Editing Scions of Heaven/Act 1/Session 4 (Idyllic Caradeen: Part Four (Final))

<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:05:40)</font> Myllinnia: Our young heroes did their best, using the powers granted them they stormed a ... very lightly defended big mouthed ship and culled it. Now it sits sulking beyond the farms near the smoldering Shadow Forest. The village itself is in decent shape, and the villagers are quickly rebuilding already.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:07:31)</font> Myllinnia: The Council has convened and no doubt they are discussing the next step in whatever plan they seem to have. The rest of you had been left to your own devices, and upon returning to the Hill found it as you had left. Several servants are cleaning the mess. &gt;&gt;<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:08:27)</font> Myllinnia: Upon sunrise you all feel, with exception of Tai whose memory was damaged upon her exaltation, as if yesterday was all just a shared nightmare.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:08:46)</font> Priide Kittee kisses Tai on the forehead, holding her lover's hand gently.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:09:10)</font> Tai Zi smiles and sits next to Priide looking over the place quietly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:11:33)</font> Gale: Gale wakes up a bit cautiously, remembering the night before at least. And He can still feel the changes to his body. The way he needs less sleep, the way he moves faster... He doesn't even feel groggy when he awakes. He just gets out of bed, changing his clothes before going downstairs, looking to see who else is awake.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:12:05)</font> Priide Kittee waves at Gale as he comes downstairs. "Sleep well?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:12:38)</font> T`zaran comes in from outside around the same time that the others are waking, Eos by his side.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:12:48)</font> Gale: "Better then I was when I was awake." he gives a brief smile. "Though I wish I had dreamed longer. How are you, Priide?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:12:55)</font> Tai Zi is siting with Priide, wearing a new breatband carefly possitioned so that its not pressing down her new quills much, a loin cloth around her hips, she has a beaten and aged book in her lap reading it quietly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:13:25)</font> Fox: Bounds back to the house from the ship in a series of super human leaps. "Hi everybody"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:13:33)</font> Priide Kittee: "Good, thanks." The Sidereal smiles at her lover. "Enjoying your book, my moonlight?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:14:37)</font> Tai Zi she frowns a bit but nods at Priide. "Yes sweety, I know I've read it before, but I dont remember reading it, at the same time I remember some of what I'm reading."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:19:26)</font> Myllinnia: Lilly is awake looking out of the window with a calm peaceful look in the dining room. The pair of servants that have been cooking for you are busy cooking a warm meal it appears.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:19:30)</font> Rai is sitting on the steps with a plate full of breakfast and brushes, having been chased outside after people complained about painting his armor at the table<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:19:45)</font> Gale: Gale shakes his head, looking to everyone. "I wanted to apologize for my... outburst, during my exaltation, and afterwards. Even after I gained control, I had so many emotions running through my head. It was hard to think straight, or even feel right. I'm in control again now though. I have vowed not to let it happen again, I do not want anyone here harmed."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:30:41)</font> T`zaran: "I feel changed as well, though in a good way. I can do more than just train animals, now. I can speak with them." He chuckles at Fox, "But still hungry, yeah."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:31:56)</font> Tai Zi picks at her breakfast, she doesnt seem particularly hungry<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:33:13)</font> Priide Kittee steals some of Tai's breakfast, feeding other pieces to the Lunar.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:36:36)</font> Myllinnia: Lilly continues to stare out of the window but at least the meal was a very good one. Slowly Noon comes and with it comes Scarlet Ruby, she looks tired as she approaches the entrance and might have not even been back to the Hill since yesterday.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:37:36)</font> Gale: Gale moves to keep Lilly company after the meal, more concerned for her safety now. His brotherly instincts kick in, and he loses any worries about himself as he tried to get Lil to eat some before Ruby arrives.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:38:12)</font> Rai comes back in with a grin on his face, having finished up the finishing touches that didn't get done yesterday. "Such a wonderful morning!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:40:18)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet smiles warmly if not tiredly as she comes to the table where you all are Lilly continues not to eat refusing always politely. "I hope you all have slept well?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:41:32)</font> Fox: Fox concentrates on his breakfast.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:41:39)</font> Gale: "As well as I can sleep. I would prefer to sleep for a week more, but i've not that amount of time. Are you well? you look drained." he says to scarlet, much more calmly this time then last night.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:42:15)</font> Rai: "I slept great!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:43:38)</font> Myllinnia: "I am fine," she responds gently to Gale and smiles to Rai, "Anyway I have good news for you. You no longer have chores and things to do. You are free to do what you wish."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:43:48)</font> Rai: "Woohoo!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:43:55)</font> Priide Kittee frowns.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:44:01)</font> Rai: "You should all be my air pirate crew!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:44:17)</font> Priide Kittee: "This wouldn't be connected to yesterday's events, would it, mum?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:44:30)</font> T`zaran stifles a yawn. "I napped a bit, but was mostly busy exploring my new abilities."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:45:06)</font> Tai Zi leans against Priide softly watching Scarlet quietly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:45:25)</font> Priide Kittee smiles, cuddling her lover gently.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:46:09)</font> Rai: "Nobody? Aww..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:46:13)</font> T`zaran: "So long as we're pirates who only attack people who deserve it and who protect the innocent, then I'll be part of your crew."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:46:15)</font> Tai Zi coughs softly. "What were my chores?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:46:44)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet Ruby nods. "Yes it is connected to yesterday. Of you acquiring the powers to battle the darkness outside our lands. So how do you all feeling about your new founds abilities?" Her tone in the latter question is tinged with concern.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:46:46)</font> Rai: "Sure, we'd only fight the bad guys"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:47:25)</font> Rai: "And you answered first, so you can be first mate!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:48:21)</font> Gale: "The armor does look nice Rai." He says with a smile.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:48:47)</font> Priide Kittee: "Good. Worried. Not intending to use them to become a pirate." Priide says wryly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:49:33)</font> Gale: "As for how I feel about them..." Gale shakes his head. "Scared, I guess. But last night... something helped me. I think you may know already, correct Ruby?" He asks, a bit curious. Its not patroniZing, but she knew who he talked to... "So I'm still scared. But I know they are *my* powers, and not Malfeas."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:49:50)</font> Fox: "I love them thanks! How did you make them?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:49:57)</font> T`zaran: "They're amazing. I spent most of the night talking to the animals in the woods, and getting to know Eos even better. I need to find someone who can teach me more of the Art of Victorious Concession, though. I know there's more to it, but I can't seem to remember any more."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:50:03)</font> Tai Zi looks angerly at Scarlet. "how should I feel, I have nothing before yesterday, I dont know who you are, I dont even realy know whats going on here..." She pulls her knees up and stands starting to pace quietly. Quills standing up across her back.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:50:41)</font> Priide Kittee looks at Tai, then stands, moving to hug her. "It's okay, Tai. You're safe here. Trust me."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:51:14)</font> T`zaran grins at Rai. "Thanks. Though I think Gale might be a better first mate than me."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:52:15)</font> Rai: "Well, you can have your pick of jobs then!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:52:25)</font> Myllinnia: An eyebrow arcs on her face. "When did she start exhibiting this Priide? During the attack or during her... exaltation?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:53:55)</font> Tai Zi says nothing just resting aginst Priide, blinking yellow eyes softly, being careful not to stick her with her quills<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:56:33)</font> Priide Kittee raises an eyebrow right back at Scarlet. "How about you tell us what you know about those shards *before* asking us questions, mum?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 13:59:03)</font> Myllinnia: "Very well," she says as she sits down crossing her arms. One of the servants brings a cup of tea before disappearing. "Those shards my children are Celestial Exalted shards. Shards that many died for keeping away from the Ebon Empress."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:00:17)</font> Myllinnia: "They contain the power granted by the Incarna themselves, granting you, my child the power of heroes long since past through history."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:00:54)</font> Rai: "How'd you get ahold of them?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:01:27)</font> Fox: "And where can we get more?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:02:16)</font> Priide Kittee blinks. "I see." She hugs Tai close. <i>We've been granted power by the Incarna? Wow.</i><br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:02:29)</font> Gale: "And it is correct that you did not anticipate Lilly or I receiving our gifts the way we did? We were to normally exalt like the others."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:03:38)</font> Tai Zi frowns. "did you expect me to forget?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:04:09)</font> Myllinnia: She nods a bit sadly. "I had not anticipated the Neverborn or the YoZi to take desperate matters as I have. Their methods are a bit more sure than mine. However I got mine from several of those from heaven, just before each of you were born."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:04:31)</font> Myllinnia: "And no... I had not anticipated you to forget dear Tai. It is disturbing that it has happened."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:06:36)</font> Priide Kittee hugs Tai gently. "I hope you get your memory back soon, Tai, love."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:06:47)</font> Tai Zi puts a hand on Priide's arm closeing her eyes, spines twiching. "Please tell her what she wants to know starlight, it may help"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:06:53)</font> Rai: "Isn't getting hit on the head supposed to help with amnesia?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:06:59)</font> Gale: "I see." Gale nods his head. "I only want to ask... Were we to have exalted like the others?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:07:04)</font> Priide Kittee: "No. It's not."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:07:16)</font> Rai: "I totally read that somewhere though."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:07:33)</font> Myllinnia: "Yes," she says simple to Gale noticing Lilly's continued disintrest.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:09:27)</font> Priide Kittee nods at Tai's words. "All right. It was in the Exaltation. I think."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:11:33)</font> Gale: "Can you help Lilly? You said... she was on a darker path, and I heard the same from T'zaran... And another. Can she be helped?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:11:46)</font> Myllinnia: She nods at Priide thoughtful. "I've not heard of this. But its possible that a part of the taint that the Lunar Exaltations once held might have been at work. It should recover though."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:12:39)</font> Priide Kittee: "Taint?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:12:51)</font> Myllinnia: She nods, "There... is possibly away. But it is more difficult now that it was in the past."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:13:23)</font> Priide Kittee: "What's this 'Taint' you mentioned?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:14:06)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet looks to Priide. "Long ago the shards that are those of the Lunars were subjected to the corruptive powers of the Wyld. Each of the shards since there hand a small spark that could eventually drive a Lunar mad. Since the Ebon Empress' capture of the shards the taints and sparks were cleansed. Though it appears not all of them."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:14:45)</font> Myllinnia: "This is supposition and for Tai the same solution might be in store for her as it is for Lilly. Maybe."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:15:00)</font> Gale: Gale goes quiet, shaking his head. "Is there a way I can help Tai Zi? She is a friend of mine, and though we do not see eye to eye, she needs my help as well."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:15:08)</font> Rai: "Shard soap?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:15:11)</font> Priide Kittee: "I see." Priide looks troubled. "Do you know how they were cleansed?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:16:46)</font> T`zaran listens quietly, frowning faintly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:18:34)</font> Myllinnia: She shakes her head. "However it is said that the Ebon Empress is able to clean them with her... strangely destructive power. Again it is not fully known if that is true or not. There is one that may truly know and I have not been able to talk with him these last 20 years."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:19:24)</font> Tai Zi shakes her head and sits down back aginst the wall carefully. "Stop, you said that she had shards like ours..with out the taint that effected me...how many shards does she have?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:19:25)</font> Rai: "Did he move without telling you?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:20:06)</font> Priide Kittee crouches next to Tai, taking one of the Lunar's hands.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:20:27)</font> Tai Zi squeezes Priide's hand.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:20:30)</font> Myllinnia: She is silent for a moment. "There are less than 700 of them."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:20:47)</font> Priide Kittee: "That doesn't answer her question, mum."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:24:53)</font> T`zaran: "A more important question is how many of them are trapped in tubes like ours were, and how many are being used by people that she controls?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:26:28)</font> Gale: "I would be as concerned about her husband controlling them. He has his own exalts."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:26:30)</font> Myllinnia: "She doesn't let them out. She is afraid of the Celestial and Terrestial Exaltations. They go against her plans they do not follow her Order. I was the only one with these shards. And of the 700 Celestial shards I only had 10."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:26:57)</font> Priide Kittee blinks. "What happened to the other two?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:28:27)</font> Myllinnia: "I do not know. This is why the Ebon Empress dislikes them so. Once free of whatever restrains them they will continue their hunt for the appropriate ones to Exalt. I would think maybe they found people to empower."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:29:40)</font> Tai Zi frowns. "so in her control or not, there are atleast two others like us out there<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:29:40)</font> Priide Kittee: "I see." Priide looks worried. "Hopefully we can convince whoever they did choose to side with us."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:29:57)</font> Fox: "So how do we find them?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:31:05)</font> Rai: "Ride around being sky pirates, of course!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:31:10)</font> Rai: "They'll be drawn to us!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:31:57)</font> Priide Kittee sighs. "I don't think it works that way, Rai. And who says we're becoming sky pirates, anyway?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:32:20)</font> Rai: "I did, like three times already. Gale and T are coming too<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:32:38)</font> Myllinnia: "Well," she is thoughtful for a moment. "There is no good way to find them other than looking for them. There are other cities and villages outside of Caradeen. Though likely if they exalted recently in any of them a Shadow Scythe might have found them."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:33:49)</font> Rai: "And I mean, *we* all went to the airship when it showed up, so naturally the others like us would too!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:34:20)</font> Tai Zi looks at Rai. "it was firing on the town, we had to stop it."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:34:26)</font> T`zaran: "And the ship did say that the Empress would come looking for it if it didn't return -- so we need to make sure she finds out that we've taken the ship and left as Exalted. Then she'll have no more reason to threaten Caradeen."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:35:06)</font> Tai Zi looks at T`zaran. "No reason? they sheltered us apparently and hid ten items of power from it."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:35:44)</font> Priide Kittee: "And that doesn't require us to become thieves. I don't know about *you*, but I have these little things called *morals*. You may have heard of them?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:35:53)</font> Gale: "They'll have very little reason if we stay here."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:36:11)</font> Gale: "Priide, we both know Rai means pirate in the vagabond, general, good swashbuckling sense."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:36:35)</font> Gale: "Look at Rai, he's too goofy to be bad."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:36:50)</font> Rai nods furiously through the first part of Gale's statement but shouts "Hey!" at the second part<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:37:14)</font> Priide Kittee raises an eyebrow. "It's always the ones you least expect, as a rule."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:37:21)</font> T`zaran: "Ten items of power that aren't here anymore. We'd be the bigger target. Caradeen wouldn't be relevant to them anymore. And Rai has already said we'd only attack people that deserve it -- namely the Ebon Empress and her forces -- and that we'd protect the innocent."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:38:27)</font> Rai: "C'mon, when have you ever known me to take something from someone who didn't deserve it?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:38:30)</font> Tai Zi looks at Priide. "There's only one think keeping me here." She curls her fingers aginst Priides.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:38:31)</font> Rai: "... and not give it back, I mean."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:38:50)</font> Gale: "Oh, you're our goofball, Rai." Gale gets up and gives him some noogies for good measure. "And of course i'm coming with you if you do this piracy thing. Gotta make sure you don't get in *too* much trouble."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:39:14)</font> Gale: "The short of it is... The empress is after us. She wouldn't give nine tenths of as much of a damn if we weren't here now."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:39:18)</font> Priide Kittee looks at Tai, then blushes. "Thank you, my moonlight."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:39:37)</font> Rai: "Ack, quit it!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:39:51)</font> Rai squirms out of Gale's grasp after the first half of a noogie<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:40:19)</font> Gale: "I am willing to leave Carenteen if I can save Tai Zi, and lilly." Gale gives a brief nod.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:40:55)</font> Gale: "I know very well that my exaltation cannot be restored like theirs. It is not something that can be done. I don't care about that. I am that i am, and I will ensure that I do good in this world with this gift."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:41:29)</font> Fox: "Well said."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:41:39)</font> Fox: "So say we all."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:41:50)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet smiles warmly at his statement and Lilly turns to look at him with a slight frown.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:45:48)</font> T`zaran: "Hmm." He rubs his chin, considering, then looks down to Eos. "You wouldn't mind if I trained a falcon, would you? You can't fly, and we're going to be spending quite a bit of time on an airship." Eos looks back up at him and yawns, entirely undisturbed by the notion of a big bird hanging around.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:46:16)</font> Gale: "Ruby, you didn't take these shards alone, did you? Besides this man you mentioned..." Gale pauses, a bit unsure...<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:46:20)</font> Gale: "There was another who helped. A woman."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:46:49)</font> Priide Kittee looks at Gale curiously. "What are you talking about?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:47:33)</font> T`zaran looks just as puzzled as Kittee.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:47:54)</font> Gale: "Yesterday when I went into the woods to clear my thoughts, I had a meeting with a curious servant of the Ebon dragon."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:49:23)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet Ruby winces visibly. "There... are several that still survive... in a way... from their delivery of the shards. What... was the name of this servant Gale?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:50:24)</font> Gale: "She was named Diamond Night Sword."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:51:28)</font> Myllinnia: She nods softly if not a bit unnerved. "Did she say much?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:51:33)</font> Rai: "She? Was she totally hot and willing to be swayed to the side of good by a charming young sky pirate?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:52:18)</font> Priide Kittee rolls her eyes.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:53:40)</font> Rai rolls his eyes right back at Pride and Tai<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:54:05)</font> Gale: "Relax, Rai. She's after me."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:54:14)</font> Gale: "She mentioned a few things... She's enslaved to the Ebon dragon."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:54:28)</font> T`zaran: "Enslaved?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:55:08)</font> Gale: "She mentioned the Yozi have a way to enslave exalted should the exalted be willing."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:55:29)</font> Rai: "Oh, if you want to do the swaying thats cool, I wouldn't poach your girl."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:55:32)</font> Gale: "I however, believe her to be an ally. She let me walk away with my life, and her name. I thought Ruby should know."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:56:09)</font> Priide Kittee raises an eyebrow. "His girl? He's barely met the woman." She murmurs to Tai.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:56:53)</font> Gale: "She was very pretty though. Even more beautiful then Scarlet ruby. I flirted shamelessly with her." He smiles.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:57:04)</font> Tai Zi smiles and pets Priide's hand. "to be fair starlight, its like I just met you, at least from my prespective."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:57:10)</font> Rai gives Gale a giant thumbs up!<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:57:22)</font> Myllinnia: <span style='color: black;'>"Thank you Gale, I appreciate you telling me."</span><br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:58:14)</font> Gale: He nods. "Should we meet her again, I would consider her an ally. She helped me get my bearings straight. She was rather nice, for someone who could be my assassin."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:58:25)</font> Gale: "Thats all..." He says, sitting down again.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:59:13)</font> Priide Kittee sighs. "I swear I'm going to help you get your memory back, my moonlight."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:59:21)</font> Gale: "I'll be trying to help her too, so I would appreciate it if no one tried shivving her when we meet."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:59:37)</font> Myllinnia: "I would be cautious all the same Gale." She says with a nod and a gentle smile.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 14:59:45)</font> Rai: "I wouldn't do that to my first mate's girl!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:00:21)</font> Gale: "Nothing but cautious." he says with a nod.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:01:12)</font> Tai Zi holds Priide's hand tightly watching Rai quietly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:01:15)</font> Myllinnia: "So you all plan to leave Caradeen then?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:01:36)</font> Gale: "I've no other choice. I must look after my friends. And there is a creation to save."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:01:52)</font> Gale: "And a Rai to save as he tries to save Creation. Or he can save me, being his first mate and all."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:02:13)</font> Rai: "We can get each other's backs!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:02:15)</font> Priide Kittee frowns. "I don't like that idea. I think we should stay here to protect it. The Ebon Empress is likely to make another strike, whether or not we leave."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:02:37)</font> Gale: "We should perhaps wait and see what her next move is."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:02:50)</font> Tai Zi nods. "If were to leave we must make sure that this place is still protected."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:02:51)</font> T`zaran nods to Ruby. "I don't think you'd all be safe here if we stayed. So long as we're very public about leaving, I think we can draw her attention away from Caradeen."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:05:10)</font> Rai: "Oh, if there's one thing I'm good at, it's drawing attention."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:05:26)</font> T`zaran laughs at that. "True enough."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:05:34)</font> Priide Kittee: "Far too much of it, usually." Priide murmurs.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:06:19)</font> Gale: "That just means he's the best diversionary tactic in the world."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:06:37)</font> Tai Zi nods and holds Priide's hand tightly looking up at Scarlet. "I would like to ask you some questions, privately."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:07:32)</font> Priide Kittee looks at Tai curiously. "Am I allowed to be present for those questions, my love?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:07:46)</font> Tai Zi nods. "Yes."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:07:53)</font> Rai: "If you're paying attention to me, you're miss the attack that's coming at you from behind!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:08:11)</font> Fox: "From me."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:09:33)</font> Priide Kittee: "Thank you, my moonlight." Priide murmurs.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:10:37)</font> Myllinnia: She frowns slightly, "Very well, I was going to turn in soon anyway. Follow me then." She stands bows to rest of you. "I will grant you things to have so you will be more ready whenever you desire to leave."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:11:12)</font> Rai: "Things! My favorite things!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:11:37)</font> Tai Zi stands and helps Priide up following Scarlet.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:12:12)</font> Priide Kittee smiles at Tai, standing and following Scarlet, one eye on her lover's buttocks.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:12:29)</font> Rai also follows Scarlet, drawn by the promise of stuff<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:13:48)</font> Gale gives a brief nod, following Ruby.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:15:59)</font> Tai Zi stops and stares hard yellow eyes at Gale and Rai. "Boys, a little privacy please?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:16:08)</font> Priide Kittee nods.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:16:11)</font> Rai: "I was promised things!<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:16:27)</font> Priide Kittee: "Wait till the morning."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:16:36)</font> Rai: "Impossible!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:16:44)</font> Rai: "I don't have that much patience."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:16:52)</font> Priide Kittee: "Learn some."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:16:59)</font> Rai: "I'd learn better with things."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:17:08)</font> T`zaran: "We'll get them before we leave. In the meantime, I think we need to name the ship, Rai."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:17:35)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet smiles softly, "Yes tomorrow morning I will give them to you. Tonight I will have to clear the codes to enter the Vault. Come ladies."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:17:58)</font> Priide Kittee: "No, you'd learn better by putting up with the wait like normal people." Priide says, following Scarlet.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:18:04)</font> Gale: "Very well!" Gale gives a brief smile and a nod, heading off to continue the reparations to the town.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:18:11)</font> Rai: "Oooh, uh... Sky Stealer... uh no, that's not good..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:18:16)</font> Tai Zi smiles and plucks a qill from her back and hands it to Rai. "There, you got something."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:18:26)</font> Rai turns away, not paying attention to anything Pride is saying.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:18:53)</font> Rai absent mindedly tucks the quill behind his ear before rambling on with more name ideas as he wanders off with T`zaran.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:20:06)</font> Tai Zi shakes her head turning to catch up with Priide and Scarlet<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:20:14)</font> T`zaran: "Definitely not. We need something powerful, something noble...Golden Sun? Star Fury?" He doesn't seem to find either suitable, continuing to ponder.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:20:39)</font> Rai: "Heaven's Lightning?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:21:07)</font> T`zaran: "Ooh. Now that I like!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:21:44)</font> Rai: "Sweet! I've still got some enamel left, we can paint it on the side!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:23:00)</font> T`zaran: "What do you think, Gale? Fox?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:23:21)</font> Fox: "Fine by me."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:23:29)</font> Gale: "It should work."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:25:26)</font> Rai whistles for Ari, who he'll need to hoist him up high enough to paint.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:27:03)</font> Myllinnia: It takes a while but soon the black ship has a new painted name.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:31:21)</font> Myllinnia: The ship for the most part is quiet. The village is quite busy. Everyone is talking about how heroic you all were, though Rai gets still distrustful looks."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:32:46)</font> Rai promises everyone wild riches once he's done plundering them from all the villains with them currently.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:46:26)</font> Myllinnia: After the day ends and the villagers are quite happy with the help they have gotten. Everyone goes to bed and dreams. For Gale, the whipsers of Malfeas continue to taunt him while others get more peaceful dreams.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:46:57)</font> Tai Zi doesnt go to bed she sits outside the house looking at the woods.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:47:38)</font> Priide Kittee sits with Tai, holding the Lunar's hand quietly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:48:16)</font> Gale wakes up, shaking away the nightmares as he hops out of bed. He knows what the city wants from him, but it won't be so easy for the demon to corrupt him, ever.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:48:58)</font> Tai Zi looks over at Priide. "if something happens will you forgive me? I know I cant ask that of you but.."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:49:24)</font> Priide Kittee hugs Tai. "Of course I will, my moonlight."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:49:27)</font> Rai: *Scarlet finds Rai staring at her face as she opens the door to her room. "It's morning now!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:52:19)</font> Myllinnia: The tired Scarlet with her hair neatly aligned and her clothes sharply placed upon her blinks in surprise at the young man.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:52:32)</font> Myllinnia: "Y, yes, yes it is morning."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:53:50)</font> Myllinnia: Lilly for the most part hasn't slept and sits at a window.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:54:52)</font> Rai: "Need any help with that Vault?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:55:19)</font> Gale: Gale moves to Lilly, seeing her back at the window again... "...Lilly, are you alright?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:56:45)</font> Myllinnia: She shakes her head, "The Whispering Ones are always on me. Its hard to concentrate."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:57:14)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet looks to Rai. "We will wait for the others to come up here. You can wait a bit more longer?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:57:43)</font> Rai sighs. "You mean the *one* time I get up before you, it didn't even accomplish anything?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:58:06)</font> Tai Zi twines her fingers with Priide's and looks out over the darkened woods. "I want to go hunting today, would you mind if I did it alone?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:58:33)</font> Priide Kittee kisses Tai on the forehead. "No, love."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 15:59:11)</font> Gale takes Lilly by the hand. "I understand what you mean... But i'm here with you. Those whispering things won't harm you, not as long as i'm here..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:04:25)</font> Myllinnia: Lilly smiles and stands, "Thank you Gale."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:06:48)</font> T`zaran comes in from downstairs, Eos by his side. This time, though, there's a rather tense looking serpentine bird -- a Mospid, and a young one for those that could tell -- with its claws dug into a makeshift leather bracer that he's wearing on his wrist. The creature has its eyes covered to help keep it calm, and he whispers reassuringly to it from time to time.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:06:55)</font> Myllinnia: "Gale..." she says suddenly but falls silent for a moment., "Would it be much to ask you to not call me by name. Tell the others too could you?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:08:06)</font> Gale: "...What would you prefer?" Gale asks, heading to Rubys room. "I'll tell the others."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:10:07)</font> Tai Zi kisses Priide softly and runs off into the woods.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:11:58)</font> Priide Kittee smiles after her lover's back, heading to bed.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:12:36)</font> Myllinnia: "I will ... tell you later. Just uh... for now call me Trinity. I think... they will be happy with it like that."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:15:06)</font> Gale: "Trinity... Okay." Gale gives a nod as he approaches Ruby and Rai. "I imagine we're waiting for the others?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:19:32)</font> Myllinnia: Once everyone has gathered for the morning outside of Scarlet's room, Scarlet turns and enters the room. Going to the former storage room of the shards she goes and stands near the furtherest wall. "Everyone come inside."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:20:13)</font> Priide Kittee blinks, staring at Scarlet coldly. "What now? More secrets?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:20:23)</font> Gale gives a brief nod. "Oh... Also, since everyone is here... My sister would prefer to be called Trinity for now. or, 'Tri' for short."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:20:23)</font> Tai Zi is gone for hours, in fact the sun would be finaly starting to come up when she returns from the wood, naked save a thin coating of blood across her entire body. Ariveing home just in time to join the others, a cloth wraped loosely about her body as she comes in.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:20:35)</font> Rai: "How bout just Ni?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:21:19)</font> Priide Kittee takes Tai's hand gently, ignoring the blood on her lover's body.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:22:20)</font> Tai Zi seems to be the most relaxed she's been since the entire ordeal began, her fingers squeezeing Priide's softly, watching T'zaran and Rai.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:22:54)</font> Priide Kittee squeezes Tai's hand back, staring at Scarlet. "Well?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:23:34)</font> Myllinnia: Lilly/Trinity quivers at the sight of the blood and looks away. Scarlet gives a sigh. "Yes a secret, but not a big one. Under here is the rest of the Hill, a Manse. For years I have taken items that only you will be able to use and stored them inside here. Disappointed?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:25:41)</font> T`zaran takes the mospid to his room, so that it doesn't get spooked, and then wrinkles his nose...well before Tai comes in, one might notice. "You smell like food to Eos," he tells Tai. "I hope you're not ticklish, because she's probably going to come in and start licking you clean."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:25:45)</font> Priide Kittee: "Yes. I thought I could trust you, mum. Instead you scare my lover and keep things from us." Priide says, glaring.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:26:55)</font> Gale: Gale shakes his head. "Things change. Things have always been secret from us... But I do not care. What have you saved for us?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:26:56)</font> Tai Zi smiles softly at T'zaran. "she can lick me, I wont mind." She kneels down a bit offering her arm to Eos."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:27:28)</font> Rai quirks an eybrow at Tai, but quickly turns to Ruby and says "Yeah, what else you got for us?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:27:35)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet Ruby's eyes flash with rare anger but she calms it down quickly and turns hitting a button in the wall. Before long the entire room begins to descend." Lilly licks her lips before bitting at her nails.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:28:44)</font> Gale: Gale looks to Lil in concern. "Tri... are you okay?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:28:48)</font> Myllinnia: Suddenly it stops and a door opens into a brightly lit chamber and beyond it are all sorts of things.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:29:54)</font> T`zaran: "If she's kept secrets from us, it's been for our own good, Kittee. You know that." He chuckles a bit as Eos does exactly as expected, seeming to quite enjoy the treat on the offered arm. Trust in Ruby or not, though, he's rather startled when the room starts to move.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:30:45)</font> Priide Kittee: "Sure. You go on believing that, T`zaran."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:31:36)</font> Tai Zi watches Eos lick along her arm, closeing her eyes and leaning forward a bit, the skin of her arm and back rippeling slighly as quills begin to stprout from bare flesh, nose elongateing along with her jaw into her own short muzzel.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:32:22)</font> Rai: "You know, for someone that was so against the idea of me poking his nose into Ruby's secrets, you're awfully mad at her for keeping them."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:32:26)</font> Myllinnia: In fact this floor is bigger than the Hill itself seems. And at the center of the room is a large pillar of golden light. Various artifacts are neatly placed along walls and cabinents.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:32:55)</font> Gale: "Hrm?" Gale looks at the artifacts, wanting to say something to Priide, but deciding against it. "How many of these are there?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:34:22)</font> Myllinnia: "There are a lot, a culmination of 20 years. In a corner there are some First Age devices that even the former Realm couldn't get to function."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:41:55)</font> Tai Zi smiles softly at Eos before looking up at Tri.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:42:37)</font> T`zaran: Whatever his retort to Kittee might have been, it's cut short by the combination of the room becoming an elevator and suddenly being surrounded by more artifacts than he's ever seen outside of books.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:42:38)</font> Gale: "Hrm... Would any of these work with me?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:42:39)</font> Priide Kittee glares at Scarlet. "And how exactly did you get them down here without us noticing?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:42:58)</font> Gale: "...Magic?" Gale replies to Kittees response.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:43:20)</font> Myllinnia: Trinity stands removed biting at her finger anxiously. She tries hard to not look.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:44:04)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet nods. "Also a back door. I stoped gaining the majority of them after the first 5 years."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:44:38)</font> Tai Zi muzzel parts softly, the tip of her nose twiching at Tri. "Gale, your sister smells hungry."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:44:57)</font> Gale: "...Hungry?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:45:12)</font> Myllinnia: "No... I am not." Trinity denies emphatically.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:45:23)</font> Priide Kittee blinks at Tai. "Um, dear, why do you have a muzzle?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:46:02)</font> Rai dashes around looking and handling everything. "Ooooh, that's the best sling I've ever seen!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:46:28)</font> Tai Zi looks up at Priide, her back completely coated qith quills, they even run down her arm now, before they were only on the upper reaches of her back, the quills are also obviously barbed and sharp now, before they were actualy soft to the touch.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:47:29)</font> Priide Kittee smiles at Tai, pulling her into a hug. "It looks good on you, though."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:48:09)</font> Tai Zi lips twitch softly. "it happened when we were fighting yesterday, and when I was hunting before, it goes away."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:48:42)</font> Gale: "All of the... gold and jade items kind of hurt to look at... I don't think I can touch them..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:49:32)</font> Tai Zi stays crouches slightly moving towards Tri and sniffing at her. "They can't smell it, they cant hear it, but your stomach is churning."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:50:10)</font> Fox: "This mask looks interesting." He puts it on. Suddenly Fox is much more handsome.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:50:34)</font> Gale: Gale looks to Tai Zi, staring at her. "She's already worried enough! Whatever the hell you are playing at, say it out right. Theres no need to scare my sister further!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:50:49)</font> Rai gives Fox a thumbs up "Looks good on you!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:51:09)</font> Priide Kittee glares at Gale. "Oh, so it's okay for Scarlet to hurt Tai, but not for Tai to scare Lilly?!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:51:48)</font> Myllinnia: "No its... okay, Gale... don't worry."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:52:04)</font> Gale: He then turns to Priide. "I have said nothing about Ruby doing anything to Tai, but I have said nothing because I do not know what happened."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:52:18)</font> Myllinnia: Trinity then looks to Tai. "But if I do... I might... hurt you. Priide won't like that."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:52:28)</font> Tai Zi shakes her head at Priide. "No its okay Starlight." She looks up at Gale. "I already said what I am geting at, shes hungry, but we all had food"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:52:52)</font> Gale: "If you believe eye for an eye regardless is perfectly acceptable, thats fine. But how dare you believe my sister can be frightened by your lover. I respect you Priide, but if you believe that, my respect for you will be *lost*." he says coldly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:53:08)</font> Tai Zi smiles softly at Tri. "Sweety your hurting right now, a little pain to relieve anothers is never something to be uspet over."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:53:43)</font> Priide Kittee rolls her eyes. "You just admitted she was scared, Gale."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:54:12)</font> Myllinnia: She then nods, "Then... then... may I... just a little?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:54:39)</font> Tai Zi smiles and holds out her arms to Tri understanding in her yellow eyes. She may have lost a lot but she knows family.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:55:13)</font> T`zaran is drawn to a pair of golden bracers, elaborately detailed with sunbursts on each, a single socket in one of them that sits empty. "I owned a pair of these once," he murmurs. "Fought with them." He may be in the room with them, but he seems oblivious to what's going on. Eos, though, is entirely present, and she moves out of Trinity's way as if she knows she needs to.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:56:33)</font> Myllinnia: Trinity takes the arm gently and looks to Tai making sure it was really okay.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:57:27)</font> Priide Kittee glares at Gale again. "Some morals you have." She moves to get between Tai and Lilly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:57:56)</font> Tai Zi relaxes, the spines on her arm flowing into nothingness, her muzzel fanishing as she nods. "I did it myself this morning, just leave me a little."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 16:59:43)</font> Myllinnia: As Priide nears Trinity takes takes a soft bite closing her eyes.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:00:25)</font> Tai Zi hisses softly and holds up a arm keeping Priide back. "Remember when I gave you a bit of my blood? She needs some too."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:01:14)</font> Priide Kittee: "...All right."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:02:03)</font> Myllinnia: Trinity is there for some a very long time but only a minute passes before she releases with a shuddering and conteneted sigh. "T, thank you Sister Tai."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:02:43)</font> Gale: "Morals?" Gale says to Priide, coldly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:03:11)</font> Gale: "Morals? I almost *died* trying to defend my fucking sister! I gave my goddamn life almost." He says, getting into her face, looking her right in the eyes.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:03:29)</font> Gale: "My 'morals' to defend her got me bleeding out on the floor, watching her get impaled as i could do nothing."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:03:49)</font> Gale: "If Ruby harmed Tai... Where the fuck was your indignation. Where the fuck did your righteous anger go in trying to defend her?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:04:08)</font> Priide Kittee glares right back. "And you seem to think it's okay for her to consume Tai's blood? Some fucking morals you have!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:04:11)</font> Myllinnia: Trinity blinks and moves between Gale and Pride. "Please Gale, let it go."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:04:30)</font> Gale: "Nowhere? Nothing? Until you have even tried giving your very life to protect her. To support her, I want to hear nothing about your so called 'morals'!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:04:36)</font> Tai Zi smiles and kisses Tri's cheek, leaveing a lipstick mark of blood. "your a lot like me, blood is the coin of our power"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:05:38)</font> Gale: "Tai allowed her. Tai asked her if thats what she wanted." Gale says coldly. "Until you can learn some gods damned respect..." Gale says, moving away. "My respect for you is *gone*, Priide."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:06:30)</font> Priide Kittee: "Oh, fuck *you*, Gale! I'm sick of your fucking lectures!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:07:09)</font> Rai has wandered by T'zaran, with his hands clearly in his pocket saying "Nice bracers!" before wandering away, his back turned when T'zar is startled by the bracers vanishing<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:07:19)</font> Myllinnia: "Please do not fight." Trinity says worriedly between them.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:07:40)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet Ruby sighs heavily but doesn't step into the middle of the argument... yet.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:08:51)</font> Gale: Gale ignores Priide, instead hearing another voice in his head... 'Tell yourself again that these are not truly your friends... ' Gale retorts under his breath "Oh shut the fuck up malfeas."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:09:22)</font> Tai Zi looks at herself and stands up very carefuly useing the cloth covering her to whipe off most of the blood on her with out exposing herself too much. She steps up behind Priide and wraps her arms tightly around her. "Priide, she didnt know this would happen to me." She looks up at Gale. "Your sister needs blood, my body is just as much Priide's as it is my own, unless you want to feed her yourself stop now."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:10:45)</font> Gale: Turning to Tai, the steel in his voice starts to die down. "...Tai Zi, I would not have had so much a problem were it not the way you seemed to be looking at my sister more like Prey... If you had explained, or if Priide hadn't mouthed off, I would have listened."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:11:17)</font> T`zaran would normally at least try to be the peacemaker. But his attention is so focused on the bracers that he remains oblivous to his surroundings...until they vanish, and he's abruptly snapped back to the present. He hadn't really even noticed Rai, so his attention doesn't immediately turn to the one responsible. "No, it wasn't them. The ones I remember...they burned with holy fire,&gt;<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:11:21)</font> Tai Zi looks at Gale. "if you starve her, she will be prey, not mine, but others."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:12:15)</font> Rai points across the room. "Are those them over there?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:12:26)</font> Gale: "If she needs blood... She can take from me." He says, before looking to Tai again. "...Or you, should you deem it alright. I'm just..." Gale shakes his head. "I'm still not right, he's twisted even that."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:13:12)</font> Tai Zi looks hard at Gale. "You, me, and her, we were all damaged just as much as we were empowered, but even this morning you were more concerned with what we thought about you, did you ask her what she needed, what the change had done to her? Why did it take a animal sniffing your sister to realise that she needs help Gale?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:15:38)</font> T`zaran: "...and I stood alone against the darkness with them." He shakes his head. "That was...odd. My memory, but not mine." At Rai's gesture, he looks over to the other set and shakes his head. "Not the same. The ones I -- thought -- I saw were different, too. Just similar enough, it seems."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:17:32)</font> Gale: "I have been concerned for her since T'zaran said she walked a darker path then I. If I do not always show concern, that does not mean it is not always there." He says, calmly. "I am showing concern now because she was frightened, and in pain."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:18:08)</font> Gale: "Were you listening when I said that I would help her? And you? Was that a lack of concern? When I smiled to her and was there for her this morning, was that a lack of concern?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:18:23)</font> Myllinnia: Trinity shakes her head, "I.. its okay, really. Its been a tough few days. Its okay if everyone is worried and afraid. Please do not take it out on each other."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:18:26)</font> Priide Kittee hugs Tai. "You are *not* an animal, my moonlight. Never speak of yourself that way, please."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:18:56)</font> Tai Zi shows Gale the wound on her arm. "She is my family too Gale, i will gladly give my blood to ease her quaking stomach."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:20:44)</font> Tai Zi licks Priide's neck softly. "we are okay, we have changed, we are all scared, we are all hurting in someway. Now stop, go and pick out a few toys that Scarlet found for us, it is no worse than her hiding our calabration gifts so we wouldn't find them."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:21:47)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet oddly gives a slight chuckle at that thinking to herself something pleasant it seems, before she shakes her head.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:21:50)</font> Priide Kittee: "...All right. For you."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:23:31)</font> Gale: Gale shakes his head. "My apologies. We have many more things to concern ourselves with. I over reacted." He looks away, a but wounded by his own behavior.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:23:31)</font> Tai Zi smiles and sits down on the floor leting Priide go.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:24:17)</font> Tai Zi looks up at Gale. "Thats the good thing about family Gale, even if you fuck up royaly they will forgive you."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:25:18)</font> T`zaran seems a little puzzled about all the tension, but it seems to be ebbing, so he relaxes a bit. Going over to check out the pair of bracers, he picks them up. "Look at the patterns on this one. The sun partially behind a storm cloud, and lightning bolts." He grins over at Rai. "If I wear these, I think people are going to assume I'm the captain of the ship. You might be out of a job if you're not careful!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:25:53)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet watches the group, spying T'zaran, Fox, and Rai happily shopping it appeared.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:25:53)</font> Priide Kittee smiles down at Tai, before going and taking a set of grey metal bracers and anklets, then returning to sit next to her lover.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:26:09)</font> Rai looks crestfallen.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:26:26)</font> Gale: He instead turns to Lilly, "I should show more concern for you as well, I have not. I am worried for you, Tri... If you ever, ever need to talk, know that I am always here. I will be with you, always. I won't abandon you in your time of need."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:26:52)</font> Tai Zi figits slighly leaning aginst Priide, watching T'zaran and Rai.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:26:56)</font> Rai bends over behind the column those are on and comes up holding the sun burst pair. "Are you sure these aren't the ones you were looking for? I mean, the sun is totally more about holy fire when it's clear than when it has some storm cloud in front of it..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:27:18)</font> Priide Kittee kisses Tai gently. "Are you okay, my moonlight?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:27:46)</font> Tai Zi smiles and nods a bit. "I am, just have things on my mind."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:27:56)</font> Myllinnia: "I know you won't Gale," she says softly and smiles gently as she sits down.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:28:04)</font> Priide Kittee: "Oh? Do you want to talk about them?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:28:26)</font> Gale: "They were right though. Its just... No, theres no excuse."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:28:38)</font> Tai Zi smiles and looks at Priide out of the corner of her eyes. "Not right now."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:29:35)</font> Gale: "I can't say anything to make an excuse. I can only make up for it with actions. If you need to let blood, I'm here so you can shed it, as is Tai Zi. If you need someone to talk to, I have ears and am always willing to listen. If you need comfort, I am your brother, and have always tried to care for you."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:30:00)</font> Fox: "Wow look at what this staff does." Raps it once and out pops a spear blade.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:32:20)</font> Tai Zi bites her lip and nuzzels aginst Priide's cheek softly. "That is all your taking?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:32:26)</font> T`zaran considers that for a long moment. "I dunno, I mean, it is a pretty neat ship. I might even like being the captain..." He can't keep a straight face long enough to actually pull it off, though, and tosses the lightning pair to Rai. "Aw, who am I kidding. A pirate captain has to have a parrot, and I've got an Omen Dog and now a Mospid. Wrong image."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:33:59)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet nods at Fox with a warm smile. "I'm sure you will use it well Fox."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:34:32)</font> Priide Kittee nods, stroking Tai's back. "I have a feeling anything else would be a waste."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:35:48)</font> Tai Zi she nods and gives Priide a tight hug before standing up and walking over to T'zaran and Rai quietly. Looking at the artifacts they are handeling.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:36:16)</font> Rai squirms as T`zaran strings him along before shouting "Woohoo!" at the end and giving T a manly high five as he trades the bracers.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:41:10)</font> Rai pokes Tai and T`zaran... "Do you guys see... kind of a shimmer over there in the back, or am I just imagining things?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:41:35)</font> Tai Zi blinks at the poke, smileing softly but throwint a look around.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:42:06)</font> Rai walks slowly up to it, squinting and rubbing his eyes<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:42:44)</font> Gale: "Lilly, do you think you could use any of these artifacts here?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:43:15)</font> Tai Zi looks over at T'zaran. "If you and him are captan and first officer, then what is my duty?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:43:46)</font> Priide Kittee: "To not be some fool pirate?" Priide says loudly.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:44:08)</font> T`zaran fastens the sunburst bracers to his wrists after the high five, though it's clear from the way he moves his arms that they're still heavy enough to slow him down for the moment. At the poke, he turns his attention to the spot in question. "It doesn't have a different scent from the rest of the room, if there is anything there. But if it hasn't been touched in years, then it wouldn't."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:45:13)</font> Myllinnia: "No, nothing here calls to me. And the Whispering Ones assure me that something may visit us soon to help." Lilly says softly even if she winces at having her real name used.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:46:33)</font> Gale: "Those whispering ones... do their whispers harm you?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:46:43)</font> Rai: "Uh... you could be the helmsman!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:48:02)</font> Tai Zi smiles at Priide and looks to T'zaran. "What does a helmsman do?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:48:49)</font> T`zaran: "A helmsman flies the ship. Pretty critical role if, well, you CAN fly the ship."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:49:30)</font> Gale: "Heavens know Rai needs the help." Gale says a bit loudly, grinning. "But it would be sort of important to fly it."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:49:59)</font> Myllinnia: "Uh... " she says looking away, "No no... they do not hurt me."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:50:09)</font> Rai is currently distracted by the shimmering patch, and pokes around the knee-hight pillar it seems to be above.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:50:13)</font> Rai: "I *know* there's something here..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:50:37)</font> Tai Zi looks at Rai and smiles at T'zaran before returning to Priide's side.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:51:29)</font> Rai: "Someone has to have shaper eyes than me! Whoever finds the hidden button here is our lookout!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:51:42)</font> Gale: "Alright... Do you know how often you get that desire for blood shed?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:52:03)</font> Priide Kittee hugs Tai, pointedly ignoring Rai.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:52:31)</font> Rai doesn't notice Pride ignoring him becaues he's still focusing on the stupid pillar<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:53:57)</font> Rai: "Ruby, do you know how this thing works?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:54:11)</font> T`zaran: "Are you sure there's really anything there?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:54:11)</font> Tai Zi leans aginst Priide and looks around wondering where Fox went off to.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:54:12)</font> Myllinnia: "All day yesterday... and the day before. I... I didn't want to ... you know the woman and the man..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:54:35)</font> Rai raps his knuckles against what looks almost to be thin air, making a hollow thunk.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:54:44)</font> Rai: "*Something* is doing that."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:54:45)</font> Gale: "You mean the prisoners we have?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:57:08)</font> Priide Kittee raises an eyebrow at Rai. "Yes, yes, we *know* you're good at faking sounds, you don't need to demonstrate."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:57:38)</font> Rai: "No, seriously, come here, you can feel it."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:58:44)</font> Priide Kittee: "Why would I bother?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:58:59)</font> Myllinnia: "Yes the P, prisoner. But the man was dead..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:59:19)</font> Rai: "Well, you don't want to take my word for it, check yourself."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:59:27)</font> Gale: "Did you drain their blood?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:59:35)</font> T`zaran: "Well, let's see what happens when we shed some light on the matter." And with that, his anima flares to life, the golden disc on his forehead becoming instantly prominant.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 17:59:58)</font> Myllinnia: "No," she gasps in shock and nearly horror.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:00:14)</font> Gale: "...Oh."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:00:17)</font> Tai Zi stares softly at T'zaran's light, arm curling around Priide.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:00:19)</font> Gale: "What about them... then?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:01:36)</font> Priide Kittee smiles at Tai, hugging the Lunar gently and kissing her on the lips.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:01:40)</font> Myllinnia: "That was when I first noticed the desire." She says softly. "I fought it away for days though."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:02:12)</font> Myllinnia: Scarlet tilts her head, "Oh there should be some armor over there. A peculiar armor."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:02:17)</font> Gale: "I see...."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:02:20)</font> Tai Zi smiles and gives Priide's lips a soft nibble before standing and walking over twards Rai.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:02:40)</font> Gale: Gale gives a brief nod. "If you feel that urge... Please, let me or Tai Zi know."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:02:41)</font> Tai Zi: "Now where is this?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:02:58)</font> Rai hears a soft voice murmur "Solar Exalt recognized", before a midnight blue suit of armor, highlighted with eye-twisting golden angular patterns shimmers from out of view into solidity before them.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:03:12)</font> Rai: "Oooooh. Good thinking T!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:03:44)</font> Tai Zi blinks and takes a step back.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:04:13)</font> Rai whistles. "I thought I painted my armor awesomely, but *that* is a piece of work. DIBS!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:05:02)</font> Priide Kittee: "Oh, for the love of Saturn, be *quiet*, Rai."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:06:09)</font> Myllinnia: A voice suddenly speaks seemingly everywhere much like it was on the ship but this voice is familiar as one of the Servants. "Mistress... there is a strange.... one here to see you, he insists to see you, alone."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:06:59)</font> T`zaran can't quite resist teasing Rai a bit more. "It recognized me. What if the security systems consider you an invader now if you try to put it on..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:08:28)</font> Rai: "I claim captain's right of first spoils to at least try! If It tries to kill me, it's all yours!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:09:18)</font> Priide Kittee sighs. "I said. Be. Quiet. Rai." The Sidereal walks over, takes Tai's hand, and leads her lover upstairs.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:09:40)</font> Tai Zi blinks and follows as Priide pulls her along.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:10:17)</font> Gale: "Wait, Priide, Tai..." Gale nods to Lil, and moves to them both, not cutting them off from where they were moving, but making it known he wanted to talk to them.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:10:42)</font> Tai Zi blinks at Gale. "Starlight.."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:10:57)</font> Priide Kittee: "What?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:11:00)</font> Rai does magnanimously offer T`zaran his awesomely painted armor to wear.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:12:02)</font> Gale: "I again wanted to apologize for my actions... Tai Zi, if Tri asks of you to drain her blood, I have no problems with it. 'Tis my error, and I wanted to make my regret known."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:12:51)</font> Tai Zi smiles softly and nods. "I will gladly donate to her Gale."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:14:41)</font> T`zaran: "After you, then." He gestures toward the armor, accepting the painted armor graciously. Then, momentarily more serious, he notes, "If there are any security systems, you know I'll help you deal with them. But I think Scarlet Ruby would have said something if there were."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:17:11)</font> Rai nods and also looks serious for a moment "I know you would. Now help me cimb into this, it looks just a little big, but I bet I can buckle it up."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:19:57)</font> T`zaran isn't used to working with full suits of armor, particularly not like this one, but he does what he can to help.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:20:40)</font> Gale: "Thank you, Tai. Its just... I don't have an excuse, do I? I snapped."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:21:37)</font> Tai Zi smiles softly at Gale. "I dont have any memmories Gale, but from what i've seen you love your sister, that is what matters, dont make a excuse, dont make a explanation, just keep moveing, its all we can do."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:21:55)</font> Priide Kittee looks down. "I... I'm sorry as well, Gale. I was just frustrated with how mum had treated Tai."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:22:17)</font> Gale: "How had she treated Tai? I should have asked."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:22:23)</font> Gale: "May I ask? can we talk on it?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:22:45)</font> Tai Zi bites her lip a bit but nods. "If Priide is okay with it, i am"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:23:41)</font> Priide Kittee looks to Tai. "Are you sure, love?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:24:15)</font> Tai Zi sighs and nods. "Others will find out eventually anyway, but I'd rather not talk about this in public."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:26:12)</font> Gale: "It can be said in private if you wish no one else to hear it. Or if you wish not to say it, that is alright."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:26:23)</font> Priide Kittee: "Tai?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:27:00)</font> Rai struggles with getting the thing on and adjusted for the better part of half an hour, but finally gets it on and fitting right. "Here goes nothing!" he says, his voice muffled by the helmet, before fading completely from sight.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:27:07)</font> Tai Zi nods a bit and gives Priide a hug. "Let's just find a room and you can ask what you want Gale."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:27:09)</font> Rai: "Did it work?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:27:35)</font> Priide Kittee nods, leading Gale and Tai upstairs to her room.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:28:02)</font> Tai Zi follows Priide.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:29:43)</font> Gale follows, and if he's the last one in, closes the door.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:30:19)</font> Priide Kittee sits on her bed, lifting Tai into her lap, then looks at Gale. "Well?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:30:57)</font> Gale: "You said Ruby hurt Tai? How? Thats my first question, its hard to really understand if I know nothing."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:30:59)</font> Tai Zi curls up aginst Priide on the bed closing eyes then turning head and opening them to look at Gale.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:31:44)</font> Priide Kittee's eyes narrow. "She kept implying my moonlight was nothing more than an animal."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:32:50)</font> Gale: "Do you remember what she said specifically?" Gale sits down. "I am not trying to doubt you... But I know Ruby. She cares for all of us. But recently, things have changed."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:33:21)</font> Tai Zi lets out a long breath. "She said I may be going into heat Gale."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:34:01)</font> Gale: "..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:34:02)</font> Gale: "...Okay."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:34:16)</font> Gale is not sure what to say about that.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:34:52)</font> Tai Zi sighs. "Basicly that if I can control it that i'm not a animal, that if I can't I am, not in those words but just about them."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:35:20)</font> Gale: "I see."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:35:20)</font> Priide Kittee nods.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:35:32)</font> Gale: "I don't mean to make fun of the situation, but..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:35:36)</font> Gale: "Thats not what I was expecting...."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:36:42)</font> Gale: "But... I'm not sure I could actually help with this. Um... Well, i've never had to deal with it before. But I know you are not an animal, Tai Zi."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:37:54)</font> Tai Zi nods. "I know, and I dont think I am, but its still something I may have to deal with, and it upset Priide, how Scarlet said it, thats why she was so upset." She smiles and squeezes Priide's hand.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:38:30)</font> Priide Kittee nods.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:38:57)</font> Gale: "Ruby says things in ways she doesn't mean. I do not mean to make this into all about me, but... When she was angry at me, for what I did... I confronted her about it. She didn't mean it to sound the way it did. Now, maybe its different for you two, but... Thats my experience."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:39:19)</font> Gale: "In the end, i'm just trying to give my advice. I would be angry at Ruby too, if she insisted I or Lilly was a beast."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:39:25)</font> T`zaran knows where Rai is. Where he has to be, but he still doesn't see him, only orienting again when Rai speaks. "Wow. Yeah. Yeah, it's working all right."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:39:30)</font> Gale: "So there's no reason that you should feel bad about that."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:40:06)</font> Rai: "Woohoo! Thanks again T, I *never* would have thought to do that on my own. I owe you one. First haul? You get first pick, anything you want."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:40:49)</font> Tai Zi nods smiling slightly. "I apprecate that Gale."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:40:59)</font> T`zaran: "Deal! I'd high five you if I could see your hand!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:41:24)</font> Rai drops his cloak in order to exhange high fives.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:41:35)</font> Rai: "Now lets go see where the rest of my crew went."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:41:54)</font> T`zaran: "After you!"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:42:21)</font> Rai exits.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:42:24)</font> Priide Kittee nods as well. "Anything else you wanted to talk about?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:42:32)</font> Gale: "As I said with Lilly, if you need support, I am here. If you need someone to talk to, I am here. Of course, I imagine you two have one another for that as well."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:42:53)</font> Gale: "No, that was it... For the most part. I wanted to understand the situation, so I wouldn't say anything stupid. Or make another outburst."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:43:03)</font> Priide Kittee: "Of course. Why wouldn't we?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:43:43)</font> Gale: "I merely said that since I imagine that i'm not the first person either of you would go to." he smiles.<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:43:56)</font> Gale: "I'd ask if you wouldn't be so hard on Rai too, but, well, Rai is *Rai*."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:45:59)</font> Tai Zi smiles a bit and gives Priide a hug. "Thank you Gale."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:47:00)</font> Priide Kittee hugs Tai back. "I wouldn't be so hard on Rai if he didn't act the fool all the time."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:47:18)</font> Priide Kittee: "No, wait, I take that back; I'm not sure it *is* an act."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:47:37)</font> Gale: "Its..."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:47:44)</font> Gale: "Oh, i'd say fifty-fifty."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:48:06)</font> Gale: "There is a very clever man in Rai. Or Rai is just a clever man who hides his actual smarts."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:51:24)</font> Priide Kittee: "Are you sure?"<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:52:31)</font> Gale: "Yeah, I'd say I'm sure. He might be rowdy, but... Rai is also one of my best friends."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:52:36)</font> Gale: "I'd trust him with my life."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:55:25)</font> Priide Kittee: "Your risk."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:56:10)</font> Gale: "I'm not the smartest man, I won't hide that."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:57:09)</font> Gale: Getting up, Gale gives a brief nod. "You two take care of yourself, okay? I am glad we had this talk, it felt nice."<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:57:46)</font> Tai Zi nods and smiles. "have a nice night Gale, and tell Tri that if she needs me I will always be happy to help<br><br>
<font size="1">(10/12/09 18:57:56)</font> Priide Kittee: "Oh, we will." Priide leers at Tai.<br><br>
