 --]| YOU (Angelo) have joined #nobilis
[Random_Nerd] First, if Brian's changeable nature gets him in trouble, remind me, and I'll give you some MPs.
[Lazarus] (which is why I have it as an Affliction and not a Bond - Affliction feels more "make this into trouble!" and Bonds feel more "I make this help me!")
[Angelo] Hi picciotti!
[Random_Nerd] Second, if someone tries to use miracles to set Brian's outlook or personality in some specific way, the affliction would probably automatically try to shake it off pretty soon.
[Verithe] Hi, Angelo!
[Random_Nerd] That's not quite how the distinction works.
[Lazarus] hey Angelo!
[Random_Nerd] Bonds are things about how what you do, or how you do things.
[Lazarus] I know it's not quite, but it is part of it.
[Random_Nerd] Afflitions are things about you that are true even when you aren't thinking about them.
[Random_Nerd] They can get you out of trouble as easily as into it.
[Lazarus] (great line from Dollhouse: "did I just lose an argument to a Doll?")
[Random_Nerd] Say, "Affliction: Things Just Tend To Work Out Okay For Me (3)"
[Random_Nerd] It'd automatically act to remove minor hindrances and headaches from your life.
[Lazarus] true.
[Lazarus] Anyway, Brian's flux thing is a minor Affliction (I think only 1 point). I just find it an amusing one. The Chancelfolk one ... that comes up a lot :D
[BethE] Hi Angelo! *HUG*
[Random_Nerd] Yeah, that really works better as an Affliction than as a Gift, doesn't it?
[Lazarus] it really, really does. Especially combined with a Bond along the same lines (I /think/ I put one in)
[Random_Nerd] Bond: Protect the Chancelfolk
[Random_Nerd] That one?
[Lazarus] I think that's the one. I can't quite remember how everything ended up :p
[Random_Nerd] Oh, Verithe, I had a question. What do you think of Gil so far?
[Verithe] I like Gil, so far. :)
[Lazarus] wow, not only do I have a headache, I feel like I've been hit by a freight train. ]_]
[BethE] So, let's see...last time, Brian claimed Sam?
[Angelo] @RN: Ftisk struggle question
[Random_Nerd] Yeah.
[BethE] Laz - awww.  :(
[Random_Nerd] Yes?
[Lazarus] That certainly happened.
[Angelo] Ok, I know why I leaved the struggle in mid air instead of closing it
[Random_Nerd] Oh? Why?
[Angelo] was because I want to see again Conrad resurface and closing a struggle will mean Ftisk came to term with him.
[Random_Nerd] Ah, okay.
[Angelo] If is there a way to have Conrad come out again and close the struggle I'll can be ok with that way
--]| Knockwood (~chatzilla@MagicStar-BF74FBDE.dhcp.reno.nv.charter.com) has joined #nobilis
[Knockwood] Hi guys
[Random_Nerd] Hey, Knock.
[Lazarus] hey kwd
[Angelo] Hi Knock!
[Angelo] ... an affliction can do the trick? like ]Conrad try to take over each time I'm weak[ for some definition of weak or something like that?
[Random_Nerd] Okay, when we last left Our Heroes, they were going to go ahead of Caesar to Locus Barakiel, to get them ready.
[Verithe] Hi, Knock!
[Random_Nerd] That could work as an Affliction, yes.
[BethE] Hi Knock!
[Angelo] good to know!
[BethE] Well, at least we can break Locus Barakiel into the Excrucian thing gently. See, here's Ftisk, who's only _part_ Excrucian...and we've invited over someone who kinda used to be a whole one...
[Verithe] Maybe...
[Angelo] :-)
[Lazarus] I can't remember why we invited him to Locus Barakiel
[Angelo] Well Listening to Caesar let you think that Ftisk and him can be as excrucian as they want to be!
[Verithe] Duty
[BethE] Because someone's been messing with Duty in his chancel and he wants to warn/work on it.
[Lazarus] right.
[Knockwood] and in theory he can help up get into their heads
[Random_Nerd] "See, I've got a /friend/ who maybe used to be an Excrucian..."
[Knockwood] Not in his Chancel, in London
[Lazarus] woah. yeah. Freight trained.
[Random_Nerd] Ready to go?
[Angelo] Yep!
=-= YOU are now known as Ftisk
[Lazarus] I'm probably only good for a half hour or an hour or so. But I'm ready for now.
[Verithe] Should you drink a glass of water and lie down, Laz?
=-= Lazarus is now known as Brian
=-= BethE is now known as Theresa
=-= Verithe is now known as Kite
[Theresa] Well, getting an Anchor takes a bunch out of you...
=-= Knockwood is now known as DanteE
[Random_Nerd] ____________START_______________

  • Kite walks over to a shadow.

[Random_Nerd] At the barbed iron gates of Locus Barakiel, two of the guards look at you.
[Random_Nerd] Left Guard: "Who goes there! What brings you to the gates of..."
[Random_Nerd] Right Guard: "Yeah, yeah. I'll go see if Shadows is busy."

  • Ftisk wave

[DanteE] (Didn't we call ahead?)
[Kite] to shadow: "I'm sorry, the Voice. I'm afraid I can't give you what you're looking for. Dante, however, would like to make you an offer some time, if you're willing."

  • Kite rejoins group.

[Random_Nerd] (If so, what did you say, and to who?)
[Brian] (I think they have a standard greeting, anyway)
[DanteE] (Well, we could easily pray to Consequences or Shadows...)
[Theresa] (They remember us! ^^ )
[Brian] (Shadows /is/ our normal playmate :p)
[Random_Nerd] (I just need to know what you'd have said, and to who, so I can take it into account.)
[Brian] (much to many people's chagrin)
[Brian] (let's let Dante do the talking?)
[Random_Nerd] (You guys are a bad influence on him!)
[Ftisk] (who ?)
[Theresa] (Hey _last time_, we showed up with the giant bunny at this gate.)
[Ftisk] (Ftisk whistle!)
[Kite] ("We're gonna jump around in the ball lab and play Nobles and Excrucians!")
[Theresa] (Well, it wasn't _our_ fault that Ftisk made Shadows want to drink.)
[Theresa] (Not the last time we were here, just the last time we used the gate.)
[Ftisk] ( @T: lol!)
[Random_Nerd] (So, did you call ahead, and if so, who did you call, and what did you say?)
[DanteE] (Hm... we probably shot off a quick prayer to both, saying we have info about an attack on Duty.)
[DanteE] (Since we don't really know Duty)
[Random_Nerd] (Okay. Will you have mentioned the Caesar thing, or did you want to say that part in person?)
[DanteE] (in person)
[Random_Nerd] (Okay.)
[Ftisk] (in person is ok)
[Random_Nerd] As the second guard goes off, Jeeves meets him in the front hall and gestures meaningfully. He nods.
[Random_Nerd] Guard: "Follow the... the... uh... Follow Jeeves."
[Theresa] "Hello Jeeves!" *waves* *thanks the guards*

  • Ftisk fly to Jeeves and land on his back

[Kite] "Jeeves!"
[Brian] *bows to the guards, and follows Jeeves*

  • Kite flounces after.

[Ftisk] "HI!!! Jeves!"
[Brian] "Jeeves. How's it going?"
[Random_Nerd] Jeeves lifts up his front two pseudopods, and wiggles them in the air like snail eyes.

  • Ftisk pat pat him

[Random_Nerd] Then he starts trotting along the hall.

  • Ftisk will pinch Jeeves cheeks if him have one

[Random_Nerd] After a little while, he's brought you to a room in a part of the castle you haven't seen before.
[Random_Nerd] A nondescript and undescribable man in an old fashioned dressing gown sits at a desk, going through a stack of papers.

  • Ftisk land and change into spiderFtisk

[DanteE] "William, what's protocol for telling a fellow Noble that they're under attack?"
[Random_Nerd] William: "Depends on how urgent it is."

  • Kite coughs

[Random_Nerd] William: "It ranges from composing a lengthy poem that vaguely hints at the concept, to yelling 'DUCK!'"

  • Ftisk weave a "Duty... You are under attach spidernet in a corner"

[Theresa] "Hello, Duty. May we interrupt your work for a moment?"
[DanteE] "Any news about Mike Cook?"
[Random_Nerd] (Who were you asking? William?)
[DanteE] (yes)
[Brian] "... sure, let's all inundate the new guy with us all talking over one another"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "As you seem to know some things about my situation that I don't, I can make the time. Thank you for coming."
[Ftisk] "I wrote not talk!"

  • Ftisk pout to Brian

=-= YOU are now known as spiderFtisk
[DanteE] (Ftisk could do a display screen, right?)
[spiderFtisk] (yes!)
[Random_Nerd] William: "According to the London office, he's been able to assemble a much larger pack, and they're starting to spread the word to the other dogs of what he's doing."

  • spiderFtisk make a display screen just in case...
  • Theresa bows her head. "Thank you. We wished to inform you of a possible attack on your Domain that we have witnessed as well as to inform you of a Dionyl Power who has also observed some harm being done."

[DanteE] to Duty: "Do you know about Mike Cook?"
[Random_Nerd] William: "As I understand it, he's trying to set up some kind of... canine parliament of some sort."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "I think I've heard the name. The new Power of Hounds, isn't it?"
[DanteE] "Yes, as of (how long?)"
[Brian] "Sort of, anyway."
[DanteE] "Ftisk, show him Mike?"
[Random_Nerd] William: "Not technically speaking, but that's the role he's filling right now, as there isn't a chancel."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Ah, yes, that sounds right. Thank you."

  • spiderFtisk show him

[Random_Nerd] Duty: "But what does he have to do with the attack on my Estate?"
[DanteE] "That's how we met...
[Brian] "Dogs had a kind of duty to protect Mike Cook, which they had forgot about."
[DanteE] "Basically, Dogs had a 'directive' to protect him no matter what...
[Brian] "Or perhaps never knew about and then figured that they forgot and were bad dogs because of it. Not quite sure."
[DanteE] "_except_ for the ones near him.

  • spiderFtisk show a donut on the display to show the area that forgot with circle inside that remember and outside that remember too

[Kite] "We didn't quite realize the scope of it, however, until we discovered a similar situation on Dionyl."
[DanteE] "Something made them 'forget' their Duty."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "And, let me guess, their sense of duty just spontaneously fell to pieces for no apparent reason?"
[spiderFtisk] "Yep!"
[Brian] "Yeah, pretty much."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Okay, that goes on the list."
[Brian] "And, we have a Prophecy about this, too."

  • spiderFtisk nod nod

[Brian] "Something about the First King."
[DanteE] "Disappeared... but we witnessed one dog suddenly remember it, which suggest there's something actively suppressing it."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "The First King?"
[DanteE] "Ftisk, show him Walter's reaction."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "You have a line on the /cause/?"

  • spiderFtisk show on display

[Brian] "Um. Yeah. The disintegrating of Duty heralds the arrival of the First King."
[Brian] "A Voldemort of a sort"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "How do you know this? What's your source of information?"
[Brian] "Prophecy. With a capital P."
[DanteE] (Do we know IC about JbJ and the barkeep?)
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "With a capital J, a lower case B, and a capital J?"
[Random_Nerd] (Don't you?)
[DanteE] "Ftisk, show him the barkeeper's prophecy."

  • spiderFtisk nod and show

[Brian] "Like, one of those 'bartender who witnessed Ftisk change form ceases to be the bartender for a little bit while he spouts off a Prophecy, then becomes bartender with DA' type Prophecies."
[Brian] (erm. Can't remember if that would fall afoul of any of the Laws, actually. Don't think so, but perhaps.)
[Kite] "Even though Ftisk is missing [whatever he lost when tossing that dwarf into pigeon], that is not how we're spelling Prophecy, today."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "That does sound like Jan ben Jan's methodology. And say what you will about him, he's reliable."
[spiderFtisk] "I'm special and all lost their mind looking at me! :-P "
[DanteE] (Um, well, we did just admit we 'harmed' the barkeep...)
[spiderFtisk] (me not just you)
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Normally, I'd just call him up and ask if it was really him, but I don't really have much I can spare to sacrifice for an answer."
[Brian] (but, on the other hand, the barkeep is a mortal, so the Laws don't really apply fully...)
[Random_Nerd] (Oh, they do.)
[DanteE] "Yeah, but we didn't connect everything until Caesar-nee-Sakharoth-or-Suebi connected it for us."
[Random_Nerd] (Nobles, mortals, excrucians, pretty much everything smarter than a squirrel.)
[Kite] (But, for all Duty knows, he was a Bad Man)
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "...you lost me."
[Theresa] (You really have it out for squirrels...)
[Brian] "ALSO the First King - like Voldemort, as I said - is a He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named. I /think/ you are aware of this entity?"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "I've heard rumors, yes."
[DanteE] "He's the Domination (maybe) who returned to Dionyl from Outside."
[spiderFtisk] "hey he is maybe excru too!"
[DanteE] "As for the villain of the piece... you know the Excrucian nicknamed Shirk?"
[spiderFtisk] "And that is _not_ a bad think! Look a t me!"
[Kite] "But he doesn't believe he is."
[Brian] (the Law I am specifically referring to is the "Nobles are above Mortals" business - harm none who are innocent, yes, but Mortals are a level lower ... it seems like greyish area. As intended, I suspect)
[Kite] "Er...as in Caesar doesn't believe himself to be an Excrucian."
[Theresa] (Entropy's laws are just to have something to hang you with when he wants.)
[Brian] "By the way. All this is to lead up to saying 'Caesar wants to meet you.'"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Our copies of the Book of Spite and the Book of Purity have been... damaged... but I did read part of them while we still had them."
[spiderFtisk] "What these books are?"

  • spiderFtisk weave a big ? on another corner

[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Semi-theoretical works on dealing with spiritual corruption, with particular emphasis on the Four Kings."
[Theresa] "Interesting."
[DanteE] "semi-theoretical?"
[Kite] "There's FOUR of them?"
[spiderFtisk] "Wow! Can I have a peek?"
[Brian] "Yeah, well, I think the Prophecy went on to say that the other Kings are coming, but I can't remember any details about the other three Horsemen."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Well, there was some work on practical applications, but that was less interesting to me."
[Theresa] "Ftisk, he said that he saw them while they had them, implying they no longer do."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Our copies were destroyed in an unfortunate, ah... you've met my Imperator, yes?"
[Brian] "So maybe I guess it just implied that there are more?"
[DanteE] (What did they say about the other 3 kings? I only remember the one...)
[Brian] "Um, yeah. I remember him."
[Theresa] (Ah, so, destroyed in a temper tantrum?)

  • Kite ponders...

[Random_Nerd] (There's four of them.)
[Kite] "Do you know if there are any other copies somewhere else?"

  • spiderFtisk is disappointed ... but just a little bit!

[Random_Nerd] (Shirk, Failure, Treason, and Shame.)
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Probably. I'll have to track one down, to see if there's anything I can use."
[DanteE] (ah... we hadn't heard the other 3 names)
[Brian] "Ftisk, you're Data, right? Do books fall under Data?"
[spiderFtisk] "Yep!"
[Kite] ("Ftisk! You fight Shame while I fight Failure!)
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "You say this Caesar told you something about these attacks?"
[Theresa] (...those names make so much sense now...)
[DanteE] (just what I was thinking. :) )
[Theresa] (True! Ftisk has no shame!)
[Brian] (I also don't remember if our prophecy had more than one, but I remember thinking four, and First implies at least a Second...)
[Brian] "Could you just summon up a new copy of the books?"
[DanteE] (ISTR only one is coming)

  • spiderFtisk try to summon one!

[Random_Nerd] (Ftisk, when you check to see where they are, you find two things.)
[spiderFtisk] (well the others three can be late!)
[Random_Nerd] (First, pretty much all the copies are in the hands of Nobles or Imperators.)
[Kite] "The loss of Duty among his faithful has been causing Caesar some problems."
[DanteE] (makes sense)
[Random_Nerd] (And second, they aren't all the same. There's a lot of variation between copies.)
[spiderFtisk] (cool!)
[Kite] (We must track down and read them aaaaaaaaaaall!)
[spiderFtisk] "Well all copies are on Powers or Imps hands, and also these copies varies a lot from one to the other!"
[DanteE] (Hm... can Ftisk do an analysis of the text, specifically the changes?)
[spiderFtisk] (Can I make a copy of each one?)
[Brian] (... this reminds me that it has been so long since I've read the Book of the Revelation ... I think there was to be a gap between all of the Horsemen in the Christian Apocalypse?)
[spiderFtisk] (major creation of them?)
[Random_Nerd] (Yes, at least of the ones that you can find. You get the feeling that at least some are hidden or protected from your divination.)
[Random_Nerd] (Okay, one copy of each major variant text you can locate?)
[spiderFtisk] (then the mCreation for the ones I can reach. Yes!)
[Kite] (All on one, handy DVD!?)
[spiderFtisk] (usb key kite!)
[Brian] "Ftisk, can you also compare and contrast with the Book of the Revelation in the Christian Bible? There's at least some parallels..."
[DanteE] (or an iPad version. :) )
[spiderFtisk] (indexed maybe!)
[Kite] (That is much wiser, Ftisk!)
[spiderFtisk] "Sure! why not, we do one thing, better do it well!"
[Brian] (perhaps with folded text for the variations?)
[Random_Nerd] Both books are, by normal standards, fairly short. Print versions would probably be only eighty or ninety pages, for the longest versions.
[DanteE] (and we can analyze the variations)
[spiderFtisk] (so to the counter are 2dmp? right? I have Data 4)
[Brian] "I don't know any other faith's holy books well enough, but I know that many prophets were actually Divinely inspired. Never quite got down right, though."
[Random_Nerd] (To the counter?)
[DanteE] (So is it a stack of magazines or a chip?)

  • Kite realizes he is still in Dionyl form and changes back to bird.

[spiderFtisk] (was a way to say and the grand total is... but maybe was lost in translation))
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "We can leave the comparative prophecy for later. If a King of the Cursed Domains is coming, I have work to do.)
[Random_Nerd] (You can get copies of all the versions you can locate with a level 4 miracle of Data.)
[spiderFtisk] ( cassa/ITA= counter/ENG, checkout/ENG and so on)
[Random_Nerd] (Comparing them will take time and thought, as well as a miracle.)
[Kite] "Ftisk, I think I would like to take lessons from you in turning into Dionyl at will, some time."
[DanteE] "Considering he's coming for us, so do we. And we should work together.
[Brian] "We're willing to help out. And introduce you to Caesar, who would be big help."
[DanteE] "Not to mention help determine what's going on in London."
[Random_Nerd] And on that note, something odd and rather disconcerting happens.
[Brian] (uh oh.)
[DanteE] (oh, the usual. :) )
[Random_Nerd] First, everything, even your own bodies, seems to disappear for a moment, leaving only Caesar holding a white mask, standing in the void.

  • Kite ducks and covers.

[spiderFtisk] @Kite: "sure whenever you want and I'm not busy trying to sneak in Dante's pants drawer"
[Random_Nerd] Then, bit by bit, the room and your bodies come together, as if assembled from a box of spare parts.
[Kite] "Ooh. That was tingly!"
[Random_Nerd] In only a few seconds, everything is as it was, save that Caesar is standing there, holding a white mask with dark eyes.
[Brian] "Duty, meet Caesar."
[Brian] "Caesar, Duty."
[DanteE] "... or he could just come here. Hello."
[Brian] "Also, please never make me disintegrate again. It is a bit disconcerting."
[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "I have a gift for you. I understand that you, like most, dislike Strategists."
[spiderFtisk] "Wow!!! again! Again!"
[Random_Nerd] He places the mask on the desk.
[Brian] "On the other hand, I suspect being integrated would also feel weird."

  • spiderFtisk fly and sniff the mask!"

[Brian] "What IS the integral of a Noble?" /babbling now
[Theresa] (Your numbers are often integrated, Brian.)
[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "Earlier this month, one stopped by my kingdom to try to entice me. This was made from his skull, and these" *points at the dark spheres in the sockets* "were his eyes."
[DanteE] "Steady, Brian."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Ah..."

  • spiderFtisk poke the mask too!"

[Theresa] "Exquisite work."

  • Kite blinks.

[Random_Nerd] William steps up, opens his mouth, looks at the mask again, and closes his mouth.
[Brian] "Ftisk, can I try som ... wait, I'm not actually Math. Damnit."
[Theresa] (Now see, I'm glad he didn't give that to us, because I have _nothing_ to compare to that.)
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "I... understand you have been experiencing some of the attacks on my Estate."
[Theresa] "Brian, focus. Excrucian skull. Pretty, yes?"

  • spiderFtisk try the mask

[Brian] "Eh. It's a skull. You see plenty of masks like that on Bleach. It is kinda neat to see in person, though."
[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "Of course, part of his body was able to crawl away, but I doubt he'll be visiting again any time soon."
[spiderFtisk] "Boooo!!! I'm a bad baaaad Stategist! ... lol"
[Brian] "Attacking without a head isn't very fun."
[Kite] (I read, "...on the Beach" and was very confused)
[Brian] "Or so I imagine."
[Brian] (hee.)
[Random_Nerd] From the back, the eyes are like dark goggles, with the occasional star drifting across them.

  • DanteE looks through the eyes...

[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "At any rate, some of my followers have had their discipline and faithfulness eroded by some force I do not understand."
[Random_Nerd] The stars in the dark eyes and the stars in Ftisk's own eye match up perfectly.

  • spiderFtisk put down the mask

[spiderFtisk] "wow! seem like a windows on the same star sky"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "I will have to have it displayed in the art gallery, sir."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Now, down to business. How do we fight a King?" He turns to Dante "You said he was 'coming'?"
[DanteE] "You heard the bartender."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Hmm. The most obvious approach is to patch up Duty while he's on his way, and then kill him when he comes."
[DanteE] "And when we accidentally summoned Attaris--and, uh, wrecked your place, sorry about that--she said the endgame starts (when).
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Usually Strategists... which he /may/ be... don't do us the courtesy of showing up in person."
[Random_Nerd] He glances at the mask for a moment.
[DanteE] "These are strange times. I presume you heard about the attack on Chancel Jaris?"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "On the day the Warmains went crazy?"
[DanteE] to William: "What's the latest on her, by the way?"
[Random_Nerd] Caesar shifts, and for a moment he actually seems uneasy.
[DanteE] "Right. That's when Caesar here reappeared."
[Random_Nerd] William: "Nearly done healing, as I understand."
[DanteE] to William: "How's her Chancel?"
[spiderFtisk] "Fisk folk seem tastefull ..."
[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "I am not an insane Warmain. I have decided that this is so."
[Kite] "Tasty..."
[spiderFtisk] "Fishy..."
[Theresa] (Fine distinction there.)
[Random_Nerd] William: "I don't know off the top of my head, but I have a report on it on my desk back home."
[Theresa] (And also, good way to avoid insult.)
[Kite] "Delicious..."
[spiderFtisk] "Shining a bit too..."
[DanteE] "Kite!"
[Kite] "Wha- Yes?"

  • spiderFtisk giggle

[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Well, I find it easier to believe that a Warmain would side with us than that one would engage in a long and elaborate con with no clear purpose, so that's good enough for me."
[DanteE] (Have you been eating our guests?)
[spiderFtisk] (no I was playing on Kite)
[DanteE] (That was to Kite)
[Kite] ("No! I would never! I just glance every now and again and imagine...maybe lick.")
[spiderFtisk] (but if someone volunteers Ftisk would take a bit )
[Theresa] (Ftisk would also offer to do the licking.)
[Random_Nerd] Duty, to Caesar: "So, what's your stake in this?"
[spiderFtisk] @Theresa: true!
[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "Shirk, if it's him doing it, has been acting on my people. This, I will not allow."
[Brian] (sorry, had a phone call. Also, afk a bit to make some iced tea for Sara)
[DanteE] "Also acting on English dogs. That, I think, is ongoing."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "I'll have to lend some resources to the new de facto Hounds, if he's helping with that."
[Brian] (b)
[spiderFtisk] "Resource like some peoples or a load of meat?"
[DanteE] "We should all get together...
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "This is an odd attack. All the ones I've experienced before were... focused. A particular paradox, or a direct attack, on part of my Estate."
[Kite] "And the occasional Moon dog."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "This is different. It's like the whole thing is just fraying, everywhere at once."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "I may /have/ to go to Jan, if he understands this."
[DanteE] "... unless we just didn't catch the original strike, and this is after it's had an effect."

  • spiderFtisk whispering to Duty "JbJ like eyes..."

[Random_Nerd] Duty: "If there was a conventional attack, I would have felt it."
[Brian] "It's like your Domain is just ... falling apart."

  • DanteE does a Div-Courage in that area...

[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Yes. It's not like being knifed in the kidneys, it's like getting sick."
[Kite] "For your sake, I hope Jan ben Jan doesn't require something too big."
[Random_Nerd] Which area?
[DanteE] (London. Just got a bad idea...)
[Brian] "It's not really like getting sick, so much as ... old age."
[Theresa] "Not quite like a cancer, more like a getting older..."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "He will. This is big."
[Brian] (jinx)
[DanteE] "Unless... it wasn't _Duty_ per se that was hit.
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "But if I have to, I have to."
[DanteE] "Maybe something close to Duty, and this got caught up in the effect."
[spiderFtisk] "Like what?"
[Random_Nerd] Dante, you don't feel as much courage as there /should/ be.
[spiderFtisk] (brb)
[Brian] "Sam, have there been any reported Estates just ... falling apart before?"
[DanteE] "... like Courage."
[Random_Nerd] It's odd. People who /should/ be brave, firefighters and returned war heroes and so forth, just... don't, not as much as they should.
[DanteE] "How long did Mike and his pack say this was going on?"
[Random_Nerd] Sam: "Falling apart. Spontaneously?"
[Theresa] (Uh-oh...)
[Brian] "perhaps spontaneously. Like a human body shutting down after living too long."
[Random_Nerd] William: "As I understand it, he wasn't even sure /that/ something was going on."
[DanteE] "If it was an attack on _Courage_, and it predated our Ascension..."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Today's just the day for unpleasant necessities, isn't it? I think we may need to get the Council in on this."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "You guys... you have pull with Ha Qadosh Berakha, yes?"
[Brian] "Um. You could say that."
[DanteE] "We do indeed..."
[Brian] (... weren't we supposed to be doing something for him? Have we been shirking our duty?)

  • Kite glances nervously at Ftisk at the mention of the Council.

[Random_Nerd] Duty: "If you can, try to bend his ear about this, see if he can get the rest to throw some support our way."
[Kite] (Investigating the effects of the Wall, yes? We could probably make a report.)
[DanteE] (Sort of, we got caught up in other things.)
[Random_Nerd] (He wants you to find out what you can about the Wall, the memory issues related to it, and so forth, and then report to him.)
[Random_Nerd] (You guys /have/ been working on that, even if not for his sake.)
[Brian] "I think Dante has a bit of pull with Entropy" (right? It was Dante that Girl!Entropy hit on?)
[DanteE] "'Pull' isn't quite the word."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Will Entropy at least pay attention to you?"
[Brian] "Right. Entropy wanted to pull you. Erm."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "And not kill you ?"
[Brian] *coughs*
[Theresa] "He needs to wear something that shows off his chest. Maybe some tight jeans."
[DanteE] (Well, maybe if I wear tight jeans...)
[Theresa] "Oh, well, that's the hard part."
[DanteE] (jinx)
[Kite] to Brian:
[Kite] "I think the word was 'boing'".
[Brian] "You know. maybe I shouldn't be giving away ALL our secrets. It might be useful to keep some of them."
[DanteE] to William: "Just out of curiosity, how much has word of Entropy's ... attention got out?"
[DanteE] "Not when Creation is at stake, Brian."
[Random_Nerd] William: "You would sleep better at night if I didn't tell you, sir."
[DanteE] "Who sleeps?"
[Random_Nerd] Sam: "You /do/ know that there are entire secret societies that exhaustively consider and debate when Entropy shows any signs of emotional connection to /anyone/, right?"
[Kite] "Granted, most of my knowledge of the encounter came to me through Ftisk."
[Random_Nerd] Sam: "Like, six of them, at least."
[Theresa] "They're all on the internet, aren't they, Sam?"
[Random_Nerd] Sam: "Not all."
[DanteE] "Wait, wait, wait. First we need to find out what we're dealing with."
[DanteE] "All we know is that it's English dogs and Dionyl soldiers involved."
[Kite] "And Moon dogs."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Okay, here's my idea. We pull all the strings we can to get the Council to call a meeting about this. I'll work the Entropy angle by way of Consequences, you work Berakha, and that may be enough. And before that, we'll both check around fur anyone else whose Estate seems to be... fraying."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "How does that sound?"
[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "I won't be able to speak in front of the Council."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Why?"
[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "I don't know. But Entropy made that much very clear."
[Brian] "Sounds good. Sam, can you get the Aides on this too?"
[Theresa] "Ah. Okay. Can we take a written version of your statement with us?"
[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "Really, it's fortunate that your Chancel isn't on Earth, because I don't think I'm welcome there at the moment."
[Random_Nerd] Sam: "Sure, boss."
[Random_Nerd] Sam: "I'll get the word out"
[DanteE] (Aren't we sort of on Earth?
[Random_Nerd] (Halfway between Hell and Jupiter.)
[DanteE] (Doesn't the whole solar system fall under E's eye?)
[Brian] "Get the word to the Aide society, and tell everyone who seems to be suffering the same effect to meet in the garden in Amyra."
[Random_Nerd] (In general... but Barakiel is the Angel of Jupiter. His dominion there would probably not be contested.)
[DanteE] "We should check on Mike Cook first."
[Random_Nerd] (Entropy doesn't pick fights with Angels if he can help it, especially crazy ones.)
[Brian] "Say, two days' time?"
[Brian] "Think that's enough? We probably want to move quickly on this stuff."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Yeah, I think that can work."
[DanteE] "Let's see, who all would be involved?
[DanteE] "... is there a Power of London?"
[Kite] "Walter."
[Theresa] "There's more probably a Spirit of London."
[DanteE] "Ophaniel."
[spiderFtisk] (b)

  • spiderFtisk change in the dragonConrad

[Random_Nerd] Sam: "Want me to see if the Aides can get a shaman to make contact?"
=-= YOU are now known as dragonConrad
[Brian] "I don't know how quickly we can move on the Council thing, though. But getting a sense of how widespread the issue is useful."
[DanteE] "Once we get in touch with Mike."
[dragonConrad] "This time I show him if he try tp take _my_ Dante!"
[Random_Nerd] Suddenly, without any visible transition, Duty is holding a short but very sharp-looking spear, pointed at FtiskConrad
[Random_Nerd] He seems faintly surprised to find that he is doing so.
[DanteE] "Oh, did we mention Ftisk Tempered a Warmain?"
[Kite] "Ftisk..."
[dragonConrad] "yep!"
[Brian] "Um. Conrad?"
[dragonConrad] "No Ftisk at the moment"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "No. No you did not mention that."
[DanteE] "We always forget that..."
[Brian] "It's time to be Ftisk."
[dragonConrad] "ok ok but ... ok"
[Kite] "I apologize for our negligence in mentioning it."
=-= YOU are now known as Ftisk
[Brian] (brb)
[Ftisk] "I can only say good thing of tempering. _IS_ fun!"
[DanteE] "Sorry about that."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "I understand that my Chancel has a reputation for being a haven to Unknownable Things, but I really think that /one/ possible Excrucian in a room is quite enough."
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "I really need to get on this as soon as possible. We'll meet up in two days."

  • Theresa does not mention anything about the mask.

[Ftisk] "Hey! Excru is a political meaning!"

  • Theresa bows her head. "Thank you very much."

[DanteE] "OK. We should stop in on Shadows and Consequences...
[DanteE] "Rude to stop by without saying hello..."
[Ftisk] "yep!"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "I think you should probably leave before the internal Excrucian detectors arm themselves."
[Ftisk] "uhm... If I change again you'll do the sword thing again?"
[Brian] "Will do. And Shadows, at least, knows how to find the meeting place."
[Kite] "Please don't test it, Ftisk."
[Random_Nerd] Sam: "You have Excrucian detectors?"
[DanteE] "... wait, why haven't they popped yet?"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "With a chancel this permeable to the Outside, we /have/ to."
[Ftisk] "can I look at one?"
[Kite] (I was wondering about those...)
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "You really don't want to."
[Ftisk] "can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I? can I?"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Okay, you can, but step out into the hall first. I /like/ this desk, and I don't want anything happening to it."

  • Ftisk run to the hall

[Kite] "Would it be safer for me to stay in here?"
[Ftisk] ( @K:lol! )
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Possible Excrucian intrusion in Duty sector. Scan and confirm."
[Random_Nerd] Ftisk, suddenly all over the hall, eyes of all descriptions and sizes open up.
[Random_Nerd] All of then turn to look at you.

  • Ftisk stay up and pout

[Brian] (... uh oh. What a time for me to have gone afk ...)
[DanteE] (Not really, Ftisk is about to do his can-can dance. :) )
[Kite] (That's okay. I don't think Brian could have stopped Ftisk.)
[Random_Nerd] Then everything seems to vanish.
[Random_Nerd] Everyone else, Ftisk seems to have suddenly disappeared.
[Brian] (true. Nothing can stop Ftisk. Should be an Affliction.)
[Theresa] "Oh not again. I hope it's not like when he tried to feed Shadows' pigeon."

  • Kite 's beak hangs open.

[Random_Nerd] Conrad, you're floating in a murky dark stream of some sort. The flow of the river is pushing you backwards.
[Ftisk] "Cool!"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Wait, it actually sent him out?"
[Brian] *doesn't even blink*
[Theresa] (Uh, I think Ftisk may be being pushed Outside...)
[Random_Nerd] What do you do, Conrad?
[DanteE] "Duty, was it your system that did that?"
[Brian] "We're used to Ftisk vanishing for various reasons. He'll reappear somewhere, sometime."
[ERROR] Ambiguous command, ``i, 8 commands match [idle-away, idle-back, ignore, iltr, input-text-direction, install-plugin, invite, irtl].

  • Ftisk look around

[Random_Nerd] Duty: "It shouldn't have actually triggered like that on a Noble, even one with stars in his eyes."
[Kite] "Would it have done that on a non-Noble?"

  • Theresa starts mentally composing the sympathy Hallmark card. "Dear Vulcan: We are so sorry about the loss of your Noble. We had no idea that an Excrucian monitor would chuck him outside...")

[Random_Nerd] Duty: "On an Outsider, yes. Shadows beefed it up after the whole... floating head incident."
[Brian] "There's not actually precedent for Nobles tempering Excrucians."
[DanteE] "Oh, he told you about that?"
[Theresa] "This is quite beefy."
[WARNING] Extra parameters ``I feel like there is somewhere my wholeness like the full excu? ignored.
 [ERROR] No connection or /list in progress, nothing to cancel.
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Eventually."
[Ftisk] (can I feel like there is somewhere my wholeness like the full excu?)
[Brian] "By the way." (prays to Shadows) "Um, Ftisk ran quite afoul of your Excrucian detection mechanism. We'd appreciate him back before being swiss-cheesed."
[Kite] "I hope Lord Vulcan wasn't too attached to him, then."

  • Kite sniffs.

[Random_Nerd] (You feel two sorts of tugging that may be to a larger self. One is with the direction of the river, and one is against it.)
[DanteE] "As much as I would appreciate not having to lock my underwear drawer, we'd kinda like him back..."
[Theresa] (Hee! ^^ )
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Uh..."
[Brian] (pray to Shadows) "Shadows? Um? Help?"

  • Ftisk try to fly with the river ... is easier!

[Random_Nerd] He stands up and stretches for a moment.

  • Theresa pats Kite on the shoulder. "It'll be okay. Something will happen. For all we know, the Outside will kick him back here."

[Random_Nerd] Then he takes off at an almost invisibly fast run, straight through the wall.
[Random_Nerd] It doesn't leave a Duty-shaped cutout, but it seems like it /should/ have.
[Theresa] "Oookay...I take that as a bad sign. He even left his desk."
[Brian] "He left his desk with /us/.'
[Kite] "Thanks Ther....wha?"
[Random_Nerd] Seven tenths of a second later, he charges back through the wall, holding Shadows' shoulder in one hand.
[Ftisk] wait a river? Can I exit it and travel along it?
[Random_Nerd] (You can try to swim with it, or against it.)
[Brian] (exit river. "I'm sorry, I don't understand that command.")
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Summon Ftisk. Now."
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "/Summon/ him? What?"
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Now. Or there may be a major diplomatic incident."
[DanteE] "Hi Shadows..."
[Theresa] "Excrucian defense system. Took him."
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "What."

  • Kite looks at Shadows with a poor, birdy imitation of puppy-dog eyes.

[DanteE] "Did we tell you about the tempering?"
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "A proper summoning takes /hours/..."
[Ftisk] uhm. I run against it to try to land
[Brian] "Admittedly, you couldn't know. Ftisk is the only Noble we know of who ever Tempered an Excrucian."
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "Umm...."

  • Kite but they are sincere puppy-dog eyes, nonetheless.
  • Kite even if they look bird-angry.

[Random_Nerd] Conrad, as you swim against the current, you feel your scales tingling.
[Ftisk] the river have something in it? like ... well something?
[Random_Nerd] Just you, the water, and the darkness.
[Ftisk] I try to grasp what hit against my scales
=-= YOU are now known as Conrad
[Random_Nerd] You feel like your shape is different, here. That you're less a dragon, and more something stranger, with dozens of long trailing limbs. You think it was one of your own arms that brushed against your chest...
[Theresa] (You have scales?)
[Random_Nerd] And then as you fight the current, you feel a shore.
[Brian] (Conrad was dragony)
[DanteE] (It's CoC from their point of view! :) )
[Kite] (Do you have your dwarf back?)
[Conrad] ohhh! I try to land on the shore
[Brian] "Shadows, what does your system toss Outside?"
[Random_Nerd] Everyone, a blue-green-and-silver squid-dragon appears over Duty's desk.
[Brian] "Things like that?"
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "Uh... things like that?"
[Brian] (jinx.)
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "Is... that him?"

  • Kite blinks.

[DanteE] "Ftisk? Is that you?"
[Brian] "Could be. Ftisk is rarely in the same form twice."

  • Conrad can I reach Gnomely and Dollp?

[Theresa] "Ftisk? Conrad? "
[Theresa] "Quick, Dante, take off your shirt."
[Random_Nerd] Conrad, you feel an energetic presence fill you, taking over your body.
[Random_Nerd] Ftisk, you appear on Duty's desk.
[Kite] (hee hee!)
[Conrad] (Ftisk or Conrad?)
[DanteE] (I was thinking the same thing...)
[Random_Nerd] (Conrad just got possessed and taken over by the spirit of Ftisk, as he crossed back.)

  • DanteE sees Ftisk drop in mid-unbuttoning. Damn shame.

[Conrad] oh, /me run full speed to dante chest!
[Random_Nerd] You still look like a squid-dragon-creature, though.
=-= YOU are now known as DragonSquid
[DragonSquid] who cares!
[Theresa] (Squid-attack! Suckers of love!)
[DanteE] "... I've had puppies with more self-control..."
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "Okay, I'm just /confused/]"
[Kite] (But Dante is Courage. He's not afraid! ...right?)

  • DragonSquid look at myself. Summon some mirrors to look at blind angles even

[Brian] "..."
[Kite] "Your back!"
[DragonSquid] "Cool!"
[DanteE] "Well, this squid thing doesn't seem to be eating my soul or anything, so I'm assuming it's Ftisk..."
[Random_Nerd] Sam: "Ftisk would /totally/ eat your soul."
[Random_Nerd] William: "I concur."

  • Kite jubilates and hugs squidrad-Ftisk"

[Theresa] "I third."
[DragonSquid] "Yep! I was in a stream and then find a shore and then was against Dante _chest_!!!

  • DanteE Aspect-3 fights that visual...

[Kite] (^you're)
[Random_Nerd] Duty: "While I appreciate the aid that you've come to bring... could you all please get out of my office? I need to think."
[DanteE] (This gets sillier when you remember Dante takes pride in staying calm no matter what...
[Theresa] *to Shadows* "Ftisk tempered a Warmain. He triggered your defenses. Oh and this is Caesar, from Dionyl."

  • DragonSquid fell in haven

[Brian] "We will. We'll meet in our garden in a couple days."
[Theresa] "Is it okay to take Ftisk out into the hall again?"
[DanteE] (Which means all my dialogue is in a calm reasonable voice despite saying utterly bizarre things. :D )
[DragonSquid] "Sam, yea soul and not only that!"
[Kite] "Is it safe for Ftisk to go out there again?"
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "Hold on..."
[Kite] "We could make a mad-dash for the gate..."

  • DragonSquid nod nod

[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "Let me think... Ftisk, do you mind if I mark you as one of my familiars, at least for the moment?"
[DanteE] "Ftisk, can you turn back to your natural form?"
[DragonSquid] "I like that form"
[DragonSquid] "Sure Shadow!"
[Random_Nerd] Shadows writes a complicated squiggly symbol on a post-it note from Duty's desk, and sticks it on Ftisk's scaly forehead.
[Brian] "Sailor Mars?"
[DragonSquid] "Must I stay against your chest now?"
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "But I'd appreciate it if you'd get out of here until I can figure out what just happened."

  • DragonSquid start to disentangle from Dante and to entangle to Shadow"

[Brian] "Yeah, let's go. Shadows, you should come too, to the meeting a couple days from now. It'll be Important."

  • Kite jots down a note to ask Gil how he feels about becoming a Sailor Soldier.

[Brian] (hee)
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "Meeting?"
[DanteE] "Consequences as well. In fact, can you send our apologies for not stopping by to see him?"
[Random_Nerd] William: "Ask Duty."
[Brian] "Yeah. Um. That."
[Random_Nerd] Shadows mutters: "Tempering should /not/ have done that, unless I did something wrong."
[DanteE] "Unless _you_ did something wrong?"
[Brian] "More likely, Ftisk did something wrong. And that's why it worked."
[DragonSquid] "how you are related to _my_ tempering?"
[Theresa] "Unless it's how Shadows set up _his_ defense system."
[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "I do find it very interesting that it didn't trigger on /me/."
[Brian] "You weren't in the hall."
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "You get gone too. Uh... sir? Ymera? Imperator?"
[Brian] "Also, you are /sure/ of who you are."
[DanteE] to Caesar: "Well, you didn't come through the hall..."
[DragonSquid] "Uhm well, I like to be all excrucianly you not"
[Brian] "Oh, and Shadows, he'll be at the meeting too. You can talk to him more there, if you want. I presume, anyway, Ceasar?"
[Random_Nerd] Caesar: "I should be going. Do you want me to take you with me?"
[DragonSquid] "I follow Dante..."
[Kite] "Shadows, allow me to introduce Caesar, a Magister of Domination from Dionyl. Caesar, Shadows."
[Kite] (Kite never got Caesar's full name...)
[DanteE] "Also, technically, the Ymera of Active Writing."
[Random_Nerd] (Gaius Julius Caesar. He named himself after the human one.)
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "That's /you/? I'll have a lot of questions for you once we've got this stuff settled, then."
[DanteE] "Also Deodands and the Law of the Name..."
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "You'll have to tell me what those are."
[Brian] (hard J or y J?)
[DanteE] (Wait a sec... how does his third Estate work, exactly?)
[Kite] (Plush J)
[Random_Nerd] (You know Afflictions? Like that.)
[DragonSquid] (but with something mythically related)
[DanteE] (Maybe we can just name something Stomper-Of-Kings... :) )
[Kite] (He was a harbinger of 3e!)
[Random_Nerd] For a moment, the world vanishes.
[Random_Nerd] Then it rebuilds itself from scratch as a world that does not contain Caesar.
[Kite] "I kind-of like that ending bit..."
[DragonSquid] "Again... cool!"
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "That's a weird one."
[Brian] "yeah."
[DanteE] "He is a Domination, after all."
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "Do they all do it like that?"
[Brian] "not sure."
[DanteE] "Wouldn't know.
[DragonSquid] "maybe?"
[Random_Nerd] Shadows: "Fair enough. See you in... two days, I guess!"
[DanteE] "Anyway, can we take Ftisk to the door, or what?"
[Kite] "He's the only Domination I've met."
[Random_Nerd] (Mind if we stop here?)
[Brian] (sure)
[DragonSquid] "now that I'm your pet I must do -meow-?"
[Kite] (Looks like a good place)
[DragonSquid] (sure!)
[DanteE] (sure)
[Random_Nerd] _____________STOP_______________

[Theresa] Oh and a picture for you, Angelo http://noms.icanhascheezburger.com/2011/01/17/funny-food-photos-go-speedy-go/
[lazarus] well, that was fun :)
=-= Theresa is now known as BethE
=-= DanteE is now known as Knockwood
[Angelo] fu-u-u-u-n!
[Random_Nerd] Oh, and game-mechanically speaking, the "defense system" is a Treasure-based Gift of Shadows'.
[Knockwood] ooh, Big Heavy Plot Points. :)
[Angelo] Jep!
[lazarus] and being Treasure-based, has some room for things like that.
[Random_Nerd] Based on a –REDACTED- "Weaving Destiny" miracle.
[Angelo] And will have worked on Caesar?
=-= Kite is now known as Verithe
[Random_Nerd] That's presently unclear.
[Knockwood] come to think of it I think I've still got some Treasure points to play with...
[Verithe] http://ken-wong.deviantart.com/art/Snailfight-113493605
[Angelo] wow
[lazarus] Sigh. Both falling asleep and wanting to finish off the main part of Dollhouse Season 1
[Random_Nerd] See you all next week, guys.
[Random_Nerd] Good session.
[lazarus] see you RN!
[Angelo] oki
[Angelo] night RN
[Angelo] and awesome session!
[lazarus] I'm looking forward to pushing this storyline :D
[Angelo] me tooo!
[BethE] Night, guys! *HUGS*
[Verithe] Take care!
[lazarus] 'night Bethy!
|[-- Random_Nerd has left irc2.magicstar.net (Disintegrated: )
[lazarus] g'night everyone!
[Angelo] Nigt Beth *HUG*
|[-- lazarus has left irc2.magicstar.net (Disintegrated: lazarus)
[Angelo] Night Laz!
|[-- BethE has left irc2.magicstar.net (Disintegrated: All shall love me and despair?)
[Angelo] well, we find that outside there are rivers
[Angelo] and Conrad true form?
[Knockwood] don't forget to save your private session for the log.
[Verithe] Maybe it was a river that was Excruciated!
[Knockwood] What was in there?
[Angelo] eh, good point K, I don’t know murky water
[Knockwood] (And you notice... apparently there's a whole group under http://snail-parade.deviantart.com )
[Verithe] Then again, the shore seemed like Creation, so maybe the river was a metaphor?
[Angelo] and can be right
[Knockwood] Well, you got there when you got caught in their anti-Outsider system...
[Knockwood] it could just be the toilet pipe. :)
[Angelo] lol
[Angelo] right
[Angelo] maybe Ftisk was traveling to outside?
[Angelo] and then Ftisk will finally found a out of the wall estate -Toilet pipe- that is!
[Knockwood] Well, it's possible that you only saw it as a river because you're from Creation and therefore know what rivers are.
[Knockwood] oh, you think part of this session should go in the Quotes Page? :)
[Angelo] but outside Ftisk is Conrad
[Angelo] yes but what part of it?
[Angelo] well, I go. Good night K, good day V.
