  1. Aug 06 17:21:26 <Melons> Still red in the face after the lamest telekinetic battle in history, Melanie finds herself wandering all about the docks and town, trying to find...well multiple people would be acceptable...but at least one of them would be nice.
  2. Aug 06 17:44:55 * Mackenzie is found wandering about the shopping district, considering some more purchases before they leave the island. ...He's also hoping to find Jennifer, but not so much as to seek her actively.
  3. Aug 06 17:47:21 <Melons> Spying her quarry, Melanie moves in for the kill. And then backs out again...but at this point is worried she's going to draw more attention to the famous movie guy by looking like a timid, starstruck fan. So she...kind of starts just following him...slightly to his side...without saying anything.
  4. Aug 06 17:50:01 <Melons> 4d6+4 Obligatory stealth roll
  5. Aug 06 17:50:01 * Mackenzie continues about his business, not thinking anything of it~
  6. Aug 06 17:50:02 <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Obligatory stealth roll: 19 [4d6=2,6,4,3]
  7. Aug 06 17:50:30 <Melons> After a painfully long time of this, Melanie clears her throat.
  8. Aug 06 17:51:05 * Mackenzie is investigating and asking about the details of a Life Orb.
  9. Aug 06 17:52:32 <Melons> She graduates to forced wheezing.
  10. Aug 06 17:52:57 <Melons> Which in turn becomes real wheezing and an inhaler puff.
  11. Aug 06 17:54:44 * Mackenzie sets it down and looks at a shock collar, quickly becoming disgusted with the idea once he realizes what it is. He also passively wonders who is dying.
  12. Aug 06 17:55:21 <Melons> "Um...Mack..."
  13. Aug 06 17:57:56 * Mackenzie turns around, confused. Then his eyes settle on Melanie and he turns neutral. "Oh, it's you. Did you see where that dying Purugly went?"
  14. Aug 06 17:58:46 <Melons> She's going to have to just completely ignore that one to hold back from a face punch. "Can we talk?"
  15. Aug 06 17:59:46 <Mackenzie> "Are you trying to strangle supernatural forces for power again?"
  16. Aug 06 18:00:58 <Melons> Her face screws up briefly. Fortunately, rebooting Melons Explorer solves that. "...how good would you say you are at playing the part of a god?"
  17. Aug 06 18:01:59 <Mackenzie> "I played in Clash of the Legends."
  18. Aug 06 18:02:19 <Melons> "So...I should find a real actor then?"
  19. Aug 06 18:02:32 <Melons> "Wonder if Knox would be up to the task..." She looks away in thought.
  20. Aug 06 18:04:12 <Mackenzie> "Probably would be. Hard to say, if you won't let me know."
  21. Aug 06 18:04:42 <Melons> "Do you know who Kaane is?"
  22. Aug 06 18:05:55 <Mackenzie> "Not really."
  23. Aug 06 18:09:09 <Melons> "Short version: he's the big kahuna of the Wakino mythos." Seriously, what does that mean? "So, big important guy, blah blah, I'd like to speak with him. No killing or absorbing or anything. Well, I guess I don't know that he wouldn't kill me....anyways, I might need you to meet him in the morning. He's a bit of a heliophile too, likes the dawn and all that, so in the morning I'm climbing the mountain. If he doesn't appear, coul
  24. Aug 06 18:09:09 <Melons> d I ask you to...act as him? Wear some stuff I'll be providing?"
  25. Aug 06 18:13:58 <Mackenzie> Helioptile? Why is that the... Whatever. "Why act like him?"
  26. Aug 06 18:15:19 <Melons> "Oh um...no...big reason...I mean...it's...required...so he can..." Her voice falls to a mumble. Well, more of a mumble. "...possess your body."
  27. Aug 06 18:15:59 <Mackenzie> "Like a Mirai thing?"
  28. Aug 06 18:16:20 <Melons> "I think so. Dunno if it's different since she has a natural inclination. Although...you kind of do too..."
  29. Aug 06 18:19:01 <Mackenzie> "It's not going to do anything bad to me, is it? You sure you aren't going to try to kill or sacrifice me while I'm possessed to take his powers or something?"
  30. Aug 06 18:20:45 <Melons> "Please, I'm nowhere NEAR strong en- ...uh...I mean...killing you would actually sever the link. And probably not even affect h- ...that isn't helping either...from what Mirai's said, she doesn't remember what happens during it. I'm inclined to believe something pretty fucking awesome happens, since afterall you're letting a divine being use your body, but it's either removed from your mind or some other thing that prevents you
  31. Aug 06 18:20:45 <Melons> from saying what it was." Or she was just a lying b- ...I'm an asshole.
  32. Aug 06 18:23:24 <Mackenzie> "And he's definitely not an evil power-hog who will keep my body possessed in order to use my dream powers to spread his influence to other worlds and cause unthinkable havoc?"
  33. Aug 06 18:25:07 <Melons> "Oh come on, you're not that at-" Melanie lights up like a stoplight. "...his mythos is in a decaying state, he probably doesn't have the power for that. Also, the reason for me wanting to speak with him would benefit him as well anyways."
  34. Aug 06 18:27:29 <Mackenzie> "Alright, I'm game. Also your half-ability to control your inner monologue is adorable." I wonder if I should have said that out loud.
  35. Aug 06 18:28:43 <Melons> Melanie goes infrared: blushing so hard you can't even tell. Or some bullshit. She looks back up at him suddenly, eyes narrows and a slight frown. "Why are you agreeing?"
  36. Aug 06 18:29:11 <Melons> *narrowed
  37. Aug 06 18:30:32 <Mackenzie> "It sounds cool. Sure you might be double-crossing me into wearing a stupid outfit and then have Luna tape me doing embarassing things and post it all over the internet, but whatever."
  38. Aug 06 18:33:19 * Sisori is now known as Aori_Radidjiu
  39. Aug 06 18:33:33 <Melons> She goes quiet for a bit and looks away. "...you know...I do respect you, Mackenzie. I didn't really know how it was going to work out in the beginning since...well you're you, and we sucked collectively...but now I'm glad to have you." She smiles a bit, but still stares off to the side. "And besides, you can't help that you're a little bit of a moron."
  40. Aug 06 18:38:22 <Mackenzie> "Things would probably work better if we were anywhere near the same page more often. Knox figured that out a while ago and he's still just barely joined us."
  41. Aug 06 18:42:53 <Melons> Thumbs are twiddled for a time. We can't say whose. "...Mackenzie, I'm going to extend to you a boon I've not offered anyone else before." She looks at him with a bit of discomfort. "...I will not lie to you. If you ask a question, I will give the most factual answer I am capable of. You probably of course still won't like that I would lie to the other crewmates but...well I mean, we've a pirate, a little girl, and the kind of l
  42. Aug 06 18:42:53 <Melons> unatic that's harder to predict than I am. Oh, but I'll totally lie if we're in the presence of someone else that I don't want to know the truth. Or if it's really, really, really important that I lie even to you."
  43. Aug 06 18:54:07 <Mackenzie> "...Well, I was considering something as well. You need like, tribute and sacrifice and all that whatever now, right? I was thinking, if it fits in with your god qualities or whatever, if you could utilize me fighting with you as a form of tribute or something." His face is totally serious.
  44. Aug 06 18:55:32 <Melons> "You mean like...putting on a play? The sunlit hero fighting off the extradimensional monster?"
  45. Aug 06 18:56:19 <Mackenzie> "No, like, blood for the blood god."
  46. Aug 06 18:57:33 <Mackenzie> "Except not... like literally blood."
  47. Aug 06 18:58:43 <Melons> "...oh, uh, actually all kinds of stuff passes as tribute. It's not always blood and murder. In fact, for some gods that would repulse them. And given Kaane's domains..." Red light. "...well I'll have a list of possible actions to get the necessary ritual energy. So...we'll figure it out then."
  48. Aug 06 18:59:20 <Mackenzie> "I'm talking about tribute to you, dummy."
  49. Aug 06 19:00:29 <Melons> "...o-oh...n-not...um...I don't...really know if you can sacrifice things to me...yet...there isn't like a tutorial or anything. I know worship helps, but...w-wait, I don't think I'm a blood god..."
  50. Aug 06 19:03:08 <Mackenzie> He just gives you a deadpan stare.
  51. Aug 06 19:05:39 <Melons> Melanie finally sees past the actual logistics of godly sacrifice and all that fuckery to see the heart of what he was offering and her heart skips at least two beats oh god she's going to die. "....th-th-thank you...Mackenzie...."
  52. Aug 06 19:11:28 <Mackenzie> "It's just a repurposing of something I was already doing. It's not like I'm asking you out on a date or something."
  53. Aug 06 19:12:19 <Melons> "Noyoudon'trealizeit'ssomuchmore!" Woahwhendidshegetsoclose.
  54. Aug 06 19:13:49 <Mackenzie> "I don't... Are you okay?" Mackenzie begins to regret that he said anything.
  55. Aug 06 19:16:52 <Melons> She pulls back away with a weird smile and nods. "...if you don't have any other questions, then...well if I don't see you later today, then I'll see you bright and early!"
  56. Aug 06 19:18:23 <Mackenzie> "Yeah, uh... Later." Mack gives his 'I'm not creeped out' smile and begins to turn back to the shop.
  57. Aug 06 19:20:08 <Melons> Melanie ventures forth to locate her cousin, because going to the hot springs or gym this early would be much too easy, and disappears into the c- nope, still flanking the crowd.
  58. Aug 06 19:20:14 <Melons> </mini?>
  59. Aug 06 19:20:26 <Mackenzie> <never>
  60. Aug 06 19:20:57 <Melons> <How Are Our Minis Real If Our Eyes Aren't Real>
  61. Aug 06 19:23:26 <Mackenzie> </deep>
