[20:07] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5Sofia had been hard at work for most of the day. Setting up creme and honey for the fae, and treats for both fae and people.. As well as marking out a giant two-hundred-and-fifty-foot square on the ground. Food and non-fae games were set up around the outside of the chalk, but Sofia had waited to summon the circus until at least the Company arrived, since the summoning itself was pretty
[20:07] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5entertaining. The Candymancer was in a pretty pastel-pink Ringmaster outfit, with a butterphant stitched in bright thread on the back. Tea-length skirt as always, with circus-fae doing circus-things as embroidered decoration-- and of course, a little tophat sat off-kilter on minty hair. A rather intricate circle had been drawn in a mixture of maple-syrup and creme, and now she was conjuring
[20:07] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5a six-inch-deep pool of water in the empty center of the ritual. Next came an etheric ball four feetin diameter, and one more smaller circle. Finally, that center circle was empowered, summoning a butterphant-- a lavender elephant with oversized purple-and-yellow butterfly-wings for ears! 14"Mira Talas, Everyone! I'm Sofia Hembry, and I'll be your Ring-Mistress tonight! Welcome to the Fae
[20:07] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 14Circus! Donations of Creme and Honey will be greatly appreciated by our fae entertainers, and any monetary gifts will be going straight to the Community Center! Everything's free, so come and enjoy yourself!" 6Introductions done, the butterphant clambered up onto the ball, and Sofia clambered up onto the butterphant! Not just onto the fae-kin's back, though. Sof balanced on the end of the
[20:07] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 6up-raised trunk, and then swandive'd the ten feet or so down into that ridiculously shallow pool of water-- and disappeared as a rainbow-tinted mist started to rise from the occult lines on the ground.
[20:10] <@Thelinius_Delevian> "....She had said the ritual was elaborate, but not to THIS degree." Thelin was impressed! He had set up his own little station--a place for people to write down what they were thankful for, and their hopes for the new year. He had assembled...quite the supply of those curious cloth squares.
01[20:11] <@Daelidan> 6 Dael had come.. suspecting some fae weirdness, but.. maybe that's what he needed right now, was some silly, weird, and possibly fun.  14 "...I mean, it is a whole circus.  I don't imagine it'd even be a little simple." 6 Leaning on the side of a booth or something near Thelin, and just watching.
03[20:13] * Lisyrah is now known as Ellynne
06[20:14] * Kairan was creeping around and looking at things, at least she looks pretty sober. So far she doesn't appear to have pinched anything, there really isn't a point since all the goodies are free.
10[20:14] <@Thelinius_Delevian> "Care to write on a square, Dael? I'm hoping to make something for Aylenray. ...although it's intended to be a surprise."
01[20:15] <@Daelidan> 14 "Uh.. sure, Thelin.  WHat's the deal with them?  What are we writing on them?"
06[20:16] * Alexander was in one part of the square, setting out the various biscuits, sweets and other delicacies, all very exotic, including a section for some of the more ..exotic ones
10[20:16] <Ellynne> Lumbered up to Thelin and Dael with a box in her arms and a jaunty top hat perched on her head. Around the brim of it she's strung glittering glimmering strings of thread and a giant obnoxious flower "Hey there suckers.. That's pretty cool..." eyeing the butterphant and dropping with a clatter the box full of what looked like rockets at Thelin's table, near Dael's feet. Leaning on the table
[20:16] <Ellynne> and pawing around for a fabric square without asking.
[20:18] <@Thelinius_Delevian> "...Hold the square in your hand, and muster up the happiest, most pleasant or pleasurable thought you can. Then, write either what you're thankful for, or what you hope for on it with the quill, here." Gesturing some quills and ink on the table!
[20:21] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5There was a bit of time before the mist started to swirl and coalesce, the rainbow-shimmer brightening a little. A few more moments, and the mist was shooting up into the air in growing whirlwinds-- that while it tugged on clothing and hair, didn't actually seem to effect a person's balance or stability. Tents raised, booths appeared, and suddenly nearly that entire 250ft square of space
[20:21] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5was filled with a circus. Meowls and Button Owlgriffs flitted through the air, pixies on sparrow-mounts.. There were even Pigoats roaming, ready to devour whatever fell to the ground. There was a band of satyrs and other Nyseeli, and music filled the air. Showtime!
[20:26] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5Sofia herself, well...Fae didn't do much subtly. There was a loud 'BOOM' of a cannon going off, and Sofia...Elegantly flew through the air, towards where the ritual started. It was at this point that the summoned butterphant, flapping its enormous wing-ears, flew up into the air and caught the girl--balancing her on its trunk, as it landed back on the ground balanced on a single foot.
[20:26] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5A small fae dressed in a pinstripe suit fluttered along, waving energetically at the others. "Oi, how's it goin'!"
01[20:28] <@Daelidan> 14 "Oh.. uh.  That's pretty bloody neat." 6 Scooping a square up.  It wasn't that hard to muster up happy thoughts, really.  The people here.. family.. friends.  Lisette and Nataleah.  Feeling at home, and feeling like he belonged with the people here.  Even if there was a bit of a shadow looming over the Tallis-Kah, even if there were fears and guilt and everything else terrible, he knew that with his friends and loved ones, he knew everything was going to be okay.  THe Architect picked up a quill, and wrote in stiff, blocky text (which was all he could manage right now) 'Thankful to love, and be loved in return.'  Before handing back to Thelin, then look towards first Elly and the fireworks, 14 "...Uh, oh.. careful.." 6 Then turning to watch the antics.
03[20:33] * Mourne (imarel@r-99-646-22-068.hsd7.pa.comcast.net) has joined #fae_circus
10[20:34] <Ellynne> 06Peered over Daelidan's shoulder at the words and 01"Woooah woah woah.. I know I'm a snappy dresser and awesome to be around, but movin' a little fast there with all that love talk."06 Scooping up her own square and the naturally brimming girl scribbled down words on the square and then squashed it to her chest mooshed it in a biiiiig hug. Tossing it down on the table and winking at
[20:34] <Ellynne> 6Thelin 'Thankful for a place to want to be'. Kicking the crate at her feet 01"What they're perfectly stable.....ish"06 coughing and flicking a shrug 01"Whenever you want 'em quickshot, I put a little extra bang for the buck in there cause I was feeling sassy."06 Grinning at the boy and peering at the main attraction curiously.
03[20:35] * [Fae_RingMistress] sets mode: +o Mourne
01[20:36] <@Daelidan> 14 "D-don't project your weird preteen crush back on m-me!" 6 Mutter.  14 "Uh.. a l-little extra.. th-they're fireworks!" 6 A little extra bang usually meant a lot of extra bang with Elly!
[20:39] <Alexander> "Well...that's a thing..." Alex isn't cut out for this shit really...it's all sparkly, and happy and cheerful...
[20:39] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5The main attraction? ....It was hard to point to just one thing. There were a ton of different games to be played--tests of strength, bottle tosses, a petting zoo...However, there WAS a central circus ring, where quite a few fae were busily making sure everything was organized and ready! The smell of fresh popcorn, cotton candy, and various other sugary items wafted over the area, along
[20:39] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5with the food Alex brought--it was a pretty amazing combination of sights and smells. People had begun to slowly filter in at this point--many of them dragged along by eager, happy looking kids. Most of the community center was there, and, perhaps as a pleasant surprise, so were many non-community people. The crowd was...relatively small so far. But more people were filtering in by the
[20:39] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5minute.
[20:40] <Alexander> "Honestly" Alex muttered to anyone that might be nearby that wasn't a patron "I'm just gonna stay by this stall and try not to die of sugar overdose..."
[20:43] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Sofia struck a pose, giving time for the audience to admire the performance, before hopping down ot the ground and giving the butterphant a big hug! He was the best butterphant, even if he was the only one she knew at all well. Sofia was naturally in high spirits, bubbly and full of life-- moreso than usual, really. Chances were that no one had seen her quite this vivacious, not even Kael
[20:43] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2or Jathadrin. This was good for her, though it was even better for Aylenray! She was practically skipping towards the group of friends and Company members. 14"Mira talas! I'm so glad you guys made it!" 2Hugs for everyone, of course! 14"What should we do first? I don't really need to announce much more until they're ready at the central tent." 2All the usual carnival games were there!
[20:43] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Shooting waterguns at targets, ring-tosses, the hammer-test..
03[20:44] * Aksel (androirc@69-743-247-73.dhcp.kgpt.tn.charter.com) has joined #fae_circus
[20:45] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5A thimble hippo floated by, and...Idly gave Alex a big, sloppy kiss on the cheek.
[20:45] <@Thelinius_Delevian> "...Take care Alex, these fae like to try and cheer up grumpy people." He called over to the wizard!
06[20:46] * @Thelinius_Delevian also gave Sofia a hearty round of applause--because it was a splendid performance!
10[20:47] <Ellynne> 0601"Hey! I'm a teen a---"06 counting on her fingers.. and flashing a look around herself.. then 01"Shut up!"06 because she really was a pre-teen. Giving the crate another kick and griiinnning at Daelidan as his curious and concerned question 01"Yeah.. everybody likes a nice pop crackle and snap in their fireworks.."06 Winking at him for some reason.. wink wink. Then clapping along
[20:47] <Ellynne> 6with the rest for Sofia's trickery
01[20:49] <@Daelidan> 14 "...n-no grumpy-pants allowed, Alex." 6 He returned Sofia's hug awkwardly.  14 "..w-wouldn't have missed it for the world, Sof.  Uh.  I have no idea.  'M probably going to be pretty rusty at any games, so I'm okay with anything you guys want t-to do.  Um."  6 Shrugging a little.  14 ".... I'm more worried about people getting a little extra burning rain of firey doom from any extra boom.. j-just saying.."
[20:50] <@Thelinius_Delevian> "...Let's, ah. Fire those off in a location that is a...safe distance from the circus. However, thank you for bringing them, Ely/"
[20:50] <Alexander> "I'm not exactly grumpy. I'm just not one for..this sort of cheerfulness" Alicious, the Dragon-squirrel that frequented Alex's person at times was helping serve/eat the food on display. He eyed the thimble hippo that was kissing him warely "Just usually more subdued, y'know?"
[20:52] <Aksel> 6The Thug lumbered in. He looked as he always did - huge, intimidating, imposing, and roughed up. He didn’t look like he really belonged there, he belonged in the back alleys rougher parts of town, messing up people's faces. Or in Thereen, doing what he was sent to do.
03[20:53] * Mourne is now known as Kindaeran
[20:55] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 14"If you're not careful, you may find a bit of fae-magic livening you up!" 2It wasn't a threat, because Sofia wasn't capable of it herself.  14"If you want, Elly, I can grab a pixie to show you where you can set those up. Either that or they can handle it! They love fireworks!" 2This was the best thing ever. 14"Hmmm, maybe the waterguns first, then? You have to hit a target, and it
[20:55] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 14propels airships across a little landscape!"
01[20:57] <@Daelidan> 14 "C-can't shoot to save my life anymore, b-but it's all in good fun anyways, s-so I don't really care about losing.  Sounds g-good."
[21:00] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"Uu...I think this is a bit much, even for fae mischief..."6 Agnes' attire this evening consists of a strapless corset teddy, bunny ears, black pantyhose, a collar, cuffs and a fluffy cottontail...oh dear.14 "Mel-Mel, Gnatty, and the E'o'ies got hit with the same beam-thing as me..."6 She pushes the bunny ear band up so the life-like ears aren't drooping in her face.
[21:00] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5A couple of children waved to Aksel, recognizing him from the community center--but for the most part, they were being filed into bleachers around the wide open center ring. The pin-striped fae was directing people to take their seats, and assuring them that the show would be starting soon! The excitement in the air was palpable...
01[21:00] <@Daelidan> 14 "... oh my.  Um.. M-mira Talas Agnes.."
[21:01] <@Thelinius_Delevian> "............." Thel suddenly found the basket of cloth pieces INTENSELY interesting.
10[21:01] <Ellynne> 06Flicking her eyes toward Dael 01"They're his shits, I just made them go whizzz and pop.."06 Grinning at the two of them 01"That's my favourite part anyway.."06 Bouncing a little on her heels and eyeing the offer from Sofia 01"I want candy! I have to shove food in my face before I start working because...Well because I want food.."06 That was good enough reason right..01" then Dael
10[21:01] <Ellynne> 1and she snorted "06Who're you talking to? I'm a per-fessional01" and then.. Agnes.. the girl wolf whistled at her and tried to cover her eyes and Dael's eyes at the same time, which was probably more likely to get a finger up the architect's nose.
10[21:02] <Ellynne> 06Flicking her eyes toward Dael 01"They're his shits, I just made them go whizzz and pop.."06 Grinning at the two of them 01"That's my favourite part anyway.."06 Bouncing a little on her heels and eyeing the offer from Sofia 01"I want candy!

01[21:04] <@Daelidan> 14 "Ahh... watch th-the nose!  Um.  Anyhow, I don't l-look at Agnes like that!  ... will have to go find Leah, though.." 6 mumble.
[21:05] <Alexander> "....and suddenly everything became so much more amusing"
[21:05] <Alexander> "Where are they?"
[21:07] <@Thelinius_Delevian> "...Would you like to, ah...Fill out a hope square, Lady Agnes?" Thel asked, after managing to regain his composure after the...surprise of seeing her.
[21:09] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2..And then Agnes happened, and Sofia blushed the same colour as that lovely pastel pink ring-mistress outfit! She did slip an arm around her girlfriend, though, and lean in to give her a kiss! 14"What beam are you talking about? I haven't seen Filly.." 2Sofia did take the time now to scribble on a square, pausing as she noticed people filtering in towards the main tent. 14"Oh, they're
[21:09] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 14ready faste than I expected! Let's go watch the main event, then we can wander around and play games!" 2A spool of cotton candy was procured from a passing fae, and waggled in Elly's face!
[21:10] <Aksel> 6The Thug was good for two things: beating people, and playing with and/or protecting children. He was also insanely good with numbers... He may have smiled under all that hair, raising a massive hand in greeting to the children.
06[21:10] * Kairan eyes the romantic handsie pair, rolling her eyes. 14"Hope square? Hogwash."
[21:11] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"Hiding, I bet..."6 She grins at the lot of them, lightly knocking her head against Sofia's.14 "A fae used some sort of wand..."6 Thelinius gets a questioning look.14 "A what?"
[21:11] <Alexander> "Oh...Fidelia was behind this?..." He coughed "Well, I..may have been trying to contact her..but..." Well, he'd told Sayeth to..
06[21:13] * @Thelinius_Delevian held up one of the squares of fabric. "...You hold this in your hand, and think of the happiest, most pleasant thought you can, until the little symbol glows. The you write down either what you're thankful for, or what you hope for in this new year. Hence, hope square. I'm a knight, not a...Nam-er."
[21:13] <Alexander> "Nam-er lives under the sea anyway..."
01[21:14] <@Daelidan> 14 "Oh, uh.. and Sof, yeah the fae can uh... take the fireworks." 6 Belatedly.  Probably not the wisest idea... either way, he was drifting towards the main tent slowly, since that seemed to be the destination sooner or later.
[21:16] <Ellynne> 06Candy was waggled in front of her face and she groped for it 01"Eee!"06 excitedly and grabbed it down to herself, shoving pretty much the mass of the top into her mouth. Not INTO her mout, some of it made it inside, but mostly it just looked like she was motorboating a singular fluffy pink boob made of spun sugar.
[21:17] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"A...Nam-er?"6 This evening is just way, way to confusing.
06[21:17] * Agnes_Bernstein does take the patch to hold, though.
06[21:18] * @Kindaeran really wasn't here for himself. He knew that Elly and Kai would probably show up here together, which meant one of them would probably piss off a fae. Not that he could do much about it, but despite his general 'Nope' for the weird, the sound of a 'FOOM-FOOM!' announced his flight pack's landind cycle, and the armored bounty hunter's arrival at the circus. Visor flipped up for the
06[21:18] * @Kindaeran moment, the Half-Xalayi's rugged, light-blue face was visible, as was the half-smoked cigar clenched between his lips with an expression likened to a cat just dropped in water. Fae were cosmic and strange!

[21:20] <Aksel> Fudge...))
[21:21] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 14"You're just in time, Kindaeran! The rest of you can make your hope-squares after the show. It's about to begin! She'd be tugging at Agnes' wrist, but she tried to usher everyone else, too! 14"I've got to go announce them, so.. Just get over there! I'm sure there's still space in the stands." 2 She'd be dashing off! Really, she was just going to introduce them, but it was an important
[21:21] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2job!

[21:22] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2job! (fix'd)
06[21:22] * Aksel watched from the side. All of that bright color, all that giddiness and cheer, it didn’t seem like him to take part in such outrageous festivities. He was moving to stand near the group of children.
[21:23] <Ellynne> 06Still with her face plastered in the cotton candy, she waved a free hand while kicking the box if fire works forward with a clatter with her foot 01"Hey Kin.."06 which came out at 'Hmrrphf kiurrr'. Motioning a hand at the crate and 01"Pick that shit up would you?"06 which was 'pfjowe euikioif kdhpioo boo'
[21:24] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5Kindaeran got a sloppy kiss on the cheek from the same thimble-hippo that 'attacked' Alex. No grumpies allowed! ...and Kin's cigar slowly started giving off bubbles instead of smoke.
[21:26] <Alexander> "Kin, want something?" He gestured the stand "Pick a country, here or Imarel and I probably have something here"
[21:26] <Alexander> "..Being a teleporty little git has its perks..."
[21:27] <Nataleah_Bernhard> 14"Aiii...no, no, no! I don't need a handkerchief tail longer than my tail tied to my tail! Especially n-not such a gaudy yellow!"6 Aaand...fae are trying to tie a handerchief to her tail so they can attach another handkerchief to that handkerchief, and so on...
01[21:30] <@Daelidan> 14 "T-tie the end to me..?  Then they can't keep tying it longer.. uh.. p-probably.  Maybe..." 6 He offered Leah, smiling a little. 14 "..You look cute." 6 Then.. tried to shove cotton-candy disaster into Elly's face a little more.  At least if it was there, he couldn't understand what she was saying, therefore didn't have to listen!  Towards the tent!
[21:31] <@Kindaeran> "In time for what exactly?" 6 He asked Sofia, while eyeing the bubbles coming off his cigar. He was prepared for something idiotic like that to happen, so he just went with it, as well as the sloppy kiss from the thimle hippo. 14"You kiss like a Tashrani whore after twelve Fire Waters and a two copper keshra blow job on a Half-Giant." 6 He muttered at the faekin, while allowing himself
[21:31] <@Kindaeran> 6to be surrounded in a cloud of bubbles. 1"Do I look like y'butler? Pick it up yourself. While you're at it, catch your share of crew pay." 6 A 125 carat diamond just got tossed to the Bomber Girl. Not a coin, so she could spend it albeit her curse. Everybody else got coin conversions. 1"Uh. Anything like what, Alex? I'd like a Radiant Wave Cannon for my ship, 'n possibly one of those
[21:31] <@Kindaeran> 1new Riftspace Jump engines the Asyndi aren't letting anybody have. Maybe a cigar that doesn't blow bubbles?" 6 He blew bubbles at the hippo.
[21:31] <@Kindaeran> (*Thimble)
[21:32] <Alexander> "Sadly, I've only got food right now. Radiance Cannons tend to cause heartburn. You forget those riftspace jump engines /do not exist, and no research is going on with regards to them/" Honestly! Kin should keep up "and Cigars should blow bubbles, I don't see the problem..I do have some rather nice Palathian rock candy though"
03[21:33] * Aksel is now known as Jorah
06[21:34] * Kairan finds Kindaeran and peeks around him at the pile of junk that Alex has, more or less sticking to the man like a yappy little guard dog. 14"Rock.. candy. Are you fucking kidding? Who wants to eat rocks as candy, Alex? How could you be so thick?"
[21:34] <Ellynne> 06It was probably one of those things that if Kin actually verbalized her as Bomber girl, she'd probably try and stab him with a fork, but as it was, she was being tossed a diamond and burbled as she bounced it from hand to hand and kept the cotton candy in her mouth with the stick poking off her face like some weird beak. Something coming out of her like a thanks but sounding muffled.
[21:34] <Ellynne> 6Stuffing the diamond under her hat and leaning down to pick up the crate of fireworks.
[21:34] <Alexander> "Just try some" Alex pushed a colourful stick of hard candy into Kairan's hand "Lick it, don't try to bite it. It's cultural"
06[21:35] * Kairan takes the candy and eyes it with great suspect! 14"You talk to your mom with that mouth, feather brain?"
[21:35] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5...Kairan gets a set of even sloppier kisses from not one, but TWO thimble hippos. The bubbles from Kairan's cigar slowly gravitate over towards her, and start to cling to her face, making a magnificent bubble-beard.
06[21:36] * Kairan blughs and wipes at her slobber and bubble covered face with her coat sleaves, the look on her face can only be described as 'so this is what being in hell is like.'
[21:37] <Alexander> "Considering she's been dead since I was 5..no. No I don't"
[21:38] <Alexander> "It's candy. It isn't going to bite"
[21:38] <@Kindaeran> 1"You too." 6 Another 125 carat diamond, from the huge haul was tossed to the theif. 1"That's a lot of coin right there, well over 250 platinum falcons. Be careful how you spend it. Hear me?" 6 He said to Kai, before eyeing Alexander. This was a six foot, one inch, brawny bounty hunter. Somehow rock candy doesn't seem to appeal to his sensibilities. 1"Got whiskey so I can at least get
[21:38] <@Kindaeran> 1loaded for this?"
[21:38] <Jorah> 6Watch out fae circus! Here came the whirlwind of a Xalayi!
[21:38] <Alexander> "I've got some Whisky chocolates?"
[21:38] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5...A pair of meowls was slowly braiding flowers into Kairan's hair.
[21:38] <Jorah> Damnit, more ))
[21:38] <Alexander> "..Northlanders. They'll put booze in /anything/"
[21:38] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 14"In time for the main eventtttt!" 2Sofia would be off, then, and into that big main tent. Moments later? 14"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, BOYS AND GIRLS! WELCOME TO THE FAE CIRCUS! IT'S TIME FOR THE MAIN EVENT, A ONE-TIME ONLY SHOWING THE LIKES OF WHICH WILL PROBABLY NEVER BE SEEN AGAIN (unlessyouhappentoseethisexactcircussomewhereelseatanothertime)! PREPARE TO BE AMAAAAAZED!" 2Kai's
[21:38] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2slobber-face was clean, but the bubble-beard totally remained.
[21:40] <Agnes_Berstein> 14"...Ain't she a screamer?"6 she giggles.
03[21:40] * Shanei is now known as Sylvis
06[21:41] * Kairan stuffs the stick of rock candy in her mouth and bats at the meowls, digging through her coat to ferret away the diamond, muttering something around the full mouth and bubbles that sounds like 'hookers and blackleaf' before she offers up her own surprisingly full flask to him. It isn't quality stuff, but firewater is firewater and will do the trick.
[21:41] <Alexander> "Tooo much information Agnes"
[21:41] <Sylvis> "Ohhh... Oh goody, I seem to have come in time. Well, come on. It's my turn to take you somewhere." Behind the half-Shei was the blonde half-Asyndi that was so often pretty much babysitting her, huffing helplessly.
[21:41] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5The meowls scattered briefly, but returned just as fast--Kairan was steadily getting a hair full of beautifully braided daisies, posies, and other bright and colorful flowers. She'
[21:41] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5d best be careful with her shiny...
[21:42] <Jorah> "Hiiiiiiiii!!! I'm here! Helloooooooo!! I love you all!! This is all so colorful and wonderful and BRIGHT!!!" 6Just her type of event to attend, because she could wear her pretty pretty princess dress and ALL her jewelry without being tacky. Besides, she never thought anything she wore, which was hardly anything at all usually,  was ever tacky.
10[21:44] <@Kindaeran> 14"What's Hell?" 6 He asked Kai, after tossing her the diamond, then eyeing the crate of fireworks Elly was carting around. Somehow, that looked like trouble too. 1"Did I see Dael around here, or have the fae captured him to do silly and terrible things to him?" 6 He asked Alex while waving his hand 'no' for the whiskey chocolates. He'd just stick to his abused cigar. At least it still
[21:44] <@Kindaeran> 6smoked the same, even if it was blowing bubbles. Anyway, Kin was too distracted by the arrival of Jorah's tits to be too worried about the main event starting, though he did manage to ask the wizard, 1"What th' fuck is a hope square?"
[21:46] <Alexander> "Something Thelinius made up? It requires happy thoughts to work or something. It's very nice, but..uh..I think Aedan would spotaneously combust if I tried something like that"
[21:46] <Alexander> "Y'know, just from the genetic betrayal"
[21:46] <Alexander> (Aedan--> Father)
01[21:46] <@Daelidan> 14 "R-right here Kin..." 6 He.. had been distracted checking out Nataleah for.. a good few minutes.  14 "...they haven't taken m-me.. yet at least.."
06[21:49] * Kairan wiggles her flask of firewater at Kindaeran, trying to distract him from the tits long enough to notice the offer of booze. She seems a bit more interested in the actual show, perhaps somewhere under all the bitterness and drunken letching there is a sweet little girl who loves cute fae!
[21:50] <@Kindaeran> 1"Why are you stuttering like some bitch slapped you in the chops and made you see Kaal?" 6 He asked his friend, while giving Alex the 'Yeah, me too.' look. It wasn't that Kin couldn't get happy, but it wasn't silly that made him happy. A nice bourbon made him happy. Nice weapons, fine clothing and a spoiled Minah made him happy. A well-stocked larder and a happy crew made Kin happy. So
[21:50] <@Kindaeran> 6far, Kai and Elly looked happy enough to...oh, booze. Kin helped himself to some of that. 1"Finally. Sanity. Leave t'you to remember th' hooch."
[21:50] <@Thelinius_Delevian> "...Ah, yes. You think of the happiest, most pleasant thought you can, until the symbol on the cloth glows, and then...You write out what you hope for in the upcoming year, or what you're grateful for. But it does seem like the show is starting..."
10[21:50] <Ellynne> 0601"I'm going to light them on fire!"06 cheerfully at the fireworks and grinned at Kairan. She finally had managed to get down all of the spun sugar and thumbed at Daelidan 01"Doofy here made 'em and I made 'em go weeeee!"06 Mocking out the gesture of a flying firework with her hand. 01"And then BOOM!!!"06 loudly and her hands flared out in an explosion 01"Ooh! I wanna drink!"06
[21:50] <Ellynne> 6leaping for the booze.
[21:53] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5“All right, is everyone seated?” Asked the pinstripe fae, who looked quite eager for what was about to happen. “We’re all so glad you could make it tonight! And we’re hopin’ that it’ll be a night you’ll remember for a long while!” The fae clapped his hands together once, and the lights in the area dimmed--with a single circle of round light focused down on the center
[21:53] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5of the ring.
10[21:54] * Nataleah_Bernhard frowns the moment she sees Jorah. She...can't even try to outgame the Xayali without flashing her top, which...isn't going to happen. The corset teddy is awkward enough...Nataleah snugs up against Daelidan to tie the handkerchief farthest from her tail to his wrist.
[21:54] <Jorah> "Oooooh! This is really going to be wonderful!" 6She was already mesmerized and she had hardly seen anything at all. But, this was also the same creature who was amazed by floating lights... The Xalayi sat immediately, almost buried by mounds of fluffy dress layers.
06[21:54] * Alexander was paranoid about the whole thing..but he was going to keep his peace and just wait and see rather than say anything
[21:54] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Sofia was leaned up against the stands near the ring, watching avidly. She'd probably rejoin the group to guide them around after the show!
01[21:55] <@Daelidan> 14 ".. I.. used to only d-do it when I'm nervous.  So.. I guess I'm nervous a lot now." 6 He offered Kin.  14 "Um.  It will probably pass.. or something." 6 Nataleah being right there helped, probably.  He, at least, seemed to be enjoying her outfit!
06[21:56] * Sylvis sat down, crossing her leg, and dragging the mage down, who looked around awkwardly. This was way too silly for Riann...
[21:58] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"Mira Talas, Jorah!"6 Agnes waves happily over at Jorah, bunny suit be damned!
03[21:59] * Shayde (AndChat505@2602:306:3b19:jlhv:miqk:wpvl:kksk:wjih) has joined #fae_circus
[21:59] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5“Now, for our opening act--I bet you kiddies have seen balloon animals before, ain’tcha? Well, you never seen ‘em like this before. INNNNNTROOODUCIIIIIING! Beedle Feister, the Balloon Meister!” The ‘spotlight’ turns to focus on a fae that appears to be…Wearing a suit made entirely out of balloons, along with a top-hat.
06[22:01] * Kairan fuffs a bit as Elly and Kin take charge of her flask. 14"Don't drink all of it you letch, there are kids around and you are gonna set a bad example." 6Though she's digging out her cigarettes as she talks, watching the balloon animal guy!
10[22:02] <@Kindaeran> 14"I'll pass on the hope square. I'm not religious but I am superstitious. I'll make my hope the old fashioned way." 6 He offered cordially to Thelinus, before paying attention to what this event was going to be. Though, he does grip Dael's shoulder. 14"Look, I heard about what happened in Sengaard. You have a right to be a nervous. Xos, I would be downright filled with berserk rage if
10[22:02] <@Kindaeran> 14that happened to me. You need anything, you need my crew to do a job for you to make this right for you? You say the word. It's on the house. You deserve revenge. Put that on your fuckin' hope square." 6 He murmured to Dael, while giving him a pat on the shoulder. 1"You don't worry about a damn thing. The Kursanu have your back." 6 He took a deep swig from the flask and passed it to
10[22:02] <@Kindaeran> 6Elly. 1"You hear that y'two? If Dael needs shit done, you let me know."
[22:02] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5....Kai's cigarettes have all gone missing, only to be replaced with little cookie sticks covered in chocolate.
[22:02] <Jorah> "Mira Talas...oof oof...Agnes!!" 6She waved wildly after batting down one side of the floofy dress. She gasped with delight at the announcement, and clapped just as wildly, giggling with glee.
06[22:04] * Kairan groans at the chocolate and shoves the case back into her pocket, rubbing at her face and bubble beard in frustration. Kin's orders are heard clearly though and she gives a bob of her head. 14"Yes Boss."
10[22:05] <Ellynne> 06Grinning at Kin and took the flask, swallowing down a mouthful.. eyeing Kairan and then swallowing another because reasons. Then she handed it back to the girl and beeeeeamed at her 01"Thaaaaaanks pooky."06 bouncing on her toes and flashing a glowing look at Kindaeran and Daelidan 01"Shit I already help that doof with shit anyway.. but now that I have yoooourrrr permissssion.."06
[22:05] <Ellynne> 6Drawling it out and rolling her eyes sarcastically, before dropping the fireworks and taking a seat with the group, tossing her feet up on the crate and shoving explosives aside to get her feet a good comfy place.
[22:06] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5For a fae, Beedle wore…A surprisingly serious, and focused expression. He slowly strolled out into the center of the circle--the entire crowd was quiet, hushed as he did so. Some people were wondering what was going to happen. Beedle didn’t keep them waiting long, however--dramatically flaring his arms out to the side, balloons slowly start to slide out of his…Balloon sleeves.
[22:06] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5These single balloons slowly started to grow, as the soft sound of music started to come from a small little fae-chestra pit.
06[22:08] * Alexander hrmed at that..but he wasn't going to intervene in the whole revenge/justice stuff. It didn't really involve him, and his opinions would just draw heat, and considering the day he didn't want the arguement. He settled for distracting Alicious with a little musical speaking crystal.
10[22:09] <@Kindaeran> 1"Think of it as a crew-wide order, Fireball." 6 He ruffled her red hair as he often did when she was being bratty, before nodding once to Dael, then motioning to Nataleah. 1"Why is she dressed like a fuckin' bunny? Is this a kink of yours I didn't know about?" 6 He asked while flicking a gaze at the main event, though to be honest he was going to have more fun listening to Dael's answer
[22:09] <@Kindaeran> 6if it managed to be more than a 'hnnnggghh.'
[22:10] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"...When me and my sisters showed up..."
01[22:10] <@Daelidan> 14 "... I don't want revenge, Kin.  I'm.. that won't fix what happened.  Justice?  Sure.  Do I want .. him gone?  Yeah.  So he can't ever do that to anyone again." 6 He nods, though.. 14 "Though.. It's appreciated.  You're a solid friend.  That's what I put on my hope square.. 15 such a dorky name, even to me..14  .. just that I was thankful for my friends.  As far as help goes.. I might call that in at some point, but it works two ways.  You ever need something.. just aks, yeah?" 6 giving a sidelong look to Elly.  14 "...even you.  Uh.  Th-the worst of it all was the other two, though.  I.. would have been better.. if it was j-just me." 6 Of course, he would have probably had fewer parts returning, too.  14 "Um.. s-some sort of Fae magic.  I'm.. not complaining..."
[22:11] <Nataleah_Bernhard> 14"...Bam! A fae waved a wand at us, and..."
10[22:12] <Alexander> "Oh, Dael. Opal decided to take the potion. Just so you know" Alex nodded to him. "I need to find Edolie...see what happened..." He poked out a mental probe to enquire as to where she was/what she was wearing. For...science? Yeah. Science
10[22:13] * @Kindaeran may have also sought out Kai's quickly emptying flask again. With that diamond she could afford to refill it a few times. What sort of circus didn't have debauchery and booze? Well, there was always bubbles. He blew a few in Alex's direction, as if he somehow knew what he was thinking (he had no idea). 14"Whenever you need Dael. Someday, when I settle down, I might have you build
06[22:13] * @Kindaeran 14me a home with a lot of secret passages and places I can put weapons and uh... I'm gonna propose to Minah. Even having a ring made out of one of those gems from the ones Evran gave. Special pearl that has some history behind it. So, y'know, I might need a place someday for kids...ones I didn't hire on to drive me fuckin' crazy." 6 He ruffled Kai's hair this time. Elly was spared.
[22:14] <Shayde> Rose and Herp, sitting in the stands. Sitting. It was super fun and awesome, especially because Herp wasn't the weirdest thing around anymore! Thinking about Sofianand her request, as she sees Agnes...
06[22:14] * Jorah was fixated on the show, her face a plate of wonderment and awe.
[22:15] <Alexander> "There's gonna be a good deal rebuilding this year.." He rubbed his brow "I've an entire estate to rebuild..that's gonna be a job"
06[22:16] * Kairan fuffs and shakes her head to try and get the ruffling to stop, though she does half climb onto her boss to try and snatch her flask back before Kindaeran can get the last drop of it. 14"I do not drive anyone fuckin crazy, you were crazy to start with an you got a girl to do the fuckin."
06[22:16] * E'o'ies are both wearing etheric dresses over the fae bunny suits...they don't have the chest for that!
06[22:18] * Alexander very solemly summoned a pair of Etheric hands, to give the little Bunny tail's attached to the E'o'ies a small pull
06[22:18] * @Kindaeran laughed at Natty and Agnes. 1"You two really have the worst luck. Don't feel too bad. My cigar's blowin' bubbles." 6 He frowned and blew a few bubbles at Natty to make the point. 14"You make me worry is what you do. I keep findin' you in gutters. How many times I carry you home this month? Six? Seven. I don't tell y'how to live...just start makin' it as far as the ship so we can
06[22:18] * @Kindaeran 14protect y'if you get into shit. Understand?" 6 He said, while handing over the flask.
[22:19] <Alexander> "If it comes to it, I could make one of my Escape Medallions, lock it to the ship so that she can return easily"
[22:20] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5. Eventually, they stopped growing--only to wobble about, and steadily intertwine themselves, over ten feet above the small fae’s head. More and more they intertwined and grew, until…There was a giant lion, made entirely of balloons, floating in the space above Beedle. The level of realism was incredible--and before long, the lion let out a tremendous roar, that caused the various
[22:20] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5kids gathered in the seats to squeal in delight. The huge Bal-Lion began to slowly run around in the air, expertly manipulated by the little fae underneath it.
01[22:22] <@Daelidan> 14 "'M.. still of mixed feelings about the potion, Alex b-but.. I really, honestly hope it works well for her.  She.. deserves something good." 6 Smiling a little and nodding to Alex, distractedly watching the show and listening to the others.  14 "Secret places I can do.  I got a book from the Ouyuht, that um.. injected the knowledge into my brain of how to use sandstone to hide some outdoor structure, too, if that ever peaks your interest.  Somewhere that you could park the ship maybe, and keep it hidden without the cloaking shield.  ANd I'm working on an old Kaal`Kor manual now, uh.. so that it's down the line only means I'm going to get better at what I do.  Um.. I'll keep the engagement stuff hush-hush until you've actually done it, but congratulations in advance.  I.. can't see her not saying yes." 6 Though, he nudged Leah a little playfully at the talk of engagement.  One day.
[22:23] <Jorah> 6The kids weren’t the only ones to squeal and clap with delight!
06[22:24] * Aylenray is clapping right along with Jorah and the kidlets!
[22:24] <Alexander> "Speaking of, if you've got time after this, I think I've got an idea for your little foray into magecraft could be useful..or at least the knowledge. Kin isn't the only one that needs a building created" Though, maybe Hussam?
[22:25] <Edolie_Blythe> 14"I will shove this tail up your arse later, Alexander!"6 she shouts at Alexander while Elodie waves a fist threateningly!
[22:26] <Alexander> "Not in front of the children!" Alex grinned back
[22:28] <Richard> Is also clapping with Jorah and the kids! It was all very fun and joyous and there was candy.
[22:28] <Ellynne> 0601"Yes because -now- is the time not to be creeper weird sex in front of the young people."06 Came the snark from Elly who like a child at least that she was in part had zoned out, watching the circus, too cool to go out and babble at it like the little kids but not too cool that it wasn't at least interesting. Though she took a break out to 01"What the fuck is an Ouyuhyttte"06
10[22:28] <Ellynne> 6Speaking at Dael 01"Is that like a sexy position or something?"
01[22:30] <@Daelidan> 14 "... Uh, sure Alex.. we can get together on that, too.  Uhh.. It's going to be a busy little while for me, which will be refreshing after all of this... getting put back together business." 6 He shook his head at Elly.  14 "Uh, n-no.  THey're Niraethian .. somethings .. that have helped us out.  We went to their city, beyone the Veil.  Energy beings, or something like that.  I.. don't think you'd like them."
[22:30] <Jorah> 6Oh dear...a Xalayi and sugar. This might end badly by the end of the night. Especially when she discovered spun sugar!
[22:30] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Elly's box of fireworks raised up about... six inches, and started dashing off towards the back of the circus! It bumbed into things a few times, and there was loudly muttered curses every time!
06[22:36] * Kairan was about to get in an argument with Kindaeran about just how many times he's had to haul her wasted butt back to ship when Elly's box gets up and escapes on it's own. 14"Uh Elly.. your box is making a run for freedom." 6Downing the last of the firewater, if there is any remaining in her flask after her cohorts had their way with it.
10[22:37] <@Kindaeran> 14"First, you get yourself right, then we'll talk about those things. Was mad as Xos when I found out what happened t'you 'n Opal." 6 He didn't know Banu all that well, but by proxy he probably felt pretty bad for her too. Opal was also a friend, like Dael was. 1"Yeah I'm with Fireball. Ouyht sounds like some strange Asyndi ritualistic sex position. Y'shouldn't be talking about Ouyht
10[22:37] <@Kindaeran> 1injecting you in front of th' kid. She'll be fantasizing about it in 'r bunk for the rest of the night." 6 He laughed and clasped Dael on the shoulder, before nodding once to Alex. 1"She's got th' coin to pay for an escape medallion. Kai? Why don't you have the wizard make you one?"
[22:37] <Sylvis> "I'm usually the one making dirty comments, and I'm just trying to enjoy the balloon lion." Sylvis huffs to herself from behind the rest. Riann just stays quiet.
[22:38] <Alexander> "Give me another few months and I should be able to get a planar version..assuming I get let in for Archmage.."
[22:38] <Ellynne> 0601"Oi! Get back here with that you midget shits.."06 said the really short girl and flailed to her feet with a whiiiine! 01"Sons of bitches..."06 though she flashed a look at and a rude gesture at Kindaeran for no other reason than she had to run after her box and couldn't answer him. Trying to leap on the box.
[22:38] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5This was not the end of Beedle’s skill, however. For while the lion slowly vanished, the fae repeated the act--this time creating an intricately detailed man and woman, who hovered above the ground. The two balloon figures turned and bowed to one another, before slowly moving together--the song of the orchestra changed as the two began to slowly waltz above the crowd.
[22:40] <Shayde> Rose continues the clappage, though also looking about for somewhere that sold candy. Chocolate, specifically.
06[22:40] * Alexander was selling a large assortment of just that!
[22:40] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5Alex had candy, and the fae were selling popcorn, cotton candy, and various other suagry foodstuffs.
10[22:41] <Nataleah_Bernhard> 14"He'll be aall better, soon."6 She laces her fingers betwixt Daelidan's, and tries to slooowly lead him into a waltz like the balloons'.
02[22:42] * Disconnected
Session Close: Fri Dec 11 22:42:14 2015

Session Start: Fri Dec 11 22:42:14 2015
Session Ident: #fae_circus
02[22:42] * Attempting to rejoin channel #fae_circus
03[22:42] * Rejoined channel #fae_circus
06[22:42] * Alexander had gotten it from all the over the place. Not an etheric candy in sight.
02[22:42] * @Daelidan (MurcTheLur@jlez397.ody.ca) Quit (Killed (NickServ (GHOST command used by Porter`Kleid!MurcTheLur@mrvk731.ody.ca)))
03[22:42] * Porter`Kleid is now known as Daelidan
02[22:43] * Jorah (androirc@69-743-247-73.dhcp.kgpt.tn.charter.com) Quit (Quit: AndroIRC - Android IRC Client ( http://www.androirc.com ))
01[22:44] <Daelidan> 14 "Yeah.. of course.  When this bloody war's done with and I'm healed up.  Still, good for my mind to think about these things.. ahead, to better times, you know?"  6 Watching Elly try to get her box under control, 14 "... Uh.. y-yeah.  I'll pretend I didn't hear that Kin.." 6 And pretend even harder that he didn't believe Elly would actually think about him like that.  But then.. he was getting drawn away to dance.  14 "..excuse me.. I can't refuse the lady her dance, yeah?" 6 ANd off he was.  Not.. entirely graceful, but not clumsy either.  He was a passable dancer, at least, so her feet were safe.
06[22:44] * Kairan looking to Alex and frowning a bit. 1"From the feather head? How much is it.. I mean, if it is gonna cost a bunch I'm not sure. I got stuff I wanna get with this."
03[22:45] * Jorah (ShieldMaid@69-743-247-73.dhcp.kgpt.tn.charter.com) has joined #fae_circus
02[22:45] * Jorah (ShieldMaid@69-743-247-73.dhcp.kgpt.tn.charter.com) Quit (Client Quit)
[22:46] <Alexander> "Honestly, I'd do it for cost, something that just warps to a single point is pretty easy, if you want one that can put you wherever you like, that one is a bit pricier..and honestly a terrible idea to give someone who gets drunk a lot. You don't want to wake up in central Quivyn after getting sloshed"
[22:47] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5While many kids had been pleased with the lion, most of the adults were still a bit skeptical--but the man and woman waltzing actually got a few more adults to relax. Around and around they danced--spinning faster and faster, until both man and woman vanished from sight, and were replaced by…a giant balloon cannon…?
03[22:48] * Jorah (Mibbit@69-743-247-73.dhcp.kgpt.tn.charter.com) has joined #fae_circus
06[22:48] * Alexander was glancing occasionally to the balloon preformance, but really, that sort of thing wasn't for him - it was pretty..but it was a planar creature, so it didn't 'count' skillwise
[22:49] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5A stormcloud formed above Alexander's head, and began to rumble softly with 'thunder' along with a little sprinkle of rain.
[22:49] <@Thelinius_Delevian> ((*tiny stormcloud.))
[22:50] <Alexander> "I'm still not grumpy you know" He remarked, glancing up
[22:51] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5The cloud changed form until it was an eerily accurate copy of Alexander's face, only...Wearing a very grumpy, sour-puss expression.
06[22:52] * Alexander generally likes these things and respects them for the effort that went into it, but there was no effort in the balloons- the Fae's purpose was balloon creation, so..there was no practice involved here. He wasn't going to be impressed by anything, no matter how many storms were thrown his way "You know, for a happy festival, your being awefully bad natured"
[22:52] <Jorah> 6Alexander was just being a party pooper. Jorah thought this was all amazing! It was wonderous! It was likely that, even to her dying day, she could still be awed and inspired by things such as this.
06[22:53] * Kairan snrks at the cloud, too amused by it to pay any attention to the balloon cannon! 14"Yeah.. that is pretty good! It looks juuust like him.. Yeah I'll take one, just a regular one. Maybe to 'cheekah's? Is that possible? Can you make it that specific?"
[22:53] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5Rose didn't have to buy anything--they were giving out candy like it was...Candy? She could get all the chocolate she wanted. Jorah, being the energetic, happy spirit she was, got a beautiful balloon-tiara fitted on her head.
[22:54] <Alexander> "I can get it pretty close. You need a few feet of wiggle room so you don't teleport inside people"
10[22:54] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Sofia had totally rejoined Agnes, happy to be watching everything! The balloon magic was awesome, and.. probably something she'd research later, so she could show Teyas! Maybe she could get Beedle to show him, too.
[22:56] <Ellynne> 06Something exploding, shaking off the pursuit if a demolitionist, not so much. She lunged and grabbed the box, gripping on it and trying lay in it to keep it from moving. She was going to have to fire these off dangit
06[22:57] * Teyas  was probably wandering around somewhere eating candy people dropped on the ground so it didn't go to waste, regardless of there being plenty of candy about
10[22:57] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Teyas had the company of some pigoats, doing the same thing!
[22:58] <Jorah> 6She gasped. "Just look at my lovely tiara! Oh I love it! Thank you...whoever you are that gave it! I shall treasure it always! And keep it *away* from a needles and sharpies! I promise!" She was almost vibrating with all the giddiness she was experiencing at that moment. She had been given a *tiara*, to match her princess dress!
[22:59] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Ellyane dove into the box of fireworks, and would get carried off, too! Towards the back of the carnival, probably where the fireworks would get set up.
[23:00] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5Once the cannon had formed, a large wick appeared from the back of it--and slowly sparked up, and moving down towards the base of the cannon. Inch by inch, the wick burned down--and the kids were on the edges of their seats. There was a spectacular FWWOOOOOOOOM as a huge curtain of balloons rained down over the crowd, in the shapes of all sorts of moving balloon animals--dogs, cats, the
[23:00] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5works. The children reached up and grabbed for the moving balloons, or placing glorious balloon crowns on their heads. Slowly, the cloud of balloons descended…
[23:01] <Shayde> Rose would eat half, and she would hold onto the other half. For later, probably. "Woooo!" Balloons and explosions!
03[23:03] * Kindaeran sets mode: +s
[23:07] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"Hehe...not exactly romatic, but this has been a fun night."6 She nuzzles her head against Sofia's shoulder.
[23:07] <Alexander> "It's been interesting anyway"
06[23:07] * @Kindaeran was content. He wasn't really 'happy' about being here, but he was content to be with friends and crew, even part of that crew was giving him obscene finger gestures whilst getting hauled away by a box of fireworks. It was enough to make him laugh anyway. He was also amused by the cloud over Alex's head. Whether he bought into him seeming like him being grumpy was negligable. Mostly,
06[23:07] * @Kindaeran he didn't really care about that, but the cloud was funny as fuck. He blew a bubble stream at Alex anyway. 1"Better t'play into it. Fae don't stop unless they feel like they've succeeded. Want it t'stop? That's how." 6 Which is why he didn't stamp out his cigar when it became a fucking children's toy. He was still getting his smoke fix, it didn't taste funny and stupid fae got bubbles.
06[23:07] * @Kindaeran 6He did however duck out of the way of a few falling balloons.
[23:08] <Alexander> "You know well I'm far too stubborn for that"
[23:08] <Ellynne> 06Helped to set up the fireworks then, stupid fae
01[23:08] <Daelidan> 14 "Romance can be found wherever you make it, Agnes."
[23:10] <Jorah> "Eeeeeee! Look at all the balloons!! Oh how I WISH Kai were here!" She reached up and grabbed for any balloon that fell on or near her. They were so much fun to bounce and hit!
06[23:11] * Kairan scratches at the back of her head, trying to get the ringing out of her ear at the fwwoooohm of ballooons, nodding. 1"Yeah, just let me know how much and I'll pay you, if Boss says it is something I should get, I can't really argue with him too much. 'd Hate to get left behind somewhere gross." 6Though she does pause to try and catch a balloon crown, wanting to shove it onto Kin's
06[23:11] * Kairan 6head if she can get the chance!
[23:11] <@Kindaeran> 14"That's puberty makin' you flush with your newfound manliness. Put a rubber band around y'balls and laugh with it a little." 6 He grinned and nudged the wizard, before souring his expression at Kai. 1"If he does it at cost, have him make th' damned thing will ya? One of these days I feel like I'm going t'find you dead in a ditch. Y'realize people care if y'live, right?" 6 He lightly
[23:11] <@Kindaeran> 6punched her shoulder, before bapping a balloon out of his face. It was also fun to watch Jorah's tits bounce up and down with the balloon catching.
[23:13] <Alexander> "I'd say about fifty gold, and I can throw in some protective enchantments on them, and you can pick a design, it needs to have a gem fragment in it, but other than that I can get the jeweler to cut it whatever way you want before I enchant it"
06[23:13] * Kairan fuffs at the punch and makes a big show of rubbing the injury. 14"I said yes to him already boss! I'ma get the dumb magic thing, you're wetter than zorah's soggy bloomers, land's sakes."
[23:15] <Nataleah_Bernhard> 14"Pffft...Zorah doesn't wear bloomers."
[23:15] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 14"We can do something romantic later? I think this has been really good for everyone." 2Sofia was practically glowing. This was probably the closest to whole her soul has been since she was nine. She nuzzled into Agnes, content to watch. 14"Once this wraps up, there's a tone of carnival games to play. We can have a bit of friendly competition between everyone."
[23:15] <Alexander> "Destination would be the airship, yeah?" He nods wisely to Leah "I imagine she goes commando"
[23:15] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5That was the fae's mother that Kai was talking about! ...a pair of soggy bloomers abruptly drops on Kairan's head. They were a HUGE set of bloomers...
[23:16] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2They'd probably fit perfect if she dried them out and tried them on, though.
06[23:17] * @Kindaeran gets balloon crowned as well, it seems. You know what? He's a big, towering brute. He's going to wear the damned thing and not make a damned bit of fuss about it. Know why? Because he was the fucking boss. Balloons or not, the crown is epic. That however, made him step away from Kairan's new wet underwear. 14"That... I don't even know what to say t' that, except looks like you're
06[23:17] * @Kindaeran 14th' one that's wet." 6 The Nope Zone was quickly approaching. He tilted his crown down a little, so it was at a rackish angle on his helmet.
[23:19] <Shayde> Rose just looks on in fascination! Goddess bloomers and balloon crowns were fine and good, but with her luck Rose would anger someone very important or something. "I wasn't sure you'd be allowed, Herp... the fae don't seem to mind."
06[23:20] * Kairan blughs and pulls the wet bloomers off her head. 14"This is rediculous, we are practically related, I hardly think that if I wanna say something like that I should get punished."
[23:20] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Elly, by the way, wouldn't be gone nearly as long as one might expect, probably due to fae timefuckery! The fireworks were all set up (probably with some more augmentation, because fae), and they'd cart her right back to the group, using the box as a transport!
[23:22] <Alexander> "Fae are like that" He shrugs "Alicious gets pouty if I actually ask him to do anything that isn't sleeping or playing" The Dragon-Squirrel in question was currently working his way through a box of Vyssian Cookies
[23:22] <Jorah> 6And CANDY! One bite of that amazing spun sugar and...well...just watch her fly like a hurricane. Drunk Jorah was a fun Jorah, and because she loved everyone, everyone would probably be loved upon. Because she wasn't already touchy-feely enough, right? Add sugar into the mix and all forms of personal space bubbles disappeared.
[23:22] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"I'll swing the hammer so hard the bell flies off the rung and keeps on going to Imarel, just watch."
[23:22] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5“Well well, wasn’t that a show, folks? Gather up all the balloons ya want! Next, we’ve got some amazing acrobatics for ya--say hello to Dellyjat the Acrobat!” …Lotta rhyming names. The “acrobat” in this case? …was actually a butterphant. A butterphant dressed in a splendid stage costume. The balloons had fallen away to reveal a huge tight-wire, along with a trapeze, and
[23:22] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5a large rubber ball. ‘Delly’ bowed to the audience, before she hopped atop the large rubber ball--and began to roll around the arena on it, bouncing about--with every bounce, Delly struck a new pose! It was amazing how nimble she was, for something of her relative size…
[23:24] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2The great thing? This was fae sugar! All the awesome effects without the drunken stupor! More bubbly, less inhibited, still alert and aware. She'd also find herself floating, just slightly. An inch or two above the ground.
[23:25] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5Jorah got the benefit of a bunch of giggly children laughing alongside her--while parents might otherwise be a bit tense about the lack of personal bubbles, they were...Actually pretty relaxed, even as the butterphant bounced around the circle. With the kids floating a little, a couple of girls moved over and tugged at Jorah's arms, complimenting her on how pretty her dress was!
[23:26] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Alex would also find a pretty red flower pinned to his shirt/collar/lapel!
[23:27] <Alexander> "See? This is much better" He touched the flower on his lapel "I approve"
[23:28] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Another fae had creeped up on Sylvis and Riann, tying them together with a length of knotted-together handkerchiefs, like the rope on Leah's tale. These handkerchiefs formed a rainbow, though. Alex's flower squirted fruit-punch-flavoured-juice when he touched it.
[23:28] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5The small stormcloud turned into a dapper-looking grey tophat, which settled atop Alexander's head, complimenting his red flower. Now he was only missing a monocle.
[23:29] <Alexander> "Okay...well...may as well get into the spirit of it" He summoned himself an Etheric glass to catch the punch, trying it out
[23:31] <Edolie_Blythe> 14"This is mortifying...I don't think I've ever worn so little in public,"6 she sighs moodily, arms crossed to covered her corset teddy's chest.
01[23:31] <Daelidan> 14 "... I wonder if this is what the inside of Teyas' head looks like?" 6 Dipping Leah, not for any reason other than to pull her back up so he could kiss her.  Keeping it appropriately quick and chaste, though since children.
[23:32] <Alexander> "Hey. I like it, you can hide in my cloak if you want" It was long and all flowy when he wanted it to be
[23:33] <Elodie> 14"I don't think it's possible to be mortified, here. The ears are fun, too."
10[23:34] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5There is some childish giggling from the air around Dael and Leah, and soft noises of "OooooOooooh!" Edolie, because she was being a grumpy grump, got a visit from another well-wishing thimble-hippo, who gave her a wet kiss on the cheek. ELODIE, because she was being a good sport, got a lollipop.
[23:35] <Alexander> "Oh yeah, watch out for that.." Alex comment just a little bit too late "The ears all wiggly?"
[23:35] <Jorah> "I'm flying! I finally get to fly! Oh thank you! I love you, too! Look look! I'm a flying Xalayi!!" Still, all personal space bubbles just disappeared like they never existed. She had to twirl and show off how floaty and floofy her dress really was.
[23:36] <Shayde> Rose figures that changing kids into tiny dragons was probably a bad idea, so she instead sets up shop and begins looking for people to sell her potions to. The ones you can take and not expect combat. "Very nice, Jorah! Very nice."
[23:37] <Elodie> 14"They twitch like actual rabbit ears."6 ...She sticks the lollipop in Edolie's mouth.
06[23:37] * Alexander selects a few runes, and flicks them out, giving Jorah a pair of very delicate finlike wings..they didn't /do/ anything, but with enough fae around reality could probably be convinced to look the other way on that point
[23:38] <Alexander> "Adorable"
[23:39] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5Back in the center of the ring, Delly was still going on at full speed--even doing backflips in the air now, and landing squarely on the ball. But the butterphant had only just begun her act! Bouncing on the ball repeatedly to gain some height, delly eventually leapt up onto the tight-rope platforms, and began the next part of her act--moving across the tight rope while balancing her
[23:39] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5entire body on her trunk! The girls gathered around Jorah floof her skirt as well, giggling as they saw the fabric floof up and down. Some of the wandering pigoats meander up towards Rose's wares, squinting at them, and deciding if they should eat them or not.
06[23:40] * @Kindaeran actually searched his armor packs and found a flask of whiskey, which he was content to lean against the nearest building and sip. Relaxed was a good word for it. Sure, there was silly shit happening, and it was cosmic and weird. But Elly and Kai were more or less behaving, so there wasn't that concern on his mind. Elly hadn't killed anybody with her fireworks, and Kai hadn't shown
06[23:40] * @Kindaeran up so loaded, that he had to carry her, so it was an all around positive experience. 1"Y'know, Kai. I'm going t'keep this crown and give it to Princess when we get back t'the ship." 6 He passed his flask of whiskey, since she had been kind enough to share her flask of Firewater. Alex suddenly looking all dapper amused the shit out of him too. 14"See? Goin' with it is much easier. Cosmic
10[23:40] * @Kindaeran 14'n strange isn't so bad if you give a little." 6 He said while pausing to blow more bubbles with his damn cigar. It's kind of like...he liked it. 1"Dael, you seem t'have gotten out of this unscathed. Did you give 'm a hand with somethin'?" 6 Too soon? This was Kin. Dael was alive, and he was here. He could bear a few jokes from a friend. He even nudged him a little, hoping he'd take it
06[23:40] * @Kindaeran 6in stride.
[23:42] <Shayde> Rose will gladly give them away, if the pigoats want them! Though, y'know, they may be slightly addictive and too many may make your heart overload.
06[23:42] * @Kindaeran also waved at Rose, finally now noticing her through the fog of balloons, people and nonsense going about at rapid-fire pace.
[23:43] <Alexander> "Hey, I just wanted them to stop insulting me" he sipped the drink "They did, and that's okay"
10[23:43] <Alexander> "And I was the one that gave Dael a hand. Both of them actually"
06[23:44] * Ephraim_Baumann is, somewhere, sighing as he juggles balloons. How'd he get caught up in this? Oh, right...Meira and a gaggle of kids.
[23:44] <Alexander> "I /wanted/ him to bear arms..but Leah wouldn't let me" He sighed
[23:45] <Edolie_Blythe> 14"...Too far, Alexander. Too far."
06[23:45] * Alexander tugged an ear! "Point taken"
01[23:46] <Daelidan> 14 "...Uh.  I guess I'm just lucky, though I did help Elly with the fireworks." 6 SHrugging. 14 "Or less than lucky... " 6 Facepalming a bit at the hand jokes.  14 "...Uh.  P-plus, I'm trying to have fun.  That probably helps."
[23:46] <Alexander> A bunny ear, not a real one
[23:46] <Alexander> "I wonder if I could get attachable ears. I remember a few girls from the Am-Xitha academy that would go nuts if they could get catears..."
06[23:48] * Edolie_Blythe tugs an ear in retaliation! ...A real one! Not too hard, but...
06[23:48] * Kairan gladly takes the flask and tosses back her fair share of his booze, but she does give it back more than half full. At least she might hold her act together enough tonight to walk home on her own.
[23:48] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5A pair of large stuffed animal bear-arms drop down near Alexander's feet.
[23:50] <Shayde> Rose also waves to Kindaeran, though she's busy staving off goaticorns. "Not too many!"
[23:50] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Now, there were handkerchiefs connecting Sylvis and Riann to Rose. Hmmmmmm.
[23:51] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2The fog hat also dripped a bit, getting water on Alex's fruitpunch flower! This couldn't go anywhere but good.
[23:52] <Alexander> "Well...when they're like that" He eyes the arms "It's sorta weird"
[23:52] <Jorah> "Eeee! Oh my oh me! Oh me oh my! *Wings*!" Heaven. You might as well have just given her a ticket straight to Silly Xalayi Heaven. Now she could twirl the little girls around without any restrictions! They could play Ring Around the Rosey!
06[23:52] * Alexander erped at the ear tug, distracted from what the hat was doing "..Yeah, deserved that"
[23:53] <Shayde> Rose is going to try and dig her heels in, pulling Riann and Sylvis towards her and the goaticorns!
[23:53] <Alexander> "Though..I could probably get those wings working if I really wanted to..is it worth the time and effort though?"
[23:54] <@Kindaeran> 14"Don't think it's the event itself that's all that fun for me." 6 He admitted, when he took the flask from Kai. 1"Just seein' people I know havin' a good time seems t'do more for me. Seein' you well, seein' Alex bein' Alex, seein' Kai in one piece, 'n Elly not setting people on fire. Rose seems t' be havin' fun." 6 The big Half-Xalayi admitted, while taking a sip from the flask.
10[23:54] <@Kindaeran> 61"Guess that's enough f'r a guy like me. Haven't had th' time to even talk to most of you jackasses in a while, let alone share a drink." 6 He passed the flask to Dael, in case he was interested. 1"Weird for a guy who makes a livin' on the price of people, yeah?"
[23:55] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5After moving across the tightrope wire on her trunk, Delly had maneuvered across the wire in a couple more creative ways before moving on to the trapeze--wrapping her trunk around the handle of the trapeze bar, and...Swinging back and forth, jumping from trapeze to trapeze without the use of her ears at all! Finally, she started to swing back and forth faster and faster on the trapeze,
[23:55] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5gaining momentum as...A bunch of fae moved a huge pool of cotton candy into the middle of the ring. Delly eventually flips off of the trapeze, curled tight into a ball, and then swan-dives beautifully into the pool of cotton candy, causing a huge 'POOOOOOOOFFF' of the sugary stuff to shoot up in the air! It then slowly started to settled on the ground, drawing itself back together into the
[23:55] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5Ringmaster, Pinstripe. "That's the first part of the show, folks! While we have an intermission, why don't you all go run around and play some games, huh? And there's some really tasty food over thataway! Look for the guy with a tophat and wings! And if you feel like feelin' all warm and fuzzy, why don't you stop by the uh..." He blinks. "...wait, seriously? He called it what? That's
[23:55] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5a--okay, nevermind, we'll roll with it.." "The hope square booth! Think happy thoughts, and reflect on what you want for the future~!"
06[23:57] * Sylvis blinks at the handkerchief, but doesn't need to be dragged. Riann just looks ... quite troubled at this, making rather awkward noises.
[23:57] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5The crowd dispersed from around the circle--excited kids ran around, playing the various games scattered around the circus--while the adults and older kids milled over Alex's way for food, before moving towards Thel's booth, where the cavalier was collecting a very large amount of the quilted squares. It might have been a poorly named booth, but people seemed to still be in the spirit!
Session Time: Sat Dec 12 00:00:00 2015
01[00:00] <Daelidan> 14 "It's not that weird, Kin.  Uh.. it just shows that there's more than just a bounty hunter.  I.. think everyone needed something like this.  J-just.. us, the city.. everyone.  THings have.. sucked, for so long now.  People need this stuff.. and even if you're not into the show itself.. uh.. you'd be a pretty shitty friend not to appreciate everyone else being well and uh.. being the butt of a few jokes." 6 Nodding in agreement to Kin.. 14 "Uhh.  Well.  Th-that's that then..where to now.." 6 Looking to Leah, then the others.
06[00:00] * Alexander would move behind the stall, and would give out candy, each bit had a small note on it, explaining where it was from (They might not read it, but maybe some of them cared?), there was even a small section for the more..adventurous children, with Zish candy and something that claimed to be Voraath candy. Alex wasn't sure that was even a thing, but the saleman
06[00:00] * Alexander had assured him it was, and well..it was all in good fun, right?
[00:01] <Edolie_Blythe> 14"...Alexander, I just want you to know that noise you just made is probably the diametric opposite of a turn-on."6
[00:01] <Young_Child> "What's a turn-on? Like an oil lamp?" Big eyes looking at Edolie
[00:02] <Alexander> "Well, having my ear tugged wasn't very pleasen.." He stops, and looks to Edolie expectantly
[00:02] <Edolie_Blythe> 14"A man should never eep, ever."6 She looks at the boy.14 "You'll understand when you're older."
06[00:03] * Alexander passed the child some Quivynite cookies to get him distracted "I'll keep that in mind next time you pull my ear. And it wasn't an eep, it was an erp. Which is totally different"
[00:04] <Shayde> "Help me sell drugs." Riann and Sylvis can take it for free, even! But they have to help sell. This circus was the best cover ever, man.
[00:07] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5...When rose mentioned selling drugs, whatever she was using was...Mysteriously overturned, dumping the contents of her potions onto the ground--leaving a bunch of empty bottles. Pinstripe just sort of...appeared, and stared at her. Didn't say anything, just stared.
[00:08] <Shayde> "Drugs was a figuritive term, Pinstripe. Figuritive." It definitely wasn't.
10[00:09] <@Kindaeran> 14"From my perspective, things haven't been better." 6 He said to Dael, as he went along the vein of the 'price of people.' 14"This war has thrown lucrative contracts my way. Ones I'd never have gotten if I had stayed on Imarel, 'n not followed the pirates to Ishaela. You'd think I'd be full of fuckin' glee over the city's oppression, but I've got t'admit, even I get tired of walkin'
10[00:09] <@Kindaeran> 14these streets 'n seeing whole families huddled 'round burn barrels, 'n starving in th' streets. Knowin' the price of people makes y'genuinely know th' value of th' good ones." 6 He clasped Dael's shoulder, then nodded to Natty, with the expectation the pair were preparing to leave soon.
[00:10] <@Thelinius_Delevian> 5Rose would suddenly find herself in a large glass flask, filled with red jello. Her head was at least above it, thankfully--but the rest of her? Jello. EVERYWHERE.
06[00:10] * Alexander sighed
[00:11] <Nataleah_Bernhard> 14"...I want to go see Ogles bust the highstriker's meter. Do you think she can really make it reach Imarel, Mithari?"
[00:12] <Pinstripe> "Yea. And this jello is also figurative. Have fun with it. Do that again, and we'll bust out the jerk-a-pault."
06[00:13] * Kairan is settled into the blissful warmth of Whisky and Firewater, cheeks lightly pink as she fiddles with junk in her coat pockets. Eventually she pulls out a tiny envelope of red papers and offers one to Kindaeran!
[00:15] <Jorah> "~Thiiiiiiiis iiiiisss ama-aaaaaazing!~" Swww-iiiing! Fling! Twirl and whirl! She was well back into her happy little bardy self, singing and dancing and creating merriment wherever she went. Now THIS was her speed and her style, nothing violent, no one hurt, but all were happy and content!
[00:15] <Shayde> Rose just looks at Pinstripe angrily. But what can she do?
[00:15] <@Kindaeran> 14"What are we smokin'?" 6 He asked, while finally snuffing out his bubble cigar. It's here he notices Rose, being Rose and actually debates smashing her out of the flask. This is a short debate because instantly, Kin remembers, 'Cosmic and Strange' and really puts that whole situation right there, in the 'Nope Zone.' Better to have this semi-deep conversation with his friend, and smoke
[00:15] <@Kindaeran> 6whatever Kai was offering, than to involve himself in this.
[00:16] <Alexander> Alicious skipped over, to lick up some of the jello. Yum.
01[00:17] <Daelidan> 14 "If there aren't any lives left, you can't collect on them, Kindaeran." 6 He offered.  14 "And.. if this keeps going on, there isn't going to be any.  That's why we've got to put an end to this soon.  The people huddled in the street are just the beginning, otherwise." 6 Giving Kindaeran a little grab on the shoulder too, though the newish arm was much weaker.  14 "But.. and end is hopefully in sight.  I still have that bottle you got me for my birthday.  We'll drink it when this is all done, yeah?" 6 THen nodding to Nataleah. 14 "Uh.. maybe not to Imarel, but I'd believe that she could launch it at least to Sengaard.  Who knows.. maybe it'll land and hit some sense into... somebody there."
[00:17] <Sylvis> "EEP!" Sylvis blinks as Rose suddenly disappears. "I didn't say yes! I wasn't going to! Please don't jello me..."
10[00:18] * Melia_Bernstein takes a break from where she'd been reading fortunes at a booth for people to give Daelidan and Nataleah a hug, and then moves to do the same to Sofia and Agnes.14 "Mira Talas, you lot."
06[00:18] * Kairan licks at her lower lip. 1"Just thistle, they aren't juka papers so don't worry. I don't fancy taking that trip around fae."
[00:18] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Sylvis and Riann were free of Rose, but now tied to Jorah! She was a much better influence.
03[00:19] * Thelinius_Delevian is now known as Kiyodai
[00:19] <Sylvis> <Riann> A pause... A quiet, awkward look towards Jorah. "... Hello." <Sylvis> "Oh hey! A Xalayi! Hey there, cutie~"
[00:20] <Jorah> "Oh hellooooooo there! Lovely to see you! Wanna go play some games? Or we can dance and sing! Or...do all three and see how it goes!"
[00:20] <Alexander> Wandering past carrying a balloon animal and licking an ice-cream was an /extremely/ contented looking squid. He waved to Riann, before continuing on.
[00:20] <Shayde> "Herp, what are the chances you could get through this glass?" Chaos-infused claws would probably still take a while. Oh wellsies.
[00:21] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Sofia hugged Melia and Agnes tightly, still in her pale pink ringmistress outfit. She'd be keeping that for the next time she had to summon the circus! 14"The hammer first, guys? We can see who hits it higher!" 2Sofia would start herding the cats-- er, Company, that way!
[00:21] <Sylvis> <Sylvis> "At the same time? Sure! You'll have to drag the blonde grumpypants there." She says, jerking a thumb over at the blonde wallflower behind her.
[00:23] <Alexander> [Rue] "Come on Flbbl!" Rue pointed to the Hammer "We gotta give this a go!" She was moving over..Flbbl..he scurried along to get a good vantage point. Balloon Ferret was a great seat too! Rue..well, she loved the circus. It was right up her street.
[00:23] <Jorah> "Well *what* are we waiting for?! Let's go!" She caught Riann up by the hand, Sylvis with the other, and started to skip ahead.
[00:25] <Alexander> "I think I'll give the hammer a skip, I feel my pitiful mortal muscles will be no match"
[00:25] <Alexander> "Though...if you could use magic...."
10[00:25] <@Kindaeran> 14"No me either." 6 He laughed at Kai while taking a thistleweed cigarette and lighting that up next. After a few puffs, he answered Dael. 14"I gotta admit, I don't really understand the whole mystical side of this shit we're fighting. I know there's somethin' called A'thrach and it's fucking with the world here. That's about th' extent of what I understand, besides Praetus being a
10[00:25] <@Kindaeran> 14fuckin' Moul cockmonger, 'n needin' to be shot in th' the head for it. But that's enough for me. I don't need t'understand the complex, cosmic bullshit. I just need t'know where the money is, 'n where friends need me t'be." 6 Dael was right. There was more to Kin than just the next bounty. Though, it was a side of him that was rarely seen in public. It was like the gruff Half-Xalayi had
[00:25] <@Kindaeran> 6a heart he hid under all that armor and only revealed it in these small moments. 1"And I'd like that. A good drink on a quiet night, when all this shit is settled."
06[00:26] * Sylvis happily skipped ahead, and Riann stumbled and nearly fell, but followed. <Riann> "Wah! I don't know how to dance! Especially not tied up to someone!"
[00:27] <Alexander> "..Well, not to get into too much details that you don't care about Kin..but I don't think A'thrach is your sorta thing. A'thrach is as close as you can get to a deity without tripping some very paticular cosmic rules, and I'm not sure Praetus would go down even if you tagged him with your radiance cannon, it's all gonna be mystical technobabble from here on
[00:27] <Alexander> out"
[00:28] <Shayde> "Pinstripe! I'll give you some of it, if you let me out! It's harmless!" It's not, but only if you drink more than a vial.
[00:29] <Alexander> [Rue] "Aggy!" She points! "I challenge you" Dramatic pointing!
[00:29] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Rose will taste nothing but cherry jello for a week. She was let out, however, and she'd find the flask of jello in her lab when next she went there. Infinite jello, though it had no special properties itself!
06[00:30] * Aylenray squeezes the 'trigger' on her finger gun skyward, expelling an evening's worth of accumulated energy into the sky in the form of nigh euphoric fireworks that explode into a variety of shapes: stars that link into well-known constellations, hearts, smiley faces, large-eared imps...
[00:30] <Alexander> [Rue] "Uh..Nice Fae people? Could I get a Hammer for pointing and challenging people?"
[00:30] <@Kindaeran> 14"Put that piece of shit in my sites, 'n I'll try anyway." 6 He said to Alex. Kin was really proud of that cannon, now that it worked most of the time. Hrruk didn't have to hit it, or headbutt it to get it to fire anymore anyway. 1
10[00:31] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2The hammer appeared in Rue's hand, looking really squeeky! Aylenray's fireworks mysteriously set of the fae-enchanted ones that Dael and Elly had brought, and it was basically an acid-trip in the sky.
[00:32] <Alexander> "Oh sure. I mean...I don't think he'd like it..but..he's not ../anything/ under there.." he was distracted by the fireworks..which was good, because badthoughts "I'm probably the only sane person who's gotten a look under that mask, so...yeah..."
[00:32] <Alexander> [Rue] "Thaaaank you!" She dramatically stretches it out at Agnes!
10[00:33] <Shayde> "I taste cherry and am seeing lights. Without the drugs." This is what Teyas must have felt like all the time.
[00:33] <@Kindaeran> 1"And y'right. Please don't wizard-natter me t'death. I'll absorb about two percent of it, 'n beg Edy to translate." 6 He said with a laugh, while leaning against the brick wall of some building. 1"Or just have Kai give me her interpretation, just t' fuckin' laugh."
01[00:34] <Daelidan> 14 "I.. honestly don't know a whole lot more than that either, Kin, don't feel bad.  We leave that to folks like Alex, Eddy and Cyrus.  That's their department.  I use my brain for other things.  ANd Alex... there's still fighting to be taken care of, still too.  It's not all mystical, though I suspect there'll be a lot.  There's still all of those bloody Corpse Guard freaks to be dealt with, too. " 6 Things he didn't really want to be doing.. but.. no one wanted to be doing a lot of this.  14 "RIght.  A quiet bloody night, some good friends, and no more craziness for a bit.  Celebrate the end of a war and.. I guess the end of a fairly lucrative contract for you.  Do Bounty Hunter's drink over that?" 6 Nudging Leah, and pointing up at the fireworks with a little grin, squeezing her hand.
[00:35] <Richard> Is clapping some more. Aylenray made the best celebrations and lights... and found the best ink. Where was the ink?
[00:35] <Alexander> "Oh sure..Corpse Guard are quite Radiancible...though personally, I don't think I'm much involved from this point forward. I'm best just sticking with healing for now"
[00:35] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 2Leah was suddenly holding something long and hard in her other hand-- but remarkably thin! A black wand with a white tip, as the fae that had glamoured her and her sisters pranced away with a wink!
[00:37] <Nataleah_Bernhard> 14"...Ooh...this is the wand they used. Hopefully it can change us back,"6 she laughs.14 "Aren't these fireworks amazing, Mithari?"
06[00:38] * Kairan fuffs at Kin, smoking her own. "why don't you go get a buncha Asyndi and an airship? pew pew pew."
[00:39] <@Kindaeran> 14"Evran has given me so many 100+ carat gems, I probably won't need another contract till after th' war. That's how well we're sittin' now. Crew'll be paid, we have full larders, 'n I've still got enough to get all the things on the Mistresss fixed that need fixin'. She's still got a few mysteries t'solve about her origins, before Stonnes owned her." 6 Mostly that panel in the engine
[00:39] <@Kindaeran> 6room, but that could wait. 14"So drinkin' to that'll be fine by me. Besides, there's always trouble goin' on somewhere. Pirates, Burnin' Undead, Corpse Guard. No end to trouble."
06[00:39] * @Kindaeran paused and stared at Kai. Stared.
[00:39] <Alexander> "You do /not/ want the Asyndi involved in this"
[00:40] <@Kindaeran> 1"What th' fuck do you think th' "Dangerous Mistress" is? A tug boat? She's a Viper Class Asyndi airship, y'knob." 6 He ruffled her hair again!
[00:41] <Alexander> "Well, if you want a tip, talk to the blue haired kid back in the parlour about Airship upgrades"
06[00:42] * Kairan swat swat swatted. 14"I'm not daft, I know what she is! I mean another one cus they are just gonna shoot at it. so what we do is we get a buncha Asyndi who can do that radiance thing, fly em over head, and have them just put a crator the size of Miroa where his dumb mask used to be."
[00:44] <Alexander> Rue dramatically twirled the squeeky hammer, before SLAMMING it down on the bell, she even did a little jump to help with the down swing..imperfect technique strictly speaking, but this was all about flair! It was fae, logic was subservient to looking cool.
[00:45] <Alexander> "I don't even think that would work Kai..it's like..trying to remove a stain. You can't just set fire to whatever the stain is on"
[00:46] <Agnes_Berstein> 14"14"Ahem...let it be proclaimed to all the warriors of the world, to all who hold these hammers, and to the lawkeepers of the gods! This test of strength must now be made open! Let all those come who wish to observe, and let none interfere with those who would compete!"6 She takes the offered mallet with an accentuated flair and waits for Rue to finish.
[00:46] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 14"..That depends on if you still want the stained thing afterwards, Alex!" Sofia wasn't promoting bombing Sengaard, she just had to make the quip!
[00:46] <@Kindaeran> 14"This is where it gets cosmic 'n strange, Kai." 6 He began. 14"Somehow, mass violence...the usually perfectly sensible solution, doesn't work. It's got t'be some special way of doin' it. Gets into 'Shit Kin does not need t'know about, but probably knows anyway' field."
[00:46] <Jorah> "Hmmm...I bet I can shatter that glass with just my voice...wanna see?" she asked of the two girls with her.
[00:46] <Alexander> "When you consider that the strained thing is in this case is /reality/, yeah we kinda like reality"
01[00:48] <Daelidan> 14 "They are, Mithari.  SOme of those are the ones I've been holding onto, but Elly said she could make me some more.  Uh.. I'll make sure they have less than extra boom, though..." 6 TO Nataleah, before nodding back to Kindaeran.  14 "I.. wouldn't even know what to do with that many precious stones.  Uh.. probably give them to some Kaal`Kor to teach me how to build better.  Uh.. but that drink will be welcome.  THose burning dead are going to be a real, serious problem before long, though..."
[00:48] <Sylvis> <Sylvis> "Do it! That would be awesome." <Riann> "Will it be safe for us..?"
[00:49] <Jorah> "Just cover your ears! Maybe really...really tightly!"
[00:49] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5PING! The image of Imarel shattered on the scale, throwing fireworks everywhere, and then slowly pulled itself back together. Given how it went Xos, Lyth, Ishaela Clymoria, Imarel, Tala, Indaris, Rue had done pretty damn good!
[00:49] <Alexander> "Well, for building, I've been wondering. What would happen if you made a building where its walls made a magic rune" He hmmed "Get functionality of a building with arches if you needed, but..well.."
06[00:49] * Sylvis just does it immediately. Riann as well, though looks more apprehensive. Sylvis just conjures etheric earplugs for the both of them.
[00:50] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5PING! Agnes was probably distracted by the wafting smell of chocolate combining with Sofia being close. She only exploded Ishaela!
06[00:50] * Kairan eyes Kin a bit over the haze of her thistle smoke. 14"That's just.. that aint fair. I guess Featherhead says he doesn't have like a real face so we can't poison him?"
[00:51] <Alexander> "Best plan is to throw a bunch of occultists at him and have him banished"
[00:51] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"...Huh. I must be losing my touch...oh well."
10[00:52] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 14"I'm actually working on that, Alex. I've got Rue and Edolie in, but Cyrus can be hard to track down."
06[00:52] * Kairan waves her hands and gets all excited. 14"Why don't you just get my aunt to do it then? She's a cultist!"
[00:52] <Alexander> "Uh..Cultist, or /Occultist/?"
[00:52] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5Rue was handed a can. It had a picture of leafy greens on it, and one of those pull-lids.
[00:52] <Alexander> <Rue> "Ooh..What's this?" She opens the can, and eats what's inside!
10[00:53] <@Kindaeran> 1"You hear what Talis said about what he saw at the meteor site?" 6 He said to Dael. 1"Millions of Burnin' Undead movin,' across boiling water. That was months ago. That's definitely goin' to be a problem." 6 He turned to Kai here. 1"Headin' back to the ship. You comin' along, or stayin'?"
[00:53] <Alexander> Rue eats stuff she's just handed. The fact she's a cambion is probably why she's still alive.
[00:53] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5.. Magic happened. Rue's torso and arms exploded into muscle, to the point of comedy. Especially since her legs basically became toothpicks. She felt ridiculously strong, though!
06[00:54] * Kairan wiggles her fingers and then blinks. 14"wait..what's the difference..? I'm comin!" 6Stretching her arms up over her head and giving a big tipsy yawn.
[00:55] <Alexander> <Rue> "Well Flbbl" She takes out a pipe, to clech between her teeth "Lets give this one another go!" She would, if allowed, slam down the hammer a second time!
[00:55] <Sofia> "Maybe once this war is sorted, we can work on that. G'night Kin, Kai!" 6Waves for them both! Kai would suddenly find herself in a bright yellow ducky rainslicker for no apparent reason.
[00:55] <Melia_Bernstein> 14"Esther mentioned that, too...something about the sea being impossible to traverse because the Burning Dead were making it cloy like mud..."6 She gives Agnes a sympathetic laugh, patting her on the back.
[00:56] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5PING!Indaris exploded. There was glitter and light and sparkles, and a big stuffed unicorn with a pink mane for Rue!
[00:57] <Alexander> Rue would pass it along to Flbbl, she's nice like that!
[00:57] <@Kindaeran> 1"Cultists 'r assholes that just want to kill you for their god. Occultists are just really knowledgeble about calling shit from other planes to kill you for their god." 6 He explained it like 'Occultists were bros, and cultists were not bros.' With that, he bade farewell to everybody, but lingered for responses before heading out, anyway.
[00:57] <Alexander> <Flbbl> "Fll!"
01[00:57] <Daelidan> 14 ".. yeah, Kass, Talis and Esther told me.  I.. have no doubt you'll have another contract soon enough, over that ways.  You're off then?  Xiru Talas, Kin.. Kairan too." 6 Nodding to them both.. then looking to Mel.  14 "..There's always another thing, isn't there?  Hnnghh.."
[00:57] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5The unicorn was pudgy and adorable. 14"fill the can again, lass! Promise it'll work again, once the leaves marinate!"
[00:58] <Kairan> "Quack! Look Kin..  it's got cute lil hood an everything." 6Chasing after Kin, seeming rather sweetly pleased with her new rain=slicker!
[00:58] <Alexander> <Rue> "Cool!"
[00:58] <Jorah> 6Her gills shut in tightly while she drew in a great lungful of air. Now, concentrating on that glass, she was going to use a technique that she had discovered while on the ocean voyage with Talis and Kass...
[00:58] <Alexander> Flbbl would totally give the Unicorn to Notes later, in an attempt to woo her.
[00:58] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"...Eh, I don't feel bad. That game is kind of creepy when the planes are exploding..."
06[00:59] * @Kindaeran doesn't want to know why Kai just quacked at him. It just got 'Nope Zoned' as he just pulled the hood over Kai's face and pulled her along. Too much strange for tonight!
[00:59] <Alexander> <Rue> "But they explode so prettily...also. I HEARD THAT KIN!"
[00:59] <Alexander> Rue resembled that remark!
[00:59] <Melia_Bernstein> 14"It is kind of violent for a fae game..."
[01:00] <Sofia> "Hmmm, there's one with waterguns? Or tossing rings on bottles.."
03[01:00] * Kindaeran is now known as SleepyTim
03[01:01] * Kairan is now known as SleepyCat
[01:04] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"Oh! Look at that one: a fae impersonating Tucker! If you hit that target hard enough with the water balloons, it dunks them into the tank of lard..."
[01:05] <Melia_Bernstein> 14"...Only fae can get away with that."
[01:05] <Jorah> 6It started off as a low hum, building to a crescendo blast which would be released at just the right moment towards the glass she was focused on. The hum had different pitches to it, as if she were splitting her voice. And then? . . . WHAM! The vocal sonic blast was released!
[01:07] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> 5The glass shatters in slow motion-- and then rewinds back into perfect condition! Magic.
[01:07] <Alexander> "You gotta work around the problem, rather than meeting it head on"
[01:07] <Jorah> "Oooooh! I did it! I did it! Did you see?! That was FUN!"
[01:08] <Alexander> Alicious was still there "..Chitter" He attempted to lick Rose's face
[01:08] <Sofia> "Wanna give it a try?" 6By now, she'd probably slipped up between Melia and Agnes, hooking their arms and nudging them forward a bit. She was like a kid with all these fae around! Full of happy and joy and whatnot.
[01:08] <Sylvis> <Sylvis> "Oooh, that was great! Impressive!" She says, as both of them pull the earplugs out.
[01:15] <Jorah> "And I got a prize!" *Squeeeeaaaak!* It was a squeaky hammer...gods help them, she had a squeaky hammer.
[01:18] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"...We should've tried to convince Banu to come,"6 she muses while accepting the water balloons.
[01:19] <Melia_Bernstein> 14"No, I think this would've been too stimulating for her."
[01:20] <Alexander> "Maybe we could get her a gift?" He doesn't know, and he feels awful for not knowing
03[01:20] * Kiyodai is now known as Kiyo|Away
[01:20] <@[Fae_RingMistress]> "There's a lot of people.." 6Melia was probably right on this one. 14"That's a good idea, Alex!"
03[01:22] * [Fae_RingMistress] is now known as Sofia`Hembry
02[01:23] * Shayde (AndChat505@2602:306:3b19:jlhv:miqk:wpvl:kksk:wjih) Quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds)
[01:23] <Agnes_Bernstein> 14"She likes horses, right? I actually carved a wooden toy one the other day...maybe the fae could enchant it."
[01:24] <Alexander> "That could work. She's got an elemental horse that she keeps"
[01:25] <@Sofia`Hembry> 14"I'm sure they would. It might be best to give them a little direction, though.."
[01:28] <Alexander> "Hmm..." He focused, and let out his hands, twitching his finger slightly, before curling them, almost like he was weaving, slowly, an illusion of a horse, with a misty mane and clouds around its hooves came into focus "He's like that..I should know since I've been keeping an eye on him while Banu is..unwell" Not much to do really, since Alex has him on
[01:28] <Alexander> grass. He's smart enough not to wander off
[01:30] <Melia_Bernstein> 14"No reason to make it functional, huh? Maybe it could just rear up and whinny like a real horse, or something."
[01:33] <Alexander> "Well, we'll leave it them then?"
03[01:34] * Alexander is now known as Def|Unexistance
[01:40] <@Sofia`Hembry> 5Horses bond with their favourite human, and that required knowing each other! The wooden horse, when Banu touches it, will become active and reflect the general status of the elemental horse. It will prance and rear and move around when necessary to get a point across, and generally putz around even when content so long as she's paying attention to it! Furthermore, it establishes a link
[01:40] <@Sofia`Hembry> 5between girl and horse, getting them more comfortable and familiar with each other.
[01:51] <@Sofia`Hembry> 5The circus was still going strong, but a Pinstripe strolled up to the group with.. a fairly big, rolled canvas and a stone with holes in it? 14"The stone's for the samurai that hangs with your lot. It'll help him see. Sof, just dive into that painting some time!" 5Off the fae went again, overseeing his fabulous carnival.
