LITTLE: -Little is indeed starting to sniff around. Knowing Rammie, she might have actually been prowling around following people-- there's no discounting it, anyways.-
RAMMIE: *M..maybe a little but she was leaving the ship forrr rrreasons of meeting a frrriend. So therrre she stands in a grrreen halfshirrrt with hangy frrringe and herrr usual blackpants and heels. Looking arrround, earrrs perrrked*
RAMMIE: ((Boy howdy quirks are a things
LITTLE: -THEY CERTAInLY ARE-
LITTLE: -She grins, though. She doesn't get the opportunity to pounce people all that often, since the whole... leg bending butt wiggle part of pouncing is far beyond her, but with the benefit of SURPRISE, she jumps straight on her back.- H3LO STR4NG3R
RAMMIE: *That does catch her off guard. There are more people to listen to, more sounds to filter, more scents to shift through so her frame tenses for a moment, taking a step forward with the impact* ..Oh! Yes.. *smiles a little* You got me.
LITTLE: you got GOT >;p
LITTLE: -she adjusts herself so that she's got a better grip on her back. Yep. She's hanging on here.- do you know th3 town round h3r3 >:?
RAMMIE: *Alright this is fine. Little is on her back which is okay. She just.... looks down at her device* No, but I have GPS.
LITTLE: th3 SC13NC3 >:o
LITTLE: 1 supos3 1 trust 1t 1n your h4nds
LITTLE: m1n3 br34ks CONST4NTLY
RAMMIE: Why does it always brrrreak? Do you drrrop it? *Uses it to guide them and starts walking*
LITTLE: so RUD3 th4t you would 4sum3 r1ght 4w4y
LITTLE: but y3s
LITTLE: y3s th4t 1s 3x4ctly wh4t h4p3ns
RAMMIE: Hehe. It was only a guess. Perrhaps you could invest in a shock rrresistant case?
LITTLE: n3xt 1nv3stm3nt 4FT3R sn4cks ok13
RAMMIE: Yes but if you had it with you now you could orrrdeerrr the food that comes to you.
LITTLE: >:p OR 1 could h4v3 my n1c3 god fr13nd c4ry m3 l1k3 th3 pr3ty 4nd cut3 st3d sh3 1s >;D
RAMMIE: *She doesn't really know what to say to that, it's teasing but also a compliment* ...Well... I guess.
RAMMIE: That's also.
RAMMIE: An option too.
RAMMIE: Between the two, possible, rrrroutes of action.
LITTLE: th3 pos1b1l1t34s 4r3 for r34l 3ndl3s >:o
LITTLE: 2 1s 1nf1n1ty th4ts m4th
RAMMIE: Two could be infinity actually. It's a part of infinity and also therrre arrre a few warrrp speed calculational theorrries that involve twos and otherrr prrrime numberrrs.
LITTLE: TH4NKS N3RD -she pets her cheek with a hand- 1f 1 3v3r DO w4nt 4 c4s3 m4yb3 1l just st34l som3 of th3 sh1ps old m1l1t4ry surplus junk >:o

RAMMIE: *Laughs a little, and is pet* Um, yes. That does worrrk. Nanocarrrbon is good forrr absorrrbing shock. Then you would only need a scrrreeen prrrotectorrr. *They have entered the tourist food zone*
RAMMIE: *Tons of different restaurants are on the streets*
LITTLE: -her head raises and she sniffs the air-
LITTLE: hold th4t thought >:o
RAMMIE: In my pocket orr my hands? (Hehe)

LITTLE: why must th3 god th1ngs b3 s1m1l4r to 34ch oth3r r4m13
RAMMIE: I don't know, that's just how things arrrre. But it also means you can have two good things.
RAMMIE: *walks into the bakery what up*
LITTLE: 1 H4V3 MON3Y 4ND 1NF1N1T3 HUNG3R -she announces from her back, yanking out a wad of bills from her pocket-
RAMMIE: *Oh that was a little loud, people looked at them and she's still carrying Little on her back*
RAMMIE: *Goes a little jade in the face* Um... hello.
LITTLE: -She probably moves to climb off of her, finally, grunting as she leans on her cane and slides them across the bar- H1 >:D
LITTLE: g1m3 th3 doubl3 chocol4t3 4nd g1v3 H3R wh4t3v3r sh3 w4nts
RAMMIE: *Just shuffles up behind Little, she didn't know she was paying. Clears her throat as the cashier looks at Little then takes the money. Wearing that customer service smile and chiming an "Of course!"*
RAMMIE: *Now she must choose.* I'll. *Looks over everything* Have the strawberry cheesecake cupcake. *gently points to the glass* Thank you.
LITTLE: god choi1c3 >:o
LITTLE: 1m gon4 n1bl3 som3
RAMMIE: Okay. That's fine, can I also have some of yourrrs?
RAMMIE: I mean I'm asking but I'll prrrobably get some.
RAMMIE: Anyway.
RAMMIE: *Cashier hands them the food AND the change. Actual change. Expensive tourist cupcakes*
LITTLE: -she looks at the few coins in her hand.-
LITTLE: -SIGH-
LITTLE: -she needs a JOB-
LITTLE: cr4p
RAMMIE: *Oh, she feels a little bad* I can buy lunch.

RAMMIE: *People, she smells nice please don't judge her* Oh? I wasn't awarrre that was a scent.
RAMMIE: But, sorrrry? I just didn't know cupcakes would cost so much.
LITTLE: y3 no on3 1s 4w4r3 but m3 4nyw4ys >:p

LITTLE: round H3R3 4nyw4ys
RAMMIE: *Follows her, holding their muffins. She wants to know what other things Little can smell but takes time to look around the area* Yes I suppose so.
RAMMIE: We've fallen into the tourrrist trrrap.
LITTLE: >x(
RAMMIE: So..... what otherrr kinds of things can you smell?

RAMMIE: *Her hand is hold. It's the hand hold. At first Rammie's hand is just kind of there but she slowly... holds back. Don't look at her, she's green* Hahaha... yes. I'll.

LITTLE: W3L Y34 -she seems to consider something hard, for a moment, but it's kinda early for cocktails. she wrinkles her nose at the menu and eventually settles on a ginger ale.-
RAMMIE: *Yay soda buddies, but here comes the other topic* Just, yourrr typical trrracking.
RAMMIE: I don't attack people. Obviously.

LITTLE: -WELL IT TURNS OUT LITTLE IS EXTREMELY ILL PREPARED-
LITTLE: CR4P
LITTLE: -She mumbles something loudly-- something that could best be interpreted as 'red curry,' totally covering for the fact that she spent MOST of the time trying to tease Rammie and very little of it deciding what to eat. Fortunately for her, red curry turns out to be a real thing.-

LITTLE: -starts to drink her ginger ale-

LITTLE: -still going-
RAMMIE: *She gets her face under control and moves the napkin. CLEARS THROAT* So... yes, um. We should.

RAMMIE: *Speaking of curry things, here comes the server with their bowls. Not a big bowl either. Just a decorative bowl with a barely-decent amount of curry with rice buried beneath the meat and sauce*
LITTLE: (w41t so th4ts wh4t th4t 1s)
LITTLE: -little was hopelessly unprepared-
RAMMIE: *can't help but to smile* I suppose today is a day forrr adventurrre?

RAMMIE: *Looks back down at her curry* To be fairrr... you alrrready did it. *picks up her fork and tries to get some rice with it, blowing the steam from it and eats*
RAMMIE: .......*It's definitely spicy and makes her eyes water a little* Its... good. *sniff*
LITTLE: WOW YOU R34LY D1D 1T
RAMMIE: *Nods, the water rolls down her cheeks. Oh no, she's not crying its just really spicy! sNIFF, reaches for the root beer, is there any left she's trying to hold face*

RAMMIE: It can be messy to figurrrre out, so.
RAMMIE: *Leans down and gives peck on the cheek*

RAMMIE: *Same, she looks to Little.* Yes, so... um. I had fun. And I know you said you did to.

RAMMIE: Hehe. *Oh hello, she just.... pats Little's shoulder with her free hand* Yes, I will do just that if you let me.
RAMMIE: *Concept: princess dress for Little. For the ironies of course. Naturally*
LITTLE: -she reaches around, squishing her cheeks with her hands.- ok13 but only c4us3 1m n1c3 >:3

LITTLE: 4 l1l
LITTLE: 1 m34n
LITTLE: 1t got W4Y obv1ous for 4 wh1l3
LITTLE: -she twirls so that she can be facing her instead of leaning on her to see her upside-down-backwards, which was getting a little bit awkward anyways.-
RAMMIE: *OH.. well yeah that is pretty embarrassing. She straightens up now that her face isn't squish and rubs at her cheek with her free hand* Didn't that, make things.
RAMMIE: Awkwarrrrrrd?
LITTLE: 1uno
LITTLE: 1 m34n for you prob4bly

RAMMIE: Yes. *She green but she can see the humor in this later while she perishes*
LITTLE: 1m gon4 b3 hon3st w1th you ok
LITTLE: 1 4m

LITTLE: ok13
RAMMIE: Okay. Then we will do this again. Soon.
LITTLE: r34l son
LITTLE: -she leans in-- and up-- to the best of her ability, to plant a kiss on her lips.-
RAMMIE: *Let's be honest if Little couldn't reach Rammie would stoop the rest of the way. She's gross and also giggling and considerably jade. Surprise Little, she's a giggler under that super cool front*
LITTLE: -THE RUSE!!!! IS GONE-
RAMMIE: *All these secrets that are out, and this time her lipstick does leave a little imprint. But it's probably not that bad. Just a lil jade*
LITTLE: -she's probably even proud of it- 4nd 1m st1l gon4 whop you
LITTLE: just 4 r3m1nd3r
RAMMIE: *snnrk, laughs* I hope so, well. Forrr the sparrr. Not the whooping. *Inclines her head towards the ship, still holding the hands, they're good hands*
LITTLE: oh
LITTLE: h3 h3 r1ght
LITTLE: l3ts go
LITTLE: -she eventually lets go ONE of those hands to begin to make her way up to the ship-
RAMMIE: *Yessssss, this is going to be the giddiest spar she's had in a while. Even more than when she got the drop on Durgah in the jungle*
LITTLE: -She's actually a little bit nervous, and she could see a little bit of that blush coming back-- but no, she had to FOCUS. focus on the FIGHT-
RAMMIE: *If she were a dirty fighter she would use that to her advantage but also she couldn't if she tried on purpose. Not yet. But she is more than happy to guide Little to her and Durgah's sparring area in the gym. Well it's a room but a padded room and smells like sweat. As all nice gym things*
LITTLE: ok13 so um
LITTLE: w3 do1ng th1st f1st1cufs or w34pons ? ? ?
RAMMIE: Which would you be morrrre comforrrtable with?
LITTLE: . . . w3l 1 usu4ly us3 th3 st1ck
LITTLE: but
LITTLE: 1 wouldnt m1nd g3t1ng clos3
RAMMIE: ...um.
RAMMIE: *Don't do this to her*
RAMMIE: Since, I mean. I won't be using my B.Rrr...arrmorrr. We can go hand to hand.
LITTLE: br4rm3r >:p
LITTLE: h3 h3 h3
LITTLE: ok13 l3t m3 just
LITTLE: g3t r34dy
LITTLE: -she hobbles off towards the locker rooms because a skirt-button down combo isn't the great for wrestling and she could maybe use a leg brace, too.-
RAMMIE: Take your time. Let me know if you need anything. *She should definitely use a leg brace. Rammie thinks she should also change her pants and maybe put on a sports bra. Luckily she carries an emergency armoir so she takes that to change into some more workout appropriate attire and remove her piercings*
LITTLE: -Little eventually comes out again, climbing up onto the pads to AWAIT THE CHALLENGER. Or maybe she was the challenger, herself? She can't really remember. She sniffs as she plants her hands on her hips, wearing a pair of bright red shorts and a matching t-shirt. Then, hastily, she seems to realize something, and leans her head over. She bites each shoulder and tears off her sleeves.-
LITTLE: -There. Now she looks TOUGH.-
RAMMIE: *Did she just hear fabric rip? That was definitely the sound of fabric tearing. Rammie exits and peeps at Little. her sleeves* .....
LITTLE: >:O!
LITTLE: -TOUGH STRONG FACIAL EXPRESSION-
RAMMIE: *She's watches those jagged, torn seams* You've prrrreparrred yourrrrself. *It's cute but also Little why*
LITTLE: 1M H3R3 TO TUSL3
LITTLE: NOT M4K3 FR13NDSH1P BR4C3L3TS
LITTLE: >:O!!!!
RAMMIE: (Hehe.) We can do that otherrr thing laterrr. *Steps out, just a blue sports bra and some black and blue shorts. Stands on the mat* I'm also herrrre forrr the tussling.
LITTLE: UM
LITTLE: OK ! ! !
LITTLE: -she's blushing again but WHO COULD POSSIBLY KNOW WHY-
LITTLE: ...
RAMMIE: *OH. That's a blush. She can't help but to smile*
LITTLE: -NO STOP THAT-
LITTLE: so 4r3 you r34dy should w3 touch glov3s
LITTLE: . 1 m34n w3 dont h4v3 glov3s but
LITTLE: you know
RAMMIE: *She can't HELP IT. Little it so cute* We can touch metaphorrrrical gloves and also make the noise.
LITTLE: god 1d l1k3 to m4k3 th3 no1s3
LITTLE: -touches... knuckles with her.-
LITTLE: D1NG D1NG
RAMMIE: *Gentle knuckle touch* Ding ding. Even though gloves don't ding. :P
LITTLE: hush
LITTLE: th4ts th3 b3l
LITTLE: ROUND ON3
LITTLE: HuP!
LITTLE: -she takes a stance and does a little jab, just to test her guard-
RAMMIE: *She's got a good guard, palm open to push the jab to the side and tries to grab Little's shoulder. She is a swift cat*
LITTLE: -little twists as soon as she feels her grip closing down on her shoulder-- using that arm to attempt to knock her off with a jab towards the side-
RAMMIE: *That jab does get her in the side so Rammie backs off a bit. The next time she moves in its a sharp strike to the inside of Little's arm with two of her knuckles hoping to get it good enough to numb some*
LITTLE: -aw SHIT. Little is not too used to this and it shows, happening too quick for her to really react in time. She feels a wave of pins and needles in her left arm, hissing through clenched teeth as she doubles back.-
RAMMIE: *The hiss has her looking up to Little's face , just to double check but she wasn't going to pull punches. Her eyes fully open and watching for Little's movements so when she backs up Rammie stays in pursuit trying to get her other arm*
LITTLE: -This time she has more time to get her guard up, even with the numbness that's settled in on her left side. The maneuver seemed to be a feint, however-- as Rammie moves to persue, little takes a swift step forward to slam her shoulder into her chest.-
RAMMIE: *OW, the tender chest meat. Rammie sucks in a hiss through her teeth but now that Little is closer to her Rammie tries to step between her legs and lock one of her arms with Little's*
LITTLE: -this is swiftly becoming unfavorable, and little's legs are kind of buckling a little bit.-
LITTLE: -She's really got to do... SOMETHING about that lock. Wrestling isn't really her forte, and she's got to at least restrain a LITTLE bit from fighting dirty, so no biting or pocket sand or any of the fun stuff. Elbows may be a LITTLE bit in the grey area, but that's plausible deniability-- it's a numb arm and she can't really articulate it all that well so she's gonna swing into it with all she's
LITTLE: got.-
RAMMIE: (Ack!)*Well what was going to be a gentler takedown is hastened a considerable amount by that swinging arm. The plan was to swing Little down onto per stomach but now they just. Kind of both are doing that*
LITTLE: -oh dear-
LITTLE: -that was. NOT QUITE the dramatic turn she planned, and she's just slightly winded as she slams onto the mat.-
RAMMIE: *She's gotta SAY, two chest blows are not favorable. It hurts and she's wheezing a little. Their limbs are awkwardly tangled*
RAMMIE: (The mat. Is nice.)
LITTLE: b31ng on th3 flor 1s h4p3n1ng
RAMMIE: *pulls her arm back and moves to lay on her side at least* This is wrrrestling.
RAMMIE: At least, 90% of it.

LITTLE: o y3
LITTLE: m4yb3
LITTLE: -SHE sits up a little, sniffing, just sorta. Watching here a minute.-
RAMMIE: *Why she sniff? Rammie sits up as well but stands and offers Little a hand* Catching something else interrresting? *Her nose knows things, Rammie is very curious about it*

LITTLE: dont br34k your b4ck or 4nyth1ng on my b3h4lf -speaking of she didn't really pack a sports bra, either. Most of her outfits are similar enough because many of the OTHER clothes she accumulate tend to get ripped open by her teeth for impulsive reasons, as demonstrated.-
RAMMIE: *Little please, Rammie is staring but she's juding and also kinda gay. She's going to bury Little in clothing. There is also a trashcan by the door.* It's no trrrouble. I mean, it's fun anyway. Also you. Need things.

LITTLE: -with little it's a longer to-do anyhow-- she's got a leg brace to get off and some gingerness in getting the pants off and THEN the little waddle over to the showers. But she's probably gonna make sure it's a cold shower anyways.-

TD: I think I can.
TD: In heels also.
AM: I think y[o]u ar3 dr3aming.

TD: Yourrr butt is a believable goal.
TD: Not that you have much of one but my aim is incrrredible.

FINN: -finn is about to leave for the day, but he sees rammie in the living room and looks at her with concern- rammie
FINN: are you okay
RAMMIE: I am. My hand isn't though. I've burrrned it prrretty badly.
RAMMIE: *approaches Finn and shows, it's a pretty nasty burn but nothing too severe*
FINN: -furrows his eyebrows- let me see
FINN: how did you burn it
RAMMIE: I was testing out an engine and underrrrestimated the rrradius of heat.
FINN: have you attempted to treat it at all yet
RAMMIE: Otherrr than rrrunning it underrr cool waterrr no.
RAMMIE: I've had minorrr burrrns beforrre but this one is feeling like a pain in the ass.
FINN: okay you did good by running it under cool water
FINN: instead of cold
FINN: here i can wrap a bandage around it so it doesn't get agitated
RAMMIE: Thanks. *she'll follow him so he can do his doctor thing*
RAMMIE: Tell me. Will I everrr play violin again?
FINN: -he leads her to a chair in the back next to a cabinet- you can sit because i'll do the wrapping
FINN: and yes
FINN: you will do everything with your hand again
RAMMIE: *swing and a miss comedy, its what she DO* That's good news. How've you been beforrre I rrrudely interrrupted yourrr shift?

FINN: -doesn't look very happy about the on fire comment. NOT FUNNY, RAMMIE. he starts to wrap her hand-
FINN: what's your next one
RAMMIE: *Her comedy is gold, why does no one appreciate it?* It's a small perrrsonal vessel forrr Little.
RAMMIE: Just if she everrr wants to explorrrre. She should be frrrree to do that.
FINN: -nods- that's nice of you
FINN: does she know
RAMMIE: She does, she jokingly talked about it and I told herrr it was verrry doable.
RAMMIE: *smiles a little* It's the larrrgest prrroject I've everrr done.
RAMMIE: Much less one I'll give to someone.
FINN: how long is it going to take
RAMMIE: At the pace I've been worrrking it should've been finished this week. I'm afrrraid I've been... a little lax with my worrk schedule.
RAMMIE: If I get back on the ball I'll have it finished..... next week.
RAMMIE: *Goal setting*
FINN: that's cool
FINN: pretty fast too
RAMMIE: I suppose so. I enjoy challenging myself. Something like this could be finished in a little overrr one thousand hours of worrrk.
RAMMIE: Rrroughly five to six weeks.

RAMMIE: Thank you, and good job on my hand. I'm glad to have caught you herrre.

RAMMIE: Yes I would apprrreciate it since I plan on doing things with it laterrr.
FINN: okay

FINN: -looks back at her for a moment- yeah go ahead
RAMMIE: *Stares back* ...Yes. Ah. *eyes flicker to the side* Do you need anything in herrrrre. Looked at. Perrchance? *Yeah that's. That's almost like coming around to socialize. Nice work*

RAMMIE: They'rrre rrratherrr plain.
RAMMIE: Unalterrred T-shirts.
RAMMIE: *makes a face*
FINN: are you talking about
FINN: the ones i wear
RAMMIE: Do you wearrr unalterrred T-shirrrts?
FINN: -he wears emil's, honestly-
FINN: what do you mean by unaltered
RAMMIE: Plain.
RAMMIE: With some. Halfass design.
FINN: i wear some with designs
FINN: or words
RAMMIE: Then prrrobably the ones you wearrr.
FINN: oh
RAMMIE: Besides the shirrrt is only one piece of a whole outfit.
RAMMIE: It can be saved if it's tied togetherrr with otherrr things.
FINN: like what
RAMMIE: Some nice matching accessorrries and shoes.
RAMMIE: *looks over him* What do you have on underrr therrre?
FINN: -blushes again-
FINN: an undershirt
RAMMIE: Let me see.
FINN: -flips up the bottom of his sweater to show her the white undershirt underneath-
RAMMIE: *frowns* Oh. Well.
RAMMIE: I suppose it's a base.
RAMMIE: Herrre. Let's get that sweaterrr off.
FINN: -quickly- no
FINN: -just holds onto the straps of his backpack tighter-
RAMMIE: *pauses, tilts head* If it makes you feel betterrr it's nothing I haven't seen beforrre.

FINN: no i don't care about that
RAMMIE: Body conscious?
FINN: no
RAMMIE: Well you'rrre not sweaty. I would've smelled that.
FINN: no i am not
RAMMIE: We could play guessing games all night dearrr.
FINN: i just don't want to
RAMMIE: Alrrright. That's fine too. Would you like to see some of yourrr options anyhow?
FINN: -he nods- yeah
FINN: i would
RAMMIE: *Smiles a little and nods. Decaptchas a fuckin dresser and flips through it. Takes out a green T-shirt with a few diagonal white stripes and a jungle green beanie* Something like this seems to be yourrr style.
FINN: -looks it over-
FINN: i could wear that
RAMMIE: Good. Do so with darrrk pants.
FINN: am i keeping that or just
FINN: looking at it
FINN: or borrowing it
RAMMIE: And don't sag them. In fact a belt would look nice.
RAMMIE: But you can keep these.
RAMMIE: *Hands over*
FINN: -takes them and looks at them-
FINN: i'll wear it
RAMMIE: Good. And I'll take my pain meds. Just let me know if you'd like anything else like that.
FINN: i would -finally gives her the bottle of pain medication- take these with food
RAMMIE: *takes those gently* Then one day I'll measurrre you prrroperly. *Please. She probably hsas his measurements already...but that would be creepy to admit*
FINN: okay
FINN: one day
RAMMIE: *nods* I'll see you laterrr then. On a much less awkwarrrd note.
FINN: sure
FINN: yeah
FINN: thanks
FINN: for the clothes
RAMMIE: Anytime. Which I mean and arrren't just saying.
FINN: -he nods- i'll remember that
RAMMIE: *She MEANS it. And just lets that sink in. Then leaves*
FINN: -bye rammie. sometimes he wishes he could be more spontaneous. but it isn't worth the risk.-

Hello Sirrrius. You’ve been quite elusive.
I know this is a bit out of the blue, but I was wonderrring... if yourrr ship needed any tuneups? I can take a look at it forrr you.
Just let me know. About that.
📱 (zuserk)
Zuserk
Hey. I’m not surrre if you’rrrre asleep. I can’t. If you arrre and it’s morrrning then good morrrning. If not and you’rrre available I would apprrrreciate the company. You seem to have me spoiled on that. Don’t feel bad if you miss this message by the way. I’ll be alrrright. Herrre. By myself. Wallowing in my crrrippling, self-inflicted loneliness.
Just kidding. About the last parrrt. You can still come overrr.
Send 📱 for a late night text from my muse.

BALDUR: -it's one of Those Days, when Baldur can't really make any excuses for staying in his room for 24 hours and has to venture out without cover of... Cover, over his head. He adjusts his glasses a bit, squinting anyways with the light around as be creeps through the halls with a camera in hand. Maybe he'll find something unusual today. something like the cockatrice disaster, except hopefully less frightening.-
RAMMIE: =Less frightening in a way but more frightening in another. She watches Baldur creep around and approaches him with some casually swift steps. Hello morsel= Hey Baldurrrrr.
BALDUR: O-O -flash goes off in her face as he turns quickly-
BALDUR: -she is probably gonna be added to the cryptid wall now-
BALDUR: o-o-o
BALDUR: i thought you were a mothman of some description
BALDUR: I apologize for the mistake
RAMMIE: =ALRIGHT. That was bright, which she's not a fan of. She blinks hard and rubs one eye, careful with her clawtips= It's fine.
RAMMIE: If I werrre a mothman you would have had ample chance to escape my clutches.
RAMMIE: Forrrtunately forrr us both, I'm not.
BALDUR: o-o mothman does not really have clutches
BALDUR: unless you prescribe to the theory that it is more avian in nature 0-0
BALDUR: but um
BALDUR: that is probably enough of talking about mothman
BALDUR: it is notoriously shy and I dont want to ruin my chances of catching a picture in case he also visits deep space o-o
RAMMIE: Of courrrrse.
RAMMIE: Instead tell me how you've been.
BALDUR: i have aligned my spirit to the power crystal known as white agate for the mystic powers it grants in seeing the unseen and perception of the physical world o-o
BALDUR: it is working well because you almost didnt sneak up on me ouo
RAMMIE: Arrrre you cerrrtain it counts if I almost didn't sneak up on you?
BALDUR: i can see from your perspective why it would not seem like it
BALDUR: but it seems like that is a matter of enhanced perception to-o
BALDUR: its all connected O-O
RAMMIE: =Smiles= I see.
RAMMIE: Would you like to put yourrrrr crrrrystals to a test?
RAMMIE: Perrrhaps a game of some sorrrrt.
BALRUR: o-o i am not very go-od at games
BALDUR: what kind were you thinking
RAMMIE: Nothing too complicated.
RAMMIE: A single game of hide and seek.
BALDUR: O-O
BALDUR: well i am very go-od at hide
RAMMIE: Then this should be fun.
RAMMIE: Feel frrrree to go anywherrre on the ship dearrr.
RAMMIE: I'll do my best to find you.
BALDUR: o-o -he slowly backs away- ok
BALDUR: you can count to a certain number starting um
BALDUR: whenever actually time is a myth
BALDUR: ok im going
BALDUR: -SCAMPERS AWAY-
BALDUR: -when it comes to hiding behind stuff he is very good and he quickly SCAMPERS into one of the closets, clambering up onto the shelves seemingly bonelessly and shifting a whole pile of towers to mostly obscure himself, one eye staring warily at the door-
RAMMIE: =She watches him go with a little smile and remains where she is, counting off in her head to,oh maybe thirty=
RAMMIE: =In that time she hummed to herself and pushed off the wall when she was finished counting. Where is his scent? Aside from all over the ship. But she's looking for the strongest, freshest one and walks down the hall. Heels clicking ominously probably=
BALDUR: O-O -curse his strong scent of incense and potpourri-
RAMMIE: =Sir, child please. She sniffs him on out. Stopping by the door and puts her clawtips on it before pushing open the closet= Hmmmm.
BALDUR: -Sinks back as the light enters the dark closet. OH DEAR.-
RAMMIE: =Steps inside, looking around the closet. Her hands tracing the shelves and skimming along the surfaces lightly=
RAMMIE: =Then she grabs the edge of one, sniffing up them and pulls herself above the level of another shelf, large eye staring in the sparcely lit closet= Hello.
BALDUR: O-O
BALDUR: -he remains kinda FROZEN STARING as she suddenly appears-
RAMMIE: =reaches in to poke him= Arrrre you alrrright dearrrr?
BALDUR: -SUDDEN JUMP as he is poked, a bunch of towels tumbling-
BALDUR: did you know that when your face is backlit like that you lo-ok kind of like the specter of death 0-0
BALDUR: o-o you are also
BALDUR: go-od at this
BALDUR: that is not necessarily a bad thing by the way
BALDUR: the death thing
BALDUR: sorry
RAMMIE: Oh.
RAMMIE: =blinks some and lowers herself down=
RAMMIE: I'll cerrrrtainly take that as a compliment.
BALDUR: -slooowly pools himself liquidly off the shelf as he falls to the ground again- o-of
RAMMIE: =watches him closely= It was a good hiding spot all in all. If I could make a suggestion I would attempt to neutrrrralize yourrrr odorrrr.
BALDUR: OnO
BALDUR: it is kind of soothing isnt it
RAMMIE: And attention catching, yes.
BALDUR: OXO
BALDUR: i guess so o-o
BALDUR: you must have a very developed sense of smell
RAMMIE: =shrugs= It's likely not as good as Durgah or Little's but I make due.
BALDUR: you may be kin of the wolf how do you feel about lunar cycles
RAMMIE: =Raises an eyebrow and grins= I don't think that's it. Lunarrrr cycles are alrrright howeverrr.
BALDUR: OuO I hope you are empowered by all mo-onlight if my theory is correct
BALDUR: the skies know so many secrets O-O
RAMMIE: I'm morrrre of a fan of sunlight.
RAMMIE: =Looks up= The sky? Arrre you surrre yourrrr not rrrreferrring to Zuserrrk. Who often dwells above us?
RAMMIE: He, too, knows many secrrrets.
BALDUR: o-o well those are different kinds
BALDUR: -he glances overhead as though to make sure zuserk isn't there-
BALDUR: they are more like the secrets we corporal shells carry on our temporary forms
BALDUR: they to-o are sacred in a way
BALDUR: the sun seems nice mostly from afar
BALDUR: when i do not have to be exposed to it oxo
RAMMIE: Not even brrriefly? RAMMIE: It is verrry nice.
BALDUR: i usually need a parasol o-o
BALDUR: i kind of burn
RAMMIE: Even with sun lotion?
BALDUR: -meek lil nod-
RAMMIE: =what a delicate little delectable marshmallow, still it was sad= That's unforrrrtunate.... hm
RAMMIE: Perrrhaps the virrrtual rrreality rrrroom is a good option.
BALDUR: o-o
BALDUR: maybe
BALDUR: i dont really know how it works but ruleus seems to work on it a lot
BALDUR: is it nice in there
RAMMIE: You should trrrry it. It doesn't beat the rrrrreal thing but it's close.
BALDUR: ouo
BALDUR: i may try it
BALDUR: um
BALDUR: preferably not by myself though
RAMMIE: Aw. You don't have to be alone thrrrough it.
RAMMIE: I wouldn't mind accompanying you.
BALDUR: i will bring you a crystal of your own for companionship purposes o-o
RAMMIE: ....I don't think that will be necessarrry dearrr.
BALDUR: well BALDUR: if youre sure BALDUR: but i have lots o-o
RAMMIE: If you insist. =pats his head and smiles at= I apprrrreciate the thought.
RAMMIE: =What a nice, soft marshmallow son=
BALDUR: OuO -at the headpats-
BALDUR: -HE IS FEELING POSITIVE VIBRATIONS-
RAMMIE: =He's so cute she could just eat him omg. Maybe even literally but definitely not that'd be WEIRD=
RAMMIE: Oh. Um, yes, we should likely get a move on frrrrom this dimly lit closet beforrrre people starrrrt talking.
BALDUR: o-o BALDUR: i dont know its kind of nice BALDUR: being dimly lit
RAMMIE: =Fake little gasp, hand on her chest= My, my. How bold of you.
RAMMIE: =Wags finger= Be mindful of what you utterrr in the darrrk my dearrr.
BALDUR: but
BALDUR: that is where i do most of my uttering O-O
RAMMIE: Baldurrr! I neverrr knew you forrr the type.
BALDUR: words of mystic power are very powerful when the witching hour strikes BALDUR: in total silence there is no corporeal distractions
BALDUR: just you BALDUR: and the realm of the spirits O-O
BALDUR: it is a true experience
RAMMIE: You'll have to tell me morrre about yourrr experrriences.
RAMMIE: I hope the spirrrits are kind to you.
BALDUR: i am assuming they are okay with me mostly o-o
BALDUR: i mean its kind of hard to tell when they dont use words
RAMMIE: If they did use worrrds I'm surrrre they would be nothing but affectionate and doting.
RAMMIE: Seeing how you enjoy the atmospherrrre I can leave you to yourrrr closet utterrrrances. =Picks lint from his hair only there's no lint just plays casually with his hair then makes her way out= See you soon dearrr. =Very soon.=
BALDUR: -for some reason his cheeks feel a little hot as she picks through his hair- oh
BALDUR: i am lo-oking forward to our next integration of thoughtwaves O-O
