Session Ident: #erevis
* Logging #erevis to 'logs\EsperNet\#erevis.20080107.log'
<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-588.3.2
<DeathStar> Location: L.A.
<DeathStar> 6* And so, another adventure begins
* Drasek` is vanished! Which just means he's in his room for the time being.
* Chad`Winters leans back from his chair, books strewn on his desk.
* Angela sits out in the lobby, tapping on her datapad.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits in her room, meditating hard.
* Ariel sits quietly on the roof, taking a break from her training. All of the damage people have done up here make it all the more challenging.
<Kit> NRP: Haven't most training been done on the third floor because of the shuttle?
<DeathStar> NRP: Darien's going to take it out on her sexually.
<Kit> 6Megumi attempts to follow Erevis' example again, though she's mostly just. Sitting there.
* Angela leans back and keeps working, seeing as the lobby is nice and quiet.
<Ariel> NRP: If there's not room for both, something is wrong. But... weren't YOU the one that put the most holes in the roof, Kit? =P
* Drasek` steps out of his room, he waves his hand to blow away some smoke and shuts his door, moving out toward the lobby.
<Angela> "Hello Drasek." *she doesn't even look, the scent is enough*
<Kit> NRP: I've broken the floor from the third to the first once in a while, yeah. Roof has the shuttle on it. @_@
<Drasek`> Names Rufus, pet. *he says in an higher pitched voice.*
* Chad`Winters stands up, deciding to take a break. He rubs his face as he moves over to make some tea.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis finally opens her eyes. A look of contemplation on her face.
<Angela> "Oh I see." *she smiles and taps away still*
<Drasek`> Figured since you can change bits about yourself, I could do the same. Right?
<Kit> 6Megumi doesn't, trying her best to remain still and unaware of Erevis quitting.
* Angela giggles a little and looks up. "Rufus is a cute name, do you want me to use it?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis finally stands again. She turns, peering at herself in the mirror, which is curious since she rarely does that.
<Drasek`> Call me whatever you want, as long as you'll shag me. *he plops down*
* Angela grins at him, "Mmmm... I'll consider it. So how are you?"
<Drasek`> I slipped like a fool and hurt my tootsie and now I have you considering a shag or not. All in all i'm great. *he gives a bland thumbs up*
* Chad`Winters grabs his cup of tea and he takes a drink. He moves over to the tact suit, staring down at it
<Kit> 6Megumi senses an amiss in the bed and opens her eyes slowly, peering toward Erevis quietly.
* Angela smiles and plays with her hair a bit, pulling some back over her shoulder. "All better now?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis reaches up, brushing back some hair from her face. She looks at Megumi. "I have decided where I must go now. I should speak with the others."
<Drasek`> I'll be fine. *he glances at her being girly and just shakes his head, turning on the holo-vid* You glad you took one for Aya?
<Kit> <Megumi> Where you must go?
<Kit> 6Megumi hops to her feet. 1"You mean your memories have finally allocated properly?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps out into the hallway with that.
* Angela tilts her head and seems to consider, "I hope I prove to be glad about it. Though I'm not exactly suffering."
<Drasek`> No. You're not at all. It's most curious.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pauses, trying to decide how to do a group meeting. She then knocks on Chad's door first.
<Kit> 6Megumi tilts her head, then wanders out as well, closing the door behind them.
* Chad`Winters glances back at his door than moves over to it. He opens it and looks at Erevis. 1"What's up?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis talks to him without looking him in the eyes. "I am holding a group meeting about what my next move in regards to the Progenitor relic."
<Angela> "Curious? WHy is that?"
<Chad`Winters> Alright, when?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> This moment.
<Drasek`> No reason. *he looks up from her breasts, then looks back to the holovid*
<Chad`Winters> Alright. 6He nods and steps out, shutting the door.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods, then moves and knocks on Ariel's door. When she gets no response, she tries Darien, who opens it. They exchange words, and Darien walks to the lobby with annoyed attitude.
* Kit is now known as Megumi
* Angela smiles a little and looks over at Darien as he steps in. "Hey Darien."
* Megumi follows Erevis from place to place. 1"Are you sure it is a good idea to pursue such things when your own memories are still shuffled?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> This must be done.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods, sitting down on the couch.
<Drasek`> Yo, Chief. You look pissy.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis informs Zephyr, who yawns and walks over to join the others. Erevis frowns, considering where Ariel might be.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr yawns and flops down on the couch beside Darien, taking up most of it
<DeathStar> <Darien> This is my happy look.
* Angela giggles a little.
* Chad`Winters moves over and grabs a chair pulling it up beside the couch. He sits down, crossing his arms
<Drasek`> Ah, show me you're pissy look.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien changes nothing about his face. "This is my pissy look."
<Drasek`> Brilliant.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Megumi, do you know where Ariel might be?
<Megumi> ...I will check upstairs, beloved. Perhaps she is practicing.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods, then moves for the lobby.
<Angela> "Now now Darien... keep that up and you'll start looking like Warren."
* Megumi eyes her leaving, then heads for the stairs, mostly for the third floor.
<DeathStar> <Darien> He's my hero.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien cranes his head to peer at Erevis when she steps in.
<Angela> "I bet he is. He's everyone's hero."
* Angela follows Darien's gaze to Erevis.
<Chad`Winters> He's a poser. 6He takes a drink from his cup as he looks at Darien
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't let Warren hear you call him a poser.
* Drasek` just remains quiet, not knowing the guy.
<Angela> "He'll have men kidnap you and install a chip into your brain."
<Chad`Winters> He knows I'll screw with his vicodin if he tries anything.
* Megumi finds nothing on the third floor, and having heard nothing on the second, checks the roof. Hey, it's all that's left.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis goes to stand in front of everyone, as if she were going to give a speech.
* Ariel looks over as she hears the door open.
* Drasek` glances up at Erevis.
* Megumi adjusts her sunglasses, squinting. 1"...Dearest Ariel? Beloved has called for a meeting."
* Angela sits back to listen.
* Ariel nods slowly and stands. If Erevis has called a meeting, then it probally isn't frivilous.
<DeathStar> 6* Once Megumi and Ariel arrives due to GM teleporting, Erevis begins
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I have been readjusting my memory after the incident with the Progenitor relic, and I now know where Drasek and I must go to follow up on it.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans back on the couch, glancing at Ariel briefly, then back at Erevis
<Angela> "Well save us the suspense, where are we heading?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> The Erusian Ascendency.
<Drasek`> That's brilliant news. *he rubs his hands together*
* Chad`Winters raises an eyebrow
<Chad`Winters> Makes sense.
<Megumi> <Megumi> What is... Erusian Ascendency?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien clicks his tongue. "Wow. That's a long way from home."
<DeathStar> <Darien> *sucks his teeth* Race of people who claim to be servants of the Progenitors.
<Ariel> "That's... quite the trip."
<Drasek`> My kind of people, if you get what i'm saying.
<Chad`Winters> What can we expect?
<Megumi> An entire race serves beloved and Drasek?
* Megumi looks rather skeptical.
<Angela> "Jeebus, I was technically a citizen of them once."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm not sure if the race even knows they're Progentiors.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not know, Chad Winters. I am not even sure if the Ascendency will allow us to explore their ruins.
* Chad`Winters looks at Drasek. 1"Great, now Dressings going to get a fat head."
<Chad`Winters> If they don't, we use the fact that you two are progenitors than.
<Angela> "Doubtful, they guarded those things like dogs when EarthGOV tried to look at any of thier ancient devices."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It will be...a challenge. However, leaving cannot be delayed. I wish to leave today.
<Drasek`> Already got one, mate. *gives Chad a thumbs up
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr yawns, then sits up. "Wow. When she gets a memory, she's all for it."
<Megumi> Would an erusian be convincing? We do know... two, correct?
<Angela> "Well... why don't we get official help?"
* Angela looks at Meg, who is clearly in her head and should get out.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien considers. "Hrm. We could call up Warren and have him let us talk to Myria. She's a high up."
* Chad`Winters just shakes his head at Drasek and he stands up, moving towards his apartment room
* Megumi stares blankly at Angela. She's naive, not dumb.
<Megumi> She is... high up?
* Megumi looks skeptical again.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... Ungh.
<Angela> "She's an ambassador. That's a pretty big role."
* Megumi glances away. 1"I suppose. The Famfrit ambassador never had much say, but given it being a false front, I am obliged that was a good thing."
* Chad`Winters opens the door than looks at Erevis. 1"I'll patch into Warren, give me about 3 minutes than come in."
<Angela> "Real ambassadors are the face and word of thier governments for foriegn bodies. That's not a small thing."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis bows her head. "Yes."
* Drasek` claps his hands together. "I'll need to go pack my overnight bag." He stands.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stands up, tapping his chin. "I think I'll set in on this video call, myself."
<DeathStar> *sit
<Angela> "I'll gather some stuff to bring."
* Drasek` pauses. "Can I? I'd like to meet this Warren fellow."
* Chad`Winters steps inside, his door left open. He moves over to his side table and begins turning it on
<Megumi> Beloved, how long would this... expedition be?
* Megumi seems a bit nervous, perhaps to be expected considering her last two ventures into space.
* Angela heads to her room to start packing. "Bring spare clothes Meg, a few sets."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I imagine we will be gone for quite some time.
* Angela stops.
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's 2 days out to Erusia. We'll probably spend a long time on it, if we're going ruin hunting.
<Ariel> "Are we going to be back here at all, then?"
<Angela> "Yeah... I'd bring anything you might not wanna leave behind too."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We will return to Earth.
<Megumi> Right...
<DeathStar> <Darien> I like how she omits when.
<Ariel> "I didn't mean Earth. I ment here. This building."
* Angela looks at Darien, as though tempted to ask something, then stops herself.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not know.
* Megumi looks to Erevis, then Ariel. 1"Dearest Ariel, if you were not considering so, bringing the rune blade may be wise."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I guess I better pack all my stuff.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr gets up and moves for her room.
* Angela then forgoes her fears. "Hey Darien?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yeah? 6* He glances at her, distracted.
* Ariel gives Megumi an odd look. That was a given.
<Angela> "I'm ummm... wondering what I should do with my side project."
* Chad`Winters glances over at his datapad, eyeing the time. He stands there as if waiting.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Table it, I guess.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren's face appears. He looks distracted and strained. "This is not a good time for idle chat."
* Megumi seems taken aback at the strange look, ambling off a bit frightened.
<Angela> "I wonder fi I can get it to hide itself after we leave..."
<DeathStar> (*See Episode 17 for more details*)
<Chad`Winters> Agreed. We need to talk to Myria.
<DeathStar> <Warren> ... Hm. I'll patch you through. 6* He clicks off.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves for Chad's room and steps inside. Darien hurries after.
* Drasek` steps off after Darien.
<Chad`Winters> 6Inside are numerous books piled on one table with several holodisks also piled up. There's some charts written on the walls behind them.
<Myria> 6* And the video switches to a giant, violet eye!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares. "Holy shit."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head.
* Chad`Winters blinks, eyeing his equpiment than the violet eye.
<Myria> 6* The video zooms back to Myria.
<Drasek`> Is that War-Hey she's cute.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't let Erevis hear you say that. Too late.
<Chad`Winters> Myria. 6He stares
* Angela heads into her aparment, packing a bag, packing some outfits and weapons, shells for her Samaritan, and a few of the smaller inventions before suiting up for a mission, she pulls out a tactical suit from her things, looking at it and making some adjustments to it. "Sera's body was already pretty well endowed, thank god."
<Myria> ... ... ...who are all of you people?!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien groans. "No way you've forgotten me already."
<Drasek`> You're forgettable, mate.
* Chad`Winters sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hello, Myria Arhnya
<Myria> ... ... ...no...I haven't... ... ...Danny, right?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs. "That hurts."
<Myria> Anyway, yes? Do you have any delicious Omega Cokes? The booby lady is holding mine hostage.
* Drasek` pats Darien's shoulder.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not. I have need to request a favor.
* Chad`Winters slowly looks over at Erevis
<Myria> Yes?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We must travel to the Ascendency and look into Progenitor ruins.
<Myria> Ok *blink blinks*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Will we have your government's permission?
* Megumi begins packing her and Erevis' meager clothing stores into nice, protective, rolling luggage probably bought within the last two years. Beyond the necessities and that, there's little else to do. She wheels it outside the apartment door and leans there, thinking.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr carries out 5 suitcases
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *pants*
* Megumi looks over to Zephyr, blinking.
* Angela slips it on, testing it, nodding in satisfaction, seeing what she can carry on her person, considering a second bag.
<Myria> Umm...will you?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head, not understanding.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches the bridge of his nose.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not suppose I can talk to the other you?
<Chad`Winters> I'm gonna get ready. 6He nods to Erevis and Darien and stands up, moving over to Aya's room. He knocks on her door.
<Myria> The other me? Well..ok...I guess...hold on. *steps off camera*
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stumbles into the door and opens it. "Yes, Dad?"
<Drasek`> ...bird's missing a few bits and bolts, eh?
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... other her?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks baffled.
* Ariel just accepts this as being par for the course for Myria
<Chad`Winters> I know this is kind of sudden. But we're going to Erusia for awhile and you need to pack some clothes.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien peers at Ariel, wondering when she entered Chad's room.
<DeathStar> <Aya> What's that?
* Myria walks back on to the screen, looking more mature than she did before.
<Chad`Winters> It's a planet in space.
<Myria> I speak for the Erus Ascendancy.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Oooooooooh.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis bows her head politely again, as if addressing a new person. "Arhnya. We have need to trave lt othe Ascendency and explore the Progenitor ruins."
<Chad`Winters> We'll probably be gone for awhile so...
* Drasek` just stares.
<DeathStar> <Aya> ... So?
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr leans on her suitcases
* Chad`Winters rubs the back of his head. 1"Pack enough clothes that you'll be comfortable in."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya pouts. "I don't wanna pack."
<Chad`Winters> Zephyr packed tho.
* Angela steps out of her apartment with a large duffel and puts it down, her long white coat on. The overly large device from the museum heist on her back as well.
<Myria> I see. What is the purpose of this request?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> There is a certain Progenitor item we need to have.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks back from Ariel to the monitor.
<Myria> Go on.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I cannot explain further. However, it is cruicial.
<Chad`Winters> What if I got Zephyr to help you?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sighs and goes to pack hapazardly like a 3 year.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You know we're good for being discreet, Myria.
* Ariel is certain that the others will be able to handle the diplomatic issue, and goes to prepare her things for the trip.
* Chad`Winters puffs his cheeks and turns, moving to pack his stuff.
<Myria> There are many worlds within the Ascendancy. Do you have a particular one in mind?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No. We will need access to them all until I am sure of the exact one.
* Drasek` arches a brow, thinking this is going to take a while.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks at Ariel when she steps out. "I'm done!"
<Angela> "Got enough there Zeph?"
<Myria> I see. There ar enumerous hidden caches containing stockpiled Progenitor relics scattered across the Ascendancy. Some have been...relocated after the civil war. However, if this helps to combat the Dark Ones and their allies, then I am willing to deal.
* Angela smiles and sits on her duffel.
<Megumi> I believe she will need assistance moving all of that.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am positive this will be a relic that is untouched. If that helps narrow sites.
<Ariel> "You're done?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *sits on her 5 suitcases* Yep.
* Ariel blinks, not knowning Zephyr HAD that many suitcases.
<Myria> Unfortunately not. Compunding that is the time span....there are many sites that we have dropped from our historical record.
* Angela giggles a little.
<Angela> "Zeph? How many of those have stuffies in them?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> *inclines her head* Then we will do what we must. It is very cruicial to the...galaxy. That is all I can say.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Hrmph. I'm not a kid. *Crosses her arms*
<Myria> The Ascendancy will allow this then. Our efforts to rampup to confront the Dark Ones have been difficult due to the aforementioned civil war. I now wonder if that conflict was engineered by the Dakr Ones or their minions...
* Angela pouts and opens her side pocket on teh duffel, pulling out one of her stuffies. "Does that mean I have to leave mine behind?"
<Drasek`> Probably not, luv. *he stands and gives her a wave, moving off*
<DeathStar> <Darien> It would be devious. I'm surprised the Tsivrixsh Empire hasn't taken advantage of it, yet.
* Ariel checks to see if any of the suitcases Zephyr is using were hers =P
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, no one in the Ascendency is going to take pot shots at us, right? I mean, you guys can be pretty radical.
<DeathStar> 6* Perhaps 1 or 2.
<Myria> I speak for the Ascendancy.
* Ariel stiffles a sigh, "Might need to go shopping before we leave."
* Angela puts it back in and zips it up when not given an answer. "I've got a few duffels left in my apartment if you need some Ariel."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *falls off her suitcase*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Alright. Fair enough. Hopefully things go smoothly.
<Angela> "Eeep, you alright Zephy?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Yeah. *she stands up*
* Chad`Winters steps out of his room, a shoulder back across his back. He moves over to his work bench and begins folding up Ere's tact suit
<Myria> Should the situation warrant it, I will seek you out.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Appreciated. Last thing we need is a crazy Rylon making life hell on us.
* Megumi gazes at Zephyr, then Angela and Ariel. She remains quiet for the moment.
<Angela> "Ariel? You need one?"
* Drasek` has since vanished into his room.
<Ariel> "I might. We'll see in a few minutes."
<Myria> I will relay my will to the Ascendancy. Anyone who disregards what I have given you is suspect. If they are of Erus, then it will be distressing.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, I'm sure Erevis here can handle herself. I mean, she's one of your Gods, right. Ha ha ha... ha...
* Chad`Winters slides the tact suit and some tools into a second bag. He moves over sliding some holodisks into it.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks at the straight face Erevis, who appears to not react.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... Ha.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm going to go pack
* Ariel heads to her room to start packing.
<Myria> Is that all?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks out
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. Thank you for your help.
<Megumi> Zephyr. ...Have you been well, lately?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Uh, yeah.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks at Megumi oddly.
<Myria> Of course.
* Megumi still appears quite nervous. 1"...Alright. I worry you may have not slept as much as necessary lately."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... Why...?
<Megumi> Little Aya and Zephyr are quite close.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> .... ... *clears her throat* So, yeah, maybe I've lost a few hours. I'm fine. Really. See? *waves her hadns*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis bows and ends the transmission.
* Chad`Winters moves over to a wall and taps it, the wall slides away to reveal a gun and several clips. He loads them into his second bag.
* Megumi nods slowly. 1"Zephyr will be fine."
* Angela watches them talk.
* Drasek` steps out of his room, guitar case fashioned onto his back, small bag in his left hand, he stands there quietly, then coughs something obscene towards Megumi.
<Chad`Winters> Erevia. Have you thought of a way for us to not get shot on our way out?
<Chad`Winters> NRP: erevis
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No. Would that not be Darien Starr's job? 6* She doesn't look at Chad.
* Xan|Gone has joined #erevis
* Xan|Gone is now known as Drasek-
<DeathStar> 6* Darien enters his room, grabbing his comm from his hidden spot.
<Chad`Winters> Let's hope he comes through than. 6He nods to her and shuts the wall, tossing the second bag over his shoulder. He moves to Aya's room and knocks on it.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya doesn't say anything
* Drasek- steps out of his room, guitar case fashioned onto his back, small bag in his left hand, he stands there.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps out to pack, but sees Megumi has already finished.
<Chad`Winters> Aya?
<DeathStar> <Aya> ... Yeahg?
<Chad`Winters> You ready or you need some help?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Right. 6* She leans on her suitcase again
* Drasek` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
<DeathStar> <Aya> ... no.
<Chad`Winters> No you're not ready or no you don't need help?
<DeathStar> <Aya> I don't need help!
* Drasek- glances around. "So is Darien's clunker doing to get us there?"
<DeathStar> 6* She says in a whine
<Chad`Winters> Alright. I'll wait for you than.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps out with a suitcase. "I'm done."
<Megumi> Zephyr, would you like some help moving... all of those?
* Drasek- coughs, acting like he didn't just diss Darien's shuttle.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I can handle it!
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr strains to lift all 5, and unstablely moves for the stairs.
* Megumi pauses, then nods dejectedly. 1"Alright." 6She glances toward Erevis.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... Uh huh...
<Drasek-> She really can't. She's just a wittle girl. *he says in as he moves after her*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Old fart!
* Chad`Winters stands, leaning against the wall next to Aya's door. His eyes closed.
<Drasek-> Midget!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien whistles. 
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Sprain anymore legs lately, old man?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya walks out, dragging a suitcase with clothes sticking out
* Angela slings her duffel over her shoulder, unsure if she should offer to help Zephyr at the moment.
<Megumi> Beloved, this... will not go as darkly as our last trip, will it?
<Chad`Winters> Ready? 6He opens his eyes looking at her.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... 6* She only frowns.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Yes.
<Drasek-> Well I did bump my elbow. Couldn't use my arm for like 2 hours.
* Ariel brings two heavily packed suitcases and a backpack, from her room.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien whistles, taking a suitcase from Ariel. "Let me help you."
<Chad`Winters> Alright, let's head out than. 6He opens the apartment door for her
<DeathStar> 6* Aya walks out with her suitcase, having no trouble moving it
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr strains as she walks up the stairs. This will not end well
* Angela is likely the least packed girl out of the group next to Erevis, unless Megumi went crazy.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis slides on her black trench coat for style, and moves up.
* Ariel blinks, "If you wish... I can handle this though."
* Drasek- reaches out with his free hand and grasps two of the suitcases. "Here, i'll help."
<DeathStar> <Darien> No, no, let me feel like the man in the relationship.
<Chad`Winters> To the roof. 6He shuts the door behind him and reaches above the doorway, hitting something. He heads towards the stairway now
* Megumi seems to gain no confidence from that and looses straps that create a backpack out of the suitcase, donning it and moving up the stairs. She reaches Zephyr and discreetly lends some of her meager strength pushing, to at the very least ease the amount or balance Zephyr without her real knowledge.
* Ariel smiles and nods.
* Angela giggles at the two and heads for the roof.
* Ariel then goes and promptly steals one of Zephyr's bags.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr loses three bags right away. She scowls, but doesn't say anything, looking somewhat appreciateive.
<DeathStar> <Aya> ... Anyone want to carry mine? 6* She asks in a whiney tone.
* Chad`Winters shifts his weight and holds his hand out to Aya. 1"I'll get it."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya happily hands it over, and runs up the stairs like a kid.
<Drasek-> DOn't spoil her, CHad. She's a big girl now. *he hoists up the two bags and moves on*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis helps Megumi with her load.
* Chad`Winters smiles, than shoots Drasek a glare. He heads up the stairs
<DeathStar> 6* Darien gets in the shuttle after they reach the roof, and powers it up.
<Megumi> If it is to be like last time." 6She notices the lack of weight on Zephyr and stops helping her before she gets in trouble. She glances toward Aya, blinking, then smiling as Chad gets it. She looks to Erevis as she feels the backpack lighten. 1"If it is to be like last time perhaps..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You know, I feel like we're forgetting something.
<Drasek-> Ponce. *he says, shaking his head.*
<Megumi> You should hold onto the emerald weapon longer.
* Angela steps into the shuttle and puts her duffel away, hopping up into the copilot's seat.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I desire for you to use it.
* Drasek- accidentally forgets to mention robo-dog. He steps in and places the bags aside.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog snoozes on the couch, unaware of the great exodus.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya hops onto a seat, looking out the window.
* Megumi winces slightly. 1"...It would make me.."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis puts up some of the luggage for Megumi.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr collapses tiredly. She really does look like she needs a good nap
<Ariel> 6* Siawase hops onto Aya's lap.
<Megumi> It is dangerous beloved, if there is any similarity. It manifests of will, after all.
* Chad`Winters steps onto the room last and heads into the shuttle, tossing his two bags down and Ayas in the corner. 1"Your cloack going to work good enough to get us into space?"
* Ariel puts her bags down, and makes sure all the luggage is secure.
<DeathStar> <Darien> We'll be fine.
* Angela smiles and sits back, confident in Darien's flying.
<Drasek-> Anyone remember to bring some food?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya smiles and plays with Siawase.
<Ariel> 6* Siawase purrs.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It would be less strain to use to the emerald sword, than your own crystal manifestations.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits down, buckling up.
<Drasek-> I'll take your dumb looks and silence as a no. *he frowns*
* Chad`Winters glances over at Zephr. 1"Zeph, take a seat, get a good sleep in."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *mumbles something about not being tired*
<DeathStar> <Darien> All aboard? Lets go. 6* He shifts the controls and zooms off, leaving Robo Dog to a lonely death.
* Drasek- smiles and pulls up a beer, taking a victory sip.
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-588.3.4
<DeathStar> Location: Hyperspace
<DeathStar> 6* Darien adjusts his headset, glancing at the chronometer.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sleeps, holding Siawase to her.
* Drasek- aimlessly strums on his guitar, glancing up at the ceiling.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is quiet, staring at nothing.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr snores like Cheryl would, laying out and using whatever is closest as a pillow.
* Chad`Winters sits in the back, his eyes closed and his arms crosses, his head hanging.
* Megumi peers at Zephyr, shifting uneasily. She gazes toward Drasek, closing her eyes and studying the notes.
* Angela is curled up in the copilot's seat, awake, but dozing a little, facing Darien but looking out the window.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ariel. I'm thirsty.
<Ariel> "Why don't you grab a drink then?"
* Drasek- seems to just be playing a simple tune, it's low though as to not disturb Zeph and Aya.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm flying here!
<Ariel> "Isn't hyperspace travel on autopilot?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Tch. This is why you are not a pilot.
* Angela giggles a little, nuzzling the seat.
* Ariel sighs, and goes to toss Darien a water bottle.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien misses the water bottle and it hits the circuits. The shuttle begins to shake
<DeathStar> <Darien> Uh oh.
* Megumi takes up the flute from her sash and curiously matches intonations with Drasek, not one hundred percent perfect but hard to tell if not, favoring a lower scale so it sounds more like a pan flute.
* Ariel wonders why Darien's shuttle has exposed circuits...
<DeathStar> 6* Darien quickly flicks switches, looking panicked, but not saying anything mroe.
* Angela sighs and sits up, "What did it screw up?"
* Drasek- perks an eye down to Megumi, then pauses all together and looks at Darien.
* Angela rubs her eyes, readying to help if need be.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, nothing, nothing. This is nothing.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien waves his hand quickly.
<Drasek-> Water actually defeated this heap of junk?
<DeathStar> <Darien> It's an antique, bitch. Not a heap of junk!
<Angela> "This is a CLASSIC."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares at the controls. "Well, this is bad."
<Angela> "What is it?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, I wouldn't want you to know how much trouble we're all in since you only have a few minutes to live.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head, not looking concerned.
<Drasek-> A classic piece of shit. *he notes with a groan*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'd like to see you fly better!
* Angela rubs her face and grabs a tool out of her belt.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns to shout at Drasek, not even looking at the controls.
<Angela> "Darien!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> What?!
<Drasek-> Why don't you pay attention! *he points*
<Angela> "Controls!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, right.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks back, grabbing them.
<Drasek-> Bloody hell. *he rubs his forehead*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr wakes up at the yelling. "What is it?"
* Angela looks at the panel, seeing if she can fix anything.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien clicks his tongue as the shuttle keeps shaking. "We need to drop out of hyperspace in 30 seconds, or bad things happen."
* Ariel just stares, mystified why'd they fly something so fragile that a lightly tossed sealed container would cause a critical error.
<Angela> "I could cut the engine, can you calculate a safe dropout?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Cut the engine. In hyperspace. .... are you SURE you design shuttles?
<Drasek-> Good news. I'm made out of hyperspace.
<Angela> "If you power off properly an emergency... you DON'T HAVE AN EMERGENCY BACKUP?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Bad news. You'll die once you become hyperspace.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Emergency what?
* Drasek- mumbles, "Bloody Dark Ones" and sighs again.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stares at Ariel.
* Angela facepalms.
* Megumi sets the flute away in her sash. 1"...Shall I have a look at the wiring?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> NO!
<Megumi> Then I trust you can fix it.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... Yes!
<Drasek-> That Chad sure can sleep like a rock.
* Megumi gazes toward Zephyr briefly, then looks back to Darien. 1"..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the controls, then the 7 seconds remaining
* Angela sighs and looks at the panel, seeing if she can do anything.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien raises his fist and pounds the control panel. They drop out of hyperspace in front of Erusia.
* Ariel rubs her head.
<DeathStar> <Darien> See? This is why I fly classics.
* Angela looks up, and blinks. "What..."
* Megumi brings the flute back up and continues mimicing Drasek's melody.
<Drasek-> ...You just fucking hit it...
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... why do I have the feeling I don't want to know what happened.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Exactly. You can't do that with new shit.
<Angela> "Ignorance is bliss."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis goes back to enjoying Megumi's music.
<Drasek-> Because it works. *he pauses and eyes the fact he is still playing, then stops*
<Angela> "Unfortunately, I'm going to have nightmares for a week."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien touches the headset. "Lets see how long before the Ascendency contacts."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya yawns, shifting Siawase in her lap as she wakes up due to all the commotion.
<Drasek-> Throw out a warning shot. It'll get their attention.
<DeathStar> <Darien> God.
* Myria is now known as Jackieness
<Angela> "What now?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Maybe we're suppose to contact them?
* Drasek- starts playing again, deciding it's more entertaining.
<Angela> "I don't think sending out a hail will be declared an act of war or anything."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien clicks a button. "This is ... uh... Erevis' ship of heroes?"
* Angela looks at him in shock.
<DeathStar> 6* DArien shrugs. "What are the chances she used my name?"
* Chad`Winters shifts slightly
<Angela> "You put her name in the title? What is this some primtime action series?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Look, she's their God!
* Megumi pauses. 1"...We are heroes?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches the bridge of his nose.
<Angela> "Do they know that?"
<Drasek-> Not bloody likely.
<DeathStar> <Darien> GRAGGAH! 6* He just walks off into the back.
<Angela> "Anyway, didn't we try killing OUR god?"
<DeathStar> 6 *Erevis watches Darien stalk into the back.
* Drasek- snorts.
<Jackieness> 6* Then an Erusian War Frigate decloaks off the port bow.
* Angela sighs and grabs the comms.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Um, who's flying now?
<Angela> "Me I guess."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shudders and sits next to Ariel in fear.
<Angela> "Hey, I was your pilot at one point."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> .. right. Me. Shuttle. Same thing.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr grips Ariel.
* Megumi gets up and moves over to the headset Drasek abandoned and sits. 1"...Hello, this is a neutral party shuttle with a Miss Mryia Arhnya's blessing. Please respond, preferably in a non-violent manner."
<Jackieness> <Frigate> Attention, alien vessel. You have entered the borders of the Erus Ascendancy.
* Ariel puts an arm around Zephyr, closing her eyes. This is soooo stressful.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head.
* Angela taps the comms, "This vessel was sent under the permission of the Erusian Ambassador. I believe we're expected?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks out the window with child like interest.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pats Ariel once on the shoulder. "You should relax."
* Megumi looks to Angela, wondering why she basically repeated what she said with less information.
<Drasek-> Tell that we won't shoot if they surrender. *he mumbles*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... Nice, old man. And you wonder why they don't worship you
* Angela said it because she's the one holding the comms.
<Jackieness> <Frigate> *silence and then* Credentials confirmed. We will act as escort. *the Frigate manuevers into an escort position*
* Angela hops into the pilot seat and moves to join with the Frigate, allowing it to escort them.
<Jackieness> 6* The frigate guides them toward Erus.
* Drasek` has joined #erevis
<Megumi> Thank you, Erusian vessel.
* Drasek- has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Megumi eyes Angela. 1"...Shall we switch seats. I believe I can manage, but piloting is not something I have true experience with."
<Drasek`> They don't worship me because they don't know me, luv.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Ten bucks says they still don't after they meet you
* Angela already having moved into the pilot seat, nods and shifts MEg into the copilot seat.
* Ariel finally looks to Erevis, "It's stressful, with that group doing diplomatic relations."
<Ariel> "...or piloting..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am confident in their abilities.
* Chad`Winters slowly opens his eyes. He looks around. 1"We there?"
<Angela> "I heard that!"
<Drasek`> That hurts. *he frowns, holding his chest*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien returns, sitting down on Ariel's lap. "Hi."
<Ariel> "...what are you in such a good mood for?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> *shrugs* Do I need a reason?
<Ariel> "It usually helps alieve suspicion that you're up to something."
<Drasek`> You better not have gotten into my stash of weed. *he eyes Darien*
* Megumi eyes Angela for accosting her in such a way as dislocation.
<DeathStar> <Darien> *sighs* That really hurt.
* Angela continues to pilot away.
* Ariel hugs Darien, "Well... we didn't get stranded or killed, so I'll forgive you."
* Chad`Winters glances around at everyone not responding and he just gets up. He moves over to Aya. 1"So what do you think of space?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks over at him, then at the planet. "Pretty."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Thanks, Cotton honey."
<Ariel> "...cotton honey?"
<DeathStar> NRP: LOL! Cotton candy.
<DeathStar> NRP: Wooooo!
* Megumi sets Darien's headset on the console before Angela and rises, moving away from the front and going to sit where she was, returning to play something else upon seeing the viewport. She crosses her legs and enters rolling verses, apparently affected by her mood and experiences.
<Jackieness> 6* Soon they pass into view of Erus itself...the space around the planet a bustle of activity
* Angela pilots all alone, moving along as directed by the Erusians.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Your hair reminds me of cotton candy.
<Chad`Winters> It is. And there's plenty more beautiful planets like this out there.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Can we see them all?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves to the front to look out at the planet. It's hard to tell if this is her first time seeing it.
<Chad`Winters> One day. 6He nods to himself then smiles at her. 1"Someday.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Kay. *she smiles, believing him*
* Drasek` moves to put his guitar away, since they are almost there.
<Jackieness> 6* The frigate guides the shuttle in before hailing them again...
* Angela grabs the headset, putting it on.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien slides off of Ariel, peering at the planet. "They appear to be doing better since the civil war."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr yawns. "Have I ever been ehre before?"
<Jackieness> <Frigate> We have arranged for you to be cleared for landing. Arrangements have been made for you to use the Arhnya residence to base your mission from. The coordinates for the estate's private landing pad are beign transmitted.
<Drasek`> Curious that no other race preyed upon them in their weakened state. *he sits back down*
* Megumi plays a series of long notes, interrupted by short whimsical beats, perhaps because she's staring at bleak space and then the bustling ships. Whatever, she puts the flute away. She looks to Zephyr and inclines her head. 1"I am not sure. You do not recall?"
<Ariel> "They would have put a great effort into recovering after what happened..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Perhaps the Tsivrixsh Empire's alliance with Rylon was more benefiting than invading.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Uh, no.
* Angela taps a console and gets the coordinates, plugging them in. "Thank you for your hospitality."
<Drasek`> Rylon an important Erus?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien snorts. "More like their biggest traitor."
<Chad`Winters> This is your first time here Zephyr. 6He looks out the window with Aya, pointing out things and explaining them to his best of knowledge
<DeathStar> <Darien> However, the alliance he made couldn't be easily broken.
<Drasek`> Interesting. What was the alliance?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya listens, her nose pressed against the window.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't know all the details. The Tsivrixsh Empire got access to some Progenitor technology, though.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Though I imagine Arhn gave them crap.
* Megumi gazes from Zephyr back to the viewport. 1"It is my first time as well. Another... bright, colourful world. Unlike my own."
* Drasek` frowns. "I would hope so.
* Angela begins the decent to the planet and Arhnya's estate.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You need new eyes so you can enjoy things better. We could cut your eyes adn replace them.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Besides, with Earth and the Tsivrixsh at war, they don't have time to go knocking on the Ascendency.
* Megumi frowns toward Zephyr, adjusting her sunglasses. 1"...I like seeing with my own eyes. Would you undergo such a procedure with your own?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Nope. Just yours. 6* She says cheerfully.
<Megumi> I should suspect as much.
<Drasek`> Lucky for them. *he notes with a nod*
<Megumi> What do you remember of Famfrit, Zephyr?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Unlucky for us.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *Frowns* I try not to, thank you.
* Megumi raises a finger. 1"How it looks, I mean."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr turns and sits back down, moody again
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers out the viewport at the various buildings.
<Angela> "Love this shuttle Darien, it handles wonderfully."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Thanks.
* Drasek` nods once again, "Unlucky indeed."
* Megumi lingers a moment then goes back to viewing forward. 1"I suppose that is just as well. It would be best forgotten, considering that moon will not exist very much longer."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien takes the copilot seat, watching their descent.
<Angela> "What'd you use in the control output to guide it like this?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> As if I'd tell you, you consumer whore.
* Angela brings them over the estate, readying for a landing. "Awww come on Darien." *she pouts*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Nuh uh.
<Angela> "Meanie pants."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wow. That's...geek.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien flips the landing gear.
* Angela brings it in for a smooth landing. "Well I am a geek. It comes with being a genius."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya moves over to get a better look at the estate.
* Chad`Winters smiles at Aya and stands up, moving with her.
* Drasek` snorts at genius.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien flicks a switch, powering down. "Well, we're here."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods, satisfied. She lowers the ramp once she arrives at the back.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stands, stretching. "I wonder what they do for fun around here."
* Angela sits back and smiles softly. "You want help getting that drive fixed later or anything? I brought a spare toolkit."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya leaps off the ramp and lands on the grass, falling.
<Ariel> "If Myria is any sign..." *trails off*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'll do it while Erevis hunts for the right ruin.
* Chad`Winters moves to the back, grabbing his two bags and Aya's. He move sdown the ramp.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That could take weeks.
<Angela> "Jobs are always more fun with two." *she smiles at him, putting the headset away*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Is that so?
* Megumi takes up the backpack-made one and rolls the other suitcase along before her, easing it down the ramp.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stands up, looking around
* Drasek- has joined #erevis
<Angela> "Of course!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis walks down onto the estate landing pad.
<Megumi> I do not believe Miss Angela means you harm, Mister Starr, she is merely lonely.
<DeathStar> <Darien> *rolls his eyes*
* Angela blinks and looks away, grabbing at her duffel.
<DeathStar> <Darien> We'll start tomorrow, angela.
* Drasek- moves over to pick up his bags, and some of Zephyr's. "She want's to jump your bones, mate. See the shy lookaway?" he laughs and walks off the shuttle.
* Angela smiles and looks back, "Alright!"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr grabs two suitcases, dragging htem off.
* Drasek` has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Ariel sighs.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien ignores Drasek.
<Chad`Winters> Come on Aya. 6He calls to her.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks over, then comes back.
* Megumi pauses her things at the end of the ramp, gazing toward Erevis, then looking back at the others.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks around, a look of contemplation on her face.
* Angela ignores Drasek too, pulling her duffel up over her shoulder.
* Drasek- steps up beside Erevis. "Were's the raving followers, eh?"
<Megumi> Is it safe to assume that... most inhabited worlds dwell of light?
<Drasek-> NRP:Where*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If we are lucky, we will not run into such people.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps back and grabs some of Megumi's bags, moving for the house.
<Drasek-> I would mind a few servants myself. *he notes with a dramatic sigh, following her*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr drags her suitcases toward the house.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pauses at the door, then moves to see if it'll open.
* Angela hops off the shuttle and helps Zephyr with some suitcases.
<Chad`Winters> So what do you think of Erus so far? 6He looks down at Aya.
<DeathStar> <Aya> It's weird.
<Chad`Winters> Well what makes it wierd?
<DeathStar> <Aya> *shrugs*
<Jackieness> 6* The door of the estate opens, revealing Robo Dog, sleeping in the entry hall on a doggy bed.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares.
* Ariel grabs her things and one of Zephyr's, and takes them to the house.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses, staring at the dog.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I--
<DeathStar> <Aya> Robo Dog!
<Chad`Winters> Fair enough. 6He shifts his bags. Then stares at Robo Dog. 1"...That's just."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya runs over and picks him up, hugging him. The dog wakes up and immediately goes yip yip yip yip
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Hunh.
* Megumi inclines her head, wondering if it is really the same one she purchased.
* Angela blinks and stares at Robo dog.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> How did he get here first?
<Megumi> Perhaps... it is a popular brand?
<DeathStar> <Darien> On another PLANET?
<Angela> "...Do not question the mysteries of the universe."
<Chad`Winters> Myria. 6He just states and moves inside the house.
<Megumi> Omega products are interstellar are they not?
<Angela> "Omega Corp doesn't make them... I hope..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> But--but why would---would she get Robo Dog and send him here?
<Angela> "Most of our products are interstellar but..."
* Chad`Winters simply repeats. 1"Myria." Then shrugs
<DeathStar> 6* Aya plays with Robo Dog, running into the house
<DeathStar> 6* Darien tilts his head. "This is...yeaaah."
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog suddenly yips and his eyes glow, playing a holographic message.
* Megumi continues along with the backpack case, leaving the rolling one with Erevis. 1"Little Aya, do not go too far away..."
<Ariel> 6* Siawase glares at Robo Dog.
* Megumi blinks again.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares again.
<Jackieness> 6* The air becomes fuzzy and a holographic Myria appears.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks somewhat amused.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stares at Myria appearing.
* Chad`Winters tilts his head slightly as he stares in awe.
* Angela looks over and smiles. "Hey Myria!"
<Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> Hello, I assume you got here safely. If you are not [Insert Subject Name Here] and company, then be forewarned that I have alot of heavy firepower trained on you right now.
<Angela> "...Oh jeez."
* Chad`Winters slowly glances above him.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses awkwardly, glancing around slowly.
* Drasek- lets out a whistle.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr slides behind Ariel in fear.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks about with awer.
* Megumi just stares, used to this feeling of doom.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis seems the same.
* Ariel just sighs
* Angela looks at the hologram. "Alright."
<Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> But if you are, then welcome! *rocks on her heels* My home is packed with the latest convenience and is carved froma single block of crystal, a common occurence on this world.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wow, she's like a tour guide for her own house.
<Chad`Winters> Aya, stay close for now.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks around curiously.
<Angela> "By convenience, I'm betting we'll find more Omega Coke then we know what to do with."
<Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> In the meantime, you may use my home as your mission base. I, that is the real me, am currently on Earth leading the defense of the free universe.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I have the strange feeling I like it.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Did she just...say...LEADING...the defense...of the free universe..?
<Angela> "Leading the defense?"
<Chad`Winters> She did. 6He glances behind him now
<Angela> "Should we tell Warren?"
* Angela grins.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches the bridge of his nose.
<DeathStar> <Darien> These crossovers are just too weird.
* Chad`Winters eyes Darien oddly than moves over to Aya.
* Drasek- glances about. "Hologram thingy. Where is the alcohol?"
* Megumi kneels and touches the floor. 1"A single crystal?" 6She closes her eyes and examines.
<Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> Alcohol?
<Ariel> "These... what?"
* Drasek- jerks. "Holy shit the hologram answered me."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You know, alien and human leading defense forces crossovers. They gave me headaches. Everyoen thinks they're the leader.
* Angela walks up to the hologram.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves on inside to set herself up a room.
<Chad`Winters> Myria, we can take any room?
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr drags her stuff inside.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps inside, apparantly bored with the hologram now.
<Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> Rooms on the first and second floors available. The third floor rooms are not available. The sub basement hangar is not available.
<Megumi> What is on the third floor?
<Angela> "Anywhere I can work on my projects Myria?"
* Megumi rises from examining the crystal. 1"A single crystal. This place is easily malleable."
<Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> On the thrid floor are the family living quarters, and I prefer my aunt's personal chambers to remian undisturbed along with those of my parents.
<Chad`Winters> Let's go find you a room Aya.
* Drasek- just moves in, creeped out with the technology.
<Megumi> Understandable. Do any of them frequent this place recent?
* Angela pokes the hologram.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Kay.
<Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> ...I am the last Arhnya.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves to step into the library. She will need it for her research into the ruins.
* Megumi nods once. 1"I am the last Zhenmei."
* Chad`Winters moves down the hallway and opens up the first room he comes across. 1"What about this one for you?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> Kay!
<DeathStar> 6* Aya moves inside and hops up and down on the bed to test it
<Drasek-> I AM THE LAST DRASEK! *he calls out from apparently the kitchen*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks at Ariel, having picked out a room. "Want to share a bed, Ariel?"
* Ariel moves her bags up to her room. Or at least, the random room she claims.
<Angela> "Myria, anywhere I can set up a lab?"
* Megumi eyes the kitchen area, then looks back to the hologram, awaiting it to answer Angela before continuing.
* Ariel pauses.
<Ariel> "...it would make things easier for Myria, if less of her home is abused."
<Chad`Winters> This room upto your standards? 6He looks curiously at Aya.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I agree.
<Angela> "Hence why I asked, I know this girl, she's got a lab in here somewhere."
<Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> The sub-basement does have some facilities besides the hangar.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien gives a lopsided grin.
<Angela> "May I set up shop in there?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> Yep. 6* She keeps bouncing.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr walks past Ariel and Darien, making typical teen gag sounds
<Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> [Insert subject Name Here] and company may use the 'war room' in the sub basement.
<Chad`Winters> Alrighty. 6He moves her suitcase inside and sets it down besides the dresser.
<Angela> "Alright! THanks."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances at the various books. She sits down at a computer uplink. "Erevis. Translate to Basic. I need access to known Progenitor ruins."
* Angela heads out to select a room and drop her stuff in there, taking one that looks comfy for one who might need to dwell in there often.
* Ariel laughs a little. She drops her bags in that room, and takes Zephyr's one to hers
* Angela blinks, looking at the suitcase in her hand, and looks for Zephyr's room as well.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr tests the bed, then looks at Ariel when she walks in. "Well, at least we aren't on the run now."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien quickly straightens his love room with Ariel.
<Jackieness> 6* A holgraphic display lights up the library, showing several planets in the Ascendancy. Red dots appear designating known caches of Progenitor relics.
<Drasek-> Oh that's spiffy. *He steps into the library, drinking and Omega Coke.*
<Chad`Winters> I'm gonna take the room next door. I'll be back in a few. That ok princess?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis clicks a button, closing the map. "Yes."
<DeathStar> <Aya> Yep.
<Chad`Winters> Alright. 6He steps out, shutting the door behind him. He moves down to the next room and opens it.
* Drasek- arches a brow. "That the location of the relic?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I have not located it yet. It will take a long time before we find the relic we need.
<Ariel> "We should be safe here... it'll be a nice change."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Since it's warm here, can we go to the beach?
* Angela drops the suitcase off she took from Zeph to help in Zeph's room.
<Angela> "Beach sounds good... did you pack a suit in all that?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I figure I'd buy something here.
<Drasek-> Need some help? *he moves his back to her, glancing around the library.*
<Angela> "Well you need to help Aya get clothes anyways."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> No. This will be long work. You should enjoy your free time. Perhaps learn more about the Erusian people.
* Angela smiles, "Have a little fun with it, pick something Chad will like." *she grins teasingly*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... Why? 6* She looks creeped out.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances at Ariel uneasily.
<Angela> "...No reason. I was attempting a joke."
* Drasek- glances over his shoulder. "I know enough about them. And I'm offering my help because I'm bored with my free time."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> He's like more than ten years older than me.
<Angela> "Yeah, he can be creepy."
<Angela> "I mean, yeah."
<Angela> "Too old."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> .oO( Not as creepy as you telling me to pick something he likes)
* Ariel seems a little uneasy as well. "Well... the beach... might not be a bad idea." And pauses, "...with precautions."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will be fine.
* Angela sighs and rubs her face. "I'm digging the hole deeper, aren't I?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Yeaaaaah. Kinda.
* Megumi gazes toward the hologram as Angela runs off. 1"Is there a place I may practice manifests? It can be rather destructive, I must warn, so I do not wish to use a place with anything valuable."
<Drasek-> Perhaps we can find more than one relic that will aid us. *he notes, going back to browsing the library*
<Angela> "I'm just going to flee and hope you forget this now, kay?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Sounds good.
* Angela sighs and flees to her room. Since it's carved out of a mineral, it really is a cave.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks at Ariel. "Creeeepy."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> There would be nothing on the level that you would desire.
<Drasek-> And what do I desire? *he glances over his shoulder again, a look of curiosity in his eyes*
* Chad`Winters moves inside his room and sets his bags down. He quickly begins organzing his stuff.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> As you have stated, you wish to bring back the Progenitor race.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips at Megumi
<Ariel> "She is... unique."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sets up a pillow for Siawase to sleep on, should he choose her room.
* Megumi peers at Robo Dog, then back to the hologram, waiting on an answer.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr cups her hands together. "So, what's the precautions?"
<Drasek-> And even the smallest of relics could aid me in that quest. *he turns to face her* And why are you doing this, clearly you don't have any intention of bringing back the progen.
<Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> Warning: term 'manifest' does not compute. Ending program. *pops off*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks back at Drasek. "One day, I will tell you why."
<Ariel> "Well... prehaps we should just have a... what's it called... girl's day out?"
* Megumi peers at the hologram disappearing.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I see. I think Darien will be very sad to miss you in a bikini.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> But it works for me!
* Megumi bends down to pat Robo Dog on the head. 1"I suppose I will just have to use this entry way, then."
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog wags it's tail. It lives! It LIVES!
<Drasek-> I'm sure that'll be a lovely day. *he notes, taking a sip of his Omega Coke.* I guess i'll leave you be, then. Since there's nothing I can do to help. *he moves for the door*
* Angela starts to unpack in her room, setting down some books and a few gadgets.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis watches Drasek go. "Oh. There is something I wished to give you. I made you a drawing, as you asked."
* Ariel considers, "Well... "
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Ut ut! You can't invite just one guy! The others would be upset.
* Drasek- pauses and turns to her. "Seriously?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. You said you wished to have one, did you not?
* Ariel chuckles, "I wasn't thinking that, Zephyr."
<Drasek-> Yes.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Oh? Wait, what were you thinking? Private showing? Ew ew ew. *covers her ears*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis considers. "Ask Megumi Zhenmei for permission to open the blue bag. I put my notepad in it."
<Ariel> "However... some time, to invite them all, and just distract others things they need to do... that would not be unfair."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Well, we should go shopping tonight, and plan to go tomorrow!
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr nods, as if it's decided.
* Chad`Winters finishes settins his room up. He glances around studying it meticiously
<Drasek-> Alright. I'll give you my opinion shorty. *he steps out and moves towards Erevis' room*
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sits on her bed, peering out to see if Siawase enters her room.
<Ariel> "It seems like you have this well in hand."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Someone has to be the leader of fun, and it's clearly gotta be me
<Ariel> 6* Siawase peeks in the door, as if waiting for permission.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya wiggles her fingers to get the kitty to come in.
<Angela> "I wonder what I could get cooking here..."
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips at Drasek
* Angela looks at herself on a reflective surface, sighing a little. "Even if the whole dinner thing is just to fill another meaningless gap..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien takes a seat at a desk, playing with his datapad.
* Angela shakes her head a little, arcing a brow at herself, then continues unpacking.
* Drasek- kicks it out of the way, and moves for Erevis' blue bag, searching about for the notepad.
<Ariel> 6* Siawase hurries over and hops up onto the bed. Attention is kittycrack.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yelps.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya pets Siawase.
<Ariel> "Well... then miss leader. Prehaps you should find out the best shopping area to visit."
<Ariel> 6* Siawase purrs.
* Megumi pushes her palm and tilts her head, intent on sending Drasek flying.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You're right! 6* She hurries off to invade the computers.
<Angela> "At least we can rest easier here..."
* Megumi motions to Robo Dog.
* Chad`Winters moves over to his bed and places one of his gun's under the pillow. He then moves to the door, placing one there.
* Drasek- lifts up the bag and shifts his body quickly, he pulls out the notepad and drops the bag, stepping out again.
* Angela sits down in a seat, looking about the room, slowly pulling weapons out of the duffel.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog hides from Drasek.
* Chad`Winters steps out of his room and moves over to Aya's. He knocks oni t
<DeathStar> <Aya> Come on in. 6* Aya is laying there, playing with her new kitty friend.
* Chad`Winters opens the door and sticks his head in. 1"I see Siawase has found you already."
<DeathStar> <Aya> Yep. He's smart.
* Megumi moves over and examines the blue bag's contents otherwise.
<DeathStar> 6 It's got some of Erevis' things in it for drawing.
* Angela rubs her temple a little and sits forward a bit, closing her eyes.
* Megumi closes it, then moves over to console Robo Dog and carry him with her to Erevis in the library.
* Drasek- steps back into the library and extends the notepad out to Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog, upon seeing Drasek in the library, too, freaks out and whimpers.
* Chad`Winters moves inside and kneels down beside Aya. He holds out a small comm to her. 1"I want you to hold onto this.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis takes the notepad. She pauses, then flips to the last drawing and hands it back. It's a picture of Drasek playing the guitar, a look of peace about him.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya takes it with her free hand. "Kay." 6* She puts it in her pocket.
* Drasek- widens his eyes, his mouth dropping open. "..."
* Chad`Winters pauses than rubs the back of his head. 1"It's a communicator. Set to mine so all you have to do is hold the button in and you can talk to me instantly if something happens."
* Angela gets up and steps out of the room, looking for what would be a central room in the house, the lobby for the new estate.
<DeathStar> <Aya> I know what it is, Daddy.
<Drasek-> Thank you, Revi. This is wonderful.
* Chad`Winters rubs the back of his neck now. 1"Well that makes things easier."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr busts into Chad's room. "Aya! We are going suit shopping for a girl's only beach day!"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Be ready in a few hourS!
<Megumi> If you wish to draw, Drasek, there are more productive methods than thieving other peoples' things and kicking pets.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr exits.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at Megumi, tilting her head at the wild statement.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I told Drasek to retrieve my notepad.
<Megumi> I see.
* Chad`Winters looks at Aya. 1"That sounds like fun."
* Megumi pats robo dog's head.
* Drasek- glances at Megumi, then turns back to Erevis.
<DeathStar> <Aya> *looks at her body* But people will stare.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog whimpers.
* Megumi turns to Drasek, smiling softly. 1"You have my permission, then."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr busts in on Angela. "Swimsuit shopping a few hours! Girl's day only tomorrow! Emphasis on the girl."
<Megumi> But do not kick the dog again.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hurries to the library.
* Drasek- ignores Megumi. "You are an amazing artist." He nods to Erevis.
* Angela giggles a bit and nods to her before she leaves.
<Chad`Winters> You're going to go through life with a lot of people staring. I did, Zephyr did and your mom did. But that never stopped any of us from trying new things.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I merely draw what I see. You kicked..the dog?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya frowns. "Kay."
* Megumi sets robo dog down and blinks at Zephyr.
<Drasek-> It was in my way and it annoys me. *he says with a slight shrug, then eyes the dog on the ground and glares at it*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Please do not kick the dog. That is...mean.
<Chad`Winters> Zephyr won't let anything bad happen. 6He leans over, hugging her.
<Megumi> It is Little Aya's. If you harm it, I will harm you.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr takes a deep breath. "We're going swimsuit shopping in a few hours for a girl's day only at the beach tomorrow. Get ready to go shopping, Meg!"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hurries out.
* Drasek- laughs, then glances at Erevis. "...alright. Sorry." He eyes the picture in his hands, then turns to leave.
* Megumi recoils nervously. 1"Shopping?"
<Chad`Winters> Plus, I can always kick said persons ass in for you. 6He looks down at her, a serious look on his face.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Promise?
<Chad`Winters> Darn right. 6He holds out his pinky.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya pinky swears with Chad.
* Jackieness has left #erevis
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis watches Drasek go. "Perhaps I will even sing for you some day."
* Megumi peers at Drasek, tapping her lip.
* Megumi then glances at Erevis and tilts her head.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis goes back to her work.
* Drasek- pauses and glances over his shoulder, then steps out after that.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog looks sad, sitting on his rump.
* Megumi feels awkward, and rubs her forehead before exiting the library with a frown, going to choose a room to move their stuff into.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr returns to Ariel. "The plans have been made."

<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-588.3.5
<DeathStar> Location: Erusian Beach
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr marches over to the beautiful waters, which shimmers like crystals itself. She is wearing a one piece suit. Beside her, Aya stands there, eyeing Erusian males staring at her lustfully. She looks uncomfortable, tugging at her one piece suit with lots of frills and a ribbon.
* Angela has picked out a bit of a skimpy number, a pink bikini that shows off more then it hides, with black straps and a little bunny on one of the cups to the top, her hair tied back with a ribbon.
Session Close: Tue Jan 08 00:00:00 2008


Session Start: Tue Jan 08 00:00:00 2008
Session Ident: #erevis
* Ariel wears a blue and silver two piece, having decided against the bikini this time. She doesn't seem to notice any of the Erusians, except when it might become a risk to Zephyr or Aya
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks around, then sticks an umbrella into the sand. "I claim this spot."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sticks near Ariel and Zephyr, apparantly deciding they're the adults.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Um. *she looks at the water uneasily*
* Angela walks along and enjoys herself, sticking her feet into edge of the water.
<DeathStar> <Aya> *peers at it, then at Ariel and Zephyr* Are you two going to swim?
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr considers. "I don't know. I don't remember ever swimming before."
<Ariel> "Did you want to go swiming, Aya?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> I don't know how. 6* She notes, fidgeting.
* Angela looks back at them, "You girls need swim lessons?"
* Megumi hangs off Erevis' arm for security or something, half-hiding behind her on the insistance that she's never seen or dealt with erusians. Her outfit is a two-piece bikini since she bought it originally with Angela and Darien, with her usual pension for lace showing in the ties at either hip and between the cups. It's a myriad of violets and blues in a fading pattern.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Nonsense. I can totally swim.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks neutral faced, having protested this time away from research. She clearly does not plan to have fun, in silent protest. She is wearing a green bikini herself, though it's pretty see-throughish. Damn Erusians clothing
* Drasek- is apparently not there, since the females of the group are sexist bitches.
* Megumi makes an odd show of directing Erevis toward the umbrella, crouching under one side of it to hide away her pale self from the sun.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits there. Her skin is pale, but not nearly as much as Megumi's. She looks at Ariel. "Are we going to hit each other in the face with a ball again?"
* Megumi winces.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya fidgets, wondering if it's really save to swim when people like Zephyr are in denial. She's 3, and she can tell.
* Ariel laughs, "That... wasn't the plan."
* Angela hops on her feet a little and walks over to Meg and Ere. "Tell me you two at least know how to swim."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not like the water.
<Megumi> I... I can swim. I had... encounters on Kilek.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits on a lifeguard seat, peering at the girls with his binoculars.
* Drasek- leans against the seat, putting something on his face.
<Angela> "Oh come on girls, what if we ever get in a situation where we need to swim?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sits down, playing with the sand.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Typically I drown in those situations.
<Ariel> 6* Siawase sits on Darien's head, peeeeering.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks at Erevis oddly, owndering if she's serious
* Megumi pouts at Erevis. 1"Then you should learn."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien holds up mini binoculars for Siaswase, not even questioning WHY a CAT is there.
<Angela> "You could always learn."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will avoid the water.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya holds up her hand. "I'll learn."
* Angela shrugs like she can't overcome a challenge and heads into the water to get a soaked a bit.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sighs, going back to her sand playing.
<Megumi> It would make you more effective in defending yourself if you remove weaknesses, beloved.
* Drasek- pulls up an omega coke and takes a swig, upset that he has to drink this crap.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis just crosses her arms, refusing to comply.
<Megumi> ...I see. Little Aya, would you like me to show you?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods.
* Angela wanders back, and walks over, "I'll help."
* Drasek- rubs his chin as he stands there. "So 3 more years, and i'll have me a new lady to go after."
<Angela> "Had to get a little wet first."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stands up. "I'll show you all how it's done!" 6* She rushes in head first.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ungh. Please be talking about Megumi.
* Angela watches Zephyr go. "Oh dear..."
* Megumi stands, slowly moving out from under the umbrella reluctantly, ushering Aya to accompany her toward the water, blinking at Zephyr.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sinks beneath the waves.
<Drasek-> Right, because Megumi totally has a smoking body.
* Angela moves with Aya and Megumi.
<DeathStar> <Darien> IF you're referring to Aya or Zephyr, that's just wrong.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya walks along after Megumi.
<Drasek-> It'll be right in 3 years. *he notes*
<DeathStar> <Darien> *Groans*
<Megumi> NRP: Darien "When she's six?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> She'll be like six!
<Angela> "Let's be easy with her Meg. THe currents going out just a little bit."
<Drasek-> Psch. Not physically.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grinds his teeth
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis meditates under the umbrella.
* Megumi waits to see if Zephyr will resurface-- then motions Aya to join her, taking small steps into the water. 1"Make small steps and be sure of footing before walking in, Little Aya. If you are unprepared it can pull or you may trip."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr remains sunk.
* Drasek- sighs. "This isn't as fun without CHad around to get all upset."
* Angela sighs and looks at Meg, "Watch her."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'd shoot you, but I'd draw attention to us.
* Angela heads in after Zephyr.
<Megumi> Miss Angela, perhaps you should... Yes.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya takes tiny steps in.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr leaps out, grabs Angela, and drags her under.
<Angela> "Ack!"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya eeps.
<Drasek-> Then let's talk about Ariel. A two piece eh? That fox.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... I won't even need to hurt you. She could probably do it from there.
* Angela grins under the water and brings them both back up.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr is forced back up. She sighs.
* Ariel shakes her head, ands sits next to Erevis. "You're not a fan of beaches still?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So much for accidental drownings.
* Megumi blinks, then goes back to her lessons. 1"I will hold you at first so you do not sink, alright?"
<Angela> "Hey!"
* Angela looks at her a little surprised.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr grins.
* Angela pokes her nose. "Well I see you've got your sea legs missy."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> The beach is fine. It is solid, despite the fact sand manages to get everywhere. I am not sure how that is possible.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Told you.
<Drasek-> I doubt it. I mean, she might appreciate the compliment.
<Angela> "Yes you did."
* Megumi goes and encircles Aya's waist with her arms. 1"Okay, put one hand forward and cup, the other back, and practice motioning in a circle."
<DeathStar> 6* If there were human males around, there would be perverted whistling
<DeathStar> 6* Aya tries to comply.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr drops back into the water.
* Drasek- does a perveted whistle, then pauses. "Piss." he hides, leaving Darien to get caught.
* Angela acks and drops down too.
* Ariel laughs, "Yes. Sand does seem to have a habit of that."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches the bridge of his nose. "Siawase. IF anyone asks, we're here on a mission."
<Ariel> 6* Siawase mews and nods.
* Megumi waits for Aya to get this simple motion down, then continues. 1"Now, do the same, kicking with your feet. This will help you move."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is a very tricky opponent.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr surfaces near Aya and Megumi.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya kicks her feet rapidly.
* Drasek- peeks out. "Good thing they're all deaf."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I suspect Ariel and Erevis know. They're just not hurting us.
* Angela surfaces behind Zephyr and hugs her. Grinning she looks at Aya.
<DeathStar> <Darien> The others are in the water, making noise.
<Megumi> Until you are accustomed to this, it is best to stay where the water is shallow and hold your breath unless you are stationary. Stay where we are near and you will do fine.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr flails.
* Megumi slowly lets Aya go. Yes, she taught Aya super cat paddling.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya keeps trying this technique.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> What in the hell did you teach her?
<Drasek-> So how you liking Angela's hot new bod?
<Ariel> "I find it odd... you have no trouble with a bath, yet dislike lakes and oceans."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Mmmm. It's nice, but the fact is, Ariel's my girl.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not typically have to swim in a bath.
<Drasek-> If that doesn't work out for some reason, you have a backup. That must be a nice feeling.
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... *sighs* Did you think with only your dick before you became a human?
<Megumi> ...I taught her to swim.
* Megumi turns to swim with Aya, moving rather... gracefully despite the comical method.
<Angela> "Cat paddle?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You call that swimming?
<Ariel> "Well, I suppose that's true."
<Drasek-> Who says i'm thinking with my dick now. I'm talking about being emotionally secure. And you don't really run the risk of being lonely. That must be great.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Uh.....huh.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods. "If my bathtub was as big as a lake or ocean, then I would avoid it." 6* She says this completely seriously.
<Ariel> 6* Siawase gives Drasek an odd look.
<Drasek-> Oh fuck you. *he crosses his arms*
* Ariel nods, "I've always prefered skating... but swimming is fun."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien studies them with his binoculars. "I think we should neglect to mention to Chad that Aya is being taught a really fucked up way to swim."
<Angela> "Well she's staying buoyant... that's a start."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Skating is very relaxing. I enjoy it very much.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya keeps practicing
<Drasek-> I'm surprised he's not here with us. He's one overprotective fella.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... 6* She pauses, then leans over and dunks Megumi's head under.
* Megumi yelps and sinks.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr lets go
<Angela> "Hehe... drowned cat."
* Megumi pops up, hacking, treading water.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Angela did it.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr points.
* Angela dunks Zephyr!
<DeathStar> <Darien> He's probably here, disguised.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr is dunked.
* Megumi turns, narrowing her eyes. It seems that proved Angela's guilt.
* Angela lets her up easily.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr rises, coughing up water, since she had her mouth open.
* Megumi rears one hand back and cups her hand, using force to drive a solid wave of water at Angela.
<Drasek-> Uh oh. I hope he didn't hear the bit about Aya, then.
* Ariel ponders and leans back to look up at the sky. She doesn't understand how Erevis can dislike swimming.
<DeathStar> <Darien> He probably bugged you before.
<Angela> "Ack!"
* Angela goes under.
<Drasek-> Well that's unfortunate.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits there. She doesn't reveal it, either. She's a secretitive wone, unless asked directly.
* Megumi looks around for Aya, squinting now that she's lost her sunglasses.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya has mysteriously --- gone nowhere.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya keeps circling
<Megumi> Good job, Little Aya.
* Angela doesn't come back up.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *gets an evil look, and goes under water*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yeah.
<Drasek-> Oh well. If he's going to kill me, I may as well shag her. Die happy an all that.
<DeathStar> 6* The Erusian males loose interest in Aya, thinking she's retarded.
* Megumi peers toward Aya, now that Angela and Zephyr are underwater. 1"When you are comfortable with that, I will teach you the second method."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pinches the bridge of his nose. "God, I hope you're not bugged."
<Chad`Winters> 6Chad, wherever he is. Approves, his plan in motion
* Drasek- laughs. "It would be funny."
* Angela comes up at the shore, standing, shaking out her hair, dripping wet.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Kay.
* Megumi curves and slips under the water without disturbing it, sweeping her hands back, swimming by merely motioning along her body and kicking her feet. Mermaidesque and quite fast, she drops to the bottom and where it's darker, begins searching for her glasses.
<Drasek-> That water looks really cool. *he notes* And i'm getting hot.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't like how this is going to end.
* Angela turns and watches Aya.
<Drasek-> I like swimming, too. *he notes*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Uh huh.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't swim down to the girls.
<Drasek-> What if I wanted to sneak and steal Angela's swimsuit?
<DeathStar> <Darien> No.
<Drasek-> Oh come on. You're boring.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya keeps circling
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes. I'm old and boring.
* Megumi finds them along the bottom and kicks off the bottom, whirling back toward the surface just as quick.
<Drasek-> Funny how i'm older than you. *he just seems amused by that*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr launches her attack. She grabs Megumi's bottom and yanks it back, dropping an animal down it, and lets go
* Ariel is suddenly glad she's back on the beach.
* Angela swims over to Aya, "Alright, ready to learn another kind of swim?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> Kay.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods at Ariel. "You are in agreement."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You don't act it.
* Megumi flings right out of the surface of the water, performing a halfturn and sinks right back into the water. Dolphin cat. Underwater she begins freaking out.
<Angela> "Okay, you're gonna use one arm at a time like you're dragging yourself, and make quick, hard kicks with your legs at the same time. Ready?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr surfaces, laughing her ass off.
<Drasek-> Because I like to enjoy my life?
* Angela moves over to steady her so she can try it.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's it. Yes. Exactly.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at Megumi's manuever. "That does not appear to be natural."
* Megumi continues freaking out until she gets whatever it was out, staring.
<Ariel> "At this point in time... yes. This seems like the better place to be."
<DeathStar> 6* A sea creature with little tentacles waves at her.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya begins to perform the complicated manuever.
<Megumi> 6It looks like a depth charge goes off under the water. A wave breaking the surface.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya screams and flails.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr rides the wave.
* Drasek- shakes his head. "I'm sure you enjoy your life too, but too me, it's just boring."
* Angela grabs ahold of her and rescues lAya.
* Megumi surfaces in a shallow end and flings the squidish thing toward the horizon, heaving and huffing.
<DeathStar> 6* It zooms away.
<Angela> * Aya
<DeathStar> 6* Aya grips Angela, peering at the water like it were evil.
* Angela smiles, "Don't worry kiddo, you're safe while I'm here. Wanna go back to the shore for now?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Hm. That was odd. I wonder if it was an attack
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods.
* Megumi falls back against the sand, continuing to heave as water trails up around her.
<Drasek-> Perhaps I should go investigate.
<Angela> "Alright, wanna swim or want me to take you?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr peers down at Megumi.
* Megumi looks freaked the fuck out.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Take me.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands and hurries over to Megumi, kneeling. "Are you okay?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm sure that'll end well.
<Drasek-> Oh they love me, it'll be great.
* Angela smiles and takes her to shore, she seems incredibly good at swimming.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Your funeral. Just don't mention me.
* Megumi shivers and shakes, staring at Erevis blankly. 1"..."
<Drasek-> Oh I won't scream your name and give you a thumbs up after I determine the situation is safe.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis picks up Megumi, cuddling her to herself and carries her back to the umbrella.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr frowns, looking guilty now.
<Megumi> ... Th-th... Th-thynaae!
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sits down on the beach once there.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Thanks.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lays her down on the blanket. "I do not understand."
<Megumi> Myae nuo ta thynae.
* Angela sits with her. "This better hun?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Ah. That tongue.
* Drasek- doesn't seem to be moving, he just taps his chin as he stands there. "What'ya think my chances with Angela are?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods, then cuddles herself next to Megumi, petting her hair to calm her.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods.
* Megumi sniffles, then shakes her head. 1"...U-um.. sea monster baby."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr walks over to Aya and Angela.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is okay. I will destroy it for you.
<DeathStar> <Darien> .... Ew.
<Angela> "Alright, I think I know a good, monster free activity, sand castles?"
* Megumi blinks a few times, then sniffs again.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis continues to hold Megumi, stroking her hair.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I think I broke Megumi.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Sand castles?
<Drasek-> What're you 5 now?
<DeathStar> <Darien> No. No. I mean. Go for it. *thumbs up*
* Megumi cuddles into Erevis for a while, eventually returning to normal, more or less.
* Drasek- eyes Darien. "What's the big deal? She got stinkpussy or something?"
<Angela> "Yes. See." *she splashes some water on dry sand, amking it wet* "Wet sand can be molded like this..." *she makes a little mound* "You can build things with the sand for fun."
<DeathStar> <Darien> ... I wouldn't know.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares.
<DeathStar> 6* She then begins to mimic.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr peers over at Megumi, too afraid to approach.
<Drasek-> Then you're sarcastic comment just leaves me confused.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Mmmhm
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Are you feeling better? 6* She asks Megumi gently.
* Megumi nods slowly. 1"That was silly of me."
<Angela> "Good... now let's see what you can build Aya."
<Megumi> This is not Kilek, surely it is not the same creature. It likely does not grow nearly as big or have the same habits...
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods, then begins to work.
* Angela smiles, her tone very approving.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Same habits...?
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr rocks on her heels, not wanting to swim alone.
* Drasek- whistles as he gets into the water, swimming about, a bit away from the girls, as per Darien's warning.
<Megumi> On Kilek there is a nautical creature of similar physiology that belies habits of creating labyrinthine tunnels. It preys on those that find themselves lost within them, or lunges for prey from false walls. Traps.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya begins to build an elaborate, extremely advanced pattern of buildings. Something beyond her age.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. You are safe now. 6* She hugs Megumi.
* Angela grins, watching, "Amazing Aya... this is very good."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Hmmm. *taps her lip* I feel dumb.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches Drasek with his binoculars.
* Drasek` has joined #erevis
<DeathStar> 6* Darien watches Drasek with his binoculars.
* Drasek- has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Drasek` floats there, seemingly enjoying the water.
<Megumi> Thank you beloved." 6She goes to stand.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien goes back to watching the others
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands as well. She appears over protective now.
<Angela> "Your very smart for your age Aya. This is so well done..." *she keeps watching in awe*
<DeathStar> 6* Aya finishes after a bit, then gets bored and stands, wandering off. Zephyr eeps and follows.
* Megumi ventures back down into the water dramatically.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stops at the water edge, sitting down.
* Angela follows as well.
* Drasek` floats there, unaware that Aya and Zephyr are approaching his part of the beach.
* Megumi lunges into the water hands and head first without a splash, swimming in the mermaid manner beneath, gazing around.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sighs, laying on her back on the sand.
<DeathStar> 6* The trio wander down the beach.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien frowns, then pulls on a mask as they approach.'
* Ariel watches Erevis, wondering if she'll break her feat of water.
<Ariel> 6* Siawase pretends to be a hat.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya bends over and picks up a crystal seashell. She peers at it.
* Drasek` floats by them, whistling.
* Megumi surfaces a bit out, gazing toward Erevis. "1Beloved, will you not join me?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am fine where I am.
<Angela> "Oh pretty."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pauses, squinting out at the water, recognizing that whistling
<Megumi> I know you are..." 6Purses her lips slightly.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> *closes her eyes; apparantly, only the idea of MEgumi being attacked will get her in that water*
<Megumi> Are we not to share that which we enjoy with one another?
* Drasek` floats along, eyes closed, arms behind his head.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> *opens her eyes, frowning. That apparantly bothered her*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... *she pauses, then slinks off from Angela and Aya toward the water*
<Angela> "You should keep it Aya."
<DeathStar> <Aya> Kay.
<DeathStar> 6* Two Erusian males walk up. "Hey, ladies. Want to go surfing with us?"
<Megumi> Skating, singing, writing, drawing, playing instruments. Swimming is something I enjoy... Even though I have been told it is uncharacteristic of a cat to do so."
* Drasek` switches from whistling to humming.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis crosses her arms. "I do not like swimming."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr gets close to Drasek, then scoops up water. "DRA-GOON BUSTAH!" 6* She throws a hurdle of water at him.
* Angela looks up at the mates. "Ummm... we're no good at that..."
* Drasek` gets hit and flails about, dissappearing under the water.
<DeathStar> <Males> We show you. Good fun
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hmphs. "Pervert-san!"
<Angela> *males, angela doesn't have a one track mind
<Angela> "We could watch?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares, sliding behind Angela slightly.
* Drasek` rises behind Zephyr. "That wasn't nice."
* Angela stands protectively in front of Aya.
* Megumi nods slowly, looking disappointed, then leans back, her head going under, the rest of her body following the fluid motion and she returns to exploring beneath.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr goes to say something, then sees Aya and Angela with two guys. She groans and hurries back.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis closes her eyes again, still looking somewhat offput.
* Drasek` tilts his head and then moves after Zephyr.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr grabs Aya's arm. "Scram!" 6* She shakes her fist at the two guys. They stare.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Eep
* Angela blushes and turns away from them a little to hug Aya gently.
* Drasek` crosses his arms. "You hear her, get lost."
<Drasek`> NRP: heard*
<DeathStar> 6* Aya makes another sound as she's suddenled hugged.
<DeathStar> 6* The two guys look confused and walk off.
* Angela blinks, looking over at Drasek. "...Are you PEEPING?"
* Megumi eventually surfaces and goes to sit beside Erevis quietly.
<Drasek`> I'm allowed to come to the beach if I want.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis speaks without opening her eyes. "Why are you not swimming?"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pokes Drasek with a finger. "Old pervert."
<Megumi> I have swam already.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Mmm. It was fast.
<Angela> "Right... Come on Aya, let's go back to the others."
<Drasek`> Get over yourselves. *he waves a hand and moves back to water*
<Megumi> Dearest Ariel is not swimming either.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods, peering at Drasek as if he were harmless.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is correct.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya walks back to the others
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr scoops up some sand and throws it at the back of his head, then runs back.
* Ariel is just enjoying some sun. Where things aren't chaotic OMGWTF
* Drasek` pauses and narrows his eyes, he gets into the water and dives under.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr slides up beside Ariel, landing on her
* Angela walks with Aya, her body startingt o dry off by now. "I might need another dip."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien lowers the mask.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sits under the umbrella.
* Ariel looks up, "Got tired of playing in the water?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> For now.
* Drasek` lurks out there in the water, somewhere.
<DeathStar> 6* Tiny tentacle sea creature lurks behind him
<Megumi> 6Shade envelops Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis opens her eyes, confused.
* Megumi is appaarently creating a pagoda from thin walls of sand, and has already enclosed Erevis in the first section, standing on it's ridiculously thin 'roof' to build the next handful by handful.
<Ariel> "How was swimming?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> It was great. You should try it.
* Drasek` slips up onto the beach, then moves off to a bag, rummaging through it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis jerks, glancing around in slight confusion, perhaps a panic moment.
* Megumi finishes a second layer and hops atop it, even thought it shoulder totally collapse under even her weight, building a third.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Megumi...Zhenmei...what are you doing? 6* She looks for an exit.
* Drasek` pulls out a water gun and moves to fill it up.
* Megumi left the front open as a door and subsequent windows. Peers down. 1"...Building something out of sand. Miss Angela said it is normal to do so."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares at Drasek
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis quietly begins to move her way for the exit.
* Megumi continues, now working her way up a sand staircase for the fourth!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis slides out of the pagoda, standing and turning back to face it.
* Drasek` gets it filled up, then lurks about, making his way, all ninja like, towards the girls.
* Megumi is cheating, made apparent by the staircase building itself before her as she steps onto the fifth, assisting the invisible menace in making the walls and such.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares in awe and runs over to stare at the pagonda. She taps on it's walls.
<Ariel> "I wonder if this old lady has the energy for the games of the young..."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Old. *snorts*
<Angela> "Oh please Ariel, you're not old."
* Megumi finishes a seventh layer, apparently the top, because a roof forms. She peers down, waving at Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien grabs a giant sandball, and hurls it at the back of Drasek's head.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya keeps testing it's sturdiness.
* Drasek` pauses, and tilts his head to eyes Darien.
<Megumi> 6It makes a rather impressive "tock" when knocked on.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien wags his finger in a "No no" motion
<DeathStar> <Aya> Cool. How did you make it?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares up in awe.
* Drasek` tilts his head back and then turns to walk off back towards them.
<Megumi> Sand, water, and manipulating the bonding structure so that it maintains a parralel pattern of perpendicular allignment.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pulls out his gun
<DeathStar> <Darien> I do this for your own good, Drasil.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien fires a ball of water at Drasek
<DeathStar> 6* Aya just stares.
* Ariel smirks a little, then looks at Angela, "By who's standards?"
* Drasek` rolls to the side and pulls up his own gun, firing water at Darien.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien blocks with his mask.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien narrows his eyes and ninja flips off the lifeguard raft, landing on the sand. He fires two more balls of water.
<Angela> "You're not old and graying yet, even if you have a grandkid."
* Megumi tilts her head. 1"The important part is it would take a bludgeon instrument of considerable intent to knock it down. It is safe."
* Angela smiles.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya goes inside.
* Drasek` pulls his body back, times slowy down as they pass overtop of him. He stands upright and fires two more shots of water at Darien.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ...
* Ariel shakes her head, "That's because we don't grey."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien turns and runs up the lifeguard tower, blackflipping over the shots.
<Angela> "Oh..."
<DeathStar> 6* He lands, twisting around to fire another attack
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Sides, she's pink now.
<Angela> "Well I don't know much about the Guardians... hehe yeah she is!"
<Angela> "Is Pink a side of old age?"
* Megumi descends the staircase with two buckets of thin crystal. 1"We must stock the armory on each level."
* Drasek` kicks up a cloud of sand.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Armory?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien frowns.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis watches Megumi and Aya play, then smiles, moving to sit with Ariel.
* Megumi moves out of the pagoda and gathers up water, ascending again. 1"Yes, I created chambers to hold water, in case of an invasion."
<DeathStar> <Aya> I see. 6* She follows to gather water, too
* Drasek` has vanished once the sand clears up.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien closes his eyes, sensing out the Progenitor
<Drasek`> 6*To his right?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien doesn't move.
<Drasek`> 6*To his left?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien doesn't move.
<Ariel> "Hair dye is a sign of old age, I believe." *nods sagely*
<Drasek`> 6* Above.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien twists, aiming upward and firing water.
* Drasek` comes zooming down, firing down upon Darien as water flies up and hits him.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien is soaked as well.
* Megumi stocks the pagoda castle with Aya full of water and nods, accomplished.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Now what?
* Angela looks thoughtful. "I know you mentioned before that Guardians live for a long time... I just wonder how... he... set the Dragoons."
* Drasek` lands, straitening up. "You lose, mate."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, did I?
<Drasek`> You're soaked. *He notes*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Check yourself out.
<Megumi> I am unsure. Unless we have an invasion, it is pointless.
<Drasek`> I was swimming.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Who can attack us?
* Megumi taps her lip, then leans to look out upon the beach, waving to Erevis and Ariel and Zephyr.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien smirks, then slams a water ballon into his face.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Grenade.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks and waves back.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... what is that crazy cat doing?
* Drasek` recoils, eyeing Darien. "...I'll be back." He walks off towards his bag.
* Megumi dons her sunglasses and peers about. 1"I heard Drasek earlier, Little Aya. Though I am sure Zephyr is always for a challenge."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien shakes himself off.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya peers out.
<Drasek`> 6* Something comes flyinh down at Darien from above.
* Ariel speaks up after pondering, "I have no idea how long a dragoon lives... I haven't known a Guardian to die of old age."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien is hit
* Drasek` raises up. "Gotcha." It seems to be a 'grenade' like the one darien uses.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien hmms.
* Megumi spots the lifeguard tower and the two, then looks back to Aya. 1"It seems Mister Starr is here, too. What would you like to do?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> I dunno.
* Drasek` glances about, then notices the thing that Megumi obviously built. "Oh god, can I please go break that?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Go ahead.
* Megumi rubs her head and peers around, then puts her hand to the floor of sand and begins fashioning something else, a piston of sorts with tubing from crystal-infused sand and finally a barrel. 1"Here, Little Aya, I will work the pump. Aim for Drasek."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien moves off to do Starr things.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya pauses, then complies.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis decides to nap.
* Megumi takes up a see-saw style handle and begins moving it up and down, building up pressure. 1"Pull that panelling out of the way to fire."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya blinks, then does so
* Drasek` walks along towards it, dramatic like.
<Megumi> 6Depending on Aya's aim, a single short surge of water flies for Drasek. At a good pressure of something similar to a fire hose.
* Megumi works it up for the next shot.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Mom. This trip is getting weird.
* Drasek` dramatically turns to avoid it, placing himself in an interesting location.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya readjusts her aim.
<Ariel> "...are you surprised, Zephyr?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> When SHE's involved, I guess I shouldn't be.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr eyes Erevis asleep. "I just wonder how she puts up with it."
<Megumi> It is all yours, Little Aya. Whenever you are ready, remember, just aim and tug.
* Angela lays back and sighs a bit.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Like this? *tugs*
* Megumi huffs a little. Easily worn out with this.
<Ariel> "Prehaps the old saying is true about opposites."
* Megumi works up the next shot!
<Megumi> Y-Yes. Did you get him?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So, Darien is a zany freak?
* Drasek` dramatically dives to the side, having been standing in front of Erevis.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Nope.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is hit, letting out a cry.
<Megumi> Keep trying. You can do it!
* Megumi pumps, oblivious, but wonders why Erevis would cry.
* Drasek` makes sure Erevis wouldn't see him.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits up, wincing.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya reaims at Drasek
<DeathStar> 6* And tugs
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Drasek did it. 6* She busts out on him
* Drasek` rolls to the side again, this time he was standing in front of Ariel.
* Drasek` pulls up a water pistol and shoots Zephyr.
* Megumi readies the next shot.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr blocks with Angela.
* Drasek` seems satisfied with that and dashes off towards the pagoda, shoulder ramming it.
* Angela acks!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis shakes herself off.
* Ariel chokes on the sudden blast of water.
<DeathStar> <Aya> I can't aim now.
* Megumi blinks as their structure shakes.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya grips Megumi
<Megumi> We are under attack? Pull the lever by the wall, it will drop the side charges!
* Ariel turns the umbrella over, using it as a shield.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ....
<DeathStar> 6* Aya peers around, then pulls what she thinks is a lever.
* Drasek` kneels down and leaps up, climbing up the pagoda.
<Megumi> 6The wall itself spills water over the side much like a medieval tar.
* Megumi grabs one of the buckets and follows it with a splash over the side.
<Megumi> To arms, Little Aya!
<DeathStar> 6* Aya pauses, then mimics, dropping the bucket over.
* Drasek` clutches to the side, water bouncing off of him. He shimmies to the side, then begins to climb up, almost being hit by Aya's bucket.
* Megumi blinks. 1"No, not the actual bucket."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr watches with a somewhat awed look. Awed at what she is witnessing.
* Megumi peers over the side. o.o
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis rises to her feet, then suddenly she eyes Drasek dangerously.
<Drasek`> 6* Water would hit Megumi's face.
* Megumi falls over backwards. 1"..."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares.
<Megumi> I... I have been hit.
<Megumi> It is up to you, Aya. Defend!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis grabs the umbrella, and launches it like a javelin for Drasek's back.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Whoa! HEY!
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares and just hides.
* Drasek` flips onto the top of the pagoda, thank god. He glances about, aiming his water pistol.
<DeathStar> 6* The umbrella is moved by mysterious win to boomerang back for Drasek's head.
* Megumi stares as a wooden pole comes face to face with her.
<DeathStar> *wind
* Megumi dodges and watches it swing around.
<Megumi> Most peculiar.
<DeathStar> <Aya> *ducks her head down*
* Drasek` eyes it, and twists to catch it, pulling his pistol up to fire a water round as Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is hit.
<DeathStar> 6* Drasek would feel himself being tugged over.
<Drasek`> ...Oh bugger.
* Megumi moves over and huddles with Aya. 1"Away from the center is good." 6She nods, and weakens the bonds in the center of the floors and roof, the sand becoming normal.
<DeathStar> <Aya> Um...
<DeathStar> 6* Aya just grips Megumi
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stares at Ariel. "All your friends are insane."
* Angela hides, huddling over Aya and Meg protectively.
* Drasek` struggles to keep himself from going over, turning to aim and fire at Erevis again.
<Ariel> "...I..." *hesitates* "...yes."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis wipes her face.
<Angela> "Looks safe up here."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ....
<Drasek`> I win. Stop using your mind shit on me! *he shakes a fist at her*
* Megumi drops the roof as the floor weakens and sinkholes all the way to the beach level save for the rim that her and Aya are sitting on.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis crosses her arms as Megumi drops the roof on Drasek anyway.
<DeathStar> 6 Zephyr looks at Ariel. "You need new friends."
* Drasek` feels his feet slip and stumbles back to hold onto the wall, he aims and fires at Megumi.
* Megumi looming over Aya, becomes protective and holds her hand up, defensively forcing the water back.
<Ariel> "...I'm starting to think so."
<DeathStar> 6 Erevis sits back down, clearly annoyed and pissed off. Plus she never left, so she can hear Ariel and Zehyr.
* Drasek` drops down, leaving a gift.
<Megumi> Little Aya, hold onto me, okay?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya already is.
<Drasek`> *Something goes boom, sending out a wave of water in all directions.
* Drasek` lands and rolls under some cover.
* Megumi leaps up and lands on the edge of the roof, then drops the bonds in the whole Padoda, riding the little sand bar as the rest of the structure collapse upon Drasek. It's likely her and Aya get wet though.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stares.
* Drasek` is never heard from again.
<Megumi> Drasek wins.
* Megumi sounds dejected. 1"We lost our structure."
* Drasek` rises out of the sand. "Damn right, I do."
<Angela> "Oh we can't allow that."
* Megumi allows Aya down. 1"Are you alright?"
* Drasek` shoots Angela. "Be quiet, you."
* Angela ducks and dodges, tossing a sand ball at Dras, giggling.
* Drasek` gets hit in the side, and tilts his head.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya appears to be rattled.
* Megumi peers between the two throwing water and sand at one another, then turns back to Aya. 1"I will teach you the other manner of swimming if you like. They seem to be enteraining one another."
* Drasek` moves towards the water to wash off the sand, tossing his gun to the side.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya just nods, in a state of shock.
* Megumi takes Aya's hand and leads her back to the water, but pauses. 1"Hold your hands up before you and interlace your fingers." 6She does so as an example.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares blankly.
* Angela walks after Drasek, "Awww, that didn't hurt did it Drassy?"
<Megumi> I just want you to show me a wave motion." 6She makes another example, ushering a rolling wave with her arms and hands.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya complies slowly, snapping out of it
<Megumi> That is how this other way works, but you must make the motion with your body and legs instead, okay?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya just stares.
* Megumi motions to what she's doing with her hands. 1"It works better to show you rather than explain."
<Drasek`> Sand itches. *he says simply*
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods slowlyt.
<Megumi> This way is best used when underwater completely, so before trying it you must take a deep breath and hold it in. If you feel like you are in need of air stop, orientate upward and kick with your feet to surface.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods slowly.
* Megumi wades a little deeper. 1"I will be right beside you, of course."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods slowly.
<Megumi> Come, come.
<DeathStar> 6* Sometime after sitting down and being mad, and now, Erevis has moved out of sight. She is ninja.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya follows Megumi.
<Angela> "Aww... need help washing it out?"
* Megumi peers at Aya, then inhales and curves down into the water in a continuous movement, allowing her feet to submerge behind her with little to no splashing, but before moving, awaits Aya's appearance.
<Drasek`> Sure. Wash my balls. *he motions*
* Angela sticks out her tounge, "In your dreams Drassy."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya just watches.
<Drasek`> Not really. *he says, getting some sand out of his ear*
* Megumi hmms, then makes a semicircle around Aya using the method before surfacing, gazing at her.
* Angela tilts her head, "I suppose I could take that as a good thing."
<DeathStar> <Aya> ... *Gazes back*
<Drasek`> I wouldn't, luv. *he turns to face her* Unless you find me repulsive.
<Megumi> Would you like to try now..?
* Megumi tilts her head curiously.
<DeathStar> <Aya> *shrugs*
<Angela> "I don't, but then if I didn't I might have to feel all sad and rejected."
<Megumi> Is there something else you would like to do..?
<Drasek`> Did I mention your breasts look nice. *he changes the subject*
* Angela blushes a little and giggles, "Now there's some smooth talking."
<DeathStar> <Aya> *shrugs again*
* Drasek` shakes his head. "Not really. Or else I would talk about things that aren't true. Like your witty humor and engaging conversation."
* Angela tilts her head at him and pouts a bit, "You're cruel."
* Megumi leans in slightly and blinks. 1"I am sorry, Little Aya. I am not very fun, I suppose. I used to play with Zephyr, but then, she did most of the planning."
<Drasek`> That I am. *he splashes Angela* You'll do wise to remember that.
<DeathStar> <Aya> I had fun. 6* She fidgets. "I just don't want to ...go under water."
<DeathStar> 6* She eyes it.
* Angela blinks and giggles, splashing back. "Oh I will."
* Drasek` winces, as the salt get in his eye, he pauses and rubs at it. "Darien told me he thought your body was hot." He notes.
<Megumi> Oh. What is wrong with the water?
<DeathStar> <Aya> *looks down at it* Nothin'.
* Angela blushes and looks at his eye in concern. "Really?"
<Megumi> Why do you appear afraid, then?
<DeathStar> <Aya> *squirms*
<Drasek`> Yep. You may just stand a chance with him afterall.
<DeathStar> <Aya> 'cause I don't now how to swim good.
<Angela> "Neat. What do you think of it?"
* Megumi smiles softly. 1"That is... what we are teaching you... right? I will watch you."
<DeathStar> <Aya> Dad says you have...A..D..D. What if you get...ADD?
<Drasek`> Think of what? *he tilts his head* You and Darien?
* Angela grins, "My body." She puts her arms behind her back, wiggling a little bit.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr groans from her spot near Ariel.
<Megumi> I am not sure what that means, but I am here, am I not?
<Drasek`> I didn't refer to it as a smokin hot bod for nothing. *he notes with a shrugs, pulling his hand away from his now red eye*
<DeathStar> <Aya> ... 6* She eyes the water again. She tries to do what Megumi did
* Megumi moves, going underwater if she does, constantly watching her, since she feels obligated now to do so as closely as possible.
* Angela giggles in satisfaction and walks up to him, looking at his eye. "Mmm... don't rub it, let your tears drain out the extra salt."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya doesn't do much moving
<Drasek`> I don't have tears. *he notes*
* Megumi again smiles, trying to encourage her. It's a difficult motion and mostly takes time to get accustomed to.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya brings her head up, wiping her hair out of her eyes like it were a pain
* Megumi surfaces. 1"You are doing well."
* Drasek` tilts his head to look from Angela to Aya, finding it amusing.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya peers back at Drasek, her lower lip trembling.
* Megumi follows her gaze and stares at Drasek, then back to Aya. 1"What is wrong?"
<DeathStar> <Aya> He's laughing at me.
* Drasek` frowns. "I didn't laugh."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya wipes at her eyes.
<Drasek`> Oh god, I'm sorry. *he sighs and moves to walk back onto the beach*
<DeathStar> <Aya> Now he hates me. 6* She begins to sniffle.
<Megumi> Drasek is strange. I doubt that he hates you.
* Angela kneels down and hugs Aya.
<Angela> There there hun...
<DeathStar> 6* Aya looks down at Angela being face level with her chest.
* Angela stands up and blinks.
<Angela> "Tripped."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya stares, apparantly confused out of crying
* Angela hugs her again.
<Angela> "Well there, no more tears."
* Angela makes a silly face.
* Drasek` plops down beside Zephyr. "Why does she try to hard?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods, wiping at her face.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Who?
* Drasek` points.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr peers. "I dunno. Only child."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shrugs.
<Drasek`> It's weird. *he notes*
* Ariel is now known as Ari[AWAY]
<DeathStar> <Aya> I'm tired. 6* She sloshes onto the beach to rest.
* Megumi follows along behind Aya, head tilted for a moment. 1"Alright."
* Angela walks over with her.
* Drasek` glances around. "You see where Revi went?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> She left after Ariel joked about needing new friends.
<Drasek`> What direction?
<Megumi> She likely returned to research, since she did not want to come to begin with.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shrugs.
<Megumi> I would appreciate it if you did not needlessly bother my fiance so often, however.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Ooooo. Territorial.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr grins.
<Drasek`> I would appreciate it you buggered off.
* Angela giggles
* Megumi raises a finger. 1"But then, you ignore my opinion anyway." 6She sits, peering at Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sits down, looking exhausted.
* Angela sits next to her. "I'm thinking it's about time for rest and a snack, what do you think Aya?"
* Drasek` eyes Megumi. "She's her own person, she can talk to whomever she wants."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya shrugs tiredly.
* Megumi eyes Drasek back. 1"Apparently marriage means nothing to you."
<Angela> "Yep, tired Aya."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr blinks.
* Drasek` widens his eyes. "You're bloody bonkers."
<Megumi> You are obsessive.
* Drasek` snorts, laughing.
<Drasek`> Prey tell. What do I obsess over?
* Megumi closes her eyes and yawns, pointing toward Myria's extravagant home. 1"I merely said I did not want you to bother her needlessly. I did not say refrain from speaking to her indefinitely."
<Megumi> Please leave. I do not like arguing at every turn.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stares at Megumi starting a fight in shock.
<Drasek`> Ah, nice. I was sitting here, and you walked up, then you tell me to leave. Brilliant.
<Megumi> You hurt Little Aya's feelings, however unintentionally, then began inquiring of beloved. Am I wrongfully irritated?
<Drasek`> Yeah, you are.
<Megumi> My apologies then, all-knowing Drasek.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stays out of this.
* Angela is now known as Angie|Naptime
* Drasek` stands. "How Revi could be with someone like you, i'll never understand. Because you are made of most everything she seems to dislike." He shakes his head. "But oh well. Later, Zeph." He turns and walks off.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Um, later.
* Megumi brings her knees up and yawns again, opening one eye to peer at Drasek's retreat.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *stands* I think I'll go home now. Come on, Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr takes Aya by the arm and leads her off.
<Megumi> You are forgetting your umbrella.
<Megumi> Shall I return it later?
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr waves her hand. "Do whatever you want."
* Megumi laughs.
* Megumi stands up and brushes herself off, then goes down to retrieve it, probably, amidst other things like pick up the discarded water guns and put some of the sand back more evenly where it belongs.
