((OK...I think I'm ready now))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:30:17 PM)
(Alright)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:30:29 PM)
((you umbral?)
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:30:32 PM)
(yes)
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:30:46 PM)
(should be picking right up after the flavor post on the forums)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:33:00 PM)
*The umbral reflection for this patch of forest seems a bit misty. The trees most far younger than 50 years old, at best showing up as impressions, except for an old oak, easily 100 years old this tree reflects fully into the umbra, looking somehow more vibrant here than earthside. Alighting on the branch sits the stormcrow, looking down at you with it's all-too-intelligent eyes, it caws again*
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:34:44 PM)
((you know spirit speech?))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:35:01 PM)
(that's the sceen request, to learn Spirit Speech)
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:35:14 PM)
*Loco turned her head briefly, an ear (which was missing the very tip after her scuffle) flicked toward him. It was the armored plate hanging from his avian neck that caught her attention more fully after a moment.* -gt- What is it? Cawing, so that Loco follows d'bully?
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:35:49 PM)
((whats your background rating for this lil crow?))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:36:53 PM)
(Numen 1, but also Spirit Heritage 1)

((Thats what I'm trying to figure out...well...considering this is your Numen I'll let it know garou tongue...well understand it anyway))
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:40:12 PM)
*it caws again*
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:41:07 PM)
*The crow seems impatient with the forest...and looks at you as if to ask what your doing...it cocks it's head*
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:42:40 PM)
-gt- I'can't understand you. You point me where to go, wolves to talk to. You say why? Say why Crow tells me do these things? You say nothing, you caw, you point. What you saying?
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:44:15 PM)
*the bird lands on a lower branch catching your eye, it cocks it's head and clicks it's beak, and cocks it's head again*

Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:46:31 PM)
*The bird is clearly asking you a question, you get the sense by the quizzical eye and the head cocked to the side*
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:47:36 PM)
*The spirit then flits to another branch*
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:49:25 PM)
*the next look it gives translates clearly ...an inpatience, as if "get to the point"*
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:49:36 PM)
-gt- You ask something complicated. Loco can't understand yor speech. *She huffed, rising up with a prickly scruff on the back of her Crinos shoulders. Her natural calm bleeding through though slowly amidst her crippling wounds.* Too... tired. W'cant you say in plain language, or teach it to Loco?
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:51:27 PM)
*the bird looks at you long and steady, and then landing on the ground it scratches something into the ground, smooth deliberate motions, what you see when it's done is the theurge glyph...the bird stands there a moment it's eyes boring into you, and then the bird scratches the glyph out quite librately as if to negate the glyph, then it points to you with it's beak*
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:56:20 PM)
*Loco eyed the glyph for a long while. Her seclusion away from Garou society made it difficult for her to grasp it. It'd always been associated with mystics and spiritual leaders... not far off from Moonsingers like herself.* -gt- An'... S'no Crescent Moon here... either. Loco Lobo is done what you said, Find werewolves, run with them. Now she wounded. Father won't even help help this broken Wolf.
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:56:34 PM)
-gt- So shut it. Or teach it to Loco.
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:57:06 PM)
((why is your PC wounded?))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:57:19 PM)
*Lobo bared her knife length teeth at the Spirit. The two had always found shelter with eachother, but when it came to matters of Garou Society they always... disagreed.*
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:57:32 PM)
(Got in a fight with Cheslav, a Lord Ahroun.)
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 9:57:49 PM)
(He beat her down to Incap in Aggrivated damge, over a dress she was wearing)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 9:59:18 PM)
*it fluffs it's feathers in indignation, which would be funny if you weren't in so much pain...lands on your head and pecks hard between your ears, then hops back catching your eye again....it's too-intelligent eyes looking at you curiously, it hops back again*
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:00:53 PM)
*Loco snapped her jaws at it, something it should know wouldn't ever truely try to harm it much. Loco lunged forward, then fell back with a groan.* -gt- Loco Lobo is the boss. All you do is eat and squawk.
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:01:01 PM)
(dlp)
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:05:23 PM)
*Loco snapped her jaws slightly, a bit of a groan aching from her tender belly. Cheslav had torn her apart there and her entrails barely kept inside through the marks.* -gt- Loco Lobo is bigger. But if this Crow wants her to speak with werewolves, we must speak first. We must arrange. Loco always protected you, always continue. Loco gets money from the city streets, shining coins. *She'd always noticed his desire for the strange coins humans used as trading items.* finds some, drowns them. Water betwen sides, they come here too for little Crow?
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:06:02 PM)
(Loco associates the Umbra like having drowned and come to 'the other side'. it's her way of saying... she'll bring him shining coins.)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:07:51 PM)
*Avarice shines clearly in the little raven's eyes, it hops back pecks the ground 5 times, if you look puzzled it waits, and then again insistantly packs the ground 5 times. *
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:08:47 PM)
*It's unclear if Loco knew how to count, or if she could associate the five with nickles. At least until she glanced about the clearing, thinking on it.* Nee-cal.
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:11:22 PM)
-gt- Crow wants Nee-cal? Loco Lobo can give little crow lots. Can make little plate to wear, how is that?
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:11:28 PM)
*the bird seems to nod, it then looks at you and does what it has done several times in the past, a certain preening that usually means the bird wants part of your kill, and then it looks at you and gestures with it's beak to some other trees, you see OTHER crows there staring at you*
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:13:16 PM)
-gt- An share of spirit rabbit meal, with Murder. *She nods, this task was far more preferable to facing the Garou again. She resigned herself now and leaned down, her large black nose scooped under the companion.* Shares other rabbit with, also. On otherside.
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:13:35 PM)
*it scratches another glyph for "moon"*
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:13:46 PM)
*it looks at you intently*
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:14:45 PM)
*it pecks at the glyph*
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:15:15 PM)
*Time as measured by the celestial body Luna, or the seasons, was much easier for Loco to understand. Although... she'd miss these mind puzzles the Crow would give her just to communicate.* -gt- Is agreed.
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:16:05 PM)
*it struts back and forth preening, Loco gets the definate sense that her little spirit friend is suddenly smug*
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:18:06 PM)
*the bird then flies and lands on your nose, staring into your eyes...theres a deeper sense of communication than just it's usual gaze. It's as if the spirit is whispering to some deep inner part of yourself that you barely understand. And then like a lightbulb going on in that Lupus brain of yours you realize communication with spirits is just a different way of thinking. Oh, like those puzzling human thoughts but different and.....*
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:18:21 PM)
ss So little crazy wolf, do you understand me now?
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:19:52 PM)
*Her ears flowed forward, the dark triangles framed under the shadey light of the Oak's canopy.* -ss- So! My little bird can speak! Your voice is... like greeting a long gone friend. Why did I not hear you before?
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:22:11 PM)
ss Because you did not have the gift. A thing we spirits can grant if we feel like it. *preens it's feathers* Though it's usually a knowledge only given to theurges...the mystics as you say. But I feel a certain kinship to you above the ordinary. Just don't ask after knowledge that isn't yours too often or we get grumpy.
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:23:33 PM)
ss That tired me out. *looks at you shrewdly* How about a bit of your spirit power to replenish me.
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:25:49 PM)
-ss- Maybe I just gnaw it from you myself. *These threats were playful, and plentiful. Her spirit often overlooking them for a chance to play with the werewolf.* My crow... I wait long while, give me your name, and I feed you. *This discovery occured long before New Orleans. Loco reached up with a curled talon, adopting the stormcrow onto her finger and licking him slightly. Chuffing, she adored to him. Cooing and whining over how lovely his feathers were, how shiny his plate. This Adoration equating to faith, equating to Gnosis.*
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:26:04 PM)
(ah, 2 Gnosis, sounds about right)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:28:43 PM)
ss Ha! Names have power. I might be young but I'm still in the egg. *it preens itself* But a name for you to use? Humm...Night-feather will do I think.
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:29:22 PM)
((so not a true spirit name but one it answers too...hope that isn't too corny, but one of Thunders brood is bound to be...clever))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:29:41 PM)
-ss- Is a lovely name. *She nuzzled it softly, the two, after years, finally able to speak to eachother at length and clarity*
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:30:10 PM)
(lol, I chuckle 'cause I think Night-Wing is the name of a certain web comic character's familiar)
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:30:35 PM)
(The elf mage from Order of the Stick)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:31:10 PM)
ss Now....as I was saying. Stop licking your wounds and go to the holy place. There are mystics, theurges in the holy place. They could heal you. Stop sulking out here. And remember you promised me shinies and my murder food for a month.
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:32:29 PM)
-ss- Loco Lobo never forgets. But might delay. Father's lands are plentiful, Murder will be well fed.
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:32:40 PM)
(thanks for the scene)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:33:33 PM)
((OK RP wise...don't use the gift in any RP or scenage until you get the request handled. It's just so everything is all kosher. Chiminage wise for your request, you paid 2 gnosis, a ton of nickles for a fickle bird, and will be feeding crows for the turning of the moon. Thats expensive for a level 1 gift BUT this is out of auspice for you.))
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:34:22 PM)
((I hope I managed to overcome the communication problem in an interesting enough fashion for you))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:34:28 PM)
(That's fine, and thanks for showing me where the bar was ('cause I was like... a whole month?))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:34:40 PM)
(Yup! Now Loco's not so aimless)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:35:31 PM)
((Hun also when you let the spirits set the price and don't learn gifts with a theurge helping you with the chiminage? Spirit is going to take full advantage. You to put this in easy terms, you got ripped off by your spirit buddy))
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:36:04 PM)
((but that also reflects the out of auspice expense so it is reasonably fair I believe))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:36:41 PM)
(As well as the Lord's attitude of 'screw or be screwed')
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:36:48 PM)
(exactly!)
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:37:03 PM)
(But for Spirit Speech, as a starter, it's worth it)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:37:10 PM)
*The crow struts around for the next few weeks being insufferably smug*
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:37:33 PM)
((OK figure we are done then, don't forget your requests!))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:37:59 PM)
(It'll just be a few days before she can hunt (at the time of this scene, she's Crippled), but soon the rabbits will be made available, both Umbral and a few in the spirit realm)
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:38:07 PM)
(er, umbral and material)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:38:18 PM)
((You can bluebook some of that if you are so inclined))
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:38:38 PM)
((it's optional but is a good method for describing your downtime))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:38:40 PM)
(I will, it's an open oportunity for Experience)
Windseeker (Nov 30, 2010 10:38:54 PM)
((OK have a good evening))
Loco Lobo (Nov 30, 2010 10:38:55 PM)
