  1. Session Start: Thu Dec 10 00:00:00 2015 Session Ident: #TheWand&Circlet
  2.  
  3. The pub's door opens up as two girls walk into the hall, both wearing white overcoat-like-uniforms, their heads shielded by hoods. Both looked relatively young and short and while one sported black curly locks of hair sticking out of the garb's openings and blue eyes, the second, green eyed girl had it all hidden.
  4.  
  5. Morse gently tugs on her hood, pulling it off and breathing the warmer air, "... well, this is the place.", the girl said, letting her shoulder length hair splay over her shoulders.
  6.  
  7. Moto adjusts her glasses to give the dingy place a look over, hesitating to bring her hood back as her companion had. "... S-seems so. It doesn't look like what I was expecting," she replies softly, dubiously looking over at the assorted occupants. "... But first impressions aren't always the best for this kind of thing..."
  8.  
  9. "You never know...", Morse shrugged, "... but it's closer than Jane's, so..." she said and started to walk closer to the pub, glancing over the pub dwellers for a moment, "Lets see what's on the menu."
  10.  
  11. Moto stays still for a moment, gaze caught on the crew in the corner, before she speeds up to click-click her heels against the floor catching up to Morse. "A-ah.. Not at a booth?... Well... It's alright. I ate, anyway," as her tummy gives a little grumble of the obvious lie. "... I'll have a drink with you, though. I need it after looking over all those logs."
  12.  
  13. "I've been itching to drink something warm after running around for an entire day." Morse seemed to have a slight Germanic undertone in her accent. Sitting down next to the counter, the girl noticed two twins and their wave... returning one to them with a 'hm' and waiting for Moto to settle down.
  14.  
  15. Moto is glad Morse handled the returned greetings, sliding onto the barstool and crossing her legs at the heel, very femininely, and after a pause removes her hood to reveal a prim style of light green hair pulled into a sloppy bun at the back of her head, stray hairs giving it a spiked up appearance. "You don't say, heh... They've had us on double, even triple shifts. It's -- been a while," and she gives a small laugh, turning to the bar tender to order some sort of juniper cocktail. "Not that I mind putting the time in... but you know."
  16.  
  17. Morse turns around to face the bar as the other girl settled up, "Naturally. It's difficult to predict when things hit the fan, and frankly--", she settles her elbows on the wooden surface, pulling one of the menus closer to herself, "-- that's something for the muscle to take care off.", she sniffed and side glanced at Moto. "I'd rather had those delivered over channels, but yeah-- heh.", cracking up a tiny smile and before she returned back to browsing.
  18.  
  19. <Moto> "O-Of course! I didn't mean to, ah, imply your department wasn't.... Well. Well." She sniffles and adjusts her glasses, gazing at Morse over their tortoiseshell rim. "... It's just. The frequency of these.. collapses... is alarming, to say the least. At the station, we're underhanded... I'm not sure if it's the same at your place?"
  20.  
  21. Morse wasn't as feminine as Moto... even for her young look, the girl seemed to talk in a sonorous, stingy way as if she was in the hurry, her body language being rigid, precise... if not a bit 'mechanical' "I know... These last several months?", she said and looked at Moto, "They've been hell on the response teams. Some of the guys from the upper chapter had to be requalified for the field work. Not that the protocol doesn't allows that for emergencies, but... you can guess what sentiments are a brewin' among others."
  22.  
  23. Moto shakes her head with a sigh, the cocktail arriving in a nicely fluted glass which she holds delicately between forefinger and thumb, bringing it to her lips."More than months, really... But I will say times must be trying for all of us in that case. Is that why -- ah, you never met my supervisor-- well. I've been promoted, so to speak, to cover his absence. They don't tell us these things... I suppose we should just know by now, but still.. It's the sentiment of the thing."
  24.  
  25. Morse tsks and looks at the bar lady, "I'll have some of this mulled wine, please." she pointed at the menu with one of her hand while the other one pulled out neatly folded banknote, passing it over the counter to her, adding as the bar lady was about to move away "-- oh, if you have take away cups, I'll take one in them." she said and switched her attention to Moto, "A promotion, eh?", Morse smiled, "Congratulations with that... and welcome to a bureaucratic hell." she said with a yawn, "Though, I can't say I envy you at this time. Heh~"
  26. Morse stretched her arms in front of her, "Anyway... what about this recent event? Any differences from other spacial collapses on the record?"
  27.  
  28. <Moto> "Please... You know how it is, all it means for me is watching over training and do even more paperwork than I already have to..." She rolls her eyes, delicately sampling another sip from her drink. "I have some of the read-outs here. You can give them a look if you'd like - well, ah. I insist, actually. We have at least three recorded similarties in my section's database," she emphasizes the 'my', "- maybe you can do something about that?" Moto runs a hand into the innards of her white uniform, and produces a small manila packet which she passes to Morse.
  29.  
  30. Morse brings the package closer to herself, letting it rest in front of her, "Hm. I'll take a look over it." heh.. insisting... "What worries me is that more and more of these portals have been... well... closing up. Statistically speaking...", the girl ran her finger of the package, "No idea what is going--- Some were pressuring white one's into diverging information, but they've been rather tight lipped on it."
  31.  
  32. Morse's voice lowered a little bit, "... what will happen if it will spread to the Overcity...?" She didn't like that thought one bit, but the plastic cup with a warm drink would soothe it. At least she hoped so.
  33.  
  34. Moto smiles shyly to her companion, giving a clink as the other girl's libation arrived - or a hollow thunk, given the to-go cup, as she agrees to give it a look. One thing to mark off the ever growing Backlog... So that's one success! But her expression sombers. "Well - has your -- have you, finished the model experiments of what the aftereffects will be?" The girl pauses. "That was you, right? S-sorry, I get, ah, the 'current' experiments mixed up at times.."
  35.  
  36. Morse 's lips tightened up at that one, "-- not... not me alone, no, Ji's was productive on suggestions, but... well...", the girl scratched her cheek at the thought, "There's... nothing really out there... 'in', I mean. Field experiments haven't been fruitful and occasional losses are still a problem."
  37.  
  38. Moto looks a bit panicked at the sound of glass and rumbling, leaning in a bit closer to Morse while scanning for the noise - mm... Seems to be retreating. Relieved, she exhales a puffy gust of breath, only to sigh as the other spoke more. "I see... So it will be a continuous issue for us, unless we get a miracle, right.."
  39. "The isolated cases are horrorshow enough, but if they spread here too..." Moto shakes her head.
  40.  
  41. Morse sighs, "At least accidents are not as bad as they used to, but it feels that we're dealing with a literal breakdown of fundamental laws, you know...-- a platonic ideal of of nothingness?", the girl sniffed, "How the hell are we supposed to measure that... "
  42.  
  43. Moto stares at Morse and finishes the last of her drink, chugging it, but with her demeanor, the action seemed fitting and not overly masculine. She dabs at the corner of her mouth with a bar-provided napkin of a coaster. "If that is the case, all we can do is try to weather through it. Observe, record, and hopefully we'll find some kind of key to it all...""If we don't..." The phrase is left hanging in the air.
  44.  
  45. Morse chuckles darkly at the thought as she took a sip out of the cup, "Weather. Opening portals into those pockets sure brings some of it out, ugh." She frowns and sips some more, "If this place connects everything together, then Overcity's collapse would-- *sigh*"
  46.  
  47. Moto pulls a wry smile and lets a finger delicately push at her scalp, easing the pulled tension the bun style brought. "... Yes.I'll regret that choice of words when pouring over all those files later tonight... mm..."
  48. [12:10:18:12] <Moto> "Is it still -- well, ah, my information is so out of date on these things, sorry M, really..."
  49. [12:10:18:13] <Moto> "Are any of the chapters still operating based on the idea that things done here will be.. undone? Retroactively fixed, I believe was the term for Overcity specifically."
  50.  
  51. Morse caught up an exclamation from one of tables behind her, looking over her shoulder for a moment as Moto was speaking, "You'll have to ask one of the Fellowship's Admins about that...", she said and looked back to Moto, "And that assumption... I don't entirely agree with it... unless puchuu have something in store. It's a good stance... cautious stance... mm...", the more she thought about it, the more she was actually agreeing with the policy...
  52.  
  53. Moto tucks another strand of hair back into place, and adjusts her glasses to match. "...Is that so? I trust your judgment on these things though, M. How couldn't I after what you did for me?" Looking a bit wistful, she tentatively lays a hand on the other's shoulder, just a press, before retracting it back. "I'll ask when I have the chance... And speaking of Admins, I think it's time I get back."
  54.  
  55. Moto sighs. "Another double shift again today... Lunch again soon, alright? When we can compare notes more.. ah..."
  56.  
  57. Morse stretches her arms in front of her, picking the plastic cup with one hand and wrapping her other one around the package, "These shifts remind me about all-nighters at this point." the girl sipped out of the cup and stood up, "At this rate they might as well dress us in the gear and send to the closest anomaly for a 'break'."
  58.  
  59. Moto giggles softly under her breath, she always did appreciate that about the other she knew as a friend. "Hush, don't give them any ideas.." and sliding some currency across to pay her tab, she stands, pulling the white hood over her minty locks. "Don't be a stranger, M... I don't want the next chat we have to be under these circumstances, even if that seems to be the pattern for us..."
  60. Moto rolls her eyes; as if fate would be that kind, the other girl would know the irony behind this all. " 'Til the next anomaly."
  61.  
  62. "It's less of an idea... but your 'heads' really should authorize independent mercs, especially with our shitty manpower.", she sipped out of the cup some more, pulling the hood over, "Vet them, give them procedures, maybe one of the polit-tier-goons on site. There's shit ton of work as it is."
  63. Morse nods to Moto and 'cheers' with her warm wine-filled plastic cup, "Stay safe! Hopefully another anomaly won't be the reason for a lounge meet."
  64. Moto tsks lightly, "If they'd take my suggestions, well, things would be different, that's for sure. If they took yours for that matter... Farewell for now," she gives the girl a wave goodbye, the energy seeming to seep from the assistant girl even as she turns and departs.
  65. Morse waves to Moto as the girl departs from the pub... taking her seat back... just warming up with her drink.
  66.  
  67. ---
  68.  
  69. Morse rested where was, sipping on her drink and casually listening to other patrons as she puts the satchel away, under her coat
  70. [12:10:18:58] <Claudia_> "Sweden and Norway reunited in the 60's, around the time of the Second World Partition, in order to maintain their independence from the Great Powers. Denmark soon joined, and they basically reformed the old Kalmar Union. Once they developed nuclear weapons, the Kalmar Union was able to establish itself as a lesser Great Power. Denmark, Norway and Sweden still have separate legal
  71. [12:10:18:58] <Claudia_> systems and everything, but they're nominally the same country, just so that they can compete on a global level like the other Great Powers.
  72. [12:10:18:58] <Claudia_> It's lucky they did, otherwise they probably would've been divided between Germany and Russia.
  73. [12:10:18:58] <Claudia_> ""*
  74. [12:10:19:01] <Morgana_Aurora> "Woah." "What about... the middle east? That sandy area with the oil."
  75. [12:10:19:03] <Claudia_> "The Ottoman Empire collapsed in the Five Years' War, and the whole region was divided between the Great Powers. The region remains divided to this day."
  76. [12:10:19:05] <Morgana_Aurora> "That's an upgrade over my world." "I bet if your Reich communicated with my world they'ed largely capitulate. But then your world would be poisoned by the stupidity of part of my world....Hmmm."
  77. [12:10:19:07] <Claudia_> "That sounds interesting... you say your world would capitulate? How might one get there, might I ask?"
  78. [12:10:19:09] <Morgana_Aurora> "I can take you ladies, but I'm not certain magical creatures do well there. Let me try and experiment first, I'll bring you if it works out."
  79. [12:10:19:10] <Morgana_Aurora> "I'll capture some magical creatures and take em to my world. If it goes smoothly, then you've got an invitation."
  80. [12:10:19:10] <Claudia_> "If it doesn't work out, we can always send non-magical Reichsoldaten!"
  81. 02[12:10:19:11] * Morse frowns to herself as her last sip emptied the cup.... The white overcoated girl listed off her place and proceeded to walk out to the exit, passing the certain group of two with a comment, "Playing politics, world destructions and lives of others, I see?", giving a bit of a scoof at them as she continued to the exit, "Idiots..."
  82. [12:10:19:12] <Morgana_Aurora> "Reichsoldiers? Yeah. I guess the tough part would be convincing them that the threat exists.. A big group of Germans showing up someplace random, on camera, would work. What do their uniforms look like?"
  83. [12:10:19:14] <Claudia_> "National Pride is of utmost importance on my world. We wear uniforms very similar to those of our Prussian ancestors. We have these awesome helmets, too, I can't wait 'till you get to see them!"
  84. 02[12:10:19:15] * Morse clicked with her tongue as two girls seemingly ignored her and stepped closer to the door, shifting the backage under her robe
  85. [12:10:19:15] <Morgana_Aurora> "Do they have a point on the top?"
  86. [12:10:19:15] <Morgana_Aurora> "Don't pretend like we're in the wrong, stranger"
  87. [12:10:19:16] <Morgana_Aurora> "You wanna come over here and make passiev aggressive comments, that shit doesn't mean anything."
  88. [12:10:19:16] <Morgana_Aurora> [I wasn't sure how to play it, seeing as the back corner table is as far fromt he bar as it is possible to be]
  89. [12:10:19:16] <Claudia_> "Yep! They're so cool!" Claudia giggled, ignoring the sickeningly unpatriotic and likely Communist girl who dared mock a German.
  90. [12:10:19:17] <Claudia_> (sorry, that Communist thing is a big deal on Claudia's world)
  91. [12:10:19:17] <Claudia_> (hehe)
  92. 02[12:10:19:19] * Morse could only smirk at twins, "Speaking too boldly for a mutt who wants to bring in a collapse of own world and many lives. Alas--". she turns away and opened the door, "-- when empathy sleeps, idiocy has no bounds."
  93. 02[12:10:19:19] * Morse giggled to herself and with a click of the door, walked out of the establishment
  94. 02[12:10:19:20] * Morgana_Aurora gets up, heading for the door, fists already primed
  95. 02[12:10:19:20] * Morgana_Aurora white light washes over them as their outfits and weapons appear.
  96. [12:10:19:21] <Claudia_> Claudia and her friends turned around and whispered amongst themselves for a brief few moments before quietly getting up and sneaking out of the pub, taking several photos as they went.
  97. 02[12:10:19:22] * Morse walked out of the establishment, breathing in the Overcity's air... hm... t'was cold...
  98. [12:10:19:23] <Claudia_> Claudia and her friends took selfies and other photos all around the Overcity buildings, making sure to capture pictures of all the magical beings inhabiting the city. After that, they went back home, giggling, through their portal.
  99. [12:10:19:25] <Morgana_Aurora> The door clicks open behind her. Two young women glaring at her "You calling us mutts you fucking bitch?" One of them says, ignoring how cliche it sounds.
  100. 02[12:10:19:28] * Morse brushed her palms together while she was looking away... "You've just confirmed it yourself. Nothing like a sting that jabs the pissed one's heart? Heheh.", the odd girl merrily chuckles at the thought and proceeds to walk away in a slow, leisurely pace
  101. [12:10:19:29] <Morgana_Aurora> [not sure how to stay true to the characters impulses without breaking the fighting rules]
  102. [12:10:19:30] <Morse> [She's outside the pub, so... there are no wards]
  103. [12:10:19:31] <Morgana_Aurora> "You just lack the will to fight. You probably let your enemies walk all over you. I'd much rather be a dog with teeth and a coward to scared to do anything"
  104. [12:10:19:31] <Morgana_Aurora> (than a coward. fuck)
  105. [12:10:19:31] <Morgana_Aurora> [that was a bad mistake, really changed the whole context]
  106. [12:10:19:34] <Morgana_Aurora> [be back in a few, the rainstopped]
  107. [12:10:19:34] <Morse> "You're right. Intelligent people don't need to fight, child." the girl said with a yawn and looked back at two over her shoulder with a disiterested eyes, "Nor they keep enemy that they can't deal with as nuisance"
  108. 02[12:10:19:41] * Morse maintained a soft, if not sardonic smile, "Frankly, you can always give them time to fuck something up for themselves...", but her smile vanished away, "Until invasions, subjugations, slavery and repression come into play, yes. Gullible.", she shrugged and resumed to walk
  109. [12:10:19:42] <Morgana_Aurora> [back]
  110. [12:10:19:44] <Morgana_Aurora> "Fool. Only an idiot thinks they can remove themselves from the reality of a situation." "You talk about slavery and rape as if they are the inevitable product of violence. You ignore that violence is the most basic defense against them, the first one and the last one." "Now get your ass back here."
  111. [12:10:19:46] <Tian> The white robbed girl continued to move away, giggling at their words
  112. [12:10:19:48] <Tian> "You two should go back and drink some. Suuure does helps with those nerves and burning bums.~"
  113. [12:10:19:48] <Tian> [woah - wrong one]
  114. [12:10:19:48] <Morse> The white robbed girl continued to move away, giggling at their words "You two should go back and drink some. Suuure does helps with those nerves and burning bums.~"
  115. [12:10:19:49] <Morgana_Aurora> The girls moved up behind her, legs striking out in unison, each aimed at the back of knee. [No idea how you'd dodge that, but whatever]
  116. [12:10:19:50] <Morse> 5Roll STR
  117. [12:10:19:50] <Morgana_Aurora> [guess I know who is playing them]
  118. [12:10:19:50] <Morgana_Aurora> [sahara system? ]
  119. [12:10:19:51] <Morse> [yup]
  120. [12:10:19:51] <Morgana_Aurora> !ex 6 vs 7
  121. [12:10:19:51] <Morgana_Aurora> [shit how does internets roller work?]
  122. [12:10:19:51] <Morse> [non KekRollers... seems like we'll have to do .d]
  123. [12:10:19:52] <Morse> [.d 5d10
  124. [12:10:19:52] <Morgana_Aurora> [okay]

  134. [12:10:19:54] <Morse> [you'll see]
  135. [12:10:19:54] <Claudia_> (24 in one stat?)
  136. [12:10:19:54] <Morgana_Aurora> [didn't' even think you were transformed]
  137. [12:10:19:55] <Morgana_Aurora> [two attacks, roll twice]
  138. [12:10:19:55] <Morgana_Aurora> [not that you can fail]
  139. 02[12:10:19:56] * Morse would've felt something happening behind of her and would've leaned in... forward...... but her motions haven't been doing anything special... as two twins would try to hit the uniformed girl with their legs... their legs would accidentaly slid against a tiny patch of ice. Roll AGI to maintain balance
  140. [12:10:19:57] <Morgana_Aurora> [an ice mage?]
  141. [12:10:19:57] <Morse> [nop]
  142. [12:10:19:57] <Morgana_Aurora> [i'll just use their wings]
  143. [12:10:19:58] <Morgana_Aurora> [or would that even make sense...]
  144. [12:10:19:58] <Morse> [sure, use 'em, that's an option]
  145. [12:10:19:58] <Morgana_Aurora> [guess it depends on how the fall goes. whatever]
  146. [12:10:19:59] <Morse> [so you'll try to maintain balance using winds, etc... continue with RP]
  147. [12:10:20:00] <Morgana_Aurora> Lifting off with a few powerful wing beats, the two take to the air. Puzzled at the unlikely coincidence, thinking it likely some sort of trick.
  148. [12:10:20:01] <Morgana_Aurora> [your turn]
  149. 02[12:10:20:02] * Morse took a step forward and stopped, hearing that something was happening behind her. Morse slowly turned her head around to see two twins (?) who aparently closed in on her, now flapping their wings, "Huh.", with a shrug the girl turned away and continued to walk, seemingly unphased by their presence.
  150. [12:10:20:04] <Morgana_Aurora> "Why are you being such a passive aggressive condescending bitch?" "God damn it."
  151. [12:10:20:06] <Morse> "I could ask the same to you, child. Don't you have anything better to do at the pub... Drinking down your sorrows and incompetency while and plotting how to fuck over yet another world? " the girl said with a neutral voice, "Playing in a sandbox is interesting... for some. Heh."
  152. 02[12:10:20:08] * Morse smiled sardonically once again while she walked, sniffing the chilly air
  153. 03[12:10:20:09] * Skinny_Necro (~Prime@Rizon-B6FFC86A.hsd1.or.comcast.net) has joined #TheWand&Circlet
  154. [12:10:20:09] <Skinny_Necro> [would this be a dash attack, i doubt they are significantly far appart]
  155. 03[12:10:20:09] * Skinny_Necro is now known as Morg_Aurora
  156. [12:10:20:10] <Morse> [If they are flying... well -- dashing in first seems like an option, given that she's moving away from two of 'em]

  159. [12:10:20:13] <Morse> -
  160. [12:10:20:14] <Morg_Aurora> Itching for combat and having found a volunteer, Morgana moves in to provoke, fist headed for a shot to the spine.

  166. 02[12:10:20:16] * Morse was walking as she was, through something... a little breeze from behind, made her stop........... and the step aside just in time when the other girl was about to bash her, making the offender not only miss, but almost slip down.
  167. [12:10:20:17] <Morg_Aurora> "Hmmm. Maybe luck is real."
  168. 02[12:10:20:19] * Morse raised her brow a bit at the aggressive girl, "... careful there. You don't want to smash your assets against an asphalt. Heheh.", the girl chuckled a bit and similar to what she was doing, continued to walk onwards
  169. 02[12:10:20:21] * Morse 's pristine white overcoat was flapping and bristling against chilly winds as the girl searched for a way, not paying much of an attention the 'other' silent one
  170. [12:10:20:22] <Morg_Aurora> "Don't act like you give a damn."
  171. [12:10:20:24] <Morg_Aurora> Moving too slow to fly easily, the two drop down. Sure, they'll probably be tripped up again by some 'lucky' accident, but whatever. They move to follow the girl, keeping a few feet behind.
  172. [12:10:20:27] <Morse> "Oh child... there are many 'damn's to give. and many damn's to share... All I wa--*yawn*----s saying is that it's idiotic to, hmm... what will you understand, uh.... get off? That it's idiotic to get off from things like supremacy , subjugation, control.. when there are more urgent matters to attend to.", the black haired girl sniffed, "That entire mingling by the bar smelled of two kids rubbing their palms and squeeing from fantasies."
  173. [12:10:20:30] <Morg_Aurora> "You are an idiot. In what way is seeking outside assistance masturbatory? You want me to give up on saving the nicest people in my world? Would you stand by and let their freedom be stripped away?" Her voice is a mix of frustration and accusation.
  174. 02[12:10:20:34] * Morse heh'd "Sure. Assistance..... you have a clear operative who wants to get a promotion. A little badge that is worth less than nothing.", the girl said and looked back at two of them, "Do you really think it is smart to bring in any 'imperial' brigades, those who are hungry for lands, into Overcity? Pfff... fools."
  175. [12:10:20:36] <Claudia_> "...and this is the Overcity pub!" an excited Claudia declared to the Reichsoldaten of the Overcity Expeditionary Force. "This is where all of the magical girls go to hang out!"
  176. [12:10:20:37] <Morg_Aurora> "Overcity is a no man's land. If that changes as a by product I don't care. You really have no idea what I'm talking about." "Just another self absorbed armchair philosopher with no useful grasp of reality. You sicken me."
  177. [12:10:20:38] <Morg_Aurora> Turning away in disgust the two mumble to each other, too disgusted to remain silent.
  178. [12:10:20:39] <Claudia_> "Hey, it's Morgana, Aurora and that girl who was mocking our Reich before! Should we go over to them?" Claudia asked Officer Albert von Starhemberg.
  179. 02[12:10:20:39] * Morse giggles at Morg's words, "Freeing own people through imperial mandates? Well, you can do that, but remember about your own redundancy.... don't be a tool." the girl smiled back at two of them, "As for nor caring about Overcity--- well--- it's a no man's zone for a reason"
  180. [12:10:20:42] <Morg_Aurora> They don't see her smile because they don't look back, having already dismissed her . Each answering instead with a certain vulgar gesture.
  181. [12:10:20:42] <Claudia_> The German soldiers, led by Claudia, Julia and Elizabeth, walked over to the arguing girls. "Where you saying something about our Reich, little girl?" Claudia spat.
  182. [12:10:20:43] <Claudia_> (don't worry, there are only about 10 soldiers)
  183. [12:10:20:43] <Morg_Aurora> "She hates when people are willing to fight for what they believe in."
  184. [12:10:20:45] <Claudia_> "Some kind of Communist, is she? She's lucky she's here and not on my world, or else she'd be hanged."
  185. [12:10:20:45] <Claudia_> "What's your name, Communist?"
  186. [12:10:20:45] <Morg_Aurora> The two sisters move around either side of the group of soldiers, looking them over. Silently judging the beauty and practicality of their unifoms and armaments. The way the soldiers held their heads, etc.
  187. [12:10:20:45] <Morg_Aurora> "Not a communist, just a fool."
  188. 02[12:10:20:46] * Morse smirked at them, wrapping an arm out from her pristine white uniform-of-an-overcoat, looking between the assembled lot like they were clowns--- and upon mention of communism couldn't contain a chuckle ... "Ah, sillies...", she shook her head and once again proceeded to move away, "Call me when you're acting as intelligent human beings and not mutts"
  189. [12:10:20:47] <Claudia_> Claudia casts Crush; 3 MP, boosted 3 times, total cost 6 MP
  190. [12:10:20:47] <Morse> "That being said for those who converse, of course... no offense, soldiers."
  191. [12:10:20:47] <Claudia_> !ex 12 vs 7
  192. [12:10:20:47] <KekRoller> Claudia_: [4, 6, 7, 8, 2, 6, 4, 6, 3, 3, 1, 10]. Successes total: 4

  195. [12:10:20:48] <Morg_Aurora> "Notice the poor fool's penchant for nonsequiter insults. Maybe she's pissed off at something else." They seem pleased with the soldiers, but dissapointed in the gaudy uniforms.
  196. 02[12:10:20:48] * Morse glanced back right at Claudia with piercing eyes and a smiling expression... as something else waas...
  197. [12:10:20:49] <Morse> 5Reroll
  198. [12:10:20:49] <Claudia_> "Expeditionary troops' uniforms focus more on appearance than practicality"

  203. 02[12:10:20:53] * Morse stared at Claudia as she was trying to crush her with magic... but.... fluctuations becan to fill in the incantation, making it barely controllable, something that Claudia herself would feel, the magic for some reason becoming uncontrollable---- and only barely barely would she be able to defuse the situation.
  204. [12:10:20:54] <Morg_Aurora> [that didn't clear things up]
  205. [12:10:20:54] <Claudia_> (so we were just rerolling?)
  206. [12:10:20:54] <Morg_Aurora> [hell if i know, thought it might be bouncing back or something]
  207. [12:10:20:55] <Claudia_> (yeah, me too)
  208. [12:10:20:55] <Morse> [The attack got locked up, but wasn't overloaded to cause a backlash at Claudia]
  209. [12:10:20:56] <Morg_Aurora> [what is this locked up?]
  210. [12:10:20:57] <Morg_Aurora> [what did I see? Claudia cast a spell, morse looked it to death?]
  211. [12:10:20:57] <Claudia_> "Next time you might not be so lucky. Watch your mouth when you're speaking to soldiers of the Reich, and that includes Reichsmagischmädels."
  212. [12:10:20:57] <Morse> [Claudia attacks -> mors turns back and the spell 'locks in', in mid-execution, not doing nothing]
  213. [12:10:20:58] <Morg_Aurora> [okay, so turning around counterspelled the effect. That's interesting.]
  214. 02[12:10:20:59] * Morse stood there and stared at Claudia and the group... scoffing kiddos away she turns away and resumes to walk... frankly, these exercises were slowly warming her up, "I could care less about your reich fetishes, kid.... this land is not yours to claim and if you'll be good children, you'll return where you came from."
  215. [12:10:20:59] <Claudia_> (how old is Morse?)
  216. [12:10:20:59] <Morse> [physically looks like a 13 years old]
  217. [12:10:21:00] <Claudia_> (Claudia's 15, but Underdeveloped)
  218. [12:10:21:00] <Claudia_> "Might I ask who /does/ own this land?"
  219. [12:10:21:01] <Morg_Aurora> "Child this, child that. What a boring person."
  220. [12:10:21:06] <Morse> "Singing to the choir~", she said and stopped for the first time, glancing back at the little group, bearing a serious expression, "You can go and rape other words for as much as you please, but don't expect that you'll keep your heads for long. It's only pragmatic to say that all the murders that you shall bring in the name of you funny Santa Clause believes, ideologies... population
  221. [12:10:21:06] <Morse> control? Repressions?", the girl chuckles heartily, "Scum's the one who forgets about their children and children of others or brainwashes them with polit-crap."
  222. [12:10:21:07] <Morg_Aurora> "Maybe you should tell that to the children I'm trying to save."
  223. 03[12:10:21:07] * Tangent (~qwebirc@Rizon-DA34E161.hsd1.ma.comcast.net) has joined #TheWand&Circlet
  224. [12:10:21:07] <Morg_Aurora> "Go talk to them, ask them why no one else will protect them."
  225. [12:10:21:09] <Morg_Aurora> "Or explain, just how exactly their tears are worth less than the fake tears of the people raping them." "I can't explain it."
  226. 02[12:10:21:09] * Morse sniffs, "You're dealing with an imperial machine... what do you expect it wants the most? ... I don't think saving children would be their upmost long priority..... all while there are other groups who can lend a hand and assistance..."
  227. [12:10:21:10] <Claudia_> "We're not here to waste time with filthy anarchists. We came to assess the suitability of this area for German colonisation, and it seems that if all that stands in our way is a few little girls, this city will soon be German. You act like you're saving children, but you're living in an anarchy of a city where children are forced to fight to their deaths against inhuman beasts. We're
  228. [12:10:21:10] <Claudia_> here to put an end to that. We'll bring you civilisation whether you like it or not."
  229. [12:10:21:10] <Morg_Aurora> "No one in my world will. You obviously are too high and mighty, madam condescension"
  230. [12:10:21:13] <Morse> 6A whispery giggle spreadout between girls as a dark feline-like shadow came into life, poofing into existence, its body levitating above the assembled as it observed they with glowing purple orbs, "Me--ow~"

  232. [12:10:21:15] <Claudia_> "You see, that's what I mean. Who even knows what that is. Some kind of cat monster thing? You think those things should be allowed to just roam free and do whatever they like? You think that's safe?"
  233. [12:10:21:16] <Morg_Aurora> "Hold on, being a shadow and saying meow isn't a crime and it certainly isn't hurting us. Just be on guard until we figure it out."
  234. [12:10:21:17] <Morg_Aurora> "Don't get panicy just because we might get our shit wrecked."
  235. [12:10:21:17] <Morg_Aurora> [you mentioned ice earlier, what is the temp like?]
  236. [12:10:21:17] <11Ai-n> 'This was.. odd..' a presence thinks to itself - well - herself, really; invisible to the naked eye and observing the events while floating above the snow, body tucked against a side of the building.
  237. 02[12:10:21:17] * Morse haven't paid attention to the purple glow, eyes focusing on Morgana, "You wouldn't be saying something like that if you'd conform and buy into bullshit...", the girl looks up at the shadowy creature..... with a deep frown spreading over her features, before turning away and starts to leave, "I have reports and measurements to go through. What I would suggest is for the Reich
  238. 02[12:10:21:17] * Morse party and its head clown is to find other places to search through.... unless you want to invite things into your worlds..."
  239. [12:10:21:17] <06DrEvilKitteh> (Probably winter-ish.)
  240. [12:10:21:17] <Tangent> (Is this RP open to everyone?)
  241. [12:10:21:18] <06DrEvilKitteh> (It's outside the pub.)
  242. [12:10:21:18] <06DrEvilKitteh> (Don't really see why it wouldn't be.)

  244. [12:10:21:19] <Claudia_> (this is getting really edgy)
  245. [12:10:21:19] <Morg_Aurora> "Shut up you. Don't pretend like you know everything about us just to inuslt us to turn around and act like you care. Get outta here."
  246. [12:10:21:19] <Claudia_> (we're rapidly approaching edgehog-levels)
  247. [12:10:21:20] <Morg_Aurora> [those old games were pretty fun]
  248. [12:10:21:20] <Morse> 6The dark, shadowy, faceless cat-of-a-creature giggled with an ethereal windy voice..... but listening to what the other girl just said, chuckled even more
  249. [12:10:21:20] <Claudia_> "I think we've seen enough" von Starhemberg said boredly. Come on boys, time to go home."
  250. [12:10:21:21] <Claudia_> ("Come on*)
  251. [12:10:21:21] <Morg_Aurora> [aww yes, let's have the cat laugh at people too. It's like all the charaters are actually children]
  252. [12:10:21:21] <Claudia_> Claudia was lucky she'd managed to convince her Dad and his historical re-enactment club friends to come with her to the Overcity at all, but it seemed that this encounter was boring them to death.

  255. [12:10:21:23] <Morg_Aurora> [wouldn't they go into the pub first?]
  256. [12:10:21:23] <Morg_Aurora> [nevermind me, just wondering]
  257. [12:10:21:23] <06Razum> 6Two little fangs and a glowing-line-of-a-smile flickered over creature's face, its glowing eye-orbs staring and observing those who were present... but mostly... that Claudia girl.
  258. [12:10:21:24] <Claudia_> [hmm nah, it's too late and they probably assumed it was a play-pub or something, considering that it's meant to be full of little girls]
  259. [12:10:21:24] <Morg_Aurora> [haha]
  260. [12:10:21:25] <06Razum> 14While the white-uniformed girl waved back without taking her attention from the satchel that she carried, walking in into one of the portals
  261. [12:10:21:26] <Morg_Aurora> Being dressed entirely wrong for this cold weather, the twins each summon long coats.
  262. [12:10:21:26] <06Razum> 6The curious dark creature however, smiling or not would shadow the odd Reich group to the portal
  263. [12:10:21:26] <Claudia_> "Wait, Vater, that cat thing won't stop staring at me!"
  264. [12:10:21:27] <06Razum> 6"I n d e e d~"
  265. [12:10:21:27] <Morg_Aurora> "I've seen that before.... It was being weird in the bar."
  266. [12:10:21:27] <Claudia_> (s-shut up! baka!)
  267. [12:10:21:27] <Claudia_> (to Razum, sry Morg)
  268. [12:10:21:27] <Claudia_> "Do you know what it is?"
  269. [12:10:21:28] <Morg_Aurora> "Um, I think it is an evil spirt of some power."
  270. [12:10:21:28] <06Razum> 6The smoke-made, ethereal critter answered in a whispery voice, "N o w n o w, I ' m h e r e y o u k n o w~~ H o o o w r u d e~"
  271. [12:10:21:28] <Morg_Aurora> "There was another occurence with something that may have been it, wherein a classic sign of evil manifested."
  272. [12:10:21:29] <Morg_Aurora> One twin turning to address it asks "Are you an evil spirit?"
  273. [12:10:21:30] <Morg_Aurora> [Morse bailed?]
  274. 02[12:10:21:30] * Razum 6giggles at all their words, its voice slowly becoming less echo--5 "You humans amaze me sometimes, more so when others offer a bowl of milk, meow~!"
  275. [12:10:21:30] <06Razum> [Yup
  276. [12:10:21:31] <Claudia_> "So, you're not evil or anything?" Claudia asked the cat, much less confident than she had been around Morse.
  277. [12:10:21:32] <Morg_Aurora> "That isn't a no. It's a dodge."
  278. [12:10:21:32] <Morg_Aurora> "When you dodge a yes or no question the answer is usually bad."
  279. [12:10:21:33] <06Razum> 5"An evil spirit? No, not at all.", the feline purred out as it jumped down on the ground, letting it roll in lil'' bits of whiteness, "Because I'm not a spirit, hehe!~ Some~one haven't heard about Overcity Shorthairs, nya~"
  280. [12:10:21:33] <Claudia_> Claudia froze in place, her bravado utterly gone. "M-maybe I oughta go home then. Wait for me, Vater!"
  281. [12:10:21:33] <06Razum> 5A happy '^^' expression would flicker over its face
  282. [12:10:21:33] <Claudia_> (dammit, should've read that last post)
  283. [12:10:21:33] <Claudia_> (retcon_
  284. [12:10:21:33] <Claudia_> )
  285. [12:10:21:34] <Claudia_> (actually fk it, it implied it was evil anyway, no retcon)
  286. [12:10:21:34] <Claudia_> Julia and Elizabeth followed Claudia back to their world.
  287. [12:10:21:34] <Claudia_> (I have to go now, stuff to do IRL. C u guys later!)
  288. [12:10:21:34] <Morg_Aurora> "Bye claudia"
  289. [12:10:21:35] <Morg_Aurora> [see ya]
  290. [12:10:21:35] <06Razum> 5The happy sounding critter who spoke with a kitten like voice , "Aaaaaaw'd"....... with a little smirk.... only for it to poof out in a blink.... it was quite curious what portal those humans will pick, meow
  291. [12:10:21:36] <Morg_Aurora> [I'd warn her but she just afk'd]
  292. [12:10:21:36] <06Razum> 5The quirky beast would blink and out, following Claudia and her soldiers, shadowing the portal
  293. [12:10:21:36] <Morg_Aurora> "Cat."
  294. [12:10:21:37] <Morg_Aurora> "Where do you think you are going?"
  295. [12:10:21:38] <06Razum> 5"A-A-Aaaaadventure tiiime!!" it almost exploded from joviality
  296. [12:10:21:38] <Morg_Aurora> "Son of a bitch."
