes.)
Idran1701 (9:10:26 PM)
: (They keep asking for/demanding Karl.)
CGNakibe (9:10:28 PM)
: IM: .... strange.
Idran1701 (9:10:50 PM): *the being enters, taking a seat at an empty table; two others, appearing identical to the first, follow after*
Idran1701 (9:11:12 PM)
: *They each stare blankly straight ahead, utterly motionless in their chairs*
NebbieQ (9:11:33 PM)
: *Watches as they walk in, remaining silent*
Besyanteo (9:11:52 PM)
: ... *his fur fluffs, and he ceases to move utterly*
CGNakibe (9:11:55 PM)
: IM: correction, VERY strange.
Idran1701 (9:12:14 PM): *Dafydd watches them himself, scooting a bit closer to Lil*
Brodzky Zero (9:12:28 PM): *Is staring at his statue in a similar way! What a fun party.*
CGNakibe (9:12:34 PM): *heads over to Karinska* *w* ... I don't quite like the looks of this..
Idran1701 (9:13:07 PM): *and in comes Melissa with the rest of the food orders, stopping with a start as she sees the Keepers sitting there, keeping her eyes on them as she sets the food before the party*
Idran1701 (9:13:11 PM): ...Here's your orders...*w* What're they doing here?
Idran1701 (9:13:20 PM): *w* ...Neither do I.
Brodzky Zero (9:13:24 PM): *GET MEAT AND BREAD!?!*
Idran1701 (9:13:28 PM): *Yes!*
Brodzky Zero (9:14:32 PM): I will consume this elsewhere. Please.
NebbieQ (9:14:57 PM): *Clears his throat* Is there something we can help you with?
Idran1701 (9:15:19 PM)
: *she nods to First absently, watching the Keepers*
Brodzky Zero (9:15:32 PM): *Takes the food and his statue and goes!*
CGNakibe (9:16:14 PM): *w* Chances are they're after Karl again... perhaps we need to warn him BEFORE he actually comes in?
Brodzky Zero (9:16:16 PM): (I have to go! :D Seeya, folks and folkettes.)
Idran1701 (9:16:19 PM): *they each turn their heads to face Marty, in near-synchronicity; only one speaks, however* ...When shall Karl return?
(9:16:51 PM) Brodzky Zero
has left the room.
NebbieQ (9:16:55 PM): *Shakes his head* I do not know.
Idran1701 (9:17:23 PM)
: *Karin nods to Arian* *w* Where'd he say he was going?
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:18:56 PM): *Put her hand on Davey's head, just sort of..Sitting it there*
CGNakibe (9:20:30 PM): *w* He never told me that anyway..... come to think of it, he never said when we'd meet up with him again.
Idran1701 (9:22:10 PM): *w* Odd...
Idran1701 (9:22:38 PM): *still to Marty* Do you know of the Auraform?
Besyanteo (9:23:07 PM)
: IM: Do you think they're talking about you?
NebbieQ (9:23:30 PM)
: *Cocks his head* I'm afraid I do not.
CGNakibe (9:23:33 PM)
: *w* ... this is true.
Idran1701 (9:23:44 PM): T: ...I don't know. I've never been called an Auraform before. Maybe?
Idran1701 (9:24:07 PM): Then you are useless to us.
Besyanteo (9:24:14 PM)
: *The left ear, it flicks!
CGNakibe (9:24:18 PM)
: .... eh?
Idran1701 (9:24:58 PM): Karl Hendrick has knowledge of the Auraform. We shall depart when he is turned to us, that we may take this knowledge.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:27:10 PM)
: ..Hmm.
CGNakibe (9:27:46 PM): IM: So that must be why they want to talk to him so badly. But what IS this "Auraform" thing they speak of anyway?
Idran1701 (9:28:40 PM): *he casts his gaze over the rest of the group* ...Do any of you hold knowledge of the Auraform?
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:28:48 PM)
: No, not really.
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:28:56 PM): *w* Go up stairs, Dafydd.
Idran1701 (9:29:59 PM): *he looks to Lil, but nods reluctantly, squeezing her hand and heading to her room*
Idran1701 (9:31:00 PM): *Thorn looks between Dafydd and Lil, tensed up and ready to hop down after him*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:31:18 PM)
: *Glances at Thorn* You go, too.
CGNakibe (9:31:31 PM): Hey, Lilium.
Idran1701 (9:31:45 PM): *scampering off, he follows Dafydd up the stairs*
TheWaiChibiAngel (9:31:57 PM)

Idran1701 (10:58:32 PM): (Nothing at all. :D)
Besyanteo (10:58:40 PM)
: (Tofu!)
Idran1701 (10:58:42 PM)
: (Nothing he's tasted before, at least.)
Idran1701 (10:58:46 PM)
: (Definitely not like flesh.)
Besyanteo (10:58:49 PM)
: (Tofu still!)
SongstressEnlil (10:59:00 PM)
: (Guy: Oh fuck, am I a vegan now?)
Besyanteo (10:59:37 PM): (Karl: Cheer up. I'm sure you're on your way to a healthier existence. Look at the Vegan lion!)
TheWaiChibiAngel (10:59:38 PM)
: *Makes to stomp on the things back* Okay, now, you're gonna tell us what this is all about!
Besyanteo (10:59:48 PM): (Vegan Lion: *emaciated horror with mange. It coughs weakly*)
Besyanteo (10:59:51 PM)
: (Guy: ;-;)
Idran1701 (11:00:14 PM)
: (No need for a roll for that, Lil gets her boot on its back with surprisingly little resistance.)
SongstressEnlil (11:00:45 PM)
: (Guy: Perhaps I can use these sharp teeth for cracking open coconuts...)
Idran1701 (11:00:47 PM): ...You will regret striking against us! We shall find the Auraform and eradicate it!
Idran1701 (11:01:33 PM)
: (Combat's basically over now, people can go ahead and act at will. :D)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:01:46 PM)
: WHAT is the Aura Form?
NebbieQ (11:01:57 PM): We know nothing of the Auraform!
Idran1701 (11:01:57 PM)
: (Also, an odd note: this one's voice sounds exactly as the first ones did, despite the smaller size.)
Idran1701 (11:02:55 PM)
: *seems to be ignoring Lil's question* Your lack of knowledge shall not save you, now that you have struck against us.
Besyanteo (11:02:56 PM)
: *Stays out of it for now, examining his wound*
Idran1701 (11:03:34 PM)
: *it still aches, bruising badly; he might have even sprained a rib*
Idran1701 (11:03:40 PM)
: *didn't break the skin, thankfully*
Idran1701 (11:04:20 PM)
: Release me!
NebbieQ (11:04:30 PM)
: No. Not while you still pose a threat to our friends.
CGNakibe (11:04:34 PM)
: Well? It makes for a decidedly ugly pet.
Besyanteo (11:05:00 PM): It will not be that size for too much longer. Keep that in mind.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:05:05 PM)
: *Grinds her heel in a bit*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:05:16 PM): You should answer the question.
CGNakibe (11:05:28 PM): An excellent point, Guy.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:05:28 PM): IM: That's what your mom said. Hur hur.
Idran1701 (11:05:45 PM): (...I'll admit, I laughed.)
Besyanteo (11:06:04 PM)
: (I thought it all the way through, and didn't because it doesn't make sense.)
Besyanteo (11:06:16 PM)
: ("your Dad said" on the other hand.)
Idran1701 (11:07:01 PM)
: You needn't know. That knowledge is meant for us alone.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:07:51 PM)
: Yeah, and you got your asses kicked.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:07:56 PM): To the victors go the spoils.
Idran1701 (11:08:18 PM): Release me, or I shall release myself.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:08:54 PM)
: Hmm.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:08:56 PM): Well, okay.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:09:10 PM): *She'll punch him with her blade where the spine should meet the skull*
Besyanteo (11:10:07 PM): *unphased by her response!* IM: Do you know anything else about these things? Anything beyond their lack of emotion?
Besyanteo (11:10:23 PM)
: IM: I'm curious how they think their kin will know of what we've done...
Idran1701 (11:10:23 PM)
: *She does so, the blade passing through the neck, hitting the ground underneath him. Despite that the windpipe should be blocked, though...* Release me!
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:10:33 PM)
: ...
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:10:35 PM): Sonofa..
Besyanteo (11:10:35 PM): *starts*
Idran1701 (11:10:36 PM)
: T: I don't know, I've never even seen them before.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:10:46 PM): *She'll rotate the blade, trying to decapitate him*
Besyanteo (11:11:20 PM): ...
Idran1701 (11:11:25 PM)
: *She twists, but it seems to be simply...dragging his head rather than slicing through the flesh, twisting it around towards the party.*
Besyanteo (11:11:38 PM)
: IM: It's not talking physically. It can't be. So that means...
CGNakibe (11:11:40 PM)
: ... O.o;;
Idran1701 (11:11:47 PM): *As it faces Arian...a torrent of liquid, the same as that left behind by the others, sprays from its mouth, splattering him*
Besyanteo (11:11:49 PM)
: IM: Oh Gods. Telepaths.
Idran1701 (11:11:50 PM)
: (d20 for Arian)
OnlineHost
(11:11:55 PM): CGNakibe rolled 1 20-sided die: 10
NebbieQ (11:11:58 PM): ...Lillium, this will do us no goo-dear gods!
Idran1701 (11:12:01 PM)
: (And no, it is talking physically. Or rather, its mouth was moving.)
CGNakibe (11:12:04 PM)
: (Someone hit Priam for me please)
Besyanteo (11:12:11 PM): (Ah. Scratch that stuff, then.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:12:21 PM)
: Ah motherfuck!
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:12:26 PM): *She's gonna be stomping it like a fire*
Idran1701 (11:12:49 PM): *Arian suddenly feels a torrent of nausea pass through his body, as his muscles begin spasming; not enough to be a danger, but enough to be an irritant*
OnlineHost
(11:12:53 PM): Idran1701 rolled 2 6-sided dice: 1 1
Idran1701 (11:13:08 PM): (The combination of nausea and muscle spasms means Arian'll be under the equivalent of a Slow spell for the next 2 rounds.)
Besyanteo (11:13:11 PM)
: Lilium, move!
Idran1701 (11:13:24 PM)
: *Lil stomps the creature, as it melts under her boot*
Besyanteo (11:13:29 PM)
: ...
CGNakibe (11:13:30 PM)
: (Then again nevermind. Priam can keep his face mostly intact, as he has atoned. >:D)
Besyanteo (11:13:33 PM): Nevermind then...
Idran1701 (11:13:39 PM)
: *She can hear a crack, but it quickly reveals itself as merely the lens of its goggles shattering under her heel*
Idran1701 (11:14:47 PM)
: *Besides the lumpy fluid even now disappearing into the air, nothing but three long coats, pairs of boots, and goggles remain to suggest the Keepers were ever here.*
Besyanteo (11:15:36 PM)
: ... I think it's past time we learned more about these 'Keepers'.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:15:48 PM)
: *Goes to pick up a pair of those goggles*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:15:52 PM): *And give them a good look over*
Idran1701 (11:16:00 PM): *Lil grabs it, and sees...they're entirely opaque.*
Idran1701 (11:16:07 PM)
: *Though glass, no light gets through them at all.*
Idran1701 (11:16:27 PM)
: *It's like obsidian.*
NebbieQ (11:17:08 PM)
: Arian?
Besyanteo (11:17:25 PM)
: *he starts to walk off*
Besyanteo (11:18:03 PM)
: *He's still not walking entirely normally*
CGNakibe (11:18:16 PM)
: *seems to be working through his muscle spasms* I'm... I... I think I'll be okay.... >.<
Idran1701 (11:19:13 PM): *Where's Guy heading? Back to the inn?*
NebbieQ (11:19:26 PM)
: Here, let me give you a hand.
Besyanteo (11:19:43 PM)
: *Either to a Library, or to find Karl; The latter being if he happens upon Karl on his way to the Library.*
CGNakibe (11:19:47 PM)
: And...and it seens we've garnered another enemy....
Idran1701 (11:19:58 PM): (d20 from Guy.)
OnlineHost
(11:20:04 PM): Besyanteo rolled 1 20-sided die: 13
Idran1701 (11:20:05 PM): (Wait, never mind.)
Idran1701 (11:20:10 PM)
: (Forgot he didn't go to Ortho.)
Besyanteo (11:20:24 PM)
: (Heh.)
Idran1701 (11:20:41 PM)
: *Marty catches up to Guy!*
Idran1701 (11:20:57 PM)
: *And meanwhile, the effect of the...toxin begins to leave Arian, as his stomach settles*
Besyanteo (11:21:06 PM)
: (Hm? I thought Neb meant Arian.)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:21:14 PM)
: Huh.
Besyanteo (11:21:17 PM): (Neb! Where is Marty headed?)
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:21:18 PM)
: *Tries puting them on*
Idran1701 (11:21:19 PM): (...If she did, then scratch!)
CGNakibe (11:21:40 PM)
: >.< Goddamn venom or whateverthe hell that was...
NebbieQ (11:21:42 PM): (I did!)
NebbieQ (11:22:01 PM)
: *Walks over to Arian, and helps support him, before leading him back to the inn*
Idran1701 (11:22:13 PM)
: *Lil slips the goggles on, and sees...her first appraisal might have been a bit off. She can just barely see a glint of light through them from light sources, but only the brightest of them around.*
Idran1701 (11:22:24 PM)
: *They may as well be truly opaque, for all the light that passes through them.*
CGNakibe (11:22:27 PM)
: Ah... Thank you. But, really, I'll be alright..
NebbieQ (11:24:08 PM): Are you sure?
Besyanteo (11:24:27 PM)
: *when he reaches the library, assuming nothing stops him,*
Idran1701 (11:24:30 PM)
: *Guy heads off, looking for the nearest library. It's a bit of effort walking, but the pain's starting to fade to a dull ache.*
Idran1701 (11:24:38 PM)
: *And no sign of Karl at all on the way.*
Besyanteo (11:24:47 PM)
: *Ah, well then. Walking along.*
CGNakibe (11:25:14 PM)
: I think so. I certainly hope so, anyway.
Besyanteo (11:26:01 PM): IM: I wonder if they'll be willing to assist me? I know they want want my snout on their book pages, but...
Besyanteo (11:26:09 PM)
: (won't want*)
Idran1701 (11:26:45 PM)
: *Meanwhile, is Lil doing anything more with the goggles?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:27:00 PM)
: *No, but she'll be heading back*
Idran1701 (11:27:45 PM): *The three return to the inn quickly enough, Melissa waiting for them with concern*
NebbieQ (11:27:46 PM)
: In that case, let us return.
Idran1701 (11:27:55 PM)
: (Switch!)
Idran1701 (11:28:05 PM): Is he all right?
SongstressEnlil (11:28:51 PM): (Arian: I have a fever, and the only cure is...more gin. You wouldn't charge a guy for his medicine, right?)
Idran1701 (11:28:59 PM): *And as they return to the inn, Guy continues walking along. It takes a bit of searching, but eventually he finds a building fairly close to the inn that seems to fit his needs.*
Besyanteo (11:29:02 PM): (Ha!)
Besyanteo (11:29:20 PM)
: (She wouldn't want him to come down with Malaria! :o)
SongstressEnlil (11:29:21 PM)
: (Melissa: Well, I guess not. Guy: Does this mean I drink free?)
Idran1701 (11:29:34 PM): *From what he can see inside, books line the walls, filling most of the space within.*
Besyanteo (11:29:57 PM): *He'll look for an attendant!*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:30:26 PM)
: Hmph. They'll be back.
Idran1701 (11:30:58 PM): *An older woman stands at the desk, looking with surprise at the quadripedal visitor*
Besyanteo (11:31:20 PM): *he nods to her* Could you assist me?
Besyanteo (11:31:57 PM)
: IM: I hate that gesture. It feels so weird to bob my head.
Besyanteo (11:32:09 PM)
: IM: But they seem to like it.
Idran1701 (11:32:29 PM)
: ...Er...well, I can try. What do you need?
Idran1701 (11:33:09 PM): *and Melissa comes out from the bar, moving to help support Arian* Karinska went upstairs to keep an eye on Dafydd, just in case there were others.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:33:26 PM): *Nods*
Besyanteo (11:33:30 PM): I need help finding any reference to the "Keepers" that might be here, and I need someone to turn pages... or your assurance that you won't mind me literally nosing through your volumes.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:33:49 PM)
: So, I take it we're all in the dark about what the hell they were event alking about?
Idran1701 (11:34:18 PM): ...Er...that's fine with me, I suppose. Afraid we don't have much in the way of organization here, though, so you'd probably need help either way.
Idran1701 (11:34:37 PM): Things tend to just stay where they're left. What are these...Keepers?
Besyanteo (11:35:35 PM): *he'll give her a breif physical description!* ... Other than that, all I know is that they seem to be emotionless. IM: Best leave out knowing about what happens when they die. ... "Die"? Bleh.
CGNakibe (11:36:00 PM)
: Ah, thank you. I'm sorry for being such a burden.
Besyanteo (11:36:39 PM): (Android Hell~)
Idran1701 (11:37:01 PM)
: A race, then? Well...let's see what we have...*coming out from behind, she begins heading down the stacks*
Besyanteo (11:37:11 PM): *he follows!*
Idran1701 (11:37:18 PM)
: No, no burden. Do you need anything, or...?
CGNakibe (11:37:40 PM): Some wine would be nice, I suppose, but that's about it.
NebbieQ (11:37:42 PM): Hmph. It is not rouble at all.
Idran1701 (11:37:42 PM)
: *and she looks to Lil* I can't say I know...Karl said they'd be coming to look for him, but he wouldn't tell me why.
CGNakibe (11:37:50 PM): ... here's hoping I can handle the glass. *mild chuckle*
Besyanteo (11:38:34 PM): (It occurs to me that Karl and Guy talked about this, and I proceeded to forget everything Guy learned.)
Idran1701 (11:39:13 PM)
: *with a slight chuckle herself, she heads back, pouring a glass for Arian and taking it over*
SongstressEnlil (11:39:20 PM): (They did!)
Idran1701 (11:41:03 PM): *And Arian has a glass of wine!*
Idran1701 (11:41:33 PM): *Meanwhile, the attendant takes Guy to the end of the shelf* ...Not a common type of thing, I assume?
Besyanteo (11:41:58 PM): I don't think so, no.
Idran1701 (11:43:09 PM)
: *nods* Well...we have some books on that.
Idran1701 (11:43:22 PM): There's one here...*she takes it down, about to hand it to him before just setting it on the floor*
Besyanteo (11:43:34 PM): *He'll get started immediately*
Idran1701 (11:43:34 PM)
: I've got others, if it doesn't do. I'll start searching for them while you read.
Besyanteo (11:43:40 PM): Thank you.
Idran1701 (11:43:47 PM)
: *she nods, and heads off!*
Idran1701 (11:43:52 PM): *and back at the inn...*
Idran1701 (11:44:19 PM): *Karin heads down* I heard you come back...Arian!
NebbieQ (11:46:23 PM): (I have to go soon.)
Idran1701 (11:46:31 PM)
: (*nod* We'll be cutting soon.)
CGNakibe (11:47:32 PM): Thank you for this excelle... Ah, Karinska. Join me for a bit of wine?
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:49:20 PM): *Stands, heading for the stairs* Thanks for watching Davey, Karin.
Idran1701 (11:50:28 PM): *nods, watching Arian* It was no problem, Lil, I was happy to help.
Idran1701 (11:50:38 PM): *to Arian* Um...all right. Are you okay?
Idran1701 (11:50:49 PM): *and Lil heads upstairs?*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:51:07 PM): *Yep!*
Besyanteo (11:52:10 PM): IM: I really should have asked Karl just what it was he knows... or they think that he knows...
Idran1701 (11:52:15 PM)
: *She returns to her room! There, she finds Davey sitting on her bed looking nervous, Thorn at his feet, watching the door cautiously.*
CGNakibe (11:52:48 PM): I will be if I get some rest, I think.
Idran1701 (11:53:03 PM): ...Lilly? Are you okay?
Idran1701 (11:53:29 PM): ...*nods, taking a seat next to Arian*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:53:48 PM): *Nods* Yeah, I'm okay.
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:53:50 PM): Are you okay?
Idran1701 (11:54:02 PM): ...*nods*
TheWaiChibiAngel (11:54:46 PM): Good.
Idran1701 (11:54:55 PM): (And it's a bit bumpy, but for Neb's sake, cut here? :O)
Besyanteo (11:55:04 PM): (Sure)
Idran1701 (11:55:05 PM)
: (Stuff with Lil and Arian here can be handled outside before next session.)
Idran1701 (11:55:11 PM): (And Guy's research.)
Idran1701 (11:55:18 PM): (XP!)
Idran1701 (11:55:54 PM): (700 XP base, and 700 XP for each for combat. Bonus XP...)
Idran1701 (11:56:18 PM): (250 for Lil in combat and for leading the Keepers away from the inn.)
Idran1701 (11:56:32 PM): (150 for Guy for taking the initiative in researching the Keepers.)
Besyanteo (11:58:41 PM): (testing)
Idran1701 (11:59:48 PM)
: (It workjed.)
Idran1701 (11:59:51 PM): (*worked)
Besyanteo (11:59:55 PM): (!)
Idran1701 (11:59:58 PM)
: (Nothing before that since "Sure" though.)
CGNakibe (12:00:35 AM): (Hmm.)
Besyanteo (12:01:10 AM): (10035 to level up. Woo.)
(12:05:45 AM) SongstressEnlil
has left the room.
(12:09:17 AM) Besyanteo has left the room.
