  1. Jul 02 13:14:55 <DamienLunas> Last time, on Turf Wars!
  2. Jul 02 13:15:10 <DamienLunas> we turned back the hands of time
  3. Jul 02 13:15:26 <DamienLunas> to experience a wild undersea adventure filled with action, romance, and freed's swimsuit!
  4. Jul 02 13:16:01 <DamienLunas> But later on
  5. Jul 02 13:16:09 <DamienLunas> They would recieve some disturbing news from Team Satisfaction
  6. Jul 02 13:16:24 <DamienLunas> telling them of a completely unkown species of modified pokemon owned by C.A.P!
  7. Jul 02 13:16:47 <DamienLunas> and it brings us to today
  8. Jul 02 13:16:50 <DamienLunas> Monday, the 25th
  9. Jul 02 13:17:32 <DamienLunas> Early in the morning
  10. Jul 02 13:17:36 <DamienLunas> Saru is approached by Hayato.
  11. Jul 02 13:18:23 * Kain is now known as Hope
  12. Jul 02 13:18:30  Saru is doing his usual work out routine. "Hey, Hayato! What brings you over here?"
  13. Jul 02 13:19:17 <DamienLunas> "Lord Saru. Given the relative difficulty of scouting out Team C.A.P., I believe it is in our best interests that I leave Quilts here for now."
  14. Jul 02 13:19:47 <DamienLunas> "I can work more efficiently with my men backing me up. He isn't ready yet."
  15. Jul 02 13:20:37 <Saru> "All right, if you're sure."
  16. Jul 02 13:20:57 <DamienLunas> "Very well then. Good day, Lord Saru."
  17. Jul 02 13:21:08 <Saru> "Good luck, Hayato."
  18. Jul 02 13:21:16 <DamienLunas> "Thank you."
  19. Jul 02 13:21:25 <DamienLunas> Hayato dissapears in a flash.
  20. Jul 02 13:21:59 <Arthur> (annnd i need to get food now don't i, will be in and out)
  21. Jul 02 13:22:30 <DamienLunas> "Tch, whatever."
  22. Jul 02 13:22:42 <DamienLunas> Quilts appears next to you and casts off his mask and hood.
  23. Jul 02 13:22:48 <Saru> (heh, was going "man who i leave behind to figure out my team, i finally have seven plus companion - oh wait sai-fon is asleep anyways)
  24. Jul 02 13:22:58  Saru jerks away. "How the hell did you do that?"
  25. Jul 02 13:23:12 <Arthur> "How does anyone?"
  26. Jul 02 13:23:24 <DamienLunas> "Do what. I've been here the whole time."
  27. Jul 02 13:23:30 <DamienLunas> "Anyway it suits me just fine."
  28. Jul 02 13:23:39  Saru shrugs.
  29. Jul 02 13:23:52 <DamienLunas> "I'm tired of listening to all his orders." :I
  30. Jul 02 13:24:12 <Saru> "Are you doing all right, Quilts?"
  31. Jul 02 13:24:27 <DamienLunas> "... I dunno."
  32. Jul 02 13:24:40 <DamienLunas> "I'm starting to wonder if there's been any point. If my dad's even still out there."
  33. Jul 02 13:24:43  Hope comes downstairs, rubbing her eyes. Mornings.
  34. Jul 02 13:25:29 <Saru> "Morning, Hope."
  35. Jul 02 13:25:41 <Arthur> "So what if he is or isn't? You've still got your life ahead of you, right?"
  36. Jul 02 13:25:52 <Saru> "You shouldn't give up, Quilts."
  37. Jul 02 13:26:18 <DamienLunas> "I've spent all this time doing this stuff so maybe I could find him one day! What'd be the point if I couldn't?"
  38. Jul 02 13:26:47 <Hope> "Morning... oh, Quilts?"
  39. Jul 02 13:26:49 <Arthur> "The point is being a ninja."
  40. Jul 02 13:26:54 <Arthur> "A ninja."
  41. Jul 02 13:27:13 <DamienLunas> "What's so great about being a Ninja."
  42. Jul 02 13:27:33 <DamienLunas> "It's all a bunch of lame rules and stupid chi meditation crap or whatever."
  43. Jul 02 13:27:52 <Hope> (Man, Steve would be bros with this kid :B)
  44. Jul 02 13:28:01 <DamienLunas> "I could already sneak around without pokemon knowing where I was."
  45. Jul 02 13:28:06 <Arthur> "You say when you were completely invisible until you took a mask off."
  46. Jul 02 13:28:25  Saru nods. "I didn't know you were there at all!"
  47. Jul 02 13:28:29 <Mira> "If it's something he doesn't want to do, you shouldn't try to badger him into it, Arthur. :T"
  48. Jul 02 13:28:36 <Hope> "Well..."
  49. Jul 02 13:28:38 <Arthur> "But he's already doing it!"
  50. Jul 02 13:29:02 <Hope> "Is Quilts staying here for the day, then?"
  51. Jul 02 13:29:18 <DamienLunas> "Yeah, probably however long it takes for Hayato to get results."
  52. Jul 02 13:29:27 <Hope> "I don't think we have anything scheduled... I think it's high time we help him look."
  53. Jul 02 13:29:40 <Arthur> "But if you really hate it that much, then don't do it. No skin off anyone's back right?"
  54. Jul 02 13:30:34 <DamienLunas> "I think... I'd really like to start looking."
  55. Jul 02 13:30:54 <DamienLunas> "If he's not here, I dunno, I might just leave by the end of the week. See if he's somewhere else."
  56. Jul 02 13:31:00 <Saru> "Then let's go look! I think we were just planning to hang around today anyways."
  57. Jul 02 13:31:18 <Hope> "It'll be difficult without anything to go on, but..."
  58. Jul 02 13:31:34 <DamienLunas> "I think... he's from Kanto."

  228. Jul 02 14:36:04 <DamienLunas> you can pull it up very easily.
  229. Jul 02 14:36:28 <DamienLunas> You see the lady on the table, a younger martha and her mother.
  230. Jul 02 14:36:57 <DamienLunas> "Try to relax, it'll ease the pain. Tell me about the father if it pleases you."
  231. Jul 02 14:37:22 <DamienLunas> She pants out, "I... I met him at a bar... in the Valkyrie's territory."
  232. Jul 02 14:37:46 <DamienLunas> "He was... he was from Kanto, I think..."
  233. Jul 02 14:38:15  Hope stares at Arthur for a moment.
  234. Jul 02 14:38:27 <Arthur> "...In the..."
  235. Jul 02 14:39:28 <DamienLunas> "I heard him speaking Kantonese, I never got a chance to ask him though... ow..."
  236. Jul 02 14:39:36 <DamienLunas> "Shh, tell me more about him."
  237. Jul 02 14:39:50 <DamienLunas> "I hope... I hope my boy looks like him. He had the most beautiful blond hair, and blue eyes..."
  238. Jul 02 14:40:32 <DamienLunas> "His body was so soft... and his eyes were kind... but when I woke up... it was like he was never there."
  239. Jul 02 14:40:45  Mira has no idea what's going on. leanawayfromarthur.gif
  240. Jul 02 14:41:19 <DamienLunas> Soon her contractions start up again, and they start focusing on the birth.
  241. Jul 02 14:43:10  Arthur clears his throat and straightens back up.
  242. Jul 02 14:43:16 <Arthur> "So who were the Valkyries?"
  243. Jul 02 14:43:37 <Saru> "The Valyries?"
  244. Jul 02 14:43:51 <Saru> *Valkyries
  245. Jul 02 14:43:54 <DamienLunas> "Vaklyries...?"
  246. Jul 02 14:44:00 <Arthur> "It's where... Where they met."
  247. Jul 02 14:44:06 <Arthur> "In their territory."
  248. Jul 02 14:44:07 <Hope> "The valkyries were Nina's old group."
  249. Jul 02 14:44:12 <Saru> "Yeah."
  250. Jul 02 14:44:30 <Hope> "Why?"
  251. Jul 02 14:44:32 <Arthur> "Perfect."
  252. Jul 02 14:44:51 <Arthur> "Thank you for the assistance, I do believe we'll be visiting Nina now."
  253. Jul 02 14:45:17 <Arthur> "The past of her bar probably has the clue we need. Do you have a picture or something of his mother, though, before I go?"
  254. Jul 02 14:45:27 <Mira> "Er."
  255. Jul 02 14:45:54 <DamienLunas> "N-No... nothing like that."
  256. Jul 02 14:45:59 <Hope> "As always, Arthur's powers are beyond me."
  257. Jul 02 14:46:04  Hope scratches her head.

  259. Jul 02 14:46:17 <Saru> (crap i just realized i forgot to do something today)
  260. Jul 02 14:46:20 <DamienLunas> "No, if we did... I would have given it to Quilts."
  261. Jul 02 14:46:45 <Arthur> "Right."
  262. Jul 02 14:46:54 <Arthur> "Well, let's hope she has a good memory."
  263. Jul 02 14:47:13 <DamienLunas> "You saw something?"
  264. Jul 02 14:47:31 <Arthur> "I saw the birth, yes."
  265. Jul 02 14:47:34 <Saru> (ill be back quick as i can)
  266. Jul 02 14:47:40 <DamienLunas> leaningawayfromarthur

  268. Jul 02 14:47:55 <Arthur> "...What?"
  269. Jul 02 14:48:12 <Arthur> "Look, I just do what I do here."
  270. Jul 02 14:48:37 <DamienLunas> "Uh... sure."
  271. Jul 02 14:48:50 <DamienLunas> "I guess I don't really get it, but I guess I don't really have to."
  272. Jul 02 14:48:54 <DamienLunas> "You're sure then?"
  273. Jul 02 14:49:01 <DamienLunas> "They met at that bar?"
  274. Jul 02 14:49:05  Arthur shakes his head. "If I got it, I could explain. You've helped a whole lot already."
  275. Jul 02 14:49:13  Hope hmmms
  276. Jul 02 14:49:16 <Arthur> "They met at A BAR that Nina probably knows the location of."
  277. Jul 02 14:49:24 <Arthur> "Maybe not THAT bar, but. That's why we're asking."
  278. Jul 02 14:49:37 <Arthur> "...And he could very well be our mysterious visitor, so."
  279. Jul 02 14:50:14 <DamienLunas> "Well... let's go then."
  280. Jul 02 14:51:19 <DamienLunas> Quilts walks out.
  281. Jul 02 14:51:39  Arthur makes sure he doesn't run.
  282. Jul 02 14:52:10  Arthur waits for everyone to be alone and on their way before speaking up. "I'll eat a hat if the father isn't Mr. Gorgeous."
  283. Jul 02 14:52:39 <DamienLunas> "Mr... who?"
  284. Jul 02 14:52:50 <Arthur> "Some asshole you've never met.
  285. Jul 02 14:53:07 <DamienLunas> "He's from Kanto?"
  286. Jul 02 14:53:14 <Arthur> "Probably."
  287. Jul 02 14:53:24 <DamienLunas> "Huh."
  288. Jul 02 14:53:35 <DamienLunas> "Oh, by the way, Six."
  289. Jul 02 14:53:55 <Hope> "Hm..."
  290. Jul 02 14:54:00 <Six> "Yeah?"
  291. Jul 02 14:54:16 <DamienLunas> "Thanks for giving me Smokes. He's a really useful pokemon, especially for the things I've been doing."
  292. Jul 02 14:54:16  Hope is thoughtful.
  293. Jul 02 14:54:32 <DamienLunas> "Here, let me show you some new tricks I taught him!"
  294. Jul 02 14:54:41 <Mira> "Arthur, don't say things that should never be true. :T"
  295. Jul 02 14:54:53 <DamienLunas> he whistles and out of nowhere the black turtle appears
  296. Jul 02 14:54:59 <DamienLunas> "Torkooooal."
  297. Jul 02 14:55:13 <Arthur> "What? She was swooning all over him, 'oh so soft, so gentle, but he disappeared like he was never there in the first place....' Sound familiar to you?"
  298. Jul 02 14:55:54 <Mira> "No. :I"
  299. Jul 02 14:56:31 <Hope> "That does... sound oddly familiar."
  300. Jul 02 14:56:34 <Arthur> "Of course, given that this is me guessing it, I'm probably wrong anyway."
  301. Jul 02 14:56:53 <DamienLunas> <Maybe he's some sort of Kanto spy!> chimes in Boreas
  302. Jul 02 14:56:57 <Arthur> "But COME ON it seems just so blatantly obvious that I can't imagine..."
  303. Jul 02 14:57:05 <Arthur> "...Spy is damn right."
  304. Jul 02 14:57:07 <DamienLunas> "Guys come on look you're not looking."
  305. Jul 02 14:57:08 <Hope> "Let's not jump to conclusions, though."
  306. Jul 02 14:57:15 <Arthur> "I'm looking."
  307. Jul 02 14:57:16  Hope looks at Smokes. =O
  308. Jul 02 14:57:23 <DamienLunas> Quilts backflips onto smokes

  313. Jul 02 14:57:44 <DamienLunas> and it starts floating up into the air
  314. Jul 02 14:57:49 <Arthur> "Well."
  315. Jul 02 14:57:50 <Mira> "...What."
  316. Jul 02 14:58:02 <DamienLunas> "Hahahaha it's really dizzy but really fun!"
  317. Jul 02 14:58:03 <Six> "Huh."
  318. Jul 02 14:58:19 <DamienLunas> "Wheeee okay stop stop please."
  319. Jul 02 14:58:29 <DamienLunas> The torkoal winds down and Quilts stumbles off.
  320. Jul 02 14:58:41 <DamienLunas> "I can't... do it for very long yet."
  321. Jul 02 14:59:00 <DamienLunas> Boreas grins, <Holy smokes.>
  322. Jul 02 14:59:18 <Arthur> "That... Okay, you've got potential."
  323. Jul 02 14:59:27 <Arthur> (how does penguin grin)
  324. Jul 02 14:59:32  Six patpats the turtle.
  325. Jul 02 14:59:41 <DamienLunas> "Koal~"
  326. Jul 02 14:59:50  Six wipes the soot on his hand off on Arthur. :T
  327. Jul 02 14:59:56 <DamienLunas> "Uhh... yeah. Anyway come on, let's get to that bar."
  328. Jul 02 15:00:05  Arthur blows the soot back to Six without touching it.
  329. Jul 02 15:00:08 <DamienLunas> Six
  330. Jul 02 15:00:12 <Hope> "Oh wow..."
  331. Jul 02 15:00:13 <DamienLunas> it's actually not covered in soot.
  332. Jul 02 15:00:32  Arthur was just touched out of nowhere okay.
  333. Jul 02 15:00:39 <Six> (huh)
  334. Jul 02 15:00:44 <DamienLunas> but it is still completely black.
  335. Jul 02 15:02:16 <DamienLunas> Proceed to bar?'
  336. Jul 02 15:02:54 <Arthur> y
  337. Jul 02 15:03:01 <DamienLunas> Okay then.
  338. Jul 02 15:03:16 <DamienLunas> You go over to the bar. The torkoal sort of spins its way there along the ground.
  339. Jul 02 15:04:14 <DamienLunas> You open the door. It's fairly quiet at the moment. Not a lot of activity this time in the morning.
  340. Jul 02 15:04:28  Hope looks around inside once they get there.
  341. Jul 02 15:04:38 <DamienLunas> "Hey immortals. Come for a drink?"
  342. Jul 02 15:04:54 <DamienLunas> "And Quilts, you know I keep telling Hayato you're not supposed to be in here."
  343. Jul 02 15:06:59 <Arthur> "No, actually..."
  344. Jul 02 15:07:05 <Arthur> "We came to hear a story!"
  345. Jul 02 15:07:19 <Hope> "It's a bit early for that, it does concern Quilts, though."
  346. Jul 02 15:07:36 <DamienLunas> "A story." :I
  347. Jul 02 15:08:14 <Arthur> "A~bout~... the Valkyries."
  348. Jul 02 15:08:23 <Arthur> "Actually, we'd like to know where they were."
  349. Jul 02 15:08:33 <DamienLunas> "Right here."
  350. Jul 02 15:08:38 <DamienLunas> "Idiot."
  351. Jul 02 15:08:47 <Arthur> "Oh really."
  352. Jul 02 15:08:51 <DamienLunas> "Yeah."
  353. Jul 02 15:09:00 <DamienLunas> "Didn't you just ask Saru?"
  354. Jul 02 15:09:03 <Arthur> "So how's your memory for customers, then?"
  355. Jul 02 15:09:06 <DamienLunas> "I used to be their leader."
  356. Jul 02 15:09:33 <DamienLunas> "Memory for customers?"
  357. Jul 02 15:09:48 <DamienLunas> "Pretty damn good I'd say."
  358. Jul 02 15:10:34 <Arthur> "Then how about a suave blond guy, likely a little older-looking, hitting on someone and succeeding?"
  359. Jul 02 15:11:16 <DamienLunas> "Suave blond guys usually get to succeed when they hit on someone."
  360. Jul 02 15:11:32 <Arthur> (what did his mother look like.)
  361. Jul 02 15:11:41 <DamienLunas> (Blond hair, brown eyes)
  362. Jul 02 15:11:53 <DamienLunas> (young, about 17-19)
  363. Jul 02 15:12:03 <Arthur> "The girl was... also blond, though brown eyes to his blue, probably still a teenager, but only just."
  364. Jul 02 15:12:42 <DamienLunas> "When was this? And what does it have to do with him?"
  365. Jul 02 15:12:57 <Hope> "Basically, we're trying to find information out about Quilt's father."
  366. Jul 02 15:13:13 <DamienLunas> "... his father?"
  367. Jul 02 15:13:18 <Hope> "Let's see... Martha said 12... so almost 13 years ago. That'd be a hell of a memory to have."
  368. Jul 02 15:13:22 <Arthur> "Twelve years ago, probably on..."
  369. Jul 02 15:13:26  Arthur counts.
  370. Jul 02 15:13:41 <Arthur> "...January, early January most likely."
  371. Jul 02 15:14:02 <Hope> "Arthur has been helping due to his power to see into the past."
  372. Jul 02 15:14:08 <DamienLunas> "..."
  373. Jul 02 15:14:12 <DamienLunas> she thinks...
  374. Jul 02 15:14:34 <DamienLunas> "... so it'd be a guy who looks like he could be his father, huh?"
  375. Jul 02 15:14:36 <DamienLunas> "Anything else?"
  376. Jul 02 15:15:09 <Arthur> "He said he was from Kanto, or at least seemed like it and spoke the language."
  377. Jul 02 15:15:25 <DamienLunas> "Kind of odd, don't you think?"
  378. Jul 02 15:15:39 <DamienLunas> "A blonde-haired blue eyed man from Kanto."
  379. Jul 02 15:15:55 <Arthur> "Incredibly odd, which is why I don't believe a word of it."
  380. Jul 02 15:16:10 <Arthur> "Probably from here but multilingual, really."
  381. Jul 02 15:16:19 <DamienLunas> "... yeah. It's not impossible."
  382. Jul 02 15:16:25 <Arthur> "There's a suspect already but we won't be seeing him for a week."
  383. Jul 02 15:16:37 <DamienLunas> "I think I might even remember what you were talking about."
  384. Jul 02 15:17:04  Hope taps her head, thinking...
  385. Jul 02 15:17:06 <DamienLunas> "Hey kid. What was your mom's name, did you catch that?"
  386. Jul 02 15:18:08 <DamienLunas> "Alicia. I think."
  387. Jul 02 15:18:14 <DamienLunas> "Oh."
  388. Jul 02 15:18:37 <DamienLunas> "Well that'd be January 13th then."
  389. Jul 02 15:18:52 <DamienLunas> "Kind of a hard day to forget for a lot of people."
  390. Jul 02 15:19:06 <Hope> "What happened?"
  391. Jul 02 15:19:12 <DamienLunas> "What didn't happen."
  392. Jul 02 15:19:38 <DamienLunas> "I thought you were the smart one, Hope."
  393. Jul 02 15:19:44 <DamienLunas> "The Great Cataclysm."
  394. Jul 02 15:20:16 <Arthur> "January, 13, gotcha."
  395. Jul 02 15:20:20 <DamienLunas> "Lot of people came here that day."
  396. Jul 02 15:20:24  Arthur proceeds immediately to ooooweeeeooo
  397. Jul 02 15:20:33 <DamienLunas> "Some of them remember what happened then all too well..."

  448. Jul 02 15:31:22 <DamienLunas> "I know, allright! I know."
  449. Jul 02 15:31:39 <DamienLunas> "Just... just let me have one night, okay? Just one night to not have to worry about it?"
  450. Jul 02 15:31:52 <DamienLunas> "One night to be myself. That's all I want. And that's all I need. Promise."
  451. Jul 02 15:32:53 <DamienLunas> "... just don't make any reckless decisions, Taichou."
  452. Jul 02 15:33:08 <DamienLunas> "I'll see you tomorrow."
  453. Jul 02 15:33:23 <DamienLunas> The veiled figure dissapears and he walks back into the bar.
  454. Jul 02 15:33:42 <Saru> (blargh sorry about that. i promised to bring a pie to the 4th of July cookout from this place near where i live, and i suddently remembered they arent open on sundays)
  455. Jul 02 15:33:51 <DamienLunas> (no problem)
  456. Jul 02 15:34:27 <DamienLunas> "Hey, sorry about that. I just needed some fresh air. I think I might be at my limit for sake tonight."
  457. Jul 02 15:34:40 <DamienLunas> "No problem~"
  458. Jul 02 15:34:46 <DamienLunas> Nina looks on dissaprovingly.
  459. Jul 02 15:34:53 <DamienLunas> "Well if you're not ordering anything else get out."
  460. Jul 02 15:35:10 <DamienLunas> "Okay, okay! I got it. I'll be out of your hair now, Nina. Come on, Alicia. Let's go."
  461. Jul 02 15:35:31 <DamienLunas> Arthur's vision expires.
  462. Jul 02 15:35:53  Arthur blows out, whistling. "This is... running a little deep, I think."
  463. Jul 02 15:36:04 <Arthur> "Tell me, Nina, When was your next fight?"
  464. Jul 02 15:36:18  Hope looks at Arthur a bit questioning.
  465. Jul 02 15:36:18 <Arthur> "And with who?"
  466. Jul 02 15:36:32 <Arthur> "After the night of the 13th, that is."
  467. Jul 02 15:36:35 <DamienLunas> "That was... I dunno, it was wednesdays. I can't really remember who it was with..."
  468. Jul 02 15:36:43 <DamienLunas> "Why does that matter?"
  469. Jul 02 15:37:30 <Arthur> "Well, when the father walked outside for a 'breath of fresh air', he met with someone hiding, who called him 'captain'. He was... Arguing. For just one night of fun."
  470. Jul 02 15:37:46 <Saru> "Captain?"
  471. Jul 02 15:37:55 <Arthur> "Well, the Kantonese word for it."
  472. Jul 02 15:37:58 <Arthur> "But... Yes."
  473. Jul 02 15:38:01 <DamienLunas> "Weird."
  474. Jul 02 15:38:10 <Arthur> "Apparently our father was the leader of SOMETHING."
  475. Jul 02 15:38:39  Saru rubs his chin. "Not a gang though?"
  476. Jul 02 15:38:59 <DamienLunas> "My father was the leader of something?"
  477. Jul 02 15:39:02 <Arthur> "The exact words given to him... 'Where you're going, she can't follow'."
  478. Jul 02 15:40:25 <Saru> "That's weird..."
  479. Jul 02 15:40:46 <Saru> "Hey..."
  480. Jul 02 15:41:00  Saru says something quietly to Hope.
  481. Jul 02 15:41:07  Hope looks over to Saru.
  482. Jul 02 15:42:28 <Arthur> "What're you plotting."
  483. Jul 02 15:42:53 <Arthur> "ANYWAY if Nina hasn't heard anyone ever call anyone else 'Taicho' then there's nothing else for us here, I guess..."
  484. Jul 02 15:43:25 <DamienLunas> "Guess not. But Alicia did live around here."
  485. Jul 02 15:43:40 <DamienLunas> "I wasn't her friend, but I know she was a citizen."
  486. Jul 02 15:43:41 <Hope> "Anyone living in her old place?"
  487. Jul 02 15:43:51  Arthur winces. "Do I have to watch..."
  488. Jul 02 15:43:56 <DamienLunas> "Not sure where her old place was. Long time ago. You'd have to ask around."
  489. Jul 02 15:44:38  Six yawns.
  490. Jul 02 15:44:59 <Six> "Fine, let's go there. As long as we stop standing around talking and getting nowhere."
  491. Jul 02 15:45:09 <DamienLunas> "Want a beer for the road, Six?"
  492. Jul 02 15:45:17 <Six> "God yes."
  493. Jul 02 15:45:20 <Arthur> "If this is boring you, you're free to go do something stupid elsewhere>"
  494. Jul 02 15:45:27 <DamienLunas> She tosses you a couple bottles, "That'll be one berry."
  495. Jul 02 15:45:44  Six tosses her a berry.
  496. Jul 02 15:45:56 <Six> "You're a goddess, Nina."
  497. Jul 02 15:46:08 <DamienLunas> "My pleasure, Six."
  498. Jul 02 15:46:34 <Hope> "Thanks, Nina~"
  499. Jul 02 15:47:06 <DamienLunas> "No problem. Come again some time if you need to celebrate something."
  500. Jul 02 15:47:17 <Hope> :3c
  501. Jul 02 15:47:18 <Arthur> "I will, at least."
  502. Jul 02 15:47:23  Hope heads out.
  503. Jul 02 15:47:59  Six opens one of the beers and puts the other one in his jacket pocket.
  504. Jul 02 15:48:00 <DamienLunas> So you head outside.
  505. Jul 02 15:48:13 <DamienLunas> "Any ideas?"
  506. Jul 02 15:48:42 <Arthur> "I dunno. Someone else go find someone that knows."
  507. Jul 02 15:48:58 <Arthur> "I'm basically just here for the flashbacks, after all."
  508. Jul 02 15:49:24 <Arthur> (pssst saru if you're still here)
  509. Jul 02 15:49:42 <Six> "If you think this Gorgeous guy is his father, why don't we just take Quilts with us to that boat?"
  510. Jul 02 15:49:44 <Saru> (whar)
  511. Jul 02 15:49:50 <Arthur> (roll the thing)
  512. Jul 02 15:49:54  Saru nods. "Yeah."

  514. Jul 02 15:50:01 <Saru> (oh right the shakers and such like)
  515. Jul 02 15:50:09 <Saru> "Are you sure?"
  516. Jul 02 15:50:11 <Arthur> "The father is WAY too young. Anyone have a hat?"
  517. Jul 02 15:50:21 <Arthur> "The guys was probably even younger than Alicia."
  518. Jul 02 15:50:22  Saru hands Arthur his hat.
  519. Jul 02 15:50:30 <Arthur> "...Not one in use."
  520. Jul 02 15:50:49  Saru decides to see if he can find someone who knows about this Taichou guy.

  525. Jul 02 15:51:35 <Arthur> ([4:50pm] • Arthur waits for everyone to be alone and on their way before speaking up. "I'll eat a hat if the father isn't Mr. Gorgeous.")
  526. Jul 02 15:51:43 <Arthur> "It was a joke."
  527. Jul 02 15:51:50 <DamienLunas> "Taichou?"
  528. Jul 02 15:51:58 <DamienLunas> "Hmm... that's Kantonese for Captain!"
  529. Jul 02 15:52:06 <Arthur> "See, I told you!"
  530. Jul 02 15:52:18 <DamienLunas> "I don't think there's anyone I know anywhere NAMED taichou though."
  531. Jul 02 15:53:04 <Arthur> "But what about Alicia?"
  532. Jul 02 15:53:09 <DamienLunas> "Alicia?"
  533. Jul 02 15:53:18 <DamienLunas> "I knew some alicias..."
  534. Jul 02 15:53:28 <Hope> "Do you know any Kantonese speaking guys who might've been in the neighborhood around 12, 13 years ago?"
  535. Jul 02 15:53:35 <Hope> "A gang, maybe?"
  536. Jul 02 15:53:41 <Saru> "He was the guy who they were calling Taichou."
  537. Jul 02 15:53:52 <DamienLunas> "Twelve years ago?"
  538. Jul 02 15:54:05 <Arthur> "In the middle of winter, at that."
  539. Jul 02 15:54:05 <Hope> (>everyone is under 30)
  540. Jul 02 15:54:23 <Hope> (at best, they'd have been in their teens to remember this shit :3c)
  541. Jul 02 15:54:25 <DamienLunas> "Oh! I think I saw some folk who knew kantonese, but they moved!"
  542. Jul 02 15:54:53 <DamienLunas> "So did that one lady named Alicia. Got knocked up and moved down south."
  543. Jul 02 15:55:35 <Arthur> "There we are, then. Where'd she live before her move?"
  544. Jul 02 15:55:56 <DamienLunas> "Oh I can show you! She lived in the same building as me."
  545. Jul 02 15:56:03 <DamienLunas> "Now it's just this way..."
  546. Jul 02 15:57:38 <DamienLunas> He leads the way to a run down apartment complex that's partially destroyed, but had had bits of it rebuilt.
  547. Jul 02 15:58:05 <DamienLunas> "She lived on the second floor... right up here."
  548. Jul 02 15:58:08  Hope follows, wondering.
  549. Jul 02 15:58:41 <Hope> "...this is going to get awkward quickly, isn't it? You can spare us the details of the next vision, Arthur."
  550. Jul 02 15:59:03 <DamienLunas> "Here we go, this is the room she lived in."
  551. Jul 02 15:59:04 <Arthur> "Yes. Yes it is. And I might need a heal pulse or something after, okay Le-....oh." .<
  552. Jul 02 15:59:36 <DamienLunas> He shows you to the door.
  553. Jul 02 15:59:58 <Hope> "Thanks!"
  554. Jul 02 16:00:07  Arthur starts up the vision as he enters the room, tuning into the same night and going forward and back until he gets to the point where he actually LEAVES.

  571. Jul 02 16:04:39 <Six> (Honestly don't know what Six would do here :S)
  572. Jul 02 16:04:53 <Six> (and by that I mean 'I think Six thinks this is a waste of time')
  573. Jul 02 16:04:56 <Hope> "Language barriers are the pits."
  574. Jul 02 16:05:10 <DamienLunas> (well six or saru...)

  576. Jul 02 16:05:42 <Saru> (sorry i keep having shit come up)
  577. Jul 02 16:06:02 <Arthur> "Well SOMEONE has to be able to negotiate."
  578. Jul 02 16:06:12 <DamienLunas> "Need me to translate, Señor?"
  579. Jul 02 16:06:29 <Saru> "That'd be helpful."
  580. Jul 02 16:06:34 <Six> "Can't you just use your mindspeak? I thought that didn't depend on language."
  581. Jul 02 16:06:35 <Arthur> "Go ahead, I suppose. We're looking for this kid's parents."
  582. Jul 02 16:06:48 <Arthur> "I could but that's even less polite than just barging in."
  583. Jul 02 16:07:15 <DamienLunas> The guy knocks on the door and someone opens it

  627. Jul 02 16:14:54 <DamienLunas> after fast forwarding through some making out
  628. Jul 02 16:14:59 <DamienLunas> and passionate lovemaking
  629. Jul 02 16:15:07 <DamienLunas> You eventually pick up some activity after she falls asleep.
  630. Jul 02 16:15:17 <Arthur> "O...okay, heeeere we go."
  631. Jul 02 16:15:26 <DamienLunas> The blonde haired man opens his eyes and looks at her as her arms are wrapped tightly around him
  632. Jul 02 16:15:35 <DamienLunas> in a flash, he's gone. she's only holding a pillow.
  633. Jul 02 16:15:40 <DamienLunas> And he's standing over her.

  636. Jul 02 16:16:04 <DamienLunas> "But... nothing this cowardly."
  637. Jul 02 16:16:45 <DamienLunas> "I'm sorry... I wish I could take you with me but... I have to learn to discipline myself. So I can become strong enough to end the fighting."
  638. Jul 02 16:17:21 <DamienLunas> "One day my team is going to take over this territory. And maybe we'll meet again. I'll order that same sake every night until then."
  639. Jul 02 16:17:52 <DamienLunas> "Now that I think about it... I never did tell you my name."
  640. Jul 02 16:18:04 <DamienLunas> He walks over to the window
  641. Jul 02 16:18:04 <Hope> (inb4)
  642. Jul 02 16:18:10  Arthur follows dammit.
  643. Jul 02 16:18:11 <DamienLunas> takes out a red blade and carves some odd shapes into it

  645. Jul 02 16:18:36 <DamienLunas> "I promise I won't forget you, Alicia."
  646. Jul 02 16:18:47 <DamienLunas> He opens the window and leaps straight out of it onto another roof
  647. Jul 02 16:18:53 <DamienLunas> then runs along the rooftops into the night.
  648. Jul 02 16:19:08 <Hope> "What are you following now?"

  660. Jul 02 16:20:48 <Saru> "Hm..."
  661. Jul 02 16:20:49 <Hope> "Clearly we need someone who can read this."
  662. Jul 02 16:20:55 <Arthur> (Can we assume arthur has as much anime knowledge as I do :B)
  663. Jul 02 16:21:00 <Saru> "Maybe the ninja guys?"
  664. Jul 02 16:21:07 <DamienLunas> (no :P)
  665. Jul 02 16:21:17 <Arthur> "Maybe indeed."
  666. Jul 02 16:21:19 <Hope> "Yeah... but Hayato and the others are gone at the moment, scouting for us."
  667. Jul 02 16:21:45 <DamienLunas> "But... there's still people who can read it!"
  668. Jul 02 16:22:06 <Hope> "That's right, Quilts, we'll learn your father's name."

  671. Jul 02 16:22:39 <Saru> "All right! We're almost there."
  672. Jul 02 16:23:00 <Saru> "Well, at least almost to a name. Once we have that, then we'll definitely find him."

  682. Jul 02 16:25:00 <Arthur> "Probably turns it this year."

  684. Jul 02 16:25:44 <DamienLunas> he rushes you all over to Shonagon. Miss Megumi is packaging up some books and trying to see if the combee can carry them. :/
  685. Jul 02 16:26:23 <Saru> "Hm, didn't think of that..."
  686. Jul 02 16:26:24 <Hope> "Miss Megumi!" she's probably met the lady before since she's stationed the B Mail here.

  689. Jul 02 16:27:35 <Hope> "I wouldn't try more than two or three, they're not very strong. But if you can get them to work together..."
  690. Jul 02 16:27:46 <DamienLunas> "I'll send two for now then."
  691. Jul 02 16:27:49 <Hope> "Either way, we need to ask you something."

  744. Jul 02 16:34:15 <Mira> "It's not what you want, Arthur, it's what he wants."
  745. Jul 02 16:34:33 <Saru> "Quilts, listen to me, buddy. First off, it sounds like to me Hayato doesn't know either."
  746. Jul 02 16:36:16 <Hope> "...We'll find a way to make this right, whatever the case. We're your friends, Quilts, if you want us there for you, we'll be there."
  747. Jul 02 16:37:03 <Hope> "Hayato..."
  748. Jul 02 16:38:35 <Arthur> "I suppose nobody wants to listen when I say that, before he jumped out the window, he said that he'd win the territory, come back, all disciplined and trained for the sake of ending the fighting."
  749. Jul 02 16:39:25 <Saru> "That sounds like Hayato. That and the whole jumping out of the window thing."
  750. Jul 02 16:40:02 <Arthur> "If you still hate the idea despite your father's wishes, then you're no less free to go do something else."
  751. Jul 02 16:40:20 <DamienLunas> "But... he didn't. He never saw my mom again..."
  752. Jul 02 16:40:42 <Arthur> "You say that as if it's his fault."
  753. Jul 02 16:40:52 <DamienLunas> "Why did he have to leave her?"

  889. Jul 02 17:11:30 <DamienLunas> (I got that backwards.)
  890. Jul 02 17:11:36 <Arthur> ("bullshit i can't" was to hope)
  891. Jul 02 17:11:41 <Arthur> (everything else at quilts)
  892. Jul 02 17:12:12 <DamienLunas> "Quilts... I'm sorry... it's my fault..."
  893. Jul 02 17:12:13 <Six> "Do you all really think you're going to figure out something? Like, come up with a neat little solution, right here and now?People are gonna need time to cool off and think, if nothing else. We've done our part. Now we need to let Hayato and Quilts work it out."
  894. Jul 02 17:12:53  Saru glances at Six. "You said it better than I was going to."
  895. Jul 02 17:12:56 <DamienLunas> "It's my fault you had to go through everything to begin with."
  896. Jul 02 17:13:18 <Hope> "Don't you dare talk about growing up when I've watched you do all sorts of stupid shit in person."
  897. Jul 02 17:13:22  Hope says to Arthur.
  898. Jul 02 17:13:48 <Arthur> "At least I'm having the decency to talk to them as people, no sugarcoating."
  899. Jul 02 17:14:39 <Saru> "If you think that's talking them as people..."
  900. Jul 02 17:14:41 <Hope> "Where do you even get off? What happened to you, exactly, to make you lose all sense of human-fucking-empathy?!"
  901. Jul 02 17:15:07  Saru shakes his head. "That's talking to them like they're pets. And not ones you particularly like."
  902. Jul 02 17:16:35 <Arthur> "Am I assuming better of them than you are, then? Do you expect either of those two to NOT forgive the other?"
  903. Jul 02 17:16:41 <Hope> "Six is right. They need some time to work this out."
  904. Jul 02 17:16:53 <Hope> "But you are NOT helping with your bullshit."
  905. Jul 02 17:18:13  Mira starts backing away from the argument.
  906. Jul 02 17:18:16 <DamienLunas> "Why should I forgive him?"
  907. Jul 02 17:18:54 <Six> "All I'm saying is, they don't need to wash their dirty laundry in front of all of us, with added commentary to boot."
  908. Jul 02 17:19:14 <Arthur> "He's tried his hardest all these years to fix things."
  909. Jul 02 17:19:33 <Arthur> "Even after losing, he's done everything he could sticking his neck out for us."
  910. Jul 02 17:19:48 <Arthur> "Then you say you want to help, and he shows you the best way you could help."
  911. Jul 02 17:20:12 <Arthur> "So with all that, why do you THINK I say you should?"
  912. Jul 02 17:20:14 <DamienLunas> "He cared more about that than he did about mom. Why should I care about him? I want to know!"
  913. Jul 02 17:20:40 <Arthur> "He was doing it FOR her."
  914. Jul 02 17:21:00 <Hope> "...Quilts." she turns to face him and leans down. "You're angry with him, yes. But he's your father. You cared enough to spend all that time scouring the dead zones for any sign of who he was. You have a chance that most of us never have..."
  915. Jul 02 17:21:34 <DamienLunas> "He was doing it for himself! He was a leader before he was with her! He knew they couldn't be together and he did it anyway! How did he care about her?!"
  916. Jul 02 17:22:09 <DamienLunas> "And he has the nerve to come back to this bar every night to drink his troubles away so he doesn't have to think of her!"
  917. Jul 02 17:22:19 <Hope> "Because of the heartbreak, Quilts! He could have died fighting, and that would have left your mother in even greater pain, I know what that's like!"
  918. Jul 02 17:22:36 <Hope> "To lose someone you love to these gang wars..."
  919. Jul 02 17:23:13 <Arthur> "He left a big damn obvious clue as to who he is and where you can find him. If he didn't care, he wouldn't have left his name."
  920. Jul 02 17:24:21 <DamienLunas> "He left it in god damn Kantonese, and then never even came back to see her!"
  921. Jul 02 17:24:52 <Hope> "He comes back every night to the place he first met her, he could just as easily drink at home, couldn't he?"
  922. Jul 02 17:25:43 <Arthur> "Exactly! He left it so that EVERYONE knows where he's from, unless you're saying your first thought to ask about what the Kantonese means suddenly ISN'T to ask the ninjas."
  923. Jul 02 17:27:16 <DamienLunas> "How were we supposed to ask them? They weren't even connected to our territory!"
  924. Jul 02 17:27:53 <Arthur> 1d20+8 since DL asked
  925. Jul 02 17:27:54 <DiceMaid-9001> Arthur, since DL asked: 9 [1d20=1]
  926. Jul 02 17:28:00 <Arthur> 1d20+8 klark's third
  927. Jul 02 17:28:01 <DiceMaid-9001> Arthur, klark's third: 10 [1d20=2]
  928. Jul 02 17:28:08 <Saru> (hahah)
  929. Jul 02 17:28:27 <Saru> "That's a thing though... how would he have found you before?"
  930. Jul 02 17:32:35 <Arthur> "I can't POSSIBLY imagine how someone could expect to NOT be found when he goes to the same bar every night and orders the same thing."
  931. Jul 02 17:32:38 <Hope> "Hayato... Aren't you going to say anything?"
  932. Jul 02 17:32:49 <Arthur> "You know. Like he told her he would."
  933. Jul 02 17:32:57 <DamienLunas> "What do you mean?"
  934. Jul 02 17:33:07 <Hope> (Who asked that)
  935. Jul 02 17:33:14  Arthur does his best young Hayato impression. "One day my team is going to take over this territory. And maybe we'll meet again. I'll order that same sake every night until then."
  936. Jul 02 17:33:15 <DamienLunas> Quilts
  937. Jul 02 17:33:25 <Arthur> "And THEN he left."
  938. Jul 02 17:34:47 <DamienLunas> Quilts looks up at Hayato.
  939. Jul 02 17:34:59 <DamienLunas> "Is that why you drag me to this bar every night..."
  940. Jul 02 17:35:21 <Hope> "You could have mentioned that before, Arthur." :B
  941. Jul 02 17:35:34 <Arthur> "He mentioned it just fine without my help."
  942. Jul 02 17:35:57 <Arthur> "YOU could thank me for saying it when Hayato didn't. He could've."
  943. Jul 02 17:36:01 <DamienLunas> "Yes... I promised her I'd be there every night drinking that Sake."
  944. Jul 02 17:36:30 <DamienLunas> "And I still am. Every night."
  945. Jul 02 17:37:20 <DamienLunas> "I'm so sorry quilts..."
  946. Jul 02 17:38:14 <DamienLunas> "I thought for so long that if I had just been disciplined back then... I never would have done that to her. I tried to force that into you because I was scared that you'd make the same kind of mistake I did."
  947. Jul 02 17:38:36 <DamienLunas> "But... you're not me, and it's not your fault that your life ended up the way it is. It's mine."
  948. Jul 02 17:39:39  Hope puts a hand on Quilts' shoulder, gently.
  949. Jul 02 17:39:54 <Arthur> "What's the alternative, kidnapping? And as far as I can see, Quilts has it better than a whole lot. Have you SEEN the things he can do? Noticed that he actually has people watching over him?"
  950. Jul 02 17:39:56 <DamienLunas> "I loved her... and because I couldn't forgive myself for doing that to her... that's why I drink every night. That's why I couldn't bring myself to tell you I was the man who did that to you. That's why I tried to make you as strong as I wished i was.."
  951. Jul 02 17:40:08 <Hope> (Arthur, no interrupting the monologue)
  952. Jul 02 17:40:13 <DamienLunas> Hayato has tears running down his cheeks.
  953. Jul 02 17:41:05 <DamienLunas> "So... please... even if you never listen to a word I say from now on... listen to me when I say this."
  954. Jul 02 17:41:13 <DamienLunas> "I never... went a single day without thinking of her."
  955. Jul 02 17:41:43 <Hope> "Quilts..."
  956. Jul 02 17:42:03 <DamienLunas> Quilts silently walks out from under your hand.
  957. Jul 02 17:42:27 <DamienLunas> He goes over and hugs Hayato, crying as well.
  958. Jul 02 17:42:30 <DamienLunas> "Dad..."
  959. Jul 02 17:42:55 <DamienLunas> "I never went a day without thinking about you either..."
  960. Jul 02 17:43:03 <DamienLunas> "I thought you couldn't understand how that felt but..."
  961. Jul 02 17:43:09 <Hope> "..." she smiles, softly.
  962. Jul 02 17:43:31 <DamienLunas> he sniffles, "But I have you right here... and you'll never have mom back no matter how much you miss her..."
  963. Jul 02 17:44:18 <DamienLunas> "I'm sorry Dad..." ;-;
  964. Jul 02 17:44:55 <DamienLunas> "I'm sorry too, Son. I wish we could have been there together for you... so please be here for me now."
  965. Jul 02 17:45:16 <Hope> "Let's let them be." she whispers.
  966. Jul 02 17:45:26 <DamienLunas> Hayato picks Quilts up and hugs him for a long moment.
  967. Jul 02 17:45:27 <Arthur> "Yyyyyep."
  968. Jul 02 17:46:33 <DamienLunas> Quilts lets go and looks back.
  969. Jul 02 17:46:37 <DamienLunas> "Thanks for finding my Dad."
  970. Jul 02 17:46:59 <DamienLunas> Everyone gets a trainer level!
  971. Jul 02 17:47:04  Saru grins. "The Immortals are always happy to be of service."
  972. Jul 02 17:47:11 <Arthur> "Didn't do anything to me that I can't sleep off, so I guess that means I can say 'no problem'."
  973. Jul 02 17:48:22 <DamienLunas> So then
  974. Jul 02 17:48:33 <DamienLunas> you reunite the two under the starry sky.
  975. Jul 02 17:48:39 <DamienLunas> Time to head back?
  976. Jul 02 17:48:48 <Saru> (sure)
  977. Jul 02 17:48:56 <Arthur> y
  978. Jul 02 17:49:01 <DamienLunas> very well then.
  979. Jul 02 17:49:06 <DamienLunas> also might as well...
  980. Jul 02 17:49:18 * DamienLunas has changed the topic to: Everyone gets a trainer level for reuniting Quilts with his father!
  981. Jul 02 17:49:29 <DamienLunas> there.
  982. Jul 02 17:49:32 <DamienLunas> Okay then
  983. Jul 02 17:49:41 <DamienLunas> so you all get yourselves to sleep
  984. Jul 02 17:49:44 <DamienLunas> and wake up on tuesday.
  985. Jul 02 17:50:05 <DamienLunas> Quilts and Hayato are there to greet you.
  986. Jul 02 17:50:43 <DamienLunas> "Hey guys, uh... thanks for putting up with us yesterday. And for just everything. You've been great."
  987. Jul 02 17:50:50 <DamienLunas> "So, I'm gonna make it up to you guys."
  988. Jul 02 17:51:25 <Mira> "It's. Um. You don't have to."
  989. Jul 02 17:51:43  Mira holds up Fetchjar as a defense against further yelling.
  990. Jul 02 17:51:53 <DamienLunas> "No! I'm gonna help you guys, I promise."
  991. Jul 02 17:52:48 <DamienLunas> "I'
  992. Jul 02 17:52:51 <Arthur> "Let's see what you got."
  993. Jul 02 17:52:55 <DamienLunas> "I'll show you all my secret technique."
  994. Jul 02 17:53:06 <Hope> =O
  995. Jul 02 17:53:18 <DamienLunas> He dashes around the room and all of a sudden he's gone
  996. Jul 02 17:53:26 <Hope> (Who is speaking, Hayato or Quilts?)
  997. Jul 02 17:53:30 <DamienLunas> quilts.
  998. Jul 02 17:53:46 <Hope> "Where did he-?"
  999. Jul 02 17:54:01 <Saru> "Secret technique?"
  1000. Jul 02 17:54:02 <DamienLunas> Then, he dramatically tosses down a red sheet he was holding against the curtains. "Tah dah!"
  1001. Jul 02 17:54:18 <Hope> "Hey! That's pretty neat."
  1002. Jul 02 17:54:19 <DamienLunas> "I can hide myself in an instant! It's how I learned to get around the dead zone."
  1003. Jul 02 17:54:24 <DamienLunas> "And I can teach it to your pokemon!"
  1004. Jul 02 17:54:29 <Hope> "...You can?"
  1005. Jul 02 17:54:35 <DamienLunas> "That's how I got smokes to turn all black like that!"
  1006. Jul 02 17:54:39  Mira blinks.

  1010. Jul 02 17:54:54 <DamienLunas> (THERE IS NO NINJA GYARADOS)
  1011. Jul 02 17:55:05 <Arthur> (Yes there is you just can't see them normally.)
  1012. Jul 02 17:55:07 <DamienLunas> You got a Camouflage move tutor!
  1013. Jul 02 17:55:08 <Mira> (why not ;_;)
  1014. Jul 02 17:55:55 <Hope> (Nix needs not your inferior ninja techniques of hiding, he is a proud samurai)
  1015. Jul 02 17:56:21 <Mira> (..I kinda want to teach Fetchjar for even more hilarity)
  1016. Jul 02 17:56:23 <Six> (I don't think any of my pokemon can learn it :I )

  1021. Jul 02 17:56:36 <DamienLunas> (boreas can learn it.)
  1022. Jul 02 17:56:38 <Hope> (It's sort of a highly exclusive move)
  1023. Jul 02 17:56:41 <Arthur> (Of course he can.)
  1024. Jul 02 17:56:43 <DamienLunas> (and also mira)
  1025. Jul 02 17:56:43 <Arthur> (he's a spy.)
  1026. Jul 02 17:56:43 <Mira> (gundam penguin is now deathscythe?)
  1027. Jul 02 17:56:48 <DamienLunas> (HOW TERRIBLE WOULD HE BE)
  1028. Jul 02 17:56:54 <DamienLunas> (IF HE COULD SWITCH HIS TYPE AS AN INTERRUPT)
  1029. Jul 02 17:56:58 <Six> (DL can any of my pokemon learn it?)

  1078. Jul 02 18:36:50 <DamienLunas> On wednesday!
  1079. Jul 02 18:37:00 <DamienLunas> Everyone wakes up
  1080. Jul 02 18:37:12 <DamienLunas> And Freddie has made a delicious looking breakfast.
  1081. Jul 02 18:37:18 <Arthur> (HOW DID HE GET THERE)
  1082. Jul 02 18:37:23 <HopeonaRope> (He's been here)
  1083. Jul 02 18:37:24 <DamienLunas> Freddie has been here always.
  1084. Jul 02 18:37:30 <DamienLunas> He never left once he followed Mira home.
  1085. Jul 02 18:37:39 <DamienLunas> When hope comes to the table
  1086. Jul 02 18:37:46 <DamienLunas> Freddie puts down a plate of smiley face eggs and bacon

  1093. Jul 02 18:39:37  Mira tries to enlist the help of a Pokemon who isn't made mostly of claws or feet to carry her present downstairs. She eventually settles on getting Carran's help.
  1094. Jul 02 18:40:04 <DamienLunas> Carran lifts up the present and hnng carries it downstairs for mira
  1095. Jul 02 18:40:28 <DamienLunas> <Here... you are.>

  1102. Jul 02 18:45:17 <HopeonaRope> "...The Dynasty Warriors?" she says, a little surprised. What's all this about? Not nearly as many people showed for Mira's birthday. Klark? Who's Klark?
  1103. Jul 02 18:45:29 <Dynasty> "Hey Hope, happy birthday!" Katy calls out, while the others shuffle in as well

  1142. Jul 02 18:54:23 <HopeonaRope> "You did good, sweetie, thank you."

  1144. Jul 02 18:54:37  HopeonaRope doesn't tell her she'd rather have bred it, but a roast duck is fine too.

  1151. Jul 02 18:57:30 <HopeonaRope> She smiles at the wine, and sets it aside with the farfetch'd, takes a whiff of the flowers, and then checks out the basket.

  1153. Jul 02 18:59:24 <HopeonaRope> "...Oh-ho! Sai-Fon told you, did she? Thank you!"

  1187. Jul 02 19:06:23 <DamienLunas> it should be noted that this game of risk...

  1220. Jul 02 19:12:26 <Dynasty> "That's true enough."

  1226. Jul 02 19:13:19 <Saru> (what?)

  1238. Jul 02 19:15:24 <HopeonaRope> "It's great." =D
  1239. Jul 02 19:16:42 <HopeonaRope> "I'll definitely have to make use of it..."
  1240. Jul 02 19:16:56  HopeonaRope peers into the aquarium.
  1241. Jul 02 19:17:04 <HopeonaRope> "Are you sure it's okay, though? Muirin..."
  1242. Jul 02 19:17:25 <Dynasty> Katy smiles, holding an egg wrapped in a stone ribbon the fragile bow at the top 'tying' it up, "Didn't even know about that."
  1243. Jul 02 19:17:27  Arthur shrugs. "It's a big... fish? Jelly? Whatever it is, it's big."
  1244. Jul 02 19:18:11  HopeonaRope =O's at the egg.

  1249. Jul 02 19:19:12  HopeonaRope examines it.
  1250. Jul 02 19:19:15 <Dynasty> "Course there are a handful more of his friend back home."
  1251. Jul 02 19:19:51 <HopeonaRope> "Well, thank you, Katy! I'll take very good care of it..." she gently sets the egg into the aquarium.
  1252. Jul 02 19:20:08 <Dynasty> The orange and brown egg is covered in the small rock ribbon
  1253. Jul 02 19:20:15  HopeonaRope smiles at it.
  1254. Jul 02 19:20:27 <HopeonaRope> (Bug Ace really would have been nice for Hope)
  1255. Jul 02 19:20:40 <HopeonaRope> (:3c)
  1256. Jul 02 19:21:07 <HopeonaRope> "Ooh, I bet it's going to be so adorable when it hatches...!"
  1257. Jul 02 19:21:28  HopeonaRope hugs Katy too.

  1264. Jul 02 19:23:45  HopeonaRope carefully opens it.
  1265. Jul 02 19:25:50 <Dynasty> Two polished wooden wings sit on some cloth, the inside having an engraving that you can make out if you look closely, 'Those closest to your hearts, you keep close at hand.'
  1266. Jul 02 19:25:58 <DamienLunas> >wings
  1267. Jul 02 19:26:04 <Dynasty> (Rings)
  1268. Jul 02 19:26:08 <Dynasty> (Goddamn I am dumbtier)
  1269. Jul 02 19:26:23 <Dynasty> (Special Rings +)
  1270. Jul 02 19:26:30  HopeonaRope smiles and takes them out.

  1278. Jul 02 19:30:19  HopeonaRope kisses him, and looks at Amythest again. "This has been a great day already... I'm very happy! Thanks, all of you..."
  1279. Jul 02 19:31:09 <Dynasty> She walks back over settling down by everyone else while Jane pulls a painting out and walks over after Canton hands her something else, "These are from Canton and myself." She presents the painting of Nix in his samurai helmet and a photo album of people from around the Ribbonwood's territory and their own. Scenery intermixed in
  1280. Jul 02 19:31:24 <HopeonaRope> =O!
  1281. Jul 02 19:31:30  HopeonaRope lets Nix out to let him see the painting.
  1282. Jul 02 19:31:48  HopeonaRope lets out all of her pokemon in fact, they shouldn't be missing this.
  1283. Jul 02 19:31:49 <Dynasty> "He makes a striking figure."
  1284. Jul 02 19:31:53 <DamienLunas> <Excellent!>
  1285. Jul 02 19:32:01 <DamienLunas> <It perfectly captures my gallant pride!>

  1287. Jul 02 19:32:36  HopeonaRope gently sets the painting to the side where it won't get damaged, and has a look at the photo album.
  1288. Jul 02 19:33:10 <HopeonaRope> "All these people... whose hopes and dreams we're fighting for. These are some very nice shots, Canton, thank you..."
  1289. Jul 02 19:33:34 <HopeonaRope> "And Jane, you're absolutely amazing with a brush!"
  1290. Jul 02 19:33:43 <HopeonaRope> "We'll have to find a nice place to hang this."
  1291. Jul 02 19:33:52 <HopeonaRope> "Thank you!"
  1292. Jul 02 19:33:57 <Dynasty> "I still can't quite capture dreams or someones imagination."
  1293. Jul 02 19:34:11 <Dynasty> She nods and walks back letting Bernard come up with a moderate size wooden case setting it down, "These, are useful to someone looking out for their loved ones. I thought that you would make more use of it than I would now that we're under the Immortals leadership."
  1294. Jul 02 19:34:28  HopeonaRope looks at the case, opening it.
  1295. Jul 02 19:34:55 <Dynasty> Inside lay silk bandages, he motions at them, "Took a while and a fair bit of cooperation, but this stockpile has served me well."
  1296. Jul 02 19:35:08 <HopeonaRope> "...Oh, wow. Bernard, you didn't have to..."
  1297. Jul 02 19:35:25 <HopeonaRope> "

  1299. Jul 02 19:35:36 <Dynasty> "But I wanted to. They're yours. I'd say I hope you use them well, but it would be better not to need them."
  1300. Jul 02 19:35:43 <HopeonaRope> "Yes..."
  1301. Jul 02 19:35:58  HopeonaRope runs her hand along the silk, and closes the case again.
  1302. Jul 02 19:36:38 <DamienLunas> You now add your CHA mod to the amount healed by medic features

  1306. Jul 02 19:37:36 <Dynasty> Barry bows slightly, "I'll provide my services to you and your friends whenever, as I already gave my music to Mira."
  1307. Jul 02 19:37:44 <HopeonaRope> "All these gifts... I don't know what to say. I don't deserve all of this..."
  1308. Jul 02 19:38:05 <Saru> "Yes you do."

  1317. Jul 02 19:41:01  HopeonaRope can't help but notice she didn't get anything from Arthur, but she doesn't bring it up. She yelled at him two days ago, she knows she doesn't merit it.
  1318. Jul 02 19:41:06 <DamienLunas> "But I, Gio, think that we can provide much better musical entertainment!"
  1319. Jul 02 19:41:22  HopeonaRope raises her eyebrows and turns when she hears Gio.
  1320. Jul 02 19:41:27 <Arthur> "...Check your room when we're done."
  1321. Jul 02 19:41:40 <DamienLunas> Team Rock-It is here in all their glory!

  1323. Jul 02 19:41:54 <DamienLunas> "Now then... are you ready to sing..>"
  1324. Jul 02 19:42:04 <HopeonaRope> "Oh dear..." she wonders if Dynasty and Rock-It in the same place is a good idea.
  1325. Jul 02 19:42:14 <DamienLunas> Suddenly basara crashes into the dining room with a parachute through the window
  1326. Jul 02 19:42:22 <DamienLunas> "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"
  1327. Jul 02 19:42:27 <HopeonaRope> D= THE WINDOW
  1328. Jul 02 19:42:52 <Dynasty> Bernard just shakes his head, rubbing his nose. Jane scowls, Katy and Amethyst glare, Canton tries not to laugh and Barry just bows his head
  1329. Jul 02 19:42:59 <DamienLunas> they put their hands togehter
  1330. Jul 02 19:43:00  HopeonaRope tries to wipe the horror from her face as soon as she can.
  1331. Jul 02 19:43:00 <DamienLunas> "When our rhythms are as one, the beat of our soul can not be tamed! Ancient Diva, take the stage! Unchained Melody! Idol of Rhythm, MELOETTA!"
  1332. Jul 02 19:43:22 <HopeonaRope> "You're bringing her-"
  1333. Jul 02 19:43:25 <DamienLunas> Meloetta comes in through a tear in space
  1334. Jul 02 19:43:29 <Saru> (we have a window neither Saru nor Six has crashed through at this point?)
  1335. Jul 02 19:43:43 <DamienLunas> (Actually the window was fairly broken to begin with)
  1336. Jul 02 19:43:46 <Six> (Hey, Six doesn't go around crashing into things)
  1337. Jul 02 19:43:51 <DamienLunas> "You know, if I didn't love ringo so much? I'd probably kill you all for grossly misusing that."
  1338. Jul 02 19:43:56 <Six> (well, except wild pokemon)
  1339. Jul 02 19:44:02 <DamienLunas> "I'm on acid!" :D
  1340. Jul 02 19:44:09 <DamienLunas> "That's right you are sweetie~" <3
  1341. Jul 02 19:44:11 <HopeonaRope> "Summoning her for my birthday IS a bit much, isn't it?"
  1342. Jul 02 19:44:14 <HopeonaRope> "But... thank you."
  1343. Jul 02 19:44:20  Saru boggles.
  1344. Jul 02 19:44:23 <Arthur> "Certainly a great deal more than blind..."

  1348. Jul 02 19:45:08 <DamienLunas> "Now then, who brought the cake?"
  1349. Jul 02 19:45:24 <DamienLunas> Everyone looks at Dynasty
  1350. Jul 02 19:45:30 <HopeonaRope> "Oh, that's fine, I don't need a cake..."
  1351. Jul 02 19:45:53  Six smug.jpgs, because Mira had THE BEST CAKE.
  1352. Jul 02 19:46:45 <HopeonaRope> "And honestly, I enjoy the classics just as much as rock, you don't have to try and outdo each other." :<
  1353. Jul 02 19:47:11 <Dynasty> Bernard nods, walking out
  1354. Jul 02 19:47:37 <DamienLunas> Meloetta giggles, "Music throughout the ages all has its own unique message behind it."
  1355. Jul 02 19:47:43 <Dynasty> Bringing in a fairly done up cake while Lilly pokes her head in through the broken window
  1356. Jul 02 19:47:57  HopeonaRope goes and pets the Tropius. :3
  1357. Jul 02 19:48:11  HopeonaRope then notices and =O's at the cake.
  1358. Jul 02 19:48:16 <HopeonaRope> "You didn't!"
  1359. Jul 02 19:48:16 <Dynasty> The fruitcake frosted with some sweetroot frosting they made up from Mira's present
  1360. Jul 02 19:48:18 <DamienLunas> "Some people simply don't like those certain messages. And that's fine too, because it's their opinion~"
  1361. Jul 02 19:48:40 <DamienLunas> Any candles?
  1362. Jul 02 19:48:49 <Dynasty> (No :<)
  1363. Jul 02 19:48:51 <HopeonaRope> (25 litwicks)

  1365. Jul 02 19:49:07 <DamienLunas> Freddie brings out candles.
  1366. Jul 02 19:49:19 <DamienLunas> "Oh thanks Freddie."
  1367. Jul 02 19:49:35 <DamienLunas> Suddenly the S-Squad barges in
  1368. Jul 02 19:49:46 <DamienLunas> "Sorry, are we too late for the party?"
  1369. Jul 02 19:49:52 <DamienLunas> "I'm telling you if anything we're too early."
  1370. Jul 02 19:49:58 <DamienLunas> "No look, they're about to sing happy birthday!"

  1375. Jul 02 19:50:35 <HopeonaRope> "I... come on in!"
  1376. Jul 02 19:50:47  HopeonaRope is flushing at this point.
  1377. Jul 02 19:51:55 <DamienLunas> "I'm sorry we couldn't find you much of a present on such short notice... but I think you'll like it anyway, Hope." says Maria.
  1378. Jul 02 19:52:08 <DamienLunas> Meloetta giggles, "Now then, is everyone ready?"
  1379. Jul 02 19:52:14  Mira sort of edges off because so many people.
  1380. Jul 02 19:52:15 <DamienLunas> Freddie puts the candles in.
  1381. Jul 02 19:52:21 <HopeonaRope> "I-it's fine... I've gotten far too many presents from so many wonderful people already."
  1382. Jul 02 19:53:12 <HopeonaRope> (The joke is Klark gets no birthday and Hope gets 2x the birthday ;_;)
  1383. Jul 02 19:53:16 <HopeonaRope> (Poor Klark)
  1384. Jul 02 19:53:24 <Saru> (awww.... poor Klark)

  1392. Jul 02 19:54:45 <HopeonaRope> (I would have expected Klark to get a dwebble, not Hope :3c)
  1393. Jul 02 19:54:58 <HopeonaRope> (I bet Klark got a super special tropius egg anyhow)
  1394. Jul 02 19:54:59 <DamienLunas> When it's over, everyone is stunned and amazed by its beauty.
  1395. Jul 02 19:55:07 <DamienLunas> Freed showed up partway through
  1396. Jul 02 19:55:12 <Mira> (oh no)
  1397. Jul 02 19:55:14 <DamienLunas> and seems to have been moved to tears by the beauty of the song.

  1415. Jul 02 20:00:13 <HopeonaRope> "I'd like something for her, if you wouldn't mind. Whatever you feel like making. I'm sure it'd be wonderful."
  1416. Jul 02 20:00:39 <HopeonaRope> The glaceon is curled up in Hope's arms, shining softly.
  1417. Jul 02 20:03:49 <DamienLunas> "I'll make something simply beautiful~"
  1418. Jul 02 20:03:55 <HopeonaRope> (One moment as Damien and I converse)

  1428. Jul 02 20:07:45 <DamienLunas> (before the final battle.)
  1429. Jul 02 20:07:52 <DamienLunas> (which is why I decided to make it longish like this)
  1430. Jul 02 20:08:06 <Arthur> (then it's done?)

  1433. Jul 02 20:08:38 <DamienLunas> and once it's sort of dark enough
  1434. Jul 02 20:08:48 <DamienLunas> The S-Squad lead hope outside for their present
  1435. Jul 02 20:09:19 <DamienLunas> "Okay Hope, are you ready?"

  1533. Jul 02 20:30:52 <DamienLunas> The Rapidash snorts and brushes up against his hand.
  1534. Jul 02 20:31:30 <DamienLunas> "Easy, easy. You'll get plenty of Filet Mignon once we're back. Sorry for bringing you all the way out here in the first place."
  1535. Jul 02 20:32:37 <DamienLunas> A tiny black creature with red eyes crawls out of his shirt.
  1536. Jul 02 20:32:51 <DamienLunas> <I want to go to the party tooooo.>
  1537. Jul 02 20:33:12 <DamienLunas> "I know Lucifer. I'd like to as well, to be honest."
  1538. Jul 02 20:33:28 <DamienLunas> "But it's a conflict of interests. We've already interfered more than we should have."
  1539. Jul 02 20:34:06 <DamienLunas> <But papa...>
  1540. Jul 02 20:34:28 <DamienLunas> "How about I let you loose on a fresh pack of 9-volts when we get home huh?" he rubs its belly as it coos, "Jol~"
  1541. Jul 02 20:35:17 <DamienLunas> He sighs and sits down. "Seeing this kind of stuff though... really gives me hope for their group. I guess I'm kind of biased... but I don't really care."
  1542. Jul 02 20:35:49 <DamienLunas> "Much as I want them to win though... there's a pretty insurmountable barrier they have to pass."
  1543. Jul 02 20:35:52 <HopeonaRope> (:3)
  1544. Jul 02 20:36:28 <DamienLunas> <But papa... if they lose->
  1545. Jul 02 20:36:43 <DamienLunas> "I know, Lucifer. But I won't let anything happen to Arthur."
  1546. Jul 02 20:36:51 <Arthur> (oh god what)
  1547. Jul 02 20:37:16 <DamienLunas> "Still... I can't see how they could expect to win."
  1548. Jul 02 20:37:17 <Mira> (I don't even know)
  1549. Jul 02 20:37:35 <DamienLunas> "Fighting something like that would be the greatest terror. Especially for someone like me."
  1550. Jul 02 20:37:44 <DamienLunas> "I wonder if they can really win against them..."
  1551. Jul 02 20:37:56 <DamienLunas> "Those Cyberbiotic Artificial Pokemon."
