  1. (12:03:14 PM) Kamsya: [It is long, sweaty, exhausting work, trying to transform a Glub-ravaged Alternia into a habitable planet. Or something that could possibly, remotely, resemble such a place. Outrider Dawnclad is grateful he's allowed to let his brain do the heavy-lifting.]
  2. (12:03:49 PM) Rave [[email protected]] entered the room.
  3. (12:04:42 PM) Kamsya: (( repost for Rave's benefit. ))
  4. (12:04:45 PM) Kamsya: (12:03:14 PM) Kamsya: [It is long, sweaty, exhausting work, trying to transform a Glub-ravaged Alternia into a habitable planet. Or something that could possibly, remotely, resemble such a place. Outrider Dawnclad is grateful he's allowed to let his brain do the heavy-lifting.]
  5. (12:05:59 PM) Kamsya: [Still, there is time, for breaks. Or time after a girder falls on the foreman and knocks her unconscious, while everyone mills about doing nothing in particular, until their boss's boss gets back and declares who's in charge now.]
  6. (12:08:17 PM) Kamsya: [>Kamsya: Take advantage of this 'confusion' to sidle off and approach one of the Feral Cleanup crews you've been working with this perigee. There's something about that brownblood with the blunt, triangular, horns.]
  7. (12:13:36 PM) Dorothy: [>Dot: You've been on perimeter watch for most of the perigree- and it has not been as dull as you would have hoped. There was already one attack this morning, before you came on shift, with a bicyclops charging in, only to be taken down by the swift defense of the Feral Cleanup crew before it could do any damage. You're leaning against a post, idly watching the trolls mill about, when you
  8. (12:13:36 PM) Dorothy: spot a brownblood from the infrastructure crew moving towards you.]
  9. (12:14:30 PM) Dorothy: [You don't react much outwardly, though, beyond your eyes tracking his approach, and you continue to fiddle with the marlinspike you've had out all shift.]
  10. (12:21:35 PM) Kamsya: [You'll...wave, and smile. That's not weird or suspicious, definitely, right? "It isn't fair, is it? We're breaking for the nonce, and you're still at vigil."]
  11. (12:22:15 PM) The_Black_Watch [[email protected]] entered the room.
  12. (12:24:43 PM) Dorothy: [Raise an eyebrow. "As much as it would be lovely to take a break," you respond, voice crisp and cool, "unless girders would kindly fall on all the fauna that threaten your workplace, I do not see it happening any time soon." Goodness, but he does look young. You'd almost think too young to be working on such a site.]
  13. (12:30:53 PM) curls left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
  14. (12:31:23 PM) Mnem [[email protected]] entered the room.
  15. (12:32:34 PM) Kamsya: [You smile a little, and your ears flip with amusement. "I might throw a few," you offer, "but I'm fearful they'd start taking the cost of repayment out of the 'paycheck.'"]
  16. (12:36:01 PM) Muss [[email protected]] entered the room.
  17. (12:37:16 PM) Dorothy: [Ah, you remember this one- the psionic. Helped with a hornbeast attack a few nights ago. "Most likely. I think I will survive without the break, however." Your gaze turns back to the landscape, away from the building site. You can't imagine a work-related reason for the troll to be bothering you. Perhaps if you're a touch rude- as much as you /would/ like to have a nice chat with someone-
  18. (12:37:17 PM) Dorothy: he will go away, and you won't have to deal with making friends with doomed nonplayers.]
  19. (12:42:03 PM) Kamsya: [You nod at that. "No, we won't be here for long, will we?"]
  20. (12:43:05 PM) sleepingDove [[email protected]] entered the room.
  21. (12:44:41 PM) Dorothy: [Glance back. Run a quick eye over him, suspicion starting to rise. "The work here would appear far from completed. Unless you're thinking we'll be leaving early?"]
  22. (12:47:17 PM) Kamsya: [There, now she's catching on. "Truth be told, I never expected to keep this role as long as I have. Regrettable as it is, I don't expect the work here to be completed."]
  23. (12:48:59 PM) Mnem is now known as piezoelectricClockwork
  24. (12:49:52 PM) Dorothy: [You smile at who is most likely your coplayer, friendliness moving smoothly across your face. "It's been a rather long pre-session, hasn't it?"]
  25. (12:51:50 PM) piezoelectricClockwork is now known as Mnem
  26. (12:52:01 PM) Kamsya: [You nod, relaxing at her smile, your voice a little less forced. "It has. Do you suppose we're waiting on someone? Or that there is something we're meant to learn here?"]
  27. (12:55:00 PM) Dorothy: ["I wouldn't know- I've been unfortunately too occupied with maintaining my cover to contact any of our other coplayers recently." You look vaguely troubled for a moment, then snap back. "At any rate, I do have my discs already- have you located yours?"]
  28. (12:56:19 PM) sleepingDove is now known as Dove
  29. (12:56:25 PM) Kamsya: ["They arrived as part of a bulk mailing--a 'demo.'"]
  30. (12:57:09 PM) Kamsya: ["It's a very good disguise," you offer. "Might not hold up in a session, but, ah, that's rarely needed, is it? Your body temperature was the tell."]
  31. (12:58:15 PM) Dorothy: [Laugh. "Yes, you did get ahold of me for a moment there, didn't you? I would have gone for a more human-temperature-appropriate disguise- but I am not usually under such scrutiny, and my replayee was a brownblood. But thank you nonetheless."]
  32. (12:59:45 PM) Muss is now known as roamingGloaming
  33. (1:03:20 PM) Kamsya: ["You are welcome, miss...?" Your ears lift inquisitively--Ockzel was right, Nisica was right, why /ever/ did you dock them?]
  34. (1:04:41 PM) Dorothy: [The ears are certainly amusing to you. "Jenkins. Dorothy Jenkins. Dot, if you're the nicknaming sort, but otherwise feel free to call me Dorothy. And yourself?"]
  35. (1:06:39 PM) Kamsya: [You straighten up, and sketch an elegant and courtly bow. How incongruous is it, in dirt-smudged and sweat-stained coveralls? "Outrider Dawnclad, Knight of Light."]
  36. (1:08:22 PM) Dorothy: [Your smile widens, at the bow, and you incline your head in response. "I myself am a native Knight of Heart. A pleasure to meet you, Dawnclad."]
  37. (1:12:19 PM) Kamsya: [He straightens. "It is mine, Dorothy. I've not had the opportunity to meet a fellow player before our entrance. You'll be only the second human I have met."]
  38. (1:14:29 PM) Dorothy: ["Meeting coplayers in pre-session has been a rarity for me- I apologise for my standoffishness, but it does make things simpler if one doesn't make too many nonplayer friends."]
  39. (1:20:07 PM) Kamsya: [Your expression darkens. "It does, at that."]
  40. (1:20:40 PM) Dorothy: ["So!" Moving on from that cheery topic...
  41. (1:20:45 PM) Dorothy: ((augh ))
  42. (1:21:02 PM) Dorothy: ["So!" Moving on from that cheery topic... "How long have you been playing, might I ask?"]
  43. (1:22:14 PM) Bookwyrm [[email protected]] entered the room.
  44. (1:24:44 PM) Kamsya: ["Not long," you admit. "This will be my seventh."]
  45. (1:29:31 PM) Dorothy: ["Not too short a history, however. Aside from animal attacks and your construction work- has the presession been any more trouble than usual?"]
  46. (1:37:41 PM) Kamsya: [You shake your head. "It has not. It has been enlightening, to live the life of-" You pause for a moment, then continue, "of a lowblooded adult."]
  47. (1:39:12 PM) Dorothy: ["You do not look, I must say, like you would have had a taste of such a life, pre-game."]
  48. (1:40:28 PM) Kamsya: ["It could not have become an issue, given when I first began to play."]
  49. (1:45:04 PM) Dorothy: [You nod, and glance back out at the landscape. You are still on guard, after all. As you continue your surveillance- "By the way- are you familiar with the SBURB.org IRC?"]
  50. (1:52:47 PM) Mnem is now known as minecraftMnem
  51. (1:53:49 PM) Kamsya: ["I have a few friends and accquaintances that frequent it."]
  52. (1:55:13 PM) Bookwyrm is now known as tenaciousTheseus
  53. (1:55:53 PM) Dorothy: ["Good to hear. Would you mind passing on to any of your other coplayers that I do have my discs, and can enter at any time? I'm not, unfortunately, able to get online very easily to inform them myself." Your lips purse.]
  54. (1:58:34 PM) roamingGloaming left the room (quit: Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client).
  55. (1:58:39 PM) Kamsya: ["I will. Would I need to know your handle?"]
  56. (1:59:21 PM) Dorothy: ["eresianPoet. I've spoken to... societialFlame already, I believe?"]
  57. (2:06:29 PM) Kamsya: ["Rahose. Yes, I know him."]
  58. (2:07:14 PM) Kamsya: ["I'll pass word along, for others."]
  59. (2:07:25 PM) Dorothy: ["Oh lovely." Smile again. "Thank you very much."]
