{Angelo} Hi Laz (again!)
{lazarus2} flack. Things are screwy for me.
{lazarus2} I'm going to see about switching WLANs and see if that works.
|{-- lazarus1 has left irc.magicstar.net (Ping timeout)
{lazarus2} I'll be back in a bit. Hopefully.
{Knockwood} cat chewing your cables?
|{-- lazarus2 has left irc.magicstar.net (Disintegrated: Leaving.)
{Random_Nerd} While we wait for Laz to fix his connection, any questions?
{Angelo} One
{Angelo} Was Martyrs hitting on Ftisk?
--}| lazarus1 (~Mike@MagicStar-B245C66F.storm.ca) has joined #Nobilis
{Verithe} I was wondering how one might create an edible blue pasta.
{Verithe} I was thinking of using red cabbage.
{Angelo} (with Blue Curacao in the ingredients, Verithe)
{lazarus1} Sara just let Boots out. Hopefully he'll come home after going to the washroom.
{BethE} I would think that blueberry could work with a wheat pasta.
|{-- lazarus has left irc.magicstar.net (Ping timeout)
=-= lazarus1 is now known as lazarus
{Verithe} I can't get Blue Curacao here.

• Angelo sad for V.
  

{Random_Nerd} Hmm. I don't think Martyrs is romantically interested in Ftisk.
{Angelo} ok, good to know RN, last session debriefing there was a comment on this and I was wondering if I was missing something obvious to you all
{Random_Nerd} Laz, your connection working?
{lazarus} seems to be.
{lazarus} switched to the other WLAN.
=-= BethE is now known as Theresa
{lazarus} two networks, two internet connections. Both ours.

{Random_Nerd} Anything before we start?
=-= YOU are now known as Ftiskrand
{Random_Nerd} Okay, let's go.
{Random_Nerd} _____________START__________________
{Ftiskrand} (last time our heroes meet martyrs on a trip to save a dog, a really messed dog)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "I don't suppose any of you have magical dog-locating powers, so I don't have to think up something clever?"
{Ftiskrand} "Well, I can divinate from common people memories"
{DanteE} "Well, maybe, if it's doing something particularly gutsy."
{Theresa} (Are we back in our chancel?)
{Random_Nerd} (Doesn't Ftisk's thing only work reliably on sentient people?)
{Random_Nerd} (You're still in the condemned building, Beth.)
{Theresa} (Ah, thank you.)
{Ftiskrand} (Yep on something that can have memories stored somewhere in them)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "And I've checked for dogs that happen to be martyrs, but since all of the ones around here are already in this room..."

• Theresa LDiv the location of the nearest tree that has been peed on by a dog most recently.
  

{Theresa} "I'll check the trees..."
{DanteE} "Well, his pack is right here...
{Kite} "Dogs are rarely a part of my Estate."
{Brian} (we were going to the Chancel, weren't we?)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "I want to talk to another dog. And I don't know any Nobles that are dogs, so..."
{Brian} (and which dog are we looking for? *spaced*)
{DanteE} (Wouldn't creating a pack be in Kite's domain?)

• Ftiskrand LDiv of dogs that people sight near this place
  

{Random_Nerd} (She's looking for a dog that is not part of this pack.)
{Theresa} (We had talked about heading back to the Chancel but hadn't gotten everything together yet.)
{Brian} (any dog that's not part of this pack, or a specific dog?)
{Random_Nerd} (Ftisk, someone is currently walking a border collie about three blocks from your current location.)
{Ftiskrand} "can you give us more details on that dog?"
{Kite} (It depends.)
{Random_Nerd} (How close a tree are you looking for, and how recent?)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Not looking for a /specific/ dog. Just a dog that happens to not be one of them."
{Theresa} (Within a radius of 1 mile. Within the last 15 minutes.)
{Random_Nerd} (Seven trees or woody shrubs have been urinated on by a dog in the last 15 minutes. You know where they are.)
{Ftiskrand} "well, there is a collie three blocks from here " *point in the collie direction*
{DanteE} (Tell me about the dogs here?)
{Ftiskrand} "is a 'with human' one"
{Theresa} "Okay, there are seven trees nearby that have been...'watered' in the last 15 minutes. We should be able to find a dog near any of them.)"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "That works."
{Random_Nerd} (What about them, Dante?)

• Theresa will head toward the closest one.
  

{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Lead the way to the dog."
{Ftiskrand} (T to the three: "Hi, you remember where the waterer go?")
{DanteE} "Hold on..."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "What?"
{Ftiskrand} "What?"
{Theresa} "Talk on the way?"

• DanteE goes to the new (canine) pack leader, and does a Div-Courage to check what he's been fighting and/or scared of over the last few weeks...
  

{Random_Nerd} (Which dog are you talking about?)
{Ftiskrand} (is't it anchor immune?)
{Theresa} (I have no idea what you're talking about, Dante.)
{Theresa} (New pack leader? Do you mean the new body?)
{Random_Nerd} (The other dogs still defer to Mike. Mike is immune to divinations that detect things other than his presence.)
{DanteE} (No, the _canine_ leader. Who's now #2, I guess.)
{DanteE} (I want to see if we can get some info on what's breaking up the pack.)
{Random_Nerd} (When you say "the canine leader", what do you mean?)
{Random_Nerd} (The #2 dog in the hierarchy?)
{DanteE} (Yep)
{Random_Nerd} (Hmm. Would have been the bulldog, but now it's probably the shepherd. He has not recently been in a fight with another dog. He's scared of the fact that he's pretty much the only dog of sufficient size left, now that the bulldog's sacrificed himself.)
{Brian} (RN: he needs a drink to get through the working day?)
{Random_Nerd} (Heh.)
{Random_Nerd} (Yeah, that did kinda sound like DF thoughts.)
{DanteE} (Any word on why the pack's been diminishing lately?)
{Random_Nerd} (Scary thought: Nobilis Fortress.)
{Ftiskrand} (DF?)
{Random_Nerd} (None of the dogs here know why. The others just went AWOL, one or two at a time.)
{Random_Nerd} (Dwarf Fortress.)
{Random_Nerd} (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwarf_Fortress)
{DanteE} (Do I get images of the missing dogs?)
{Brian} (what's a good way of finding out ... hey, I have a thought)
{Kite} (A particularly attractive Afghan Hound led them astray.)
{DanteE} (... come to think of it I'd get smells of the missing dogs, wouldn't I?)
{Brian} "Dante, can you do a Div on any dogs who are afraid of letting Mike die? Or not afraid that he will die?"
{Random_Nerd} (Hmm... sense memories of the other dogs are a bit far from courage. How are you trying?)
{DanteE} "Good idea..."
{Ftiskrand} (that is nearer to Data that courage?)
{DanteE} (Scratch that, I'll try a Greater Div that Brian suggested)
{Random_Nerd} (Of the dogs on Earth, about 130 million have at least a vague preference that Mike not die, although they're not actively afraid of it. Only the dogs here in the room are immediately and significantly afraid that he might.)
{DanteE} (130 _million_?
{Brian} (wow, when you said it was in The Rules, you really meant that)
{Random_Nerd} (No dogs in a 60 mile radius other than the ones right there with you are worried at all that might die.)
{Brian} (I was assuming localized!)
{Random_Nerd} (Correct. 130 million. Not every dog on earth, but a sizable chunk of them.)
{DanteE} (That tells us something, though. Think: How would that many dogs get involved in anything?)
{Ftiskrand} (A imp! I say a Imp do that!. There is a imp of dogs?)
{Theresa} (If it's something that's part of being a _dog_, it would make sense, though.)
{DanteE} "Apparently, Mike has a lot of fans. Several million dogs would prefer he not die...
{Ftiskrand} (if is something that is part of being dog wouldn't have hit _all_ dogs?)
{Random_Nerd} (Oh, would you be checking for dogs that are in the solar system, but not on Earth?)
{DanteE} (... well, it was a GDiv.)
{Random_Nerd} (Sure, but how broad is it intended to be?)
{DanteE} "Sam? Who's in charge of Dogs?"
{Random_Nerd} Sam: "Noble-wise, I don't think there is one. Imperator-wise... let me check."
{DanteE} (I'm going to say it would extend to the moon... :) )
{Theresa} (We already asked that.)
{Brian} (we did?)
{Brian} (I'm sure we asked Noble-wise)
{Theresa} (Last time.)
{Brian} (and just ignored the Imperator question)
{Ftiskrand} (there is an imp, is Ophaniel's birth-twin)
{Random_Nerd} Sam: "There is no Noble of Dogs. There's an Imperator of Hounds."
{Random_Nerd} Sam: "No Chancel. Getting the details."
{DanteE} "...Ophaniel. Of course.
{Random_Nerd} (Did I say something about the Imperator of Dogs before? If I did, it was before this, and it doesn't seem to be in my notes or logs, but I want to keep things consistent.)
{Theresa} (I didn't think so. And Ophaniel isn't of Hounds. )
{Brian} (I remember Sam thinking there was an Imperator whose domain covered this, but not that we ever asked who or what specifically)
{DanteE} (Checking Who's Who. You said Tsaphiel is Imp of Hounds.)
{Ftiskrand} (I vaguely remember that you say that there is a dog's imp but is... well, vague)
{Random_Nerd} (Ophaniel is imperator of the /chase/, which is tied to dogs in some ways...)
{Random_Nerd} (Oh, yes. The early reference to the angel of the moon before I'd worked out her character. I'm going to retcon that.)
{Random_Nerd} (Since we basically have already, when Ophaniel became an actual character and not just a side reference.)
{DanteE} (But if Ophaniel is Imp of Hounds, then the blip we got from Walter would make sense.)
{Random_Nerd} Sam: "Let's see... Jeremiah, Magister of the Light. No Nobles. Imperator of Dogs, the Horse Collar, and Fences."
{Random_Nerd} (Ophaniel is specifically /not/ the Imperator of Hounds. That's deliberate.)
{Brian} "Worth speaking to him. Can you arrange that?"
{DanteE} "Maybe that's what happened...
{Random_Nerd} Sam: "He doesn't employ any of us, so it'd take a little while, but I can get things in motion."
{DanteE} "If Mike was saved by his dog, but that pissed off Jeremiah..."
{Theresa} "Well, while you guys call on him, Martyrs and I will go and talk to a dog."
{DanteE} (Is Martyrs guised?)
{Random_Nerd} (Yes. As pretty much herself, minus the scarifications and open wounds.)
{DanteE} to the Shepherd: "You. Follow us.
{DanteE} "Mike... be careful for a little while. We'll be back."

• Theresa heads toward the closest of the trees from her divination.
  

{Random_Nerd} (Right now, her non-guised look is pretty much a Cenobite in a business suit.)
{Random_Nerd} Mike: "I'm just going to sleep. That always takes it out of me. Okay, let's see. We have food aplenty, so no need to hunt, but let's have four keep watch."
{Random_Nerd} Mike lies down.
{Brian} "so, Dante, how do you feel about talking to an Imperator?"
{DanteE} "It's not like we haven't done it. Hell, we've been in one's head."
{Random_Nerd} Most of the dogs continue to stuff themselves full of meat, almost like squirrels fattening up for the winter. They've been hungry before, and they'll be hungry again, but right now is the time to build up some fat reserves.

• Kite is excited.
  

{Random_Nerd} Four of the smaller dogs walk out of the building.
{Brian} "I meant, today"

• Ftiskrand giggle
  

{Random_Nerd} There's an almost military step to their pace. More of a march than a shamble, really.

• Theresa will keep an eye out for any dogs on the way to the tree.
  

{DanteE} (The Shepherd is coming with us, right?)
{Ftiskrand} (and we go to meet the collie?)
{Random_Nerd} (Yep. He's a little nervous about leaving Mike without him, but he's coming.)
{Random_Nerd} (So, are you guys going to the tree, the collie, or both?)
{DanteE} to the Shepherd: "You smell any former pack mates nearby?"
{Theresa} (The collie sounds good.)
{Ftiskrand} (I follow DanteE)
{DanteE} (I still don't get why Martyrs wants to see a random dog)
{Theresa} (We can look for the tree if the collie doesn't work out for whatever Martyrs wants.)
{Brian} (question: could decreasing the rate of decay of a body be a Preservation of Numbers?)
{Random_Nerd} (Hmm... when it's a discrete group of individuals, then yes. Do you want to make it so the group stays the same size, or just so it doesn't decrease?)
{Random_Nerd} You quickly find a teenage girl walking a collie.
{Brian} (not a body of individuals, but of a corpse. Oh wait, would the dog suit that Mike is wearing have Anchorlike immunity?)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs says: "Hey, can we talk to your dog? It's important."
{Random_Nerd} (Of a corpse, no.)

• Ftiskrand wave to the dog and also to the girl
  

{Random_Nerd} (The "dog suit" is part of Mike's body for most supernatural purposes.)
{Random_Nerd} She looks confused for a moment, but then says: "Well, if it's really important, than sure. I'll be over there."
{Brian} (How about increasing the size of dogs? And then ensuring that the population of Dogs Big Enough never falls lower?)
{Random_Nerd} She hands Martyrs the dog's leash, and walks over to a newspaper stand.
{Theresa} "Nice."
{Random_Nerd} (Hmm. Increasing the size of dogs, I'd have to hear how you'd do it. Making the number of dogs of a certain size remain steady, that you could do.)

• Ftiskrand look in mythic at the woman
  

{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Handy little trick. When I ask people to do something for the good of others, they can automatically tell how important it is."
{DanteE} (And either way would probably need the Power of Dogs...)
{Brian} (and how would that interact with the dog-body thing?)
{Theresa} "Interesting. I don't think I've learned how to be that subtle yet."
{Ftiskrand} "Hey, nice, niiice trick Martyrs!"
{Random_Nerd} The teenager walking over to the newstand, mythically, has a garland of flowers on her head, and a "Deputy" badge pinned to her shirt.
{DanteE} (You realize I can basically do a Jedi Mind Trick with a Ghost, ne?)
{Random_Nerd} (Hmm. Interact with a preservation of Mike's own body, or what?)
{DanteE} to the Shepherd: "You recognize this dog at all?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Hey, you there, Collie."
{Theresa} (And I can destroy someone's brain. ^^ )
{Random_Nerd} Collie: "I have a name, you know."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs looks at the collie's collar.
{Brian} (no, not that, but rather ... dog dies, how is it replaced?)
{Random_Nerd} Shepherd: "Nope. All collies look alike to me, but the smell's wrong."
{Random_Nerd} (Depends on the circumstances. But there'll be a tendency for a new dog to show up pretty soon, unless some greater force prevents it.)
{Random_Nerd} (Specifying an unusual method, like Spontaneous Canine Generation, would take a Lesser Change with included Preservation.)
{Brian} (so, if I set a lower boundary of, say, 1 + Mike on the number of Dogs Big Enough In This Area, that would effectively solve the problem?)
{Random_Nerd} (Probably, but if something were to happen to Mike and the other dog at the same time, another might not show up in time.)
{Theresa} (I like the thought of Spontaneous Canine Generation. I prefer cats, though.)
{Random_Nerd} (But it'd certainly help, and it might even solve the problem.)
{Brian} (the other question is is that the problem we're trying to solve?)
{DanteE} (that's not The Problem. It's _A_ problem, but not The problem.)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Ginger, do you know who Mike Cook is?"
{Kite} (Though we still haven't figured out if we want to keep this situation sustained.)
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "Rings a bell..."
{DanteE} (Did Ginger show up in my Div?)
{Random_Nerd} (No.)
{Random_Nerd} (No nearby dogs that were not part of the pack did.)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Courage, you said that a lot of dogs were at least slightly worried about Mike. Is Ginger here one of them?"
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "No, I know this one. I'm supposed to... do something about him, aren't I? Don't remember what, though."
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "Why?"
{DanteE} "She didn't show up, no."
|{-- Ftiskrand has left irc.magicstar.net (Ping timeout)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Hmm."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "But a lot of dogs did, dogs all over?"
{Theresa} (What percentage of the total # of dogs is the number Dante had?)
{DanteE} ".... hm. There's a dog on the moon who may have ... yeah, I got over a hundred million."
{Random_Nerd} (If you included dogs not on earth, but in the solar system, you got an extra 15 million dogs.)
{Random_Nerd} (Walter the Sheepdog was /not/ included.)
{DanteE} (hm... lost dogs...)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Ginger, Mike Cook is dead, and it's your fault."
{Brian} "... O_O"
{Ftiskrand} (this is mean!)
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "Shit! That's what it was! That was the thing! I was supposed to keep him alive!"
{Brian} (... it would be fun to play the Power of Emoticons)
{Ftiskrand} "Hey Martyrs!"
{Random_Nerd} Ginger assumes the Guilty Dog Pose.
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Yeah?"

• DanteE fires off a Div-Courage to get exactly why she's afraid
  

{Ftiskrand} "What are you doing to this Ginger?"
{Random_Nerd} (Ginger is afraid that she's a Bad Dog, because she forgot to do something really important, and now it's too late.)
{Random_Nerd} (Ginger has always tried very hard not to be a Bad Dog, and has been doing pretty well since the thing with the sofa cushions, but now it seems like it's too late.)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Wanted to see if that'd work."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Ginger, I think I was mistaken. Mike isn't dead."
{Random_Nerd} Ginger stops cringing.
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "Is he safe?"
{Brian} "Sorta."
{DanteE} (define "safe"...)
{Ftiskrand} "oh. well, then seem it work"
{DanteE} "Ginger? What exactly is it about Mike that's so important?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Ginger, I want you to do something. It's important, it'll help keep Mike safe. Whenever you meet a dog, especially a dog without a human, I want you to tell them that Mike Cook is in danger, and that if they don't try to help him, that they're a Bad Dog."
{Random_Nerd} Ginger looks at Dante as if that's the stupidest question she's ever heard.
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "He's /Mike Cook/."
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "Gotta keep him safe. It's a dog thing."
{Kite} "Make's sense."
{Ftiskrand} to Martyrs: "you are trying the viral approach, ne?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Well, using power to force them to do it just feels wrong. I know they're not humans, but even still, it should be their choice."
{DanteE} "Brian, how many dogs could wind up part of the pack if she does that?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Ginger, tell them these three things. Mike is in danger if they don't help, only a Bad Dog would not help, and I said it's important."
{Random_Nerd} Ginger nods.
{Random_Nerd} Mythically, Ginger's collar takes a different shape. It almost looks like a military badge.
{Theresa} "If we head to our Chancel, would these new dogs be able to find us?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Okay, that's my idea. Anyone else have any questions for her?"
{DanteE} hm... I'll look at her owner's Deputy badge...
{Brian} (LDiv of the math behind how the contact grid would spread)
{DanteE} to Ginger: "When did you first hear about Mike Cook?
{Random_Nerd} (A lesser divination isn't enough to predict the future with absolute certainty, but it gives you a plausible forecast. If nothing happens to act against this attempt, Mike's pack will be at least twice the size it is now in one month, and it will include at least four dogs of sufficient size.)
{Random_Nerd} Ginger again looks at Dante as if he's nuts.
{Random_Nerd} (What about the badge are you looking at?)
{DanteE} (I get that a lot.)
{DanteE} (Who's she Deputy of?)
{Brian} "About twice the size in a month, and at least four dogs Big Enough. I can keep that as the minimum number of dogs in that pack, by the way. But what are we trying to solve here?"
{Random_Nerd} (It's just a brass star that says "Deputy" on it. The badge waves to Dante as he looks at it.)
{Ftiskrand} "why he is as he is question... I believe?"
{DanteE} "Yeah, we want to know what's so important about Mike."
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "He's /Mike/."
{Brian} "So we don't /really/ care if he lives or dies?"
{Kite} "We /are/ going to talk to Jeremiah, right? We have Fences to discuss."
{Ftiskrand} "hey, this can be the effect of a change that can spread with just the mention of Mike Cook to a dog?"
{Brian} (afk)
{Ftiskrand} "I don't care if he live or not"
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "You're not a /dog/."
{Ftiskrand} "Sure!"
{Ftiskrand} "is a dog /thing/"
{Theresa} "But it didn't really kick in until the mention of Mike being in trouble."
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "It's like cats. Cats lick themselves, and they don't understand a pack."
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "Yeah. Something made me forget. Someone was trying to make me be a Bad Dog."
{Random_Nerd} Ginger: "I'm still mad about that."
{DanteE} (!)
{Theresa} (Hmm.)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "I figure that the mention of the name, plus the fact that I said it was important, should be enough."
{DanteE} "Could it be an _attack_ on Dogs, though his Anchor?"
{Ftiskrand} "why an attack? ... fell more like a course"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Weird that the Imperator isn't doing anything about it, then."
{DanteE} "We don't know that.
{DanteE} "But... I think that may be what Walter was wondering about."
{Brian} (b)
{Theresa} "He did mention that he felt like he was forgetting something..."
{Ftiskrand} (RN, you stated previously that Walter was not concerned with this, right?)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Walter?"
{Random_Nerd} (Correct. He did not show up to Dante's miracle.)
{Theresa} *to Martyrs* "Walter is a sheep dog that is formerly of our Chancel but now living on the Moon."
{DanteE} "We gave a sheepdog to the Angel of the Moon."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Wait, there are dogs on the moon?"

• Ftiskrand nod nod
  

{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Weird."
{DanteE} "How else are you going to control the lost sheep?"
{Brian} "Can any of you talk to Walter directly?"
{DanteE} Where's the nearest dog that did show up on my GDiv?
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Ginger, you can go back to your boss, now."
{Random_Nerd} (Not counting Mike's pack? About sixty miles away or so.)
{Ftiskrand} (field trip?)
{DanteE} "The closest dog that really gave a damn about Mike was 60 miles away..."
{Ftiskrand} "I can make a car to go there..."
{DanteE} "We've got my car, remember?"
{Kite} "I've always wanted to try driving."
{Ftiskrand} "yes, but is not _here_! we need to walk some blocks"

• Ftiskrand puf in creation a A-Team vehicle and give to Kite the keys
  

{Theresa} "Just remember, Kite, I'm still healing from the Warmain fighting..."
{Kite} "YESSSS!"
{Ftiskrand} with on the side painted Noble-Team of course
{DanteE} "We're in public, Ftisk..."
{Ftiskrand} "crap!"
{Ftiskrand} "Sorry, forgot..."
{Random_Nerd} (Oh, if you're wondering, Martyrs' gift is built on a Lesser Creation of Knowledge Of Importance, Automatic When Appropriate, Almost Anywhere, Limited Selection, Uncommon. 5 points. Pretty expensive, but it can be used to do a lot of things that are useful to her.)
{Theresa} (And it doesn't destroy their brains, like Theresa's?)
{Theresa} (And am I back to Durant?)
{Random_Nerd} (It doesn't make them obey it, it only gives them the knowledge of how significant the request is.)
{Random_Nerd} (But on the other hand, it works even indirectly. If Ginger tells another dog that Martyrs said it was important, it will trigger then, too, even if she doesn't know about it.)
{Ftiskrand} (is a spiffy gift!)
{DanteE} "Let's find that dog. He's (location)."
{Random_Nerd} (Do you guys like it when I point out the ways that NPC nobles use their powers?)

• Ftiskrand go in the inside of the Kite driven car
  

{DanteE} (Sure, we've got points. :) )
{Ftiskrand} (Yes RN, I like the inside perspective :-) )
{Brian} (I like it. Shows how the system can be bent.)
{Kite} (I like it. :) )
{Theresa} (And it can give ideas for gifts for ourselves later.()

• Kite honks the horn a lot.
  
• Ftiskrand lg an Aidee hearRing
  

{Random_Nerd} (Oh, and she also has a related Simple-Miracle Gift based on a Preservation of Metaphysical Location that she can use to keep people who do things she asks them to from going to Hell in their next incarnation. She'd wanted one that made them go to Heaven, but she realized that the Angels would just trump her miracle if she tried it.)

• Ftiskrand gives it to Kite
  

{Brian} (actually, that Gift can actually fit Brian, with a different look on his Beloved Chancelfolk Gift)

• DanteE boards the vehicle...
  

{Random_Nerd} (You've practically got the same thing going, as far as chancelfolk go.)
{Kite} "Thank you!"
{Random_Nerd} (Shall we cut to you guys arriving at the dog?)
{Random_Nerd} Ginger trots off to her owner.
{Ftiskrand} "You are welcome... at random time it will shine... " *wink*
{Kite} (works for me)
{Ftiskrand} (let's cut!)
{Theresa} (Sounds good.)
{DanteE} (Sure)
{Brian} (yeah, though I could see a limited form of it manifest in non-Chancelfolk. Actually, what I'm thinking is more like fame/infamy: people will treat him as important, and he'll either be liked or hated by non-Chancelfolk. When the collider is up and running, of course)
{Brian} (and sure)
{Random_Nerd} You pull over next to a mutt of vaguely terrier-like shape, which is intently watching a squirrel in a nearby tree.
{Brian} (would it qualify as a Hound?)
{Random_Nerd} (Yes.)
{DanteE} (Actually, is there a power of Hounds, or does Dogs cover them?)
{Random_Nerd} (There's no power of either Estate.)
{Theresa} (Imperator of Hounds.)
{DanteE} (OK, does Jeremiah cover Hounds?)
{Random_Nerd} (There is an Imperator of Hounds, an estate which includes all domestic or feral dogs, but no wolves, foxes, or other canines.)
{Random_Nerd} (Yes, he is the Imperator of Hounds.)
{DanteE} (Just checking the terminology)
{DanteE} "Who wants to lead?"
{Ftiskrand} "Martyrs?"
{Theresa} "Perhaps Martyrs."
{Brian} "Martyrs"

• DanteE examines the dog and the area with Sight and Mythic view
  
• Brian is currently in Remember Details For Future Interactions Mode
  

{Brian} (not that it ever, you know, works, but still)
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Hey, dog! Come over here, it's important."
{DanteE} (It's called the Wiki. :) )
{Random_Nerd} The dog retracts its attention from coiling around the squirrel, and tosses it over to Martyrs.
{Random_Nerd} Dog: "Hey."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "You know who Mike Cook is, right?"
{Random_Nerd} Dog: "Sure. Why?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "What are you supposed to do about him?"
{Random_Nerd} Dog: "Keep him alive, safe, that kind of thing."
{Random_Nerd} The squirrel scurries off out of sight, clutching a smugness to its chest as it looks back at the dog.
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Okay, this one remembers it."
{DanteE} to the dog: "Could you tell us about Mike?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "So, what happened? I can't think of anything."
{Random_Nerd} Dog: "He's important. Gotta keep him safe."
{Theresa} "Maybe it's a dampening effect based on a closeness to Mike. Like a donut. The ones in his pack remember and outside a certain distance. But if the pack gets in that certain distance, they forget."
{Brian} (hm...)
{Brian} (the Library is hooked up to the Realm's Heart, right?)
{Ftiskrand} "Uhm, but the millions of dogs that remember?"
{Theresa} "They're all outside of that certain area."
{DanteE} "Yeah, but the _closest_ one that did was 60 miles away..."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Hmm. Which way does the causality work, though?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Did those dogs remember because they were close, or were they close because they remembered?"
{Random_Nerd} Dog: "Hey, is Mike somewhere around here?"
{Ftiskrand} "ah, good question"
{DanteE} "... unless there was a localized effect that made people forget. That would be centered on Mike."
{Random_Nerd} Dog: "Because, I mean, I have a job. Those rats aren't going to stay away from the bags of grain on their /own/. But if he's nearby, I should at least see how he's doing."
{Brian} "Would you recognize him if you saw him?"
{Random_Nerd} The dog gives Brian the look that Ginger gave Dante earlier.
{Brian} "Do you want to meet him?"

• Ftiskrand lDiv another dog that don't have the Mike Cook rule
  

{Random_Nerd} Dog: "Well, I mean, if he's in the area, I should at least see if he's doing okay."
{Random_Nerd} (How, Ftisk?)
{DanteE} "... he's that way. Bit of a walk, though.:
{Theresa} "How do you define your 'area'?"
{Random_Nerd} Dog: "I don't know, as close as I can walk in a day or two? I don't want my humans to worry."
{Ftiskrand} (lDiv data in the dogs memories looking for one without mike cook)
{Random_Nerd} (It's not a memory. It's an instinct.)
{Random_Nerd} (And instincts aren't data.)
{Ftiskrand} (ouch)
{DanteE} (I wonder if he'll suddenly forget when he gets close to Mike)
{Brian} "Want to go for a ride?"
{Theresa} "Maybe that's how the area of forgetfulness is based."
{Random_Nerd} Dog: "Can I stick my head out the window?"
{Brian} "If you want."
{Random_Nerd} Dog: "Then yes."
{Random_Nerd} The dog has a flea-collar, but no name on it.

• Brian opens the door. "Come on in. What can we call you?"
  

{Ftiskrand} (nooo, he will piss on my car!)
{Random_Nerd} Dog: "Francis."
{DanteE} (We've been carrying a Shepherd, remember?)
{Brian} "Welcome Francis. We'll take you to meet Mike, then drop you back off here."
{Random_Nerd} Shepherd: "Hey."
{Kite} "Hey!"
{Random_Nerd} Mythically, they exchange visiting cards and shake hands.
{Theresa} "We should stop near where we met the collie to check something."
{Ftiskrand} "Dante, we can find another dog without the Mike Cook memory and check what happen when Martyrs use his gift. So we can know how the causality work?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Hey, you. Bigger dog. How do you feel about Mike?"
{Random_Nerd} Shepherd: "About the same. Why?"
{DanteE} "Maybe go the other way, find a dog _with_ the memory and see what happens when we approach Mike"
{Ftiskrand} to Kite: "Look, this handle is to set the sound type for the horns"
{Theresa} (Martyrs is a chick, Dante.)
{Ftiskrand} "Eh, we can try both Dante"
{Brian} "Dante, we have one ..."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Two, actually."
{Kite} "Ooh! Where's the "chickadee" setting?"

• Ftiskrand point: "here"
  

{DanteE} "Ahem. Let's take Francis to Mike and see what happens."
{Ftiskrand} "Sure D!"
{Kite} "Right!"
{Random_Nerd} (Cut to the destination, or what?)

• Kite drives off!
  

{DanteE} "If it's some kind of ongoing effect--say, an attack--we might see something..."
{DanteE} (Sure)
{Kite} (Yes)
{Brian} (sure)
{Random_Nerd} You pull up in front of the abandoned building.
{Ftiskrand} (near Dante Mobile?)
{Random_Nerd} A vaguely corgi-like dog standing on the sidewalk salutes you.
{Random_Nerd} (Yeah, the dantemobile is parked around here.)
{DanteE} "Francis, Shepherd, tell us about Mike?"
{Random_Nerd} Shepherd: "He's right in there, can't you just ask him?"
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "Really? Cool. How's he doing?"
{Theresa} (We needed to be outside of the donut hole.)
{Ftiskrand} (IF this donut exist)
{Random_Nerd} (While driving through town, there was no apparent difference in their feelings or memories.)
{Ftiskrand} "well, let's meet him then"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Okay, I guess that tells us something. I just don't know what."
{DanteE} "He's in here..."
{Random_Nerd} The dogs wait for someone to open a door.

• Ftiskrand open the door
  

{DanteE} (heh)
{Brian} (right. Dogs)
{Ftiskrand} "well, tell us that the donut idea can be wrong"
{DanteE} "Or it's just not ongoing"
{Ftiskrand} "But if is not ongoing all things are mixed up then"
{Ftiskrand} "Wait, things _are_ mixed up one way or the other"
{Brian} "Maybe it's just not all dogs care as much."
{Brian} "But why is it in The Rules in the first place?"
{Ftiskrand} "uhm..."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "What gets me is that the dogs that don't care, seem to have forgotten, not to have never known."
{Ftiskrand} "Brian, what is the perceptual of dogs that remember?"
{Brian} "Yeah. I wonder if Memories has anything to do with this? Sam? Any Noble of Memories?"
{Ftiskrand} "But with dogs, is more instinct that memories, there is one Noble of Instinct, Sam?"
{DanteE} "Is it memories? Or something else, like Rules?"
{Brian} (what IS the percentage of dogs that remember The Rule with Mike Cook?)
{Random_Nerd} Sam: "Huh. That's a big one, but I don't think there's a Noble of it. If there is, I don't know about him. Um, let's see, /forgetting/ is a part of Lost Things, and you've met her..."
{Random_Nerd} (About thirty percent or so, right now.)
{Brian} "It's about 30 percent"
{DanteE} (So, is Francis meeting Mike?)
{Ftiskrand} "Ophaniel... can be involved..."
{Random_Nerd} (Mike's asleep, but Francis is attentively sniffing him.)
{DanteE} "Hang on, let's review.
{Ftiskrand} "Sure D"
{DanteE} "We've got Mike here, who's been a dog for 60 years, changing skin every few weeks...
{DanteE} "We've got the pack surrounding him, that's been breaking up...
{DanteE} "We've got a hundred million dogs who are interested in Mike's survival...
{Random_Nerd} The shepherd mutters the canine equivalent of "dirty hippie draft-dodgers."

• Ftiskrand change body 3 dogs that mimic the change body 'tween 2 and one that leave (can I?)
  

{DanteE} "Who basically aren't around here.
{Random_Nerd} (Hmm. What body changes do you want to make in the dogs?)
{DanteE} "We had Walter, on the moon, who felt he forgot something {X} ago...
{DanteE} "... and it would seem he's not alone with that."
{Brian} (30% of total dog population comes up with the same number that Dante did?)
{Ftiskrand} (mine from Ftisk into 3 dogs, 2 will mimic the change body thing one will cringe and walk away)
{Random_Nerd} (Pretty much, yeah. It's a fuzzy line, because some dogs only care a little, but the two miracles match up.)
{Brian} (ok.)
{DanteE} "Did I get everything?"
{Random_Nerd} (You want to turn Ftisk into three dogs?)
{Ftiskrand} "Ophaniel is connected to memory"
{Ftiskrand} (yep RN, 3 dogs)
{Ftiskrand} (but was for give a visual aid to Dante recap, now is late)
{DanteE} (Well, just a hologram projector would work, then. :)
{Ftiskrand} (this is more flashy AND help me discover my gift limits)
{Random_Nerd} (Hmm. I don't think you can turn into multiple bodies at once, unless they're physically connected.)
{Theresa} (Oh, no, not siamese dogs...)
{Ftiskrand} (oh, ok then if them share a link between them I can do the trick? )
{Ftiskrand} (like SnowWhite and all 7 dwarfs keeping each other’s hand?)
{DanteE} "OK, logic...
{DanteE} "For 130 million dogs to be involved, the Imperator of Dogs would almost have to be involved... right?"
{Ftiskrand} "or an imperator in general or... a Word of command can pull this of?"
{Kite} "It's a high possibility."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "He'd have to at least know about it. This is way too large-scale and specific for him to utterly ignore."
{Brian} "I guess that's our next step?"
{Kite} "Unless there's also an Imperator of Domesticated Animals."
{Brian} "Well, our next step is to take Francis back, but after that."
{DanteE} "Now what we know about Mike... 60 years ago he merged with a dog, in order to not freeze."
{DanteE} "... thing is, there was something special about him before that."
{Ftiskrand} "We can split and go to the two imperators" (Ophaniel and the Hound's one)
{DanteE} "My Divination kinda showed that."
{Brian} "... is it possible that he could have been a Noble and is now no longer? Well, not really?"
{Random_Nerd} Sam: "I think that can happen, but it's really rare."
{DanteE} "He'd be brighter to the Sight, I think."
{Ftiskrand} "Oh, there is a rite that stripe down a Noble of his power"
{Theresa} "I wouldn't think he'd survive."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs gets out of the car and paces.
{Ftiskrand} (oh, right)

• Ftiskrand get out too
  

{DanteE} "Supposedly, if you get renounced you go insane... no, that's Anchors..."
{DanteE} "We're missing something, damn it."
{Brian} "So, it could happen?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Well, I think I've hit a wall, right now. I'm going to go home and sleep. Maybe after that I'll think of something."
{DanteE} "Hm... Ophaniel is Lost Things, maybe she knows about the missing packmates."
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs: "Give me a prayer if you find anything out, okay?"
{Brian} "Will do"
{Ftiskrand} "uhm... we remain with the talk to imperators option.."
{DanteE} "Will do."
{Theresa} "Sure, Martyrs. Thanks for the help."
{Ftiskrand} "Bye Martyrs, nice to meet you!"
{Brian} "I'm going to be like Elan and walk in that direction -or, rather, talk to an Imperator- until I trip over the Main Plot."
{DanteE} (We did the formal introductions, right?)
{Ftiskrand} (yep last session)
{Ftiskrand} "Ah, this is my flower" lc a mechanic one for Martyrs
{Kite} "Elan?"
{Brian} "Order of the Stick. Sorry, forgot to say that."
{DanteE} what's Francis doing?
{Ftiskrand} "Order of the stick what?"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs takes the flower and nods at Ftisk.
{Brian} "Look it up online"
{Random_Nerd} Martyrs waves and walks off.
{DanteE} "Don't forget Kite's flower..."
{Theresa} *poof*
{Kite} "It's so shiny!"
{Ftiskrand} "oh, ok, looking pup..." *pause* *giggle*
{Random_Nerd} Sam fumbles through his pockets, until he pulls out a cellular phone.

• DanteE goes to talk to Francis...
  

{Random_Nerd} He has a brief conversation in a dionyl language about setting up a meeting with Jeremiah of the Light.
{Brian} (would a Gift of Destruction of DA work? ... and not District Attorney, the caused-by-Miracles one)
{Random_Nerd} Francis is lying down next to Mike.
{Random_Nerd} (Yeah, you could make such a Gift.)
{Ftiskrand} (sleeping?)
{DanteE} to Francis: "Is he what you expected?"
{Theresa} (Brain not working...)
{Random_Nerd} (We'd have to work out the details, but there's nothing intrinsically problematic about it.)\
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "Yeah, that's him. I'd know him anywhere."
{DanteE} "Did you meet him before?"
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "Nope. I didn't even know he was in the area."
{DanteE} "... then how do you know him?"
{Theresa} (This is going to get another Look, isn't it?)
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "Look, clearly we're not communicating here. If I was to ask you how you knew you had testicles, when you were first introduced to them, and if you'd know 'em if you saw them, you'd think I was crazy, right?"
{DanteE} "Hm.
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "It's like that."
{DanteE} "Anyway... let's get you home before your owner misses you."
{Theresa} (But you wouldn't be surprised if Dante licked them. _We_ would be surprised, but dogs wouldn't.)
{Ftiskrand} "But him is a _dog_ not your testicles!"
{Theresa} (Ftisk doesn't have testicles!)
{Random_Nerd} (He could if he wanted to.)
{DanteE} (We don't know that...)
{Theresa} (Well, yes and they could be great big brass ones.)
{Ftiskrand} (snails have a sack and an extensible tube but not testicles)
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "But that's what it's like. You don't want to have somebody bite you hard right where you'd feel it, and you don't want to let anything happen to Mike Cook."
{DanteE} "You really consider him a part of you?"
{Ftiskrand} "uhm... so Mike Cook is your testicles?"
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "No, but..."
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "Okay. Say it's a baby. If you saw a baby, you'd know it was a baby, right?"
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "And if you saw that something was going to happen to a baby, you'd do something about it."
{Ftiskrand} "ok"
{Ftiskrand} "uhm... maybe?"
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "No offense, but you guys are some creepy dudes."

• Ftiskrand bow "thank you"
  

{Brian} "We're not dogs."
{Brian} "We just don't Get It"
{DanteE} "We're not dogs.
{DanteE} (jinx)
{Kite} "No offense taken."
{Brian} "(we get that much...)" {-- audible parentheses.
{Brian} (I should take a Gift of audible punctuation.)
{DanteE} "Anyway... come on, we're taking you home."
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "Thanks."
{Random_Nerd} Shepherd: "Hey, I'm staying. Gotta keep an eye on him.
{Random_Nerd} Francis: "Make sure he's safe, okay?"
{Random_Nerd} Shepherd: "Working on it."
{Ftiskrand} "I remain too, so if you wanna go, well, go"
{DanteE} "OK, everyone go where you intend to go. Guys, want to go visit Ophaniel and Walter?"
{Random_Nerd} Shepherd goes and gnaws on some beef.
{DanteE} "Sounds like it'll be a while before we see Jeremiah."
{Ftiskrand} "Why we don't split, some to Ophaniel , some to Jeremiah?"
{Random_Nerd} Sam: "Sorry it's taking a while, but the guy doesn't even have a chancel. He's... probably somewhere on Earth. Probably."
{Theresa} "Well, that's a least a small bit of good luck."
{Ftiskrand} "ohhhh, then this increase the possibility he was next to Mike when 'the thing' happened"
{Kite} "Let's just all talk with Ophaniel, then?"
{DanteE} "Hm..." (Anyone gong 'Holy crap, that's an Imperator!' on Earth?)
{Ftiskrand} (but there are more than one loose on Earth... I believe)
{Random_Nerd} (Yeah.)
{Random_Nerd} Sam: "So, it's a matter of contacting someone with no forwarding address, no known location, and no known appearance. We can /do/ it. We're good at this stuff. But it's gonna take time."
{Theresa} (Not really. They'd have to roam around a bit to figure out where they want a Chancel.)
{Brian} "Anyone know his floral design? Or does praying to Imperators not work the same?"
{Random_Nerd} (And bear in mind, there are a lot of chancelless imperators. They just don't generally move in the same social circles that you do.)
{Random_Nerd} Sam: "William might. If he has one."
{Random_Nerd} (Should we call it a night, and have you guys go see Ophaniel and Walter next time?)
{Brian} (sounds good)
{Ftiskrand} (sure)
{Theresa} (Sounds good to me.)
{DanteE} (OK. Assuming there's no problem getting Francis home. :) )
{Random_Nerd} (Nah. That's trivial.)

=-= YOU are now known as Angelo
=-= Brian is now known as lazarus
{lazarus} we make trivial things hard, and hard things impossible!
=-= DanteE is now known as Knockwood
{Angelo} good session!
{lazarus} (/perl backwards)
{Knockwood} What the heck are we missing? :)
{Random_Nerd} Hmm...
{Random_Nerd} Well, how do you conceptualize the way dogs feel about Mike?
{Knockwood} Seems to be ... well, not an alpha...
{Angelo} well from last analogy like mike is a piece of said dog?
{lazarus} part of it I'm thinking is kind of like a grandfather-figure. Like, "oh, I should check up on granddad, see if he's still ok"
{lazarus} but it breaks down quite quickly, that one
{lazarus} perhaps a long lost friend.
{lazarus} ...
{lazarus} dog's best friend?
{Knockwood} Yeah, they'd have let him go by now...
=-= Kite is now known as Verithe
{Knockwood} It seems that _someone_ has rewritten dogs' instincts to include 'Keep Mike Alive'
{Random_Nerd} And bear in mind, dogs have no magical way to see if he's doing okay.
{Random_Nerd} They'd only even know he was in trouble if they saw him or met a dog who'd seen him.
{Angelo} like Knock said, but can be a spreading thing?
{lazarus} but they seem to have a magical way of /keeping/ him alive.
=-= Theresa is now known as BethE
{Knockwood} but there's 130 million dogs interested in keeping Mike alive...
{Angelo} like the change to dog instincts with a contagion property? 2 dogs meet then the first pass the Mike instinct to the other?
{Angelo} yes but there have been 60 years of spreading time
{Knockwood} .... was Mike the former Power of Dogs?
{Verithe} I imagine that dogs instinctively know that they need to keep Mike alive, but they generally assume he's okay. A sort of "No news is good news."
{lazarus} kwd: you stole my question! :p
{lazarus} I suspect he wasn't, but RN's twisted enough that it's possible.
{Knockwood} what's the distribution of the interested dogs?
{Random_Nerd} Fairly randomly spread around where dogs are, except for the "donut" shape you noticed.
{Knockwood} well, it helps that I've been looking over In Nomine, and thinking of Mike as one of their ... ah ...
{Random_Nerd} Word-bound?
{Knockwood} ... what were those former Angels who got their Celestial forces beat out of them?
{Random_Nerd} Oh, them.
{Random_Nerd} Remnants?
{lazarus} will talking to Imperator of Hounds help us understand what's going on?
{Knockwood} That's it
{Random_Nerd} I imagine it will.
{Knockwood} what about Ophaniel?
{Random_Nerd} Honestly, my ability to predict how you guys interacting with NPCs will go, and what you'll conclude, is at "monkey throwing darts at a board with outcomes written in different spaces" territory.
{Angelo} nice visual!
{lazarus} "purple monkey dishwasher"?
{Knockwood} that's 3 times I've seen that today...
{lazarus} :p
{Verithe} Snowflake light?
{lazarus} I think I'm going to head out for a bit, let Sara know Boots came home from his washroom jaunt, and maybe stop the two cats staring at each other by startling them. One of these days Boots'll just get bored of Bittersweet ... that'll be an interesting day.
{lazarus} g'night everyone!
{Knockwood} g'night laz
{Random_Nerd} So, everyone's enjoying the "weird enigma" sort of plot?
{Verithe} Take care
{Random_Nerd} I wasn't sure if it'd be too frustrating.
{--| lazarus has left #Nobilis
{Verithe} Yes. :)
{Knockwood} Assuming we get all the clues. :)
{Angelo} well, If used her and there, not always.. definitely yes.
{BethE} We were not put in this game to 'get it'?
{Random_Nerd} If it helps, you guys have figured most of it out already.
{Knockwood} yeah, but we've also 'figured out' about 20 goofy alternatives
{Angelo} we can try all them at once and see what happen
{Angelo} ah, btw, this group _never_ split up... why?
{Random_Nerd} Never split up the party, man!
{Angelo} bah, only good things happen when we split up.
{Knockwood} too many killer dungeons
{Angelo} :-P
{Angelo} what? When was last time you see a _dungeon_ in a RN game?
{BethE} Well, I'm off to bed. Good game and good night, all! *HUGS*
{Angelo} Night Beth!
{Knockwood} plus, we already do enough splitting up with so many players guarding the horses
{Verithe} We haven't had much reason to split up, yet.
{Knockwood} g'night Beth
{Verithe} Take care!
{BethE} I fully expect some sort of kinky S&M dungeon in this game. I'm not sure why.
{Random_Nerd} Oh, I'm totally going to have to figure out a way to have you guys fighting orcs and displacer beasts in 20x20 rooms, now.

{Verithe} Haha
{Angelo} and the mandatory warforged? what is the mandatory warforged?
{Random_Nerd} That'd be Ftisk, obviously.
{Angelo} rotfl!
{Random_Nerd} And you're the Flail Snail too, of course.
