Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:01:47 AM)
*he offers a wave with one hand, without looking up from his work* Yeah, if you wanna grab some of that sandpapery stuff there, and a block, and try to sand out some of the burns, that'd be great. Anything that looks too deeply burnt mark with the little paint pen so I can get measurements for replacement. *a pause, then* What's up?

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:04:20 AM)
She moved to do as asked, picking up the sandpaper and finding an area that didn't look too bad to work on. "Ah be mostly a homebody. Iffn ah ain't runnin' de store or dealin' wit de congregation ah'm here helpin." The butterfly in her hair fluttered to keep balance when she sat down.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:07:06 AM)
Heh...technically I'm like that...I almost never leave Everbright, except to check in at the pub. The repair guys are coming along pretty well with the more mundane repairs, though, so I'll be able to spend more time off of her without having to watch them stumble about.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:11:11 AM)
"She's like yer church then?" She asked, glancing over a moment then continuing her work.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:13:16 AM)
I guess so, yeah. It'd be...kinda like...living with your own loa? Is that the right word?

(irgh, network hiccup. My post go through?

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:14:33 AM)
(wb) "Jes." She nodded. "Bit like nameless, even if de shapes be different."

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:14:36 AM)
(yes)

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:16:02 AM)
She's like a guardian spirit, in a lot of ways...normally she protects me and her crew..but now, she needs me to protect her instead, until she's repaired.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:19:13 AM)
"It always be a flow of energy, we watch de world and protect it, it will do the same fer us." She stated with a nod. "Jus be a smaller scale in dis case."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:20:44 AM)
Microcosm macrocosm or something like that *he says, flashing her a smirk*

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:24:50 AM)
She chuckled a bit and nodded, she was obviously putting work into her sanding, she didn't have much as far as muscle was concerned. The butterfly scoffed at her, being he was being jostled, and crawled down off her hair and instead settled itself on the floor with a couple more flutters.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:25:04 AM)
(rawr go go str 1)

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:26:17 AM)
You ok over there? *he asks, peering at her for a moment, rubbing at his face with a hand...and leaving a nice black smudge of soot there without seeming to notice*

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:28:14 AM)
"Fine." She finished with the particularly rough patch, a bit of sweat on her face despite the small bit of work. The butterfly, in his strangely deep (and more strangely male) english tone spoke. "Mistress doesn't do much work of this sort, she is out of shape." Then he seemed almost to shrug when he got a glare for his comment.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:29:43 AM)
*he snickers* It's alright, I'm sure she'll get more buff doing work here.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:31:17 AM)
"I be fine." She insisted, shaking her head at her chimera. "Dunnae mind him, he be ornary as a old man."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:32:49 AM)
I think I'll get along well with him. I'm pretty ornary too.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:36:47 AM)
She rolled her eyes. "Last thing ah need."

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:37:23 AM)
The butterfly meanwhile climbed it's way up to the railing, seeming to be enjoying the breeze off the ocean.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:38:47 AM)
*that earns a laugh, of course*Oh come on, adversity is -the- source of inspiration.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:42:03 AM)
"Eh, I bet yer Everbright doesn't try ta give ya lessons on how ta be a more proper lady, gentleman in yer case."

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:43:15 AM)
She continued scrubbing, irritation always helps with wanting to hurt things, or in this case sand harder.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:43:44 AM)
No, but she does tend to give unsolicited piloting advice. Amounts to the same thing, really.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:45:16 AM)
"She be a boat, that be logical enough...nameless isn't even a lady." She gestured at the butterfly, it meanwhile puffed up a bit and replied. "Perhaps not, but who better than a gentleman to know how a lady should act." He fluttered his wings again, almost like he was preening.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:46:26 AM)
Maybe you should buy him a dress and shoes and a little hat so he can -show- you how to best comport yourself.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:47:28 AM)
"I doubt he'd react in a gentlemanly way." She smiled some at the comment. The butterfly however remained silent, still facing toward the ocean. "I think he'd be adorable though."

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:47:40 AM)
(except with accents and all)

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:47:48 AM)
(such a pain to remember them all the time)

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:49:28 AM)
(heh. Which is why I lamost never play them :-D )

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:50:11 AM)
Maybe I'll see about stitching him up a set. *he muses, then mutters a tame curse as something clanks inside the panel he's working on*

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:51:35 AM)
(heh well she should adjust to a normal accent soon enough, eshu are good at the language thing)

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:52:12 AM)
"I don't think he'd agree to wear it." She commented, watching him a moment. "You all right?"

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:55:59 AM)
*He shifts to put his boots up against he wall, and pushes, straining for a moment before falling backwards with a thud. He lies there for half a second, then sits back up, ruefully rubbing at his head and peering down at his hand* Yeah. Fingers got stuck in a gear mesh.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 12:56:37 AM)
She jumped when he fell back and started over til it seemed he was okay, then sat back down. "Ye should be careful."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 12:59:48 AM)
Careful like using your metal hand to poke at dangerous things? *he asks, tone decidedly playful, wiggling those fingers at her* Not even scratched.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:01:03 AM)
She smiled lightly and shook her head. "Well, dun be gettin anything ripped loose, ah dunnae think anyone bout 'ere be too willing ta fix it for ye. Most folks seem ta hate de nobles."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:03:19 AM)
*he snorts* They never don't. 'Specially not in the states.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:04:39 AM)
"Eh, dat not be true. Ah be thinking it de place of balance fer de nobles ta rule. Things 'ere ain't got any bettah unda a commoner rule."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:08:34 AM)
There are idiots and shitty rulers of all stripes. *muttered as he leans back into the panel to work further* You'll hear me ranting about that all the time. Rajadharma.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:09:55 AM)
"True, but de dreamin' be havin' it's ways. It chose de sidhe, whatever be it's reasons, ah think it fool to argue wit nature."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:13:32 AM)
Exactly my point. It's our dreaming-granted right to rule....but far too many of us forget that the flipside of that is the duty to rule -well-. To guide and teach and protect. Not just to look pretty and get people to do shit for you.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:15:27 AM)
"Eh, ah ain't seen many of yer kind, but mah gran, she brought me up to give em respect. Part of the way of things she always said, like respectin' yer elders." She smiled. "She was a bit more set on the later part ah think dough."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:16:57 AM)
Well now...I'd not give one of us respect automatically...perhaps the benefit of the doubt, but not automatic respect.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:18:32 AM)
"Nuttin' wrong wit a bit o' politeness. Maybe it be a bit too traditional for some but ah figure followin her teachings keeps me closer to her."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:19:54 AM)
That it does. and having a sense of honor beat into you, in addition to being something I can relate to, is something missing from far too many today. Listen to me being all old-guy-on-the-porch-with-a-shotgun

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:21:27 AM)
"Well ye did say ye'd get on well wit nameless." She commented, leaning back from her hard work with an appreciative nod to herself...it was effort, as was obvioius by the sweat she'd worked up. She didn't complain though.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:23:39 AM)
*he peers over* Looks like good work. That scorch doesn't look to deep, does it?

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:24:12 AM)
"I dunnae think so...I tried to pick one dat wasn't too bad ta start wit."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:25:02 AM)
Alright. Only reason to get rid of that is so it doesn't catch fire again. If I left it, it'd be like charcoal.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:26:12 AM)
She nodded. "Probably a unwise thing ta keep on a boat."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:27:27 AM)
Exactly. Me and the old captain were talking about replacing all of her wood with metal just for that reason...but we could never get an alloy that works as well as simple wood. Well, deep-dreaming-tree wood.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:28:34 AM)
"I dunnae know much about dat sorta thing, ah figure ye know what yer talking about though." She had nodded a bit.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:32:22 AM)
*he nods absently, sighing and shutting the panel he was working on* Thirsty? (it happens :-D )

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:33:14 AM)
"Jes." She nodded. "It be hard work." Her butterfly commented. "Out of shape." and earned itself another glare.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:35:46 AM)
*he snickers to himself, dissapearing inside for a moment before leaning back out* Coffee, tea, cocoa?

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:36:30 AM)
"Tea, please. And thank you." She'll have gotten back up and dusted off.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:40:01 AM)
*he pads out a moment later, handing her tea with the teabag tag dangling from the side, then sipping his own* I wonder if I could get the fae of the city to...swarm or something...

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:40:39 AM)
"Swarm?" She nodded thanks dipping the teabag a couple times and taking a small sip with it still inside the cup.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:41:11 AM)
Yeah...like all decend upon Everbright in an orgy of sanding and fixing and the like.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:42:22 AM)
"Ah see." She laughed lightly. "Not sure that'd work well."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:43:18 AM)
I could...like...throw a party. Feed people pizza and beer.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:43:40 AM)
"yeah but den if they get drunk dey could jus' break more."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:46:26 AM)
Enough beer to drink but not get hammered. Or maybe only bring it out after the fact.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:47:43 AM)
"After seems like a bettah idea, men with hammers given alcohol is always a bad idea."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:50:56 AM)
*he rubs at his chin...that smudge of black, sooty grease is still there, and he honestly doesnt' seem to care..or maybe he hasn't noticed* I should ask around.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:52:32 AM)
"Couldn't hurt, worse that happens is ye end up wit folks sayin no." She'd dig out a plain gray handkerchief and offer it to him. Gesturing at his chin. "Does seem dere is much needin' done."

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:53:37 AM)
She sips at her tea. "Dere be a number of folk ere, ah'm sure someone else be willing ta help."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:54:06 AM)
*he rubs at his face with a murmer of thanks, then hands the hankie back* Could be useful too, get some information and organization going.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 1:55:10 AM)
She folds it back up, replacing it in a pocket. "Iffn I had any kinain ah was mentorin' I'd offer em, but ah ain't seen any about since de floods."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 1:59:16 AM)
I wonder if there are even any left in the city...

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:00:06 AM)
"Well, if dere are, not many."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:01:35 AM)
...we should try to take a census. *he muses, sipping his tea*

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:02:32 AM)
"Ah dunno." She smiled a bit, glancing out at the ocean. "Ah dun think 'do ah look like ah ave blue skin' sounds like a normal question ta go about askin. And we'd need a troll."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:05:17 AM)
It'd be easier to try to bribe chimera to do it for us. They get around more

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:05:56 AM)
"Well, ah dun much interact with chimera other than nameless, and now the Everbright."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:06:34 AM)
Well, it's a thought, Just my navy trained brain going on.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:07:26 AM)
She nodded, seeming to be pondering as she sipped at her tea.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:07:59 AM)
Penny for your thoughts? *he asks, peering at her, seeming amused*

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:08:36 AM)
"Ah was thinking nameless might..." The butterfly interrupted her. "No." She looked at it. "But." It repeated. "No." She frowned and shrugged. "Nevermind."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:10:46 AM)
*that gets a laugh* Good to see I'm not the only one who argues with his chimera.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:11:17 AM)
"Ah told ya he's ornary."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:13:17 AM)
Which is good. Like Everbright, it'll keep you from getting your head all inflated.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:13:56 AM)
"Jes, he'd never let dat happen, fer certain."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:14:23 AM)
Sometimes, you need a devil's advocate, to be sure.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:15:03 AM)
"Ah suppose." She nodded. "Nameless is all right, even if he's ornary."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:17:01 AM)
*he nods too* Seems pretty decent to me. I bet he'll get along with Everbright once she's less....hurt.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:18:12 AM)
"Ah dunno..." She added quietly. "Ah think he's jealous." The butterfly however seemed to have decent hearing. "I am not envious of the ship Mistress." She rolled her eyes and seemed unconvinced.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:19:10 AM)
*he snickers* If he eats his wheaties, He might grow as big as she is. Hell...I could even build him a ship of his own to pilot.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:21:11 AM)
"I appreciate your offer, however, it is unneeded." The butterfly stated in it's english accent calmly. Azu chuckled. "He is a bit sensitive about takin' care o' himself."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:22:10 AM)
How much better to have a giant robot suit to take care of yourself?

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:23:05 AM)
"Then he couldn't show himself off." She commented sipping at her tea. "He likes fluttering those wings o his."

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:23:33 AM)
The butterfly meanwhile had grown quiet again, not looking at the pair, with a almost vibe of 'this is beneath me'

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:23:53 AM)
It could be a giant copy of him...Very evil-genius, that would be

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:24:56 AM)
Azu smirked some and kept to her tea, the butterfly remained silent.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:27:53 AM)
*he laughs to himself* Amusing. Defintely amusing. I'll build him a little perch on the bridge so he can come and chill when we go places.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:28:42 AM)
"He's got himself a lot o attitude fer sumthin so small. Ah think he'd like dat dough."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:30:36 AM)
Like a mini-napolean comples.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:31:12 AM)
"Yeah, sumthin' like dat."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:31:36 AM)
...Maybe a little napolean hat for him...

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:35:18 AM)
"It'd havta 'ave holes fer the little antennae."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:35:39 AM)
...I could do that. *he muses, thinking*

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:36:03 AM)
"Ah dunnae think he'd wear it dough."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:36:35 AM)
It'd be very proper. Especially if he wore it when onboard.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:37:50 AM)
Azu shook her head with a smile, sipping her tea. The butterfly meanwhile wasn't talking to them.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:38:58 AM)
I think he's upset with me. Probably will be until he gets his hat.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:40:33 AM)
"Eh, he jus won't talk much if he thinks dere isn't much point. 'Azu, a proper lady or gentlemen only speaks when it is needed, when it is out of turn or just to hear yourself speak no one wants to hear it.' " She even did a pretty decent job of mimicking the english accent.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:43:38 AM)
*he snickers* Looks like his education is sticking in spite of your dissaproval.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:45:27 AM)
"Yes, well, even if he's a bit too serious sometimes I know he means well." She stated, finishing her tea and setting the cup down. "Besides, he and gran always got on well, ah think dey had a lot o similiar beliefs far as etiquette goes."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:47:11 AM)
Was your gran like you? *he asks, scooping up her cup and padding inside, motioning her to follow, to get out of the cold*

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:48:19 AM)
"Well, she was a priestess like me." She'd get up and follow, letting her butterfly enjoy the air for now. "She been a sluagh dough."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:49:46 AM)
Ahh. Makes sense. Speaking of sluagh, do you know ..what was it...Nyth or something?

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:51:06 AM)
"Ah heard de name, but ah ain't met her meself." She gave a negative shake of her head. "Nezzar mentioned her."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:52:26 AM)
*he waggles his hand, flopping into a seat* She and my XO conspired to dress me, apparently. She sent me a new uniform...

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:53:26 AM)
"That seems...awkward." She commented, fighting with the word choice a moment.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:54:00 AM)
...Exactly. Especially because I'm hesitant to wear it.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:54:27 AM)
"Ah would be as well." She nodded.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:54:48 AM)
Good to know I'm not the only paranoid person in the city.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:55:53 AM)
"Ah been hearin lots o sluagh be using dark magics 'ere."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:56:15 AM)
I was more woried about poison, actually,

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 2:57:34 AM)
"Poison be a dark art as well, perhaps not soothsayin but still dark voodoo."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 2:59:21 AM)
Yeah. I'm less worried about magic, as at least I can -sense- that. Poison, not so much. I didn't touch it save for with the hand *waggling his right hand again..metal to fae, and gloved to the mortals* and washed it right off afterwards

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:00:11 AM)
"Ye could put it in a closet and say ye prefer yer own clothes? Or ye're savin' it fer a special occassion?"

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:01:02 AM)
Just washing it should be alright. Most poisons would be diluted and rinced by pure water.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:03:09 AM)
"Maybe, dough dere be poisons dat only work under certain cercumstance. Heat, cold, dat sorta thin. Dat may not be diluted by water...dough it's been a while since my medical clases."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:05:05 AM)
*he ponders for a moment* Long enough soak should get rid of almost anything. my degree isn't in chemistry, but I did take an assload of classes in it.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:06:09 AM)
"True." She nodded. "My minor be Biology."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:07:01 AM)
Mechanical engineering. Surprise, right?

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:07:56 AM)
"Ah'd never guessed." She smiled though, obviously joking. "Religion be my major, odd combination ah guess but ah liked em both."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:09:13 AM)
Well, it'd be less surprising if I hadn't chryslized -after- I graduated. And religion versus biology is a pretty interesting combo.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:10:09 AM)
"Voodoo focus's much on life an it's energies, seemed a good idea ta know what I could about it."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:12:20 AM)
And it'd let you understand the physical issues involved with sicknesses so you could help with magic -and- science. Not a bad idea.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:14:23 AM)
She nodded. "Understanding why some of de remedies o' our ancestors work is a nice step, people don't take the religion as just some crazy girl wit a voodoo doll iffn ah can explain some of the science behind it."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:17:22 AM)
Makes sense to me. What I would have done in your place. Have you figured out the zombi poweder yet?

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:19:35 AM)
"There be much to work on, and den dere be some things the priests and priestess' are ta keep secret."

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:20:33 AM)
"What of ye dough Captain. Ye 'ave a religion?"

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:23:13 AM)
These days, just getting a sample to a lab with the right equipment would give you the exact recipe. *a pause as he sips his tea, then* Not really. No room for it in the military discipline my dad raised me with. After I was out on my own, It just never came up. Even after I found myself...the old Captain followed a personal pantheon of sea-gods...not me.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:24:28 AM)
"Be a pity to be a man with no faith. Ye should look into em sometime, dere must be sumthing out dere for ye."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:26:59 AM)
I have faith. In myself, my ship. The people I decide are qualified for my crew. My magic. Hard to believe that gods are all that special when you realize there's a decent chance that they were really just powerful sorcerers or faeries, or chimerical creatures.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:27:23 AM)
...I guess you could say I believe in gods, but don't think they're worthy of worship.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:28:49 AM)
"Eh...well, not somethin' a lot of folk agree on." She smiled. "Ah suppose many folk think mah choice of a religion silly, but ah figure our world justifies it more."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:31:29 AM)
No, see, Your religion..what I've read aboout it, makes a lot more sense then those with a focus on a monotheistic worldview. I can understand paying respects to powerful chimerical or supernatural spirits a lot more then I can understand the desire to worship a single powerful creature

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:32:49 AM)
"Well, it be much easier to believe dere be spirits in anythin' when ye learn to speak to anythin'."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:34:27 AM)
Like I said, I -believe- in gods. i just don't feel they deserve 'worship'

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:35:44 AM)
She nodded. "Fair ah suppose. Ah dun much figure it makes sense to try to convert folks not that interested, if ye were worried."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:36:22 AM)
Nothing wrong with talking about it though. Not like you'er gonna put me to the sword for failing to convert.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:36:52 AM)
"No, that only be the catholics ah think."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:38:24 AM)
Heh...more like most of the modern monotheists. But...*he shrugs, looking amused as he sparks flame to a cigar* Whatever. Not like I lack the skill or will to put them to -my- sword if they were to try.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:39:33 AM)
"Well, Ah never had much trainin' in combat things. Gran said I shouldn't be needin' it as a priestess, ah figure she never realized ah was a eshu and not a sluagh like her."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:41:01 AM)
Everyone should have -some- kind of warskill. It is...I feel at least...important to be able to fight for oneself.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:42:56 AM)
"Ah know some basic things, but ah wouldn't say it's skill beyond a grasp of basic footwork and attemptin ta put the pointy end in the other guy." She chuckled. "nameless keeps tellin' me ah should take some self-defence courses."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:47:02 AM)
As long as you can poke someone with a stick, you're ok. -some- skill is important, not learning to be a ninja. To me, it's important to fight for yourself, but also the discipline of thought training brings is important. Acting while afraid.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:48:20 AM)
"Well, thus far ah manage all right. Some folks say luck and faith are the same thing, well I got both, so ah figure one or the other will provide." She shrugged. "Can't just go about not gettin into no trouble, how dull would that be?"

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:50:00 AM)
Ain't that the truth. *he says with a nod* One doesn't join a Dreamship's crew without expecting -some- excitement.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:52:14 AM)
"Well, once the school year ends, I'd be glad to come along on things. As it is, ah gotta head to class before much longer." She sighed a bit at the idea and wrinkled her nose. "Government. It's a credit ah 'ave to take."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:53:17 AM)
*that gets a smirk* Yeah. I remember those classes. Of course, I was so...focused...i didn't even notice how much I hated the useless ones.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:54:47 AM)
"It wouldn't be so bad, but the teacher only speaks in a monotone, ah avoid it when I can help it and get notes and assignments from classmates, but I gotta go tonight so ah can skip some later."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:56:49 AM)
Ahh. Those are, in fact, the worst. But if you never need help with anything sciencey, let me know. I'll tutor what I know.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 3:57:46 AM)
"Thanks, though I like most of that stuff, the professors are all pretty interesting."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 3:59:07 AM)
*he nods a bit* Good to hear. I never noticed if my professors were interesting or not. Thankfully, I just absorb information so it really didn't matter.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 4:00:37 AM)
"I have a harder time in classes that are dull...though in general I suppose my sorts are more interested in a good story."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 4:01:30 AM)
There is that. I can only imagine the hell of a boring teacher from your point of view.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 4:02:27 AM)
"It's completely wretched." She assured with a small shutter for good measure. "But ah'll survive."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 4:03:14 AM)
You could always try to write your own story with the information you get. Might help to think of it like that.'

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 4:04:08 AM)
"Yeah, when they argued over tax law...sounds like a real thriller."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 4:04:45 AM)
...Law and Order has super huge ratings, doesn't it?

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 4:05:40 AM)
"But most of that crap they make up."

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 4:06:08 AM)
"And ah need to remember real government, not makebelieve government, even if it's more entertaining."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 4:06:30 AM)
Ok...but a lot of those shows are all about arguing laws. Court TV too...so if you work the laws into a story for yourself...might help remember it, see?

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 4:07:39 AM)
She pondered some. "Ah suppose that makes sense...darn."

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 4:07:52 AM)
(thats heavy cursing there!)

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 4:08:35 AM)
It's one of the mnemonic devices my dad taught me.

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 4:09:34 AM)
"Not a bad way to do it, just never enough time in a day."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 4:10:42 AM)
True enough. There's -never- so much time as you'd want or need. (and I think it's bedtime for this elf. I'm yawning all over the place)

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 4:10:59 AM)
(okies, sleep well!)

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 4:11:13 AM)
(sure thing. Thanks for the scene!

Azu Ongokos (Jan 19, 2011 4:11:19 AM)
(you too :) )

Albel was sitting on the boat waiting for folks to get back, though he wasn't hiding, just chilling against a wall slowly smoking his cigarette.

(This user has entered The Everbright) (IP = 174.101.116.91)

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 8:37:27 PM)
(repost for Seren) Albels' leaning on a 'wall' on the boat smoking a cigarette.

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 8:45:27 PM)
*Serendipity is swinging from some of the rigging hanging down from just off the mast, climbing up and down as she checked on the lines, squeaking a touch of frustration here and there as she crawled more than walked along the upper portions of the ship*

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 8:45:58 PM)
*Octavian, it turns out, was on the ship. he comes striding out of the below-decks, smudged and sooty, dirty in a way no sidhe ever manages to be. Except dougal, of course. Either way, he doesn't notice Al, as he's busily fiddling with a cog-y looking thing in his hand*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 8:47:24 PM)
"Hey." He stated to the sidhe, before taking a drag on his cigarette, watching Seren swinging about. "I got an idea how we can get more information on the bottom of the Asylum."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 8:50:07 PM)
*He sits precariously on one of the railings of the ship....does everyone aboard have cat-balance?...and tugs out a bit of cloth to clean off the thing in his hand, not looking up as he answers* Safest way would be hire a soothsayer. If whatsherfuck has some of that wire left, it'd work as a correspondance to facilitate the scrying. *ahh, his usual comingling of erudite and crudity*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 8:51:16 PM)
*Passing squeaking from faint, faint, faint, louder, louder, loud, softer, softer, faint, faint.. all as she swung about from one side to the other before she scurried up the lines up to the mast and crawled up towards the crows nest to check it out*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 8:51:45 PM)
"Eh, that shit's never realiable...no, we can send in a better spy than that oathbreaker Gray." He gestured up at Seren, a trail of smoke following his moving hand. "Mice are suppose to be sneaky and quick and what not. Minnie should be able to handle that."

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 8:53:31 PM)
(This user has entered The Everbright) (IP = 68.53.135.79)

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 8:54:49 PM)
*She walked slowly down the dock wearing http://smarmyclothes.com/images/dresses10/reaper_goth_zombie_cyberpunk_dress_02.jpg a cigarette in a holder as she glided along*

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 8:54:55 PM)
XO! A word! *he snaps out, tone cutting through the wind and water sounds with practiced ease* Now please.

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 8:55:33 PM)
*She waited at the end of the dock quietly watching from where she stood*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 8:55:49 PM)
*There was a long drawn out squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek before Serendipity landed on the deck clutching to some rigging that she released once she made it to the deck, scurrying over to hop in front of Octavian* Capt'n?

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 8:56:19 PM)
*She visibly winced at the squee pulling the hood up on the dress still smoking*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 8:56:44 PM)
He watched, taking another draw from the cigarette and noting Nyth but it wasn't his boat so he waited.

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 8:57:44 PM)
*She knew the protocol and knew Octavian probably wouldn't hear her call for permission to come aboard till he knew she was there and waited calmly*

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 8:58:30 PM)
Albel is going to brief you on something. I want you to give me an honest assessment of your potential for success. *a glance to Al to suggest he start the briefing, then a motion to Nyth. How he spotted her without looking is, perhaps, a mystery* Come aboard, miss, and make yourself welcome,

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 8:59:11 PM)
*She curstied and quietly ambled up the gangplank to the deck smiling her usual mona lisa smile * Sank you mon Capitan...

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 8:59:22 PM)
*her french accent a little more pronounced tonight*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:00:57 PM)
"Ey Minnie." He nodded to her. "I dunno if Deadpool told you bout the area under the Asylum, but there's a door down there we weren't able to get past, and getting information as to what's down there would be sorta nice before we go storming in. Mice are sneaky sorts so I figured you'd be the one to ask."

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:01:38 PM)
*She reached into her bag and pulled out a raibowed tail mitten for Sere but it had leather rings on it as well to use it to grip with* I've been down there...*She simply stated as she offered the gift to Sere*

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:02:45 PM)
*Her wicked scissors were tucked into one of her straps of the dress the chimerical things looking dark and had an odd sheen to them *

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:03:38 PM)
Anything we can do for you, miss? *he asks the sluagh, his eyes flicking back to the odd metal gear looking thing in his hands, which he's working on cleaning with a handkerchief*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:03:56 PM)
"Down past the door after I ate that god awful goo?"

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:04:41 PM)
I zimply came to deliver siz for Sere and to azk if ze uniform fit well...*to Delan* Oui I went down long before I told Nezzar to stay away from ze place...I've been doing rezearch on it for quite zome time.

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:05:31 PM)
*She tilted her head a little bit as she thought about it, her tail flicking around as she turned in a couple circles* I could take a peek I suppose

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:06:33 PM)
"Mmmhmm." He eyed Nyth with that crimson gaze. "And what's on the other side then?"

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:07:15 PM)
*She half smiled* Zey uzed to uze zat place for ze heavy cases...zome of ze individualz zat 'ave been killing glamour call eet 'ome

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:08:33 PM)
"Yeah, I meant numbers...how many they have, floor layout, that sort of thing." He answered, claws tinking together gently.

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:09:21 PM)
Ze sluagh zizters are actually puppets not true fae...Az for ze layout I didn't get to zee much I'm getting ze floor plans for ze place. I was doing zome research about ze dark fae zat uzed to call eet 'ome.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:10:57 PM)
"Puppets...like chimera? Or something else?" He was considering.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:11:28 PM)
*He holds the cog up, peering at it critically before tucking it away inside his coat, tugging out a cigar, and lighting it up with a battered brass zippo*

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:11:29 PM)
Zomething elze...constztructs zat only lazt az long az zey can against ze cold iron shavings zey carry.

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:11:48 PM)
*She tugged at an ear as she listened around at the others, fidgeting some*

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:12:33 PM)
*She offered the leather and knitted tail mitten out to Sere that she had made*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:12:34 PM)
"Well, something at least...you going down during the attack Safety?"

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:13:07 PM)
*She squeaked and happily took the offered tail mitten, hugging Nyth happily before she carefully threaded it onto her tail*

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:13:25 PM)
I doubt zere will be much of an Attack perzay...I would zuggest waiting till I finish my rezearch...zo you 'ave better intel on who might ztill be calling eet 'ome.

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:14:11 PM)
Zey 'ave been stealing utilities and ze like zo it zhouldn't be too hard to find out comzumption per perzon and ze like...zere uzed to be an unseelie 'olding there.

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:15:52 PM)
Zere aren't any ghoztz zere eizer which is suprising...*She looks to Octavian* Did ze uniform fit well?

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:16:19 PM)
Hmm? Oh. It looked quite fine.

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:17:00 PM)
*She nodded* Zen zat eez all I came to check on...*She offered Albel a cordial smile but there was something dark in it* Zen eef you will excuse me I zhould get back to wokr*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:17:06 PM)
"Yeah, you can feel something like a fire down there...and this town needs a fire where there ain't fuckers telling em to pay to use it." Albel replied and then shrugged. "The attack needs to happen either way, waiting too long just lets them build more. They already know folks are poking around thanks to Gray just waltzing inside. They either got giants or more likely folks usin' Go Ask Alice. We already have a vague idea of numbers but I can try to look into who's stalling repairs."

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:17:58 PM)
He shrugged at Nyth, apparently unconcerned at the look. "Later Safety."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:18:13 PM)
If you can get us floorplans, miss Nyth, we'd appreciate it immensely. Either way, Dreaming protect.

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:18:54 PM)
*She smiled* Az zoon az I get what you need I will turn eet over to Octavian eef you like.

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:19:21 PM)
Eet iz my job after all to support ze strapping young lads 'ere

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:19:50 PM)
*She quietly walked down the gangplank and off and away *

Nyth Obscurité (Jan 19, 2011 9:19:58 PM)
(sorry gotta go cook dinner *HUGS ALL AROUND*)

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:20:05 PM)

(This user has left DigiChat) (IP = 68.53.135.79)

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:20:47 PM)
*scratches head and looks between the other two*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:21:15 PM)
He watched her walk for a while, then finally shook his head once she was well out earshot. "I'd be hesitant to rely on her information at all. She's pissed at me, I guess dating the oathbreaker will do that."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:21:21 PM)
...I didn't have the heart to tell her I haven't tried the uniform on *he mutters*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:22:29 PM)
"As it is, I know that not all the sluagh are just puppets...I've tasted one and it wasn't like the other puppets I've fought."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:22:54 PM)
I was being good! *She said suddenly8

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:23:12 PM)
*he peers at Serendipity* How's that?

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:23:22 PM)
The uniform..

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:23:34 PM)
I only gnawed a little bit!

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:23:51 PM)
You gnawed it? *he asks, sounding upset* The one she sent?

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:24:02 PM)
He blinked and looked at Seren, and not knowing how to take that he instead lets Oct ask and takes a final drag on the cigarette before tossing the end over the edge of the ship into the water, digging himself out a new one. "You guys let her make you clothes? Braver fucks than I."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:26:49 PM)
Wait.. which one? Maybe.. doorknobs?

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:27:54 PM)
God damnit, XO. There's a -reason- I didn't touch it.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:28:22 PM)
He lights his new cigarette, going back to business before the sluagh interrupted, no longer clicking his claws together. "You still willing to sneak in, I'll wait outside the door so if they find you we can bust in and do something about it."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:28:34 PM)
But it's still in it's package!

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:30:08 PM)
It might be poisoned! Damnit. *he takes a breath, a long drag on his cigar* From now on, anything in my room is off limits. If I see so much as a toothmark on anything...*he shakes his head, takes a quiet moment to put away his anger before it goes all sidhe-supernova*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:30:40 PM)
*She grabbed her tail and shook it at him, pointing at it as though it somehow held the secret to everythin*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:31:48 PM)
Albel watched a while, then nodded appreciatively, he could always give the sidhe, they had the intimidation thing down when they got pissed off.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:33:51 PM)
Anyway *he mutters, chomping on the cigar* So, do you think it's doable, XO?

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:35:54 PM)
He lit his new cigarette and took an appreciative drag before turning back to the pooka.

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:35:57 PM)
Only if you don't yell at me!

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:36:23 PM)
"We're doomed..." Albel muttered.

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:37:28 PM)
Alright, No yelling. *He mutters*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:38:02 PM)
... fine.. how much space was there around this door?

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:39:51 PM)
Not a hell of a lot but that can be fixed with creative uses of Eldritch Prime."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:40:38 PM)
I wonder if there's an alternate way in...

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:42:11 PM)
Hang on.. *she went padding away below decks and time passed... and time passed.. and then Albel may notice a very small field mouse sitting on his shoe*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:42:40 PM)
"I figure there probably is, Safety likely knows about it but she ain't exactly trustworthy...she..." He paused, blinking at the mouse. "Minnie?"

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:43:13 PM)
*the mouse turned around in a circle before looking back up at Albel*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:43:58 PM)
"Guess so." He'd lean down and look at her. "I'd offer a hand, but don't want the girls accidentally getting a bite...painful and all." He looked her over. "Yeah, I think we could get you in without much problem."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:45:04 PM)
*he absently reaches down to let the mouse run onto his hand*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:45:38 PM)
*She circled around again and then promptly scurried onto Octavian's hand, up his arm and to his shoulder, perching there and rubbing paws over ears and face in a grooming motion*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:46:23 PM)
He watched her and nodded. "What you think Deadpool, we could fit her in all right?"

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:46:58 PM)
we could spike the door. If she's like a regular mouse, if she can fit her head through a crack, the rest of her will fit too.

*She pawed little tiny clawed-paws against Octavian's ear by way of answering*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:48:46 PM)
He nodded. "It'd be nice if we could get a run in before the planned attack, if not she can scout at the time just to give us numbers and placement and what not...have to bring a sketch pad..."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:49:50 PM)
I wonder if we could get a little webcam to work in there...

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 9:51:11 PM)
*faint little not-quite squeaking noises, almost like a really high-pitched intake of breath as Serendipity burrowed into a shoulder fold*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:52:30 PM)
"Not sure, it'd be a nice thing to have." He agreed, eyeing the mouse a moment then shaking his head. "Either way, I'm not willing to wait longer once we get folks together for an assault...it's already taking too long."

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:52:50 PM)
(that and you never know when the sts will be available for that sorta thing)

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:54:16 PM)
Might be easier to just put together overwhelming force, go in hard and fast.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 9:57:54 PM)
"That's what I'm hoping we'll get next week, I don't know if the oathbreaker and Safety are going to come but I think they'd complicate shit more than helping so I hope they sit it out. Other than them, I know I'm going, Snowflake and Strings should be showing up. With you two we're up to five, and I figure at least a few more will come. If we can get eight, that's a pretty good force."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 9:59:13 PM)
I'll need weapons. *he says, then to the mouse on his shoulder* Go change back, XO. Need input. *and back to Al* I -had- a pretty decent sword.

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 10:00:32 PM)
*She circled around and climbed down his arm, using his sleeve to keep herself steady before she waited for him to set her down so she could scurry back down below*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 10:01:00 PM)
"I don't have anything chimerical other than my girls. I got some shock knuckles but I ain't managed to get Snowflake to turn em chimerical yet, not sure if they'd work in the dreaming."

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 10:01:38 PM)
"Strings or Snowflake could have something though."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 10:02:27 PM)
*he does let her down, of course* Crossbow, longbow...some kind of sword. Shit, even a big fucking hammer. If it comes down to it, I'll buy an axe or sledge from home depot....ut I'd greatly prefer something balanced for fighting.

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 10:02:47 PM)
*And not too much later she hopped out onto deck, pulling her boot on as she hopped over*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 10:03:43 PM)
He chuckled. "When I see em I'll ask if they can build sumthin for the event...you need a weapon too Minnie?"

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 10:03:54 PM)
I have a tail, what do I need a weapon for?

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 10:04:05 PM)
*he absently hands the mouse something that looks suspciously like a cinnamon stick*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 10:04:37 PM)
He shrugged. "Not all of us have weapons for hands..."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 10:05:00 PM)
*She grabbed the cinnamon stick gleefully and began gnawing on it* Oh.. well.. probably?

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 10:05:32 PM)
"You coming with for the scouting mission Deadpool?" He asked. (I bugged Adver into running it for us ;) )

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 10:05:43 PM)
(Wesa gonna DIE LOL)

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 10:06:00 PM)
Sure. Got nothing better to do.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 10:07:44 PM)
"Good stuff. Want the shock knuckles just in case?"

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 10:09:22 PM)
I'd end up punching myself in the face. If I have to, I'll make something.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 10:10:12 PM)
He smirked at Oct's comment. "Well, no time like the present."

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 10:10:26 PM)

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 11:43:21 PM)
*he leads the way back onto the boat, of course, right into the conference room, where he flops into a seat, pulls the mouse and cinnamon out of his pocket and sets them on the table*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 11:43:47 PM)
Albel shrugs. "Where's her room? I guess I should put her clothes there for her and all."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 11:43:59 PM)
*She curled up into a tiny ball of fur as she clutched to the stick of cinnamon and gnawed furiously at it*

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 11:44:39 PM)
Toss them in the head there *pointing towards a small door at the back of the room* She can change and change in there.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 11:45:31 PM)
"Sure, need to use it anyway." He headed in there and closed the door.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 11:46:08 PM)
(afk a bit, kiddo needs to be changed)

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 11:47:00 PM)
*he scritches the mouse between the ears while he waits, lighting a cigar with his free hand*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 11:49:02 PM)
*She squeaked faintly and leaned into the scritching*

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 11:49:45 PM)
(back) Albel would leave after a few moments sitting at the table. "There you go Minnie."

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 11:50:08 PM)
You did good, XO. Go get changed. *as he scoops her up and settles her on the floor*

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 11:50:53 PM)
*She scurried into the side room then. Some minutes passed and then she squeaked loudly and yelled* ALBEL I WANT MY BRA BACK

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 11:51:31 PM)
"I was hungry." He returned. "I'll get you a new one."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 11:51:45 PM)
DAMNIT!

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 11:51:55 PM)
"Love you too Minnie."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 11:52:36 PM)
*She grumped and left the room and headed out of the conference room to go to her quarters, coming back a few minutes later and scowling at Albel*

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 11:53:19 PM)
Closest he'll get to your boobs I think, XO. Let it go please. We have more important things to think about.

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 11:53:34 PM)
He offered a winning grin, digging out his smokes and lighting one. Offering the mouse one. "Hey I said I'd buy you another one...we can go shopping together."

Serendipity Jones (Jan 19, 2011 11:55:30 PM)
*She slumped down to a seat and sighed, curling up in her spot as she chewed nervously* Baaaad... big baaaadaboom

Octavian Vanderaa (Jan 19, 2011 11:56:16 PM)
Care to explain?

Delan ‘Albel’ Marshall (Jan 19, 2011 11:57:32 PM)
He nodded, letting the joke go as Octavian got them all more back on a serious track.
