Azu Ongokos (Feb 6, 2011 11:59:17 PM)
She smiled a bit after the mouses ball. "Well, I imagine it's good excersize."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 7, 2011 12:01:37 AM)
Still crazy. *and he looks back at Azu* They sell people sized ones you know. I think I know what to get you for your birthday now.
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:02:00 AM)
*The ball bounced and went careening down the stairs, bouncing more and more as it went down and rolled to a stop down below. A slight scrabbling noise was heard before the little field mouse clawed her way up the top step, laying there and panting before she went scurrying forward and climbed up onto Octavian's shoe*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 7, 2011 12:02:18 AM)
"I bring you a gift, and you want me to fall and break my neck." Tsks. "That's not very nice."
Azu Ongokos (Feb 7, 2011 12:03:14 AM)
She offered a polite nod to the mouse, while her chimera was still watching them both warily, a watch butterfly.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 7, 2011 12:04:03 AM)
*He reaches down to scoop up the mouse, setting her on the shoulder of his metal arm* No worry about that. The one I'm thinking of is inflatable. Soft and bouncy.
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:04:59 AM)
*She circled around on the shoulder, crawling closer to the collar so she could curl up, tiny claws holding securely to the fabric of the captain's tunic*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 7, 2011 12:05:37 AM)
She shook her head. "Incorrigible." Her butterfly, in his deep voice and Britsh accent which someone wasn't really butterfly like but thats what he had. "You should accept gifts Mistress, it's the polite thing to do remember." She sent it a frown. "Don't help."
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:06:14 AM)
*squeak squeak SQUEAK squeak squeak squeak*
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 7, 2011 12:06:50 AM)
*he laughs, softly*Says the butterfly that won't even wear the nice hat I made him *And he peers at the mouse* Need something, XO?
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:07:26 AM)
*she squeaked a few more times and pointed down the steps*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 7, 2011 12:07:44 AM)
She sipped her coffee, watching curiously.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 7, 2011 12:08:32 AM)
You need down to change? *Asked as he brings his hand back up to the mouse*
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:09:10 AM)
*She climbed onto the hand, scurrying over to his fingertips, leaning forward and pointing a paw forward, tail flicking and squeaking!*
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 7, 2011 12:10:51 AM)
I think I'm being commanded like a horse. I'll be right back. Unless you want to come sit in my cabin? *said to Azu as he gives the mouse a scritch between the ears*
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:11:52 AM)
*At the scritch she flopped on the fingers and lolled like a happy little rodent*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 7, 2011 12:11:55 AM)
She shook her head, not wanting to intrude. "I can wait." And she'd take up a spot against the railing, staring at the ocean. Rolling her eyes at some soft mutter from her butterfly.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 7, 2011 12:13:29 AM)
*He walks Serendipity to her cabin, setting her down in front of the door before returning to the deck to wait with Azu* I seriously wonder where she finds these toys. *said as he pads up behind said Eshu*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 7, 2011 12:15:02 AM)
"Well, I'd imagine at a pet store." Azu commented, enjoying her star/ocean gazing. The butterfly though was watching him, possibly glaring, can a butterfly glare?
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:16:43 AM)
*She sighed as she finally squeezed under her door, hopping out a few moments later as she pulled her boots on* EVIL BALL!
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 7, 2011 12:17:20 AM)
Good point. *he mutters, huffing softly before fishing out a cigar and lighting it. He pointedly ignores the butterfly's glare. When the mouse returns, he glances over his shoulder at her* What did you expect, XO?
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:17:57 AM)
That! *she said pointing at where the ball lay at the bottom of the stairs* Is -so- false advertising!
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 7, 2011 12:18:22 AM)
How's that? It's a ball. For hamsters.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 7, 2011 12:18:28 AM)
"Looked interesting." Azu admitted as she turned around, her butterfly skittering over to be on whatever one of her shoulders was facing Oct so it could continue it's watch.
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:19:10 AM)
"Have fun and exercise your pet" /deathtrap/!
Azu Ongokos (Feb 7, 2011 12:20:01 AM)
She sipped her coffee to cover too much of a smile. Used to ignoring her butterfly crawling about her person it seemed.
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:20:34 AM)
*Seren's eyes kept slipping over to the butterfly, licking her lips slightly though she didn't seem completely aware she was doing it*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 7, 2011 12:21:24 AM)
The butterfly started to include Seren in it's angry looks, it was a busily glaring little thing.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 7, 2011 12:21:34 AM)
Yes. It is fun. For those of us watching you rolling helplessly down the stairs.
Serendipity Jones (Feb 7, 2011 12:22:25 AM)
I will eat you.. *she stated simply to the butterfly before looking back at Octavian. Her ears folded back, overly-large eyes got even larger and rounder and her tail curled around her leg as she sniffed* ... you'd let me fall to my -doom-? DOOM?

Butterflies are crunchy it's okay. *She smiled brightly, then promptly went back to pathetic looking sad-face of doom at Oct*
Capt'n do we hafta beat someone?
No. But I will let you flail about inside the ball. I didn't figure you were heavy enough to hurt yourself bouncing down those short fall steps. But if you're so worried about your ball-y doom, I'll come up with something. *then, to the butterfly* You're safe here, little brother. As safe as the XO and I can make you. You've my word on that. Here, among all places, you can relax. A little. *and back to the pooka* No. He's just doing what he feels is his job. I can't fault that.
Did the butterfly make the bruise or do I hafta eat somebody?
There was a small flare of glamour around the butterfly and it fell to the floor, though, now it looked like a large (dog-sized) black cat, with a set of crystaline armor fit perfectly around it's body, flowing with it. Then it licked it's lips at Seren. Azu sighed. "It wasn't nameless, and must you take things so personally?" The new chimera didn't reply.
A set of wings were settled on the sides of the cat as well, but blended almost perfectly into the rest of it's form until it shifted a little.
*She eyed the cat-now and lifted an eyebrow* I have a boot.. and you're surrounded by water..
It yawned at her.
You will calm yourself, nameless, or I will remove you from my ship. Unless you're just playing with my XO. In that case, continue. *and, to Serendipity* You too. No antagonizing our guests, it's rude.
*She stomped her feet a moment and sulked* Aww! But I was havin' fun... always gotta go messin' up my fun.
As long as our guest -knows- you're playing, I don't mind. But I suspect he's in no mood to play after recent events.
"He'll be fine, he always takes threats of being eaten a bit personally." Azu shook her head at her chimera. "And I'm fine Miss Seren, I just had a small incident."
Hmm.. *She sighed and went padding out of the room suddenly, going back down to her room. A few moments later she returned yet again and flopped down to the floor, opening the sardine can and offering some out to the kitty* A small incident with someone's fist or foot? I'll eat 'em!
*He smirks a bit, watching his XO offer the salty peace offering*
Nameless would sniff at the food, then eat daintily after a moment of thought. "I was assaulted by a troll teenager, though I believe nameless frightened him off rather well." The cat harumphed while it ate, hackles raising then falling at the reminder.
Do we need to eat him? *looking up at Octavian*
I'd prefer to find out -why- he did what he did. It's better to rehabilitate someone then eat them right off. If he was being manipulated, or was desperate, we would punish him slightly less severely
She shook her head. "It is not needed."

((*peeks*))
*The trio is aboard, chilaxin' to music*
Nameless finished his snack, sniffing around the can just a moment before sitting on his haunches next to Azu and returning to keeping an evil kitty eye on Octavian.

It's not needed, maybe, but we know he'll never be caught by mortal authorities...and even if he does, we'd probably want to pull his ass out to prevent him from Forgetting. It's just...the right thing to do. To seek some manner of justice.
She frowned a bit, and while she didn't argue, she didn't agree either.
If you've got an opinion, Azu, I'd like to hear it. I've got no real right to do any justice-ing in the city, anyway, so unless he stumbles aboard the Everbright, it's not like I'll ever see him to punish him.
She shook her head. "I just don't wish him ill, I figure he probably had some reason for why he did it. Not that it was a good thing."
I'm not a hardliner, Azu. I'm not gonna cut off his hands because he tried to rob you to feed his sickly gramma. If he wanted to snag your shit to bait you to chase him so he could force himself on you in some shady alley...well...it still won't be his hands I remove.
*and, perhaps surprisingly (even for Seren, who knows him a little better) the chill in his voice is far colder then he usually seems. Far colder*
*If it surprised Seren it didn't show, her tail flicking around, baiting Nameless as he padded around to get used to the form*
She shook her head a little bit. "Either way, I doubt he'll be around the area again, nameless claws him up a bit before he ran off."
(man I'm good at being redundant today)
He's gonna fly on my face, I just know it.
(it's ok, you're just being thourough! :-D )
If he does, XO, you may bite him a little. But he might bite you back. *he stretches out his arm, the metal one, frowning absently at it* Anyone want more coffee? I need to top mine up/
Okay *Her tail thumped a little bit as she grinned, considering a moment* Do we still have some cocoa?
I restocked the cocoa-tin yesterday. There's also regular powder for chocolate milk. You know I like to keep a lot on board.
*Her grin widened even more* Mmm..
Hot cocoa then? Or want some in your coffee? *asked as he stalks in towards the coffee machine*
Surprise me?

(Azu's ghosting)
(ook :-(. Well, oct's getting coffee refils!
(I missed any posts after my last, til a st is about I'll just post on my ooc here)
(I miss anything other than coffee refills?)
(newp)
(okies)
(Seren talking about being pounced IN THE FACE by nameless.
(lol, he would go for the throat not the face...)
(LOL)
*He returns a few moments later with coffee for himself and a cup of cocoa with a cinnamon stick stirrer-slash-gnawing thing for the pooka* Here, XO.
*She -beamed- and took the cup, sipping it slowly and mixing between gnawing on the cinnamon stick and sipping the cocoa*
Azu seemed to remember something. "Miss Serendipity, would you like to accompany myself and Captain Octavian on a quest for the fountain of youth?" All the reminders of coffee and she took an appreciative sip of her own. Nameless finally settled back near Azu and returned to giving Octavian the death look.
Um.. maybe? I'm not gonna end up with a normal sized head on a baby-sized body am I?
"I'd hope not. I'm still studying on it, so it will likely be a bit of time before I'm able to begin."
*She nodded slightly* ..maybe?
She offered a nod to that.
It's more for the quest then the goal. Even if we can't dig up information, I still want to go into the dream soon. We need materials to continue Everbright's repairs.

(ty)
(wb)
(ty again ;) )
"It should be an interesting quest if nothing else." She grinned a bit. "And if you'd like Captain Octavian, I can cast a wisp, might help you find specific things you are looking for."
It's usually just wander around until you spot something good. Like ore. Right now, I need metal to replate Everbright's hull.
She smiled at some mental image but nodded more thoughtfully.
...What? *he asks, glancing at Azu, curious expression on his scarred features*
She shook her head negatively. "Just was thinking."
Metal's not nearly as much fun.. much harder to gnaw..
"Probably wouldn't taste very good either."
We can look for good wood, too. Add some features, and let you gnaw the everliving shit out of the scraps.
YAY! Yummy wood!
She sipped her coffee again, frowning some as she notes her chimera glaring and nudges it with foot. Finally nameless lays down with a huff.
Eventually, I'll invent some kind of regenerating teething ring for you.
Only if it tastes good
Of course. *he ponders a moment, then asks Azu* Alright, Azu, failing the fountain, what would you want to quest for?
"Fail? Eshu don't fail to find anything, it might just take us a while." Azu commented with a grin.
*he waggles a hand* I mean if you can't find any information within a short time. I still want to go into the dream, so I'll come up with secondary targets.
"I haven't been in the local dreaming for some time, I know a lot of the land west of the city used to be swamp, and a might awful to walk even with a silver path."
*he grins* Azu...think about for a second.
She rolled her eyes at him. "I know it's to be expected here, but the dreaming doesn't always compliment the world."
No, no. We don't -walk- in the dreaming, Azu. *he grins* We ride in style.
She paused then nodded accent to that. "Fair point. I'm more accustomed to walking."
We can put you in the crow's nest. The wind in your hair will settle your urge to walk.
"Sounds like fun at any rate."
She'd glance up toward the crows nest, just inspecting it.
My XO knows. There's nothing quite so exhilerating as clipping along at twenty knots, a few hundred feet over the earth.
*She just GRINNED* And jumping off it into the water.. wheeee
That got her to grin a bit, the eshuess looking back down. "I suppose I'll have to wear something a bit warmer though."
I'm sure my XO will take you shopping for altitude gear. She'll probably need to update her own.
"Sounds good, I need to tell her to keep better watch on the things you attach to Everbright." Teasing.
*She clutched the cap and goggles on her head* Nu uh! They're perfect!
A jacket, XO, and warm pants. Remember how cold it gets at ten thousand feet.
Oh. Oooh new jackets.. mmm.. burrowing..
I have tail covers!
We need to see if we can get you a...sword? Do you use a sword? I never bothered to ask.
She observed, nursing her coffee.
Me or her?
You, XO. I'm sure Azu just throws nameless at people.
Oh. Um.. I guess I can make do with one if I really have to..
What do you prefer?
Nameless returned to glaring. Azu commented lightly, mostly to herself. "I have a knife."
Rapier?
Rapier, alright. Saber acceptable, or strictly rapier ?
Either or
Ok. So that's one weapon to worry about. If Faith comes through...which I'm not sure about...I'll have something for myself.
*She nodded somewhat and laid back on the floor, stretching otu slowly*
Nameless watched Seren lay down, tail waving a bit and the cat bending a bit lower to the ground.
Mmm.. gnawing kitty time..
*he snickers to himself* Now to figure out how to pay for things. I don't even know any swordsmiths in the city. Snow says he does guns but not pokey things...I think
Nameless pounced onto Seren's chest, then laid back down. Azu just watched, apparently not used to her chimera acting catlike.
*She squeaked and promptly laughed, reaching up and scritching Nameless' head, rubbing lightly* Good kitty..
If I had a forge...*he mutters*
His fur was a bit sharp if rubbed against it's natural flow but otherwise soft. He started to purr a bit though, odd creature he was. Azu shook her head. "I don't know if there's one in the city, though if there is one at the hold that Dee and Roy run, I doubt they'd consider you welcome."
I doubt it. Though, to be honest, I was considering offering Everbright's services to them, at a premium.
"I'd just be wary." Expression concerned as she thought about that possibility.
I'm always wary. But i need money to hire a crew. And money , unfortunately, doesn't grow on trees. Everbright's been a privateer before. She'd manage, doing it again.
She nodded, thought still seemed worried.
..If there were another power to hire on with, trust me, I'd do it.
"I must admit such options are limited here."
Yeah. It's a strange sensation feeling trapped while living on a fucking ship.
She smiled some. "Well, you could always explore on land a bit. Walking around New Orleans always tends to be interesting if nothing else."
Ugh. -Walking-? *he says, in his best feigned tone of disgust*
"If you'd like I'll come along, I'll even slow down so you don't run out of breath trying to keep up."
Maybe I'll build a walking machine to move my legs for me.
"We could rent you a wheelchair or a Segway."
I would never be able to live with myself if I rode a segway unironically.
"I think it'd be a bit amusing. Get you in your captain's hat, and a scarf. Video would be needed."
I'd have to carve a little figurehead to mount on the front. Maybe a big nautical steering wheel.
She nodded approvingly. "A majestic picture."
See, that'd be ok. Living the satire of my own seriousness.
"It would be pretty amusing. Perhaps you could use it for advertising."
Serve as my own barker. It's good I have no shame.
"I can see you making rounds up and down the docks." Sipping her coffee, and seeming to have some mental picture of it given the amused glint in her eye.
I'd need a giant foam sword to wave around menacingly.
She pondered but shook her head. "I can't picture you with a foam sword..." But she could everything else?
Hmm. *he sighs, rubbing his face, grinning ruefully* My classmates would never let me live it down, if they saw me.
Eat 'em..
"It does seem to be a catch all answer."
Indeed. I think my XO is practicing her Redcapinese. TO better attract a redcappy mate.
*She glowered at Octavian*
Azu raised a brow. "People of all interests in the world I suppose."
*He glares right back at Serendipity, for a moment* I've no say in the love life of my XO. Unless she's taking advantage of one of her inferiors.
We don't have any!
Azu grinned a little as she watched them, but again took a well timed sip of her coffee.
But we will recruit a crew, preferably soon.
Besides, I have no love life to discuss, so nyah
*he smirks* Not for lack of his trying. *and sips his own coffee*
Her expression was more curious as she glanced between them.
*She rolled her eyes* There's been no trying!
"Is having an unwanted admirer an application requirement?"
*he waggles his hand, lighting a cigar a moment later* It's of no consequence. Anyway. No, it is not, miss Azu. It is, however, something for me to tease about.
"One has to wonder." She commented, shaking her head. (ooh hubby made bacon...*steals*)
(Ok, I loves ya but I has to go sleepies
(nini then!)
(night! :) nameless will be sad to lose his pillow)
(She could say there and just fall asleep, Oct would likely either carry her to her room or just drape a blanket on her)
(*nod*)
(nini :) )

*Oct takes a few puffs on his cigar, peering up at the sky for a long moment*
Azu half turned so she could still face those she was speaking to but glance to sea sometimes. "Difficult not to miss it."
Not to miss what, Azu?
"Being out there dancing across the horizon, as opposed to sitting on the bench, as it were."
Shit yes. I feel...helpless. Static. It is not a comfortable feeling.
She leaned on the rail, with her back to the sea this time, but looking up. "I can understand the sentiment."
I could up and leave Ever here. She'd dissapear into the dreaming, find a new captain. But...well...I won't. It's just not in me.
"If you left I wouldn't know what to call you anymore." She smiled a bit, then more serioiusly added. "I'm certain you'll get her fixed up."
*he nods, smiling* Yeah. Just a little more work on her hull..which is waiting on materials...and more work in her cogitors...restoring her memory. That I can do now. -AM- doing now.
"It is all right for you to take a break now and again as well. I imagine she can sense you're frustration and that likely doesn't make her feel any better either. I know nameless tends to worry too much, but he tends to know when somethings amiss even if I haven't said anything."
but he also tends*
Maybe. There's so much damage to her cogitors though. Half the time, I'm not sure she remembers herself. It's like...It's like recovering from a stroke, I guess. Or traumatic brain injury. *tapping his own head here*
"Have you thought about looking for someone with Heather Balm?"
*he shakes his head a bit* It's not healing like that. Everbright regenerates...heals...like almost any other chimera. Whatever this is, it's not healing like that. My repairs are working though.
She nodded. "I wish I could do more to help."
If you knew clockworks, I could have you help with the repairs. *He waggles his hand* But it's no reall worry. It's happening, albeit slowly. The thing making me feel trapped most of all is the lack of crew.
"I'm surprised you haven't had more volunteers. If I wasn't so tied to this place I would have signed up already." She smiled some. "Though I haven't seen any others of my kith here."
No. Closest I've come is Antoine...but he chose the Parliment over my galley.
"The chef?" She seemed to be uncertain on placing him.
Yup.
Then she nodded. "I imagine if there were more eshu, you'd have more numbers."
Probably. Most of the last crew was Eshu, Pooka, Nockers and Boggans. the Bos'n was a troll, as was the gunnery officer. One sluagh.
"Well, I'm sure there's a sluagh that's thinking about it."
*He snorts* Ironic thing is, no. Already turned me down. As soon as she found out I'd never date a crewmember.
"Ah." Azu nodded. "Fair enough, you'll scare off a bunch of prospects that way."
*He just kinda blinks at her, then shakes his head* Fuck that.
She laughed. "It was a compliment."
...oh. Ok. Thank you for that. (eek, past my bedtime. Time to flee! If you'll be on tomorrow, I'll be around same sidhe-time, same sidhe-channel. And, best of all, no work for a few days after that)
(heh okies, I'll catch you later :) )
