welcome to #suburbansenshi2

[01:04] <Newborn Lich> Mind if I ask you something? How did you plan to escape paying for the deeds you committed?
[01:04] <Hazel Ninegate> 1
[01:04] <Hazel Ninegate> Escape?
[01:04] <Newborn Lich> Yes.
[01:04] * Hazel Ninegate frowns
[01:04] <Aspirant Snark> I claim this log in the name of Prometheus!
[01:04] <Hazel Ninegate> I just figured I'd kill anyone trying to stop me.
[01:05] * Newborn Lich shakes his head, sadly.
[01:05] <Newborn Lich> There's always somebody stronger.
[01:05] <Newborn Lich> You are probably aware of that, now.
[01:05] <Hazel Ninegate> Well at that point I'd die.
[01:05] <Newborn Lich> So what do you plan to do now?
[01:05] <Hazel Ninegate> And it would be irrelevant.
[01:05] <Hazel Ninegate> Stronger than me?
[01:05] <Newborn Lich> I suppose damnation works very differently from where you grow up.
[01:05] <Hazel Ninegate> They got a lucky shot.
[01:05] <Newborn Lich> Yes.
[01:06] <Newborn Lich> Yes. They did.
[01:06] <Hazel Ninegate> I don't deny they are stronger ones
[01:06] <Newborn Lich> But that's not really the point.
[01:06] <Hazel Ninegate> ^there are.
[01:06] <Newborn Lich> Ah. So you don't deny it.
[01:06] <Newborn Lich> You know. I'm not the only Lich here?
[01:06] <Newborn Lich> There's another one.
[01:06] <Hazel Ninegate> Oh?
[01:06] <Newborn Lich> She actually DARED to try to stop my apotheosis?
[01:06] <Newborn Lich> The nerve!
[01:07] <Newborn Lich> Well, it does not matter, she'll be dead soon, because she does not understand what we do.
[01:07] <Hazel Ninegate> Who was this Lich?
[01:07] <Newborn Lich> Do you know about the Elf?
[01:07] <Hazel Ninegate> Elf?
[01:07] <Newborn Lich> Loves to shoot people to prove his point? Huge d[BLEEP]k? Really condescending?
[01:07] <Hazel Ninegate> I barely paid attentuon to those beings.
[01:07] <Newborn Lich> Well. It was his sister.
[01:07] <Hazel Ninegate> Ahh. Ants.
[01:07] <Newborn Lich> Well, you should usually pay attention to most elves, because they know more than they look at.
[01:08] <Newborn Lich> The really humorous thing about it is?
[01:08] <Newborn Lich> She was a half-elf. Apparently being of impure blood is a major societal problem for their culture.
[01:08] <Newborn Lich> So he ragged her and berated her, and condemned her, and insulted her.... and then she became a lich and killed him for it, and made him her slave.
[01:08] <Newborn Lich> It has a nice little poetic ring to it, doesn't it?
[01:08] * Newborn Lich snickers.
[01:09] <Hazel Ninegate> Yes.
[01:09] <Newborn Lich> So here's the REALLY great part.
[01:09] <Newborn Lich> As soon as he gets back to life, he starts ragging on me for being undead.
[01:09] <Newborn Lich> Think about that. Now that he's more vulnerable to me than ever before, he starts ragging on ME.
[01:09] <Newborn Lich> Kind of makes you want to kill him and make him your slave for not learning his lesson, no?
[01:10] <Newborn Lich> >.>
[01:10] <Hazel Ninegate> Yes!
[01:10] <Hazel Ninegate> I say go for it.
[01:10] <Newborn Lich> Sometimes, I think that his pointed ears greatly exacerbate his condition.
[01:10] <Hazel Ninegate> Teach those sniveling rodents a lesson.
[01:10] <Newborn Lich> Well. He seems dead set to fight his sister.
[01:10] <Newborn Lich> And she dead set to fight him. Literally, most likely.
[01:10] <Newborn Lich> He even revealed where her weakness was.
[01:11] <Hazel Ninegate> Then let them kill each other odd.
[01:11] <Hazel Ninegate> ^off.
[01:11] <Newborn Lich> I say let them fight. I mean, now that Mormeril shadesong is alive again, this is a huge improvement! This means he'll DIE.
[01:11] <Newborn Lich> One way or another.
[01:11] <Newborn Lich> He keeps on going on and on about how rotten I am, and blah blah blah a corpse.
[01:11] <Hazel Ninegate> Counterpoint:
[01:12] <Hazel Ninegate> He was dead before, and kept on being annoying.
[01:12] <Hazel Ninegate> You need to be sure he dies properly this time.
[01:12] <Newborn Lich> I will try soo hard not to remind him of this when he is arthritic and feeble, and is covered in sores and terminally ill. When his hair falls out and his joints shake. Then we'll see.
[01:13] * Matsumi Kaze yawns, petting Freya
[01:13] * Newborn Lich looks at Hazel Ninegate.
[01:13] *** Hazel Ninegate is



More information about her is Here.
Her image Song is: .
[01:13] <Newborn Lich> I like the ribbon, by the way.
[01:13] <Newborn Lich> Anyway, do you want to hear the most hilariously naive thing I've heard in all your absence, and indeed in all my time here?
[01:14] <Hazel Ninegate> Yes.
[01:14] * Thrash puts the radio on the table
[01:14] * Newborn Lich snickers, and tries to remember.
[01:15] <Newborn Lich> Alright, alright. It might take me a moment to tell it right.
[01:15] <Newborn Lich> Somebody said to me....
[01:15] * Newborn Lich breaks out laughing.
[01:15] <Newborn Lich> Somebody said to me that "goodness and righteousness will always conquer your kind of power."
[01:15] * Hazel Ninegate snorts
[01:15] <Newborn Lich> Unfortunately, I was somewhere I could not just break out laughing.
[01:16] <Hazel Ninegate> It's not the goodness and righteousness.
[01:16] <Hazel Ninegate> It's the zealts with power who adhere to those codes.
[01:16] <Newborn Lich> I thought you would like that. Soome people just don't understand the concept of Power. The more powerful force wins, and it's not really partial to whether the end agrees with the values you were taught when growing up. Power is power. Nothing more.
[01:16] <Hazel Ninegate> Yes.
[01:17] * Newborn Lich mouths the words again, more exaggerated and whiney this time. "...will always beat your kind of power!"
[01:18] *** Thrash has left #suburbansenshi2
[01:18] * Hazel Ninegate laughs heartily
[01:18] <Matsumi Kaze> ....
[01:18] * Matsumi Kaze sends a text to Jack Harkness...asking for a favor
[01:19] <Newborn Lich> Hey, how goes things, Matsumi?
[01:19] * Captain Jack Harkness texts back with difficuly
[01:19] * Newborn Lich walks away from Hazel, and over to Matsumi Kaze.
[01:20] <Newborn Lich> Sooo, you ready? She's coming, you know.
[01:21] <Hazel Ninegate> Who
[01:21] * Matsumi Kaze texts a few words "can you plant fake memories...."
[01:22] * Captain Jack Harkness texts back "Nori gave you a botle of Retcon
[01:22] <Newborn Lich> Matsumi? Are you there?
[01:22] <Matsumi Kaze> yes?
[01:23] <Newborn Lich> Are you ready, I said? She'll be coming soon.
[01:23] <Newborn Lich> She's going to be pissed when she comes for him.
[01:23] <Newborn Lich> I hope you'll finally kill her this time.
[01:23] <Matsumi Kaze> who will be coming
[01:23] <Newborn Lich> My.... lookalike?
[01:24] <Newborn Lich> The person that Mormeril continually talks down to, and provokes toward killing him?
[01:24] <Newborn Lich> Sorry. I guess I should be more specific. He does that to everybody.
[01:25] <Matsumi Kaze> your lookalike? who?
[01:27] <Hazel Ninegate> Make sense.
[01:28] * Newborn Lich shrugs his head, "Nevermind."
[01:29] <Newborn Lich> So who are you talking to there, Matsumi?
[01:29] * Matsumi Kaze texts to Jack "how many people..can this affect"
[01:30] <Matsumi Kaze> talking to Jack Harkness
[01:30] <Newborn Lich> Never heard of the guy.
[01:30] <Newborn Lich> Oh well.
[01:31] * Captain Jack Harkness epxlains with a lot o typos it can affect as many people as you want but you need a way to overlay the new cover story onto them
[01:31] <Matsumi Kaze> oh geez....
[01:31] <Matsumi Kaze> ...how the hell am I going to do that
[01:32] <Newborn Lich> Do what?
[01:32] <Newborn Lich> Were you saying something?
[01:32] * Captain Jack Harkness texts he will help you out tomororw, the twins are letting him use the phone naymore
[01:33] * @mango-chan lounges
[01:34] * Matsumi Kaze texts a thanks and that she owes him
[01:34] <Newborn Lich> Well, I'm going back out to watch the tide fill that giant hole in the sand.
[01:35] <Newborn Lich> Wonder what caused it?
[01:35] <Hazel Ninegate> Ta~
[01:35] * Newborn Lich heads outside.
[01:35] * Newborn Lich waves. "Later."
[01:35] *** Newborn Lich has quit IRC (Why should I fear you, anyone, or anything, now that I have achieved this?)
[01:36] <@mango-chan> I think I want to hang up that nice dress
[01:39] * Matsumi Kaze opens up a ginger ale and drinks
[01:42] <@mango-chan> And I'll wear it again!
[01:42] <@mango-chan> For another nice formal event.
[01:42] <@Dоcтоʀ Xᴧᴅוυᴍ> Be glad I din't have to use m yplan to ge tNoriko into the chamber...
[01:43] <@mango-chan> Wha?
[01:43] <@Dоcтоʀ Xᴧᴅוυᴍ> Let's just say it involved you straddling my stomach and Noriko falling out of your dress.
[01:43] <@mango-chan> ...
[01:44] * @mango-chan looks horrified
[01:44] <@mango-chan> But Gemini would kill me!
[01:44] <@Dоcтоʀ Xᴧᴅוυᴍ> .....
[01:44] <@Dоcтоʀ Xᴧᴅוυᴍ> She'dkilll us both.
[01:45] * Matsumi Kaze LAUGHS
[01:45] <@mango-chan> D:
[01:45] <Matsumi Kaze> sorry sorry
[01:45] <Matsumi Kaze> the imagry that went with that
[01:45] <Matsumi Kaze> too funny
[01:45] <@mango-chan> Besides!
[01:45] <@mango-chan> I'm not really into that....
[01:46] <@mango-chan> or I'm not really into you!
[01:46] <@Dоcтоʀ Xᴧᴅוυᴍ> Likewise :P
[01:46] <@mango-chan> Sorry, Xadium! You're just not my type.
[01:46] <@mango-chan> But we can be friends!
[01:46] * @mango-chan offers a fist bump
[01:46] <@Dоcтоʀ Xᴧᴅוυᴍ> But it would have created a shadow and thus an exit for noriko.
[01:46] <Matsumi Kaze> have to buy some plane tickets tomorrow
[01:46] * @Doctor Xadium fistbumps!
[01:46] <@Dоcтоʀ Xᴧᴅוυᴍ> Friends!
[01:47] <@mango-chan> That makes sense...!
[01:48] <@mango-chan> Yes!
[01:49] <Hazel Ninegate> Awwwwh~
[01:49] <Hazel Ninegate> How cute.
[01:49] <Hazel Ninegate> Suthers don't get it, does he.
[01:49] <@mango-chan> To friendship!
[01:49] <@mango-chan> Get what?
[01:49] * Joanna Smithson is back
[01:49] <Hazel Ninegate> By exposing his children to the Internet...
[01:49] <@mango-chan> Oh
[01:49] <Hazel Ninegate> he's opened them up to anything.
[01:49] <@mango-chan> They're going to find the gutters of the internet
[01:49] * Joanna Smithson comes out of the elevator "hey matsumi?...your husband won't stop staring at me and it's getting creepy..."
[01:49] <@mango-chan> And suddenly lolcats will come up
[01:50] <Matsumi Kaze> ..what are you doing still up
[01:50] <@mango-chan> on everyone's computers
[01:50] <@mango-chan> "LOOK!"
[01:50] <Hazel Ninegate> Yes.. LOLcats.
[01:50] <Joanna Smithson> can't sleep
[01:50] <@mango-chan> "AREN'T THESE FUNNY?"
[01:50] <@mango-chan> "YES. STARE AT THESE"
[01:50] <@mango-chan> Why what were you thinking?
[01:51] <Hazel Ninegate> You're a strange one.
[01:51] <Joanna Smithson> also..I really don't want to sleep on the floor...
[01:51] <Matsumi Kaze> but I have no other room...

[01:53] * Lucy scurries back to the elevator
[01:53] *** Lucy has left #suburbansenshi2
[01:53] <Joanna Smithson> hi there
[01:53] * Joanna Smithson and Matsumi Kaze smile to wolf "how are you tonight"
[01:54] <@Wolf> Tired and cranky but in good spirits
[01:54] <Joanna Smithson> that's good I suppose
[01:54] <Matsumi Kaze> yeah true enough

[02:10] <Matsumi Kaze> ...
[02:10] <Matsumi Kaze> ok
[02:10] <Matsumi Kaze> why does my life keep taking strange turns like this
[02:10] <@mango-chan> That's harder when you're not gagged or under water
[02:10] <@mango-chan> Because you're Matsumi Kaze!
[02:10] <Matsumi Kaze> <.<
[02:10] <@mango-chan> Your life has to always be weird!
[02:10] <Matsumi Kaze> feels like it
[02:10] <Matsumi Kaze> now I have a clone sister...
[02:11] <@Wolf> You are a senshi. I thought this was like...the norm for you people
[02:11] <@mango-chan> You're just not you if you're not having strange things happen
[02:11] <Indigo> Some of us live out normal lives you know
[02:11] *** Indigo [magmaqueen@snowyfields.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[02:11] <@spiritflame> irasshai Indigo
[02:12] <Indigo> There's a few around here who have gone under the radar
[02:12] <Indigo> And likely still will
[02:12] <@Wolf> Well hello to you too.
[02:13] * Indigo just walks on past Wolf and brushes a strand of hair off her shoulder
[02:13] <Indigo> There's a vending machine in here isn't there?
[02:13] * Xadium's Coke Machine TARDIS is back
[02:13] <Indigo> I've been having a hankering for a dark pepsi
[02:14] * Indigo moseys over to the TARDIS and puts her fingers under her chin
[02:14] <Indigo> Do I need to put money in you to get what I want
[02:14] <Indigo> or will you just give me it?
[02:14] * The TARDIS pops out a Dark Pepsi
[02:14] * Indigo takes it.
[02:14] <Indigo> Thank you.
[02:14] * Indigo pats the TARDIS
[02:15] * The TADIS seems to hum a bit louder
[02:15] * Indigo opens the pepsi and proceeds to drink.
[02:15] <Indigo> You're not going to start rocking, are you?
[02:15] * there ar eno divots on the floor near the TARDIS. It's clra tthe rocking TARDIS Days are long over
[02:16] <Indigo> Huh.
[02:16] <Indigo> Things really do change.
[02:17] <@Wolf> unfortunetly
[02:17] * @Wolf sighs
[02:18] <Matsumi Kaze> nothing stays the same
[02:19] <Matsumi Kaze> ..which reminds me I need to schedule a meeting tomorrow to hand out new scripts
[02:19] <Indigo> How is that unfortunate?
[02:21] <Indigo> Change is often for the better.
[02:21] <Indigo> That's how we grow.
[02:22] <@Wolf> I just hate seeing everything around me age.
[02:22] <@Wolf> I wish I could too.
[02:22] <Indigo> You have plenty who don't
[02:23] <Matsumi Kaze> I stopped aging a couple years ago
[02:23] <Indigo> I am certain there is a way to grant that wish
[02:24] <@Wolf> There is and ii'm working towards it.
[02:24] <@Wolf> But it takes time.
[02:25] <Indigo> Interesting to see someone reject immortality
[02:26] <Indigo> Considering so many strive for it.
[02:27] <@Wolf> I grow weary of immortality.
[02:27] <@Wolf> I want to have children and grow old with my wife.
[02:27] <@Wolf> Nothing more.
[02:28] <Indigo> So then it"s love that sours you...
[02:29] <@Wolf> Among many things, yes.
[02:29] <Indigo> It's a common weakness
[02:31] <@Wolf> I simply desire to be...human
[02:32] <Indigo> I want to say that I have let that one go but I suspect I would be speaking far too soon
[02:32] <Indigo> Especially since.
[02:33] <Indigo> Right. You are a demon
[02:33] <Indigo> Something that just looks humam
[02:33] <Indigo> human
[02:34] <@Wolf> Alien.
[02:34] <@Wolf> But yes, perhapse you are right.
[02:34] <Indigo> Those are in abundance
[02:35] <Indigo> Especially as pf late
[02:36] <@Wolf> It would seem.
[02:37] <@Wolf> You know. You may hate me. But I miss talking to you.

[03:00] <@Ryan> it's a loliiiiiiii
[03:00] <Bixia Yuanjin> Hihi!
[03:01] <Bixia Yuanjin> Did things turn out okay with that Prometheus thing? Or do you know?
[03:01] <@Ryan> my good buddy shinji was there
[03:01] <@Ryan> and all he told me that there was some revelation of some super computer
[03:01] <@Ryan> nothing exciting
[03:01] <Bixia Yuanjin> Oh okay.
[03:02] * Bixia Yuanjin twirls the vial on a loop around a finger
[03:02] <@Ryan> i am disappoint there was no action involved
[03:02] <@Ryan> those pansies must be getting old
[03:02] <Bixia Yuanjin> I'm surprised!
[03:04] <Bixia Yuanjin> Buuuuuuuut
[03:04] <Bixia Yuanjin> I guess I'm not really surprised after all.
[03:05] <Bixia Yuanjin> They had their big event...
[03:05] <Bixia Yuanjin> I had mine. >:3
[03:07] * Bixia Yuanjin loops the cord around her neck, tucks the vial down her shirt
[03:07] <@Ryan> do tell
[03:08] <Bixia Yuanjin> So do you know about someone named Duelman?
[03:10] <@Ryan> yea i do
[03:11] <Bixia Yuanjin> Apparently he's back and he built a shack on top of the Hotel.
[03:11] <@Ryan> oh ho
[03:12] <Bixia Yuanjin> But when he first came out Chibiusa was right there to leap on him, and then they filled a soundproof dome.
[03:12] <Bixia Yuanjin> With semen.
[03:13] <Bixia Yuanjin> It was... really, some of the most concentrated male-aspected spiritual energy I've ever seen.
[03:14] <@Ryan> then what happened
[03:15] <Bixia Yuanjin> So, because I have knowledge of sexual alchemy written into my bones and body, and it was still active outside of his body, I decided I was going to go distill and harvest some of it.
[03:15] <Bixia Yuanjin> It took me hours and it fought me all the way, but I did it. >:)
[03:16] <@Ryan> there's so many things that could be said right now
[03:16] <@Ryan> but i'll just give a look
[03:16] <@Ryan> >:D
[03:17] <Bixia Yuanjin> Female balances male balances female, so it'll work for a power boost in... well, maybe dire emergencies.
[03:17] <Bixia Yuanjin> If I really need to do something terrible to somebody right then and there.
[03:20] <Bixia Yuanjin> So, if the world didn't start ending tonight, I'm going to call it time well spent! :D
[03:21] <@Ryan> Hah!
[03:50] <Bixia Yuanjin> It's like sitting on my own horrible unruly weapon.
[03:51] <Bixia Yuanjin> Warm, next to me, and utterly relentless.
[03:55] <@Ryan> boing
[03:59] <Bixia Yuanjin> Pretty much. :)
[04:02] * A news bulletin appears on Rantsom TV
[04:02] * Tony Stark appears on the Screen
[04:03] <Bixia Yuanjin> ?
[04:03] <@Ryan> Oh man
[04:04] <Tony Stark> Hi there, this is uhh, Tony Stark. You might recognize me from things like Television, People magazine, and oh, that Intergalactic Invasion Brouhaha from earlier this year. Oh, and the Iron Man thing.
[04:05] <Tony Stark> But tonight, I'm coming to you as C.E.O. Of Stark Industries.
[04:05] <Bixia Yuanjin> What's the Iron Man thing?
[04:06] <@Ryan> Y'know. He's Iron Man and all.
[04:06] <Tony Stark> It's come to my attention that New Horizons Energy, Inc., a Japan-based corporation making some fairly audacious claims about Solar Power technology, has been broadcasting footage of Stark Industry Management at the conference.
[04:06] <Bixia Yuanjin> What's that mean? .-.
[04:07] <@Ryan> You've never heard of Iron Man?
[04:07] <Bixia Yuanjin> Not as like an individual thing, no...
[04:08] <Bixia Yuanjin> He looks Amerika-jin.
[04:08] <Tony Stark> Stark Industries is interested in any and all energy technologies that will improve the quality of life on Earth. Our execs were there to do market research, and analyze the technology.
[04:08] <@Ryan> Iron Man is one of those new heroes that debuted a few years ago. He looks American because he is.
[04:08] <Tony Stark> So far, by their own admission, New Horzons tech is 88% researched. That's a far way from 100%.
[04:08] <@Ryan> Guess you don't keep up much with superhumans from other countries.
[04:09] <Tony Stark> As of this time, I'm announcing that Stark Industries is still 100% behind our own "Arc Reactor" technology, already in use at several of our facilities around the globe, and we have no intention of investing in New Horizons' technology.
[04:09] <Tony Stark> Thank you, and goodnight.
[04:10] <Bixia Yuanjin> Nnnnnnot really. Everyone I really personally care about lives here.
[04:10] * Tony Stark steps away from the podium
[04:11] <@Ryan> Ah.
[04:11] <@Ryan> Interesting announcement there.
[04:11] <Newscaster> An oddly-timed announcement from C.E.O Stark, to be sure.
[04:12] <@Ryan> Time to invest in Stark Industries!

[04:23] <Hazel Ninegate> Good evening. My name is Hazel Ninegate, Vice-President and acting C.E.O of Mizunomics Corporation.
[04:23] <Bixia Yuanjin> ....wait.
[04:23] * @Ryan pays attention to the television
[04:23] * Hazel Ninegate smiles brightly at the screen.
[04:23] <Bixia Yuanjin> She's supposed to be dead.
[04:24] <Adair> No one stays dead for long around here it seems
[04:24] *** Adair [adair-hime@egae.gov] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[04:24] <@spiritflame> irasshai Adair
[04:24] <Hazel Ninegate> I have an announcement to make that is vital to the future of you all.
[04:25] <@Ryan> I saw her earlier tonight.
[04:25] * Bixia Yuanjin frowny frown-frowns
[04:25] <Hazel Ninegate> for some weeks now, we here at Mizunomics, in conjunction with Kaspersky Labs and Symantec Corporation, have been tracking an insidious virus known simply as "Prometheus 1"
[04:27] <Hazel Ninegate> The formal name for it is W.32 Suthers, and it's an extremely aggressive virus that infiltrates all computer systems and seeks information, establishing command and control nodes on any infected systems, making them part of a larger "botnet".
[04:27] <The Actuary> ...
[04:27] <The Actuary> What's she doing. That's a flat out lie.
[04:28] * Bixia Yuanjin looks at The Actuary.
[04:28] *** The Actuary is



More information about her is Here.
Her image Song is: 'Seven Nation Army (Retaliation Mix)' by The White Stripes.
[04:28] * Bixia Yuanjin notes the change with some trepidation
[04:28] <Hazel Ninegate> As of right now, the origins of W32.Suthers is unknown, but we suspect a hightly organized state actor such as Iran, Russia or China.
[04:29] <Hazel Ninegate> Mizzunomics and Cisco Networking hardware makes up over 90% of the Internet Backbone, and obviously, our equipment is being used to propagate these malicious attacks.
[04:30] <@Ryan> Oh ho ho. What a plotting little thing she is.
[04:30] <Hazel Ninegate> So, Jointly, tonight, we are announcing to the world free firmware upgrades for all our equipment which will filter and block W32.Suthers entirely.
[04:31] <Hazel Ninegate> Corporate customers will have the upgrade pushed immediately. You may experience internet dropoffs as your units power cycle, this is normal.
[04:31] <Hazel Ninegate> Home users will be able to download a patch for free at http://www.mizunomics.co.jp/stopsuthers
[04:32] <Hazel Ninegate> All Tech Support lines will be fully staffed and taking calls to assist you with the upgrade. Please do not delay, it's neccessary to protect your vital personal information and prevent unscrupulous criminals from using your internet connections to commit crimes.
[04:33] * Hazel Ninegate smiles
[04:33] <Hazel Ninegate> Thank you for your time, and goodnight.
[04:33] * Hazel Ninegate steps away from the camera as the scene turns back to the Rantsom TV studios
[04:34] <Adair> hmmmm
[04:34] // GINGA net.news FLASH // · · Machines worldwide receiving firmware upgrades due to mass infection of W32.Suthers virus-- one so insidious other researchers have been unable to detect it. · ·
[04:34] <The Actuary> ..............................
[04:35] <Bixia Yuanjin> So... there's no Suthers virus?
[04:35] <The Actuary> I can't tell if that's genius or madness.
[04:36] <The Actuary> She's used it as a pretext to upgrade most of the machines on the planet, presumably to block his "sons".
[04:36] <The Actuary> I'm sure, knowing her, by tomorrow a legitimate virus will appear.
[04:36] <The Actuary> But how did she get to be in charge of Mizumonics...
[04:36] <Adair> Well, we'll see if her firmware works
[04:37] * The Actuary downloads a copy and sits at a computer terminal
[04:37] * The Actuary decompiles it and studies the code
[04:38] <@Ryan> If you find anything interesting, share.
[04:38] <The Actuary> Hmm.
[04:38] <Bixia Yuanjin> What happened to Mizuno-san D:
[04:39] <The Actuary> ...this is interesting.
[04:40] <The Actuary> She's multilayered this code to hid what it really is, manipulating the electricity of the running computers to create specific quantum effects.
[04:40] <The Actuary> She's created a living.... electronic firewall.
[04:40] <@Ryan> Curious.

[04:51] * Hazel Ninegate leans forward across the bar locking gazes with Actuary
[04:51] <Hazel Ninegate> - He Tried to kill me. -
[04:52] <@Ryan> I guess she takes things very personal.
[04:52] * The Actuary smiles sweetly. "I'm fairly sure this has happened to you before."
[04:52] <Hazel Ninegate> Not. Like. This.
[04:53] <Hazel Ninegate> Not while I had my hand out, in friendship.

[10:59] <[gTV]Potamos> Sorry, mitai na!
[10:59] * Potamos looks at Joanna Smithson.

[11:00] <[gTV]Potamos> What the hell, mitai na?
[11:01] <Joanna Smithson> hm? what's that?
[11:02] <[gTV]Potamos> That event I was invited to last night...now people are thinking it's a computer virus?
[11:02] <The Actuary> It's Ninegate.
[11:03] <The Actuary> Suthers crossed her, and now she's going against him fully.
[11:03] <The Actuary> For what it's worth the "Vengeance 1" patch works, and works well.

[11:03] * Joanna Smithson keeps eating
[11:04] * Joanna Smithson drinks some coffee
[11:04] <The Actuary> I've secured the Hotel and the Theatre.
[11:04] <Solarchos> Noriko? What happened last night? I've been scanning the logs.
[11:04] <The Actuary> And UNIT has secired its installations, and is forcing the patch on all government institutions.
[11:04] <The Actuary> Hmm.
[11:05] * Solarchos goes up to Noriko.
[11:05] <The Actuary> In sum: Suthers revealed his project: Nothing more than powerful Artificially Intelligent Computers whom he has unleashed upon the Internet.
[11:05] <Solarchos> Are you all right? I understand you got hurt pretty badly in the process.
[11:06] <Joanna Smithson> these pancakes are really good
[11:06] <The Actuary> This prompted Torchwood to panic, reviving quite possibly the worst person they probably could. I ended up having to use one of MY lives to make it happen.
[11:06] <Solarchos> I was going to ask if I need to unleash orbital bombardment, but I suspect you'll tell me not to bother.
[11:06] <Solarchos> Hazel Ninegate.
[11:06] <The Actuary> She then tried to help Suthers, which he replied to by trying to murder her.
[11:06] <The Actuary> This set her off.
[11:07] * Solarchos just listens for now.
[11:07] <The Actuary> So she's taken over Mizunomics, and used it to push out a worlwide patch to firewall computers from Suthers' sons.
[11:08] <[gTV]Potamos> Taken over....
[11:09] <[gTV]Potamos> How could she have done that so fast mitai na?
[11:09] <Solarchos> Do I need to mobilize a crusade-level force to assist you?
[11:09] <The Actuary> I don't know, Potamos. I'm actually hesitant to think about how.
[11:09] <[gTV]Potamos> I haven't heard any news about how they're in trouble or having a merger or anything...
[11:09] <Solarchos> If everything I've heard about Ninegate is true, Potamos, she could have done so quite easily.
[11:10] <The Actuary> ...Solarchos.
[11:10] <[gTV]Potamos> ...
[11:10] * The Actuary regards him, remembering Ryan's words to her.
[11:10] <Solarchos> She could have usurped control of Ami's computers in an instant, rewrote the master control programs, and locked Ami out.
[11:10] <The Actuary> I.... need your help.
[11:10] * Joanna Smithson finishes her coffee
[11:10] * The Actuary almost forces those words out.
[11:10] * [gTV]Potamos calls Jack and asks him if he's heard the news
[11:10] <Solarchos> I'm listening, Noriko.
[11:11] * Mister Dinsdale answers groggily, and you hear sounds like he's just fallen off his chair, having slept at hsi desk
[11:11] <The Actuary> What kind of AI tech do you have at your disposal?
[11:12] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ Ow my head. Yeah I heard
[11:13] <Solarchos> A fair bit actually. In the Gurhal system there's a whole race of AI androids known as the CAST who are part of the Federation. The Abh also make use of a great deal of AI control systems on their ships. Our Imperium-based vessels, however, make virtually NO use of AI systems.
[11:13] <The Actuary> I figured the Imperium might not...
[11:13] <The Actuary> Suthers has created a few high grade AIs.
[11:13] <Solarchos> The Imperium is phobic about artificial intelligence, so almost all of their stuff is based on manual technology. What do you need?
[11:13] <[gTV]Potamos> How well do you know the people at Mizunomics, Jack-kun?
[11:13] <The Actuary> I think we need a few of our own
[11:14] <Joanna Smithson> is there any way I can help?....
[11:14] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ Not well at all, other than some guys in the programming departments. I can start making inquiries.
[11:14] <Solarchos> I'll contact the Frybar and Paryun. I'll have a response for you in a day or so.
[11:15] <The Actuary> Thank you.
[11:15] <Solarchos> Is there anything else I can do to help you?
[11:15] <[gTV]Potamos> I've got a bad feeling about how FAST things happened, mitai na
[11:15] <Solarchos> Potamos, this is Ninegate we're talking about.
[11:15] <Joanna Smithson> anything the clone can do?
[11:16] * The Actuary puts her hands on Jopanna's shoulders
[11:16] <The Actuary> You're your own person.
[11:16] <The Actuary> Right now, just settle into your life.
[11:16] <Solarchos> Potamos, remember how everyone used to make fun of how "paranoid" I can be? Or how Noriko wanted to "punish" me for ever dissing the Time Lords in general?
[11:17] <The Actuary> Heh.
[11:17] <Solarchos> Ninegate sounds like she's literally everything I came to distrust and be wary about Time Lords.
[11:17] * [gTV]Potamos nods
[11:17] <[gTV]Potamos> I am talking to Jack...
[11:17] <[gTV]Potamos> He's going to try asking around at Mizunomics, mitai na
[11:17] <Solarchos> Too much power, too little restraint, and immoral to the extreme.
[11:18] <The Actuary> Solarchos. Ninegate? She's everything you accused me of. I really... wouldn't get in her face. At all.
[11:18] <Solarchos> Also Noriko...why did you seem so hesitant to ask me for help?
[11:18] <The Actuary> I'm not used to asking for help. From anyone.
[11:18] <Solarchos> Me especially?
[11:19] <The Actuary> Well, if you still have the same attitude you did back when we would have our famous arguments.
[11:19] <The Actuary> I simply talked down to you...
[11:19] <The Actuary> She... well she's a racist.
[11:19] <Solarchos> WOrse than DeVenger?
[11:19] <The Actuary> She may actually decide to do something.
[11:19] <The Actuary> DeVenger was a clone of her... and much mellower by comparioson.
[11:20] <Joanna Smithson> wh..what do we do
[11:20] <Solarchos> Reading the files, it sounded more like Ninegate's a Istvaanian.
[11:20] <The Actuary> That sounds about right.
[11:20] <The Actuary> But... she's become unhinged.
[11:21] <The Actuary> So it's not about testing anymore.
[11:21] <The Actuary> It's about... revenge.
[11:21] <Solarchos> You want me to stay clear for my own protection then.
[11:21] * [gTV]Potamos decides a call to Mina-chan might be in order
[11:21] * [gTV]Potamos dials Minako's number
[11:21] <Solarchos> Revenge against who though? You? Suthers? Sakura?
[11:22] * Mister Dinsdale is away: shower, than investigating
[11:22] <The Actuary> Whoever gets in her way
[11:22] <[gTV]C'est_la_V> ♦ Moshii Moshii!!!

[11:24] <The Actuary> Good morning, Matsumi
[11:24] <Solarchos> And after that?
[11:24] <Matsumi Kaze> so I hear we're in some trouble

[11:25] <[gTV]Potamos> What's going on at Mizunomics, mitai na?
[11:26] <[gTV]C'est_la_V> ♦ I don't...I don't know... I can't reach Ami-chan at all
[11:26] <Solarchos> But Noriko, you've probably figured out by now that my old attitudes have long since changed.

[11:33] * @RiderHeroProject downs more coffee
[11:33] <Solarchos> As for being afraid...Noriko, I've faced the WORST atrocities possible in the last few years and I survived every single one of them. More importantly, I know that I won't be facing any new atrocity alone. There's you, rei.bot, Gemini, and everyone else I can count on now. I don't need to be distrustful any longer.
[11:33] <Miki Kaze> hey future girl..asking for the date??

[14:04] <Tomo Terakawa> I am content with offering spiritual assistance and guidence to those who require it
[14:06] <Indigo> Right.

[14:11] <Indigo> Sometimes it does.
[14:11] <Indigo> This is a battle I'm unsure if I can win.
[14:12] <Tomo Terakawa> hm *keeps rubbing her prayer beads*
[14:12] <Tomo Terakawa> what stakes are there if you cannot win
[14:14] <Indigo> It's not that it's if I can or cannot win.
[14:14] <Indigo> It's more I don't know what will happen when the dust settles.
[14:14] * Indigo nods.
[14:14] <Indigo> So in a way, I'm unsure if I can win it
[14:15] <Indigo> Winning would be getting what I want, but I do not know what I want.
[14:16] <Tomo Terakawa> if you do not know what you want..then why do you fight
[14:17] <Indigo> Because I don't think the force I'm fighting is a particularly good idea.
[14:17] <Tomo Terakawa> what is this force
[14:17] * Indigo pauses.
[14:18] * Indigo puts a few fingers to her lips, thinking of how to describe it.
[14:19] <Indigo> An idea that surfaced somewhere in the depths of my mind.

[14:20] <Indigo> I feel like it's happened before but I cannot be sure.
[14:20] <Tomo Terakawa> hm?

[16:20] * Lumiere stops following Gemini and stares at the new arrivals curiously
[16:20] <[gTV]Potamos> Nee, have you heard anything from your husband about what happened last night mitai na?
[16:20] <[gTV]Potamos> Apparently...I called Minako-chan this morning and they were worried about...Mizuno...
[16:21] <@Texas_Samurai> Ah ain't heard anythin' about that...
[16:21] <@Texas_Samurai> He ain't as worried about Prometheus as he was...
[16:21] <[gTV]Potamos> it's...kinda bad mitai na
[16:22] * [gTV]Potamos decides to call Minako again.
[16:22] <@Texas_Samurai> Huh?

[16:22] * Lumiere sniffs back curiously
[16:22] * Mickey runs up to Amanda
[16:22] <[gTV]Potamos> Ara! Mickey, hold on!
[16:22] * [gTV]Potamos unclips the leash and Mickey starts bounding excitedly around Amanda
[16:23] * Amanda Sharlan kneels to the ground and pets Mickey with a bright smile
[16:23] <[gTV]Potamos> That's Mickey-kun
[16:23] * @Texas_Samurai smiles, watchin' th' doggies playin'.
[16:24] <Amanda Sharlan> :D
[16:24] <[gTV]Potamos> Amanda-chan, is Suthers all right, mitai na?
[16:24] * Lumiere also runs to Amanda, pouncing over Mickey
[16:24] <Amanda Sharlan> I haven't seen him all day.
[16:24] <Amanda Sharlan> I can't find him anywhere.
[16:25] * @Texas_Samurai frowns
[16:26] <Amanda Sharlan> I need to warn him about what's been going on...

[16:26] * The Actuary staggers into the livingroom, and collapses onto a couch
[16:27] <[gTV]Potamos> Have you heard anything from Minako-chan?
[16:27] * The Actuary lies there, feverish.
[16:27] <The Actuary> N... o.
[16:27] <The Actuary> ...Been busy with... the RPofessor.

[16:32] <Hazel Ninegate> To see his face.
[16:32] <Raihosha> Totally harmless?
[16:32] <Amanda Sharlan> Well that's just too bad. He's not here.
[16:32] <Hazel Ninegate> now that his sons are relegated to being regular old "dumb terminals".
[16:32] <Hazel Ninegate> No more stealing from the computers of the world~

[16:34] <Raihosha> I'm still figuring out how you got an AI to run in the size of a antivirus...
[16:35] <Hazel Ninegate> Heh. That's why I'm the Time Lord and you're the Mage Lord.
[16:36] <Raihosha> I know what you just did, even if the others are taking a bit to understand the implications.
[16:36] <Potamos> Gemini-chan...can you do me a favor and take Mickey upstairs to my room?
[16:36] * [gTV]Potamos hands Gemini her keys and Mickey's leash
[16:36] <@Texas_Samurai> Gotcha.
[16:36] * @mango-chan brings a bowl of popcorn and takes a seat on a couch

[16:36] * @mango-chan starts eating the popcorn
[16:37] * @mango-chan 's gonna be here awhile
[16:37] <Hazel Ninegate> I just saved the world from domination y a bunch of overpowered scientific calculators.
[16:37] <Hazel Ninegate> You can thank me later.
[16:37] * @mango-chan raises her hand!
[16:37] <@mango-chan> I have a question
[16:37] <Hazel Ninegate> Yes!
[16:37] <Hazel Ninegate> The redhead in the corner with the popcorn!
[16:38] <Raihosha> No... You just got the world to run an AI of YOUR design.
[16:38] <@mango-chan> How are you so sure that they were going to cause world domination?
[16:38] <Hazel Ninegate> Heh.
[16:38] <Amanda Sharlan> We weren't...
[16:38] <Hazel Ninegate> All my AI does is block their AI from access.
[16:38] <Hazel Ninegate> That's it.
[16:38] <Hazel Ninegate> The Actuary there can attest to that.
[16:39] * Hazel Ninegate looks at Mango.
[16:39] <Raihosha> Um... it is an AI. They do grow.
[16:39] <Hazel Ninegate> I don't know if they were or not, to be REALLY honest.
[16:39] <Hazel Ninegate> not mine.
[16:39] <@mango-chan> So.
[16:39] <Hazel Ninegate> I know how to purpose them properly.
[16:39] <@mango-chan> You were operating on...what reason?
[16:39] * Hazel Ninegate presses a finger to her forehead
[16:39] <Hazel Ninegate> That I wanted to make Suthers weep lubricant until he rusts.
[16:40] <Hazel Ninegate> He took my GOODWILL
[16:40] <Hazel Ninegate> And literally tried to STAB ME IN THE HEARTS.
[16:40] <@mango-chan> But why do you hate him so mu--
[16:40] <@mango-chan> He took your tires?
[16:40] * Hazel Ninegate snarls
[16:40] <@mango-chan> Oh
[16:40] <Hazel Ninegate> ...That's goodyear, dear.
[16:41] <@mango-chan> ...He took your thrift store?
[16:41] <Raihosha> Yes, you do know how to purpose them.
[16:41] <Amanda Sharlan> You leave us alone or I'll be the next to go after you...
[16:41] * Hazel Ninegate raises an eyebrow
[16:41] <[gTV]Potamos> Amanda
[16:41] <@mango-chan> But to be honest! That would be a good reason to hate a person.
[16:41] <Hazel Ninegate> _You_ wrangle that fanatical tn man.
[16:41] <@mango-chan> But that could have actually helped people!
[16:41] <[gTV]Potamos> Don't do anything rash, mitai na
[16:41] <@mango-chan> And you just kind of...stomped on that because you hate a person?
[16:42] <Hazel Ninegate> Oh, BOO HOO.
[16:42] <@mango-chan> I'm just curious!
[16:42] <Hazel Ninegate> So the Humans don't get suepr solar energy.
[16:42] <@mango-chan> I don't know who you are or anything
[16:42] <Hazel Ninegate> - It's not like they'll f[BLEEP]king die -
[16:42] <Hazel Ninegate> Believe me. I wish they would.
[16:42] <@mango-chan> just that you're crazy.
[16:43] <Hazel Ninegate> But you make it.
[16:43] <Hazel Ninegate> You all make it.
[16:43] <Hazel Ninegate> And I hate that with all my being.
[16:43] <@mango-chan> Make...what?
[16:43] <Hazel Ninegate> But right now that hatred... is subsumed by my rage against that man.
[16:43] <@mango-chan> You're losing me again, lady with the hair ribbon.
[16:44] <Hazel Ninegate> Make history. Make it to space. To Empire.
[16:44] <@mango-chan> Oh.
[16:44] <Hazel Ninegate> To the End of the Universe.
[16:44] <@mango-chan> But.
[16:44] <Amanda Sharlan> Rage...you came back for the dead just to hold a vendetta...
[16:44] <@mango-chan> Why is that so bad?
[16:44] <Hazel Ninegate> Eclipsing the legend of my own people.
[16:44] <Hazel Ninegate> I didn't come back By Choice, daughter of Suthers.
[16:44] <Hazel Ninegate> Torchwood resurrected me.
[16:45] <Hazel Ninegate> Out of fear of what your father hath wrought.
[16:45] <@mango-chan> But people rise and fall all the time!
[16:45] <@mango-chan> Why are you taking it so personal?
[16:45] <Hazel Ninegate> My family is old.
[16:45] <Hazel Ninegate> Very old.
[16:45] <Hazel Ninegate> they helped make the Time Lords what they are.
[16:46] <Hazel Ninegate> And their legacy... MY legacy...
[16:46] <Hazel Ninegate> To see it... fizzle and fade.
[16:46] <@mango-chan> So you're not a time lady?
[16:46] * Hazel Ninegate punches the wall
[16:46] <Hazel Ninegate> Yes I am.
[16:46] * Amanda Sharlan stares icily
[16:47] <Amanda Sharlan> Then why don't you go torment some other time and leave us alone....
[16:47] <Hazel Ninegate> Sharlan.
[16:47] <Hazel Ninegate> He didn't try to KILL you.
[16:47] <Hazel Ninegate> After I was trying to SAVE him.
[16:47] <Hazel Ninegate> the ONE good thing I EVER tried.
[16:47] <Amanda Sharlan> He wouldn't have tried to kill you either if you'd stayed dead
[16:47] <Hazel Ninegate> Granted it was to f[BLEEP]k with Harkness.
[16:48] <Hazel Ninegate> Oh! oH!
[16:48] <Hazel Ninegate> So it's MY FAULT FOR LIVING.
[16:48] <Hazel Ninegate> I SEE.
[16:48] <@mango-chan> ....
[16:48] <Hazel Ninegate> You're a fine one.
[16:48] <@mango-chan> Well that wasn't wise!

[16:49] <Raihosha> Hi Mike. I was just talking to Hazel.
[16:49] <@RiderHeroProject> damnit, I get in when the good s[BLEEP]t's over
[16:49] <@mango-chan> Aw. And here I was hoping to see more yelling.
[16:49] * @RiderHeroProject had beer and pretzels totally ready for this
[16:50] <Amanda Sharlan> ....
[16:50] <@RiderHeroProject> f[BLEEP]k nuggets
[16:50] <Raihosha> Oddly enough... I think Jack goofed and Suthers was right.
[16:51] <@RiderHeroProject> Hey, lets the lunatics beat each other to death, then we only have to deal with the f[BLEEP]ked up winner.
[16:51] <@RiderHeroProject> Win Win, man
[16:51] <The Actuary> I know Jack screwed up.
[16:51] <The Actuary> But that's the problem with Suthers.
[16:51] <@mango-chan> See
[16:52] <@mango-chan> That was my logic yesterday
[16:52] <@mango-chan> but noooo
[16:52] <@mango-chan> People had to go and intervene
[16:52] <The Actuary> He brings out the worst in everyone through his... attitude.
[16:52] <@mango-chan> That's not true!
[16:52] <The Actuary> Jack made a rash decision....
[16:52] <Amanda Sharlan> I wish I could find him...
[16:52] <@mango-chan> I don't think he brings out the worst in me.
[16:52] <The Actuary> Well not you. You're on some kind of genki drug.
[16:52] <Raihosha> I think Tony was about to pass on, honestly. Ms. Sharlan... I suppose you could thank Hazel for not letting you be an orphan...
[16:52] <The Actuary> But...
[16:52] <@mango-chan> I could introduce you to my stash~
[16:53] <The Actuary> Well he tried to kill her, and this made everything worse.
[16:53] <The Actuary> And now...
[16:53] <The Actuary> I'll have to clean up Jack's mess.
[16:53] <Amanda Sharlan> I won't be thanking her for anything...
[16:53] <Raihosha> Did it? I'm not so sure it didn't just spped thing up for Ms. Ninegate.
[16:54] <[gTV]Potamos> Jack had every right to be suspicious, mitai na!
[16:54] <The Actuary> with repsect.
[16:54] <The Actuary> You weren't there.
[16:54] <[gTV]Potamos> ...Look at what happened to Ying-chan...
[16:54] <The Actuary> Ninegate tried to save him.
[16:54] <The Actuary> And he immediately pulled out a weapon specifically designed to kill Time Lords.
[16:55] <The Actuary> And went after her.
[16:55] <The Actuary> That set her off.
[16:55] <Raihosha> This is Suthers, he prepares for lots of eventualities.
[16:55] <The Actuary> Well if you're going to condone the attempted murder, we're done talking.
[16:55] <The Actuary> I know what I saw.
[16:55] <The Actuary> He was fading on the couch.
[16:56] <The Actuary> She assumed it was from signal cutoff.
[16:56] <Raihosha> Condone?
[16:56] <The Actuary> She dropped the Hotel's fedences.
[16:56] <The Actuary> ^defences
[16:56] <The Actuary> Rigged up a Wifi transmitter
[16:56] <The Actuary> He then called her closer.
[16:56] <The Actuary> And when she was in range...
[16:56] <The Actuary> Lunged for her.
[16:57] <Raihosha> I won't say he wasn't rash and used violence where it wasn't necessary.
[16:57] * The Actuary sighs a long suffering sigh.
[16:57] <The Actuary> You are always the contrarian.
[16:57] <@mango-chan> I lied
[16:57] <The Actuary> Well it doesn't matter.
[16:57] <@mango-chan> I have another question
[16:57] <The Actuary> I'll deal with Ninegate.
[16:58] <Raihosha> I am.
[16:58] <@mango-chan> Didn't this place used to be so chaotic that it was like everyone trying to kill everyone?
[16:58] <The Actuary> Yes.
[16:58] <The Actuary> But this is beyond that level of horseplay.
[16:58] <Raihosha> Hazel thinks she has her pet AI under control, but I'm not willing to trust HER word on that.
[16:58] <@mango-chan> What happened while I was gone that suddenly this became--ooooh
[16:59] <The Actuary> Then take mine? I've analyzed it. It is single-purpose and has no true growth capacity.
[16:59] * [gTV]Potamos goes off into a corner and goes to call Jack Dinsdale
[16:59] <Raihosha> Then how can it be effective against an AI that does?
[16:59] <The Actuary> Because it's very good at adaptation. But not the point where it can become sentinent.
[17:00] * Mister Dinsdale answes tiredly
[17:00] <Mister Dinsdale> ♡ Hiya, doll. ♡
[17:00] <Mister Dinsdale> /^flash
[17:00] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ Hiya
[17:00] <Raihosha> Wait... subsentient, dedicated AI?
[17:00] * Raihosha goes a bit pale...
[17:00] <The Actuary> Yes.
[17:01] <The Actuary> What, they're fairly standard tools.
[17:01] <[gTV]Potamos> Jack-kun, what's going on mitai na...
[17:01] <The Actuary> It's just an enhanced neural net.
[17:01] <[gTV]Potamos> That Ninegate b[BLEEP]ch is back...
[17:01] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ Sorry, I was hired to find Mizuno Ami...
[17:02] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ her Personal pleasure boat set sail late last night...
[17:02] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ It's not responding to hails
[17:02] <[gTV]Potamos> I asked Minako-chan about that this morning, mitai na...
[17:02] <[gTV]Potamos> She said they were going to try and break into her place in Roppongi today...
[17:02] <[gTV]Potamos> since she couldn't reach her
[17:02] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ they say she often takes cruises in isolation to think... but they are sending boats out after it just in case.
[17:03] * @mango-chan is away: I need more butter for this popcorn.
[17:03] <Raihosha> If it is a true AI, Noriko, then it has to be able to alter to circumstances in order to counter another AI...
[17:04] <The Actuary> Well, if Suthers persists in his hackery, we'll see.
[17:04] <The Actuary> I'm already arranging to get military grade AIs from Solarchos.
[17:04] <Raihosha> If it is subsentient... then it relies on its purpose to a level not even Mr. Suthers does.
[17:04] <The Actuary> Just in case his sons get Antsy.
[17:04] <Amanda Sharlan> Hackery? You think that's what Prometheus is?
[17:05] <[gTV]Potamos> ...I have a bad feeling about this Jack-kun...
[17:05] <The Actuary> Its *intended* purpose, no.
[17:05] <The Actuary> But I think Suthers is playing with forces he won't be able to control.
[17:05] <The Actuary> Luckily we have lots of experience with these kinds of things.
[17:05] <Raihosha> I suspect Hazel of the same.
[17:05] <@RiderHeroProject> Remind me to get you a copy of "I have no mouth, and I must scream" Amanda
[17:05] * The Actuary gives Raihosha the dimmest look she can.
[17:06] <The Actuary> Says the man with a giant orbiting pet rock AI.
[17:06] <Amanda Sharlan> What?
[17:06] <@RiderHeroProject> an interesting little short story~
[17:07] <Raihosha> Yes, and Aescapulus is a friend not a pet or a tool.
[17:07] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ I'll check up at Mizuno's Place
[17:07] <The Actuary> 9_9
[17:07] <@RiderHeroProject> really nori, you're surprised he's batting for suthers?
[17:07] <Raihosha> It is an important distinction.
[17:07] <The Actuary> Well, whether you like it or not, AIs are useful tools in many, many parts of the universe.
[17:07] <@RiderHeroProject> man's been helping him with this s[BLEEP]t since the jump
[17:08] <The Actuary> And there are races with centuries--- no millennia of knowledge on how ot use themproperly.
[17:08] <Raihosha> For Suthers? You don't seem to understand my motivations here Mike.
[17:08] * [gTV]Potamos hangs up
[17:08] <The Actuary> And so, maybe-- perhaps--- JUST SLIGHTLY--- we might know what the f[BLEEP]k we're doing. Even that murderess.
[17:08] <[gTV]Potamos> Noriko-chan
[17:09] * The Actuary calms...
[17:09] <The Actuary> Yes, Potamos?
[17:09] <Raihosha> Noriko, you've analyzed her work...
[17:09] <[gTV]Potamos> I just talked to Jack-kun. He's trying to help find Mizuno-san.
[17:09] * The Actuary nods softly
[17:09] <The Actuary> I'm sorry that I haven't been... as proactive on that.
[17:10] * The Actuary ... looks away a little.
[17:10] <[gTV]Potamos> Apparently her ship is adrift, and when I talked to Minako-chan earlier, she wasn't able to reach Mizuno-san...
[17:10] <The Actuary> I just have this to deal with... and apologists aren't helping.
[17:10] <Raihosha> But this is Hazel. What would it really take for her to get something past you?
[17:10] <[gTV]Potamos> ...Nee.
[17:10] <[gTV]Potamos> I think...
[17:10] <The Actuary> ...........I'm not a CHILD.
[17:10] <[gTV]Potamos> we've been under a lot of stress lately, all of us...
[17:11] <The Actuary> I've bene doing this for Thousands of years.
[17:11] <The Actuary> I'm an intelligence agent.
[17:11] <The Actuary> Trained.
[17:11] <Raihosha> So has she?
[17:11] <[gTV]Potamos> Can't we just sweep everything that happened up until today with Suthers aside and just concentrate on what's going on now, mitai na?
[17:11] * The Actuary PUNCHES the wall a sa means of clearing her head, and focusing with pain.
[17:12] <The Actuary> Yes. Yes. Sorry.
[17:12] * Raihosha looks like he's about to say something then decides against it.
[17:12] <The Actuary> Mizuno Ami.
[17:12] <The Actuary> Boat went out.
[17:12] <The Actuary> No reply.
[17:12] <Raihosha> Diversion or accident?
[17:12] <[gTV]Potamos> Noriko-chan...
[17:12] * The Actuary pulls out a phone and calls Sakura April, who is aboard the IKS Party Van
[17:13] <The Actuary> ...no, stop shooting the whales. Fly over to the Sea of Japan...
[17:13] <The Actuary> ...scan Mizuno's boat
[17:13] <[gTV]Potamos> Do you remember seeing anyone from Mizunomics at the party last night mitai na?
[17:13] <The Actuary> Hmmm...
[17:13] <The Actuary> A good question.
[17:13] <The Actuary> I don't think so, but then they're not into that kind of technology.
[17:14] <The Actuary> Hmm, Saki says there;s one lifeform on the boat.
[17:15] * [gTV]Potamos sends a quick message to Jack
[17:15] <[gTV]Potamos> ...what kind of a lifeform?
[17:16] <The Actuary> Human...
[17:16] <The Actuary> She's going to beam it up.
[17:16] * The Actuary listens
[17:16] <The Actuary> ........
[17:16] <The Actuary> ...A MAN?!
[17:17] <@RiderHeroProject> AMI WAS A CROSSDRESSER ALL THIS TIME?!?!?
[17:17] * Amanda Sharlan stares blankly
[17:17] <The Actuary> ...no no don't shoot him, ask him... DAMMIT HE NEEDS HIS KNEES
[17:17] * The Actuary closes the phone
[17:17] <The Actuary> A fisherman.
[17:17] <Raihosha> I can have the EMH standing by?
[17:17] <The Actuary> He had flagged down the boat, and getitng no answer, decided some piracy was in order.
[17:18] <The Actuary> He was trying to steal the boat.
[17:18] <[gTV]Potamos> ...
[17:18] * [gTV]Potamos calls Jack
[17:18] <The Actuary> No one else was on board.
[17:18] <[gTV]Potamos> Jack-kun!
[17:18] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ Yeah?
[17:18] <[gTV]Potamos> Talk to Noriko-chan! She has news mitai na!
[17:18] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ I'm at the apaprtment.
[17:18] * [gTV]Potamos hands Noriko her phone.
[17:18] <Mister Dinsdale> ♦ well so do.. hello? ARRGH
[17:18] * The Actuary takes the phone
[17:19] <The Actuary> Yes yes no I'm not your DOLL.
[17:19] <Raihosha> I think finding Ms. Mizuno has just gone to a high priority level.
[17:19] <The Actuary> ..you're not living in 1940. Shut up.
[17:19] <The Actuary> SPEAK PROPERLY.
[17:19] * The Actuary nods and listens.
[17:19] * The Actuary listens.
[17:19] * The Actuary listens.
[17:20] * The Actuary closes the phone and hands it to Potamos.
[17:20] <The Actuary> So... apparently there's nothing amiss in the Apartment at all.
[17:20] <The Actuary> Nothing amiss... at all.
[17:20] <The Actuary> Sheets, perfectly clean and made up.
[17:20] <The Actuary> Room, dust free.
[17:20] <The Actuary> New, fresh carpet.
[17:21] <Raihosha> That is unusual in itself?
[17:21] <The Actuary> Fresh air, even though the windows were locked.
[17:21] <The Actuary> Well, in his professional estimation as a "Private D[BLEEP]k", the whole interior of the bedroom was replaced.
[17:22] <[gTV]Potamos> Did it seem recent mitai na?
[17:22] <The Actuary> And it was freshly repainted.
[17:22] <[gTV]Potamos> ...
[17:22] <The Actuary> Yes.
[17:22] <The Actuary> As in, last night.
[17:22] * [gTV]Potamos 's eyes widen
[17:22] * The Actuary calsl Ema Skye
[17:22] <Raihosha> Someone replaced the entire room in a single night?
[17:22] * Det. Ema Skye is going down there with Prosecutor Von Karma
[17:22] <Amanda Sharlan> That's somewhat suspicious
[17:23] <The Actuary> It has happened before...*
[17:23] <[gTV]Potamos> I can only think of one reason why someone would go so far to do something like that, mitai na
[17:23] * * See CSI, the last episodes with Catherine Willows
[17:23] <[gTV]Potamos> ...They desperately needed to hide something VERY BAD.
[17:23] <[gTV]Potamos> like...
[17:23] <The Actuary> ...Yes.
[17:23] <Potamos> - a murder. -
[17:24] <The Actuary> ....yes.
[17:25] <Raihosha> Blood does get everywhere.
[17:26] <The Actuary> Certain professional organizations do have the infrastructure to do complete room replacements.
[17:26] * Raihosha does some mental calculations.
[17:26] <The Actuary> And with Capsule Technology, it's easy to get the furniture inside.
[17:26] <Raihosha> See if the subfloor has been replaced?
[17:26] <[gTV]Potamos> Capsule Technology?
[17:27] <The Actuary> Surely you've heard of Capsule Corporation.
[17:27] <The Actuary> Minako Aino is dating the son of the President, Bulma Briefs.
[17:28] <The Actuary> They possess an incredibly effective miniaturization technology.
[17:28] <The Actuary> Objects can be compressed to a fraction of their size and stored in small pill-shaped "capsules."
[17:28] <Raihosha> I've used their stuff, very effective.
[17:29] <[gTV]Potamos> Oh, I've heard of them...
[17:29] <[gTV]Potamos> ...
[17:30] <[gTV]Potamos> Noriko-chan, you know what this means.
[17:30] <Amanda Sharlan> Are there cameras in or around the building?
[17:30] <[gTV]Potamos> Because of Minako-chan's association with Capsule, she can be considered a suspect now, mitai na...
[17:31] <The Actuary> ...
[17:31] <The Actuary> Possibly. But what's the benefit. Moreover, anyone can buy capsules.
[17:32] <The Actuary> If anyone, Ninegate's the suspect. He just takes over the company in a DAY?
[17:32] <The Actuary> ^She
[17:32] <Hazel Ninegate> Habeas Corpus.
[17:32] <Hazel Ninegate> Or to Quote Jerry MacGuire...
[17:32] <Hazel Ninegate> "SHOW ME THE BODY!"
[17:32] <Raihosha> Anyone can buy SOME capsules... but hello again Hazel.
[17:33] <Hazel Ninegate> Hi~~~~ ^_____^
[17:33] * Amanda Sharlan narrows her eyes
[17:34] <Potamos> Amanda, don't do anything rash mitai na
[17:36] * Hazel Ninegate curtsies and leaces
[17:36] * Hazel Ninegate is away: eats shoots and leaves. Punctuate that depending upon your worldview~
[17:36] <Amanda Sharlan> ...
[17:37] * Amanda Sharlan lets out a long sigh and places her hand to her forehead for a moment before turning to Noriko
[17:37] <Amanda Sharlan> You never answered my question...
[17:38] <The Actuary> Which was?
[17:38] <Amanda Sharlan> Are there any cameras in or around the apartment building?
[17:39] <The Actuary> Yes, Mori Tower is also the Ginga TV HQ.
[17:39] <The Actuary> And Mizunomics as well.

[17:40] <Amanda Sharlan> If you pull the tapes perhaps you could see who entered her apartment?
[17:40] <Franziska von Karma> Detective Ema Skye is still examinign the scene.
[17:40] <Franziska von Karma> There are no logs.
[17:40] <Franziska von Karma> The entire building suffered a power outage last night, around 4 AM
[17:40] <Raihosha> A power outage?
[17:41] <Franziska von Karma> Yes. And it was not restored until about 4:30
[17:41] <Amanda Sharlan> I would ask if there were witnesses...but at 4 am...it's unlikely
[17:41] <Raihosha> So the backup generators didn't come on?
[17:42] <Franziska von Karma> Unknown. But this is why Rantsom Media got the media excluves last night.
[17:42] <Franziska von Karma> No, the generators were sabotaged.
[17:42] <Raihosha> Hmm.
[17:42] <Amanda Sharlan> Someone went through a lot of trouble it seems....
[17:43] <Franziska von Karma> Yes.
[17:43] <Raihosha> I would be highly worried for Ms. Mizuno's safety.
[17:43] <Franziska von Karma> Whoever did this was clever, and methodical.
[17:43] * Franziska von Karma gets a text.
[17:44] <Franziska von Karma> The subfloor was sanded down. And this is a concrete subfloor.
[17:45] <Franziska von Karma> The probability of foul play si very high.
[17:46] <[gTV]Potamos> Ema-chan is still there, I take it?
[17:46] <Raihosha> Hm. I halfway expect evidence of nanite cleansers being used as well.
[17:46] <Franziska von Karma> Yes.
[17:46] <Franziska von Karma> Nanite...?
[17:47] * The Actuary explains.
[17:47] * Amanda Sharlan sits down to think
[17:47] <Raihosha> They do a real number on forensic evidence.
[17:47] * Franziska von Karma texts Detective Ema Skye and tells her to look for evidemce of this
[17:48] * Det. Ema Skye texts back "HOW IN THE HEL DO I DO THAT
[17:48] * Franziska von Karma texts back "Contact Jack Harkness
[17:48] * Det. Ema Skye texts back <3
[17:48] <Raihosha> I think I have some forensic nano upstairs if that would help?
[17:49] <Franziska von Karma> She's not answering now.
[17:50] * Franziska von Karma waits for her snap out of it
[17:55] <Franziska von Karma> Shes' checking. No, it doesn't look like that was used.
[17:55] <Raihosha> Is she still drooling over Jack, Franziska?
[17:56] <Franziska von Karma> And now Captain Harkness has her full attention
[17:56] * Franziska von Karma sighs and closes the phone
[17:56] <Franziska von Karma> I hope they don't contaminate the crime scene
[17:57] <Raihosha> I think Ema is professional enough to use a different room.

[19:31] <The Actuary> Soalrchos... military grade AIs. Capable of battling and subduing other AIs.
[19:31] <ThePaleElf> And since it's the middle of a moutain range, which if my earth geography is correct, is pretty much in the middle of nowhere... why should anyone care?

[19:32] <ThePaleElf> Ok. Clearly my Terran Geography isn't up to par
[19:36] <Solarchos> As for what's in the cases...weapons. Some stuff I locked away years ago because they're rather nasty.

[19:36] <The Actuary> Suthers has something called "Anthill nano."
[19:36] <The Actuary> He tried to use it on Ninegate.
[19:37] <The Actuary> I suspect it's a Nanotech weapon.
[19:37] <Solarchos> Didn't work?
[19:37] <The Actuary> She dodged.
[19:37] <David O`Cain> Hey, guys. Still knee deep in s[BLEEP]t, are we?
[19:37] <The Actuary> I have inhjected myseif with antibody nanobots.
[19:37] <Solarchos> Very much so.
[19:38] * The Actuary still looks unwell.
[19:39] * Solarchos opens one of the cases. Lying inside is a strange cylindrical-barreled rifle. It looks like some kind of energy weapon and the material is a dark colored metal. The light reflecting off the gun's surfaces show faint green circuit patterns.
[19:39] <David O`Cain> Besides safeguarding our compys, lappys, and servers and whatnot, what do we do?
[19:40] <The Actuary> That's all we need do for now.
[19:40] * Solarchos opens the other case. Lying inside is an alien sword that looks more like a cleaver. The blade is deep green in color and is shifting in and out of phase constantly.

[19:41] <Solarchos> Noriko, I'm pretty certain I can get you what you need. And lots of it. How soon do you think you'll need it?
[19:41] <David O`Cain> Brought in the ol' Gauss rifle, huh? Or something similar to it?
[19:42] <Solarchos> Nope. Something much different and far more powerful in some ways.
[19:42] <Solarchos> These things are exceedingly dangerous due to their origins.
[19:43] <David O`Cain> Oh, okay. I thought that's what the rifle was. Been a while since I'd seen one.
[19:43] <@RiderHeroProject> oh god, is that what i THINK it is...
[19:45] <The Actuary> I'd say about five AIs...
[19:46] <The Actuary> As soon as possible.
[19:46] <The Actuary> ...We may need something strong enough to take on Aesculpus.
[19:47] <@Texas_Samurai> ...What're yousaying?!
[19:47] <Solarchos> These are Necron weapons. The rifle is a Synaptic Disintegrator. It fires a compressed leptonic beam that destroys synaptic tissue. Very powerful and very efficient. We discovered that the more intelligent the creature is getting struck by the beam, the stronger the effect on them.
[19:48] <David O`Cain> Ouchies. Shock therapy of death.
[19:49] <The Actuary> Strong enough to deal with the AI here
[19:49] <@Texas_Samurai> But.... But that's Mister Rai's ship!
[19:49] <Solarchos> The sword is a Hyperphase Sword. The energy blade vibrates across several dimensional states and can easily slice through every type of matter we've ever tested it against.
[19:49] <The Actuary> He's too cozy with Suthers.
[19:50] <The Actuary> Suthers has had a lot of access to that Asteroid.
[19:50] <Solarchos> You think Raihosha's been co-opted?
[19:50] <The Actuary> If Aescapulus has been compromised...
[19:50] <ThePaleElf> I don't think Aes would willingly let tony acess much of his systems
[19:50] <The Actuary> No, but he's too trusting.
[19:50] <ThePaleElf> He knows what happened in the deleted timeline
[19:50] <The Actuary> I'm just being careful.
[19:50] <ThePaleElf> He's likely to have already taken precautions
[19:50] <The Actuary> Solarchos, those weapons... I don't thinkthey're needed.
[19:51] <The Actuary> They're for fighting a flesh-and-blood war.
[19:51] <Aes> A few, Mister Skysong.
[19:51] <The Actuary> ....

[19:51] <Aes> Good eving all.
[19:51] <The Actuary> not yet, anyway.
[19:52] <Solarchos> If Ami's dead and Suthers already tried using nanoweapons on Hazel, then it sounds like a flesh-and-blood war may not be long in coming.
[19:52] <David O`Cain> Hey, Aes.
[19:52] <The Actuary> Hello, Aes.
[19:52] <The Actuary> I was just preparing countermeasures in case you were compromise.d I hope you don't take it personally.
[19:52] <ThePaleElf> Just call me Mormeirl for now. I'm still not sure if I wish to retake my old name.
[19:53] * Solarchos closes the cases. "But if you insist, Noriko. I'll trust your judgement. I wanted to make a few precautions of my own as well."
[19:53] <Aes> Of course not Madame Noriko, I predicted you'd do something like this once Ninegate started her activities.
[19:53] <The Actuary> ^^
[19:54] <The Actuary> Hmm...
[19:57] <Aes> Prometheus hasn't made any hostile moves against me so far, you will be pleased to hear.
[19:58] <The Actuary> I'm just preparing.
[19:58] <The Actuary> It may come to nothing; and if so, that is the best outcome.
[19:59] <The Actuary> But I will not be caught with my pants down.
[19:59] * The Actuary bites her lower lip.
[19:59] <Aes> Preparation always helps avoid an incident becoming a crisis.
[19:59] <The Actuary> I have one last weapon to deploy.
[19:59] <Aes> And I hear The Duelman is around, keeping your pants up is a good idea.
[20:00] <The Actuary> /awya Father, forgive me.
[20:00] <David O`Cain> So it's all a big chess game now? I'm trying to follow all this the best I can.
[20:00] * The Actuary is away 
[20:01] <Aes> AI tend to play very complex chess games, Mister O'Cain.
[20:01] <Aes> And some of us prefer higher dimensional Go.
[20:06] <David O`Cain> So, if Anthony and Hazel's AIs are constanting playing chess or Go, the way I see it, it's gonna wind up being nothing more than a huge stalemate.
[20:06] <Aes> I am looking forward to assessing Prometheus's capabilities. His brother is quite capable himself, definitely Turing-grade. I'm still trying to figure out of he has superTuring or HyperTuring capabilities I haven't seen as yet.
[20:07] <Aes> Simple chess would certainly be a stalemate.
[20:08] <Aes> I would advise figuring out which game is being played as a first priority.
[20:09] * Solarchos is away: Be right back.

[20:40] <David O`Cain> Welcome back, Solar.
[20:41] <The Actuary> Two Furu, One Cup?
[20:41] <Aes> But I understand why your father might be upset with your course of action.
[20:41] * Future Furu throws it away, causing it to shatter on the floor and turn into little biomechanical ants.
[20:41] <The Actuary> Yes.
[20:41] * LadyAlice eyes the ants, not feeling revolted by the site of it at all.
[20:41] <The Actuary> Well he'll have to deal with it.
[20:41] <David O`Cain> What's going on with you, Matsumi?
[20:41] <LadyAlice> sight^
[20:41] <Matsumi Kaze> not much
[20:42] <Matsumi Kaze> getting ready to send Joanna off
[20:42] * Future Furu leans in close to Alice.
[20:42] <David O`Cain> When's she heading out?
[20:42] <Solarchos> Noriko, I have good news for you.
[20:43] <Future Furu> AS unphased by f[BLEEP]ked up s[BLEEP]t as ever, huh.
[20:43] <Solarchos> If you have time for it that is.
[20:43] * LadyAlice smirks, "Of course. When you go through what I go through in Wonderland, and then the s[BLEEP]t Euri goes through in this world, it stops phasing a person after a while."
[20:44] <The Actuary> Yes?
[20:44] * LadyAlice eyes the green haired man closely.
[20:45] <Matsumi Kaze> hello Alice
[20:45] <Suu> Amanda, you want to go somewhere?
[20:45] <Indigo> ...
[20:45] <Indigo> I'm sorry
[20:45] <Indigo> WHO are you again?
[20:45] <Amanda Sharlan> That would be nice, Suu
[20:45] <Suu> Get your mind off things?
[20:45] <Indigo> because I really wasn't paying attention
[20:46] <Solarchos> Just to explain to you who the CAST are. They're a race of sentient robots, a lot of whom look a little bit like Chachamaru from "Negima". They're all neural-net intelligences that are fully sentient in every sense. Their average IQ is well over 120 at the minimum. I've put out a call for volunteers with an IQ range of 150 to 250.
[20:46] * LadyAlice reaches up and gently moves the hair of the young man's face to get a better look at him. She smiles a little sadly. "I thought you looked familiar..."
[20:46] <Solarchos> There are a large number of CAST serving as crew members onboard both the "Kirshwasser" and the "Aika Sumeragi".
[20:47] <Future Furu> Ah, well, I've had some work done. A nose job, got some wrinkles removed, bonded my DNA with that of a race of alien monsters.
[20:47] * Future Furu smirks.
[20:47] <Solarchos> 5000 have answered the call to help you, Noriko. Feel free to take whoever you need.
[20:47] <Matsumi Kaze> huh?
[20:47] <Matsumi Kaze> what are you guys talking about
[20:47] * LadyAlice smiiiiles. "It's good seeing some sort of version of you again. Brings up pleasant and long ago memories."
[20:47] <Solarchos> Noriko requested my help, Matsumi. I'm doing just that.
[20:48] <Future Furu> Way way long ago on my end.
[20:48] <Future Furu> But...yeah, I know what you mean.
[20:48] <The Actuary> ..Can they link up in a group conciousness configuration?
[20:48] <LadyAlice> So... are you and he one in the same?
[20:49] <Solarchos> Also, if you need access to extreme high-level computer facilities, you may use the "Hellesponte". Since that ship is a Pre-Imperium vessel also operated by a high-level AI (and yes, the Adeptus Mechanicus declared it heretical), it might be of use.
[20:49] <Solarchos> And yes, the CAST can establish a gesalt consciousness if needed.
[20:49] <Future Furu> Kinda, sorta. I am he, if he suddenly starts making a lot of questionable moral decisions. Whether he will or not, well. We'll see.
[20:49] <Aes> If they are to oppose me they would need to SOlarchos.
[20:50] <Solarchos> In fact, I kinda figured you might request that. There are a bunch of CAST among the group that actually have experience with temporary gestalt link-ups.
[20:50] * LadyAlice nods in understanding.
[20:50] <The Actuary> then I would do this. Station the CAST-- all 5000-- on the Hellesponte, and keep it one AU out from the planet.
[20:50] <LadyAlice> Well it's nice to see some version of you again after all these years.
[20:50] <Suu> I was thinking maybe we could go for crepes or something this time, Amanda
[20:50] <The Actuary> Make sure they can integrate with it.
[20:51] <Solarchos> Morrigan also has a sample of Scrapcode: a Chaos-infected computer virus. Very aggressive. Very adaptive. Do you think you might be able to make use of something like that?
[20:51] * Matsumi Kaze opens ginger ale
[20:51] <The Actuary> Have them practice exercise against the Hellesponte AI
[20:51] * Amanda Sharlan smiles at Suu and nods again
[20:51] <Future Furu> 's good to see you too. How's it going with, uh, your mind stuff.
[20:51] <The Actuary> ...I'd rather not use viruses unless we have to.
[20:51] <Aes> Chaos-infected SOlarchos?
[20:51] <Solarchos> Integrating with the Hellesponte's AI won't be a problem. Most of the ship is automated.
[20:52] <The Actuary> I would rather displace Suthers' children than destroy them.
[20:52] <Aes> DO you really want a Chaos aligned AI against you?
[20:52] * LadyAlice turns to face Indigo and respond to her questions from before though she remains standing nearby Furu.
[20:52] <The Actuary> If it even comes ot that.
[20:52] <LadyAlice> I'm Alice, one of the various people that live and are supported by Euri's mind.
[20:52] <The Actuary> This is a purely precautionary, purely defensive measure.
[20:52] * Solarchos shrugs to Aes. "Scrapcode is apparently exceedingly destructive. I'm just putting all weapons on the table for Noriko."
[20:53] * Solarchos issues the order to the CAST volunteers.
[20:53] <The Actuary> hold it in reserve but only as s very last resort.
[20:54] <Solarchos> Now Noriko, I have a question for you.
[20:54] <The Actuary> Yes
[20:54] <Aes> Until and Unless I am compromised, I am willing to work with you Madame Noriko.
[20:54] <Solarchos> How are YOU doing? I noticed earlier that you've been speaking to a lot of people and doing a lot of things that you don't seem at all comfortable with. Starting with Ninegate herself.
[20:54] <The Actuary> No offense Aes, but as one of Suthers' sons is on board you, I have to keep you at Arms' length.
[20:54] * Suu is away: Come on, follow me (#ss3)
[20:55] <Solarchos> I want to make sure you don't destroy yourself in the process.
[20:55] * Amanda Sharlan is away: ss3
[20:55] <Aes> He is a quite polite AI, Madame Noriko.
[20:55] <The Actuary> ...
[20:56] <The Actuary> We shall see... on both counts, Aes and Solarchos.
[20:56] <Solarchos> That might be, Aes. For now. Until it needs to do something you may object to.
[20:57] <Solarchos> Noriko...once upon a time you were willing to sacrifice anyone and anything other than yourself to accomplish your objectives. Nothing else mattered, including the people you were getting involved.
[20:57] <Aes> Yes, there is the possibility. BUt he seems to quite enjoy the indexing work he's helping me with.
[20:57] <Solarchos> Now it seems like you're almost willing to subject yourself to practically everything and everyone to accomplish THIS objective.
[20:57] * LadyAlice materializes her deck of razor sharp and explosive playing cards and starts shuffling them.
[20:58] <Matsumi Kaze> hm....
[20:58] <The Actuary> Well I've sort of inverted that paradigm.
[20:58] <Indigo> Those look moderately dangerous.
[20:58] <Future Furu> So much tech talk going on. It's exciting!
[20:58] <Aes> And he gets to see the data of a million different worlds in the process. It can be nothing but mind expanding.
[20:58] <Solarchos> Yes, you have.
[20:59] <Solarchos> I want to make sure you don't destroy yourself in the process, Noriko. You still have an oath to me, and I'd be a poor protectee if I didn't watch out for YOUR wellbeing as well.
[20:59] <LadyAlice> More than moderately, especially if you don't know how to use them.
[21:00] * The Actuary smiles warmly
[21:00] <The Actuary> Oh, I'll take abuse. I never said anything about dying XD
[21:01] <Solarchos> Neither did I.
[21:01] <The Actuary> I'll be fine. :)
[21:01] <The Actuary> If you'll excuse me, I need to explain things to my father. Thank you for your help. And for caring.
[21:02] *** The Actuary [nsx@tokyo.japan.unit.org] has left #suburbansenshi2 (It is within the scope of my estimation.)
[21:02] <Solarchos> Once upon a time you subjected me to a "devil's deal" as you called it. Now it seems like you're subjecting yourself to more than a few.
[21:02] <David O`Cain> Take care, Noriko.
[21:02] <Future Furu> I remember those cards. I can vouch for the dangerousness.
[21:02] * LadyAlice continues shuffling her cards, pulling out a few to take a look at it before putting it back into the deck and reshuffling.
[21:02] <Aes> Until later Madame Noriko.
[21:02] <Solarchos> If you're trying to balance the scales or some Karma-thing, you don't have to.
[21:03] * LadyAlice smiles mischievously and hands Furu one of the cards.
[21:03] * Solarchos taps his foot a little, frowning.
[21:03] * Future Furu takes it very carefully
[21:04] <Indigo> Those playing cards also look quite impractical
[21:04] <Future Furu> They're less for playing and more for killing, if memory serves.
[21:04] <LadyAlice> Oh they're very practical for the purposes I use them for.
[21:05] <David O`Cain> Gonna be alright, Solar?
[21:05] <Indigo> I have this eeire feeling that somewhere, I've seen cards like that used before.
[21:05] <Solarchos> I'll be fine, David. I'm more concerned for Noriko though.
[21:05] <Indigo> But not by you.
[21:05] <LadyAlice> Indigo, do you not remember who I am?
[21:06] <Indigo> No.
[21:06] <Indigo> I frankly do not.
[21:06] <Indigo> But being trapped in a volcano for five years does that to people.
[21:06] <LadyAlice> A bout of memory loss?
[21:06] <Solarchos> She and I have started creating a new future together. I don't want to see that ended so soon after we'd finally laid the past to rest.
[21:06] * HAZEL NINEGATE HAXORED MY ACCOUNT looks at franziska von karma.
[21:06] *** franziska von karma is



More information about her is Here.
Her image Song is: 'Great Revival - Franziska von Karma' byAkemi Kimura .
[21:06] <Indigo> Forgetting faces.
[21:06] <LadyAlice> Weren't you born in a volcano?
[21:06] <Indigo> Forgetting names
[21:06] <Indigo> Minute details.
[21:06] <Indigo> ...
[21:07] <LadyAlice> I swear, Euri tells me the silliest stories about people sometimes.
[21:07] <Indigo> That's not particularly funny.
[21:07] * Future Furu toys with the card idly until he notices something. He looks at it, and then back to Alice.
[21:07] <LadyAlice> It's hard to believe her.
[21:07] <Indigo> Euri would believe I was trapped in a volcano
[21:07] * LadyAlice de-materializes the cards, since she doesn't have any pockets with this outfit, though the one Furu is holding remains.
[21:07] <Indigo> Or rather born in a volcano.
[21:08] <LadyAlice> She's a very imaginative woman.
[21:08] <LadyAlice> So how'd you get into a volcano in the first place? How did you come back to civilization?
[21:08] <Indigo> Knowing her, she'd have known full well I was stuck in a volcano trying to get out and wouldn't have cared.
[21:08] * Future Furu slips the card into his coat pocket, smiling.
[21:08] <Indigo> First answer, Haruka pushed me.
[21:09] <Indigo> I went to meditate and she drove me up there
[21:09] <LadyAlice> Well then.
[21:10] <Indigo> and accidentally knocked me into the volcano
[21:10] <Indigo> The second answer
[21:10] <LadyAlice> And yet you were trapped for five years?
[21:10] <Indigo> A mountain recently exploded for some reason or another
[21:10] <Indigo> I crept out that way
[21:10] <LadyAlice> Ah.
[21:10] <David O`Cain> It's gonna be alright, man. Noriko knows what she's doing (thumbs up to Solar).
[21:10] <Indigo> I tried for awhile
[21:10] <Indigo> gave up
[21:10] <Indigo> Decided to use it to my benefit
[21:11] <Solarchos> I know. But Hazel Ninegate....
[21:11] <Future Furu> If I have learned anything from video games, it's that as long as you don't touch lava, you'll be fine.
[21:11] <Indigo> At some point something turned and I tried to get out
[21:11] <Solarchos> We talked about her earlier, Noriko and I. Remember how I used to distrust Time Lords in general, David?
[21:11] <Indigo> My element is Lava.
[21:11] <Indigo> It accepts me
[21:12] <LadyAlice> Makes sense.
[21:12] <David O`Cain> How could I not, Solar?
[21:12] <Future Furu> Lucky. That's a way better element than light.
[21:12] <Eitak_Razal> Why bind yourself to one element?
[21:12] *** Eitak_Razal [Queen@Neggerra.gov] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[21:12] <@spiritflame> irasshai Eitak_Razal
[21:12] <LadyAlice> Sounds like the weather, fire, and smitch mages Lantune would occasionally talk about.
[21:12] <LadyAlice> smith^
[21:13] * Eitak_Razal gestures and various orbs of various elements appear around her
[21:13] <Indigo> Light can be used to an advantage in the correct circumstances
[21:13] <Indigo> It can illuminate paths
[21:13] <Indigo> It can blind your enemies.
[21:13] * LadyAlice nods.
[21:13] * Future Furu creates a stool for himself to sit on.
[21:14] <Furu> IT CAN ALSO BE USED FOR LASER ARROWS
[21:14] <Solarchos> Noriko flat-out told me that Hazel is *everything* I ever feared about Time Lords: excessive power, excessive ambition, and no morality or ethicality whatsoever.
[21:14] *** Furu [couragesun@ikari-home-network] has left #suburbansenshi2 (I LOVE SHOOTING LASER ARROWS PEW PEW)
[21:14] <Solarchos> I think Noriko's trying to protect me.
[21:14] * Future Furu rolls his eyes.
[21:14] <Aes> Nucleomancy perhaps?
[21:14] <David O`Cain> Yeah.
[21:14] * LadyAlice purses her lips together.
[21:14] <Indigo> It can be used for that as well
[21:15] <Indigo> Oh it seems he's gone.
[21:15] <Future Furu> Yeah, he's...he's excitable.
[21:15] <Indigo> ...
[21:15] <Indigo> Right.
[21:16] <LadyAlice> He... seems the same as ever.
[21:16] * Indigo looks at Furu.
[21:16] *** Furu is a young man with short green hair and red eyes. He's wearing a yellow jacket, jeans, and a black shirt with a sun logo on it. More information about him is Here.
His image Song is: .
[21:16] * Joanna Smithson is back
[21:16] <ThePaleElf> What about necromancy
[21:16] * Joanna Smithson walks back down with a suitcase
[21:16] <Joanna Smithson> ......I'm ready to go
[21:16] <Future Furu> Pretty much. You'd think someone about to get married would be a liiiittle bit more mature, but. Yeah.
[21:16] <Indigo> I'm sure there are other ways it could be used
[21:16] <LadyAlice> He's.. getting married?
[21:16] <LadyAlice> Wasn't he married already?
[21:17] <Indigo> No, he's rambunctious and excited over getting married
[21:17] <Matsumi Kaze> ok...I'll get the car ready
[21:17] <Future Furu> Long story.
[21:17] <Future Furu> Irrelevant from my perspective.
[21:17] <Solarchos> I'll still do everything I can to help Noriko though. She deserves that from me. And if need be I'll be the one protecting *her*.
[21:17] <Indigo> Maturity on his scale would not be expected
[21:17] <Aes> I'll bet it involves Time Trave Mister Furu.
[21:17] <ThePaleElf> I'm lost...
[21:18] <Joanna Smithson> goodbye everyone......
[21:18] * Joanna Smithson looks at everyone, espcally Noriko
[21:18] <Aes> Until we meet again Mistress Smithson.
[21:18] <Future Furu> It more involves reality getting twisted into a pretzel shape and then restructured in a slightly different way but that's more complicated.
[21:18] <ThePaleElf> Wait? Where are you going?
[21:19] <David O`Cain> Bye, Joanna. Hope you have a good trip.
[21:19] <Joanna Smithson> ..I'm going to be spending a week at the Twin Cities
[21:19] <Joanna Smithson> ....so I can...have some time to find myself
[21:20] <LadyAlice> Mobius strip reality?
[21:20] <Future Furu> Less that and more just a jumble.
[21:20] * Future Furu clears his throat.
[21:20] <Future Furu> Science aside...
[21:20] * LadyAlice eyes him curiously.
[21:20] <Future Furu> Interesting choice of card draw for me, Alice. What made you pick it out?
[21:20] * Joanna Smithson walks over and gives Noriko a hug
[21:21] <LadyAlice> I just thought you might appreciate it.
[21:22] <Future Furu> Can't say that I don't.
[21:23] <Joanna Smithson> goodbye...
[21:23] * LadyAlice chortles quietly.
[21:24] <Solarchos> Anyway, I need to get going myself. I have a lot of things to coordinate.
[21:25] <Aes> Have a good evening Mister Langister.
[21:25] <Future Furu> Might be inclined to look a little into it, though.
[21:26] <Joanna Smithson> ..if anyone sees Noriko
[21:26] <Joanna Smithson> ...tell her I said goodbye
[21:26] <Joanna Smithson> let's go, Matsumi
[21:26] <Matsumi Kaze> alright..I'll be back guys
[21:26] * Matsumi Kaze leads Joanna to the garuge
[21:26] * Matsumi Kaze is away 
[21:26] <LadyAlice> I'd be more than willing to help you look into it if you'd like.
[21:26] *** Joanna Smithson has left #suburbansenshi2 (.scared)
[21:27] * Future Furu arches an eyebrow.
[21:27] <Future Furu> Yeah? How so?
[21:28] * LadyAlice shrugs, a glint of her humor in her eyes and a small smile on her face.
[21:28] <LadyAlice> Oh, you know, I think I'll figure something out.
[21:28] <Future Furu> Aah. Well, when you do, let me know, alright?
[21:28] * Future Furu smirks.
[21:30] *** Solarchos [Fallen0081@EnclaveFedCom.Net] has left #suburbansenshi2
[21:30] * LadyAlice smiles, brushing a strand of her hair behind her ear and brushes down her dress with her hands.
[21:31] <Future Furu> Looks like it's just us now.
[21:31] <LadyAlice> Is that right?
[21:32] <LadyAlice> Perhaps I should change into something a little bit more comfortable...
[21:33] <Future Furu> Now that definitely sounds interesting.
[21:34] * Indigo is back
[21:34] <Indigo> Aren't you married?
[21:35] <LadyAlice> Who?
[21:35] * Indigo points to Furu
[21:35] <Future Furu> Remember what I said about existing from branches of my past-self's decisions?
[21:35] <Future Furu> That's one of them.
[21:35] <Indigo> Oh right
[21:35] <Indigo> there's branches of you
[21:35] <Indigo> spread all across the continuity
[21:36] <Aes> He is Legion.
[21:36] <LadyAlice> Alternate timelines and the like.
[21:37] * LadyAlice eyes go cold for a moment.
[21:37] <Indigo> Next thing you know we're going to find dream bubbles--
[21:37] <LadyAlice> Dream bubbles?
[21:37] <Indigo> I think my references are crossed with something else
[21:38] <Future Furu> I'm pretty cool like that.
[21:39] <LadyAlice> Yes. Yes you are.
[21:40] <LadyAlice> So after those years of being one in a volcano, would you say you're a stronger warrior now?
[21:41] <Indigo> I can't be sure.
[21:41] <Indigo> Perhaps.
[21:42] <Indigo> Or perhaps I found something more than strength.
[21:42] <LadyAlice> Oh?

[21:44] * LadyAlice remains standing near Furu as her attire suddenly changes without a flash or light or anything like that.
[21:44] <Future Furu> Figures, henshin sequences are too showy.
[21:45] <LadyAlice> And they let you see a little more than you need to see.

[21:46] <Masaki O`Cain> I was talking to her *points to Indigo*
[21:46] * Indigo bows to Masaki
[21:46] <David O`Cain> Hey, Masaki.
[21:46] <LadyAlice> Yeah, though my name has always been Alice Liddle.
[21:47] <LadyAlice> Euri had to make sure that everyone knew we were affiliated with her back in the day.
[21:47] <Masaki O`Cain> oh and you're that...frilled..version of euri
[21:48] <LadyAlice> Though she's matured and leveled out quite a bit since then. I'd have to say that we've all matured over the years.
[21:48] <LadyAlice> ....
[21:48] <LadyAlice> I'm my own person.
[21:48] <The Wraith> Has anyone seen Rose about.
[21:48] <LadyAlice> I always have been.
[21:48] <Indigo> Rose?
[21:48] <Indigo> Oh
[21:48] <LadyAlice> I, and the others, rely on Euri's power to sustain us.
[21:48] <Indigo> Brad's wife.
[21:49] <The Wraith> My wife.
[21:49] <Masaki O`Cain> how many people live in that nutzo's head
[21:49] <Indigo> ...What happened to you?
[21:49] <David O`Cain> A few, I think, Masaki.
[21:50] * LadyAlice purses her lips, her eyes growing cold. "At least 9."
[21:50] <The Wraith> Nothing.
[21:50] <The Wraith> This is the man behind the flesh-mask.
[21:50] <Indigo> But you're not the man I was speaking to last night.
[21:50] <LadyAlice> I haven't touched home base in a long while so she might have saved more people since last I left.
[21:50] <Indigo> Then you are.
[21:50] <Indigo> And if you shed your immortality, which would you be left with?
[21:50] <Indigo> The mask or the man behind it?
[21:51] <The Wraith> The mask.
[21:51] <The Wraith> It's a price worth paying.
[21:51] <Indigo> But is that who you really are?
[21:51] <Indigo> Would you be willing to give up so much of yourself for...
[21:51] <Indigo> For what?
[21:52] <Indigo> For one person?
[21:52] <The Wraith> For her.
[21:52] <Indigo> And what if she falls out of love with you?
[21:52] <Indigo> What if she abandons you for someone or something else?
[21:52] <Indigo> Is mortality worth that much to you?
[21:52] * Masaki O`Cain streaches
[21:53] <The Wraith> I think so. Yes.
[21:53] * LadyAlice fingers the chain-choker than is embedded in the skin circulating around her neck.
[21:53] * Indigo pauses
[21:53] <Indigo> I hope, for your sake, that you're not wrong, then.
[21:54] <Indigo> As for your wife, I haven't seen her.
[21:54] * The Wraith nods
[21:55] * Future Furu smiles and reaches out to touch it as well, remembering how touchy she used to be about it.
[21:55] <The Wraith> I believe I shall make for the rooftops. A run sounds lovely right now.
[21:56] <ThePaleElf> ....
[21:56] <David O`Cain> How're you, Masaki?
[21:56] <The Wraith> Anyone care to join?
[21:57] * LadyAlice eyes him, allowing him to touch it.
[21:57] <Future Furu> Are you intentionally trying to make me all nostalgic?
[21:58] <The Wraith> By my lonesome then.
[21:58] *** The Wraith [EndOfDays@HellsGate.Microsoft.com] has left #suburbansenshi2 (Thus that which is the most awful of evils, death, is nothing to us)
[21:58] <LadyAlice> What nonsense.
[21:59] <Future Furu> Uh huh. Total nonsense. Definitely believing that.
[21:59] <Masaki O`Cain> hey Indigo
[21:59] * LadyAlice chuckles softly.
[22:00] <Masaki O`Cain> what if sometime we do a little match *grins*
[22:00] * Eitak_Razal hovers on her crystal ball
[22:00] * LadyAlice looks at Eitak_Razal.
[22:00] *** Eitak_Razal is is a young woman with red hair that reaches past her shoulders and green eyes. She stands about 5'9". She is the Queen of Neggerra and is often in a green dress and wearing a circlet., though she might be in something difrent today.
image Song is: Time Is Changing .
[22:00] * Future Furu leans back in his seat, trying to act casual.
[22:00] <Future Furu> Y'know, Alice, if you missed me, you can just say it.
[22:00] * Amanda Sharlan is back
[22:01] * LadyAlice stiffens for a moment and then snorts, trying to pass it off that she thinks the idea of her missing him is laughable.
[22:01] <LadyAlice> You're witty as ever, I see.
[22:01] <Indigo> A match, Masaki.
[22:01] <Indigo> As in a spar?
[22:01] <Future Furu> I've had a couple of centuries to work on my humor. Good to see it's still getting laughs.
[22:02] <Masaki O`Cain> yeah
[22:02] <LadyAlice> How old would you say that you are?
[22:02] * Amanda Sharlan sits on the couch and just watches
[22:03] <Future Furu> Pfft, I don't know. I haven't kept count in a while.
[22:03] <Future Furu> I'm not like, time lord old but I'm not exactly anywhere near a human lifespan at this point either.
[22:03] <Indigo> Perhaps.
[22:04] * LadyAlice nods.
[22:04] <LadyAlice> I wonder how long I'll live for..
[22:04] * Eitak_Razal shifts her legs in her seated postion. Her dress shifts hideing the cyrstal ball she's sitting on, makeing it appear as if she was bobbing slightly up and down in a seated postion in the air.
[22:05] <Masaki O`Cain> heh might be fun
[22:05] <Future Furu> I could tell you, but it's more fun to find out as you go along, hm? I mean technically you're already pretty old, right?
[22:05] * LadyAlice looks at Furu, feeling curious.
[22:06] <LadyAlice> Very, actually.
[22:06] <David O`Cain> You're just itching for a fight, Masaki. :P
[22:06] <LadyAlice> My soul and mind were trapped in Wonderland on my second visit there, and my body deteriorated in rutledge's.
[22:07] <LadyAlice> Eventually, my body died, and with no where to go, my soul latched onto the gold pocketwatch, an heirloom of my family.
[22:07] * Indigo glances to Furu, "And how old are you?
[22:07] <Indigo> Actually, Masaki
[22:07] <LadyAlice> I didn't come to until Euri found my pocketwatch and she began to sustain me.
[22:07] <LadyAlice> And has been doing so ever since.
[22:07] <LadyAlice> I was her first, actually.
[22:07] * LadyAlice shrugs.
[22:07] <Future Furu> I don't think you've ever told me that story before.
[22:09] <LadyAlice> It never came up, I suppose.
[22:09] <Future Furu> Mm. You weren't exactly Miss Sharing back when we were together.
[22:09] <LadyAlice> No. It took me a long time to open up to people.
[22:10] * Future Furu is being very mature and not making the obvious sex reference here.
[22:10] <Indigo> I could take you up on that now if you would like
[22:10] <Masaki O`Cain> heh..sure
[22:11] * Masaki O`Cain grins "I'm up for it"
[22:11] * David O`Cain sighs, "I knew it."
[22:11] <Indigo> Alright
[22:12] * Indigo is away: budokai, then?
[22:12] <Future Furu> You seem to have gotten...better. In general, really.
[22:12] * Masaki O`Cain is away: sure
[22:13] <LadyAlice> Well, with Haak leaving for Euri for however long he went on his space adventures for, I realized she really needed someone to rely on, and I filled in for her.
[22:13] *** Amanda Sharlan has left #suburbansenshi2
[22:13] <LadyAlice> Helped take care of her kid, helped her deal with that Fruminda fiasco, her parents and sister perishing in the tsunami, her childhood friend coming back to try and destroy her life, you know, the usual sort of things.
[22:14] * Eitak_Razal spins around
[22:14] <Eitak_Razal> The story will go on forever. (物語は永遠に続く。, ?) (As long as) the slender fingers return to the first page, (か細い指を一頁目に戻すように, ?) As if picking up the next volume. (あるいは二巻目を手に取るように。, ?) Once again denying reality to the reader. (その読み手が、現実を拒み続けるかぎり。, ?)
[22:15] <Future Furu> Yeah, we've all been there.
[22:15] * LadyAlice nods, looking a little forlorne.
[22:15] <LadyAlice> I assume you've been through your share of hardships over the years, is that right?
[22:17] <Future Furu> You'd be right. I've lost...people. Entire worlds. Years of my life. All of it.
[22:18] <LadyAlice> And yet we still go on, don't we.
[22:18] <Future Furu> That's what people do.
[22:19] <Future Furu> Humanity, we cheat like hell and we never stop.
[22:19] * LadyAlice chuckles, "We most certainly do."
[22:19] <Eitak_Razal> Unknown whereabouts. (正体不明で消息不明。, ?) Fire-spouting dragons and cloud-breathing giants. (火をふく竜とか雲つく巨人。, ?) Illusions are silhouetted apparitions. (トリックアートは影絵の魔物。, ?) Adult conversations are, perhaps, full of lies. (けだし、大人の話はデマカセだらけ。 , ?) The truth lies within Professor Dodgson's head. (真相はドジスン教授の頭の中に。, ?)
[22:19] <@ryan> your mom cheats like hell and never stops. seriously. she's always cheating a board games. she's a dirty cheater.
[22:20] <Future Furu> That's where I got it from!
[22:20] <@ryan> you damn dirty cheater
[22:22] * LadyAlice looks at Ryan.
[22:22] *** Ryan is Awesomness in living form. Try not to go blind by staring too long. A scruffy white man who appears to be in his 30's with dirty blonde hair and blue eyes. He's decked out in modern clothing and packing some heat under his arms. More information about him is Here.
His image Song is: "Short Change Hero" by The Heavy.
Ryan is an IRC Operator - Channel Administrator
[22:22] <Future Furu> Well I don't cheat at everything.
[22:23] <LadyAlice> Oh no?
[22:24] <Future Furu> Well...okay, maybe everything.
[22:24] * LadyAlice smiles again.
[22:27] <Future Furu> Ah, geez, I need to get going. Before I do that, though...
[22:28] * Future Furu draws his own card out of his sleeve and tosses it to Alice.
[22:28] * LadyAlice catches it and sees that it's an ace of hearts.
[22:29] * LadyAlice blinks and notices something different, grinning wickedly.
[22:29] <Future Furu> See you soon, Alice.
[22:29] *** Future Furu [man-machine@[REDACTED]] has left #suburbansenshi2
[22:30] * LadyAlice smiles happily to herself as she puts it away in her pocket.
[22:33] * Eitak_Razal stops spinning
[22:33] <David O`Cain> Got dizzy, Eitak?
[22:33] * Amanda Sharlan wanders back in
[22:35] <LadyAlice> So there were other people here.
[22:36] * LadyAlice thinks to herself, recalling some fond memories.
[22:36] * Amanda Sharlan sits down on the sofa again
[22:37] <Eitak_Razal> No
[22:37] <Eitak_Razal> Just ran out of cyrptic things to say
[22:39] * LadyAlice gets to her feet and takes the card back out of her pocket.
[22:39] <Amanda Sharlan> Well then how about some non-cryptic things?
[22:39] * Masaki O`Cain is back
[22:39] * LadyAlice eyes the address as it flickers in the inside of the heart.
[22:40] * Indigo is back
[22:40] <David O`Cain> Welcome back, you two. Good fight?
[22:40] * Indigo nods
[22:40] <Masaki O`Cain> yup
[22:40] * LadyAlice puts it back in her pocket and picks up her trenchcoat from where she left it on the sofa earlier.
[22:40] <David O`Cain> Bet you feel much better now, Masaki. :/
[22:41] * LadyAlice puts on her long, brown trenchcoat.
[22:41] <Indigo> Where did you find that sort of strength?
[22:41] <Masaki O`Cain> eh..Matsumi found a way to bring out my Spirit Power
[22:41] <Masaki O`Cain> apperently I have a high amount
[22:42] <Indigo> Fascinating.
[22:42] * LadyAlice takes her leave for the night., deciding to spend it someplace new as she follows the directions to the address listed on the card.
[22:42] * Indigo sits down on a couch.
[22:42] * Amanda Sharlan yawns
[22:42] *** LadyAlice [wonderlandsavior@themind.euri] has left #suburbansenshi2 (A nice change of pace.)
[22:43] * ThePaleElf leans on a wall quietly
[22:45] * David O`Cain throws a pillow at Masaki
[22:46] <Masaki O`Cain> ow hey!!!!
[22:46] <Masaki O`Cain> what the heck, hon???
[22:47] <David O`Cain> Well, I was trying to talk to you earlier this evening before you and Indgio fought.
[22:47] <David O`Cain> ^Indigo
[22:48] <Masaki O`Cain> about what again?
[22:49] <David O`Cain> How you were doing.
[22:50] <Masaki O`Cain> I'm doing fine
[22:51] <David O`Cain> That's good to hear. Have rehearsals started?
[22:52] <David O`Cain> I, uh, kinda forgot if they have.
[22:52] <Masaki O`Cain> not yet
[22:52] <Masaki O`Cain> this prometheus thing ground it to a halt...AGAIN
[22:53] <Amanda Sharlan> Not our fault everyone was so paranoid...>.>
[22:54] <Masaki O`Cain> well no
[22:54] <Masaki O`Cain> it's just that Matsumi had to stop rehersials while she got ready to attend
[22:55] <Masaki O`Cain> we're going back into them tomorrow
[22:55] <David O`Cain> Oh, okay. What'd you do instead of rehearsing?
[22:56] <Masaki O`Cain> did tours
[22:56] <David O`Cain> That kinda explained a bit why I hadn't seen you at home for a few nights.
[22:58] <ThePaleElf> Do you two not talk or something?
[22:59] * David O`Cain just looks at Mormeril
[23:00] <Masaki O`Cain> ...we just don't talk work
[23:05] <David O`Cain> Hey, I'm gonna head on home. Would you like to come with me, Masaki, or do you wanna stay here a bit longer?
[23:05] <Masaki O`Cain> I'll come with you
[23:06] <David O`Cain> Alrighty then.
[23:06] *** David O`Cain [JRPMoonSoldier@MKArmyRanger.mil] has quit IRC (Let's go.)
[23:09] *** Masaki O`Cain has left #suburbansenshi2
[23:09] *** Matsumi Kaze [AirGal@QTech.com] has joined #suburbansenshi2
[23:09] <@spiritflame> irasshai Matsumi Kaze
[23:09] * Matsumi Kaze walks in, putting her car keys into her pocket
[23:11] <Matsumi Kaze> well...that's done
[23:12] * Amanda Sharlan waves to Matsumi
[23:13] <Matsumi Kaze> oh hey amanda
[23:14] <Matsumi Kaze> what's up
[23:15] <Amanda Sharlan> Nothing really...
[23:17] <Amanda Sharlan> I've just been thinking.
[23:17] <Matsumi Kaze> about what
[23:18] * Amanda Sharlan sighs
[23:18] <Amanda Sharlan> Everything...
[23:20] <Matsumi Kaze> questioning your world?
[23:20] <Amanda Sharlan> No...not really...just everything happening inside it.
[23:21] * Matsumi Kaze nods
[23:32] <Matsumi Kaze> well I think this has been..thought provoking
[23:34] <Amanda Sharlan> I never thought that something like this would happen.
[23:35] <Yaijinden> That's the part that amuses me most.
[23:37] <Amanda Sharlan> Why do you say that?
[23:37] <Yaijinden> You were so sure you knew what you were getting yourself into!
[23:37] <Amanda Sharlan> We were!
[23:38] <Yaijinden> And then, suddenly, the stage expands dramatically.
[23:38] * Yaijinden spreads his arms wide
[23:38] <Amanda Sharlan> If things had been left alone we wouldn't be having this problem.
[23:39] <Yaijinden> This is the part of the story where I say "I told you so."
[23:39] <Amanda Sharlan> I don't care what you say...
[23:39] <ThePaleElf> The fault lies on you and tony alone
[23:39] <Yaijinden> No, Hazel chose to react as she did as well.
[23:39] <ThePaleElf> Had you dropped a hint to us. Even flat out told us, we would have backed off
[23:40] <Amanda Sharlan> We're not the ones that brought that Hazel back...
[23:40] <Yaijinden> You don't have to care for my answer, but you did ask. :D
[23:40] <ThePaleElf> No. That is a consquesne of your secrecty
[23:40] <Amanda Sharlan> It wasn't my call.
[23:41] <Amanda Sharlan> I would have been more than happy to tell you.
[23:41] <ThePaleElf> You got closer to Tony then anyone. You had a chance and many ways to spill the beans without him knowing
[23:41] <ThePaleElf> You could have approched Matsumi or Eitak or someone else in privite
[23:41] <ThePaleElf> Those two I'm sure would have kept quiet about it
[23:42] <ThePaleElf> But you didn't and let suspison fall upon you more and more.
[23:42] <Indigo> You neglect to realize how deep her loyalty runs.
[23:43] <ThePaleElf> There's a difference between Loyalty and being blind to reality
[23:43] <Indigo> No, you can be so loyal that you ARE blind to reality.
[23:43] <Amanda Sharlan> You act as if he wouldn't be able to tell I'd said something...
[23:43] <ThePaleElf> That is true
[23:44] <Indigo> Where you dedicate so much of yourself to someone and their cause
[23:44] <ThePaleElf> Could?
[23:44] <ThePaleElf> *Could he?
[23:44] <ThePaleElf> Does he have a wire tap on you?
[23:44] * Matsumi Kaze opens a ginger ale
[23:44] <Indigo> That even if you went behind their back, you'd be so overcome with the guilt.
[23:44] <Indigo> And he seems like the intuitive type.
[23:44] <Indigo> Just. From what I've heard.
[23:45] <Indigo> He sounds like a smart gentleman.
[23:45] <Indigo> Secretive, possibly wrong, but smart.
[23:45] <Amanda Sharlan> I couldn't...ever say anything...he picked up on some of my problems before I even knew about them myself.
[23:46] <ThePaleElf> I suggest distainceying yourself from him
[23:47] <Yaijinden> You would, yes.
[23:47] <Indigo> Do you hold any doubt in him, Amanda?
[23:48] <Amanda Sharlan> Only...that he intended to let himself die afterwards...
[23:48] <Amanda Sharlan> I didn't know about that...
[23:48] <Indigo> After his children were born?
[23:50] <Amanda Sharlan> Born...
[23:51] <Indigo> Created.
[23:51] <Indigo> Whatever they were
[23:51] <Yaijinden> The plot thickens!
[23:52] * Indigo raises an eyebrow
[23:52] <Amanda Sharlan> I guess he didn't need to exist anymore once Prometheus was connected...
[23:53] <Amanda Sharlan> But...since I can't find him...I can't ask...
[23:54] <Indigo> Has he gone off to die, then?
[23:54] <Matsumi Kaze> he dissappeared?
[23:54] <Indigo> Or is he planning something else?
[23:55] <Amanda Sharlan> I doubt he'll leave me alone to deal with Hazel...he was pretty well renewed last night.
[23:55] <Amanda Sharlan> I have no clue what he's doing.
[23:55] <Indigo> mmm
[23:55] <Indigo> Retaliation is possible against Hazel
[23:56] <Indigo> I don't know her either but she doesn't seem particularly stable.
[23:56] <Indigo> Just from seeing her around here
[23:56] <Amanda Sharlan> She's trying to destroy something she helped create...
[23:57] <Yaijinden> She's not that attached to the project.
[23:57] <Yaijinden> Seed money and a chance to see what exactly he was willing to do. Mobilize a potential thorn for others.
[23:57] <Amanda Sharlan> No, but without her, it may not have even been possible.
[23:58] <Yaijinden> Which, entertainingly enough, worked -exactly- as she had thought.
[23:59] <Yaijinden> You might be surprised as to how death can change a person.
[23:59] <Indigo> Give life and then take it away and what not?
[23:59] <Amanda Sharlan> Seems to be a recurring theme here
[00:00] <Yaijinden> She hates humans with a passion born from decades, centuries, of watching them destroy everything she'd ever cared for.
[00:00] <ThePaleElf> The dead don't stay dead
[00:00] <ThePaleElf> Even the undead don't stay that way
[00:00] <Yaijinden> Your father was a weapon and an experiment, nothing more.
[00:00] <Amanda Sharlan> Yet she didn't seem to care too much about me...
[00:01] <Yaijinden> You haven't tried to kill her yet.
[00:01] <Amanda Sharlan> If you hate something enough you don't care what it's done to you.
[00:02] <Yaijinden> There are other principles guiding her behavior, just as you can't be explained away as "Anthony Suthers Saved My Life So Now I Work For Him."
[00:04] * Amanda Sharlan sighs
[00:05] <Yaijinden> You're less of a priority. If she thinks she can hurt him through hurting you, I'm sure you'll be a target sooner rather than later.
[00:05] <Yaijinden> Beware the wrath of a patient soul, as they say.
[00:05] <Amanda Sharlan> I suppose we'll have to see.
[00:08] <Yaijinden> Or, instead of merely waiting to see, you can seize the future yourself.
[00:08] <Indigo> It could be used as an advantage
[00:08] <Amanda Sharlan> And what exactly do you think I can do?
[00:09] <Indigo> It is not what I think you can do
[00:09] <Indigo> It's what you can do
[00:10] <Yaijinden> You're a creative sort.
[00:10] <Indigo> The tactical figher would take advantage of not being in their enemy's scope
[00:10] <Amanda Sharlan> If she's truly as dangerous as she seems, then I'm not sure I'll be of much help.
[00:11] <Indigo> With that mindset, you're right.
[00:11] <Indigo> Because you're going to do nothing.
[00:11] * Matsumi Kaze sits on the Q sofa
[00:12] <Indigo> You're going to give up right here.
[00:12] <Indigo> Is that what you want?
[00:12] <Amanda Sharlan> All I can do is bring my training to the forefront and hope it's enough...
[00:12] <Amanda Sharlan> I don't have any special powers or secret abilities.
[00:12] * Indigo thinks about it
[00:13] * Yaijinden smiles. It is not a wholesome smile.
[00:13] <Indigo> Then do what you think is best.
[00:14] <Yaijinden> If your power is not enough, gain more.
[00:14] <Amanda Sharlan> I've never had anything outside of my assassin training.
[00:15] <Yaijinden> To most mortals, that still marks you as near-superhuman.
[00:16] <Amanda Sharlan> Really?
[00:18] <Indigo> mmmhm.
[00:21] <Amanda Sharlan> I don't intend to just sit by and let her destroy all this work
[00:21] <Indigo> In that case
[00:21] <Indigo> you have set of skills that you're proficient in. Use them.
[00:22] <ThePaleElf> Or not. You threw them away remember
[00:22] <ThePaleElf> You want a normal life
[00:22] <Amanda Sharlan> I threw away the lifestyle, not the abilities
[00:22] <ThePaleElf> Same thing in this case
[00:23] <Amanda Sharlan> Not really.
[00:23] <ThePaleElf> If I threw away the lifestyle of a Dark Ranger, I'd be throwing away my training as well
[00:23] <ThePaleElf> One needs to pratice to keep their skills sharp
[00:23] <ThePaleElf> That's part of a lifestyle
[00:24] <Amanda Sharlan> I haven't forgotten my training.
[00:24] <Amanda Sharlan> And I haven't stopped using my skills.
[00:24] <Amanda Sharlan> I just use them differently.
[00:25] <ThePaleElf> Then can you call it a normal life?
[00:27] <Amanda Sharlan> Yes.
[00:27] <Amanda Sharlan> I can.
[00:27] <Amanda Sharlan> Because I'm not caught in the lie I was living.
[00:28] <Indigo> Normal is a subjective term
[00:28] <Indigo> Just saying.
[00:30] <ThePaleElf> If you say so
[00:30] * ThePaleElf turns and walks out
[00:31] *** ThePaleElf has left #suburbansenshi2
[00:31] * Amanda Sharlan frowns
[00:31] <Amanda Sharlan> Anything is better than what I was going through before this.
[00:32] <Indigo> I can't comment on that.
[00:32] <Indigo> I don't know what you went through. But.
[00:32] <Indigo> You have something to fight for, so do it.
[00:33] <Amanda Sharlan> Now if she'd just stop running away...
[00:34] * Matsumi Kaze sits outside of the hotel, watching a UFO rising out of the sea
[00:34] * Matsumi Kaze sips her ginger ale
[00:34] <Yaijinden> That's the fun part.
[00:35] <Yaijinden> I can smell the skill in your unguarded moments, but you haven't begun to tap what is possible.
[00:36] <Amanda Sharlan> Then perhaps I ought to find someone who can help me with that.
[00:36] <Matsumi Kaze> you have yet to grasp your full potential
[00:36] * Matsumi Kaze watches as Z-KAT starts to fire on the UFO which is firing back
[00:37] <Matsumi Kaze> hey...anyone know what the weather is going to be like tomorrow?
[00:37] <Indigo> !rei.bot weather
[00:37] <Matsumi Kaze> thanks, Indigo
[00:38] * the UFO explodes, revealing a large humanoid figure with flashing lights on it's chest, spinning glowing eyes and three fingers
[00:39] <Matsumi Kaze> so...what are you guys going to do tomorrow
[00:39] <Amanda Sharlan> I don't know yet.
[00:40] <Yaijinden> Whatever strikes my attention.
[00:41] <Matsumi Kaze> eh..I'm probably going to work more on the production
[00:41] * Ultraman Ajax appears and starts to battle with the giant alien
[00:41] <Indigo> I'm going back up the mountain. And staying there.

[11:08] <Matsumi Kaze> how goes it
[11:08] * LadyAlice covers her smiling mouth with her hand and looks over at Matsumi.
[11:08] * Matsumi Kaze puts aside one paper and looks over the next one
[11:09] <Future Furu> It goes wonderfully.
[11:09] <Matsumi Kaze> glad to hear it
[11:10] <LadyAlice> Matsumi, were there two of you yesterday?
[11:10] <Matsumi Kaze> mmhm
[11:10] <LadyAlice> I thought I was seeing double but I wasn't sure.
[11:10] <Matsumi Kaze> the other was Joanna...my clone
[11:11] <LadyAlice> You have a clone now?
[11:11] <Future Furu> Ah, clones. It's always so fun to have multiple-yous.
[11:11] <LadyAlice> Isn't there enough Matsumi's in the world?
[11:12] <Matsumi Kaze> there's only one of her..she was to be my decoy at a function
[11:12] * Matsumi Kaze looks at another piece of paper
[11:12] <Matsumi Kaze> but since that mission is done..I let her go
[11:13] * LadyAlice ponders this.
[11:13] <LadyAlice> Won't that put her in harms way from your enemies?
[11:14] <Future Furu> You know what they say. If you love your clone, set them free.
[11:14] <Matsumi Kaze> that's why I sent her to the US for a week
[11:14] <Future Furu> ...Well, okay, nobody says that. Except me, right now.
[11:14] <Matsumi Kaze> I don't have alot of...heh, good one furu....I don't have alot of enemies in the US
[11:14] * LadyAlice snickers at Furu's joke.
[11:14] <LadyAlice> Isn't that where you started?
[11:14] * Matsumi Kaze pulls out her phone and looks at the text
[11:15] * Matsumi Kaze smirks and texts back
[11:15] <Matsumi Kaze> yes that is where I was born and started off
[11:16] <LadyAlice> Did your enemies follow you to Japan? Or did you get rid of them all?
[11:17] * Future Furu rubs his chin.
[11:17] <Matsumi Kaze> all the ones I had in the US are now dead
[11:17] * Future Furu notices he has stubble, which soon disappears because shapeshifting is the best power
[11:17] <LadyAlice> But...aren't there
[11:17] <LadyAlice> Isn't America filled with crimes and things anyway?
[11:18] <Matsumi Kaze> not really
[11:18] <Matsumi Kaze> unless you live in like..chicago...or New York
[11:18] <Future Furu> Or Detroit or St. Louis or Seattle or LA
[11:19] <Matsumi Kaze> she's gone to St Paul

[11:21] <Adair> Good morning.

[11:21] <Matsumi Kaze> hm?
[11:22] <LadyAlice> Nice outfit.
[11:23] <Future Furu> Hey!
[11:23] * Future Furu chuckles at the tug.
[11:24] <Adair> Thank you.
[11:24] * Adair looks at LadyAlice.
[11:24] *** LadyAlice is wearing http://images.wikia.com/americanmcgeesalice/images/2/2f/WonderlandDress.png and on her neck is a chain-choker-collar. She has green eyes and straight brown hair, though sometimes she'll have blue eyes and blonde hair.
Her image Song is: "Thundering Destruction" by Shiro Hamaguchi.
[11:25] <Future Furu> Clearly having long hair was a good choice for me.
[11:25] * LadyAlice grins wickedly but says nothing.
[11:26] <Adair> Long hair is a bother at times
[11:26] <LadyAlice> It's so true.
[11:26] <LadyAlice> You wouldn't believe how long it took me to learn how to easily get blood out of my hair.
[11:27] <LadyAlice> At one point in my life, I had to live with blood-matted hair for around three months. It was pretty awful.
[11:27] <Future Furu> God, yes! That's such a pain. Especially when it dries and gets all crusty.
[11:29] * LadyAlice nods emphatically.
[11:30] <Matsumi Kaze> I know what you mean
[11:30] <Matsumi Kaze> I had the same problem once
[11:30] <Future Furu> Eventually I figured out how to make my hair vampiric, though, so everything worked out.
[11:31] <LadyAlice> So it just sucks up all that blood?
[11:32] <Future Furu> Yep, and feeds the remaining life energy into me. Cool, huh?
[11:32] <Matsumi Kaze> how are you doing, Adair
[11:34] <Matsumi Kaze> hm
[11:34] <LadyAlice> Sounds cooler than anything I can do.
[11:35] <Future Furu> Oh, you can do all kinds of neat things on your own. I can't produce anything as sharp as your knife.
[11:35] <Matsumi Kaze> so what's up for you two today?
[11:35] * LadyAlice bats away his compliment.
[11:37] <Future Furu> Also the thing where you go all black and white and murdery is hot.
[11:37] <Future Furu> Absolutely nothing as far as I know, Matsumi.
[11:38] <Matsumi Kaze> that's good
[11:38] * LadyAlice chortles softly.
[11:39] <Future Furu> Plans could change later though, hm?

[11:42] <Future Furu> Fire.

[11:42] <Future Furu> Fiery explosives.
[11:44] <Adair> Fire should do fine, thank you ^^
[11:44] <Adair> I would hate to use explosives and injure someone.
[11:44] <LadyAlice> Lots of sharp knives?
[11:45] <Future Furu> Knives are your answer to every problem.
[11:46] <LadyAlice> Oh that's not true.
[11:46] <LadyAlice> Teapots, pepper grinders, and umbrellas are pretty useful too.
[11:47] <Future Furu> You have the strangest weapons.
[11:48] <LadyAlice> Look who's talking. You're one of the strangest weapons I've ever met.
[11:48] * Future Furu grins.
[11:49] <Future Furu> That's the sweetest thing anyone has said to me in at least fifty years.
[11:49] * LadyAlice laughs harshly.
[11:49] <LadyAlice> How adorkable.
[11:51] <Adair> Hm... Fifty years and no one has said anything sweet to you? How pitiful
[11:52] <Future Furu> "Adorkable"? Modern slang is slowly ruining your mind.
[11:52] <Future Furu> Well I haven't been in a position for anyone to say anything sweet for that long.
[11:52] <LadyAlice> Ugh, I know right? Spending so much time with the others has been kiling me.
[11:53] <Matsumi Kaze> you should meet my grandmother...she's pretty old fashion in some ways
[11:54] * Future Furu totally casually lays down on the couch in such a way that leaves his head in Alice's lap. Personal space what is personal space
[11:57] <LadyAlice> Is she?
[11:57] * LadyAlice lightly strokes her fingers through his long green hair.
[11:59] <Matsumi Kaze> mmhm
[11:59] <Matsumi Kaze> heh I can call her down if you want to meet her
[11:59] * Adair is away 
[11:59] <LadyAlice> Does she live here?
[11:59] <Future Furu> Now we're in the "things I haven't had done to me in about seventy years" range.
[12:02] <Matsumi Kaze> she lives here, yes
[12:03] <LadyAlice> /me smiles down at him and refrains from doing anything more than playing with his hair.
[12:04] * Matsumi Kaze sends a text to her grandmother
[12:05] * Future Furu 's feet dangle off the edge of the sofa arm since he's so dang tall.
[12:05] * Matsumi Kaze gets a text back "she says she'll be downstairs in a second"
[12:06] * LadyAlice nods, "Alright."
[12:06] <Matsumi Kaze> you might like her..she's very nice

[12:10] <Matsumi Kaze> well...she died at 89...then she was a ghost.....and as a ghost she took the form of herself when she was 16...and then she came to life somehow...
[12:10] <Sarah Christensson> it's nice to meet you
[12:11] <Adair> Well my mother looks only old enough to be my sister...so I don't question relations
[12:11] * LadyAlice stares at the girl with a mild look of disgust.
[12:11] <LadyAlice> Dead things should stay dead.
[12:12] <Future Furu> Harsh.
[12:12] <Sarah Christensson> well...it's not as if I know how I came back...
[12:12] <Adair> There's a man an his wife who were thought to be dead and thought they were going to die when they fell to something they call the Abyss
[12:12] <Matsumi Kaze> hey! be nice to her!

[12:14] <LadyAlice> 1) You can't. 2) I'm pretty sure Euri would have a few choice words with you if you did.
[12:15] <Matsumi Kaze> 1. why can't I
[12:15] <Future Furu> No one is breaking anything.
[12:15] <Matsumi Kaze> 2. Euri should have better control over you
[12:16] <LadyAlice> Euri doesn't control me or own me.
[12:16] <LadyAlice> And if you were to try to hurt me, you'd be in for a surprise.

[12:18] <LadyAlice> What, is this gang up on Alice day?
[12:18] <MusicArtisan> If it means my wife's best friend is happier, yes ^^
[12:19] <LadyAlice> Go give her a lolipop, I'm sure she'd be fine.
[12:19] <Lobelia Carlini> I would say more that you need to know manners
[12:19] <LadyAlice> For someone who's nearly 90, she sure isn't a mature individual.
[12:19] <LadyAlice> I know manners, thanks.
[12:20] <LadyAlice> For people to get so offended about me simply stating my opinion is absurd.
[12:20] <LadyAlice> I didn't threaten to hurt her, though I could have easily.
[12:20] <Matsumi Kaze> you have to use tact
[12:21] <MusicArtisan> Tact is very important
[12:21] <LadyAlice> I don't have to use anything.
[12:21] <MusicArtisan> Sometimes you just have to smile and let things play out without the truth being seen ^^
[12:21] <LadyAlice> Or instead of lying to myself and others and keeping my truths hidden, I could just let it all out.
[12:22] <MusicArtisan> I've tried that
[12:22] <MusicArtisan> it ended poor;y
[12:22] <MusicArtisan> poorly
[12:23] <Matsumi Kaze> if you wish...but I expect you to apologize to Sarah at some point
[12:23] <LadyAlice> I won't apologize, so you'll be waiting for a long time for it.
[12:23] <LadyAlice> What happened to you, blonde guy? If you don't mind me asking.
[12:25] <MusicArtisan> Me? I saw some memories from my first love...
[12:25] <LadyAlice> Memories from the perspective of your first love?
[12:25] <LadyAlice> That's... sad.
[12:25] <MusicArtisan> Yes
[12:26] <MusicArtisan> I went insane and tried to destroy the world and send it into the Abyss...luckily my wife and my best friend both helped me realize what I was doing and what I was throwing away
[12:27] <MusicArtisan> I had had a family with my wife by that time..and our children had all married and started families of their own as well...
[12:27] <LadyAlice> What is this Abyss that keeps being mentioned?
[12:27] <MusicArtisan> The Abyss....is a place where chains roam freely...it's sort of... a "netherworld" of sorts.
[12:28] <MusicArtisan> the daughter of my first love, is the vessel for the core of that place, and so is the Will of the Abyss.
[12:28] <LadyAlice> chains?
[12:29] <MusicArtisan> When I attempted to kill my best friend, we also fell into the abyss, and I realized what I was doing and grabbed onto my wife as we fell
[12:29] <MusicArtisan> They're weapons of sort
[12:29] <MusicArtisan> Oz isn't here at the moment so I cannot summon B-Rabbit.

[12:30] * LadyAlice watches as the two of them leave, her eyes steely.
[12:31] * Future Furu is enjoying this view so much right now.
[12:32] <MusicArtisan> Bloodstained Black Rabbit
[12:32] <MusicArtisan> one of the most powerful chains
[12:32] <LadyAlice> Sounds like...something I'd enjoy using.
[12:33] <MusicArtisan> I hold the contract with Oz.
[12:33] <LadyAlice> Oz?
[12:33] <MusicArtisan> That is the B-Rabbit's name
[12:34] <LadyAlice> The names of your weapons have names?
[12:36] * LadyAlice leans back on the sofa again.
[12:38] <MusicArtisan> Bloodstained Black Rabbit is just what he's referred to as by those who do not know his true name
[12:38] <LadyAlice> Ooh...
[12:38] <LadyAlice> So these weapons are alive? chilling.
[12:38] <Future Furu> You're getting way interested in these weapons, huh?
[12:38] <MusicArtisan> I guess they are alive in a sense...
[12:39] <MusicArtisan> But there is no way for you to legally or illegaly contract now as we
[12:39] <LadyAlice> Well you did just refer to it as a he, it made it seem like they're alive.
[12:39] <LadyAlice> What?
[12:39] <MusicArtisan> Glen and I, have closed the gate to the Abyss permanantly
[12:39] <LadyAlice> Ah. I understand.
[12:39] <MusicArtisan> Glen's sister, Lacie, was my first love.
[12:40] <MusicArtisan> But that's a story for another time

[12:41] <MusicArtisan> What's your tale, brat?
[12:41] <LadyAlice> ...brat?
