* Kulvier has joined #terranotos
(Hello my freaky lil' darlings.)
Howdy!
*shakes self out of his reveire)
Ummm...I missed it completely, didn't I
So yeah. Ty got tired an hour ago, and Mory left a litte after that. Basically, they and Jack wandered through the town, looking at the upcomign festival.
Not entirely.
I can stil ldo a Kul/Mitzu gaiden, if you want.
*sill do
Mitzu, isn't that the chick who kept rolling her eyes at Kul when he was being a hard-ass?
Ayep.
*still?
Cool. ^_^
Lets
She's the straight m- woman.
*nod* Don't mind me if I don't do a nick-change.
Lol
(Also, do be aware that any direction you point, I'll gladly look at and consider. I'm adlibbing a *lot* tonight...)
Ok, it's ok. You must be pretty blah
(I just didn't prepare. Been watching kids al lday.)
(also, I HATE this keyboard.)
So have I. e_e
(It makes me make tpyso.)
(*kicks keyboard*_
My fellow employees are all kids
*facedesk*
Or act like it.
Ouch.
You know, they have these wonderful things caleld shotguns.
*Shrug*
I own a crossbow, more painful
*laughs*
Anyhow! You want I should have the moogle load the save, or keep the memory card in the disk case?
WEll, it could be like a FF6 type deal, the multi-path part
it basically is.
Desil/Raza/Jack are wandering around town.
Kul and Mitzu are still in the Inn.
Same save, different section.
Ok. WE'll load from there
Or, well, were, when DRJ left them.
*nod*
Lol. Is this the Imp scene?
* The Moogle kicks the Imp in the groin and loas the save himself. He shakes a fist at the Imp as the world resumes.
* Mitzu is at a table in the Inn's lobby, looking over a set of blueprints she, um, borrowed from Altercation Inc during the battle. They didn't come in handy, but she's still keepignthem.
Kulvier, an odd an ominous name to most. But a beautiful one by Okami standards. THe night must have taken him deeply, for he never heard the others leave. He pulled on his brethes and boots, slung his shirt over his arm and headed down the stairs. "Hmmm....where is everyone?"
They all left to talk to Eric.
* Mitzu traces a finger over some random line on the blueprints.
"Ah, the Geomancer who walks an eerily simalr path as my own?" He took a seat near her, curious to what she was looking at. "What's that?"
Blueprints of the big mechanical spider thing you took down. Didn't think yo ucould do that by yourselves...
No, Eric's the nervous executive. I foget the new guy's name...
(*forget. I hate tpyos, I hate my dad's keyboard with a passion.)
"Things have gotten easier sinse I stopped letting my mind drop into the Darkness that permiates my profession." He nodded. "I forgot it too. Ah well, I'll remember it eventually. What do they want to see Eric for? Money?"
Ideas, I think. Everyone was really eager to give Alan what-for.
From what I heard, your darkness helped a lot. This thing had armor like... I dunno. Some heavily-armored thing. You got through it okay.
* Mitzu finally looks up fro mthe blueprints. "So what wakes you up finally?"
"I can only compare it Alexander, the Celesti. But, it was armored like ten elite Fighters...in one. I don't think it. It was evil...and dark...on a level even I wouldn't tread." Kul smirked. "Sunlight in my eyes and the gentle caress of scents."
think=like*
So you're a fuzzy poet now?
I never expect eloquence from you, ut you keep bringing it out.
Someone drop a poetry book on your head while no one was looking?
Kul stood up and stretched his arms wide. "THe only fur I have is where human has it...and my ears and tail..." He shrugged and sat down. "No, I'm intelligent, I simply don't use it very often. I never really neededto in my work."
* Mitzu nods. "Been there. No one expects the muscle to know what they're saying.
(Shinryu's going DOWN)
(Good for you!)
(and that was amazingly random.)
(Heh, I do give my chars depth, but I make others work to see it.)
(I've noticed.)
(i'm trying that a bit with Zane...)
* Mitzu leans back and looks up at the ceiling. She pauses a bit, and says, "Alan may be a bastard, but that mahcine of his is pretty damn brilliant..."
"THey only look at the top layer and feel they understand all there is to know of them." Kul holded his arms across his chest.
* Mitzu nods, then says what she's just said above. YAY retcon!
* Mitzu thinks for a bit. "I still haven't gotten a straight answer out of anyone. How *did* you all take it down? It's almost impervious to physical smashing."
"...It...was... Well..." He winced as he thought about that battle. "It took all I had...TWICE! to due real damage to it." He shook his head. "Well...parts are fuzzy to me. I lost myself to my rage. I just...let myself go. I swung and my blade nearly took it's legs off."
* She blinks, and looks at the blueprints again. "...The ankles do look a bit weak... But still, you nearly cleaved them off? Impressive."
...I apologize if I seem a bit obsessed. I just haven't seen something like this... ever.
"I'm strong Mitzu, I won't deny that." He looked at her with a slight grin. "But, that thing was definately a challenge. Besides, I used what I knew of living beasts. If they're big, go for the legs, drop them and bring them to YOUR level."
* Mitzu smiles a bit. "It worked, too. I'll keep that one in mind."
"No one has Mitzu. I prefer steel to steel rather than projectiles and...whatwever that thing had."
* Mitzu nods. "Amen..."
"It wasn't even MAGIC! For Celesti's sake! It was...a cannon the likes I can't even term!"
* Mitzu keeps nodding. She scoots over, so Kul can sit down and check the blueprints too, if he cares.
* Faith has quit IRC (Quit: )
Kul's finger instantly pointed out a hidge joint. "There. That's what I aimed for. It reminded me of a knee. If I could hit it, It would cripple, or so I thought."
That's one of its weaker points, yeah. That and the cannon on its back.
"I couldn't reach it and I didn't want to try." He looked at her. "You know, it's refreshing to talk stategicly with someone who appreciates calculation of battle and survival, over the rants of childish needs and lust, or the banter of a money-grubbing."
I have nothign against money - I made damn sure I'd be getting a paycheck out of helping you all give Alan what he deserves - but yeah.
Besides, he might know his way around steel, but he didn't seem that imaginative.
"I understand, I like money too, but I'd like to be around to use it."
* Mitzu nods.
* She thinks for a moment, and the nspaks quietly. "Kul, how many people have you killed?
(*then speaks)
(Woot! Shinryu is DoWN!)
"Imagination is hard to come by when the mind is locked in numbers and mathmatics. I mean..." He fell silent for a moment. "I've kill about...four hundred people..."
(Shinryu?)
*Mitzu blinks. "Didn't expect that many... I've killed seven. Face-to-face and all, no back-stabbing. I could've , but never have..."
(he's playing Dawn of Souls. Speaking of which, have you beaten him down yet?)
(Oh, NM, he won.)
* She continues thinking for a moment. "You ever... felt good about it? A soul-searing pride in what you've just done, who you'v ejust killed?"
"I face then head on. Part of my training was to kill a hundred men with a sword..." His eye twitched. "I midnight black sword...symbolic to draw out their souls for darkness."
I supose that would be a 'yes', then... Then you know what it's like. More than I do, I guess.
"...I felt empty Mitzu. Completely and utterly empty."
....Ah.
You're a better person than I am, then.
"No...I'm not. There were those I took great joy in slaughtering."
* Mitzu nods again, slowly and sadly this time.
Alan would've killed us, happily, just for a few extra coins. I don't think Raza and Desil would ever do that. I know Jac wouldn't - that why I'v ebeen with him for so long.
To make sure he didn't turn out as bad as I did. He's got potential, too much potential.
Kul stared at the table. "There was a point were I'd have kill all of you for a better pay. But...I can't now. I never can again."
Same for me.
"Jack...there's so much he can accomplish. So much he can become. I don't want him to see the path I walked. I don't want to see that path any more. I know when I'll be free, when i face my mentor."
I am my mentor... I have to face her every day. It's not fun.
Part of me wants to make sure Jack can keep his mind on te job. The other part wants him to figure ou that Raza is a woman and that he's a man. So that he'll have something to work *for*. Right now, it's just 'for the fun of it' and 'why not?'.
"Perhaps you need only seek the strength of anyone who understands, who can lend support when you need it." He shook his head lightly.
Kul threw his arms up. "And I want Raza to realize those games are just going to get her pregnant and in misery for a moment of passion. There's a lot to lose and she seems to be oblivious to it."
True... I didn't say passion was a smart thing to do. But it still pulls you through a battle.
Besides, I've never been there. The grass is greener o nthe other side of the hill and all that.
"Passion...I haven't known passion befor."
Then how do you know it's so bad?
"Because I once escorted a girl through the Depths. She wanted to go home to her family. The man she THOUGHT loved her left her after a moment of passion bore responsabilities he didn't want."
Someone else's passion. They ran away.
If you're going to run away from a battle, was it worht fighting it in the first place?
"Had I stayed in my village, I'd likely be a Hunter and had a family by now."
"...I ran...for the first time when she denied me." He sighed.
* Mitzu lightly punches him in the shoulder. "From you? That's not a smart move... on many levels."
"HA!" He grined at her. "I'd have been a good father, had I not fallen into the darkness." He shrugged.
Exactly. You've got a heart in there somewhere. It's just covered by midnight.
I think everyone does. ...Well, I *hope* everyone does...
brb
"I want the midnight gone Mitzu." He stopped short of a rant and grabbed her shoulders. "You have a heart Mitzu. If you didn't you wouldn't be talking like this."
K
(back; sib was crying. He's in parents' bed now.)
It could all just be some clever ruse.
But thanks.
* Mitzu smiles. Not a tiny, bemused smile; a *smile*.
He looked at her. His eyes arresting, but concerned. "Look Mitzu, I like you. You make me feel better, you help me come to terms with path demons, you help me. That means a lot. I concider you part of my pack. To an Okami, that means the world."
* She blinks. "...A pack member?" She stares in a bit of disbelief. She has, at least, an inkling of what that is.
He smirked. "You're not family, but you are trusted to absolute loyalty. If I were laying unable to fight, I would trust my life to you."
...I don't have words for it, but I understand the idea...
* Mitzu takes hold of Kul's shoulders.
Same to you.
Session Time: Mon Feb 28 00:00:00 2005
Kul blushed, something he'd not often done in many years. He felt a lot of conflicting feelings and was unsure what to do, but, he was Okami and trusted his instincts. He leaned in and kissed her gently. "Thank you Mitzu."
* Mitzu kisses back, a bit suprised but not at all worried.
I'm glad Raza isn't here. She'd get ideas unsafe for Jack...
Kul was utterly surprised to be kissed back. He blinked and blushed. "I'm glad she's not here too... Jack might be in danger." He looked a bit unsure. "So...what happens now?"
I have no idea. I've never done much beyond this, and even then, only as a child.
So...
He looked at her. "Perhaps we simply need to stop thinking so much and just act on instinct." He blushed crimson and voiced a thought he'd never normally voice. "Besides, maybe we can study more personally."
* Mitzu turns a bit red, too. "Well, everyone else should be gone for a while... >.>"
Might as well get it out of the way now, so it doesn't come up at the wrong time.
Kul, blushing, took her hand. "Or it might just bring us closer together."
* Mitzu accepts. "Maybe. it'd be nice to be close to someone..."
(...and... cut?)
Kul nodded and led Mitzu back upstairs, where the door would remain shut until they were disturbed.
And, save piuint. :p
point*
Lol. This will certainly put both groups into confusion. Lol
* The moogle hangs a Do Not Disturb sign on the door, saves, takes the memory card, and marks soemthing off in his strategy guide. "Hidden Cutscene One, kupo."
YAY for the resolution of sexual tension!
Raza will be unable to dredge up some witty response or anything.
And/or excalaton thereof.
*escalation. And yeah, that's gonna be fun.
For fear of getting Mitzu pissed
And the thief will just be in disbelieve.
*nod*
Jack and the other guy will just be stunned
Heh.
And Geomancer will be clueless
Crazy ol' Geomancer.
*remembers his name* Ladis.
*facedesks*
LADIS!!!
o.O
I gotta write it down.
What's the thief's name again?
Desil.
He's a Gambler, too, jsut with Thief-y abilities.
*skills, not abilities. minor diff.
Ah
*laughs* Wow. yay amnesia.
It's offical too EK, I think I'm stearing Kul towards the Knight profession.
Errr, Magic Knight
*laughs* You want irony? Ty's steering his Knight in I-DEMON towards being a DK.
Oh.
I can see that...
LOL!!!!
Besides. It could work too.
And our Paladin has more libido than Raza sometimes. But yeah, it could.
just take Shadow as your first element.
Nice smooth transition.
But yeah.
When they used that technique and cast those 4 spells on him, it trigger a change
I'm looking forward to stuff now...
IT could work, Magical backlash
I dunno. I don't plan to bust out the four-elments technique again soon... But I can see some other stuff.
I'll think about it.
But yeah. Campaign's taking an upturn.
Yeah it is
I was getting a bit annoyed with Kul's dredging and moping.
*nod*
I wonder how Jack will handle the same situation with Raza...
...she'll probably just get riled up enough one day, knock him down and strip him.
LOL!
As long as Kul isn't around to police that
Though...he couldn't exactly claim innocence
Indeed.
*yawn* but I gotta hit the sack. I'm pooped. Kids, Gming, and then GMing again...
Hmmm...what if Mitzu got pregnant? o_o That would be very interresting.
...
I guess we'll find out next year, hunh?
give or take.
LOL!!!
Since it takes about a session a game-day.
52 weeks = 52 or les game days = first month of pregnancy.
^_^ Sometimes 2 days per session
True
Heh.
So yeah. bed bed bed.
later! Same bat time, same bat channel!
Righto.
