  1. Aug 04 18:33:52 <Melons> After the complete and utter lack of relaxation at the hot springs, Melanie finds herself accompanied by a little reptilian monster as she awkwardly paces the distance between the boat and the hot springs, hoping to accidentally-no-plans-at-all-how-weird-is-this bump into Shyla. She's been walking back and forth for at least half an hour thus far.
  2. Aug 04 18:35:33 <Knox> Melons probably noticed at some point during her pacing that Knox was training intensely with Tenebrae on the deck of the ship, but then was gone after a few loops. Huh.
  3. Aug 04 18:39:25 <Lily_Blevins> Shyla, along with Pierce, both show up in a little while. They're both heading over to the boat and pass right by you, Shyla waving and Pierce giving you a bit of a glare. They're followed by a group of three identical blonde haired girls, wearing identical white dresses and black headphones http://safebooru.org/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=741039
  4. Aug 04 18:40:56 <Melons> OHGODWHYIWASAFRAIDITWASGOINGTOWORKOUTLIKETHIS! "H-H-HEY!" TOO LOUD. "...hey..." TOO QUIET. "Hey." Wait, they would have fucking heard the loud one, DAMNIT!
  5. Aug 04 18:42:09 <Lily_Blevins> Now that Shyla and Pierce are together, it's pretty obvious that they're holding hands. The two of them, and the triplets, all stop in front of you, with Shyla being the first one to talk. "Um, hi?"
  6. Aug 04 18:43:24 <Melons> "Um...my...uh...terms...of you staying...the apprentice thing...I uh...that was...real...so...I mean...you know...we should...actually meet for real or something?"
  7. Aug 04 18:44:27 <Lily_Blevins> Pierce's face starts to intensify, like he's about to shout at you, but Shyla turns around and plants a kiss on his cheek. "It's all right." She turns to you and walks over, letting go of Pierce's hand. "All right."
  8. Aug 04 18:45:45 <Melons> "...he's mad."
  9. Aug 04 18:46:31 <Lily_Blevins> The triplets speak out in unison. """He's always mad~"""
  10. Aug 04 18:47:38 <Melons> Melanie looks to the triplets briefly, panicing slightly with a double take. She hasn't had anything to drink yet today, this is bad, this sh- ohfuckrighttripletsokay.
  11. Aug 04 18:49:40 <Lily_Blevins> Pierce shuts his mouth and sticks his hands in his coat, walking off. The triplets walk up to you and all three of them leeean in and look you over, all of them asking questions. "Pierce said you're crazy, is it true?" "Are you an alien?" "What's your workout, I want to have a waist and legs and chest like yours!"
  12. Aug 04 18:51:15 <Lily_Blevins> Shyla steps in. "Could you be nosy somewhere else?" She waves them off. All three of them narrow their eyes at her. """Fiiiiine!""" And then all three stick their tongues out at her before walking off
  13. Aug 04 18:51:24 <Melons> "Wuh...um..." She points to each in turn, counting each one out on her fingers. "Mostly; well...like...not from space? Not physical spa- oh..."
  14. Aug 04 18:53:53 <Lily_Blevins> Shyla leans in after all three of them are out of earshot. "What IS your workout? And diet?"
  15. Aug 04 18:55:42 <Melons> "...I uh...fidget...and climb stuff...and sometimes when I'm alone I da-" TOOMUCH. "...I don't...really pay much attention to what I eat...I mostly do it to not die." Note to self: find out if Luna can cook. Otherwise, death might be in the cards. "...hey, can we start over like we've never met each other before? ...oh but include the part where you attacked us and feel guilty about it and want to make it up to me by being my di
  16. Aug 04 18:55:42 <Melons> sciple."
  17. Aug 04 18:56:43 <Lily_Blevins> "'Do it not to die'..." She sighs. "If only I was like that..."
  18. Aug 04 18:57:20 <Melons> "...what? It's not like you're fat or anything..."
  19. Aug 04 18:58:09 <Lily_Blevins> "...I guess not."
  20. Aug 04 18:58:48 <Melons> Mental note #2: The next person to bring up my breasts is getting punched in the eye.
  21. Aug 04 19:00:31 <Lily_Blevins> "So, um."
  22. Aug 04 19:01:10 <Lily_Blevins> She fidgets a little. "What does being a disciple even mean here? Do I have to fan you in your throne and feed you grapes? Become a carbon copy of you? do your dirty work for you?"
  23. Aug 04 19:04:34 <Melons> "What, no that's a minion. Or a henchman. Or a lackey. Miserable role that last one, why would you want a word that has 'lack' right in it for the people that answer to you...it's more like...uh...an assistant. Except for magic stuff. So you'll benefit from learning too. Also I'm not going to lie, like 90% of my decision came from your particular talent you've got in the noggin. Which I guess means if you consider reading people
  24. Aug 04 19:04:34 <Melons> 's thoughts to gain an advantage or for amusement dirty work then...technically yes."
  25. Aug 04 19:04:49 <Melons> "Oh, I guess I forgot servant, but that's even less useful..."
  26. Aug 04 19:11:01 <Lily_Blevins> "Well, I guess so. I don't usually read people's minds unless it's for a job or for getting a read on a client, overuse of mind reading leaves residue that the government can track."
  27. Aug 04 19:12:34 <Melons> "Fortunately you've got quite a bit of leeway with us. Wouldn't be hard to say we were looking for some pirate or another or some other world-saving bullshit. Now, first things first, and this is something I know normal people do: tell me about yourself."
  28. Aug 04 19:14:36 <Lily_Blevins> She looks off to the side a bit, taking a few breaths before starting. "I'm 21, had to drop out of college because I didn't have the money to keep going, been dating Pierce for over a year now, scored high in my classes in high school but not enough to get some really good scholarship, partially because I didn't want anyone to think I was cheating with my...
  29. Aug 04 19:14:46 <Lily_Blevins> mind reading so I held myself back a little..."
  30. Aug 04 19:15:58 <Lily_Blevins> "I was going to get a degree in psychology before I dropped out."
  31. Aug 04 19:17:13 <Lily_Blevins> "I was planning on publishing studies on children with psionic potential and how it affected them, mostly so that the public and government would be less strict on them."
  32. Aug 04 19:19:12 <Lily_Blevins> "I like reading, games of strategy- although I usually play with AIs so that I can't cheat-, um...intimate time with Pierce..." She blushes a bit. "Swimming, and fashion."
  33. Aug 04 19:19:13 <Melons> "Impressive! You managed to miss like all of the things that are actually about you! I mean that does sound cool and all, even if I think getting a degree in psychology is conceptually a load of crap as far as actually understanding the mind, but I meant more like...y'know...stuff about you...like that you like...not shit you did and/or intended to do."
  34. Aug 04 19:20:20 <Lily_Blevins> "Um...oh, yeah, I guess I should've gone straight ot the last part then."
  35. Aug 04 19:22:15 <Lily_Blevins> "And when I say fashion I mean dressing up, like um..." She pulls at the sleeve of her sorta-kimono. "This. My mother was Kantonese, and had several kimono and yukata and other dresses that i was always fond of and...oh I'm rambling. I'm from Unova, my dad was too."
  36. Aug 04 19:22:57 <Melons> "Don't worry." Melanie gives what she's confident is a normal people smile. "You still let me know plenty about you between the words! ...oh, that explains your problem with eating."
  37. Aug 04 19:23:47 <Lily_Blevins> "Yes, I...really worry about my clothes not fitting..."
  38. Aug 04 19:24:00 <Lily_Blevins> "A-and how Pierce thinks of me..."
  39. Aug 04 19:24:10 <Melons> "What, even though you could just check?"
  40. Aug 04 19:24:16 <Lily_Blevins> She's blushing pretty hard.
  41. Aug 04 19:25:18 <Lily_Blevins> "Oh, well, f-first off that's rude, and second off I can only do surface thoughts, not anything really deep, usually, not without some effort, and he's got thoughts all the time about other passing girls..."
  42. Aug 04 19:27:24 <Melons> Melanie puts a finger to her lip and squints. "You can direct surface thoughts with a question. Also I'm curious now: are you embarrassed that you should feel attached to him while thinking it's mostly just a schoolgirl crush since he's kind of letting the relationship stagnate, or are you just the shy librarian sort reacting normally?"
  43. Aug 04 19:29:35 <Lily_Blevins> "The...latter? I think? I mean, we uh...um..." She takes in a big breath and then lets it out. "We have s-" redder. "We go all over this country and have dates at new cool places all the time!"
  44. Aug 04 19:31:02 <Melons> "..." Hm. ". . ." Is she...? ". . ." Melanie's face screws up and she hugs Shyla as hard as possible. "SOMEONE WHO GETS IT!"
  45. Aug 04 19:32:18 <Lily_Blevins> She squirms a little at first, then hugs you back. "I...do?"
  46. Aug 04 19:33:32 <Melons> "YES! Don't you have things that make you happy but the very mention of them or the possibility of other people hearing them even when you know they know and they know you know they know makes it feel like you've got scarabs crawling under your skin?!"
  47. Aug 04 19:34:22 <Lily_Blevins> "...um...yes."
  48. Aug 04 19:36:54 <Melons> "...and you still think I'm batshit insane don't you."
  49. Aug 04 19:36:56 <Melons> 5d6+4 Pokerface
  50. Aug 04 19:36:58 <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Pokerface: 21 [5d6=6,1,3,6,1]
  51. Aug 04 19:37:19 <Vandaeron> Mackenzie meanders by, shirtless, sweaty, and a bit scuffed. He gives you a small passing wave. Also seems somewhat confused by you hugging in public, but he doesn't stop. Hey, if Kain can cross the streams, I can too!
  52. Aug 04 19:37:37 <Melons> OHGODDON'TFAILEMENOWPOKERFACE
  53. Aug 04 19:38:28 <Lily_Blevins> "Well, a little less...since you haven't threatened to take out my eyeballs again."
  54. Aug 04 19:38:49 <Melons> "I said we were starting over!"
  55. Aug 04 19:39:23 <Lily_Blevins> "I-I've tried to keep that into account!"
  56. Aug 04 19:40:52 <Melons> "Alright...so...I suppose you don't really know shit about the mythology at play here?"
  57. Aug 04 19:41:23 <Lily_Blevins> "I'd be lying if I said yes. A-also, how long are we going to hug?"
  58. Aug 04 19:42:09 <Melons> "But I asked it in the negative s- oh...um...is it making you uncomfortable f-for me to touch you?"
  59. Aug 04 19:43:03 <Lily_Blevins> "I'm okay with touch...it's just...you're squeezing me a little hard..."
  60. Aug 04 19:43:26 <Lily_Blevins> "Also it's easier to look you in the eye if we're not like this."
  61. Aug 04 19:43:48 <Melons> She pulls away in a heartbeat. "W-Why would you want to look me in the eye..."
  62. Aug 04 19:44:34 <Lily_Blevins> "B-because it's respectful?"
  63. Aug 04 19:44:54 <Lily_Blevins> "And easier to listen to you if I'm looking at your face."
  64. Aug 04 19:49:20 <Melons> "...fine...whatever. Alright...so...uh...mythology...uh...hm...filling you in completely would be better for time at sea, since you'll need something to do to keep you from just fucking Pierce every skull-boring minute of drudgery while we're island hopping...alright, so, important part right now: Kaane is like the big kahuna of the mythos." Note to self #3: find out what the fuck a kahuna is. "He's also supposedly roosting on t
  65. Aug 04 19:49:20 <Melons> he mountain. I'd like to talk to him, but I'm not sure if he'd just show himself. So instead I want to pull his spirit into someone here. Fortunately, his domains are fairly generic. Any halfway-heroic guy should do the trick. But it's not good enough on its own, we'll need ceremonial wear, masks, the whole shebang." Where the fuck am I getting these words?
  66. Aug 04 19:58:09 <Lily_Blevins> She blushes at you mentioning fucking pierce but she doesn't say anything until you finish. "So what do you need me for?"
  67. Aug 04 19:59:35 <Melons> "...uh...talking to people mostly...I uh...don't know where to find the stuff I need..."
  68. Aug 04 20:04:23 * Sisori (Revolution@F477F066.46A15B1D.D89482D8.IP) has joined
  69. Aug 04 20:06:20 <Lily_Blevins> "Um. So you need ceremonial wear and masks and all? Like what kinds?"
  70. Aug 04 20:07:33 <Melons> "He's supposedly represented by a Moltres, associated with procreation, creation, dawn, sun, and sky. That enough for you, or are you not the creative sort?"
  71. Aug 04 20:08:23 <Lily_Blevins> "Well, I have...a nice kimono with a cloud and sky pattern..."
  72. Aug 04 20:09:06 <Melons> "Like, yayclouds sky, or does it actually capture some part of dawn and the sun?"
  73. Aug 04 20:09:36 <Lily_Blevins> "It's...yayclouds...but dawn...hmmm..."
  74. Aug 04 20:09:48 <Lily_Blevins> "I have one kind of like a dawning sky too..."
  75. Aug 04 20:09:58 <Lily_Blevins> "But I don't know if kantonese traditional wear suffices..."
  76. Aug 04 20:11:40 <Melons> "Hm...there has been some cultural blending...it's also a better approach to indicate coming change as fa- yeah, that will probably work. So then...mostly just need a mask and...hey, is Pierce particularly heroic? Or creative? Or both? I'll skip the joke that he's procreative."
  77. Aug 04 20:12:42 <Lily_Blevins> "...h-he's my hero..."
  78. Aug 04 20:13:23 <Melons> Melanie reaches up to cheek piiiiiiinch. "You know what I mean. Kittens in trees and the like. I know he takes care of his sisters."
  79. Aug 04 20:13:31 <Melons> "But his competition is pretty fierce."
  80. Aug 04 20:14:05 <Lily_Blevins> "Well...I mean...he is a criminal..."
  81. Aug 04 20:14:14 <Melons> "So was Robin Hood."
  82. Aug 04 20:14:50 <Lily_Blevins> "Well. We never really had the money to give away to people. I think he would if he could, but he can't."
  83. Aug 04 20:17:45 <Melons> "Hm...might have to fall back on Frazier then...he might be...harder to convince...do you understand what you're looking for in a mask? If you're having trouble...oh, I can probably just make one. I'll just need like...basic arts and crafts stuff...mmm...feathers probably: red, yellow, or orange. Or preferably all three. Maybe a wick or seven and some wax..."
  84. Aug 04 20:19:02 <Lily_Blevins> "They probalby have the basics at a store here, and birds leave feathers all the time."
  85. Aug 04 20:20:21 <Melons> "Well...you know your assignment then! You've got until dawn of course. Well plus some time for me to make the mask, but odds are I'll be up because sleeping is hard when you're a mon- nothing. I'm going to go catch up with my cousin...so...uh...thanks."
  86. Aug 04 20:21:14 <Lily_Blevins> "Why do you want to pull Kaane in, anyway? could you explain that much?" And...well you feel your mind being read. "Monster?"
  87. Aug 04 20:22:35 <Melons> "What, have you thought I've been cosplaying?"
  88. Aug 04 20:24:01 <Lily_Blevins> "With the bone stuff? Well, I've worn some strange things too...and that Luna girl dresses weird too, I didn't think too much of it."
  89. Aug 04 20:24:43 <Melons> "...and I guess I'm dressed like a witchslut the rest of the time anyways...so, fair point. But yeah, long story short, I'm...kind of...a budding god? I guess?"
  90. Aug 04 20:30:30 <Lily_Blevins> "You're what."
  91. Aug 04 20:30:59 <Melons> "...oh...you missed the big sea battle didn't you."
  92. Aug 04 20:31:01 <Lily_Blevins> "Does that mean you can shapeshift or something? Is that why your body's the way it is? Was it really hard to do?"
  93. Aug 04 20:32:08 <Lily_Blevins> "What are you even the Goddess OF?"
  94. Aug 04 20:32:41 <Melons> "...I...only have the one other form...and can manipulate the bones in it...the uh...this was my original body...not the..." Okay, I DID say the next person would get the punching, it doesn't count if it's the same person twice. "...I...don't...know yet. That's what I'm trying to establish. If everything works right, you might get to see more tomorrow morning. Bright and early.""
  95. Aug 04 20:38:11 <Melons> "If there are no other questions...?"
  96. Aug 04 20:38:58 <Lily_Blevins> "Um, right. Feather gathering. I'll be off, then."
  97. Aug 04 20:41:53 <Melons> "Attagirl! I'll be...som- oh, phones exist, right, okay. OH, don't forget the tar!" Melanie wanders blindly off to find her cousin. If Shyla is wearing something flippable, it's totally getting TK flipped up briefly for Mel's curiosity/hazing of the apprentice.
  98. Aug 04 20:43:02 <Lily_Blevins> oh you're going there, huh? It flips up to reveal RED PANTSU, she squeals a bit and turns around and flips you back.
  99. Aug 04 20:43:09 <Lily_Blevins> RIGHT SHE CAN TK TOO
  100. Aug 04 20:44:51 <Melons> Tramp stamp evarwar, all over the whatever generic underwear. FUCKRIGHTYOUCANBEMORETHANONETYPEOFPSYCHICATONCE. Completely red in the face, Melanie still manages to grin in amusement.
  101. Aug 04 20:45:38 <Melons> Note to Self #4? 4 sounds right: with all the fucking jumping around I do, invest in tights or something. </mini>
