[00:45] <@spiritflame> Current Location is: SOMEWHERE CHILDREN ARE NOT
[00:45] *** Abe Hisoka has joined #suburbansenshi3
[00:45] <@spiritflame> konbanwa abe hisoka
[00:45] *** Paisley Pythia Peinforte has set a new puzzle
[00:45] * Abe Hisoka has finally finished braiding her hair.
[00:45] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Okay.
[00:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You take that Sofa there and try to relax
[00:46] * Abe Hisoka flops back in an unladylike way.
[00:46] <Persephone> Oh hey what's going on in this thread guys
[00:46] *** Paisley Pythia Peinforte has set a new puzzle
[00:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ...
[00:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The f[BLEEP]k puzzle
[00:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> anyway
[00:47] <Persephone> My clone is about to pop out a kid and I'm kind of trying to you know, avoid the hormones
[00:47] <Abe Hisoka> The puzzle's gone insane.
[00:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We're going to examine Abe's mind and possibly her soul
[00:47] *** Paisley Pythia Peinforte has set a new puzzle
[00:47] <Persephone> Hot.
[00:47] <Abe Hisoka> This won't be dangerous at all!
[00:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Oh it probably will be
[00:47] <Abe Hisoka> It might actually be really dangerous but I think we're game for that.
[00:47] <Persephone> Considering it's Abe, yeah.
[00:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[00:48] <Persephone> Cool can I play?
[00:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Mm hmm
[00:48] <Abe Hisoka> It's like a brain orgy I am so game.
[00:48] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte lights her pipe
[00:48] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte steadies her nerves, her mind
[00:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Okay so I am going to link the three of us into a steady-state mental link.
[00:48] <Persephone> I'm kind of dodging getting the spaghetti and lox.
[00:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sort of like a summoning circle
[00:49] <Persephone> (seriously Celeste eats that weird s[BLEEP]t)
[00:49] <Persephone> Okay sounds good.
[00:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We'll appear in Abe's mindscape
[00:49] <Masked Figure> Shall I keep an I on thy corpral forms lest someone draw musaches on you?
[00:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The goal is to suss out what the higher rationale for her existence and activities is.
[00:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I am capable of splitting my awareness.
[00:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I will beat the s[BLEEP]t out of anyone who tries
[00:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> At any rate
[00:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'll leave it somewhat open so if others want to link in they can.
[00:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We good?
[00:50] <Abe Hisoka> Everyone on Hisoka-- been here, done that.
[00:50] * Persephone offers the thumbs up
[00:51] <@spiritflame> ATTENTION: Persephone is already registered. Check your password or enter a new name.
[00:51] <Persephone> Everyone in Hisoka probably has been done too
[00:51] <Abe Hisoka> Bring it.
[00:51] * Persephone eyebrow waggles
[00:52] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte lights a flame in the center of the room
[00:52] * Abe Hisoka thumbs up :D
[00:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Look into the flame.
[00:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It will naturally center your minds.
[00:52] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte closes her eyes and then...
[00:52] *** BAM. It all seems to go black for those in the circle. Except for the flame, and the three of you
[00:53] *** from here Abe's mindscape will start to fill in~
[00:53] <Persephone> Welp...
[00:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> "Why."
[00:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Start with that question.
[00:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> See what emeerges.
[00:54] <Persephone> Are we asking or is Abe?
[00:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Abe really.
[00:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It has to come from her. Atleast at first.
[00:54] *** For those who have never been in the mists, it's swirling colors and dense fog. There's no sense of up or down. While your muscles will you to breathe, there's no air. But you don't need it. Things move on endlessly. From the swirling colors to blackness.
[00:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Once the mental constructs emerge then we can take part.
[00:55] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte forces herself to detach ala Neo
[00:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Beautiful.
[00:55] <Persephone> It's like Interstice...
[00:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Reminds me of the World Tree and what's around it.
[00:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So this is her world now.
[00:57] *** Shattered pieces of worlds twist around you. Like mirrors, they show bits. Faces. Some you recognize. Some only vaguely. Like memories. Or that one guy who used to come to the HOTEL but he has a beard for whatever reason. They loop. Some are nearly exactly alike.
[00:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The multiverse...
[00:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Oh f[BLEEP]k it's Chris J.
[00:59] <Persephone> Is that Duo? When the f[BLEEP]k did he get the Williamsburg beard?
[00:59] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte forces herself to ignore him but it's hard because his face is so recognizable and that fascination he had with the dog named mina was so strange even though he was before her time Paisley knew him as thing of legend.
[01:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Okay...
[01:00] *** Larger pieces pass. You would almost swear beings are pounding on the glass. Shouting. There's no sounds from any. And after a short time many of the prominent ones are pushed aside by a curvy figure with long, deep blue hair.
[01:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> A commonality...
[01:01] <Abe Hisoka> This really is a f[BLEEP]king mess.
[01:01] <Persephone> Isn't that someone who used to come here?
[01:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Do you recognize that woman?
[01:01] <Persephone> I mean, blue hair, it could be anyone.
[01:02] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte summons an infodial
[01:02] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte pores back through her memories of the hotel
[01:02] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte tries to see if she's ever seen this woman or a picture of her
[01:02] *** She turns. Looks at you oddly. Scars trace along her jaw where something once seems to be attached.
[01:03] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte looks closer at her jaw
[01:03] <Yura Diro> You have a mirror somewhere in here...
[01:03] * Persephone looks at Yura Diro.
[01:03] *** Yura Diro is your average everyday Yura Diro

[01:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I can make one.
[01:04] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is good at that
[01:04] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte mentally does the Block Transfer Computations and creates a mirror
[01:04] * Yura Diro twists through the mists like she's swimming, all around the group. She's deathly pale, and a dark hole is settled over her stomach.
[01:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Will this do?
[01:04] <Masked Figure> ....
[01:04] <Masked Figure> A hollow.
[01:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You're a Hollow?
[01:04] <Persephone> Isn't that uh.
[01:05] <Persephone> Arrancar?
[01:05] <Yura Diro> Arrancar.
[01:05] <Persephone> Jaw thing and the hole
[01:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Ah.
[01:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm not up-to-date on it
[01:06] <Yura Diro> Do you know the snake? I miss him. He left.
[01:06] * Abe Hisoka grumbles.
[01:06] <Abe Hisoka> She's-- I'm not bright. Like this.
[01:07] <Persephone> Snake.
[01:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I think I saw a snake one once.
[01:07] <Persephone> Snake snake snake....
[01:07] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte flips through her Infodial
[01:07] <Persephone> Snake...
[01:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Amoros something?
[01:07] <Persephone> Was he green?
[01:07] <Persephone> It's probably another damn Furu
[01:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> One of the myriad Furu?
[01:07] <Yura Diro> Yes! The snake!
[01:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Havent' seen him in a loneg time.
[01:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I think he showed up once after I arrived.
[01:08] <Yura Diro> He forgot. I miss him.
[01:08] <Abe Hisoka> He got married to Allison. He's having a kid.
[01:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Ahh :<
[01:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ...............
[01:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> (WAIT WHAT THAT'S WHERE SHE GOT THE BABY FROM WHAT)
[01:08] <Persephone> who ISN'T having a kid nowadays
[01:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Me. You're welcome.
[01:09] <Yura Diro> I forget why we came here. He just wanted to stay. I had nowhere else to go.
[01:09] <Persephone> You and I both
[01:09] <Yura Diro> He's stupid. I'm hungry.
[01:10] <Persephone> That's an incredible combo
[01:11] * Yura Diro swims about in the mists. Looks at mirrors. Talks to herself.
[01:11] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You're "Yura" right.
[01:11] <Yura Diro> Ya! I'm Yura.
[01:11] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Vermellia's kin.
[01:11] <Yura Diro> Who?
[01:11] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Mmm.
[01:12] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte shows her a picuture of Vermellia on the infodial
[01:12] <Persephone> Daughter of Noriko.
[01:12] * Yura Diro squints.
[01:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well the timeline's disjointed.
[01:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She might not know.
[01:12] <Persephone> I thought Yura was Shaldra's sister?
[01:12] <Yura Diro> Oh. Other me. The Prime one. Sort of, I guess.
[01:12] <Persephone> O
[01:12] <Persephone> I'm confused.
[01:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That was a... "Mew na"
[01:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> or something
[01:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> and Yura was her child.
[01:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I think
[01:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I wasn't here for it
[01:13] <Masked Figure> Twas bound to be some confusion somewhere along the lines. Mayhap a family tree would be useful?
[01:13] <Abe Hisoka> The Yura from your world-- properly, was Mew's kid.
[01:13] <Persephone> So more like Vermy's cousin.
[01:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> but Vermellia would talk sometimes.
[01:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[01:13] <Abe Hisoka> I'm from an Alt. I was.
[01:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So Yuras seem to be performing this role in many mulitverses...
[01:14] <Yura Diro> I was on a mission. Went with Snake. Snake liked the idol girl.
[01:14] <Yura Diro> Snake decided to forget the mission. Snake went soft. I got bored. I got hungry.
[01:15] <Yura Diro> I got in trouble for eating.
[01:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> (Did he go around hidingin boxes)
[01:15] <Yura Diro> My mask broke.
[01:15] * Yura Diro looks sad.
[01:15] <Yura Diro> I forget the rest.
[01:15] <Yura Diro> Now I'm just hungry.
[01:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> :<
[01:16] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte makes her some delicious food, it's a mental construct but it should be good enough
[01:16] * Yura Diro dives forward and snaps possessively.
[01:16] * Yura Diro devours.
[01:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It sounds like you --- yeesh!
[01:17] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte gets out of the way
[01:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Like you got in trouble with your superiors and they... punished you.
[01:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And you ended up here?
[01:17] <Yura Diro> I got stuck. I didn't get to go home. I miss home.
[01:17] <Yura Diro> Snake made a new home.
[01:18] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte steeples her finger
[01:18] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte steeples her fingers
[01:18] <Persephone> Mmmm
[01:18] <Persephone> Someone without a home.
[01:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> How much of this is memory and how much of this is interface I wonder.
[01:18] <Persephone> Like a wanderer.
[01:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[01:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Abe, does this Yura have a "colour"?
[01:19] <Abe Hisoka> Ye. Not matching your world.
[01:20] <Abe Hisoka> It's really splintered.
[01:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hmm.
[01:20] <Abe Hisoka> Missing around her jaw.
[01:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Oh really...?
[01:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That would imply she's not whole... that a piece of her was taken
[01:20] <Abe Hisoka> I think my-- her mask was over her jaw.
[01:20] <Persephone> Well, Arrancar...
[01:20] <Abe Hisoka> It was broken off.
[01:21] <Persephone> yeah.
[01:21] <Abe Hisoka> That's when I-- she lost her memory.
[01:21] <Persephone> Part of the identity thing.
[01:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Right but wouldn't she still have colour under the broken area as that would be the new wholeness of her body?
[01:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If it's missing that means she's literally been incompleted.
[01:22] <Persephone> But it's a part of who she was that is gone.
[01:22] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte can't expalin what she means
[01:22] <Abe Hisoka> Not sure. As a construct of a soul I don't know how reality would handle an Arrancar -breaking- like that outside of her own realm.
[01:22] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Rgihjt
[01:22] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That's that's what I mean
[01:22] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What persephone said
[01:22] <Masked Figure> Arrancar means broken mask
[01:22] <Persephone> It's what identified her.
[01:22] <Masked Figure> They are formed by breaking their masks in the first place.
[01:22] <Persephone> So it might have been what tied her to a universe.
[01:23] <Abe Hisoka> But we-- they still have a piece.
[01:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Exactly.
[01:23] <Abe Hisoka> One that can't come off.
[01:23] <Masked Figure> However if it was removed instead of broken..
[01:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Masky's following me.
[01:23] <Yura Diro> Okay~!
[01:23] <Persephone> Thus the color of the universe would be there....
[01:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I wonder if that break wasn't intentional/
[01:23] * Yura Diro seems far too pleased to follow orders.
[01:24] <Persephone> Hmmm
[01:24] <Persephone> So are we finding the mask?
[01:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I meant MAsked Figure was following my train of thought but YES.
[01:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes Yura you Are following me
[01:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And we are going to try and find the rest of that mask.
[01:24] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I think it's important.
[01:24] * Yura Diro swims about. They gave her food! This is good!
[01:25] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte keeps making her BTC food items
[01:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> All right
[01:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Her color...
[01:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> can we somehow home on it?
[01:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> to find her point o forigin?
[01:26] <Abe Hisoka> It's possible. I've spotted weird colors before.
[01:26] <Persephone> Who took it?
[01:26] <Persephone> I'm guessing it was someone in the house.
[01:26] <Abe Hisoka> I forget where it was broken, honestly. Wasn't the House. Or HOTEL.
[01:26] <Abe Hisoka> but it involved you people I think.
[01:26] <Persephone> Hmmm.
[01:27] <Abe Hisoka> Ugh it's hard to remember old things in here.
[01:27] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well we'll find out.
[01:27] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> God we need an old hand.
[01:27] <Persephone> Is there anyone you are friends with back then? Maybe they would know?
[01:27] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm too new at this place don't know the history
[01:27] <Persephone> Uh.
[01:27] <Persephone> Hi
[01:27] <Masked Figure> I know the history but second hand.
[01:27] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Oh right.
[01:27] <Masked Figure> The spefics are lost on me.
[01:27] <Persephone> I may not be Indigo but I was once Indigo.
[01:27] <Yura Diro> I knew Snake!
[01:27] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You used to be Indigo
[01:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> all right we should be good
[01:28] <Abe Hisoka> Oh f[BLEEP]king f[BLEEP]k we know you knew Langley okay.
[01:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ....
[01:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I sense... jealously?
[01:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^Jealousy
[01:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Oh fucik me
[01:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I did a counselor troi
[01:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm sorry
[01:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> will not happen again
[01:29] * Abe Hisoka shrugs.
[01:29] <Persephone> Well let's try to find Furu Snake Arrancar in these memories.
[01:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Right.
[01:31] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> let me see...
[01:31] *** Paisley Pythia Peinforte draws from her deck of Cards Against Humanity™, creating a disposable Block Transfer Summon based on the following elements: let's Fighting Love, the Official Languages Act. La Loi sur les langues officielles, the One Piece rap, girls with glasses, and 8 oz. of sweet Mexican black-tar heroin.
[01:31] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte gets the girls with glasses high on heroin and gets them to help look into the other fragments as quickly as possible
[01:32] *** The mirrors swirl on. Bits and pieces. Old faces twist by. There's laughing, happy times. Fights. A party? That's Allison Blitz. It's easy to recognize the idol.
[01:32] <Persephone> Allison, hmmm.
[01:32] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> mmm.
[01:32] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She would be key
[01:33] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> as he ended up with her
[01:33] <Persephone> She had that stroke last year, it bugged Abe out, right?
[01:33] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ Girls with glasses! Find Allison Blitz! /Les filles avec des lunettes ! Trouver Allison Blitz !
[01:34] <Masked Figure> Ah, My orginal prospect for the Warrior of Light.
[01:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ Look for the snake man! / Cherchez l'homme de serpent !
[01:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> god damn bilingaulism.
[01:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Fiuck you Quebec
[01:34] <Persephone> How is that going?
[01:34] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte has them look for the two
[01:35] *** Mirrors settle in a pattern. Twist around them. Circle. A party. Allison and The Snake in a Gigai. Much younger. An angry ghost. A cracked mirror follows.
[01:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Allison had a temporal related stroke
[01:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> mm.
[01:35] <Persephone> Hmmm.
[01:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> thei cracked mirrior
[01:35] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte examines it
[01:35] <Masked Figure> This one is cracked. Why?
[01:35] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte also murders a typo demon because f[BLEEP]k
[01:35] <Persephone> Is that yura?
[01:36] <Persephone> Perhaps a ghost of her.
[01:36] <Persephone> If she wanders it's because she has no universe to call her own.
[01:37] *** Pieces are missing. It's hard to figure out what's reflected. All that seems to show are a smattering of blue colors crackling with light.
[01:37] <Masked Figure> Blue?
[01:37] <Persephone> Maybe this is her ghost following them once she was orphaned by the universe?
[01:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Blue is her color, is it not?
[01:38] <Abe Hisoka> What I can get from her is blue.
[01:38] <Persephone> Her hair is blue
[01:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Is it this same blue as from this mirror?
[01:38] <Abe Hisoka> You guys in your world are usually violet.
[01:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The light you got from her?
[01:38] <Abe Hisoka> Yeah. Uuuuususally colors don't flux like that.
[01:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So the universe behind this mirror
[01:39] <Persephone> Hmmm
[01:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We need to investigate?
[01:40] <Persephone> Blue's clues style.
[01:40] <Abe Hisoka> Well this is the Mists. I think. Feels like it. I guess these might be doorways?
[01:40] * Masked Figure makes sure the mask securely blocks their own coloration and blend into the background
[01:40] <Abe Hisoka> This is the Mists in my HEAD though I don't even know.
[01:40] <Persephone> Right
[01:41] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well, thoughts and reality intersect.
[01:41] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That's the Big Secret™
[01:41] <Persephone> Can we like, enter it?
[01:41] * Abe Hisoka shrugs!
[01:41] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> In theory yes. But it's very dangerous
[01:41] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> if we're using her mind as a conduit
[01:41] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> and something happens to her in there
[01:41] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> we are f[BLEEP]ked.
[01:42] * Persephone reaches out to touch the mirror
[01:42] <Abe Hisoka> You might be literally.
[01:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Be still my beating heart.
[01:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I've only been f[BLEEP]ked once and it was on a day that never happened by someone I don't even know who it was.
[01:43] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte decides to re-equip
[01:43] <Persephone> It wouldn't be the weirdest thing to happen to me
[01:43] *** Paisley Pythia Peinforte draws from her deck of Cards Against Humanity™, creating a disposable Block Transfer Summon based on the following elements: a tactical sonic rainnuke, the miracle of childbirth, a botched circumcision, asians who aren't good at math, and foreskin.
[01:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ..... ya we're in your head all right abe
[01:43] <Masked Figure> ....
[01:43] * Persephone touches the mirror.
[01:43] <Masked Figure> Those are surpinslgy already related.
[01:43] *** It's a hot, wet pulling sensation all around. Like the humidity suddenly spiked. And suddenly you have to reflexively remember to breathe. People stand, obscured, like a constant blur. The shouting seems to echo. Outlines are familiar. There's the Snake, Langley. And Allison. They're close.
[01:43] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte will find a way to make this work
[01:44] <Masked Figure> Discard and draw?
[01:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Not how this works.
[01:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> gott use em anyway
[01:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Look where we are
[01:44] <Persephone> Threesome?
[01:45] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> No they may be arguing?
[01:45] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte looks closer
[01:46] *** A ghost with wild blue hair leaps. There's magic. The Snake tires to stop the fight. Magic makes contact with the ghost's open jaw and a resounding SNAP echos through the room. More like in her head. Then everything gains the fog around you as the ghost crumples.
[01:46] <Masked Figure> ...That's not good
[01:46] <Persephone> That's where it happened.
[01:47] <Persephone> Cam we somehow get the mask here?
[01:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Magic.
[01:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hmm.
[01:47] *** Then things seem to reset and repeat.
[01:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We'd have to make an incusion
[01:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> 6incursion
[01:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Into that timeline.
[01:48] <Persephone> Hmmm
[01:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> F[BLEEP]k this is where I need Intern
[01:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> she's better at this
[01:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But we'd have to break in
[01:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> get the mask as it flies off
[01:48] <Persephone> Push her out of the way.
[01:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> get out
[01:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well if you want to save her
[01:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Then yes.
[01:48] <Persephone> Or that
[01:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It depends
[01:49] <Masked Figure> Why do we need to bring a real mask to a mental consturct?
[01:49] *** You can move freely around the room. Inspect things as you please. This runs on repeat over and over.
[01:49] <Persephone> Hmmm.
[01:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because like I said
[01:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> thoughts and reality intersect.
[01:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Quantum physics
[01:49] * Persephone tries to figure out who's room this is.
[01:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> thoughts / soul move particles
[01:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I could make a fake mask
[01:49] * Masked Figure tries something. They place a hand in line with the mask as it moves though the air.
[01:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> but uit wouldn't be the same.
[01:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The quantum signature has to match
[01:50] *** The room seems to be a rented hall of some kind. The decorations make it appear around christmas time.
[01:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It was a genuine piece of her that was lost.
[01:50] * Masked Figure tries to catch the memory of the mask, just to see.
[01:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Anyway.
[01:50] <Persephone> Christmas party
[01:50] *** The mask, pieces of it, fall into his hand. It's shattered. But they quickly break down into dust.
[01:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> First we need to decide.
[01:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Are we just making her whole here so she can pass on
[01:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Or are we saving her.
[01:51] <Persephone> If we save her we might lose Abe.
[01:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hmm.
[01:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If we made her whole in here
[01:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> it may make Abe Whole.
[01:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I think that's the better bet.
[01:52] <Persephone> Ok.
[01:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So we need that piece of mask.
[01:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Now it crumpled...
[01:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I trhink we need to be in that universe to grab it.
[01:52] <Persephone> Is Yura with us?
[01:53] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte looks around
[01:53] *** Yura's gone. She seems to have taken her place in the memory. A frenzy of feral, angry leaping. the fight.
[01:53] <Masked Figure> I can open a door in the real world to there if that is your descion
[01:53] <Persephone> Hmmm
[01:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm not opposed.
[01:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Abe, this is your life we're about to mess with
[01:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What say you?
[01:55] *** Abe seems to be missing as well. Diving into her own head might also be off limits.
[01:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> All right.
[01:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's up to us.
[01:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Persephone, you know her better than me.
[01:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Do we go?
[01:56] <Masked Figure> We can still ask her. We just need to retreat outside this scene
[01:56] <Masked Figure> I can't open the door in these mental passages anyways. We'd need to leave and come back
[01:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You go. I'll hold this place.
[01:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> See what she says
[01:57] *** It loops. Over and over. But something hasn't.
[01:57] <Masked Figure> ....
[01:57] <Masked Figure> ?
[01:57] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte observes
[01:57] <@spiritflame> ATTENTION: Persephone is already registered. Check your password or enter a new name.
[01:57] *** You've been here long enough that the hair on the back of your neck is on end. Goosebumps raise.
[01:57] <Persephone> Hmmm
[01:57] <Persephone> Let's go.
[01:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Ok.
[01:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> whatever it is, I'm feeling it too
[01:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Dimensional travel eh~
[01:59] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte knows how to do it the KArnian way
[01:59] *** The glow of the exit lights you from behind.
[01:59] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte takes a needle
[01:59] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte pricks her finger, drawing blood, which she drops into a flame
[01:59] * just tags along now.
[01:59] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte then lights her pipe, scries the smoke, finds the place and summons a time storm
[02:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> hang on~
[02:00] <Persephone> Hoo
[02:00] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte pulls them through the time storm to the place the memory mirror depicts
[02:01] *** Things dim further. The fog grows. And then clears. It's definitely christmas. Music plays. People are talking, faces recognizable and so old you don't even remember them. There's laughter. The smell of food.
[02:01] *** Allison and Langley are talking to each other, both surprisingly close. It's definitely a romantic moment.
[02:02] <Persephone> Ok. We might only be able to do this once
[02:02] * Masked Figure raises a hand and casts a lookaway apell
[02:02] <Masked Figure> *spell
[02:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Good work I was going to try something similar
[02:02] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte tries to recall what did not loop
[02:03] <Masked Figure> As long as we don't do anything to draw attention to ourselves we'll be as boring as the walls
[02:03] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> what didn't loop in the mmeories
[02:03] *** Then there's an otherworldly roar of rage. A shout of "MINE.". The flurry of blue hair leaping towards the couple and a burst of magic that can really only resemble that of a magical girl.
[02:04] * Persephone gets in position
[02:04] *** And while most people turn to look, a figure off to the back has been watching for quite some time. As it seems, most people haven't noticed it. It's lanky, limbs far too long and thin for its body, and seemingly faceless.
[02:04] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte has her asians who are not good at matdh from the summon stand by to catch on a fumble
[02:04] <Persephone> ...
[02:05] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte sees the lanky dude
[02:05] <Persephone> Paise
[02:05] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte uses the foreskin to wrap it up
[02:05] <Persephone> check him out
[02:05] <Persephone> I'll get the mask
[02:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> i wrapped him up like a fish
[02:06] <Persephone> .....
[02:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> seems he's already geassed somehow
[02:06] *** The fight rages. Magic and Spiritual power rage. People are moving in to try and break it up, powerful people with old, familiar faces. But the figure twists against the bonds. Struggles. Then turns to stare at you. Or at least you think so.
[02:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hello~
[02:07] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte deploys nothing less than the Powerof Childbirth against it. Enjoy 24 hours of BONE CRUSHINGLABOUR
[02:07] <Masked Figure> He's noticed us because we interacted diretly
[02:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm keeping him beusy!
[02:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> you lot get the mask!
[02:08] <Persephone> /me waits for the mask to break
[02:08] *** It thrashes. Twists and struggles. Then the colors of the mists twist around him and magic seems to snap. Its head tilts. What seems to be a mouth, far, far too large for the faceless visage, spreads open in a grin.
[02:09] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte inserts into that grin the results of the botched circumcision
[02:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♡ choke on a d[BLEEP]k ♡
[02:10] *** Langley is working to pull the two apart. To talk them down. Then the loud snap of bone.
[02:10] * Masked Figure moves into postion to catch the mask.
[02:10] * Persephone lunges for it
[02:10] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte hopes the other two are f[BLEEP]king co-ordinated because grinny McGrinnerson is probably a biter
[02:10] * Persephone catches it?
[02:10] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte still has that one card left...
[02:11] *** Everything seems to slow. No. It's actually slowing. And while pieces of the mask fly everywhere, scattering across the ground, the being moves at normal speed.
[02:11] *** Roll 1d15
[02:11] <Masked Figure> (( who? ))
[02:11] *** all three.
[02:11] <spiritflame> Persephone rolls 1d15 [ 10 ]
[02:12] <spiritflame> Masked Figure rolls 1d15 [ 9 ]
[02:12] <spiritflame> Paisley Pythia Peinforte rolls 1d15 [ 15 ]
[02:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> <-- motherf[BLEEP]ker
[02:12] <Masked Figure> Thou art blessed by the godess of luck.
[02:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm just trained in time-f[BLEEP]kery.
[02:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Like you, ehh, Grinny~
[02:13] *** Shattered mask is clutched in fists and scattered around feet. To your luck, you catch quite a few of them. Most are rather large chunks.
[02:13] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte immediately dispatches the one she finds into a hypersptatial pocket
[02:14] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The rest of you! Get the other pieces!
[02:14] * Persephone pockets her piece
[02:14] *** The being extends a hand. It's almost polite, in a way, long fingers extending towards you. The grin is still wide, and you can see to the far side of the room through it.
[02:15] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte gets the hell out of the way
[02:15] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte throws up her final card
[02:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Tactical.
[02:15] * Masked Figure stashes away any caught peices somewhere and moves to grab those that can still be found "Doest thou need assitance with chomper?
[02:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sonic.
[02:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Rain.
[02:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> NUKE.
[02:16] *** Faces and heads turn hearing the words.
[02:16] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte throws up a barrier to protect the others in the room and mask fragments on the fground
[02:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Don't mind us kids!
[02:16] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte BRINGS THE RAINBOW
[02:16] *** Weapons are being drawn and magic flares.
[02:16] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte flicks up a huge hex barrier
[02:17] <Masked Figure> Remember what I said bout not drawing attention to ourselves
[02:17] <Persephone> Too late
[02:17] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte SLAMS down a NUKE of sonic rainbow energy!
[02:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> This is called a "distraction"
[02:17] *** The being's grin twists to a frown. Once again it's too large for its face.
[02:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Get the rest and let's BOOGIE
[02:17] * Persephone scoops up what fragments she can find, using the distraction
[02:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> They're all looking at ME not you now MOVE
[02:18] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte also has a deviously horrible notion
[02:18] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte projects a strong mental geass
[02:18] * Persephone bobs and weaves through the crowd and gets to Paise
[02:18] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is now known as rei.bot
[02:18] <Persephone> Let's go
[02:18] <rei.bot> :3
[02:18] *** Voices are familiar. "Who the hell are you!" Animalistic snarls. Some seem to be trying to calm the situation.
[02:18] * rei.bot has what she needs
[02:19] * rei.bot jsut givers them the electricv blue-eyed DEATH STARE
[02:19] * rei.bot looks to Masky to see if he's all set on his end
[02:20] * rei.bot pricks her finger behind her back
[02:20] *** People back off. Some are just outright confused. Pieces you can find are collected. But in the flurry of feet it's hard to tell. The ghost lays in an unmoving heap on the ground, and Langley clings to Allison in worry.
[02:21] * rei.bot tries one more trick,, dragging her hex barrier back with her across the ground like a net
[02:21] * rei.bot then pulls it in like a bag, and sets up the retrun storm
[02:21] <rei.bot> ^return
[02:21] * rei.bot moves with the others the hell out
[02:21] * rei.bot is now known as Paisley Pythia Peinforte
[02:22] *** The transition is, again, hot and wet and muggy. Suddenly the air is non-existent but you don't need it.
[02:23] * Masked Figure holds out all the mask shards gathered during the comotion "I do hope this is enough"
[02:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sorry about that but he was coming and they would have noticed soon anyway
[02:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Had to make a call
[02:23] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte checks her glowing hex net to see if she dragged any more bits in
[02:24] *** Small shards float about the mists. Nothing terribly substantial.
[02:24] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte puills out the pieces eh had caught
[02:24] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte gathers the ones persephone got
[02:25] *** The teeth resemble a crocodile along the jawbone. The bulk of it is there. Much is shattered beyond repair.
[02:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Ahh but i have one last trick.
[02:25] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> One last thign I can do, as anyone who has read my profile knows.
[02:26] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte carefully puts all the pieces close together
[02:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> hopefully there's enough of it here.
[02:26] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte closes her eyes and concentrates
[02:26] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's been less than 10 minutes... so...
[02:26] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte waves her hands over the mask fragment
[02:26] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte uses her ability to roll time back over it, praying that it even works here
[02:27] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte attempts to roll it back to the moment before it was shatterred to bits
[02:27] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte carefully makes sure to not roll it back before it was dietached from Yura tho
[02:28] *** It begins to reform. It's odd. Bits of flesh try and form and shatter into spirit energy. Like it's trying to reconnect. Muscle twists into shape and melts away.
[02:28] * The Gentleman clears its throat. Or makes the noise there-in.
[02:28] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte grints, that's the problem, she's trying to fix it in siolation
[02:28] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte focuses only on the bone
[02:29] <The Gentleman> If you would please.
[02:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Cover me will you, anyone
[02:29] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte cannot break her concentration
[02:30] *** It reshapes. Cracks reform and vanish and reform again. Nothing seems to be sticking.
[02:30] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is hyperfocusing and dammit where are the rest of you she's WIDE OPEN HERE
[02:30] <The Gentleman> Ahem. I need those, if you please.
[02:30] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte sights
[02:30] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte takes them and hides them in a pocket again
[02:30] * Masked Figure draws a sword and stands between Paisely and the man.
[02:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And why would you.
[02:31] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is sweating--- f[BLEEP]k--- that took a lot out of her
[02:31] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Lazard I have to rely on you for the mo'
[02:31] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte pants, trying to regain her composure
[02:32] <The Gentleman> You seem tired.
[02:32] * The Gentleman tilts its head.
[02:32] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Takes effort, this.
[02:32] <The Gentleman> Why do you push so.
[02:33] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because I want to help my friend.
[02:33] <Masked Figure> ...
[02:33] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because I bloody well know what it's like to be alone and that stops.
[02:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> whatever fate she's been assigned to.
[02:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm changing it.
[02:34] <The Gentleman> She is needed.
[02:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I won't deny that.
[02:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But there must be a way to keep her whole after she does her work.
[02:34] *** it's registered, btw.
[02:35] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte looks at The Gentleman.
[02:35] *** The Gentleman is a lanky being in what seems to be a well-tailored suit and a tophat of all things. It has no face. Long, monstrous fingers drape over the handle of a cane. You imagine this is the "friendly" appearance of it.
hir image Song is: . It is Level 1.
[02:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Also
[02:35] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Tim Burton is going to sue you.
[02:35] <The Gentleman> I know not that name.
[02:35] <Masked Figure> Your loss then.
[02:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> just as well he c[BLEEP]ked up the second Batman film
[02:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> May I ask sir.
[02:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Why have you taken her.
[02:36] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Why did you take that piece of her?
[02:36] <The Gentleman> She had no place. She was not missed.
[02:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Ahh but there you were wrong.
[02:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She Was missed.
[02:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Its' why I'm here.
[02:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Even though the universe "moved on"
[02:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> There were those that remembered.
[02:37] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And wept.
[02:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And I'm here to get her back.
[02:38] <The Gentleman> She is needed.
[02:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Or at least get her a way to not be Forgotten.
[02:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I have some sense of the role she plays.
[02:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And it is vital.
[02:38] <Masked Figure> Every face I come across I remember. Even those the universe has forgotten
[02:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But she's not a simple tool.
[02:39] <Masked Figure> Even those that do not exist.
[02:39] <The Gentleman> She is not. Her place cannot change.
[02:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Tell me then.
[02:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What is her place?
[02:39] <The Gentleman> Come.
[02:39] * The Gentleman turns. Walks. The Mists move around him.
[02:40] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte stretches and bends to scratch her leg
[02:40] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte then follows
[02:40] * Masked Figure keeps near Paisley
[02:41] *** The mirrors fade into the distance. The Mists open up. Things are -swimming- in it. Roaring. Crashing into barriers. You recognize some. Horrorterrors. All manner of other beasts besides.
[02:41] <Masked Figure> ...
[02:42] *** Many turn and hungrily lunge to you instead of the walls. Jaws snap. They stop as they near the Gentleman and retreat.
[02:42] <The Gentleman> Face. Perhaps a friendlier face.
[02:42] <Masked Figure> I thought we were done with these fel beasts.
[02:42] * That scene is not lost on Paise.
[02:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Shh.
[02:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> They exist anywhere between universes.
[02:42] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And in failed dead brach timelines.
[02:43] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> There's a lot around the edges.
[02:43] * The Gentleman turns, body sickeningly crunching. Things suddenly fall into proportion. And the face is recognizable. It's Furu.
[02:43] <The Gentleman> This one is fond of this Face. Perhaps it will work.
[02:44] * The Gentleman gives that s[BLEEP]t-eating Furu smile.
[02:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> The problem isn't your face.
[02:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I've dealt with all kinds of beings.
[02:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I KNOW you're in charge her.
[02:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^here
[02:44] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> and what you do is important.
[02:44] <The Gentleman> No one's 'in charge' here.
[02:44] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte exhales a bit
[02:44] <The Gentleman> But I see your point.
[02:45] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well judging by their reaction you're quite... respected.
[02:45] * The Gentleman even sounds like Furu. it's sort of creepy.
[02:45] <The Gentleman> They can't eat me. It's a gift.
[02:45] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Mmm it's more than that. They retreated.
[02:45] <The Gentleman> They can't eat Runners either.
[02:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So you collected Yura.
[02:46] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes?
[02:46] <The Gentleman> And others.
[02:46] <The Gentleman> Most don't last long.
[02:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Why do yoy collect them. You personally.
[02:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^you
[02:47] <The Gentleman> Balance.
[02:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> All right, let's get to brass tacks.
[02:47] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Shes' needed.
[02:47] <The Gentleman> The realms have Watchers and Collectors and all manner of things to create and control. Left-overs always happen.
[02:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She told us that one days he will fulfill her role and be forgotten by us.
[02:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^she
[02:48] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> and also that she does not remember many things.
[02:48] <The Gentleman> There is always that chance.
[02:48] <Masked Figure> I repeat that I shall remember even if everyone does not.
[02:49] <The Gentleman> And she forgets for her own good.
[02:49] <The Gentleman> I'm amazed she remembers she forgets. Smart girl.
[02:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Indeed she is.
[02:49] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> you do realize that by taking her, you've upset the balance, yes?
[02:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because she was not one of the Forgotten. Not truly.
[02:50] <The Gentleman> I haven't beyond repair. The universe breaks and reforms often enough.
[02:50] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And that brings those like us after her.
[02:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Can't argue that either.
[02:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's very well true.
[02:51] <The Gentleman> Without beings like her things would be worse.
[02:51] <The Gentleman> It is a sacrifice.
[02:51] <Masked Figure> ....
[02:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> IT is. But you sacrificed her.
[02:51] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Not she herself.
[02:51] <The Gentleman> No reset or rewrite is a clean one. If it were, these things wouldn't be floating around looking for hosts.
[02:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Look I'm not trying to smash your organization.
[02:52] <The Gentleman> You dealt with these before, if time is telling me correctly.
[02:52] <Masked Figure> They're not clean because the story tellsers are bad at their jobs
[02:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm not even trying to steal her away.
[02:52] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But...
[02:52] <The Gentleman> And the actors do not always forget what needs to be forgotten, Masked one.
[02:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I am trying to help her find a better balance.
[02:53] * The Gentleman gives that dumb Furu smile again.
[02:53] * Masked Figure laughs
[02:53] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte just stays polite and respectful
[02:53] <Masked Figure> I do not forget becaue it is my role to remember.
[02:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I want her to do her job but at the end of the day I want to give her a place she can come back to.
[02:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Look up our place.
[02:54] <Masked Figure> Seomeone has to. If the resets are clean there's nothing to worry about. But if they're not... someone has to be there to explain why things are broken.
[02:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If there's any point in the multiverse where she can at least base
[02:54] <Masked Figure> And it sure as hell isn't you or your people.
[02:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> and have some semblance of something with those who have not forgotten her.
[02:54] <The Gentleman> I have heard stories. Your place is to broken to house a Fixer.
[02:54] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's there.
[02:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Rubbish~
[02:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> the HOTEL always stands
[02:55] <The Gentleman> It does. But her mind would not.
[02:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> There's lots of us partially or totally immune to shifts.
[02:55] *** Then the mists twist. It's the HOTEL. But in lights and colors. Outlines glow in violets and reds and greens.
[02:56] *** It's almost blinding how many colors and changes there are. Mixes of color. Rainbows of light.
[02:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You see that structure
[02:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Intern told us the other day
[02:56] <The Gentleman> Your place is a wonderful world. I am amazed how it lasts.
[02:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> it's more than a TARDIS
[02:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> it's reaching out across dimensions and time in ways we're not even aware of yet.
[02:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She called it an "Edifice"
[02:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> it's becoming something else.
[02:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Its own unique thing
[02:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> in the history of things.
[02:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It lasts because...
[02:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> it's more than a building or a time lord machine.
[02:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's the people in it
[02:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> our feelings, and our drives
[02:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> our passions
[02:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> it's why we made it all the way here
[02:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> for a Hollow that Time Forgot.
[02:58] <The Gentleman> And she helps it hold together.
[02:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because we will not forget.
[02:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Right
[02:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> and we want to help hold her together.
[02:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Equivalent Exchange.
[02:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Thanks for a thankless job.
[02:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We will find a way.
[02:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Like you, we have a job too.
[02:59] <The Gentleman> Meddling with her here is not it.
[02:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That is, to protect our family and the ones we love.
[02:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Oh yes it is.
[03:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It is our #1 job.
[03:00] <The Gentleman> The loss of her mask is what makes her.
[03:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm aware we could lose "Abe" and regain "Yura"
[03:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Abe is drifting.
[03:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Incomplete.
[03:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> By design preshaps
[03:01] <The Gentleman> Is she?
[03:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But
[03:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You maintain she is not?
[03:02] <The Gentleman> All who wander are not lost.
[03:02] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte has to be careful, shes treading dangerous ground
[03:02] <The Gentleman> I believe one from your realm coined that.
[03:02] <Masked Figure> No.
[03:02] <Masked Figure> Not all who wander are lost.
[03:03] * The Gentleman gets a dull expression. It doesn't seem to enjoy snark.
[03:03] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Tolkien.
[03:03] * Masked Figure isn't snarking. You got the quote wrong
[03:03] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> A bit too wordy for my taste, but.
[03:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So question.
[03:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> What happens if I just keep this mask.
[03:04] <The Gentleman> I don't see changes. Only breaks.
[03:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Rather than letting you have it.
[03:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She's tied to the mask.
[03:04] <The Gentleman> But she cannot have it.
[03:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> if I keep the mask, but not affix it to her.
[03:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She remains Abe
[03:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> keeps her job
[03:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> _but she has a way back_
[03:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> To home in on us.
[03:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> To not forget us.
[03:05] <The Gentleman> After the party the pieces were left on the floor. It took days before she awoke with no memories. She became a different person.
[03:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I get that, as I said
[03:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm not trying to change her back
[03:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If I wanted that I would have prevented the breakage in the first place.
[03:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But I think if I hold the mask in our home dimension
[03:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> away from her
[03:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It may at least give her a kind of an anchor point to come back to.
[03:07] <The Gentleman> If you so wish.
[03:07] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Then may we go in peace?
[03:08] *** The vision of the colors of the HOTEL fade. Mists swirl. Beasts swim.
[03:08] <The Gentleman> Be careful with it.
[03:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Of course.
[03:08] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte bows
[03:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Thanks.
[03:09] * The Gentleman 's form shifts back to the faceless being.
[03:09] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte looks for the exist.
[03:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^exit
[03:09] *** And in the most disorienting way, everything PULLS back into the vision of the mists with the mirrors. They twist. Yura is trying to look for snacks.
[03:10] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte keeps the mask hidden in a hyperspace piocket
[03:10] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hmm.
[03:10] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte creates a block-transfer food replicator.
[03:10] <Yura Diro> Hi! Snacks? You have snacks?
[03:10] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I have no idea if this will persist when I go. I hope so.
[03:10] <Masked Figure> .....
[03:10] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I hage better than snacks.
[03:10] <Yura Diro> Snake was mean and made me stop snacking.
[03:10] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I have an infinite snack machine.
[03:11] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Just tell it what you want.
[03:11] <Yura Diro> SNACKS.
[03:11] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte hands it to her
[03:11] * it vomits out snacks of her of all brands
[03:11] * ^for her
[03:11] * Yura Diro devours.
[03:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> All right Yura. I'm going now.
[03:12] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Take care of yourself.
[03:12] * Yura Diro swims and waves. It's excited. She's easily excited. And swayed.
[03:13] <Masked Figure> ....
[03:13] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Let's go.
[03:13] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte seems a little down but
[03:13] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte hopes this helps
[03:14] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte slowly wills the link to dissipate
[03:14] *** The Mists and mirrors fade into shadows.
[03:15] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte wakes up in the real world drenched in sweat
[03:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> fnarght
[03:15] <Abe Hisoka> That's a noise.
[03:15] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte check sand still has her hypersptial construct
[03:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yeah.
[03:15] <Abe Hisoka> I totally blacked out. Did s[BLEEP]t go down?
[03:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> How are you feeling.
[03:15] *** Everything seems to be there.
[03:15] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Things happened.
[03:15] <Masked Figure> Wait. If we never left that mirrior world... did we actualy go to tha place or was that more dream too?
[03:15] <Abe Hisoka> Weirdly full and my mouth tastes of cheetos.
[03:15] <Masked Figure> *mental world
[03:15] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte puts the construct away
[03:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Thoughts and relaity are linked Lazard.
[03:16] <Masked Figure> (( Forgive me it's 3AM and I have a headacce >.< ))
[03:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> S'what I keep trying to tell you.
[03:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> (( yeah me too ))
[03:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We are minds within minds within minds.
[03:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> it's all mind when you get down to it
[03:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> just on bigger or smaller levels
[03:16] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> anyway
[03:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I can tell you this much Abe.
[03:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> There is a purpose to what you do
[03:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It is important
[03:17] <Abe Hisoka> do I even like cheetos? I am so confused. Dumb me likes cheetos?
[03:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I think she might.
[03:17] <Abe Hisoka> Well. At least it's important?
[03:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And uhh, I don't think it's hostile.
[03:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Just a force of nature in a sense.
[03:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Doing what it must.
[03:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I've uh...
[03:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I've done my best to see if we can keep your link with this place a bit stronger.
[03:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So you have somewhere to call your own.
[03:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> To be honest I don't know if it will work.
[03:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But it's the best I can do.
[03:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> (Because I don't think that thing would have let her go, and I don't think we can make it, either)
[03:19] <Abe Hisoka> You... you didn't have to do things like that for me.
[03:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Bulls[BLEEP]t XD
[03:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You're family.
[03:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Whether you like it or not.
[03:20] <Abe Hisoka> Oh come on I'm a big girl (mostly in the chest area)!
[03:20] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte grins
[03:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> hah!
[03:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Still
[03:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's good to not be alone.
[03:20] <Masked Figure> ....
[03:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And as lojng as I can help it you won't be.
[03:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I meddle like that.
[03:20] <Abe Hisoka> I. Ah, f[BLEEP]k it. Thank you.
[03:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You're welcome.
[03:21] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte yawns despite herself
[03:21] <Masked Figure> Indeed...
[03:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Now I have one errand to run and then I will slip till noon.
[03:21] <Abe Hisoka> I'll try and keep... keeping this place intact.
[03:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So I will see you later.
[03:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> All right.
[03:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And we'll return the favor.
[03:21] <Abe Hisoka> Yeah you people need sleep. I keep forgetting that.
[03:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yes.
[03:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It's a flaw XD
[03:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> See you, Abe Hisoka.
[03:21] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte waves
[03:21] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte is away
[03:22] <Abe Hisoka> Laaaaaater. And. Thanks.
[03:22] * Abe Hisoka flops back on the couch.
[03:22] * Masked Figure is away
[03:23] <Abe Hisoka> Cheetos. What am I, a gamer?

[18:24] <@spiritflame> Current Location is: Michigan
[18:25] *** Hinako Urashima [WorldRunner@WellspringofTravels.net] has joined #suburbansenshi3
[18:25] <@spiritflame> konbanwa hinako urashima
[18:25] *** Hana Sagusa has joined #suburbansenshi3
[18:25] <@spiritflame> konbanwa hana sagusa
[18:27] * Hana Sagusa looks around
[18:27] * Hinako Urashima appears with Hana in a small wilderness, not too far from a city.
[18:27] *** Well no one's running and screaming. That's good right?
[18:27] <Hinako Urashima> Welcome to Michigan, Hana. How's it feel?
[18:28] <Hana Sagusa> Sore wa hijō ni shizukadesu >.>
[18:28] * Hana Sagusa coughs
[18:29] <Hana Sagusa> sorry...forgot to speak in english
[18:30] <Hinako Urashima> Yeah--- try to keep that under wraps.
[18:31] <Hinako Urashima> For now-- we're headed to that city. We're about half a mile away, so we should be there in about four minutes.
[18:32] <Hinako Urashima> If memory serves, that ought to be Dearborn.
[18:32] <Hana Sagusa> yeah I don't know anything about this place
[18:34] <Hinako Urashima> In that case, stick with me.
[18:34] * Hinako Urashima heads off towards Dearborn.
[18:36] * Hana Sagusa follows
[18:38] * Hana Sagusa looks around
[18:39] *** Dearborn, Michigan--- it was this city where Hinako had first transformed into a Senshi, unaware of what it would entail. Dearborn is the hometown of Henry Ford, and the world headquarters of the Ford Motor Company.
[18:40] <YumikoTakanashi> (( didnt know that ))
[18:44] <Hinako Urashima> (OK, if I were a scientist, then I'd likely be at the Michigan University, or the Henry Ford Comminity College.)
[18:46] * Hana Sagusa is just looking around
[18:47] <Hinako Urashima> (If my memory hasn't crapped out on me, should be.... this way.)
[18:52] *** Not much going on here except normal Michigan life. Oh wait that kid just stole 10 bucks from his mom's purse.
[18:53] <Hana Sagusa> !
[18:54] <Hinako Urashima> (Kids these days...)
[18:56] <Hinako Urashima> (Whatever happened to being able to whack your kids whenever they misbehaved?)
[18:57] *** Asswhipping at thieving o'clock
[18:58] <Hinako Urashima> (And there it is.)
[18:59] <Hana Sagusa> so where are we going
[19:03] <Hinako Urashima> To the Michigan University--- which, if memory serves, is right over here.
[19:04] <Hana Sagusa> lead the way
[19:05] * Hinako Urashima does so.
[19:08] *** UM-Dearborn---- the former estate of Henry Ford, it's now an expansive and sprawling university campus.
[19:08] *** There's students, teachers, staff, a few stray dogs, No police though.
[19:13] <Hinako Urashima> (Not even any campus security.... odd.)
[19:17] * Hinako Urashima casually heads around the campus. Maybe there's a chance she'll run into one of the professors she met three years ago.
[19:18] * Hana Sagusa frowns, keeping an eye out
[19:20] <Hinako Urashima> At least it's warmer than when I was last up here.
[19:21] <Hana Sagusa> so ok what are we doing...
[19:23] * Hinako Urashima slows down a bit, to level with Hana.
[19:24] <Hinako Urashima> Keep an eye and ear open for anything that would strike you as suspicious.
[19:29] <Hana Sagusa> gotcha
[19:29] * Hana Sagusa keeps her eyes peeled for any unusual
[19:37] *** There's not much to see, though there are quite a few flyers for a science club ski trip.
[19:38] <Hinako Urashima> ??
[19:38] * Hinako Urashima takes a look at this flyer.
[19:38] * Hana Sagusa looks over Hinako's shoulder
[19:39] *** The flyers are for today and lasts till tomorrow.
[19:41] * Hinako Urashima takes a look at where this ski trip is supposed to be held.
[19:41] *** The ski trip is planned for the mountains in Colorado.
[19:44] <Hinako Urashima> (Colorado--- quite a ways away.)
[19:44] * Hinako Urashima gets her cell, and takes a few pics ot the flyer.
[19:45] <Hinako Urashima> Way out in Colorado....
[19:50] * Hinako Urashima makes certain that the print on the flyers is clearly readable in her pics, then puts her cell away.
[19:52] <YumikoTakanashi> (( are they heading there? ))
[19:52] <Hinako Urashima> (( Depends, are we still doing this? ))
[19:53] <YumikoTakanashi> (( as long as yuh want. >> ))
[19:53] <Hana Sagusa> maybe we should check this out
[19:54] <Hinako Urashima> Worth a look into.
[19:55] * Hinako Urashima looks up the relevant info on her cell---- namely the ski resort the trip is planning on heading to.
[19:57] *** The trip in in the Aspen slopes.
[19:58] <Hinako Urashima> Aspen Slopes.....
[20:01] <Hinako Urashima> That's in Aspen, Colorado.
[20:04] <Hana Sagusa> so what are we waiting for?
[20:04] *** It is indeed. Anyone up for a little fun in the snow?
[20:05] * Hinako Urashima looks around very quickly, then leads Hana over to a secluded spot.
[20:05] <Hinako Urashima> First thing's first--- we're gonna need to suit up properly for this. It may be July, but it's no reason to run in blindly.
[20:09] * Hinako Urashima gets her cell again, and dials a specific number.
[20:09] <Hana Sagusa> okkkkay
[20:09] <Hinako Urashima> ♦ Hey Bro!
[20:10] <Hinako Urashima> ♦ Remember that "rainy-day" stash I asked you to keep a hold of for me?
[20:11] <Hinako Urashima> ♦ Yeah, I'm gonna have to ask you to get it ready for me--- press numbers 1-1-3 on the trunk.
[20:12] <Hinako Urashima> ♦ All right---- see you in a bit~
[20:15] * Hinako Urashima hangs up.
[20:15] <Hinako Urashima> OK, Hana--- time to head back.
[20:25] <Hana Sagusa> alright
[20:26] * Hinako Urashima puts her hand on Hana's shoulder, and singles out her destination. The two disappear into thin air, with nobody the wiser.
[20:29] <@spiritflame> Current Location is: Aomori
[20:29] <Hana Sagusa> O_o
[20:29] * Hinako Urashima and Hana appear in a more remote part of Aomori. For this time of day, it's rather quiet.
[20:30] <Hinako Urashima> No time to waste--- this way!
[20:30] * Hinako Urashima leads Hana over to what appears to have been an run-down cafe.
[20:31] <Hana Sagusa> WHOA
[20:31] * Hana Sagusa follows
[20:32] * Hinako Urashima slips into the cafe, and approaches the counter. "Let's see..... believe it was----" She taps a part of the counter, and it slides away, revealing a staircase leading down.
[20:34] <Hinako Urashima> Yep, same as before. C'mon--- we're saying hi to my brother.
[20:34] <Hana Sagusa> gotcha...I think
[20:34] * Hana Sagusa follows
[20:36] *** The two descend the steps, eventually reaching a secret basement floor filled with old electronics. The place looks as though it underwent a recent renovation--- and awaiting the two girls is a man roughly 6'1", with buzzed hair, and eyes that almost match Hinako's.
[20:36] <Hinako Urashima> Hey bro!
[20:37] <Hikawa Urashima> Hello, sister. I take it this is your friend?
[20:37] <Hinako Urashima> Yep~
[20:37] <Hinako Urashima> How goes the fun at Misawa?
[20:38] <Hikawa Urashima> Same as it usually does---- but I'm certain you two are here for this.
[20:38] * Hikawa Urashima slides over an open trunk. Inside are.... winter clothes?
[20:40] * Hinako Urashima happily takes the trunk. "Thanks bro--- that's another one I owe you!"
[20:41] * Hikawa Urashima gives a snort of amusement. "That'd make.... what, three now?"
[20:41] <Hana Sagusa> ...okaaay
[20:42] * Hinako Urashima just laughs. "OK, we'll be on our way. Lemme know if your potential ladyfriend decides to show up♫"
[20:42] <Hikawa Urashima> Get going already! :P
[20:43] * Hinako Urashima laughs again, leading Hana up and out of the basement and back to the streets.
[20:45] <Hinako Urashima> It pays to have connections~
[20:45] *** Hikawa Urashima has left #suburbansenshi3 (That sister of mine....)
[20:48] * Hinako Urashima gets her cell out, and does one last checkover. "Hope you're not too bothered by the cold, Hana."
[20:49] <Hana Sagusa> nah I don't have a problem
[20:52] * Hinako Urashima slings the trunk over one shoulder, then places her hand on Hana's shoulder. "Next stop--- Aspen, Colorado."
[20:53] <Hana Sagusa> well here we go
[20:56] * Hinako Urashima concentrates on the location, and once again, they're whisked off!
[20:56] <@spiritflame> Current Location is: Aspen, Colorado
[20:56] *** LOOK! Look at all the COCAINE!! Oh, you mean that's NOT cocaine? Wrong script! It's snow people.
[20:57] * Hinako Urashima and Hana appear--- and holy moley is it chilly!
[20:57] * Hinako Urashima quickly opens the trunk, and passes Hana a longcoat.
[20:58] *** There's people EVERYWHERE! Laughter and screams of joy echo down the slopes.
[20:58] <Hana Sagusa> whoa geez
[20:58] * Hana Sagusa puts on the longcoat
[21:00] * Hinako Urashima dons her own coat.
[21:00] <Hinako Urashima> Somehow, I feel a bit underdressed for the occasion, but that can be rectified later.
[21:01] * Hinako Urashima closes up the trunk, and heads off to the slopes, looking for the ski lodge.
[21:01] * Hana Sagusa follows
[21:02] *** The ski lodge is at the very top of the mountain.
[21:03] <Hinako Urashima> Hrm....
[21:03] * Hinako Urashima looks for a ski-lift.
[21:04] *** Ski lift is to the left.
[21:07] <Hana Sagusa> it's over there!
[21:07] <Hinako Urashima> Good eye!
[21:07] <Hinako Urashima> Let's head up.
[21:09] * Hinako Urashima heads over to the ski-lift.
[21:09] * Hana Sagusa follows
[21:13] * Hinako Urashima waits for the next chair to come around, then positions herself to be seated.
[21:14] * Hana Sagusa sits down
[21:14] *** The ski lift goes quickly up the mountain. As you exit there are tons of people hovering around a tv, all whispering in shock and horror.
[21:14] * Student A is standing with a group of peers watching the news "OH NO!! What happened??"
[21:14] <Hinako Urashima> ??
[21:14] <Hinako Urashima> What's going on?
[21:15] <Student B> Something went off in the lab? This is horrible!
[21:16] <Hana Sagusa> .....
[21:16] <Tv> ♦ Breaking news, a science facility in Alabama was obliterated when a nuclear reactor went of causing an explosive catastrophe. 364 scientists were killed, 34 were injured. Reports say the explosion was unexpected as the area that was breached had been sealed with only 3 people able to have access, none of which were there at the time. The surviving Scientists are calling it an impossible feat. Now back to your usual programming
[21:16] <Student B> I cant believe it....
[21:16] <Hana Sagusa> ....
[21:17] <Hinako Urashima> ...sounds like foul play.
[21:18] <Hana Sagusa> ...I think we're too late
[21:19] <Student B> There's no way. We've toured that facility. Every room is locked tight! The nuclear reactors are deep under ground.
[21:19] <Student A> Yea! We weren't allowed past the 3rd floor.
[21:22] * Hana Sagusa listens...
[21:22] <Hinako Urashima> (Definitely foul play here...)
[21:25] <Hana Sagusa> what do we do
[21:28] <Hinako Urashima> We investigate--- this just reeks of a setup.
[21:29] * Hana Sagusa nods
[21:30] <Hinako Urashima> (If in Alabama, then it had to be in one of three cities---)
[21:31] * Hana Sagusa looks at the TV..noticing the heavy police presence
[21:31] * Hinako Urashima checks her cell to determine where this reactor was---- Athens, Dothan, or Hollywood ((all of which are real cities in Alabama)).
[21:31] <Hana Sagusa> ....gah...I don't know if we're goign to be able to get in
[21:32] *** It was not in either of those!
[21:36] * Hinako Urashima checks the TV, to see just where in "Alabama" this reactor explosion took place.
[21:36] *** It was in a secluded area near Alabaster.
[21:39] <Hinako Urashima> (Out there... but something's very off. Alabaster doesn't have an official nuclear reactor recorded...)
[21:41] <Hana Sagusa> hey...you ok there?
[21:43] <Hinako Urashima> Something doesn't add up--- Alabaster doesn't have a nuclear reactor officially recorded.
[21:44] <Hana Sagusa> ok so creepy conspirciry?
[21:45] <Hinako Urashima> Or someone's got a jolly for misdirection and mindless killing.
[21:49] <Hana Sagusa> yeah I guess
[21:50] *** The students all disperse and head back down the mountain.
[21:52] * Hinako Urashima waits to see if there's any extra information on the "reactor" before getting ready to head out.
[21:53] *** The tv has already gone back to the scheduled programming.
[21:55] <Hinako Urashima> Time to head back...
[21:56] <Hana Sagusa> yeah..
[21:58] * Hinako Urashima lays her hand on Hana's shoulder, and away they go.
[21:59] *** Hinako Urashima [WorldRunner@WellspringofTravels.net] has left #suburbansenshi3
[22:00] *** Hana Sagusa has left #suburbansenshi3
[22:17] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte leans back on a sofa and thinks
[22:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> (When did I become the one who cares about other people?)
[22:17] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> (First the Raina and the Asters and now Abe...)
[22:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> (I used to pride myself on not giving two f[BLEEP]ks...)
[22:18] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte sighs
[22:53] * Homunculas silently watches
[23:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hallo nosy one.
[23:28] * Homunculas blinks it's eyes
[23:28] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Tell me.
[23:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If you thought something very dangerous was out there
[23:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> but to stop it you'd have to f[BLEEP]k over al LOT of your closest friends.
[23:29] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> would you do it?
[23:30] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Heh. I don't even know if you can answer.
[23:31] * Homunculas pauses...then explodes, turning into a oozing puddle of blood.....which slowly rises up in the form of a humanoid figure
[23:31] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood)> ♦ that is a very good question
[23:31] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That's new.
[23:31] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Hallo, Child.
[23:32] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood)> ♦ a simple spell...your question......how dangerious do you feel this is
[23:33] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Do you know the Time Lords have something called "The Matrix?"
[23:34] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Sort of like the thing in the Keanu Reeves movies, only far more expansive.
[23:37] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood)> ♦ I am aware of it
[23:38] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte looks around warily
[23:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Nizhaladax.
[23:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> you remember how she just "Same back"
[23:38] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^Came back"
[23:39] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood)> ♦ yes
[23:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> It was so easy.
[23:39] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So quick, and so easy.
[23:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'll just leave this thought on the table.
[23:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> If she was there.
[23:40] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Wouldn't it stand to reason that others that are long dead would still be there?
[23:43] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood)> ♦ that is possible naturally
[23:49] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood)> ♦ the question, mother....how much are you willing to lose
[23:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well I think...
[23:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I think Intern's been talking to the dead.
[23:53] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And I think if she keeps that up, she'll raise up something we may not be able to put down.
[23:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And so I may need to stop her ability ot have these little seances.
[23:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Which would mean...
[23:56] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> destroying something vitally important to the Time Lords.
[23:57] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood)> ♦ ..you refer to the Matrix..
[23:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Mmm Hmm.
[23:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Either destroying it or breaking in and erasing a ton of s[BLEEP]t.
[23:59] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood)> ♦ mother I suggest you think long and hard about this.....there may be more consquences to such an action then you realize
[00:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I know.
[00:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I just have a bad bad feeling.
[00:01] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood)> ♦ then decide which is more important...and which may create the least amount of damage
[00:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> That's just It. I don't know.
[00:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But now I have to go
[00:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> We'll talk later.
[00:02] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood)> ♦ yes we shall
[00:02] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte heads out
[00:02] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood) collapses into a pool of blood which sizzles and vanishes
[00:02] *** Kaelyn P. Peinforte (Blood) has left #suburbansenshi3
[20:54] *** Paisley Pythia Peinforte [paisely_p@firstcircle.karn03-kasterborusrelay.sen] has joined #suburbansenshi3
[20:54] <@spiritflame> konbanwa paisley pythia peinforte
[20:54] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte looks for the Homunculus
[20:55] * Homunculas is there
[20:55] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Oi. Do the blood thing.
[20:56] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> that's quite dirty, isn't it?
[20:57] *** Kaelyn P. Peinforte has joined #suburbansenshi3
[20:57] <@spiritflame> konbanwa kaelyn p. peinforte
[20:57] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Well I reasoned it would let you stay home and guard the Boy.
[20:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So anyway.
[20:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I've been thinking.
[20:58] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> the child is guarded well
[20:58] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte nods
[20:58] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> hm?
[20:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I think that we need to do this thing.
[20:58] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Before anyone well-connected or clever enough makes the connection I have.
[20:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And by "We" I don't mean you.
[20:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm just using the Royal for now
[20:59] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> so why report this to me
[20:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because you're my family.
[20:59] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> I have seen you do actions before without pause
[20:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> And if I don't make it back you need to know why.
[20:59] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Yeah well this is not a bloody small action.
[21:00] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm going to make some huge enemies.
[21:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> So I'm also cluing you in because when this starts, I want you to keep your head down low.
[21:01] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> are you prepared to fight against all the Time Lords...
[21:01] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> ..what do I say to father
[21:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> nothing.
[21:01] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> He might try to help me.
[21:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You don't need both parents on the chop.
[21:02] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> In fact you keep him as far away from this as you can.
[21:03] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> very well
[21:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because if that wakes up again...
[21:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I don't think we'll have it as "Easy" as we did the last time.
[21:04] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> She said, bitterly.
[21:05] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> mother...are you sure about doing this
[21:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> No.
[21:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm scared.
[21:05] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> quite a bit scared.
[21:06] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> ....I am too
[21:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I just have to hope I'm fast enough to do this before... others realize it.
[21:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> You know how the f[BLEEP]king spiritus mundi works
[21:06] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> when one person has an epiphany, a whole ton of others do at the same time.
[21:06] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> .....I hope you make it back...
[21:06] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> ...I would like Robert to grow up knowing you
[21:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ...not biblically, I hope.
[21:08] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte smirks
[21:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm going to out together the best team I can.
[21:08] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ^put
[21:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> I'm going to need money however.
[21:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Not sure how much yet.
[21:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> Because there's one person I absolutely need.
[21:09] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> But I'll have to pay to get her
[21:10] <@spiritflame> The location is: Aspen, Colorado
[21:10] <@spiritflame> The location is: Aspen, Colorado

[21:15] * Roman Torchwick waves Nizzy forward
[21:15] <N. Blackhand> Well good evening to you too, Paisley?
[21:16] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte unceremoniously drops Torchwick
[21:16] * Roman Torchwick rubs his throat and glares at her

[21:17] <N. Blackhand> [Down the Street] I'm listening.
[21:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> [Down the Street] I want to break into the CIA Black Archives.
[21:18] <N. Blackhand> [Down the Street] ......................................
[21:18] <N. Blackhand> [Down the Street] Annd I'm leaving now.
[21:18] * N. Blackhand [Down the Street] turns to go
[21:18] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ Hear me out.
[21:19] <N. Blackhand> ♦ There's nothing to hear. That's suicide.
[21:19] <N. Blackhand> ♦ The Time Lords will rip you apart atom by atom if you take their secrets. They f[BLEEP]king shot Earth across the Galaxy.
[21:19] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ I don't want to take anything from the Archives.
[21:20] * N. Blackhand [Down the Street] turns around
[21:20] * N. Blackhand [Down the Street] looks at her
[21:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ I want to destroy something.
[21:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ Something very dangerous.
[21:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ Something those fools have kept.
[21:20] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ Something they should never have kept.
[21:21] <N. Blackhand> ♦ Wha tthe hell could be so dangerous?
[21:21] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ Nizhaladax... why are you still alive?
[21:21] <N. Blackhand> ♦ Well I..................
[21:21] * N. Blackhand [Down the Street] puts it together
[21:21] <N. Blackhand> ♦ Surely not.
[21:22] <N. Blackhand> ♦ SURELY NOT.
[21:22] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ Intern's been talking to the dead.
[21:22] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ When those magic users with their unreasonable powers threatened to destroy us she started talking to the dead.
[21:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ look into the Nth metal.
[21:23] <Paisley Pythia Peinforte> ♦ then Get back to me on whether you'll refuse this job.
[21:23] <N. Blackhand> [Down the Street] ...............................
[21:23] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte has moved to: [ ]
[21:23] * Paisley Pythia Peinforte has moved back to the lobby
[21:23] *** Paisley Pythia Peinforte [paisely_p@firstcircle.karn03-kasterborusrelay.sen] has left #suburbansenshi3 (My dairy-based frozen confection creates a focal point to which all young males of the species are drawn. You are correct; it is far superior to yours. I could attempt to educate you on the finer points of this subject, but it would require monetary recompense on your part.)
[21:23] <N. Blackhand> [Down the Street] ....
[21:24] * N. Blackhand [Down the Street] just stands there in the night, face half-lit by an overhead lamp
[21:27] * N. Blackhand [Down the Street] sits under the lamppost

[22:04] *** Chongqing, China
[22:05] *** somehow..thorugh means unknown...your trip is far shorter then normal....you fly over a foggy but impressive chinese city
[22:06] * Hinako Urashima gives a low whistle. "Check the view~"
[22:06] <Matsuo Shin> [Quinox Surface] I haven't been in china for quite a while
[22:06] <David O`Cain> Yeah?
[22:07] * Matsuo Shin has moved back to the lobby
[22:07] * Masked Figure remains silent.
[22:08] <Matsuo Shin> Lazard....does your magics have any sort of location abilities?
[22:08] <Masked Figure> Location ablities? As in based on my location or do you mean finding things?
[22:09] <Matsuo Shin> finding things
[22:09] <Masked Figure> I could try a song dedicated to the object or person and try tracking it.
[22:10] <Matsuo Shin> we need to find a location with a high percentiage of scientists in the city
[22:10] <Masked Figure> It would not be flawless as we'd be basicly going by ear.
[22:10] <Matsuo Shin> David..Hinako..if you can do location work as well..we need as much help as possible
[22:11] * Hinako Urashima pulls her cell out.
[22:11] * Masked Figure pulls out the harp and starts playing. No music comes out of the harp, instead it seems to come from elsewhere. You'd need to literally follow your ears.
[22:13] * David O`Cain puts on a pair of safety glasses, and begins to look around for heat signatures
[22:13] *** those searching..please roll 1d10
[22:13] <spiritflame> David O`Cain rolls 1d10 [ 9 ]
[22:13] <spiritflame> Hinako Urashima rolls 1d10 [ 2 ]
[22:14] <spiritflame> Masked Figure rolls 1d10 [ 5 ]
[22:15] *** david manages to find a high amount of heat signatures first...located at a certain building...
[22:16] <David O`Cain> Bunch of heat sigs over there (points to the building).
[22:17] <Matsuo Shin> ...think that's the spot..let's land everyone
[22:17] * Hinako Urashima takes a look at said building.
[22:18] *** it's Chongqing University
[22:19] <Masked Figure> Would a school have scientests?
[22:20] <David O`Cain> Chemistry, physics, biology, and geology at the very least.
[22:21] * David O`Cain is now known as Lt. David O`Cain
[22:21] <Hinako Urashima> Though, what connection would any of the people here have to the prior incidents?
[22:21] <Matsuo Shin> I wouldn't doubt it.....
[22:23] * Matsuo Shin lands his helicopter and hops out
[22:24] <Matsuo Shin> Lazard..can you mask our approch?
[22:24] <Masked Figure> The sounds of the choppers no. But us yes.
[22:24] * Masked Figure casts a look away spell
[22:26] <Matsuo Shin> alright...all of you...we need to keep our eyes out in there.........
[22:26] <Matsuo Shin> ...who knows what we'll find
[22:26] <Hinako Urashima> Kinda the norm for deals like this.
[22:27] <Masked Figure> as expected
[22:27] <Lt. David O`Cain> No kidding.
[22:28] * Matsuo Shin walks through the gate....and heads into the univerisity
[22:29] * Hinako Urashima follows, eyes sweeping from side to side for anything that might stick out.
[22:30] <Masked Figure> I will point out we are not invisable. We're just as boring as a stone wall to the average onlooker.
[22:31] <Masked Figure> As long as we "act normal" we'll be undetected
[22:31] *** it's oddly quiet...
[22:32] <Matsuo Shin> ..I don't like this
[22:33] <Lt. David O`Cain> Too quiet here.
[22:33] <Hinako Urashima> Where were the heat signatures coming from in here, David?
[22:34] * Matsuo Shin looks to david
[22:34] <Matsuo Shin> Lazard..I have a job for you in the meantime...
[22:35] <Masked Figure> Yes?
[22:35] * Lt. David O`Cain looks to where the heat signatures he found are
[22:37] <Matsuo Shin> often these attacks are related to nuculer power...try and see if there is anything to related to that here
[22:37] *** the heat signatures are coming from further in the back of the building
[22:38] <Lt. David O`Cain> Well, those sigs are in the back of that building.
[22:38] * Masked Figure checks to make sure no one is around and plays another song, looking for anything dealing with Nucular energy or power
[22:39] * Hinako Urashima quickly puts her senses to work, and tries to discern if there are any other people here.
[22:40] *** there are a few other people below your feet.....and a whole bunch in the area where the sigs are coming....the nucular powr is in the samelocation
[22:40] <Masked Figure> I'm hearing the song coming from back where David is detecting people
[22:41] <Hinako Urashima> Yeah, a whole lotta people back there, too.
[22:41] <Masked Figure> or at least heat.
[22:41] * Masked Figure stops playing. Harp music is kinda not "acting normal"
[22:42] <Lt. David O`Cain> Shall we?
[22:42] <Matsuo Shin> ..let's
[22:43] <Hinako Urashima> Let's go.
[22:44] * Lt. David O`Cain heads towards the building that was putting out the most heat
[22:45] * Matsuo Shin follows after David
[22:46] * Hinako Urashima follows as well.
[22:47] *** as you approuch..you can see the door is marked with a nucular sign
[22:47] *** you can also hear people talking
[22:47] <Hinako Urashima> (Yep, same as the others.... )
[22:47] <Matsuo Shin> .....any way we can avoid radiation poisoning..just in case?
[22:48] <Hinako Urashima> There's voices coming from the other side.
[22:48] * Hinako Urashima does her best to listen in on what they might be saying.
[22:48] <Masked Figure> Do you have a radaation proof suit?
[22:48] <Masked Figure> Surely there's a storage closet we can nick some from.
[22:49] <Matsuo Shin> Hinako..go and check
[22:49] <Hinako Urashima> Check the voices, or for suits?
[22:51] <Matsuo Shin> suits
[22:52] <Lt. David O`Cain> I'm good in this. You guys need suits more than I do.
[22:52] <Matsuo Shin> we mgiht need them
[22:53] <Hinako Urashima> All right--- try to listen in on what's being said.
[22:54] * Hinako Urashima heads to try and find some radiation suits.
[22:54] * Lt. David O`Cain discretely listens in on the conversation
[22:54] *** the conversation is in chinese
[22:55] * Lt. David O`Cain has Daxter translate in his helmet
[22:55] *** the conversation involves them talking about trying to keep the experiment steady and how it will change the world
[22:56] *** the radiation suits are in a nearby closet
[22:56] <Lt. David O`Cain> Hmmm.
[22:57] <Matsuo Shin> what do you hear
[22:58] <Lt. David O`Cain> They're trying to keep an experiment steady in hopes that it can change the world.
[22:58] * Hinako Urashima takes three of the suits. She heads back to the group.
[22:58] <Masked Figure> Hmm indeed.
[22:59] * Lt. David O`Cain continues listening and translating
[23:00] <Matsuo Shin> thanks, hinako
[23:00] * Matsuo Shin puts the suit on
[23:00] *** the conversation continues...saying the power is slowing building
[23:00] <Hinako Urashima> No problem.
[23:00] <Lt. David O`Cain> Power's building up, though.
[23:01] * Masked Figure slips on a suit
[23:01] * Hinako Urashima dons the suit as well. "Question is, what is this experiment?"
[23:02] <Lt. David O`Cain> No idea.
[23:02] <Matsuo Shin> shall we go and find out?
[23:02] <Lt. David O`Cain> I don't see why not, Matsuo.
[23:02] * Matsuo Shin walks into the room....
[23:06] * Lt. David O`Cain follows Matsuo
[23:06] * Hinako Urashima follows as well. She takes a quick look around the room, once she enters.
[23:07] *** the room is some sort of portable reactor room....there are various scientists also in radiation suits...
[23:08] <Hinako Urashima> (A mini-reactor?)
[23:08] <Masked Figure> Remember, act like we're supposed to be here and no one will think twice about us, we're that boring right now.
[23:09] * Lt. David O`Cain nods
[23:09] * Matsuo Shin calmly looks over the statue of the experiment..trying to..blend in
[23:09] <Hinako Urashima> Got it.
[23:10] <Masked Figure> I have a back up plan, but it's not something I like using so try not to make me resort to it.
[23:11] *** a few of the scientists start to get a bit alarmed.....steam is coming from the reactor
[23:11] <Masked Figure> ...
[23:11] <Matsuo Shin> ..it's happening
[23:12] <Masked Figure> What is?
[23:12] <Hinako Urashima> That's not a good sign..
[23:13] <Lt. David O`Cain> Uh oh...
[23:13] <Masked Figure> I could easily shut down the reactor, but doing so would draw undue attention to myself.
[23:13] <Matsuo Shin> last few times....the reactor exploded
[23:14] <Matsuo Shin> we need to get these people out of here...
[23:14] *** the reactor starts to buldge a bit....the ground is starting to shake under you
[23:14] <Hinako Urashima> We might have to do so, Lazard.
[23:14] *** the reactor has reached critical mass, and cannot be shut down
[23:15] <Matsuo Shin> we need to get them all out!
[23:15] * Masked Figure states in chinese "It's going to blow. We have to get out of here!
[23:15] <Hinako Urashima> Crap... we'll have to contain this somehow. If this blows, then half the city's gonna get scorched.
[23:15] * Masked Figure is acting like a horrified scientst
[23:16] *** the scientists start to panic...
[23:16] <Matsuo Shin> <GET OUT...GET OUT NOW..WE WILL TRY TO TURN IT OFF!>
[23:16] *** the scientists flee!!!!!!
[23:16] <Hinako Urashima> (Takes care of that.)
[23:16] <Matsuo Shin> ..alright you three..we can't stop the explosion..can we at least minimize the damage?
[23:16] <Matsuo Shin> or stop the radation damage
[23:17] <Hinako Urashima> Try a containment field?
[23:17] <Masked Figure> I could errect a sheild around the area but there's no way it would hold against a necualr melt down.
[23:17] <Matsuo Shin> .....
[23:17] * Matsuo Shin glances to Hinako
[23:17] <Lt. David O`Cain> The least we can do is try to cool it down.
[23:17] <Matsuo Shin> .............I have an idea
[23:17] <Hinako Urashima> Hm?
[23:18] <Matsuo Shin> .......alright...all of you..we have to get out of the building!
[23:18] <Masked Figure> I could try transporting the entire thing ito deep space but that would require alot of time to get the caculations right.
[23:18] <Masked Figure> Alright.
[23:18] <Hinako Urashima> Got it. Lead the way!
[23:18] <Lt. David O`Cain> What's the plan?
[23:19] * Matsuo Shin runs out....then pauses and SLAMS the fire alarm button...
[23:19] *** the other people in the building scramble out
[23:19] * Matsuo Shin runs out the building...
[23:19] * Hinako Urashima follows Matsuo.
[23:19] * Masked Figure follows Matsuo
[23:19] * Matsuo Shin gets out of the building
[23:20] <Matsuo Shin> Lazard..can you create a containment field but still allow our powrs through?
[23:20] <Masked Figure> I'll do what I can.
[23:20] <Matsuo Shin> ok..construct one around the building
[23:21] * Masked Figure starts playing a complex song, and a clearly magical barrier forms around the building
[23:21] <Matsuo Shin> ...david..mercury upgrade...I need you to keep that building cold enough to try and keep the explosion as small as possible
[23:21] <Masked Figure> I'm gonna need to keep playing to maintain this, I appoligze for this shortcoming.
[23:21] <Lt. David O`Cain> Got it.
[23:21] <Matsuo Shin> start doing it now
[23:21] * Matsuo Shin walks over to Hinako looking at her
[23:22] <Matsuo Shin> ....Hinako
[23:22] <Hinako Urashima> What's up?
[23:22] <Matsuo Shin> you're a battery senshi..correct?
[23:22] * Lt. David O`Cain changes to the Mercury Upgrade, and starts firing spiked balls of ice at the building
[23:22] <Hinako Urashima> Yeah--- but mostly supplying power to other Senshi. What're you hoping for?
[23:23] <Matsuo Shin> ..you're going to drain and disperse all the radation in the reactor
[23:24] <Hinako Urashima> --! Are you nuts?! I've never drained energy before--- redirected it, but never drained!
[23:24] <Lt. David O`Cain> Just don't turn into The Hulk! :P
[23:24] <Matsuo Shin> ..you can do it...
[23:24] <Hinako Urashima> ........
[23:24] <Matsuo Shin> ....all you need todo is redirect it into another form of passive energy
[23:24] <Hinako Urashima> .............all right. I've give it my all.
[23:25] <Matsuo Shin> alright....
[23:25] * Hinako Urashima turns to the barrier, and begins putting forth an effort to redirect the radiation into a passive, harmless energy. This is a first.
[23:27] *** the reactor is VERY near exploding.....the radiation is slowly being transformed..but it's very slow
[23:27] <Matsuo Shin> ...come on hinako...you can do it.....
[23:27] <Matsuo Shin> DAVID..we need more cold in there!
[23:27] * Hinako Urashima puts more power into the redirection.
[23:28] *** the radiation is being transformed succesfully....
[23:28] * Lt. David O`Cain charges energy into a hand, takes a swipe, and sends a rain of ice shards at the building, "MERCURY UPGRADE!"
[23:28] <Matsuo Shin> lazard..keep that field closed..IT'S GOING TO BLOW
[23:29] <Hinako Urashima> (--!! How--- wait, this is just like when Hikawa and I practice with our powers. Could.... could some of his abilities have rubbed off on me?)
[23:29] *** the reactor finally EXPLODES.....erupting against the barrier in a much smaller form...with an onrush of radation
[23:29] <Matsuo Shin> Hinako! do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[23:30] * Hinako Urashima gives one BIG BURST of redirection-power, nearly transforming in the process!
[23:30] *** the radation becomes harmless......as the explosion finally ends
[23:30] <Matsuo Shin> .....alright...I think you can drop the barrier
[23:31] * Masked Figure collapses to the ground
[23:31] <Matsuo Shin> Lazard!
[23:31] <Masked Figure> I'm fine. I just cheated a bit and used far more energy then I should have
[23:31] <Masked Figure> Just give me a miniute to rest.
[23:31] <Matsuo Shin> david..hinako..you alright?
[23:32] <Hinako Urashima> I'll be all right--- though not gonna lie, I'm surprised at how easily I redirected that stuff. I think my practicing with Hikawa lead to this ability.
[23:32] <Lt. David O`Cain> I'm fine. Running low on power for the upgrade (indicates to the flashing symbol on his arm).
[23:35] <Matsuo Shin> ....good..
[23:35] <Hinako Urashima> Think it's safe to head back in, search for clues? I'm curious about that mini-reactor.
[23:35] *** a dark shadow appears next to the group for a moment before vanishing
[23:35] <Matsuo Shin> ...what was that
[23:36] <Masked Figure> We are not alone.
[23:36] * Masked Figure stands up, breatheing heavliy
[23:37] <Hinako Urashima> Potentially human, or something else?
[23:38] <Masked Figure> I am lucky this suit came with gloves. Twere my hands bare I think they twould be be covered in blisteres right now.
[23:39] <Lt. David O`Cain> Hmmm.
[23:41] <Matsuo Shin> ..I don't know, hinako
[23:43] <Hinako Urashima> Guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. For now, though--- investigate and find clues, or head back?
[23:44] <Matsuo Shin> I think we should look around a bit....
[23:44] <Lt. David O`Cain> I'm curious about clues, actually.
[23:44] * Matsuo Shin adjusts his hat
[23:45] <Hinako Urashima> Let's get searching, then. Eyes peeled, everyone.
[23:45] <Matsuo Shin> I suggest we look trhough the ruins.....it should be safe now
[23:47] <Lt. David O`Cain> You got it, man.
[23:47] <Masked Figure> We should be quick. No doubt the epxlostion, contained or no, would alert the local athoroties.
[23:48] * Hinako Urashima nods. She turns towards the ruins, and heads that way, keeping a wary eye out.
[23:49] <Matsuo Shin> agreed...
[23:49] * Matsuo Shin starts to clamber over what remains of the building..that is not much......
[23:49] <Matsuo Shin> spread out....I think the key is with the reactor
[23:49] <Masked Figure> Mine own question is why they were working on a reactor.
[23:50] <Hinako Urashima> It looked portable--- maybe to bring power to affected areas? But, working on that small of a scale is highly dangerous.
[23:52] <Matsuo Shin> they most likely were going to debut it as a "safe" reactor
[23:52] * Lt. David O`Cain searches the chamber as best he can
[23:53] <Masked Figure> Tis hardly safe now.
[23:53] * Masked Figure searches as well
[23:53] <Hinako Urashima> Sounds like there were failures on multiple levels, with it.
[23:53] * Hinako Urashima searches around as well.
[23:54] *** everyone..roll 1d10
[23:54] <spiritflame> Lt. David O`Cain rolls 1d10 [ 9 ]
[23:55] <spiritflame> Hinako Urashima rolls 1d10 for searching [ 6 ]
[23:56] <spiritflame> Masked Figure rolls 1d10 [ 2 ]
[23:57] *** David, you find, nestled in some of the wreckage..the off switch for the reactor..totally unscathed
[23:59] <Lt. David O`Cain> Seriously? Of all things.
[23:59] <Matsuo Shin> hm? find something?
[23:59] <Masked Figure> Why did we not try hitting that?
[23:59] <Lt. David O`Cain> Yeah, Matsuo. The off switch. Unscathed no less.
[00:00] <Matsuo Shin> ..that is odd
[00:01] <Hinako Urashima> Weird indeed.
[00:01] <Lt. David O`Cain> You don't suppose this was hidden from use the whole time, do you?
[00:02] <Matsuo Shin> ...would make it easier for it to be sabotaged
[00:02] <Masked Figure> You would think an "Off" button would be big and red and in the middle of the wall.
[00:03] *** the sounds of fire trucks and police approuching can be heard
[00:03] <Matsuo Shin> ....I think it's time we left this place
[00:03] <Hinako Urashima> Yep. Time to go.
[00:03] <Masked Figure> ...Did our rides home survive the blast?
[00:04] * Matsuo Shin runs for the helicopter
[00:04] <Matsuo Shin> looks like it!
[00:04] <Hinako Urashima> All right--- to the helis!
[00:04] <Matsuo Shin> there is one other thing though...
[00:04] <Matsuo Shin> why would an off button for a portable reactor be inside the building...rather then on the device
[00:05] <Hinako Urashima> I would imagine either as emergency override, or this was deliberate sabotage.
[00:05] * Matsuo Shin activates the helicopter
[00:06] * Hinako Urashima clambers into the helicopter.
[00:06] * Lt. David O`Cain gets into a helicopter
[00:09] * Masked Figure gets in
[00:10] * Matsuo Shin takes off...back towards Tokyo
[00:12] *** Matsuo Shin [Shin@history.um.u-tokyo.ac.jp] has left #suburbansenshi3

[11:34] <Delilha Gelus> I'll help
[11:34] <Matsumi Kaze> yeah we need to get some of this food put away
[11:35] * Delilha Gelus blinks...
[11:35] <Delilha Gelus> um..........................
[11:36] <Delilha Gelus> can I have..a little..help?
[11:36] * Delilha Gelus 's hand has frozen itself to the cooler >.>
[11:37] * Euri Hakinochi looks over from unpacking one of the bags.
[11:37] * Euri Hakinochi frowns a little. (She's like an idiot child sometimes.)
[11:37] <Euri Hakinochi> Hold on, I'll help you.
[11:38] <Matsumi Kaze> powers still fluxing, eh?
[11:38] * Euri Hakinochi wipes her hands together as she goes over.
[11:39] <Delilha Gelus> a bit
[11:40] * Euri Hakinochi grabs Delilha's frozen hand with one of her own. She suppresses a shiver and focuses on sucking the cool energy back into herself, hopefully making the cooler warm enough to release Delilha's hold on it.
[11:42] * Delilha Gelus 's hand flexes...and the ice slowly dissipates, freeing it
[11:42] <Delilha Gelus> thank you..
[11:43] <Euri Hakinochi> You're welcome.
[11:43] <Euri Hakinochi> You really need to learn to get a control on your powers.
[11:43] <Delilha Gelus> yes ^^;;;
[11:43] * Matsumi Kaze works on putting somethings away
[11:43] * Euri Hakinochi goes back to taking out their pre-packaged foodstuffs and putting them in the fridges and cabinets.
[11:45] <Matsumi Kaze> hey euri..did I remember the ginger ale?
[11:46] * Delilha Gelus silently works to put things away......glancing every once in awhile at euri
[11:47] <Euri Hakinochi> Ah, let me check.
[11:47] * Euri Hakinochi checks the cooler bag of drinks that they had brought.
[11:48] <Euri Hakinochi> Juice boxes...milk tea...ah, no, there isn't any ginger ale in here.
[11:48] <Euri Hakinochi> Aw, no, we left the alcohol, too?
[11:48] * Euri Hakinochi makes a face.
[11:48] <Euri Hakinochi> Matsumi, why don't we go into town later for dinner? We can pick up a few things afterwards.
[11:48] <Matsumi Kaze> don't worry! I'll grab some and be right back, ok?
[11:48] <Matsumi Kaze> oh good idea!
[11:49] <Matsumi Kaze> better then mine!
[11:50] * Delilha Gelus finishes putting things away..and looks....a bit unsure of what to do
[11:50] * Euri Hakinochi finishes up as well and leans back against the counter.
[11:50] <Euri Hakinochi> Well, I mean, it's up to you.
[11:51] * Euri Hakinochi feels herself getting a little hungry.
[11:51] <Euri Hakinochi> That was some trip, wasn't it?
[11:51] <Euri Hakinochi> I'm glad we left Tokyo so early so we could get here in the morning.
[11:51] <Matsumi Kaze> mmhm! nothing like a road trip!
[11:55] <Delilha Gelus> but we fle-
[11:55] <Euri Hakinochi> So what do you two ladies want to do?
[11:55] <Matsumi Kaze> details details!
[11:55] <Euri Hakinochi> Play cards? Make lunch?
[11:55] <Matsumi Kaze> hmmm......
[11:55] * Euri Hakinochi snickers.
[11:56] <Matsumi Kaze> I've got an idea
[11:56] <Matsumi Kaze> I'll make lunch...and you two play cards!
[11:56] <Delilha Gelus> me?
[11:58] <Matsumi Kaze> yeah..you silly
[11:58] * Euri Hakinochi gives a sidelong glance to Delilha.
[11:58] <Euri Hakinochi> Do you trust Matsumi's cooking?
[12:00] <Delilha Gelus> I guess.....she's not bad at it...I think
[12:03] <Matsumi Kaze> TOO LATE STARTING NOW!
[12:03] * Matsumi Kaze runs into the kitchen area
[12:03] <Delilha Gelus> ._.
[12:04] * Euri Hakinochi chuckles and grabs out a deck of cards from their Odds & Ends bag. She heads over to the dining table and sits.
[12:05] * Euri Hakinochi takes out the cards and starts shuffling. A sad smile appears on her face as she does so.
[12:07] <Delilha Gelus> is..something wrong?
[12:09] <Euri Hakinochi> Hm?
[12:09] <Euri Hakinochi> Oh.
[12:09] <Euri Hakinochi> I was just reminiscing.
[12:10] <Delilha Gelus> oh ok
[12:13] <Euri Hakinochi> When I was a little girl, after dinner, my family and I would play a few hands of cards.
[12:13] <Euri Hakinochi> Those were nice times.
[12:14] <Delilha Gelus> ..I've never played card games before
[12:15] <Euri Hakinochi> Never?
[12:15] <Euri Hakinochi> They're a great way to spend time.
[12:15] <Euri Hakinochi> Alright so I'm going to do my best and try and teach you to play Gin Rummy.
[12:15] * Delilha Gelus nods, listening intently
[12:16] * Hachi books it down the stairs, grabs her and Nobu's suitcases, peers over at Euri and Delilha, and then quickly scrambles back up the stairs.
[12:16] * Euri Hakinochi deals out 7 cards to the each of them.
[12:17] <spiritflame> Delilha Gelus draws 5♦ 10♦ 4♥ J♦ 8♦ 7♥ K♥
[12:17] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws 8♠ 7♣ 7♦ J♥ J♠ Joker 9♥
[12:18] * Euri Hakinochi frowns. (I guess I forgot to throw out the Jokers)
[12:19] <Euri Hakinochi> So what we're trying to do is win with several options. You could have 3 and 4 of a kind. You could have cards that are 3 or 4 in a row of the same straight, so, say, 3 4 5 of hearts and a 10 jack queen king of spades. Or, if you're really risky, you can have all 7 cards be in a row of the same suit.
[12:20] * Delilha Gelus nods
[12:23] * Euri Hakinochi throws away her Joker card, stating that they aren't used in the game and draws another card to make up for it.
[12:23] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws A♦
[12:23] * Euri Hakinochi then draws a card and places it face up on the table next to the deck.
[12:23] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws 8♥
[12:24] * Delilha Gelus looks at her cards
[12:24] * Euri Hakinochi arranges her hand so the cards are in number order. She explains that to Delilha so it's easier to manage her cards.
[12:25] * Delilha Gelus nods nods
[12:26] <Euri Hakinochi> okay so I'll let you go first.
[12:26] <Euri Hakinochi> You can either draw that 8 of Hearts OR draw a new card from the deck. However, you'll then have 8 cards in your hand.
[12:26] <Euri Hakinochi> You'll have to decide which one you don't want and place it on the discard pile. That'll give me an opportunity to pick it up if I wish.
[12:27] * Euri Hakinochi looks at her hand and nods, knowing exactly how she wants to proceed.
[12:29] * Delilha Gelus thinks...and thinks she figures out what she wants....
[12:32] * Euri Hakinochi looks up at Delilha and raises and eyebrow but she keeps her patience.
[12:32] <spiritflame> Delilha Gelus draws 9♥
[12:33] * Delilha Gelus removes her Jack
[13:22] * Euri Hakinochi eyes widen a bit as she quickly snatches up the Jack of Diamonds and puts it into her hand.
[13:22] <Euri Hakinochi> Hmmmm.
[13:23] * Euri Hakinochi removes the Ace of Diamonds from her hand and places it on the pile.
[13:24] * Delilha Gelus blinks
[13:27] <Delilha Gelus> hm..
[13:28] * Delilha Gelus removes her king of hearts
[13:28] <spiritflame> Delilha Gelus draws 4♣
[13:33] * Euri Hakinochi eyes the king of hearts and then shakes her head, drawing a new card from the pile.
[13:33] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws 10♥
[13:33] * Euri Hakinochi bites her lip, confused if she should keep the card or not.
[13:34] <Euri Hakinochi> Hm..
[13:34] <Euri Hakinochi> See, Delilha.
[13:34] <Euri Hakinochi> I've jut gotten a card that could ruin what I was initially going for. I could take a chance and keep it and try to go for that instead.
[13:34] * Euri Hakinochi makes a decision and removes the 8 of Spades.
[13:35] <Euri Hakinochi> Oh, also.
[13:35] <Euri Hakinochi> Make sure that you draw or take a card first, and then discard your extra card.
[13:36] <Delilha Gelus> um ok
[13:36] <Euri Hakinochi> Otherwise, you might be discarding something you might need later down the line, you know?
[13:36] <Delilha Gelus> yeah I think I understand
[13:37] * Nobu comes down and sneaks into the kitchen. He pulls on Matsumi's bright blue shirt to get her attention.
[13:37] <Euri Hakinochi> (This..this is kind of nice, actually. I should teach Hachi and Nobu how to play cards. Unless if their friends have already taught them...)
[13:38] <Matsumi Kaze> hm? what is it, nobu :)
[13:40] <Nobu> Can me and Hachi have snacks in our rooms? We're playing Dragons n' Witches and we're getting hungry.
[13:41] <Matsumi Kaze> sure..whatcha like?
[13:41] <spiritflame> Delilha Gelus draws 2♠
[13:42] * Delilha Gelus frowns
[13:42] <Delilha Gelus> if I have a card I don't want to use..what do I do with it?
[13:42] <Nobu> Chocolate!
[13:42] <Euri Hakinochi> You discard it onto the pile.
[13:42] <Euri Hakinochi> Sometimes you'll get cards you can't use or don't need so you discard them right away.
[13:43] <Delilha Gelus> and do I have to discard one from my hand as well?
[13:43] * Euri Hakinochi shakes her head.
[13:44] <Euri Hakinochi> The card you've drawn from the deck is your 8th card. Once you discard that you'll be back to 7.
[13:44] * Delilha Gelus nods..and discards the card she drew..the 2 of spades
[13:46] * Euri Hakinochi quickly decides she doesn't need that card and draws a new card from the deck.
[13:46] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws 3♥
[13:46] * Euri Hakinochi immediately discards the 3 of Hearts.
[13:46] * Matsumi Kaze goes and hands nobu some bars "heh here you go ^_^"
[13:47] * Nobu gives Matsumi a tight hug before scampering off with the goods!
[13:47] <spiritflame> Delilha Gelus draws 2♥
[13:48] * Delilha Gelus frowns...and sets aside the 2 of hearts
[13:48] * Nobu laughs.
[13:48] <Euri Hakinochi> ^
[13:49] <Euri Hakinochi> What's the matter?
[13:49] <Euri Hakinochi> Did you see cards that could've helped you win?
[13:49] * Euri Hakinochi draws a new card from the deck.
[13:49] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws 10♠
[13:49] * Euri Hakinochi sharply intakes some breath before discarding the 10 of Spades.
[13:50] <Delilha Gelus> um yes
[13:50] <Delilha Gelus> ..mo....miss euri..can I ask you something
[13:51] <Euri Hakinochi> Hm?
[13:51] <Euri Hakinochi> What is it?
[13:52] <Delilha Gelus> ....do you...dislike me?
[13:52] <spiritflame> Delilha Gelus draws 5♠
[13:52] * Delilha Gelus pauses..and removes the 10 of diamonds
[13:53] <Euri Hakinochi> (Ugh, I should've kept that other ten.)
[13:54] * Euri Hakinochi ignores the voices in her head as she looks at Delilha, drawing another card.
[13:54] <Euri Hakinochi> Why do you ask?
[13:54] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws K♠
[13:54] * Euri Hakinochi immediately discards the King of Spades.
[13:55] <Delilha Gelus> I don't know I...sometimes I feel you don't want me here
[13:56] <spiritflame> Delilha Gelus draws 3♠
[13:56] * Delilha Gelus discards the 3 of spades
[13:57] * Euri Hakinochi takes a breath and draws another card.
[13:57] * Euri Hakinochi is glad she's partly distracted by the game so she doesn't feel as uncomfortable with her words.
[13:58] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws 5♥
[13:58] * Euri Hakinochi discards the 5 of Hearts.
[13:58] <Euri Hakinochi> You were...unexpected in my life, Delilha.
[13:59] <Euri Hakinochi> It's not that I have a problem so much with who you are but, it's more that I have a problem with what you are.
[13:59] <Delilha Gelus> ..I know...I didn't..expect any of this either
[13:59] <Delilha Gelus> ..am I thing?
[13:59] <spiritflame> Delilha Gelus draws 2♠
[13:59] * Delilha Gelus discards the 2 of spades
[14:00] * Euri Hakinochi frowns a little.
[14:00] <Euri Hakinochi> Well, no.
[14:00] <Euri Hakinochi> You're..human. Or some sort of mished up human.
[14:00] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws 2♥
[14:03] <Delilha Gelus> sorry..I'm not trying to ruin the game..
[14:08] * Euri Hakinochi laughs a little as she discards the 2. (Should've kept those twos.)
[14:08] <Euri Hakinochi> No, I don't think you are.
[14:08] <Euri Hakinochi> It might have been irresponsible, how I acted when I first learned about you.
[14:08] <Euri Hakinochi> My...life has been very difficult.
[14:09] <Euri Hakinochi> I suppose that isn't any kind of excuse but that's how it's been for me.
[14:09] <Euri Hakinochi> I didn't want Somethign Unexpected coming into my life and ruining what peace I have been trying so desparately to make on my own.
[14:09] <Euri Hakinochi> And the fact that you're one of the 400?
[14:09] <Euri Hakinochi> That's something I just..I don't think I can ever forgive.
[14:09] <Euri Hakinochi> it's not you.
[14:10] * Delilha Gelus nods slowly...
[14:10] <Euri Hakinochi> I just feel like that project goes against...against life itself.
[14:12] <spiritflame> Delilha Gelus draws J♣
[14:12] <Euri Hakinochi> I think... it'll take me quite some time to get over that...that that's what you are.
[14:13] * Delilha Gelus discards the Jack of Clubs
[14:13] <Euri Hakinochi> It's like.. a piece of me was stolen without my consent and knowledge.
[14:13] * Euri Hakinochi quickly snatches up the Jack of Clubs but then pauses, unsure of what to do next.
[14:14] <Euri Hakinochi> And then this supposed child of mine was born into a completely different world and you come to me almost fully grown?
[14:15] <Euri Hakinochi> You are just.... somethign difficult.
[14:15] * Euri Hakinochi makes a tough decision and gets rid of her 7 of Clubs.
[14:16] <Delilha Gelus> ok
[14:17] <Delilha Gelus> /carddraw 1
[14:17] <spiritflame> Delilha Gelus draws 7♥

[14:20] <Delilha Gelus> ..it's difficult for me too
[14:20] <Delilha Gelus> ...I don't know...what to think of all of this
[14:20] <Delilha Gelus> ..or how to..define you and..matsumi in my life
[14:21] <Euri Hakinochi> ...how has your life been, living with Matsumi?
[14:23] <Delilha Gelus> alright...I have restarted my work as a blacksmith
[14:25] <Euri Hakinochi> Oh? You've found work, then?
[14:27] <Delilha Gelus> I work within the Hotel
[14:27] <Delilha Gelus> um..I think it is your turn
[14:30] <Euri Hakinochi> Oh, sorry. *^^*;
[14:30] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws J♠

[14:31] <spiritflame> Euri Hakinochi draws 5♦

[14:35] <Delilha Gelus> O_O
[14:35] <Euri Hakinochi> And so I've won this round.
[14:38] <Matsumi Kaze> lunch is ready!
[14:39] <Euri Hakinochi> Delilha, do you want to get the kids?
[14:39] <Euri Hakinochi> I'll clean up and set up the table.
[14:39] <Delilha Gelus> oh..oh yes!
[14:39] * Delilha Gelus heads upstairs
[14:44] * Euri Hakinochi takes the cards and put them back into the box and puts the deck of cards away. She gets to her feet and goes back into the kitchen.
[14:44] <Euri Hakinochi> Need help?
[14:47] <Matsumi Kaze> oh sure! help met set the food up
[14:47] * Matsumi Kaze has made a plate of sandwiches, plate of onigiri, and some other sorts of snacks
[14:49] * Euri Hakinochi starts bringing the dishes out to the table.
[14:49] <Euri Hakinochi> Looks good, Matsumi!
[14:51] * Euri Hakinochi gets out napkins the drinks for everyone.
[14:51] <Matsumi Kaze> *grins* I'm pretty good at this!
[14:54] * Euri Hakinochi smiles and calls up the stairs, "What's taking so long?"
[15:12] <Matsumi Kaze> they are taking their time..hope everything is ok
[15:17] * Nobu comes down the stairs, looking innocent.
[15:17] * Hachi comes down, giggling.
[15:20] * Delilha Gelus walks downstairs
[15:22] * Hachi sits at the table, quieting.
[15:22] <Nobu> Wao! Auntie Matsumi made these??
[15:22] * Nobu climbs onto his seat, eyeing the food excitedly.
[15:23] <Matsumi Kaze> yeah totally!
[15:24] <Euri Hakinochi> Settle down, you two.
[15:24] * Euri Hakinochi puts her hands together in front of her and says, "Itadakimasu."
[15:26] <Matsumi Kaze> itadakimasu!
[15:26] <Delilha Gelus> huh what?
[15:31] <Hachi> It's what we say before we eat. (Doesn't she know anything? I thought Auntie Matsumi was taking care of her.)
[15:31] <Nobu> Like this!
[15:31] * Nobu shows Delilha what to do and what to say.
[15:33] * Delilha Gelus follows what nobu does!
[15:33] * Euri Hakinochi digs in with everyone else. Commenting on how not burnt and tasty it all is.

[20:52] <@The Proprietor> Not much in the land of the rising Sun.
[20:52] * @Texas_Samurai slowly nods to Proppy
[20:52] * @The Proprietor heads with the two of them closer to the crowds
[20:53] * People in the crowds are carrying away full bags that say "thank you!" on them, and are not made of plastic.
[20:54] * black crow sits on a lamppost near the shop
[20:54] <Arataka Wyldsord> It certainly seems like a massive promotion.
[20:54] <@Texas_Samurai> Kind of a carnival atmosphere~
[20:55] * The Proprietor looks at Sandman's Shop.
[20:55] *** Sandman's Shop is your average everyday Sandman's Shop

[20:55] *** There is a whoosh of steam and spray of water, and several bricks swing away on top of the building to reveal a cheery and stylized smiling face that winks at observers, and then is hidden again as the bricks swing to cover it!
[20:56] <@The Proprietor> Really.
[20:56] * People in the crowds walk by, carrying hand-carved chairs.
[20:56] <Arataka Wyldsord> Amusing for children.
[20:56] * @The Proprietor leads the way, flanked by the two of them.
[20:56] * People in the crowds slowly make way as the line snakes into the store.
[20:57] *** Tiny carved bears emerge from a little train track on an alcove outside the the second floor and play a song on cymbals before going back into an alcove on the other side of the building.

[20:59] *** Pipes with steam at the top of the building hiss with steam and play a "toot toot" style song.
[20:59] <@Texas_Samurai> Back in mah day this was th' style!
[21:00] <Arataka Wyldsord> For amusement parks, perhaps.
[21:00] * People in the crowds keep going buy with full bags of stuff they have purchased.
[21:00] * @The Proprietor slowly makes his way to the doors with the others
[21:00] * Hinako Urashima sees the overtly-flashy store.... and some familiar faces in the crowds.
[21:00] <Hinako Urashima> Hey guys!
[21:00] <@Texas_Samurai> Wonder whut-all they's buyin'...
[21:00] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte calmly follows
[21:01] <@The Proprietor> Hallo Hinako!
[21:01] * Vermellia X. Rosso LANDS on Granpa's shoulders!
[21:01] <Vermellia X. Rosso> YOOOO!
[21:01] *** The doors say, "Welcome to the Sandman's Shop--- your home for rustic luxury! Proud to be in Tokyo!
[21:01] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I heard there was a big store opening!
[21:01] <@The Proprietor> Vermellia you're almost 20 can you not
[21:02] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte smirks
[21:02] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Shhh
[21:02] <Hinako Urashima> :3
[21:02] <Vermellia X. Rosso> I'm short I can get away with it
[21:02] * The doors open before them, with a hiss of steam.
[21:02] <@The Proprietor> geek
[21:02] <@The Proprietor> ^grrk
[21:02] <Aratasujou> You no be that short.
[21:02] * @The Proprietor carries her in
[21:02] * The doors are actually low enough that Vermellia will bump her head if she goes through them on top of X's shoulders.
[21:02] * @Texas_Samurai laughs
[21:02] * Vermellia X. Rosso ducks
[21:03] * Aratasujou poke-pokes Vermellia with her Squeaky-mallet.
[21:03] * Arataka Wyldsord follows behind the others
[21:03] * Hinako Urashima takes a look around--- what kinda stuff is here?
[21:03] * Arataka Wyldsord keeps her senses alert.
[21:04] *** The inside of the store almost looks bigger than it could possibly be on the outside. Pipes criss-cross the ceiling, there is more than one floor, and giant displays of goods are layed out before you. It's actually so very loud it could be painful to use super-hearing here.
[21:05] <Hinako Urashima> (Very steampunk, in a way...)
[21:05] * Vermellia X. Rosso winces
[21:06] * @The Proprietor hands out special earplugs
[21:06] *** There are piles of rustic chairs, jars upon jars of honey, strange fruit preserves, caviar jars, sides of meat, with water running over it from the ceiling.
[21:06] * @Texas_Samurai , Vermellia and Aratak put them on
[21:06] *** In several places, people skillfully play musical instruments in different ditties that come together in a gestalt melody.
[21:06] <@Texas_Samurai> That honey....
[21:07] <Hinako Urashima> (Definitely attention-grabbing.... could do with about 75% less noise pollution, though.)
[21:07] <@The Proprietor> Yes.
[21:07] <Arataka Wyldsord> Is this...
[21:07] <@The Proprietor> Doubtless.
[21:07] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte puts the plugs in
[21:07] <Aratasujou> What be wrong? Something bad?
[21:07] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> hm?
[21:07] *** There is a spot almost as large as a patio that is covered in INCREDIBLY detailed woodcarvings.
[21:07] * @The Proprietor doesn't answer.
[21:07] * Aratasujou already has audio dampers included in her hearing.
[21:08] <Vermellia X. Rosso> That carving... it's so good...
[21:08] * Aratasujou examines the woodcarvings and compares them in her mind to try and determine if there's a recurring theme.
[21:08] * Hinako Urashima has brought her own ear-plugs. Her hearing might not be as sensitive, but she would like to preserve it for the next several decades.
[21:09] <@Texas_Samurai> Like that furniture we stock...
[21:09] <Arataka Wyldsord> This is definitely his.
[21:09] *** the carvings are in incredibly detail, in woods that seem to hold features incredibly well---some of it even has leaves still coming from it in artistic places, like one carving where the leaves form a parosol held by an 18th century woman.
[21:09] *** Waterclocks are on the wall, and caged birds chirp and sing.
[21:10] <Hinako Urashima> (Hold--- they said "his"....)
[21:10] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> is it who I think it is
[21:11] *** There are shelves full of intricate sculpture and statuary. Novelties such as armor for cats and chipmunks, as well as a "custom order" form. Paintings adorn everywhere on the wall---at least those which are not being bought right now.
[21:11] <@The Proprietor> Indeed.
[21:11] <Aratasujou> Who you think it be? Me wanna know.
[21:11] <@The Proprietor> Remember the high level of crafstmanship in Wooden Gemini.
[21:12] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte nods
[21:12] * @Texas_Samurai shudders
[21:12] <@Texas_Samurai> Ddin't someone else carve her...
[21:12] *** There are shawls and doilies made of rope and vine. There are glass pitchers and containers that have insects frozen within them.
[21:12] <@The Proprietor> Indeed. But who practices the art nowadays~?
[21:12] <@The Proprietor> And we've been buying this sort of inventory from only one person.
[21:13] <@The Proprietor> This must be the store I sold him.
[21:13] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte glances at Properietor...
[21:14] <Aratasujou> Who?
[21:14] <@Texas_Samurai> why'd you do a fool thing like that?
[21:14] *** There are amazing things here that border upon unimaginable. Two tiny rabbits hop around on the top of a tea kettle which steams with tea.
[21:14] * @The Proprietor does not answer.
[21:14] *** People enter more and more and more, with gobs of money in their hands, and spend it all here.
[21:14] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Granpa knows what he's doing... right?
[21:14] * @The Proprietor does not answer.
[21:15] <Arataka Wyldsord> Aratasujou... Mister Kerrick.
[21:15] *** One corner has fishbowls that are in the shape of angels and pixies with exotic fish swimming within them.
[21:15] <@Texas_Samurai> He's cleanin' up...
[21:16] <The doors> A steam pipe blows air into some spinning pieces of artwork that reflect thel ight in stained glass.
[21:16] *** ^
[21:16] <Hinako Urashima> (Wait.... this is Simon's store? That Simon?)
[21:16] * @The Proprietor adusts his glasses, which go all shiny-reflective so his expression can't be read. but a small smile plays at one corner of his mouth for an instant.
[21:17] *** There is an entire section made with sidewalk and walkway bricks that have sigils, designs, and art on them, for a considerable price. They are selling and selling and selling.
[21:17] * @The Proprietor nods to Arataka
[21:18] * Arataka Wyldsord contacts the people she needs to to keep a track of the purchasers of the special sidewalk and walkway bricks.
[21:18] *** This particular walkway is blocked now because there is a cluster of people listening to one of the musicians.
[21:19] <Vermellia X. Rosso> W--wh... WAAAAA
[21:19] * Vermellia X. Rosso tumbles off Grandpa right into that cluster, knocking them away!
[21:19] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> ????
[21:19] * Arataka Wyldsord takes a fire pictures of the designs.
[21:19] <Arataka Wyldsord> ^few
[21:19] * Aratasujou scans for magic.
[21:19] <@The Proprietor> Vermellia! don't be so clumsy!
[21:20] * @The Proprietor apologizes to the people and hefts her up again
[21:20] *** The people tangle in with Vermellia's limbs and legs and arms, trying to all get up at once. The musician actually changes his music to a frenetic beat to match what is happening!
[21:20] <Vermellia X. Rosso> S-sorry granpa, I dunno what happened~
[21:20] * Vermellia X. Rosso gets pulled out
[21:20] <spiritflame> Store rolls 2d6 [ 3, 1 ]
[21:20] * Store gives off no magical signature right now.
[21:20] * Arataka Wyldsord pockets her iphone
[21:21] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte silently watches the crowds..
[21:22] * @The Proprietor goes over to Kaelyn.
[21:22] * @The Proprietor whispers to her
[21:22] * The crowds are all going everywhere at once. You actually have to walk fairly slowly because of all the people trying to get by, and trying on hats, and picking up wedges of cheese, and putting their hands in the sprinkles of water that drip from the celing.
[21:22] * Aratasujou listens in on as many of the transactions as she can to try and determine what's being sold for how much.
[21:23] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte nods
[21:23] <Hinako Urashima> (Like kids in a candy store....)
[21:23] * Arataka Wyldsord hands out parasols to the others
[21:23] *** The transactions can't be heard from here.
[21:23] *** It's too loud and you are wearing earplugs, remember?
[21:24] *** A nearby shelf has a large and ornate wooden rack full of "FORBIDDEN" brand wines.
[21:25] * Arataka Wyldsord nods to Kaelyn and X
[21:25] * @The Proprietor nods back
[21:26] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte nods back
[21:26] *** There are woven sandals and belts from holders that are very clearly of genuine leather. Flowers in bouqets that look absolutely incredible hand from the ceiling.
[21:27] * Aratasujou has audio dampers included in her hearing. Not the same as earplugs. >:3
[21:27] * The crowds are eating this up. People are picking up so many things that some of the shelves are flat-out empty or being emptied right now.
[21:27] <Aratasujou> This place no be called Needful Things, right?
[21:28] <@The Proprietor> It's a highly successful retail establishment.
[21:28] *** Up on the right is a shelf laballed "Hand-hammered pants" in several languages.
[21:29] *** hanging from a chandelier are a number of circlets with garnets and rose quartz inset.
[21:29] <@Texas_Samurai> Where does he git all this stuiff?
[21:29] *** There is a huge curtain in the way blocking further progress in this direction.
[21:30] <@The Proprietor> Enclave, I'd wager.
[21:30] *** it's not currently possible to see what is behind it.
[21:30] <@The Proprietor> He's got a basically captive populace.
[21:30] <@The Proprietor> What else are they going to do?
[21:31] <@The Proprietor> Churn out trinkets and items for the Industrialized planes.
[21:31] *** The song from the nearest musician changes.
[21:31] * Aratasujou frowns at the mention of the name of that place. >:[
[21:31] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Well I guess they gotta have a n economy...
[21:31] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> hm...
[21:31] <Hinako Urashima> One way to bring in capital, I would imagine....
[21:32] <@The Proprietor> And a lot of it, by the look of this.
[21:32] <@The Proprietor> Why, they could have their goods in every home~
[21:32] <Arataka Wyldsord> All over the city.
[21:32] * The crowds keep picking things up and walking away from the group.
[21:32] <Arataka Wyldsord> And perhaps beyond.
[21:32] <@The Proprietor> Yes.
[21:32] <@The Proprietor> Jedite's business model.
[21:32] <@The Proprietor> Back in The Day™
[21:33] <Hinako Urashima> Keep 'im coming back for more.
[21:33] *** A woman leads a man excitedly past the group, and takes him behind the curtain.
[21:33] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte pauses
[21:33] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte looks to see if people are actually paying for things
[21:33] <@The Proprietor> That was part of it, yes~
[21:33] * Aratasujou looks to see what else is going on behind that curtain and floats over.
[21:34] *** You can't see it from here. There's too much clutter, and too many people and items in the way. Also, just a reminder, it's still really loud.
[21:34] *** The curtain that Aratasujou floated up to has very little sound coming from the other side of it.
[21:35] * @The Proprietor hands out small bluetoth earpieces to the party.
[21:35] <@The Proprietor> This will help us hear each other.
[21:35] * Vermellia X. Rosso puts one on
[21:35] <Vermellia X. Rosso> Geh, I hate this stuff.
[21:35] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte puts the earpiece in
[21:35] <Vermellia X. Rosso> It makes me look like an a[BLEEP]le
[21:36] * @The Proprietor whaps her lightly. "language" XD
[21:36] * Two teenagers almost knock Vermellia down, rushing to look at a strange type of olive oil being sold.
[21:36] * Vermellia X. Rosso is on her grandpa's shoulders again :P
[21:36] * Aratasujou engages her audio filters to help try and tune out the worst of the background noise. Especially the music.
[21:37] * Aratasujou looks behind the curtain.
[21:37] *** There is another curtain behind that curtain.
[21:37] * Hinako Urashima makes use of one of the earpieces.
[21:38] <Aratasujou> :/
[21:39] * Aratasujou looks behind the next curtain.
[21:39] <Two teenagers> There is what looks like a coat rack covered in luxurious furs next to Kaelyn.
[21:39] *** There is actually ANOTHER curtain behind that second curtain, about 2 feet back. It's quieter here.
[21:42] *** A stand of dyed and embossed quill pen sets is on a small stand by Proprietor.
[21:42] * Aratasujou goes back and looks for Xadium and the others.
[21:43] *** You find them immediately. You were only 3 feet away.
[21:43] * Aratasujou tugs on the sleeve of the first person from the Hotel she comes to.
[21:44] <Arataka Wyldsord> Yes?
[21:44] * @The Proprietor looks at this stand.
[21:44] *** The musicians suddenly stop playing, and then all play an opus with grand gestures together throughout the store.
[21:44] *** The quills are from real birds. No question about it.
[21:45] *** Each quil is resting on top of a bit of wax that says "authentic" scribed into it in Japanese.
[21:45] * Two teenagers push by, money in hand.
[21:45] <Aratasujou> I observed two people go behind that curtain but they vanished. There are a series of curtains behind that first one. I didn't want to go to far without letting the rest of you know. The whole area felt like a good setup for an ambush or abduction since it's much quieter past the second curtain.
[21:45] <@The Proprietor> (Because Teenagers want quills......?)
[21:46] <@The Proprietor> I wouldn't trespass too deeply.
[21:46] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> ..it does seem..odd
[21:46] * Two teenagers seem to, and pick two sets of them up, and walk off before being lost in the crowd.
[21:46] <@The Proprietor> This is a social call.
[21:46] * Aratasujou nod-nods.
[21:46] * @The Proprietor kooks at what the demographic for this place is
[21:47] <@The Proprietor> Kae. See where those kids go and what they do with those quills.
[21:47] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte nods...and tries to follow the teenagers
[21:48] *** Kaelyn disappears from your sight behind some tourists, and can't be seen at all after a few ceramic fish on top of a table covered with sand whistle and spout clouds of steam into the air.
[21:48] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte continues to follow
[21:50] *** Kaelyn, the two teens meet up with a third one who is standing over some brightly colored scarves, and speak together for a while about whether they think their grandfather would like these.
[21:50] <@The Proprietor> *on bluetooth* Use a homonculus.
[21:50] * Aratasujou gets to work cataloging everything that's being sold.
[21:51] <@The Proprietor> * I want to see what happens when they get home with the items *
[21:52] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte bites her thumb hard...and lets a drop of blood fall to the ground...muttering a spell....the blood pools..forms..and turns into a tiny homunculas...which flies after the two teens
[21:53] *** There is a butter churn next to Gemini full of umbrellas as well as the type of fan that Subaru uses.
[21:53] <spiritflame> Store rolls 2d6 [ 6, 1 ]
[21:53] * @Texas_Samurai looks enthralled and goes t' git some
[21:53] * Arataka Wyldsord puts a hand on Gemini's shoulder and shakes her head.
[21:54] *** They seem to be made of bamboo bits, for support.
[21:54] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte returns to the group
[21:54] <@Texas_Samurai> Shouldn't we buys omethin'?
[21:54] <@Texas_Samurai> ^buy
[21:55] <@The Proprietor> Yes.
[21:55] <@The Proprietor> Buy a sampling of those bricks.
[21:55] * @The Proprietor nods to Arataka
[21:55] * @The Proprietor tosses her a bag
[21:56] *** The two people who went behind the curtains before do so again, carrying something delicately inside a cloth-covered box.
[21:56] * Arataka Wyldsord selects s representative sample of the decorative bricks and places them in a shopping basket
[21:56] * Aratasujou gets a fan for Subaru. ^___^
[21:56] *** Congratulations, you now have a very very very heavy basket.
[21:57] * Arataka Wyldsord is not deterred
[21:57] *** is the basket deterred?
[21:57] * Arataka Wyldsord however, is out of hands and so looks for ashopping *cart*
[21:58] * Are your baskets cheap quality?
[21:59] * Store baskets are of stout quality! It could have been one from hammerspace that was not.
[22:00] * Arataka Wyldsord is using a store basket and transfers to a store cart
[22:01] *** A woman walks past holding a wrapped up violin.
[22:01] *** There are no store carts.
[22:01] * Arataka Wyldsord frowns
[22:02] * Arataka Wyldsord calls a Helper.
[22:02] * Arataka Wyldsord pays for the bricks in the meantime
[22:02] *** psYchO_saKi [murdergrrl@seven.torchwood.or.jp] has joined #suburbansenshi3
[22:02] <@spiritflame> konbanwa psycho_saki
[22:02] *** You can't pay for them here.
[22:03] * Arataka Wyldsord goes to where she can pay for them, then.
[22:03] *** It looks like that there are people lined up in one corner who look like they are waiting to leave. You might be with them.
[22:03] * psYchO_saKi follows her with a foldable shopping cart slung over her back
[22:04] * psYchO_saKi has reinforced it with bits of iron plate and sturdy wheels.
[22:04] *** After you finally get to the end of the line, there is floating raft within a glass sink to put your purchases on.
[22:04] * Store Patrons looks at Psycho_SaKI.
[22:04] *** Psycho_SaKI is

More information about her is Here.
Her image Song is: 'Demonoid Phenomenon' by Rob Zombie. She is Level 38.
[22:04] * Arataka Wyldsord puts the bricks on it.
[22:04] <Store Patrons> .......
[22:05] <Aratasujou> Why Saki be here?
[22:05] * psYchO_saKi looks like any ol' Akihabara cosplayer.
[22:05] <@The Proprietor> to do heavy lifting I suppose.
[22:05] * Store Patrons 's reactions totally depend on if she's packing obvious heat.
[22:05] <@The Proprietor> Literally.
[22:05] *** Was she, when she came up?
[22:05] * psYchO_saKi has it all under her dress as usual.
[22:06] * Store Patrons ignore her then.
[22:06] <Store Patrons> ♫
[22:06] <Smiling elderly japanese man in Kimono> Ah.
[22:06] * psYchO_saKi casually looks around the area and notes obvious exits and who would have to be killed in order to make a fast exist.
[22:06] <Smiling elderly japanese man in Kimono> You have purchased our bricks. Each was hand decorated and baked! For you.... $32.00
[22:06] * psYchO_saKi constantly recalculates this as the otehrs do their business
[22:07] * Arataka Wyldsord makes payment.
[22:07] <Arataka Wyldsord> These are quite fancy. Are they selling well?
[22:07] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> hm...
[22:07] *** Lots and lots and lots of people would have to be killed, and thousands upon thousands in damage would have to be done to "make" an exit through the merchandise and crowd.
[22:07] * psYchO_saKi notes it's entirely do-able then.
[22:08] <Smiling elderly japanese man in Kimono> (( Really, there are no fast exits. There are not even really any exit signs. ))
[22:08] * psYchO_saKi would kill them all.
[22:08] * psYchO_saKi would leave the store a crater. but that's not going to happen.
[22:08] * Aratasujou could just escape by cloaking herself, engaging her contragrav abilities, and just fly above everyones heads. =^ ^=
[22:08] * psYchO_saKi is just doing this as a mental exercise
[22:08] <Smiling elderly japanese man in Kimono> Oh, yes. They are sometimes used for good luck, or for lining a walkway. Very popular. I see you have chosen a popular design!
[22:08] <Smiling elderly japanese man in Kimono> Do you wish to haggle?
[22:09] *** Actually, I dunno if she could do that if Saki is right next to her, but whatever.
[22:09] <Arataka Wyldsord> No thank you. I find hanggling to be distasteful.
[22:09] <Arataka Wyldsord> ^haggling
[22:09] <Smiling elderly japanese man in Kimono> But of course!
[22:09] <Smiling elderly japanese man in Kimono> Did you find everything you were looking for? If not, we hope you shall return! Our merchandise changes regularly!
[22:10] * psYchO_saKi basically is a magical dead zone now, yes. Thanks to her new body. If Arata was using magic near her it would fail.
[22:10] <Arataka Wyldsord> I'm sure I will come here again :D
[22:10] * Arataka Wyldsord bows
[22:10] <Arataka Wyldsord> Sakura-April, let's go.
[22:10] *** Sakura April's presence seem to have no effect whatsoever on things going on around her in the store.
[22:11] * Aratasujou has more than one form of power system. ^___~
[22:11] *** The exit is another curtain threaded with white beads.
[22:11] * psYchO_saKi gathers and hefts the bricks in her arms
[22:11] *** people are sort of crowding in behind you for their turn too.
[22:11] * psYchO_saKi heads out
[22:11] * Arataka Wyldsord retruns to the group
[22:11] <Arataka Wyldsord> They've been acquited.
[22:11] <Arataka Wyldsord> ^acquired.
[22:12] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte nods
[22:12] *** lol, I KNEW you didn't mean that! Not yet!
[22:12] <Aratasujou> Saki be giving everyone stink-eye agains.
[22:12] * Arataka Wyldsord shrugs
[22:13] *** It's actually EXTREMELY difficult to fight the current of people trying to get through the exit. A superpowered being could manage it, however. Note that it was difficult because of all the traffic, however.
[22:14] * Arataka Wyldsord was apparently forced tro exit and re-enter
[22:15] <Aratasujou> signals Arataka and Sakura-April and CHALLENGES them to a game of Regicide.
[22:15] * psYchO_saKi does regicide for real kid
[22:15] * Arataka Wyldsord is working right now <_<
[22:17] * Balding man bumps into The Proprietor "Oh, I'm sorry, I was just looking for the candle secion. I apologize!"
[22:17] * Balding man excuses himself, bowing as he retreats, and walks through the curtain.
[22:18] <Hinako Urashima> (Suspicious indeed...)
[22:18] <Aratasujou> Oooo, me be getting recalled. Me go bye-bye!
[22:18] <@The Proprietor> See you.
[22:19] * @The Proprietor checks himself to make sure nothing has been stolen or added.
[22:19] *** It's easy to follow the tide of people to get back out.
[22:19] * Balding man didn't take/add.
[22:20] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte quietly observes
[22:20] *** Aratasujou has left #suburbansenshi3 (NYORO~!! =^ ^=)
[22:21] <@Texas_Samurai> Ah'm surprised th' Boss ain't makin' a showin' here
[22:21] <@The Proprietor> You sure, Gems?
[22:21] <Kaelyn P. Peinforte> remember..he can change form
[22:22] <@Texas_Samurai> Ah guess he could look like anythin'.
[22:22] * Mid-40's Japanese Woman attempts to pick up an expensive fur coat.
[22:22] *** There is a loud clanging of chains.
[22:22] * @The Proprietor , Vermellia, Gemini and Arataka turn to look
[22:23] * Kaelyn P. Peinforte glance over
[22:23] * Hinako Urashima observes out of the corner of her eye.
[22:25] * Mid-40's Japanese Woman picks up the coat, but it's got honest-to-goodness shackled chains going through the sleeves that rattle as it moves. The woman reads something on the lock at the bottom, and goes away with it.
[22:25] * Mid-40's Japanese Woman is away
[22:26] * Several Children go by the group, pick up fans from the vase, show them to a woman who appears to be an elderly family member, and the lot of them walk off.

[19:44] <Saturn Knight> We do.
[19:45] <Saturn Knight> Bora, it is said that a Saturnian is doomed to only fall in love once in their lives, and to remain dedicated to that one person for all eternity.
[19:45] <Saturn Knight> It is rare for a Saturnian to find a second love. It would seem the spirits have deemed that this miracle would be blessed upon our meeting and time together.
[19:46] * Saturn Knight smiles. "When we first met, you were rather brash and you really hated me...I mean REALLY hated me. I'm pretty sure you wanted me dead when we first met."

[19:48] <Saturn Knight> After losing my first love, I never thought I could move forward again. Bora Auralee...you've made my most heartfelt wish come true...to love again. I pledge my heart, my body, my soul to you.
[19:49] * Bora seems a bit..speechless for a moment..
[19:50] <Bora> ..I came to this world a stranger..a lost soul...one filled with anger and pain. My only thoughts were on vengeance and the guardianship of my lady. However, it is said that a rebirth can bring new perspective....
[19:50] < King Obsidian > .......
[19:51] <Bora> it was through such an event I saw the man before me not as another enemy or foe but as someone for whom I could care..for whom I could love....
[19:51] <Bora> the one for whom I trusted the three to bind me with their heart forever more..and the one.........for whom I can once against give family...family for which I had thought I lost forever
[19:52] <Bora> and now....I see a new future for me...one for which I wish to spend the rest of my life with the one I love....

[20:06] * The Reverend Doctor H. Elios almost said "waifu"
[20:07] <Saturn Knight> By all the Gods and Spirits that be, I Do.
