Es 5

Last time we saw our group of variated beings, they were in the Yojimbo Agency. Yasmine had just had a small standoff with just a living legend, and now they were off to the small market of the place
Swords and armors abound! Everything of the best, as long as it's within the weapons of tradition. However, black market of 'unhonorable' weapons runs loose, a few of them can be seen dealing in the open, Aeons disguised with heavy clothes to make their identity unsure, that hide themselves the moment the party's eyes meet up with them
Yasmine herself, actually, is a bit busy dealing with one of those shady types over there
Erlinj picked up some arrows. But that's it. Freaking heavy armor.
RSL_4N has donned a light helmet - more of a headband, really.
[OOC] WorkWeazel: You know… I don't think namtar acually bought *anything*
RenaRaveneos walks around, taking this opprotunity to accurately judge the curancy in this area, and try to figure out what the different trade items are from different regions, to say, what each region produces, other regions wnat.
Komura got himself a shiny new Katana.
[OOC] Komura: Currency^
RSL_4N follows Rena, doing likewise after his purchase
Duff_McWhalen chills out, following Rena around to make sure she doesn't get brutally murdered. The usual, you know.
RenaRaveneos is fairly interested in the trade goods of each region.>.>
Rena finds out that, short of weaponry and healing items, and obviously general food items, there isn't much to be sold here
Rena finds out that most of the food, actually, is in the 'hands', or should I say paws, of those more bestial Aeons. Most weaponry is also in the hands of those of the Ifrit bloodline, but that one very large stall, almost a shop, run by a Golem has just the most looked for shop
The currency in the Agency is a kind of coin, silver-colored. But most of the trade here is in a gold coin, Gil
[OOC] WorkWeazel: Namtar is going to be on pretty heavy auto-pilot. Today is really fucking busy, much like the rest of the week has been. >_<
RSL_4N analyzes and records data on both types of coin - what they're made out of, how easy are they to forge, that kind of thing.
ANy other trade good obvious? Special Metals/Stones/Wood/etc. unique to different regions? Also, What's with the Golem's shop?
The Golem's shop has just a lot of gear of all kinds, only heavy armor and bladed weapons, though. Also the odd bow and arrow. However, the greatest amount of consumers gather in there. As for other trade goods being obvious, none at all, despite war gear and food, there doesn't seems to be any kind of trade
RenaRaveneos: "Seems like they only trade in food and finished goods here. Hrm, This…Ifrit Bloodline looks promising…"
Erlinj: "Mmm,"
The Ifrit is trading sword, almost exclusively katanas. He's currently bartering a lot with a Yojimbo
JayM: Of notice, is that Yasmine seems to have vanished
RenaRaveneos goes to inquiry from the ifrit, about the trading of raw materials, and where they come from, and who primarily makes the weapons.
The Ifrit looks at Rena oddly //"Good afternoon…" he says, crossing his massive arms. As you get close you can realize he is, indeed, quite hot. As in temperature. He wastes a couple of minutes just staring at Rena… "Materials are gotten in the Jaris Volcano. Metalworking is a tradition of my bloodline…"
Erlinj isn't as bothered by the heat. >.>
Duff_McWhalen would be bothered, but, hey, he's Duff McWhalen, a Man! Of the! Sea!
RSL_4N notices a rise in temperature, and makes sure not to get into his danger zone.
Komura is mostly just looking over the katanas he can't afford at said stall, after trading one of his old ones in for a better one.
Yamikyu: "I see, SO you have no need to import any materials from other lands?"
RenaRaveneos: "I see, SO you have no need to import any materials from other lands?"
Duff_McWhalen looks at that fine collection of pointy sharp things. >.>
[OOC] JayM: ARgh, people keep calling me off
Ifrit: "Yes, that is true"
RSL 4N: "Inquiry as to recycling of swords at end of lifespan: is volcanic heat used to reclaim materials?"
The Ifrit looks at RSL and frowns "Why would you be interested in that?"
RenaRaveneos: "I see, Ifrit like you, who sell the forged weapons, Do you live in your respective areas, and get sent shipments of weapons, or do you travel back and forth?"
RSL 4N: "Curiosity about ultimate source of materials. Even volcanos have a finite supply - or does your volcano draw metal from the rest of this planet?"
The Ifrit just frowns deeps at RSL, and turns to Rena, still with the frown "I'm a traveller, myself. Others have their own ways"
RenaRaveneos: "I see, Hrmm…"
Duff McWhalen: "Seems to me, your kind would have no need of these Yojimbo."
RSL 4N: "Logic not followed. Yojimbo desire bladed weapons. Ifrit manufacture bladed weapons. Yojimbo give value to Ifrit labors."
Ifrit: "They value our weapons, it is all that matters to us"
He is just ignoring RSL, and now glaring at Duff
Duff McWhalen: "Entities like you shouldn't be reduced to mere smiths, but if that is the course you like, then to each their own."
RenaRaveneos: "it's all about money."
Ifrit: "No money. Just the fact someone uses our weapons. I've have grown as a smith, and that is all I know how to do. I take pride in it, and in people using my work"
Ifrit: "And if you will excuse me…" he's quite angry "I have more customers"
Duff_McWhalen walks away. "All power flows from the blade of a sword, and the barrel of a gun. Those who can't defend themselves will be destroyed by those who seek to doom them."
RSL_4N does too, gently nudging Rena away if she does not go too. "Agreed. Also: having purpose superior to having material weath."
RenaRaveneos heads away. "What a lovely sentament, Not everyone has the heart to be a warrior."
JayM: //Well, where to now? Through the windows around you you can see the night has started to set
JayM: And your guide has disappeared
Komura shrugs and follows the rest of his party away from the booth, content with his new purchase.
RenaRaveneos: "Where did that girl leading us go?"
Erlinj: "Ssssshe dissssapeared quite sssome time ago."
RSL_4N looks around, searching for their guide.
JayM: Well, Awareness
RSL 4N rolled 1d100 and got 84 ( Total: 84 )
JayM: And tell me if you pass, I can't have so many screens open at once
Komura rolled 1d100 and got 49 ( Total: 49 )
[OOC] Komura: Pass by 15.
Kolitk rolled d100 and got 86 ( Total: 86 )
[OOC] RSL 4N: miss here
RenaRaveneos: "I see, We should head back to Exxan."
[OOC] Kolitk: hupe. ;lol
Komura notices she is actually still there just… Hidden, behind a pair of stalls, in a dark corner. She is talking with an Aeon half her size, cloaked in so much clothes you cannot ID it's nature. She's talking in whispers
Komura points over that way. //"Youse guys are blind, she's right over there, kupo."
RSL 4N: "Observation: guide wishes privacy. Suggest allowing."
RenaRaveneos walks over towards her.
RSL_4N puts a hand on Rena's shoulder and shakes his head.
JayM: //Well, now. Going to talk to her or just try to eavesdrop?
RSL_4N is actually trying to keep the party from doing either.
RenaRaveneos was just going to walk over and talk to her. She's wonder about where they should stay for the night.
JayM: Well, just wrestle off RSL or wait until she's done, what's going to take a couple more minutes
RenaRaveneos: "..>What's the big deal?"
Duff_McWhalen can wait :p
Yasmine eventually seems to sigh and… Accepts a very shiny obsidian-black katana from the individual. She sheathes it in a sheath in her back behind her cloak
Yasmine then turns back and eventually heads to where you all are //"I am sorry for disappearing" she clearly did not notice you guys saw her "I had some urgent business to deal with"
RSL_4N doesn't forcefully prevent anyone from approaching, if they really want.
RSL 4N: "Understood and apparent."
[OOC] RenaRaveneos: brb…
Yasmine: "I believe you are done here? Is there anywhere you would like to go now before the night has set? Or possibly after?"
RSL 4N: "Exxan assigned this group to find out about Yojimbo Agency. Inquiry as to whether facts gathered so far constitute sufficient data."
Yasmine raises an unseen eyebrow behind her mask "It is you who must decide that"
RSL 4N: "Suggestion: group return to Exxan and inquire as to what level of detail is desired. Basic knowledge of Yojimbo bloodline apparently obtained."
RenaRaveneos: "That is true."
Erlinj: "There isss nothing elsse I need to do here."
Komura shakes his head. "I don't see much of point in staying here."
[OOC] Komura: -of
RenaRaveneos: "I suppose we should head to out next destination then."
Duff McWhalen: "Well, then lets us go."
RSL_4N bows to Yasmine, in an imitation of some of the greetings he has observed here. "Your assistance was appreciated."
Yasmine looks at the windows "It is quite late, however. Do you have anywhere to spend the night?"
RenaRaveneos waves to her. "Thanks for seeing us around."
RenaRaveneos: "Exxan I think does…"
Yasmine: "Well, then good luck"
RSL_4N begins heading out.
Heading outside, the sun has just set, and the moon is starting to rise. There is Exxan, who is just waiting on you
Erlinj leads the way back.
RSL 4N: "Inquiry as to desired next destination."
Erlinj: "There iss a map inssside of Exxan. Pick any place."
Exxan: "Travelling in the nighttime?" he says, as you approach talking
RenaRaveneos: "…WHat about…The Magic Hive?"
Komura: "Magic Hive? What's that?"
Duff McWhalen: "A hive. That is magic. Obviously."
RenaRaveneos: "I remember seeing it was near here, I think…"
Komura rolls his eyes. "Besides the obvious, kupo."
Exxan: "The Magic Hive is the home of the sisterhood of the Magus Sisters… Well, now, i've been wanting an excuse to go over there for a good while."
RenaRaveneos: "oh?"
Erlinj rolls his eyes and holds back a groan while boarding aboard their noisy vechile.
Exxan makes an odd sound, akin to a chuckle "Oh, nothing important. But i'd love to share this information with you, Rena"
RenaRaveneos blinks. "Okay. Tell me about it."
Duff_McWhalen goes to raid the galley again. In case he missed some food before. >.>
RSL_4N listens attentively.
Komura goes to take a seat when he gets onboard.
Exxan: "Hum… I'll tell you when we reach there"
He says that with a playful voice
RenaRaveneos: "Alright."
RenaRaveneos takes a seat.
With that, Exxan lifts off, and sets off moving a lot slower than normal "Enjoy the ride, take a nap"
RenaRaveneos does indeed take a nap.
RSL 4N: "Acknowledged." The mecha finds a quiet corner to power down and translate his short-term memory to long-term storage in.
Erlinj will also take a nap, as to avoid listening to Exxan ramble on about things he cannot physically do. >_>
Duff_McWhalen eats. >.>
Exxan is sparing your sore ears from his bedside tales. He's just going to be silent during this whole travel. Eventually, morning comes by
Komura takes a nap as well.
Duff_McWhalen goes through the entire store of water on the ship too. >.>
Youcan see through his windows that around now it's a kind of tropical forest, and in the center a gigantic kind of beehive. What seems like woman in bug suits are busy flying around everywhere around it for reasons you cannot imagine right now. Exxan takes a good deal of care not to make an aerial accident as he lands in an empty patch of land
RenaRaveneos: "Wow…"
Duff finds out he has enough water for a pool here! And obvious Exxan will need to restock yesterday
RenaRaveneos: "What's with the outfits?"
RSL 4N: "This place named Magic Hive. Insectoid motif expected."
After you all have left. Exxan changes back to his humanoid form, now being no taller than Rena. His extra parts form up what looks like a tank-like thing. "That's what they are. The outfits are part of them"
RenaRaveneos: "True…I suppose…"
RenaRaveneos: "I see."
RenaRaveneos looks suprised. "Um, you are coming with us?"
RenaRaveneos: "Oh, befor ei forget, What is it you wnated to do here?
RSL_4N scans to confirm if these outfits really do seem to be a living part of the women.
Komura just shakes his head. This place just keeps getting wierder and wierder.
Exxan nods, and… He lacks a face to smirk with, he extends his hand to Rena "How about you accompany me as I meet a trio of friends?"
Duff_McWhalen stretches and clomps off/out of Exxan.
Erlinj shakes his head and pulls the brim of his hat lower over his eyes.
RSL 4N rolled 1d100 and got 94 ( Total: 94 )
RenaRaveneos takes his hand. "Oh, sure."
Duff McWhalen: "I don't think you want to Rena."
He starts to lead Rena towards one of the entries of the place, he looks back at you all for a moment "Feel free to explore any part of here, I swear I won't take more than a couple of hours"
RSL_4N walks with Rena and Exxan, if permitted.
RenaRaveneos: "…?" * she looks confusedly back at Duff but is lead off.
Duff McWhalen: "Unless you care to lose your virginity to it."
Erlinj: "…"
Komura blinks, but doesn't comment.
RenaRaveneos: "…I'm not a… wait…What does that have to do with…?"
Duff McWhalen: "What do you think he's going to do with his 'friends'?"
RenaRaveneos: "…I don't know, that's what I'm going to find out."
RSL 4N: "Translation error: 'virginity' not found in dictionary."
Exxan looks at Duff "What are you implying here, Duff?"
Erlinj: "He'sss implying what you are thinking."
Exxan: "Excuse-me, but i'm not on to do that on the first date"
Duff_McWhalen sits down. "I am implying nothing. Enjoy your visit."
RSL_4N looks at Exxan. "Explanation desired: what was Duff implying?"
RenaRaveneos: "A virgin is someone who has never had sex. Virginity is the quality of a virgin. I have no clue what going on here though, so maybe these words mean soemthing else…"
RenaRaveneos is um, lead off?
Exxan looks up "Oh, for the love of… You're not going to understand anytime soon, RSL" he looks back at Rena "Seems like we had a great spoiler for a rather enjoyful day"
[OOC] WorkWeazel: *Exxan hits that like the fist of a mechanized angry god.
Exxan is suprised that Rena still wants to go along… Well, so be it, he's taking her off to one of the side entrances of the place, letting the others do as they please
RSL 4N: "…'sex' - fragmentary entry found in archaic language database. Supposition: 'sex' is biological concept?"
RSL_4N is still following Exxan and Rena, if allowed.
Duff_McWhalen is going to spend the day lounging around here. It's hard to be a beached whale.
Exxan looks back at RSL "Machines can be so naive sometimes… I really don't have the heart to explain…"
RenaRaveneos glances at Exxan then at the Magus Sisters. . o O (Did Duff mena…Nah, That's impossible…)
RenaRaveneos: "I've not met many amchines myself."
Namtar just shrugs at Erlinj and waits, finding a convenient stone to sit on and sharpen his sword.
RSL 4N: "Ark line indicated significant infrequency of worlds within which machines became sentient."
Inside, it looks like just a giant beehive. The Magus Sisters Aeons around here just seem to be busy with eachother and pay absolutely no heed to you all
Erlinj shrugs as well, then looks to Komura. "Did you actually want to look around assss well?"
RSL 4N: "This unit has never met…whatever species Rena is, before. Confirmation requested: Rena is 'human'?"
However, a trio stops by as they fly overhead. The one in mantis clothes makes a quick swoop and lands right in front of Exxan, the chubby one in the bettle outfit lansd with a heavy thud hind her, the one in the bee outfit lands on Exxan's head "Hey, Kara, Anna and Dela"
Komura shakes his head and takes a seat, drawing his new blade out. "Nah, I'm fine. I need a better look at this blade anyhow, kupo."
The trio answer in unison "Hey!"
RenaRaveneos: "You friends?"
[OOC] RenaRaveneos: Your*
Erlinj nods, "I have no desssire to wander around, I do not believe Namtar doesss either… if you don't mind…"
Exxan nods just slightly, Dela balances in his head "Why, yes, they are. Seems like we have a crowd, how about a more enclosed space?"
Erlinj then plops down, readjusts his head, then proceeds to do a lot of nothing
The one with the mantis outfit, Kara, smirks "Don't you love crowds? Let's go over to our room, way too many ears to eavesdrop here" she says, lifting off with her transparent wings "Who is she, Exxan?"
Komura shrugs. "It's okay. Hmmm, this blade's got a more gentle kami inside."
Exxan turns on his smaller thruster jets in his feet, and picks up Rena "Rena"
RenaRaveneos nods and waves. "Hi."
The one in bettle outfit also takes off, but only after RSL has took off too.
Duff_McWhalen wasn't doing a lot of anything either. :p
RSL_4N flies after them.
[OOC] JayM: Oh, holey god… Did I ever manage to just nullify OVER HALF OF THE PARTY? Dude, i'm amazed
[OOC] Duff McWhalen: We didn't want to see Exxan having sex. What? :p
[OOC] Kolitk: lol. Srsly.
[OOC] JayM: I thought I was just going to split the party
[OOC] JayM: Not going to make you all sit and wait
[OOC] JayM: I seriously thought you guys were going off on your own
[OOC] Komura: We're lazy.
[OOC] Kolitk: Two of us have been here, the third doesn't care. And we'll let the robot wander on his own if he wants. :P
[OOC] Duff McWhalen: In my defense, I'm a whale. :p
[OOC] RenaRaveneos: I guess Namar and Erlinj know the MAgus Sister's reputation as being annoying?
[OOC] Kolitk: Heh :p
Kara leads you all through a veritable maze of tunnels, horizontally and vertically. Eventually she takes you to a rather large honeycomb. It actually had a door, and wall, and is set horizontally. Well, really, more of a honeycomb-shaped house. Inside, it is what looks a lot more like college sisterhood house, though currently only the six of you are in there
RSL_4N seems to perk up a bit as they fly. "Advanced civilization capable of making use of three dimensional architecture."
RenaRaveneos: "Interesting, Not at all what I was expecting."
Duff_McWhalen snores. Whale-like.
Dela moves off from Exxan's head to Rena's shoulders. She's light, light like an 8-year-old. Anna giggles and goes off to the… Kitchen, obvious, and Kara takes a seat. Exxan places Rena in the ground "I see Dela liked you"
RenaRaveneos waves to her. "Hey." she takes the momment to examine her carefully.
RSL_4N scans the sisters, now that he is in much closer range.
[OOC] RSL 4N: Another Awareness check?
JayM: //Aye
RenaRaveneos: "So, You 3 are sisters? Or is that just a title…?"
It's a bit hard since she's in your shoulders, she smiles at you upside down when you look up at her
RSL 4N rolled 1d100 and got 13 ( Total: 13 )
Kara: "Ah, yes, we're sibilings. I forgot to intruduce myself, i'm Kara, that one in your shoulders is my petite sister Dela and…"// she looks around "seems like Anna zoomed off to the kitchen already, no surpise she's that big"
RenaRaveneos: "Wow, You're all the same age?"
RSL 4N: "Inquiry as to whether triplets are common among Magus Sister line."
Erlinj: "Always."
[OOC] Kolitk: Er. Wait. Robot went with them. Nevermind. lol
[OOC] RSL 4N: Yeah. He's asking them.
[OOC] Duff McWhalen: /me strikes that line out
Kara shakes her head "No, no. We're triplets of egg placement, not egg hatching. I'm the eldest"
RSL 4N: "Egg placement is deliberate action. Inquiry as to whether trios of sisters are intentionally crafted."
RenaRaveneos nods. "Oh, that makes more sense"
Kara raises an eyebrow "I wouldn't know. From what I know it's not deliberate, though. A month after you become pregnant, you just have to place your eggs, you know?"
RenaRaveneos: "I noticed your blood is called Magus Sisters, are you all female?"
Rena can feel something shaking. It turns out to be Dela shaking her head so vigorously she's shaking all of herself
RSL 4N: "Inquiry as to status of males: in separate facilities, similar to Lakshmi line?"
Kara sighs… "They… Just don't live long. Most don't get past their twelve years. They are around, freely, just hard to see them"
RenaRaveneos is shoke up, and quite suprised. "Ah."
RSL 4N: "Inquiry as to average lifespan of females, to place twelve years in context."
Kara: "I'm twenty eight. Most live up to their seventies"
[OOC] JayM: As in, 70
RenaRaveneos: "Ah, so about the same life span as humans."
[OOC] RSL 4N: Not that RSL would know this, but if they've a roughly humanish lifespan, you know of course that makes all the females who get pregnant, pedophiles. ;)
[OOC] JayM: Noooot… Really… They're hiding an imporant fact here
Kara: "I see you're quite uninformed for a… Whichever bloodline are you from again?"
Kara: "Very hard to identify"
Exxan chuckles a bit here
RSL 4N: "…differences from machine reproductive cycle noted. Mecha not allowed to assist in creation of further mecha until primary education cycle complete."
By now, you can feel the faint smell from the kitchen, smells like sweet, and honey
RenaRaveneos: "I'm human…I have no clue what he is…"
RenaRaveneos is refering to RSL.
RSL 4N: "RSL is service mecha."
Kara raises an eyebrow "I was guessing… RSL is you name? You remember me of an Alexander, somehow… Odd… And you said human?" she look at Exxan "Now, broadening your horizons?"
RenaRaveneos nods, then looks from Exxan to Kara.
RSL 4N: "Full unit designation is R S L 4 N."
RSL 4N: "Mecha designs inspired primarily from Ark line, though Alexander counts among other influences."
Exxan chuckles "Stop that, you're a royal spoiler, aren't you?"
Kara shakes her head "And you, sir, is loosing your touch, 'royally'"
RenaRaveneos: "So, I never asked, How did you 3 meet Exxan?"
Kara laughs "Oh, well… We had to travel over to Silturn, and he took us over there"
Kara: "And you know, it was a long travel… We talk a bit, he talks a lot, we end up spending time together, these kinds of things"
RenaRaveneos nods. "I see, that makes sense." she looks to Exxan. "He's transporting me, RSL and our group around right now."
Kara laughs "You're the only girl in the team?"
Exxan: "Oh, hush"
RSL_4N is just getting more and more confused here.
RenaRaveneos nods. "Yes, actually…" she gives Exxan an odd look.
RSL 4N: "Existence of implications obvious. Content of implications unknown to this unit."
About now Anna shows up bringing six dishes, expertly balanced in her arms. It seems like some kind of meat with honey, for Rena. While neatly decorated with some sort of leaves and such, she brings batteries for RSL and Exxan, prepapred like fine dishes, but still batteries. For her and her sisters, some odd kind of honey goop… Actually, it seems a bit gross
Anna then jumps in her own couch, making the whole room shake a bit
RenaRaveneos takes it, then looks for a place to sit.
Kara: "Just one thing, if he ever tells you about his…" she holds back a laugh "Gimbal…" she starts laugning some more "Hah!"
[OOC] Duff McWhalen: Is that his 'special enhancement'?
[OOC] JayM: Ask Morgan, Elisha =P
[OOC] JayM: What Starscream (if i'm not wrong) collects
RenaRaveneos: "Gimbal…?"
Exxan: "Oh, shush you! A gimbal is a 3D movement aid!" he shakes his head "Geez, aren't people out ot pick on me today?"
Exxan: "Oh, drat. That three are still just sitting idly by my other parts, I thought they'd at least move"
RSL_4N samples the energy from the batteries, evaluating the careful blend of charge levels and voltages.
JayM: //It's actually what i'd call a gourmet dish. Odd how they'd have this kind of thing here of all places
Erlinj is, indeed, idling. Actually, no he isn't. He's sewing up patches in his oversized pouches.
RenaRaveneos tries the meat, just sitting down wherever. //"WHat about his Gimbal?"
There are many seats here, must of them beam bags
Kara: "Heh" she laughs a bit more "Just… Exxan… Why bring her here of all places?"
RenaRaveneos is sitting in one now, possible still with a small buggirl sitting on her.
Exxan: "I was supposed to show ferry them around. Seems like nobody's really willing to make tours, though. They decided here, I thought about dropping by for a visit…"
Kara raises an eyebrow "Pleasure before work? Alright, that's not really too much like you, usually you do both at once"
Exxan: "Well, what to say, I am doing it still"
RSL_4N nods, sipping the power. "Present group's first hand knowledge of Etherside lacking."
RenaRaveneos continues to eat, watching them talk.
RSL 4N: "Introduction to multiple Aeon lines desirable."
RSL 4N: "Magus Sisters third, after Lakshmi and Yojimbo."
About now, Erlinj, Namtar, Komura and Duff actually can see something odd… Up high in the sky is a Valefor, apparently carrying a woman in it's back
[OOC] Komura: Oh god no.
Kara was about to say something when Exxan stops her "They chose the places, not me"
Erlinj just idly picks up and arrow in one hand and continues sewing. Doo de doo.
Kara: "Not like you don't have one everywhere, eh?"
RenaRaveneos points to the dish Dela is eating. "Cna I try some?"
RSL 4N: "This unit desirous of visitation to Excellance Airstrip in near future."
Duff_McWhalen is t'oly snoozing.
The duo is flying towards the hive, the Aeons flying around are unintered in it, but you see a trio that actually starts to slowly follow it
Namtar narrows his eyes, and gives a slight nod to Erlinj before prodding Duff. "Wake up. Things may have become complicated."
Exxan: "Ungh… Hopefully we can go there without much trouble, next"
Komura watches the Valefor. "…didn't that Lakshmi get picked up by one of those birds?"
Kara: "So, you two are here to learn, I guess? How about you ask something, then?"
JayM: //Komura, she girl's red-haired. I actually think it might be the same one
RSL 4N: "Awaiting inquiry."
RenaRaveneos: "Afriad all your fans are going to crowds the landing strip and we won't be able to land. Oh, ALright. So, um, WHat is it you Magus sisters do here, primarily?"
Exxan: "More like enemies…"
[OOC] RSL 4N: Misread that - I thought they were asking if they could ask something. Scratch RSL's last line.
RenaRaveneos: "The Lakshimi were healers and scholars, the Yojimbo mercenaries. It seems like I learned the Ifrit are blacksmiths."
Kara: "Mostly? Just live our lives, really, like any other normal person"
Anna is cheerfully humming
Erlinj: "Yesss… I believe that isss indeed them."
Kara: "Ah, I see. Well, we're just normal, I suppose. Not everyone has a great purpose in this life"
Exxan suddenly goes very silent
It takes a while, but it seems like the duo is going towards the topmost part of the hive
Dela hands Rena her dish
RSL 4N: "All units have purpose, whether great or small. All units have same amount of time during each daily cycle."
Komura: "Uh, guys? Shouldn't we try to stop that bird somehow?"
RenaRaveneos tries a bit of the odd dish.
Duff_McWhalen is still asleep. :p
RSL 4N: "Inquiry as to typical tasks that occupy time for Magus Sisters."
The thing is… Like a goop, really. All you could do is, at most, suck it. However, it is just plain DELICIOUS but it is also so goddamn sugar-loaded that the first bite is… Enough for the rest of the year
RSL 4N: "Name implies occupation related to mana manipulation."
Erlinj: "Are those little wingsss powerful enough to fly? If so, feel free. It not, jussst watch for now."
Namtar kicks Duff in the ribs. //"Erlinj, can you reach them?"
Duff_McWhalen belches.
RenaRaveneos: "Wow, pretty good. Can I take some of this with me?"
Kara: "Well, usually we just hang by eachother, really. Mostly we actually just play around, everyone does their own thing, really. I spar every other day, Anna spends her days in the kitchen, Dela I got no idea, she just vanishes every once in a while"
Anna: "Of course! Here, let me cook some for yo"
RSL_4N analyzes the honey. "Permission to try sample?"
She quickly moves over to the kitchen, in greater glee
Erlinj shakes his head. "Not with One Hundrand percent accuracy. And I'd hate to have an arrow ssssomething I wasss not aiming for."
Komura shakes his head. "You kidding me? Best they can do is slow down a bad fall."
Kara: "Oh, you just didn't do that"
RenaRaveneos: "…?"
Dela suddenly pipses up and jumps off Rena's shoulders, she seems quite worried
Kara: "What is it, Dela?"
RenaRaveneos: "What's wrong?"
Namtar: "Blast. Then I guess we wait, for now."
[OOC] Duff McWhalen: <Dela> "I felt a disturbance in the force, as if a thousand whales suddenly belched out- and were silenced."
Erlinj: "I would alsso perfect not to appear… Hosstile in thisss place. You know assss well asss I how potent the Magusss' Sssisstersss magicsss are."
Remember that trio that was following them? They suddenly home into the Valefor. The mantis quickly brings it's blades to bear, the bettle stands behind just watching, the bee runs in with it's stinger attack
[OOC] Erlinj: -perfect +prefer
Dela: "Trouble…"
Dela's voice is quite weak
RSL_4N dabs his finger in the goop and feeds it into his disassembler unit, further analyzing it.
JayM: //RSL, almost pure sugar, with some enzymes
Kara quickly rushes towards Dela an grabs her in her arms //"Dela, not again. What is it this time?"
Namtar raises an eyebrow within his hood. "It may not be nessecary."
RSL 4N: "High energy content for organic food."
RenaRaveneos: "…? Do you need some help?"
You two can hear the sound of falling metal and Anna rushes from the kitchen to help Dela
Dela: "They…"
Komura watches the airborne battle. "Guess not."
Exxan: "They are here, and what are that dolts doing fighting in the open? Dammit…"
Suddenly, the parts that Exxan left behind seem to come to life, a cannon-like device pointing at the battle
RenaRaveneos: "…!?"
RSL 4N: "Inquiry as to whether assistance in combat desired."
RenaRaveneos: "Can some one explain what's happening to me?"
Exxan: "No, not time to get involved yet…"
Kara: "Dela has… A connection to her brother" she looks at Exxan "What is up?"
Erlinj flicks his eyes to the side, "…Damnit, Exxan. Learn to disssable all of yourssself when you leave it lying about."
Exxan: "Invaders outside, my AUX parts are getting ready to shoot"
Komura blinks. "…he can control both halves? Damn, that's useful."
RenaRaveneos: "What should I do?"
Namtar glances at the cannon. "It would appear he is having quite the time indeed within the hive."
Suddenly, Exxan's voice is heard by Erlinj, coming from the parts "Yes, I can. Just wait of them to finish, I may need to interfere"
Erlinj: "I don't think he actually controlsss this half fully, but yesss."
Erlinj blinks. "Or he recently got a few more upgradesss…."
Exxan: "And sadly, little Dela's here, I think that's enough to stop me"
The five are still busy fighting… Then, the mantis manages to grab the woman in a necklock, and the Valefor suddenly passes out, and they all start falling
RenaRaveneos sighs, she really wish trouble didn't follow them.
Exxan: "Nothing, don't worry… This shouldn't be happening so soon… They must have followed us…"
RenaRaveneos: "…WHo?"
Erlinj glances back at his compainions, "You don't sssay." Before getting to his feet quickly and heading off in the direction the Valefore was falling.
Exxan: "No one you should worry about, for now… We may have to speed up the schedule…"
RSL_4N walks over to the kitchen, cleaning up any mess that may have been left there, while waiting for the situation to resolve.
Namtar sheathes his sword and moves towards the falling bodies.
Komura gets up and follows, sheating the katana he was examining.
RenaRaveneos sighs and just waits.
When you reach there, however, the Valefor is passed out in the ground, and up there now the mantis is carrying the woman in her back. The other two seem powerless as her sister seems to have betrayed her… Then, however, they start going away once again
Dela: "Bro…"
Exxan: "Damn, whole day's been destroyed…" he looks up at Kara "Is Dela going to be alright?"
[OOC] Erlinj: wait, what?
[OOC] JayM: Hum… Whatconfused you?
[OOC] RenaRaveneos: The Lakshimi took over the Mantis SIster.
Kara: "Yes… Yes… She's strong but… No, she's just tired… Go head"
Exxan stands up "RSL, Rena… I'm sorry this visit has been so fast but… We better return"
[OOC] Erlinj: Lakshmi pwned all the Magus Sisters, or, what? I knwo I'm generally good at figuring out what you ment, but.
RenaRaveneos: "Alright."
Duff_McWhalen guesses he wakes up and mosies that way too. >.> What with being a walking plot device. :p
RSL 4N: "Acknowledged."
[OOC] JayM: Well, like this. The Lak was wrestling with the mantis
[OOC] RenaRaveneos: Lakshmi's valefor got pwned, so she took over the Mantis Magus Sister, who pwned the other 2.
[OOC] Erlinj: ah.
RSL_4N finishes cleaning up in the kitchen - packing up what was being cooked, if it's in a ready state to do so - then heads back out.
[OOC] JayM: Suddenly, however, the Valefor passes out for no reason, and the Mantis then starts carrying the lak. Thing is, the other two don't attack cuz it's their sister there
RenaRaveneos nods. "Alright."
[OOC] JayM: Then they escape
RenaRaveneos follows Exxan.
Erlinj knocks his arrow and fires it off at the Lakshmi, then. Delicious Take Aim. :P
Exxan takes up Rena in his arms and starts leading her outside
It is just barely in his range of precision. However, the mantis is the one who takes the blow, somehow. It hits in her left arm, but it doesn't even seems to feel it
RSL_4N holds up the container of honey. "Appreciation for your hospitality. Desire for future contact, should events allow."
RSL_4N then follows Exxan outside.
RenaRaveneos: "Yeha, thanks for inviting us over. Sorry this happened…"
Komura tsks. (( They in range for Blaster at all? >_> ))
The two are more worried about their younger sibiling than RSL "Don't worry, go do whatever you need to"
JayM: //Yes, they are
Erlinj: "…Hm."
[OOC] JayM: Rein?
Komura chants a few mystic words in Mogri before sending out a couple of globes at the Lakshmi and the Mantis. [Blaster]
[OOC] Komura: Darn descriptive text. >_>
Komura rolled 2d100 and got 14, 37 ( Total: 51 )
The spell flies quickly, and strikes them dead-on… Wait. Both spheres somehow on hit the mantis!
[OOC] Komura: I think that hits… >_>
JayM: And they're starting to get out of range
Komura rolled 1d8+40 and got 4 ( Total: 44 )
Komura rolled 2d100 and got 91, 9 ( Total: 100 )
Komura got a total of 144)
[OOC] Komura: 78,MEVA for Immobilize
The mantis… Is unnafected, at all
[OOC] WorkWeazel: Well they aren't going much of anywhere now that the mantis is immobilized.
JayM: What is odd, though, is that suddenly the Lak's legs seem to be hurt, by an attack that didn't hit her
[OOC] RSL 4N: If only RSL saw this, he'd know what that means.
Komura swears loudly in Mogri. //"That wasn't supposed to work that way."
About now, Exxan pops up from an entrance high up in the hive carrying Rena in his arms, RSL right behind
Duff McWhalen: "…"
Exxan: "No, it works precisely like it should…"
Namtar scowls.
Erlinj: "Just asss my arrow should have hit the Lakssshmi."
[OOC] Komura: Roll 1d100 for Learning, Duff. >_>
[OOC] Duff McWhalen: Oh yeah…
RSL_4N looks around, trying to see what is going on - given the relatively limited information he got inside the hive.
[OOC] Duff McWhalen: For the Blaster, right?
Exxan look looks at Erlinj "Think some… You should know what that means… It also means your adaptation period is over, forcefully… We're going back to the Cerulean, now // //
[OOC] Komura: Yeah.
[OOC] JayM: Yes
RSL 4N: "Inquiry as to source of disturbance."
Exxan heads over to his other parts, and they quickly turns back into his griant flier mode, that is, AFTER, he puts Rena down
[OOC] Duff McWhalen: please please work…
Duff McWhalen rolled 1d100: 98 [Total: 98 (High), Avg and got 98.00]
RenaRaveneos moves away so he can transform.
Erlinj clicks his tounge against the back of his teeth, before shruging and sliding the bow over his sholder. "I wasss getting bored of playing tour guide anywaysss."
[OOC] Duff McWhalen: >.<
[OOC] Komura: Wrong direction.
[OOC] JayM: Yes
RSL_4N looks around, looks at the magus sisters…is one of them a male?
Exxan: "All of you, hop on…"
[OOC] RSL 4N: To wit, either the one that got hijacked, or the two others of that trio.
RenaRaveneos: "…before I had a chance to talk the bahamut elder…"
JayM: //Not at all, RSL
RSL_4N boards.
Duff_McWhalen hops on. Or sorta waddle-hops.
RenaRaveneos boards as well.
Namtar brings the Valefor.
Erlinj climbs in.
[OOC] RSL 4N: Thought you said Dela's brother got involved in this.
Komura gets onboard.
[OOC] JayM: I did
[OOC] RSL 4N: He's not one of those three, then?
JayM: What is the logical guess, then?
Exxan lifts up after everyone is in… //"She won't like this the slightest…"
JayM: //And the screen fades
