Start of #lunar-iog2 buffer: Mon Sep 03 01:39:12 2007 >> Lude! Ready! Set! Go! >> Sometime after his chat with Niri, the boredom of being cooped up in the cabin gets the best of Mikel. This in turn leads to the adept grabbing his jacket and staff and hauling himself up onto the ship's deck, looking about as the crew go about doing their own thing. * Trune is sitting against a crook of the ship's side, reading a large book of some sort. Occasionally he'll stop reading and make a couple of scribbles on a piece of paper. * Mikel gets a bit of a grin on his face as he spots Trune, making his way over and carefully leaning over him to get a look at the book. "You know, keep that up they might want you to start teaching at the academy or something." Huh? Oh. Nah, scribbling in books doesn't always mean you're smart, you know. I had a friend who would do that to make himself look smart -- If you looked closer you'd see he was writing a grocery list. Seriously though, you okay? That was some crazy shit you pulled earlier. * Mikel makes a face, taking a seat on the deck with a groan. "Like I said to Niri, still in one piece and not going insane. Also I'm willing to bet you aren't making grocery lists." Heh, no I'm not. But I swear...I've been pouring over these books and staying up late at night trying to figure this shit out and I've gotten nowhere. I might as well be writing grocery lists. It's more productive at this rate. * Mikel raises an eyebrow. "What in particular? We have a little collection of mysteries on our plate right now." * Trune sighs, closing the book, "About the Elementlors...the Prophetess...Zophar..." Trune pauses for a moment, "And me, I guess." You? Yeah. I mean..why me I guess? How come I can hear and feel the elementalors? What does it mean, anyway? There's no one to really ask and no where to really look for the answer. I hate that. * Mikel mulls for a moment, leaning back. "Before all of this I'd put it down to coincidence. Now, though... I guess Webbly and the Elementalors haven't been able to say why either?" So far no, though to be honest I haven't really sat them down and had tea to discuss it. Things have been nuts. And somehow...I get the impression they'd be horribly evasive. I hope I'm wrong on that one. * Mikel shrugs, a grin appearing again. "Worth a shot. Maybe Pluto or Venus will be more open about it. They seem to like you and all." * Trune grins and snaps his fingers, "Man, one minute, thirty seconds! You lasted longer than I thought you did." «ooc: er, thought you would, even » << Heehee >> * Mikel closes his eyes. "The humor's a bit lacking at the moment. I'll make up for it later, promise. Although, I'm also serious about that. If you're worried about 'em being evasive, they might actually give you a better answer." Yeah, maybe. * Mikel smirks. "Although I think I can believe your denials about being interested in 'em, as fun as it is to make fun of the whole thing." * Trune puts his books away in his bag and chuckles, "And eventually we're gonna find Saturn, too. Who happens to be female. I'm so screwed." Only if she takes a liking to you as well. Feh, like that matters with this group? She's female and that's enough. * Mikel shrugs. "We don't joke about Mars nearly as much, do we?" Granted I really wouldn't wish that on anyone. Least the foreplay would be...intresting? And painful! Oh man the pain. * Mikel reaches up and smacks his forehead with his hand. "Keep that stuff to yourself, man. I'm supposed to be recovering, not getting more mental trauma." Well you did bring her up. It's not my fault! * Mikel shakes his head. "I didn't... oh forget it. Anyways, I do have a question for you. Curiosity and all." Oh? What's up? * Mikel grins a bit. "Niri. You're sweet on her or something, aren't you?" * Trune suddenly starts and nearly drops the bag he was holding, "What? What the fuck, are you serious?!" * Mikel rolls his eyes. "Hasn't been long enough to make up for lacking a sense of humor for a bit there. But yes, seriously! You drop the whole porcupine deal when it comes to her." * Trune looks rather amused, and perhaps a bit...nervous, "No, seriously. You've got the wrong impression! I mean...c'mon. She's Niri for cryin' out loud!" * Mikel closes his eyes, grinning as he props his hands up behind his head. "Of course, of course." Agh, stop it! Seriously! She's loud and annoying and she runs headlong into crap. I'm sure she's mental! Did I mention she's loud? And bouncy? She's totally too bouncy. It's not natural. * Trune looks a bit more flustered, "When I talk about bouncy I don't mean her tits!" * Mikel ...opens his eyes and stares at Trune for a bit before he starts howling with laughter. Man... ahahaha.. I didn't even... hahaha /think/ about that until you said it... haha Agh, seriously, shut up! * Mikel shakes his head, grinning as he finally gets himself under control. "And now I know how to get you when you start about Emili, now. Excellent." Don't you dare say anything, especially when it's not true! I'll seriously kick your ass! I mean it! * Mikel waves a hand. "The two of me could totally take you. I'm not gonna say anything, either way. You haven't blabbed to everyone about Emili, so." * Trune sighs and runs a hand through his hair, "Yeah...just don't, okay?" * Mikel nods. "Don't worry about it. Your reaction was /priceless/, though." Heh. Regular clown, I am. We can buy you a clown suit if you want. With one of those rubber noses that squeaks? Isn't a clown suit without that, so yes. You can put a little show on for Pluto and all that. I have a feeling she wouldn't be a good audience. No one should be subjected to the horror of a clown. Except your worst enemy, of course. Think Zophar likes clowns? * Mikel smirks, starting to get to his feet. "Niri's gonna poke his eyes out anyways. It fits after biting the Prophetess's ankles. And slapping Emili apparently." Yeah you know what I said about her being me---wait she SLAPPED Emili? When? Uhm. After you got clobbered. I missed this? I MISSED this? Augh! Crap! Yes, yes you did. Serves you right for calling her 'babe' and 'hun' and all that, too. Well...nrgh. Okay, you win there. * Mikel takes a small bow. "A good match." * Trune mock bows in return, "Yeah, for you obviously." Well of course. I might come looking for you later, though. Niri wants to help me try to make that spell less... uh, painful for starters, and we're probably gonna need all the help we can manage there. That'd probably be a good idea. Sure, come find me later. I'll probably still be here. * Mikel nods, starting to head back towards the way belowdecks. "In the meantime, I'm going to practice that whole sleeping like the dead thing. Later, Trune." Later! >> Luuuuude.... EEEND! End of #lunar-iog2 buffer Mon Sep 03 01:39:12 2007
