[PM 7:20:27] Nick Twilight is now known as [twi]_Maidservant. [PM 7:20:34] <[Multi]_Kateb> So I guess the question is, do you guys want to try a box of some kind or try again tomorrow? [PM 7:21:06] <[Co]_Okuu> are the choices mutually exclusive [PM 7:21:10] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I'm fine with anything, so that's entirely up to grant and okuu [PM 7:21:28] <[grant]_Achel> boxes [PM 7:21:39] <[twi]_Maidservant> Boxes mi'lady? [PM 7:22:36] <[Multi]_Kateb> Ah, yes. Are those the uniforms I requested? [PM 7:23:29] <[twi]_Maidservant> Right here Mi'lord. *holds up a stack of clothing* [PM 7:23:45] <[Multi]_Kateb> Very good. Thank you. [PM 7:23:57] * [twi]_Maidservant bows politely [PM 7:24:37] <[Multi]_Kateb> Achel, Adeline, as you have recently acceded to a new station, you have a neew uniform. I'm sorry if they don't quite fit, I guessed at the numbers. [PM 7:25:15] <[Multi]_Kateb> Take a look, see if you like them. [PM 7:25:43] * [Mirr]_Adeline pulls a uniform from the box to inspect it [PM 7:28:01] <[Multi]_Kateb> [[The uniform comprises a deep red shirt with 3/4 sleeves and silver fabric on the choulders simulating epoulettes, embroidered intricately in silver all the way around; a long pair of pants of the same red color with a sliver design (think celtic knot) down the sides; a short, skirt-like frill in red; and a pair of black shoes.]] [PM 7:29:33] * [Mirr]_Adeline stares at the outfit for a moment [PM 7:30:53] <[Mirr]_Adeline> You really expect us to wear this? [PM 7:30:59] <[Multi]_Kateb> Is there a problem? [PM 7:33:54] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I guess if you're ordering us to wear it I don't really have a choice... [PM 7:34:05] <[Multi]_Kateb> If there's a problem, I want to hear it. [PM 7:34:07] * [grant]_Achel examines the uniform more closely [PM 7:35:20] * [Mirr]_Adeline turns to Achel [PM 7:35:25] <[Mirr]_Adeline> So what do you think? [PM 7:36:03] <[grant]_Achel> Hmmm, I think the color is nice. I guess it just depends if it would get in the way of our work. [PM 7:36:59] <[Multi]_Kateb> I intended for them to move freely. Would you like to try them on? [PM 7:38:41] <[Mirr]_Adeline> It wouldn't really do for me to say no, would it? [PM 7:39:29] <[Multi]_Kateb> Adeline, I don't want your position to be more uncomfortable than it has to. If there's some alteration to the uniforms you wish, make it heard. I'm giving you permission to do so. [PM 7:41:10] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I'm not complaining, it's just a little...unexpected [PM 7:42:08] <[Multi]_Kateb> Well, it's true I didn't consider much when I had them comissioned. I sent down a generic order with some estimates. [PM 7:42:47] <[Multi]_Kateb> In truth, I would be surprised if these uniforms were the final issue. There are bound to be some issues with a commision as nebulous as mine was. [PM 7:47:31] * [Mirr]_Adeline sighs [PM 7:48:01] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I guess it wouldn't hurt to just try it on [PM 7:48:23] * [Multi]_Kateb makes a "go ahead, be my guest" motion [PM 7:55:33] * [Mirr]_Adeline steps into the nearest room that would provide some privacy to change [PM 7:55:47] <[Multi]_Kateb> !statroll lck [PM 7:55:48] Kateb rolled a 3: 3 x [2 lck] = 6 [PM 7:56:03] <[Multi]_Kateb> ((So my numbers weren't /too/ bad)) [PM 8:04:00] * [Mirr]_Adeline steps back out into the open [PM 8:04:13] <[Multi]_Kateb> How does it feel, Adeline? [PM 8:05:12] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I guess it's fine, but how does it look? [PM 8:05:43] * [Multi]_Kateb scans Adeline. "Ah, turn around, please." [PM 8:06:22] * [Mirr]_Adeline makes a quick turn around [PM 8:06:42] <[Multi]_Kateb> Well, I think it looks alright. [PM 8:07:12] <[Multi]_Kateb> It might be nice if there were a symbol of some kind on the front. At the moment, it's rather bland. [PM 8:08:01] <[Mirr]_Adeline> That's fine, but I have a question for you [PM 8:08:12] <[Multi]_Kateb> Please, ask. [PM 8:09:19] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Why pants? [PM 8:09:30] <[Multi]_Kateb> Moblility. [PM 8:11:06] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Oh, I see [PM 8:11:17] <[Multi]_Kateb> I thought, also, that they might help preserve your modesty if suddenly called to action. [PM 8:12:38] * [Mirr]_Adeline sighs [PM 8:12:47] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I guess so [PM 8:13:18] <[Multi]_Kateb> You seem displeased at this. [PM 8:13:28] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Do you really expect something serious like that to happen? [PM 8:14:25] <[Multi]_Kateb> I pray it do not. However, one of the main reasons your office has come into being is to be able to react swiftly and decisively if something does happen. [PM 8:17:21] <[Multi]_Kateb> We must be prepared for any eventuality. You and Achel are part of that preparedness. [PM 8:17:29] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Sheesh, you sound so serious when you say things like that [PM 8:19:04] <[Multi]_Kateb> Well, I am serious. [PM 8:19:35] <[Multi]_Kateb> The Coalition is the most important project of my and many others' lives. I cannot treat it lightly. [PM 8:23:13] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I know that, but it doesn't seem like something like this would be such a big deal compared to the other things you do *pulls on the uniform's skirt* [PM 8:25:06] <[Multi]_Kateb> The uniforms themselves aren't earth-shattering, no, but when you start asking about "something serious," I get serious myself. [PM 8:25:50] <[Multi]_Kateb> If you wish, the pants could be made into a long skirt and the frill omitted. [PM 8:26:18] <[Multi]_Kateb> With the understanding, of course, that this will not hinder any descisive action, should it be necessary. [PM 8:30:18] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Of course not [PM 8:30:46] <[Multi]_Kateb> Do you wish the alteration? [PM 8:31:29] <[Mirr]_Adeline> It would be nice, this feels a little...uncomfortable [PM 8:32:52] <[Multi]_Kateb> As you wish. [PM 8:33:17] <[Multi]_Kateb> Besides that, the uniform is to your liking? [PM 8:36:25] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I suppose it'll do [PM 8:36:44] <[Multi]_Kateb> "It'll do." You're not terribly enthusiastic. [PM 8:38:47] * [grant]_Achel returns fully dressed in the uniform, a few swipes here and there to straighten out some of the folds. [PM 8:38:56] <[Mirr]_Adeline> It's just a bit strange having some one tell me what to do after all this time [PM 8:39:49] <[Multi]_Kateb> !statroll lck [PM 8:39:50] Kateb rolled a 6: 6 x [2 lck] = 12 [PM 8:40:00] <[Multi]_Kateb> [[Achel's uniform fits like a charm]] [PM 8:40:45] <[grant]_Achel> It doesn't seem like it would offer that much in terms of protection. Besides that it seems rather nice. [PM 8:41:11] <[Multi]_Kateb> Would you prefer something stouter? [PM 8:42:11] <[grant]_Achel> I suppose asking for armor plates would be too much. [PM 8:42:13] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I don't really feel like it would matter unless you have something that can protect us from magic [PM 8:43:28] <[Multi]_Kateb> Well, Adeline, you're probably the most suited in the castle to enchant these with anti-magic. [PM 8:44:06] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I don't think you want me to do that... [PM 8:44:42] <[Multi]_Kateb> You do specialize in explosions, don't you? [PM 8:46:33] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Hmm? You don't want these to explode do you? [PM 8:47:17] <[Multi]_Kateb> That's the idea. [PM 8:47:56] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I'm not sure I understand what you mean... [PM 8:48:20] <[Multi]_Kateb> I'm sorry, the idea is that I don't want you to enchant them because then they would explode. [PM 8:48:26] <[Multi]_Kateb> That was rather clumsily said. [PM 8:48:53] <[Multi]_Kateb> I will have them sent on to the Palace mages. They ought to be able to come up with something a bit more potent than what we used to have after analyzing the magic sink the Prim Daughters had to deal with. [PM 8:49:19] <[Multi]_Kateb> Armor is out of the question, River would have a fit. [PM 8:49:30] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Right [PM 8:49:36] <[Multi]_Kateb> Technically you two are part of the serving staff. [PM 8:49:43] <[Multi]_Kateb> That's another thing I wanted to talk to you about. [PM 8:50:32] <[Multi]_Kateb> I say "technically," but the truth is your position doesn't officially exist yet. I have yet to make this a terribly public affair, and I really can't until I'f figured out some sort of name for your office. [PM 8:51:04] <[Mirr]_Adeline> So what are you saying? [PM 8:52:00] <[Multi]_Kateb> I wanted to consult with you about the name of your offic. We can't call it the "high guard" or anything of that nature because of its military connotation. It would best pacify their majesties if it suggested some sort of servility, but that would be an affront to your dignity and the honor the position holds. [PM 8:52:14] <[Multi]_Kateb> I was wondering if you had any ideas or input. [PM 8:54:13] <[Mirr]_Adeline> So it can't be officially said that we're protecting them? [PM 8:54:40] <[Multi]_Kateb> Officially, you're not. [PM 8:54:59] <[Multi]_Kateb> Or, officially, you won't be [PM 8:55:10] <[Multi]_Kateb> This is mostly to pacify River, you understand. [PM 8:55:21] <[Mirr]_Adeline> And what they wanted was some kind of...handmaid? [PM 8:55:38] <[Multi]_Kateb> That seems to be her idea of what you are. [PM 8:56:53] <[Mirr]_Adeline> So we're some kind of secret then? [PM 8:57:35] <[Multi]_Kateb> I think it's a thinly-veiled ploy, really. [PM 8:58:32] <[Multi]_Kateb> I need someone to at least keep an eye on teh Prime Daughters at all times and be able to react at an instant if necessary. [PM 8:58:59] <[Multi]_Kateb> River refuses to have a special guard detail, so I call it a serving position. [PM 9:00:07] <[Multi]_Kateb> Your existance will become known shortly, I have to at least explain to the guards and serving staff who you are and why you're allowed to follow the Prime Daughters everywhere. You're not secret agents or anything. [PM 9:00:42] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Oh, is that why she was so rude when we first met? [PM 9:00:49] <[Multi]_Kateb> Yes. [PM 9:01:01] <[Mirr]_Adeline> She thinks I'm some kind of servant girl she can just walk all over [PM 9:01:56] <[Multi]_Kateb> I admit, she does seem to have more involved ideas about what you should be and do than I anticipated. [PM 9:04:31] <[Multi]_Kateb> I will say this. Officially, yours will be the highest position in the serving staff's chain of command. However, you do not have to manage the serving staff at all. You will hear nothing from them unless they think there might be some risk to the Prime Daughter's well-being. [PM 9:05:53] <[Multi]_Kateb> However, your station is truly to guard the Prime Daughters and keep them out of trouble. I will send word to the Captain of the Guard, who happens to be a very close personal friend as well as a very accomplished commander, that the Palace guards are to obey you unhesitatingly unless doing so would contradict personal orders from himself. [PM 9:06:54] <[grant]_Achel> Why not go with that then, maybe something along the lines of Royal Coordinator. [PM 9:07:10] <[Multi]_Kateb> You don't really coordinate much, though. [PM 9:07:27] <[Multi]_Kateb> "Noble Chaperone." I'm sure they would go for that. [PM 9:08:16] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Are we still expected to wait on them at all times? [PM 9:09:20] <[Multi]_Kateb> Your cover story is that you are personal attendants to the Prime Daughters. You may have to exercise some duties that would typically be delegated to the serving staff. [PM 9:09:29] <[Multi]_Kateb> You shouldn't need to do everything for them, though. [PM 9:10:01] <[Multi]_Kateb> When appropriate, call a servant to do whatever it is they want. [PM 9:10:49] <[Mirr]_Adeline> How are we supposed to know when it's appropriate? I'm sure that girl will simply think I'm doing it to be defiant [PM 9:12:01] <[Multi]_Kateb> I'm trusting you to exercise some judgement on this matter. [PM 9:12:32] <[grant]_Achel> Oh well, I guess I'm just being too picky with words. * Tugs on the fragile material * Hmmm, maybe a thicker cloth and some leather. [PM 9:13:37] <[Multi]_Kateb> Achel, you don't seem to be too concerned about your new job. [PM 9:14:12] <[Mirr]_Adeline> At least she doesn't worry about everything the way you do [PM 9:16:03] <[grant]_Achel> It's not that I don't care about it, there are some things that worrying doesn't accomplish anything. [PM 9:16:30] <[Multi]_Kateb> I suppose so. [PM 9:18:31] <[Multi]_Kateb> Achel, would you like the fortifications Achel's recommending to be applied to your uniform, as well? [PM 9:19:35] <[grant]_Achel> No thank you, it would probably just get in my way. [PM 9:20:46] <[Multi]_Kateb> I...I'm terribly sorry, Achel. I must be tired. [PM 9:21:06] <[Multi]_Kateb> Adeline, I meant. Would you like a stouter uniform, like Achel is suggesting? [PM 9:22:27] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I think anything like that might be a little too heavy for my liking [PM 9:22:58] <[Multi]_Kateb> As you wish. [PM 9:23:28] <[Multi]_Kateb> Did they fit alright? Would you like to be measured properly? [PM 9:24:59] <[Mirr]_Adeline> They could fit just a little bit better, since you're going to be changing it any way [PM 9:26:23] <[Multi]_Kateb> In that case, I'll have a servant come up to take your measurements sometime soon. [PM 9:27:38] <[Multi]_Kateb> I'll also be sure to send the new specifications you requested. [PM 9:29:09] <[Multi]_Kateb> After all, if you're going to play steward to royalty, you may at least be comfortable. [PM 9:32:30] <[Multi]_Kateb> That could be a decent title for you, "Steward." [PM 9:32:56] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I guess that's fine [PM 9:33:42] <[Multi]_Kateb> The "Stewards of Nobility." That ought to pacify all concerned parties. [PM 9:36:19] <[Multi]_Kateb> Well, then. Are there any more matters to clear up? [PM 9:36:56] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I don't suppose you could convince that girl to show a little more respect, could you? [PM 9:37:27] <[grant]_Achel> Maybe a pair of gloves [PM 9:37:57] <[Multi]_Kateb> What kind of gloves? [PM 9:39:20] <[grant]_Achel> Something simple to keep my hands warm. [PM 9:40:27] <[Multi]_Kateb> Easily done. It shall be made so. [PM 9:41:04] <[Multi]_Kateb> Convincing River to show a bit of respect will not be as easy as procurng a pair of gloves, unfortunately. [PM 9:42:03] <[Multi]_Kateb> She's so deeply involved in her Islander superiority mysticism that it would take a miricle to get her to respect either of you two in any sense of the word. [PM 9:42:44] <[Multi]_Kateb> You may have to settle for being something useful or simply unobtrusive in her eyes. [PM 9:43:09] <[Multi]_Kateb> If you can, then you'll be a step or two ahead of me, I think. [PM 9:43:22] <[Multi]_Kateb> I doubt she sees me as either. [PM 9:43:28] <[Mirr]_Adeline> So you're telling me I should start expecting her to treat me like trash [PM 9:44:56] <[Multi]_Kateb> I would predict that that is the most likely outcome, yes. [PM 9:45:24] <[Multi]_Kateb> That seems to be how she views anyone that isn't a member of her recluse Island tribe. [PM 9:45:42] * [Mirr]_Adeline droops slightly [PM 9:45:58] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Fine, if that's how she's going to be [PM 9:46:08] * [Multi]_Kateb speaks a bit more gently: [PM 9:46:28] <[Multi]_Kateb> If you want to, Adeline, I don't think it's too late to resing your position. After all, it doesn't officialy exist yet. [PM 9:46:31] <[Multi]_Kateb> *resign [PM 9:46:53] <[Multi]_Kateb> I need my Stewards to be willing to be there. [PM 9:46:58] * [Mirr]_Adeline crosses her arms over her chest [PM 9:47:05] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I didn't say I wasn't going to do it [PM 9:48:03] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Besides, you can't always expect to be around decent people all the time [PM 9:48:18] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Especially when those people have had everything handed to them their whole lives [PM 9:49:08] <[Multi]_Kateb> Your toughness is admirable, Adeline. [PM 9:49:23] <[Multi]_Kateb> But then, that is one of the reasons I asked you to fill the position. [PM 9:49:43] <[Multi]_Kateb> I'm glad to know that you're still willing to do it. [PM 9:49:49] <[Multi]_Kateb> !roll d6 [PM 9:49:50] [Multi]_Kateb rolled a d6 : 6 [PM 9:49:59] <[Multi]_Kateb> (6 favor to Adeline if this gets canonized) [PM 9:50:30] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Like I'd let one person bring me down like that [PM 9:50:42] * [Multi]_Kateb smiles. [PM 9:51:11] <[Multi]_Kateb> Of course not. [PM 9:51:23] <[Multi]_Kateb> Is there anything more, then? [PM 9:53:28] <[grant]_Achel> I believe that should be everything I need [PM 9:55:39] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I can't really think of anything else either [PM 9:56:20] <[Multi]_Kateb> Then, I'll leave you to your own devices. The water in the baths wil be restocked soon, so you can go ahead and claim the last soak if you want to. [PM 9:56:31] <[Multi]_Kateb> If there's anything you need, don't hesitate to call me. [PM 9:56:36] <[Multi]_Kateb> Now, then.. [PM 9:56:44] * [Multi]_Kateb bows slightly and leaves for his office. [PM 9:59:00] * [grant]_Achel bows [PM 9:59:41] <[Mirr]_Adeline> So... [PM 10:00:13] <[grant]_Achel> Want to get out of these stuffy uniforms and take a bath? [PM 10:00:42] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Oh, sure... [PM 10:03:24] <[grant]_Achel> Go on ahead, I have to grab something first. [PM 10:04:41] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Yeah, I'll meet you there then [PM 10:05:01] * [Mirr]_Adeline walks off to the bath [PM 10:05:14] * [grant]_Achel searches through the palace for some drinks [PM 10:05:18] <[grant]_Achel> !statroll lck [PM 10:05:19] Achel rolled a 5: 5 x [3 lck] = 15 [PM 10:05:46] <[Mirr]_Adeline> ((Oh alcohol, how I do miss you so)) [PM 10:06:59] <[Multi]_Kateb> [[There are a couple high-quality exotic liquors in a cabinet in the Annex, with a set of classy, expertly crafted drinking glasses made of the finest crystal.]] [PM 10:07:49] <[grant]_Achel> I'm sure they don't mind if I just take these. [PM 10:08:36] <[Mirr]_Adeline> ((The important thing is that some one enjoys them)) [PM 10:08:44] * [grant]_Achel takes a pair from the glass set and one of the bottles. [PM 10:09:16] <[Multi]_Kateb> [[The baths are deserted when Adeline crests the lift. The basins are less full than they sometimes are, but still ful enough to soak in. The water is nice and hot.]] [PM 10:11:23] * [Mirr]_Adeline strips off her new uniform and slowly lowers herself into the water [PM 10:13:34] * [grant]_Achel arrives at the bath and places the objects she brought with her at the side. [PM 10:14:11] <[grant]_Achel> Do you drink any? * She tilts the bottle from side to side before putting it down * [PM 10:14:40] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Uh, sure, but where did you get that? [PM 10:15:18] <[grant]_Achel> Oh you know, just laying around. [PM 10:15:42] <[grant]_Achel> In a place like this I wouldn't be surprised to find gold just laying around. [PM 10:17:11] * [grant]_Achel undresses herself and moves into the bath [PM 10:26:22] <[Mirr]_Adeline> So, what do you think about all of this? [PM 10:28:36] * [grant]_Achel pours a glass for Adeline and herself [PM 10:29:00] <[grant]_Achel> Hmmm, it certainly is different. [PM 10:30:58] * [Mirr]_Adeline takes an experimental sip of her drink [PM 10:31:51] <[Mirr]_Adeline> !statroll wll [PM 10:31:52] Adeline rolled a 2: 2 x [3 wll] = 6 [PM 10:32:31] * [Mirr]_Adeline winces [PM 10:32:38] <[Mirr]_Adeline> This is a little strong... [PM 10:34:06] <[grant]_Achel> Is it? * Takes a sip as well * [PM 10:35:55] <[Multi]_Kateb> [[The drink's potency is evident, but it doesn't taste bad.]] [PM 10:37:23] <[Mirr]_Adeline> It's not bad, though! [PM 10:38:09] <[grant]_Achel> That's good, it should help you relax too. [PM 10:38:57] <[grant]_Achel> Hmmm, what were you doing before this? [PM 10:39:53] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Do you mean before I was hired here? [PM 10:40:23] <[grant]_Achel> Yeah [PM 10:44:06] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Ehh, you know, this and that... [PM 10:47:59] <[Mirr]_Adeline> !statroll cnn [PM 10:48:00] Adeline rolled a 2: 2 x [2 cnn] = 4 [PM 10:49:18] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Just a little bit of travel before I ran into Kateb-san [PM 10:50:43] <[Mirr]_Adeline> What about you? [PM 10:50:53] * [Mirr]_Adeline takes another sip of her drink [PM 10:56:31] <[grant]_Achel> Have you ever killed someone? * She takes another sip and then stares down at the glass while slowly working her finger on the rim of the glass * [PM 10:56:41] <[grant]_Achel> !statroll cnn [PM 10:56:42] Achel rolled a 5: 5 x [4 cnn] = 20 [PM 10:57:44] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Wha-? What kind of question is that? [PM 11:00:27] * [Mirr]_Adeline shifts uncomfortably in the water [PM 11:00:46] <[grant]_Achel> It's a pretty simple question, I want to know if you understand what I needed to do. [PM 11:02:18] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Would it really matter if I said yes? [PM 11:06:07] <[grant]_Achel> I suppose you're right, defending this peace we have now is the only thing that should matter. [PM 11:07:15] <[grant]_Achel> Sorry I guess I got carried away. [PM 11:07:36] * [Mirr]_Adeline takes another sip of her drink [PM 11:07:59] <[Mirr]_Adeline> It's fine, none of that matters any more, it's all in the past, right? [PM 11:08:56] <[grant]_Achel> nnn... * She just responds and takes a sip * [PM 11:09:39] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Maybe we should talk about something else [PM 11:12:38] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Like...uhhmm...how did you meet Kateb-san? [PM 11:18:12] yo [PM 11:18:47] <[grant]_Achel> I guess it was coincidence that we met, It was several years back when I was just a normal citizen. I didn't have that much money and wandered from place to place. Things weren't looking good when I ran out of water on one of my travels. [PM 11:22:51] <[grant]_Achel> I probably wasn't going to make it but one of his expeditions he was traveling with happened pass nearby. He kindly let me stay until the next town and he told me his stories to bring peace to everyone. I doubt he remembers me as that same person that was so helpless before but he is the reason why I am here now. [PM 11:27:58] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I can't really remember how long ago it was, but I was stuck at a checkpoint to cross a border between nations [PM 11:28:49] <[Mirr]_Adeline> They wouldn't let me through and kept telling me that I should go back home, probably because of the way I look [PM 11:30:23] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Kateb happened to be passing through and must have heard the, uh...commotion I was causing [PM 11:32:36] <[Mirr]_Adeline> After I was subdued by the guards he wanted to lecture me about running away from home and some other things [PM 11:33:26] <[grant]_Achel> Well it seems we were lucky, at least in some ways. * She lets out a small chuckle * [PM 11:33:55] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Yeah, I'm not sure what they would have done with me if he hadn't been there [PM 11:34:27] * [Mirr]_Adeline finishes off the last of her drink [PM 11:34:42] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Mm, that stuff is really good [PM 11:36:31] <[grant]_Achel> It goes well with the bath [PM 11:38:43] * [Mirr]_Adeline sinks a little deeper into the water [PM 11:40:01] <[grant]_Achel> Hey now, don't fall asleep in the water. [PM 11:40:54] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I'm not falling asleep, besides you'll pull me out if I do, right? [PM 11:42:00] <[grant]_Achel> I can't have you dying on me before we even really start our job. [PM 11:42:56] <[Mirr]_Adeline> I don't suppose you'd pour me another glass if you think I'm going to die, would you? [PM 11:44:09] <[grant]_Achel> It should be your turn to pour for me [PM 11:45:10] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Okay, where's that bottle at? [PM 11:45:58] <[grant]_Achel> Over on the side there * Points at the small ledge * [PM 11:48:12] * [Mirr]_Adeline reaches over and takes hold of the bottle with both hands [PM 11:50:48] * [Mirr]_Adeline refills Achel's glass shortly followed by her own [PM 11:51:11] <[Mirr]_Adeline> There, now what were we talking about again? [PM 11:53:30] <[grant]_Achel> * Shrugs * Probably something small like which season is your favorite. [PM 11:55:11] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Hmm, I've never really thought about that [PM 11:55:22] <[Mirr]_Adeline> What's yours? [PM 11:58:41] <[grant]_Achel> I think winter is probably the best. Although it doesn't really snow that often so it's usually disappointing. [AM 12:01:14] <[Mirr]_Adeline> Doesn't it get really cold at night in deserts? That's kinda like how winter is [AM 12:04:50] <[grant]_Achel> It does [AM 12:05:24] <[Mirr]_Adeline> So you should like it here at least at night, right? [AM 12:07:33] <[grant]_Achel> I do, but it's not the same. [AM 12:08:13] <[Mirr]_Adeline> What do you mean, it's still cold isn't it? [AM 12:09:28] <[grant]_Achel> That's not the only thing that makes winter winter. [AM 12:10:25] <[Mirr]_Adeline> But snow is the worst part of winter, it makes it so hard to go anywhere [AM 12:14:05] <[grant]_Achel> (( so lacking in words at the moment, I think the sleep status is similar. )) [AM 12:16:23] <[Mirr]_Adeline> ((So are you calling it here, grant?)) [AM 12:16:46] <[grant]_Achel> (( yes )) [AM 12:18:00] <[Mirr]_Adeline> ((Alright, sleeping sounds like a good idea anyway))
