CHG RIGHT NOW opened memo on board YO BABE.
CHG: It'ss just uss then?
CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] RIGHT NOW responded to memo.
CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] RIGHT NOW responded to memo.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] swiftly pockets her potion. --
CHG: Oh, and Tufian too. I wassn't expecting you.
CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] RIGHT NOW responded to memo.
CPR: hiya guys! whaT are we Talking abouT?
CXE: it's good to actually SEE everyone!
CNA: i hear yøu there, babe.
CHG: It iss good, issn't it?
CXE: yeah, that's why i said it.
CPR: man, iT's kinda weird To acTually see people again.
CPR: insTead of jusT TexT all The Time.
CHG: Haven't you had many visitorss, Tufian?
CPR: iIi meanT so many people aT The same Time...
CPR: jeez, iT's all semanTics wiTh you guys.
CHG: I wass just clarifying.
CNA: yø, it's just like back beføre we entered the game, tufie.
CXE: pick up yer game, i know yer capable o' keeping up.
CNA: nø need tø get sø høstile, raxy.
CPR: nah iT's cool. you know how hard iT is for seadwellers To conTain Their murder-y insTincTs.
CXE: arr you trying to tell me something there, tuf?
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] 's eyes gleam maliciously. --
CNA: this is ailsca's place, take it sømewhere else.
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] thinks back on what he said to try and find the apparent hidden meaning. --
CPR: righT, sorry. we'll keep iT under conTrol.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] smirks. --
CXE: oh, i don't know. it might prove too hard for a seadweller like me.
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] glances between the two trolls with a frown. --
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] grins infuriatingly before turning to the other trolls. --
CPR: so, whaT were you guys up To before The parTy crash Thing happened?
CNA: prøbably having intense girly discussiøns, yø.
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] waggles his eyebrows. --
CXE: yeah, it was so feminine. and talkative.
CPR: ThaT sounds less Than inTeresTing, noT gonna lie. buT whaT ever floaTs your boaT.
CHG: It wass interessting, actually, but tasstess differ.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] blushes subtly. --
CNA: did it have sømething tø dø with my løve pøtiøn, babe?
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] winks at Araxie. --
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] glances between trolls. --
CNA: i make løve pøtiøns, yø.
CNA: yøu want tø buy øne, pal?
CPR: nah iIi'm good. iIi jusT didn'T Think Raxie would be inTeresTed.
CXE: why did you tell HIM o' all people!?!?!?
CNA: yeah, øne can ønly wønder whø raxy cøuld be trying tø seduce, yø. ;)
CPR: curiouser and curiouser...
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] fumes --
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] winks at her again. --
CXE: you ken just say it ain't going to work, we all KNOW that.
CNA: øf cøurse it's gøing tø wørk, yø.
CHG: I'm ssure I made it correctly.
CNA: and raxy i'm nøt sure what yøu're talking abøut, babe.
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] has to bit the inside of his cheek to keep a straight face. He is only mostly sucessful. --
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] is clearly flustered and not appreciative of this line of conversation --
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] is looking a bit smug. --
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] shoots him a withering glare --
CXE: i suppose i should get going then.
CHG: You're leaving sso ssoon?
CPR: no waiT, come on. we never hang ouT in a group any more.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] looks down her nose at zen --
CPR: iIi promise To keep my dickish commenTs To my self.
CPR: iIi won'T even laugh iIi promise.
CXE: oh god, don't you start acting ridiculous too!
CPR: yeah you're righT. ThaT would never have happened.
CNA: and døn't førget i'll still be here if it døesn't wørk øut, yø. ;)
CPR: worTh a shoT Though.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] actually utters an audible "ugh" --
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] makes to link elbows with ailsca. --
CXE: you haven't given me the tour.
CHG: Oh, yess. I can do that.
CNA: yeah ailscy, yøu have tø shøw us arøund this maze øf mirrørs, yø.
CHG: You really want to ssee the mirrorss? They aren't very interessting.
CPR: sure They are. They leT you look aT your self.
CXE: yer kidding. they're sure to be more interesting then a load o' canyons.
CPR: over and over and over and over.
CXE: ....and he calls ME vain.
CPR: you know, iT's acTually a biT creepy.
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] rolls his eyes. --
CNA: døn't take everything sø literally, yø.
CNA: i just want tø see yøur place, ailscy.
CHG: If you want to ssee the mirrorss all you have to do iss look around. I'd sshow you the conssort village but we might causse a panic there. Sso it would have to be my place.
CNA: yø, that's perfect babe.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] is not aware of the experiments --
CHG: They noticed that whenever any of them follow me they don't come back. They were bound to grow wisse eventually.
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] blinks at her a couple times, a bit apalled. --
CNA: whøa, that's harsh, babe.
CPR: aren'T They supposed To you know... look up To you as some prophecised hero?
CXE: well to heal them she's got to know how they actually die.
CXE: it works, just in a more sinister manner than you pansies arr used to.
CHG: They were quite eager to help at firsst, yess. It wass very usseful.
CNA: i didn't say i didn't like it, yø. ;)
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] mutters under his breath "being compassionate doesn't make you a pansy..." --
CHG: Sso anyway, you wanted to ssee my place. Follow me then.
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] mumbles about sinister troll ladies being hot. --
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] follows ailsca briskly. --
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] follows them all, watching their merry band's reflection as they walk. --
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] looks troubled. --
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] leads the way to her hive, and shows them into her lab because that's obviously the most interesting place. It's mostly neat and organized, and contains about what you'd expect. There is also a row of beds along one wall, as well as a paralyzed consort and an immobile imp. --
CHG: I'm ssorry, I would clean thosse up but I'm using them right now.
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] examines the lab tables interestedly. --
CHG: Anyway, thiss iss my worksspace.
CNA: i like it, sweetheart!
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] glances around the room, trying not to look at the consort for too long. --
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation, [CXE,] however, goes to prod the consort like the dick she is. --
CHG: Thank you, I do my best to keep everything in order.
CHG: Why are you poking that?
CXE: just look at the horror in his eyes.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] snickers --
CNA: yøu'll have tø shøw me the results øf yøur experiments søme time, ailscy.
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] bites his lip and destracts himself with the shiney instruments. --
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] taps tufie on the shoulder. --
CNA: yøu døing økay, pal?
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] decides she's sick of poking the consort and goes to examine the imp. --
CHG: Actually, I have ssomething Zennar.
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] takes a bottle from the sshelf and handss it to him. --
CHG: ((Dammit I quirked))
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] takes the bottle with a questioning look. --
CPR: liTTle disTurbed. buT hey, goTTa do whaT you goTTa do, righT?
CHG: It'ss probably not anything you're all that interessted, but I developed a poisson from the ssilver nitrate in the mirrorss.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] glances up --
CNA: høt damn, that's awesøme, yø!
CXE: yer gonna have to tell art about that, he'd be interested.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] goes back to the imp --
CPR: you're making poison? iIi ThoughT you were Trying To figure ouT whaT was
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] trails off with an "eh, whatever." --
CHG: I told him a while ago. He ssaid he would come to pick up a ssample ssometime, but didn't sspecify when.
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] finishes examining the poison, and returns it to Ailsca. --
CHG: What did you think I wass doing? I do lotss of thingss.
CXE: hehehe, he probably already has.
CHG: I don't think sso, he ssaid he'd leave a thank you note, and I haven't found one.
CHG: You can keep that if you'd like, Zennar.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] leans against the wall. --
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] captchas the bottle. --
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] lets his curiosity get the best of him. He goes over to investigate the consort. He pokes it, makes a face and pokes a few more times. --
CPR: whaT'd you do To iT?
CXE: told it about you, i'm sure.
CXE: now it's frozen with disgust.
CHG: I injected it with poisson from one of the impss, that imp there actually. It'ss currently producing antibodiess which I can usse to create an antivenom.
CPR: ThaT's acTually preTTy cool.
CNA: that's brilliant, yø.
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] bites back a retort for Araxie. Not the place, not the place, not the place... --
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] glances between ailsca and zennar --
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] glances pointedly at tufian, hoping to get his opinion on the two --
CHG: Thank you. Jusst let me know if you need any, though I ssugesst not being bitten in the firsst place, of coursse.
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] glances back at Araxie, waggles his eyebrows. --
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] shrugs. --
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] gives zennar a thumbs up --
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] chuckles. --
CNA: alright, i better get back tø my øwn lab, yø.
CNA: the plants aren't gøing tø cure themselves.
CHG: Did you want me to come and take a look?
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] nods a bunch --
CXE: *come on zen come on*
CNA: i cøuld stick arøund a little lønger since yøu seem sø sad tø see me gø, raxy. ;)
CNA: *yøu can't cøntrøl the zen, yø*
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] stares very pointedly at ailsca --
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] shrugs Araxie's hints off. --
CXE: *they arrn't even hints you just need to try you moron!*
CNA: *my attempts are private, yø*
CNA: *besides i've gøt my eye øn øther trølls*
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] withdraws abruptly and unexpectedly from his romantic pursuits --
CNA: yø, løøks like it's time før me tø take my leave.
CNA: thanks før yøur høspitality, ailscy, babe.
CHG: Anytime. Jusst let me know if you need my help at all.
CHG: Will you find your way back to the portal alright?
CNA: yeah i'll be fine, yø.
CNA: yøu knøw i can handle myself. ;)
-- CURRENT naughtyAlchemist [CNA] departs. --
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] is confused --
CPR: whoa whaT jusT happened?
-- CURRENT psychosomaticRapscallion [CPR] was destracted by the consort and imp for that entire conversation. --
CHG: Zennar had to leave apparently.
CXE: ...i really need to keep better track o' what's going on.
CHG: What do you feel you need to keep better track of?
CHG: Alright, if you ssay so.
CXE: so what else is there to see?
CHG: There issn't really a lot. I'm ssorry my hive issn't very interessting. My planet as well.
CXE: it's good to see yer work!
CHG: Do you think I could ssee your land ssometime?
CHG: Then I will potentially look forward to it. I've realissed that I haven't actually left my own yet. I think I sshould probably do that at ssome point.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] glances at tufian --
CXE: i'm sure tuf wouldn't have a problem.
CPR: you could ToTally come To LoLaF!
CPR: There's sTuff all over The place There.
CPR: also loTs of less senTienT Things To expiramenT on...
CPR: whaT wiTh The whole jungle Thing.
CHG: Your land has both flora and fauna? I'll definitely find time to vissit then.
CPR: can we Try and noT poison any of my consorTs Though? They mighT be dumb and annoying as fuck buT iIi kinda like being Their hero...
CHG: Don't worry, I'll leave them alone.
CPR: Then come over any Time!
CXE ceased responding to memo.
CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] RIGHT NOW responded to memo.
CHG: Hello. Yess, I ssee that.
CHG: Sso what did you bring?
CSE: + I brought mostly guns, my taserkind gun, an' a few shorter range weapons. -
CHG: Excellent. I'm looking forward to sseeing what we can create.
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] takes out what he brought --
CSE: + So, what're you lookin' to alchemise? -
CHG: I ssimply want to try upgrading my current weapon, would you mind if we try everything?
CSE: + Nah, that's cool. -
CSE: + So, are we gettin' started? -
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] looks up from her portable computer. --
CHG: One ssecond, actually.
CHG: I'm expecting another guesst.
CSE: + Who's it gonna be? -
CHG: Araxie. Sshe offered to bring ssome thingss over for me.
CSE: + At least it ain't someone like Cas'. -
CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] RIGHT NOW responded to memo.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] arrives after a few more minutes, a large net of bound and gagged monkeys slung over a shoulder. --
CHG: There you are. Hello Araxie.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] drops the net gratefully. --
CSE: + *Woah, hey 'Raxo. -
CXE: alright, ten monkeys.
CHG: Thank you. That'ss a large net, you didn't have trouble?
CSE: + An' why exactly do you need these monkeys? -
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] raises an eyebrow at Ail'. --
CXE: actually, i offered to let her take a look.
CHG: Nothing in particular at the moment, other than curiosity, but it can't hurt. You already know how hard it is to obtain any of my own. If nothing elsse, we can tesst the ressults of todayss effortss on them.
CSE: + Damn, that's gonna be interestin'. -
CHG: Would you like to sstay, Araxie? We're going to be working on alchemizing new weaponss.
CSE: + I brought a ton o' mine over to test with Ail's scalpel. -
CHG: Then we sshould begin. What sshould we combine firsst?
CXE: *haha wow these monkeys are just going to sit there aren't they*
CSE: + Why not the simple stuff, how 'bout the pistol? -
CHG: *they're not going anywhere, why not?*
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] stands back to watch. --
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] picks up the pistol, then --
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] puts the codes for the scalpel and the pistol into the alchemiter. Out comes... the same pistol? --
CXE: that was anticlimatic.
CHG: We might as well try it. Could you line up a monkey for me Araxie?
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] reaches into the bag and retrieves a very horrified looking monkey. --
CHG: Hertzi, you're a better sshot. Here.
CSE: + Ail', are you wantin' to test it or would you rather me do the aimin' stuff? -
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] passes Hertzi the pistol. --
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] takes it, that answers the question. --
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] aims at the monkey, he's confident in his aim. He shoots, expecting it to just be a bullet that shoots the monkey, except it's a fucking scalpel that hits it in the chest. --
CHG: That'ss interessting.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] winces as the monkey starts to reak havoc on her ears. fins? shit, do seadwellers have like, different hearing? gdi hussie. --
CHG: I don't think I will have a usse for that. What'ss next?
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] puts it down --
CSE: + Okay, how 'bout the dagger then? -
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] picks up the dagger --
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] combines the scalpel and dagger to create what seems to be a regular scalpel with the handle of the dagger. --
CXE: that doesn't look particularly useful either.
CSE: + It kinda just looks like a fancier alternative. -
CHG: No it doessn't. I don't think we need to tesst this. On to the next thing then.
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] hands Ail' the tranq. --
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] combines the two. This creates what seems to be a regular scalpel. --
CHG: Hmm. I wass expecting ssomething from that. Yess, I think I sshould.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] produces another monkey. --
CSE: + Do I gotta hold the thin' still? -
CHG: That would be helpful, yess.
CXE: *she is holding it rather still already*
CSE: + Well, if you insist that's cool. -
CXE: you ken take notes for ailsca.
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] takes the new scalpel and makes an incision. However, instead of showing signs of pain, it stops struggling. --
CSE: + Yeah, that looks hella useful compared to the other stuff. -
CHG: Yess, I agree. I think we've found ssomething I can keep.
CHG: That'ss no reasson to stop, though. I would like to try your taser, Hertzi.
CSE: + Sure, we can do that. -
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] hands Ail' the taser. --
CXE: this is going to be interesting....
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] combines the two to produce an electric scalpel. It's pretty much a laser. --
CHG: Oh, I know what thiss iss.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] doesn't. --
CSE: + Some doctor thin', right? -
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] half does/ --
CHG: I'll sshow you. Can I have another monkey, pleasse?
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] stands a step away from the monkey to demonstrate the range, and adjusts the settings to their highest settings. She aims it at the monkey and pretty much just slices it's hand off. --
CHG: Notice how the wound iss cauterized while the insission iss being made. Thiss minimizess bleeding.
CSE: + That's also useful. -
CXE ceased responding to memo.
CHG: Yess it iss. I'm keeping thiss.
CHG: Oh, did Araxie leave?
CSE: + Yeah, it seems like it? -
CHG: Anyway, I think that sshould do it. And I sstill have nine monkeys, that'ss more than I wass expecting to be left with.
CHG: Thank you for helping me Hertzi.
CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] RIGHT NOW responded to memo.
CSE: + Always welcome, Ail'. -
CHG: Oh, you didn't leave. I'm not ssure why I thought that.
-- CURRENT healingGelsemium [CHG] passes Hertzi the scalpel gun. --
CHG: Here, I'm not ssure what it can be ussed for, but it sshouldn't go to wasste.
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] takes it --
CSE: + I'll see if I can find a use. -
CSE: + I think I'd find one better than you probably could, anyways. -
CHG: That'ss why I gave it to you.
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] curiously nudges the sack of monkeys with her foot. --
CXE: well, what arr you going to do with the rest o' these?
CHG: One of them I'll dissect for the ssake of ssimple curiossity. I'll find a usse for the resst of them, they won't go to wasste.
CXE: oh, it's okay if you waste them.
CHG: I would really rather not, even if you hadn't gone to the trouble of collecting them for me.
CXE: they're a bunch o' useless hot bags o' air...
CXE: whoops, bags o' hot air))
CHG: They aren't usseless, we've already found ussess for ssome of them.
CSE: + Testin' shit on an' dissectin'. -
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] shrugs. --
CHG: Did either of you want to usse the alchemiter while we're at it?
CXE: hertzi, how would you feel if i tried to make a saber with a built in gun in the handle?
CXE: ....hmm, i might wanna try and make it shoot my needles though....hmmm.
CSE: + If you need any help with that, I can probably provide it. Use what you want. -
CSE: + I've been plannin' on throwin' together my rifle an' my taser though, I wanna see if it can make anythin' goof. -
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] picks up the rifle an' the taser, an' does the alchemizing thing. --
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] creates something that looks p much the same as the rifle, except the front looks a bit different. Definitely doesn't shoot bullets. --
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] holds it up --
CSE: + Ail', do you mind if I test this out on one o' the monkeys? -
-- CURRENT xanthicExtripation [CXE] decides to wander about the lab. --
-- CURRENT superbElectromagnetism [CSE] shoots it, and it shoots fuckin' electricity. --
CSE: + Hell fuckin' yes. -
CXE: i guess i should just leave you to it then?
CXE: i guess she just makes that gunblade and leaves?))
CXE ceased responding to memo.
