Aside 25.1: Sharyx Sillytimes

Aug 03 22:45:13 <~zoofman>	We will say this is Sunday, the 9th, after Saryx has had some time to sleep off all the craziness of yesterday.
Aug 03 22:47:57 <~zoofman>	Most the ships are still around, though Thomas made his departure yesterday.  There was some confusion among a few folks about that last night and this morning, and Gigi looked pretty ticked off when you saw her earlier today (She was simply sitting around over on their ship looking moody), but all things considered quite a few people just think a riot broke out yesterday and that's about it.
Aug 03 22:55:14 <Saryx>	Seeing Gigi like that, Saryx is a bit concerned, but he isn't all too familiar with her; best not to bother her for now. And he's got another funloving butthead to bother for now~ He proceeds over to the Thundercocks' boat, greeting the giant with a resounding "Hey there, Shawyun~" once he finds him.
Aug 03 22:57:01 <~zoofman>	Shawyun's sitting in his room on the ship, looking over a whiteboard with a rather complicated web, or...chart, drawn on it.  "Yup, it's ruined." He nods.
Aug 03 22:57:41 <Saryx>	"What's ruined?" is the instinctive response.
Aug 03 22:58:21 <Saryx>	Saryx can't help but draw near to get a closer look at what Shawyun's got chalked up there.
Aug 03 22:58:49 <~zoofman>	"My masterpiece!  Granted, I didn't really do anything to pull the strings behind the scenes all that much - but this latest wrench in it...I dunno how to possibly fix it."
Aug 03 22:59:12 <~zoofman>	It's a...well, Saryx might recognize what it is.  A relationship chart.
Aug 03 23:01:55 <Saryx>	Saryx is squinting so hard right now. While he might be incredulous of the idea, curiosity still can be heard in his voice. "... You made yourself a shipping chart, Shawyun?"
Aug 03 23:02:11 <~zoofman>	"You bet your fucking ass I did."
Aug 03 23:02:11 »»	DMovoi is now known as Domovoi
Aug 03 23:02:19 »»	You are now known as Shawyun
Aug 03 23:03:33 <~Shawyun>	"I mean, EVERYONE knew Ase was gonna be a thing and I made this around Genevyun in the first place, but Friday totally broke it."
Aug 03 23:04:17 <~Shawyun>	"I can't possibly fix the lines cause of Robby! Lessssbiaaaans!"
Aug 03 23:07:10 <Saryx>	". . ." Saryx is lost a second on these names. Genevyun he gets at first, but he can't help but ask about the last one. ". . . Robby?" Saryx is shaking his head so hard. "Shawyun, if you're gonna be giving your pairs names like that, they can't be any vague like that!"
Aug 03 23:09:07 <~Shawyun>	"What's NOT to get?  Look, one can only do so much about their OTP's being disrupted but at least they should have the common courtesy to not completely break the chart's organization over their knees.  I shoulda known she was an evil chart breaking lesbian and put her by the other questionable lesbians."
Aug 03 23:09:53 <~Shawyun>	"Though Sarice was sorta weird too.  Didn't know you had a thing for free loading stowaway bug girls but that's cool too if it's what floats your boat."
Aug 03 23:10:39 <Saryx>	Okay, now Shawyun's terrible namings are just bugging the shit out of Saryx.
Aug 03 23:12:15 <~Shawyun>	"Thomas being POPULAR all of a sudden is just totally ruining things too.  My OTP involving a certain space pirate performer is just getting even more unlikely by the second.  Ignorning the fact she's an evil lesbian."
Aug 03 23:16:24 <Saryx>	"That's really not . . ." He starts to comment on the awkward epithet he gave Alice and the vitriolic lesbian hatred, but stops himself from getting distracted. "Oh, never mind that. Lemme just get a closer look at this thing, Shawyun! Maybe I can fix this thing up some. I got some experience with this kind of thing~"
Aug 03 23:17:48 <~Shawyun>	Shawyun grumbles about fat chances as you pick up one of the dry erase markers and take a closer look.
Aug 03 23:21:09 <~Shawyun>	If Saryx is even half as good as his player is at this, it's very doable.  You notice he actually imagined you liked Anna, and he has a bunch of speculative lines pointing at Thomas.  He's got some rather new ones with ???'s between 'Afro dude and Chichi,' 'Biggy Lils and Bastard.'
Aug 03 23:21:25 <~Shawyun>	And yes he really did have a section for SUSPECTED LESBIANS
Aug 03 23:24:14 <~Shawyun>	He's also recently added a bunch of names for folks he doesn't know but learned of yesterday, and has a note for needing to think of names for the others
Aug 03 23:29:20 <Saryx>	He's a hardcore animu fan; of course he can into shipping charts. First things first. ". . . You actually suspected I was into Anna? I . . . Well, it's not like I don't think it's possible, but... It's not like I've ever hung out with her out in public or anything... Where'd you get that one from?" Followed by an "... Oh, that's Robby!" when he sees Rosetta linked to Gabby.
Aug 03 23:29:20 <Saryx>	". . . And that's what you're calling Chase and Ammy together?!?" He instantly adds to the bottom of the note 'And Make Better Names in General.'
Aug 03 23:29:49 <~Shawyun>	"What's wrong with the names I got?"
Aug 03 23:29:59 <~Shawyun>	"She likes snow, you came from a place with a lot of snow, makes sense."
Aug 03 23:34:19 <Saryx>	"But serious, I thiiink we can at least organize this a whole lot better, Shawyun. With Anna, it's, like... Well, it's not that I don't think she's any cute, but she just doesn't have any confidence in herself. And your names are real vague, and don't go off the tongue too well. Like, Genevyun sounds like... Like... Like a train grazing a chalkboard as it runs past!"
Aug 03 23:35:05 <~Shawyun>	He gaaasps
Aug 03 23:35:10 <~Shawyun>	"You take that back right now sir."
Aug 03 23:38:53 <~Shawyun>	"What's the big issue with the confidence thing though? Not like I'm a GURU on such things.  But yes this innocent girl love development has foiled my speculation something foul."
Aug 03 23:39:43 <~Shawyun>	"I mean the only part that actually bugs me is the fact I got no idea what Thomas is thinking."
Aug 03 23:40:05 <Saryx>	". . . Okay, that was a bit harsh. I'm sorry if I went too far comparing the name to that, Shawyun... But I still think you can do better." And now's the part where Bothy shamelessly pushes his own names :D "Like... What about Shawnevieve? Or maybe even... You know that saying 'joie de vivre?' (OOC note just in case: the r's silent in 'vivre') The joy of living? Maybe something
Aug 03 23:40:06 <Saryx>	along that lines of 'Shaw de Vieve!'"
Aug 03 23:40:34 <Saryx>	"What are you thinking for Thomas, anyways?"
Aug 03 23:41:00 <~Shawyun>	Thomas rubs his chin.  "It's...pretentious. I like it though."
Aug 03 23:41:03 <Saryx>	(... Err...)
Aug 03 23:41:35 <Saryx>	(Fixing that to statement form.) "Lemme doublecheck what you're thinking with Thomas anyways..."
Aug 03 23:42:06 <~Shawyun>	"I really don't know.  I can tell he's really hung up over stuff, but that Gigi girl was practically glued to him all night and nothing's come of it."
Aug 03 23:43:34 <~Shawyun>	He HAD a line from Chione, and has one from Gigi, and one from Rosetta.
Aug 03 23:43:43 <~Shawyun>	er, had one from Roestta.
Aug 03 23:44:52 <~Shawyun>	"Not to mention Thomas bailed right after that awkward huggy kissy moment at that light tower with stowaway girl being all glowstick on us."
Aug 03 23:45:59 <Saryx>	"Gigi wasn't looking all too happy before when I saw her on my way over here. Just sitting on the deck of the Fifth Element and being all grumpy. ... Considering what I saw her do to Garcia when she was in a good mood I wouldn't do it right this minute, but maybe you can just ask her about Thomas?"
Aug 03 23:47:51 <~Shawyun>	He stares at you. "Do YOU want to talk to her?  I've seen her suplex a guy that has like fity pounds on ME.  Shit is suicide man."
Aug 03 23:48:01 <~Shawyun>	"...Which might be what alarms Thomas," he hrrm hrrrms.
Aug 03 23:49:00 <Saryx>	"I was thinking about hopping over to their boat and asking what was wrong on my way here, but she seemed in a real bad mood compared to all the other times I'd seen her."
Aug 03 23:49:18 <~Shawyun>	He puts a hand on your shoulder. "You are a braver man than most."
Aug 03 23:50:07 <Saryx>	"She seems pretty carefree and goofy usually, so I figure something's really gotta be bothering her. And I really don't want to go over there right this minute. Least, not without some sort of protection to fall back on."
Aug 03 23:50:47 <~Shawyun>	"...I wonder if that eyepatch chick has something to do with it.  This might call for snatching one of those year books again.  They are like, filled with dark ancient secrets."
Aug 03 23:51:09 <~Shawyun>	"And I mean...I guess we -could-.  Can't be worse than what that Valdis chick did to Dahlia."
Aug 03 23:53:01 <~Shawyun>	Come to think of it, Saryx, when the first hangover happened, where Thomas and Dahlia made out, that locket he had DID have Trice with some person who was obviously related to Dahlia.
Aug 03 23:56:58 <Saryx>	". . . Valdis did what now?!?" Considering Valdis is an E4 member and Dahlia is... Well, not, Saryx is pretty 'Oh God what' cringing at the thought of that pain afflicted on her. "And you want to swipe Thomas' yearbook again?!? ... Well, he and Beatrice do have a whole lot of history with each other. Buuut I didn't get the impression she was interested in Thomas any."
Aug 03 23:57:47 <~Shawyun>	"I don't care whose spoink SHE wants to spring, just what the heck Thomas is thinking."
Aug 03 23:58:12 <~Shawyun>	"Doesn't gotta be HIS, I guess.  I mean that Jerome or whateverhisname was or hers would work too."
Aug 03 23:58:30 <~Shawyun>	"...Didn't you hear about it last night?  Two had a cat fight.  Sorta."
Aug 03 23:58:31 <Saryx>	"That's an awful weird comment to make when you're standing right next to a giant shipping chart of your own design," he jokingly comments.
Aug 03 23:58:59 <~Shawyun>	"What's weird about spoink springing?"
Aug 03 23:59:15 <~Shawyun>	"Do you have the Spoink, Saryx?"
Aug 04 00:02:02 <Saryx>	"Not spoink springing on its own, Shawyun. That you just said you don't care about Spoinks being sprung when that's a big part of shipping charts, speculating whose springing whose Spoinks! Maybe not the most important part, but that  comes up! ... Uuunless they're lesbians, I guess... Didn't hear about any fight myself, either, though."
Aug 04 00:02:29 <Saryx>	comes up a whole lot ** (Also sorry for boldtext failures.)
Aug 04 00:03:32 <~Shawyun>	"Lesbians ruin all the fun." He states it as a fact.  "Look point is another infiltration might be in order.  Only there's now more potential targets and less dangerous locals.  I think.  I sure hope that damned double demon sataonmonster Thomas has isn't the norm for them."
Aug 04 00:04:11 <~Shawyun>	"...Or we could, just ask Gigi.  And hope she doesn't crush us."
Aug 04 00:04:22 <~Shawyun>	"And yeah Dahlia looks like a pirate with an eye that black."
Aug 04 00:05:34 <Saryx>	Saryx defensively flares up at the 'hate Spoink' comment, as it's supposed to be. "I do not hate Spoinking!" And tries to continue from there, but... Just flails about miserably and awkwardly before giving up on trying to defend himself further and sparing himself further embarassment.
Aug 04 00:06:22 <~Shawyun>	"Woah.  You're really passionate about the sproink huh."
Aug 04 00:12:38 <Saryx>	Saryx was attempting to regain composure, but Shawyun's last comment just causes him to completely go full retard. "Am not! I don't even know what Springing the fucking Spoink's actually like! I mean, it's not like I haven't but I was so hammered I don't remember what it was even like and the whole rest of a night's a blur and I don't even know whose panties were
Aug 04 00:12:38 <Saryx>	on the living room floor when I woke up and... And... Aaaaaauuuuuuuuuuu..." His face is completely flush red from shouting up a storm on board the boat. And this is the part where he really needs to just step back and try and recompose himself. "Aaaaanyways... Asking Gigi could be a thing, and if you think it would help any I'm on board with fending off that monster of Thomas's
Aug 04 00:12:39 <Saryx>	again to get another peek, buuut... Maaan, we really need to make sure we're prepared for whatever horrible things Gigi could possibly do if we accidentally set her off."
Aug 04 00:12:58 <Saryx>	... Fucking damnit I hate when I screw up the boldings.
Aug 04 00:13:22 <Saryx>	(From 'His face' onwards shouldn't have any bolds.)
Aug 04 00:15:28 <~Shawyun>	Shawyun D:'s.
Aug 04 00:15:35 <~Shawyun>	"You WAAAAH?"
Aug 04 00:16:51 <~Shawyun>	"...Man and I got too drunk to even think to talk to Gen about that." He seems a bit disapointed inm himself ;-;.
Aug 04 00:18:53 <Saryx>	'Maaan... It sounds like we both woke up to real awkward things yesterday morning..." He stands up on the tips of his toes to patpat Shawyun.
Aug 04 00:20:22 <~Shawyun>	It's around that time Shawyun's egg that Genevieve gave him starts to rattle.
Aug 04 00:21:43 <~Shawyun>	Which completely distracts him from his bloo as he GASPS again and picks it up. "OhMyGodBabiesAreHappening."
Aug 04 00:23:41 <Saryx>	Saryx perks up a bit himself, eager to watch; hoping for cute babies to be doing cute things is always a great cure for the bloos~
Aug 04 00:23:53 <Saryx>	eager to watch as well**
Aug 04 00:25:32 <~Shawyun>	Out of the egg crawls a pale Ponyta with blue glowy eyes and flame!  It's completely corporal, but has a rather ghostly...look about it.
Aug 04 00:25:49 <~Shawyun>	It looks up to Shawyun, sneezes and nuzzles against his chest
Aug 04 00:28:15 <~Shawyun>	Shawyun lets out a squeeeeee "Oh Bondye it's adorable and terrifying and I shall name you Spookyhooves."
Aug 04 00:29:11 <Saryx>	Saryx can't help but pause and have a silent 'What the fuck?!?' moment (though the gestures accompanying it at least make it apparent to Shawyun, if he's not completely attentionlocked on OOHPONIES:D), though that quickly subsides once the cute pony does cute things, a prolonged "Aaaaaw, it's adorable!" elicited from him.
Aug 04 00:29:18 <Saryx>	... Though another eyebrow is raised at the name.
Aug 04 00:30:05 <Saryx>	He just decides against questioning it, though.
Aug 04 00:31:31 <~Shawyun>	Shawyun holds the Ponyta baby a bit and has you take a picture of him with it, all smiley and goofy, before Pokeballing it and then letting it back out to nap on a little makeshift bed he makes for it.  "I thought you were really scared of Ghosts though..."
Aug 04 00:35:52 <Saryx>	"Well, I was... But Chase got in contact with one of his friends and the two of them helped me start to get over my fear of them." He seems quite proud of that. "... On top of that, with things that happened recently, well..."
Aug 04 00:38:52 <~Shawyun>	"Huuuh.  Well, I think Gigi's scarier than any ghost anyway...you sure this would be easier than just sneaking into that Beatrice chick or Joeseph's place later?"
Aug 04 00:41:13 <Saryx>	An awkward pause ensues as he debates just how much to say to Shawyun. He quickly and uniformly decides making any mention of Kal'fu is a terrible idea since he'd probably blab to the whole world. "Yeah, I'm learning how to live alongside ghosts now~ Gigi's gonna be all about just being careful with our words. We don't upset her, she doesn't cave our skulls in. Real simple, I
Aug 04 00:41:13 <Saryx>	think~"
Aug 04 00:41:51 »»	Kain is now known as Karsten
Aug 04 00:43:23 <~Shawyun>	"...I think you'll need to take the lead on this."
Aug 04 00:43:53 <Saryx>	"Do you not get along with her or anything, Shawyun?"
Aug 04 00:44:08 <~Shawyun>	Shawyun hangs the white board back up and puts out some Poke-baby food for the new pony before you guys start over there. "No, just, 'careful with our words.' "
Aug 04 00:45:04 <Saryx>	"Oh... Well, don't worry; if anything goes bad, we got each other's backs, right?" He tries to reassure Shawyun this isn't going to go horribly badly.
Aug 04 00:48:13 <~Shawyun>	So you guys walk over to The Fifth Element, where Gigi's sitting around looking rather cross on the top deck, a margarita glass in one hand.
Aug 04 00:48:52 <~Shawyun>	"If you're looking for Anna she's not feeling well," Gigi states as you get close.
Aug 04 00:52:49 <Saryx>	"Actually, Gigi, it was you we wanted to talk to." Saryx stopped cold at Gigi's (at least seemingly) cold rebuttal to their approach, but ventures a step forward. "You didn't seem all too happy sitting up here by yourself earlier, so I figured it might've been a good idea just to check up on you, you know?"
Aug 04 00:55:41 <~Shawyun>	"Why would someone actually care about that?" She's really more pouty than angry.
Aug 04 01:02:08 <Saryx>	"A whole lot of reasons, really... Like, for one, I care about my friends, and I know Anna wouldn't be all too happy to see her friend all pouty by herself. And I might not know you all too well, but it just doesn't seem like the kind of thing you'd normally do; all the other times I've seen you you've been a whole lot more happy and cheerful than this."
Aug 04 01:05:55 <~Shawyun>	She looks over to Shawyun as well, who calms his nerves a bit and asks, "DId Thomas do something that upset you?"
Aug 04 01:07:51 <~Shawyun>	She frowns and looks to the glass with the green drink.  "It wasn't his fault really...Friday was so embarassing."
Aug 04 01:09:29 <Saryx>	"You, too, Gigi? That makes..." Saryx feigns counting on his fingers before giving up. "Enough we can start our own club for it~ You wanna join?"
Aug 04 01:11:03 <Saryx>	He smirks a bit at his own humor, but srsfaces shortly after. "But serious, sorry to hear about that, Gigi..." He looks at her glass, offering to go and refill it for her if she looks like she's running low.
Aug 04 01:13:25 <~Shawyun>	She doesn't really find that funny, and she's barely touched the drink. "When we met in Veilbeak we started talking about sports and stuff...and we started to talk about stuff together later too," She leaves out the part where she actually initiated it and contacted the wrong ThomasG at first, "and I know he didn't have a date so...I...tried to be it."
Aug 04 01:14:52 <~Shawyun>	"...It didn't work.  He was way more interested in the other, skinnier girls."
Aug 04 01:16:44 »»	Karsten is now known as Kain
Aug 04 01:16:44 <~Shawyun>	"After the Ball I..., well, think I scared him.  Which is probably why he left Darkfeather early too," she mumbles.
Aug 04 01:22:12 <Saryx>	"Aaauuuuu..." Saryx feels for the poor girl. "Well, I don't know what you did that you might've scared Thomas, but I can at least say that that's not what caused him to go off to Darkfeather. He and the other Frontier Brains still need to set up their places in Bravescar before their new jobs go full swing. And considering that starts tomorrow, if I'm not any mistaken, I'm sure
Aug 04 01:22:12 <Saryx>	it wasn't any related to you or what might've happened."
Aug 04 01:23:36 <~Shawyun>	Thomas thinks. "Did he get all flinchy and defensive or something?"
Aug 04 01:23:44 <~Shawyun>	er, Shawyun does.
Aug 04 01:23:50 <~Shawyun>	Thomas is thinking too, but that's ELSEWHERE.
Aug 04 01:24:23 <Saryx>	He's probably thinking 'Goddamnit how did I get stuck babysitting this girl?'
Aug 04 01:26:32 <~Shawyun>	Gigi's only response to that is a nod as she sips her drink.
Aug 04 01:26:55 <~Shawyun>	Shawyun: "HRRRRM.  HRRRRRRRRRRM."
Aug 04 01:29:08 <~Shawyun>	"Fret not, Gigi Durant, shaker of earths, I have a HUNCH.  It requires TESTING.  LATER.  But yeah it's not just you who had a crappy night that night, at least."
Aug 04 01:34:08 <Saryx>	"In the meantime, though... Anything else we can do to at least help lift your spirits right this moment, Gigi? Get the spring back in your step?"
Aug 04 01:42:51 <~Shawyun>	Gigi ponders that as she sips her drink.  "I don't really...think so."  She shakes her head.  "...Will probably just end up watching sappy movies with Anna and Dahlia later anyway." Siiigh.
Aug 04 01:46:37 <Saryx>	"Ohhh..." Saryx responds rather dejectedly. "I wish there was something I could do to help, but if you're sure, well... You at least want to talk about something else maybe to try and take your mind off it a bit? Or you just wanna be alone for now?"
Aug 04 01:51:12 <~Shawyun>	"I don't really want to bother others with my issues is all.  Specially when all my friends are in similar moods."
Aug 04 01:57:32 <Saryx>	"Oh, well..." At this point, this 'push-away' dismissiveness of Gigi's is really starting to take its toll on Saryx. "... Alright, then, Gigi. I guess I'll leave you be for now, then, but if you think you do need anything related to this whole mess with Thomas, lemme know, alright? And tell Anna to get back to me when she's feeling better, alright? I promised her I'd come talk
Aug 04 01:57:32 <Saryx>	to her after the ball, but if she's not feeling well either it's probably not the best idea, alright?"
Aug 04 01:59:01 <Saryx>	After exchanging goodbyes and whathaveyous with Gigi, guess he'd bring Shawyun back to 'It's One Of Ours, Sir!' for the TL;DR of his plan? 's 2 AM now so probably a good point to stop.
Aug 04 01:59:42 <~Shawyun>	Shawyun makes an awkward 'bye' as well as you guys head over, and sure, /mini!
Aug 04 02:06:56 <Saryx>	Also, Saryx is so tearing Shawyun's chart to shreds and re-organizing it more efficiently, not to mention trying to help him with better names. Like Chammy for Chase x Ammy, Alyx for himself x Alice (just to clear out ambiguity and so that it couldn't be mistaken, if he threw that one out in conversation, for Beatrice x Saryx)... Robby's turning into something that doesn't
Aug 04 02:06:56 <Saryx>	make it sound like he's talking about a dude. But yeah, things of that nature, and helping Shawyun come up with better names all his own.
Aug 04 02:07:00 <Saryx>	'cause seriously his are shit.
