  1. 01[19:41] <Knox> Alright! This is a bit earlier in the day - back at the Sepia pokemon center. This is after the pumpkin patch but before the mansion visit proper. Knox is waiting on Spectrum to be taken care of, looking absolutely bored to tears. In case you missed his description the first time, he's almost six foot with a muscular body, white-button up shirt, black t-shirt underneath, slacks, and deep blue hair and matching eyes. He's kicking his foot a bit, and listening to his headphones, though it's a song he's heard a thousand times before. He's getting restless.
  2. 06[19:46] * Med is... well, actually, her pokemon were uninjured in the conflict, so she's the one that got bandaged up. It wasn't anything too bad though, so it mostly just involved a nurse bandaging her up really quickly.
  3. [19:46] <Med> So, now she's waiting on her former crewmates and the little girl they kidnapped to get ready.
  4. 01[19:49] <Knox> He finally switches his player off, slides his headphones down, and looks over at Med for a moment, before he stops leaning on the wall and walks over. "So... you're Med Mizou?" he breaks the ice.
  5. 12[19:49] * Med is also, since I dunno if Kain ever got a description in text form, a brown haired red eyed girl. The dice say she's hellishly cute (something along the lines of 046d046+046), and though her outfit of choice changes by the day, today she's wearing a white shirt that stops short of her stomach, stylish black pants with red lines, stylish red/white shoes, and fingerless
  6. 06[19:49] * Med gloves.
  7. 01[19:51] <Knox> Knox isn't really the one usually to be impressed by cute things, but that's preeetty cute.
  8. [19:52] <Med> "Yup~" She was probably sitting on a chair somewhere nearby.
  9. [19:53] <Med> "And you're..." shit I forget how he introduced himself
  10. [19:54] <Med> "Nicholas, right?"
  11. 01[19:54] <Knox> He hasn't, to Med at least. He picked her name up from when Mel said it at the gym - and he knew enough about Sepia to assume she was a Mizou. He rests against the wall next to the chair. "Nicholas Knight. 'Knox' to friends."
  12. [19:55] <Med> he totes shook her hand when they met!
  13. 01[19:56] <Knox> (Oh right, so he did)
  14. 01[19:56] <Knox> He nods, reintroducing himself in that fashion, rather. "Right."
  15. [19:57] <Med> "Oh, right! What're you here for, Knox? Are you my replacement?"
  16. 01[19:57] <Knox> "Replacement? Were you on their crew?"
  17. 01[19:57] <Knox> "If so, then yeah, I guess I'm your 'replacement'." he frowns.
  18. 01[19:58] <Knox> He has a seat nearby.
  19. [19:58] <Med> "Mhm. I left because... well... I think you heard what I am, right? And what the enemy uses, right?"
  20. 01[19:59] <Knox> "Something about demons and shadow pokemon."
  21. 01[19:59] <Knox> He bites his lip a bit. "Part of the reason I'm on-board in fact."
  22. 01[19:59] <Knox> "You don't seem like a demon."
  23. [20:00] <Med> "Have you ever met a demon?"
  24. 01[20:00] <Knox> He squints, looking you over carefully. "I've met a few figurative ones. Literal? Hard to say."
  25. [20:00] <Med> "I've met at least three, not counting myself."
  26. 03[20:00] * zooftop (zoofsama@sux-D2CC63B3.hsd1.nj.comcast.net) has joined #youareapirate
  27. [20:01] <Med> "None of them were really alike, though."
  28. 01[20:02] <Knox> "Uh-huh." His expression is pretty stoic.
  29. 01[20:03] <Knox> "So explain it to me, then."
  30. [20:04] <Med> "Explain what?" blinkblink
  31. 01[20:04] <Knox> "The whole demon thing and why you left."
  32. [20:05] <Med> "Um... well... I almost betrayed the team and the country."
  33. 01[20:07] <Knox> "Turning against your friends, huh? Yeah, that sounds all too familiar. You -look- fine though."
  34. [20:07] <Med> "That's because I am again."
  35. 01[20:07] <Knox> "But you're afraid you might regress if you keep going?"
  36. [20:08] <Med> "They can create shadow pokemon, right?"
  37. 01[20:08] <Knox> "That's the implication."
  38. 01[20:08] <Knox> "They can even control them."
  39. [20:08] <Med> "It's got to be even easier to do that to someone who's already like that from the start."
  40. 01[20:08] <Knox> "Against their owner's will."
  41. 01[20:08] <Knox> "At least... in our case."
  42. [20:08] <Med> "Mhm... I tried telling Mel that, but I don't think she understood... or... the other me did..."
  43. 01[20:09] <Knox> "Tch." he looks up a moment.
  44. 01[20:09] <Knox> "Let me be frank about myself, Med."
  45. 01[20:09] <Knox> "I'm a former pirate, myself. Actual pirate, not one of these pretend ones. I was with a crew based out of Conch."
  46. 01[20:11] <Knox> "Around... two years ago, our crew was approached by some shady guy who offered to sponsor our activities in exchange for favors."
  47. 01[20:11] <Knox> "We got what we needed from him and whoever his backers were - ships and pokemon mostly. Tough, violent pokemon. Sound familiar?"
  48. [20:12] <Med> "Yeah. That's how they seem to work when dealing with people."
  49. 01[20:13] <Knox> "Now, we weren't exactly killers, and they never asked us to, either, but we did jobs in exchange for all this. Went well for about a year, but we decided we wanted out. Captain figured something was up with all this and that it was all over our heads. The lady was never more right in her life."
  50. [20:14] <Med> "Oh."
  51. 01[20:14] <Knox> "'Oh'?"
  52. [20:15] <Med> "My mom's one of their assassins."
  53. 01[20:15] <Knox> "I see..."
  54. 01[20:15] <Knox> "Well, I'm pretty sure she wasn't there."
  55. 01[20:15] <Knox> "When we made landfall we were set on by a horde of pokemon."
  56. 01[20:15] <Knox> "And our own pokemon we got from them turned on us as well."
  57. 01[20:19] <Knox> "Fucking massacre. The only reason I'm still alive is because I ran and hid." he grits his teeth. "But... someone had to live on. I'm going to help you guys take down this Team Aether. I haven't been a pirate in about a year now, but this PIRATES organization found me and offered me a pardon, so here I am. Clearing my name and looking to knock in a few skulls for my old friends. I also want to figure out how to fix Tenebrae - my Pinsir. He's one of those Shadow Pokemon, too. That Lecia chick was a little helpful."
  58. [20:19] <Med> "I wonder if they'll come after me. They know who I am and where I live..."
  59. 01[20:19] <Knox> "That's true. You could stay on, be protected from them." he shrugs.
  60. 01[20:20] <Knox> "I wouldn't let them get to you, at least."
  61. [20:21] <Med> "Yeah, but... can you protect me from myself?"
  62. 01[20:24] <Knox> He snorts. "No, of course I can't. Not unless you put something in front of me that I can fight. I'm no psychologist, either. But I'd do what I could. I can be your friend at least."
  63. 01[20:25] <Knox> "No one deserves to go through that kind of shit."
  64. [20:30] <Med> "Thanks," she offers Knox a smile.
  65. 01[20:32] <Knox> "I'll give those dickbags an extra sludge bomb to the face for you when the time comes." he relaxes a bit at the smile. "Then you won't have to worry about nothin'. We weren't the nicest people, but this shit is heinous." He leans back, thinking.
  66. [20:33] <Med> "Erm... well..."
  67. 01[20:34] <Knox> "Hm?"
  68. 02[20:34] * Mayuri (lymia@481E77D9.9656169B.813A5832.IP) Quit (Ping timeout)
  69. 01[20:34] <Knox> "What." he looks over at her.
  70. [20:35] <Med> "Actually, I already had a plan!"
  71. 01[20:36] <Knox> He just waits, his expression not really changing.
  72. [20:37] <Med> "I would like to become friends with my other self - that way neither of us has to be afraid of the other one anymore!
  73. [20:37] <Med> "
  74. 01[20:38] <Knox> "Actual friendship power? Really?" he says flatly. "Well, if it works, it works. How do you plan to actually pull it off, though?"
  75. [20:38] <Med> "Huh? What's wrong with that? It's better than being in conflict with yourself..."
  76. 01[20:39] <Knox> "I guess. Don't mind me."
  77. [20:40] <Med> "And... I was hoping I could meet her in dreamland!"
  78. [20:40] <Med> "I think I'll need Lecia's help for that, though."
  79. 01[20:41] <Knox> "Dreamland?" he goes a bit distant at that, thinking about what he knows - but it's probably clear the dream world isn't in his expertise.
  80. [20:43] <Med> "Mhm. Everyone says that we're not really separate beings, so... in order to meet her, I need to go somewhere where perception's more important than reality."
  81. [20:44] <Med> "I think both of us percieve one another as separate beings, so I think it should work there."
  82. 01[20:44] <Knox> "A bit over my head. But you'll manage, I'm sure."
  83. [20:44] <Med> "Thanks!" :3
  84. 01[20:46] <Knox> He leans back again and looks at the ceiling of the Center for a moment, quiet.
  85. [20:46] <Med> "That's a lot of heavy, serious stuff though~"
  86. [20:46] <Med> "If we're gonna be friends, you should tell me more about yourself - not, like, the bad stuff, there's always a lot of bad stuff, but what you like to do!"
  87. 06[20:48] * Med is looking at Knox~
  88. 03[20:49] * Telume (vash@sux-72AA5B5F.hsd1.fl.comcast.net) has joined #youareapirate
  89. 01[20:59] <Knox> He smirks a bit, looking back at her. "Not the bad stuff, hm. Let's see then... I'm into music. Different styles of rock, grunge, alternative, power metal, some rhythm and blues. Physical activities... Urban exploration... I know a few different cue sports. Generally getting into trouble. Used to do a lot of drinking, but then something in my biology changed and it just doesn't work anymore. Not unless I go with near lethal levels of BAC. I never really was into partying, though. I can't dance for shit and I feel like an idiot when I try. I've gotten an interest in the supernatural and different ways humans can do things they were never meant to. I used to go camping back home in Unova..." he trails off a bit.
  90. 01[21:00] <Knox> "I think more than anything I like a good fight, but that's probably not that interesting."
  91. [21:01] <Med> "Wow," the girl who does literally half of everything responds. "Eheh, that's a lot!~"
  92. [21:01] <Med> "I like music too - I played in a band before, well... before we all graduated and stuff."
  93. 01[21:02] <Knox> "Really. You still play?"
  94. [21:03] <Med> "Not that often. I used to do the drums, and, well... my drumset's still on the ship. I still practice the flute every now and then though!"
  95. [21:06] <Med> "I'd like to get into a band again, though. It's just a bit tougher when evil shadowy organizations might be after you and stuff."
  96. [21:09] <Med> "So you can't ever get drunk?" SUBJECT CHANGE GO
  97. 01[21:09] <Knox> "I've played the odd thing here and there on long voyages, just to pass the time, yeah? Easy shit. Harmonica, xylophone, whatever we had. Not really band material, though." he muses a moment. "Guess I could try and learn..."
  98. 01[21:09] <Knox> "Or high." he frowns. "Or poisoned by pokemon."
  99. 01[21:10] <Knox> "My body just ingests toxins and processes them as easily as they were normal shit like vitamin C or protein."
  100. [21:11] <Med> "Huh. I guess that might be kinda awkward... I try not to drink too much anyway, though."
  101. 01[21:11] <Knox> He shrugs. "You either enjoy it or you don't. It's given me clarity of mind anyway."
  102. [21:12] <Med> "It's not that I don't enjoy it - it's just, like... well..."
  103. 01[21:12] <Knox> He pauses. "You're responsible?" he says, amused.
  104. [21:13] <Med> "I guess so~"
  105. [21:13] <Med> "Plus, you can do some really bad or dumb things if you're not in control of yourself, you know?"
  106. 01[21:14] <Knox> "I always found it more funny to deal with the consequences I set up for myself." he muses, looking nostalgic. "But I don't get that luxury anymore, so eh. Being in control has its perks, it's just sometimes I wish I -did- have the option."
  107. [21:16] <Med> "You must've never broken up with a movie star over it, then!"
  108. 01[21:16] <Knox> "I like life to be -interesting-, Med. I can't fucking stand the thought of an ordinary life for myself, as stupid as that probably sounds." He raises an eyebrow. "And hello. What, you mean Frazier? Or are there other movie stars hanging around that I didn't know of?"
  109. [21:17] <Med> "Yeah, that one~"
  110. 01[21:18] <Knox> "Sounds like that sucked, then. You at least get to enjoy it?"
  111. [21:18] <Med> "We were together for, like... one day, and then it took him two weeks to break up with me~"
  112. 01[21:20] <Knox> "Relationship drama is about the most retarded thing to get into for a pirate crew - or any team working together, really." he sighs.
  113. [21:22] <Med> "I guess so. It's hard not liking someone after working with them for a long time, though, if you work well together and stuff."
  114. 01[21:22] <Knox> "No, see, I'm not disagreeing with you there." he sits up.
  115. 02[21:22] * zooftop (zoofsama@sux-D2CC63B3.hsd1.nj.comcast.net) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
  116. [21:23] <Med> "Er... not that that's why I liked Mackers... actually, part of why I left was 'cause of the team dynamic... I've just been in that situation before!"
  117. 03[21:23] * Mayuri (lymia@sux-DCC9351A.lightspeed.rcsntx.sbcglobal.net) has joined #youareapirate
  118. 01[21:25] <Knox> "But I think people get too hung up about exclusivity and who is having sex with who else and UGH. Fucking mess. I think it's perfectly reasonable to be in an intimate relationship with multiple people and no one getting hung up over any of it, but very few people seem to see it the same way. It's not fucking hard. You just don't lie to people about your intentions. Not to mention the whole corporate shilling of- ...fuck you know what, nevermind, I'm getting off topic and I'm starting to rant. There something up with the crew's team dynamic?"
  119. [21:29] <Med> "Corporate shilling?" she asks, sounding a bit amused at the poisonous man's rantings.
  120. 01[21:33] <Knox> "Big companies make a business out of exclusive relationships under the pretense of making things more romantic. Valentine's Day, for instance. Candy, cards, jewelry, all that shit gets ready to sell on holidays dedicated to that kind of thing. And if someone in a relationship forgets about it - watch the fuck out. It's getting to be where gifts aren't thoughtful and genuine and more corporate-funded sex tax. You don't have to have a fucking day of the year devoted to being romantic, whose bidoof-brained idea was that shit?? That's the kind of thing I mean."
  121. 01[21:38] <Knox> "Where am I even going with this."
  122. 01[21:38] <Knox> He sighs and tries to calm down.
  123. 01[21:39] <Knox> "People just piss me off, nowadays."
  124. [21:40] <Med> "You sure get worked up about it~ I personally like Valentine's day. You don't have to just be nice to one person on it, or anything!"
  125. [21:41] <Med> "I made cards for my bandmates last valentines day, and I wasn't even dating any of them at the time~"
  126. 01[21:41] <Knox> "I just never got why people thought they needed to set aside a day to do something like hand out chocolates and gifts to friends and people they were interested in."
  127. [21:42] <Med> "You don't - you could do it any day of the year!"
  128. 01[21:42] <Knox> "That's something you can do any day of the year, just from feeling like it."
  129. 01[21:42] <Knox> He nods.
  130. 01[21:42] <Knox> "Exactly."
  131. [21:42] <Med> "It's just easier if it's scheduled, you know? Everyone knows about it in advance and stuff. It's harder to mess that up, if you're not good at being spontaneous."
  132. 01[21:44] <Knox> "Easier if it's scheduled... tch. Well, I don't know. Anyway, what were you saying a minute ago?"
  133. [21:44] <Med> "Huh?"
  134. [21:44] <Med> blinkblink
  135. [21:44] <Med> "That I like valentines day?"
  136. 01[21:44] <Knox> "No, team dynamic."
  137. [21:45] <Med> "Oh. Yeah. I don't think anyone really knew how to work in a team very well..."
  138. [21:45] <Med> "And some people got into fights and stuff..."
  139. [21:46] <Med> "And it looks like negative emotions're what draws out the shadow me, so... it wasn't a very good place for me to be."
  140. 01[21:47] <Knox> "Oh, great." he rolls his eyes. "Well, I guess I'll have to help whip people into shape, then. Show them how it's done. I'm not the most sociable person, Med, but there was one thing I learned from my time as a pirate, and it's that teamwork is pretty goddamn important. I'm not talking power of friendship, rainbows and hugs or anything, but the ability to set aside petty things and get shit done and rely and count on each other. Out there on the seas, we had to fight to survive. Storms could sink us if we weren't careful. Wild pokemon attacks. Other pirate vessels boarding us. Evading law enforcement."
  141. 01[21:47] <Knox> "It was hell, and I will tell you one thing - we wouldn't have made it three weeks if we hadn't learned to watch each other's backs."
  142. [21:49] <Med> "Mhm! ...what do you have against the power of friendship, anyway?"
  143. 01[21:53] <Knox> "It's an exaggerated trope." he frowns. "You can't overcome every difficulty with smiles, hugs and strong spirits - though some of them might can be. And... I guess it's just too anime, really. Not to mention... I don't want to see good people die because they thought they could get through to someone. Diplomacy can and has worked, but there comes a time when an actual fight is the only real option." he's distant a moment.
  144. [21:56] <Med> "Oh, I see~ You take things too seriously~"
  145. 01[21:57] <Knox> "Probably so people like you don't have to." he gives her a playful shove.
  146. [21:57] <Med> "I'm fine~ I have guardians~"
  147. 03[21:58] * Kraken is now known as Melons
  148. 01[21:58] <Knox> "So you don't need help after all?"
  149. [21:58] <Med> "Hm?"
  150. 01[21:58] <Knox> He shakes his head. "Nah, forget it."
  151. [21:59] <Melons> Murmuring can be heard as Melanie idly walks by, head in the clouds and face in her phone.
  152. 01[22:00] <Knox> He looks up as Melanie walks by.
  153. 01[22:01] <Knox> He looks back at Med for a moment. "You gotta understand, we were in the business of being serious."
  154. [22:01] <Med> "Yeah, yeah, there're definitely times and places to be serious!"
  155. [22:01] <Med> "But there're times when you gotta sit back and relax and stuff, too!"
  156. 01[22:02] <Knox> He snorts. "It's not like I don't."
  157. 01[22:02] <Knox> "Hey." he greets Melons.
  158. [22:02] <Med> "Prove it~"
  159. 01[22:03] <Knox> "I will, when we get a chance." he says idly.
  160. [22:03] <Med> "A chance?~"
  161. [22:03] <Melons> The recognition of Med's voice sends her scrambling to not drop her phone. Because just holding things is hard. She stares between the two of them for a bit, particularly looking at Knox like one of those stare-at-the-image-until-you-see-3D-stuff pictures. "Ah...yeah...hi."
  162. [22:03] <Med> "This is a chance, silly~"
  163. [22:05] <Melons> Mel must assume they're plotting her demise. Well, maybe not that. It IS difficult to tell whether the looks she's giving Med are suspicion or guilt.
  164. 01[22:05] <Knox> "Not one for long unless they plan to keep Spectrum much longer." He stretches though, looking over at Mel. "What? Did I get a sunburn?"
  165. 06[22:06] * Med looks to Mel, like '-'?
  166. [22:07] <Melons> "No? What? I don't think so. I don't know. Did you expect to have a sunburn? I didn't...first week here was the worst..."
  167. 01[22:07] <Knox> He grins a bit. "Well, have a seat or something."
  168. [22:09] <Melons> "Mmm." She eyes potential seats as though calculating the risks of sudden assassination before taking a seat beside Med.
  169. 01[22:12] <Knox> "We were talking about how I'm apparently too serious." he rolls his eyes. "What are you up to?"
  170. [22:13] <Melons> "Oh...um...not much, just waiting on Eli and learning that a Darkrai wanted to eat me as a fetus."
  171. [22:14] <Melons> "So...there's that."
  172. 01[22:14] <Knox> "Well there's a story."
  173. [22:14] <Melons> "Yeah I guess then my dad punched it into pieces and Med's dad banished the pieces or something."
  174. 01[22:14] <Knox> He actually seems somewhat interested.
  175. [22:19] <Melons> "I don't really know much other than that it was targetting my mom while she was pregnant and then they fought it and it was...difficult..." She looks uncomfortable speaking about it. Of course, she always looks uncomfortable, so it's probably difficult to tell, especially as a stranger without divine intuition.
  176. [22:20] <Melons> "So erm...uh...Med...do you know what your plan is now then? Are you staying here once we leave or...something else?"
  177. 01[22:21] <Knox> "Well, that sounds like it was an ordeal. Are the pieces coming back together and seeking revenge? Anything else trying to get a nibble of you? You're probably tasty." he snarks a bit, trying to be good natured in his own way.
  178. [22:23] <Melons> Mel opens her mouth to speak a few times without finding any words before a look of horror briefly crosses her face. "Um...yes...actually...I think...that might be what's happening..."
  179. 01[22:23] <Knox> "...Oh." he frowns.
  180. 01[22:23] <Knox> "Well this got awkward."
  181. [22:24] <Melons> "It already was."
  182. 01[22:25] <Knox> "Well, if some piece of shit like that is coming after someone in my crew, it'll have to go through me, first." he shrugs.
  183. [22:26] <Melons> "I...think I already saw it in my dreams...while the dream reality was breaking and eating nightmare kids or something...so...I don't think...you can help me there?"
  184. 01[22:27] <Knox> "More of that metaphysical dream stuff, huh."
  185. 06[22:28] * Med would have totes agreed with Knox about Mel being tasty.
  186. 06[22:28] * Med if a Roara was around to do so.
  187. 01[22:28] <Knox> "I'm starting to wonder how I -can- help out at this rate."
  188. [22:29] <Melons> "I can't decide if it's interesting in spite of being horrifying, or if it's more interesting because it's horrifying."
  189. 01[22:29] <Knox> "It's interesting as hell either way." he agrees.
  190. 06[22:29] * Melons would have very notably attempted to ignore any mention of her taste while red in the face.
  191. [22:32] <Melons> "So...you can shoot poison out of your skin?"
  192. 01[22:37] <Knox> He snrks. "More or less. My body is saturated with toxins. It's thickest in my blood, really, and I have full control over that - It's not like I take a piss and flowers wilt or anything. But I can synthesize venom in my body, or coagulate sludge through my pores or spit acid, or mix those up however, but it's not a constant thing. I also can't be poisoned, and poison type attacks do less to me. And unfortunately that also means I can't get drunk or whatever. Lucky me, huh."
  193. [22:38] <Melons> "...have you tried metaphysical drugs?"
  194. 01[22:38] <Knox> "Can't say I have." he raises an interested eyebrow.
  195. [22:39] <Melons> "NothatIknowanythingaboutthose!"
  196. 01[22:41] <Knox> "I've been told that if I let just a litttle bit of a specific toxin accumulate on my skin, it's like a hallucinogen. Not quite LSD, but if I could do -that- I'd probably have a steady influx of cash now." he snorts. "And of course you don't. Of course you don't."
  197. [22:41] <Melons> Mel pauses and pulls out a fancy looking rock while inspecting Knox like a speciment for disection. Finally, she frowns and turns to Med. "Med, I don't suppose you'd be interested in donating some blood?"
  198. [22:41] <Med> "Blood?"
  199. [22:42] <Melons> "The red stuff inside you."
  200. [22:42] <Melons> "Although I hear it's blue while it's inside...I don't actually know if that's true..."
  201. [22:44] <Melons> Mel snaps back to attention. "Oh, yeah, for this." She holds up the Odd Keystone, which given Med likes Dark types and comes from a family of Ghost users, recognizing an important part of a Spiritomb seems likely.
  202. 03[22:45] * DiceMaid-9001 (DiceMaid-9@sux-EADD5C74) has joined #youareapirate
  203. 01[22:45] <Knox> 2d6 general education
  204. [22:45] <DiceMaid-9001> Knox, general education: 6 [2d6=2,4]
  205. 01[22:45] <Knox> He sort of shrugs at Mel's question.
  206. [22:49] <Med> "What is it?" ~med~
  207. [22:50] <Melons> "Pretty sure it's for a Spiritomb. Gotta feed it or something. I should probably look into that more."
  208. [22:51] <Med> "Oh... are you sure it's safe to feed it demon blood?" '-'
  209. 01[22:51] <Knox> "So you feed blood to a ghost rock? Sounds pretty wicked to me."
  210. [22:52] <Melons> "Pretty sure your blood is like any other blood in this case...also I already fed it my blood, surely demon blood can't be any worse for it."
  211. [22:52] <Melons> "But yeah, that's basically what I'm doing. Goddamn that sounds dumb."
  212. 01[22:53] <Knox> "Sounds cool to me." he shrugs. "I could contribute too. I just said I can control my own toxins - I can filter my blood if you need it. How much do you need?"
  213. [22:54] <Melons> "Oh, if you have THAT much control I suppose it would work...um...a....uh...bloodsworth?" She attempts to make the OK-sign to show what is supposed to be a small amount.
  214. 01[22:56] <Knox> He squints at her a moment. "I wouldn't exactly sign myself up for a blood drive or feed a vampire or something but just a small amount should be doable." He holds his hand out over the rock and makes a fist. There's a hissing sound, and his blood starts to drip onto the rock.
  215. 01[22:56] <Knox> He makes a bit of a face as he does this.
  216. [22:57] <Melons> "Oh...thanks." A wide smile quickly flashes across her face. "I see why they had you join us..."
  217. 01[22:58] <Knox> After he thinks he's given enough, he takes his hand back and stretches his palm open - he fiddles into his backpack to fetch some bandages - he seems to have burned a small hole in his hand to let his blood.
  218. 01[22:59] <Knox> He wraps the small wound up, no big.
  219. 01[22:59] <Knox> "Sure."
  220. [23:00] <Melons> "We've only just met and you've willingly offered me your blood, to what purposes I'm using it you don't know. They sent you here because, like the rest of us, you have terrible judgment!" It's unclear if she's joking or serious.
  221. 01[23:02] <Knox> "Oh no, I am most definitely going to regret making the world a more interesting place."
  222. 01[23:04] <Knox> There's definitely a sarcastic edge there but he seems to be enjoying himself.
  223. [23:05] <Med> "I don't have terrible judgm...ent... most of the time..." :(
  224. [23:06] <Melons> "Of course you do, Med, you tried to befriend me! Most people I've met will tell you that was a mistake..."
  225. [23:07] <Melons> 4d6+4 That totally doesn't just crush her heart, nope, we be guilin'.
  226. [23:07] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, That totally doesn't just crush her heart, nope, we be guilin'.: 17 [4d6=1,5,1,6]
  227. [23:07] <Med> 5d6+6 guile?
  228. [23:07] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, guile?: 17 [5d6=1,2,3,4,1]
  229. [23:07] <Med> th-that tie
  230. 01[23:07] <Knox> 6d6 guile?
  231. [23:07] <DiceMaid-9001> Knox, guile?: 20 [6d6=4,2,3,1,5,5]
  232. [23:07] <Med> WHAT DO WE DO IN THE CASE OF TIES
  233. 06[23:08] * Med rolled intuition, not guile, silly Knox
  234. [23:08] <Melons> I...I don't know what to do...
  235. 01[23:08] <Knox> 1d6 :D
  236. [23:08] <DiceMaid-9001> Knox, :D: 4 [1d6=4]
  237. [23:08] <Med> can we say that you succeed in crushing med's heart but fail to actually guile her
  238. [23:08] <Melons> Why would that crush Med's heart?
  239. [23:08] <Med> like, you succeed in your goal, even though she's aware that you were actively trying to manipulate her into feeling that way?
  240. [23:08] <Med> oh.
  241. [23:08] <Med> melons's heart.
  242. [23:08] <Melons> Melons DO have hearts.
  243. [23:08] <Med> ...they do?
  244. [23:08] <Med> i thouhgt they were plants ...
  245. [23:09] <Melons> Plants have hearts. Haven't you ever dissected an earth worm?
  246. [23:09] <Med> no
  247. 01[23:09] <Knox> "You seem interesting enough to me." he shrugs. "Goddamn is the service taking a while. It's usually in and out. They must be backed up."
  248. [23:09] <Med> how about this
  249. [23:09] <Med> mel successfully guiles
  250. [23:09] <Med> but med decides that must hurt anyway
  251. [23:10] <Melons> On ties the defender wins apparently...but I have no idea if I'm the defender because you're rolling to see through my defenses, or if I'm the attacker because I initiated the roll...I'm inclined toward the former?
  252. [23:10] <Med> we could
  253. [23:10] <Med> reroll
  254. [23:10] <Melons> Let's do that
  255. [23:10] <Melons> 4d6+4
  256. [23:10] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, 4d6+4: 13 [4d6=2,4,1,2]
  257. [23:11] <Med> 5d6+6 INTUITION
  258. [23:11] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, INTUITION: 31 [5d6=6,6,6,3,4]
  259. [23:11] <Med> ...well okay
  260. [23:11] <Melons> PFFFFFFT
  261. [23:12] <Melons> Med is pretty sure Melanie's self-deprecating joke is something that gnaws at her night and day. She may also guess Mel blames herself entirely for their past problems.
  262. [23:13] <Melons> "Well we'll find out just how terrible your decisions are soon enough. Rest up, because based on everything I've learned, stupid and painful things are going to happen in that mansion. I'm going to guess we'll either see or meet a god, get attacked by the armies of Hell itself, or something that's just...dumb. Oh, no, wait, two of the three will happen." She is quite deliberately avoiding eye contact with Med, moreso than usual.
  263. 01[23:15] <Knox> "No doubts."
  264. [23:15] <Melons> 6d6+3 Attempt to stand. I think I've got this.
  265. [23:15] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Attempt to stand. I think I've got this.: 24 [6d6=5,2,5,3,5,1]
  266. 06[23:18] * Melons hops to her feet with the strangest nod of temporary goodbye or something, presumably that's all it could mean, and wanders off to a different part of the center.
  267. 01[23:18] <Knox> "Huh." he doesn't get it.
  268. 06[23:18] * Med waves to Mel, all awkward and not having awesomeguile to hide it. D:
  269. [23:18] <Melons> 1d6-2 Is it awkward?! Well to be fair she probably assumes all interactions with herself are awkward
  270. [23:19] <DiceMaid-9001> Melons, Is it awkward?! Well to be fair she probably assumes all interactions with herself are awkward: 4 [1d6=6]
  271. [23:19] <Med> 3d6-1 medguile?
  272. [23:19] <DiceMaid-9001> Med, medguile?: 10 [3d6=6,4,1]
  273. [23:20] <Med> "I don't think it was a mistake..." she says, possibly before Mel is out of earshot
  274. 01[23:21] <Knox> He starts to get up too, though he puts a hand on Med's shoulder. "Think a bit on what you're going to do. I'm gonna go see what the hold up is."
  275. 01[23:22] <Knox> Med can totally stop him if there was more she wanted to talk about though.
  276. [23:23] <Med> "I'm going to Conch City, as soon as I can get a way to get there." LOOKS LIKE SHE ALREADY HAS
  277. [23:23] <Med> "It might be with you guys, if Lecia's okay with that."
  278. 01[23:23] <Knox> "We'll see how it goes then."
  279. 02[23:24] * Melons (Kraken@sux-BEE091A4.dllstx.fios.verizon.net) Quit (Quit: Leaving)
  280. [23:25] <Med> "Yeah~ You still have to show me that you know how to relax, even if you do leave, though~"
  281. 01[23:27] <Knox> "Got an idea in mind?"
  282. 01[23:28] <Knox> He seems a little amused.
  283. 01[23:28] <Knox> "Otherwise... maybe I can think of something."
  284. [23:28] <Med> "Nope! You're the one who's showing me!"
  285. 01[23:28] <Knox> "Fair enough~"
  286. 01[23:28] <Knox> He turns and goes to leave.
  287. 06[23:29] * Med is left alone.
  288. [23:29] <Med> By both of the people she's waiting on.
  289. [23:29] <Med> ;-;
  290. 01[23:29] <Knox> (Wat)
  291. [23:29] <Med> (for the sake of shukers everywhere, that crying was me. at the sadness of the situation.)
  292. [23:29] <Med> (her pokemon arent hurt >_> )
  293. 01[23:30] <Knox> (He was going to see what the holdup was. He'll probably come back either way)
  294. [23:30] <Med> (ABANDONING HER T_T )
  295. 01[23:30] <Knox> (But either way it goes... our mini shall end here~)
  296. 03[23:30] * Knox is now known as Kain
  297. [23:30] <Med> (POOR MED T_T )
  298. 01[23:30] <Kain> </mini!>
