(POSSUM ATTACK
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 12:59:55 AM)
Azu had come by earlier than usual today to help with work on things, Nameless keeping his distance from her. She still smelled of mint cocoa, though she'd built up some small sweat working on things, it wasn't extreme and didn't seem to change whatever odd chimerical effect she'd caused to make herself smell that way in the first place.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:00:24 AM)
*Octavian is standing at the very bow of the ship, peering skyward through some odd little instrument. Trying unsuccesfully to get a starsighting*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:01:26 AM)
She'd glance over, possibly just because eshu tended to do that at just the right time. Smiling some. "Evening Captain Octavian!" Looking at her work again then to ponder what else she could do.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:02:42 AM)
Evening, Azu. Do you have any idea how close you are to being my carpenter by default? *Tone teasing, he still keeps peering though*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:03:57 AM)
She chuckled. "Well, I'm still not very good at it, so that's not really a good thing."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:04:47 AM)
Now how they figured out who would be carpenter back in the day?
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:05:42 AM)
.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:06:03 AM)
She shook her head negatively, taking a break and leaning back in a stretch.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:06:26 AM)
'Hey, you there. Ever worked with wood? Yes? You're on carpentry detail'
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:07:52 AM)
She chuckled at that. "Well, it's nice to just relax and work with my hands sometimes, lets me not dwell on all the little stresses." She sat back up straight and grinned at him. "I figure if I can help at the same time it be good for the Karma."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:09:32 AM)
Admit it, you'r just trying to build up brownie points so Everbright lets you drive.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:11:46 AM)
"I'm not sure that would be the best idea, I barely do well driving an automatic. "
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:12:25 AM)
We'd be either in the middle of the ocean or in the sky. What the crap could you crash into?
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:13:02 AM)
"Well, I'd end up tipping it over or something...probably even if that's not possible." She said thoughtfully then shrugged.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:15:05 AM)
I'd be impressed if you did. But Everbright would never let you manage that.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:16:38 AM)
"Either way, I just like helping." She shrugged.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:17:00 AM)
"Then of course I get your grumpy company, how can I resist."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:18:50 AM)
*he just grumps at her, then grins before lowering the sextant in his hands*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:21:19 AM)
She chuckled and took a break for the moment, she'd been at it for a while anyway, coming over to see what he was up too.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:22:55 AM)
Problem? *he asks as she comes closer*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:23:36 AM)
"Just curious what you're doing, my fingers could use the break anyway." Her hands still sport a few spots where she'd burned them but they were already mostly healed now.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:25:00 AM)
I'm getting a sextant reading. Making sure I don't get rusty.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:25:39 AM)
"So...finding your way?"
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:27:33 AM)
Exactly. It's how you find latitude. With a little more work, you can get Greenwich mean time, and work out your longitude from that.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:28:02 AM)
"Eh." She shrugged. "I never have much problem finding my way." Pesky eshu.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:28:44 AM)
...Showoff. *said in a teasing tone*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:29:08 AM)
"As if a sidhe can talk." She nudged his shoulder.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:29:46 AM)
We can't help it. It's all in the glamour.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:31:14 AM)
"Uh huh..." She leaned on the railing nearby where he was, watching. "Oh...do you like Lincoln Park?" You can hear her not quite getting the name right.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:31:56 AM)
Why? *asked as he quietly and carefully re-cases the sextant*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:32:44 AM)
"Some of the younger members of my congregation insist I need to try other types of music and encouraged me to buy tickets to a show in Houstan next week."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:34:50 AM)
Not my favorite band. But if you need an escort, I'll be happy to go with you to keep the thugs off of you.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:37:26 AM)
"I don't really know them, I imagine the seats aren't the best but I try to keep up with the things my congregation recommend." Then grinned a bit as she thought about what he said. "I planned to drive over next week a day before. But I don't want to bother you either."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:40:38 AM)
It's alright. Let me know before you go, and as long as something huge isn't going on, I'll go with you.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:41:09 AM)
"Okay." She nodded. "Thank you."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:42:42 AM)
Of course. Can't allow a girl to go unescorted, right? *his tone dripping with mischief*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:43:09 AM)
She eyed him at that. "What do you mean?"
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:45:05 AM)
I was teasing you about your properness.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:46:38 AM)
"Oh." She nodded. "I suppose so. Though I do tend to wander on my own a lot. Do for most of my vacations."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:48:39 AM)
I'd be surprised if you didn't. And I doubt you -need- an escort anyway.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:49:48 AM)
"Well having Nameless around helps for most chimerical problems I get into...and well, a tazer works wonders for someone getting too aggressive." She shrugged.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:51:26 AM)
*he nods, absently, musing* I need to get some better gear.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:52:12 AM)
"In what manner?" She turned around to lean looking out at sea instead of in at the boat, she did enjoy the view after all.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:54:15 AM)
I feel naked. No vest, no dream-armor either. My sword is in pieces in a drawer in the conference room. Faith doesn't seem to be following through on our deal.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:56:09 AM)
She'd pull up her pants and tug a chimerical daggar that's serrated from it, in the real world it's a letter opener. Offering it toward him. "I wouldn't know how to use it anyway."
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:56:20 AM)
pants leg*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:56:56 AM)
The daggar was held to her leg by a small holder for it strapped around the calf.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:57:10 AM)
*He waggles a hand* Keep it. If shit goes down or seems likely to, I'll snag it from you. I'm not comfortable with knives.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:58:14 AM)
She shrugged and bent down to put it back. "I only meant til you got something of your own. It was my grans."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 1:58:37 AM)
...I'm afraid I'd break it. The arm is not kind to blades.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 1:59:34 AM)
"That why you're considering guns?" She'd glance to him from her sky searching, curious, eyes flickering to the arm a moment.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:02:20 AM)
I was raised around guns. With guns. My experience with blades and melee weapons is down to fencing classes at school, LARPs, and drilling with the crew. I always considered my cutlass a backup weapon. In the dreaming moreso, honestly...because there we could hide behind Everbright's cannon.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:03:10 AM)
"Fair enough." She nodded. "I have to learn to shoot but I'm seriously thinking of saving dross to get the Lightning Gun Mr. Melvin was talking about."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:05:28 AM)
I'll take you to the range. I need practice myself. I'm hella rusty since I havn't been shooting since the accident.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:06:06 AM)
She chuckled. "Intent on teaching me everything possible Octavian?"
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:07:03 AM)
Teaching is a great way to learn. *he says with a shrug*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:07:37 AM)
She nodded. "I'm teasing, I appreciate everything."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:08:43 AM)
Of course. It's my duty.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:09:06 AM)
"Duty?" Curiously.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:10:17 AM)
Duty. To teach. Part of the captain's duty is to teach his crew. Far as I'm concerned, you're crew, even if it's just temporary and only as long as we're docked.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:10:59 AM)
She nodded at that, smiling. "Thank you, it's a nice compliment."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:11:20 AM)
*he snickers* It's also incredibly condescending and overbearing of me.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:13:06 AM)
She chuckled then got more serious. "I didn't look at it that way, besides, I like you..."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:14:17 AM)
*he bumps her with his hip* I'm rather fond of you, too. *then heads towards the conference room, lugging the sextant case*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:15:16 AM)
She smiled a bit more and followed along, picking up any tools she'd left near her carpentry work along the way.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:18:22 AM)
*It gets put away and strapped into it's place with reverence* I still worry I'm gonna piss people off is all.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:20:13 AM)
She'd sit down her tools in the proper places, in a smaller room it was more obvioius that she smelled like mint cocoa than outside, odd too. "Do you still accomplish that fairly often?"
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:20:39 AM)
What do you think?
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:21:34 AM)
"Well, my opinion is biased but from what I've witnessed no one seems to have paticular issue with you past the sidhe thing...but you can't control that."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:22:10 AM)
Still. If I were to ponce about acting like a sidhe rather then a tall Nocker...how do you think I'd be taken?
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:23:49 AM)
"Well, I can't really imagine you acting much differently than I've seen, but probably not very well in this city. " Grinning at some image in her head.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:24:37 AM)
Exactly. Only reason I've not been run out of the city...I think...is because I'm about as un-sidhe as you can get and still keep your ear-points.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:24:56 AM)
...So I can't let myself backslide into the behavior my blood pushes on me.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:26:14 AM)
"Do you avoid who you really are then?" She folded one of her legs under her as she sat, relaxing a bit.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:27:07 AM)
*He shrugs* I'm a Navy officer. I was raised to be that. My blood calls for me to be a noble, too. Only one of those things will be acceptable in this city at this moment.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:28:37 AM)
She nodded a bit at that. "I'd do more to help if I could, but this city is long from being fixed." Then less seriously. "You can order me about on occassion if it'll help."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:29:59 AM)
I don't think anyone really begrudges me the right to order people about on my ship. It's off it I have to be careful. *he flops into his seat with a cup of tea, sliding another towards her* It's a large part of why I'm so distracted of late
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:31:56 AM)
She accepts the tea with a nod of thanks. "Well, that makes sense I suppose. If I've gone too long without wandering some or learning something new I tend to get antsy and daydreamy."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:33:07 AM)
Exactly. My pointy ears whisper that I should raise an army and take justice by force. But that'd be stupid. Far, far too much loss of life. And entirely not my place to do it. So i won't. But my blood -sings- for it.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:35:27 AM)
She'd reach out and take his hand, unless he stopped her, whatever one was closer. "You are doing what you can to help, that still means a lot."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:37:16 AM)
*he's kind of staring out the window. His metal hand is cold as sea ice. his attention doesn't seem entirely here and now. His tone, the rythm of his words are subtly different* Of course I do. That, too, is duty. One I perform happily and find most satisfying.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:39:21 AM)
She sips her tea with her free hand, watching him space a moment with a smile, she knew what it was like. But she let him drift, sipping her tea and having her own thoughts to get lost in.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:40:55 AM)
*with an effort of will, he brings himself back to here and now, his eyes focusing again, more or less* Curse and blessing.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:41:31 AM)
"What is?" She'd take her hand back, not wanting to be awkward.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:42:08 AM)
Remembering. The urge to take up a sword is very strong. And utter folly in this situation.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:43:47 AM)
"I'm not sure I understand the sentiment of taking up a sword really...though some of my past incarnations were better with it than I...I do understand the desire to act but knowing it's not a good idea."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:45:20 AM)
*he takes a moment to compose himself, lighting a cigar as he does* It's not just a bad idea...it'd never work here. No one here would follow me.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:46:29 AM)
"I'm not sure about no one, but likely not enough to make a change against Roy and Dee."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:47:10 AM)
Two girls, a ship, and a grumpy cat does not an army make
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:48:17 AM)
"Yes, well, I wouldn't consider myself a soldier, I'm much more of a scholar than a combatant."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:48:58 AM)
Serendipity is a scout, and I'm a sailor. Not one of us is any good in a fight, really. And Everbright is toothless at the moment.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:50:00 AM)
"Well Nameless is more of a defender than a fighter himself. At least from what I've gathered given what he actually tells me about himself."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:51:39 AM)
Exactly. I'd need dozens of soldiers. Arms and armor. Mounts maybe. For what? Revenge? Not worth it at all.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:52:09 AM)
"From what Mister Melvin was saying, it seems someone else is already intent on that."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:52:31 AM)
Something is going on, for sure.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:53:52 AM)
"Matter of time, with everything they did, I don't agree with it, but I at least understand that a lot of people were possibly left with reasons to seek vengeance on Dee and Roy."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:54:21 AM)
Nyth is flipping her shit. Convinced the High King himself is marching on us. Or some shit.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:55:08 AM)
"I have a lot of respect for sluagh seers, though I'm certain Miss Nyth is the most stable person."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:55:31 AM)
...no. And she still wants to have dinner with me.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:56:35 AM)
"I don't envy that...at least on your side of things." smiling over her tea a moment before a taking a sip.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:57:04 AM)
No, but you'er amused as shit by it. *he says, sounding maybe a little sulky*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 2:57:52 AM)
"I'm not really sure how I feel about it to be honest." She said with a shrug. "I'm new to a lot of this."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 2:59:08 AM)
Shit, I don't know how to feel about it. Flattered maybe. Worried.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:00:00 AM)
"I don't like her." Azu said, as if with some sudden certainty, one of the most negative things he'd likely heard her say about someone.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 3:00:46 AM)
I don't trust her. I neither like or dislike her though. She might end up being useful, anyway.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:01:41 AM)
She was nodding, but seemed to be pondering herself, amused at something.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 3:02:24 AM)
..What? *he asks, smoke spilling from his lips all at once*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:03:24 AM)
"Just realizing something funny. Sometimes you can talk to people about things for years and not really understand what you're talking about."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 3:03:44 AM)
How so? *asked as he peers at her, curious*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:04:51 AM)
She eyes him and considers a moment before deciding to say something. "I think jealousy is the term for it. It's very odd."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 3:05:44 AM)
Oh. Yeah. What weirds me out is feeling something through my memories I know I've never felt myself. happens all the damn time. Specially with smells.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:06:38 AM)
"How so?" She chooses his own words.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 3:07:44 AM)
Like, I can remember how a griffon smells. Pretty sure I used to ride one. But I've never even -seen- one.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:08:46 AM)
She just blinked at him, trying to decide if he ignores her comments on purpose.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 3:09:47 AM)
S'fucking weird. *he mutters, then stops...turns his head towards her, raises an eyebrow* ...What?
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:10:09 AM)
She sighed and shook her head. "Nothing Captain Octavian."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 3:13:58 AM)
*He takes a drag on the cigar, not willing to push it* Alright then. *then rising, stretching his arms out a bit*I think I need to get to bed. My head hurts. Want to stay? I'll clear a bunk for you if you do.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:16:24 AM)
She considered a moment, as if pondering lists of possible other needs in her head before shaking her head negatively. "No, I'll need to open the store tomorrow morning. But I'll be around to help with what I can sometime again before Carnival." She'd get up to put her tea away.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:16:53 AM)
well wash the cup and put it away*
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 3:17:37 AM)
Don't hesitate to call me if you need help, Azu. *he says, making eye contact with her for a moment to make sure she knows he means it*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:20:00 AM)
She smiled at that as she finished with the washing, nodding. "I appreciate it, and if the need arises I will." She'd walk up and kiss his cheek, offering a light hug. "Feel better."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 3:20:59 AM)
*he gives her a squeeze back...granted, the metal arm makes it crushing rather then light...but he's trying!* Dreaming protect, Carpenter Azu.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 3:21:21 AM)
She rolled her eyes and messed up his hair for that before wandering off.

Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:03:08 PM)
Azu was about again today, fixing a new part of the ship now, the eshuess apparently quite good at keeping herself busy.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:03:51 PM)
*Octavian stomps up from belowdecks, right past Azu without seeming to notice her*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:05:04 PM)
"You all right?" She didn't look up from her consideration of her work carefully removing burned wood while leaving as much of the salvagable wood as possible.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:06:37 PM)
Of course. *said a little sharply, as he enters the wheelhouse, directly over the conference room*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:07:32 PM)
That gets her to look after him, putting tools in a box and leaving it to get later as she dusts off and slips after him curiously.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:08:49 PM)
*He's standing by the wheel, metal hand on the spokes of said round thing, peering out the huge windows at the front of the room*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:10:07 PM)
She leans on the door watching a moment, wiping her face and hands off with a handkerchief, some ash having worn on her during the work.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:12:15 PM)
*He says nothing, hardly moves, the metal hand squeezing the wheel hard enough to earn a creak from the wood*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:13:01 PM)
She'd move in a bit more, voice soft. "Want to talk about it?"
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:15:28 PM)
*He looks back at her, maybe a little surprised. And not all here, really* What?
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:16:01 PM)
She nodded to his hand gripping the wheel. "Care to talk about whatever's bothering you?"
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:17:19 PM)
*He looks to his hand, releasing his grip, flexing the fingers* I...don't...no. No, it's alright. I don't even know.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:19:06 PM)
She nodded a little, not pressing, relaxing some when it didn't seem the sidhe anger bit was quite so bad. "I have those days."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:21:47 PM)
It's been getting worse. Not sure why.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:23:44 PM)
"I don't think omen would be of much help in that case specifically." She said, walking closer and touching his forehead and cheeks, looking at his face like a doctor might check for general things wrong.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:26:22 PM)
*he harumphs, softly, moving towards the window at the front of the room after letting her peer at him for a long moment* I hate feeling out of control.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:27:18 PM)
She'd wait a moment, asking her question as she slipped after him quietly. "Any ideas as to the cause?"
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:28:43 PM)
*he shrugs, gazing* Not sure. Maybe because I'm not running anymore.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:29:22 PM)
"Running from something, or in general?"
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:32:01 PM)
Both, really. I've stayed on the Everbright specifically to avoid politics...and now I'm not doing that anymore.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:33:17 PM)
She nodded, thoughtfully. "Are you concerned they'll try something at the party?"
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:35:15 PM)
Consider it a possibility. Likelyhood, actually. But I think it's more general then that.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:35:55 PM)
She looked out, following his gaze and waiting, he'd explain if he wanted to.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:37:03 PM)
My blood is feeling...inspired. Now that I have a cause. A place to exist as I was meant to.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:38:32 PM)
"Fair enough, change your mind about New Orleans then?"
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:41:15 PM)
No. This place is still not for me. I have no real role. I know that, if my blood doesn;t.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:42:07 PM)
"What do you mean then?" Curious, glancing back to him.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:45:13 PM)
My blood, my memories, see through my eyes a place existing in a vacuum. A place with no court. A place where a noble with building in his blood to build a new structure. A new social order, stable and capable of change for the better. Out on the Everbright, I was what I was, and there was no politicing to be had.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:47:11 PM)
"It sounds nice, the place in your memories." She looked back out the window, as if thinking about it.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:48:59 PM)
...It would be built on blood and tears. I see that. My blood may think it's necessary...I, however, am unsure.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:49:57 PM)
"What are you planning to do?" Still pondering the distance.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:50:44 PM)
Nothing. For now.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:51:38 PM)
"Well, when you decide on something, let me know hmm?" Shaking her head from some memory of her own and glancing back to him again.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:53:22 PM)
*he rubs his face* I am unwilling to commit to a conflict on that level. If you meant about myself...Well...New Orleans seems more and more like a good place to base Everbright.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:56:44 PM)
That got her to grin, even if it was just for a moment. "Good." She'd take one of hands then and tug him, albeit not with any real strength, toward the door. "Come, you should get out for a bit."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:57:51 PM)
...Let me get my hat *he mutters, moving to gather it from the conference room*
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 9:58:57 PM)
She chuckles when he grumps some about it, waiting.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 9:59:37 PM)
*He rejoins her, hat on his head, coat being buttoned* Alright.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 10:01:39 PM)
She headed off the ship then, just walking along the docks for now. Nameless peering up and following from a distance, apparently still unhappy with her scent, he gave Octavian the expected dirty look. "Up for something in particular? Somehow you don't seem the dancing sort."
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 10:03:16 PM)
I don't know. Maybe we should hit the parliment to see if anyone is around? See if anyone's found anything interesting.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 10:05:00 PM)
"Sure, works as well. Care to walk for a long while or want to take my car?" She said, and seemed to be plotting something, there was a spark in her eyes.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 10:06:04 PM)
*He eyes her for a moment* We can walk.
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 10:06:55 PM)
She shrugged. "Okay." And she still appeared to be plotting, apparently it didn't have to do with the car. She'd match his pace though, lost in thought.
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 10:07:58 PM)
*He lapses into silence, and hyper-alertness. Almost as if expecting an ambush* (after you!)
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 10:08:49 PM)
(?)
Octavian Vanderaa (Feb 22, 2011 10:10:14 PM)
(thought you wanted to jump rooms :-p )
Azu Ongokos (Feb 22, 2011 10:10:34 PM)
(ah...yeah...*sheepish* *heads that way*)
