Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:14:04 PM)
Janelle was lying on the bed, looking up at the ceiling with a blank expression, in the room that she'd claimed as her own for the time being.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:14:17 PM)
Rat-a-tat! There's a knock on the door. Seems Craig's house has a visitor...a certain little street urchin, hoping for more brownies, maybe. Amber's dressed in new, brightly colored clothes, a grin on her pale face.
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:15:00 PM)
An instant later the door opens and Janelle's face peeks out. "Hi. We've met, right?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:15:31 PM)
"Yeah!" Amber smiles. "The other night. You're the right half. Or the left half? I think as there was an argument as to which."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:16:13 PM)
"I'm definitely the right." She opens the door for her. "Welcome to my temporary abode where others also live."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:17:58 PM)
She grins, stepping through. "That's what my place is like. Ceilidh was real nice, and took me in." She looks around in wonder at the place, not able to get over how cool it is. "So I guess as you're real new?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:18:50 PM)
"Nope! I'm real old, in a new body. Cool, huh?" She walks over to the sofa and hops down to sit in it. It's sat on. "I'm still remembering stuff though."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:20:52 PM)
She grins, jumping up beside Janelle on the sofa. Flop! "That is as cool. Must be weird, though. Changing bodies, and stuff."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:21:26 PM)
"Nope, because I just started remembering things after I fell out of a window two years ago."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:25:04 PM)
.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:27:39 PM)
"Oh..." Amber blinks. "How come you fell out the window?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:28:53 PM)
"I was running away from a terrible place that will not be named." She bows to her in silence. "How about you? What's your grand story?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:32:39 PM)
Amber smiles. "Something like that, actually. The fire's as...it's like a part of me. I ran off cause my folks were trying to make me be just like them, and they were boring. I...when I'm looking at the fire, I as see more than just it. I feel like I can as see everything, and its as all like me and the fire underneath. I'm as real new - don't remember nothing from before this time and this life."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:33:21 PM)
"I'm guessing you either have a Primal Essence or a Dynamic one, right?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:35:37 PM)
Amber blinks. "A what?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:36:06 PM)
"Your Avatar probably is a primal essence or a dynamic one." She says again, as if that explains everything.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:40:45 PM)
""What's an Avatar?" Amber asks. "I'm guessing it ain't one of those big blue things on TV."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:42:13 PM)
"What big blue things on TV? There are big blue things on TV? When? Where!?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:45:13 PM)
"There's some movie with really big special effects and stuff, called Avatar. I saw commercials about it." Amber looks thoughtful. "But I don't really know what it's about."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:45:52 PM)
She leans close to her, "Did you finish high school?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:47:01 PM)
Amber shakes her head. "No." A curious glance at Jan. "Did you?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:47:15 PM)
"Nope. Why didn't you?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:54:29 PM)
.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:54:50 PM)
"I didn't want my parents as to find me. Plus, the teachers were basically just as bad, and the guidance counselor as..." She shakes her head. "I ain't sure as I want to finish. Maybe as someday I'll learn lots of stuff and take the test as makes it so it's like you've gone." She glances to Jan. "What about you?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:55:42 PM)
"I just didn't want to go anymore. I'm not going to use it for anything. I'll be a gymnastic."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 5:58:09 PM)
"ReallY?" Amber grins broadly at her. "Like in the olympics?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 5:58:28 PM)
"Yep, I want to go to the nationals, then the olympics!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:00:01 PM)
"Wow...that'd be neat! I'll as be cheering for you. Are you really good?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:00:53 PM)
"Not really, but I'm going to find a coach here. Craig wanted to train me, but he's not into the competitions so he won't know what the judges want."

((Sorry...my computer was unhappy with me for trying to run something. Repost?))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:08:14 PM)
(Sure!)
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:09:45 PM)
"Not really, but I'm going to find a coach here. Craig wanted to train me, but he's not into the competitions so he won't know what the judges want."

Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:17:13 PM)
(sorry about that!)
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:17:46 PM)
((It's okay!))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:18:07 PM)
(Did Amber reply?)
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:18:09 PM)
She nods. "That's cool! I hope you find a good one."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:18:35 PM)
"Thanks! You like fire, right?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:19:00 PM)
She grins. "Yeah! And I been thinking of learning gymnastics."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:19:59 PM)
"It's the new cool thing. What are you going to use it for?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:20:39 PM)
"I like climbing stuff," Amber says. "Getting to places folks ain't supposed to be able to get into. Wouldn't hurt to have better balance and stuff."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:21:51 PM)
"You're a monkey or something? People aren't supposed to climb things."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:22:40 PM)
"Sure they is!" She grins. "That's just as what they want you to think. You can climb stuff as anywhere...and get into stuff as nobody else can."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:23:22 PM)
"Stealth-like?" She asks.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:23:45 PM)
She nods. "Yeah...sometimes." She smiles. "My friends as taught me good."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:24:19 PM)
"Man, your English is wacked though."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:24:58 PM)
She chuckles. "I know. I started talking like this- now it's as a habit."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:26:08 PM)
"I need to watch myself so that I don't copy you! Bad luck for me..." She leans back on the arm of the sofa, curling up, "What're you doing for work?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:27:24 PM)
"I can try to talk normal, I guess." She smiles. "If you want. Just takes thinking about it." She shakes her head. "I ain't found work or nothing yet."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:28:09 PM)
"How are you surviving? I have nothing, so I really need a job."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:28:55 PM)
"Ceilidh's been taking care of me. She's real nice." Amber shrugs. "I do odd jobs for folks as I know sometimes, but they ain't worth lots."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:30:09 PM)
"Mooch." She teases, poking her with a toe.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:30:46 PM)
Amber squeaks, throwing up her hands defensively. "I ain't a mooch! Well...maybe as I am...but don't tell no one!"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:31:46 PM)
"But they're figure out eventually!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:33:07 PM)
She grins. "Yeah, well...some folks like helping others." She shrugs. "Would offend them as not to accept."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:34:37 PM)
"That's so true!" She agrees, perking up. "Really, you're offering your services as someone that just happens to be jobless and poor, and they need to you to so that they can take care of someone. It's the nature of the world."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:35:50 PM)
Amber grins. "Ex-actly," she proclaims. "Sometime as I'll figure stuff out on my own. But I think Ceilidh'll still as want to take care of me." She shrugs.
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:36:45 PM)
"What was that slave stuff what's-his-face was talking about with you before?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:37:18 PM)
"Slave...stuff?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:37:36 PM)
Amber blinks. "What slave stuff?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:38:16 PM)
"Someone was talking about something, and I heard "Not being a slave." It was only yesterday or whatever. You don't remember?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:39:33 PM)
She shakes her head. "I ain't sure. Maybe Isabel said something like that when we were talking about the Traditions?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:40:38 PM)
She nods, "That's probably it. I hear stuff, and vamoosh out of my head it goes!" She flicks her hands at her head. "So, like, I heard them saying they want you to talk to the Hermetics?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:41:32 PM)
She chuckles. "Stuff like that happens to me all the time." Then she nods. "Yeah...they think as I'd like them, I guess. Don't know nothing about them, but Tarra's real nice."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:42:28 PM)
"They're supposed to throw fireballs, but they're all about reading books and studying to learn, and we don't even have high school, so I don't think the Hermetics are very cool for people like us."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:43:08 PM)
"Oh." Amber frowns. "Really? That ain't so good...what would you as recommend?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:43:46 PM)
"I dunno. Maybe something more touch-feely, like the ones that just do what feels good. They're into drugs and stuff, though."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:44:26 PM)
Amber tilts her head to one side. "Drugs as get expensive," she says. "I don't mind being round folks as are on them, though."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:45:14 PM)
"See! That could be the way you go. Or you could get into the witches. They grow plants and live with nature, but they kill cats."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:45:51 PM)
Amber shudders. "Why would anyone as need to kill cats?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:46:25 PM)
"Something about sacrifice. They kill all kinds of stuff for the blood! OooooOOOooo." She waggles her fingers at Amber. 'Scary.'
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:47:11 PM)
Amber laughs. "Well...I don't as like hurting things. Even as just animals. So I don't think I'll as end up there." She looks to Janelle. "What about the one as you are? Craig said it meant you was warriors or something?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:48:57 PM)
"Yep, but mine is weird. Anyway, how about the Dreamtalkers? They're, like, Ancient, and they like nature, and they do everything on the cheap. Plus! You get DRUMS." She says with wide eyes. "Drums are awesome, by the way."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:50:10 PM)
Amber laughs. "Drums? I don't think as I could play drums."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:50:36 PM)
"It's really easy." She thwaps the sofa cushion. "It's a drum!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:51:44 PM)
She chuckles. "And I ain't never left the city...ain't sure how well I'd do with nature and stuff."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:53:23 PM)
"Well, like, the problem with my group is that we're very strict, you know? And calm, and cool, and collected, and really badass. You're like, cute, and small, and like a kitten..."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:54:44 PM)
Amber laughs. "Yeah...I wouldn't as fit in there, for sure."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:55:26 PM)
"Unless you became a catgirl, or a maid. Those stereotypes would work just fine." She nods seriously in thought.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:55:59 PM)
Amber blinks. "What?" she asks.
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:57:29 PM)
"The group is originally from Asia, hey? Anime stereotypes? Anime? No? You've never watched it? Whatever." She rolls her eyes. "We get ninja swords and do flips."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 6:59:06 PM)
She shakes her head. "Nope! But that's neat! Are you a real life ninja?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 6:59:56 PM)
"Nope! But I can speak the old style of Japanese, and I can hit Craig on the head with a wooden sword!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:00:32 PM)
She grins. "Awesome! I can't speak Japanese. And I don't got a sword...I can throw a punch though?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:01:11 PM)
"Our punches are better, because we get to say 'Ninja!' before everything we do. Ninja punch! Ninja kick!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:01:56 PM)
Amber laughs. "That as helps?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:02:20 PM)
"Totally. It's our magic." She nods very seriously.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:03:04 PM)
"Wow..." Amber takes her completely at her word. "That's neat! Me, I just want as to figure out how to hide better."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:04:11 PM)
She looks around quickly, then grins at her, "Can't you just clear your mind and disappear?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:05:53 PM)
She shakes her head. "Nope! Even if I as could, I'd have to light a fire first."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:06:26 PM)
"What if it was a quiet fire? Like a candle?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:06:55 PM)
She shrugs. "You want as I should try?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:07:43 PM)
"Sure!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:09:55 PM)
"Okay..." She pulls a squashy candle and a zippo lighter out of her pocket. With great ceremony, she places the candle down and lights it. ((Want me to roll for the magic she's doing?))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:10:25 PM)
(Sure! Just in case it fails and hilarity happens. ^_^)
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:11:22 PM)
((Okay...now I have to figure out what to roll. XD))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:11:53 PM)
(^_^)
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:19:25 PM)
((So many rules...))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:19:37 PM)
((I can help if you want!))
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:19:43 PM)
((Please!))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:20:07 PM)
((What's she doing?))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:20:34 PM)
((She just picks some spheres, rolls her Arete, and Voila! Magic!))
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:21:24 PM)
((Well...she's concentrating on vanishing, but she doesn't have exactly a practical way to do it...so my thought is she's using Forces 2 to make the candle light up in a blinding flash. I figured out I roll Arete, and that the difficulty is 6, but not paradox or number of suxx I need))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:22:13 PM)
(1 sux is easy stuff, 2 sux is standard stuff, 3 sux is pretty cool stuff, 4 sux is really big stuff.)
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:22:32 PM)
((I'm guessing this is easy stuff?))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:22:47 PM)
(Nope! Standard stuff. Easy stuff is like, trival things.)
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:22:55 PM)
((Ah, okies.))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:24:12 PM)
((What spheres is she using?))
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:24:57 PM)
((Forces 2))
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:25:19 PM)
((And I'm thinking this is vulgar, so two points of paradox for her.))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:25:25 PM)
((She could wrap light around herself to turn invisible.))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:25:49 PM)
(And yep, two paradox.)
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:26:00 PM)
(But that only affects you at the end of the scene, says the house rules.)
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:26:34 PM)
((Okay!))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:26:51 PM)
(And resonance makes it easier if you work in burning!)
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:27:27 PM)
(And make the effect really cool looking, since it's vulgar anyway. Might as well make it awesome!)
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:28:12 PM)
(And pfft, pages 207 to 209 are all you really need...)
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:28:26 PM)
((Hehe...alright. Let's hope this roll succeeds, otherwise I have to start reading the botchign rules. ^^;;))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:29:00 PM)
(Then fun stuff happens!)
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:29:05 PM)
((Hmm...only 1 suxx. Now what?))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:29:21 PM)
(She can keep going. She just takes longer.)
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:29:38 PM)
(or, it's only half successful. Whichever.)
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:34:19 PM)
The fire flares up on the candle wick, higher than it should ever be able to. Streaks of white race through it like lightning, coalescing in a blinding flash that leaves spots behind Jan's eyes. In the moment of the flash, she can feel the couch cushions moving, and hear a faint thump as Amber falls off over the back of it.
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:35:15 PM)
She blinks back light, trying to see, "Uh, cool?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:36:27 PM)
Behind the couch, Amber rubs her eyes. "Kind of...I as got blinded, too. Don't think as that were supposed to happen..."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:36:51 PM)
She looks back to where the voice was coming from, "Hi!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:37:56 PM)
Amber waves up at her sheepishly, still visible. "Couldn't as figure out how to make myself invisible...so I thought as I'd just have it give me time to hide."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:38:39 PM)
"Neat trick. It's like a distraction!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:39:18 PM)
"Yeah...I've never as tried that before!" She smiles. "Prolly as have something funny happen to me later, though."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:39:48 PM)
"Are you going to try it again to practice?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:41:40 PM)
"Not as right now..." Amber says. "It's as more flashy than I really as want. I'd rather figure out a way as folks could put down to coincidence or something."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:42:11 PM)
"You could make the room grow darker so that it's easier to hide." She says, looking around.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:44:18 PM)
"Or maybe make it as less likely folks'll look where I've gone..." Amber says thoughtfully.
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:44:31 PM)
"How can you do that?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:45:14 PM)
"With cards, usually," Amber says. "Well. Burning them, mostly."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:45:33 PM)
"Yeah, but controling people's minds like that is hard..."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:47:10 PM)
"Is it as controlling minds, though?" Amber asks. "Or just as chance? Maybe as I could just find out as which hiding spots folks ain't so likely to look in."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:47:36 PM)
"Oh, that's a good one! How do you do that?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:48:18 PM)
"Well...usually as I can figure out the chances of stuff with cards."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:49:01 PM)
"That's the sphere of Entropy, but I call it Order."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:49:26 PM)
"Order?" Amber asks, tilting her head to one side. "What do you mean?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:49:54 PM)
"It's the power of fate." She says with a shrug, "Or better yet, Karma."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:50:31 PM)
She nods. "I been thinking of it as luck."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:51:36 PM)
"That too! That's all that part of the world. Cool, huh? You can change people's fate."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:52:02 PM)
"Yeah!" She grins. "It's as pretty neat. And not just people..."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:52:53 PM)
"Not just people? What else?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:54:11 PM)
"Buildings and stuff," Amber says. "I use it all the time to figure out as how a fire's gonna burn."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:54:51 PM)
"That's neat." She leans back on the sofa and looks up into the air, "But, like, what's the point?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:55:41 PM)
Amber blinks, looking startled that she'd even ask. "What do you mean, what's the point?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:56:10 PM)
"Of burning things? It doesn't do anything."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:56:30 PM)
"I like burning things. It's pretty."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:56:57 PM)
"That's cool, but, like, what's the end goal, you know?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 7:58:51 PM)
She blinks. "It's like you're as asking me the end goal of breathing."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 7:59:57 PM)
She grins, "I totally am!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:00:32 PM)
"It's important to me," Amber says. "It's as what I do. It's as the way magic is. I only as ever see it in the fire."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:01:05 PM)
"What exactly are you seeing in magic? What's fire to you?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:02:39 PM)
"It's...hard as to explain," Amber says. "It's as this big thing...bigger than me, but maybe as I can be a part of it? I think if I as didn't do it, I'd as just be empty, and not-me."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:03:31 PM)
"You're not in control of yourself. That's all I hear." She points her with a toe. "But hey, you're fire. I bet you're not supposed to be."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:04:23 PM)
She blinks. "I ain't?" She just looks puzzled at Jan's assertions.
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:05:23 PM)
She shrugs, "Hey, I'm not so dumb. I got all kinds of memories in my head. And there are all kinds of Awakened. You're a fire monster, destined to burn everything. That's cool."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:06:12 PM)
Amber blinks again. "No, I ain't!" she protests forcefully. "Fire as ain't...it ain't like that. Not as to me."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:07:12 PM)
She grins, "Then prove it, hey? I dunno how you can prove me wrong, you know? Not like you got logic or whatever to back you up. You're living fire!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:07:51 PM)
Amber frowns. "I ain't living fire..." She pokes at her skin, just to make sure. "I'm as still a person, ain't I? And I don't hurt folks."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:09:14 PM)
"Fires don't hurt people usually. I mean, this place has a furnace, and everyone uses cars to get around and they have fires in them. People go camping all the time and use fires to keep warm so they can make out and get drunk!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:09:50 PM)
She grins. "Exactly!"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:10:07 PM)
"So being living fire is cool! See?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:10:29 PM)
"But I ain't living fire," Amber protests with a frown.
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:11:57 PM)
"I mean, like, your soul. I'm being metaphorical, like a sage or a hermit or something. Your soul, hey?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:12:50 PM)
Amber shakes her head. "I ain't sure what you're talking about. But I think as you ain't right."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:13:28 PM)
"Hey, if you say so." She shrugs and laughs, rolling back and laying limp on the arm of the sofa.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:13:54 PM)
Amber just gives her a puzzled, discomfited look.
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:14:54 PM)
"Pfft." She scoffs, stretching.
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:15:34 PM)
"What?" Amber asks, climbing back onto the sofa and leaning back.
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:16:18 PM)
"Nothing. I tried being wise and I totally failed. I sounded dumb!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:17:26 PM)
"I don't know as you sounded dumb." Amber shrugs. "I just think as you don't know me enough to say, is all. You know more than me bout magic, though."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:18:06 PM)
"Pfft! I'm only as strong as you are."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:18:26 PM)
"You think?" Amber asks. "How can you tell?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:19:18 PM)
"From what I saw you do! I can do the same thing."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:20:38 PM)
"Oh," she says. "Well, you still as know lots of stuff I don't. Bout traditions and spheres and stuff."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:22:07 PM)
"Totally, but that's because I have past lives in my head. if you had the same thing, you'd be like me too."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:22:29 PM)
"Maybe," Amber shrugs. "I just gotta hope folks steer me the right way."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:23:28 PM)
"Hey, who knows. Maybe you'll be a loner type forever, doing your own thing. Free."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:24:29 PM)
Amber raises her eyebrows. "Is it as bad to be part of a Tradition?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:25:14 PM)
"Nope, it's cool, but there are rules and stuff, which is annoying, hey?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:25:34 PM)
She nods. "Yeah, usually. Maybe as I'll find one without so many rules." She smiles hopefully.
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:26:26 PM)
"Pfft! Good luck with that! Just say away from those Hermetics! They have a billion rules!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:27:27 PM)
She grins. "I'll as talk to them anyway. They might as be helpful!"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:28:26 PM)
"Totally, with burning things! And they have magic circles and all kinds of weird things that are occult-like."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:29:15 PM)
"Oooh...that sounds neat!" Her eyes light up. "Maybe as all the rules won't be so bad? Or maybe as they will..."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:30:16 PM)
She shrugs, and rolls over the arm of the chair into a handstand and then to her feet, "But they can't do that!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:31:07 PM)
Amber laughs, and applauds. "Wow! That was awesome!"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:32:00 PM)
She bows dramaticly, "Each group has their thing. If you find out what it is, then you'll be able to make a good choice!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:32:44 PM)
She grins. "I'll keep that in mind. So, you always as been with this group? All the time?"
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:33:32 PM)
"Nope. I think I've been with all kinds of groups, but I can't remember. I was with this group last time and I remember that the most, so I think I'll stick with it."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:35:30 PM)
She nods. "Prolly not a bad idea! You seem to like it lots."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:36:00 PM)
"You like what you know, you know?"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:37:00 PM)
She grins. "Yeah...I guess as I do."
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:37:34 PM)
"I'm going to go upstairs to sleep, okay? I'm totally tired or something, and it's getting late."
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:38:14 PM)
She nods. "Yeah...I should head home, too. Were nice hanging out with you!" ((Thanks for the scene!))
Janelle Timberland (Feb 8, 2011 8:38:57 PM)
((You too!)), "Thanks, you too!" And she walks over to the staircase, "Night!"
Amber Lux (Feb 8, 2011 8:39:08 PM)
"Night!" She waves and heads off into the night.
