  1. [21:55] * [Mode]GM Night in the wastelands, a time when everyone is careful to watch their backs. More people disappear into the darkness than anything else, never to be seen again. This is a harsh fact of life that all have come to deal with in this unforgiving badland they're forced to live in. Everyone, except those that matter. This is about them, not about the harshness of the wilds for the peasantry.
  2. [21:55] * [Mode]GM Let us join our cast now...
  3. [21:54] <[Dune]Iniuria> Filia~!
  4. [21:54] * [Dune]Iniuria is beaming, happy to see the Terminator-maid again.
  5. [21:56] <[Mode]Aileen> I'm hungry, you guys!
  6. [21:56] * [Mode]Aileen her voice bellows through the prison PA system once again, happy to have such a convenient tool at her disposal. All she has to do is sit and wait for a response.
  7. [21:58] * [kiri]Takenaba grumbles. He's doing his daily bodybuilding routine in his room, with only his boxers on.
  8. [21:58] * [Gtz]Filia acknowledges Iniuria with a glance, Before heeding the call of the Master.
  9. [21:58] <[kiri]Takenaba> Gah! I hate this new toy of hers!
  10. [22:00] * [kiri]Takenaba grab his showering gear and rush to the nearest shower room. Trying to stay hidden from the fellow meido's eyes.
  11. [22:00] * [Dune]Iniuria rushes up to Filia and walks beside her, so that she can help preform her duties (and just walk beside her).
  12. [22:04] * [Gtz]Filia simply goes to the kitchen and begins preparing dinner. If the Master is already there, all the better. If she is not, surely she will detect the scent and quickly arrive to have it.
  13. [22:04] * [Mode]Aileen sits back on the beaten up chair positioned nearby, and kicks off the console, spinning herself around in the chair to pass the time. After a couple rotations, she notices something strange on the security monitors, and catches herself.
  14. [22:05] * [Mode]GM the monitors show a lone figure milling around outside the complex, within the exterior gates, but still outside of the building proper. It's not unusual to see someone around the front of this large building, but within the perimeter?
  15. [22:06] * [kiri]Takenaba take a quick shower while humming "Kung-fu fighting".
  16. [22:06] * [Dune]Iniuria starts quietly helping with dinner, fetching cooking utensils and ingredients from lower cabinets and shelves to give to aid Filia.
  17. [22:06] * [Mode]Aileen picks up the PA mic once again and clicks it on, the buzz from the speakers filling the air.
  18. [22:06] <[Mode]Aileen> Someone's inside the fence. Anyone free, go look into that, will you?
  19. [22:07] * [Gtz]Filia looks to Iniuria.
  20. [22:07] * [Dune]Iniuria looks to Filia.
  21. [22:07] * [kiri]Takenaba dressed in his (oh god damn I hate these) maid outfit.
  22. [22:08] <[Gtz]Filia> Wait here.
  23. [22:08] * [Gtz]Filia turns, but before leaving, says:
  24. [22:08] <[Gtz]Filia> I'll be back.
  25. [22:09] * [Dune]Iniuria is a tiny bit surprised by Filia's suddenness and is also slightly worried, but nods and consents...reluctantly.
  26. [22:10] * [Mode]Aileen her duty complete so far, she stands up from the chair and stretches. As much as she loves the easy life around here, she can't spend all the day sitting around, she's got important business to take care of, like making sure everyone else is fulfilling her wishes to the letter.
  27. [22:10] * [kiri]Takenaba runs along to the front gate. fulfilling the duty to the letter.
  28. [22:10] * [Dune]Iniuria speaks one comment before letting Filia depart, however:
  29. [22:10] <[Dune]Iniuria> ...Come back safe, alright?
  30. [22:11] * [kiri]Takenaba arrives at the door, but looks into the surveillance camera first to identify the guest.
  31. [22:11] * [Mode]Aileen also has the intention of scoping out the recent haul of goods and appropriating anything of value as first pick. With the prospect of new treasure on her mind, she skips out of her room and heads towards the storage room the load was stored away in.
  32. [22:13] * [Tesla]Alexia is wandering around, observing the building while moving about in front of it.
  33. [22:13] <[Mode]Aileen> Hmm, there was an android in that box, wasn't there? Maybe I should start her up and have her help out around here...
  34. [22:13] * [Gtz]Filia looks back for a moment, before leaving at a brisk pace. She arms herself with the AK-74 they relinquished earlier, as well as keeping a M1911 in her apron pocket and a M79 slung over her shoulder. Locked and loaded.
  35. [22:14] * [Mode]GM the security display shows a woman wandering around slightly within the front area of the prioson perimeter. Aside from these basic bits of information, it's too dark to make out anything more.
  36. [22:15] <[kiri]Takenaba> Duh? Woman? at night? Not a good sign.
  37. [22:16] * [kiri]Takenaba place his hand on his revolver. And use his left hand to slightly opens the door.
  38. [22:16] <[kiri]Takenaba> Anything you need?
  39. [22:17] * [Gtz]Filia arrives at the scene, pupils faintly red in the failing light.
  40. [22:17] * [Dune]Iniuria continues working on dinner, still worried a bit and fidgeting with her large ribbon.
  41. [22:18] * [Tesla]Alexia notices the second person, and moves around a corner to get a closer look while remaining unseen.
  42. [22:20] * [Mode]Aileen eventually reaches the storeroom and pushes the door open, busted bolt doens't really help it much, but it's not like anyone can really get into this place. Well... aside from whoever that was on the monitor... Well, they should be able to deal with it. She clicks on the light for the room and walks over to the large box housing the android they picked up earlier and pulls the lid open.
  43. [22:20] * [Tesla]Alexia then notices the third, and her hand inches to the back of her dress. Probably not best, but just in case.
  44. [22:20] <[Mode]Aileen> Now then... how would I turn this thing on...
  45. [22:21] * [Gtz]Filia speaks to Takenaba.
  46. [22:21] <[Gtz]Filia> Where is the problem?
  47. [22:22] * [huh]Reliqua doesn't seem too helpful.
  48. [22:23] * [Mode]Aileen looks over the front of the thing to see if there's any clear way to turn it on. Come to think of it, Filia is something like a robot, right? Iniuria too. How did they get activated? Or, Ini was already active, but Filia? Ah man...
  49. [22:24] * [Mode]Aileen through her fidgeting, Aileen nearly causes the entire box to fall over, but she catches it and by extension, keeps the inactive android from falling flat on her inactive face.
  50. [22:24] <[Mode]Aileen> Whoo, hate to break this thing before it gets powered up...
  51. [22:24] <[kiri]Takenaba> I dunno. Just see someone out there. Or rather, 'something'. Should go take a look.
  52. [22:25] * [Dune]Iniuria continues cooking dinner, managing to do so with the assistance of a stool. So far, things seem to be going alright although the meal probably won't be anything godly good.
  53. [22:26] * [Dune]Iniuria 's cooking isn't terrible, though, and so it should still be at least a little tasty.
  54. [22:28] * [Gtz]Filia steps out to look, without any sort of mortal fear.
  55. [22:30] * [kiri]Takenaba pull out his colt python, one-handed. Like a fucking Saeba Ryo.
  56. [22:30] <[kiri]Takenaba> Gotchaback.
  57. [22:30] * [Mode]Aileen toys with the inactive android a bit more, ultimately getting frustrated with lack of progress. Things like this should come with a manual, seriously. She steps up to the android and grabs it's head, shaking it slightly, or as slightly as her human arms can move stiff robotics.
  58. [22:30] <[Mode]Aileen> Turn on already!
  59. [22:31] * [Gtz]Filia 's eyes flare bright red, momentarily, before the entire eye burns white, acting as a sort of flashlight for the vision-dependent Operator in the vicinity. Filia casts this light on Alexia, and quickly raises her gun, ready to shoot at the slightest gesture.
  60. [22:32] * [kiri]Takenaba follows Filia, covering her flank and look for another intruder, if any.
  61. [22:32] <[Gtz]Filia> Intruder. Identify yourself, or be terminated.
  62. [22:33] * [Tesla]Alexia is momentarily blinded and doesn't move, stunned.
  63. [22:33] <[kiri]Takenaba> DOWN ON THE GROUND! HANDS ABOVE YOUR HEAD!
  64. [22:34] * [Tesla]Alexia , after looking away for a couple seconds, composes herself, and then rests herself on her knees while putting her hands behind her head. She smiles.
  65. [22:35] <[Tesla]Alexia> So, do you want my name, what I'm doing here, or my profession?
  66. [22:35] * [Dune]Iniuria continues with her cooking, but her mind keeps partially with the new intruder... Hopefully things aren't going badly.
  67. [22:35] <[kiri]Takenaba> Sorry. No time for chitchat. Gotta do my work, hon.
  68. [22:36] * [Gtz]Filia tones it down, but stays mechanically serious
  69. [22:38] * [huh]Reliqua seems to respond to the voice. Deep inside, a mechanical whirring begins. Gears still for centuries shake off their torpor and jump to life. Circuits flow with electricity, switches move, and motors begin their toil. Reliqua's head slowly directs itself toward Aileen.
  70. [22:38] * [kiri]Takenaba push Alexia on the ground, face first. And restraint both her arms with that straps-like thingy cops love to use on the suspect.
  71. [22:38] <[kiri]Takenaba> Done.
  72. [22:39] * [Gtz]Filia tones down her eye-beam-thingies too, but still bright enough to give visibility. She looks to Takenaba.
  73. [22:40] * [Mode]Aileen stumbles back in surprise at the sudden activity.
  74. [22:40] <[Mode]Aileen> Whoa!
  75. [22:40] <[Mode]Aileen> Hey! It does work!
  76. [22:40] * [Tesla]Alexia moves her head to the side, and looks at Takenaba before taking a look around.
  77. [22:40] * [huh]Reliqua takes hold of the sides of her crate, and stands herself up. Looking at Aileen, she asks in a calm tone,
  78. [22:40] <[Gtz]Filia> Restraint is unnecessary. Procuring dangerous weapons, however, should be taken care of before bringing her into the prison.
  79. [22:40] <[huh]Reliqua> Are you my master?
  80. [22:40] * [Dune]Iniuria continues going about her business of readying dinner alone, and sets the table for three.
  81. [22:42] <[Tesla]Alexia> Ufufu~. Okay, you got me. Now, you want me to answer questions or stay put and be quiet?
  82. [22:42] <[kiri]Takenaba> Well, We should get inside first.
  83. [22:42] * [kiri]Takenaba looks around.
  84. [22:42] <[kiri]Takenaba> You alone?
  85. [22:42] <[Gtz]Filia> She is.
  86. [22:43] <[kiri]Takenaba> I guess you do have a motion scanner? just askin'.
  87. [22:44] * [kiri]Takenaba pull Alexia up from the ground. Still positioning himself behind her back, gun pointing.
  88. [22:48] * [Mode]Aileen looks up at the now active android.
  89. [22:48] <[Mode]Aileen> Uh, yeah, that'd be me. I'm the master of this place.
  90. [22:49] <[Gtz]Filia> Are we to take her inside? My original command was to terminate all intruders. Shall this one be an exception?
  91. [22:50] <[kiri]Takenaba> I'll take her in. Monitor for any more intruder in the vicinity, Fil.
  92. [22:50] * [huh]Reliqua bows, fully.
  93. [22:50] <[kiri]Takenaba> and, sorry. You heard me so giddy up and move. Choo choo.
  94. [22:50] * [kiri]Takenaba use his gun to poke Alexis' side.
  95. [22:51] * [Tesla]Alexia , who had been eying Filia, turns back to look at Takenaba.
  96. [22:51] <[Tesla]Alexia> Well, where's the door?
  97. [22:52] * [kiri]Takenaba just sigh, and drag Alexia inside. Leaving Filia behind to scan the area.
  98. [22:52] <[huh]Reliqua> I am a domicile care and management ancillary machine. Reliqua, is my name. It's nice to meet you.
  99. [22:54] <[Mode]Aileen> Uh, yeah, nice to meet you too. Reliqua you say your name is?
  100. [22:56] <[huh]Reliqua> Reliqua, yes.
  101. [22:57] <[Mode]Aileen> Yeah...
  102. [22:57] * [Mode]Aileen puffs herself up a bit, trying to look more composed than she had been.
  103. [22:57] * [huh]Reliqua nods, her eyes flickering, then suddenly collapses.
  104. [22:57] <[Mode]Aileen> Right then, since you seem to get the basics of- What.
  105. [22:57] <[Mode]Aileen> Aw come on, don't tell me she's junk after all!
  106. [22:58] * [kiri]Takenaba , before getting inside, yell at Filia.
  107. [22:59] <[huh]Reliqua> I-I'm sorry, I- ....where am I?
  108. [22:59] * [huh]Reliqua looks around from the floor.
  109. [22:59] <[kiri]Takenaba> Get back inside when you're done, 'kay?!
  110. [22:59] <[Tesla]Alexia> Aw, come on, you're mussing up my shoes. Can't I walk or something?
  111. [23:00] <[Mode]Aileen> Uh, you're at the Alan Marcus Max security prison. My maids and I found you during an... expedition and brought you back.
  112. [23:00] <[huh]Reliqua> They... they shut me off then.
  113. [23:01] <[kiri]Takenaba> Ey, sure. Lighten my load a little.
  114. [23:01] * [huh]Reliqua rises and assumes a kneeling position.
  115. [23:01] <[Mode]Aileen> Well, uh, yeah? I'd suppose they'd have to have to store you up in a box.
  116. [23:01] <[huh]Reliqua> I'm in your debt, then. Thank you for saving me.
  117. [23:01] * [Mode]Aileen smiles a bit.
  118. [23:01] * [kiri]Takenaba just let Alexia walk, but still leave her arms restrained.
  119. [23:01] <[Mode]Aileen> Ah ha, no problem! Just part of the life, y'know.
  120. [23:02] <[Mode]Aileen> Something valuable like an android in the wasteland is a pretty big find, couldn't just let you get hauled away to wherever those guys were headed.
  121. [23:02] <[Mode]Aileen> Especially if it's still in working condition.
  122. [23:02] * [kiri]Takenaba leads his prisoner (?) to the warden's room where Aileen should be.
  123. [23:03] <[kiri]Takenaba> Ey, missy! You got a visitor!
  124. [23:03] * [kiri]Takenaba knocks the door, but no reply.
  125. [23:03] <[kiri]Takenaba> gee.
  126. [23:04] * [Mode]Aileen kneels down a little, to get closer to the same level Reliqua is at.
  127. [23:04] * [kiri]Takenaba just walk inside.
  128. [23:04] <[Mode]Aileen> Like I was saying though, you're a house keeper, right? You think you can help up keeping things running around here?
  129. [23:04] * [huh]Reliqua nods.
  130. [23:04] <[huh]Reliqua> Naturally.
  131. [23:04] * [Mode]Aileen smiles.
  132. [23:05] <[Mode]Aileen> Good, I should probably get someone to help show you around, but I didn't think to bring my loudspeaker, so come on, I'll show you where my room is. You should at least know where to find that first, you'll be heading there a lot I'd figure.
  133. [23:06] * [huh]Reliqua nods, and lets Aileen lead the way.
  134. [23:07] * [Mode]Aileen heads out of the storeroom and retraces her steps, heading along back to the wardens office she uses as her quarters.
  135. [23:07] * [kiri]Takenaba messing around the console, until he find something microphone-like.
  136. [23:07] * [kiri]Takenaba press the broadcast switch.
  137. [23:07] <[kiri]Takenaba> Hello hello one two threee..... testing testing.....
  138. [23:08] <[Mode]Aileen> By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. My name's Aileen Marcus, I'm something like a descendant of the found- Whah!
  139. [23:08] * [Mode]Aileen is surprised by the sudden activation of the PA system.
  140. [23:08] <[Mode]Aileen> Agh, someone's messing around in my room!
  141. [23:08] <[kiri]Takenaba> You're needed in the warden room, missy! We got a visitor!
  142. [23:09] * [Mode]Aileen breaks into a jog now, intent on closing the distance as quick as possible.
  143. [23:09] * [kiri]Takenaba release the button and smirk.
  144. [23:09] <[kiri]Takenaba> Well that was nifty!
  145. [23:10] * [huh]Reliqua follows, increasing her pace to keep up with Aileen.
  146. [23:11] * [Mode]Aileen a few seconds later, she reaches her room, the door still open, and finds Takenaba within, with someone unknown.
  147. [23:11] <[Mode]Aileen> Ah, so it was you, and who is this?
  148. [23:11] <[Tesla]Alexia> Tada!!!
  149. [23:11] * [kiri]Takenaba just shrugs.
  150. [23:11] * [Tesla]Alexia grins, standing tall.
  151. [23:11] * [Mode]Aileen quirks a brow at the unknown person.
  152. [23:11] <[Mode]Aileen> I'm guessing you were the one that was screwing around outside?
  153. [23:11] <[kiri]Takenaba> Someone. She's snooping around, yeah.
  154. [23:12] * [huh]Reliqua peeks in.
  155. [23:12] <[Mode]Aileen> So many new faces around here lately...
  156. [23:12] <[kiri]Takenaba> What about yours?
  157. [23:12] * [kiri]Takenaba nods at the newcomer.
  158. [23:12] <[Mode]Aileen> Eh?
  159. [23:12] * [Mode]Aileen looks back at Reliqua at the door.
  160. [23:12] <[Mode]Aileen> Oh, that's a new bot, we picked her up from today's raid.
  161. [23:13] <[kiri]Takenaba> Doho, new bot.
  162. [23:13] * [huh]Reliqua bows politely.
  163. [23:13] <[Mode]Aileen> I activated her somehow, so she's all good to go.
  164. [23:13] <[kiri]Takenaba> Now we need a couple of mad scientist and we could take over the world.
  165. [23:13] * [Mode]Aileen laughs a bit, and waves her hand around, a few sparks forming in the air.
  166. [23:13] <[Mode]Aileen> Or just enough magic, but that's not the point here.
  167. [23:14] <[kiri]Takenaba> yah. So,
  168. [23:14] * [kiri]Takenaba nudges Alexia.
  169. [23:14] <[kiri]Takenaba> Your cue, lass.
  170. [23:14] * [Mode]Aileen looks back at the one caught loitering.
  171. [23:14] <[Mode]Aileen> What were you doing inside the perimeter? Actually, how'd you even get in that far? Nothing should be able to get through the shielding.
  172. [23:15] <[Tesla]Alexia> Basically, I followed you. Figured you were interesting enough to look into after you did a job for me completely by accident.
  173. [23:16] * [kiri]Takenaba is now puzzled, but decide it's better to stay silent and watch.
  174. [23:16] <[Tesla]Alexia> So do I get to ask you something or do you want to know something else?
  175. [23:18] <[Mode]Aileen> Did a job for you?
  176. [23:20] <[Tesla]Alexia> Sure you did. That raid of yours, as a side effect I guess, took out a few people I had an appointment with. I guess it's just coincidence, but how did that happen?
  177. [23:20] <[Mode]Aileen> Uh...
  178. [23:21] <[Mode]Aileen> Random chance I suppose?
  179. [23:24] * [Gtz]Filia a few minutes after securing the perimeter, Filia returns to the kitchen.
  180. [23:24] <[Gtz]Filia> I'm back.
  181. [23:26] * [Dune]Iniuria turns around and steps down from the stool, to smile and look at Filia.
  182. [23:27] <[Tesla]Alexia> (Hm, I guess we'll go with that. So, want to know anything else? My name? Profession?)
  183. [23:27] <[Dune]Iniuria> So it went well?
  184. [23:27] <[Mode]Aileen> Uh, yeah, those would be handy to know, I guess. Name first, profession second.
  185. [23:28] * [Dune]Iniuria fidgets ever so slightly after noticing just after the fact that her statement wasn't maybe the best way of terming it.
  186. [23:28] * [Gtz]Filia sets down the AK near the table, observing Iniuria's work.
  187. [23:28] <[Dune]Iniuria> ah, rather...
  188. [23:29] <[Tesla]Alexia> My full name is Alexia Ruiz Cortines, but just Alexia will do. Pleased to meet you! As for my profession... well, I guess it's a roundabout way of saying it, but are you familiar with cartomancy, um...
  189. [23:30] * [Dune]Iniuria turns back to her work. Partially so she may finish completing it, partially so her momentary stumble of awkwardness isn't noticed.
  190. [23:30] <[Mode]Aileen> Cartomancy?
  191. [23:30] <[kiri]Takenaba> not really, nah.
  192. [23:31] * [huh]Reliqua shakes her head.
  193. [23:31] * [Dune]Iniuria speaks again to Filia as she brings pots of rice and cream peas to the table.
  194. [23:31] <[Dune]Iniuria> no one got hurt, right? It doesn't look or sound like there was any trouble, anyway...
  195. [23:32] <[Tesla]Alexia> Well, I jst use it for symbolism. See, here, look at the wing on my sleeve.
  196. [23:33] * [Tesla]Alexia turns to the side, imprinted near the top of her sleeve is the symbol for the suit of spades, as found on playing cards.
  197. [23:33] * [Mode]Aileen looks at the symbol, and scratches her chin.
  198. [23:33] * [Dune]Iniuria casts a slightly curious, slightly concerned glance at Filia as she continues on her way back to the range to bring the rest of the food to the table.
  199. [23:33] <[Mode]Aileen> I don't really get it.
  200. [23:34] * [Gtz]Filia doesn't look at Iniuria, rather speaking while paying attention to the meal, setting whatever may not be set.
  201. [23:34] <[Gtz]Filia> There was an intruder. Operator Takenaba decided to to bring her in alive, so she wasn't terminated, as per prior orders.
  202. [23:34] <[huh]Reliqua> Could you explain more thoroughly?
  203. [23:34] <[Tesla]Alexia> The symbol has different connotations when it comes to fortunetelling with it. Intellect, education, air, other things... but most importantly, death. That's me.
  204. [23:35] <[kiri]Takenaba> So you're kinda like a hired guns, huh?
  205. [23:35] * [Dune]Iniuria relaxes a bit.
  206. [23:35] * [Tesla]Alexia shakes her head.
  207. [23:35] <[Dune]Iniuria> Ah, that's good...
  208. [23:35] <[Tesla]Alexia> No, you're missing the point. I don't deal in death in the usual sense... well, I guess the simplest thing would be to think of me as a personification of it.
  209. [23:36] <[huh]Reliqua> Huh?
  210. [23:36] <[Gtz]Filia> The meal seems to be appropriate for the master.
  211. [23:36] <[kiri]Takenaba> More of that supernatural mumbo-jumbo crap, I guess.
  212. [23:36] * [Dune]Iniuria returns to the table once more with a plate of ration steaks. Prepared just right though (as they have), they can taste like something decently good.
  213. [23:36] <[Tesla]Alexia> Don't tell me you actually believed all that junk about a skull and a scythe.
  214. [23:37] <[kiri]Takenaba> I'm a science guy, myself. I don't really believe in this kinda stuffs.
  215. [23:37] <[huh]Reliqua> ...Skull and scythe?
  216. [23:37] * [Dune]Iniuria nods.
  217. [23:37] <[Dune]Iniuria> I think so, too.
  218. [23:37] * [Gtz]Filia continues to avoid eye contact, shuffling through various items and ingredients in the kitchen, until picking out a few seemingly random ones and setting them all in one place.
  219. [23:38] <[Gtz]Filia> If you have no further orders, I will go attend the matter we discussed before.
  220. [23:38] <[Mode]Aileen> Personification of death, huh?
  221. [23:39] <[Tesla]Alexia> Pretty much. Lots of names for it, but that's the idea.
  222. [23:39] <[Mode]Aileen> So those guys in the truck were... uh, your mark?
  223. [23:39] * [Dune]Iniuria smiles at Filia.
  224. [23:39] <[Dune]Iniuria> Sure, you can go on ahead.
  225. [23:39] * [Dune]Iniuria appends, quickly:
  226. [23:40] <[Dune]Iniuria> ah, would you mind if i came with, though?
  227. [23:40] <[huh]Reliqua> I'm still not entirely sure i understand.
  228. [23:40] * [kiri]Takenaba shrugs.
  229. [23:40] <[Tesla]Alexia> Yup. And you took care of them right before I got to them, so I thought you were worth investigating even if it was pure coincidence.
  230. [23:40] <[kiri]Takenaba> She's kinda wacky, if you ask me.
  231. [23:41] * [Tesla]Alexia shrugs, and addresses Reliqua.
  232. [23:42] <[Tesla]Alexia> Well, are you familiar with the concept of death?
  233. [23:42] <[huh]Reliqua> Yes, as well as one like me can be.
  234. [23:42] * [Dune]Iniuria looks at Filia inquisitively, waiting for an answer or response.
  235. [23:42] * [Gtz]Filia files away "would you mind" as a means of pertaining if something is acceptable
  236. [23:43] <[Gtz]Filia> I would not.
  237. [23:44] * [Gtz]Filia collects these random things and carries them in a tray. She takes them to where she mapped the infirmary to be located.
  238. [23:44] * [Dune]Iniuria smiles again, and outwardly happy, moves to accompany Filia.
  239. [23:45] <[Dune]Iniuria> alright then, let's go!
  240. [23:45] <[Mode]Aileen> So, you came to express thanks or something for doing your job for you?
  241. [23:45] * [Mode]Aileen grins to herself.
  242. [23:46] <[Mode]Aileen> Maybe offer some kind of reward?
  243. [23:47] <[Tesla]Alexia> Well, did you have something in mind? I shouldn't have any formal meetings for a while now that that's done.
  244. [23:49] <[Mode]Aileen> Well, since you came all the way out here and got yourself stuck, why not join the 'staff'?
  245. [23:50] <[Mode]Aileen> I could always use more people on hand, after all. More workers means things get easier for everyone.
  246. [23:51] <[Tesla]Alexia> Well, I think I have time enough to oblige you. Why not?
  247. [23:51] * [huh]Reliqua shakes her head, but does not pursue the subject.
  248. [23:52] * [Gtz]Filia arrives at the infirmary, setting down the tray and procuring the largest syringe she can find.
  249. [23:52] * [Mode]Aileen claps excitedly.
  250. [23:52] <[Mode]Aileen> Haha, two newcomers in one day! This is great.
  251. [23:53] * [Mode]Aileen clears her throat, then plants her hands on her waist.
  252. [23:53] <[Mode]Aileen> Time to get started then! Takenaba! You show these two new girls around and make sure they know the layout, I'm going to go investigate dinner.
  253. [23:53] * [kiri]Takenaba sigh
  254. [23:54] <[kiri]Takenaba> Yeah sure. Leave the babysitting to me like always.
  255. [23:54] * [huh]Reliqua takes offense.
  256. [23:54] <[huh]Reliqua> Babysitting?
  257. [23:54] <[Tesla]Alexia> Well, could you get me out of these cuffs first at least?
  258. [23:54] <[kiri]Takenaba> a sec, please.
  259. [23:55] * [kiri]Takenaba KARATE-CHOP the fuck out of that cuffs, like a real man would do in this situation.
  260. [23:55] <[kiri]Takenaba> DUWAH~!
  261. [23:56] * [Dune]Iniuria looks around the infirmary a bit, and then asks Filia:
  262. [23:56] <[Dune]Iniuria> Filia, could i help you get anything?
  263. [23:57] * [Gtz]Filia mixes various substances, but injects mostly water into her "bloodstream". Her features deepen, no longer clinging to her alloyed frame, but her skin is still abnormally pale.
  264. [23:57] * [Tesla]Alexia brings her hands up, and looks at them curiously before turning to Takenaba.
  265. [23:58] <[Gtz]Filia> No.
  266. [23:58] <[Tesla]Alexia> So, you don't believe in things like the Grim Reaper, or Shinigami, or Thanatos, or anything like that?
  267. [23:58] <[kiri]Takenaba> If I can't see it, it doesn't exist, yo.
  268. [00:00] * [Dune]Iniuria nods, but looks a little relieved that Filia's appearance is returning (more so) to normal.
  269. [00:00] <[Tesla]Alexia> Ah, empiricist. So you'd need me to prove myself to you then.
  270. [00:00] <[kiri]Takenaba> Kind of.
  271. [00:01] * [Gtz]Filia injects herself slowly a few more times, filling each syringe with a darker, thicker substance each time before finishing.
  272. [00:01] <[huh]Reliqua> Oooh, is that what you were saying?
  273. [00:02] <[Tesla]Alexia> Basically.
  274. [00:02] * [Gtz]Filia flexes her arm, opening and closing her hand experimentally.
  275. [00:03] <[huh]Reliqua> Yeah, no, things like that can't exist.
  276. [00:04] <[kiri]Takenaba> Well to tell the truth I didn't care less about all this grim reaper 'n stuffs. Just do your work and we'll provide shelter and food. Since that's basically what everyone wants out here in the wasteland.
  277. [00:04] <[Gtz]Filia> Alright. Within two hours and twelve minutes, my artificial blood should be replenished. However, the substance I used is substandard.
  278. [00:04] <[kiri]Takenaba> just don't make a scene and we should get along just fine, I guess.
  279. [00:05] <[Tesla]Alexia> Well, for now that should do. I'll get you to believe me eventually, though.
  280. [00:06] <[kiri]Takenaba> not really necessary, but okay, if ya insist.
  281. [00:06] <[kiri]Takenaba> Sorry for earlier. It's a, y'know, my duty. No offense.
  282. [00:07] <[Tesla]Alexia> Nah, that's okay.
  283. [00:08] * [Dune]Iniuria nods again.
  284. [00:08] <[kiri]Takenaba> So yeah, Missy. I'll take them for a sightseeing. Anything else?
  285. [00:08] <[Dune]Iniuria> alright.
  286. [00:09] * [Gtz]Filia continues making more of the gunk, but doesn't use any of it.
  287. [00:12] * [Dune]Iniuria watches Filia as she does this, and begins pondering... ( I... don't want to make her go through that again and again if i can, and Aileen's helped before... )
  288. [00:12] * [Dune]Iniuria outwardly looks just a tiny bit troubled.
  289. [00:12] <[Mode]Aileen> Hmm...
  290. [00:12] <[Mode]Aileen> Nothing really comes to mind...
  291. [00:12] * [Mode]Aileen wanders back over to the control console and sits back int he swivel chair in front of it, spinning slightly.
  292. [00:13] <[Mode]Aileen> I'm going to check on the systems a bit more see if there's anything else strange going on, then I'm heading to the kitchen.
  293. [00:13] <[kiri]Takenaba> wilco.
  294. [00:13] <[Mode]Aileen> Oh~!
  295. [00:14] * [Mode]Aileen stops to face the group near the doors.
  296. [00:14] <[Mode]Aileen> I keep forgetting, since I'm so used to everyone knowing me already. My name's Aileen.
  297. [00:14] * [Mode]Aileen addresses Alexia, and nods as she finishes.
  298. [00:14] <[Mode]Aileen> Good to have you on board!
  299. [00:15] * [Mode]Aileen wheels back around to the console and picks up the microphone again, hitting the broadcast button with her foot.
  300. [00:15] <[kiri]Takenaba> more people for you to toy with, huh.
  301. [00:15] * [kiri]Takenaba ruffles Aileen.
  302. [00:15] <[kiri]Takenaba> I'll be goin'. Follow me, girls.
  303. [00:16] <[Tesla]Alexia> Thanks, then, Aileen. Let me know if you need anything.
  304. [00:16] <[Mode]Aileen> We've got new faces on hand, so don't be surprised if you're working with someone you don't know. Have fun together!
  305. [00:16] * [Tesla]Alexia follows Takenaba, adjusting her mirrorshades as she looks around.
  306. [00:18] * [huh]Reliqua bows to Aileen before departing.
  307. [00:18] <[huh]Reliqua> Thank you again, miss.
  308. [00:19] * [Gtz]Filia finishes making a cup of sludge, and leaves it in one of the cabinets for later use. She turns to Iniuria.
  309. [00:20] <[Gtz]Filia> Is there a problem?
  310. [00:20] * [Dune]Iniuria breaks out of her thinking, realizing that Filia has addressed her.
  311. [00:21] * [Dune]Iniuria speaks truthfully. (There's no real reason for me to lie to her, and she caught me no-nonsense last time...)
  312. [00:22] <[Dune]Iniuria> Well, if you have to go to this much trouble to regenerate after...
  313. [00:22] * [Dune]Iniuria messes a little with her large ribbon.
  314. [00:22] <[Dune]Iniuria> feeding me, i don't want to trouble you.
  315. [00:23] * [Dune]Iniuria looks up at Filia, now.
  316. [00:25] <[Gtz]Filia> Trouble is part of my orders. If there is no trouble, I recommend terminating my fuel cell to prevent hazardous radiation from being emitted.
  317. [00:26] * [kiri]Takenaba take the girl for a tour around the prison, noting some point of interest and the place they need to take care of, where supply is and such. And after a while they circled around to the cell block where Takenaba imprisoned the intruder from that last time.
  318. [00:26] <[kiri]Takenaba> That's probably all. You got it right?
  319. [00:27] <[Tesla]Alexia> I think so. It's a lot to take in at once, but I'm pretty sure I get it.
  320. [00:27] * [Dune]Iniuria 's eyes widen in shock at Filia's suggestion, and she instantly protests any action like that.
  321. [00:27] <[Dune]Iniuria> No, no, that's not an option.
  322. [00:28] * [huh]Reliqua nods.
  323. [00:28] * [Dune]Iniuria walks toward Filia.
  324. [00:28] <[huh]Reliqua> I have a pretty clear map of the... area now.
  325. [00:28] <[Dune]Iniuria> Destroying your fuel cell means you dying, and that's not allowed, ok?
  326. [00:28] * [huh]Reliqua searches around for a suitable word.
  327. [00:29] * [Dune]Iniuria stands right next to / under Filia now, and looks up to her with a serious, determined, and slightly troubled glare.
  328. [00:29] <[kiri]Takenaba> The area in the back is mostly unexplored, but it's full of rubble and broken down stuffs, so it's not really important.
  329. [00:30] * [huh]Reliqua nods.
  330. [00:30] <[huh]Reliqua> Your name is...?
  331. [00:30] * [Gtz]Filia looks down at Iniuria. If you look closely, you can almost see the red in her pupils conflict with her gray-blue irises.
  332. [00:31] <[Gtz]Filia> Acknowledged.
  333. [00:31] * [Dune]Iniuria nods and sighs in relief, then closing her eyes and hugging Filia.
  334. [00:34] <[Gtz]Filia> It may be the only option in the future, however. We have discussed this. ...?
  335. [00:35] <[kiri]Takenaba> Oh. The name's Takenaba. You can just call me Take.
  336. [00:36] * [Dune]Iniuria continues hugging Filia, but speaks remorsefully.
  337. [00:36] <[Dune]Iniuria> We have, but i'm still telling you it's not an option, alright?
  338. [00:36] * [huh]Reliqua nods.
  339. [00:36] <[huh]Reliqua> Reliqua. It's a pleasure to be working with you.
  340. [00:36] <[Dune]Iniuria> Your life is important, too...
  341. [00:37] <[Tesla]Alexia> Well, I guess you know my name already. Looking forward to working with you then.
  342. [00:38] <[Gtz]Filia> Understood. However, to prevent misunderstanding, I must correct, insofar that I have "life", it is only skin deep.
  343. [00:39] <[kiri]Takenaba> Like I said. if we peace it up, there will be no trouble.
  344. [00:40] <[kiri]Takenaba> so whatchagonnado?
  345. [00:41] <[kiri]Takenaba> We've finished our duty, so let's all go to the kitchen. If missy finish her stuffs it's our turn next.
  346. [00:41] * [huh]Reliqua heads off to the kitchen
  347. [00:41] * [Dune]Iniuria squeezes Filia for a moment before lightening her embrace, and playing with some of Filia's hair using one of her hands...
  348. [00:42] <[Tesla]Alexia> Eh? Ah, sure. While we're at it I could practice using my weapon or something.
  349. [00:42] <[Dune]Iniuria> "Life" is a lot more than that, you know?
  350. [00:42] <[Dune]Iniuria> More than just biology...
  351. [00:42] <[huh]Reliqua> Your "weapon"?
  352. [00:42] <[Gtz]Filia> For others, perhaps.
  353. [00:43] * [Gtz]Filia keeps an eye on Iniuria, with vague interest
  354. [00:44] * [Dune]Iniuria releases from the embrace, and places her hands on Filia's shoulders while looking at her seriously. She would anyway, were she tall enough. Instead, her hands remain slightly above Filia's hips.
  355. [00:44] <[Tesla]Alexia> Hm, yeah. One second.
  356. [00:44] <[Dune]Iniuria> No, for you too.
  357. [00:45] * [kiri]Takenaba leads the group past that one cell where there's a dried up corpse of a man. It looks awfully recent. Takenaba paid it no mind and just move on.
  358. [00:45] * [Dune]Iniuria speaks seriously, but lightens up a bit and pokes Filia in her stomach playfully, then resuming her hug.
  359. [00:45] * [Tesla]Alexia reaches into the back of her dress, pulling out what seems to be two joined pieces of metal.
  360. [00:46] <[Dune]Iniuria> I guess you just don't really know, yet...
  361. [00:46] * [Dune]Iniuria muses to herself.
  362. [00:46] * [huh]Reliqua stares at the corpse, distracted.
  363. [00:46] <[huh]Reliqua> That is...
  364. [00:47] <[kiri]Takenaba> Some random bugger.
  365. [00:47] <[huh]Reliqua> . . .
  366. [00:47] <[Tesla]Alexia> This. It's a balisong, nothing too complicated, but I've been using it for some time and, I guess, like the feel of it... hm? So?
  367. [00:47] <[kiri]Takenaba> Exotic weapon you got there.
  368. [00:47] <[kiri]Takenaba> Mine is...
  369. [00:48] * [kiri]Takenaba clench his fist, and show it to Alexia.
  370. [00:48] * [huh]Reliqua is still staring at the corpse.
  371. [00:48] <[Gtz]Filia> ...What are you doing, Iniuria?
  372. [00:48] <[kiri]Takenaba> ...this. Far better than the gun itself.
  373. [00:48] <[huh]Reliqua> You're just gonna leave him there?
  374. [00:48] * [kiri]Takenaba turns to Reliqua.
  375. [00:49] <[kiri]Takenaba> If there's no order for me to get rid 'o that, I'll leave him there.
  376. [00:49] * [huh]Reliqua narrows her eyes.
  377. [00:50] * [Mode]Aileen after her check of the feeds turns up nothing unusual, she pushes away from the console and heads over to the door and steps out, heading towards the kitchen.
  378. [00:50] * [Dune]Iniuria smiles a bit and looks back up at Filia.
  379. [00:50] <[Tesla]Alexia> And there's not much I could do for him, either. He looks like someone else's job.
  380. [00:50] * [kiri]Takenaba shrugs.
  381. [00:50] <[Dune]Iniuria> Hugging you, of course.
  382. [00:51] <[Dune]Iniuria> it's not the first time i've done this.
  383. [00:51] <[huh]Reliqua> I'll have to talk to the master about that, then. I can't just have corpses dirtying up cells, if I'm to work around here...
  384. [00:51] * [Dune]Iniuria gives Filia a little squeeze, for good measure.
  385. [00:51] <[kiri]Takenaba> Well, better move.
  386. [00:51] <[Dune]Iniuria> or maybe you were asking about something else?
  387. [00:52] * [Dune]Iniuria speaks with a little suggestion in her voice. Just a little.
  388. [00:53] <[Gtz]Filia> Hm.
  389. [00:53] * [Tesla]Alexia begins flipping her knife, continuously producing clicking noises.
  390. [00:54] * [Mode]GM as if in response to the voices, the man in the cell shifts slightly. Rather than being dead, as it appears, he had been unconscious, and is now coming around due to the sound of voices.
  391. [00:55] <[Gtz]Filia> No. However, is this all you wish to do? The Master may have orders for us.
  392. [00:55] <[kiri]Takenaba> Oh hey. That random bugger's not really dead yet.
  393. [00:56] * [Dune]Iniuria sighs.
  394. [00:56] <[huh]Reliqua> Oh, he's not dead? That's quite alright, then.
  395. [00:56] <[Dune]Iniuria> Yeah, Aileen probably's waiting in the kitchen...
  396. [00:56] * [Dune]Iniuria reluctantly releases her hug.
  397. [00:56] * [huh]Reliqua moves on to the kitchen.
  398. [00:57] <[Dune]Iniuria> but to answer your question, no, that's not quite all, i guess.
  399. [00:57] * [Dune]Iniuria smiles.
  400. [00:57] * [kiri]Takenaba just shrugs, and move on.
  401. [00:58] * [Tesla]Alexia follows, closing her knife and stowing it again.
  402. [00:58] <[Gtz]Filia> ?
  403. [01:01] * [Mode]Aileen reaches the kitchen eventually, and while she finds dinner prepared, she sees no sign of her keepers. Sighing to herself, she heads to the dining table anyway and takes her seat at the head. Peas, rice and steak, huh? Got some good supplies from that run it seems.
  404. [01:02] <[Gtz]Filia> Your orders?
  405. [01:02] * [kiri]Takenaba and his little group arrived at the kitchen.
  406. [01:02] * [Dune]Iniuria smiles widely at Filia, then taking her hand.
  407. [01:02] <[kiri]Takenaba> 'sup?
  408. [01:02] <[Dune]Iniuria> let's get back to the kitchen, wouldn't want to keep them waiting~
  409. [01:03] * [Dune]Iniuria gives Filia's hand a light tug.
  410. [01:03] <[Gtz]Filia> Of course.
  411. [01:03] * [Gtz]Filia follows along.
  412. [01:03] * [huh]Reliqua bows to Aileen as she enters.
  413. [01:04] * [Tesla]Alexia nods her head to Aileen, then runs her eyes over the table.
  414. [01:05] * [Dune]Iniuria jogs off towards the kitchen, Filia in tow.
  415. [00:07] <[Mode]Aileen> You're slow!
  416. [00:08] <[kiri]Takenaba> Well, duh! This prison is gigantic!
  417. [00:09] <[huh]Reliqua> Ah, I'm sorry, master. Were you waiting long?
  418. 06[00:09] * [Mode]Aileen has already started eating, of course, but slows down a bit as the others finally show up. As they do, however, there's a loud series of sounds from deep within the prison. After the initial shock, Aileen directs Filia to investigate, and she dutifully heads off to her given task.
  419. 06[00:11] * [Dune]Iniuria watches Filia go until she's no longer visible, and then enters the main dining area of the kitchen and takes a seat.
  420. 06[00:11] * [huh]Reliqua nods to Iniuria as she enters.
  421. [00:14] <[Mode]Aileen> Not too long, at least the food is still warm.
  422. 06[00:14] * [Dune]Iniuria sees the android up and running, and nods to her as well.
  423. 01[00:15] <[Dune]Iniuria> my cooking, too.
  424. 06[00:15] * [Dune]Iniuria then walks over to the new robotic maid, and offers a handshake.
  425. 06[00:15] * [kiri]Takenaba just sort of standing around, awaiting for orders.
  426. 06[00:15] * [huh]Reliqua takes it.
  427. [00:15] <[huh]Reliqua> Reliqua.
  428. 01[00:15] <[Dune]Iniuria> Iniuria, pleased to meet you.
  429. 06[00:16] * [Mode]Aileen nods to Iniuria with a mouthful.
  430. [00:16] <[Mode]Aileen> 'S goo'
  431. 06[00:16] * [Mode]Aileen fails at speaking with a mouthful of steak, ration or not.
  432. [00:17] <[kiri]Takenaba> Hey. Don't speak while your mouth is full, missy!
  433. 06[00:17] * [huh]Reliqua takes a bite herself.
  434. 06[00:18] * [Tesla]Alexia curiously turns to the new arrivals, but waits before going to greet them.
  435. [00:18] <[huh]Reliqua> It is good.
  436. 06[00:20] * [Mode]Aileen scowls at Takenaba, but doesn't reply right away, waiting until she's swallowed.
  437. [00:20] <[Mode]Aileen> Manners aren't that important, you know.
  438. [00:21] <[Mode]Aileen> I'll talk if I want to talk.
  439. [00:21] <[kiri]Takenaba> yeah sure, 'kay.
  440. 06[00:21] * [kiri]Takenaba shrugs.
  441. 06[00:21] * [huh]Reliqua sides with Aileen.
  442. [00:21] <[huh]Reliqua> Now, you should show more respect!
  443. 06[00:22] * [Dune]Iniuria releases reliqua's hand and takes her own seat at the table to begin to eat.
  444. 06[00:22] * [Mode]Aileen brightens at Reliqua's support.
  445. [00:22] <[Mode]Aileen> See! Reli gets it! You should follow her example Take.
  446. 06[00:23] * [Dune]Iniuria speaks up.
  447. 01[00:23] <[Dune]Iniuria> Manners are good too, but not always necessary.
  448. 06[00:24] * [Tesla]Alexia shrugs, and looks for a seat at the table before sitting down and beginning to eat.
  449. [00:24] <[Mode]Aileen> Mmm, 'specially alone.
  450. 06[00:24] * [Mode]Aileen speaks while having yet another mouthful.
  451. [00:25] <[Tesla]Alexia> Still, that's different, isn't it?
  452. [00:25] <[kiri]Takenaba> You're not really ladylike for a lady, y'know?
  453. 06[00:26] * [Mode]Aileen chuckles a bit.
  454. [00:26] <[Mode]Aileen> There's no world of ladies in this day and age.
  455. [00:27] <[Mode]Aileen> I don't mind in front of you lot because you're my servants and workers, but if one of the traders or those slavers swing around at some point and want to strike a deal, that's when I need to be at my best appearance wise to try to keep the from thinking they can take advantage of my hospitality, but otherwise I'm not going to put on airs.
  456. [00:29] <[Tesla]Alexia> Wouldn't it be good to at least make a habit of it so you get it right without having to force yourself, whenever that happens?
  457. [00:32] <[Mode]Aileen> Mmm...
  458. 06[00:33] * [Mode]Aileen pushes around a bit of steak for a second in thought, then spears it and eats it.
  459. [00:33] <[Mode]Aileen> Nah.
  460. 06[00:34] * [Dune]Iniuria smiles a bit, amused with Aileen.
  461. [00:34] <[huh]Reliqua> Acting like this means the master is completely fine with letting down her guard with us. It's evidence that she feels comfortable with us.
  462. 06[00:34] * [Dune]Iniuria 's smile disappears though, when her stomach grumbles in that particular way...
  463. [00:35] <[Mode]Aileen> It's not really forced, it's a difference in attitude. Between relaxed and business. Someone comes looking to buy and sell supplies, I want to come across as a valuable customer so I get better deals and better goods, while trying not to look weak and easy to deceive.
  464. [00:36] <[Mode]Aileen> Same with manhunters and slavers, or anyone that would like to make use of this facility. It is still a prison after all, and if people can pay some kind of fee to store their... perishables here for some time, then I've no problem with their business, but a the same time I need to seem ruthless, someone they wouldn't want to push around, even if just being in the same room makes me nervous.
  465. [00:37] <[Mode]Aileen> I'm sure there's quite a few times that this place would have been overrun by slavers or other wasteland gangs coming to make a deal if I didn't have some of the people in this room.
  466. [00:37] <[kiri]Takenaba> oh ho.
  467. [00:37] <[Mode]Aileen> I wouldn't even want to imagine what some of those assholes would do with a young girl like me either, and I'd prefer it stay that way.
  468. 06[00:37] * [kiri]Takenaba is somewhat proud.
  469. 06[00:38] * [Dune]Iniuria 's smile returns, hearing the praise.
  470. 06[00:39] * [huh]Reliqua shudders empathetically.
  471. [00:40] <[Tesla]Alexia> Yeah, I know what you mean. I've seen some pretty impressive stuff of the sort in this line of work... not much of it is very pleasant.
  472. [00:41] <[Mode]Aileen> Eh~ I could only imagine what someone like you would have seen.
  473. [00:43] <[Tesla]Alexia> Well, I'd have lots to tell. I could narrate some if you want, but you'd better have a lot of time on your hands if you ever ask me to.
  474. [00:43] <[kiri]Takenaba> and I bet it's not a thing to discuss over dinner, fo sho.
  475. [00:44] <[Mode]Aileen> Well, it's not like there's a lot for me to do during the days. I wake up, watch the monitors for activity, practice my magic, order around my minions, sleep, and other things I can do to amuse myself to the best of my ability.
  476. [00:45] <[huh]Reliqua> ...magic?
  477. [00:45] <[kiri]Takenaba> Minions, huh?!
  478. 06[00:46] * [kiri]Takenaba ruffles Aileen, disheveling her hair. and of course, this is intentional.
  479. 06[00:47] * [Mode]Aileen squirms at Takenaba's action, shaking away the aggressing hand.
  480. [00:47] <[Mode]Aileen> Yeah, magic, like, watch.
  481. 06[00:48] * [Mode]Aileen holds a hand out over the table, and several small lights appear in the air over her palm, moving around her fingers. They converge above her palm, and burst into a multicoloured nova. Nothing more than a fancy light effect, but still.
  482. 06[00:48] * [Dune]Iniuria watches intently, as she usually does not see any of Aileen's magic.
  483. 06[00:48] * [Dune]Iniuria claps.
  484. 06[00:48] * [kiri]Takenaba whistle.
  485. [00:48] <[kiri]Takenaba> Cool.
  486. 01[00:48] <[Dune]Iniuria> Very.
  487. [00:48] <[huh]Reliqua> That was... magic, you said?
  488. [00:48] <[Tesla]Alexia> Very nice.
  489. [00:48] <[Mode]Aileen> Just a small display, something flashy.
  490. [00:49] <[Mode]Aileen> Before the war, magic had a lot of use in pretty much everything, from stage performances to basic needs like lighting fires or doing chores. Of course, there were the combat applications, which is what he have to thank for the current state of affairs in the world.
  491. 06[00:50] * [huh]Reliqua nods.
  492. [00:50] <[kiri]Takenaba> too bad I can't do any of that.
  493. [00:50] <[Mode]Aileen> Most people nowadays have the fear of god in them, seeing magic as some kind of terror, and they're afraid of trying to use it in case it causes even more destruction, but they're just ignorant sandeaters.
  494. [00:51] <[Mode]Aileen> It's like any kind of tool, even a wrench can be deadly when you use it to bash someone's skull open.
  495. 06[00:51] * [Mode]Aileen grins, with a touch of wickedness.
  496. [00:52] <[Mode]Aileen> It's also handy when the ones scared of it are the ones that would try to take advantage of me. Fear is a powerful negotiation tactic.
  497. [00:52] <[Mode]Aileen> One or two grown men go flying across a room with just a wave of a hand, anyone will listen to what the young lady has to say~
  498. [00:52] <[huh]Reliqua> You most certainly are full of marvels, master.
  499. 06[00:52] * [Dune]Iniuria nods, agreeing with Reliqua.
  500. [00:53] <[Tesla]Alexia> ...Though fear does blur the line between negotiation and coercion.
  501. [00:53] <[Tesla]Alexia> Not that it's such a bad thing, though.
  502. 06[00:53] * [Dune]Iniuria thinks, though: (I wonder if my teeth could work in 'negotiation'?)
  503. 06[00:53] * [Dune]Iniuria absent-mindedly opens her mouth a little, and thumbs one of her slightly elongated and sharp canines.
  504. 06[00:54] * [kiri]Takenaba look at his own fist, deep in thought....
  505. [00:56] <[Mode]Aileen> The line is always blurry anyway, though it helps balance the situation if they're carrying weapons or just acting out of line.
  506. 06[00:56] * [Mode]Aileen pushes her empty plate away and lays her chest down on the table.
  507. [00:56] <[Mode]Aileen> Haa~ That was good.
  508. 06[00:58] * [huh]Reliqua does the same with her own almost-empty dish.
  509. 01[00:59] <[Dune]Iniuria> Thank you.
  510. 06[00:59] * [Dune]Iniuria notices that she's just essentially gone and shown off her teeth, and quickly shuts her mouth with a small clack.
  511. [01:05] <[Mode]Aileen> Hmm, I wonder what I'll do for tonight...
  512. 06[01:05] * [Mode]Aileen sits up, resting her head in her hands.
  513. [01:06] <[Mode]Aileen> What do the lot of you do to pass time when I'm not sending you off to work?
  514. 06[01:06] * [Mode]Aileen looks at the two newcomers.
  515. [01:06] <[Mode]Aileen> Or rather, in certain cases, what do or did you do to pass time?
  516. [01:07] <[huh]Reliqua> Er, I've mostly been in my box, so...
  517. 06[01:07] * [huh]Reliqua scratches her head nervously.
  518. 06[01:08] * [Dune]Iniuria 's stomach grumbles again. (I'll... go ahead and ask Aileen, tonight.)
  519. [01:08] <[Tesla]Alexia> Not too much time to kill, so I just practiced tricks with my balisong a little.
  520. [01:10] <[Mode]Aileen> Hmm~ Well you said something, back in the storeroom, but I think that's something I'll ask about later.
  521. 06[01:11] * [Mode]Aileen eyes Reliqua a bit, then goes back to looking over the table.
  522. 06[01:11] * [Tesla]Alexia looks at Aileen, confused, but then shrugs and looks forward.
  523. 01[01:11] <[Dune]Iniuria> hm, i'll find something to do.
  524. 06[01:11] * [Dune]Iniuria chimes in a little late.
  525. 06[01:14] * [Mode]Aileen sits back and stretches, then stands up from the table.
  526. [01:14] <[Mode]Aileen> I'm heading back up to my room for now I guess. Clean up in here and then you can have the rest of the night to yourselves.
  527. 06[01:14] * [Dune]Iniuria tries giving Aileen a half-nervous "I'm hungry..." glance on the sly.
  528. 01[01:15] <[Dune]Iniuria> Alright.
  529. 06[01:15] * [Mode]Aileen notices Iniuria giving looks, and nods a bit. She'd been acting a little flustered a little bit ago as well, must be about that time again.
  530. 06[01:17] * [huh]Reliqua immediately rises and begins clearing away the dishes.
  531. [01:19] <[kiri]Takenaba> Well, let's clean up. That's all we can do for now.
  532. 06[01:20] * [kiri]Takenaba set off to help Reli.
  533. 06[01:20] * [Dune]Iniuria sets off to help Take.
  534. 01[01:20] <[Dune]Iniuria> yep.
  535. 06[01:20] * [Mode]Aileen heads out of the kitchen/dining room and into the hallway outside, taking a few steps along, but not exactly in a rush to get anyway, more to wait for Ini to catch up.
  536. 06[01:21] * [Tesla]Alexia stands up, and starts gathering everything into groups so they're easier to collect.
  537. 06[01:22] * [kiri]Takenaba finish up stuffs, y'know, like, maid-ey stuffs.
  538. 06[01:26] * [Dune]Iniuria sees the stack of dishes, and while they are relatively clean, wishes to leave them until later.
  539. 01[01:26] <[Dune]Iniuria> These dishes aren't too dirty, so i'll handle them in the morning if you like.
  540. 06[01:26] * [Dune]Iniuria addresses Takenaba and Reliqua while ready to exit the room.
  541. [01:26] <[kiri]Takenaba> I have nothing to do, so you go on ahead. I'll deal with this.
  542. 06[01:26] * [Dune]Iniuria nods.
  543. 01[01:27] <[Dune]Iniuria> thanks.
  544. [01:27] <[kiri]Takenaba> don't sweat it, lass.
  545. 06[01:27] * [Dune]Iniuria then rushes out of the room to catch up with Aileen.
  546. 06[01:28] * [huh]Reliqua finishes up with the dishes and silverware, then looks around rather listlessly.
  547. [01:28] <[kiri]Takenaba> nicely done, robo.
  548. 06[01:28] * [kiri]Takenaba pats Reliqua.
  549. 06[01:29] * [huh]Reliqua nods absentmindedly.
  550. [01:29] <[huh]Reliqua> Hey.... did the master say where I should sleep?
  551. 06[01:29] * [Mode]Aileen hears Iniuria coming up, and turns to acknowledge her.
  552. [01:29] <[Mode]Aileen> About time for you to eat again, eh?
  553. [01:30] <[Mode]Aileen> Hasn't it been a little longer than normal though?
  554. 06[01:30] * [Mode]Aileen develops a sly grin.
  555. 06[01:31] * [kiri]Takenaba stretch.
  556. 06[01:32] * [Dune]Iniuria shyly responds, while fiddling with her ribbon.
  557. 01[01:32] <[Dune]Iniuria> yes...
  558. [01:35] <[kiri]Takenaba> Well I'm going to do some workout after dinner.
  559. [01:35] <[kiri]Takenaba> You?
  560. [01:35] <[huh]Reliqua> Eh, the master didn't tell me where my room was...
  561. [01:35] <[huh]Reliqua> Maybe she expects me to sleep in my box?
  562. [01:35] <[kiri]Takenaba> Well, how about.....
  563. [01:36] <[Tesla]Alexia> Yeah, I'm kinda left without a room myself.
  564. [01:36] <[Mode]Aileen> It's okay, I don't really mind.
  565. [01:36] <[kiri]Takenaba> You all can stay in my room for today. I'll go scouting around and search for a comfortable room for ya tomorrow.
  566. [01:36] <[Mode]Aileen> So, whereto? Would you rather head to the infirmary so I can make up a bloodpack for you or would you prefer to drink warm from the vein?
  567. [01:36] <[kiri]Takenaba> I can sleep on the floor, no prob.
  568. 06[01:37] * [Dune]Iniuria continues fidgeting with her ribbon, now adding her skirt to the nervous display.
  569. [01:37] <[Tesla]Alexia> I wouldn't force you to, you realize. I could do that just fine myself.
  570. [01:38] <[huh]Reliqua> Yes, I wouldn't want to impose.
  571. [01:38] <[kiri]Takenaba> Ey. when I say no prob, I mean it. You gonna sleep in my room today.
  572. 06[01:38] * [Dune]Iniuria recalls her feeding from Filia, earlier in the day... And while she usually preferred bloodpacks...
  573. 01[01:38] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14um, warm...
  574. 06[01:40] * [Dune]Iniuria blushes, ever so slightly.
  575. [01:43] <[huh]Reliqua> Um... I really...
  576. [01:44] <[kiri]Takenaba> Okay. Follow me, you lot. Let's go get the blanket and pillow and stuffs.
  577. 06[01:45] * [Mode]Aileen pats Iniuria on the head, chuckling a little.
  578. 06[01:45] * [kiri]Takenaba half-pull-half-drag the two out of the room, heading to the laundry room.
  579. [01:46] <[Mode]Aileen> Then we'll need to make sure not to leave a mess. I think the bath connected to my room should be a good place, I was going to go soak anyway.
  580. 06[01:46] * [huh]Reliqua follows a bit uncomfortably, a bit unwillingly.
  581. 06[01:48] * [Dune]Iniuria 's blush increases a little more, and she nods nervously.
  582. 01[01:48] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14o-ok...
  583. 06[01:49] * [Tesla]Alexia lets herself be pulled along, not really minding it at all.
  584. 06[01:52] * [Mode]Aileen heads up to her room, Iniuria in tow, and ushers her in.
  585. [01:57] <[Mode]Aileen> I can't remember the last time you drank fresh.
  586. 06[01:58] * [Dune]Iniuria just blushes a tiny bit, and drops her head.
  587. ---
  588. @@Extended scene!
  589. ---
  590. [23:57] <[Mode]Aileen> [When we last left off: Aileen heads up to her room, Iniuria in tow, and ushers her in. Aileen "I can't remember the last time you drank fresh." Iniuria just blushes a tiny bit, and drops her head.]
  591. [23:58] <[Mode]Aileen> You're already out of blood packs though? I thought there were still some left.
  592. 06[23:59] * [Dune]Iniuria 's blush deepens slightly.
  593. [00:00] <[Mode]Aileen> Or have you been living off some other source?
  594. 06[00:00] * [Mode]Aileen smiles, rubbing Iniuria's head.
  595. [00:00] <[Mode]Aileen> In any case, you're hungry.
  596. 06[00:01] * [Dune]Iniuria remains silent still, but nods slightly.
  597. [00:05] <[Mode]Aileen> What's wrong? You're pretty quiet. You nervous about doing this now after getting used to the packs?
  598. 06[00:06] * [Dune]Iniuria recalls again what it was like feeding off of Filia earlier... (I-i kinda want to again, but...)
  599. 06[00:06] * [Dune]Iniuria thinks: (I don't want to harm her, either...)
  600. 06[00:07] * [Dune]Iniuria (so maybe...)
  601. 01[00:08] <[Dune]Iniuria> 15this way i won't...
  602. 06[00:08] * [Dune]Iniuria inadvertently thinks aloud, albeit very quietly.
  603. 06[00:08] * [Mode]Aileen crouches slightly.
  604. [00:08] <[Mode]Aileen> Hmm, you say something?
  605. 06[00:11] * [Dune]Iniuria blushes and drops her head a little more, some of her hair now covers her face.
  606. 06[00:13] * [Dune]Iniuria tries to keep Aileen away from discussion of... that.
  607. 01[00:13] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14um, yeah, i'm nervous...
  608. 06[00:15] * [Mode]Aileen stands back up, stretching as she does.
  609. [00:16] <[Mode]Aileen> I'll be fine, don't worry. A little bite like yours is easy to handle.
  610. 06[00:16] * [Dune]Iniuria gulps, but doesn't raise her head.
  611. 01[00:16] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14um, alright...
  612. 06[00:16] * [Mode]Aileen walks over to the door connecting to the private bath and pushes it open, grabbing a towel from the rack near the door.
  613. [00:16] <[Mode]Aileen> Come on now.
  614. 06[00:19] * [Dune]Iniuria raises her head back up a bit as she walks slowly over to the bath, her heart's pacing faster than usual...
  615. 06[00:29] * [Mode]Aileen heads into the bathroom. The bathroom is actually pretty normal despite being the warden's private one, closer to resembling a comfortable bathroom from a home rather than a prison. Aileen sheds her overshirt, remaining in just a tank top and her shorts as she steps over to the bathtub and places the plug into the drain, and starting the water running afterwards.
  616. [00:29] <[Mode]Aileen> Okay then, which side would you prefer, front or back?
  617. 06[00:33] * [Dune]Iniuria messes a little bit with the large ribbon on her back as she stands beside the tub, breathing a little more heavily.
  618. 06[00:34] * [Dune]Iniuria feels something almost akin to guilt as she makes her request...
  619. 01[00:34] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14a-ah, front, if that's not a problem...
  620. [00:35] <[Mode]Aileen> No problem then.
  621. 06[00:36] * [Mode]Aileen letting the tub fill, she sweeps back her hair and places the towel over her lap as she sits on the edge of the tub, facing outwards.
  622. [00:36] <[Mode]Aileen> Alright then, let's get started.
  623. 06[00:43] * [Dune]Iniuria cautiously moves over to Aileen and sits in her lap and turns her body around to face Aileen, her own face still blushing deeply.
  624. 06[00:45] * [Dune]Iniuria (this is like...)
  625. 06[00:47] * [Dune]Iniuria moves her head just up to Aileen's collarbone and next to her neck, breathing heavily upon it.
  626. [00:49] <[Mode]Aileen> I'm ready.
  627. 06[00:49] * [Mode]Aileen places a hand on Iniuria's back reassuringly.
  628. 06[00:51] * [Dune]Iniuria raises her head slightly to glance at Aileen with upturned eyes.
  629. 01[00:52] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14a-are you sure?
  630. [00:54] <[Mode]Aileen> I'm not going to get any readier. Would you prefer if I make a cut first?
  631. 06[00:56] * [Dune]Iniuria drops her head back down again.
  632. 01[00:57] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14n-no, i just wanted to be sure...
  633. 06[01:03] * [Dune]Iniuria then slowly moves her mouth over beside Aileen's neck and after holding for a moment, bites down and begins drawing blood.
  634. 06[01:08] * [Mode]Aileen cringes a little bit at the bite, but bears it well. In the mean time, she channels some energy to help increase blood flow while easing the initial pain of the bite.
  635. 06[01:08] * [Dune]Iniuria somehow manages to keep the rate of this controlled however, despite all of her recalling having fed off of Filia earlier in the day.
  636. 06[01:13] * [Dune]Iniuria closes her eyes then, however, and begins to forget herself.
  637. 06[01:13] * [Dune]Iniuria starts drawing much more vigorously.
  638. 06[01:15] * [Mode]Aileen reaches back to shut off the water as the tub reaches a good amount of water, keeping her balance so as to not disturb Ini or make her wound any larger.
  639. [01:16] <[Mode]Aileen> Having a good time?
  640. 06[01:21] * [Dune]Iniuria doesn't even really hear Aileen's comment as her breathing becomes rougher and her mind slips out of reality...
  641. 06[01:24] * [Dune]Iniuria sloppily releases her grasp on the first bite, spilling a fairly large amount of blood as she goes again and makes another, releasing from that even and making one more to drain from in a massive departure from ordinary procedure.
  642. [01:27] <[Mode]Aileen> Ah, hey!
  643. 06[01:28] * [Mode]Aileen presses a hand into Iniuria's side and gives her a jolt to snap her to attention.
  644. 06[01:34] * [Dune]Iniuria starts and her eyes immediately shoot open, her body jolting into a squirming upright position and inadvertantly spilling a copious amount of blood down and on herself while doing so.
  645. 01[01:36] <[Dune]Iniuria> a-ah, eh?
  646. 06[01:37] * [Dune]Iniuria blinks and looks at Aileen, taking a moment to absorb what just happened.
  647. [01:37] <[Mode]Aileen> Getting a little excited, there, it seems.
  648. 06[01:38] * [Mode]Aileen presses a hand over the bites, focusing energy into the wound to accelerate healing.
  649. 06[01:41] * [Dune]Iniuria immediately blushes deeply and drops her head, now that she realizes she had to be snapped out of it...
  650. 01[01:41] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14a-ah, umm...
  651. [01:41] <[Mode]Aileen> Have you even fed at all recently?
  652. 06[01:45] * [Dune]Iniuria quickly tries to find some explanation for herself.
  653. 01[01:45] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14uhh, well...yeah...
  654. [01:46] <[Mode]Aileen> Must have been a while ago...
  655. 06[01:47] * [Mode]Aileen pulls her hand away. Despite it being covered in blood, the bites are now mostly healed. She does note that she's starting to feel a little light headed.
  656. [01:47] <[Mode]Aileen> Think I stopped you in time at least, just starting to feel woozy.
  657. 06[01:47] * [Dune]Iniuria somehow blushes even more deeply, and turns her head to try and avoid looking at Aileen entirely.
  658. 06[01:48] * [Dune]Iniuria does this because she knows the last time was that morning...
  659. 01[01:49] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14i'm 15sorry...
  660. [01:52] <[Mode]Aileen> It's okay, no permanent damage done at least.
  661. 06[01:53] * [Mode]Aileen "Though maybe a bit of psychological trauma," she says with a playful tone.
  662. 06[01:57] * [Dune]Iniuria is hit with a double-dose of guilt despite Aileen's comment.
  663. [02:00] <[Mode]Aileen> Are you full at least?
  664. 06[02:00] * [Mode]Aileen rubs Iniuria's back consolingly, considering she looks pretty upset.
  665. 06[02:02] * [Dune]Iniuria makes a tiny nod, her face still being concealed by her own hair while her throat tightens.
  666. 06[02:05] * [Dune]Iniuria : (I-i did that, thinking... and nearly hurt her, and...)
  667. 06[02:07] * [Dune]Iniuria is still exceedingly upset with her presently bloodstained self.
  668. [02:08] <[Mode]Aileen> Ah, you got covered in blood too...
  669. 06[02:08] * [Mode]Aileen looks down at herself as well. Seems they're both quite soaked in it.
  670. [02:09] <[Mode]Aileen> Well, this could be a bit problematic for others to see. At least in my case I could wash my stuff out right here and change in my room.
  671. 06[02:10] * [Dune]Iniuria twirls a little bit of her hair which has been bloodstained as well worriedly.
  672. 01[02:11] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14y-yeah...
  673. 06[02:11] * [Dune]Iniuria barely manages to choke out the words.
  674. 01[02:12] <[Dune]Iniuria> 14i-i...
  675. 06[02:12] * [Dune]Iniuria stops speaking.
  676. [02:13] <[Mode]Aileen> This is a pretty big mess...
  677. 06[02:13] * [Mode]Aileen lifts Iniuria from her lap and stands up, lifting the now bloodstained towel up as well.
  678. [02:14] <[Mode]Aileen> Hold on for a second.
  679. 06[02:14] * [Dune]Iniuria nods again, and sits down against the side of the tub.
  680. 06[02:15] * [Mode]Aileen heads out of the bathroom, back into her room, and spends some time fishing through an old chest sitting against the wall she uses to keep clothes in. She returns a minute later, carrying a large t shirt and grabs more towels from the rack near the door.
  681. [02:16] <[Mode]Aileen> Alright then, clothes off, you're getting a bath.
