- Sylina:
- Mystic Knight 0 Prerequisites: Adept Occult Education Static Choose one of Firestarter, Fountain, Freezer, Guster, Materializer, or Zapper. You gain the chosen Capability. You may use any Struggle Attack-altering Capability that you have with your Weapon Attacks.

- MTCharacter:
- that'd do it
- MTCharacter:
- statistically Freezer is the best, but IDK about how that works in relation to the party
- MTCharacter:
- though you sort of maybe have problems with flying types
- MTCharacter:
- Main thing is that he does not actually HAVE access to Fire or Grass attacks rn
- MTCharacter:
- or well, he does grass ones
- MTCharacter:
- I should probbaly swap in EC(Fire) too
- MTCharacter:
- so he can use that
- MTCharacter:
- over novice combat I guess?
- Sylina:
- Sure?
- Sylina:
- What's he need Combat for again, MK?
- MTCharacter:
- nothing
- MTCharacter:
- wait no
- MTCharacter:
- weapon moves

- No one has Guile.
- Sylina:
- No one needs it.
- Sylina:
- We kind of speak our minds, as a group.
- MTCharacter:
- You will probably encounter situations where someone needs to lie.

- Takenaka Hanbei:
- from two different series
- Takenaka Hanbei:
- I...think this one is from touken ranbu
- Takenaka Hanbei:
- I do not know
- Takenaka Hanbei:
- The other one certainly isn't
- Agtop:
- any thoughts MT
- Agtop:
- There's a billion waifus and kiddos here
- Cyda:

- Cyda:
- as his waifu

- MarthTrinity:
- Also are we shooting for azn names?
- HibariKid:
- This one can sail
- Agtop:
- Doesn't really matter
- HibariKid:
- You're currently in Japan, so if your waifu is from the area then yeh she should probably have one
- Agtop:
- You guys coulda settled down here from out-of-displaced-planetary-chunk
- HibariKid:
- well not actual japan
- HibariKid:
- but an area kind of based on ancient japan sort of
- MarthTrinity:
- Oh, I meant for my character's name o3o
- Agtop:
- You know what the world is like right
- HibariKid:
- i'm not sure that porsche is a japanese name
- HibariKid:
- Rei..
- HibariKid:
- okay
- HibariKid:
- Rei technically IS a japanese name
- MarthTrinity:
- Kind of
- Agtop:
- There are no set naming conventions to follow
- HibariKid:
- but her full name is Reidunn
- HibariKid:
- which is norse
- Agtop:
- "Displaced planetary chunks" kinda sums it up
- HibariKid:
- p much
- HibariKid:
- pieces of different worlds comprise the planet
- HibariKid:
- there's not-venice that ended up in an arctic climate and became not-italian-sibera
- HibariKid:
- i
- HibariKid:
- there's not-ancient-chinese-venice which is ruled by chaos and has super dank tech levels despite living in wooden houses
- HibariKid:
- there's a modern-ish city bu lit by disco balls 22 hours of the day
- HibariKid:
- built inside a dead volcano
- HibariKid:
- there's a city built on mountains that's under the rule of said disco city, they're known for being good watchpeople
- HibariKid:
- then there's the chitin clan and the hajja medical corps
- HibariKid:
- the chitin are in Yuda, in multiple hidden villages
- HibariKid:
- no they do not wear headbands
- HibariKid:
- yuda is where you are now
- HibariKid:
- then there's nimae, a city on a tiny continent that's surrounded by 400-foot-tall trees
- HibariKid:
- and is based loosely on ancient Korea and Vietnam
- HibariKid:
- and the mongols
- HibariKid:
- and many smaller cities and landmasses
- HibariKid:
- like where tirk's from, Detroit
- HibariKid:
- the hajja aren't a country, just a wandering group of medics
- HibariKid:
- so far we have one person from Yuda, one from Detroit, and one from the Splintered Crown Dynasty
- HibariKid:
- which is the chaotic wooden house vidyagames place
- Agtop:
- it's ok
- HibariKid:
- in the end you can be pretty much whatever ethnicity or monsterperson you wat
- HibariKid:
- n
- HibariKid:
- there is only one non-human in the party.
- HibariKid:
- Everyone except Merge was boring.
- Porsche:
- you wouldn't even let me use a non human
- MarthTrinity:
- Isn't agi 10,000 years old?
- HibariKid:
- i made u un and u turned it down
- HibariKid:
- He's 127
- Porsche:
- no i didnt
- Porsche:
- i said i was gonna make some changes
- Porsche:
- and then u got offended at the very idea and tore up the paper
- Viera Spellblade:
- u were gonna change it to the point it wouldn't be anything similar to the original concept so I mean
- Viera Spellblade:
- what was the point of the character trade in the first place
- Viera Spellblade:
- Either way we're long past that now
- Agtop:
- I still make fun of the kids for arguing about the difference between 15 and 3/4 and 17 though
- Porsche:
- it was to give me an idea on what to play
- Viera Spellblade:
- All you did was prove my point better
- Viera Spellblade:
- Everyone but Merge and myself were boring.
- Porsche:
- u just blew it way out of proportion
- Viera Spellblade:
- was
- Agtop:
- well I WAS making him a big-ass burly bull sniper man
- Agtop:
- I just never got around to it
- Viera Spellblade:
- i mean
- Viera Spellblade:
- if all u wanted was a three-word descriptor of what to play
- Viera Spellblade:
- you coulda said so
- Viera Spellblade:
- that woulda been a hell of a lot easier on us all
- MTCharacter:
- right
- MTCharacter:
- MT u have ownership of this guy
- MTCharacter:
- horp
- Agtop:
- dinka dip
- MarthTrinity:
- Why thank you
- Elven Bard:
- tho then again that WAS what I gave you first (D)
- Elven Bard:
- So you shut your whore mouth (D)
- Rei:
- Anyway, brief rundown
- Yunao:
- This one is racist as shit against bugs
- Yunao:
- just like, any bugs
- Miyuki:
- Even people who aren't even bugs
- Miyuki:
- if they have talked to bugs before
- Miyuki:
- yunao hates em
- Miyuki:
- hell the chitin aren't even bugs
- Miyuki:
- people just think they are bc of Yokai
- Agtop:
- Also maybe because of the name?
- Thrice:
- no
- Thrice:
- chitin refers to a lot of shit
- Thrice:
- mushrooms, crabs, octupi
- Agtop:
- I associate it exclusively with bugs
- Thrice:
- then ur dum
- Hideo:
- There we go, I'll be Kojima.
- Agtop:
- No, I just didn't know, and that's my first association.
- Thrice:
- hell the main association is with crustaceans
- Thrice:
- not insects
- Agtop:
- That's like saying someone's dumb for thinking the sky is blue
- Thrice:
- not all insects have chitin in their exoskeletons
- Thrice:
- you're ignorant
- Thrice:
- happy
- Agtop:
- when "AKSHULLY, IT'S 78% HYDROGEN, 10% OXYGEN, 2% NITROGEN, 10% OTHER ASSORTED ELEMENTS"
- Agtop:
- I asspulled those ratios
- Agtop:
- don't fact check me, they're wrong
- Thrice:
- YOU SHOULD AT LEAST KNOW IT'S 78% NITROGEN M8
- Thrice:
- HYDROGEN?!
- Thrice:
- WE COULDN'T LIGHT A MATCH WITHOUT BLOWING US ALL UP
- Agtop:
- observe my ass
- Agtop:
- that's where the information came from
- Porsche:
- ANYWAY
- Porsche:
- Porsche is fat and she doesn't enjoy shooting children for sport, only for money
- Porsche:
- That's about all we know of her personality
- Porsche:
- Money and if she doesn't have any potato chips left
- Rei:
- Rei's dying no need to gaf
- Sylina:
- shooting kids is bad mkay
- Sylina:
- Sylina hates people in robes
- Sylina:
- and yunao
- Sylina:
- gotta make that clear in case u don't count that as a robe
- Sylina:
- I like how you started out being serious then gradually started shitposting
- Sylina:
- also she couldn't hold a conversation with a rock without boring it to death
- Sylina:
- no I started out shitposting
- Sylina:
- i was BORN shitposting
- Sylina:
- unlike you assholes who were just born shitposts yourselves
- Sylina:
- okay, not gradually
- Sylina:
- Immediately starting with your second post
- Yunao:
- No
- Yunao:
- with the first
- Yunao:
- because the chitin aren't bugs.
- Sylina:
- Yunao does hate bugs tho
- Yunao:
- you ALL do
- Yunao:
- even PORSCHE hates bugs
- Sylina:
- see the thing about that is
- Sylina:
- fuck bugs
- Miyuki:
- DO I LOOK LIKE A BUG TO YOU
- Miyuki:
- also lewd
- Miyuki:
- Anyway
- Miyuki:
- Is MT around
- Miyuki:
- We need him to pick a waifu and a kid
- Miyuki:
- So we can start the session
- Hideo:
- Oh, didn't realize that's what we were waiting on
- Porsche:
- b-but no merge :^(
- Sylina:
- Merge already said he wouldn't be able to make it
- Sylina:
- and told us to go on
- Hideo:
- Gypsy Woman waifu uhhhhhhh...Tao Jun kiddo, guess she can be my shit posting hipster daughter.
- Miyuki:
- you daughter is older than your wife
- Miyuki:
- But sure
- Sylina:
- worst taste.
- Yin:
- Oh right I forgot Yin
- Yin:
- nobody likes her anyway she doesn't matter
- Sylina:
- She's turning me into a tree
- Yin:
- these motherfuckers just let her wander off with the dying blonde chick in the woods
- Yin:
- for three hours
- Yin:
- IT'S NOT EVEN A THREE HOUR WALK HOME.
- Sylina:
- You are literally right next to us.
- Yin:
- she's not I just moved her here for convenience
- Sylina:
- But
- Sylina:
- you are.
- Sylina:
- Why the hell would we have split up?
- Thrice:
- bc she was carrying Rei ahead of you when waterworld showed up and didn't stop
- Thrice:
- why else do you think neither of them said anything that scene
- Sylina:
- Because you were trying to let us direct it, rather than the leader of the party?
- Thrice:
- Did you think the "Where the fuck is everybody" was shitposting
- Thrice:
- it was not
- Sylina:
- And didn't want to say too much
- Sylina:
- Yes?
- Sylina:
- Yes I did?
- Thrice:
- I do not shitpost mid-game
- Sylina:
- You don't do anything BUT shitpost mid-game
- Thrice:
- if I say something in quotations in character i mean it
- Sylina:
- Yin: **two miles down the road** "where the fuck did everybody go"
- Porsche:
- so whats going on now
- Sylina:
- You didn't even capitalize it
- Sylina:
- that's the key signifier of a shitpost
- Thrice:
- she's too short to capitalize on anything
- Sylina:
- yes, I realize the irony
- Thrice:
- ANYWAY, LAST TIME ON THIS FUCKING GAME
- Thrice:
- SOMETHING SOMETHING WE HAVE YOUR MOM TIRK TURN OFF YOUR SPEAKER ON EVOLVE
- Thrice:
- ER MIC
- Thrice:
- AND THEN LIKE, YOU WERE HEADED HOME.
- Thrice:
- Well, to Sanjoku
- Thrice:
- not really home
- Thrice:
- you hate the place probably
- Sylina: (( so like... is Tirk playing Yunao? ))
- Thrice: (( I think I am, Tirk is playing Porsche probably ))
- Thrice: (( considering I kind of doubt she would have a problem going 1 hour from the place and left with you to go that 1 hour from the place ))
- Thrice: (( This is not right next to the the shrine, remember? ))
- Thrice: (( this happenened when you were like 10 minutes away from town ))
- Porsche:
- its noooot
- Sylina: (( No, the shrine is 5 hours out ))
- Sylina: (( be that from the town or the abbey, I don't know. ))
- Porsche:
- well I mean what else do we have to RP beyond actually finding chef zeff
- Sylina: (( not much ))
- Sylina: (( Skip to right after your call I guess ))
- Thrice: (( a little bit ))
- Thrice: (( You were 10 minutes from town ))
- Thrice: (( the abbey is an hour from town ))
- Thrice: (( the shrine is five hours ))
- Thrice: (( from the abbey ))
- Thrice: (( IDK why you think Porsche has to dip out IMMEDIATELY ))
- Thrice: (( she can still help fight the shrine guardian, the airship with baika won't be at Yuda for at least two days ))
- Thrice: (( and the airdock is in town, not at the abbey obv ))
- Sylina: (( I don't think she does, I was just trying to figure out where we were standing ))
- Thrice: (( I was talking to tirk ))
- Thrice: (( he's the one who seems to think that ))
- Sylina: (( did we reunite with Yin and Rei on the way back because like hell they were moving that quickly ))
- Thrice: (( But in any case, we're cleared up on it now ))
- Thrice: (( Doesn't matter much whether you meet them before town or in town ))
- Thrice: (( Also Fen did give you the name of the guy to look for but like ))
- Thrice: (( I didn't KNOW the name yesterday. ))
- Sylina: (( Kinda mattered. "Not at all" was also an option ))
- Porsche: (( wait so we're fighting the guardian today in-game or something ))
- Yin: (( It's perfectly possible to yes ))
- Yin: (( we could just have a short session or do a side mission to get MT acquainted with combat ))
- Porsche: (( ok so where are we supposed to be rn ))
- Yin: (( five minutes outside of town, roughly ))
- Sylina: (( My suggestion was hopping to the airship, right after you were done with your call and we're all actually together ))
- Yin: (( wait why ))
- Yin: (( you're not going to Nimae ))
- Yin: (( they're sending someone here ))
- Sylina: (( yeah but the airship is where the phone is. ))
- Yin: (( who ya gonna call ))
- Porsche: (( were we not just using the phone ))
- Sylina: (( the.. high matron. We already did. ))
- Yin: (( Oh right, the matron was AFTER Miyuki ))
- Sylina: (( yes. ))
- Yin: (( So yeah it probably took place in the airship ))
- Yin:
- "HEY! There you guys are! Where did you disappear to?!" Yin is trying her best to support Rei; considering she's physically the second strongest of the party, it's not too difficult
- Yin:
- I guess we can skip to the airship then
- Hideo: (( In case I'm zoned out, someone ping me on Discord if I happen to not be paying attention when it comes time to introduce me ))
- Porsche: (( wait were we not -at- the airship then ))
- Yin: (( We are now, we're skipping there ))
- Yin: (( To keep confusion to a minimum ))
- Sylina: (( I had to yell at Thrice to keep this shit goddam straight ))
- Yin: (( just ignore Yin's line ))
- Yin: (( there was going to be an event when you got to town but it's just too much fucking effort now ))
- Yin: (( idc ))
- Sylina: (( well shit next time acknowledge my suggestion and say we're not doing it, and what we're doing instead (crs) ))
- Yin:
- All right, so you've just finished talking to Fen fromt he airship's phone, and presumably know MT's character's name
- Sylina: (( Yin and Rei are there, right? ))
- Yin:
- Yeah, but to make it not weird that they were completely silent, they were in the sick bay putting Rei to rest
- Yin:
- and still are currently
- Sylina: (( aight ))
- Sylina:
- "Well? She agreed to the exchange? She certainly didn't sound pleased about it." @ Porsche
- Porsche:
- "Not at all, but it's happening anyway. At the very least, I should be free enough for just a scant few days to get something done if we really rush things. Still, the Matron did know of one other possible backup for us, but supposedly he's a little difficult to work with...."
- Porsche:
- "The matron's guard is bringing their express package treatment with Ms. Exoskeleton, so her delivery shouldn't take too long at least."
- Healed up! Recovered 77 HP.
- Sylina:
- "That's good..." Sylina nervously casts her eyes about the interior of the airship. "Say, Porsche - you were from the Chitin Clan, right?"
- Sylina:
- 8 Percep
- Sylina:
- dam
- Sylina: (( Looking for anything that they could be using to listen in ))
- Thrice:
- Sylina doesn't notice the pack of hyenas stationed in the top corner of the airshi[.
- Thrice:
- p
- Thrice:
- Nor does she notice much of anything else
- Sylina:
- "Do you know how they were doing that thing where they could just... hear, everything?"
- Yunao:
- "You're damn right she is."
- Sylina:
- "It unnerves me talking about our plans, knowing they could be listening in at any moment."
- Porsche:
- "Well, I was definitely born into the Chitin clan. Can't say I share much else beyond a blood connection and some bad childhood memories."
- Porsche:
- "I'm uhm...hmm..." 4 maybe i would know something about that but idk
- Sylina:
- prob not.
- Thrice:
- You ain't got a clue with a roll like that, what was that
- Thrice:
- It'd probably be a Mind check isntead of General Education for you
- Thrice:
- Since it's memories
- Porsche: (( well i wanted to roll knowledge but all of my knowledge skills are untrained ))
- Sylina: (( take the mind check ))
- 7
- Thrice:
- 3d6+mind value tirk
- Thrice:
- you can spend AP on these as well obviously
- Porsche:
- well shit what do i have to lose there
- Thrice:
- fights can ahppen in the middle of scenes
- Porsche:
- Porsche uses 1 AP!
- Sylina: (( I'm still not quite sure how spending AP on skill checks in non-combat situations works ))
- Sylina: (( oh I guess ))
- Thrice:
- w-why are you at half AP
- Porsche:
- for some reason its defaulted to 3 AP even tho i have 6
- Thrice:
- also you only had 6 max AP
- Thrice:
- you should have 7 I fixed it
- Porsche:
- 9
- Thrice:
- unless you were in the token then maptool unfixedi t
- Sylina: (( das still p bad ))
- Thrice:
- You can vaguely recall hearing about feuds in the Chitin clan concerning various members spying on others
- Thrice:
- Which certainly didn't help with the whole "clan war" thing
- Porsche:
- "Well I'm not sure how, but different families within the clan would often spy on each other with that ability. If I had to hazard a guess, they're probably utilizing differing fractured parts of animal functions to achieve this effect."
- Porsche:
- "You know that thing where a, if a flock of crows needs to memorize something, the entire flock will just know/regonize it? Even the crows that weren't actually there to see it?"
- Porsche:
- "I assume it's like that, also I think a flock of crows is actually referred to as a 'murder' and I honestly thing that's so hilariously fitting for this situation."
- Sylina:
- "A bit dark... but I suppose."
- Sylina:
- "So what are your plans for the next couple of days before the... well, reunion, I suppose?"
- Yin:
- Yin exits the door to the sick bay, "Hey, so, uh, Rei says she doesn't need a doctor, but I think maybe we oughta hurry up and get out of here to somewhere...more technologically advanced, you know? Your leader is not looking so good."
- Porsche:
- 'Well we're obviously short on time, but I should be able to at least assist you for uh...today and the next day, maybe."
- Porsche:
- "If we take Haroda's path I should even be able to help you out with the guardian spirit...but past there? Eeeh, it's a little hazy."
- Sylina:
- "You'll spend some time taking care of Rei, I hope... has she actually mentioned what's wrong with her, Yin?"
- Yin:
- "She won't say...and I'm no doctor. I can shove herbs in her face all day, but I have no idea if they're working."
- Porsche:
- "Ksss....I should look at her now. This doesn't seem like a good situation t be in."
- Yin:
- "What, are YOU a doctor?"
- Sylina:
- "Whether she wants one or not, we should go into town and see if we can find SOMEone who can help!"
- Porsche:
- "Not at all, but I should be able to gauge....ah nevermind, I'm just a little concerned is all. I'm not sure if there are any quality forms of health care around a village like this, but there should at least be -something-."
- Yin: (( now there are two options, you can have Yunao stay here to guard Rei or leave Yin to do it ))
- Porsche:
- So should we actually carry Rei into the village or just get a professional to come over here i'm not sure how long that would take
- Porsche:
- i guess it shouldnt take that long then
- Sylina: (( My vote is Yunao since Merge isn't here lol ))
- Porsche: (( yea sure Yunao is the slightly older of the sassy children here he should be more responsible ))
- Sylina: (( and also Yin might, technically still be an enemy? ))
- Sylina: (( who knows what that girl's thinking ))
- Yin:
- "Go ahead, I'll stick around here and...guard the place?"
- Yin:
- she's the only intelligent member of the party
- Yin:
- so def not any of you
- Sylina: (( ...so we're leaving both? ))
- Yunao:
- "No, I'll do it. I'd love some Shitin bastard to try and sneak in here."
- Yunao: (( ur not ))
- Sylina: (( m ))
- Sylina: (( not enoough typos ))
- Sylina: (( god ))
- Sylina: (( damn it ))
- Yin: (( (y) (hippo) (y) ))
- Yin:
- OH NO MY PLOT TO ASSASSINATE REI HAS FAILED I GUESS I MUST TAG ALONG WITH THESE MORONS LONGER
- Yin:
- "Whatever you say."
- Sylina:
- Sylina nods. "We shouldn't be long."
- Yin:
- And so you decide to head into town, presumably, to look for a potential doctor, and some guy no longer allowed to work on Metal Gear games
- Porsche:
- "So at the very least our supposed man for the job should be around this village somewhere....if he can't do it, then maybe he knows someone who can. He should be more familiar than i."
- Heng:
- How a Romanian and a Jap ended up with Chinese Noel Vermillion IDK
- Sylina:
- She looks adopted.
- Healed up! Recovered 0 HP.
- Healed up! Recovered 41 HP.
- Healed up! Recovered 41 HP.
- Sylina:
- we head to Yakimura's to ask around about the description
- Sylina:
- Yakimomo
- Sylina:
- I was close
- Sylina:
- Or the name.
- Sylina:
- whichever we got
- Sylina: (( I'm mapping back to Sanjoku if it matters ))
- Healed up! Recovered 63 HP.
- Sylina: (( it won't ))
- Hideo: (( Nanomachines. ))
- Sylina: (( those do probably exist ))
- Porsche:
- i at least know his name
- Sylina: (( or wait, he ain't an el doctore is he ))
- Sylina: (( I'll ask about the el doctore as well ))
- Thrice:
- Yeah sure head to Sanjoku
- Yakimomo:
- Yakimomo is in the middle of polishing glasses with a sombre expression when you YANK THE NONEXISTENT DOOR OFF ITS EQUALLY NONEXISTENT HINGES
- Yakimomo:
- Whether she or the glasses is sombre, you may never know
- Hideo: (( brb ))
- Yakimomo:
- "Hmm--OH! You are back! I-I feared the worst...you never returned from the abbey, it's been three days! Are you okay? You didn't run into trouble, did you? There have been...such ominous rumours of late."
- Sylina:
- "We're fine, for the most part. Rei's condition has exacerbated... that's largely why we're here. Is there a local doctor you could point us towards?"
- Yakimomo:
- "Condition...? Did you get attacked?"
- Alte:
- **WHISPERING LOUDLY* "Oh, man, it's those guys again! Hah, they can't even see us from over there, they don't even know we're here!"
- Theron:
- can't hear me either
- Hideo: (( back ))
- Sylina:
- "Yes and no. She thinks it's from the fight she had back in Nimae... her legs aren't functioning, even now, and her vision's been going blurry."
- Porsche:
- "While we're at it, we're also looking for this dude named Hideo. Not sure if he could help us or if he knows any doctors, but it'd be nice to see him anyway."
- Porsche:
- mrgrgr
- Yakimomo:
- "Wh-what...? But Rei was always so strong... She would never let her wounds bother her. Can you be certain she was not attacked more recently? They say there's a member of the Blackguard on the island, and they're working with the Chitin..."
- Sylina:
- Sylina's eyes dart back towards Alte, and briefly makes eye contact with her, groaning internally before being brought back to the conversation. "Wait, working WITH the Chitin?"
- Porsche:
- "I mean...she did get beat up by some kids recently, but I doubt any of them are capable of THAT...sounds like some funny business is going on..."
- Sylina:
- "The Blackguard member IS here, I can confirm that much."
- Sylina:
- "How much of their rank is out roaming the world right now...? I suppose it's possible that it's the same one who attacked Rei before..."
- Alte:
- Alte smiles at you, wondering if that grimace means you're in pain
- Yakimomo:
- "Y-you know? Did you meet them?! The blue masked man?! Don't tell me you fought him off...?"
- Sylina:
- "He wasn't masked. He identified himself as Wei - we DID fight, though it was more of a spar. Child's play, to him... and I was fighting with everything I had."
- Yakimomo:
- "Wei...that sounds familiar for some reason...Hmm...but all reports of this person have included the mask. He did have blue hair, though? Could be the same... Oh! That reminds me, you mentioned another name earlier? You werel ooking for a doctor?"
- Sylina:
- 13 god damn it, did he
- Sylina:
- I don't THINK he did
- Sylina:
- what color was his fuckin lapel pin you gonna quiz me on that next
- Sylina: (( oh no it was redbrown ))
- Yakimomo:
- he had red hair
- Yakimomo:
- reddish
- Thrice:
- I mean his literal name when he first showed up was "Red-Haired Man"
- Sylina:
- "No, red. So there IS another..."
- Sylina: (( hey. ))
- Sylina: (( hey. ))
- Sylina: (( Whatever. ))
- Alte:
- "Whoa, there's another one...? This is bad..."
- Sylina: (( I'll let u take the doctor thing Tirk ))
- Sylina: (( I should bathroom ))
- Theron:
- Theron shrugs, then realizes you might not have been able to see it, and as such throws a paper airplane around the corner at Sylina, which plops into her hair
- Porsche:
- "Yea, we were. We could wax on about who caused it in the first place, but right now we need some medical help, and fast."
- Theron:
- it says "*shrug*"
- Porsche:
- "Rei's condition hasn't been looking all too hot lately."
- Theron:
- a considerate man he is
- Porsche:
- whoops
- Yakimomo:
- ?
- Porsche:
- (DOG): Walk me or I shall wring u thru the seven depths of hell
- Yakimomo:
- ah
- Yakimomo:
- aight
- Porsche:
- (DOG): Or just shit on your router again either would work
- Yakimomo:
- go ahead and walk him
- Yakimomo:
- "Ah...you said as such, didn't you... There are many doctors in Yuda, in the underground. We are a capital city, after all!"
- Yakimomo:
- "As for a man named Hideo...there are a few. Do you know what he looks like?"
- Yunao:
- idk isn't it in the name
- Yunao:
- hideous
- Sylina:
- She jolts from the sudden contact, looks down at the airplane, grinds her teeth and crumples it up before throwing it back at the target. 20 Athletics? I dunno. "Hey! If you want in on the conversation, introduce yourself like a normal person!"
- Theron:
- >like a normal person
- Theron:
- tactful
- Sylina:
- for all I know you're just a jackass
- 23
- Theron:
- Theron catches the airplane and unfolds it, disappointed there's nothing new written on it
- Alte:
- "'Normal person'. Ouch man, that's harsh. You gonna take that?"
- Theron:
- He just shrugs again, and starts folding a paper Fat Man full of glitter
- Yin:
- "...hey, are you flirting with Headphone Guy again?"
- Sylina:
- "If that ends up anywhere near my hair, you aren't going to like what happens next!"
- Sylina:
- "Again? Explain to me when, exactly I did it the first time, so I can know how to avoid it in the future."
- Yin:
- "I'm pretty sure that's what flirting is, right? Mutual expressions of hatred?"
- Sylina:
- "I'd like to think not."
- Sylina:
- "But, now that you've forced the interaction..."
- Sylina:
- "Excuse me." @ Porsche/Yankeedoodle
- Sylina:
- "So, how goes looking for an airship back home?"
- Theron:
- Porsche...?
- Sylina:
- yeh I removed myself from that conversation over there
- Alte:
- OH, okay
- Theron:
- Theron slowly puts the Fat Man back in his backpack
- Theron:
- but now you know it's there
- Sylina:
- I do
- Alte:
- "Badly. Barely anybody's coming in because of all the rumours."?
- Alte:
- -?
- Alte:
- "The Chitin Clan, a member of the Blackguard working WITH THEM, and now, apparently, another Blackguard? There's no way anyone in their right mind would come here!"
- Theron:
- Theron looks at you like 'so what does that say about us'
- Sylina:
- "You WERE warned."
- Sylina:
- "Though we didn't know about the Blackguard member..."
- Alte:
- "We're a special case, Theron! Like we have to be afraid of any rumours."
- Yin:
- "Special case indeed..."
- Sylina:
- "...look, let's just skip to the inevitable. We all know you're just going to end up tagging along on our airship again - but actually, that could be of help to us this time."
- Alte:
- "Oh yeah? Sweet! That mean this one's free?"
- Theron:
- why do you even give a shit it's my money
- Sylina:
- "Rei's come down with something awful, and we could use someone capable watching over her while we complete our mission here in Yuda."
- Sylina:
- "Think of it as a mutual favor."
- 22 31
- 23
- Theron:
- Theron scribbles on his notepad, 'And you want us to babysit your boss?'
- Sylina:
- @Alte "Should I be writing this down, or can he actually hear me?"
- Alte:
- Alte thinks for a minute, frowning, "I gueessss that could work? Is that really an even trade?" You can tell she doesn't really mean the frown tho, she's pretty happy bout it
- Alte:
- "He can hear you just fine, he's got hearing aids, I think. Just can't speak."
- Theron:
- He stares at you for a solid minute
- Theron:
- Then points to his headphones
- Theron:
- And holds up a piece of paper saying "IF I COULDN'T FUCKING HEAR I WOULDN'T BE WEARING THESE NOW WOULD I"
- Theron:
- in cursive
- Sylina:
- I DUNNO YOU MIGHT
- Theron:
- "WHAT DO YOU THINK THESE ARE"
- Theron:
- "EARMUFFS"
- Theron:
- "DEVICES TO KEEP THE ALIENS FROM PROBING MY BRAIN"
- Sylina:
- "I thought that's why you put the music up so loud in the first place! You being practically deaf was the only explanation I could come up with!"
- Theron:
- "FASHION STATEMENTS"
- Sylina:
- "If nothing else, you SHOULD be deaf!"
- Theron:
- "DID YOU THINK SOMEONE PUT THESE ON THERE AS A JOKE AND I JUST NEVER NOTICED"
- Theron:
- "BECAUSE I COULDN'T HEAR"
- Porsche:
- ok im back from dogs
- Porsche:
- what i miss
- Theron:
- agi asked if the guy listening to music could hear
- Sylina:
- I left the plot and went to talk to plorf
- Porsche:
- So DID we get a physical description for Kojima
- Theron:
- 'i just like loud music and it annoys people near me'
- Theron:
- 'sometimes people far away from me'
- Theron:
- You did
- Sylina:
- "...but yes, in simple terms. Only for the few days it should take to make our raid on the stronghold."
- Alte:
- "Weeeeelll, it's kind of a downer, but sure. We can at least make sure she stays okay."
- Alte:
- "Is it still docked in the smae place?"
- Sylina:
- "Of course."
- Porsche:
- "Yea, he looks kinda like an old scruffy fellow with (other defining features). You wouldn't happen to know, would you?"
- Rei:
- k i l l m e
- Sylina:
- you love them
- Alte:
- "All right then...uh, guess we'd better go now, huh?"
- Theron:
- 'Sure. Hey, dragon girl, can you fight or is that stick thing a baton?'
- Sylina:
- "Don't worry, you can take your time. We have Yunao watching over her right now."
- Yakimomo:
- "Oh, hm. I think I have heard of him...but what would you want with him? Are you looking for a meal...?"
- Sylina:
- "...my LANCE is not a baton, boy. I've seen more battles than you've seen faces twisted in annoyance.""
- Theron:
- 'But not more than I've seen battles.'
- Sylina:
- "I'd need to check your math."
- Porsche:
- "Well, it has been a pretty long morning, so that'd be appreciated, yes. But most of all we're looking for him because our superior told us he's our only backup around, and I might be busy for a little taking care of some....special business."
- Alte:
- "All right, no showing off! Can't have you two getting frisky in here..."
- Alte:
- "And we've got an invalid to watch!"
- Yakimomo:
- "B-backup? If you say so... Um, it feels in bad taste to give his location out to those who are only strangers to him, but I will trust you..."
- Yakimomo:
- She gives you directions to the guy's house, which is underground, as with most housi and businessi in Sanjoku
- Sylina:
- "I defend the city of Nimae with an... UNFORGIVABLY small amount of support, and nearly take a member of the Blackguard to his knees, and you DARE question if I can fight? If YOU'VE seen so much combat, where were YOU when the Chitin Clan invaded?"
- Theron:
- He raises an eyebrow at you, but ultimate writes nothing
- Alte:
- "We were looking for...Zack? I think that's his name. Our pilot guy, remembeR? He ditched us!"
- Alte:
- "I do feel kinda bad, though...had we known we might have been able to drive that crazy lady off."
- Porsche:
- Porsche looks at the papers for a bit and nods. "It's all right, I don't expect this to be an easy recruitment by any means, but it's worth a shot to increase our chances of success during these hard times."
- Porsche:
- "Now what are you fooling around with this time, Sylina?"
- Yin:
- "Girl's bad with names, ain't she?"
- Yakimomo:
- Yakimomo looks down all wondrouslike, "I-is food truly of that much importance in battle...M-maybe I should pay more heed to my menu..."
- Sylina:
- "Just these two again... they've agreed to help watch over Rei in exchange for another ride. Airships have been avoiding this town like the plague, apparently..."
- Sylina:
- "...that pilot of yours, Zack. You say he ditched you - could he just not find you, or was his airshp simply missing?"
- Sylina:
- er
- Sylina:
- *could you just not find him
- Alte:
- "Well, the first place we looked when he didn't show was "
- Alte:
- the airport, of course!"
- Porsche:
- "Good to know! Well about the former at least. Seems this place is only getting hazier by the minute. Let's hope we can put things straight soon."
- Alte:
- "...wait, the THIRD? Fourth? Uh, We checked a couple restaurants firts."
- Alte:
- first
- 16 22
- Alte:
- "Thought maybe he'd got the wrong one, yeah?"
- Sylina:
- "Right..."
- Alte:
- "But no, the airship was nowhere. He must've left for some reason. He always was kind of a coward...maybe he took off when he heard about the Chitin."
- Alte:
- "And just thought it'd be best to not tell us! Seriously, what a prick."
- Sylina:
- "Or maybe..."
- Sylina: (( I mean like ))
- Sylina: (( MAYBE they took him ))
- Sylina: (( And the airship, I would ))
- Sylina:
- "Is he the type of person who you'd EXPECT to do that?"
- Alte:
- "WEEEEELLLL....he was kinda flaky..."
- Alte:
- I mean he didn't even show up to the restaurant
- Alte:
- "But, I don't know...."
- 23
- Yin:
- "Hhmm....seems fishy to me...But right now, we have bigger issues, right?"
- Sylina:
- "We do, admittedly, but it's been bothering me, wondering how the Chitin Clan were able to transport their victims all this distance, so quickly... it's possible they stole your friend's airship."
- Yin:
- "Or maybe they have their own airship? Like, a really fast one?"
- Yin:
- "...or maybe they just use birdpeople..."
- Sylina:
- silly Yin
- Sylina:
- birds aren't bugs
- Alte:
- "E-eh...I hadn't thought of that...It'd explain why he hasn't contacted us or answered our calls! But...What does that mean, exactly? That...they've got Zack, too?"
- Sylina:
- "They WERE looking for people to experiment on..."
- Theron:
- Theron scribbles a ton on his notepad, 'Think they kidnapped our pilot? I doubt it. But if they did, I'd think we should go with you, instead of watching your ship.'
- Alte:
- "...well..."
- Alte:
- "We don't want them to take THEIR ship."
- Sylina: (( I'm slightly concerned about bringing too many people to the fight. ))
- Sylina:
- "Porsche will already be staying behind - if one of you wants to come with us, I won't object to the extra help."
- Sylina:
- "If they DO come to attempt to steal our ship, having one of you present would help to deter them."
- Alte:
- "Maybe, but...Well, I guess I can go with you, and Theron can guard the ship? Trust me, he's pretty capable!"
- Theron:
- 'Yeah sure you just stay right here I'll get right on that.' He rises from his seat, and starts heading toward the door, 'Same place?'
- Sylina:
- "Same place."
- Porsche:
- "Well I guess more members of our small army wouldn't hurt. Now, if you don't mind, I'm just gonna go ahead and try and look for our man of the hour."
- Sylina:
- ye let's get to MT
- Sylina:
- if he's here
- Porsche:
- I go down the Warp Pipe and into world 1-2
- Theron:
- He walks out the door, and you can feel the smugness as he tosses the Fat Man into the middle of the room and bolts
- Sylina:
- u son of a BITCH
- Alte:
- "YOU SON OF A BITCH"
- Sylina: (( we need an AoE marker ))
- Alte:
- it's a glitter bomb.
- Sylina: (( I nkow. ))
- Alte:
- It would cover the whole city if not for the walls.
- Sylina: (( k ))
- Sylina: (( oh. ))
- Sylina: (( is that like ))
- Sylina: (( a thing? ))
- Alte: (( you know like, those snake-in-a-can things ))
- Alte: (( imagine that but with pure glitter ))
- Alte: (( and with five times the force ))
- Sylina:
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8taEx249cs
- Sylina: (( come on get to the big kaboom ))
- Sylina: (( oh god damn it that was nothing ))
- Alte: (( this is a sound-powered one ))
- Alte: (( the sound of a million loops of Elton John songs all playing at once ))
- Sylina:
- "What in the name of-!"
- Porsche:
- I'll just assume it's exactly the one in the video
- Yin: (( nah ))
- Yin: (( it's literally a bomb ))
- Sylina: (( find a good one ))
- Sylina: (( I need visuals ))
- Yin: (( to assume something you have to like ))
- Yin: (( not know ))
- Yin: (( imagine a military-grade smoke bomb ))
- Yin: (( but with glitter instead of smoke. ))
- Porsche: (( also was i out of the room when he made everything glitter ))
- Yin: (( there are no warp pipes son but sure you can leave the party behind doesn't bother me ))
- Yin: (( MT's not even here anyway ))
- Sylina: (( This one is at least somewhat satisfying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48n7yiYOOuc ))
- Porsche: (( fine u living pile of PJSalt i guess im glitter ))
- Yin: (( I ain't salty I don't gaf m8 ))
- Hideo: (( I've been here. ))
- Yin: (( WELL SHIT WHY DID YOU NOT SAY ANYTHING ))
- Hideo: (( You guys were doing stuff. ))
- Porsche: (( bc we still havent gotten to him yet ))
- Yin: (( I THOUGHT YOU WERE LOST AT SEA NONE OF THIS WAS IMPORTANT TIRK FELL ASLEEP THREE TIMES ))
- Sylina:
- "What is - pbbth, what IS all this?!"
- Hideo: (( Oh, you messaged me in the -non- tabletop group. ))
- Yin: (( It's an @ it works across everything (crs) ))
- Yin: (( i told u they were useless tirk ))
- Yin: (( i warned u ))
- Porsche:
- "This is just getting silly now..." Porc covers her face with her hat
- Yin:
- "GEHK! It's in my ey--my hai--aGH, WHAT IS THIS?"
- Hideo: (( I looked at the actual tabletop one and there wasn't a message since 5:00 ))
- Rokurou:
- Twilt, of course, dies
- Sylina:
- "It's everywhere! It's in EVERYTHING!"
- Porsche:
- "Military grade hats, always useful in oddly specific situations like this."
- Rokurou:
- his edge too harshly harshed
- Yakimomo:
- Yakimomo's food is now filled with glitter, "That mongrel, I'll kill him! I can't serve this!"
- Resting Samurai:
- The samurai's HARD LIQUOR is similarly flooded
- Resting Samurai:
- "It's a good thing I was already gay." He says as he downs the shit anyway
- Sylina:
- "DON'T YOU DARE DO ANYTHING LIKE THIS TO THE AIRSHIP!"
- Sylina:
- and then he dies of glitter poisoning
- Theron:
- What's a little glitter in wounds gonna hurt
- Alte:
- "That's it, I'm goin' after him! Whenever you get ready to storm that place, come tell me!"
- Sylina:
- I'mma go back to the airship and like
- Sylina:
- change
- Porsche:
- "*Grumbles* Now how are we gonna make a good first impression looking like we just got barfed out by a unicorn? This shit'll take days to wash out."
- Sylina:
- this is exactly why I had you make that token Tirk
- Yin:
- "I don't have any more clothes! Besides, if I scrub all this out of my hair... Nevermind, I'll deal."
- Yin:
- "I look enough like a fairy anyway!"
- Sylina:
- "We can buy you new clothes, those are ruined. I'm changing."
- Yin:
- So
- Yin:
- We're going in to Mt's house looking like a fairy
- Yin:
- A glitter-covered prostitute
- Yin:
- And a FAT glitter-covered prostitute
- Sylina:
- his wife is gonna hate us
- Yin:
- And now we can properly go to MT's house
- Yin:
- which is still in this map bc all underground city video game maps are dwarven
- Yin:
- and like
- Yin:
- fuck that
- Porsche:
- phinally
- Sylina:
- hey demondicks we're here to step on your house again
- Deman:
- "...what do you people want? I was kind of hoping you'd left by now."
- Porsche:
- "Just passin' on through. Following these directions to some scruffy guy's house is all."
- Porsche:
- "This place is a little more labyrithine than I expected."
- Porsche:
- i dont know how thats spelled and i dont care
- Deman:
- byzantine
- Deman:
- it's spelled byzantine
- Deman:
- "...oh, and you're going to go through MY hous--FINE, whatever, just go."
- Sylina:
- "It's pretty unclear where house ends and ground begins..."
- Porsche:
- is the underground just like starbound/terraria
- Deman:
- no it's like
- Deman:
- an underground city
- Deman:
- those exist
- Porsche:
- where u have to break into peoples houses to get to the other side
- Deman:
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underground_City,_Montreal
- Sylina:
- "I think we should have brushed up on the traveler's guide."
- Yin:
- "Wh-whoa...I've never seen so much light..."
- Porsche: (( isnt that just a mall ))
- Sylina:
- "Underground, you mean?"
- Porsche: (( it sure looks like a mall ))
- Sylina:
- unless it's just brighter than the sun
- Porsche: (( why does the underground look exactly like a mall ))
- Sylina:
- it looks like inside, modern
- Yin: (( that's what underground cities are ))
- Yin: (( they look like indoors ))
- Yin: (( bc they're indoors ))
- Yin: (( you build shit around the rock ))
- Sylina:
- but yeah let's just trudge through the guy's living room I guess
- Sylina:
- don't trip over his cat
- Porsche:
- "These directions written down here should explain things well enough, even if we have to knock over a few things in the process."
- Yin:
- "Er, anywhere but when I'm looking straight at the sun."
- Yin:
- "I...guess we shoulda believed them when they said this place was the capital."
- Porsche:
- "That's just one of the risks you gotta take when following directions."
- Porsche: (( so im just imagining like ))
- Yin:
- "I was starting to think it was, like...in name only..."
- Porsche: (( stage 3 of Subterranian Animism ))
- Porsche: (( which im sure you played because u love 2hu and played all the games to completion ))
- Sylina:
- "Like Olympia?"
- Yin: (( basically it IS a giant underground three-story mall ))
- Yin: (( with residential areas ))
- Yin: (( like ))
- Yin: (( you know how subway plazas are underground but not all rock and shit? ))
- Porsche:
- "Just one of the risks you gotta take I guess..."
- Yin: (( it's like that. ))
- Porsche: (( yea but those are actually made with modern developmental techniques and shit ))
- Yin: (( as is this one ))
- Porsche: (( by all accounts Sanjoku is just ancient japan ))
- Sylina: (( the concerning thing is the implication that EVERYONE WHO HAS TO GO UNDERGROUND has to walk through this guy's house. ))
- Yin: (( the ABOVEGROUND part is ))
- Porsche:
- Deman: It's a living
- Yin: (( they don't you just chose to ))
- Sylina: (( And the Splintered Crown Dynasty is just ancient China ))
- Sylina: (( But we're the most technologically advanced society or something ))
- Porsche: (( WELL I FEEL LIKE THAT'S A PRETTY MAJOR THING TO LEAVE OUT at least in terms of setting the scene ))
- Yin: (( The scene, aboveground, is ancient japan ))
- Yin: (( there is no modernitis there ))
- Yin: (( it is only belowground ))
- Yin: (( and people did mention it ))
- Porsche: (( I was under the impression this whole place was literally just old japan ))
- Yin: (( they don't defile the land above ground ))
- Porsche: (( but enough talk ))
- Porsche: (( have at u ))
- Yin: (( You've never been here ))
- Yin: (( and u didn't read the brochure ))
- Yin: (( so that's an easy enough assumption to make ))
- Yin: (( But yeah, you can follow the directions to Mt's place pretty simply ))
- Sylina:
- we do so
- Yin: (( cool ))
- Yin: (( I ain't in charge here no more kids ))
- Porsche:
- "This place is bigger than I expecte....well, I'm not sure how big I expected this place to be in the first place, but travelling through here sure takes it out of you. Hopefully we can eat something soon, all these restaurants around me have been taunting me like the worst of succubi." Are we there yet
- Yin:
- Yin: (( I ain't in charge here no more kids ))
- Yin: (( according to aggs you're already there (gst) ))
- Sylina: (( that'd b cool ))
- Sylina:
- the worst or the best
- Porsche:
- do we have a map for this broh
- Yin:
- fuckin no son
- Yin:
- i already said all the maps of underground shit is dorves
- Sylina:
- "I don't know either. It's a completely different world down here... Oh! It looks like we've reached the residential district. He's somewhere in E, right?"
- Porsche:
- but we just need an indoor map
- Yin:
- there you go sundance
- Sylina:
- this is outside.
- Porsche:
- "E-102, this should be the place." dong ding
- Yin: (( sides you were the one always complaining about new maps at the start of this game (D) ))
- Porsche:
- but im not complaining about the lack of maps
- Porsche:
- just that I do very much have indoor maps
- Porsche:
- and that it being underground shouldn't be an issue since according to u it's just like a modern underground mall city
- Yin: (( I have indoor maps but none of them fit ))
- Yin: (( I do not, you see, have any modern underground mall city maps. ))
- Hideo: (( SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS. ))
- Hideo: (( Classic Chinese Restaurant map ))
- Porsche: (( thats what i would choose if I was thrice ))
- Porsche: (( so make of that what u will ))
- Sylina:

- he dinged ur dong
- Porsche:
- ding fries are done
- Porsche:
- ding your dongers
- Yin:
- there's a new map u pizza shits
- Yin:
- if there was a sufferable here
- Sylina:
- this is wrong
- Yin:
- you guys would be so far in that shit whoever pulled you out would be crowned king of britain
- Sylina:
- this isn't just wrong
- Sylina:
- it's DELIBERATELY wrong
- Kujo:
- this isnt turtles paradise
- Sylina:
- I feel betrayed
- Sylina:
- fucking
- Sylina:
- let down.
- Kujo:
- this isnt turtles paradise at -all-
- Yin:
- of course it isn't he's not chinese
- Yin: (( he's JAPANESE ))
- Kujo:
- this isnt japanese either
- Yin:
- look at the mats, they're cats
- Sylina:
- this is like
- Yin:
- this is CLEARLY as japanese as it fucking gets-neko
- Sylina:
- persian
- Sylina:
- or "RPG
- Sylina:
- "
- Porsche:
- "So uh...is he home?" ding dong x2
- Yin:
- "It's a restaurant, you morons! They don't have doorbells, you walk in!"
- Yin:
- Jesus I really AM the only person with General Education
- Yin:
- "I grew up eating LEAVES and I know this."
- Sylina:
- but
- Sylina:
- it was the RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT
- Sylina:
- WHY DO YOU KEEP CHANGING THINGS
- Yin: (( Hey I didn't say SHIT bout no residential district, let's sayou walked through it ))
- Yin: (( sometimes things are on the other sides of things ))
- Sylina: (( we clearly thought we were going to his house (crs) ))
- Yin: (( u didn't ask and she didn't say ))
- Yin: (( But yes you are now there ))
- Sylina: (( his house? ))
- Yin:
- his restaurant
- Yin:
- where he would be
- Yin:
- during the day
- Porsche:
- i didnt know he lived in a restaurant
- Yin: (( he works in one though many people do live above their restaurants ))
- Porsche:
- well i guess we go above the restaurant then
- Yin: (( HE IS WORKING IN THE GODDAMNED RESTAURANT ))
- Yin: (( LIKE PEOPLE WITH JOBS DO ))
- Sylina: (( he's old, he's retired. ))
- Yin: (( dude it's japan ))
- Porsche:
- he's old Solid Snack
- Yin: (( retirement age is 95 ))
- Sylina: (( What made you think he was from here originally? ))
- Yin: (( he's here now, also his name is Hideo. ))
- Yin: (( Either way, NONE OF THIS MATTERS AT ALL. ))
- Sylina: (( THAT MEANS NOTHING> ))
- Yin: (( Like god DAMN just let MT exist ))
- Porsche: (( then why do u keep talking about it when im trying to get to the point ))
- Yin: (( stop arguing about why he shouldn't yet ))
- Sylina: (( remember when you said it was up to us ))
- Yin: (( this is the address you were given, IDK, ASK FOR THE GUY or something ))
- Sylina: (( and told us to direct the scene ))
- Yin: (( I said that because I thought the talking with MT was going to start immediately. ))
- Yin: (( Because there was no reason it should not. ))
- Sylina: (( then pulled the rug out from under our feet and said "haha you guys are fuckin MORONS, you didn't go to his house, you went to his RESTAURANT" ))
- Yin: (( oh for christ's sake ))
- Sylina: (( remember when charity towards players existed ))
- Yin: (( I don't CARE, who CARES., you're at his HOUSE ))
- Sylina: (( and malicious assumptions weren't the norm ))
- Yin: (( just GET ON WITH IT ))
- Sylina: (( we can't ))
- Yin: (( I'm going to get some juice and you had better be talking by the time I get back ))
- Porsche:
- Either way
- Sylina: (( bring me some ))
- Porsche:
- you can probably replace ding donging with some attempt to get his attention
- Sylina: (( Hey MT do we meet you at your house or at your restaurant ))
- Sylina: (( do you even HAVE a restaurant ))
- Sylina: (( is it Chez Dix ))
- Hideo: (( You meet me at my restaurant which is also my house because they can have more than one floor. ))
- Sylina: (( is it Chez Dix ))
- Porsche:
- "Hmm, this place is...a lot busier than expected. Didn't expect it to be so commercial-lookin' either." I guess we wander around to find whoever responds the most to the name "Hideo"
- Hideo: (( Are you just going around SHOUTING "ARE YOU HIDEO?!" at people? ))
- Sylina:
- yes.
- Sylina:
- "Why were we given an address to a restaurant? Is he a regular patron? An employee?"
- Porsche: (( more like "I'M LOOKING FOR HIDEOS" ))
- Yin:
- "What are you asking me for, I don't even read this language."
- Sylina:
- "Can't a girl wonder out loud?"
- Yin:
- "I mean yeah, if she wants to look more insane than a glitter-haired chick in a nightgown already does walking into a restaurant."
- Porsche:
- "I mean, it's not uncommon for restaurant owners to have their housing situated above their restaurant, so I'm gonna guess he's a big time worker here."
- Sylina:
- "Look, it was that or the armor, and I really didn't feel like explaining it. We have enough to go over."
- Yin:
- we're looking for a soldier right
- Yin:
- he's probably the one carrying the giant fucking sword
- Hideo: (( I have like six swords. Per tirk's request. ))
- Yin:
- even better
- Yin:
- SOMEONE is gonna have to be fuckin proactive here and it ain't gonna be me
- Yin:
- one of you sons of bitches phatcat the fuck up
- Sylina: (( Tirk already went around asking for Hideo ))
- Hideo:
- The old man behind the counter sighs loudly before pushing open the door behind the counter. He steps out and confronts the loud troublemakers, "You three gonna order anything, or are you just gonna harass my customers...?"
- Sylina:
- "Ah! Your customers? Would that make you the owner of this restaurant"?
- Porsche:
- "Sure, I'd be right happy to. Right as soon as we find this Hideo fellow. You wouldn't happen to know him, would you? We've come too dang far for this."
- Hideo:
- "Yer damn right it does, and I don't appreciate you barking 'Where's Hideo?' at my paying customers." The old man sighs once more and shakes his head to the side, "Anyone who comes down here is either looking for food or -some- sort of trouble, so what the hell do you want?"
- Sylina:
- dats a gewd querstin
- Sylina: (( Remind me, it was Fen who gave the name, right? ))
- Sylina: (( do we recall what she specifically reccommended him for? ))
- Hideo: (( Is Fen DA BAWSS? ))
- Sylina: (( Rei is the boss ))
- Sylina: (( Fen is like ))
- Sylina: (( the queen ))
- Sylina: (( kind of ))
- Sylina: (( Nimae's the capital of whereverthehell right ))
- Yin: (( the queen of the next continent over ))
- Hideo: (( Who's the one who's missing their kiddo? ))
- Yin: (( Nimae is the continent of Veer ))
- Yin: (( you are on the continent of Yuda ))
- Sylina: (( That's Haroda, the shrine... tender? ))
- Yin: (( nimae is the capital of Veer ))
- Sylina: (( not guardian ))
- Sylina: (( He's in charge of the local abbey ))
- Hideo: (( So who sent them to find me? o3o ))
- Yin: (( he's the head nun ))
- Yin: (( Fen did ))
- Sylina: (( Fen, I think. ))
- Sylina: (( I do not recall what for, it was Tirk's conversation ))
- Porsche: (( Fen is the one missing her kid ))
- Yin: (( so naturally, nobody remembers ))
- Porsche: (( and also recommended u ))
- Sylina: (( okay, they were both missing kids. ))
- Porsche: (( somehow I remembered something and not thrice/agi ))
- Hideo: (( Now how do Iiiiii know Fenfen (HMM) ))
- Sylina: (( Fen's kid is less "kid" ))
- Sylina: (( and more "son" ))
- Sylina: (( And even more "second in command of Nimae" ))
- Sylina: (( Haroda is actually missing one of the children from the recent attack on the abbey ))
- Yin: (( I ain't sayin shit in regards to things you should know ))
- Porsche:
- "Well, I guess some food would be nice, I'm just about almost dead here. And I guess we are looking for trouble, if you use a really loose definition of it. We're here to pick you up to deal with a pretty serious situation by Lady Fen's request."
- Yin: (( unless of course you not remembering it would be catastrophic or it should be common sense ))
- Porsche:
- "You should know who that is, right? She had a passing knowledge of you at the very least."
- Unknown command: "oo In terms of how you know Fen, she's the queen of the neighbouring country(the Korea place), you might have served for her or she may just know of you as a soldier". Try /help for a list of commands.
- Sylina:
- "By any definition, this should be considered trouble..."
- Yin: (( Veer however is very, very rarely involved in any combat ))
- Yin: (( the chitin invasion was p much the first hostility they'd seen in a long long time ))
- Hideo: (( Well would it be common knowledge for me to know who Fen is personally? o3o ))
- Yin: (( Probably yeah ))
- Sylina: (( Even if you didn't have direct experience with her ))
- Sylina: (( You probably know who she is ))
- Hideo: (( Well I assume I have direct knowledge of her if she told you to find me specifically ))
- Sylina: (( you know who the Emperor of China is don't yo- actually well I guess you don't. I don't. You might. ))
- Sylina: (( Maybe I should. ))
- Yin: (( you don't know who the president of MEXICO is agi ))
- Yin: (( china... ))
- Yin: (( china has not had an emperor in over half a century agi ))
- Sylina: (( A) fuck u B)POINT IS YOU DON'T KNOW WHO THEIR SUPREME LEADER IS EITHER ))
- Yin: (( the PRESIDENT of China is Jinping ))
- Hideo: (( guiz, plz ))
- Yin: (( You know her obviously ))
- Sylina: (( don't worry this is healthy ))
- Sylina: (( It's your line ))
- Hideo: (( Well I guess I'll take this HOWEVER I DAMN PLEASE ))
- Yin: (( perhaps not on like, a personal level, but either you're famous enough for her to single out or you've dealt with her in the past - she does hire mercenaries to do things like clear out some of the woods or such ))
- Yin: (( So she might have hired you in the past ))
- Yin: (( or to defend the city from monsters, those exist ))
- Yin: (( and can get through the forest since they LIVE in the forest ))
- Hideo:
- Hideo appears plainly annoyed at this, "The hell does that damned harpy want now?"
- Hideo:
- "She should know damn well I'm not a sellsword anymore."
- Fen:
- At least he's more respectful than Porsche.
- Sylina:
- "ExCUSE me?"
- Heng:
- "Daaad, are you talking shit about mom again?"
- Sylina:
- "While I'll respect your choice to put down your sword, I question the tone you use in reference to Lady Fen."
- Porsche:
- "It's a pretty long story all things considered. Our residential harpy has had her boy kidnapped by Chitin goons...." Porsche get a little weak in the legs. "Actually, I think I'll go ahead an' order now, I need some gosh darn energy to keep going on like this."
- Hideo:
- "This has nothing to do with your mother, Heng!" He turns his attention back to Sylina, "A right lady, eh? You must be new to this...my condolences."
- Hideo: (( What a weird name, Heng... ))
- Sylina:
- she hung
- Heng: (( it's a chinese name ))
- Porsche: (( heng like a herse ))
- Heng: (( heng from the ceiling ))
- Porsche: (( heng meilang ))
- Fen:
- To be fair he's not entirely inaccurate
- Fen:
- she smothered you to death with opium fumes when you first met her.
- Sylina: (( I recall that. ))
- Sylina:
- "Hardly 'new,' I simply see value in maintaining a certain level of respect. But yes, to get to the root of the matter, I'm sure you've heard the rumors about Chitin activity circling about? The Matron's son is among the captives, and... long story short, we're looking to stage a rescue mission."
- Porsche:
- "Let me just check your menu real quick....anyway, who knows what kind of ramifications turning the son of a major world leader into a mindless experimental animal zombie could have on international affairs."
- Sylina:
- "You're a skilled man, I hear, and there's any number of ways you could help us out, should you choose to do so..."
- Hideo:
- "How unfortunate for her. I'll gladly feed you, assuming you can pay the bill. That's about the full extent of my services though."
- Yin:
- "Look, jackass, we're trying to rescue the...low patron of Nimae! The second most important person in a whole damn COUNTRY! And a little kid, too!"
- Porsche:
- "That's no way to treat an old war buddy, Hideo...just kidding, I've only met you today. You're free to do what you want, but keep in mind, the reason why we had to go all the way out here to ask is because we're in desperate need of someone of your calibur to make this mission in a timely fashion, as we've unfortunately hit a little...snag."
- Sylina:
- Sylina nods. "There's quite a lot at stake here."
- Sylina:
- "We're going to be pushing through the Shinda Shrine to save time, despite the risks."
- Hideo:
- "Heh, guess that harpy must be in quite the bind if she's desperate enough to try and drag this old man back into it..." Hideo shakes his head as if to clear it, "But still, you have to understand that I have very little to gain from such a request..."
- Sylina:
- "We hope to pacify the goddess - personally, I hoped you'd be interested in helping prepare the offering."
- Hideo:
- "Like I said...if you've got the coin, I'll make food."
- Yin:
- "You could get a LOT of coin from helping us, you know?"
- Yin:
- "That old lady is loaded."
- Yin:
- "Uhhh...let's put this in terms you understand, like, baked potato loaded!"
- Yin:
- Porsche: **audibly drools*
- Porsche:
- "Also i guess I'll have the Spicy (Whatever this worlds equivalent of Pork is) Dumplings, I haven't had something like that in too long....*ahem* but yeah the sassy child is right. I myself fully intend on starting a better life for me and (what remains of) my family as soon as I get the prize money from this mess."
- Hideo:
- "I'm well aware of that witch's ways. Being a sellsword's all good and fun until you get stiffed on the payment and left to lick your wounds."
- Heng:
- "...do I gotta make this chick's food? She looks like she's MADE of dumplings, does she REALLY need any more?"
- Sylina:
- "We were paid up front for our defense of Nimae."
- Hideo:
- Hideo laughs, "Well that's a change of pace. Guess word got out that the witch wasn't paying for her dirty work."
- Yin:
- "I'm pretty sure she'd pay us if we rescue her SON!"
- Yin:
- "Rei's pretty confident about it, anyway..."
- Porsche:
- "And let me tell you, I've been there, it sucks. If this mission ends up costing us more than the payment itself, I'll be right there with you protesting the cold exploitation of workers like that. But I feel like this is a situation I wouldn't be able to forgive myself for if we failed."
- Sylina:
- "She didn't strike me as a dishonest person... a difficult person, but one who could be counted on to do the right thing when it counted."
- Hideo:
- "I'm just tellin' you off of experience, girl." He turns his attention to Heng, "Go ahead and get the order ready for that one." He turns back to Sylina, "I'm not an unreasonable man, but this is a situation where you're asking for a might lot of me..."
- Heng:
- Heng ferries herself back to the kitchen to make pork for Porksche
- Yin:
- "Oh, and it's any less for us? There's a kid younger than me who's going! For NOTHING! Heck, he's already in enemy territory by now..."
- Sylina:
- "At the very least, could you help with the offering?" Sylina's getting flustered. "We need everything in our favor that we CAN to get through that deathtrap!"
- Sylina:
- "You'd think that reconciling with the goddess would be motivation enough!"
- Hideo:
- Hideo exhales, "Maybe if you keep your friend's mouth shut, I'll consider it. She seems to think I have some sort of obligation."
- Yin:
- "Ah-ha! That's where you're mistaken! I have no friends!"
- Yin:
- "These guys still consider me an enemy, pretty sure."
- Sylina:
- "I don't think Porsche was ever capable of thinking of you as an enemy."
- Sylina:
- "I hold only a mild resentment for the brand."
- Hideo:
- "Well then, I suppose we should talk business."
- Porsche:
- "All right sir, just keep it in mind that if we can succeed in this mission, we'll have successfully averted a catastrophe that could very well effect the state of your well being here."
- Sylina:
- "I wish our leader was here to negotiate..."
- Porsche:
- "Ships and travellers are already starting to cut all ties to this place as a result of mere rumors and hearsay. I can only imagine what would happen if any of those were to come objectively true..."
- Yin:
- "I don't think Rei's getting up for a while...though, that kind of makes this guy better, right?? He's old, he's got experience! He could help us out in the field!"
- Sylina:
- "He's barely interested in lifting a finger to help - you expect him to take on a leadership role?"
- Yin:
- "Hey, you left Mr. Headphones in charge of taking care of our ACTUAL leader."
- Yin:
- "I'm not sure we'll be able to tolerate her once she gets better."
- Sylina:
- "That was BEFORE he let off that... accursed glitter bomb."
- Yin:
- "But AFTER he'd demonstrated that he's kind of an asshole in every imaginable way."
- Hideo:
- Hideo rubs his forehead, "Ugh...what am I getting myself involved in...?"
- Sylina:
- "It's better having him there than on the mission!"
- Yin:
- "Okay, every imaginable way except glitter bombs."
- Porsche:
- "Still, it's your choice in the end. This meeting is nothing more than a last resort on our ends, as we ended up becomign unexpectedly spread thin. All we need is the legend to come back to life, just this once."
- Heng:
- You hear a shout from inside the kitchen, "TELL CHUNKY HER FOOD'S READY!"
- Heng:
- "DO THEY HAVE A TABLE YET?"
- Porsche:
- "Oooooooo! Just hand me it over, I'll sit myself down." Porsche stops being all serious for a moment and prepares to mandhandle foodstufss
- Sylina:
- "We can pool together our resources to get you a payment up front."
- Sylina:
- "...partial payment."
- Sylina:
- "I doubt what we can provide would cover the risks."
- Hideo:
- "...take a seat, this needs to be discussed -away- from the damn doorway of my restaurant..."
- Heng:
- Heng walks out to hand you the plate of food just in time for you to have walked to your table
- Sylina:
- c'est table
- Heng:
- "UUUUGGGGHHHH, do I really have to waitress thi--oh, fine..."
- Heng:
- MT went over here
- Heng:
- for the record
- Sylina:
- oh
- Hideo:
- "Keep up the attitude missy and I'll have you work late." He turns back to the others, "It's not much of a threat to send your employee home early when they live above the place..."
- Sylina:
- I'll just assume there's two chairs per side
- Sylina:
- tho I guess two smols could fit on one
- Porsche:
- how awkward
- Sylina:
- and Porsche just shoves the table up her ass
- Sylina:
- *chair
- Sylina:
- same thing
- Hideo: (( Rude. ))
- Sylina:
- "Well, you have experience dealing with kids. That's a good trait for our group."
- Heng:
- "Oh I'm here until I die, anyway."
- Sylina:
- aren't we all
- Porsche:
- "*OM NOM NOM* Holy SHOOT this is some good eats right there. It's been so long since I've been able to know the joys of something crafted with such skill. I can just savor it till the very last bits...."
- Heng:
- also why would she bother
- Heng:
- there is literally a dildo on the table
- Heng:
- sitting there
- Sylina:
- so there is
- Porsche: (( i cant believe people once had to ring bells to get the waiters attention like filthy animas ))
- Heng: (( a bell, the opposite of a knife ))
- Hideo:
- "I'm just wonder what you lot expect from me? I'm an old man, I'm no sellsword anymore. I've settled down with a wife and this brat of a child here."
- Yin:
- "I'm sixteen...almost! There's a thirteen-year-old charging into the Chitin stronghold right now, you've got no room to complain about your age here."
- Sylina: (( See, that I don't know. IC I've settled for just having you prepare the offering. ))
- Sylina: (( I could, potentially, roll an Intimidate check covering the implications of what'd happen if you didn't help out. ))
- Yin: (( you could also bring up just having him prepare the offering and taking it there ))
- Hideo:
- "Didn't I say to keep a muzzle on her?"
- Hideo:
- "She's not helping your cause any."
- Sylina:
- "...I'll be brief. You understand the situation surrounding the Chitin Clan, right?"
- Yin:
- "...you're one heartless bastard, huh? Well, I'm going. I'll leave it to you two, I guess. Not hungry anyway."
- Hideo:
- "No one's stopping you. Let the adults talk."
- Sylina:
- "We'll meet you back at the airship, alright Yin?"
- Yin:
- "...maybe. I dunno."
- Yin:
- "See ya."
- Sylina:
- "Sorry..." @ Yin as she leaves. "Anyway... the Chitin."
- Sylina:
- god damn it this chair is too big for me I'm just gonna stand
- Porsche:
- "*Om nom nom* Or at least, one specific family of the Chitin is acting a lot more bold than normal..."
- Sylina:
- "They've been getting increasingly aggressive lately. Not a week ago, they launched an attack on the city of Nimae - yes, the impenetrable city. Guess what they managed to do?"
- Sylina:
- "They've kidnapped several victims - including the Low Patron, as mentioned, and at least one of the children from YOUR local abbey. They're going to be experimenting on them - assumedly, grafting parts from monsters onto their bodies, and one can only assume, turning them into a military force."
- Sylina:
- "We've been to the abbey ourselves, and received the training we'll need to stand a chance against the guardian and goddess of the Shinda Shrine - which is where we need your help the most. If you could help to prepare and serve a traditional banquet circa (however many years ago), we'd stand a chance to simply pacify her, something I'm sure your community would herald you as a hero for?"
- Sylina:
- "It's been so long since anyone was able to visit the shrine, after all."
- Hideo:
- Hideo sighs once more, "Look...I don't think I got any of your names, actually..." He clears his throat, "I'm not trying to be a heartless bastard here, which your dense little friend couldn't seem to comprehend. This isn't about the money for me...it's not even about getting a good laugh at that harpy getting the karma that's coming to her. It's that...at the end of the day, I have a family I need to look out for. A family that I don't want worrying whether their husband, their father, is going to come home alive or not."
- Sylina:
- "Sylina. This is Porsche." (Interjecting towards the upper half of that block)
- Hideo:
- "I've lived the sellsword life, hell I nearly died because of it more than once, no thanks to your boss lady Fen. ...I'll help with your damn banquet if only because your determination reminds me of myself when I was younger, er, Sylina."
- Sylina:
- She smiles. "Aw. It's nice to hear that from a younger man."
- Hideo:
- "Eh? Oh, I should've known, your one of those dragon-kin things, aren't ya? Should've known someone was off with those horns.."
- Sylina:
- "Splintered Crown, yes."
- Porsche:
- "*Chew* Well, the meal is certainly a step in the right direction, I'll tell you that. Your food better be even more off-the-chain than this though. While great, I'm sure mad shrine keeping spirits have much higher standards in nourishment."
- Porsche:
- "Really, it's a miracle that Godess Spirits even eat in the first place, so I think they have no right to be picky about it, but what do I know?"
- Heng:
- "Oh, like YOU have any right to complain about what, or how, someone eats."
- Heng:
- "Why am I still here? Not like anyone else is going to cook anything in this place..."
- Porsche:
- "Anyway, as the little one said, name is Porsche, sir. It's great that you could assist us, if only for this little while during these trying times. I'll make sure you make this whole escapade in one piece."
- Sylina:
- I was just about to ask that.
- Heng:
- "So tough, being the only one with a work ethic around here."
- Heng:
- She heads back off to the kitchen to cook up some more dank memes
- Sylina:
- "You shouldn't need to put yourself in harm's way. We already have a fairly large squadron - hopefully enough to handle the guardian."
- Sylina:
- "Although - if you should wish to apply some of those leadership skills I've heard about, we wouldn't object."
- Sylina:
- "Our own leader came down with a sickness of sorts, and is currently recovering..."
- Sylina: (( Sorry to make this an infodump, but it is a -lot- of information to process ))
- Sylina: (( Wanted to make sure that you had a good grasp on it ))
- Hideo:
- Hideo laughs, "Now I'm curious as to what sort of stories you've been told about a washed-up old man."
- Sylina:
- I have been talking completely out of my ass.
- Sylina:
- ...I should probably have to roll guile.
- Yin:
- Eh
- Sylina:
- Or charm.
- Yin:
- I didn't have to roll Intuition to tell he was a heartless bastard
- Sylina:
- tru
- Yin:
- not that I woulda failed,
- Yin:
- 31
- Yin:
- I am an intuitive little bitch
- Sylina:

- max roll let's go
- Hideo: (( Oh, should I roll against that? o3o ))
- Sylina: (( I dunno maybe (waiting) ))
- Hideo: (( So I have expert intuition, what should I roll (HMM) ))
- Sylina:
- "Just that you were always dependable! Your years of experience both on the field and, well, within the restauranteur business would give you a natural talent for leadership."
- Sylina: (( That's 5d6 ))
- Yin: (( charm usually isn't opposed but Focus would likely be the most accurate? ))
- Sylina: (( so that plus your Spirit attribute ))
- Sylina: (( oh sure maybe ))
- Sylina: (( I'd rather like to pass this one ))
- Sylina: (( considering we're trying to get him to join ))
- Hideo: (( Of course it's Focus, I have pathetic focus. ))
- Sylina: (( Ha. ))
- Hideo: (( So yeah, I couldn't beat that even if I wanted to. ))

- Hideo cracks a weak smile, "I know that's a load of shite. But I appreciate you humoring an old man..."
- Sylina:
- "And we'll appreciate whatever help you can offer us."
- Sylina:
- "Again, we promise to keep you out of harm's way so you can return to your family."
- Hideo:
- "Well I guess I can't say no to that, can't prove your annoying little friend right."
- Sylina:
- "That would be the worst case scenario."

- Theron:
