*Octavian is perched halfway up the mainmast, out on a spar, feet dangling, just kinda staring out over the water.*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:18:48 PM)
*There was a movement, a shuffle, a squeak and the sound of a thud and another squeak before Serendipity landed near Oct tangled in some ropes. She cleared her throat slightly and smiled* Hi. Totally meant to do that.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:19:23 PM)
*He nods, murmers* Mmhmm

Albel heads down from the docks, flickering his cigarette into the water and heading onto the boat. "Hey Deadpool, Minnie, got a fishy for you to meet."

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:21:51 PM)
*is under the water near the boat*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:21:52 PM)
Yup.. *She squirmed about and got all the ropes off, sitting there with her feet dangling. She peered down at Albel as he came onto the ship and waved some*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:23:19 PM)
"Ey waterlog...that's Minnie..." He pointed at Seren.... "And I figure Deadpool will be around."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:23:56 PM)
*Octavian is sitting next to her on a spar off from the mast*

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:24:14 PM)
*avoids carefully whatever the propellant is for this craft, stays to the side, but surfaces when she sees Delan on the boat..black gaze on those onboard, dark red hair drifting in thick dreds around her*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:24:16 PM)
(cut that he'd point out him too and call him Deadpool *sheepish*)

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:24:20 PM)
(:))

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:24:46 PM)
*She nudged Octavian slightly* See... toldya there were fish..

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:26:31 PM)
*. Octavian is perched in the rigging, about halfway up the mainmast. As his ship is boarded, he glances down, calls* Evening, Al. *and, after a glance to the mouse, he takes hold of one of the ropes dangling around the mast, tangles it a bit around his foot, and just slides the distance to the deck, rope humming through his gloved right hand. He lands hard, but after more or less freefalling that distance some level of impact is to be expected. He takes it in stride though, moving towards Al to offer a handshake.* (pics of ship on website, will link if needed :-D)

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:27:31 PM)
He'd return a firm shake to the sidhe. "Evenin' we missed ya yesterday."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:28:19 PM)
*She sighed as Oct made his way down, looking around at the ropes and making her way down a good bit slower before she made it down to the deck, peering over the edge of the ship to wave at Saviitas*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:28:24 PM)
Albel doesn't look injured however, in fact he's quite clean.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:28:30 PM)
*he offers a shrug before leaning over the rail to peer down at the swimmer, flashing a scar-twisted grin of greeting before speaking to Al* We just got our coms crossed, I bet. We ended up waiting aboard waiting for you.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:29:18 PM)
"Oh, well, can't really call from the dreaming, no cell phone and all...and well, it was a lot of irritating bullshit so probably better you got to wait here." He shrugged some, though he never seemed super concerned about anything.

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:29:43 PM)
*only the top of her head visible in the dark water, matching eyes focus on those on board..something of a lighter shadow where her body is beneath the surface..she lifts her hand to breech the dark with webbed fingers..waving back a little hesitantly*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:30:31 PM)
"You guys ain't noticed a shadow chimera of doom hanging around anywhere?" Yup, he was way too uncaring about statements like that.

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:30:52 PM)
Aren't you cold? *She called down*

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:31:13 PM)
You're welcome aboard *he calls down* Before my XO decides to try another nighttime swim and catches cold again *and back to Al* We should get Snow to craft up some mechanical messenger pigeons to carry messages for us across the boundry.

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:31:33 PM)
*a headshake..then realizing she's not sure the girl can see that movement, she calls back up* Not too cold, really. What is XO?

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:32:11 PM)
Hugs and kisses? Do you wanna come on board?

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:32:23 PM)
"That's not a bad plan...I'll have to talk to him. I think the visit and visions and shit got to him yesterday, though he should be off gaurding at the moment."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:33:06 PM)
*He shifts, leaning against the rail of the ship and lighting a cigar* Now, what about this shadow?

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:33:31 PM)
*another headshake* Not getting caught again, thank you, Hugs and Kisses need not come in water.

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:35:17 PM)
Caught? We don't have nets I don't believe so. Well I think I have a mosquito net but since you're.. what.. about.. three times as big as a mosquito I don't think we have to worry.. I can come down there if you want.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:35:31 PM)
"Well, we got down to the bottom of the place...which fuckin' sucked by the way...and after clearing out some weird machine of blood sucking doom and busting up some evil bunk shit we found a room near the balefire were there were a couple dozen sluagh having a weird shit sex orgy and we didn't quite make it in time to stop them from opening up some fucking gate." He shrugged a bit, digging for his cigarettes. "Then a bunch of shadow chimera climbed out, killed a bunch of the sluagh - a few of the stupid cunts fled, then killed each other til they made one big shadow that flew right up out of the ground like it was nothing to eat through solid stone."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:36:35 PM)
...fantastic. *he mutters smokily*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:36:46 PM)
...ew... sluagh sex..

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:37:04 PM)
*torn between listening to Albel's story and her conversation with the mouse... she drifts closer warily* Mouse drowns in water, have a ladder?

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:38:13 PM)
"It was some creepy ass shit, whatever those bendy fucks were up to down there, there's still a fire..thats what snowflake's looking after now - we're taking gaurd shifts. But whatever they did to it, it's weak as hell now compared to how it was before the shadow crap climbed out of it. Strings was going on about formori, so yeah fan-fuck-tastic is an understatement."

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:38:20 PM)
formorians*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:38:27 PM)
I do a great golden retriever impression *making a dog paddleing motion* *She looked around and tossed down a rope ladder for her to use*

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:38:50 PM)
Fomori? As in the giants we fought in Eire millenia ago?

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:39:09 PM)
"Yup, that's what she said. I'm hoping she was just wrong though."

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:39:33 PM)
He frowned when he found his pack only to discover it empty, sighing and putting it away again.

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:39:39 PM)
*notes the rope ladder and dips barely under the water to do a full circuit of the ship..the girl is -fast- in her own element as hard to track the streak of lighter color's movement as it would be to spot a dolphin at top speed*

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:39:54 PM)
They weren't shadows. They were giant ungly fuckers. *he automatically ofers Al a cigar and his lighter*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:40:52 PM)
"Oh thanks Deadpool." he offered an appreciative nod at the cigar and lighter. "Well, she said something about like a servant of a formorian or some shit too...which if it can just eat through solid stone like cloudcover it's something I ain't going after alone."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:41:29 PM)
Obviously not. Did it feel Winter, or just bad-ass?

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:42:31 PM)
"Hmm, not like banalitiy, it was a damn glamour well...but the shit was dark. It seemed sinister in a way that makes me look like a fluffy ass bunny with a pink bow."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:42:38 PM)
*She looked around for the fish-type-person, scurrying from side to side of the ship looking for where she went*

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:43:17 PM)
So we've got this giant flying thing that eats through stone? Shit.

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:43:50 PM)
((5 sux to jump! lol)) *returning to where she started, she dives. Coming up at speed, she launches herself to the ship's railing to catch hold of it in webbed fingers with a deathgrip, swinging the deadweight of her long tail up and over the side like a seasoned gymnast. She ends up sitting on the railing with her tail laid out over the hull gracefully* Nevermind..sometimes I miss.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:44:53 PM)
"Yep, good times...we have rescued what's left of the balefire, but it's pretty damn weak. We're leaving folks on guard in case any of the sluagh bitches return...." he paused to watch the fish get herself on board, nodding some. "And whatever Safety was going on about them not being real is bullshit, cause killing them was just like killing any changeling."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:44:53 PM)
*She stared at Savi and tilted her head slowly* ... holy crap it's a mermaid

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:45:38 PM)
*She looked over at Albel curiously* Were they all clones?

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:46:24 PM)
*a guarded smile to Serendipity, the end of her tailfin curling up in a nervous gesture the way some twist their fingers*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:46:35 PM)
"They were all the same yeah...and while I normally would be okay with a big orgy of female sluagh...they took shit too far even for me. They were covered in piss and feces and blood...I could chill with the later but the former two were like uh no."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:47:41 PM)
*he offers the new guest a bow, complete with a sweeping gesture with his hat* Welcome aboard the Everbright, miss. *before straightening and shifting his attention back to Al* Alright. If this thing is around, we at least have a priority. Getting Everbright armed and gating again. So we can go toe to toe with it.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:48:43 PM)
"Well sort of, one looked the same but was super sized...the giant's body is currently part of the path down to the balefire, some of the ceilings of the building part of the area fell in during the battle and well, the place is a fixer upper to say the least." He nodded to Octavian. "Well we can't just let the fucking thing out to wander, whatever it's up too, good ain't in the equation."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:49:43 PM)
If she's gating again, we can bring her to the fire. Over it at least, if there -is- an over it...and getting her cannon reinstalled would level the field a bit.

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:49:46 PM)
*manages to dip somewhat gracefully from her seat, without losing her balance and toppling to the floor* Thank you..Deadpool? *seeking the correct name..since Albel is clearly in the habit of making them up*

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:50:25 PM)
*he snickers, grins over at Savitas* Octavian Van Deraa, Captain of the airship Everbright.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:50:35 PM)
"Hard to say, I think it'll take time to figure out where over it is, but I think it's in the city.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:50:35 PM)
"

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:50:56 PM)
"We gotta find the entrance that's in the Aslyum itself too, cause we never did while we were down there."

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:51:21 PM)
Saviitas, is Savi, best. Airship? *looking down to the water they rest in as if considering going back there -immediately-*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:52:46 PM)
"There's a bunch of rivers and shit that are cold as fuck all over down there, so there's a lot of crap that needs scouting yet also."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:53:11 PM)
Don't worry, miss, she's grounded for the moment. Battle damage. *Motioning further back on the ship, where her props are bent and deep clawmarks marr her wooden skin, and scorchmarks aplenty mark her everwhere. On the deck and forward, however, most of the damage seems to have been patched or covered.* XO, think you could manage scouting and mapping for us?

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:53:50 PM)
What'm I scouting and mapping?

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:53:59 PM)
The hold they captured.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:54:14 PM)
"I'm hoping there's a water entrance somewhere too...that'd be convinient."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:54:17 PM)
*She thought about it a moment* Big or little scouting?

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:54:53 PM)
Place with horrible darkness is what you want me to find a path to? *to Albel* Giant's body and cave ins?

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:55:24 PM)
He took drags of the cigar between speaking. "Well, the darkness left...and the giant's body's only there til we build a better ramp down."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 21, 2011 11:55:43 PM)
Probably both. I'll get to work designing defences, if you want. Snow and strings should have no problem building my designs, should let them focus on the building rather then researching and drawing and shit

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:55:46 PM)
The cap doesn't seem concerned by walking down a large dead body after all.

Serendipity Jones (Jan 21, 2011 11:56:07 PM)
*She nodded slightly* I prolly could manage

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:56:42 PM)
"Yeah, I gotta go down later for my guard shift but things seem pretty clear at the moment. I think nearly getting killed by the shadow thing before it left frightened off what few of the sluagh clones remain."

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 21, 2011 11:57:15 PM)
"It'd be nice if we could find one of them too, figure out just what it is they summoned."

Saviitas (Jan 21, 2011 11:57:16 PM)
*turns that over in her head, and looks to Serendipity, waiting to ask "Minnie's" name too*
