  1. Apr 18 20:08:14 <Shawyun_Sariri> You stir awake to the sound of jukebox music. It's a dark lit room with a couple of cots set up. You're hardly alone in the room, quite a few others here as well, some clutching their heads and groaning.
  2. Apr 18 20:10:55 <Shawyun_Sariri> You sorta feel a bit drunk still, mind you, not really hung over like

  4. Apr 18 20:18:04 <Shawyun_Sariri> As you look around you do see some familiar faces.
  5. Apr 18 20:20:49 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas is also sorta stirring awake not far from you, as well as Dahlia totally done for in the corner.
  6. Apr 18 20:20:51 <Shawyun_Sariri> Roll perception
  7. Apr 18 20:21:23 <Saryx> Saryx slowly pulls himself up off the floor, enough that he's at least sitting upright. "Auuuuu..." He grumbles aloud to himself, removing his glasses to rub at his own temple without impedement. "... I'm real sorry... You probably really didn't need to hear all that.." Not quite looking up yet, he seems to be struggling to finish up what he was trying to say last night before.
  8. Apr 18 20:21:23 <Saryx> ... And then opening his eyes, he... Realizes he sure as hell ain't talking to no Valdis here.
  9. Apr 18 20:21:24 <Saryx> 3d6+1
  10. Apr 18 20:21:24 <DiceMaid-9001> Saryx, 3d6+1: 13 [3d6=6,1,5]
  11. Apr 18 20:24:08 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas is missing his shirt, and has this weird ass rash thing going on on bits of his upper body. Lipstick smears on his face. Dahlia inexplicity has that glowing Kent Myres pillow tucked behind her, illuminating the room.
  12. Apr 18 20:24:12 <Shawyun_Sariri> You're also missing your own shirt.
  13. Apr 18 20:27:04 <Saryx> His eyes dart left and right. "... Waaait a second..." Saryx puts his glasses back on. The process repeats. And then the whole room probably suffers. "Hunh? ... What's going on here?!?"
  14. Apr 18 20:28:03 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas slowly gets up, groaning. "Uuuugh what the...where the fuck is your shirt. Where the fuck is -my- shirt?"
  15. Apr 18 20:28:05 <Saryx> "... And who took my shirt?!?" He starts fumbling about the room, patting his hands on the floor everywhere as he crawls about in search of it.
  16. Apr 18 20:28:18 <Shawyun_Sariri> Shirt not found, sir
  17. Apr 18 20:31:12 <Saryx> "Aaaauuuuuuu...." Saryx groans, defeated. "That was one of my nicest shirts, too..." He then looks over to Thomas, and proceeds to shake the damned fool into oblivion. "And what's wrong with you?!? Why would you tell Valdis about the cinnamon thing?!?"
  18. Apr 18 20:31:31 <Shawyun_Sariri> He rubs his face, looking around. "Last I recall - holy shit aaaaaaaaaa-"
  19. Apr 18 20:32:15 <Shawyun_Sariri> "I DUNNO MAN IT JUST SORTA CAME UP"
  20. Apr 18 20:33:05 <Shawyun_Sariri> "SHIT DUDE, whole reason I came back was just to -get- your drunk ass cause she said she left you here! When I got here...those Asteri guys were throwin' down and next I know I'm wakin' up here."
  21. Apr 18 20:33:12 <Shawyun_Sariri> "She came too, dunno what the fuck the pillow came from."
  22. Apr 18 20:33:15 <Saryx> "Sorta came up? That sort of thing DOESN'T just 'sort of come up!'"
  23. Apr 18 20:33:41 <Saryx> He furious, bro.
  24. Apr 18 20:34:17 <Shawyun_Sariri> "She asked what the fuck happened to ya at the dumb party thing and I just knew it had to do with cinnamon!"
  25. Apr 18 20:34:27 <Shawyun_Sariri> Saryx, roll intuition

  31. Apr 18 20:37:42 <Saryx> And he turns around and Oh boy. ... You know what? Saryx' hand glows alit, crackling a bit like fireworks as he drives his hand into the pillow to intercept it. Force Palming the fuck out of the glowy pillow! ... God help us if this turns the whole room glittery. "No, you shut up, Dahlia! This is between me and Thomas right now!"

  33. Apr 18 20:38:48 <Shawyun_Sariri> The pillow pops like a baloon!
  34. Apr 18 20:38:54 <Shawyun_Sariri> There's glitter and confetti everywhere!
  35. Apr 18 20:38:56 <Shawyun_Sariri> Yaaaaay!
  36. Apr 18 20:40:58 <Saryx> Ooh, sparklies! "... I gotta tell Anna about this later. She really needs to give herself more credit with the whole alchemy thing. ... Not to mention she'll be real happy that thing's gone now..." He muses to himself. Distractions!
  37. Apr 18 20:41:10 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia slowly gets up, you notice she's got some sorta weird ass tribal facepaint thing going on. "You wannah go, Saryx? Do you have any idea what it's like to be wohken up by your stuhpidly loud voice?!"
  38. Apr 18 20:41:48 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas uses the distraction as a chance to check his neck, pockets. "OH GOD DAMN IT NOT AGAIN. THE FUCK HAPPENED HERE LAST NIGHT?"
  39. Apr 18 20:43:35 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas: "The fuck you so angry for anyway man?!"
  40. Apr 18 20:44:40 <Saryx> And with Dahlia's own battle cry, Saryx snaps back to this reality and to his previous rage. "Oh, you bet ,I... I..." Saryx' fury just... Sort of runs into a brick wall there as a smile creeps up on his face. "I, umm... You..." He puts a hand to his mouth to stifle the snickers, but it... It fails, and he soon bursts into an uproar of laughter. "Ma-a-an, you gotta look at
  41. Apr 18 20:44:40 <Saryx> your face, Dahlia!"
  42. Apr 18 20:45:46 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia: "You callihn' me ugly? OH -HELL NAW-"
  43. Apr 18 20:46:00 <Shawyun_Sariri> She dives at you with a kick!

  46. Apr 18 20:46:51 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas: "OH FUCK US WHY DID YOU SAY THAT."
  47. Apr 18 20:47:00 <Saryx> "Oh 5,1Bondye, no! Not the face! NOT THE FACE!" Saryx cries out, diving behind Thomas as a means of protecting himself. Detectan'!
  48. Apr 18 20:47:56 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas: "Wait what!? FU-" He gets kicked in the chest for 47 damage! Doesn't really seem to hurt him that much but. "GOD DAMN IT MAN."
  49. Apr 18 20:48:02 <Saryx> "I meant the FACE PAINT!"
  50. Apr 18 20:49:10 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia starts clambering over Thomas as he continues to owowowow to claw at you as the door slams open! Another shirtless challenger! "VODKA VOD COMRAD WINTER WORK CAMP COUNT TREES!" The red haired Shark Fighter stomps in, shaking his spear.
  51. Apr 18 20:51:05 <Saryx> "Did you not--Oh Bondye, Dahlia! Don't you trim your nails or something--hear me say face paint?!? I didn't mean it like--OWWWWWW!!!--that!"
  52. Apr 18 20:51:57 <Shawyun_Sariri> She sorta freezes up as this dude ends. "Why da fuhck is -he- here?"
  53. Apr 18 20:52:01 <Saryx> Saryx is trying to just... Push Thomas into Dahlia to get her off of or at least away from him.
  54. Apr 18 20:52:14 <Shawyun_Sariri> Roll Athletics!
  55. Apr 18 20:52:21 <Saryx> 4d6+2

  57. Apr 18 20:52:52 <Shawyun_Sariri> Shove! He topples over and she lands on top of him. Shark Fighter is still just hollering gibberish at you.
  58. Apr 18 20:53:23 <Saryx> Lewdly?
  59. Apr 18 20:54:06 <Shawyun_Sariri> Damn straight. He's on his back, she's on top of him. Dahlia: "Why are you covered in hihckies n' lihpstick? What face paihnt? WHAT DA FUCK IS HE EVEHN TRYING TO SAHY?"
  60. Apr 18 20:54:16 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas looks like his hug pillow does. "What."
  61. Apr 18 20:55:20 <Saryx> Either way, with his path to freedom, he totally uses Shark Fighter as the next blocker. "Oh, thank Bondye you're here! Dahlia's gone and lost it something real bad!"
  62. Apr 18 20:56:56 <Shawyun_Sariri> Shark Fighter: "MERCHANT SHARK DEATH VODKA." He's pointing at your back. Sorta sounds...impressed?
  63. Apr 18 20:57:25 <Shawyun_Sariri> The other two just slowly get up and stare at this.
  64. Apr 18 20:58:46 <Saryx> At his back? Oh, so they're all staring at it, hunh? Incoming words.
  65. Apr 18 20:59:27 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas: "Are you in some sorta cinnamon based biker gang? The fuck is that?"
  66. Apr 18 20:59:54 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia: "Ugh. Dragons."
  67. Apr 18 21:05:16 <Saryx> So, if they're staring at Saryx' back, what they see is a tattoo. A huge-ass tattoo that pretty much goes up from the waist all the way up to the top. What it looks like is... It's like the whole thing is bursting out towards the viewer, 3D perspective and everything. A pair of... Claws? Wings? Giant-ass crystals? Whatever the case is, they're sort of reaching out from Saryx'
  68. Apr 18 21:05:16 <Saryx> back, one with a streak of flame circling up along it, the other the same but with a trail of lightning. "... What? ... What's wr--Oh. ... Ohhhh! ... Right, I'm... Missing my shirt... And will you please shut your face with the cinnamon thing, Thomas?!?"
  69. Apr 18 21:07:16 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas just shakes his head, meandering off to the rest room.
  70. Apr 18 21:07:43 <Shawyun_Sariri> He's promptly tackled by a Luxray "FUCK." Dahlia: "Oh. There's Novah..."
  71. Apr 18 21:09:20 <Saryx> "... Novah?" Saryx perks up, excite. "Hey! Hey, Nova! Come here, boy!" He calls out to the ginormous Luxray.
  72. Apr 18 21:09:40 <Saryx> ... Because he didn't learn from the last time he tried to play with Nova.
  73. Apr 18 21:10:33 <Shawyun_Sariri> He's currently using Thomas as a scratching post. He's just sorta sphealing with it. Shark Fighter pokes you with his unown spear, prodding you to continue.
  74. Apr 18 21:13:19 <Saryx> "Oh, oh... Hey! Watch it with that! Those things hurt, you know" He pushes the spear down. "... I was gonna get to the tattoo!"
  75. Apr 18 21:14:59 <Shawyun_Sariri> Shark Fighter: "Winter work camp!" Thomas: "THE FUCK DOES THAT EVEN MEAN ASSHOLE?"

  77. Apr 18 21:20:41 <Saryx> "So..." Saryx starts talking. "Well, it was Mom's idea for me to get this tattoo. Got it, uhhh..." He starts counting on his fingers. "Sixteen, yeah! For my sixteenth birthday! It's of Tyr... You know, the Keeper of Order? Lives up in the Misty Mountains? Yeah. That guy!"
  78. Apr 18 21:23:33 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia groans. "Ugh." She goes to inspect this facepaint and the Luxray follows her. Shark Fighter just nods in approval, then points the spear out of the room. "Vodka."
  79. Apr 18 21:24:14 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas slowly gets up again. "Your mom got you a tattoo. As a present. Why does this sound completely assbackwards."
  80. Apr 18 21:26:15 <Saryx> Saryx groans. "... What?!? You don't think it's cool, Dahlia? ... I mean, I know you said you hate dragons and all, but it's not even a whole dragon! ... Just the wings! You don't even gotta look at his face!" ... Then to Thomas. "Well, not really a present more than it was just, like... A coming-of-age type of thing? You know what I'm saying?"
  81. Apr 18 21:27:13 <Saryx> And finally to Shark Fighter. "... Wait, more vodka? ... But... But..." Saryx is just... He's thinking on it.
  82. Apr 18 21:28:00 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas: "I think he means 'water' cause we're all fucking drunk still and you're screamin' like a tepig in a frying pan."
  83. Apr 18 21:28:22 <Shawyun_Sariri> He shuffles over to the barside, exhausted already. "God damn it where the fuck is my jacket and shirt."
  84. Apr 18 21:29:52 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia returns, very cross. "...It's not comihng off," and also heads to the barside.
  85. Apr 18 21:31:05 <Saryx> "... I'm not that loud, am I?" He follows over to the bar as well.
  86. Apr 18 21:31:57 <Shawyun_Sariri> So loud even his actions are bold.
  87. Apr 18 21:32:15 <Shawyun_Sariri> Shark Fighter pours you all big ass glasses of water and practically forces you to drink them
  88. Apr 18 21:34:42 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas rubs his face. "Okay. So. What the hell happened here."
  89. Apr 18 21:34:55 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia shrugs. "Don't remember a dahmned thing."
  90. Apr 18 21:35:02 <Saryx> "... Wow, these are big! ... Oh, and thank you, ummm... What'd you say your name was, again?" Down the water goes.
  91. Apr 18 21:35:24 <Shawyun_Sariri> Shark Fighter: "Shark Fighter."
  92. Apr 18 21:36:33 <Saryx> "Thanks, Shark Fighter!" He calls over after gulping down the last of it.
  93. Apr 18 21:38:02 <Shawyun_Sariri> The other two look at you. Thomas: "Do you really not remember anything but that cinnamon shit?"
  94. Apr 18 21:38:15 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas: "Cause when I got back here you were already shirtless dancin' on a tabletop."
  95. Apr 18 21:39:08 <Saryx> ". . ." Saryx staaares at Thomas. ". . . I did what?!?"
  96. Apr 18 21:39:39 <Saryx> If he'd said that three seconds later, Saryx would've temporarily learned Water Gun.
  97. Apr 18 21:39:52 <Saryx> earlier, rather.
  98. Apr 18 21:40:32 <Shawyun_Sariri> They both wince at your voice. Dahlia finds a fucking napkin and pen for your loud ass.

  101. Apr 18 21:43:58 <Shawyun_Sariri> She winces again and winds up a punch before Shark Fighter bonks her. Shark Fighter: "Write! Count trees K.B.G. Unown Space!"
  102. Apr 18 21:46:21 <Saryx> "Okay, okay, I get it..." Saryx grumbles and takes the pen and paper. "... What're you talking about with Unown Space, though, Shark Fighter?"
  103. Apr 18 21:47:08 <Shawyun_Sariri> Did he write that or say it?
  104. Apr 18 21:47:16 <Saryx> Said it.
  105. Apr 18 21:47:40 <Shawyun_Sariri> Everyone winces as Shark Fighter whistles. A bunch of Unowns come out from under the bar and start to swirl around you
  106. Apr 18 21:47:45 <Shawyun_Sariri> *POOF* Saryx gets banished.
  107. Apr 18 21:47:54 <Saryx> ... What?!?
  108. Apr 18 21:51:41 <Shawyun_Sariri> Saryx pops back after a few moments.
  109. Apr 18 21:51:55 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas and Dalhia don't really seem to give a damn what happened cause he totally deserved it.

  115. Apr 18 21:59:51 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas: "Please tell me that gave you some damn clue where the hell our shirts n shit are."
  116. Apr 18 22:00:26 <Saryx> Saryx shakes his head nope.
  117. Apr 18 22:01:15 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia: "That's it. We're all goihng to find Meericahl Eye and she's going to figuhre this ouht."
  118. Apr 18 22:01:32 <Shawyun_Sariri> She nods a thanks to Shark Fighter, grabs you both by the arm and starts hauling you out
  119. Apr 18 22:01:58 <Saryx> "... For our shirts?!?" He cries out, before getting hauled off.
  120. Apr 18 22:02:34 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas + Dalhia : "PLEASE JUST STOP TALKING."
  121. Apr 18 22:02:35 <Saryx> "Don't you think that's, like... Just a bit much, Dahlia?!?"
  122. Apr 18 22:02:50 <Saryx> "Aaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuu..."
  123. Apr 18 22:03:06 <Saryx> He just gets dragged along, head down the whole walk.
  124. Apr 18 22:03:14 <Shawyun_Sariri> She drags you through the city, to the dock, which really isn't that odd to be shirtless in given it's a friggen beach city.
  125. Apr 18 22:03:33 <Shawyun_Sariri> Though her face paint and Thomas's 'markings' get some weird looks and giggles.
  126. Apr 18 22:04:43 <Shawyun_Sariri> She stomps up the deck of the ship, and tosses you both into the living area on the top floor. It's pretty comfy, like a small living and dining room with booths and such. "MEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!"
  127. Apr 18 22:05:53 <Saryx> "Whoa!" He faceplants onto the floor. "... You coulda been a little more gentle, Dahlia!"
  128. Apr 18 22:07:24 <Shawyun_Sariri> Miracle Eye slowly walks up from the lower level, puffing on a pipe, small trail of smoke following her. She's dressed oddly casually for her. t-shirt and sweat pants. "Finally back, Dal- pfffffftttttt what the heck is this?"
  129. Apr 18 22:08:54 <Saryx> He looks up from his spot on the ground, and... "Oh, hey there, Miracle!" He pulls himself back up to his feet.
  130. Apr 18 22:09:22 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas: "We went to pick up this drunk ass cause Valdis left him there and shit happened."
  131. Apr 18 22:09:47 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dalhia: "Can you. Do thaht thing you do? We don't remember anything."
  132. Apr 18 22:10:14 <Shawyun_Sariri> Miracle Eye flops into one of the booth stalls, laughing her ass off.
  133. Apr 18 22:11:49 <Saryx> "... Can she actually do that?" Saryx looks up at Dahlia as he asks. "... Thought she said last night she can't just pick and choose all she sees like that..."

  153. Apr 18 22:22:43 <Shawyun_Sariri> "The Hanged Man. Fortune. The World."
  154. Apr 18 22:24:05 <Shawyun_Sariri> "Your night started out miserable, but on a second return things took an unexpected, merry change. You fell asleep very satisfied with how things turned out. Your shirt...not sure yet."
  155. Apr 18 22:24:24 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas nods slowly, Dahlia looks over. "Well of couhrse it couhldn't of been bad just -look- at him."
  156. Apr 18 22:25:41 <Shawyun_Sariri> She starts to shuffle the deck again, returning those three cards to it.
  157. Apr 18 22:26:39 <Saryx> Saryx looks over at Thomas. ... Only now really taking note of the hickeys and the like. "... Yeah, Thomas, you... Don't really look all too... What even is that stuff all over you?" Not the hickeys, but the other markings. He reaches over the table to like see if it's something that'd rub off or smudge or what have you.
  158. Apr 18 22:27:18 <Shawyun_Sariri> He gets all awkward and scoots away from you "What the hell man?!"
  159. Apr 18 22:27:44 <Shawyun_Sariri> "As for Dahlia..." Miracle Eye locks her gaze with the blue haired tribal painted girl, and flips over three cards.
  160. Apr 18 22:28:21 <Saryx> "I'm trying to see what that stuff is... Just get back here a second so I can feel it, Thomas!" This... Isn't gonna stop him from trying at all.
  161. Apr 18 22:28:50 <Shawyun_Sariri> "The Devil. The Empress - pppppppfffffftttt." she loses it, falling into the booth seat, laughing and kicking her feet up as the third card hits the table.
  162. Apr 18 22:29:34 <Saryx> Laughing at the card? Or at Saryx?
  163. Apr 18 22:29:58 <Shawyun_Sariri> you're not sure, but the other two look at the card confused.
  164. Apr 18 22:31:08 <Saryx> He's taking advantage of Thomas' distraction to get that marking sample. ... And will eventually get back to the card once he's made an attempt at discerning just what that crap is.
  165. Apr 18 22:31:25 <Shawyun_Sariri> It's sorta crusted and isn't coming off. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/d/db/RWS_Tarot_06_Lovers.jpg
  166. Apr 18 22:33:36 <Saryx> "... Maaan, Thomas! Whatever this stuff is, it's stuck on but good!" He licks his thumb and tries to use that as a means to get it off... But just... Kind of stops midswipe when he looks down at the card.
  167. Apr 18 22:33:46 <Shawyun_Sariri> Miracle Eye: "You- you drank so damn much you - ahahahahaha - started getting mopey and - ahahahaha - look inside your jacket."
  168. Apr 18 22:34:41 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia slowly reaches in to find a crumpled up shirt and a gunmetal locket. Dahlia: "Eh?" Thomas: "..."
  169. Apr 18 22:35:21 <Saryx> "... Isn't that...?!?" It's that locket, isn't it?
  170. Apr 18 22:35:23 <Shawyun_Sariri> Miracle Eye: "By the way that's not lip stick. It's face paint, Thomas." she starts pounding her fist on the table, still laughing.
  171. Apr 18 22:35:38 <Shawyun_Sariri> It's a different locket!
  172. Apr 18 22:38:03 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas just stands, awkwardly makes his way to a wall, and starts banging his head against it. Dalhlia flips the locket open. "Eh? My cousin and Roland's sister? I don't get it."
  173. Apr 18 22:38:06 <Saryx> "..." Saryx looks up at Dahlia. "... Didn't you say you were holding out for a special someone, Dahlia?" This isn't asked teasingly or anything. It's actually asked more out of earnest curiosity. "Maaan, you really must have gotten messed up something bad yourself!"
  174. Apr 18 22:38:10 <Shawyun_Sariri> This just makes Miracle Eye laugh harder.
  175. Apr 18 22:38:55 <Shawyun_Sariri> Saryx, intuition please.
  176. Apr 18 22:39:54 <Saryx> 3d6+2+2 ... Oh screw it, not gonna need this next session.
  177. Apr 18 22:39:55 <DiceMaid-9001> Saryx, ... Oh screw it, not gonna need this next session.: 17 [3d6=6,3,4]
  178. Apr 18 22:40:21 <Shawyun_Sariri> A) That's Thomas's shirt, B) now that you think about it both the face paint and the 'lip stick' is the same color, HRRRRRM
  179. Apr 18 22:41:23 <Saryx> ". . ." Lightbulb. "Aaaaw, that's so cute, Dahlia!"
  180. Apr 18 22:41:47 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia looks around, slightly mad. "No really what's so funny."
  181. Apr 18 22:42:37 <Shawyun_Sariri> Miracle Eye: "Ahahahahaha oh my God I am so sorry but this is the funniest damn thing ever."
  182. Apr 18 22:43:57 »» Saryx scribbles down a note on that piece of napkin paper, and folds it up before giving it over to Dahlia. [Be careful with him, Dahlia. He's been through a whole lot of hurt.]
  183. Apr 18 22:44:48 <Shawyun_Sariri> She reads it quickly, then throttles you Homer Simpson style. "WHAT IS SO DAMNED FUNNY?"
  184. Apr 18 22:46:08 »» Saryx grabs at his throat, trying to pry Dahlia's hands off of his neck. "... Can't... Breathe..." He sputters out between coughs.
  185. Apr 18 22:46:25 <Shawyun_Sariri> She stops, awaiting an answer.
  186. Apr 18 22:47:41 <Saryx> Air! Saryx hadn't considered that a luxury up until ten seconds ago. Once he's got himself a good fill of it and made certain Dahlia hadn't crushed his neck or nothing, he speaks. Quite matter-of-factly, and quite loud, to boot. "That's... That's YOUR face that was all over Thomas, Dahlia!" He points for added emphasis.
  187. Apr 18 22:48:05 <Saryx> ... Add another layer of boldtextpowers to that. You know, like this.
  188. Apr 18 22:48:34 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas: "I." *Thud* "Remember." *Thud* "All." *Thud* "Of." *Thud.* "It." *Thud.*
  189. Apr 18 22:49:40 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia: "..." She slowly stands, walks over to a fridge, pulls out two beers and cracks them both open, offering one to Thomas. They both start drinking in SHAME.
  190. Apr 18 22:50:52 <Saryx> "... Well, it could be worse. There's no face paint, well... I'd say where exactly, but don't think I should be talking about that kind of thing at the dinner table..."
  191. Apr 18 22:51:08 <Saryx> "... Is there?"
  192. Apr 18 22:51:29 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia chokes, and throws the can at you.
  193. Apr 18 22:51:34 <Shawyun_Sariri> Miracle Eye can't breath!

  201. Apr 18 22:53:04 <Shawyun_Sariri> It hits you in the head and you get covered in Wynaut Light.
  202. Apr 18 22:53:43 <Shawyun_Sariri> Dahlia stomps off downstairs, you can't tell if she's gonna cry or murder something.
  203. Apr 18 22:53:48 <Saryx> "Euuuuch!" He cries out. "Maaan, now gonna I'm all sticky!"
  204. Apr 18 22:54:01 <Shawyun_Sariri> Thomas: "...I'm, uh...gonna use your shower. Yeaaah."
  205. Apr 18 22:54:03 <Saryx> Now i'm gonna be** all sticky...
  206. Apr 18 22:54:09 <Shawyun_Sariri> He slinks off into the rest room.
  207. Apr 18 22:54:44 <Shawyun_Sariri> Miracle Eye slowly begins to compose herself. "Okay. I think I'm ok-pppffttttahahahaha.....okay. Think that's it."
  208. Apr 18 22:56:01 <Shawyun_Sariri> She slowly starts to shuffle the deck, laughing every few seconds. "I don't- pppfffttt- we're going to find out the answer to that one easily."
  209. Apr 18 22:56:55 <Shawyun_Sariri> You hear a tantrum and screaming from downstairs and she loses it again, deck shuffled at least.
  210. Apr 18 22:57:06 »» Hanako is now known as Kain
  211. Apr 18 22:59:14 <Shawyun_Sariri> Miracle Eye: "Okay. I think I can do this now..hah..haha..." she looks into your eyes, wiping away a few tears of laughter, and flipping over three cards.
  212. Apr 18 22:59:30 <Shawyun_Sariri> She's not reading your mind...but you feel a certain force upon you for sure.
  213. Apr 18 22:59:31 <Saryx> "... I was just saying..." He... Doesn't quite get what horrors he'd just inflicted right now. "... So there's... Just mine left, right? ... Think we should wait for them to come back, or...?!?"
  214. Apr 18 23:00:46 <Shawyun_Sariri> "The Fool. The High Priestess. The Magician."
  215. Apr 18 23:02:04 <Shawyun_Sariri> "You've encountered a rather unfortionate fate, haven't you? Something happened you didn't really want to last night, and you tried your hardest to block it out of memory. You enjoyed the rest of the night after that, and eventually remembered something long forgotten. So it wasn't a total loss, was it?"
  216. Apr 18 23:02:11 <Shawyun_Sariri> "..Oh, and Emile stole your shirt."
  217. Apr 18 23:05:09 <Saryx> "... Yeah, that... Sounds about right, it seems... 'pparently Dahlia and Thomas said I was dancing on tables last night after whatever it was that happened... Don't remember much of anything after drinking that... Euuugh, just thinking about it makes me feel sick... Who thought naming it Slaking Fart was a good idea, anyways?!? It sounds like the kind of thing you'd get Butt
  218. Apr 18 23:05:09 <Saryx> Disease from!"
  219. Apr 18 23:06:22 <Shawyun_Sariri> "It's just Bacardi and Wild Turkey..."
  220. Apr 18 23:08:30 <Shawyun_Sariri> She collects the cards and puts the deck back in its box.
  221. Apr 18 23:08:55 <Shawyun_Sariri> "You still got by better than THEY did. Well, at least poor Dahlia."
  222. Apr 18 23:08:57 <Saryx> "... Guess that gives me more of a reason to find Emile, since that was my nicest shirt I had... And, well..." Saryx looks around to make sure Thomas didn't come back up yet. "... Well, about what I saw... I'm still trying to figure out everything from what happened back at the Gathering a whole while back, and... You remember how you came across your necklace?"
  223. Apr 18 23:09:24 <Shawyun_Sariri> "I was meaning to speak with you about that at some point."
  224. Apr 18 23:09:41 <Shawyun_Sariri> "But given what your friend Chase has in his possession, well...maybe it'll be better to wait until then."
  225. Apr 18 23:11:21 <Shawyun_Sariri> She jingles the necklace, silver with a cube fitting, a diamond and a purple gem. "I don't imagine I found this much more different than you yours. I have seen many visions like the one you had, all different. One led me to a desert crypt, where I awoke before this."
  226. Apr 18 23:11:30 <Shawyun_Sariri> "I'm honestly not sure what it's for, though."
  227. Apr 18 23:14:51 <Saryx> "... Well, I... I thought Bondye had given it to me, my necklace. To find.... Well, I made a drawing of what I remember of the place, so I'll have that for next time I see you, Miracle. But I was told by it that it would lead me to where the world's fate could be changed. ... Not all too sure if that's right, though, now, with what I remembered earlier..."
  228. Apr 18 23:15:11 <Saryx> "If it is, though, well... Maybe yours leads some place similar."
  229. Apr 18 23:17:46 <Shawyun_Sariri> "I noticed your blonde friend found one as well. Where at?"
  230. Apr 18 23:18:26 <Saryx> "She found hers over with the Stag Lords, which... Oh, right! Those things!"
  231. Apr 18 23:19:54 <Shawyun_Sariri> "Which things?"
  232. Apr 18 23:20:13 <Saryx> ... Err, that thing. Far as Saryx knows, there's still only the one.
  233. Apr 18 23:22:11 <Saryx> "Miracle, one of the things I saw... Right before I met Bondye... The mermaid monster thing... That's there! And the Stag Lords... They worship her like a God! She gives them powers, kind of like how Chase can do with Aura, I think they said, when they bring their kids there as a coming-of-age ceremony, and... And... Maaan, that really isn't good at all!"
  234. Apr 18 23:23:15 <Shawyun_Sariri> You saw several of them in the video, actually!
  235. Apr 18 23:23:20 <Shawyun_Sariri> "Oh. The Sirens."
  236. Apr 18 23:23:20 <Shawyun_Sariri> She nods.
  237. Apr 18 23:23:30 <Shawyun_Sariri> "Those aren't the only ones," she shrugs casually.
  238. Apr 18 23:23:38 <Saryx> ... Wait, it was multiple? Hunh, musta missed that.
  239. Apr 18 23:24:27 <Saryx> "... Wait, you mean there's more of those?!?"
  240. Apr 18 23:25:55 <Shawyun_Sariri> "Like I said, I've seen several of these visions."
  241. Apr 18 23:26:11 <Shawyun_Sariri> "It's what led me to this career, to be honest. Though...well, it seems you were given more insight than I was."
  242. Apr 18 23:28:09 <Saryx> "Aaaaauuuuuuuu..." Saryx removes his glasses and headtables. "... Yeah, I... Think when we meet up with the rest of the Braves next we'll see if we can't sort all this out."
  243. Apr 18 23:28:35 <Shawyun_Sariri> "I don't think you should dwell too much on it..."
  244. Apr 18 23:29:09 <Shawyun_Sariri> "I don't believe The Sirens, in their own, or any of the other creatures I've seen, are what caused those possible futures."
  245. Apr 18 23:29:41 <Shawyun_Sariri> "They are simply a piece in a larger chess game."
  246. Apr 18 23:32:06 <Saryx> "And... Well, those things looked really bad all their own. I'd be more worried about whatever the king is on that chessboard! ... Or... Well, the Queen, really. ... Kings aren't all too powerful on their own..."
  247. Apr 18 23:33:41 <Shawyun_Sariri> "But the game isn't over until a king falls, now is it?" she puffs her pipe slowly.
  248. Apr 18 23:35:19 <Shawyun_Sariri> "I find it interesting the seers took such interest in you. Not because of your lack of aptitude, I can tell you learned much from Mr. Jenks, even if you don't realize it quite yet. Perhaps they saw an insight in you even I didn't have. Hm..."
  249. Apr 18 23:40:48 <Saryx> "... No... I'm just hoping those wouldn't be pawns on the field. Like... If that's supposed to be the weak enemy, that's still horrifying! ... Not to mention what would happen if they make it 'cross the board..." He scratches at the back of his head. "... Well, they did say they foresaw my arrival in Sandseeker, though they... Didn't get anything more than just who I was
  250. Apr 18 23:40:49 <Saryx> out of that. Not unless they were withholding something they knew from me. ... Though I don't think they would have had much of any reason to..."
  251. Apr 18 23:45:35 <Shawyun_Sariri> "Mmmm..."
  252. Apr 18 23:45:46 <Shawyun_Sariri> "So what was the outfit you left with like?"
  253. Apr 18 23:45:50 <Shawyun_Sariri> puff puff.
  254. Apr 18 23:48:11 <Saryx> "... Just that, yeah, there's something that I'm not real aware of yet..." He gives another shrug. "... My outfit, though? Ummm... Well, it was..." He just runs off what the outfit looks like. Pulls up a picture of it that he'd taken on his phone of himself wearing it. ... He's totally not the goofus who takes the picture at the mirror, by the way.
  255. Apr 18 23:49:47 <Saryx> Was totally a 'used the mirror to see what the image was as it was aimed at self' picture. ... Not that it matters much...
  256. Apr 18 23:50:08 <Shawyun_Sariri> "Huh. Mine is sort of boring."
  257. Apr 18 23:50:54 <Saryx> "... Wait..." Lightbulb! "... You'd been in that place yourself?!?"
  258. Apr 18 23:52:25 <Shawyun_Sariri> "Well...yeah?"
  259. Apr 18 23:52:29 <Shawyun_Sariri> She head tilts.
  260. Apr 18 23:53:37 <Saryx> "... I mean, I'd... When Gen brought up her talk of Different Space, I'd figured it was the same as the Dream World the Seers brought us into... But, well... You'd been pulled in yourself by an Unown, too?!?"
  261. Apr 18 23:54:26 <Shawyun_Sariri> "Unown? No...Just...the realm where those visions come from."
  262. Apr 18 23:58:15 <Saryx> "... Hunh... That's weird... When Bondye spoke to me, it said that the Unown were what brought people to the realm of Farseers... So how did you get there without Unown just... Pulling you in?" He totally said that the first time. Not Dream World. ... Derp. (Logdiving helps sometimes.)
  263. Apr 18 23:59:28 <Shawyun_Sariri> "Dreamthistle."
  264. Apr 19 00:00:09 <Shawyun_Sariri> "It's...the plant they make dream smoke from, the Pokemon that make it normally eat it."
  265. Apr 19 00:01:18 <Saryx> "..." Saryx can't help but stare at Miracle's pipe.
  266. Apr 19 00:02:00 <Shawyun_Sariri> "What?"
  267. Apr 19 00:03:10 <Shawyun_Sariri> "If it's about the rumors that inhaling it in the raw turns you into a sociopath and The Hulk, that's complete ponytashit. It's been common practice for centuries."
  268. Apr 19 00:03:56 <Saryx> "... I was just... Well, I guess that explains why you've got the pipe. I just thought it made you look all classy opposed to smoking a cigar or something. ... But it's just... You smoke that and you're whisked off to the realm of Farseers?"
  269. Apr 19 00:07:08 <Shawyun_Sariri> She laughs. "Oh, no. I just enjoy smoking."
  270. Apr 19 00:07:20 <Shawyun_Sariri> "To be perfectly honest it was a complete accident at first. Or, an experiment I guess."
  271. Apr 19 00:07:27 <Shawyun_Sariri> "This is just normal tobacco, silly."
  272. Apr 19 00:07:36 <Shawyun_Sariri> (swapping to desktop)
  273. Apr 19 00:07:46 <Saryx> (Don't forget to update the lewd count.)
  274. Apr 19 00:09:40 <Saryx> "Oh, I... Thought you might've been smoking it right now, what with you having gone and just..." He points over to the box. "The whole thing with the tarot cards."
  275. Apr 19 00:10:00 <Saryx> "... Guess that would be real trivial, though, using the plant for that."

  302. Apr 19 00:30:01 <Saryx> Tick. Tick. Tick. Awkward thought. "... Wait, you mean that, like... She's a...? That she's normally just into...?" He's hoping that much will get to what he's aiming for.
  303. Apr 19 00:30:53 <Saryx> "... We are?!?" Saryx raises an eyebrow, confused. He... Really didn't catch Chase what with him having been trying to stop Shawyun from murdering Gabby at the time.
  304. Apr 19 00:31:13 <~zoofman> "That is not it, no. But Dalhia is my best friend and I can't really speak on this for her. You understand, right?"
  305. Apr 19 00:32:05 <Saryx> "... Yeah, I got it! But what's this about us being in the same place later? Something going on I don't know about?"
  306. Apr 19 00:32:26 <~zoofman> "Your friends invited us to hang out on the beach."
  307. Apr 19 00:33:51 <Saryx> "... They did? ... How come no one ever told me about this?!?"
  308. Apr 19 00:34:27 <Saryx> He goes to check his phone to text the others about this, but... Checks his messages. "... Ohhh..."

  311. Apr 19 00:38:55 <Saryx> "... Guess we are going to the beach together, then. ... And... Guess I can wait a bit on getting my shirt back... Not like I'm gonna need it there, anyways... Should probably stop back at the hotel and pick up my cooler, at least, though..."
  312. Apr 19 00:40:03 <~zoofman> She chuckles. "No one will think odd of a young man being shirltess in Veilbeak, no."
  313. Apr 19 00:42:26 <Saryx> "Whole lot less weird than up in Shiverwing! ... Which really isn't that terrible when it's not snowing too bad, but... Yeah, I'm pretty sure they still think me and Grampa Alvis need to be sent off to the asylum sometimes."
  314. Apr 19 00:47:53 <Saryx> "But yeah, Miracle... If you don't mind me washing up real quick here, I just... Think I'd look ridiculous walking back like..." He raises his arms, spinning around to show off all of his sparkly, confetti-coated, beer-bathed self. "Well, this."
  315. Apr 19 00:48:23 <~zoofman> "Beautiful tattoo, but the glitter is..."
  316. Apr 19 00:48:33 <~zoofman> "...I'll just leave you a towel by the door," she giggles.
  317. Apr 19 00:49:42 <Saryx> "... You really think so?!?" He sports the derpsmile for but a moment. "... But yeah, really appreciate it. Thanks a whole lot!"
  318. Apr 19 00:51:02 <~zoofman> She nods, getting up to retrieve one.
  319. Apr 19 00:52:35 <Saryx> And if there's nothing else, once Saryx has that towel, he hops in the bathroom and the scene fades to steam.
