Session Start: Fri Sep 22 22:24:46 2006 Session Ident: #lunar-iog2 * Logging #lunar-iog2 to 'logs\#lunar-iog2.log' * TheStoryteller changes topic to '-= Chapter 27: Spark Plug | Location: Geothermal Power Station | Pools: 3361 §, 1 MXP =- http://storen.rpgcafe.net/IoG/' == SESSION START == He's rather quiet and humble actually << Er whoops >> << to the ooc cave! >> * Vytor (DNW@24.7.108.129) Quit (Ping timeout) «ooc: I hope DNW's connection didn't die a horrible death » << it seems to be spooty tonight. >> * Hiro|SRTOG (~Hiro@65-23-201-97.prtc.net) has joined #lunar-iog2 * Amy is now known as Niri * Hiro|SRTOG is now known as Hiro Last time on Illusions of Grandeur! The honorable Elementalor Uranus sought to test the valiant heroes resolve... his brother Mercury at their side! * Niri sizes up their opponent Uranus stands before the dynamos, as they begin to spin and crackle. Steam and electricity mix as the room rumbles with power. * Mikel lets out a siiiigh as he hefts his staff. "Well, it'll be interesting at least." [Uranus] Come then! * DNW (DNW@24.7.108.129) has joined #lunar-iog2 * ChanServ sets mode: +o DNW * DNW is now known as Vytor <> << wubs DNW >> «ooc: You fibber! ;) or lucky bastard! That was one fast drive! » * Saki grits her teeth against the unpleasant washing sensation of an Elementalor's presence, hauling herself up off the wall with a groan. "... come on, then, damn you!" [Mercury] En garde, brother! * Angie pulls back the hammer with her thumb, cocking the pistol. "Why are you people all psycho!?" * Trune shakes his head, "This is madness." >> COMBAT! * Tanan shrugs, an irreverant smile on his face. "Because why not? Nothing's been normal for weeks now so let's just go with it." Yes. >> Vs The Elementalor Uranus! * Vytor reluctantly takes up a combat pose >> Declaration Phase. * Saki immediately launches herself to the forefront; gathering what strands of composure she has, she moves into a familiar stance. >> Uranus begins eminating a shielding force. Uranus also starts summoning rocks in the direction of TRune, Vytor and Saki. * Trune quickly draws a pattern in the air with his athames, the wake a dark purple color. * Angie holds her hands up in an X in front of her face and turns her palms toward her. Telltale wisps of willforce spiral around her feet. * Mikel flicks a finger against the staff, beginning to smirk as bolts of electricty begin to gather at the staff's tip. * Niri concentrates, preparing a spell... * Niri closes her eyes and a light breeze seems to ruffle her hair. * Ryllan closes his eyes, concentrating, "Trune, Niri, pay attention." Er, okay? * Niri pays attention to Uranus' butt! << Er, scratch that. ;) >> «ooc: Awww! I had a great comment too! » << lol >> >> Battle Phase. >> Saki's action. * Saki shifts her footing twice, testing the ground, then readies for attack, brow furrowed. >> Fire Stance! Saki's muscle and dex rise with burning passion, as her defenses weaken! >> Mikel's action. * Mikel raises his staff into the air, bolts of lightning suddenly taking flight from it to surround the back row, though instead of frying them it actually seems to quicken their reaction. "Let's speed things up a bit!" >> Rear row's Reaction up 25%! << recalculating speeds >> >> Angie's action. * Angie sweeps her arms out to her sides, stirring the air. A puff of black wind twists through the air like smoke. A chorus of unintelligible whispers encroaches from the edge of perception, slowly drawing nearer and nearer until the black wind is swirling around Uranus like a snake and the group is surrounded by a claustrophobic wall of noise. * Niri feels energized! "Ooh, tingly!" >> It's difficult to make out individual threads of speech in the whispers, but every slip of words that can be caught is a promise of a deeply unsettling whole, a litany of evils that shakes the faith of the pious. * Niri then grits her teeth and feels profoundly uncomfortable as Angie casts her spell. O_o >> Angies' Universal Antimony ditrubs the flow of the being's power, as Talent is down 25%! << er disrupts >> * Vytor shudders at Angie's efforts * Mikel throws Niri a grin before it fades as Angie puts her own talents to work with a grimace. * Tanan turns to look at Angie. "What was... Huh. That was really creepy! ...do it again?" * Trune frowns and grits his teeth as well, "That was as unpleasant as getting gums scraped." * Angie throws a brief, steely smile to Tanan. She doesn't seem to have gone unaffected by the spell either, but it could just be the heat of battle taking its toll on her. >> Mercury gives Saki a little boost of her own, as the power of the skies surrounds her... Air Soul! Saki is now Air elemental! It seemed kinda like a haunted house or something. Except condensed and boiled and then injected into your face. So to speak. >> Now 413/428 MP. >> Trune's action. Voices in the Night, Whispers from Beyond. Spirits of dark, be a source of power.. Mimir's Well! * Trune holds his athames out to his side, curls of shadowy energy swirling about his body as a spidery string of arcane words slips from his tongue. He then holds his athames outwards, and the shadowy energy draws inwards and then dissapears. I tried it on myself once. It's real unpleasant. >> Trune is enlightened for 50% talent boost. Now 108! << the stars of destiny :) >> >> Vytor's action. * Vytor holds his hammer in front of him and stares at it intensely. It starts to glow red and burst into flickering flames. The fire soon goes out, and the red glow also fades. >> Vytor Forges himself for a epic struggle.. Muscle up 25% [Uranus] Is that enhancement? Allow me to show you how! You really don't have to, thanks anyway! >> URanus gathers up a veritable wall of force that shields him. Mighty Guard! Stamina Up 50%, Willpower up 33%. Unsettling trend >> Niri's action. "Ah bloody..." I'm not happy. [Uranus] If you can break through, I shall call you my master. But until then,... Offense always beats defense! * Niri focuses on Uranus and unleashes her power! Wandering wind, give my anger form! Dance till my foes are swept away in a storm! * Niri pivots on one foot and spins in a circle, her hand upraised. She makes a swirling gesture and snaps her hand forward, pointing at the enemy as a miniature storm kicks up around them. "Whirlwind!" * Niri points a finger at Uranus. "I bet you can't stand for long against the power of POETRY!" * Mikel glances at Niri. "...where did that come from?" * Trune suddenly bursts out laughing despite himself, "That was poetry? Oh goddess! Snrk!" * Ryllan looks at Niri, "What exactly do they feed you, kid? Liquified sugar?" * Niri smiles sweetly and kicks Trune in the shin. * Trune snirks and ows. ;) I wonder if you can rhyme someone to death? "I think she naturally has it." I bet it's possible. Wouldn't you like to know! Let's just say it'd give Saki convulsions. >> The miniature dirt devil glance soff his barrier, but does cause some damage .. weak to Air! 138! >> Ryllan's action. * Ryllan opens his eyes, sending glowing energy sparkling from his gear to Niri and Trune! "'s not much, but it should help some." Thanks! I'll make good use of it! * Mia_Ausa (~Mia_Ausa@pool-72-74-110-216.bstnma.east.verizon.net) has joined #lunar-iog2 >> Ryllan hands off his Hat's powers t Trune and his trusty Force of Will to Niri! >> Tanan's action. * Tanan cups his hands together, a small diamond shape spinning in them. "That wasn't a bad idea, Uranus. I think I can improve on it though." * Tanan closes his hands, and an angular barrier shimmers faintly around Niri for a second before fading away. >> Tanan summons the roulette of chaos, granting a Force Wall upon Nirir! STamina and Will both up by 50% << er Niri >> Hey, thanks! * Niri cracks her knuckles and prepares to make good use of the latest buff! No problem! * Niri nods to both Tanan and Ryllan [Leah] Aww... I'm jealous.. I want some of that too! Steal Trune's hat when he isn't looking, then! ;) Hey! My present! You have your own! "Fight over clothing later." >> Leah tries slapping together a spell.. results in De-Protect on Uranus! Stamina -25%! Ooh, Leah! That was awesome! Can you do that again? I almost swore I could see him deflate! [Leah] Well.. that sort of worked... Helpful * Mikel grins. "Not bad." [Uranus] Hmm... what is that power? I've felt it before. >> Uranus hmmphs and hurls a volley of glowing stones at Trune, Vytor and Saki! Incoming! Oh geez c'mon! I don't want a headache! >> Saki's Earth Crux absorbs some of the blow... along with Air Soul it is nullified completely! Vytor takes 82, Trune takes 62. Trune succumbs to STON for 1 round! * Vytor get clobbered by glowing magic rocks. A first for him. * Trune suddenly stops talking and goes ramrod straight...and doesn't move, his gaze vacant and stony. It's actually kind of eerie. Oh shit Guys ...Grand. Quick, anyone have any chalk? * Niri sniggers. "Tanan, don't be mean!" >> Round 2 * Niri taps Trune's ankle with her foot. "Hey, snap out of it!" * Mikel winces as the clobbering happens, reaching out to gently poke Trune. "Yeah, he's gone." Shiro walks up and paws at statue Trune >.> >> Declaration Phase. * Tanan pats his pockets. "Come on, come on..." * Saki has paid no attention to Uranus' challenge or attack; with the darkness of the caverns and the whirl of wind around her, she's all but invisible in the gloom and then is suddenly /moving/ in a hazy, outright dash. * Niri sighs and decides to go with what works. :P She starts surrounding herself with a soft breeze again... * Vytor rights himself, and prepares to charge Saki! Ho- Oh fuck it. Everyone else, hold back, I'm going to deal with that damn shield. >> Uranus prepares to engage Vytor! More glowing rocks hover, heading for Niri, Angie and Tanan! Oh man... * Mikel spins his staff about once, nodding. "Got it!" With that, lightning begins to crackle along the length, a bit lashing out around Mikel as well as he prepares his next spell. * Tanan looks a little annoyed, giving up his search and raising his shield, stepping near Angie >> Battle Phase. * Angie sways back fluidly, keeping her distance. "I'm OK. I'm made of tougher stuff than I look..." >> Tanan is defending Angie. Mikel delays! Meamwhile, the stony Trune discovers Shiro has left a little golden present on his right pant leg... >> Angie's action. Eh, he's gunning for me too anyway, I'll keep him off you. "...We're going to have to stop Trune from skinning Shiro alive." * Angie sweeps her hands upward, coaxing twin threads of light out of the ground. She bends one leg back and rises up on oe foot, spinning gracefully and drawing the threads about her in a double helix. She comes to a stop pointing at Uranus and thrusts her gun arm forward, pointing the barrel directly at him. The streaks of energy spiral down her arm and around her gun, meeting in front of the barrel and blossoming into a disk of light. For For a split second, everything freezes, and then Angie darts away, slipping into the darkness with a trail of light following her every motion. >> Muscle and Dexup by a nice 25%. Go Lady Gunner! >> Mercury sees the movement of his brother and rushes in first, swinging air encases fists and feet! >> Weak to Air attacks! 80! 76! >> Saki's action. * Saki crashes against the shield of force with abandon: it's tough to pick out individual attacks in the mist around her, but there's enough to see there's no form behind her repeated blows but raw strength, elemental force, and not a little lack of restraint. * Niri blinks at Saki. [Mercury] Take that! "I think she's a bit mad." Just a bit? Sometimes she scares me a little. Just a little? And then she does something like this and she scares me a lot. It's something to do with all the willforce flying around, I think. * Ryllan shrugs, "Just stay clear of her." "That's why I'm back here." >> Hot on the Elementalor's heels, Saki lays into his defenses with a torrent of blows! 53! 52! 48! 40! 46! ...Have to admit it's effective, though. "Very." * Trune just stands there. No, really. * Mikel contemplates tipping Trune over to see if he shatters. << strike >> «ooc: ;_; » * Saki pushes away with the force of the last strike, skidding backwards towards the group; a moment to get her balance then she's off again on another dash. >> The humble storyteller takes that back.... Saki is Air Souled, and thus deals air damage! 106, 104, 96, 80, 92! Uranus staggers slightly under the combined attack. [Uranus] Stronger than my brother, even? Now this is interesting. Yeah, she has the Power of Psycho. >> Trune can't act1 >> Vytor's action. Not quite as cool as the Power of Poetry, but more practical. * Vytor throws his whole body into his strike, aiming for the barrier that protects Uranus, hoping to damage it or perhaps break it down! If I could punch stuff like that... * Mikel glances at Niri. "And like a dozen times more effective?" Just a bit, yeah. ...I'd have a lot less complaints about quizzes I suppose. You know Vy, I'll have that down in just a moment. * Ryllan sighs, "No one /listens/." >> Vytors hammer barely scratches it for 58 damage! "Hey! We're listening!" * Tanan frowns. "Wonder if she'd be interested in a TA position when this is all done..." "...she dislikes willforce. You /want/ her in the Academy?" * Mikel shakes his head. * Vytor falls back, not looking pleased ...well.. >> Uranus uses the momentum to strike at Vytor! But instead of punching the human, h strikes the earth, sending shockwaves through the room. A huge chasm opens up and swallows Vytor! o_O * Vytor vanishes o_O >> Gaia's Maw! 93 damage.. Vytor removed from combat! "...Oi!" ...Great. >> Niri's action. Wha-? O_o Hey!! Not fair! Hax! <<...strike that.>> * Niri growls and decides to take revenge. Wandering wind, give my anger form! Dance till my foes are swept away in a storm! * Niri pivots on one foot and spins in a circle, her hand upraised. She makes a swirling gesture and snaps her hand forward, pointing at the enemy as a miniature storm kicks up around them. "Whirlwind!" * Vytor lands at the bottom of the chasm with a muffled shout * Tanan cups his hands like a megaphone. "Vytor! You ok?" ...I kind of like it down here. Its private. "..." >> Niri tries to put a little more oomph in her aerial attack, getting 168 damage from her newfound brillance. >> Ryllan's action. I'm OK! Just annoyed. * Ryllan reaches out, and three glimmering strings appear around his fingers, leading to Uranus. He considers them for a moment, then murmers, "Some nice spellwork you've got here. Pity just like anything else..." His hand closes, and the strings shatter into a million glimmering motes of light, "It can be broken." * Vytor looks around for a way to climb up, and doesn't have a lot of luck >> Ryllan feels the shadow of a greater mage gripping his mind briefly as the Dispel crushes all effect upon Uranus like dust in the wind. Now, see, if you all had /waited/. That's too much like making sense! >> Mikel can act ! * Mikel whirls his staff about, shaking his head as the rather large amount of electricty that had built up around him gathers into a single point. "For the record, I did!" With that he raps the tip against the ground, sending an blast of lightning arcing towards Uranus. >> 240 damage from the thunderous bolt! >> Leah tries to throw something together for Trune, but no luck! >> Round 3 >> Trune's STON condition wears off! >> Declaration Phase. [Uranus] I'm almost convinced. One more go of it. * Trune suddenly gasps and stumbles forward, looking disoriented, "What the ...fuck was that?" << oops, backup >> << need to secondary action. >> * Vytor can't be seen down in the pit, but the percussive sound of hammer on stone can certainly be heard «ooc: Awww » >> Rockslides head outwards towards Niri, Angie and Tanan! << TGhey should totally redirect and stone Trune again >> «ooc: Nooooo » >> Tanan takes the brunt of them, shielding Angie from harm... 88, 90. Niri's enhanced will blunts the attack down to 36! Unfortunately, her teacher is now STON for 2 rounds! Eep!! * Mikel winces, then considers for a moment. "...I dunno, it looks like an improvement." Uh oh. :( Darn you Uranus! That's fighting dirty, that is. Oh, be nice, Mikel. :P * Tanan stands there in a defensive posture, looking grey. * Mikel waves a hand, grinning. "Aw, come on." >> Uranus now prepares to throw all his might at Mercury! Three more quakes begin in the vecinity of Mercury, Ryllan and Mikel. * Angie takes on a stony cast herself, lethally serious amidst the more swashbuckling combatants. * Trune suddenly gasps and stumbles forward, looking disoriented, "What the ...fuck was that?" <> << scratch that. Tanan took 44 and 45 respectively. >> You were statuified, Trune. Huh...what..? That was...really...Stau..Hey! That's totally being a dick! Discuss later, smash things now, agreed? Grh, fine, got it. * Trune quickly draws a pattern in the air, the wake having a yellowish tinge ...Hey is my leg wet? "Maybe." * Saki rounds for another try, the wind around her swirling as she turns on the spot and takes off again. * Trune looks down, "...Oh for fu--Where's the goddamn dog?! He's so going to get it." * Ryllan grins at Trune, "Let's make it /really/ smash things." * Mikel lifts his staff, lightning beginning to gather around the young mage yet again. "One for the money, two for the show..." * Niri can't help but giggle at Trune. * Ryllan shakes his head, "Scratch that. Saki, don't kill me." >> Battle Phase. * Trune grumbles something about Shiro needing to sleep with one eye open from now on. Shiro whines :( >> Mikel's action. ...Don't do that! Don't act cute! It's making it harder to glare at you you...fluffy thing! * Niri laughs. "Awwww, why would you want to glare at such a cute widdle adorable woogums?" * Mikel whirls his staff about, grinning. "Three to get ready, and four to GO!" With that, another bolt streaks forward, zeroing in on the Elementalor. >> And a certain Elementalor is 238 HP less off. Session Time: Sat Sep 23 00:00:00 2006 Because he peed ON MY LEG. >> Angie delays... "But it was so /cute/." But he...no, no, I'm sorry. I can't argue that, it's just too FUNNY. *Giggles* >> Mercury grins, sensing victory. He grants Saki an Air Soul! Right, I didn't know urination was adorable like kittens. Nah, it's not so much adorable as hilarious. * Angie rises on a swell of air, dancing just a half-inch off the floor. >> Rather Angie is airy. ^^ [Mercury] I already rpoved msyelf once, now it's your turn! Give this stubborn oaf what for! >> Angie can act! (hammering sounds continue) * Angie strides from the shadows and levels the gun at Uranus. The battle surges around the Elementalor, affording few opportunities for an opening. She narrows her eyes, staring past the dance of swords to the figure beyond. An oppening appears -- BLAM, the gun snaps back. Another, and another -- each time a tiny window of opportunity appears, Angie fills it with a lead slug. * Niri blinks, wondering what Vytor's doing down there. * Trune looks around, "What's that-- hey where's Vytor?" Down the rabbit hole. The ground ate him. /Focus/, Trune. >> BLAM! The air enchanted bullets rip into the foe. 76, 82, 88! Well, sorry, but the what at the who? >> Saki's action. "I can show you after the fight." * Niri cheers Angie on. "Go go, fight fight! Shoot that guy with airy might!" * Mikel stares at Niri. What? "I'm honestly not sure." * Saki flits through the intervening space in the blink of an eye; one foot smashes into Uranus' torso before she uses the momentum and swirling wind to launch upwards and crash down upon the Elementalor, a whirl of attacks. * Ryllan grins, "Saki! Don't kill me! This is helping you!" He's looking at you because you're crazy, love. >> Oh and Mercury is at 398 MP * Ryllan sends raw energy towards Saki, Speeding her movements and granting her even more attacks! "Oh dear, 'love'?" Not as crazy as Saki. Also, don't make me bite you. "He might like it." >> Ryllan Magnifies Saki's manuever, as she strikes with rage! * Trune snrks, "Don't read too much into that." >> Saki's attack is supercharged a bit too much, as only 4 blows land. 122, 108, 94, 102! Her flip goes astray, backfiring upon Ryllan for 112 damage! :o * Mikel stares for a moment before he cracks up laughing. * Trune winces. "I don't think she appreciated it." * Ryllan is knocked clear over by Saki's attack, "Dammit! I said /don't/ kill me." >> URanus goes down to a knee briefly, breathing harder now. * Saki is a blaze of motion as she practically rebounds off of Ryllan, skidding to a halt some distance away; with no response or even motion in Ryllan's direction it's not clear she even realised he was there. * Ryllan drags himself up and wipes blood from his mouth. We need to have a talk with Saki later. "You're crazy." >> Trune's action. Highway of the storms, fist between the clouds! Begin your howling dance of destruction! Vortex Wing! * Trune circles his arms wide and outward, then spins them back around and forward with plams facing out. As he does, he creates a whirling vortex of air that explodes forward and slams into his target with concussive force! Woohoo! *Dances* * Niri spins in a circle making whooshing noises. ^_^ >> Trune massive spell rips into him for 458 damage! Is that good enough? Can we be rational now? [Uranus] Hurg... so.. this is the power of the boy you talk to? Ooh. High damage spells are so...sexy! << Okay not really scratch that ;) >> << so many comments. >> [Mercury] Convinced yet of their worthiness? "If he says no I vote we just walk away." [Uranus] ...I capitulate. But one more thing before I do. Hyah! * Angie twitches, snapping her head over to the side for a second. "Oh no. If he wants more killing I'm happy to oblige." * Trune facepalms, "Sore loser!" >> Uranus dash at Mercury like the force of a heavenly body, smashing into him with a huge CRACK O_o H-hey! * Mikel blinks. "What the hell?!" * Trune wideyes, "Stop!" >> Fortunately, Mercury is resistant to earth, but his MP is still halved! * DrWebbly speaks from the ECC in Trune's pocket. "Boys! Boys!" [Mercury] ..hey, knock it off! Now you're just a sore loser. * Ryllan moves to step between the two elementalors before more can occur, "That's enough." * Trune pulls out the ECC quickly, "Hey, listen up, you two!" >> Mercury's Mp is now 199/428 [Uranus] It seems It wasn't a fluke after all. I'll give this match to you and the humans, Brother Mercury. >> VICTORY! (hammering continues. very exciting, let me tell you) * DrWebbly flickers into view as a small blue hologram, waggling his finger. "Over a thousand years old, and you are still fighting? Bad children." >> The party gains 15 MXP! * Mikel pokes Tanan with his staff. "I wish I had something to draw with." * TheStoryteller changes topic to '-= Chapter 27: Spark Plug | Location: Geothermal Power Station | Pools: 3361 §, 16 MXP =- http://storen.rpgcafe.net/IoG/' Vytor finally manages to dig himself out of his little pit. Man, I looked like that? That's sort of scary. That vacant stare and all. "Hey Shiro! C'mere!" Tanan is still a lovely sculpture though! * Angie holsters the gun and kneels down to offer Vytor a hand up. "You OK?" Pleh! >_< Been better * Vytor accepts the help gratefully * Trune pokes at Tanan, "Hey, you alive in there, Professor?" * Saki blinks twice; as the challenge recedes and the tension of the battle fades just a little she seems to come back to her senses; with the elementalors right in front of her, though, she still looks rather like a cornered mongoose and is lurking in a corner. Leah tap taps the Professor's effigy. "Gosh.. did I bring any herbs for this?" Hey Shiro, don't you dare think of pissing on his leg! "We can lug him back, maybe? Might suck if we drop him though." I take it we won? * Angie nearly gets pulled in too, but she manages to hold her ground while hauling Vytor up. She grunts. "Sounds like we summoned the wrong one." More or less. Yeah. Now can we get out of here? Uranus and Mercury pause in their scuffle to regard the hologram. * Niri watches curiously * Vytor looks back down the hole, "Well, if anyone falls down there, there's handholds to climb back up now." * DrWebbly puts his hand on his plasteel hips. "What do you have to say for yourselves?!" Leah, after much digging, finds a few Sunflower Seeds. She hurls them at Tanan, where they immediately take roots and start growing on him. The roots glow and break through the stony shell. Tanan is free! * Mikel snaps his fingers. O_o Uh...weird. That is kind of weird. I like sunflower seeds but didn't know they fixed that. Huh. "The more you know?" * Tanan blinks a couple times, then pats himself. "Huh. That was interesting. And bad. Looks like I missed everything, huh?" It doesn't come up much. Not too much. Tanan smells all earthy, as one of the flowers is still growing on his head. * DrWebbly turns and waves to everyone in the party. "Yoo-hoo guys. Looking good! Except for Trune. Wet yourself?" * Angie does some kind of respect-knuckles thing on Tanan's chest. "Pretty much. Thanks." Yeah. Uranus and Mercury are squabbling, Trune discovered Shiro's present, and uh....hrm. Oh yeah, Trune actually did something useful. * Mikel tilts his head. "Flower Power Professor?" ...No! >_< It was the DOG damn it!@ Leah points and laughs. * Niri snickers Oh. Poor puppy. ... Try not to get any one the ECC [Uranus] Sorry, Doctor. But I had to be sure... * Niri sighs and, still giggling, puts a hand on Trune's shoulder. "You can't win, can you?" [Mercury] ..he started it. * Trune glowers, "No. I am cursed." * Angie exhales heavily and flops back against the wall behind her as if pushed back by the force of her sigh. "You guys are pretty psycho in fights too, you know." * Mikel snickers, grinning at Niri and Trune. "Maybe you'll get some astounding good luck in the future." * Tanan nods to Angie. "No problem. And I smell like sunflowers. I'm not complaining, but.." * DrWebbly turns back to Uranus and Mercury. "I don't care who started it. You are family. And you shouldn't fight. Now, what do you say to each other?" "Everything's gotta balance out." Pssh. Yeah, maybe. * Niri stares at Webbly, Uranus, and Mercury in fascination. * Tanan sniffs at the air * Niri points out the conversation to Trune. "This is so bizarre." [Mercury] Alright, I'm sorry, bro. You're still in as good a shape as ever. Yeah, it is. I never had siblings. Kinda glad I was an only kid, now. * Mikel leans in to whisper to Niri. (w) "Should I tell Tanan he has a flower for a hat?" [Uranus] I think you may have gotten even stronger. Let me hlp defend this new world, then. I'm weary of waiting. * DrWebbly thumbs up. "Come on then, let's get you up here! You can relax and recover whilst trying my newest recipe!" * Vytor dusts himself off and readjusts his helmet (whose light is now quite broken) Recipe? Don't tell Saki. * Niri whispers back to Mikel. "No, let's just wait and see his reaction when he figures it out!" * DrWebbly cocks his head to one side. "Oh. I'm Doctor Webbly, by the way. Do you remember me. The Limey?" * Mikel grins and nods, patting Niri on the shoulder before he looks at Webbly. "What's the new recipe, Doc?" What's your newest recipe, Dr. Webbly? Mercury and URanus join hands and begin concentrating. The elements that make up their bodies begin to discoporate and turn into an energy beam that is transported to the moon before your eyes! [Uranus] Call on me to be your strength sometime... And soon they are gone, as the dynamos rev down to a low hum and the quaking ceases. I suppose this means we head back now. ...Yeah, guess so. * Saki breathes out a shaky breath as the siblings disappear, almost peeling off the wall and slumping slightly. Without the feeling of /pressure/, she's recovering faster. "Please. I need some fresh air. Maybe I can bribe Chrissy to let us take some vehicles for a test drive." No, Mikel. Or the giant man-mech Your privleges have been revoked. I keep /telling/ you. * Vytor eyes Saki a bit, but says nothing Oh, Saki begins to feel a lot better as the enchantments upon her fade away as well. You ok, Saki? * Trune suddenly gets a lost, hopeful look in his eyes, "I totally want that mech." * Mikel grins at Ryllan. "For driving the Destiny." "You can't restrict me from the others~" (m) Is /she/ okay? Oh. It's a herby salad. I call it Tossed Leaves Shimmering in the Spring Onion Dressing. Or, Moon Salad. * Mikel glances at Webbly. "Tossed Leaves... Shimmering..." "...I see." Moon Salad. I should have guessed "I'm detecting a trend." * DrWebbly turns away from the Camera and say "Hey, boys! Give your uncle Webbly a hug!" * Saki stalks back over to the group, apparently back in reality, and gestures vaguely at the walls. "... mm. Just was too much energy around." She blinks around, looking mildly lost and trying to catch up. Next time, try not to hit me, eh Saki? * Tanan frowns, looking at the hologram. "Hey.. Webbly?" You /hurt/. Come on folks, let's go back topside "You flew pretty far, though!" Hey Prof. Nice hat. * Niri sighs and shakes her head at Webbly, giggling. Huh? * Saki blinks twice at Ryllan, not comprehending for a moment. When she finally twigs there's a nasty little smile and a crack of the knuckles, but she says nothing more. * Mikel snaps his fingers. Maybe it should have sunglasses and a guitar. * Tanan reaches up and touches his head gingerly. Is that a flower? ...huh! Interesting. (w) And is is one of those times I'm kind of glad I'm not an elementlor. Cuz....hugs. * Niri starts giggling maniacally at Tanan. * Ryllan just closes his eyes and sighs. * Tanan lowers his hands, leaving it there. "And now I forget what I as going to ask you. Damn. Oh well." * Angie finally notices the flower and blinks twice slowly. She stands up on her tiptoes to get a closer look. Hmm? Something to do with oldtech? * Niri stops giggling enough to grin at Trune. "You don't like hugs? Awww. Prickly antisocial Trune!" Careful. If you pull it maybe your brain will come out. * Mikel cracks up laughing at the combination of flower on Tanan's head, Niri's comment, and Angie's advice. O_o; That's a disturbing thought, Angie. Can't cut my hair anymore? Well...not from robots. * Tanan shakes his head. "I don't know, doctor. I'll try to remember for next time, I guess." You don't like me, Trune? * Vytor shakes his head, and starts herding people back the way they came in Oh it's not that! It's just...well...wouldn't robot hugs be kind of...pokey? * DrWebbly holds up the sad face. It's got coffee stains on it. "Now look what you did, Trune." Maybe I should just shut up now. Hmm. You have a point! Still, he's so...well, his personality is so warm and squishy! Pokey hugs are probably better than no hugs? Well. Not that pokey. But I guess I see your point. Maybe I should wrap myself in cushions? A blanket, maybe. "Pillow Robots." Big and froofy. Then that'd be okay, yeah. I'll remember that if I get a chance to come back down and meet you all. You know what, maybe when we get back home I can make Dr. Webbly some clothes that will fit him! Now, Mercury and Uranus are rather beat up. And Neptunes not really high on energy either. So be careful on what you do if you call for help when you go to California. * Saki casts around the place somewhat aimlessly; with the energy gone, her own restlessness is coming back, and she's pacing in thought. * Trune nods. Neptune's the one we'd want to have help with Mars, too. Oh well, we'll be fine I'm sure. Or charcoal briquettes. Six of one, half dozen of another I'm not sure we're heading down that way just yet anyhow. We've got a lot on our plate. * Ryllan nods. In anycase. Stop standing around! Walk bravely to dinner! You who still have stomachs! And mouths. And squishy organs. * Ryllan pauses, eyeing Saki with a particularly worried look, then frowns, "And I need to get to the Academy soonest." I think I'm gonna walk to a bed. And grub sounds good, yeah. My muscles are stiff and it's probably all Uranus' fault. * Tanan stifles a laugh "Maybe they have a massage robot." Can we go back to the Academy before heading for Cali-whatsit? * Saki blinks up, shaken out of her thoughts. "... and maybe Meribia. ... we need to get our answers." * Trune looks to Niri, "Haven't heard back from your Mom?" * Angie screws her eyes shut and stretches, catlike. "I can't sleep after a fight. I'm all adrenalin-y." Giveit time, you'll peter out fairly fast once the danger's over * Tanan reaches up and plucks the flower, patting his head with his free hand. "No brain leaks." Not yet, no. Hm. Weird. "Give it a day." If I start forgetting where I left my keys we'll know. * Mikel ponders. "My chance to grab the Destiny's keys?" No "Bah." * Tanan looks at the sunflower. "I have absolutely no idea what to do with this. Anybody want it?" Can we, like, leave? I'm not really claustropbobic normally but this place is kind of freaking my shit. "Someday, my driving talents will be appreciated." Yeah, let's go everyone. Leah nods, scooping up Shiro and admonishing him for being mean to Trune But it's so fashionable, Tanan! * Vytor head out, slinging his hammer over his shoulder * Tanan holds it out to Niri. "You can have it, then. Flowers as fashion accessories for guys suggests something I don't really want to get into." That's cute, Trune is concerned about his manhood. * Mikel starts to make his way out as well, yawning. Huh? What? * Saki all but saunters out. She looks a world better without a couple elementalors fighting next to her, and at least more calm than previously; she's navigating past obstacles like it's old hat. «ooc: Oh! Nuke. » ...Trune? There will be a reckoning, Angie. «ooc: I mixed them up. Fuckers. » * Niri snickers. "Fine, maybe I can press it or something." <<...oh. Ha! Nuke mine too then>> «ooc: Hee! I was wondering@ » «ooc: And Angie wouldn't make fun of tanan in the same way so. Darn! » Since it was growing out of your head, maybe it's packed with like...intelligence! * Mikel coughs. "Or just crazy teacher thoughts." Little of column A, little of column B? Most likely! "More of B." As you begin to filter out, you notice the maxe to get in is no longer here. The hallways to the lift is straight, albiet massively buckled from all the earth moving that took place. * Vytor smiles at the return of the light-hearted banter << er maze >> A worm slithers by, but quickly runs away into a tunnel when it sees you coming! Nice to see the death-eating worms are backing off. How do you eat death, exactly? * Saki frowns slowly at the sight of it, watching it disappear off. "... if the Destiny needs time for repairs, we should come back to try to make this place a bit safer." "Maybe you guys just killed its parents?" Leah sticks her tongue out at it. Carefully! With butter and garlic. I don't think worms are much for family, Mikel. Leave the death-eating worms alone. * Angie exhales a nasal whine. "Nnnh. I was planning to be kind of busy topside. I have to talk with Chrissy about some stuff." * Tanan looks at Trune. "So death is a shellfish? That's fantastic. We should get some biscuits or something with it!" "I just want to try to get my hands on one of the new vehicles they've got." Buiscuits of sorrow and loathing! With jam! The elevator shaft is just as you left it, fence cage up and awaiting passengers. There is a fine layer of silt and pebbles that are inside of it. * Vytor herds everyone into the elevator * Saki nods absently. "... mm. At least I know where to go if I get bored of looking at a dozen different shiny bizarre things." She's playing it deadpan. Shiny never gets boring. Ok, I'm lying through my teeth "You can lie?" "My faith in teachers is shattered." * Angie scuffs at the dirt, pushing it through the mesh floor and into the darkness below. Work with willforce long enough, shiny is always boring. * Tanan stares at Mikel. * Mikel keeps his expression dead serious. Angie sifts through to a clean floor. Unfortunately, no little precious nuggets here . * Tanan breaks into a smile. "...yeah, I skipped out on the surgery where they remove the lying part of the brain. Told them I'd had it done. They didn't think I could lie about it." * Angie bursts out laughing. * Niri stares at Tanan. * Mikel grins. * Trune laughs! * Saki frowns down the mesh at the shaft below, lapsing out again just briefly. Now that's more like it There's the sound of sparking somewhere below, as the lever sits locked into the neutral position. Huh. Wonder what that is down there.. Worms. And more equipment At least that's what I saw "Let's go /up/." * Vytor shuts the elevator gate, and snaps the swtich into the up position Saki's right, we should check the place out if the destiny isn't done. * Saki tilts her head at that, then looks down and up the shaft. "... the lift equipment didn't get damaged, did it?" We'll know soon enough See? Willforce lift. _Willforce lift._ Is less permanant. "Just hit the damn switch." * Saki rakes her hair with a hand. "... that might be reassuring if I weren't the last person you could sell willforce to." << Actually, strike >> * Mikel glances at the switch, looks down, then looks back up. "Really need a flight spell." Hmmm. I wonder if the White Dragon Wings could be useful here... There were some people at the Academy working on that, Mikel. Probably still are. it's doable, but it's really hard right now; they were trying to refine the concept. Personally I don't think I'd trust willforce to keep me in the air. "Well, trusting willforce is sorta my job description." Not unless it was mine and it was a lot of it, Angie. * Trune goes quiet for a while, listening to the banter. Er. You know the lift in the academy's main building? * Angie flaps a hand at Tanan. "Don' "The headmaster probably powers that without even thinking about it." * Angie flaps a hand at Tanan. "Don't tell me this." * Tanan scratches his head. "I powered it when we rode it. How is it you people don't know about these things?" Really? *She looks perplexed.* Maybe I just flaked out. Oh well. Does it have like a stop to catch you if you cut the power midway? I know about it. I also know that it's a lot more sophisticated than 'just you' powering it. "Debate the theory later, though." * Mikel looks at Niri. "You have a way to get us out?" Well, obviously it's a prepared device. You can't just make a random rock go up and down. But the people riding it provide the motive force Well, maybe. * Niri eyes the White Dragon Wings. "They were supposed to allow for teleportation once, if the stories are true..." Umm... * Niri shakes them a little, then stares at them, concentrating her will into them to see if anything happens. Do you know how to use them? I'm not real keen on randomly warping around. What if the teleport fails and it teleports half our bodies or something? Well...not as such, no. * Angie takes a step back as Niri begins to concentrate. Meaning no offense, Niri, but 'if the stories are true' is NOT a good reassurance In fact, yeah, I remember Dad using them that way! "Then we become the reason why they don't research warp magic?" No no, it's fine! Seriously, I think I remember how he did it. I can at least get us out of here nice and quick, I think. * Saki checks up the shaft again, then shakes her head. "... mm. Hold on. If this lift is broken, it's going to be a problem for everyone; the miners don't have those. Shouldn't we check whatever's broken down there first?" "How would we get down there?" * Tanan peers at the wings. "They're a relic, but they seem to be potent still..." * Tanan points back towards where the fight with Uranus occured. "There's a hole back there." "If you want to fall down the hole be my guest." Vytor flips the swiotch... it must';ve been trying to shake the dirt out, but the lfit finlly moves upward! * Ryllan looks to Vytor, "Does it lead far enough along that we can use it? We could climb down the lift rope! And by "we" I mean "you." Does what lead far enough along? * Angie stumbles and grabs at the railing when the lift starts to move. * Mikel takes a step back as the lift begins to move. "Finally." Guess we won't get teleported today. ...Thankfully. [Leah] Awww. I was geting all excited. No teleporting today. Awww. We'll try it next time we're almost stuck underground. Well, I'll try it out another time. Hell, I'd like to try it just on general principle. UH and up you go! It's only two floors or so, so the trip is thankfully short and sweet. You're back up at the entrance level to the excavation, the tarp covered walls and overhead string lights leading the way back to the repair and machine shops. << er Up and.. >> Here we go. A few of the workers here wave to you. "Hey, you stopped the tremors?" * Mikel waves back. "Think so!" Yeah, problem solved! [Technician] Don't worry Bernie, I think our hazardous duty pay already went through hehe. * Angie smirks. "We're good." She buffs her nails on the collar of her jacket. "There was a magic guy down there causing a bit of trouble, but he's 'gone to ground' now." * Mikel groans. Angie. * Saki steps onto terra alta with a sigh of muted relief. Angie, man, you were just /waiting/ for that, huh? * Angie looks terribly pleased with herself, but she doesn't stop to savor the moment; she's off at a brisk pace, heading topside. [Technician 2] Yeah, can't complain. But there was this laugh echoing down the corridors from the R&D area... * Vytor sighs * DrWebbly is now known as Huw Wait....laughing? Laugh? "...what?" ... On a scale of 1 to 10, how maniacle was it? "Let's just go look." * Saki doesn't even ask; she's turned and is on her way, entirely too used to this sort of thing. [Technician 1] Think it's that Iron Witch gal again? What...? * Mikel starts moving after Saki. * Hiro (~Hiro@65-23-201-97.prtc.net) Quit (Ping timeout) [Technician] Maniacal? Maybe a 5! * Trune blinks, and then runs after Saki. * Tanan (~Nehn@dynamic-acs-24-239-125-230.zoominternet.net) Quit (Ping timeout) * Vytor wonders if Emiria is getting to involved in her project with the robot C'mon! If there's mad science going on, I want in on it! ...Yeah, probably her. * Etirfk (~Nehn@24.239.125.230) has joined #lunar-iog2 We'd better go look into it. One slightly psycho person starts to hunt down another, as saki retraces their steps to the work and maintenance bays... * Trune sets mode: +o Etirfk The area is not as full with workers as it was before, as all resources and manpower seems to have focused on the hulking mechanical combat suit discovered yesterday. Tolboxes are open, engines are humming.. and what looks like a few handymen are running in the opposite direction, looking a little spooked "That's not a good sign." * Vytor raises an eyebrow * Emiria is leaning over a work-table set in front of the powered suit, digging her hands into a large and mostly disemboweled engine. There's a curiously delighted smile on her face. Another two engines in various states of destruction are on the floor around her, with ruptured pistons, cranks, torn casings and tools littering the ground. * Saki turns to Vytor and Tanan, wide-eyed and panicky. "... quick! Hold them down!" * Saki makes to lunge for Niri. * Etirfk is now known as Tanan * Saki stops short, apparently having been making a joke; still, she regards the suit with a not unimpressed eye. Hell, I'm half-tempted to steal the thing myself. * Trune blinks, and blinks again, "No, me first." * Vytor seems taken completely by surprise at Saki's words and actions, "Guh?" * Mikel peers past Saki before trying to get around her to make his way over. "...hell no, I've got dibs." * Angie wades into the sea of tools and parts, stopping every few steps to look around. "Jeez," she says. Oh no. No, no, no, we are not putting any of you guys in one of those * Emiria rips out a large part of the combustion chamber with a satisfying crunch, turning over to regard Angie. Her eyes flash with manic energy as she takes the rest of the party in, letting the heavy chunk of metal fall to the floor with a loud thunk. "Aheheh, you're back." It stands there quietly, as it's new caretaker hard at work. A few safety cords and such lock it down from being moved at all while under re-construction. Umm...hi. "...yeah. What's up?" * Angie waves at the witch. She lifts her brow, staring at her with wide, enthusiastic eyes. "Hi. We almost got crushed by huge rocks, and then we beat up a magic guy because he wanted us to. How's it going up here?" * Emiria dusts her hands over her worn red jacket. They seem to be slightly dirty, but without marks or cuts, as though the shrapnel around her hadn't made a dent on her skin. "Oh, it's going just fine! He'll be moving soon!" Really? You made that much progress already? * Angie whistles. "You're joking. That was fast!" * Emiria waves disparagingly at the torn engines. "Useless! I'll have to refashion them almost from scratch! But yes, it's so simple!" * Saki frowns up at it; whatever mood of relief she was in for being out of the caves has apparently lifted what with the whole /new/ worry in front of her. "... it's very... enthusiastic." * Emiria grins at Angie. "Eheheh, yes. So how were your rocks?" "Painful." * Tanan peers closely at what Emiria is working on, clearly lost. Cavernous I'm sad to hear it! If only I'd gotten here sooner, you could have taken him down and given that thing a good pounding! That would have been sweet. * Mikel glances at the mech. "...a bit bit, I think." Well, there's a bunch left, and statistically speaking they have a very high chance of all being crazy. In the distance a few professionals are cleaning dirt and corrosion from the multi barrel arm cannon. It's more involved than one might think. Up top, there's also a few wires sticking out from the "head", connected to a terminal that a technician is typing on, running what are likely diagnostic subroutines. * Emiria rubs her face, smearing some oil on her forehead. "What, the rocks? Crazy rocks?" No, no! Magic guys. Except one is a girl, I think. "No, not crazy rocks.... I'm not explaining this. Angie, you do it." * Angie nods, inwardly satisfied with her own explanation. The Elementlors, she means. Really powerful humanesque superweapons. No, the crazy elemental people. They're pretty much four for four on being nuts so far. Good people otherwise though * Emiria eyes Trune with a smile. "Humanoid superweapons? Heh, I'd be careful if I were you..." * Saki scratches at a temple, trying to ignore that particular warning and it's applicability. Never trust a weapon that can think for itself. You never know who it's gonna turn against when it needs to be fired... * Angie withholds a response, instead watching Trune to see how he reacts. * Mikel slowly wanders off to poke and examine various parts scattered about. * Trune is taken back a bit, "I..don't doubt their power....but they seem to be okay people. Just a little unhiged. I don't think they'd do that." In the end a weapon that can think for itself is no different than one that can't in the hands of someone with similar goals. * Emiria laughs. "Just like a dumb weapon on a normal, crazy person then? Oh well." Well, the results would probably be the asame "So, you said you'd have this thing moving soon? In like, days or weeks?" * Emiria nods at Vytor with a satisfied smile. Hrmph. I don't think it's fair to condemn them just because they're weapons. * Trune looks at Tanan, "I agree." How soon? As soon as I get designs down on paper and the resources to build the thing with... honestly, that's just up to what Chrissy sends my way. Can we condemn them because they all try to kill us? Would that be OK? * Saki , after a brief battle to try to figure out the technology behind it, appears to be on the losing end; lost and not a little confused at the thing, she settles for mild skepticism. Maybe we can condemn them if they try to kill us an succeed * Tanan appears to consider that for a moment, then nods at Angie. "Yeah, that's completely kosher." If they're 'superweapons', it could be like a bit too late to be sorry if they do turn on you, huh? They already /have/. They won't turn on us. * Trune blinks at Ryllan, "Well, okay, they kind of are unfriendly at the beginning, but they're not so bad later on!" * Ryllan nods, "But we dealt with it when they did." * Emiria eyes Ryllan. After a moment, she smiles brightly. "Hey, weren't you the one I was arguing with back in New Takkar?" ...Maybe? We were a little busy if you remember. [Leah] If they did, there is that cntrol thingy isn't there? * Mikel picks up a random piece and looks it over, hming. I think its more that they're not going to answer to just 'anyone' anymore. They want to test us first. Well some have at least. Others were broken and nuts until they got fixed up I guess I'd be kind of pissy if I'd been locked in a room for 3000 years too, but for crying out loud. So you fight them for the right to command, huh? AS you chat a small hovering insectoid robot Vytor identifies as a Gamma Sentry model makes its way over. With that much time in solitude and on your own, I guess you could get a little crazy and lost. That seems to be their interpretation. "I think its a bit more complicated than that." * Emiria leans back against the table thoughtfully. "I'd like to get my hands on one of them and see what they're like on the inside..." * Vytor watches the drone with some curiosity "...they are people too." * Trune 's face hardens, "I wouldn't. They're people." "Why does everyone keep forgetting that?" [Gamma Sentry] *beep beep* Searching.. Vytor Dunbar... Oh, like they're not robots? I can understand that, though. I mean, if you're of the mindset that you're going to be working for someone, might as well test them. "Definitetly not robots." Over here. *waves to the Sentry* The bot immediately locks onto Vytor and zooms up to him on silver-alloyed wings. * Emiria waves at the sentry. "Ah, when you said humanoids, I figured it'd just be something like an advanced drone model. Pity." Well, they aren't quite human, but in a way they are. It's...weird. * Angie tilts her head, looking a tough embarrassed. "I can sorta understand the desire. Not that I know much about bio anyway. But I guess that's the difference between science and mad science." * Saki eyes the sentry with visible trepidation, just... staying out of the thing's way. * Mikel picks up another piece, examining it. "You've really got an interest in robots and such, don't you?" * Niri stands off to one side, fiddling with the White Dragon Wings. She doesn't have quite as much of an interest in robots, apparently. Also, she's petting Shiro absent-mindedly. [Gamma Sentry] Message from CEO. Wanted in presentation hall at 10 tomorrow morning. Rooms until then are on upper 4th floor, with company domiciles. All food presented free in kind, shopping gift cards included. * Angie drops to a crouch. The back of her coat flaps up and takes a second to settle back down, dragging along the floor. Angie picks up a box covered in wires and turns it over in her hand. "This stuff was never really my area, but it's totally killer awesome. I could probably get used to this." Robots in particular? They're like... the ultimate expression of creating. Something that's almost -alive-, but made with metal and by human hands. They're a masterpiece. Oh, that was nice of Chrissy. Could you tell her thank-you, from all of us? Mmm [Gamme Sentry] ...response has been logged. Do you acknowledge receipt of of message? Y/N? Ooh, gift cards. Uh...Y....N? Er Y! Yeah! Yes, message aknowledged * Mikel glances at Emiria, blinking a couple of times. "I see..." [Gamma Sentry] *click click* Have a ncie day. I already bought that big gun thing. I wonder if I can still get money back with the card? They didn't give me a receipt or anything. * Emiria eyes the robot. "Huh. Well, you all look beat. You'll probably want to get some rest before this presentation, eh?" * Emiria turns, interested. "Big gun thing?" Some rest would be good, yes. The metallic wasp runs off to it's next chore, beeping at a comrade who is helping lift tools up to workers above the mecha. I left it around here somewhere. *She shrugs casually.* Don't get too excited, though; it doesn't actually work as such. On the upside, it was super cheap. Rest'd be good. * Angie picks her way through the machinery until she finds the bazooka tube, right where she left it. She takes the opportunity to take her fur bat off the wall hook and sling the hard hat in its place. * Mikel carefully sets the current piece he's looking at down. "Maybe some rest will be good. I /will/ get to drive around one of the new vehicles before we leave though." Yeah, my muscles are still stiff. And don't start about robot massagers. Robot...massagers? I dunno, someone brought it up down there and the thought is kind of bizzare. Weird. I could do without that. But a real massage, that's another story! You know what, I need a shower. And some food. They said upper level, right? Shior arfs at the mention of food. :D << er shiro >> See? Shiro has the right idea! * Emiria sits down and looks at the party, drumming her fingers meditatively on a broken piston. If you guys want to recover, we've been given rooms on the 4th floor "Sweet." Residential area, yellow sector. Sounds good to me. Anyone else coming along? I'm game. "DItto that." Sure. I'll probably get lost if I don't anyway. ...do they MAKE robot massagers? * Saki nods silently, falling into step. "We can ask?" That'd be great. Except that it'd probably mess up and rip out a shoulderblade, but hey. Ah, those are kinda swanky. Chrissy must like you. The view out a window of the bay shows that the sun has already set on another productive day. Artifical lights spring to life outside, and the night crew begins to rotate in. Come on, I'll show you all the way. Thanks Vy. * Vytor starts moving people towards the elevators * Emiria waves, and turns back to the engine. She shreds another metal part with no more apparent effort than if it were paper, then takes out a part and looks at it critically. * Vytor waves back at Emiria * Trune stops for a moment, waves back to Emiria, and continues on. * Tanan shrugs to himself, and follows Vytor Vytor once again plays tour guide as the group takes a well deserved rest. Suspense building, what could await them as the new day dawns? The limitless potential of the craftsman is about to be unlocked... == SESSION END == * TheStoryteller sets mode: -m Tah dah! Yay! * Vytor is now known as DNW That was fun. ^_^ * Mikel is now known as Zack @_@ >> 4 XP! Yay :D
