  12. [01:23] * Now talking in #adventure2
  13. [01:23] <Moonside> Hey, I'll need the log, whoever was keeping track of it.
  14. [01:25] <Deathfish64> let me just make a pastebin
  15. [01:26] <@flibbyjibbits> are drom and lotte just coming up the stairs into the library tower or what
  16. [01:26] <Deathfish64> http://pastebin.com/vVUjH9cH log so far
  17. [01:26] <Moonside> Yeah, and I guess Elly's coming too.
  18. [01:27] <Moonside> Ok, thanks df.
  19. [01:27] <Moonside> I'll have to edit this a little later.
  20. [01:27] <Deathfish64> Yeah
  21. [01:28] <Deathfish64> I just copy-pasted from my chat client so it looks rather rough
  22. [01:30] <Moonside> So, as Lotte, Elly and Drom walk up the stairs, Elly is saying something. E: "...are you sure it's alright? I mean, I don't really know..." L: "Yeah, sure. I mean, why not?"
  23. [01:30] <Skeleton> sniff sniff I SMELL LADIES
  24. [01:31] <CommodoreJim> I enter the placething. "Sorry we're late."
  25. [01:31] <Moonside> "Hey."
  26. [01:31] <Skeleton> "Hey guys!"
  27. [01:32] <Moonside> E: "...h-hello..."
  28. [01:32] <Deathfish64> "Hi."
  29. [01:33] <@flibbyjibbits> "Not a problem. Might, by chance, any of you be able to provide any better recountation of events? Not to knock those who were here on time, of ourse."
  30. [01:33] <@flibbyjibbits> says telmar
  31. [01:34] <CommodoreJim> 'What an asshole.' I think.
  32. [01:34] <CommodoreJim> MAN I don't wanna type out events
  33. [01:34] <Moonside> [exposition]
  34. [01:35] <Skeleton> Flib wants words
  35. [01:35] <@flibbyjibbits> you dont have to be terribly verbose, just at least put it in quotation marks, since they way you say it might have something to do with the way they reply
  36. [01:37] <Moonside> "We didn't find out much. The group that apparently was behind the conspiracy was destroyed by the Order of the Great Wheel, in Tholest. That parrot we found was shipped ilegally from (name of the city that I forget). Apparently that happens a lot. And... that's it."
  37. [01:37] <Skeleton> Lenima
  38. [01:37] <CommodoreJim> LAMEima
  39. [01:38] <Moonside> Yeah, that.
  40. [01:38] <Moonside> Flib, you need to make that map :E
  41. [01:38] <Skeleton> Didn't he? I vaguely remember one
  42. [01:38] <@flibbyjibbits> i had a map it just never gets saved
  43. [01:38] <Moonside> I remember no such thing.
  44. [01:40] <Deathfish64> "Oh yeah, about that funny story I mentioned. We had some parrot records, but a weird guy with a hood took them."
  45. [01:40] <@flibbyjibbits> ill get a better one soon since the one i posted at some point a couple days ago seems misplaced, for now i guess all that matters is tholest was where luce and cobbs club was, lenima is where you just were
  46. [01:40] <Moonside> Tholest was the shithole, Lenima was the assholehole.
  47. [01:41] <@flibbyjibbits> other way to think of it
  48. [01:42] <@flibbyjibbits> Telmar: "Stolen? You found papers related to the case and they got stolen? How?"
  49. [01:42] <Deathfish64> Knowledge check to see if I know anything about how he did what that?
  50. [01:42] <Moonside> "While we were teleporting here, we ended up in a black void, and were all paralyzed. A hooded guy came, gave us some money, and took the files."
  51. [01:43] <Deathfish64> did that*
  52. [01:43] <CommodoreJim> "And this." I motion towards the amulet I'm wearing.
  53. [01:43] <Skeleton> His ghetto medallion
  54. [01:43] <Skeleton> It should have been a flava flav clock
  55. [01:44] <@flibbyjibbits> arcane knolwedge check implies that it might have been a variant of a dimensional anchor spell, though you have no idea how he could have modified it to work that way
  56. [01:44] <Deathfish64> Too bad I don't have that knowledge skill
  57. [01:44] <Deathfish64> Freddy?
  58. [01:44] <@flibbyjibbits> oh you dont huh
  59. [01:44] <Deathfish64> nope
  60. [01:44] <Moonside> I do.
  61. [01:45] <Deathfish64> That works
  62. [01:45] <Skeleton> I got arcana knowledge
  63. [01:45] <@flibbyjibbits> i didnt actually check your characterpage i kinda just made an assumption
  64. [01:45] <Deathfish64> I have planes, nature, and dungeoneering
  65. [01:45] <Moonside> I have everything but religion and noblity.
  66. [01:45] <Deathfish64> I don't actually get all that many skill points, so you know
  67. [01:46] <@flibbyjibbits> Falkan strokes his beard a bit, leaning back in his chair. He takes a flask out of his pocket and takes a sip from it, then returns the flask. "Did he leave a note, was there a little bit of a breeze, or did it seem like your hair stood on end? While you were in the void?"
  68. [01:47] <Moonside> "...ah, yes, there was a little breeze before he appeared."
  69. [01:47] <CommodoreJim> I hand Falkan the note that was in my pouch. "There was this."
  70. [01:48] <@flibbyjibbits> "Thats quite interesting then. At any point did you publicly make some statement of dislike, or take any hostile action, towards some member of the order?"
  71. [01:49] <Deathfish64> ("Oh yeah, loads of times.")
  72. [01:49] <Skeleton> "I think I might've badmouthed one of them, in a pub in Lenima. Maybe nobody heard..."
  73. [01:49] <Deathfish64> "...maybe."
  74. [01:50] <Moonside> "...hmm, I wonder."
  75. [01:50] <@flibbyjibbits> "Have you ever heard the name 'Ralan?' I might doubt that you have, but just on the off chance?.."
  76. [01:51] <Eltrotraw> "Doesn't ring a bell."
  77. [01:51] <Deathfish64> "No, I don't think so."
  78. [01:51] <CommodoreJim> (did we)
  79. [01:51] <Moonside> "Hmm... nope."
  80. [01:51] <Skeleton> I think so
  81. [01:52] <@flibbyjibbits> Teyo may have mentioned the name when he was going on about the different generals, you might be able to recall
  82. [01:53] <@flibbyjibbits> {<flibbyjibbits> "well, hey, just don't tell anyone I'm how you found out, huh. I don't want tog et in trouble with Ralan. " , with regards to him talking about what xetan does }
  83. [01:54] <@flibbyjibbits> im gonna hit the bathroom real quick, sorry
  84. [01:54] <Moonside> "Ah, wait... I think... yeah, might have heard his name. I have no idea who he is or what he does, though."
  85. [01:55] <Skeleton> "I got an inkling"
  86. [01:55] <Skeleton> "I think maaaaybe... get ready... he's an Order member?"
  87. [01:56] <CommodoreJim> (No way Freddie tha'ts bullshit. You're retarded and you don't even know)
  88. [01:57] <Skeleton> Freddie's stroke of clairvoyance has left the room dumbstruck I see
  89. [01:57] <Moonside> There's no way Freddie could have know that. He secretly asked it to the ball!
  90. [01:58] <Eltrotraw> nah, Tombs is just scowling and keeping to himself
  91. [01:58] <Eltrotraw> he don't like order
  92. [01:58] <@flibbyjibbits> "Yes, you would be right. Now, I am often left 'out of the loop' on such things, but I think that someone you encountered may have been one of his agents, under the guise of someone in Zulban's group."
  93. [01:59] <CommodoreJim> "Any idea on what the 'ZRT' on the note stands for?"
  94. [01:59] <@flibbyjibbits> "I know that you've met Zulban, Idrian, and myself, and you've heard of Xetan, and are likely at least aware of Baldan, the head of our religion, but most people don't understand what Ralan does. I'll get to that, question in a moment, sir knight."
  95. [01:59] <Skeleton> Zero Real Tits
  96. [02:00] <Moonside> Everyone's name ends with "an".
  97. [02:00] <Deathfish64> Zulban Ralan Trust
  98. [02:00] <Moonside> "Why do all of your names end with 'an'?"
  99. [02:00] <Skeleton> All order members' names do.
  100. [02:01] <Skeleton> Oh I thought you were OOC asking Flib
  101. [02:01] <@flibbyjibbits> "Ralan is the leader of what we call the secret spoke of our order, the part that watches the other parts, so he isn't really known to most of the public. I think it might've been him that you saw in the void there. And, lady, our names are changed to fit the tradition when we're inducted to our positions."
  102. [02:02] <Eltrotraw> "'Secret spoke'? So how many heads do you really got leading the whole thing?"
  103. [02:02] <Moonside> "Hmm, so like internal affairs. Interesting. To the two things."
  104. [02:02] <@flibbyjibbits> "Before I became the high alchemist and head of all civil services, my name was 'Falreth,', but we adopt -an endings as a show of our loyalty."
  105. [02:03] <CommodoreJim> I knew it, Zulballs!
  106. [02:03] <CommodoreJim> His true name revealed!
  107. [02:04] <Moonside> "Wait, there's something else I don't get... why are you here in the first place?"
  108. [02:04] <@flibbyjibbits> "Theres just six. At least I hope there is, since more would imply further secrecy beyond even the secrecy already involved. I cover the day to day life and services such as hospitals and trade, Zulban is in charge of law and order, and, hopefully it wont be needed, an army, Idrian is our diplomat and also leads the mages, Beldan is the head of the church, Xetan is the informations agent,...
  109. [02:04] <@flibbyjibbits> ...and Ralan keeps track of us all."
  110. [02:05] <@flibbyjibbits> "Oh, I've been a friend of the Rakor family, and of Telmar, for decades. I'm quite sad to see the last of them die, even though the last I saw of his blood was his father at the same age."
  111. [02:06] <Moonside> "...so you're not here as a member of the Order."
  112. [02:07] <@flibbyjibbits> "No, no, just as a guest. Idrian is the one who is actually here on business. Before you got here, Telmar and I were just talking about how we could've tried to make an alchemical copy of the late king or perhaps try to bring him back to life, but I'm afraid that is not possible with our mortal means. Too far gone."
  113. [02:07] * CommodoreJim|2 ([email protected]) has joined #adventure2
  114. [02:08] <CommodoreJim|2> [22:05:50] <Moonside> "...so you're not here as a member of the Order."
  115. [02:08] <CommodoreJim|2> I miss anything?
  116. [02:08] * CommodoreJim ([email protected]) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
  117. [02:08] <Moonside> [02:07] <@flibbyjibbits> "No, no, just as a guest. Idrian is the one who is actually here on business. Before you got here, Telmar and I were just talking about how we could've tried to make an alchemical copy of the late king or perhaps try to bring him back to life, but I'm afraid that is not possible with our mortal means. Too far gone."
  118. [02:08] <Eltrotraw> [22:07] flibbyjibbits "No, no, just as a guest. Idrian is the one who is actually here on business. Before you got here, Telmar and I were just talking about how we could've tried to make an alchemical copy of the late king or perhaps try to bring him back to life, but I'm afraid that is not possible with our mortal means. Too far gone."
  119. [02:08] <Moonside> Isn't Resurrection a thing?
  120. [02:08] <CommodoreJim|2> I cringe visibly at the idea of bringing the king back in such a manner.
  121. [02:08] <Skeleton> "Aww."
  122. [02:09] <Skeleton> "Necromancy is kinda creepy anyway..."
  123. [02:09] <@flibbyjibbits> it is, but people under level 17 cant do it easily or after a few hours after the death
  124. [02:09] <@flibbyjibbits> unless you want to let a druid turn him into a rabbit
  125. [02:09] <Skeleton> Ooh, rabbit king.
  126. [02:10] <@flibbyjibbits> *alchemists can do it at like level 15 but it requires obscenely rare magical reagents
  127. [02:10] <Moonside> "Hmm. So... what next?"
  128. [02:11] <@flibbyjibbits> Telmar picks up and shakes the bird cage a little bit, "While you were out on your trip, I did a little research of my own, and something one of you said reminded me of it."
  129. [02:11] <Deathfish64> "Give us the scoop."
  130. [02:13] <Skeleton> Pikkup West, photojournalist.
  131. [02:14] <@flibbyjibbits> "Well, you mentioned that the elemental you faced in Lenima, which Falkan had also mentioned to me, had a crystal ball in its chest, right? The site around it had a similar pedestal to the one found in the tunnels below this castle, didn't it?"
  132. [02:14] <Eltrotraw> "What're ya playin' at?"
  133. [02:15] <Skeleton> Gotta collect all 7 and open the thousand-year door and kill the shadaloo queen
  134. [02:16] <Deathfish64> "It did."
  135. [02:17] <@flibbyjibbits> "Well, I believe these may be related to an old legend, of the, I think they were called the prophet orbs, I belive, though I could be wrong on that. Very long ago, around the time of the war that formed this kingdom, there was a group of mages, each the master of one school of magic, and they placed thier souls into crystal balls, to preserve their knowledge for the future."
  136. [02:18] <Eltrotraw> ("were there also HOT BABES trapped inside the crystals?")
  137. [02:18] <@flibbyjibbits> "Naturally, these are incredibly magically powerful, such that there would be some who might try to use them as a power source for great magical acts, typically summonings."
  138. [02:18] <Eltrotraw> ("HOT MAGICAL BABES?!")
  139. [02:19] <Moonside> "...that one didn't turn out very well, though."
  140. [02:20] <Deathfish64> "It's a shame that one ended up buried in molten glass, then..."
  141. [02:20] <Skeleton> Great magical acts, Batman!
  142. [02:21] <Eltrotraw> "Maybe that's why she wanted to know so much about it," Tombs mutters to himself
  143. [02:22] <CommodoreJim|2> I wince with an audible "Grrrk..." at the mention of the melty blood.
  144. [02:22] <@flibbyjibbits> Falkan : "No, it didn't, but I think Zulban was going to try to retrieve that one with explosives. See, I don't know what religion you follow, but as you are likely aware by now, our order in Nethu is a theocracy. PRimarily, we follow an old prophecy, the origins of which are so far back in time that we can't really say when or where it came from, but the orbs related to it. The mages...
  145. [02:22] <@flibbyjibbits> ...that created them were fully aware of it, or at least more than any other living being was. Nobody knows all of it, though some such as Beldan, Zulban, and Ralan know more than most. "
  146. [02:23] <@flibbyjibbits> "You see, the major part of it is that events mostly follow an 800 year cycle. Things tend to occur similarly every turn of the wheel. Someone might try to collect these to learn more about this to try to manipulate events for their benefit."
  147. [02:24] <Moonside> "And it's been 800 years since that thing with the dragon and King Rakor..."
  148. [02:25] <Moonside> (it's 800 years right)
  149. [02:25] <Skeleton> "How peculiar"
  150. [02:25] <@flibbyjibbits> "It has. What is relevant to your journey, though, is one of what we call the 'tokens.' These are sort of the instances of events that always occur, though the specifics can vary. This one is called the 'grim regent,' and I think you can figure out what it means."
  151. [02:27] <Eltrotraw> "So basically, you think we're goin' to be startin' a new cycle here."
  152. [02:27] <Skeleton> All the world's indeed a stage and we are merely players, performer and portrayers
  153. [02:29] <@flibbyjibbits> "I think so. Ralan might think this, too, which is why he, erm, 'bought'" he fingerquotes, "Your investigation files. He might also have been thinking of it as a payment for something you've done, or might have been planning to do it. Someone you talked to must have been one of his agents. I can not fathom who, though he does tend to employ the strangest of fellows."
  154. [02:29] <Eltrotraw> "Wonderful."
  155. [02:29] <Eltrotraw> His voice drips sarcasm
  156. [02:30] <Skeleton> "So... is it our destiny to break the time loop and save the universe??"
  157. [02:30] <Moonside> Elly has been silent this whole time, but she gets interested upon hearing "save the universe".
  158. [02:31] <@flibbyjibbits> "I don't, myself, understand too much of it. I think that, for now, you should try to find your lost friend. I'll stay here, for now, to try to think of what I've forgotten."
  159. [02:32] <Eltrotraw> (lost friend being Luce, or..?)
  160. [02:32] <Moonside> Well, yeah.
  161. [02:32] <CommodoreJim|2> I nod. "Yes, sir."
  162. [02:32] <Moonside> "Alright.
  163. [02:32] <Skeleton> Warty Morty isn't lost!!
  164. [02:32] <@flibbyjibbits> who else would he be refering to
  165. [02:32] <CommodoreJim|2> He's not lost, he's in his grave where we left him
  166. [02:33] <Deathfish64> "Okeydokey."
  167. [02:33] <Moonside> "...alright."
  168. [02:33] <Eltrotraw> (he could be referring to urist, in our quest to revive his soul to come back from being t-posed for life)
  169. [02:33] <Moonside> Pffft.
  170. [02:33] <Moonside> "Well, let's get going, then."
  171. [02:34] <Skeleton> Freddie plans to leave a new note on his door. 'Out saving the universe. Out of respect, don't rob my house! P.S. Look at me now, mom and dad. Tough love you, too.'
  172. [02:36] <@flibbyjibbits> "Now, I believe that our kind order has promised to aid you in whatever way is possible, in your investigation? Well, I also would like to make the same pledge, as a person. In a few days, assuming you stay for the funeral, I'll be able to prepare something that I think might help you out, especially if you're hoping to have an audience with Xetan. Uh, also, would you prefer if I not bring...
  173. [02:36] <@flibbyjibbits> ...up this meeting with my weekly correspondence with Zulban and Idrian? I am sort of getting the feeling that you might not be too fond of them. "
  174. [02:36] <CommodoreJim|2> "...I need a drink." I mutter. "Ah, that would be preffered, thank you."
  175. [02:37] <Moonside> "...yeah, not too fond of them... something like that."
  176. [02:37] <Deathfish64> "Mostly Zulban I think, but yeah okay."
  177. [02:37] <Skeleton> "One of 'em scares me, one of them violated my brain."
  178. [02:39] <@flibbyjibbits> he laughs a little bit, but cuts off, "Oh, I bet she tried yes. Shes a bit too young to be able to responsibly handle that sort of magical aptitude, in my opinion, but far be it from my role to deny her of it."
  179. [02:40] <CommodoreJim|2> Well, she sure hates when she finds out about sexytimes via it
  180. [02:41] <@flibbyjibbits> Telmar claps his hands again and stands up. He seems to be in quite an elevated mood, possibly because of his old friend's presence, "Now, it is getting a bit late in the day, so I'll go have the castle workers pepare some supper for us. Uh, do you all have somewhere to stay? I forget who among you is actually from here."
  181. [02:42] <CommodoreJim|2> "I'm...really not looking forward to the bunkers, but yes, I suppose I do."
  182. [02:42] <Deathfish64> You know, I have no idea where Pikkup is from
  183. [02:42] <Moonside> "Yeah, I guess I can stay at my sister's house." Elly smiles at Lotte.
  184. [02:42] <Skeleton> "Anyone who doesn't, I've got a...pad."
  185. [02:42] <Deathfish64> But not here
  186. [02:42] <Eltrotraw> "D'you have somewhere for us to stay?"
  187. [02:42] <Skeleton> "One bed though. Better than none!"
  188. [02:42] <CommodoreJim|2> I grumble under my breath. I enjoy being a guard, but the beds suck
  189. [02:42] <Deathfish64> "I was expecting to just find a decent-looking inn."
  190. [02:43] <@flibbyjibbits> "No, no, you're technically royal agents now, aren't you? You've got the rings for it. "
  191. [02:44] <CommodoreJim|2> we gots da bling
  192. [02:45] <@flibbyjibbits> "There are quarters for those of such stature here in the castle. Uh. Somewhere. It has been a while since we've had anyone in this position. Thirty years, was it, Falkan?" "I Think thirty five. Investigations of foul play in the royal sporting competitions." "Right then, yes. The rooms might be a bit dusrty."
  193. [02:45] <@flibbyjibbits> dusty
  194. [02:45] <CommodoreJim|2> "...That...sounds favorable." I say.
  195. [02:48] <Deathfish64> "Oh, good."
  196. [02:48] <@flibbyjibbits> Falkan takes another swig of his pocket flask, "Maybe they should just use the regular guest rooms, then, since the beds and sheets'r probably fallen to dust by now. Not likely much'vem left. The guest rooms are nice, though. What are there of'm,? Eight, right? Yes, I think eight. Thats, uh, me, Idrian, then thats six left, uh, thats good, right?"
  197. [02:48] <Skeleton> Freddie looks at the flask and wonders what's in it
  198. [02:49] <Deathfish64> condensed alchemy
  199. [02:50] <@flibbyjibbits> well, he is a decently high leveled alchemist
  200. [02:52] <@flibbyjibbits> Telmar begins to head down the stairs and then shouts up that everyone should head down since theres already a dinner starting to be served in the main hall
  201. [02:52] <Moonside> Oh, Lotte and Elly go down, then.
  202. [02:52] <CommodoreJim|2> Dinner! I follow.
  203. [02:53] <Skeleton> Freddie doesn't take orders from dickheads!
  204. [02:53] <Skeleton> But he goes down on his own free will.
  205. [02:53] <Moonside> As soon as they leave the room: E: "Heeey, siiiiiis..." L: "Oh, that tone... what is it?" E: "...can I go too?"
  206. [02:53] <Eltrotraw> Dinner with DEATH
  207. [02:55] <Deathfish64> foodfood
  208. [02:56] <Moonside> L: "No! Of course not. It's too dangerous!" E: "But siiiiis, you're going to save the universe!" L: "No one said that. And we almost died three times already! This is not the sort of thing I want for you!" E: "Awwww..." Then, she turns towards Drom. "Mr. Drominus! Can I go?" Lotte sighs upon hearing this.
  209. [02:57] <Skeleton> You're gonna save the uuniverrrrse, the elf said soooo
  210. [02:57] <Deathfish64> And the elf is a wizard so he should know
  211. [02:58] <Skeleton> pff freddie donno shit
  212. [02:59] <CommodoreJim|2> "I'm afraid I have to side with Lady Charlotte here. I've had years of experience, and I've nearly died twice so far. You need more experience. I hate to sound like a broken record, and I know I hated hearing this sort of thing when I was in training, but..." I shake my head. "I cannot reccomend this path."
  213. [03:00] <Skeleton> "I've got no experience and evaded death with zest and zeal, every time. It's been pretty bomb"
  214. [03:00] <CommodoreJim|2> I flash Freddie a glare.
  215. [03:01] <Eltrotraw> ("Everyone's a hero...")
  216. [03:01] <Moonside> E: "...:(" Elly's face is now akin to that of a hurt puppy.
  217. [03:02] <CommodoreJim|2> I feel awful now.
  218. [03:02] <Skeleton> Freddie sympathizes
  219. [03:02] <CommodoreJim|2> But I really am just worried about what could happen.
  220. [03:02] <Deathfish64> I butt int the conversation with an "I'm just in it to see the creatures of the world, but even I admit that studying monsters is dangerous."
  221. [03:02] <Deathfish64> into*
  222. [03:03] <@flibbyjibbits> just today pikkup saw a future mauling victim in the streets
  223. [03:04] <Deathfish64> He was mean
  224. [03:04] <Deathfish64> Deserves it
  225. [03:05] <Deathfish64> I had a hard time deciding not to try and knock him out and free the dragon
  226. [03:06] <@flibbyjibbits> at any reate
  227. [03:07] <Deathfish64> In fact, I should add "It also takes emotional control. Just today I saw some street merchant cruelly using a caged dragon as a guinea pig for his potions, and jabbing it with his cane. I had to hold myself back from trying to free the poor little thing."
  228. [03:07] <@flibbyjibbits> are you all heading to the meal hall, or are some people going to loiter in the library, or maybe head back out into the city, or what
  229. [03:07] <Deathfish64> I'll go to the meal hall
  230. [03:07] <Moonside> "..." Elly seems to be genuinely sad, so Lotte hugs her. "Elly... this is just because I love you. I don't want to see you get hurt, even if you're stronger than me... you know that, right?" E: "...what, that I'm stronger than you?" The two of them chuckle lightly. E: "...yeah, I know. I love you too, sis." She goes back to smiling a little. L: "Alright! Now, let's go have some dinner, hm? I'm pretty hungry."
  231. [03:07] <Skeleton> I read 'I'm going to Real Hell'
  232. [03:07] <Moonside> Meat hall.
  233. [03:07] <Skeleton> "Food? Drinks? Drinks?"
  234. [03:07] <CommodoreJim|2> I'm headed to the meal hall. I feel a bit better after that exchange, but still a bit sad.
  235. [03:08] <CommodoreJim|2> MEAAAAAT
  236. [03:08] <@flibbyjibbits> god damn
  237. [03:08] <@flibbyjibbits> i am rerolling these food checks
  238. [03:08] <CommodoreJim|2> I'll hit a bar afterwards because fuckin' funerals, man
  239. [03:08] <Deathfish64> No comments on Pikkup's worldview?
  240. [03:08] <Deathfish64> I guess the party is just used to him by now
  241. [03:08] <@flibbyjibbits> everyone got either a 20 or a 15 this time, much better
  242. [03:08] <Eltrotraw> can we rolloh
  243. [03:09] <Moonside> (screw pikkup, sisterly love)
  244. [03:09] <@flibbyjibbits> [my first roll cyce, only freddie rolled above a 3, which wouldnt quite make sense for yknow the goddamn royal castle]
  245. [03:09] <Moonside> Why can't we all just take 20 then?
  246. [03:09] <Skeleton> Mmmmm :d
  247. [03:09] <@flibbyjibbits> well i rolled 20 15 16 20 18 20
  248. [03:09] <Skeleton> Better than Mom used to make. You guys, well.
  249. [03:09] <@flibbyjibbits> so yeah pretty much
  250. [03:09] <Deathfish64> (I'll show you "sisterly love")
  251. [03:10] <@flibbyjibbits> the 15 was for lotte, the 16 for elly, the 18 for drom
  252. [03:10] <@flibbyjibbits> everyone else got a 20
  253. [03:10] <Deathfish64> "Much better than that time the cheese melted on the table."
  254. [03:10] <CommodoreJim|2> Lotte's food is always the worst
  255. [03:10] <Skeleton> "This food. Is food fit for... heroes."
  256. [03:10] <Skeleton> She's just picky as hell
  257. [03:10] <CommodoreJim|2> I set my helmet on the table as I poke at my dinner.
  258. [03:11] <@flibbyjibbits> 15 is still 25% better than average
  259. [03:11] <Moonside> "Well, this is... better than the things I've eaten in the past few days."
  260. [03:12] <CommodoreJim|2> "...good stuff." I mutter.
  261. [03:12] <Moonside> Elly is just eating silently, trying to figure out the recipe and ingredients.
  262. [03:13] <Deathfish64> (She should come along as our personal chef)
  263. [03:14] <Eltrotraw> do we have our own airship or something
  264. [03:14] <Deathfish64> We're heroes, man
  265. [03:14] <Deathfish64> We should have these things
  266. [03:14] <Moonside> Airships are mid to endgame, though.
  267. [03:14] <@flibbyjibbits> i dont think anyones ever gotten an airship at level 4
  268. [03:15] <@flibbyjibbits> except maybe like cecil kinda had one
  269. [03:15] <Eltrotraw> oh but that will come later
  270. [03:16] <Deathfish64> ff III had airships really early
  271. [03:16] <Moonside> Yeah, but they suck.
  272. [03:16] <Deathfish64> But then that one blows up
  273. [03:16] <Deathfish64> But then you get a shipship
  274. [03:16] <Moonside> The one that's cool, the Invincible, is like super endgame or something.
  275. [03:17] <CommodoreJim|2> Man when do we get our smaller stuff? I have a drawing to give the lady
  276. [03:17] <@flibbyjibbits> in the morning
  277. [03:18] <Moonside> (yeah, screw Melange)
  278. [03:19] <CommodoreJim|2> (I remembered when the horses were coming, jeeeeeze)
  279. [03:19] <Deathfish64> It's all coming together
  280. [03:19] <CommodoreJim|2> (Does my horse still make Lotte turn beet red by the way :Y)
  281. [03:19] <Moonside> (no)
  282. [03:20] <Moonside> So we eat the foods, and then...
  283. [03:20] <@flibbyjibbits> maybe hed to to sleep, idunno
  284. [03:20] <CommodoreJim|2> I stand up and head out for a quick drink. Because FUNFERALS.
  285. [03:20] <@flibbyjibbits> its sort of late
  286. [03:20] <Skeleton> Can't spell funeral
  287. [03:20] <Skeleton> without FUN
  288. [03:21] <@flibbyjibbits> Falkan did come down to the meal for a few minutes, with Idrian, and then they bothleft not too long after
  289. [03:22] <Moonside> I guess Lotte and Elly are going home for the night, then. L: "Bye, guys. I'll meet you here tomorrow." E: "Bye! It was nice to meet you all!"
  290. [03:22] <@flibbyjibbits> a castle attendent is available to lead people up to the guest rooms who want to stay there. they're pretty nice, large, private rooms, enough that each person who wanted to could have their own there
  291. [03:22] <@flibbyjibbits> http://i.imgur.com/svXAG.gif
  292. [03:22] <Deathfish64> Do the rooms come with red pandas?
  293. [03:23] <Moonside> They come with red dingos.
  294. [03:23] <Deathfish64> Noooo
  295. [03:23] <Skeleton> "She seemed nice. Well, nicer than most of the girls I've met on this adventure"
  296. [03:23] <@flibbyjibbits> no, but for some reason i felt like the gif was sort of related, maybe was thinking of how elly wanted to join the party
  297. [03:23] <CommodoreJim|2> I wave goodbye. "Catch you both later..."
  298. [03:23] <CommodoreJim|2> I then go for a maximum of two drinks
  299. [03:23] <Skeleton> "Drom I'm thirsty too wait"
  300. [03:24] <Moonside> Well, I guess it sort of makes sense.
  301. [03:24] <@flibbyjibbits> drink rolls for drom 8, then 1
  302. [03:24] <@flibbyjibbits> 2, 7 freddie assuming he also had 2
  303. [03:25] <Moonside> It's that shitty drink Lotte got in Tholest.
  304. [03:25] <Skeleton> Damn.
  305. [03:25] <CommodoreJim|2> Oh shit.
  306. [03:25] <CommodoreJim|2> :U
  307. [03:25] <Skeleton> I should be used to this stuff man
  308. [03:25] <@flibbyjibbits> neither at this point failed a roll vs drunkenness, so youre both fine
  309. [03:25] <CommodoreJim|2> Okay cool
  310. [03:25] <Skeleton> Whoa really
  311. [03:25] <Skeleton> How is a 1 not
  312. [03:25] <Deathfish64> It's booze from a trough filled with whatever was left in the other customer's crinks
  313. [03:25] <Deathfish64> drinks*
  314. [03:26] <CommodoreJim|2> "Eurmahzah, this is awful"
  315. [03:26] <CommodoreJim|2> "Freddie is yours awful too"
  316. [03:26] <Skeleton> "This stuff is weak. I could replace water with this and live to be a thousand"
  317. [03:27] <CommodoreJim|2> "It should be illegal to charge money for this"
  318. [03:28] <CommodoreJim|2> Well, I'm ready for next day whenever
  319. [03:28] <Moonside> Yeah, me too.
  320. [03:28] <Skeleton> "I'm cultured, not picky"
  321. [03:28] <Deathfish64> yeah
