<GMStoren> ~~ INTERLUDE START ~~
<Niki> «ooc: *hides behind her invisible wall waiting* »
<GMStoren> Ah yes, the joys of relaxing after a job well done. Forgetting ehr troubles in the thrill of the moment, Rachel tears up the dance floor at the lcoal club... ^^
<Cody> «ooc: ^^ Heheh. »
<Ashton> «ooc: ~Aye yai yai, I'm your little butterfly..~ »
*** Squirrel_Jammies_Mia (mia_ausa@ZiRC-22467.CMB2.splitrock.net) has joined #pureland
<GMStoren> « lol.. hi Mia ^^ »
<Rachel> <<We go? >>
<GMStoren> Her energy starting to wane, she doesn't at first notice Cody picking his way through the crowd to her.
<GMStoren> « sure go ahead :) »
<Cody> «ooc: Rachel lapdances on a random person. Cody gets insecure and runs away! ;_; »
* Rachel sways to the throbbing beat, arms stretching above her head and her eyes closed.. ^^
<Niki> «ooc: Lets have someone notice Cody taking the drum and yell out "THIEF!" »
<Cody> «ooc: Hello, THIEF! How are you today, THIEF. Cody: My name is Cody! Person: THIEF! :D »
* Cody attempts to push his way through the throng of writhing bodies, and calls out Rachel's name ^^;
* Rachel opens her eyes and drops her arms to her side, blinking a bit...she laughs and reaches out, tugging Cody close against her! "C'mere!"
<GMStoren> « lol »
<Cody> Gah-! ^^:
<Cody> Well, uh...Hi? ^^;
* Rachel takes Cody's hands and puts them on her slender hips, grinning slyly. "Hi there."
<Niki> «ooc: <Rachel> Strip boy! *Cody deflates »
* Cody blinks and blushes at Rachel's action, "Erm. ^^; Enjoying yourself?"
<Cody> «ooc: so wrong ;) »
* Rachel winks and gets even closer to Cody, dancing against him slowly in time with the beat, her nose almost touching his. "Mmmmhhmmm..."
<GMStoren> « this is funny having to reverse direction back to happy ^^ »
<Niki> «ooc: <Rachel> Mmm... <Cody> What? <Rachel> ZESTY! *pulls out a taco and munches on it* »
* Cody attempts to dance with her, looking a bit bashful, "I....can't really dance...ah..."
* Rachel laughs softly and runs a hand through Cody's hair, dragging it lightly down his back and pushing him closer to her. She begins to dance in a most enticing manner. "Just let yourself go, stud! Feel the music...feel....me."
<Cody> Ah...er...okay... ^^;
<GMStoren> « Hmm, makes you wodner who's really luding here. ^^; »
<Ashton> «ooc: <Cody> Uh...uhm...er...okay! *squeeze* »
<Rachel> <<Sorry. ;) I'm about to get to the point, don't worry. ;)>>
* Cody tries to get in the groove of hte music, letting himself go. ^^;
* Rachel smiles brightly at Cody and tones her movements down slightly to match his...she kisses the tip of his nose as they move before drawing back to gaze at him, face flushed. "So...what'd you want?"
<Cody> Well...I sorta came to ask you a question...but...
<Niki> «ooc: <Cody> Sex! Er...I mean! GAAH *deflates* »
<Cody> I don't really want to bother you if you're having a good time here. ^_-
<Rachel> <<LOL>>
<Rachel> It only got good when you came here, stud.. ^_-
* Cody blushes a bit and gently kisses the tip of her nose, pulling her a bit closer to him ^^;
<Niki> «ooc: I was right! :O »
<GMStoren> « lol... oh gosh. ^^ »
<Cody> «ooc: He's not going to steal it, god dammit! »
* Rachel brushes her hand through Cody's hair again and nuzzles her face into his neck before whispering into his ear. "So...you gonna fess up or do I have to request a faster song?" ;)
<Niki> «ooc: Not steal. I was right about the "<Cody> Sex!..." »
<Cody> ^^; No...No I'll tell you. *hmms and wonders how he can ask her this* Can I...possibly borrow the Flammie Drum for a bit?
<Niki> «ooc: Say no. :D »
* Rachel doesn't falter in her moves but draws back to gaze curiously at Cody. "Why?"
<Niki> «ooc: <Rachel> No. <Cody> Umm...okay. ^^; <GMStoren> --Interlude End!-- »
<Cody> ...I was going to follow Niki...patch things up a bit...I feel bad about everything and I just...-_-;
<Niki> «ooc: Aww, I thought Cody was gonna lie to Rachel. Damn. »
<Rachel> Hmm.......just you?.....
<Cody> Just want to at least let her know not everyone is against her, you know?
* Rachel runs a hand down Cody's chest, nodding faintly. "Yeah. Sure, I guess. Just don't fly into Vandole or something, hmm?"
<Cody> I don't plan on it ^^;
<Cody> And I'll be back in record time, so we can go into the Light Palace when it's dark.
<Niki> «ooc: Everyone should run out to see Cody leaving and get all pissed and flustered at him. :D Of course Rachel could calm them down. »
* Rachel grins and draws back, stepping free from Cody to rummage in her pack...she holds up the drum to him teasingly, waggling it with a smile.
<Rachel> What do I get in return? ;)
<Niki> «ooc: Give her some weed. :o »
* Cody waggles his finger and winks, "Well...will this suffice? ^_-"
* Cody leans over and kisses her on the lips softly. :)
<Niki> «ooc: Rachel should bounce around the room like Daffy Duck now. ;D »
* Rachel stops moving down and tangles a hand in his soft hair, returning the kiss just as softly....she draws back after a moment, blushing even noticably in the dim lights.
<Rachel> Mmm. I suppose...for now. ^_-
* Rachel hands Cody the drum. ^^
* Cody takes it and bows, "Thank you, M'lady. ^^"
<Rachel> Not a problem, stud....be careful, hmm? ;) 
<Cody> I will. :) I'll meet up with you later.
* Cody waves to her and tries to get through the massive sea of bodies yet again, getting mooshed in the process. ^^;
* Rachel starts to sway again, the blush fading as the same sly grin works its way across her lips.. "Alright...I'll see ya then, loverboy...thanks for the dance...!"
* Rachel goes back to dancing, a bigger grin on her lips.. ^^
<Cody> (Far off) No problem....Ow! ^^;
<Rachel> <<LOL.....ow.. ;)>>
* Cody manages to find his way outside, and looks for a nice square or clearing he can call Flammie from.

* Cody walks towards the park, and pokes gently at his shoulder, "Joch? You awake in there? ^^"
<Niki> «ooc: <Joch> Wazzup! »
<GMStoren> Cody's poncho seems to have a little moving lump for a second, and a little chocbo sticks his ehad out quizzically. ^^
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kweh? Kweh!
<Cody> Hey Joch...^^; We're gonna go flying again...
* Cody looks a bit gulity, seeing that Joch hates to fly. ^6;
<Cody> «ooc: er ^^; »
<GMStoren> He shakes a bit. "Kweh?"
<Cody> Hey...don't be scared! One of these days you're gonna fly too! 
<Cody> Besides, I got a hold of you...you won't fall. :)
<GMStoren> Joch runs back into the garment, leting go a muffled wark. ^^
<Niki> «ooc: wark? :o »
<Niki> «ooc: Bilingual Chocobo. :D »
* Cody shakes his head, "^^ Man, I've never seen a chocobo that's afraid of heights."
<GMStoren> « I wark occasionally ^^ »
<Heather> <<....>>
* Cody finds a clearing and pulls out the drum!
<Cody> «ooc: ...Storen ;) THAT IS SO WRONG »
<GMStoren> « Is not! »
<GMStoren> Cody produces the Flammie drum with fanfare! Okay, not really.

<Heather> <<I can see our dance scene has set the mindset for this night ;)>>
<Ashton> «ooc: Yay heather »
<Ashton> «ooc: ;P »
<GMStoren> Spinning the little drum, it's not long before the sound carries on the wind, and a huge white winged dragon comes barrelling out of the blue sky!
<Niki> «ooc: Quote #75 <GMStoren> « I wark occasionally ^^ » <Cody> «ooc: ...Storen ;) THAT IS SO WRONG » <GMStoren> « Is not! » * Cody bangs on the drum! »
<Niki> «ooc: Er...forgot the line by Storen. ^^; »
<Cody> Hey Flammie...
<GMStoren> It lands in the park, several people nearly jumping out of their seats. o_O
<Niki> «ooc: >> Flammie flies past and unloads on Cody's head. :o »
<Cody> «ooc: Uh. No. ^^; »
<GMStoren> [[Flammie]] Rorwr ^_^
<Niki> «ooc: heh. »
<GMStoren> « whoops »

<GMStoren> Flammie nods, knowing what Cody means
<Niki> «ooc: Flammie goes to visit the Mantango King! <Cody> NOT THAT FRIEND! »
<Cody> Great....then let's go! ^^
<GMStoren> Flammie stretches out ehr four wings and takes off into the azure yonder. She veers off towards the southeast, and flaps at a leisurely pace to the remains of the Lost Continent...
<GMStoren> « may I stop there briefly? »

<Niki> No, lets lest Cody instead. ;)
<GMStoren> ~ RESUME ~
*** GMStoren changes topic to '-=- Chapter 24.1: The Orphan of Storm | Loc: Grand Palace | Time: Salamando's Day,  Afternoon | 139 Luc -=-'
<GMStoren> It's not long before Flammie soon touches down on the swampy jungle island where the Grand Palace rests.
<Niki> «ooc: >> Iffishes nibble on Cody, then eat him alive. ~Interlude End~ »
* Cody patpats Flammie gently on the back, "Do you mind waiting for me Flammie? I shouldn't be too long..."
<GMStoren> The trees sway in a sea breeze, and ruffle Flammie's fur as she nods. ^^ She looks a little apprehensive though, considering what the Shadow did the last time.
* Cody hops down her back and pokes gently at his shawl again, "Ride's over, Joch. You can come out now. :)"
<GMStoren> Joch pokes his head out, looking around.
<Cody> Ready Joch? You wanna help me find Niki?
<Cody> «ooc: Heh. Cody knew to take Joch cuz Niki liked Joch. Hehehe. »
<GMStoren> [Joch] *nods* kwehh! kweh kweh!
* Cody chuckles, "^^Kweh. Let's go."
* Cody heads inside the palace!
<Niki> «ooc: Cody fights a National Scar all by himself. :o »
<GMStoren> Joch actually hops out of his hiding place and toddles along, pecking the big doors once or twice. Cody's pendant shimmers a moment, and they yield to him, opening wide.
* Cody blinks, and grasps his pendant in his hands, "I've never seen it do that..."
<Niki> «ooc: That glowing pendant will now teleport you to 600AD. ;) »
<Cody> «ooc: Fucking dreamstone ;) »
<GMStoren> « It's just saying "Lookat me, I'm the gemma. :D" »
* Cody tentively heads inside, knowing that the place was filled with creatures last time he was there. ^^;
<GMStoren> The foyer is oddly quiet, though the sound of rustling can be heard. ^^
* Cody blinks, and heads towards the sound of the rustling, making sure that Joch is nearby ^^
<Niki> «ooc: >> Cody finds a few dead corpses, slashed to bits. Within the scars are traces of gold. :D »
<GMStoren> There's no more fancy garlands, or other decorations apparent as you proceed.. just the standard Palace decor. The rustlign nosie is hard to pinpoint.. it could be many things lurking beyond his sight, or just the wind.
<GMStoren> Joch keep lookign around with big chocobo eyes.
<Niki> «ooc: Its a Master Ninja! Those things cheat. ;) »
* Cody looks down at Joch, sighing, "^^; I'd call for Niki by name but I doubt she's going to show up."
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kwehhhhh....

<GMStoren> « they yuou go :) »
* Cody picks Joch up in his hands, nuzzling him as he walks onwards, trying to figure out where the rustling is coming from.
<GMStoren> Joch pecks at a patch of grass on the floor and moevs ahead, like he's onto something.
<Cody> «ooc: er, nuke that ^^ »
<Cody> ...Joch? 
<GMStoren> « ack.. :) »
* Cody follows him curiously.
<Niki> «ooc: Its one of the stoners! They're smoking behind the bushes. :o »
<Cody> «ooc: That'd be funny ^^ »
<GMStoren> Joch flutters a tiny wing. "Kweh!" He runs oevr and swerves right and hits into a wall. o_O
<Cody> O_o Whoa!
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kweh x_x
<Niki> «ooc: Bwah. »
<Niki> «ooc: Joch dies! »
<Cody> «ooc: LOL So did the wall just appear because he pecked or did Joch just hit a wall for shits and giggles? ^^ »
<GMStoren> The chocbo gets up, and starts pecking at the wall. "Kweh.. kweh...."
<Cody> Hmm...did you find something...
* Cody starts to inspect the wall.
<GMStoren> The stairs aren't far away... but nothing seems out of the ordinary where he's pecking. But there is that rustling sound again. ^^
<Niki> «ooc: <Joch> No, I'm pecking the wall for as you say it..."shits and giggles." Kweh. :P »
<GMStoren> Joch looks sad.
<Cody> Joch...:/
* Cody patpats his head, and checks the wall one more time for any switches or buttons (hey, you never know.)
<GMStoren> There's no buttons or switches. The way the tiles are arranged suggests there might have been a door frame here once. But it could just be a decorative pattern. ^^
<Cody> Hmm...
<Cody> Something tells me there's a switch somewhere...let's head downstairs for now, eh? ^^
<Niki> «ooc: Have a ghostly finger write "Hi Cody" in blood on that wall. :D »
<Cody> Unless...
* Cody looks back to the patch of grass Joch was nibbling.
<GMStoren> Joch does a lopsided hop-flutter movement and lands on Cody, nearly losing his balance. ^^
<GMStoren> The patch of grass looks pretty fresh actually. :)
<Niki> «ooc: <Stoner> Uhh..what da ya want. Wanna light up a joint with me bro. »
* Cody grins and picks up Joch in his hands, and touches the patch of grass, figuring if THIS doesn't work THEN he goes downstairs.
<GMStoren> It's normal soft grass. You can tell it probably grew only recently, like a day ago at most
<Cody> Odd...
<GMStoren> A soft giggle seems to float on the air as you head for the stairs. ^^
* Cody heads downstairs.
<Cody> «ooc: or upstairs ^^ »
<Cody> «ooc: or sidestairs....backwardsstairs? »
<GMStoren> « lol »
<GMStoren> « up up :) »
<Niki> «ooc: Have Cody see the enterance again. :D »
* Cody blinks at the giggle, "Who's there?"
<GMStoren> As he reaches the landing, the laughter subsides. This floor seems very deserted as well, but there is still that rustling from somwhere. ^^
<Cody> «ooc: Niki's invisible, isn't she? »
<Cody> «ooc: YOU SUCK NIKI »
<Cody> «ooc: ;) »
<Cody> «ooc: Is there any stairs? »
<Niki> «ooc: LOL. »
<Cody> Joch...can you see something I can't?
<GMStoren> Joch looks around the room, kwehing softly again.

*** Happybutt is now known as Cody
<Cody> Well, I guess we keep heading up...
* Cody sighs, and looks around the room one more time.
<GMStoren> Cody doesn't spot anything, except a few leaves laying on the ground.
<GMStoren> They look like they just fell from whatever they originated from. ^^
* Cody shakes his head and heads up the stairs (if there are any. ^^)
<GMStoren> Cody walks down the halls, turning right. There are indeed stairs leading up. Strangely, he hears a sudden "THWACK" noise as he climbs them from above. ^^
* Cody jumps a bit, but keeps quiet, sneaking up the stairs.
<GMStoren> Cody attempts to be stealthy, and as he comes out of the staircase he catches the fainetst glimpse of a green blur whiz out of his sight! ^^
<Cody> . o O ( Hmm...a spell of some sort? )
<GMStoren> It seems to fade into the right hand wall. ^^
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kweh!
<Cody> ...She can pass through walls? O_o
<Cody> Hmm...let's even the odds a bit, eh? ^^; Gotta put you down for a second, Joch...
<Niki> «ooc: I should gain the ability to become invisible after this. :D »
* Cody places Joch gently on the floor.
<Niki> «ooc: That would rock. ^_^ »
<GMStoren> Joch sits down on the floor, looking at Cody.
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kweh?

* Cody patpats his head, pulls out his staff, and begins an incantation...
<Cody> Second self, dark yet known, let us gleen of your secrets in safety, to await like the sleeping flower to bloom when the dawn comes once more.
* Cody raps his staff on his own shadow. In response, it lengthens to reach out for Quickly, the shadow rises up to completely cover then sinks back down to the ground and dissipates. is nowhere to be found...
<GMStoren> >> Cody uses Shadows Fade! A dark fog covers his movement, rendering him unseen.
<GMStoren> Joch blinks. "Kweh! Kweh?"
<Cody> Shh! Don't worry...
<Cody> We gotta keep quiet though, or she'll know we're coming...
<GMStoren> Joch noddles and clamps hsi beak shut.
<Cody> Good boy...
* Cody nuzzles him and heads in the direction Niki went.
<GMStoren> Cody tries going over to the right side of the thrid floor chamber, and finds something simialr to what he encountered before. Only this time the door is there, though it seems rather fuzzy, like it's not static in lcoation.
<Cody> (w) Odd...
* Cody tries to go through the door.
<GMStoren> Cody slips through the door and ends up in a starnge indoor garden. o_o
<Niki> «ooc: With fruit shaped like various animals and objects? Is there a big tree that can talk too, wanting you to give her seeds? :o »
<Niki> «ooc: >> Cody gets an Apricat! »

<Niki> «ooc: What movie? »
<Cody> «ooc: not sure yet. ^^ He got booted off the phone »
<Niki> «ooc: If you say The Mexican, I'll shoot you. ;) »
<GMStoren> « ahh ^^ »
<GMStoren> « How is he doing? »
<Cody> «ooc: He's sorta stressed at finding a place to live after graduation, other htan that, fine :) »
<Cody> «ooc: Anyway, through shimmering door! :D »
<GMStoren> Cody finds himself plopped in the foyer again. o_O
<GMStoren> In fact, it's the wall he didn't see before.
<Cody> ...What the heck...? O_o
<Cody> «ooc: Is the door still there? ^^ »
<GMStoren> « yes »
<Cody> «ooc: And in teh foyer, there were multiple doors, right? :) »
<GMStoren> The door back to the garden is still shimmering in place.
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kweh? *sniffs*
<Cody> Joch? ^^
<Niki> «ooc: >> Joch gets high on Dryad leaves. »
<GMStoren> Joch looks back at the doorway Cody arrived from.
* Cody hmms, and heads back to the door he arrived from, walking through
<GMStoren> Cody finds himself in the garden again. Looking closely there's one door for each of the cardinal directions, including the one behind you at the south.
<Cody> . o O ( Guess we do trial and error... )
* Cody heads in the north door.
<GMStoren> Cody heads into the north gateway, but as he does so he feels the sensation of something brushing past him and the sight of pigtails for a brief instance before the light fades and he is in a chapel hallway.
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kweh! o_O
<Cody> . o O ( Drat! Missed her! )
<Cody> «ooc: she ran forward or backward? »
<Niki> «ooc: You'll have to guess! Mwahhaha. ;) »
<GMStoren> « common sense here. think how it's connected. ^^ »
<Cody> «ooc: ^^ Is hard! I have no common sense! ;) »
* Cody heads down the chapel hallway.
<GMStoren> Joch nips at Cody's ear
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kweh! kweh!
<Niki> «ooc: <Ben> Its the door! The CPU is past the door! Right? »
<Cody> Joch? ^^; Did she go backwards or forwards? She went too fast to tell.
<Cody> «ooc: Shut up! Seriously! I'm tired! ^^ »
<Niki> «ooc: ^_- »
<GMStoren> Joch nudges Cody's large head around to the gateway. ^^
<Cody> Guess that answers that. ^^;
* Cody heads back to the gateway.
<GMStoren> At Joch's insistance, Cody retraces his steps, trying the teleporting door.. he arrvies int he garden again, but this time there's a familiar being in the middle of it. Flora, the Plant Angel is coevring her eyes with two viney hands, counting to 10. The door opposite from you has the faint remnants of a ripple elft in it. ^^
<GMStoren> [Flora] 8...9...
<Cody> . o O ( They're playing hide and go seek? )
<GMStoren> [Flora] 10! Ready or not here Flora comes!
<GMStoren> She opens her green eyes and starts to look around, but instead looks at Cody. "...wait... intruder?"
<Cody> Ah--! O_o
<Niki> «ooc: <Flora> DANGER WILL ROBINSON DANGER! »
<GMStoren> Flora huff up a bit, growing some thorny spikes, but then blinks. "Wait. Flora knows.. Cody."
<GMStoren> [Flora] Why Cody here?
* Cody sighs softly, and waves, "I'm sorry to interrupt your game, Flora..but I came to see Niki..."
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kwehhh!
<Cody> Oh, and Joch too. ^_-
<GMStoren> Flora lets he spines droop some, going back to an unassuming flowery look. "Niki said to Flora you do mean things to her. Flora sad." :(
<Cody> I know....I came to talk to her and apologize...patch things up if I can...
<Cody> I felt bad....
<GMStoren> [Flora] But Niki wants noone to see her. So Flora keep her company.
<Cody> ...Well...
<GMStoren> [Flora] If Niki wants you to see, you see. Flora put special spell on her.
<Cody> I saw, she was able to pass through walls. But just as a blur...
<GMStoren> [Flora] Walls are part of the fun.. Let Flora go back to game...?
<Cody> ...Okay...
<Cody> Sorry I bothred you. -_-; Let's go, Joch.
<GMStoren> [Flora] Unless Cody really want to apologize...
<Cody> I do...But if she doesn't want to see me I can't force her...
<GMStoren> Joch doesn't seem to be on Cody's shoduelr when he checks btw.
<Cody> ...Joch? Hey...did you see where my Chocobo went? 
<GMStoren> Cody looks around, and spots the the little yellow guy by one of the doors. In fact, he's in the air a couple feet off the ground. At first you think he's flying, but he seems to be situated atop something hidden. ^^
<GMStoren> [Joch] kweh kweh!
<Cody> Joch...? ^^ Did you find Niki?
<GMStoren> [Flora] Chocobo friend? *blink*
* Cody takes a few steps closer. ^^
<GMStoren> Joch seems to take a few steps back from Cody, but he doesn't seem to be walking.
<Cody> «ooc: Wouldn't just 'a couple of feet' be ' a few feet?' »
<Cody> ...Niki/
<Cody> «ooc: er ? »
<GMStoren> « hmm.. few.. yeah :) »
*** Niki is now known as Niki-slash
<Niki-slash> «ooc: Fear my name. "Niki/" »
*** Niki-slash is now known as Niki
<GMStoren> « ^^; »
<Cody> «ooc: I was wondering o_o I'm like, "Niki is two feet tall!? Wha? »
<Cody> ...Hey, Niki...if that's you...I'm...I'm sorry. For everything.
<GMStoren> Flora turns her petals into legs and walks over to the apparent floating chocobo. She whispers something.
<Cody> «ooc: Flora: Is Cody always this dumb? Joch: Kweh Kweh! (Only her player! :) ) »
<Niki> >> Cody notices a tongue stick out at her, out of no where. 
<Niki> «ooc: Him! »
<GMStoren> « LOL »
<Cody> «ooc: Damn, storen! Not you too! ;) »
<Cody> ...I guess I deserve that. :/
<Niki> «ooc: <Niki> Quit Angsting you dummy. <Cody> but, but but... *deflates* »
<Cody> The way we treated you was wrong. I didn't know about the problems in Gold City, but...
<Cody> «ooc: Hey, he's honestly sorry! Shaddup! ^^ »
* Cody sighs. :/
<Niki> ...Yeah right.  You suck.
<Niki> «ooc: Still invisible BTW. »
<Cody> I am! I honestly came to save you  because I were worried about you. i'm not lying about that. Rachel feels bad that she hit you. :/ 
<GMStoren> Flora sits on the root of the tree, brushing some pink hair out of her face and sighing. ^^
<Niki> Yeah right.  She prolly doesn't care.  She sucks too.
<Cody> Hmm...what can I do to prove that I'm not lying?
<Cody> «ooc: prove to you, even »
<Niki> Umm...nothing.  I bet you like to lie.
<Ashton> «ooc: <Niki> You can go f*** yourself! <Cody> O_o »
<Cody> I don't...Agh...
* Cody actually looks really sad.
<Niki> But you did play Invisible Warp Hide and go seek.  Maybe your a little better, but that stupid sword dummy really sucks.
<Niki> Watching you look stupid was cool. *lets out a small muffled laugh*
<GMStoren> [Flora] ...Cody no feel like he's lying...
<Niki> >> Joch's body turns towards Flora, as Niki turns her head to look at her.
<Niki> Maybe he is pretending to not lie.
<GMStoren> [Joch] *looks down, nibbling invisible hair* Kweh.... Kweh...
<Cody> Rachel feels bad for what she did. :/ She would have come, but I bet you wouldn't appreciate all of us barging in on your game...I just felt that...well...I felt very bad. A lot of us do. And I just wanted to tell you that...I hope you'll believe me some day, Niki.
* Niki giggles a bit as Joch does this.
<Niki> Did Keylia say she was sorry too?  Or did she just laugh?
<Cody> «ooc: I forgot. Did she? ^^ »
<Cody> She didn't laugh. :/ She was sad and fustrated.
<Niki> I bet that stupid stinky man wants to beat me up some more.  At least the guy with the funky hair didn't beat me up.  He's better then you.
<Cody> «ooc: Ow ^^ »
<Ashton> «ooc: *twitch* »
<Ashton> «ooc: I DO NOT HAVE FUNKY HAIR »
<Cody> «ooc: That HURT »
<Cody> «ooc: Actually, techically, he did ;) »
<GMStoren> « heh »
<Niki> «ooc: You should be happy. Chrys is better then Cody. ;) »
<Niki> «ooc: No he didn't. He just walked off towards the Moon Palace. »
* Cody decides not to tell Niki that the 'funky haired man' did beat her up once.
<Cody> «ooc: no, he did. Way back at Gaia's navel. He slapped oyu »
<Cody> «ooc: ^^ »
<Niki> «ooc: She isn't counting that. She's only thinking of the Moon Palace incident. »
<Cody> «ooc: I know. ^^ »
<Ashton> «ooc: Um, Cody. »
<Ashton> «ooc: She's 12. It's a wonder she can remember as far back as she is :P »
<Cody> «ooc: I CAN! I COULD WHEN I WAS 10-12! I was a magical girl! With magical hair! And I'm tired! »
<Niki> Oh, and that other guy...the one with the stick that shoots out rocks.  He didn't beat me up. He's better then you too.
<Cody> ...
<Cody> «ooc: Techically though, Cody didn't beat her up, unless she counts shoving a herb in her mouth beating her up, which she obviously does :) »
<Cody> You're probably right.
<Niki> «ooc: She beat her up for almost killing Rhiana...before the herb stuffing. »
<Cody> «ooc: This is Rachel or Cody? »
<Niki> «ooc: Cody. »
<Cody> «ooc: No he didn't. He just yelled at her O_o »
<Niki> «ooc: Oh yeah...and I punched you for it. :D »
<Niki> «ooc: Well she considers it a verbal beating. ^_^ »
<GMStoren> « funny arguing over abuse ^^ »
<Cody> «ooc: Well what goes around comes around! Mwah! ;) »
<Cody> ...Anyway...I...
* Cody looks like he's trying to figure out what to say next.
<Niki> You want me to go with you so you can beat me up some more.
<GMStoren> Flora looks between the two. "Flora no want Niki to leave..."
<Niki> I'm not going to leave.  I'm gonna stay here forever.
<Cody> I never asked you to...I just wanted you to know how we all felt.
<GMStoren> [Joch] kweh?
<Niki> Suure...so I would go with you and get beat up.  Or you'll prolly send me back to that stupid house.
<Cody> ^^; Niki...I don't think you have to worry about your parents for a long time...They...um...sort of got arrested.
<GMStoren> « Usually it's the OTHER way around ^_^ »
<Cody> And beleive me, I won't let anyone beat you up again. I felt bad about before, I won't let it happen again.
<Niki> >> Niki's face becomes visible to Cody, as Niki nuzzles with Joch.  After a moment it becomes invisible again.
<Niki> Oops...don't look at me.  You suck.
<Niki> Yeah right...thats what Keylia said, and I got my butt kicked.
<Cody> Well, you'll have Keylia and me looking out after you. ^^ But I'm telling the truth about your folks. They won't bother you anymore, I think.
<Niki> Yeah right...they have lots of money.  They will just buy everything back.
<Cody> I don't think so this time...They can't buy everything back when they're caught red handed doing something wrong.
<Niki> I still don't believe you.  You even stole my favorite axe.  I have to use this stupid one that I took from my house now.
<Cody> ...I didn't know...
<Cody> I can't apologize for that because I wasn't a part of it... :/ Nor did I know they actually hid it.
<Cody> «ooc: Note: I'm not 100% sure Cody DID hear or not. »
<Niki> They hid my axe?  Oh, they suck even more now!
<Cody> I'm not sure if they did or not.
<Niki> Then where is it?
<Ashton> «ooc: That's right, Cody...just keep digging the hole deeper...here, let me give you a bigger shovel. »
<Cody> Honestly, I don't know. When I head back, I can ask.
<GMStoren> Flora nods her head, some pollen falling off like glittering jewel. "Flora has idea..."
<Cody> «ooc: Flora can DRUG HIM TO TELL EVERYTHING WITH HER HAPPY WEED POLLEN. *Cough* »
<Niki> Why ask?  You don't have to since you don't need to come back here anymore.
<Cody> I just thought maybe you would like to know...
<Niki> I can go find it myself.
<Niki> «ooc: I'll search the world till I find it! :O »
* Cody nods, "If that's what you want to do I can't stop you..."
*** Cody (~dinner@ZiRC-32476.lclark.edu) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
*** Cody (~dinner@ZiRC-32476.lclark.edu) has joined #pureland
<Niki> «ooc: :O »
<GMStoren> « boo ;_; »
<Niki> «ooc: Least I didn't sayanything. »
*** GMStoren sets mode: +o Cody
<Cody> «ooc: Gehehehe »
<Niki> «ooc: Uhh, theres suppose to be a space in there. »
* Cody nods, "If that's what you want to do I can't stop you..." (repost)
<Niki> «ooc: All of the Peer attacks are getting to Lucca. She's going mad! :O »
<Niki> «ooc: We saw it. :) »
<Cody> «ooc: Just making sure :D »
<GMStoren> « yep ^^ »
* Niki says nothing for a minute, then after a moment of silence...Cody hears something. "Your boring..."
<Cody> «ooc: Damn, Niki. You make it so hard to like Niki ;) »
<Niki> «ooc: I know. ;) »
<GMStoren> « no kidding. :) »
<Niki> «ooc: But this is how its suppose to be right now. ;) »
* Cody raises an eyebrow, "Well, I'd play a game or something with you...but...according to you I suck. :/"
<GMStoren> Flora flops off the giant root. "If Niki bored, we can play something else."
<Niki> You do suck.  But you were pretty funny before, but you made my pal run into the wall.
* Niki rubs Joch's beak, but Cody can't see this.
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kweh.. kweh! kweh..
* Niki looks at Flora. "Yeah...lets go play something."
* Cody looks to Joch, "Joch...? Do you want to stay here?"
<GMStoren> Joch kwehs questioningly, unsure. ^^
<Cody> Or are you heading home with me? ^^;
<Cody> It's up to you, but I might not see you for a long time if you stay here.
<GMStoren> [Joch] *looks down at invisble Niki then up again* Kweh! Kuwehkweh
<Cody> «ooc: Is that a "Yes! Wanna stay with Niki?"^^ »
<GMStoren> He flops his wings once, like he's trying to look brave?
<Cody> «ooc: So is that a yes? ^^ I assume so. »
<GMStoren> « it's sort of a "let me watch ehr!" »
* Cody nods, trying to keep out the slight dissapointment out of his face. He rummages through his backpack and places some of Joch's food on the floor, "Okay...be a good boy and take care of her, okay?"
* Niki pulls something out of her sack and tosses it to Cody. As soon as it leaves her hand it becomes visible to Cody. The Midge Mallet that she likes to carry around lands next to his feet. "You can have that to show everyone that I'm gonna stay here."
<Cody> ...Okay.
<GMStoren> Joch nods, and starts looking at the food Cody set down. ^_^
<Cody> You sure you don't want to keep it? I can just tell everyone you're staying her myself.
<Niki> You mean you told everyone that you came here?
<Cody> Not everyone...but Rachel knows. ^^; I couldn't tell everyone because they'd get mad if I took Flammie anywhere.
<Cody> They all want to ride him ^_-
<Cody> «ooc: her »
<Niki> Maybe they will think your lying.  You can show that to them so they will leave me alone.
* Cody nods, "Well...if you really say so..."
* Cody takes the mallet and places it in his pack.
<Niki> Don't break it though.  Cuz that is mine.  You can borrow it.
<Cody> Okay...
<Cody> I'll be careful. Promise.
<Niki> Okay...
<Cody> ...I should probably be heading back. You have a place in our group, Niki. I know right now you don't wnat to head back, and you certainly don't have to. But it's there, and if you ever want to head back you're welcome. Take care, okay? And don't let Joch tease you. ^_-
<GMStoren> Joch looks a little hurt for a sec. ^^
* Niki starts walking over to Flora, her body becoming completely visible to Cody...almost like she walked out from behind a wall. She looks back at Cody. "Okay..."
<GMStoren> Flora smiles.
* Cody gives Joch a wink, "I'm kidding. Take care, Joch. Keep in touch. :) We'll see each other again."
<GMStoren> [Flora] Cody leaving?
* Cody nods slowly, "I have to head back. We have to seal the last seed..."
* Niki points to the south warp. "You can go that way. It takes you to the door."
<GMStoren> [Flora] *nods* Flora wish good luck.
<Cody> Okay...thanks., and take care.
* Cody waves goodbye to Niki, Joch, and Flora, and heads through the warp, trying to conceal the saddness and lonliness on his face as he goes.
<GMStoren> Cody vanishes from the room..
<Cody> «ooc: His damn CHOCOBO abandoned him. THat's so sad ;_; »
<Niki> «ooc: LOL. »
<GMStoren> « no, he's watching ehr for you :D »
<Cody> «ooc: I know ;) »
* Niki looks down a little, then up at Flora.
<GMStoren> « besides Niki's the NPC magnet ^^ »
<Niki> Do you think he was lying?
<GMStoren> [Flora] Flora no think Cody lie. he good person... Niki alright?
* Niki rubs her eyes a little. "Yeah...you wanted to play. What do you wanna play?"
<Cody> «ooc: Aww. She's crying ;_; »
<Niki> «ooc: Naw, just a bit watery. :) »
<GMStoren> [Flora] Maybe Niki like to play pattycake with Griffin. Very fun. ^_^
<Niki> Okay, but my pal gets to play too.
<GMStoren> [Joch] Kweh!
* Niki pets Joch.
<GMStoren> Flora nods, and shifts out of existence with Niki & Joch... off somewhere else. ^^
* Niki starts off, not with as much enthusiasm as before...like she has something on her mind.
<GMStoren> Meanwhile Cody mounts Flammie sadly, something in his gut telling him this isn't the last he's seen of the tiny terror named Niki...
<Cody> «ooc: I made her head crack ;_; I'm so sorry, Niki. »
<GMStoren> ~~ INTERLUDE END ~~
<Cody> ^_^ Hmm.
