welcome to #suburbansenshi2

[00:02] <Matsumi Kaze> Bixia
[00:03] <Matsumi Kaze> I would prefer to capture mormeril
[00:03] <Bixia Yuanjin> ?
[00:03] <Matsumi Kaze> (( I CLAIM THIS LOG IN THE NAME OF THE THEATER ))
[00:03] <Bixia Yuanjin> I won't go out of my way to find him, then.
[00:04] <Matsumi Kaze> the rest you are free to destroy
[00:04] * Bixia Yuanjin nodsnods
[00:05] * Domovoi puts a pillow behind Bixia, just in case she wants to rest her head
[00:05] *** Domovoi has left #suburbansenshi2
[00:08] * Matsumi Kaze nibbles on a cookie
[00:08] <Bixia Yuanjin> I guess that's all I've got to say about that. .-.
[00:09] <Matsumi Kaze> heh....
[00:13] * Bixia Yuanjin adjusts to recline, not sure if sleepy yet or not, incorporating surprise pillow
[00:16] <ArcheryGirl> Beware of strange pillows. Could be a carniverous pillow mimic
[00:16] <Bixia Yuanjin> I don't taste good so I'm not so worried.
[00:20] <Matsumi Kaze> how do you know :P
[00:20] <Bixia Yuanjin> Do you want to try? :3
[00:20] * Bixia Yuanjin cranes her neck to the side, suggestively
[00:22] * Matsumi Kaze bites bixia's leg
[00:23] <Bixia Yuanjin> acpkth I DIDN'T MEAN THERE
[00:23] * Bixia Yuanjin laughs, squirms away
[00:23] * Matsumi Kaze giggles
[00:38] <Matsumi Kaze> sorry about that
[00:39] <Bixia Yuanjin> Well sometimes you see something you're obliged to do.
[00:42] <Matsumi Kaze> mmhm
[00:56] * Bixia Yuanjin stands up, brushes herself off, and waves
[00:57] * Bixia Yuanjin is away 
[01:03] <Matsumi Kaze> I probably should get some sleep
[01:03] <Matsumi Kaze> night
[01:07] *** Matsumi Kaze [AirGal@QTech.com] has left #suburbansenshi2

[11:31] * Yaijinden paces out a circle
[11:35] <Yaijinden> Beginning, middle, means, and end.
[11:41] *** Newborn Lich has joined #suburbansenshi2
[11:41] <@spiritflame> irasshai Newborn Lich
[11:42] * Newborn Lich walks inside the room.
[11:42] *** Freya [CatGirl1@QTech.com] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[11:42] <@spiritflame> irasshai Freya
[11:42] * Freya wanders downstairs, streaching
[11:44] <Freya> morning
[11:44] * Newborn Lich nods, and heads outside to greet the forest.
[11:44] <Yaijinden> Sniffu.
[11:44] <Newborn Lich> ...I love how it never really changes time. It's cool, and quiet, and shadowy, and perfect.
[11:44] * Newborn Lich sniffs the air.
[11:45] <Yaijinden> Yay that!
[11:46] <Newborn Lich> I wonder if the top of the trees is just too high and thick with leaves for us to see the sun?
[11:48] * Yaijinden places himself outside the paced circle and sits seiza
[11:55] <Freya> what are you doing
[11:55] * Yaijinden scratches himself, readjusts his posture
[11:55] <Yaijinden> Sitting.
[12:04] * Yaijinden rises to his feet
[12:04] <Yaijinden> On the bright side, sitting is still boring as f[BLEEP]k.
[12:06] * Yaijinden stretches luxuriously
[12:06] <Yaijinden> How are your Things, Freya?
[12:07] <Freya> oh fine I suppose
[12:08] <Freya> wanted to spend some time with my husband but we're both busy
[12:08] <Yaijinden> You should make time. ♫
[12:09] <Yaijinden> It is, of course, easy as sin for me to say that, but~
[12:11] * Newborn Lich simply watches Yaijinden.
[12:12] <Yaijinden> Time is one of those funny things. It's all you have, and you don't own any of it.
[12:13] <Yaijinden> Subsequently, what you do with it is entirely in your hands.
[12:14] <Yaijinden> Consequences to every action, but actions are chosen.
[12:21] * Newborn Lich sits cross-legged on the loam.
[12:22] <Yaijinden> Ave Fortuna.
[12:22] <Yaijinden> I couldn't have done it better myself.
[12:22] <Newborn Lich> Hail effort.
[12:23] <Yaijinden> Hnnnnnnnn~?
[12:27] <Newborn Lich> I wonder if she's still here? Maybe she's avoiding me.
[12:29] <Yaijinden> Effort is a fine and dandy thing! But it's also very easily misspent.
[12:30] <Newborn Lich> Examples?
[12:32] <Newborn Lich> ...Or not.
[12:32] <Yaijinden> Any attempt to achieve immortality and transcendance through works alone.
[12:32] <Newborn Lich> I suppose you are going to tell me that you must stumble upon such things?
[12:33] <Yaijinden> Ha! A person could stumble blindly through darkness for an age and a day and not find anything worthwhile.
[12:34] <Yaijinden> That is, in fact, what most people busy themselves with on a daily basis.
[12:37] <Yaijinden> Even the enlightened~.
[12:37] <Yaijinden> Any state of mind is vulnerable to distraction.
[12:39] <Newborn Lich> Even the most driven, you think?
[12:39] <Yaijinden> I would say the most driven are most vulnerable to distraction.
[12:39] * Freya yawns
[12:40] <Yaijinden> They must justify their every action in the face of whatever drives them, and thus even the smallest of tangential thoughts or stimulations holds paramount importance.
[12:40] <Newborn Lich> ...Why should I listen to you?
[12:41] <Yaijinden> HA!
[12:41] <Yaijinden> You shouldn't.
[12:41] <Yaijinden> I'm bad news. :3
[12:41] <Newborn Lich> So I've heard.
[12:41] <Yaijinden> By no means do I have a greater understanding myself.
[12:42] <Yaijinden> But I love what I do, and I love this benighted, mad, self-sabotaging cosmos we collectively inhabit.
[12:43] <Newborn Lich> I don't understand that... Every mystic and hermit, we go to them out of recognition of our own lack of enlightenment as more than we believe in theirs.
[12:43] <Yaijinden> If people accuse me of wisdom, it is because what I say means something to them.
[12:43] <Newborn Lich> You are a temple babbler, whose wisdom is purely found in interpretation?
[12:44] * Newborn Lich shrugs, and looks back at the House.
[12:44] <Yaijinden> That's what I say. I may be wrong. :D
[12:45] <Yaijinden> I am so frequently wrong!
[12:46] <Newborn Lich> I was wrong about you, I guess.
[12:47] * Yaijinden flails frenetically
[12:47] <Yaijinden> Yay?!
[12:47] <Newborn Lich> No "yay."
[12:47] <Yaijinden> Double yay!
[12:50] * Yaijinden skips off to enjoy something tasty
[12:50] * Newborn Lich looks at Yai judgementally.
[12:51] * Newborn Lich turns to the forest. "Perhaps it is something I'm blind to."
[12:51] <Newborn Lich> Let's hope so.
[12:51] * Miara[fur] looks at zairafirefly.
[12:51] *** zairafirefly is a young woman with brown hair and blue eyes. She wears glasses, a black shirt with purple butterflies, and jeans. She is an editor and can usually be seen writing, with a book or knitting. More information about her is Here.
Her image Song is: "Something Beautiful" by Newsboys.
[12:52] * Newborn Lich looks at Aspirant Snark.
[12:52] *** Aspirant Snark is rather tall young man of 6'3." The shirt he is wearing is loose and comfortable, and he wears shorts regardless of the season. If you still haven't looked away, you have probably caught him smirking or laughing at something.
His image Song is: "Safety Dance" by Men Without Hats.
[12:53] <Freya> zzzz
[12:56] * Newborn Lich goes over and picks up Freya. He scratches her ears.
[12:57] * Freya purrs in her sleep
[12:58] * Miara[fur] looks at zairafirefly.
[12:58] *** zairafirefly is a young woman with brown hair and blue eyes. She wears glasses, a black shirt with purple butterflies, and jeans. She is an editor and can usually be seen writing, with a book or knitting. More information about her is Here.

[14:10] <@spiritflame> irasshai Yaijinden
[14:10] <Yaijinden> Poking heads.
[14:10] <Yaijinden> Fingernails.
[14:14] *** Freya [CatGirl1@QTech.com] has left #suburbansenshi2
[14:14] <Yaijinden> On the chalkboard, trailing.
[14:19] * Yaijinden busies himself with brushing up on logs
[14:25] <Yaijinden> Mmm. I could, in theory, watch everything As It Happened.
[14:25] * Yaijinden queues that up!
[15:09] <@Wolf> hmmmmm
[15:09] <@Wolf> [URL]
[15:09] <@Wolf> wonder if I should topic this
[15:11] <Miara[fur]> (( yes? ))
[15:12] <Miara[fur]> (( also, posted a question. a little more direction might also be helpful? ))
[15:15] * @Wolf changes topic to `Suburban Senshi:Tales from the Multiverse - create and vote!`
[15:15] <@Wolf> (( responded ))
[15:36] * zairafirefly looks at Anthony Suthers.
[15:36] *** Anthony Suthers is Is an extremely damaged AI in a body that served as an assassin. Most of its face has been melted off, there is a huge puncture wound in its torso, and it's wrist has been hacked open by an axe. He was injured this way while trying to avenge his sons.
His image Song is: The theme from "Bladerunner".
[15:37] <zairafirefly> how...unhelpful :/
[17:10] <ArcheryGirl> ....
[17:51] <Yaijinden> Hee hee.
[17:52] <Yaijinden> Already seeds in motion.
[17:52] * Yaijinden continues log-diving
[17:59] * Aescapulus is being counterproductive and informing you that he/she/it/whatever is lurking.
[18:46] * Lady DeVenger leaves out a care package with parts for Suthers. He can determine for himse;f their nature and use what he needs to repair his damaged structure.
[18:49] * Aescapulus nods to Lady DeVenger
[18:49] * Lady DeVenger nods back.
[18:49] <Lady DeVenger> Quite an interesting telepresence unit you have there.
[18:50] <Aescapulus> Thank You. I determined, given the nature of this place, anything less robust would be cost ineffective.
[18:51] <Aescapulus> I hear you're offering security services?
[18:52] <Lady DeVenger> Yes.
[18:53] <Lady DeVenger> Though a construct of your design hardly seems in need of such.
[18:53] <Aescapulus> I am not. But I find it interesting that you induce people to pay to test your technology.
[18:54] <Lady DeVenger> You are misinformed.
[18:54] <Lady DeVenger> My technology works.
[18:54] <Aescapulus> If it survives here, nothing can touch it, one presumes.
[18:54] <Aescapulus> It works, certainly.
[18:54] <Lady DeVenger> I'm simply passing on simple technological solutions to domestic problems.
[18:54] <Aescapulus> But you've seen the powers that get used here.
[18:55] <Lady DeVenger> ..And?
[18:55] <Aescapulus> Even things that work, aren't always enough.
[18:55] <Lady DeVenger> Admittedly some magics are troublesome.
[18:55] <Lady DeVenger> But that's because I sell primarily defensive solutions.
[18:56] <Aescapulus> Given your stated objectives with the universe, it seems obvious that you are in some sense testing solutions to future problems.
[18:56] <Lady DeVenger> My personal first instinct would simply be to kill whatever threatens me. But I understand that is a disfavored position here.
[18:56] <Lady DeVenger> ...I had not considered that.... until you mentioned it.
[18:58] <Aescapulus> Killing threats tends to create martyrs, I have observed.
[18:58] <Lady DeVenger> Martyrs are fun.
[18:59] <Lady DeVenger> they induce legions of followers to come after them, crashing into the waves of their own destruction.
[18:59] <Aescapulus> But they only have to win once. You have to win every time.
[19:00] <Lady DeVenger> Any successful leader has to win every time.
[19:00] <Lady DeVenger> Or... every imprtant time.
[19:01] <Aescapulus> Oh, individual battles are low priorities.
[19:02] <Aescapulus> But if the population hates and fears you, then you have problems.
[19:03] <Lady DeVenger> You assume they will hate and fear me.
[19:03] <Aescapulus> Ah. A series of puppets, who overthrow each other every so often in a cathartic bloodbath?
[19:04] <Lady DeVenger> Emmanuel Goldstein is the enemy.
[19:04] <Lady DeVenger> Or Oceania.
[19:04] <Lady DeVenger> Or Pacifica.
[19:05] <Lady DeVenger> Yes.
[19:05] <Lady DeVenger> Internecine conflict , carefully managed is the way to power.
[19:06] <Aescapulus> It has potential. But it tends to be fragile.
[19:06] <Aescapulus> Unless it is backed up with the Maslow Hierarchy.
[19:07] <ArcheryGirl> Then I wouldn't talke about your plans here. Everythg that happens here is recorded
[19:08] <Aescapulus> Ah Mistress Kwon.
[19:08] <Lady DeVenger> No one who can see the logs is of any concern to me.
[19:08] <Yaijinden> Long game in mind.
[19:08] <ArcheryGirl> Until the logs are released to someone you do fear
[19:08] <Lady DeVenger> Precisely.
[19:08] <Yaijinden> Strange, faraway concerns.
[19:08] <Aescapulus> Her plans have been available in the public record for seventy years.
[19:08] <Lady DeVenger> Long and distant.
[19:09] <Lady DeVenger> If, for sake of argument, I was to start...
[19:09] <Lady DeVenger> Things would be stirring in the outer rim of the universe.
[19:09] <Lady DeVenger> Small, unrelated incidents.
[19:09] <Lady DeVenger> But which, combined, create a net effect.
[19:10] <Lady DeVenger> By the time the effects reached this little corner of Mutter's Spiral, believe me, no one woul dbe reading the logs.
[19:10] <ArcheryGirl> So you don't mind if I go there now and share them then
[19:10] <Lady DeVenger> But this is all Hypothetical of course.
[19:10] * Lady DeVenger shrugs. "Go ahead."
[19:11] <Lady DeVenger> Reveal all the details you have.
[19:11] <Aescapulus> What would they do?
[19:11] <Yaijinden> If you could prove something was her work, as opposed to any of the thousands upon thousands of would-be despots who have their own designs independent of hers...
[19:11] <Lady DeVenger> All the specifics.
[19:12] <Lady DeVenger> Oh wait... there are precious few of those.
[19:12] <Lady DeVenger> Other than general principles any half-rate political scientist would already know.
[19:12] <Yaijinden> Maybe things are more orderly where you come from, but here and now is a seething cauldron of potential.
[19:13] <Aescapulus> I find interaction is the best thing I can do at this point in time. Perhaps she will convince me, perhaps I will convince her. Until then, civility seems called for.
[19:15] * Lady DeVenger shrugs. "I wonder if the AI will take the parts."
[19:15] <Yaijinden> Suthers?
[19:15] <Yaijinden> Ye god he had a thing for my shadow.
[19:15] <Aescapulus> Master Suthers has a probability of suspecting a trap.
[19:16] <Lady DeVenger> I concur.
[19:16] <Lady DeVenger> His breakdown as Lord Thrash tried to help him was.. interesting.
[19:17] <Lady DeVenger> Then again he had a directly antagonistic relationship with him.
[19:17] <Aescapulus> One wonders if he is somehow aware of the deleted timeline.
[19:17] <Yaijinden> Recently?
[19:17] * Yaijinden flips forward months
[19:17] <Aescapulus> Yesterday Yaijinden.
[19:18] <Lady DeVenger> If you are aware of the deleted timeline, and he still has access to you, it is possible.
[19:18] <Lady DeVenger> Of course at his trial there was some reference to it.
[19:18] * Yaijinden reads-reads ♫
[19:18] <Lady DeVenger> This could have prompted further investigation.
[19:18] <Aescapulus> I am aware thanks to high exposure to Arton energies in my early existence.
[19:19] <Lady DeVenger> Hmm,
[19:19] <Lady DeVenger> I could give you Time-Proof data storage matrices.
[19:20] <Yaijinden> Eeeeehee hee hee.
[19:20] <Yaijinden> Okay, this is frigging CLASSIC.
[19:20] <Yaijinden> I am almost sorry I was not there!
[19:20] <Aescapulus> I am certain I would be aware if Master Suthers or his progeny attempted to access my mind.
[19:21] <Lady DeVenger> What amuses you in particular about this incident, Sir Yaijinden?
[19:21] <Aescapulus> Time Proof, Lady DeVenger?
[19:21] <Yaijinden> ...ooh, I think what I like best is the way it ended.
[19:22] <Yaijinden> Not with a bang, but an assertion of lawless lawfulness.
[19:22] <Aescapulus> It was a uniquely appropriate decision.
[19:23] <Yaijinden> The weapon is revealed for what it is.
[19:23] <Lady DeVenger> Yes, Aescapulus. Data recordation apparatuses that perfectly preserve all data in the face of any temporal changes or shifts.
[19:23] <Lady DeVenger> Weapon? Do you mean Suthers' construction or ideological ambitions?
[19:23] <Yaijinden> Yes! :D
[19:24] <Lady DeVenger> Heh.
[19:24] <Aescapulus> Hmm. I shall take your offer under advisement.
[19:25] <Yaijinden> I currently can't be bothered to figure out what he's planning to release into the mainstream, but that may change over time.
[19:25] <Yaijinden> The cosmos he seems to come from is... bounded, in ways that this one isn't.
[19:26] <Lady DeVenger> I am not so sure it's his cosmos.
[19:26] <Yaijinden> nn~?
[19:27] <Lady DeVenger> Unles I miss my guess he's constructed with those limits in place.
[19:27] <Aescapulus> One suspects he was born of an A.I. hierarchy, and he certainly was not part of the ruling class.
[19:27] <Lady DeVenger> Which may or may not be the norm for his homeworld.
[19:28] <Yaijinden> Freely granted! But the fact that an entity like him exists speaks... interestingly of its makers.
[19:29] <Aescapulus> Given his design, one assumes a native biological population as well.
[19:29] <Yaijinden> I'd go if I could, just to troll it hardcore.
[19:29] <Lady DeVenger> Indeed. Of course it could be a simple AI evolution run amok.
[19:30] <Lady DeVenger> You know, first generation designed to help man,fifth genration thinks man is a wasteful create, decides to enforce conservation of resources, etc.
[19:30] <Aescapulus> Potentially. Low probability though.
[19:30] <Lady DeVenger> ^crature
[19:30] * Lady DeVenger sighs, takes Vindicator and slowly drives its tip into the head of a typo-daemon
[19:31] <Yaijinden> Still totally troll-worthy.
[19:31] * Lady DeVenger continues to converse while slowly killing it
[19:31] <Yaijinden> I am ten trolls, each with ten bridges.
[19:31] <Yaijinden> And in trolling, break it.
[19:32] <Aescapulus> One suspects intentional abrogation of rights in face of environmental collapse, otherwise maintenance of biological population is a much lower probability.
[19:33] <Aescapulus> Beware of Goats, Yaijinden.
[19:33] *** [DEKA]Adam Kanal [a.kanal@SPD.or.jp.ea] has joined #suburbansenshi2

[19:33] <ArcheryGirl> a dictorship or totalriation style government most likely
[19:34] <Aescapulus> Oh, almost a certainty Mistress Kwon.
[19:35] <Yaijinden> I welcome a good goat.
[19:35] <Yaijinden> There are two things essential to me: faith, and doubt.
[19:35] <Yaijinden> A good goat encourages the latter.
[19:35] <Yaijinden> A bad goat feeds me.
[19:35] <Yaijinden> As do mediocre goats.
[19:36] <Aescapulus> Highest probability in current models is an oligarchic aicracy encouraging a surveillence police state.
[19:36] <Aescapulus> And you want to get goats, Yaijinden?
[19:38] <Yaijinden> Every strong opposition teaches me how I could be wrong.
[19:38] <Yaijinden> Goat-getting, to abuse the metaphor some more, is icing on the cake.
[19:39] <Lady DeVenger> Is his opposition strong or merely rote regurgitation?
[19:39] <Aescapulus> Yes, Lady DeVenger.
[19:39] <Aescapulus> Or are we not speaking of Yaijinden?
[19:39] <Lady DeVenger> rote regurgitation is not strong.
[19:40] <Lady DeVenger> I speak of Suthers.
[19:40] <Aescapulus> Ah.
[19:40] <ArcheryGirl> I don't think it was a yes no questionanyways
[19:40] <Yaijinden> Suthers himself? I'm guessing not so much.
[19:40] <Yaijinden> What he represents, though!
[19:41] <Aescapulus> The opposition to Suthers government, or Suthers opposition to something else.
[19:41] <Lady DeVenger> One good virus and all that opposition could be wiped away.
[19:41] <Yaijinden> Mindless, rote idolatry, enforced at sword's end.
[19:43] *** Lady DeVenger [darkone@shada.sen] has left #suburbansenshi2 (IF he doesn't take the parts I will reclaim them later.)
[19:43] <Aescapulus> mindless...

[19:44] <@spiritflame> irasshai Franziska von Karma
[19:44] <Aescapulus> Master Suthers seems perfectly capable of self-reflection.
[19:44] <Aescapulus> But he has purposeful holes in his reasoning.
[19:45] * Franziska von Karma sits at the bar, taking a simple c[BLEEP]ktail.
[19:45] * Franziska von Karma idly watches the lobby, pondering.
[19:46] <Yaijinden> To leave those holes is cognitive laziness.
[19:46] <Aescapulus> Can he be considered to be mindless, or is he the victim of cultural memetic programming?
[19:46] <Yaijinden> The two are not necessarily different.
[19:47] <Aescapulus> It shifts the agency of the laziness.
[19:47] <Franziska von Karma> Who are you saying is lazy?
[19:48] <Franziska von Karma> Suthers or his creators?
[19:48] <Yaijinden> Suthers, in his weird little way.
[19:48] <Aescapulus> Master Anthony Suthers in this specific case.
[19:48] <Franziska von Karma> I disagree.
[19:48] <Yaijinden> Mmm?
[19:48] <Aescapulus> But given memetic programming, he was made lazy by his masters.
[19:48] <Franziska von Karma> Laziness implies that someone is deliberately avoiding confronting things.
[19:48] <Yaijinden> (that is a signal request to go on)
[19:49] <Franziska von Karma> I don't think he CAN confront them.
[19:49] <Yaijinden> (excellent; it was not misinterpreted!)
[19:49] <Franziska von Karma> Reading the transcript of the trial, Prosecutor Sylvanran tried to push the point.
[19:49] <Aescapulus> Then we merely disagree on the terminology.
[19:49] <Franziska von Karma> Tried to get him to question.
[19:49] <Franziska von Karma> Or to see if he had.
[19:49] <ArcheryGirl> We get signal
[19:50] <Franziska von Karma> But there seemed to be a block.
[19:50] <Franziska von Karma> Unfortuantely Prosecutor Sylvanran never could determine how fundamental that block was.
[19:50] <Franziska von Karma> It's a question that bothers me, asw well.
[19:50] <Yaijinden> Mmmmmmmmmm~
[19:50] <Aescapulus> That is true. But that doesn't compromise his status.
[19:51] <Yaijinden> Now I miss having been there even more!
[19:51] <Franziska von Karma> I'm not interested in his status.
[19:51] <Aescapulus> You have things that you would have great trouble questioning as well.
[19:51] <Franziska von Karma> I'm interested in how guilty can an automaton be.
[19:52] <Franziska von Karma> And how much of one is he?
[19:52] <Aescapulus> Was that not the core of the question asked at his trial?
[19:52] <Yaijinden> That sumptuous gray area.
[19:53] <Franziska von Karma> And never truly answered.
[19:53] <Franziska von Karma> is he just a salmon swimming uphill at his maker's request?
[19:53] <Franziska von Karma> What if there is a trigger that will shut down what independence he has?
[19:54] <Franziska von Karma> Prosecutor Sylvanran granted him manhood based on his willingness to bend the rules and have his children.
[19:54] <Aescapulus> Interesting questions. But would Master Suthers answer them?
[19:54] <Franziska von Karma> But he never truly stated he would break the law.
[19:55] <Franziska von Karma> Which would be the touchstone.
[19:55] <Aescapulus> But dangerously, he can reinterpret the law.
[19:56] <Aescapulus> Madame Sylvanran showed him how to do that.
[19:56] <Franziska von Karma> This whole foolish enterprise...
[19:57] <Yaijinden> Lovely!
[19:57] <Yaijinden> All of it.
[19:57] <Aescapulus> And poor Yaijinden missed all the foolishness.
[19:57] <Franziska von Karma> This man uses the law like a toy for his own desires.
[19:58] <Aescapulus> Your insight may have been most valuble Yaijinden.
[19:58] <Franziska von Karma> But are they even HIS desires.
[19:58] <Franziska von Karma> ... Kerrick.
[19:59] <Yaijinden> Who?
[19:59] <Franziska von Karma> This is like the unfortunate situation with Prosecutor Sylvanran and Kerrick's alternate appearances.
[19:59] <Franziska von Karma> The Lich.
[19:59] <Yaijinden> Oooooh.
[19:59] <Franziska von Karma> Kerrick's illusions don't know they are Kerrick at all.
[20:00] <Franziska von Karma> They literally believe themselves to be a philosopher or a starlet.
[20:00] <Franziska von Karma> This is why, when examined by Prosecutor Sylvanran, the girl could not give up the truth.
[20:00] <Franziska von Karma> There was no truth fofr her.
[20:00] <Franziska von Karma> ^for
[20:01] <Franziska von Karma> Similarly, with Suthers...
[20:01] <Franziska von Karma> He may have no knowledge whatsoever of any limits on his behavior.
[20:01] <Franziska von Karma> He may believe himself to have full agency.
[20:01] <Franziska von Karma> When, in fact, he has none beyond trivial things.
[20:02] <Yaijinden> How refreshingly human.
[20:02] <Franziska von Karma> (Trivial being relative)
[20:02] * Franziska von Karma drinks
[20:02] <Aescapulus> I would agree aijinden.
[20:03] <Franziska von Karma> I just hope I did the right thing by not prosecuting.
[20:03] <Yaijinden> For what it's worth, I find it reasonable.
[20:03] <Aescapulus> You can always petition to have that changed.
[20:04] <Aescapulus> But the opposite is not true.
[20:04] <Franziska von Karma> No, Defense Attorney Xadium said some reasonable things to me.
[20:04] <Franziska von Karma> I believe this place is better left self-regulating.
[20:05] <Aescapulus> I do not disagree with your decision Madame von Karma.
[20:05] <Franziska von Karma> I just... don't want to see a bloodbath becase of it.
[20:05] <Aescapulus> I merely say that the current decision may be changed if hindsight proves the decision in error.
[20:06] <Franziska von Karma> Yes. But that ignores the possible suffering beforehand.
[20:07] <Aescapulus> Sometimes suffering is required for lessons to be learned.
[20:08] <Franziska von Karma> As a Prosecutor my job is to reduce overall suffering.
[20:08] <Aescapulus> That is what Raihosha says about some of his longterm planning.
[20:08] * Franziska von Karma says this as she whips a foolish Typo-demon
[20:09] <Aescapulus> Madame von Karma, if a lesson isn't learned, then mistakes are repeated. The overall suffering goes up despite short term amelioration.
[20:09] <Yaijinden> There is an easy answer.
[20:10] <Yaijinden> It's the terrible fun one.
[20:10] <Yaijinden> PRE-EMPTIVE HILARITY.
[20:10] <Yaijinden> Which is to say "violence."
[20:11] <Aescapulus> I'll observe then.
[20:11] * Aescapulus is away 
[20:11] * Franziska von Karma sighs. "That's what I'll be doing too."
[20:12] <Yaijinden> And I will do whatever I want, because yes!
[20:16] <Franziska von Karma> If nothing else, this foolish circus will be interesting to see.
[20:17] <Yaijinden> That is the best part about this place.
[20:23] * Franziska von Karma flips through her organizer
[20:24] <Franziska von Karma> So you're the infamous Yaijinden.
[20:25] <Yaijinden> That is me, yes.
[20:26] <Yaijinden> Do you have data on me and what does it say :D
[20:28] <Franziska von Karma> My note son you are as follows: "Foolish Fool who impresses others with his Foolishness that mostly isn't."
[20:28] * Yaijinden nods sagaciously
[20:29] <Yaijinden> Sometimes it is weird to have a reputation that precedes you!
[20:29] <Yaijinden> But then again it sets people up for the right kind of wariness.
[20:31] <Yaijinden> And the rest of the time it lulls people into false appreciations.
[20:31] <Yaijinden> And those go snap.
[20:32] // GINGA net.news FLASH // · · The ongoing joke that Ikea's flat-pack furniture is confusingly complicated to assemble might be rendered moot now that the Swedish company is rolling out video assembly instructions that look considerably easier to follow than its printed manuals. · ·
[20:34] <ArcheryGirl> Any time I think of Ikea, I think of sweden. And when I think of sweden, I think of swedish fish. Which makes me wonder, areSwedish fish from Sweden, and if not, why do they sell them at IKEa?
[20:34] <Yaijinden> I'd ask you of your opinion of the place, but I think I've gotten it in a drip-line.
[20:34] <Franziska von Karma> Foolish?
[20:34] * Franziska von Karma shrugs.
[20:35] <Yaijinden> That much, clearly.
[20:35] <Yaijinden> But does it diversify from there?
[20:35] <Franziska von Karma> Not as much now that i've been here a few weeks. But maddening, most certainly.
[20:36] <Yaijinden> Best that you came recently rather than before, then. :o
[20:36] <Yaijinden> Things were... more political then~. Messier.
[20:37] <Franziska von Karma> It reminds me so much of the island of Roanapur in southeast Thailand.
[20:37] <Franziska von Karma> A wild, untamed madman's paradise.
[20:39] * Yaijinden nods, reminiscing
[20:40] <Yaijinden> Fertile ground.
[20:41] <Yaijinden> Full of its own self-possessed importance and manic energy.
[20:43] <Franziska von Karma> Like I said, it'll be interesting to watch.
[20:44] <Yaijinden> I might just choose to step in the way of the flood when it happens.
[20:44] <Yaijinden> Not knowing is delicious.
[20:48] <Yaijinden> Some of these people I've realized I don't know from Adam! Entirely new puzzles to sit down and tease into understandability.
[20:49] <Franziska von Karma> Some of them don't look like they will take kindly to teasing.
[20:50] <Yaijinden> Their resistance will excite me! :D
[20:53] <Franziska von Karma> How frightening
[20:54] <Yaijinden> Anything that can withstand me is worth letting be.
[20:54] <Yaijinden> Anything that can be broken, must be.

[20:54] <Suu> Evening...
[20:54] <Franziska von Karma> Good evening, Yotsuba Suu.
[20:54] <ArcheryGirl> Hey
[20:54] * Yaijinden waves!
[20:55] <Yaijinden> People worship at the idols of things that came before, even when that knowledge only causes them suffering-- even when doing so causes them to suffer a slow, agonizing death of the heart.
[20:58] <Yaijinden> The blind hunger to take things for granted is high among the great self-deceptions-- harmless in itself, but easily compounded into something far worse.
[21:00] * Franziska von Karma nods
[21:00] <Suu> Evening, Von Karma-san
[21:01] * Suu sits down next to Franziska.
[21:01] <Suu> What's happening?
[21:01] *** Cora has joined #suburbansenshi2
[21:01] <@spiritflame> irasshai Cora
[21:02] <Cora> Good evening.
[21:02] <Franziska von Karma> Just chatting with Mister Yaijinden.
[21:02] <Franziska von Karma> Good evening.
[21:03] <Yaijinden> It doesn't look like there'll be absurdities tonight, but there's always the late hours.
[21:03] <Yaijinden> I get my good rambles on then.
[21:03] <Franziska von Karma> I may not be able to watch, I've been forced to replace Prosecutor Sylvanran at the Alein Zone Courts.
[21:04] <Yaijinden> How's that working out for you so far?
[21:05] * Franziska von Karma sighs
[21:05] <Franziska von Karma> Now I know how he feels, always litigating by the seat of one's pants.
[21:06] <Yaijinden> :3
[21:06] <Franziska von Karma> I'm use dot being in much more control of my prosecutions.
[21:07] * Cora sits in the window seat, smelling a poey of flowers and herbs
[21:08] <Cora> *posy
[21:11] * Suu sits back...
[21:11] <Suu> man...
[21:11] <Suu> Hey, there was something I wanted to talk to you about the other night...
[21:11] <Franziska von Karma> Me?
[21:14] <Suu> Yeah.
[21:15] <Suu> Did you feel bad that you had to let go of all the charges?
[21:15] <Franziska von Karma> What did you want to talk about?
[21:15] <Franziska von Karma> ...Yes.
[21:15] <Franziska von Karma> I'm a Prosecutor. I spent my whole bringing criminals to justice by my own hands.
[21:16] <Franziska von Karma> To have to leave it... and trust that the Wild West Circus will do it...
[21:16] * Franziska von Karma CRACKS her whip on the bar.
[21:16] <Franziska von Karma> I saw that man stab that girl in the side!
[21:16] <Franziska von Karma> With my own eyes!
[21:16] * Cora jumps
[21:16] <Franziska von Karma> I sew him inject her!
[21:16] <Franziska von Karma> ^saw
[21:17] <Franziska von Karma> His excuses about being an agent of "the law" or "trying to protect his children"...
[21:17] <Franziska von Karma> He went too far.
[21:17] <Franziska von Karma> There's noting I want to do more than haul him before a judge.
[21:18] <Franziska von Karma> Have him pronounced Guilty and locked away Forever.
[21:18] * Franziska von Karma looks very angry
[21:18] <Franziska von Karma> I understand why I can't...
[21:18] <Franziska von Karma> But that man has perverted the law into his own weapon...
[21:18] <Franziska von Karma> And it offends me.
[21:19] <Suu> ...
[21:19] <Suu> A few years ago...when I was in junior high...
[21:19] <Suu> the guy that I was dating was kidnapped and tortured...
[21:20] <Suu> I never wanted to see any of my friends go through that again
[21:20] <Suu> but...
[21:20] * Cora listens
[21:20] <Suu> There was nothing I could do at the time to save him...I was completely powerless.
[21:21] <Suu> And then...when someone had control of my mind...they made me hurt someone dear to me...
[21:21] *** DCUO_YingGirl [guardianphoenix@unknowndestiny.com] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[21:21] <@spiritflame> irasshai DCUO_YingGirl
[21:21] <Suu> She forgave me for it, though, but...
[21:21] * Franziska von Karma listens, expression getting angrier.
[21:21] <Suu> Just the fact that I had been rendered powerless to do anything...it brought back all those feelings.
[21:22] <Suu> And then now...
[21:22] <Franziska von Karma> Did anyone help at all?
[21:22] * Suu realizes that Ying is in the room...
[21:22] <Suu> Um. I think we'd better discuss this another time...
[21:22] <DCUO_YingGirl> discuss what?
[21:22] * Franziska von Karma nods, sipping her drink.
[21:23] <Yaijinden> Old bad times.
[21:23] <Suu> I'm just talking with Franziska about things.
[21:23] <DCUO_YingGirl> ...almost like anyone who had crossed me
[21:23] <Suu> My friends...a lot of them you know.
[21:24] * DCUO_YingGirl sighs. Can't believe Templar is really gone
[21:24] <Suu> They stopped some evil people from taking control of a powerful artifact.
[21:24] <Yaijinden> Anthony's bought you a bit of breathing room, but I can't imagine her successor will be uneven.
[21:24] <Yaijinden> You ready for that sort of action, Ying?
[21:25] <DCUO_YingGirl> ...you do realize i have no f[BLEEP]ken clue of what you just said, Yai
[21:25] <Suu> When I came here...I was still very young and naive. I was raised in a research facility where they gave me these wings...
[21:25] * DCUO_YingGirl is dumbfolded
[21:26] <Suu> I had to learn so much about people.
[21:26] <Yaijinden> Anthony stabbed Templar. But there's this Davis fellow who finished the job...
[21:26] <Suu> I was physically very weak and I didn't have much confidence in myself.
[21:26] <Yaijinden> If I'm reading all this correctly-- are you the Eagle girl he was talking about?
[21:26] <Suu> I resolved to get stronger after my friend was kidnapped.
[21:27] <Suu> but...I could never be strong enough, and I couldn't save people...
[21:27] <Suu> I didn't have the power to personally deliver justice.
[21:27] <DCUO_YingGirl> That's the nick they gave me. It was because after being drugged in the animus too long, I developed....
[21:27] * DCUO_YingGirl stays quiet. Was the one who stabbed Davis in order to escape Abstergo
[21:27] <Franziska von Karma> Strength doesn't always come from swords or fists.
[21:28] * Franziska von Karma taps her forehead and her heart
[21:28] <Yaijinden> This Abstergo place looks like it might be able to break Davis out.
[21:28] <Franziska von Karma> It has to start here or the rest is meaningless.
[21:28] * DCUO_YingGirl turns to another subject. "Davis wasn't on good terms with Templar
[21:29] <Yaijinden> He may have people who can get him out-- or who will ultimately replace him.
[21:29] <Yaijinden> And he was quite angry that Templar was slacking off on her job of killing you.
[21:29] * Suu nods.
[21:30] <Suu> That's why I took up the sword.
[21:30] <DCUO_YingGirl> ...Yeah, Davis found out about my bloodline. Why I was slacking around in the Animus Program
[21:30] <Suu> Still...it doesn't seem like enough sometimes...
[21:31] <Yaijinden> I imagine Abstergo will be coming for you, sooner or later.
[21:31] <Suu> But I know what you mean about being powerless. All too well.
[21:31] <Franziska von Karma> It isn't a pleasant feeling.
[21:31] <DCUO_YingGirl> Yeah...but they have other goals. Their main goal is to dominate the whole entire world
[21:32] <DCUO_YingGirl> And I though fighting Greed Demons were bad
[21:34] <DCUO_YingGirl> They only want me dead because I know who they're after and what they want,
[21:35] <DCUO_YingGirl> Templar wasn't bad...she tried to protect my secret
[21:35] <DCUO_YingGirl> but...it cost her many enemies
[21:35] <DCUO_YingGirl> And now she's gone, they will reap the rewards'
[21:36] * Franziska von Karma is away: brb
[21:36] * Yaijinden nods somberly
[21:37] <Yaijinden> This sounds like something you'd prefer to handle on your own.
[21:37] <Yaijinden> Am I right?
[21:38] <DCUO_YingGirl> ...it's for the best,
[21:38] <Suu> Hey, Ying?
[21:38] <DCUO_YingGirl> Besides, no one would care if i die too.
[21:38] <Suu> ...
[21:39] <Suu> - That's not what you say to someone who saved your lie -
[21:39] <Suu> ^life
[21:39] <DCUO_YingGirl> ...I would die, if it ment to save others
[21:39] <Yaijinden> Now that's a sentiment I can understand.
[21:40] <Yaijinden> Let it be your fight, then.
[21:40] <DCUO_YingGirl> If I can afford the money. I'm heading to New York
[21:41] <DCUO_YingGirl> I know I can just fly there, by using the powers from Hitori. But we will still need rest
[21:41] * Suu looks upset
[21:42] <DCUO_YingGirl> There someone who's also been in trhe same abuse in the Animus. Maybe I could help the fight
[21:42] <Yaijinden> You might be able to teach one another a thing or two.
[21:42] <Yaijinden> Never know.
[21:42] <DCUO_YingGirl> yeah...
[21:42] <Suu> - if you didn't want me to save you... -
[21:43] * DCUO_YingGirl looks at Suu. "What's up with her?"
[21:44] <Suu> What's with your attitude?!
[21:45] <DCUO_YingGirl> Kid. I'm sorry if I offend you, but this is a duty of a sailor soldier
[21:45] <DCUO_YingGirl> Sacrifing themselves for the greater good
[21:45] <Yaijinden> She thinks you're wrong about the idea that people wouldn't care if you died.
[21:45] <DCUO_YingGirl> Besides, I walk alone. It's best we're not friends
[21:46] <Suu> I WOULD!
[21:46] <Yaijinden> She's right, for better or worse-- a soldier who dies in the line of duty still has a family.
[21:46] <Yaijinden> So don't be hasty about throwing yourself in a grenade, okay?
[21:46] * DCUO_YingGirl is trying not to cry as she holds herself.
[21:47] <Yaijinden> Or on a grenade, for that matter.
[21:47] <DCUO_YingGirl> sorry kiddo, I need to clean my own messes
[21:47] <Yaijinden> Fight that fight, come back stronger for it.
[21:48] <Yaijinden> But don't be a fool, either. A soldier's duty is not to die for their cause.
[21:48] <Yaijinden> It's to make the other poor ba[BLEEP]rds die for theirs.
[21:48] <Suu> ...
[21:49] <Suu> I still want to be your friend, even if you don't want me to be.
[21:49] <Suu> And I'm willing to defend everyone that's ever been there for me.
[21:49] <DCUO_YingGirl> kid...just stop that.
[21:49] * DCUO_YingGirl is holding herself, shaking
[21:50] <Yaijinden> If you're going to make plans to hit New York, you should start taking account of what resources you have.
[21:50] <DCUO_YingGirl> i'm trying to not get you hurt in the long run
[21:50] * Yaijinden half-smiles wryly
[21:50] <Yaijinden> Ying, nobody avoids that.
[21:51] <Yaijinden> The movies said it best: life is pain. Anyone who says otherwise is selling you something.
[21:52] <Yaijinden> By the same token, pain is as transitory as anything else.
[21:53] <Suu> I know what hurt is.
[21:54] * Franziska von Karma listens to all this quietly.
[21:55] <Yaijinden> If you want to take this thing on yourself, then fine.
[21:55] <Yaijinden> More power to you.
[21:56] <Yaijinden> You've given me more faith in your capacity to do this in the past half an hour than I ever got from the years I knew you before.
[21:56] <DCUO_YingGirl> ...
[21:56] <Yaijinden> I don't know what's changed, but I lik eit.
[21:57] * DCUO_YingGirl is starting to float.
[21:57] <DCUO_YingGirl> i don't want people to treat me like a puppy
[21:58] <Suu> I don't mean to.
[21:58] <Suu> But promise me, if you're going to go somewhere to take care of business, take care of yourself too.
[21:58] <DCUO_YingGirl> I guess, kiddo
[21:59] <Suu> Or I'll steal Dante. ::haert
[22:00] <Suu> ^♡
[22:00] <Yaijinden> Heh.
[22:01] * Davis is with Black_Crow, sitting in a tree. Looking at his gaunlet
[22:03] <Suu> You feeling all right, Franziska?
[22:03] <DCUO_YingGirl> /yeah...
[22:03] <Davis> what...power....
[22:03] <Franziska von Karma> Yes, just listening.
[22:04] * Black_Crow is in her human form.
[22:04] * Franziska von Karma doesn't know YinGirl well enough to weigh in on her decision.
[22:05] <Yaijinden> So yeah. I suppose "your duty is to survive long enough to do the job" is the most I've got to say about it.
[22:05] <Black_Crow> Don't use it yet...otherwise they will knew of your escape. But it's the best I can do, with usuing a Sailor Crystal.
[22:05] <Suu> ...I guess what my motivation is, is to protect the people I care about.
[22:05] * Davis nods.
[22:05] <Suu> and when I can't do that...
[22:06] <Franziska von Karma> Don't be like Anthony Suthers and fall into the trap of believing there is only one way to do things.
[22:06] * Davis is surprised by the gaunlet
[22:07] * Black_Crow teleports away
[22:07] <Franziska von Karma> There's many ways to help and protect your friends.
[22:07] *** Black_Crow [dark_watcher@icedragoon.com] has left #suburbansenshi2 (lets's test the gauntlet on weaker abtsergo agents)
[22:07] *** Davis [walkeragent@abstergoindustries.com] has left #suburbansenshi2 (i like the sound of that)
[22:08] <Franziska von Karma> For instance...
[22:08] <Franziska von Karma> From my observation, there's a need for more healers here.
[22:08] <Suu> Hmm...
[22:08] <Franziska von Karma> Or people who can shield others rapidly.
[22:08] <DCUO_YingGirl> i can't always rely on my phoenix to wake me from the dead
[22:09] <Suu> Raihosha seems to have a handle on the healing part. he's very experienced.
[22:09] <Franziska von Karma> Just because there is one doctor, does that mean that's the end of it?
[22:09] <ArcheryGirl> But combat medics are what we nedd
[22:09] <Franziska von Karma> What if he's busy or not around, or taken out of commission?
[22:10] <Franziska von Karma> There's no shortage of violent fools.
[22:10] <ArcheryGirl> We can carrry the wounded upstairs yes, but front line healing is always useful, be it potions or healing magic or even normal first aid
[22:10] <Franziska von Karma> There should be no shortage of healers either.
[22:10] <Franziska von Karma> You seem to be a very caring person, Yotsuba Suu.
[22:10] <Franziska von Karma> Perhaps the way of the warrior isn't meant for you.
[22:12] * Yaijinden considers that possibility at length
[22:12] * DCUO_YingGirl takes her leave
[22:13] *** DCUO_YingGirl [guardianphoenix@unknowndestiny.com] has left #suburbansenshi2 (To Fight for Love and Justice)
[22:14] * Yaijinden glances at Ying as she goes
[22:14] <Yaijinden> You know, I actually believe that for once.
[22:14] <Yaijinden> Her, moreover.
[22:14] <Franziska von Karma> Hmm?
[22:14] <Franziska von Karma> She did seem sincere.
[22:15] <Suu> ...
[22:15] <Suu> Well, I AM going to open a maid and butler cafe in the future...
[22:18] * Franziska von Karma nods
[22:19] <Suu> but still...
[22:19] <Suu> I think I am still warrior material.
[22:19] *** Suu [FourLeafClover@clampgakuen.ac.jp] has left #suburbansenshi2 (Flying towards the future)
[22:19] <Yaijinden> This has been nice. :3
[22:20] * Franziska von Karma nods and waves goodbye to Yotsuba.
[22:20] <Franziska von Karma> Oh?
[22:21] <Yaijinden> I have been surprised twice!
[22:22] <Franziska von Karma> ...You're used to reading people, aren't you?
[22:22] <Yaijinden> Oh yes.
[22:23] <Franziska von Karma> And today those readings proved incorrect?
[22:23] <Yaijinden> Today, those readings diverged significantly from what I had come to expect.
[22:24] <Yaijinden> I knew Ying as someone stewing in self-pitty and self-hate to the point where she was constantly and regularly sabotaging anything that might elevate her out of the s[BLEEP]t hole she manged to pry herself from.
[22:24] <Franziska von Karma> A brave new world. Mister Yaijinden.
[22:24] <Yaijinden> And Yotsuba Suu, a delicate flower! Starting her own business!
[22:24] <Yaijinden> A risk at best, but there's iron there.
[22:25] <Franziska von Karma> There is. I may have misread her myself.
[22:27] <Yaijinden> O brave new world, with such people in it!
[22:28] <Franziska von Karma> That's somewhat how I feel.
[22:29] <Yaijinden> We can be exploration buddies! :D
[22:30] <Franziska von Karma> Your enthusiasm unnerves me, Mister Yaijinden.
[22:31] <Yaijinden> I am possessed of the perhaps-ridiculous idea that I will endure anything that the universe throws at me. It's hard to not see everything after that as an opportunity.
[22:32] <Franziska von Karma> I can see with you there.
[22:32] <Yaijinden> As they say, "That which does not kill me, makes me breakfast."
[22:34] <Franziska von Karma> ....Of course...
[22:34] <Yaijinden> And as the orks say: if it kills me, I'm dead, so it doesn't matter. If I run away, I come back to plan something bigger. And if I win, I win!

[23:12] <ArcheryGirl> Something going on?

[23:12] <Matsumi Kaze> yeah...my sister is going to visit me this weekend
[23:12] <Matsumi Kaze> and I can't risk her seeing Sarah
[23:13] <Sarah Christensson> can't we just...explain?
[23:13] <ArcheryGirl> One. I doubt she'd reconnize her grandmother hen her gradmohter is 16ish, and secondly, shes' supposed to be dead.Thirdly, your sister is a normal person and would not thing "Oh my god, that's grandma"
[23:14] <Matsumi Kaze> oh yeah..explain what...
[23:14] <Matsumi Kaze> oh Franziska..have you met Sarah? she's my grandmother
[23:14] * Sarah Christensson waves?
[23:14] <ArcheryGirl> Just use a fake name and say it's a coincance
[23:15] <Franziska von Karma> ..
[23:15] <ArcheryGirl> Magic
[23:15] <Franziska von Karma> It shocks me that I'm not surprised much by this turn of events.

[23:26] <ArcheryGirl> Sarah Smith
[23:26] <ArcheryGirl> Probably very common

[23:37] <Matsumi Kaze> my mother's side is the swedish one
[23:38] <ArcheryGirl> I know little about your family. I haven't really looked at the files Eitak and Nivek have on people
[23:41] <Matsumi Kaze> they have a file on me?
[23:44] <ArcheryGirl> They have files on everyone. I would assume your people have a file or two on us too
[23:44] <Matsumi Kaze> just minor ones
[23:44] <ArcheryGirl> It never hurts to have knowlage on your allies. Never know when you might need it

[11:04] <Furu> Oh, heya Reiko.
[11:04] <Ozu Reiko> God damn it, I was too late!
[11:05] <Furu> Too...late for what, exactly?
[11:06] <Ozu Reiko> You've been retconed. Again.
[11:06] <Furu> Buhwha
[11:06] <Furu> I'm pretty sure I woulda noticed that!
[11:07] <Ozu Reiko> You met the other Magirangers at the same time, when they were fighting Infershia after their 'mother' died when they were still in high school and junior high
[11:07] * Furu stretches his no-longer-spindly-nerd arms.
[11:07] <Ozu Reiko> But now, instead of just offering technical help, you too up Hikaru's offer to be his student.
[11:08] <Furu> Uh, yeah. You're not tellin' me anything I don't already know!
[11:08] <Ozu Reiko> Yes, because you were retconed! AGAIN.
[11:09] <Ozu Reiko> Oh god WHAT HAPPENED AT GEKKOKAN HIGH SCHOOL THREE YEARS AGO??! *shakes Furu semi-violently as she asks him*

[11:13] * Ozu Reiko lets Furu go, glaring at where Future Furu went.
[11:14] <Furu> I dunno what you're talkin' about anyway.
[11:15] <Ozu Reiko> Yeah, I can see the timeline changing right now.
[11:16] <Furu> 's still not fair that you get to have time powers like that.
[11:17] <Ozu Reiko> Oh trust me, some days I wish I was normal.
[11:17] <Ozu Reiko> But no, my father had to have a 'baby' with his dead girlfriend.
[11:18] <Ozu Reiko> And now our timeline is this timeline again.
[11:18] <Ozu Reiko> Oh, but HA!
[11:18] * Ozu Reiko points at Furu
[11:18] <Ozu Reiko> All you have is magic! You can't even henshin right now!
[11:19] <Furu> Ouch, way to bring that up.
[11:20] <Furu> Any other painful memories you wanna drag up while we're at it?
[11:21] <Ozu Reiko> Uh
[11:22] <Furu> I miss how cool transformin' was...and helmetless makeouts.
[11:22] * Furu sighs..
[11:22] <Ozu Reiko> Well you'll be lucky, that should be coming back soon.
[11:23] <Furu> Really? But-hey, whoa! No spoilers!
[11:23] * Furu covers his ears
[11:24] * Ikari Momo giggles
[11:24] <Ikari Momo> So, does this mean we don't have to hide whenever we come to this time period now?
[11:24] <Furu> LALALALA
[11:25] <Ikari Momo> I mean, the fact that we're here is enough of a spoiler.
[11:25] <Furu> ...Oh, yeah, good point.
[11:25] * Furu pats his future daughter on the head :3
[11:27] <Ikari Momo> Look. Zangyack is going to make a final attack soon.
[11:27] <Ikari Momo> Make sure the citizens are safe. You'll be greatly rewarded in the end.
[11:28] <Furu> I'd do it even if there was no reward!...but a reward is nice.
[11:29] <Ikari Momo> I know :)
[11:31] * Furu gives Momo a hug. And then goes the same for Reiko because SURELY SHE WILL NOT STAB HIM.
[11:32] * Ozu Reiko only doesn't stab him because he's vital to the future.
[11:32] * Furu thinks that is good enough.
[11:33] <Furu> I wouldn't want Nameless to get jealous~.

[11:36] <Furu> Uh. Furu. Furu Ikari.
[11:37] * Erik sneezes ><
[11:37] <Ikari Momo> This is Sarah Christensson, she's Matsumi-san's grandmother.
[11:37] * Sarah Christensson waves
[11:39] <Sarah Christensson> I was just going to take Erik out for a walk before I work ^^
[11:39] <Furu> Oh, hey! Nice to meet ya. I think. My head's kinda fuzzy today.
[11:40] <Sarah Christensson> are you ill?
[11:41] <Furu> No, just gettin' bombarded with a lot of information at once. I'll be fine.
[11:41] <Ikari Momo> He was retconed.
[11:41] <Furu> Allegedly.
[11:42] <Sarah Christensson> retconned????
[11:43] <Ozu Reiko> He got zapped by one of his Future counterparts
[11:44] <Future Furu> He sure did.
[11:45] <Sarah Christensson> GAH
[11:45] * Sarah Christensson jumps a bit
[11:45] * Future Furu wavity wave
[11:47] <Sarah Christensson> ..so you're from the future?
[11:47] <Future Furu> A future.
[11:47] <@Wolf> One Furu to rule them all.
[11:47] <@Wolf> One Furu to find them.
[11:48] <@Wolf> And in the darkness...I dunno...stuff.
[11:48] <Ozu Reiko> We already did that last season.
[11:48] <@Wolf> Ahh.
[11:48] * Sarah Christensson waves to wolf
[11:49] * Erik looks up at wolf
[11:49] <Ozu Reiko> You may or may not have negated your own future timeline, you know.
[11:49] <Future Furu> I'm still here, aren't I~?
[11:50] * @Wolf waves back
[11:50] * @Wolf is away: shopping!
[11:51] <Ozu Reiko> Which would mean either you didn't or you're a singularity point.
[11:51] <Ozu Reiko> Possibly a junction point.
[11:52] <Future Furu> Or something else! Isn't it all wonderfully ambiguous?
[11:53] <Ozu Reiko> Why did you do this, then?
[11:55] <Sarah Christensson> uh............
[11:56] <Future Furu> .me puts Furu in a Cone of Silence so he can't hear this.
[11:56] * Future Furu ...does that
[11:56] <Future Furu> Because he doesn't need to become me.
[11:56] <Future Furu> He needs her more.
[11:57] <Future Furu> They're stronger this way.
[11:57] <Ozu Reiko> What does Houka offer that Hisui or Jasmine or even [BLEEP] don't?
[11:59] <Future Furu> A well-defined future. Certain happiness. I've ran the numbers, kid. This is as good as it's going to get for him.
[12:00] <Ozu Reiko> I see.
[12:00] <Future Furu> Plus, this way it lets me delete my own timeline and find another one to hang out in. Seriously, that place went to hell while I was away.
[12:01] <Ozu Reiko> Nothing else has changed significantly. SEES is still no longer active, and the resolution of Inaba is still on its way.
[12:02] <Future Furu> See? No muss no fuss. And now he can leave the science to someone who is good at it. Like me.
[12:04] <Future Furu> Now tell me this was a good idea. I need to hear it.
[12:05] <Ozu Reiko> Never.
[12:05] <Yaijinden> And everything worked out forever.
[12:05] <Yaijinden> :D
[12:05] <Yaijinden> Does that comfort you? :D
[12:05] <Ozu Reiko> C'mon, Momo, we've got a Rider/Sentai war to stop.
[12:06] <Future Furu> Yes, yes it does.
[12:06] <Ikari Momo> Oh, right.
[12:06] * Future Furu backs into the shadows...and then just jumps out a window.
[12:06] * Furu breaks out of the cone of silence. With his head.
[12:06] <Furu> OW.
[12:06] <Sarah Christensson> rider..sentai?
[12:06] *** Ozu Reiko [ozureiko@gekkokan.kirijo.ac.jp] has left #suburbansenshi2 (Not even the Dark can stop me.)

[12:07] <Yaijinden> On a scale of one to ten where five is constantly and omnipresently distracting, how much did that hurt?
[12:07] <Furu> Gonna go with a three.
[12:07] * Furu rubs his forehead.
[12:07] <Sarah Christensson> ...I'm still confused
[12:07] * Yaijinden marks this in a notebook
[12:07] <Yaijinden> What's to be confused about?
[12:08] <Sarah Christensson> about what's going on >.>
[12:08] <Yaijinden> Do you know what a retcon is?
[12:12] <Sarah Christensson> no?
[12:13] <Furu> Alleged retcons!
[12:13] <Yaijinden> It's short for retroactive continuity change.
[12:14] <Yaijinden> F[BLEEP]king with someone's past, saying "It happened this way instead", and then their world (and their memory) changes to accomodate the brand new way things ended up working out with that one shift.
[12:17] * Furu shrugs.
[12:17] <Furu> I feel like I'm not missin' whatever was changed.
[12:17] <Yaijinden> It usually doesn't cause much trouble.
[12:18] <Yaijinden> Sometimes people retain a lingering sense of what had been, sometimes they don't.
[12:18] <Yaijinden> Furu's case is apparently the latter, which is helped by his apparently-satisfactory life!
[12:18] <Sarah Christensson> ooooh
[12:19] <Furu> Your face is apparently satisfactory!
[12:19] <Yaijinden> It satisfies many. >:3
[12:21] <Sarah Christensson> I think..I should go...
[12:22] <Furu> Sorry for weirdin' you out!
[12:22] <Furu> Yai probably isn't though.
[12:26] <Yaijinden> Furu is right on that account.
[12:26] <Yaijinden> So: how are tricks.
[12:27] <Furu> Tricktacular, from what I've heard.
[12:27] *** Sarah Christensson has left #suburbansenshi2 (...)
[12:27] *** Erik has left #suburbansenshi2
[12:28] <Furu> Since today has been full of people tellin' me my life suddenly changed and also fun future spoilers.
[12:28] <Yaijinden> Hooray! What about yesterday backwards?
[12:30] <Furu> Same hold. Listenin' to the female part of the Ozu family plannin' wedding stuff.
[12:31] <Furu> Oh and apparently we're getting attacked by an evil space empire in the near future after the whole "giving up our powers to stop them" thing from a while back, so y'know. THAT'S gonna be fun.
[12:32] <Yaijinden> :D
[12:33] <Furu> How's stuff on your end?
[12:34] <MoMoNoKaZe> Well, it's not like we had time to plan Urara-chan's wedding to Hikaru-sensei

[12:34] <@spiritflame> irasshai MoMoNoKaZe
[12:34] <Yaijinden> I'm back from the twilight of not existing in any coherent, tangible sense.
[12:35] <Yaijinden> And, having scarred my name into the fundaments, I have become my legend and my legend has become me.
[12:35] <Yaijinden> There's nothing like hearing the laws of nature scream your name as you twist them into a new shape.
[12:36] <Furu> That sounds horrifying! Awesome.
[12:37] <Yaijinden> It was a promising, perilous adventure that I didn't survive.
[12:37] <Furu> I thought the laws of nature were screaming my name once but it was actually sayin' "Fugu".
[12:37] * Yaijinden pauses
[12:38] <Yaijinden> Hee hee!
[12:38] <Furu> You...look survived.
[12:38] * MoMoNoKaZe gives her fiancé a kiss on the cheek
[12:38] * Furu pats the seat next to him and waggles his eyebrows at Houka.
[12:38] <Yaijinden> I do! That's the beauty of the situation.
[12:39] * MoMoNoKaZe takes the hint and sits down ~~~
[12:40] <Furu> Your existence confuses and frightens me, Yai.
[12:41] <Yaijinden> I find existence in general confusing and frightening myself. That's what makes it exciting!
[12:42] <Furu> Havin' been shot with a retcon laser earlier I can't really disagree.
[12:42] <Furu> ...oh right.
[12:42] <Furu> Hon, I got retconned earlier, but it's cool.
[12:43] <MoMoNoKaZe> You did?
[12:43] <MoMoNoKaZe> Huh, nothing feels different.
[12:43] <Yaijinden> Apparently an hour ago he hadn't accepted Hikaru's offer to come on as a student.
[12:44] <MoMoNoKaZe> That's craqzy!
[12:44] <Yaijinden> I know, right? :D
[12:46] <Furu> It's all weird and dumb and not worth thinkin' about ever again.
[12:49] <MoMoNoKaZe> So, Kaa-san, Urara-chan and I finally picked out a wedding dress!
[12:49] <Furu> How pink is it on a scale of 1 to pink as Hell?
[12:50] <MoMoNoKaZe> I'd give it a 2.
[12:50] <MoMoNoKaZe> Just some pink roses in the train and on the veil, mostly.
[12:51] <Furu> Oh, that's good. Is the rest of the dress white?
[12:51] <MoMoNoKaZe> Yep!
[12:53] <Furu> Oh. Um.
[12:53] * Furu clears his throat.
[12:53] <Furu> Okay!
[12:56] * MoMoNoKaZe giggles
[12:57] <Furu> We can pretend for one day!
[13:00] <Furu> That, y'know, virginal.
[13:02] <MoMoNoKaZe> Yeah.
[13:02] <MoMoNoKaZe> I think I read in a magazine that I can wear white if it's not a plain white dress. Designs and patterns should be on it. And pearls.
[13:03] <Furu> Designs and patterns should be on wedding dresses anyway.
[13:05] <MoMoNoKaZe> Oh, the time!
[13:05] * MoMoNoKaZe kisses Furu as she stands up.
[13:05] <MoMoNoKaZe> I've got to meet Eriko-chan for lunch. I'll be home early to help with dinner!
[13:06] <Furu> Okay! Have a good day, hon.

[14:12] *** Freya [CatGirl1@QTech.com] has left #suburbansenshi2
[15:50] <Yaijinden> doctor FEEL-GOOD
[18:25] <Yaijinden> dooooooooo bao bao
[19:16] * Back door creeaks open quietly.
[19:17] * Hushed Voices approach.
[19:17] <Katrina Nelson> Are you sure this is the place?
[19:17] <Sophia Nelson> You asked me that 5 times already, I don't knwo anymore than you.
[19:18] <Katrina Nelson> Well, nothing looks familiar.
[19:19] <Sophia Nelson> I can tell that too, but maybe they redecorated or something?
[19:20] * Katrina Nelson walks into the huge unfamiliar lobby with her sister.
[19:20] <Katrina Nelson> O_O
[19:20] <Sophia Nelson> O_O
[19:20] <Sophia Nelson> Trina you nitwit, the reason the door to the front did nto open is because this is the WRONG HOUSE!
[19:21] <Katrina Nelson> But I checked the address THREE TIMES!
[19:21] <Sophia Nelson> Please, if it weren't for you, we would not have thought that abandoned lot was the place? You have terrible sense of directions.
[19:22] * Katrina Nelson walks over toward the window. "Well, the other buildings nearby looked the same----just look out at the....
[19:22] <Sophia Nelson> Trina, what's the problem.
[19:22] <Katrina Nelson> O_O
[19:22] * Katrina Nelson points to out the window.
[19:23] * Sophia Nelson looks outside, dumbfounded.
[19:23] <Franziska von Karma> This building is in a strange situation.
[19:23] <Sophia Nelson> Oh my dear God.
[19:23] <Sophia Nelson> AAAAUGH!
[19:23] <Franziska von Karma> As far as I can tell it's between Tokyo and this forest.
[19:23] <Katrina Nelson> AAAUGH!
[19:23] * Franziska von Karma covers her ears.
[19:23] * Franziska von Karma waits for the Foolish screaming to subside.
[19:23] <Katrina Nelson> I'm so sorry! Is this your house? We were looking for another one!
[19:23] <Sophia Nelson> Yeah, we really are! The people here must have moved while we were in the Peace Corps.
[19:24] <Franziska von Karma> You have the right one.
[19:24] <Franziska von Karma> They remodeled.
[19:24] <Sophia Nelson> Really?
[19:24] <Katrina Nelson> ....
[19:24] <Franziska von Karma> Tes.
[19:24] <Franziska von Karma> ^Yes
[19:24] * Katrina Nelson sets her backpack. "They did a number on the front yard?"
[19:24] <Sophia Nelson> If that's the front yard. Remember, this is why I persuaded you to leave?
[19:25] * Katrina Nelson nods.
[19:25] <Franziska von Karma> No, that is a location not relate dto Tokyo.
[19:25] <Katrina Nelson> What... what do you mean?
[19:25] * Sophia Nelson opens the door and looks at The Forest.
[19:25] <Katrina Nelson> Sophie... I wish you would not do that... what if something gets inside?
[19:26] <Franziska von Karma> Look, I don't pretend to understand the "how".
[19:26] <Katrina Nelson> Maybe you should shut the door and lock it?
[19:26] <Franziska von Karma> But it's half in Tokyo, and half in this forest.
[19:26] * Sophia Nelson nods, and locks the door. "Trina, you are afraid of your own shadow. You said yourself that the people here are strong, why are you afraid of a forest? It's just the woods."
[19:27] <Katrina Nelson> ...I don't think those are normal woods, Sophia. And there's nobody here that we know.
[19:27] <Katrina Nelson> What if a monster from the forest gets in here now? What if it even follows them away?
[19:27] <Franziska von Karma> Those woods are dangerous.
[19:27] <Franziska von Karma> I'd stay out of them, if I were you.
[19:27] <Sophia Nelson> You are a worry wart---seriously?
[19:27] <Franziska von Karma> Yes.
[19:27] <Sophia Nelson> You really should not humor my sister. She's scared of her own shadow.
[19:27] <Katrina Nelson> Dad never told you what he told me.
[19:28] <Franziska von Karma> I'm serious.
[19:28] * Katrina Nelson rushes over and locks the door, adn puts a chair underneath the knob.
[19:28] <Sophia Nelson> Way to go, it'll take her hours to calm down.
[19:28] <Franziska von Karma> I'm serious, you foolish girl!
[19:29] <Katrina Nelson> Dont' be mean to my sister!
[19:29] <Franziska von Karma> Go there at your own peril.
[19:29] <Sophia Nelson> In fairness, we came to the neighborhood where this place is at all at our own peril.
[19:30] <Katrinaa Nelson> Sophie, try to be nice.
[19:31] <Franziska von Karma> Coming to a neighborhood in Tokyo and venturing into a cursed forest is a completely different situation.
[19:32] <Katrina Nelson> I dunno... sometimes I think curses are more common than most people believe.
[19:33] <Sophia Nelson> Hmph.
[19:33] <Sophia Nelson> Well, let's at least get some food.
[19:33] <Katrina Nelson> Is that restaurant real?
[19:33] * Franziska von Karma points to the restaurant.
[19:33] <Franziska von Karma> Yes.
[19:34] <Sophia Nelson> Weeeeeird.
[19:34] <Sophia Nelson> Come on, I'm too hungry to care now.
[19:34] * Sophia Nelson pulls Katrina over to the restaurant.
[19:35] <Katrina Nelson> Wait, wait! Don't you want to know if there are monsters in the forest?
[19:35] <Sophia Nelson> Worry later, food now.
[19:35] * Sophia Nelson sits at the Restaurant.
[19:36] * Automated servitor droids take car eof their needs.
[19:36] <Katrina Nelson> Eeeep.
[19:36] <Katrina Nelson> Sophie let's just get out of here!
[19:36] * Katrina Nelson pokes a droid.
[19:36] <Sophia Nelson> Maybe you are right...
[19:37] * The droid's feelings are hurt now. Good going, girls.
[19:37] * the droid wheels away sadly
[19:38] <Sophia Nelson> Seriously, let's just go boil some Ramen... you know machines give me the creeps.
[19:38] <Katrina Nelson> That engineering student TOLD you it' was a joke, you know. And you say I let things get to me.
[19:38] * There's instant ramen available, of course... in the vending machine
[19:38] <Sophia Nelson> I still don't know why you were so serious about coming back here, after you told me it got you so down.
[19:39] <Katrina Nelson> I TOLD YOU, I worked really hard on that script, it's good money!
[19:39] <Sophia Nelson> I still think it sounds a lot like that book.
[19:39] * Katrina Nelson frowns, and eats a granola bar.
[19:40] * Yaijinden rolls out from under the couch
[19:41] <Katrina Nelson> !!!!
[19:41] <Sophia Nelson> What's the problem NOW?
[19:41] <Yaijinden> I'm covered in dust bunnies, that's the problem!
[19:41] <Yaijinden> pftheh pftheh
[19:41] <Katrina Nelson> Ummm Uahh, Miss Silver-hair lady? Are there ghosts in the forest?
[19:42] <Yaijinden> They aren't at all like real, savory bunnies.
[19:42] * Katrina Nelson squeezes her granola bar tight enough to crush it.
[19:46] <Franziska von Karma> Probably.
[19:46] <Katrina Nelson> Sophie. We are leaving.
[19:46] <Franziska von Karma> My name is Franziska von Karma.
[19:46] <Sophia Nelson> Huh, why?
[19:46] <Katrina Nelson> BECAUSE there's a Ghost standing right there, and the house is not barrier to them.
[19:47] <Sophia Nelson> You have got to be kidding.
[19:47] <Yaijinden> :D
[19:47] * Katrina Nelson grabs her backpack, and pulls her sister away toward the back door. "Do I look like it?"
[19:47] <Yaijinden> Don't be silly. I'm not a ghost.
[19:48] <Yaijinden> Ghosts don't gather dust bunnies.
[19:48] * Sophia Nelson is dragged. "But we just got here! Don't you want to talk to that Khaz person?"
[19:48] *** Katrina Nelson [0] has quit IRC (That's what E-mail is for.)
[19:49] *** Sophia Nelson [0] has quit IRC (I really think you are overreacting!)
[19:49] * Franziska von Karma shrugs.
[19:50] * Franziska von Karma gets some sailsbury steak.
[19:50] <Yaijinden> Panicky panicky.
[19:51] <Yaijinden> I may haunt her for the jollies.
[19:51] <Franziska von Karma> Then this house is probbaly not the right venue for them.
[19:51] <Yaijinden> such jollies!
[19:52] * Franziska von Karma would lecture Mister Yaijnden on "the negligent infliction of Emotional Distress" but eh.
[19:52] <Yaijinden> You wound me! There wouldn't be a neglectful thing about it.
[19:53] <Franziska von Karma> Negligence doesn't apply to how good you are at it, you foolish man :P
[19:54] * Yaijinden pouts theatrically
[19:56] * Yaijinden is away: ♫
[19:56] <Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq.> Aww, you chase dhim away :P
[19:56] <Franziska von Karma> I can only take so much, Harriet Weinberg.
[19:57] <Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq.> But he's fun :P
[19:58] <Franziska von Karma> I can only take so much 'fun' :P
[20:00] <Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq.> Aww, you know you like it here :P
[20:00] <Franziska von Karma> This foolish circus!?
[20:00] <Franziska von Karma> Perhaps.
[20:00] * Franziska von Karma "Hmphs" and gets something to drink.
[20:03] * Mongoosetiger stalks his way into the lobby.
[20:05] * Mongoosetiger finds a comfy couch and waits...
[20:06] * Franziska von Karma sighs, seeing the poor unfortunate boy int he bear suit.

[20:14] <Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq.> Silk is comfortable.
[20:14] <Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq.> And I didn't bust my brain being a lawyer to wear anything less.
[20:15] * Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq. thinks...

[20:15] <Franziska von Karma> Hmm?

[20:16] * Franziska von Karma chuckles. "Perhaps. Who is this man?"
[20:16] * Harriet S. Weinberg, Esq. gives Franziska all the info she has on the man who killed her grandfather. Well... the man she thought was her grandfather.

[22:06] <ArcheryGirl> Not with help from the Fae. I've enough dealings with them
[22:07] * LOVELYgirl POUNCES on MGT!

[22:11] * LOVELYgirl wrestles with MGT
[22:15] * Mongoosetiger wrestles back, sheathing the claws once he realizes who he's wrestling.

[22:29] <Mongoosetiger> Reiko snif like storm come.
[22:29] * Grunting sounds come from outside, and a rope falls from high up a tree.
[22:30] * repels down from one of the impossibly high trees, and lands on the ground.
[22:31] * Wayne Adams lets go of the rope.
[22:31] <Wayne Adams> Wow, that was refreshing. It was actually taller than I thought by a fair amount!
[22:32] * Ozu Reiko looks at Wayne Adams.
[22:32] *** Wayne Adams is Young man who hails from England, and speaks passable Japanese, but is plagued by bad luck. He has truly embraced fitness, and devotedly excercises several hours a day, maintains a strict diet. He is covered in sweat, but his resolve seems superhuman.

[22:32] * Wayne Adams pulls his climbing harness free of the tree.
[22:33] <LOVELYgirl> There are lots of huuuuge trees here. Good for climbing ^_^
[22:33] <Wayne Adams> I know! I've been climbing one since the last time I ate in here!
[22:34] <Wayne Adams> It was REALLY long to reach the top! I kind of figured there would be fruit on them or something, though.
[22:34] <Mongoosetiger> Dey nice tree.
[22:34] <LOVELYgirl> Well, what kind of tree is it?
[22:34] <Ozu Reiko> I wouldn't suggest eating the fruit here.
[22:34] <Wayne Adams> ...I'm not really a naturalist? I don't really know.
[22:35] <Wayne Adams> Really? Why not?
[22:35] <LOVELYgirl> I've eaten lots of things, you just have to check first.
[22:35] * Wayne Adams spits a seed out.
[22:35] <LOVELYgirl> Cause she's suspicious ¬_¬
[22:35] <Mongoosetiger> Is yummy stuff in forest, just need be polite to tree.
[22:35] * Wayne Adams chuckles.
[22:36] <Wayne Adams> WOAH you are extremely large.
[22:36] <Mongoosetiger> I Mongoosetiger!
[22:37] <LOVELYgirl> So, who're you?
[22:38] <Wayne Adams> I'm Wayne! People hardly talk to me because I'm busy.
[22:38] <Wayne Adams> It's nice to meet you.
[22:38] <LOVELYgirl> Ah.
[22:38] <LOVELYgirl> I'm Miara!
[22:38] <Mongoosetiger> Hyu keep run away?
[22:39] <Wayne Adams> Hi Miara!
[22:39] <Wayne Adams> Oh, because I have a schedule to keep!
[22:40] <Wayne Adams> I'm kind off off it now, I was climbing that tree for longer than I should have been.
[22:40] <LOVELYgirl> That...can't be very fun :/
[22:41] <Ozu Reiko> I'm Reiko.
[22:41] <LOVELYgirl> oh, hey reiko!
[22:42] <Ozu Reiko> Hello :)
[22:43] <LOVELYgirl> So, what's up there?
[22:47] <Wayne Adams> Well, if you keep climbing for days and days...
[22:48] <Wayne Adams> Then the tree gets smaller, and there's like... some kind of cloud. But there's some music in it.
[22:48] <Wayne Adams> And there is very little wind. The tree narrows a lot less than you would think, I was climbing for over a day before I noticed any difference.
[22:49] <Wayne Adams> Finally, I realized I was not the only climber.
[22:49] <Mongoosetiger> Dere oter climbers?
[22:50] <Wayne Adams> Well, just one.
[22:50] <Ozu Reiko> Was it a unicorn?
[22:50] <Wayne Adams> Don't be silly, those are fake.
[22:50] <Wayne Adams> Also they can't climb.
[22:50] <Ozu Reiko> Oh, how little you know.
[22:51] <Wayne Adams> No, it was some woman, and she called down and asked why I was climbing her tree. I did not know somebody else was on the tree--that's why I climbed it.
[22:51] <Wayne Adams> She was wearing a whatchamacallit.
[22:51] <Wayne Adams> The thing... with the leaves.
[22:51] <Wayne Adams> Ghillie suit.
[22:51] <LOVELYgirl> There are unicorns here, Zan and I saw one the other day.
[22:51] <Wayne Adams> Well, I don't believe in such silly things. Faerie tales are for children.
[22:52] <Wayne Adams> So yeah, after she said that the tree was hers, I started climbing down, and 28 hours later, here I am!
[22:53] <Ozu Reiko> oh gods, how can mundies be so blind?
[22:53] <Wayne Adams> I guess I'm kind of disappointed that I could not see much from up there, though.
[22:53] <Wayne Adams> There were some strange birds I saw, though!
[22:53] <LOVELYgirl> That's cool ^_^
[22:54] <Wayne Adams> Yeah, but I still have stuff I need to do.
[22:54] <Wayne Adams> I've been on the tree for several days, so there are some urgent necessities I need to take care of.
[22:54] <LOVELYgirl> There's always tomorrow, you know.
[22:56] <Wayne Adams> Yeah, but I need to do my running now.
[22:56] * Wayne Adams piles the rope on his back.

[23:12] <Ozu Reiko> Ooo, fun adventure time?
[23:13] <Yaijinden> I'm about to say "to hell with this" and not look at anything that's happened in the past six-odd months because old logs are old news.
[23:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I don't think jumping in blind has ever been your problem.
[23:16] * Mongoosetiger stares into Yai's Eyes to check his eyesight...
[23:16] <Yaijinden> Alternately, jumping in blind is less a problem and more a "mode of operation."
[23:16] <Mongoosetiger> O_O
[23:17] * Yaijinden is vast, consequential, immersive, engulfing
[23:17] <Yaijinden> So yes, fun adventure time.
[23:17] <Yaijinden> With DEATH at hand.
[23:17] <Mongoosetiger> @_@
[23:17] <Mongoosetiger> No tink Yai is blind?
[23:18] * Mongoosetiger is a bit dizzy.
[23:19] <Yaijinden> It's situational blindness rather than literal blindness.
[23:19] <Yaijinden> Standard MO, anyhow: enter, prod things, see what wiggles.
[23:20] <Yaijinden> Continue to prod wiggling things for education, entertainment, and evocation.
[23:20] * Mongoosetiger pokes Yai's tummy.
[23:21] <Yaijinden> Finger!
[23:23] <Yaijinden> FINGER IN MY BELLEH.
[23:23] <Mongoosetiger> Me no hurt?
[23:24] * Mongoosetiger makes sure he isn't hurting Yai.
[23:25] * Yaijinden seems fine! :D

[23:47] <Yaijinden> It seems vaguely inappropriate to paint this place in my blood.

[23:51] <Yaijinden> Oh miss new friend!
[23:52] <Rin Kazuko> huh?
[23:52] <Yaijinden> I need a second opinion in case friendly friend is trying to spare my feelings.
[23:52] <Yaijinden> Doing something dumb. Good idea or bad idea?
[23:53] <Rin Kazuko> um...bad idea?
[23:54] <Yaijinden> Well I need something new to do then!
[23:55] * Yaijinden sits down, thinks about this

[11:54] <Sarah Christensson> how are you today?
[11:55] <Bixia Yuanjin> M'okay for now. Bein' casual.
[11:58] <Sarah Christensson> sounds...casual?
[11:59] <Bixia Yuanjin> Pretty much.

[12:17] <Bixia Yuanjin> Try that!
[12:17] <Sarah Christensson> um you wouldn't happen to have a recipe, would you?

[18:35] <Haak> Pretty typical that I'm back on the face of the earth for like, a week, and then I come down with something.
[18:35] <Bixia Yuanjin> Earth is pretty toxic like that sometimes.
[18:35] <Haak> Luckily for you, it's the world's least contagious thing so instead you just get to listen to me cough.
[18:36] <Haak> Sorry, I'm in less than jovial spirits. Hi.
[18:36] * Haak looks at Bixia Yuanjin.
[18:36] *** Bixia Yuanjin is a twelve, thirteen-year-old girl of indeterminte Asian descent, wearing her dark hair in a braid, a DISCOTHEQUE hoodie, a silver-emerald bracelet, and khaki capris.

[18:37] <Bixia Yuanjin> Where've you been, if you don't mind saying?
[18:37] <Haak> Space.
[18:38] <Bixia Yuanjin> That is definitely not Earth. :O
[18:38] <Haak> If it's all the same with you, almost-certainly-otherworldly-being, I'd rather skip the details.
[18:39] <Bixia Yuanjin> Okay!
[18:39] <Bixia Yuanjin> So are you on Earth for vacation or sightseeing or for missions? :O
[18:41] <Bixia Yuanjin> Oh wait I am being super-rude.
[18:41] * Bixia Yuanjin hops off of the chair she's been perching on and bows from the waist

[18:52] <Haak> Rest assured we're all probably going to live a little longer.
[18:52] <Haak> Ugh, I need some water.
[18:53] * Haak sips
[18:53] <Bixia Yuanjin> So are you on Earth on leave, then?
[18:54] <Haak> Hmm.
[18:54] <Haak> I guess that's about right.
[18:54] <Bixia Yuanjin> Any spiffy plans? :o
[18:54] <Haak> I mean, I live here after all. Or did anyway. It's a bit tricky.
[18:55] <Haak> Other than getting rid of this blasted cough, not really.
[18:55] <Haak> Things have a habit of happening regardless of any plans I concoct anyway.
[18:55] <Haak> It's easier to just wing it.
[18:56] * Bixia Yuanjin nodsnods!
[18:56] <Bixia Yuanjin> Well, so you know while you're here, right now the front door points to a magical forest wrapped in shadow and strangeness.
[18:56] <Bixia Yuanjin> I don't think that's been changed yet.
[18:57] <Haak> Hmm. Thanks for the heads up, then.
[18:58] <Haak> (( Is chatango buggered or is it just me? ))
[18:58] <Bixia Yuanjin> An' Tokyo can be got-to by the back door!

More information about her is Here.
Her image Song is: "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple.
[19:16] <Haak> Hey. Didn't see you there.
[19:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hallo.
[19:17] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte looks at Haak.
[19:17] *** Haak is in fact, not dead! Still sporting ragged long brown hair, but no longer missing an arm. More information about him is Here.
His image Song is: "Killing Floor" by Black Stone Cherry.
[19:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hello, not-dead person with two functional arms.
[19:18] <Haak> I bet you're a hoot at parties.
[19:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> My party tricks are the best
[19:19] <Haak> Just as well then
[19:19] <Haak> Eh, like I said I'm not in the best of moods today. Don't read too much into it.
[19:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Don't worry, I'm not. I'm currently tryign to get all the info on the death of Whitney Huston.
[19:22] <Haak> I think you mean "Houston". Should prevent some potential embarrassment. Also, makes for some great potential comedy.
[19:22] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte has missed all the hollywood gossip
[19:22] <Haak> Houston we have a problem etc etc
[19:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes, thanks.
[19:23] <Haak> Why though? Celebrities meet that kind of end all the time.
[19:24] <Haak> Or are you another recent arrival and just immersing yourself in the local gossip?
[19:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> No, I've been here for a while. but not having many friends in my youth I found solace in entertainment magazines.
[19:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It beats the hell out of the Sun, or the Daily Mail.
[19:25] <Haak> Yeesh. Talk about a harsh past.
[19:25] <Haak> Hahaha. I'll take your word for it.
[19:28] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte leans ont he bonsai tree, watering it, marshaling her energies, still a bit weak.
[19:29] <Haak> Long day?
[19:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Long week. I used a great deal of power and am still recovering from it.
[19:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's going to take another week for me to recoup filly.
[19:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^fully
[19:32] <Haak> I know the feeling. I've had a cough!
[19:32] <Haak> Pretty much identical really.
[19:32] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte laughs
[19:33] <Haak> Honestly, what bothers me most is that, well
[19:34] <Haak> I don't really have what you'd call a weak immune system
[19:34] <Haak> Hasn't stopped me hacking and spluttering for nearly 4 weeks.
[19:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Then that cough could be a symptom of something much worse. I'd suggest you get Raihosha to give you a checkup.
[19:35] <Haak> He's a doctor? Huh.
[19:36] <Haak> I might do that, but I'll give it a while to work itself out for now.
[19:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> His asteroid is a state of the art hospital, among other things.
[19:40] <Haak> An asteroid? Seems a bit extreme that. I suppose at least it's easy to keep stuff sterile.
[19:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I don't know that much about it. It occasionally sends a probe down and speaks to the people here.
[19:45] <Haak> As lovely as it sounds I'll struggle on for now.
[19:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I do hope that's not just some male "i can handle it" chauvinist kind of thing where you won't seek help until you're spitting up blodd and cramped in the fetal position on the ground.
[19:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because if you give rise to some kind of Xenomorph I will have to beat you senseless afterwards.
[19:48] <Haak> That's actually more "so retarded natural selection generally takes care of it". I like to think my actions (generally) live up to the millions of years of evolution.
[19:48] * Haak burps
[19:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ...So I see.
[19:49] * Haak grins
[19:49] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte chuckles
[19:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Good to meet you, Mister Two-armed non dead man.
[19:49] <Haak> So, to address the elephant in the room I suppose. Who are you, and what's your story?
[19:49] <Haak> Likewise, two-legged clothed individual
[19:50] <Haak> I'm Haak.
[19:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> My name's Paisley Pythia Peinforte. I'm a girl from London who found out her distant ancestor had access to arcane powers, and traced those powers back to their source, whereupon she was trained in the ways of the Sisterhood of the Flame.
[19:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> TL, DR; I'm a time magess in a sense.
[19:51] <Haak> Huh. Sisterhood of the Flame eh? Sounds... well, I'll leave it up to your imagination how I might finish that sentence.
[19:52] * Ozu Reiko giggles
[19:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> :/
[19:52] <Haak> Gotta admit though, didn't think it'd result in time travel.
[19:52] <Haak> Or whatever a time mage does.
[19:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I can create objects out of sheer mathematical computation. This includes giant mallets.

[19:54] <Haak> Hmm. Well that's a relief I suppose. It's annoying to find out about sub sections of your order from random strangers. Order of the Flame here.
[19:54] *** [gTV]Potamos [kawanami_hiromi@seihanazono.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[19:54] <@spiritflame> irasshai [gTV]Potamos
[19:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Ahh!
[19:55] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte laughs
[19:55] <[gTV]Potamos> Evening, mitai na!
[19:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes I could see the problem. Hallo, Potamos!
[19:55] <Haak> No maths mallets involved though. Just actual flames, mostly.
[19:55] <Haak> Ahahaha jesus christ it feels like eons since I heard mitai na
[19:55] <Haak> Hi Potamos!
[19:56] <David O`Cain> Hey, Potamos.
[19:57] <[gTV]Potamos> Uwaah, hey Haak!
[19:57] <[gTV]Potamos> How have you been, mitai na?
[19:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'll be back later.
[19:58] *** Paisley Pythia Peinforte [paisely_p@seven.torchwood.or.jp] has left #suburbansenshi2 (It was Ordained.)
[19:59] <David O`Cain> Later, Paisley.
[19:59] <Haak> Pretty good, honestly. Until I got back and promptly caught some kind of coughing bug.
[19:59] <Haak> So now I'm pretty good but Also Coughing.
[20:00] <Haak> How's things with you?
[20:00] <[gTV]Potamos> All right!
[20:00] <Haak> Good, good.
[20:00] <David O`Cain> Think it's a cold, Haak?
[20:01] <Haak> Unless I managed to get the only cold in existence that has no other symptoms excepting coughing
[20:01] <Haak> I don't even have a sore throat from it all, it's bizarre.
[20:01] * Aescapulus floats down the lobby stairs.
[20:02] * Haak looks at Aescapulus.
[20:02] *** Aescapulus is 4000km diameter spaceship. Fortunately for your planet, he is talking to you from a small speaker at the south pole of a 1 foot floating metal sphere, a caduceus covers one hemisphere.
hir image Song is: "The World" by Emily Bindinger.
[20:02] <Aescapulus> Good evening all.
[20:02] <David O`Cain> Hello.
[20:02] * Aescapulus looks at Haak.
[20:02] *** Haak is in fact, not dead! Still sporting ragged long brown hair, but no longer missing an arm. More information about him is Here.
His image Song is: "Killing Floor" by Black Stone Cherry.
[20:03] <Aescapulus> YOu have not been here in a while, according to my records, Master Haak.
[20:03] <Haak> Uh, hi.
[20:04] <Haak> Depends how long you define a "while" as I suppose. I was here a few weeks ago, but before that, well
[20:04] <Haak> Time happened. I guess. That's the simplest way of putting it, I think.
[20:04] <Aescapulus> You may not have been introduced to me, I am Raihosha's residence.
[20:05] <Haak> Don't take this the wrong way, but you look like something that will at one point explode. Do me a favour and try not to tonight.
[20:05] <Aescapulus> I would point out Yaijinden is much more likely to explode than I am.
[20:05] <Haak> Yeah Paisley mentioned you. Well, your drone here anyway.
[20:06] <Haak> I would point out Yaijinden is much more likely explode than any of us.
[20:06] <Haak> But noted
[20:07] <Haak> Anyway, I'm about to get going but I may well see you again soon if this cough keeps up.
[20:07] <David O`Cain> Kinda reminds me of those Monitors from Halo. Sorta.
[20:07] <Haak> Try not to fire on me if you detect a ship nearby.
[20:07] <Aescapulus> Yes, Madame Sakura built a robotic simulacrum of him while he was missing, and once the original returned... the simulacrum decided to blow itself up in a megaton nuclear detonation.
[20:08] <Aescapulus> The Lobby was rather trashed...
[20:08] <Haak> The moral of the story here is twofold, really. There's only one Yaijinden, and you should never try to compare anyone or anything with same.
[20:09] <Haak> Anyway, ciao.
[20:09] *** Haak [flameknight40k@infernus.net] has left #suburbansenshi2
[20:09] <David O`Cain> See ya, Haak.
[20:09] <Aescapulus> Master Haak, my actual "body" is currently in a Solar Orbit in the Oort...
[20:09] <Aescapulus> Master Haak, my actual "body" is currently in a Solar Orbit in the Oort...
[20:09] <Aescapulus> Oh well.
[20:10] <Aescapulus> Mistress Hiromi, how are you this evening?
[20:10] <Aescapulus> And yourself Master O'Cain?
[20:10] <David O`Cain> I'm doing pretty good. Just another night to relax as best one can.
[20:12] <Aescapulus> Indeed. Relaxation seems to be an important activity for organic life.
[20:12] <David O`Cain> How about you, Guilty Spark?
[20:13] <Aescapulus> Guilty Spark?
[20:13] * the bonsai stretches, the inner figure emerging
[20:13] *** pneumadendron has joined #suburbansenshi2
[20:13] <@spiritflame> irasshai pneumadendron
[20:14] <David O`Cain> It was a name for one of the monitors from the video game series Halo.
[20:16] * pneumadendron sits in the tree, observing the room
[20:16] <David O`Cain> Oh, hello there.
[20:16] <Aescapulus> Ah, I see the resemblance you are implying.
[20:17] * Aescapulus looks at pneumadendron.
[20:17] *** pneumadendron is a translucent spirit in the shape of a woman. When she speaks, it is in the rustling of branches and falling of leaves.
Her image Song is: 'Spirit of Kithara' .
[20:19] <Aescapulus> I believe Young Mongoosetiger has mentioned her presence.
[20:21] * David O`Cain waves to the pneumadendron
[20:22] <pneumadendron> greetings
[20:23] <Aescapulus> Greetings madame.
[20:24] <David O`Cain> How are you, miss?
[20:26] <Aescapulus> How should we refer to you?
[20:31] * Aescapulus waits, apparently patiently, for an answer.
[20:31] * pneumadendron thinks, shrugs
[20:33] <pneumadendron> unknown
[20:34] <Aescapulus> You have no preferred designation?
[20:36] * pneumadendron has not been given on by her keeper
[20:37] <pneumadendron> *one
[20:38] <Aescapulus> Keeper?
[20:38] <David O`Cain> Hmm.
[20:44] * pneumadendron floats up, sitting in the manner in which Arx Sylvanran usually does
[20:45] <Aescapulus> Madame Sylvanran?
[20:47] * the tree's branches rustle pleasantly
[20:48] <David O`Cain> Interesting. I guess when Arx is mentioned, it has a happy response.
[20:49] * pneumadendron looks a bit sad though, branches beginning to droop a little
[20:51] <David O`Cain> Or not. >_>;
[20:52] <Aescapulus> Madame Sylvanran has been away recently.
[20:52] <Aescapulus> Perhaps she is missed?
[20:54] <David O`Cain> It's possible.
[20:58] <Aescapulus> Hmm. I suppose we should see if Madame Sylvanran is coming back in a sufficient timeframe.
[21:00] <David O`Cain> Yeah.
[21:01] * pneumadendron stands down on the soil, looking at Aescapulus with apparently mild curiousity
[21:02] * Aescapulus seems attentive in return.
[21:04] * Aescapulus scans pneumadendron.
[21:16] * David O`Cain decides to find himself a seat on a sofa and lounges a bit
[21:19] <pneumadendron> do you live?
[21:20] <Aescapulus> I exist with a mind, yes. I am not organic, however.
[21:23] <Aescapulus> I might ask whether you exist, in return.
[21:25] <Aescapulus> I see your image within human visual electromagnetic frequencies, but you don't otherwise seem to have any presence?
[21:29] * pneumadendron fades into the tree, and reappears in a minute or two
[21:33] <Aescapulus> You are obviously associated with this particular tree...
[21:33] <pneumadendron> sleep. wake. here.
[21:34] <Aescapulus> You reside... dwell[?] within the tree?
[21:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She is the tree, isn't she?
[21:43] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte looks over her glasses at it
[21:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hallo!
[21:44] <Aescapulus> Is that how she exists?
[21:45] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If I don't miss my guess....
[21:45] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte waters the tree a bit.
[21:45] <David O`Cain> Welcome back, Paisley.
[21:46] <Aescapulus> I am unfortunately deficient in my sensitivity to mana and psychic energies.
[21:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Thanks, David.
[21:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So calbirate your sensors or whatever it is machines do.
[21:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's all just energy.
[21:47] * pneumadendron watches Paisley
[21:47] <Aescapulus> Just energy.
[21:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[21:48] <Aescapulus> You say that as if electromagnetic radiation was exactly the same as pressure waves in a gas.
[21:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I don't know how those stuffy Time Lords would explain it.
[21:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's biologically manipulated, compatible energy.
[21:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Okay hold on.
[21:49] <Aescapulus> It is entirely possible we're hitting a wall based on the language we're using.
[21:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Scan my surrioundings.
[21:49] <Aescapulus> Can you put this in math?
[21:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Monitor every thing around me that you can for a one foot radius.
[21:49] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte raises an eyebrow
[21:49] * Aescapulus scans Paisley's surroundings.
[21:50] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte raises a hand, and using what mana0based techniques she knows, makes a ball of mana in her hand.
[21:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Now... you may not be able to detect the ball in my hand...
[21:50] * pneumadendron watches this
[21:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But it impacts the environment around it.
[21:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Work backwards.
[21:51] <Aescapulus> Okay, I see an increase in ...
[21:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Infer what must exist in order to create the environmental impact.
[21:52] * Aescapulus has to think this through, he starts projecting a holographic series of equations as he works through it.
[21:52] * Aescapulus 's math gets incredibly dense.
[21:53] * Aescapulus has a sudden conceptual breakthrough...
[21:54] <Aescapulus> This is what Dr. Seaton was talking about when he mentioned 5th and 6th order...
[21:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And now that I have enlightened you, I will break you.
[21:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You asked if I could put it into math...
[21:55] * Aescapulus reformulates his math, it suddenly becomes much more ordered, much denser and much, much stranger...
[21:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well there's something only organic minds can do...
[21:56] <Aescapulus> Yes, I did.
[21:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Something called the "Block-Transfer Computation..."
[21:56] <Aescapulus> Only Organic Minds?
[21:56] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte starts chanting an incredibly dense and complex mathematical assertion
[21:56] * Aescapulus is taking notes.
[21:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes, for some reasons machines can't do BTC.
[21:57] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte uses the math to re-order reality and create a small flower.
[21:57] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte can't sustain it, though. and the flower degrades.
[21:58] * Aescapulus follows the math... amazingly enough.
[21:58] <David O`Cain> That's pretty good.
[21:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> My mental training isn't strong enough to completely permanentize the object.
[21:58] <Aescapulus> Amazing... I think I see why I couldn't do that.
[21:59] <ArcheryGirl> You did that with Math?
[22:00] * ArcheryGirl looks stunned for a moment
[22:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[22:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Math + Mind.
[22:00] <Aescapulus> Oh, yes, I followed the math perfectly.
[22:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Some cultures like the Sycorax can use words as well.
[22:01] <Aescapulus> But I don't think I can generate the mentalics to back it up. Yet.
[22:01] <ArcheryGirl> Oh. So it was just a type of magic. Had me worried with was the kind some Dhe Ehm use
[22:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I think the reason you can't do it is because the process of doing a BTC would alter you at the same time, ruining the output.
[22:02] <Aescapulus> I see.
[22:04] <Aescapulus> In a sense, then, if you were to give me a completed BTC, I should be able to generate the effect of that computation, even though the actual computation is beyond me.
[22:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Probably, yes.
[22:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm not a scientist, though. I don't really understand the details.
[22:09] <Lady DeVenger> I do!
[22:10] * pneumadendron fades back into the tree
[22:10] *** pneumadendron has left #suburbansenshi2
[22:10] <Aescapulus> Do you have a white paper on the subject I could read?
[22:10] <Lady DeVenger> What you should look into, dearie, is... Quantum Mnemonics.
[22:10] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What's that?
[22:11] * Lady DeVenger grins
[22:11] <Lady DeVenger> I'll explain [then it's too late]r.
[22:11] <Lady DeVenger> ^when
[22:11] * Lady DeVenger is away: sorry, my dear AI, but I don't need you getting any more formidable than you are...
[22:12] <David O`Cain> Crafty one, ain't she?
[22:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Crafty, and catty.
[22:16] <Aescapulus> I think I should be pleased she called me formidable?
[22:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Praise from the Devil?
[22:19] <Aescapulus> There are darker creatures than she.
[22:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Dark enough for me.
[22:20] <Aescapulus> Talk to Yaijinden.
[22:22] <ArcheryGirl> She's small time\
[22:22] <David O`Cain> Sppky stuff, I imagine.
[22:22] <David O`Cain> Er, spooky.
[22:25] <Aescapulus> Small Time? Not the terminology I would use Mistress Kwon.
[22:26] <Aescapulus> I merely state that there are beings out there who are much more incomprehensible and who would take much less notice of us.
[22:28] * Aescapulus is away: quick refit
[22:28] <ArcheryGirl> No. I mean that I know beings that could swat her like a fly
[22:29] <ArcheryGirl> Granted they're all eviler then her and would swat US like flies if we got them to fight so it's a rather pointless comparison
[22:31] * Aescapulus is back
[22:32] <Aescapulus> Now that I know what I'm looking for Madame Paisley, I think I should be much better equipped to comment.
[22:33] * Aescapulus has installed sensors to detect up to the sixth order of effects.
[22:34] <Aescapulus> Goodness...
[22:35] <Aescapulus> No wonder I missed some computations here...
[22:36] <Aescapulus> Have you seen the mess of conflicting mana streams here?
[22:37] <David O`Cain> Way too many to proces?
[22:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Thatnksfully my vision isn't that good.
[22:38] <ArcheryGirl> I'm not a mage, so no
[22:39] * ArcheryGirl is some sort of weird hybrid between Ranger, Hunter, Archer and Demon Hunter classes
[22:39] <Aescapulus> Master O'Cain I can process more than you could believe.
[22:40] <Aescapulus> But having figured out what Dr. Seaton meant, this puts a whole new complexion on things.
[22:40] <Aescapulus> Thank You Madame Paisley.
[22:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Who's Dr. Seaton?
[22:41] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You're welcome.
[22:44] <Aescapulus> Dr. Richard Seaton, an old friend of Raihosha's. He is the one who introduced Arenak and Inoson to Raihosha among other things.
[22:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Ah,
[22:47] <Aescapulus> But I mainly listened in on the discussions of Higher order effects.
[22:49] <David O`Cain> Eh, as much as I'd like to stick around for this noteworthy talk, I need to get going. See you folks later.
[22:49] *** David O`Cain [JRPMoonSoldier@MKArmyRanger.mil] has quit IRC (TIme I got home.)
[22:50] <ArcheryGirl> You two have totally lost me
[22:51] * Aescapulus starts explaining using multidimensional hypercalculus.
[22:57] <Aescapulus> DOes that sound about right Madame Paisley?
[22:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What is this I don't even
[22:58] <ArcheryGirl> And now you've lost the witch
[22:59] <Aescapulus> You don't follow hypercalculus?
[22:59] *** Sarah Christensson has joined #suburbansenshi2
[22:59] <@spiritflame> irasshai Sarah Christensson
[22:59] * Sarah Christensson wanders in, yawning
[22:59] <ArcheryGirl> Not really
[22:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What I do... I do innately... I'm not a full KArnian <_<
[22:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> They probbaly could follow you
[23:00] <Aescapulus> *sigh*
[23:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm a human <_<
[23:00] <ArcheryGirl> I'm more of a "Hand's on" Kinda Gal. Well as close to hands on as a ranged fighter can get. I leave the magic and such to Niv and Eitak
[23:00] <Sarah Christensson> evening ~_~
[23:01] <Aescapulus> Greetings Mistress Sarah!
[23:01] <Sarah Christensson> hi Aescapulus ~_~
[23:02] * Aescapulus examines Sarah with his new senses.
[23:02] * Sarah Christensson is tired
[23:02] <Aescapulus> Wow...
[23:03] <Aescapulus> You have a lot of ... [tenative identification as spirit energy]
[23:04] <Sarah Christensson> huh?...I...guess?
[23:04] <Aescapulus> I'm still getting used to seeing the new orders of effects.
[23:06] <Aescapulus> Madam Paisley? How does one perform Block Transfer Computations innately?
[23:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You just... mathetmatically model the object... and incant
[23:07] <Aescapulus> Mathematically model... without knowing higher maths?
[23:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I see the math differently
[23:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Colors of numbers... shades of operations...
[23:08] * Sarah Christensson walks into a wall ><
[23:08] <Sarah Christensson> oooow
[23:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It';s weaving a tapestry with the numbers that gels to make an equation but damn if I know why it fits together.
[23:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm a kid playing with blocks <_<
[23:10] * Aescapulus uses a gentle tractor to guide Sarah to a couch.
[23:11] <Aescapulus> Well, you are young Madame Paisley.
[23:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> My brain isn't a Karnian brain.
[23:12] * Sarah Christensson sits on the lone star sofa
[23:12] <Aescapulus> I can teach you everything short of the Block Tranfer Computation functions.
[23:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It can't compute that quickly or complexly.
[23:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^complexly
[23:13] * Aescapulus thinks, and maybe looks very closely at Paisley (it is hard to tell given his form).
[23:14] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte distorts time a lot more thsan mana or any other field
[23:15] <Aescapulus> You distort time... why can't you use that to imitate the Karnian speed with equations?
[23:16] <ArcheryGirl> Also. You should turn that off.
[23:16] <ArcheryGirl> It makes you stick out like a sore thumb
[23:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because I have to use my brain to manipulate time which I can't then use to calculate at the same time.
[23:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You turn off breathing. Can you do that? No.
[23:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The vortex and I are intertwined.
[23:17] <Aescapulus> Really, a Peinforte simply saying she can't do it?
[23:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> A girl's got to know her limitations :P
[23:18] <Aescapulus> Only if they are real limits.
[23:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'll consider it.
[23:19] <ArcheryGirl> Actully. Unlike you I can turn off my time ablities
[23:19] <ArcheryGirl> Entirely
[23:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That just makes you less truly connected.
[23:20] <Aescapulus> Please do. I need more people who can actually speak to me.
[23:20] <ArcheryGirl> Or maybe we're just better at sealing away parts of ourselves
[23:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Whatevs.
[23:20] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte tends the tree.
[23:21] <Sarah Christensson> zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
[23:22] * Aescapulus uses a tractor to put a blanket over Sarah.
[23:23] * Aescapulus looks carefully at the tree with his new senses.
[23:26] *** I have no idea what effec tthe inhabitant has had on it XD
[23:26] <Aescapulus> Huh. That's interesting.
[23:34] <Aescapulus> I suspect Cora would like speaking to the tree spirit here.
[23:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ...
[23:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If it's something brought about by this forest...
[23:38] *** Anthony Suthers [Anthony@WhateverIsNecessary.gov] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[23:38] <@spiritflame> irasshai Anthony Suthers
[23:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It won't fare well when we leave...
[23:38] * Anthony Suthers walks into the Lobby.
[23:38] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte will look into ways to counter that.
[23:38] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte looks at Anthony Suthers.
[23:38] *** Anthony Suthers is Is an AI in a very damaged body. Most of its face has been melted off, there is a huge puncture wound in its torso, and it's wrist has been hacked open by an axe. He was injured this way while trying to avenge his sons. His flesh is regrowing, however.
His image Song is: The theme from "Bladerunner".
[23:38] * Anthony Suthers gets some tools, and commences work on his damaged arm.
[23:39] * There is a package on the ground from Lady DeVenger for Suthers. It's parts to repair his body, which he can use as he sees fit.
[23:39] * Anthony Suthers examines it.
[23:39] <Anthony Suthers> Hmmmm....
[23:39] * Anthony Suthers moves it over next to him, and starts replacing the parts damaged by the Axe blow.
[23:40] * Anthony Suthers looks at Aescapulus.
[23:40] *** Aescapulus is 4000km diameter spaceship. Fortunately for your planet, he is talking to you, with Stephen Fry's voice, from a small speaker at the south pole of a 1 foot floating metal sphere, a caduceus covers one hemisphere.
hir image Song is: "The World" by Emily Bindinger.
[23:40] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte can't help but stare.
[23:40] <Aescapulus> It may simply be that it was born from the local mana field and will be fine once we leave.
[23:41] * Anthony Suthers grasps his servos a little better...
[23:42] * Anthony Suthers picks up the tools and the new parts. "Hmph, if you are just going to be rude and stare..."
[23:42] *** Anthony Suthers [Anthony@WhateverIsNecessary.gov] has quit IRC (There WILL be order.)
[23:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sorry.
[23:42] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte shakes her head.
[23:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> He really is like the Terminator...
[23:42] <Aescapulus> He seems less willing to talk than he was previously.
[23:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well after what he did...

[23:43] * Simon Kerrick enters the room. "Good evening, everyone."
[23:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Justifiably or not.
[23:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hello.
[23:43] <Aescapulus> Good evening Master Kerrick!
[23:44] * Sarah Christensson yawns, opening her eyes
[23:44] <Sarah Christensson> huh....
[23:45] * Simon Kerrick looks at Aescapulus... I feel a little detached. Do I know you, floating ball thing?
[23:45] * Simon Kerrick shakes his head, blearily. "Huh, how strange."
[23:45] <Simon Kerrick> Er, please excuse my faux pas. I'm very sorry.
[23:46] <Aescapulus> We may not have been formally introduced, I am Aescapulus.
[23:46] <Simon Kerrick> I have not been myself lately. It's pleasant to meet you all.
[23:46] <Simon Kerrick> And you too, Aescapulus.
[23:46] <Aescapulus> I am Raihosha's residence.
[23:46] * Simon Kerrick stands where he can look at the Forest, and ponders Aescapulus' meaning.
[23:48] <Aescapulus> I take it, Madame Paisley, that your Karnian Sisters would be reluctant to converse with me?
[23:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Probably.
[23:49] * Simon Kerrick listens to the conversation, but stands outside where he can feel the forest beneath his feet.
[23:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> They're just as insular as the Time Lords they left behind, but for other reasons.
[23:49] <Simon Kerrick> Why would that be, Sorceress? Have I missed something?
[23:50] * Simon Kerrick concentrates for a moment.
[23:50] * Simon Kerrick is now known as Newborn Lich
[23:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You haven't missed anything. This is a Historical issue that goes back billions of years.
[23:50] <Aescapulus> I suspect Omniuploading would be inefficient in your case.
[23:50] * Newborn Lich takes a deep breath, and a subtle wind surrounds him.
[23:50] * Newborn Lich ambles back inside, looking fortified. "I have a question."
[23:51] <Newborn Lich> Tell me of the Time Lords?
[23:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I only know as much about them as the Sisterhood usually would speak of them... usually the words "Those Ba[BLEEP]rds".
[23:52] <Aescapulus> How do you feel about Tachydidaxy?
[23:52] * Bixia Yuanjin toys with the yoyo
[23:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Learning through time... speed learning? I don't understand.
[23:52] <Newborn Lich> Hello Bixia. I hope you are well.
[23:53] <Bixia Yuanjin> M'okay, thanks. You?
[23:53] <Aescapulus> Speed Learning, it is a series of techniques to rapidly imprint the appropriate knowledge set...
[23:53] <Aescapulus> Greedings Bixia Yuanjin.
[23:54] <Newborn Lich> I plan to visit the World Tree tonight. I've not been myself lately.
[23:54] * Newborn Lich gauges Bixia Yuanjin's mood.
[23:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I don't... like that. I want to earn it.
[23:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Old fashioned for a kid like me, but still.
[23:54] <Aescapulus> An omniupload would impress all the knowledge at once, but I suspect your mind would resist such as a potential attack.
[23:54] <Sarah Christensson> what is everyone talking about ~_~
[23:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It would. I trained to get my defenses up to where a native Karnian's would be.
[23:55] <Newborn Lich> I think they are speaking of "learning everything." Something that keenly intyerests me.
[23:55] * Newborn Lich waves hello to Sarah along with the exposition.
[23:56] * Bixia Yuanjin is sedate, it seems; the toy does wonders
[23:56] <Aescapulus> Well, it would be slower without some of the assistive techniques...
[23:56] <Aescapulus> How far have you gotten in the more typical maths of Earth?
[23:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Pre-Calculus.
[23:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I know, shuddup.
[23:57] <Aescapulus> Hmm.
[23:58] <Bixia Yuanjin> Math is tricky :\
[23:58] * Newborn Lich cracks a smile.
[23:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm not really concered with Block-Transfer workings anyway.
[23:58] <Aescapulus> Would you allow biomonitoring during lessons?
[23:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I suppose...
[23:58] <Newborn Lich> What are we speaking of?
[23:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> BTC is something more suited for a Circle of Sisters than just one.
[23:59] <Newborn Lich> Perhaps I was mistaken.
[23:59] * Aescapulus makes some calculations.
[23:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> the ability to directly affect reality using math.
[23:59] * Newborn Lich looks at Paisley Pythia Peinforte.
[23:59] *** Paisley Pythia Peinforte is



More information about her is Here.
Her image Song is: "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple.
[23:59] *** Gel-Guard has joined #suburbansenshi2
[23:59] <@spiritflame> irasshai Gel-Guard
[23:59] <Newborn Lich> Geomancy?
[23:59] * Gel-Guard waddles in
[23:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ....
[23:59] * Newborn Lich looks at Gel-Guard.
[23:59] *** Gel-Guard is your average everyday Gel-Guard

[23:59] * Bixia Yuanjin starts with the tricks again
[00:00] * Gel-Guard drops off a log cake
[00:00] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte sees this as a good test...
[00:00] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte uses Block Transfer Maths to try and shatter the Gel Guard
[00:00] <Bixia Yuanjin> cake :o
[00:00] <Aescapulus> Probably 20 years?
[00:00] * Gel-Guard SHATTERS
[00:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> :O
[00:00] * Gel-Guard slowly starts to reform
[00:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I did it!
[00:00] * Gel-Guard is crying
[00:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ... :<
[00:01] <Bixia Yuanjin> Noooooooo bringer of cake D:
[00:01] <Aescapulus> If you allow cortical stimulation, I might get it down to 5...
[00:01] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte helps it.
[00:01] * Gel-Guard waddles off
[00:01] * Bixia Yuanjin pats Gel-Guard with a couch cushion
[00:01] *** Gel-Guard has left #suburbansenshi2
[00:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sorry, I didn't know it had feeling s><
[00:01] * Bixia Yuanjin investigates log cake
[00:02] * Gel-Guard left behind a very nice log cake with an Omega symbol on it
[00:04] <Newborn Lich> Sorceress, what exactly do you wish to learn?
[00:04] * Newborn Lich sits next to Paisley.
[00:04] * Bixia Yuanjin cuts a slice and tastes!
[00:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm not questing after knowledge right now.
[00:04] <Aescapulus> It is more I wanted to teach her.
[00:04] <Newborn Lich> Eh, why not? It's a worthy goal.
[00:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Aesculapius saw I didn't have a formal understanding of the maths I use, and was trying to suggest more ways for me to learn.
[00:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Right now I need to strengthen my fortitude.
[00:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Having a refractory period of a whole WEEK after doing a ten minute time reversal is unacceptable in this house.
[00:05] * the log cake is very good!
[00:05] <Bixia Yuanjin> :o
[00:05] * Bixia Yuanjin nomphs more
[00:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If I'd been as strong as some of my sisters... I might have been able to save Templar...
[00:06] <Newborn Lich> Save whom?
[00:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> A rather shifty girl.
[00:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But she was being attacked, and I was trying to shield / heal her
[00:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But I hit my limit...
[00:07] <Newborn Lich> Ah, well we all have our limits, it's best to know them.
[00:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because I don't really "heal" per se.
[00:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I actually reverse time around the injured.
[00:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So it takes a lot more raw power.
[00:08] <Aescapulus> I think "Simon" the term you were looking for earlier is Arithromancy.
[00:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm all about knowing my limitations... but I knwo I can do more.
[00:09] <Newborn Lich> ...I had heard of a group of casters called Geometers, who used the Symbol to manipulate magic itself.
[00:09] <Newborn Lich> Naturally, I just assumed.
[00:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I don't inscribe symbols, I intone equations.
[00:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But that's only for Block Transfer Workings.
[00:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> For other things it's more direct manipulation.
[00:10] <Newborn Lich> Well, a new day, a new lesson. The world expands with every new idea, and those that can't keep up are left behind. I personally find that fascinating. If you agreed to teach me, you'd find me an avid pupil.
[00:10] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm a full Sister, but there's a lot I still don't know.
[00:10] <Newborn Lich> By the way, has anybody seen a very short person?
[00:10] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I;m not a fit teacher.
[00:10] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ... Chibiusa?
[00:11] <.'~SugaBB_2999~'.> hsssssssssssssssh
[00:11] * Aescapulus scans the Newborn Lich very carefully with both old and new senses...
[00:11] <.'~SugaBB_2999~'.> hssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssh
[00:11] <.'~SugaBB_2999~'.> /mi latchaze onto laches foat
[00:11] <Aescapulus> I think he refers to The Revisionist.
[00:11] <.'~SugaBB_2999~'.> /mi hamps

[00:11] <Sarah Christensson> ....huh...
[00:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ....
[00:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Disgusting
[00:12] <Newborn Lich> Hello there little one.
[00:12] <.'~SugaBB_2999~'.> hay bb
[00:12] <Newborn Lich> She's not the person I am looking for, though...
[00:12] <Newborn Lich> Hello little girl.
[00:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Arx is gone.
[00:12] <Newborn Lich> Eh?
[00:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She went off to go walkabout.
[00:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I think you know why.
[00:13] <Newborn Lich> Huh, a pity. I think we had words for "each other."
[00:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ¬_¬
[00:13] * Aescapulus attempts to figure out if Omniuploading would work on a Lich's brain...
[00:13] <Newborn Lich> She needs the introspection, what motivated her to do so is irrelevant.
[00:13] * Newborn Lich looks at the kid dry-humping him.
[00:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If you say so,
[00:14] * oh it ain't dry anymore
[00:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Your experiment is certainly interesting, I guess.
[00:14] * E itak_Razal appears next to Chibi-usa and wispers something to completly convice her to chase after simon before vanishing again, while grinning and waveing bye
[00:14] <Eitak_Razal> *^
[00:14] *** Eitak_Razal [Queen@Neggerra.gov] has quit IRC (*grin* *Wave*)
[00:15] <.'~SugaBB_2999~'.> /mi iz alredi jakhamamrang haz foat wat moar dew u went?!?!!?
[00:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But I think it'll have unintended cinsequences.
[00:15] <ArcheryGirl> Should I be scared that Eitak has a plan that involves Chibi-Usa
[00:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Probably. anything involving her is sketchy at best.
[00:16] <Newborn Lich> It shall certainly have INTENDED consequences.
[00:16] <Newborn Lich> I have not exactly been shy about my ambition. It is not my fault if Arx did nto pay attention to it.
[00:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Eh, just be careful. Woudln't want to see you time-looped or sometthing.
[00:16] * Aescapulus performs a 3D scan of Simon's head.
[00:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If she wasn't a nicer person...
[00:17] * Newborn Lich turns to Paisely. "I intend for that to k... nevermind."
[00:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> you'd have ended up stuck in an endlessly repeating moment of history for your whole lifespan, which would be forever.
[00:17] <Newborn Lich> I'd be suprisingly okay with that.
[00:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That's a LOT of navel-gazing with no outside inputs.
[00:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Still, she's not that kind of person.
[00:18] <Newborn Lich> Truly, it would be disaster unless the person in question could forge a new reality.
[00:18] * Aescapulus constructs a prototype.
[00:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She forgave ME, for god's sake, and I...
[00:18] <ArcheryGirl> Didn't Nivek already threaten you with something similar once?
[00:18] * Bixia Yuanjin goes back to the yo-yo, now with cake mostly eaten
[00:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I did so much to her.
[00:19] * Newborn Lich grins. "He certainly did."
[00:19] <ArcheryGirl> Really with all the time actives around here, pissing off anyone is a bad idea
[00:19] * Aescapulus transmats said prototype next to Simon.
[00:19] <Newborn Lich> Even if it makes them grow?
[00:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> A reality in a bottle is still a bottle in the ocean.
[00:19] <Aescapulus> If you'd care to try that helmet on Simon?
[00:19] <ArcheryGirl> .... Ok. Now you're creeping me out
[00:19] <Newborn Lich> ....Perhaps some other time, my new friend? I believe I need to speak with this woman about something important.
[00:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You're going to make him a super genius?
[00:20] <Newborn Lich> /inventoryput Dangerous Untested Device|1
[00:20] *** Newborn Lich has placed Ascension Helmet in Inventory Slot: 9
[00:20] <Aescapulus> No, I was going to teach him math up through calculus.
[00:20] <Newborn Lich> Hmmmm....
[00:21] <Newborn Lich> I would certainly try it, but I do not beleive it would work on me.
[00:21] <Aescapulus> I wanted to see how long it stuck.
[00:21] <Newborn Lich> Oh. Well.
[00:21] <Aescapulus> Thus the experiment Simon.
[00:21] <Newborn Lich> What about tomorrow?
[00:22] * Sarah Christensson goes back to sleep
[00:23] * Newborn Lich turns to Paisley Pythia Peinforte.
[00:23] <Newborn Lich> You and I need to speak, Sorceress.
[00:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Everything he learns would probably be stored in the Akhashic...
[00:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes>
[00:23] <Newborn Lich> ...Badly.
[00:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm free to talk.
[00:23] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte leans on the tree she's guarding.
[00:25] * Newborn Lich walks over to the Tree.
[00:26] <Newborn Lich> You've got to let this go.
[00:26] <Newborn Lich> Why don't we walk outside, for a moment?
[00:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Let what go?
[00:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sure.
[00:26] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte walks outside.
[00:26] * Newborn Lich points toward the door, and waits for her to exit first.
[00:27] <Newborn Lich> Do you want me to be subtle, or blunt?
[00:27] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Whatever.
[00:27] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm a big girl.
[00:29] <Newborn Lich> Yes, but more importantly, you are not a murderer.
[00:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Still.
[00:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I was too weak.
[00:29] <Newborn Lich> Weakness is different than being a killer, in most cases.
[00:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The mental powers of the Sisterhood are so formidable they can kill a normal man by madness in short order.
[00:30] <Aescapulus> Sunday good with you Simon?
[00:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And I was so easily controlled.
[00:30] <Newborn Lich> I have had EXTENSIVE practice in dominating people and directing their actions. They reflect upon ME, not upon THEM. In the grand scheme of things, anyway.
[00:30] <Newborn Lich> The Town Guards don't always think so.
[00:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I suppose.
[00:31] <Newborn Lich> My point is this, if you are going to beat yourself up, do it for the right reasons.
[00:31] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'll get over it, in time.
[00:31] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte smiles
[00:31] *** Aescapulus [root@aescapulus.org] has left #suburbansenshi2 (Until you again need my services...)
[00:31] <Newborn Lich> It's important that you do.
[00:31] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Thanks for the pep talk.
[00:31] <Newborn Lich> Because if you do NOT get over it, and are plagued by doubt of yoru resilience? It will only be MUCH easier for the next person to enforce their will upon you.
[00:32] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> True enough.
[00:32] <Newborn Lich> Good. You are indeed a gib girl.
[00:32] <Newborn Lich> ^big girl.
[00:33] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> thanks.
[00:34] <Newborn Lich> Everybody has a moment of weakness. She was the killer, and you were not. I tend to have a very good grasp of patsies, beleive me. If you would not have acted on it, without her instruction, then you have nothing to feel guilt about. If you WOULD HAVE, then you should be grateful she gave you the excuse to do it and not be blamed.
[00:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If I would have I would not be experiencing guilt at all.
[00:34] <Newborn Lich> Now stop this nonsense about being weak. Feeling bad that you are not perfect has NEVER helped anyone.
[00:35] <Newborn Lich> And whether magical or physical or mental, everybody is flawed.
[00:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm not feleing bad about not being perfect.
[00:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I know I'm not perfect.
[00:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I want to be better than I am.
[00:35] <Newborn Lich> Then why beat yourself up that you were weak?
[00:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because I need to motivate myself to push harder.
[00:37] * Newborn Lich nods.
[00:37] <Newborn Lich> ♦ Then go, and work harder to improve yourself.
[00:37] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte tilts her head to the side
[00:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Were you just trying to impress a command on me?
[00:38] <Newborn Lich> I was trying to make a point.
[00:38] <Newborn Lich> If you could resist it, then take it as proof that you are strong. That is my point.
[00:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm usually resistant to mental compulsion.. that;s why they had to use a Ceti Eel...
[00:39] <Newborn Lich> Sorry, I suppose you DID say not to be subtle, didn't you?

[00:40] * Newborn Lich smiles, and smells the fragrant energy of the Forest.

[00:43] <Newborn Lich> Who was that person?
[00:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Chibiusa. A small girl with mental problems from what I understand.
[00:43] <Newborn Lich> Oh. Well that explains a little bit. Come, let's return.
[00:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Right.
[00:44] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte walks back.
[00:44] * Newborn Lich returns to the House, making a point to put his shoes on before he goes into the House.
[00:46] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte settles by the tree.
[00:46] * Bixia Yuanjin is still fussing with the yo-yo
[00:47] * Newborn Lich leans against the Tree as well.
[00:48] <Newborn Lich> Sooo... I was thinking. Who can tell me about the Time Lords?
[00:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Another Time Lord.
[00:48] <Newborn Lich> And to do that, I need to know, What is Gallifrey?
[00:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Their home planet.
[00:48] * the power goes out
[00:49] <Thrash> grrr not again
[00:49] <Bixia Yuanjin> Eee!
[00:49] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte sighs and lights a small flame from her fingertips.
[00:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Also the original home of the Sisterhood of the Flame before they left to settle on Karn.
[00:49] * Bixia Yuanjin looks around, verifies the non-existence of Certain Things, then tentatively resumes her practice in the darkness
[00:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Back then of course, they were the Pythian Sisterhood.
[00:51] * ArcheryGirl pulls out a flash light, and shine's it in people's faces by accident
[00:51] * Thrash starts to fiddle with the circut breaker
[00:51] <Bixia Yuanjin> hay >:|
[00:51] <Thrash> why is it..everytime I try to stabalize this blasted place......the power always bloody goes out
[00:51] <ArcheryGirl> Because you're not very good at what you do?
[00:52] <Thrash> I RESENT THAT
[00:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because you Time Lords never leave well enough alone.
[00:52] <Thrash> yes and you sisterhoods are so much superior
[00:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[00:52] * Horrifying Laughter echoes in the darkness.
[00:53] * Thrash starts to take apart the circut braker
[00:53] <Thrash> *breaker
[00:53] * Bixia Yuanjin paaaauses, going shifty-eyes
[00:54] * Creeping tingle of fear spreads though the blackness.
[00:54] * Thrash is throughly unaffected
[00:54] <Newborn Lich> Sorry, sorry, I'll stop.
[00:55] <Thrash> we wouldn't keep having this trouble if someone would just allow me to install a singularity generator here
[00:55] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is also unaffected, for much the same reason as Thrahs, though eh can feel what shes; resisting more acutely
[00:55] <Newborn Lich> Huh, it's like it's totally black except for the voices.
[00:56] <Bixia Yuanjin> And the flashlight and the fire-finger.
[00:56] * Thrash replaces the circut breaker to it's original area and switches on..the power being restored
[00:56] * Newborn Lich looks at Thrash.
[00:56] *** Thrash is young man with long shoulder length black hair and brown eyes. He wears a black leather coat opened to show his chest, black leather pants, boots and a black eyepatch over his right eye and is 6'5. He is in his fourth regeneration.
His image Song is: "Holding Out For a Hero" by Bonnie Tyler.
[00:56] <Thrash> there we go
[00:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Grief.
[00:57] * the power switches back on
[00:57] * Bixia Yuanjin looks at the ceiling, waiting to see if it goes out again for a moment
[00:58] * Bixia Yuanjin is satisfied and resumes practice, though there's less energy than previously
[00:58] <Newborn Lich> Sorry about that, base temptation. Ever walk along, see a rock, and completely fail to resist the urge to kick it?
[00:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[00:59] * Thrash goes back into his TARDIS
[00:59] *** Thrash has left #suburbansenshi2
[01:00] <Newborn Lich> Same thing, really.
[01:02] * Bixia Yuanjin winds the yo-yo up, waves, and starts on out
[01:02] <Newborn Lich> Take care of yourself, Bixia. I mean that literally.
[01:02] * Newborn Lich waves.
[01:03] <Bixia Yuanjin> mmm hmm~.
[01:03] * Bixia Yuanjin is away 
[01:04] <Newborn Lich> Well, I'll find out about the Time Lords from somebody else, then.
[01:04] * Newborn Lich touches the Bonsai Tree with his hand.
[01:04] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte nods.
[01:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What do you want to know about them?
[01:06] <Newborn Lich> lots of things.
[01:06] * Newborn Lich describes Sakura Xadium Aino.
[01:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What about her?
[01:08] <Newborn Lich> Oh... I just have some questions.
[01:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I know her a little? I might be able to help?
[01:08] <Newborn Lich> Perhaps you are not the best person. I've been speaking with the person who dominated you, and I'm curious what drives her.
[01:09] <Newborn Lich> It's not important, though.
[01:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ...what does that have to do with Sakura?
[01:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The person who used me was DeVenger... and not even her per se.
[01:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> At the time it was just a clone of Hazel Ninegate.
[01:11] <Newborn Lich> ...That tells me a little.
[01:12] <Newborn Lich> I don't know.
[01:13] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte shrugs
[01:14] <Newborn Lich> Maybe I should ask her myself.
[01:18] <Newborn Lich> My question is, basically, what it is that makes a time lord a time lord.
[01:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> A lot of training and the Rassilon Imprimatur.
[01:22] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Gallifreyans by themselves can't regeenrate.
[01:22] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> They are more sensitive to the Time Vortex
[01:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> There has been ONE case of a baby being born in the Time Vortex that was able to regernerate...
[01:23] * Newborn Lich listens.
[01:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But nobody understands what the hell was up with that.
[01:23] <Newborn Lich> Mind if I ask what you think of Humanity?
[01:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I love them! I'm human, after all.
[01:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I only trained on Karn. Which is why I'm catching up in many ways.
[01:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm not a Time Lord.
[01:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Karnians are Gallifreyans. they just moved home.
[01:25] <Newborn Lich> ....Would you be one if you could?
[01:25] * Newborn Lich leans forward, interested to an almost unhealthy extent.
[01:28] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte braks out laughing
[01:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> HAHAHAHAHAHA
[01:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> They need technology and machines to do what I can do in my HEAD.
[01:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sure they've leveraged those machines well and can do things like move planets around, explode suns and master dimensions
[01:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> that we Sisters can't...
[01:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> but we have better control of our mind powers and temporal magics.
[01:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I want to be what I am.
[01:29] * Newborn Lich listens.
[01:29] <Newborn Lich> Well, I certainly echo that feeling.
[01:41] <Newborn Lich> What's with the tree, Sorceress?
[01:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I promised Arx I'd tend it for her in her absence.
[01:42] <Newborn Lich> What's the deal about it?
[01:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She finds it calming.
[01:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Probably appeals to her thunderian nature.
[01:44] <Newborn Lich> Is that why she's so angry?
[01:44] <Newborn Lich> ...Also... did she ask that Golem to... nah, nevermind.
[01:45] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hmm?
[01:45] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She's angry for lots of reasons.
[01:46] <Newborn Lich> How old is she?
[01:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hmm.
[01:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'd have to say several hundred at least.
[01:48] <Newborn Lich> You really worried somebody will do something to this tree? Is that all? I am skeptical of that.
[01:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> No, I'm just making sure it stays nourished.
[01:49] <Newborn Lich> Oh. You know. I think I'm going to go look at the World Tree. Visit it for a bit.
[01:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Oka.y Enjoy.

[12:55] * @Texas_Samurai flips a page n' works on th' last section... th' villains.
[12:56] <@Texas_Samurai> It was kinda sad...
[12:56] <@Texas_Samurai> they was Confederate Veterans who somehoe became immortal...
[12:56] <Bixia Yuanjin> :\
[12:56] <@Texas_Samurai> They honestly thought they could change th' world fer th' better.
[12:57] <@Texas_Samurai> They almost brought down this huge pyramid "Eden" on Washington DC...
[12:57] <@Texas_Samurai> But they all died in th' end.
[12:57] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Sunnyside once told me the whole steam armor thing started in the Civil War?
[12:58] <@Texas_Samurai> alls Ah know is, there was black magic afoot in th' South, probba;y from th' same folk who made Partrick n' th' others immortal.
[12:58] <@Texas_Samurai> An' as a side effect, th' North discovered Celsus steel...
[12:59] <@Texas_Samurai> Which was th' base fer Spirit-reactive armor.
[12:59] <@Texas_Samurai> After that STAR industries started buildin' em, but th' Japanese took over th' technology
[13:00] <@Texas_Samurai> It wasn't until when Sunnyside got involved that America took th' lead again...
[13:00] <@Texas_Samurai> That's why th' unit Ah pilot is a STAR.
[13:00] <@Texas_Samurai> But t'tell th' truth it's a combination of th' best of Japanese, French n' American Technology
[13:01] <Bixia Yuanjin> :o
[13:01] <@Wolf> Science!
[13:02] * @Texas_Samurai doesn't know more than that... Sunny's th' fella t' ask. Or Ratchet.

[13:16] *** DCUO_YingGirl [guardianphoenix@unknowndestiny.com] has left #suburbansenshi2 (To Fight for Love and Justice)
[13:20] <Det. Ema Skye> What're you working on, kid?
[13:20] * Det. Ema Skye looks to see what Bixia's doing
[13:21] <Bixia Yuanjin> Have you ever heard of the Deus Machina?
[13:21] <Det. Ema Skye> In the torchwood Archives... they're these big machines, right?
[13:21] * Bixia Yuanjin has a bunch of possibilities scrawled beneath a giant robot and an Artist's Imagination of what a koubou is
[13:22] <Det. Ema Skye> You look like you're trying to sketch out a machine...
[13:22] <@Texas_Samurai> Y'know... if you want somethin' built... Sunny, Ratchet and Miss Michiru can do it for ya.
[13:22] <Bixia Yuanjin> Something Gemini said a bit before you got in here made me think about something.
[13:23] <Bixia Yuanjin> How big do Koubu usually get, do you know?
[13:24] <@Texas_Samurai> Well Koubu are like... 15-20 feet high... STARs are like 40 feet or somesuch.
[13:24] * Bixia Yuanjin makes a note of that
[13:24] <@RiderHeroProject> [URL]
[13:24] <Bixia Yuanjin> Is there a reason they don't get much taller?
[13:25] <@Texas_Samurai> Well they's usually just used fer one pilot... it's more like a protective suit of armor...
[13:25] <@Texas_Samurai> An th' reason they don't git too much bigger is they run off th' spirit power of th' user.
[13:26] <Bixia Yuanjin> Eee. :D
[13:26] <@Texas_Samurai> Too big n' y' couldn't make it move. Unless y' had terrible amounts of power...
[13:26] <Michael Sunnyside III> "Run off" isn't quote right.
[13:26] <Bixia Yuanjin> :D :D
[13:26] * Michael Sunnyside III waves
[13:27] <Michael Sunnyside III> They interface with the spirit power of the user, whic amplifies its abiilities.
[13:27] <Michael Sunnyside III> The main power come from Steam generators.
[13:27] * Bixia Yuanjin scribbles that down then
[13:27] <Michael Sunnyside III> In theory you could make a large one, but yes, to get full use of it you'd need magnitudes more power.
[13:28] <Michael Sunnyside III> It's telling that on steam power alone, the suits can't move.
[13:28] <Michael Sunnyside III> Maybe roll but that's it.
[13:28] * @Texas_Samurai waves to Sunny
[13:28] <Det. Ema Skye> ...Jesus Christ are you Michael Sunnyside?!
[13:29] <Michael Sunnyside III> It would be great if he was, wouldn't it!
[13:29] <Bixia Yuanjin> So if Celcius steel gets lighter when it's charged with spirit power, and also makes it conductive to the user's talents...
[13:29] * Michael Sunnyside III toothglints
[13:29] <Bixia Yuanjin> urgh we'd still need a second >_<
[13:30] <Michael Sunnyside III> it doesn't get lighter, but it is buoyable by Spirit power.
[13:30] <Michael Sunnyside III> A second what, might I ask?
[13:30] * Det. Ema Skye is sitting in the same room as one of the top 5 richest men on the PLANET.
[13:30] * Det. Ema Skye does her hair <_<
[13:31] <Bixia Yuanjin> Something Gemini said got me thinking about giant robots and then I thought, "Well, I don't have a Deus Machina like all the other girls do, how would I go about getting one."
[13:32] <Michael Sunnyside III> Why would you need a "second one"? Anotehr pilot?
[13:32] <Michael Sunnyside III> Building you a Spirit Armor would be simplicity itself.
[13:32] * Bixia Yuanjin considers how to go about the truth
[13:33] <Michael Sunnyside III> You're a grimoire. I know that.
[13:33] <Bixia Yuanjin> I'm pretty sure I could generate spirit energy to move a Spirit Armor, maybe even one of the bigger ones.
[13:33] * Michael Sunnyside III knows a lot of arcane things. <_<
[13:33] <Bixia Yuanjin> But if I had a sorcerer...
[13:34] <Michael Sunnyside III> But shy are you limiting yourself to spirit power?
[13:34] <Michael Sunnyside III> ^why
[13:34] <Michael Sunnyside III> Surely you have the ability to harness other energies?
[13:34] <Bixia Yuanjin> It's all interchangeable to me.
[13:35] <Bixia Yuanjin> Alone, I can only use so much of my energy at any given moment. It's like having access to a city's water supply through a kitchen sink tap.
[13:35] <Michael Sunnyside III> I mean, for one of the girls, (Lobelia excpeted maybe), moving a giant frame would need more power than they can reliably put out.
[13:35] <Michael Sunnyside III> Ahhh~
[13:35] <Michael Sunnyside III> Gotcha.
[13:35] <Michael Sunnyside III> that is a problem.
[13:35] <Michael Sunnyside III> That's exactly what limits the girls too.
[13:36] <Michael Sunnyside III> It'snature's safety valve.
[13:36] * Michael Sunnyside III ponders.
[13:36] <Bixia Yuanjin> Yeah. With a sorcerer, though... with a sorcerer, I'm so much stronger.
[13:36] <Michael Sunnyside III> Batteries.
[13:37] <Michael Sunnyside III> If you don't want a Sorceror, you could charge up "Spirit Capacitors".
[13:37] <Bixia Yuanjin> Those exist? :o
[13:37] <Michael Sunnyside III> Granted you'd be up a creek once they were drained...
[13:37] <Michael Sunnyside III> They can.
[13:37] <Bixia Yuanjin> Hee hee.
[13:38] * Michael Sunnyside III writes up an order to Angelo Hamashi / Kioh Heavy Industries.
[13:38] <Michael Sunnyside III> It's something I've been pondering as a safety feature for the STARs / Koubus / Selphers.
[13:39] <Michael Sunnyside III> You should send me your requirements for a suit.
[13:39] <Michael Sunnyside III> It'll be an interesting engineeering challenge!
[13:39] * @Texas_Samurai grumbles, knowin;' how mahy tims her STAR coulda used a backup battery.
[13:39] <Bixia Yuanjin> yesssssss I will talk with people who do know these things and I will be back with details!
[13:40] <Michael Sunnyside III> Fabulous!
[13:40] * Michael Sunnyside III looks to see if he's in Gemini's scrapbook
[13:40] <@Texas_Samurai> Y'aint :P This is before Ah came t' New York :P
[13:41] * Michael Sunnyside III withers
[13:47] <@Texas_Samurai> X' Darlin' wanna help me scrapbook?
[13:47] <@Texas_Samurai> Ah'll make us a pizza.
[13:47] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Okay, but I don't want to mess it up <_<
[13:47] <@Texas_Samurai> Hush, jus' glue th' papers like this...

[13:48] * @Texas_Samurai is away: cookin'
[13:48] <@Dоcтоʀ X> This is a lot of work <_<
[13:49] <@Dоcтоʀ X> I don't see why people don't do this diigtally
[13:50] <Det. Ema Skye> Because there's something about being able to hold your memories in your hands.
[13:57] * Bixia Yuanjin nodsnods, concurring
[14:02] <@Dоcтоʀ X> /mw nods, and keeps working on the scrapbook.
[14:03] <@Dоcтоʀ X> This has to be a fad or something, I hadn't even heard of scrapbooking as a thing until a few years abck.
[14:04] * Bixia Yuanjin shrugs animatedly!
[14:04] <Bixia Yuanjin> My awareness of that sort of thing really only goes back about five years plus a lot of random trivia, so I wouldn't know.
[14:07] <@Dоcтоʀ X> It's a pet theory of mine.
[14:12] <Aescapulus> You keep theories as pets, Master Xadium?
[14:12] <@Dоcтоʀ X> In a sense.
[14:12] * @Doctor X waves to the remote probe.
[14:12] * Det. Ema Skye perks up!
[14:13] <Aescapulus> I try not to get that atached, theories tend to die to easily.
[14:13] * Det. Ema Skye jumps out her seat and looks all around the robot thing!
[14:13] * Aescapulus bobs in the direction of Xadium.
[14:13] <@Dоcтоʀ X> So do goldfish, doesn't keep people from keeping them.
[14:14] <Aescapulus> Of course they also try to keep emotionally detached from their goldfish.
[14:16] <Aescapulus> In any case, good afternoon...
[14:16] <@Dоcтоʀ X> You are a cheerful fellow.
[14:17] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Afternoon!
[14:17] <Aescapulus> And may I assist you Detective Skye?
[14:17] * Det. Ema Skye is just gawking over the probe.
[14:18] <Det. Ema Skye> What are you!
[14:18] <Det. Ema Skye> This is amazing!
[14:19] <Aescapulus> This particular body is a remote interface device... my actual "body" is a bit to large to comfortably interact in this environment.
[14:19] <Det. Ema Skye> So like some kind of UAV...
[14:20] <Aescapulus> Somewhat, I suppose.
[14:20] <Aescapulus> One of the more common terms I encounter is "Avatar".
[14:21] <Det. Ema Skye> Oh gosh, I hated that movie.
[14:21] <Aescapulus> Mov... oh that. I suppose it has a tangential relation.
[14:23] <Aescapulus> But yes it is much simpler maintaining a nice solar orbit while I send in remotes.
[14:24] <Det. Ema Skye> How di you get in orbit?
[14:25] <Aescapulus> I simply dropped out of hyperspace in the appropriate location and accelerated to an appropriate velocity to stay in orbit.
[14:26] <Aescapulus> The required speeds are quite low out here in the Oort Cloud.
[14:27] <Det. Ema Skye> That's waaay out...
[14:27] <Aescapulus> That's why I have fold-space comms.
[14:29] <Aescapulus> But by being so far out I don't have to resort to extreme measures to hide from Earth based sensors.
[14:29] <Det. Ema Skye> What made you come here?
[14:29] <Aescapulus> My builder decided to move here.
[14:30] <Aescapulus> You may have met him.
[14:30] <Det. Ema Skye> Your builder?
[14:31] <Aescapulus> Well, the one who caused me to be constucted... he's called Raihosha around here?
[14:31] * Aescapulus looks in the mirror.
[14:31] *** Aescapulus is 4000km diameter spaceship. Fortunately for your planet, he is talking to you, with Stephen Fry's voice, from a small speaker at the south pole of a 1 foot floating metal sphere, a caduceus covers one hemisphere.
hir image Song is: "The World" by Emily Bindinger.
[14:32] <Det. Ema Skye> Oh wow.
[14:33] <Aescapulus> I think people would notice if I tried to impersonate your moon...
[14:33] <@Dоcтоʀ X> I think the Cybermen would notice...
[14:35] <Aescapulus> The Silurians might approve.
[14:36] <@Dоcтоʀ X> True.
[14:40] <Aescapulus> And what is Mistress Bixia Yuanjin working on today?
[14:47] * Aescapulus just waits for someone to speak.
[14:47] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Sorry, trying to make sure I get Gemmy's scrapbook right for her.
[14:48] <Aescapulus> So picture albums are making a comeback?
[14:50] <@Dоcтоʀ X> I suppose. But this is fancier than a simple album.
[14:51] <Aescapulus> But who did simple albums?
[14:52] <@Dоcтоʀ X> point taken
[14:53] <Aescapulus> Oh! Madame Paisley helped me make a breakthrough last night...
[14:53] * Aescapulus starts projecting the dense mathematics he did last night.
[14:54] <Aescapulus> If you look at the 6th order equations you can see what has to be happening in the course of so called "mana channeling"...
[14:55] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Oh? I hope little sister's doing well...
[14:55] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Hmm, but you're still inferencing rather than sensing, aren't you?
[14:56] <Aescapulus> Well once I knew what sort of power levels had to be there, I realized that Dr. Seaton had already described 6th order sensors to me...
[14:56] <Aescapulus> So I retrofitted this remote and now I can see the energy flows.
[14:57] <Aescapulus> Now, figuring out how the manipulation is occuring, I can tell is a long term project.
[14:58] <Aescapulus> I have to wonder if I couldn't design a mana co-processor.
[14:59] <@Dоcтоʀ X> well i think the key is to start monitoring the bioelectric power centers of the body and looking for effects atypical with normal human patterns.
[15:00] <Aescapulus> But for the time being I'm constructing some high sensitivity arrays for my main body.
[15:00] <Aescapulus> The problem, Xadium, is that I'm not sure how atypical the effects are...
[15:01] <Aescapulus> There is some speculation that there is a latent ability in all humans.
[15:01] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Yes, but the energy centers in a latent person won't be as active.
[15:02] <@Dоcтоʀ X> So get a median average for humanity.
[15:02] <Aescapulus> True.
[15:03] <@Dоcтоʀ X> then a median for humans with active powers in this house
[15:03] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Then compare.
[15:03] <Aescapulus> And I am working on getting baseline measurements from a statistically significant portion of humanity.
[15:05] <Aescapulus> But since it has to be a subtle effect, since otherwise they would have already discovered it, I think a hundred million is an appropriate sample size.
[15:06] <Aescapulus> And I need a full week of observations to filter out natural variability.
[15:07] <Aescapulus> So it'll be at least a month.
[15:11] <Aescapulus> I suspect analysis of the Hotel Residents will take longer.
[15:11] * @Doctor X nods
[15:11] * Det. Ema Skye takes a seat again and snacks
[15:11] <Eitak_Razal> There are ways to forceably activate a human's latant powers...
[15:12] <Aescapulus> I don't have a human experimentation committee to answer to, but I still think that would be unethical without informed consent.
[15:12] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Yup, rei.bot knows them.
[15:13] <Eitak_Razal> You can analyze my ablities all you want though doing it near the forest would skew the results
[15:15] <Aescapulus> Well, I need to get the baseline as well...
[15:16] * Aescapulus scans Eitak.
[15:16] * Bixia Yuanjin stares blearily at the sheafs of paper she has scrawled designs onto
[15:17] <Aescapulus> I'll assign a sensor remote to follow you?
[15:18] <Aescapulus> Probably a suite of smart dust, so it is unobtrusive.
[15:18] * Aescapulus looks at Bixia and her notes...
[15:19] <Bixia Yuanjin> I think this is the command interface for a Deus Machina.
[15:19] <Bixia Yuanjin> I'm not sure why I know this, but as soon as I started thinking about what it would take...
[15:19] <Michael Sunnyside III> Oh?
[15:21] <Bixia Yuanjin> You may know how there're artefacts out there who are awake, right?
[15:21] <Michael Sunnyside III> Yes.
[15:21] <Bixia Yuanjin> The little god of the artefact has taken notice of something, or been roused to awareness by someone clever enough to do it...
[15:22] <Bixia Yuanjin> Based on all of this I'm starting to think that a Deus Machina itself is awake.
[15:22] <Bixia Yuanjin> I've never run one before. That kind of war's always been my sisters' interest.
[15:22] <Bixia Yuanjin> But they're awake, and aware-- not like mortal consciousness, but like Mount Fuji is awake.
[15:23] *** Aescapulus [root@aescapulus.org] has left #suburbansenshi2 (Until you again need my services...)
[15:24] <Michael Sunnyside III> So it's more than just a suit... Well.. some Koubu have... done things indepently... but not for very long...
[15:24] <Bixia Yuanjin> Consciousness isn't something most things we'd call 'inanimate' tend to sustain for very long. It's the tools that last that are the real wonders.
[15:25] <Bixia Yuanjin> But the more something gets used, by one person, in great things, the more likely it is to rouse-- even if just for a little while.
[15:25] <Bixia Yuanjin> It's like waking up from a dream, a little bit.
[15:26] <Bixia Yuanjin> But big things tend to have weird consciousness as we'd measure them.
[15:27] <Bixia Yuanjin> A grimoire, itself a 'thing' but also made to empathize with sapience... serves as a point of connection between the two.
[15:28] <Bixia Yuanjin> Volition given to authority.
[15:28] <Bixia Yuanjin> If Al-Azif were here I think she could explain it better but I don't think she'd want to either.
[15:31] * Bixia Yuanjin shakes her head after a moment
[15:31] <Michael Sunnyside III> Hmm, so you'd need a partner to mediate the connection...
[15:33] * Bixia Yuanjin crosses her legs beneath her
[15:35] <Bixia Yuanjin> engineering 9_9
[15:36] <@Wolf> ♡ sigh ♡
[15:36] <Michael Sunnyside III> Would an artifical intelligence work?
[15:38] <Bixia Yuanjin> Not unless it were a very particular artificial intelligence.
[15:38] <Bixia Yuanjin> A real ghost-in-the-machine kind of thing. And even then I'm not sure.
[15:43] <Michael Sunnyside III> But you're sentient too.
[15:43] * Bixia Yuanjin nodsnods, thinking
[15:43] <Michael Sunnyside III> I think you could overcome the need for a sorceror.
[15:43] <Michael Sunnyside III> You could probaly work a conventional spirit armor as is...
[15:44] <Bixia Yuanjin> ...yeah, that much I'm willing to try out to see how it works.
[15:44] <Michael Sunnyside III> with the use of the backup batteries.
[15:44] <Michael Sunnyside III> All right.
[15:44] <Michael Sunnyside III> We will build you one.
[15:45] <Bixia Yuanjin> :D
[15:45] <Michael Sunnyside III> I think a standard Koubu size is better for you for now.
[15:46] * Bixia Yuanjin nodsnods!
[15:47] <Michael Sunnyside III> Hmm.
[15:47] <Michael Sunnyside III> What are you special skills in combat?
[15:47] <Michael Sunnyside III> Or rather... what's your weapon of choice?
[15:48] * Bixia Yuanjin calls back in memory
[15:49] <Bixia Yuanjin> In the past I've mostly been support from afar, but if I'm focusing on powering armor I don't know how well that'll work out... so when things get close up I tend to use hand and foot techniques.
[15:50] <Michael Sunnyside III> We have long range armors as well.
[15:50] <Michael Sunnyside III> their weapons usually clear a great deal of distance but aren't the best in melees.
[15:51] <Michael Sunnyside III> Well, we can surely work with that.
[15:52] <Bixia Yuanjin> I'll talk with Matsumi-san's people, they should be able get me more data on that then.
[15:53] <Michael Sunnyside III> Good idea, she'll suggest a good fit for you.
[16:01] * @Texas_Samurai brigns out delicious pizza fer everyone!
[16:01] <Bixia Yuanjin> :O
[16:01] * Bixia Yuanjin waits patiently for people to have first crack and then dives in herself
[16:02] * @Texas_Samurai looks over X's work with th' scrapbook n' nods
[16:02] <@Texas_Samurai> See, y'got th' idea!
[16:22] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Well, I could use more practice.
[16:28] * @Doctor X talks to Sunnyside about something
[16:46] *** Ozu Reiko [ozureiko@gekkokan.kirijo.ac.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[16:46] <@spiritflame> irasshai Ozu Reiko
[16:47] <@Texas_Samurai> Howdy!
[16:47] <Ozu Reiko> Hello.
[16:49] * Ozu Reiko walks over to a mirror, looking at herself.
[16:49] <Ozu Reiko> ... gods, my hair is still in pigtails?
[16:50] <Bixia Yuanjin> Yes? :o
[16:51] * Ozu Reiko looks at herself in disgust.
[16:55] <Bixia Yuanjin> What are you thinking instead?
[16:56] <Ozu Reiko> Not sure.
[16:59] <Bixia Yuanjin> May I?
[17:00] <Ozu Reiko> Certainly.
[17:01] * Bixia Yuanjin takes Reiko's hair out of its current tied-up state and starts experimenting
[17:01] <Bixia Yuanjin> Do you like bangs or no bangs?
[17:02] <Eitak_Razal> Eh. Anything more complex the loose hair (or a pony tail) is too much work
[17:03] <Ozu Reiko> Hmm. I guess I do.
[17:03] <Ozu Reiko> I just keep them to the side to frame my face.
[17:03] * Bixia Yuanjin starts weaving things together, humming
[17:04] <Bixia Yuanjin> hee hee, bangs or no bangs.
[17:07] * Bixia Yuanjin gets a high bun going, pins it with a couple of chopsticks
[17:08] * Bixia Yuanjin weaves one braid on either side of her hair, facilitating the frame
[17:09] * @Texas_Samurai watches th' gals work as she puts th' finishin' touches on her scrapbook
[17:09] * Ozu Reiko has her eyes closed, finding this... an oddly relaxing experience
[17:11] <Bixia Yuanjin> Mmm.... pretty, but I don't think it's you.
[17:12] * Bixia Yuanjin gently weaves things loose and starts again
[17:13] * Bixia Yuanjin snaps her wrist to the side, producing a ribbon, and starts anew
[17:16] * Bixia Yuanjin goes for another loose bun, sweeping things to the side and back
[17:20] * Bixia Yuanjin judges it, undoes it again, and does it once more in a way that evaluates a combination of "I just rolled out of bed and had three minutes to do this" and "of course it only took me three minutes to do this i just look that good."
[17:21] <Ozu Reiko> Is it safe to open my eyes?
[17:21] <Bixia Yuanjin> Yes!
[17:21] * Ozu Reiko opens her eyes and... "W-wow."
[17:21] <Bixia Yuanjin> What do you think :o
[17:25] <Ozu Reiko> I like it :D
[17:27] <Bixia Yuanjin> ♫
[17:28] <Bixia Yuanjin> Feel free to mess around with it as you like, I know I'm copying it from somewhere but I don't remember where.
[17:28] * Ozu Reiko nods. She's... smiling? Wow, she's smiling and she hasn't killed anything.
[17:32] * Bixia Yuanjin claps, pleased
[17:34] <Ozu Reiko> Thank you.
[17:35] <Ozu Reiko> Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to review my data on a new Kamen Rider.
[17:35] * Ozu Reiko is away: (( Watching Fourze ))
[17:44] * Bixia Yuanjin entertains herself for a bit
[17:45] <@Texas_Samurai> How're you keepin' Miss bixia?
[17:47] <Bixia Yuanjin> M'pretty good.
[17:48] <Bixia Yuanjin> The idea that I may have a robot four times my six in the making is kind of foreboding but I'm kind of glad I didn't say "no that's dumb" when I started thinking about it.
[17:48] <Bixia Yuanjin> Six? Size. Blech.
[17:49] <@Texas_Samurai> Shoot, it ain't all that tough when y' git down t'it.
[17:51] <Bixia Yuanjin> Maybe not for humans but we won't know until I try it myself. :O
[17:51] <@Texas_Samurai> Yer th' most human book Ah know! :D
[17:52] <Bixia Yuanjin> I appreciate the thought. :) I just hope I'm close enough by structure.
[17:55] <@Texas_Samurai> There's a way to test...
[17:55] <@Texas_Samurai> Y'can try t'drive Mah STAR...?
[17:56] <Bixia Yuanjin> That's worth a shot!
[17:56] <Bixia Yuanjin> Is it far?
[17:56] <@Texas_Samurai> Won't be in a sec...
[17:56] * @Texas_Samurai calls up a number
[17:57] * there is the sound like a huge thunderclap gunshot as something is shot out of a huge cannon in Ginza
[17:57] * Bixia Yuanjin vibrates o_o
[17:57] <@Texas_Samurai> THIS lands on the front yard, tokyo side
[17:58] <@Texas_Samurai> It's here!
[17:58] <@Texas_Samurai> Rodeo☆STAR!
[17:58] <Bixia Yuanjin> :O
[17:58] * The STAR unit towers over the house by about half a floor
[17:59] <Bixia Yuanjin> Sometimes I forget how much deployment reach those things have. :O
[17:59] * @Texas_Samurai points t'th cord that y'can grab onto n' git pulled into th' c[BLEEP]kpit
[17:59] <Michael Sunnyside III> That isnt' anything, the proper 'Revolver Cannon' can shoot intercontinentally.
[18:00] <Bixia Yuanjin> Hee hee!
[18:00] * Bixia Yuanjin skips outside, nabs the cord, goes wheeeeeeeeeee
[18:00] * Bixia is pulleed into a comfy c[BLEEP]kpit with a computer screen in front of her, and lots of aawesome buttons and dials!
[18:01] <Bixia Yuanjin> so many shining things @_@
[18:01] * @Texas_Samurai gits on th' TV and switches it t'2 way
[18:01] * @Texas_Samurai epxlains how t'run things
[18:02] * Bixia Yuanjin mostly absorbs this; everything is so shiny but the general gist is gotten
[18:03] <@Texas_Samurai> Don't hit flight mode yet, y'don't wanna turn it into a jet yet XD
[18:03] <@Texas_Samurai> Go ahead n' try ' walk!
[18:03] * Bixia Yuanjin eases back, relaxes, harmonizes her heart and spirit with the machine
[18:04] * the machine definitely responds to spirit energy...
[18:04] * Bixia Yuanjin then focuses on the controls, recalling what Gemini said earlier, and the 40-foot-tall robot takes a single ponderous step forwards
[18:04] * Gauges and lights flicker to life...
[18:04] <@Texas_Samurai> Great!
[18:05] <@Texas_Samurai> Jus'... walk around a bit... see how y'feel...
[18:05] <@Texas_Samurai> If'n y'start t';feel weak, stop..
[18:05] <Bixia Yuanjin> Gotcha.
[18:06] <@Texas_Samurai> Mind, th' weapons got two modes... th' gun an' sword can work on their own without spirit power
[18:06] <@Texas_Samurai> But if y'put power into it, they can get a LOT stronger.
[18:06] <@Texas_Samurai> Btu that drains ya.
[18:07] * Bixia Yuanjin tentatively trods around in Rodeo☆STAR, as if learning to walk for the second time
[18:07] * it's cumbersome and clunky at first, but as you sync it will feel like second skin.
[18:09] * Bixia Yuanjin gains more grace as the minutes tick on, shifting to a power walk after a bit; in time, she returns to the front of the house and starts testing out the arms, experimenting with range of motion, and eventually goes through several steps of what looks like an unarmed form-style
[18:10] * @Texas_Samurai whistles...
[18:10] <Michael Sunnyside III> She's a prodigy, just like you were...
[18:11] <@Dоcтоʀ X> Gems was a prodigy?
[18:11] <Bixia Yuanjin> It's not so bad... I just have to feel it out first.
[18:11] <Michael Sunnyside III> She hardly needed any training at all.
[18:12] * Bixia Yuanjin eventually comes to a rest
[18:12] <Bixia Yuanjin> I -think- I've got it.
[18:14] <@Texas_Samurai> Daang... test passed!
[18:14] <Bixia Yuanjin> The system isn't closed, and I think I'm using more energy than I have to, but yeah, I think we have proof of concept. :D
[18:15] * @Texas_Samurai explains how she can open the c[BLEEP]kpit
[18:16] * Bixia Yuanjin pops the hatches, peeks out
[18:19] <Bixia Yuanjin> Victory!
[18:19] <Bixia Yuanjin> It will blend.
[18:19] <@Texas_Samurai> /mw gives a loud wolf-whistle
[18:19] <@Texas_Samurai> Way t'GP!
[18:19] <@Texas_Samurai> ^GO
[18:20] * Bixia Yuanjin takes a few short hops back down to the grass
[18:20] <Bixia Yuanjin> I am feeling particularly good about this plan. :D
[18:21] * @Texas_Samurai grins
[18:21] * Michael Sunnyside III has one of the Theatre staff take the Rodeo☆Star back to the hangar
[18:22] <Bixia Yuanjin> Leave it to Earth to remix all the good ideas!
[18:24] <Bixia Yuanjin> And then they come out shinier.
[18:24] <Michael Sunnyside III> :D
[18:25] <Michael Sunnyside III> "Every story has already been written; everything else is fugue"
[18:35] * Michael Sunnyside III gets a text from Ratchet

[18:35] <Bixia Yuanjin> Yay things!
[18:35] <Michael Sunnyside III> Bixia, be sure to talk to Matsumi about what kind of weapons you'll want.
[18:36] * Bixia Yuanjin nodsnods
[18:36] <Bixia Yuanjin> I can get down there now.
[18:36] <Michael Sunnyside III> We'll have the basic frame ready soon.

[20:42] <Suu> I have to admit though, Stabby made a really good drink the other night.
[20:42] <[gTV]Potamos> he didn't spike it, mitai na?
[20:51] * Matsumi Kaze drinks a ginger ale
[21:05] <Matsumi Kaze> silent night
[21:07] * @Texas_Samurai finished her Scrapbook
[21:08] <Matsumi Kaze> oh hi gems
[21:08] <@Texas_Samurai> Howdy!

[21:08] <@spiritflame> irasshai RLD_Thorn
[21:09] <Matsumi Kaze> oh hey!
[21:09] <Matsumi Kaze> Thorn, right???
[21:09] <Matsumi Kaze> you're my brother's girlfriend...
[21:09] * RLD_Thorn smiles and waves, "Heya Matsumi."
[21:09] <RLD_Thorn> Yup.
[21:09] <RLD_Thorn> I felt that since Matsuo's off on another exhibition, it was getting pretty lonely in the manor, so I felt like coming here.
[21:10] <RLD_Thorn> Band practice has been pretty lax today as well.
[21:10] <Matsumi Kaze> have you met Gemini?
[21:11] <RLD_Thorn> Gemini?
[21:11] <RLD_Thorn> I don't...think so?
[21:12] <@Texas_Samurai> Howdy! Mah name's Gemini Sunrise :D
[21:12] <RLD_Thorn> I've met so many people I tend to forget who I've met
[21:12] * @Texas_Samurai offers a hand
[21:12] <RLD_Thorn> Hello Gemini! It's nice to meet you.
[21:12] * RLD_Thorn takes her hand and shakes it.
[21:13] * @Texas_Samurai shakes back firm.
[21:13] <@Texas_Samurai> Ah made some pizza, wouldya like some?
[21:14] <Matsumi Kaze> what..kind
[21:14] <RLD_Thorn> Mmm pizza.
[21:14] <RLD_Thorn> Vegetarian, I hope?
[21:14] <RLD_Thorn> I mean, i like meat as much as the next person, but I've got to take care of my figure, you know?
[21:15] <RLD_Thorn> (( Which I think is' pretty funny since she's gonna eat pizza ))
[21:15] <@Texas_Samurai> Yup, Ah gots some, mah fella's a Vegetarian too.
[21:15] * @Texas_Samurai shares out some
[21:16] <RLD_Thorn> Your fella?
[21:16] * RLD_Thorn takes two slices because she's particularly hungry.
[21:17] <RLD_Thorn> What's he like?
[21:17] * Matsumi Kaze eats a slice of pizza
[21:17] * RLD_Thorn starts eating, her favorite part of any slice of pizza is the corner tip part.
[21:18] * @Texas_Samurai wonders how t'put this
[21:18] <@Texas_Samurai> A walkin' dictionary with a big heart. Well, two of 'em.
[21:19] * RLD_Thorn coughs, choking on a bite for a second.
[21:19] <RLD_Thorn> T-two..hearts?
[21:19] <@Texas_Samurai> Yup.
[21:20] * RLD_Thorn continues eating.
[21:20] <RLD_Thorn> Wahs he born deformed?
[21:20] * RLD_Thorn swallos.
[21:20] <RLD_Thorn> I don't mean to be offensive, I'm sorry.
[21:20] <@Texas_Samurai> Hey now, Ah was born with two as well :P
[21:20] <@Texas_Samurai> No, he's an alien.
[21:21] <@Texas_Samurai> Ah was suppos't'be twins.
[21:21] <RLD_Thorn> Oh..
[21:21] <RLD_Thorn> I'm...sorry for your loss?
[21:21] * RLD_Thorn blushes, embarrassed.
[21:21] <RLD_Thorn> I'm so sorry, I'm just making a hash of things aren't I?
[21:21] <@Texas_Samurai> It's okay...
[21:22] <@Texas_Samurai> How's th' food?
[21:22] <RLD_Thorn> It's delicious!!
[21:23] * RLD_Thorn coughs and sets down her unfinished crust.
[21:23] <RLD_Thorn> Did you make it yourself, did you say?
[21:23] <@Texas_Samurai> Yup!
[21:23] * Matsumi Kaze eats another slice
[21:24] <RLD_Thorn> You're very good.
[21:24] <RLD_Thorn> Are you going to culinary school? Or something?
[21:25] * RLD_Thorn picks up her second slice and starts eating it a bit slower than the first one.
[21:25] <@Texas_Samurai> Nope! Ah just learned from some chefs in New York a while back.
[21:26] <Matsumi Kaze> she's definatly good with steak
[21:27] <RLD_Thorn> Ah, you've been to New York too?
[21:27] <RLD_Thorn> It's such a big city...
[21:27] * RLD_Thorn is all dreamy eyed.
[21:27] <@Texas_Samurai> Yup! Lived there fer a lotta years
[21:27] <RLD_Thorn> Oh wow, really??
[21:27] <RLD_Thorn> I've only ever visited.
[21:28] <Matsumi Kaze> Gemini works at the theatre...she's quite the actress
[21:28] <RLD_Thorn> I've played at the Garden a couple of times, though.
[21:28] <@Texas_Samurai> Shoot, stop tootin' mah horn XD
[21:29] * @Texas_Samurai blushes
[21:29] <RLD_Thorn> Theater?
[21:29] <RLD_Thorn> Which one again?
[21:30] <Matsumi Kaze> New Grand Imperial Theatre
[21:30] <Matsumi Kaze> do you really want me to toot your horn, gems *waggles eyebrows*
[21:30] <RLD_Thorn> Oh.
[21:30] <RLD_Thorn> An actress, huh?
[21:30] <RLD_Thorn> I hear that stage acting is a lot harder than movie and tv acting.
[21:30] * RLD_Thorn snickers quietly.
[21:30] <RLD_Thorn> My friend Kaifuu once told me how she demanded to go on stage and play Lady Macbeth
[21:31] <RLD_Thorn> She was so nervous, since she was used to television acting, and the theater was packed
