* Logging #erevis to 'logs\EsperNet\#erevis.20071205.log'
<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-588.2.2
<DeathStar> Location: L.A.
<DeathStar> 6* For the past three days, there's only been one thing weird about the L.A. gang - no sign of Darien Starr, or his shuttle. But hey, who cares, right? Well, gentle viewer, lets see.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr is tossing a ball up and down while laying on the couch, catching it with her hand and flicking it back up in the air.
* Drasek sits in his chair, he isn't drinking beer for once, he's just kinda staring off into space.
* Angela paces about the lobby, sighing yet again.
* Drasek slowly looks up to Angela, the looks back to the holovid.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr just tosses her ball
* Chad`Winters steps out of his apartment, a pair of goggles on his forehead. He pauses eyeing Angela pacing.
<DeathStar> 6* A robot dog runs out and yips at Angela.
* Ariel has been, unlike seemingly the rest of the crew, a bit anxious lately. She sits by the window, quietly watching the streets.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis is near Ariel, apparantly there for moral support. Her arms are crossed, and she's dressed in black, as usual.
* Chad`Winters slowly peer sover at Zephyr. 1"He still hasn't come back, eh?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Nope.
* Drasek glances up to Ariel now, then at Chad. "Even Ariel has come out of her cave."
<Chad`Winters> You'ld think she was in love with him. 6He says in his neutral tone.
* Angela stops and sighs, looking at them all. "I'm worried sick... he didn't tell anyone..."
<Drasek> Crazy world, mate. *he waves a hand*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Maybe he forgot where he lives.
<Drasek> Happened to me once. *he notes, scratching his nose*
* Angela crosses her arms. "He should have at least told someone..."
<Chad`Winters> Maybe someone asked him where he lives.
* Ariel finally sighs, and looks to Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis glances at Ariel, offering a sympathetic expression.
* Ariel smiles a little, "You don't need to sit here."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not mind.
* Angela goes back to wearing a hole in the floor.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips loudly.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr keeps tossing her ball up and down.
* Angela looks down at it.
<Angela> "Where'd you come from..."
<Ariel> 6* Siawase eyes the ball, staying away from the dog.
* Angela kneels down and looks over Robo Dog.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips dumbly.
* Drasek makes a face. "Turn that thing off."
* Angela blinks a bit and looks it over. "Did anyone buy this?"
* Chad`Winters eyes Angela, staring at her
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips more.
* Angela doesn't seem to notice. "I didn't build it... did you Chad?"
<Chad`Winters> God I wouldn't give my daughter something you built.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sighs. "A real dog would be so much cooler."
<Ariel> 6* Siawase eyes Zephyr
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> What? He could be your sidekick.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr motions at the robotic dog. "That one's too dumb."
* Ariel rests her head against the wall, "...he's been done quite a while."
<Drasek> Most dogs are dumb, bit.
<Ariel> 6* Siawase nods in agreement
* Angela pets the robo dog. "Seems relatively simple."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. I do not think it is a normal behavior pattern from him in this current time period.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog wags his tail, yipping.
* Chad`Winters rolls his eyes as he moves over and leans against the back of the couch. He pulls his datapad out, typing on it.
<Drasek> Maybe he passed out in a bar and lost track of time. *he notes after a minute*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> For 3 days?
<Drasek> It happens. *he shrugs*
<Ariel> Ariel> "I... this... time period...?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You talkin' from experience?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns a bit, perhaps letting too much slip. "Perhaps we should look for him."
* Angela picks up the robo dog and stands, looking around before sitting on the couch.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips loudly in Zephyr's ear.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr puts her hands over her ears.
* Drasek just shrugs. "Everyone falls on dark times, bit."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> What did you say?
<Chad`Winters> Hospitals and Police Logs are clear. 6He taps his chin as he studies
* Ariel nods slowly. "That might be a good idea."
* Drasek motions for her to remove her hands.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shakes her head no. Robo Dog continues to yip.
<Angela> "You don't think the Dark Ones got him... do you?"
* Angela puts the robo dog down.
<DeathStar> 6* It yips on the floor.
<Drasek> Oh dear god, shut that stupid thing up!
* Angela looks for a switch.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog flees.
<Chad`Winters> No reports of an abandoned shuttle. 6He scratches his arm now.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr uncovers her ears.
<Drasek> So. The trauma of Ariel being injured made him go out and drink himself stupid. *he deduces*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> After more than a week?
<Drasek> Took time to settle in. *he nods, clearly not too worried*
<DeathStar> 6 *Erevis peers at Chad as he checks the areas.
<Angela> "He was fine..."
<Angela> "I don't think he went drinking."
<Drasek> ...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> He does not appear to be a drinker in this time period.
* Chad`Winters glances at Erevis, studying her briefly.
<Drasek> Least I know we'll be drinking buddies is some other time period.
<Angela> "Careful, we shouldn't get details."
* Angela eyes the holovid.
<Drasek> So we going to keep doing the waiting game?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. You are correct. If the Dark Ones have taken Darien Starr, I do not know if we would find evidence. However, since we are not all dead, it is unlikely they have him.
* Chad`Winters looks at Drasek. 1"Unlike you, I'm looking."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Well, lets do what someone once taught me. Eliminate the possible scenarios. Who all wants us?
<Drasek> What else can I do, mate? Want me to go scout the town? I could, but the dink is in a shuttle, I doubt he's in L.A.
<Angela> "Legion. Asmodeaus."
<Chad`Winters> Dark Ones. Legion. The government.
<Angela> "Yeah... government too..."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Okay. We can't track the Dark Ones, or Legion, so lets try the government.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers at the silent Ariel.
<Chad`Winters> Poilice Logs are one thing, going into Goverment data is harder.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Oh, and here I thought you could do anything. 6* She looks crushed and disappointed.
* Ariel is listening... but this isn't her specialty.
<Chad`Winters> I said it was harder, not impossible. 6He makes a face at Zephyr.
* Angela smiles a little.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Maybe there's some way we could track him. Does Darien have anything special that could be easy to track?
<Angela> "I might be able to help... his shuttle beacon."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks at Angela dumbly.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Huh?
<Drasek> His clunker has a beacon in it?
<Angela> "His shuttle, all shuttles from the old war had beacons... or should."
<Chad`Winters> His shuttle was an older model.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You think that paranoid guy would have a beacon in it?
<Chad`Winters> He probably removed it right away.
<Angela> "And give up a way to track his baby if it got stolen? He'd have something on it."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Did he give you his personal tracker?
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks curious now.
* Angela looks at her, "No... but if he's using somethign of his own make I could probably figure it out."
<Drasek> Like hell you could. You're not that lucky.
<Angela> "Luck has nothing to do with it."
<Chad`Winters> Give me a moment. 6He begins typing on his datapad.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits beside Ariel, not really having anything useful to add.
* Drasek chuckles slightly, adding nothing furthur.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Personally, I'd be surprised if you could. If I go near the shuttle, Darien gives me this look. I almost peed once.
* Drasek slowly glances at Zephyr. "Peed, eh? Scared you good then. Or you couldn't stop laughing."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Hrmph.
<Angela> "He lets me touch it."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> That sounded so wrong, and I'm only 14.
* Angela blinks.
* Drasek bursts out laughing.
<Drasek> Careful, Ariel will swat you one good, luv.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Okay, any ideas on why he would even take the shuttle out?
<Angela> "Investigation?"
<Drasek> He's a pilot. He likes to fly.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I doubt he has anything to investigate.
<Chad`Winters> Most likely a joyride. 6he tilts his head, still tapping.
<Drasek> You know of anywhere he wanted to go?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Okay, a joyride. Anything a pilot who wants to joyride would do?
* Ariel sighs, "No idea... and, knowing Darien... it'd be useless looking for a tracker, because he'd have used something from an early jet propelled aircraft, or a prop plane..."
* Angela looks at Zephyr, "Better question..."
<Chad`Winters> There's not that big of an area he can go with a shuttle like that. He'd stand out.
<Angela> "Anything a pilot joyriding WOULDN'T want to do."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> See, that's what I'm thinking. Flying around aimlessly, you're begging to get busted
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So, where would a pilot go where he might not be noticed?
<Chad`Winters> Desert, canyons. Moutain areas.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Satelites cover everything.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr ponders, getting a Warren look, despite having no real memory of him
<Drasek> Or heavily populated areas with people like us.
<Chad`Winters> Water. 6He shrugs.
<Angela> "If he's added a cloaking device to it..."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I don't suppose anyone thought to investigate his room?
<Drasek> Boy wouldn't that be funny.
<Chad`Winters> Ask Angela to, I'm sure she knows her way around it.
<DeathStar> <Robo Dog> Yip yip Yip
<Ariel> "......"
<Angela> "There's not much in there, so it'd be easy for anyone."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Ariel, trying to judge her emotional state.
<Drasek> Ouch, mate. I think you pissed pinky off.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'll go hunt through his room, then
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr bounces off, eager.
<Chad`Winters> Nice cover. 6He notes neutrally. His eyes still focused on the datapad.
* Angela scratches her head, not getting it, apparently.
<Chad`Winters> Playing stupid, even more convincing. 6He narrows his eyes.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Do we know of any hobbies Darien Starr has? 6* She looks at Ariel for answers.
<Drasek> She could just be that stupid, mate.
<Chad`Winters> Oh it's very possible.
<Angela> "Stupid about what?"
* Ariel considers, "Well... flying is the big one. He loves his old planes."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> And that is all? He only enjoys flying? 6* She frowns. "This is not helpful."
* Angela stares at Ariel now.
<Angela> "...Planes?"
<Chad`Winters> Flying, investigating, conspiracies, woman...6He taps his foot as he types on his datapad, watching something
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You believe he is involved in a flying conspiracy investigating a woman?
<Ariel> "......"
<Angela> "...Well it matches the profile... but I don't think that's what Chad thinks..."
<Drasek> Wouldn't that be lovely.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Ariel. "I have offended you."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I have solved the case! 6* She leaps out with a smug look
* Drasek glances up at Zephyr. "He was asleep under his bed?"
* Chad`Winters looks up at Zephyr. 1"Shoot." 6He motions for her to talk.
<Ariel> "No, you haven't Erevis." *looks to Zephyr*
* Angela looks at Zeph.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr holds out a Playboy magazine, then pauses, crimson red. "Wrong one, hold on." 6* She shifts, pulling out a flyer for a Aerial Race involving older model ships.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Am I not the best?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head.
<Chad`Winters> Where was it taking place? 6He focuses on Zephyr now.
* Ariel takes the other magazine from Zephyr and rolls it up.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks at the magazine. "Lemme see, it said it took place about 3---hey!"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pouts at Ariel. "I only wanted to read the articles."
<Kuroichigo> Megumi "Seems logical for Mister Starr, Dearest Zephyr."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr turns to Megumi. "STOP CALLING ME DEAREST, YOU FREAK."
<Drasek> That has some great articles in it. *he notes with a nod*
<Chad`Winters> Zephyr where the race took place please and the time?
<Kuroichigo> * Megumi squints. "I am not a freak. I am Famfrit."
* Angela tosses a nip mouse at Megumi.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Oh, right. 6* She looks back down at the flyer. "It took place 3 days ago, around the moon."
<Chad`Winters> That helps. 6he begins typing on his datapad.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sulks at Ariel.
* Drasek covertly snatches the magazine from Ariel, moving over to his seat to sit down and read it.
<Kuroichigo> * Megumi freaks and swipes her hand, blowing it and Angela backwards. "I-It is not time to be cute..."
* Ariel smacks Drasek with it when he tries
<Drasek> Ow! He stole that from me anyway!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> So you believe he participated in this race?
<Chad`Winters> His pride would tell him to do it.
<Ariel> "...that's for you to take up with him."
<Chad`Winters> Good job Zephyr.
* Angela stnads up and frowns at Megumi.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Really, you think you people have never watched TV before. You always investigate the victim's room.
* Drasek grumbles. "Didn't even seem interested still I mentioned that I thought Angela was one of the models." He crosses his arms, clearly pouting.
<Chad`Winters> But than if I did that, I'd still be trying to hack into Earthgov Satellites.
<Kuroichigo> * Megumi yawns behind her hand after manifesting. "... It appears I need more rest..." She moves forward so that her narcolepsy would reach the couch but falls short by a foot.
* Chad`Winters leans close to his datapad now, his entire attention focused on it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands up and moves Megumi onto the top of the couch
<Angela> "Models...? Me?"
<Ariel> 6* Siawase scrambles out of the way
* Angela looks at Drasek.
<Drasek> Well clearly it wasn't you, luv. She could pass for your twin though. Betty Buxom was her name I think.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Ew.
<Kuroichigo> * Megumi curls up subconsciously, shrinking up to only have the couch's length and yawns again.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns back to the others now.
* Angela arches a brow. "Odd name."
<Drasek> She's a very talented girl, Zeph. *he coughs* Anyway. How are we going to get out to the moon to look for him?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We will need a shuttle.
<Drasek> Stealing one is possible. Though that would probably get the pigs after us.
* Angela sighs a bit, looking down.
<Ariel> "...the pigs?"
<Angela> "Police, Ariel."
* Ariel goes to say something, then stops.
<Drasek> Nasty gits.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I have come to understand the law enforcement is called me derrogative names by the people they protect
<Chad`Winters> Poor sap got second. 6He taps his foot on the floor.
<DeathStar> *by
* Drasek scoffs.
<Drasek> Protect. Bah. Those pigs are so corrupted that the Dark Ones give them respect.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is illogical
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head
<Chad`Winters> We need a shuttle for sure now. 6He puts his datapd onto his belt.
* Drasek eyes Erevis. "You'd be surprised how logical it can be."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> This is not the time for philosophy.
* Drasek nods his head. "I agree. Let's go find our mate. Before he can't be found."
<Ariel> "...did he actually enter under his own name?"
<Chad`Winters> That'd be foolish. 6He scoffs at Ariel.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You don't think your boyfriend is dumb, do you, Mom?
<Angela> "I could try and see if I could acquire one..."
<Drasek> She asked, didn't she?
* Angela glances at Ariel.
<Chad`Winters> The twinkies got a point. 6He nods to Drasek.
<Drasek> Twinkies?
<Ariel> "He has overlooked things like that before..."
<Angela> "He knows what kinda situation we're in..."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> What about him appeals to you again? 6* She looks confused
<Drasek> It's the hair, luv. It's gotta be.
<Chad`Winters> It's his pilot air of arrogane. It always kills the ladies. 6He pulls his datapad out again, studying it.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> No, seriously, he's not a blonde, Drasek
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stays out of this one. What attracts people to one another, she still hasn't hammered down
* Drasek arches a brow. "Well that's just ridiculous.
* Angela shakes her head.
<Ariel> "...can we just get to saving him now?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You seriously don't know why, do you. 6* Her eyes widen.
<Chad`Winters> We'll, let's get on our way. 6He pushes away from the couch and moves to the front door, all dramatic like.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I guess one of us has to stay home and watch Aya, but I wanna go! 6* She pouts at Chad.
* Chad`Winters pauses, his head hanging.
<Drasek> Megumi is here. *he notes*
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Right, Megumi it is.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr grabs a coat and runs out
* Angela grabs her jacket.
* Chad`Winters eyes Zephyr like she's crazy as she runs by and she turns, moving into the apartment to talk to Aya.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya hides her remote controller. "Hi, Daddy."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis puts a blanket over Megumi, and gives Siawase a pat. "You watch over them."
<Chad`Winters> Hey princess. 6He kneels down infront of her.
<Ariel> 6* Siawase nods and stands guard.
* Drasek hops up. "So how are we getting a shuttle?" He pulls on his coat.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pokes her head in. "If it's not his brains, is it his looks you find attractive?"
* Ariel joins Chad.
* Chad`Winters slowly looks back at Ariel, in his apartment.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You only followed him to ignore me! 6* She shouts.
<Drasek> Your mum is a interesting lass. *he notes*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Graaagh. How will I know what qualities to look for in a man if she doesn't tell me what she finds in Darien!
<Chad`Winters> Daddy and Zephyr are going to go look for Darien. Can you be a big girl and be home by yourself?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya nods.
* Angela hugs Zeph.
<Chad`Winters> Megumi's hear for you to watch and take care of so you won't be entirely alone.
* Drasek rubs the back of his head. "It's different for every person, Zeph."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> But--But Darien's totally not like her!
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Do they have anything in common?!
<Drasek> Opposites attract.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So, I should find a man who's different than me?
<DeathStar> 6* Aya waves at Ariel. "Gwood wuck!"
<Drasek> If you want. *he shrugs*
<Chad`Winters> You know where the comm that's directly to me is. And remember what we talked about in case someone comes that's a bad guy.
<Angela> "Could work."
<Drasek> On second thought. No, stay away from men. Their evil.
<Angela> "Never pick a man who agrees with you completely."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You're evil?
* Drasek arches a brow. "Drunken pervert." He points to himself.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands there, eyeing them all.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Is that why you're with a woman, Erevis?
* Drasek tilts his head, glancing at Erevis.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... We should go
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps out all Angel like.
<Drasek> That means she doesn't actually like Megumi. *he whispers*
* Chad`Winters leans in and kisses Aya. 1"Be good and I'll be back as soon as I save that retard Darien's life." 6He smiles at her turns, going.
* Angela sighs softly. "You'll knwo when you find the right one Zeph."
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> 6* After attaining a shuttle in an action packed scene our budget couldn't handle, the team flies to the moon
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So, Mom, seriously? Name a trait you find sexy in Darien.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sits upside down beside Ariel.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits in the co-pilot seat.
<Ariel> "...should you really be talking about your mother's boyfriend that way?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> If you don't set me straight in life, who will? Angela?
* Chad`Winters eyes the heading. 1"We're going to land on Wings."
<Chad`Winters> NRP: at.
* Drasek crosses his arm, "God don't let that happen."
* Angela sits off to the side, looking at the repair panel.
<Chad`Winters> I'm going to warn you, a pilot's bar is not your normal bar.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Because it has pilots?
<Ariel> "...I... you have a point."
* Angela ignores the conversations.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So, tell me.
<Drasek> So I'm telling you. He's drunk somewhere with some old pilot buddies of his.
<Chad`Winters> Nothing goods comes out of a bar full of pilots.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. Are pilots evil?
<Drasek> Cocky bastards, that's for sure.
<Ariel> "He's always had a certain charm to him... right mix of a boyscout and a scoundrel, I suppose."
<Angela> "Hey, Pilots aren't that bad."
<Chad`Winters> Cocky. 6He agrees on that.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I see. So you like a scoundrel.
* Drasek arches a brow, and glances at Ariel. "I'm a scoundrel." he announces.
<DeathStar> 6* They arrive at the moon colony.
<Chad`Winters> They'll try and woo you with extravagent stories of how they flew through an asteroid field with one engine failed and no reverse thrusters. 6He brings them in to dock.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. And this is suppose to woo me how?
<Chad`Winters> Ask Ariel. 6He flips several switches.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Ariel for an explanation
<Angela> "Some people like confidence. SOme people like insanity, pilots are a good combination of the two."
<Chad`Winters> Ignore her, she's still suffering from post dramatic stress.
<Drasek> Ruddy gits, they all are.
* Chad`Winters pauses then turns back to look at Angela. 1"You know, haven't you always had a thing for pilots Angela?"
<Angela> "I'm glad you caught on so quick Chad."
* Chad`Winters taps his chin as he stands up. 1"Hey Zephyr, isn't Darien a pilot?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Yes.
* Chad`Winters waves his hand. 1"Must be coincidence."
* Drasek smiles. "That's convinient."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She just tilts her head. "I am a pilot."
<Angela> "Erevis is."
<Angela> "I am too."
* Drasek stares.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... ... I'm a pilot... 6* She squeaks, scared now
* Chad`Winters pauses than looks at Erevis and Angela. 1"So that's why you...Oh. We should keep that a hush."
* Angela yawns.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Perhaps we should locate Darien Starr.
<Drasek> So. Everyone's a pilot but me?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Mom can't fly shuttles.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> But she can fly.
<Chad`Winters> Of course. 6He nods and goes to the ramp, lowering it.
<Drasek> I can shoot down shuttles with my bare hands. *he notes, with a smile, standing up*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *pretends to swoon*
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> Location: Pilots Bar "Wings"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis coughs on the cigar smoke the second she walks in.
<DeathStar> 6* In the background, two pilots are beating each other up over which model is better, A, or B.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks around with a curious look
* Drasek glances around, used to this atmosphere. He looks for their lovable Darien.
* Chad`Winters glances around and moves straight for the bar counter.
<DeathStar> 6* A man puts an arm around Erevis. "Hey, babe. Did you hear about the time I flew through an asteroid field with one enigne that failed and had no reverse thrusters?"
* Angela yawns a bit and walks through the bar like she owns the place, stopping to fiddle around with a console which appears to have a flight sim on it.
<DeathStar> 6* The bartender wipes his counter, ignoring Chad.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr scurries off to get into trouble like only a 14 year old can. Ariel's too out of it to notice anyway
* Ariel sighs... this isn't going to be fun. She takes the man's arm off Erevis, "She's taken. And no, not by me."
<Chad`Winters> Beer. 6He tosses out some creds.
<DeathStar> 6* The man eyes Ariel, then scuffs. "Look, are you suppose to be the ugly friend, Pink?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head, then proceeds to hit the man in the throat, crushing his windpipe temporarily, and throws him onto a table, causing a mess. She nods once, looking completely fine, as if she does that all the time, then looks at Ariel.
* Drasek moves off to get to know the locals.
<DeathStar> 6* The bartender eyes Chad, taking the credits and setting down a beer
<Chad`Winters> So I hear there was quite the race a few days back.
* Angela steps away from the machine and takes a seat at the bar, pulling her hair back.
<DeathStar> <Man> Yeah, what about it?
<Chad`Winters> Who took the top three? 6He takes a swig of his beer.
<DeathStar> 6* The man eyes him. "Go watch a holovid, pal."
* Angela shakes her head a little, tapping two fingers on the bar and looking around at the drinks.
<Chad`Winters> Right. 6He tosses down a tip and moves off, pulling out his datapad and begins typing on it
<DeathStar> 6* The bartender takes the tip.
* Chad`Winters glances around then, turns moving towards someone.
* Drasek begins a rousing game of pool with some other guys.
<DeathStar> 6* The man groans on the table. The men who were on the table begin to approach Ariel and Erevis, not looking happy.
<Angela> "Bartender..."
<DeathStar> <Bartender> Yeah, whaddya want?
* Chad`Winters walks upto a guy. 1"Hey, weren't you in the race a few days back?"
<Angela> "A glass of water and a smile." *she smiles softly, laying some credits on the counter*
<DeathStar> <Pilot> Yeah, I was. You want an autograph? 6* He laughs, his pilot friends laugh
<DeathStar> <Bartender> We don't serve water here.
<Angela> "Anything that doesn't contain alchohol?"
<DeathStar> <Bartender> Do I look klike I don't serve anything like that in here?
<Chad`Winters> I'ld just lose it anyways. 6He waves his hand. 1"Pretty tight race, eh?"
<DeathStar> <Pilot> It was fairly normal
<DeathStar> 6* One guy pushes Erevis back. "You just ruined our meal, bitch." 6* Erevis tilts her head, then reaches out, grabs his hand, and proceeds to bend it backwards.
* Ariel eyes the men, but says nothing until addressed.
* Angela tilts her head at him. "And here I thought you could do a lady a favor."
<Chad`Winters> Any reason why the guy in the lead fell back to second?
<DeathStar> <Bartender> Maybe when you grow up, kid, I'll show you a real favor. 6* He laughs
<DeathStar> <Pilot> *shrugs* PRobably didn't have the balls to keep up.
* Drasek strikes up a conversation while he hustles the men. Mostly about the race.
* Angela smiles softly.
<DeathStar> 6* The man's friend goes to deal with Erevis, since she's such a bitch.
* Ariel interposes herself between the man and Erevis, "You... really don't want to do that."
<Angela> "Maybe you can tell me then, anyone been through here lately with any classic ships?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods her head, throwing the one man back. "Yes. She could kill you in over 30 different methods. Most of them painful."
<DeathStar> 6* The man eyes Ariel, as if trying to decide if he believes that
<Chad`Winters> Did the guy come back here after the race was over?
<DeathStar> 6* The bartender scoffs and goes to serve a real adult
<DeathStar> <Pilot> Yeah. Real loud one. Totally bragging about his ship.
* Angela sighs.
<Chad`Winters> Cocky bastard. Here let me get you guys a drink. 6He motions for drinks.
<DeathStar> 6* The bartender complies.
<DeathStar> 6* The pilots eye Chad, as if sizing him up.
<Chad`Winters> Anyone knock the guy out for talking his ship up like that?
<DeathStar> 6* The man decides Ariel isn't all that, and throwes a punch
<DeathStar> <Pilot> No.
* Ariel just grabs his fist and throws him to the ground. "...careful. Don't want to make a mess here."
<DeathStar> 6* The man struggles. "Let me go, you bitch."
<Ariel> "She's right. I could hurt you if I wanted to. But we're not after trouble." *lets go*
* Ariel also steps back
<DeathStar> 6* The man scurries away, vowing revenge when Ariel least expects it
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I believe we are fitting in quite well, Ariel.
* Chad`Winters takes a drink of his beer. 1"You know if he stills around?"
<DeathStar> <Pilot> He left 3 days ago with some military guys.
<Ariel> "...I wish I could say you were wrong."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Why? Do you wish for us to not fit in? 6* She seems confused now.
* Angela scoops her credits up and stands, fixing her jacket.
<Chad`Winters> You remember what military uniform they were wearing?
<DeathStar> <Pilot> EarthGov, duh.
<Chad`Winters> Right. 6He rolls his eyes as if he had an idiot moment there.
<DeathStar> 6* The pilots down their drinks
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr seems to be getting hot on by some pilots, who have given her one of their leather jackets.
* Drasek finishes the game, holding his hand out. "Sorry Gents. Real close match there." He awaits his money.
* Angela looks at Zeph and grins a little.
<Chad`Winters> Well it was nice to meet you. I'll be sure to watch you in the races more often now. 6He nods and turns to move.
<Ariel> "Just hoping things don't get more... eventful."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis watches Chad return. "Did you secure leads?"
* Drasek takes his cash from them, then slips off, getting a beer on the way back to the others.
<Chad`Winters> Aye, he left the same day with some military guys. 6He leans in close to her. 1"I'll start running through the logs to see what shuttle left and start tracking them.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. Did they capture him?
* Ariel goes to collect Zephyr
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks up as her mom comes over. The three pilots eye her. "Older sister?"
* Angela moves over to Ariel and Zeph.
<Chad`Winters> Not sure. They guy never mentioned any sort of fight or anything.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. I would find it hard to believe Darien Starr would go without a fight.
* Ariel just smiles, resting a hand on Zephyr's shoulder, "Come on. We've got to go now."
* Drasek takes a swig of his beer as he steps up. "He would if they threatened his girl."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Bye, boys. 6* She waves and follows Ariel.
<Chad`Winters> Agreed. 6He pulls hit datapad out and begins typing on it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. This is a logical deduction.
* Angela walks off with Zeph.
<DeathStar> 6* A guy who happens to be near Chad and the others speaks up. "You talking about that pilot who went with the Government officals?"
* Chad`Winters glances over to the guy. 1"Yeah, you know anything about it?"
<DeathStar> <Guy> *shrugs* I thought I recognized him as a General once. And from the looks of it, I thought I was right, because he sure seemed to be buddy buddy with the three guys who came in here.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shifts in her new leather coat. "I wonder how much I can sell this for."
<Ariel> It's a nice jacket.
<Drasek> I'll give you. *he counts the money he won* 20 creds for it.
* Angela blinks a bit on hearing this.
* Chad`Winters glances at Erevis than back at the guy. 1"Anything else?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> 50.
<DeathStar> <Guy> That's it. 6* He walks off to get a beer.
<Drasek> 30.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> 50.
<Drasek> 35?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Fif-ty.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis crosses her arms. She seems to be considering things.
<Drasek> I'll pass. *he frowns*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You sure? It's supposedly big among British people.
<Chad`Winters> Well now we know why. 6He types on his datapad, trying to get into the docking logs for an Earthgov Shuttle arriving and leaving.
* Angela looks at Chad.
<Ariel> *leans over to Drasek* "I bet she'll go down to 60."
<Angela> "Wait... if they left with him, his shuttle might still be here."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is a possibility.
* Drasek coughs, glancing at Ariel. "I'm not a retard." He motions to Angela. "Go talk to her."
* Angela thumps Drasek's head.
* Drasek winces. "I was kidding."
<Chad`Winters> We should start heading to the docking bay. 6He turns, stepping out of the bar.
<Angela> "Karma has already struck, I'm afraid."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis follows Chad Winters.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr walks along, looking cooler than Drasek
* Drasek steps out, frowning at Zephyr. "If only I hadn't bought that beer." He curses his luck, since he actually only won fifty creds.
<Angela> "I like the jacket Zeph, you look cool."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You can buy it when we get home.
<Drasek> With my change in the sock drawer?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You could be my man slave for a week
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Where do you think they would take Darien Starr? 6* She asks Chad Winters, apparantly focused on their objective.
<Drasek> That would be a frightful week.
<Chad`Winters> I'm not sure yet. I mean he left with friends. Even if they were EarthGov. Either he got double crossed and they took him back to any one of EarthGov's bases or they're off on a merry old reunion.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> A merry old reunion?
<Angela> "Why do you suppose he didn't tell us anything?"
<Ariel> "Can't you get at surveillance footage?"
<Chad`Winters> Right, probably the double cross. 6He steps into the docking bay and moves towards a certain section
* Chad`Winters stops infront of the dock that Darien parked in.
* Drasek steps in, hands in his pockets as he glances about. He steps up to Chad.
* Angela looks at the dock.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes the locked doors.
<Chad`Winters> The EarthGov shuttle left back for Earth. 6He notes as he glances at the locked doors.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> And they left Darien Starr's shuttle here?
<Angela> "We should take it back."
<Chad`Winters> It's still registered here.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Perhaps I am merely suspicious by nature, but this seems as if it could be a trap
<Chad`Winters> Under the name, Lord Voldemort.
* Drasek blinks. "You're kidding?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head. "I do not understand."
<Ariel> ".... he called himself a lord?"
<Chad`Winters> You're most likely correct. 6He begins typing on his datapad. 1"I never kid."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So, out of all of us talented people, who's going to get us in?
* Angela sighs and takes out her datapad.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I could get us in, but I might also set off alarms.
<Drasek> I could do it. But then I-*he pauses and eyes Erevis*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Drasek oddly
<Drasek> I could do it better. *he finally says, crossing his arms*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Unlikely. 6* She looks the other way.
* Angela looks at the door carefully and pulls a few items out of her jacket, setting one against the door, scanning for security devices.
<DeathStar> 6* Just your standard issue ones
* Angela shakes her head and takes out another device, attaching it to the door, she enters a security spike and disables them, standard fare.
<DeathStar> 6* The security system is spiked.
* Angela opens the door.
<DeathStar> 6* The doors open, and they can see Darien's shuttle.
* Kit[Work] is now known as Kit
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis still looks the other way. "I would have been faster." 6* She tells Drasek
* Angela sweeps her datapad over the interior, scanning again.
* Drasek scoffs. "Not on your best day, luv."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Your misguided notions will lead to your downfall.
<DeathStar> 6* All good from here on out
<Drasek> I could say the same for you.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> IT would be an inaccurate statement.
* Angela steps inside and looks about.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis enters the shuttle.
* Kit is now known as Megumi
* ChanServ sets mode: -o Megumi
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So, since those two are opposites, are they attracted? 6* She asks Ariel
* Chad`Winters steps forward and moves towards the shuttle and then in it
* Angela looks for clues.
<Ariel> "Magentics and..." *pauses* "...let's just say it doesn't work that way."
<Drasek> Innacurate my ass! *he moves after Erevis* You think you're so high and mighty.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am not very high, but I am mighty.
<DeathStar> 6* No clues.
<Chad`Winters> This is going to be rough leaving probably. 6He sits down in the pilots seat, apparently satisified with something.
* Drasek scoffs again. "You're cute, luv. Really."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Please refrain from calling me cute.
* Angela checks on the shuttle's beacon, or where it should be.
<DeathStar> 6* No beacon, bitch. HA HA
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis takes a seat next to him. "Have you found anything, Chad Winters?"
<Chad`Winters> Alright guys, get ready for a rough ride. 6He begins to power the shuttle up. 1"Yes."
* Drasek sits down, grumbling still.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> And what have you learned?
* Ariel sits down on the shuttle
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sits as well
<Chad`Winters> Oh come now, the mysteries the best part. 6He flicks several switches, unlocking the shuttle and he begins to back out.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Would not the answer be the best part?
* Angela smiles a bit and sits down, "At least they aren't going to track us..."
* Angela sweeps the shuittle looking for bugs just to be safe.
<Chad`Winters> Not knowing is what makes it so fun. 6He spins around aroud begins heading out.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I disagree. I wish to know.
<Chad`Winters> And that Erevis, is what makes it so fun. 6He eyes the readouts as he flies
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns. "You are teasing me."
<Chad`Winters> Do you not enjoy being teased?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I find it frustrating at times.
<Drasek> Shows that she a dunce.
<Drasek> NRP: is a*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers back at Drasek
<Angela> "Just crack him over the head."
<Drasek> I'm warning you. I'll crack back next time. *he points at Angela*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks ahead. "Perhaps it is more fun not knownig."
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> Location: Outside L.A.
* Kuroichigo has quit IRC (Quit: jmIrc destroyed by the OS)
<DeathStar> <Erevis> A military base is the answer.
<DeathStar> 6* Yes, indeed, Chad Winters has taken them to a military base.
<Chad`Winters> And there goes all the fun. 6He sighs as if heartbroken.
<Drasek> Soo. We're just gonna fly in there and say, "Howdy gents, how's your mum?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Why would we do that?
<Drasek> Well we don't want to be rude.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You are being silly again, are you not?
<Angela> "He is, I hope."
<Angela> "THat or he's been into Chad's stash."
<Drasek> I'm not silly, luv. That's not manly. *he crosses his arms*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Very well.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> So, what IS the battle plan?
<Drasek> Throwing the walking tank in there? *he motions at Ariel*
* Megumi sits up on the couch drowsily and peers around. It's too quiet.
<Chad`Winters> I'm up for anything. Getting in and getting out quickly is going to be impossible since we don't have a lay out of the base or know where he is
<Ariel> "I don't think I can take on a whole base in my condition." *glances at Erevis*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks at Ariel, then at the others. "Oh, do you wish for me to formulate a plan?'
<Drasek> Aren't you supposed to be our boss or something?
<Drasek> Not that I need one, mind you.
<Ariel> "I'll listen to anyone's ideas right now, but... I am incapible of bringing out the heavy firepower at the moment."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am the boss? Fascinating.
<Chad`Winters> So what's the battle plan than Erevis? 6He looks at her briefly
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis considers thoughtfully. "Very well, here is what we will do, we shall---" 6* Suddenly a truck can be seen speeding out of the base, slamming into the gates and knocking them aside. Other vehicles chase after the truck.
<Drasek> Pick up the gent that's in that truck? *he motions*
* Megumi gets up off the couch, wondering when she got there, and wanders around. Someday she needs new clothes.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns, as if put off a little at the interruption. "It would be logical, if it is Darien Starr."
<Chad`Winters> I like Drasek's plan. 6He shifts the shuttle sideways and begins to pull up comming in for a loop.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis keeps frowning, a little sullen now.
* Ariel checks to see if Darien has any larger scale weapons on this boat.
<DeathStar> 6* Apparantly not.
* Angela twiddles her thumbs.
<DeathStar> 6* The escape truck is fired at by the other trucks, though the shots miss each time.
* Drasek whistles. "We need some music for this intense scene."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands up, moving to the back to get by the ramp controls for the shuttle, assuming Chad plans to pick up Darien in some manuever.
* Chad`Winters eyes the happenings, his face remaining neutral. He shifts the shuttle around to come in on the drivers's side of the truck.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances out the window, then goes bug eyed.
<DeathStar> 6* He appears to be shouting curses or something obscene at them.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lowers the ramp controls.
* Ariel moves to the hatch and secures herself.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I think he's calling you names, Chad.
<Chad`Winters> It would go along with what I'm thinking currently. 6He pulls the shuttle forward so the ramp lines up with the truck door.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien opens the truck door, leaning out. "IF YOU HURT THAT SHIP, WINTERS!" 6* He shouts
<Angela> "It's safe Darien!"
<Angela> "So far!"
* Ariel moves to the edge of the ramp, and extends her hand as far as she can reach.
* Chad`Winters drops the shuttle down going under something and scratching the belly of the shuttle. 1"Did he say something?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers at the enemy vehicles, who appear to be having trouble catcvhing up.
* Drasek glances over his shoulder at Darien. "That's rude. We should leave him here."
<DeathStar> <Darien> OF YOU MOTHER FUCKER!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leaps out, catching Ariel's hand.
* Ariel grabs Darien and pulls him inside.
<Chad`Winters> Did he say lower? 6He lowers the shuttle again, dragging it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis raises the ramp controls
<Angela> "Chad. Stop."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien doesn't stop to thank Ariel, charging and grabbing Chad, throwing him out of the pilot seat and takes the seat.
* Angela looks upset.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr whsitles.
* Chad`Winters tumbles back and lands on his back.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien flies up quickly.
<Drasek> Apparently Angela is upset that we saved her love interests life.
* Ariel flops on the floor of the shuttle.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She tilts her head down at Ariel. "We have saved him."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances back. "Oh, by the way, thanks for saving me, guys!"
<Angela> "I'm upset that Chad hurt the shuttle."
* Chad`Winters grunts and sits up. 1"Right, I'll be more concerned with the sh..Hurt the shuttle."
<Drasek> We missed you, mate! *he hops up, patting Darien on the back*
<Ariel> "...no problem, Voldemort."
<Drasek> And by we. I mean Ariel and Angela.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien coughs.
<Drasek> Lucky git. *he mumbles, sitting down*
<Chad`Winters> Right, shuttles have feelings. 6He roles his eyes and he stands up dusting himself up.
* Angela knocks Dras on the head again.
<Angela> "This one does."
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, how'd you guys find me? 6* He sounds confused.
* Drasek accidently pops Angela in the chin.
<Drasek> Sorry luv. Hand slipped.
* Angela sniffles and looks like she's going to cry.
<Angela> "H-How could you hit a girl...?"
<Drasek> I hit a girl? *he sneers*
<Chad`Winters> Zephyr found a flyer for your race next to a playboy.
<DeathStar> <Darien> And you put all the pieces together from that?
<Drasek> The playboy you stole from me! *he points*
<Angela> "Yes, you did."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis crosses her arms, silent.
<Drasek> Seriously, mate. You could've asked.
<Chad`Winters> You question my abilties to track people?
* Drasek seems to have forgot about poor Angela at the announcement of the playboy.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, I guess I underestimated you. Next time I'm brutually kidnapped, I'll just wait for you to save me.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien flashes a lopsided grin.
<Chad`Winters> Brutually? Your pilot buddies said you walked off peacefully.
<DeathStar> 6 *Darien pauses momentarily. "Huh?'
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> It's okay you admit you got weak in the legs and walked off instead of fighting like a scoundral.
<Drasek> Well, if you don't mind looking like a nancy boy, that is.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien just frowns. "Hmph."
<Chad`Winters> Guy even said you knew the group that took you.
<Angela> "Maybe he was planning to surprise them."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You see? Angela has faith in me.
<Chad`Winters> She just wants to have sex with you. 6He leans against a chair
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks at Ariel. "So, you were worried about me?"
<Drasek> She just-*he sighs that Chad beat him too it*
* Angela notes Chad;'s movements are wise, he's protecthign where she wants to kick.
<Ariel> "Of course. Who knew what horrors you might be subjecting them to." *sits up finally*
<DeathStar> 6 *Darien sighs goodnaturedly. "And here I was going to let you go on the next race with me, but now, I'm not."
<Chad`Winters> About that Darien. I think your grounded for this whole stunt.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You're not the leader!
<Drasek> Revi is. She can make the call.
<Chad`Winters> We have a leader?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am allowed to punish him? 6* She looks at Ariel.
<Angela> "Are we going by... what standards here for leadership?"
<Drasek> You always look to her for answers. *he notes to Chad*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, personally, I nominate myself the leader.
<Drasek> BUgger that. I should be leader of you!
<DeathStar> <Darien> Whatever.
<Chad`Winters> Well she can't look to Megumi for that.
* Drasek crosses his arms. "How much longer till we get home?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well--
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> Location: L.A.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien has gone into his apartment since returning.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands in the lobby, quietly brooding.
<Drasek> Git avoided me. But don't think i'll forget he stole my playboy. *he vows, getting a beer*
* Angela stands on the roof, practicing.
* Megumi peers at the group, arms crossed. 1"...I was left again."
* Megumi sulks.
<Chad`Winters> You passed out again. 6He sits on a table ege.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: edge
<Megumi> Miss Bennet should keep her narcotics away from me.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien finishes washing the blonde dye out of his hair, rubbing his face with a towel. He tosses the towel down, and pulls an EarthGov communicator out of his pocket, eyeing. Reaching up, he shifts a tile and hides it up in the ceiling, then shifts the tile back. Eyeing himself in the mirror, he turns and moves out
<Megumi> I have enough trouble with fatigue.
<Chad`Winters> Always shifting the blame onto someone else. 6He rolls his eyes
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis doesn't add much in the way of conversation.
* Drasek reaches out a beer towards Erevis.
* Angela shifts and swings, her motions fluid, apparently having chosen a new sword style of late.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes the beer. "No thank you."
<Drasek> But I went out of my way to get it out of the fridge. *he notes, glancing at the walk to the fridge*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps back into the lobby, sporting his traditional black hair. "So, I guess I owe you all a dinner for saving my life."
* Ariel looks to Darien, "Is that how it works now?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Of course. I rate your meal based on how well you save me.
* Chad`Winters eyes Darien with his black hair back. 1"Your porno star look?
* Angela finishes her movement and sheathes her sword, smling a bit before heading back downstairs.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Eh. *waves his hand* No sense in having it if they know what I look like now, right?
* Drasek has to do a double take, eyeing Darien. He sighs at his hair, then look at Erevis. "Can't say I didn't offer." He nods to her and moves over to sit down.
* Ariel ponders, "...same penalty for truth or dare, and for needing to get saved from military HQ. Well... that seems unbalanced."
<Chad`Winters> I suppose. 6He leans back, crossing his arms.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'll buy you that dessert you like.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Why would I say something you did not do?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien seems to be in a good mood, despite being captured for 3 days.
<Ariel> "Well, that seems like a fair trade then."
* Drasek pauses and glances back at her. "Well...I...you're confusing, you know that?"
* Angela joins the others, "So what's..." *she stares at Darien*
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, we'll let the heat die down tonight, but we'll go out tomorrow. Until then, I will cook you a meal here. 6* He glances over his shoulder at Angela.
* Angela blinks and smiles, giving him a thumbs up.
<Megumi> How does heat die?
<Megumi> It is cold.
* Megumi squints in her lack of clothes.
<DeathStar> <Darien> .... 6* He sighs at Megumi and heads for Ariel's room to get started.
<Ariel> "...you need to dress more warmly if it's cold, Megumi."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You realize we took the tree down over a month ago, right?
<Megumi> I am dressing in all I have.
* Megumi eyes Zephyr. 1"Yes, I realize that, but it does not retract the holes and tears from jamming a tree through them."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Psch. There's no holes.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr crosses her arms stubbornly.
<Megumi> There are no kimonos, so of course not.
* Angela looks over at Megumi and shakes her head.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> What-ever. I think you run around naked for attention.
<Megumi> What do you do for attention?
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hands her the leather coat . "But here, we're about the same size."
* Ariel nods, and eyes Megumi. "Alright. Maybe you can borrow some for now. What are your sizes?"
* Megumi headtilts. 1"...Where do you get this?"
* Drasek widens his eyes, staring. "YOU-"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Do you want it or not?
Session Close: Thu Dec 06 00:00:00 2007
Session Start: Thu Dec 06 00:00:00 2007
Session Ident: #erevis
* Megumi takes it slowly. 1"Zephyr, you do not like what I call you. Is there something you would prefer?"
* Chad`Winters stares off into space, his eyes seeming distant
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> My name.
<Megumi> I thought it would make you happy if it were the same as Dearest Ariel. It seems not.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr eyes Megumi's boobs, then heads for her room. "You should fit into my shirts, too."
* Drasek narrows his eyes. "That wasn't cool, bit." He hmphs.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands beside Chad Winters. "You are disturbed?"
* Megumi turns her head slowly and peers at Drasek, wondering, then follows Zephyr.
<Megumi> ...Your name alone? You do not like honorifics?
<Angela> "She doesn't."
* Chad`Winters eyes go back to normal and he looks up at Erevis. 1"Hmmm?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Your mind was not here.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I am what I am, Meg.
<Chad`Winters> Yeah. 6He waves his hands about. 1"Something on my mind."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I can tell.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hands over old shirts and pants to Megumi she doesn't like
<Chad`Winters> Why? 6He looks at her.
* Drasek sits there, slowly drinking his beer in silence.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Because you attain this look. 6* She mimics it.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips at Drasek
* Drasek picks it up and looks for the battery.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog bites Drasek
* Chad`Winters tilts his head slightly. 1"Uh yeah...Something seem's off and I can't figure out what."
* Megumi toes at the ground. 1"...I know you are, Zephyr. Beloved Erevis did not seem attuned to it either, however, it is a part of my thoughts. If it pleases you most to remain the same as others, then I will not press it any longer." 6Gazes at the clothes.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I feel the same. Perhaps, with time, we will understand why.
* Angela watches the two, having been following.
* Drasek pauses, and narrows his eyes at it. "Let go mutt. Or I will destroy you."
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog wags it's tail.
* Ariel heads to her room a moment to get something taken care of.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien is in Ariel's room, with a large knife. He turns to face Ariel.
* Chad`Winters groans. 1"I'll probably have to reorganize the room to make sure it's not that."
* Drasek pries his hand loose from the dog, still eyeing it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Your brain is inusual.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog drops to the floor.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Good. Here. TAke these.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shoves them into Megumi's hands.
<Drasek> Chad. Can I break this thing? *he motions at the robo-dog*
<Chad`Winters> We all have our quirks, mine just happens to be time consuming. 6He looks at Drasek. 1"Do you want to make a child cry?"
<Drasek> Would I have to hear here cry?
<Drasek> NRP: her*
<Chad`Winters> Do you want to make a child who is smarter than you, cry?
* Megumi takes the clothing and studies it, a moment set aside to gaze back at Angela curiously and wonder why she is stalking them.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr crosses her arms. "You can go now."
<Drasek> She's smarter than almost everyone here, mate.
* Angela appears to more of less be standing as Zeph's guard.
<Chad`Winters> Right, so do you want to go up against that?
<Drasek> I could lie. Tell her Megumi did it.
* Megumi turns back to Zephyr and nods slowly. 1"I will go before your guardian raises issues."
<Megumi> Thank you, Zephyr.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Eh.
* Megumi nods her head and turns, wandering out.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If you lie on Megumi Zhenmei, I will hurt you. 6* She notes to Drasek
<Chad`Winters> I'd tell her the truth tho.
<Drasek> She's used to her lying to you, mate. Wait. Too soon?
<Drasek> NRP You lying to her.
* Angela watches her go. "You're too nice for your own good Zeph."
<Chad`Winters> NRP: no, no. I like the first one better.
<Drasek> NRP: LOL
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I know. It's a burden, really.
* Chad`Winters glances over at Erevis. 1"I hope he's not the poster child for the Progenitor race."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm.
<Drasek> Oh that hurts, mate. *he holds his chest*
<Angela> "So... shall we join Darien and Ariel for some dinner?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I think the fact he's in there it's meant to be alone time
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *peers at her* Unless you WANT to wreck it.
* Angela giggles, "Nah, just seeing if you wanted to."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Uh huh
<Chad`Winters> Progenitor's feel pain?
* Angela looks over at her, tilting her head. "What?"
* Megumi goes to Erevis' room to don what clothing she was given and returns to the lobby.
<Drasek> You could punch me in the face, but then I might have to punch back.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I don't know. I'm beginning to wonder if Chad might be right about you and Darien.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stays out of the men's conversation.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes Megumi wearing a bunny shirt and jeans.
<Chad`Winters> I'd hate to get you on me. 6He eyes his finger nails.
<Angela> "I told you before Zeph."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Well, yeah, I know how you feel, but now it seems like you might actually be trying to steal him from Ariel.
* Megumi moves over and hugs around Erevis' waist, peering at the others.
<Angela> "...Wha?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I don't know. *shrugs* I'll go see what Aya's doing
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr skips out
<Drasek> Oh that was clever. You deserve a treat for that one. *he stands up and shifts the holo-vid to the right 6 inches, then sits down*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis puts an arm around Megumi.
* Angela blinks and follows after her,
<Angela> "Wait... whatcha mean?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Nothin'.
<Angela> "Alright... I guess."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr knocks on Chad's door and moves in to talk to Aya.
* Drasek smiles, since he broke Chad, he then glances at Erevis and Megumi. "Room for a third in that hug?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> .... Why do you require a hug?
<Drasek> No one ever hugs me. *he frowns*
<Chad`Winters> I'd hate to get you on me. 6He eyes his finger nails.
* Angela follows in after her.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ........
<Chad`Winters> NRP: *pauses, eyeing something*
<Drasek> NRP: LOL!!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Very well. You may hug us.
<Chad`Winters> <NRP: Ignore that.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: NO IT'S GONE!
* Megumi peers up at Erevis skeptically, then glances at Drasek.
* Drasek smiles. "You just made my day." He steps over and hugs them both in one big hug. "I love you guys."
<DeathStar> 6* Aya is reading a history book
<Megumi> I see.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stares at Drasek. "You love us?" 6* She tilts her head.
* Megumi squints at Drasek. 1I love Erevis."
<DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr flops down next to Aya, peering at the ceiling.
* Chad`Winters picks some dirt from under a finger nail and he stands up.
* Drasek steps back, dusting his coat off. "I uh. Didn't say that."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> So you take back what you said.
<Megumi> No, you did not say 'that,' you said 'I love you guys.'
* Angela smiles a bit at the little avid reader, then looks around Casa de Chad.
* Drasek reaches out and flicks Megumi's nose. Then eyes Erevis. "You're just going crazy."
* Megumi peers up at Erevis. 1"I would prefer he does not. If he does, then he has called us guys."
* Megumi recoils from Drasek, blinking in confusion.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns at Drasek, like she's about to hurt him
<Chad`Winters> 6It's Chad's apartment, things are organized and in their places. Some stuff being organized alphabetically and others by the dewey decimal system. A work bench is off on the far side of the living room with a tact suit and tools on it
* Drasek tilts his head watching Erevis. "Well. I might love being around you guys. We get into a nice amount of fights. But, I wouldn't admit to it. That's just dumb."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You hurt Megumi Zhenmei's nose.
<Drasek> Only because she said somethign stupid. I read that it's a neat way to control pets.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis flicks Drasek in the nose with enough force to hurt
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I will keep that in mind.
<Angela> "Learning lots Aya?"
* Drasek slides his hand up to his nose, narrowing his eyes. "Don't make me kick your ass, luv."
<DeathStar> <Aya> Uh huh
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You could not 'kick my ass', even if you attempted to do so.
<Drasek> If I recall correctly, I kicked your ass once before. You wanna go for round two?
<Chad`Winters> If I recall, she laid you flat with one punch. 6He looks up.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Very well.
<Angela> "Well keep it up then." *she smiles and looks to Zeph*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis shifts Megumi away from her
<Drasek> You weren't even there you ponce. *he says to Chad, sliding back, pulling his coat off*
<Chad`Winters> If you two are gonna have a pissing contest, do it on the 3rd floor.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lifts her hands up, balling them into fists.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips.
* Drasek pulls his shirt off now.
<Megumi> ...Please stop, you two.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pauses, glancing at Megumi.
* Megumi squints. 1"Asmodeus does not need help from within picking us off."
* Drasek arches a brow, glancing at Megumi. "But fighting is a healthy sport to keep us in prime condition."
* Chad`Winters pushes off the table and moves off to his apartment.
<Megumi> Not if it is in the intention to harm one another.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Since Megumi does not wish me to fight, I will not
<Angela> "Well... if Ariel and Darien are gonna eat, why don't we?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns her back to Drasek
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'm hanging out with Aya.
* Drasek points with a finger. "Bang. You're dead luv."
<Megumi> So are you, Mister Drasek.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am quite alive.
<Angela> "I could cook for you two."
* Chad`Winters steps into his apartment and stops abruptly eyeing Angela. He leans back and looks at the Apartment Room number.
<Drasek> Had my finger been a gun. You would have died. It's that simple. *he pulls his shirt back on*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Unlikely.
<Megumi> Had your finger been a gun, I would have removed it. It is not wise to harm one's ally in front of their very eyes.
* Angela sees the door open and looks at Chad, then motions with her head back to Aya and Zeph.
* Chad`Winters looks around, to see if someone just didnt' swap room numbers.
* Drasek scoffs. "Removed it. How, by falling asleep and falling into the path of the shot?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis seems vaguely disappointed at not fighting Drasek, but she hides it behind silence.
* Megumi opens her eyes slowly and stares coldly at Drasek with the sullen amber, but says nothing.
* Angela is passing him when he moves his head back, stepping out quietly.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You ran off Angela.
* Chad`Winters looks back in at Zephyr, stepping in now. 1"Sorry?"
* Drasek smiles widely. "We'll fight some other time, Revi. Maybe when the little one falls asleep." He shifts his coat back on.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *motions*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> She fled.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis crosses her arms. "You will show her more respect."
<Megumi> I require much sleep for several reasons, Mister Drasek. Unlike you, this body of mine is not a shell, and as unfortunate as it is how frail it has become.
* Angela walks to her room and steps inside.
* Megumi closes her eyes again. 1"My powers are not based of my body's physical nature."
* Drasek shrugs, eyeing Erevis. "You gonna make me?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If I must.
<Megumi> If I require respect of Mister Drasek, I will request it of my own volition.
<Drasek> Oooh. Seems like little Megumi doesn't want you protecting her, Revi.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She walks off for the third floor
* Megumi turns away slightly, crossing her own arms. 1"That has nothing to do with it."
<Chad`Winters> Right. 6He moves in, not shutting the door. 1"Are you disapointed in me?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *shrugs* You two don't get along. Nothing I can do about that.
* Angela places her sword on a rack and looks out a window quietly.
<Megumi> The way I see this is that Beloved Erevis, Dearest Ariel, Zephyr, Little Aya and Little Siawase, being my family, are my only concerns."
* Megumi tilts her head toward Drasek. 1"Although we may not be rivals any longer, your safety is not my concern if you have no respect for me. Maybe there will come a time, or perhaps not, when you are not able to help yourself, but I will not be required to assist you if there is no concern in return."
<Chad`Winters> Too much past I guess. 6He moves over and opens his fridge. 1"Thirsty?"
<Megumi> I am not the knight that Dearest Ariel is.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Not really.
* Drasek laughs.
* Angela steps into her room and sits down on her bed, pulling a small box out form under it.
<Drasek> Go run along. *he motions*
<Chad`Winters> Aya? 6He calls out.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya is too involved in history to answer.
* Megumi peers at Drasek for a moment, half-closed eyes straining. 1"It must be sad to be lonely."
<Chad`Winters> Right. 6He pulls out a bottle of juice and a bottle of water. He moves over and sets the juice bottle down on Aya's table.
<Drasek> I wouldn't know.
* Megumi turns and slowly walks for the staircase, giving a slight turn toward the voices she can hear, but choosing not to listen. 1"I suppose you would not, which is even more sorrowful."
* Angela pulls out a small, ragged dragon stuffie, looking at it, staring blankly.
<Chad`Winters> Do you think I'm being unfair? 6He glances at Zephyr now.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You really care what I think about how you treat Angela?
<Chad`Winters> I asked. 6He moves over and leans against the kitchen table.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Yeah, I do. 6* Shrugs. "You can be a real bastard to her sometimes, while other people you cut breaks."
* Drasek pulls his arms behind his head. Alone now.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips.
* Angela lays back, holding it in her hand, sighing.
* Chad`Winters studies Zephyr than nods. 1"I can't deny that."
* Drasek groans. And stands, moving off for his room.
* Megumi heads for the likeliest place, the third floor and studies the different rooms.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> But hey, like I said, it's between you two.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog looks sad.
<DeathStar> -END-

Session Ident: #erevis
* Logging #erevis to 'logs\EsperNet\#erevis.20071207.log'
<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-588.2.4
<DeathStar> Location: L.A>
<DeathStar> 6* And so, Angela, bored out of her mind, has managed to kidnap Megumi in a whacky, yet fun loving adventure.
* Angela looks at Megumi. Still wondering why or how she ever came to think about doing this.
<Angela> "So yes... this is a lingere store..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Why am I here again? For my credit card?
<Angela> "And your expertise."
* Megumi turns and stares at the two blankly, being just as clueful to the matter. She retains a pair of jeans and a bunny t-shirt, apparently.
<DeathStar> <Darien> And why would I want to see Megumi in lingere?
<Megumi> Is this such a good idea when we are... needing to remain out of sight?
* Angela eyes the bunny t-shirt, closing her own jacket. She look about the store. "I'm shopping too."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh, right.
* Megumi squints slightly. 1"I do not understand humans."
* Angela looks over some skimpier silks, looking at Megumi, "If you hope to enjoy what you have you need to go to every means to experience life Meg."
<DeathStar> <Darien> And I don't understand Famfrits, but what is this time?
* Megumi dons her ear muffs. Malls are annoying.
* Angela selects something with frills, it doesn't appears to be for casual wear, holding it in front of Meg. "Mmm... try these out. Do you know Ere's measurements?"
<Megumi> As I said, we are supposed to remain unseen. 'Shopping' seems to contradict this essence, Mister Starr.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't worry about it.
* Angela looks at Meg.
* Megumi is walking around blind half the time, of course.
<Megumi> Beloved Erevis' measurements? ...Of what?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs and pulls shades out of his pocket, putting it over Megumi's eyes.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't make me regret taking you out.
<Angela> "Her body."
* Megumi opens her eyes slowly and blinks a few times to adjust, then peers up at Angela. 1"...Since I do not know why one would need such things in daily life, we will assume no. Is this acceptable?"
* Megumi studies the garment she was presented unknowingly.
<Angela> "Eh, I remember it enough to guess."
* Megumi gazes back to Angela suddenly.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien quirks a brow at Angela. "You remember Erevis' measurements that well?"
* Angela rifles through some things, apparently not having thought about that line too much. "Mmm? I was trained in fashion, i'm supposed to be able to guess such things and I've had a better look at her body then most ever even think about."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Wow. I guess you're one up on some people in this group.
<Megumi> The people around us frequently think about it.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't be jealous, squirt. You'll see the goods one day.
* Megumi frowns and crosses her arms. 1"Goods?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Nevermind.
* Angela giggles
* Angela holds up an amazingly brief set, holding it in front of herself, "What do you think Darien?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Not bad.
* Megumi turns slowly and eyes Darien. 1"...Have you... seen the 'goods?'"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't kiss and tell.
* Angela smiles softly and sets it aside to try out soon. "Oh! I need a new swim suit, you should find one you like Meg."
<Megumi> ...Swim suit?
<Angela> "Yes, swim suit, what you wear when you go swimming! I prefer bikinis myself."
<Megumi> Bikinis...
* Megumi shakes her head. 1"Why did you need sizes of Erevis' body?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> You want to buy her clothes that fit.
<Megumi> ...We are buying Beloved Erevis clothes?
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's just creepy.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Anyway, yes, you buy clothes for your significant other, especially things you'd like to see them in.
* Megumi squints at Darien. 1"What, Mister Starr?"
<Angela> "It's a way of telling your loved one that you like how they look, and want to mate with them."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien peers at Angela.
* Megumi turns and glares at Angela. 1"You wish to mate with Beloved Erevis?"
* Angela looks at him and smiles. "In words she'll understand, Mr. Diplomat."
<Angela> "No, you do."
<Angela> "We're helping you get there."
<Megumi> Me? I do not have any money left after Little Aya and Zephyr's presents.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm buying, don't worry.
<Angela> "That's why we brought the man."
* Angela giggles a bit more and looks through a pile of panties.
* Megumi turns again and eyes Darien. "...The man; Mister Starr."
<DeathStar> <Darien> That's me.
* Megumi turns back to Angela. 1"No matter how I look at it, he seems out of place in a 'women's department store.' Especially in a section for their undergarments."
<Megumi> However, to each their own.
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, what, you just want me to pay without getting to see?
* Angela nods a bit, "A good consumer always sees the final product first... I think I'll go try some of these on."
<Megumi> I see. Miss Bennet does have lucrative mating habits.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You should buy her a Santa outfit to wear.
<Megumi> Beloved Erevis is not a fat man."
<DeathStar> <Darien> One day we'll teach you
<Angela> "He means a skimpy one!"
<Megumi> Teach me what?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien crosses his arms. "Okay, Megumi, what sort of outfit would you like to see Erevis in?"
<Megumi> Whatever she wishes to wear. ...You mean what is aesthetically pleasing, correct?
<DeathStar> <Darien> For you, yes.
* Megumi squints. 1"Most of the time I do not see, so it does not typically bother me."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sighs. "Why do blind people always get hot chicks?"
<Megumi> However, she does need to wear a skirt one day. I feel accosted she dismisses them as unfunctional before trying.
<DeathStar> <Darien> There you go. Lets buy her a skirt. Anything else you'd like to see her in?
* Megumi hrmphs. 1"Mobility is not an issue in a skirt."
* Angela steps out in a red bikini, walking over, "How's this?"
<Megumi> Red.
* Megumi nods.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien rubs his forehead at Megumi, then looks at Angela. "Not bad."
* Angela poses cutely, smiling, "Really? Could I do better?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Could try a black bikini.
<Angela> "Ooo! Good idea." *she walks over and selects one, possibly more brief then the one she has on, which is already quite revealing, she heads back into the dressing room*
<Megumi> Miss Bennet's colours would likely be more complimented by something in greens or white.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Black will go, trust me.
* Megumi turns slightly. 1"You like harsher bandwidths."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Anyway, *Waves his hand at Megumi* The purpose of this is to buy yourself clothes that you think looks cute on you, and clothes for Erevis that you would like to see her in. That's the point of shopping."
<Megumi> I see.
<DeathStar> <Darien> No go forth, Chibi, and select clothes.
<Megumi> I was pleased with the kimonos Beloved Erevis bought me. However, they were used for floral planting.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Creeeeepy.
<Megumi> What, Mister Starr?
* Angela comes back out in the black bikini, smiling a little, "Soooo?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Anyway, then we'll see if we can find a Japanese store.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods. "I like it." 6* He nods. "What say you, Megumi?"
<Megumi> It looks cold.
<DeathStar> <Darien> *sighs*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm beginning to see why she has nothing to wear.
<Megumi> I am wearing clothes.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Thank God she can't breed.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien crosses his arms, giving a slightly annoyed look
<Megumi> ...I can.
* Angela smiles and heads back into the dressing room. "Well at least she's pure for Ere."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You'd need a man to breed with kiddo.
<Megumi> It does not change the fact that I can.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Mmm.
<Megumi> ...You said that humans use this for the purpose of mating, correct?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Angela did.
* Megumi nods slowly. 1"Then setting that Beloved Erevis and I are neither human... What if we already have?"
* Angela comes back out in her normal clothes, pouting, "You're supposed to try stuff on Meg."
<Megumi> To what purpose is this?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yeah, right. Anyway, I think this is the last time we try to hang out with Megumi.
<Angela> "To wear nice things for your sweetheart."
* Megumi shifts her eyes to Angela and blinks. 1"Oh. What should I try?"
* Angela sighs and nods to Darien.
<Angela> "Try out some of the bed wear."
* Angela points to a section for Meg to try.
* Megumi gazes out amongst the cloth and stares narrowly. 1"...Bed... wear.."
Session Close: Sat Dec 08 00:00:00 2007
Session Start: Sat Dec 08 00:00:00 2007
Session Ident: #erevis
<DeathStar> 6* Darien puts a hand to his head. "Jesus, now what?"
* Megumi moves over to the section and studies things without a single movement.
* Megumi picks up two garments and moves back to the two. 1"...Now what?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien peers at what sort of garments she selected.
<Angela> "Try them on."
* Megumi seems to be holding a chemisse and a camisole, each with their matching bottoms. Seems she gravitated toward things with ties at the sides and intricate weaving patterns with lace. Probably expensive. She peers at Angela, looks toward the changing rooms and at least seems to get that much.
* Megumi wanders into the booths, then after a while of silence. 1"Now what?"
<Angela> "Come out and show us kiddo."
* Megumi takes a while longer, then ambles out with a blank expression. She chose the chemise to try, though decorative a bit bland. Probably missing the stockings or such that go with it. It's violet which she seems to be attracted to, the other outfit a purplish blue, both in light pastels.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien studies Megumi, rubbing his chin
* Megumi probably looks a -bit- silly with sunglasses and earmuffs added to the ensemble. 1"Is this acceptable?"
<Angela> "Cute."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Seems to be missing something. Angela, help her out
* Megumi squints. 1"...You think so?"
<Angela> "Something sheer, and something sweet."
* Megumi tilts her head to the side. 1"...Huh?"
<Megumi> What are you talking about, Miss Bennet? Sweet? Are you hungry?
<Angela> "Sweet, innocent."
* Megumi frowns, eyes shut in irritance, in a complete loss to the ideas presented.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien chuckles.
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'm not sure, either, Megumi.
<Megumi> Good. I feel a bit better knowing I still understand some common.
* Angela shakes her head, handing her a sheer pair of panties sized to fit her and a satin flower.
* Megumi stares at them. 1"...What is wrong with the undergarments I am wearing?"
<Megumi> ...Is this flower edible?
<DeathStar> 6* Darien laughs.
<Angela> "Maybe."
* Megumi hands the flower back to Angela. 1"I am not hungry."
* Angela just shakes her head and puts it back.
<Megumi> Miss Bennet, if you wish to bestow human traits upon me, I must ask that you thoroughly explain or demonstrate.
* Megumi squints. 1"...Just handing me things, I do not know what you expect of me."
<Megumi> Not to mention...
* Megumi gazes past her a bit irritated. 1"That your usual stance with me leads me to believe you might have ulterior motives to inviting me anywhere."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ulterior?
<Megumi> Miss Bennet seems to favor triggering my psyche errors or encouraging Zephyr to not like me. This is my opinion.
<DeathStar> <Darien> *looks at Angela*
<Megumi> I do not believe she wishes to mate with me, unlike you, at least.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien coughs.
* Angela scratches her head.
<Megumi> Is this a cause for insecurity, Mister Starr?
<Angela> "Why would I do that?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> *waves his hand, letting Angela talk*
* Megumi peers at Angela skeptically. 1"I do not know. Why you have done so in the past is equally senseless to me-- But then, humans do have strange habits."
<Angela> "I've never purposely attempted anything of the sort Megumi, that was your own doing."
<Megumi> What was my own doing?
<Angela> "All of your mistakes/"
<Megumi> I am sure all of my mistakes are my own doing, but that does not clarify what it is you are talking to.
* Angela looks through a few more piles. "...Talking to?"
* Megumi squints. 1"Are you sure you are a scientist? You seem too indefinitely and obscure."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien tilts his head between the two.
<Angela> "Are you sure you really speak Basic?"
* Megumi chooses to say nothing, peering at Darien now.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien seems to be studying some clothing.
<Megumi> Since the object of this trip is clothing. You said this was missing something, Mister Starr. What was it?
<DeathStar> <Darien> *motions at the item Angela handed her besides the flower* I guess that.
<Megumi> It is a set that requires two bottoms pieces?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Uh...*shrugs* I don't know.
<Megumi> ...It makes sense why you merely admire them rather than decide on them.
* Megumi sighs. 1"One would have thought that with the articles Little Aya said came from your room that you would know much more of these things."
* Angela smacks her forehead.
<Angela> "Darien... you didn't leave that stuff out..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> What stuff?
<Angela> "That magazine?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Uh....I had a magazine? 6* Goes blank.
<Angela> "The one we used to find you."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't know what you're talking about.
<Angela> "Good."
* Angela smiles.
* Megumi walks over while they're discussing the magazine and takes up the flower, a lace headdress, choker, stockings, all of the same light lavender colour and then returns to grab Angela's side, yanking her toward the dressing room.
* Angela blinks and gets dragged along, "Waaaaiiii?"
<Megumi> Left to your own devices, I fear we would never leave. Show me how to wear these, Miss Bennet.
* Megumi shuts the door.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien stares at the door.
* Angela blinks and goes into stylist mode, helping Meg get dressed in the getup.
<Megumi> ...I see, so that is... Oh.
<DeathStar> <Darien> *whistles*
<Angela> "Yes... hold still there..."
<Megumi> ..B-be careful..!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien coughs, nodding to random NPCs.
<Megumi> Are you -sure- you have done this before? It feels strange.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the room again
<Megumi> Surely that does not go there.
<Angela> "S-Stop wiggling so much..."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Oh boy...
<Angela> "Wait, what are you doing now?"
<Megumi> Escaping! I cannot take it anymore!
<Angela> How does that involve what you're doing to my chest?!
<Megumi> I did not ask you to place it in my face. I for one require breathing.
<Angela> H-Hey stop moving around so much! Eeep!
<DeathStar> 6* Darien tilts his head back
<Megumi> All the way up my legs and you expect me not to move? It tickles.
<Angela> Th-tHose are sensitive!
* Megumi shoves the door back open and stumbles away, heaving. Colour in her face suggesting some sort of olympic event. After a moment she trains her vision on her legs, however. 1"...Why do they require so much effort to put on?"
<Angela> "BEcause you're incapable of holding still..."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien peers at Megumi.
* Angela leans out, her shirt half undone, somehow her bra loosened off.
<DeathStar> <Darien> What..were you two...doing?
* Megumi sighs, and reaches up to adjust the headdress with the flower slipped within it, and then feels the need to touch the ends of the choker's ties. 1"...I was learning how to place stockings on my legs."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Uh...huh.
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, are you getting Erevis an outfit like that, or is that one for you?
* Angela sighs, fixing herself slowly. "I think it's for both of them... it's a sport in itself to get on."
<DeathStar> <Darien> It does seem complicated. I like things I can yank off easily.
* Megumi holds up the other set that's white with blue frosted colouring. 1"...I intended this one for Beloved Erevis since you were insisting."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien taps his chin. "Interesting. Okay."
* Megumi lets it unfurl a bit enough that the sheer fabric is at least apparent to have snowflake embroidery. 1"She is fond of snow."
<Angela> "Perosnally I like it simple too... though I'm not looking at any bedtime oppurtunities for a long while."
<Megumi> Really? Others' opinions and your history seem to state a different trend.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Hmm
* Megumi squints, scratching at her cheek. 1"I would have thought your habits around Mister Starr would surely suggest..." 6Trails off.
* Angela glares at Meg.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pretends to be looking at somethinge lse.
* Megumi doesn't know about the glare since she shut her eyes.
<Megumi> Are we finished?
<DeathStar> <Darien> You don't feel like buying anymore under garments?
<Angela> "I think we are." *she says a bit coldly, bucnhing together what she's selected*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses, then holds out his gil to them. "I'll go look around for a japanese shop.'
* Megumi seems to consider, eyeing Darien with one open. 1"How many is reasonable?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, wearing the same clothes every day is typically frowned on.
<DeathStar> <Darien> So people stock up to cycle.
* Angela takes the gil, smiling to Darien, before giving a stink eye to Meg and walking over to pay.
<Megumi> I see. I realize that wearing something everyday is hygienically difficulty. I have had to wash many things before Beloved Erevis awakens.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Then pick out a week's worth.
* Megumi folds her hands before her and bows partly to Darien, then returns to sections, apparently browsing a bit easier with an example to follow.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien steps over to Angela while Megumi looks around
<DeathStar> <Darien> I think you and Megumi are forming unique bonds.
* Angela takes her time with the bag of things, avoiding looking at him. "How?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> You're like siblings!
<Angela> "S-Siblings?"
* Megumi picks up a few things-- Equally decorated and elaborate. Her bill will probably be heavy.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You two act like it.
<Angela> "If it's another Chad Winters in my life, not sure I want it."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien takes the items, playing with gil.
* Megumi returns with an exact total of seven different complete sets. For her, and Erevis. Totalling a rather impressive pile of lingirie and accessory items.
<Megumi> I am finished.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien just motions for it to be added.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Alright, Japanese store it is.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien lets Megumi carry her own bags.
<Megumi> I would appreciate it if I am not compared to Mister Winters.
* Megumi gathers up the bags, since they're light, but definitely has trouble seeing around them since she has to carry them on top of one another to manage.
* Angela glares at Meg for listening in.
<Megumi> Mister Winters only cares about two people. I at least have three and the capacity for more.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You don't care about me? 6* He sounds hurt.
* Megumi peers around the boxes and blinks. 1"Moreso than Mister Drasek or Mister Winters."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Ouch.
<Angela> "I meant in the tense of carelessly making fun of me."
<Megumi> I will admit that you having announced your plans to end my life have burdened the amount some.
* Angela says bitterly, looking anywhere but at Meg.
* Megumi eyes Angela over her shoulder. 1"...Making fun.. of?"
<Angela> "Pointing out things that Sera did, making comments about things you barely understand."
<Megumi> Who is Sera?
* Angela shakes her head. "This is exactly what I mean."
* Megumi squints. 1"I only know what I have heard from others and things you told me since you met me."
<Megumi> I do not know what you mean by 'making fun,' however if you are referring to your affections toward Mister Starr, that was obvious from your visits to him in captivity.
* Angela taps her head. "Two sets of memories, made into one person. A whole person. I refer to anything that happened before that date, the person who was the Dragoon Omega as Seraphna."
<Megumi> I see.
* Megumi sets the boxes down since they aren't moving and taps her own head.
* Angela blinks and looks at her, "Well yeah, I care about Darien."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks on toward the Japanese store.
<Megumi> I lack many memories before I was stranded on Kilek, I have a psyche glitch that causes me to lose contact with humanity, and I apparently also have strange affects to what you refer to as 'catnip.' However, I am still the same person, whether these memories are seperated or not."
<Megumi> It is not my intent to slight you that makes me speak of you in terms so much as the fact that I do not see a difference between the different parts of the same person.
* Megumi picks up the boxes and slowly moves after Darien, taking breaks to figure out where he is around the tower.
<Megumi> I have always been treated as the same 'Megumi Zhenmei' regardless of which influence I fell under.
* Angela tilts her head at him. "Really, so, do you see me sleeping around often?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien enters a Japanese clothing store.
* Angela never aid anything about halting movement. :P
<Megumi> NRP: Right, never said anything about movement at all was the point!
* Megumi sets the boxes from the previous place down near the counter since they're cumbersome to carry around. 1"I see you sleeping on occasion, Miss Bennet."
<Angela> "I mean with men. As in mating."
* Megumi has at least something to go off of in this kind of place and picks out a couple yukatas and kimonos to replace the ones she lost-- more or less the same colours.
<Megumi> No, I do not. I also fail to see your point? Do you usually mate with men where someone like myself could see?
* Angela rubs her face, "You are entirely frustrating to talk to."
<Megumi> I understand. This is not the first time I have heard this.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes outfits, never having been one to dress up himself.
* Angela swears in Tsiv.
<Megumi> What I know is that you claim to have two sets of memories. For some reason you seem to believe they are individually responsible, yet I only see one person before me.
<Megumi> You did not seem forgiving about the actions I commit under my manifest, which I do not consciously control, so why should I consider your situation any different when it is the example you have given me?
<Angela> "More I believe the past is behind me, the person they were each individually was lost in what I've become."
<Megumi> In other words, you believe your situation is special and the past experience should not apply to you.
<Angela> "No, I believe we can change from who we were and grow."
<Megumi> I see. Yet you and others often say I cannot change.
<Angela> "You don't appear to try to."
* Megumi finishes gathering outfits since she knew what she was after and presents them to Darien.
<Angela> "I have to live with my regret for the rest of my life Megumi."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances at them, then hands over the gil to Megumi.
<Megumi> That is no different from anyone else that lives.
* Megumi carries them to the counter to make the exchange.
* Angela rubs her face.
<Angela> "Fine."
* Megumi then heads to put one of the yukatas on, seeing as she never changed back into the jeans and such after the last store.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien wondered where the odd stares were coming from.
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, you two getting along better?
<Angela> "I dunno."
* Megumi exits the dressing room in a mostly white yukata with feather-painted ash-coloured snowflakes on it.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You look lovely, Megumi.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien glances over her.
* Megumi inclines her head toward Darien. 1"Thank you, Mister Starr."
* Megumi peers at Angela. 1"Other than your quips and inconsistencies, I have no problem with you, Miss Bennet."
<Megumi> Originally we seemed to get along fine until you took Zephyr's memories and obligations, as well as the trip to visit Mister Starr, as your own and decided to change opinions. Our personalities do not entirely disagree at a base level.
<Angela> "Angela. Call me Angela."
* Megumi frowns slightly. 1"You as well dislike honorifics?"
<Megumi> Miss Angela.
<Angela> "Ms. Bennet is something a teacher calls me, or a cop."
<Angela> "Just Angela... please."
<DeathStar> <Darien> *chuckles*
<DeathStar> <Darien> I wonder if Beloved Erevis drives Erevis nuts.
<Angela> "She'd be too polite to say anything about it."
<Megumi> I asked her specifically. If she dislikes it, she would be lying or hiding it from me.
* Megumi leans in toward Angela slightly. 1"...If you really took Zephyr's memories as your own, you would know when I grew fond of her. I -was- a teacher."
<DeathStar> <Darien> You two act more like siblings now, you and Zephyr.
<Megumi> I wonder what it is like-- To gain another's memories as your own so quickly.
<Angela> "It's a bit much at times."
* Megumi blinks toward Darien. 1"...Zephyr and myself? Do all Earth siblings banter in such a fashion?"
<Angela> "We make a sport of it."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Most seem to do it.
<Megumi> Zephyr is an exceptionally skilled sibling then.
* Megumi holds her hands behind herself and squints. 1"We must have been quite close for her to perform a 'Dragoon Buster' on me."
<Megumi> Twice.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Maybe she has a girl crush on you
<DeathStar> 6* Darien exits the store, trying to decide if there's any place else to go
* Megumi retrieves her boxes, now having difficulty juggling them in place before her.
<Megumi> Girl crush?
<Angela> "Wow... now the anger she's shown me in the past looks... mild."
<Angela> "Worst she ever did to me is bust my hand and face..."
* Megumi pauses a moment.
<Angela> "Granted, back then such dmaage healed in about 5 minutes."
<Megumi> Zephyr has broken several of my ribs, punctured my shoulders, burned many places of my body, nearly vaporized me two or three times, lacerated several key locations required to move...
* Megumi looks downward, continuing to think.
<DeathStar> <Darien> That Zephyr. A sweetie.
<Angela> "Wow, she either full on loves you or really does hate you."
<DeathStar> <Darien> So, getting Erevis anything for Valentine's Day, Megumi?
<Megumi> Shot me in the stomach several times, the chest once, punched me with gun handles and set off a grenade in my face.
* Megumi glances up blankly. 1"...Hm? What is... 'Valentine's day?'"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien motions for Angela to explain
<Angela> "A celebration of love, a yearly holiday."
* Angela looks away a little, this year looks like a lonely one for her, Marcus hasn't kept in touch.
<Megumi> Celebration of... love? Is this not the act of sex for most humans?
<Angela> "That's lust."
<Megumi> Many seem to pass them hand in hand.
<Angela> "LOve between two people can go much deeper."
<Angela> "Well, lust is often an expression of love."
* Megumi nods slowly. 1"I will accept your experience as wisdom."
<Megumi> What are the practices of 'Valentine's day?'
<DeathStar> <Darien> To be honest, she probably doesn't know about Valentine's Day, and won't care eitehr way.
<Megumi> I beg to differ.
<Megumi> I am often motivated to act on anything I learn of, and Beloved Erevis that is here and now, is aware of most things I will act upon. She likely already knows for sure.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Point.
<Angela> "It's cuter whe you use the japanese affectionates in names."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, people celebrate Valentine's Day in so many ways, it's hard to pick one way.
* Megumi blinks toward Angela. 1"Huh?"
* Megumi eyes Darien. 1"Surely there are basics?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> Some people give the person a gift, and a romantic, candle light dinner.
<DeathStar> <Darien> And then have sex.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Others buy candy.
<Megumi> I see. What if one presents all the things you have mentioned?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Then one is...really doing good?
<Megumi> It would not be hard.
* Megumi nods to nothing in particular.
* Angela sighs softly and crosses her arms.
* Megumi looks around the presents at Angela. 1"Why are you distressed now?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks out of the mall and to the car.
<Angela> "Teenage angst."
* Angela walks along with.
* Megumi frowns slightly, and tags, a bit slower due to apparently carrying a mass greater than herself.
* Megumi sets them down near the car and pants.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien unlocks the trunk for Megumi.
* Megumi sits down on a knee and takes a break, twitching.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You're not...tired are you?
<Megumi> ...I am exhausted, however, it will pass.
<DeathStar> <Darien> You really need to get back in shape.
* Angela puts her bag in as well.
<Angela> "Can I drive?"
<Megumi> ...What do you mean, 'back in shape?'
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yeah, never mind.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien puts her bags into the trunk for her.
* Megumi frowns at Darien, then blinks as he loads things. 1"...Thank you, Mister Starr."
<DeathStar> <Darien> No problem.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien closes the trunk, opening the car door for her.
* Megumi blinks again and enters to rest in the back. 1"Mister Starr, Miss Be--...Miss Angela was requesting to operate the vehicle."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Hm? Oh, sure.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien tosses her the keys.
* Angela smiles a bit with glee, taking them she heads for the driver's side.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien closes the door after Megumi and takes the passenger seat.
* Angela straps herself in and starts up the car, smiling. "I miss my car."
<DeathStar> 6* Darien relaxes, apparantly unphased about his life possibly being in danger.
<Megumi> You have my appreciation for this trip, Mister Starr. I shall present Beloved Erevis' clothing as a gift, make her dinner and a dessert for this 'Valentine's day.'
<DeathStar> <Darien> Sounds good.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Maybe you can actually have sex for once, too
<Megumi> ... I already have, Mister Starr.
* Angela pulls out and drives, doing it surprisingly well.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien coughs, looking over his shoulder.
* Megumi tilts her head curiously at Darien.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Congrats. Was it everything you wanted?
<Megumi> ...I ...wanted?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Sex.
* Megumi blinks a few more times. 1"I can understand why many would wish for it often, yes."
<DeathStar> <Darien> But it wasn't for you?
<Megumi> I do not understand what you are insinuating.
<DeathStar> <Darien> *shrugs* I don't know. You seem to be a little ... flat on it. Some people aren't into it, though.
* Angela keeps on driving, humming a little tune as they get closer to the apartment complex.
* Megumi holds up a hand and coughs lightly. 1"... I do not have words or the countenance to retell what I feel regarding it."
<Megumi> Besides. I do not find it any of your business.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Fair enough
<DeathStar> 6* Darien looks ahead.
* Megumi crosses her arms and pouts out the window.
<Megumi> Mister Starr.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Yes? 6* He glances back.
* Angela stops the car, it sitting outside the apartments where it's usually parked.
<Megumi> From my experience with human males... Having bought this clothing with the intention of Beloved Erevis wearing it-- You will no doubt attempt to visualize her within it, will you not?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Hm. I hadn't, but now you put it in my head.
* Megumi narrows her eyes.
* Angela sits back and smiles a little.
* Megumi chimes. 1"Miss Angela would have looked more complimentary in white."
<DeathStar> <Darien> Don't narrow your eyes at me. You should have known what my mind would do
<DeathStar> <Darien> Nice driving.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods to Angela, getting out of the car. He opens the trunk, getting Megumi's gifts.
* Angela gets out as well, smiling proudly as she heads over to get her own bag with a little bounce in her step.
* Megumi gets out slowly, sighing. She gazes upward to see what the weather's like, shielding her eyes despite the sunglasses.
<DeathStar> 6* A clouded day, but L.A. is reaching it's normal tempatures.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien walks in, leaving the gifts outside Erevis' room.
* Megumi retrieves them and moves them inside the room one by one, wary of Erevis herself.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps out of the bathroom. "Welcome back, Megumi."
* Megumi smiles and nods. 1"I am home, hello, Beloved Erevis."
* Megumi waves one hand to the boxes and holds up a finger. 1"Please do not look into these yet."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Very well. 6* She tilts her head.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers at the gifts.
<Megumi> How is your day?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Routine. And yours?
* Megumi goes to sit on the end of the bed, swinging her feet a bit. Setting Zephyr's hand-me-downs aside, she seems content enough in the violet wear and the snowflake kimono for the moment. 1"Not routine."
* Angela walks with Darien, "So whatcha doing with the rest of your day?"
<DeathStar> 6* Darien considers. "I haven't planned anything."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods her head. "That is a lovely outfit."
* Megumi eyes Erevis curiously. 1"You actually like it?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
* Megumi reaches up and pokes at the flower on the headdress. 1"...Seemed indifferent most of the time, so I was not sure how you would react."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns a little.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see.
<Angela> "Anything with Ariel? Or can I occupy your time with my need for attention and the spotlight in life?"
<DeathStar> <Darien> I don't think Ariel's around right now.
* Megumi studies that expression and squints. 1"What is wrong, Beloved?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is not of importance.
<Megumi> If it is cause for Beloved Erevis' discomfort, it is not unimportant.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis shakes her head. "I am fine.'
* Megumi frowns now.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits beside Megumi on the bed, taking care not to sit on Zephyr's clothing.
<Megumi> I was following advice and trying to wear things 'cute.' It seems to have failed.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. Why has it failed, exactly?
<Angela> "Very well, time to drag you off to spend time with me!"
<DeathStar> <Darien> *waves his hand* Doing what?
* Angela giggles and thinks, "Watching the holo-vid to start, then you can help me make dinner."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I should probably work on my shuttle over watching a HoloVid.
<Angela> "But I'll be all sad and lonely. Possibly falling into a horrible teenage depression and going the wrong way in life, all because you wouldn't keep me company."
* Angela pouts and looks vulnerable.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Uh huh.
* Angela pouts.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Fine. You win.
* Angela giggles and kidnaps Darien away to the Angela Cave, also known as room 102.
<Megumi> It does not seem that Beloved Erevis finds such things 'cute.'
* Megumi crosses her arms and purses her lips. 1"I should have told them to just bestow me with that 'catnip.'"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. You are very cute, Megumi. I do find the outfit very nice. The snowflakes especially.
* Megumi raises her left hand eye and gives a "Yay!6" in response.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien is kidnapped. By a kid.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis goes back to eyeing the gifts.
* Megumi peers at Erevis, then follows her gaze and blinks. Looks back to her.
<Megumi> There is a human holiday in twelve days. We shall open the rest then.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Valentine's Day? 6* She nods her head.
* Megumi nods in agreement.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. 6* She seems focused on eyeing the gifts, perhaps using Progenitor powers to look into them.
* Megumi uncrosses her arms and reaches over, actually groping Erevis, squinting. 1"...So do not dare look before then."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis blinks in surprise, glancing down, then at Megumi. "Very well." 6* She notes quickly.
* Megumi releases!
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head somewhat.
<Megumi> Are you hungry? Did you just awaken?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I have been up a while, though I have not thought about eating yet today.
<Megumi> Then shall I make breakfast?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If you wish to do, I will help.
<DeathStar> -E.D.N-

<DeathStar> Location: L.A>
* Drasek has his feet propped up, drinking a beer as he watches the holovid.
* Angela takes a seat on the couch next to him, yawning loudly.
* Drasek slowly looks over at her, then looks back to the holo-vid.
<Angela> "So what's on Dras?"
<Drasek> Dras? Nifty name, pet. *he glances at her, taking a swig* I'm wasting time till our next battle, of course.
* Angela turns a bit to face him, smiling, "Do you train?"
<Drasek> Why would I?
<Angela> "Keep in shape, top of your game?"
* Kuroichigo has joined #Erevis
* Kit has joined #erevis
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Kit
<Drasek> Shell. *he motions at himself* And after living as long as I have, you don't need to train.
<Angela> "I think I've heard that line before..."
* Angela appears to think about this.
<Angela> "Doesn't matter, he was torn to pieces."
<Drasek> Do you think Mal trained? *he tilts his head to look at her*
<Angela> "Mal...?"
* Drasek taps his chin. "Wind. Your lot called him Wind."
* Dias is now known as Dias[BacardiGirls]
<Angela> "Did he ever stop, is a better question I think."
<Drasek> ...no that question is rubbish.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog chews on one of Drasek's magazines.
* Angela sighs, "You can be boring at times."
* Drasek narrows his eyes at the Robo Dog, then glances at Angela. "Don't feel the need to entertain the likes of you."
<Angela> "Oh the likes of me?"
* Drasek glances back to the holovid. "A ponce like you that thinks they already have all of the answers. Waste of my time."
<Angela> "I don't have the answers... that's why I question everything..."
* Angela sits back, looking away from him.
<Drasek> And then when a person gives you the answer, you refuse to accept it.
<Angela> "Yeah..."
* Angela sighs, "Sorry."
<Drasek> I don't want your apology. *he shifts to eye her* I don't care whether you accept the truth or not. That's your bag, luv.
<Angela> "So what's it light being a progenitor?"
<Angela> *like
<Drasek> What kind of question is that? *he eyes her like she's insane.* Do you just walk up to a black bloke and say, "Hey, mate. What's is like being a negro?"
<Angela> "...What's that?"
<Kuroichigo> Maybe sooner, they're slow
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog eyes the intruder.
<Drasek> You know what a black person looks like, right?
* Angela looks at him. "...A human with black skin? I believe there are some in the fertile crecent."
<Drasek> Yeah..it's great being a Progen. Cept you know...not really being one when you're stuck in a bloody shell.
<Angela> "It'd probably be easier for everyone to talk to you if you didn't refer to it as that so much."
<Drasek> Is what it is. I won't pretend it to be anything other.
<Angela> "It can quite technically still be called a body."
<Drasek> It is my shell for as long as i'm under the effects of this poison.
* Angela sighs, "Look, we're in hiding, did you ever pause to think how alien that term makes you sound?"
<Drasek> You're in hiding. I'm not. *he points* I don't hide.
<Angela> "Tell that to EarthGov while you're still in that shell."
* Angela looks up and down him, as though inspecting. "You know they have a technology to imprison progenitors, right?"
* Drasek scoffs. "They have to restrain the prisoner first and unlike Malervis, I won't go down so easily."
* Angela giggles suddenly.
<Angela> "M-Malervis?"
<Drasek> Funny name, eh?
<Angela> "That's the full name? Malervis? This is like finding out that his name is Eugene or something..."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis, who had come down the stairs, crosses her arms, staring at Angel.
<Drasek> I've said it a dozen times, luv. You should pay more attention. *he takes a sip of his beer*
* Angela blinks and looks up, returning Erevis gaze. "Ummm, hey!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns and moves into her room.
<Drasek> I imagine she hates you a little more now. *he notes in amusement*
<Angela> "...What's her problem?"
* Drasek eyes Angela. "What is her name? And what is Wind's?"
<Angela> "So they sound similar? It fits her."
<Drasek> Just remain oblivious. It fits you.
<Angela> "...No... what did I do?"
<Drasek> I don't know it all. I never actually met either of them back then. But I hear quite a bit. And they were somehow connected one way or another.
<Angela> "I just figured them enemies..."
<Angela> "I should probably at least apologise then."
<Drasek> You have fun with that, then.
* Angela stands up, stretching. "And you should talk more, possibly call people ignorant less."
<Drasek> I call 'em like I see 'em, luv.
* Angela heads towards Ere's room. "We can't all be almighty ancients, after all."
<Drasek> I've met 5 year olds smarter than you. *he calls after her*
<DeathStar> 6* Aya holds up three fingers. "I'm three."
* Angela leans out of the hall, looking at him. "If you weren't all show you'd remember that no one from this universe is much older then that."
* Angela winks and walks down the hall.
<Drasek> 3 year olds! *he corrects, then titls his head and counts. "15 you git."
* Angela is already gone, apparently attempting to avoid calling it like she sees it.
* Angela knocks on Ere's door.
<DeathStar> 6* No answer. But Erevis doesn't seem to be the type to ignore, so she's probably out of ear shot.
* Angela knocks a little harder.
<DeathStar> 6* No answer.
* Angela shrugs and heads back out.
* Angela sits in a side chair, away from him, looking at the holo-vid.
* Drasek glances at Aya. "You reading quatum physics yet?"
<DeathStar> 6* Aya just looks confused.
<Drasek> ...or quantum...something like that. *he tries to remember it*
<DeathStar> 6* Aya sneaks off.
* Angela glares at Dras now.
* Drasek eyes Angela. "You glare any harder and I may just keel over."
<Angela> "You're... a... you're a jerk, you know that?"
* Drasek arches a brow. "I'm a jerk? Because I tell you the truth. That's nifty."
<Angela> "You call me names... and make fun of me for not grasping something just because you're already in the know on it."
<Drasek> If that makes me a jerk, then I'm a jerk. *he shrugs slightly*
* Angela gets up and walks to a window, crossing her arms. "Well I'm sorry I don't understand everything there is to know in the universe, I still barely get people as a whole."
<Drasek> Oh people are easy. *he waves a hand* What don't you get?
<Angela> "Just about everything... behaviors, interactions, grudges... especially grudges."
<Drasek> If I did something to offend you, seriously offend you. Would you just forgive me at the drop of a pin?
<Drasek> Let's say I killed Darien. *he adds*
<Angela> "...I wouldn't let you live long enough for there to be time to think about that."
<Drasek> Really now? You could kill me, then?
<Angela> "I..."
* Angela stops, thinking about that deeply.
<Drasek> And if you couldn't. Would you ever forgive me?
<Angela> "...Do you mean possibility or be able to bring myself to?"
<Drasek> Either.
<Angela> "I know Darien thinks I'd never be able to actually bring myself to... UNder Phaeton I had little reguard for all of these attachments and emotions but..."
* Angela stares out the window.
<Angela> "...Am I... have I really gotten this weak?"
<Drasek> You're a human. And human's kill easily. And they holds grudges for a very long time, sometimes over the dumbest of things.
<Angela> "Not me."
<Angela> "I've tried to."
<Drasek> Then you're clearly broken. *he says with a wave of his hand*
<Angela> "Men have betrayed me, killed those I love, even raped me, and I couldn't kill them over it."
<Drasek> Then the next time I call you idiot. Don't get offended. Because i'm just telling you the truth.
* Angela drops her shoulders a little, slacking off, "Yeah... yeah you are."
<Drasek> Do you know why everyone ignores you? Why everyone never takes your interests into mind?
<Drasek> NRP: why no one ever*
<Angela> "Why?"
<Drasek> Because you let it happen. *he says simply*
* Angela opens her eyes, staring out again. "Yeah... I do... but what am I supposed to do?"
<Drasek> Well I can't exactly tell you that. I know I personally don't trust you because I see how you are with Darien, knowing full and well that he and Ariel are together. Other than that, stop trying to be what you aren't. It's really noticable when you put on this brave all-knowing face.
* Angela stops, narrowing her eyes, "Just how am I with Darien?"
<Drasek> You'd mount him and ride him all the way to happen town, if you could.
<Angela> "...I don't BECAUSE he's with Ariel. I'd never move between them. To me he's just a very good friend, one I feel entirely comforterable with."
<Drasek> If you say so, luv.
<Angela> "You try sharing someone's memories and not feeling close."
<Drasek> As far as i've understood it. This Darien and the one you knew are two completely different people.
<Angela> "RIght, and where do you get that from?"
<Drasek> People talk, luv.
<Angela> "Great source."
<Kit> Megumi "This conversation sounds familiar."
* DeathStar is now known as DS[Gone]
<Drasek> Well when the source says the name, DeathStar. I imagine it's a valid source.
<Angela> "Not entirely."
<Angela> "Tell me, how many people around here have had two of themselves in one body? How many people around here share memories, thoughts, and feelings?"
<Kit> 6Megumi rubs her eyes sleepily, then crosses her arms and stares at the two from near Erevis' door.
* Drasek waves a hand at Megumi, without actually looking at her before staring at Angela. "And yet none of them let it affect them like you do."
* Angela shakes her head, "Poor example at best."
<Drasek> It was your example, luv.
* Angela glares at him, the glare entirely different from before, like another light is behind those eyes.
<Drasek> Yes. Glare. That proves that I'm right.
<Angela> "Only a true idiot takes word of mouth as the strongest fact."
* Drasek laughs. "That shows how little you really know."
<Angela> "No, many people are idiots, even more of them absorbed."
* Drasek holds up one finger. "Granted. But believe me when I say. You're attached to this Darien, whom is completely different from the Darien you were bonded with or whatever. You're attached to this one however, even though he really doesn't even know you. And the only reason he seems to have a relationship with you of any form, is because his mind just remembers that you two were friends.
* Kit is now known as Megumi
* ChanServ sets mode: -o Megumi
<Megumi> I had this conversation with Miss Be--... Miss Angela yesterday, Drasek.
<Drasek> And she clearly didn't listen to you. *he pats the couch beside him so Megumi can sit.*
* Megumi narrows her eyes at Drasek slightly, though that might be an improvement since her's were closed? 1"...Just because an aspect of the person has been changed or removed does not make it a different person."
* Megumi moves over slowly and sits down, flicking the end of her kimono so she rests on it properly. 1"She just might need to repay the effort in kind to make him realize it again."
<Drasek> Technically it does. *he motions* Though you're defending what you're doing with Erevis, by saying she is the same. Though in all reality, she is a different person.
<Angela> "And Darien wasn't completely ever one way or another... one simply took center stage while the other held back."
<Megumi> It was the problem I had with Miss Angela. It does not concern me that her new 'self' is a culimination of two people or whatever it is... She is still the same person and still responsible for those 'selves' she used to be."
<Megumi> However, I believe Miss Angela and I have resolved that matter.
<Angela> "Yes, interesting how it needs to be one way for me whole it can be used to scold me with another."
<Angela> *while
* Megumi squints toward Angela. 1"...Were we not resolved? Perhaps I am mistaken for explaining my thoughts, then."
<Megumi> I never said I approved of Drasek's point of view. To do so, I would become hypocritical to my own standpoint.
<Angela> "No, we are."
* Drasek just drinks his beer, deciding that speaking right now would just be waste of time.
<Megumi> Drasek is a very flawed individual, much like any other living person. As we all carry our regrets, perhaps Drasek's issue is that he does not know what is proper to regret.
<Megumi> Drasek, as I understand, does not understand the worth of affection or bonds between people.
* Drasek sighs. "No. I get it, I just think it's a waste of time."
* Angela looks away. "As long as people feel it's alright holding my life as Serena Cran over my head, I don't see how saying Darien is a different person is somehow an excuse."
<Angela> "And I know he doesn't either."
<Drasek> I never knew you as that other person, so don't include me with people.
<Angela> "Dunno, you seem to base your opinions on me based on what those people think, I think this in turn includes you."
* Drasek laughs.
<Megumi> Drasek thinking such things is a waste of time only furthers my point.
<Drasek> My opinions are from what i've seen, luv. From however long i've been here. Don't think that anyone else has made me believe otherwise.
<Megumi> /me inclines her head slightly and gazes at Drasek.
* Megumi inclines her head slightly and gazes at Drasek. 1"What have you seen of the Progenitors? What is their worth to you?"
<Angela> "Then how can you judge my relation with Darien? I'm not exactly making out with him in corners."
* Drasek shakes his head. "Nevermind. I see things, luv. Even when you think I don't. And I see how you look at him, I see how you move around him. You want him so bad that you can't stand yourself sometimes."
* Drasek just seems like he didn't hear Megumi.
<Megumi> Hrmph. Pathetic.
<Drasek> Glad you finally figured out a little about yourself, Megumi. *he nods, giving her a smile*
* Megumi stares blankly at Drasek. 1"I already knew I was pathetic. The worst part about you is that you have no idea how worthless you have made yourself."
<Angela> "So you also see that I don't move on such feelings."
* Angela sits down, sighing.
* Drasek just smiles at Megumi, before shifting his eyes to Angela. He falls silent, waiting on something.
* Angela just looks at him, waiting for him to show his colors.
* Drasek cracks open another beer, taking a drink. "Did I say you were a bad person?" He finally says.
* Megumi gazes upward and shrugs. 1"I am sure Wind trained as hard as he could, whenever he could, also."
* Drasek smiles at Megumi, "Then you're wrong."
<Megumi> Perhaps not in the sense that you would understand. I am definitely sure he tried his hardest, however."
<Angela> "No... Meg, Wind wouldn't need to train."
<Angela> "I see now."
<Angela> "He was energy, a constant potential force, we train to bring out potential, he... was potential."
* Megumi pokes at one of her ears, closing her eyes. 1"Strength is not the only thing that needs to be developed in one's course of fate."
<Drasek> And he could control reality itself. *he says with a wave of hsi hand*
<Angela> "Can you?"
<Angela> "I mean, out of the 'shell'."
* Drasek scoffs. "No. That git was different. If I had those powers, you can bet that things would've have ended the way they did."
<Megumi> I am sure they would not.
<Drasek> I wouldn't have let you win. Like he did.
<Megumi> I would not have let you win.
<Drasek> Do you really think you stopped him? Do you really think you stood a chance if he actualy tried? The fact that you're alive shows me that he gave up.
<Megumi> I was never trying to stop Wind.
* Drasek stares at Megumi.
* Megumi finishes playing with her ear and tilts her head the other direction. 1"My task that day failed."
<Drasek> Whatever. All i'm saying is this reality wouldn't be so fucked up had I been the one to create it. No, he tried to deny life from what it is. You can't do that."
<Megumi> I cannot fully regret it-- It is the day I have to thank for my disposition with Beloved Erevis. I did not go there to kill Wind. I went to wake him up.
<Megumi> Instead he decided it best to spend eternity sleeping.
<Drasek> He gave up.
<Megumi> That is my sadness.
<Drasek> Then this entire time you've been arguing with me, even though i've been right.
<Megumi> No, I do not agree with you. In fact, I think it may be the very arrogant pride you spoke of Progenitors having yourself that you yourself suffer of.
<Megumi> Despite any vast intellect, it seems very illogical to think that a single being would be capable of creating, let alone managing, something as complex as all of a reality's intricacies.
* Megumi eyes Drasek. 1"You seem to have trouble managing a single life, let alone all."
* Drasek laughs.
<Megumi> Humor? Would you disagree?
<Megumi> A single dark one has discoursed you, besides any mental instabilities or stigma you have created for yourself. Experiences you have neglected in favor of more 'desireable' ones.
<Drasek> Discoursed me? Now you're getting into things that you have no idea about.
* Angela scratches the bakc of her head and sighs a bit.
<Megumi> That is your opinion. I may be naive, but do not underestimate me.
<Drasek> But yet you're still wrong.
* Megumi glances toward Angela, finding her more interesting for the moment. 1"I do not care if you call me wrong. To Drasek, everything is wrong but his own decision-- Perhaps why he lacks Wind's abilities."
* Drasek smiles again. "Wind didn't earn his abilities, I assure you."
<Megumi> Then I shall thank fate for bestowing them where they proved more useful.
<Angela> "Many who weild great power never earned it."
* Angela looks down. "I should know."
<Drasek> I wasn't even around when those powers came to be. It was before my time.
* Megumi eyes Drasek again. 1"...I see. Child."
* Drasek laughs even more now. "Oh god Megumi. Just go away, you're embarassing yourself.
* Megumi points to the beer can(s). 1"Self-destructive habits, rebellious to elders of kind, self-inflicted ignorance, prideful arrogance, disavowance of advice."
* Megumi turns slightly to Angela. 1"Would these not describe most youth?"
<Drasek> Beer is like water to me. I don't get drunk. *he holds up one finger* I'm older than anyone else in this building, even Erevis. *he holds up a second finger* I am more intellegent than I ever let on. *He holds up a third finger* I'm prideful because it's the way of my people and when I ask for your advice, i'll consider it.
<Megumi> I am older than most people in this building. It does not mean that I am not childish.
<Drasek> Well considering someone has to be older to be my elder. *he just shrugs slightly*
* Megumi holds up two fingers. 1"I am more intelligent than any of you would ever give me credit for, likely because I never find the need to compete with those set in their ways or display hobbies I might be rather abashed about."
<Angela> "Sounds like youth to me."
* Megumi squints. 1"I am prideful because I know these things and I am very powerful, since Famfrit's strength is dependent on our force of will, and now that I am more secure in myself and my love with Beloved Erevis has been returned, I am less worrisome."
<Megumi> I have a self-destructive habit in envy and acceptance. Yet, I will listen to advice.
<Drasek> So nice of your to join the conversation Angie. *he smiles at her sympathetically* Megumi. *he looks at her* Stop talking.
<Megumi> You will have to make me.
<Drasek> I knew I should've bought that box of superglue. *he sighs sadly*
* Megumi hrmphs slightly. 1"I rarely actually come out from Beloved Erevis, let alone speak my mind."
<Megumi> Once in a while, it would be nice if it was merely considered rather than rejected in arrogance or ignorance.
<Megumi> It would be foolish to take my words for fact either. As in the case of Miss Angela.
* Megumi hops to her feet and sways once. 1"I consider her pasts to be one and the same since she is of one person. It does not mean I knew her circumstances."
* Drasek glances around. "Seriously, if I look like I care, I really don't."
<Megumi> What good ever came of not caring?
<Drasek> Well for one, I don't have to listen to you rant and rant about shit that is irrelevant to anything at all.
* Megumi turns slightly. 1"So my desire to care is irritating?"
<Megumi> Would you prefer I did not care at all, as you seem to suggest you are?
<Drasek> You should try it. It might do you good.

<Megumi> Very well, Drasek. I will not care about you.
<Angela> "I still will and possibly do something stupid in order to earn your approval in my teenage needs for verification."
<Drasek> Good on you, then. *he gives her a thumbs up, standing*
* Megumi turns to Angela, shaking her head.
<Angela> "If you die, I'll even get misty, there could be tears."
<Megumi> Are you speaking of yourself?
<Angela> "Yes."
* Megumi nods slowly. 1"Ah, I see."
<Megumi> You may do as you wish. I will do as he asks.
<Angela> "I am being... I don't know the term, it's a sort of attempt at lightheartedness."
<Angela> "While not really going for straight humor."
<Angela> "Smug, that's it, smug."
<Megumi> Unlike Zephyr, there is no reason or need for me to sympathise with him or attempt to extend my feelings.
<Drasek> Right then. I'm going out, then. *he moves for the door*
<Megumi> I will honor his wishes, even if his life is at stake until he says otherwise.
* Drasek just laughs more as he pulls on his coat and steps out.
<Megumi> It is something I learned from Beloved Erevis.
* Megumi eyes Drasek as he begins to leave. 1"I believe it a Progenitor habit."
<Drasek> Sure, sure. *he waves, not really paying attention to what she said as he walks out*
* Angela sighs and sits back, "He's kinda a jerk still."
<Megumi> 'Jerk' is not appropriate to describe Drasek.
<Angela> "You have a better word?"
* Megumi shakes her head.
<Megumi> His indifference and meddlesome personality is well above Mister Winters'.
<Angela> "Woah... harsh."
<Angela> "I mean, I was kinda being nice, you really got dirty there."
* Megumi shrugs slightly. 1"I only speak what I believe."
<Megumi> Mister Winters shares aspects similar to Mister Carmichael.
<Megumi> Drasek dismisses things without considering them. I do not believe he truly thinks he is above them, but that seems to be the air he wishes others to believe.
* Megumi raises a finger. 1"I dislike the deceitful behaviour more than anything. It is like lying to oneself."
<Angela> "Nah..."
<Angela> "Well... they both seem to get cold with me but sometimes, sometimes, there's a gleam of genunine care under it all."
<Megumi> This is what I speak of.
<Megumi> Drasek denies this, but I have seen his concern over Beloved Erevis.
<Megumi> He is quite capable, but chooses not to.
* Megumi raises a hand and yawns behind it, then leans in slightly. 1"You awoke me knocking. Did you need something?"
<Angela> "I wanted to talk with Ere."
<Megumi> Oh. She is bathing.
<Megumi> Say, Miss Angela.
<Angela> "...Yes Meg?"
* Megumi squints. 1"You know more of Valentine's Day than I. What kind of dessert should I make for Beloved Erevis?"
<Angela> "Well, what's her favorite?"
<Megumi> I do not know. She does not eat dessert often.
<Megumi> I was thinking you might know of typical things.
<Angela> "Mmm... does she like chocolate?"
<Megumi> I believe so.
<Angela> "Then make her something chocolatey."
<Megumi> Something... chocolate-y?
* Megumi squints again. 1"This is no help, Miss Angela. The choices have not been narrowed save for one category."
<Angela> "Mmmm... can you make brownies? Cupcakes?"
* Drasek has quit IRC (Quit: HUZZAH!)
<Megumi> Neither are very difficult. I actually like to cook.
<Angela> "Then do both!"
* Megumi tilts her head to the side. 1"We could not eat that many."

<DeathStar> 6* And so, Angela has spiraled into a comatose state.
<Kit> 6Megumi pokes her in the side, bowling her over without effort.
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog yips.
<DeathStar> 6* A good smell drifts from Erevis' apartment
* Kit peers down at the robotic dog and kneels down to pet it before realizing this is something probably unnecessary. She looks around for the remote-- such devices have short range.
* Kit is now known as Megumi
* ChanServ sets mode: -o Megumi
<DeathStar> 6* Robo Dog flees in a panic.
* Megumi lets another genuine smile escape her expression. Seems Aya enjoyed that gift at least.
* Megumi rises to her feet and scratches her cheek, heading for Erevis' room.
<DeathStar> 6* Once inside, Megumi would smell something like a fish. Erevis stands over the stove, wearing nothing but an apron - literally, and oven gloves, while finishing a fish casserole, which she sets on top of the stove. A faint aroma of catnip is in the area, and it would seem that Erevis has prepared some sort of drink as well.
<DeathStar> 6* She also has hastily done her hair in a ponytail of sorts, using the hairpin.
* Megumi flits her hands to her nose and squints as she moves to shut the door, debating that fact heavily. The intelligent thing to do seems to be to leave it open to vent, yet then Erevis would be vulnerable!
<Megumi> ...B-Beloved Erevis..? What is this?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I have decided, since you will most likely make dinner on the 14th of this month, I would make my dinner tonight, and merely give you a gift on the 14th. I have made fish casserole, and a tangy alcoholic drink to go with it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns, pulling off her mitts.
* Megumi blinks and starts to gape. 1"...Y-You are pre-empting my p-plans for the holiday..!?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I merely wish to match what you will most likely do.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> And two meals would be too much.
* Megumi hangs her head. 1"I am that see-through?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do have more knowledge on what you are likely to do than you do.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis brings the fish casserole to the table, where two plates are located. She gives a big helping for Megumi's plate, and a smaller portion for her own, then sets out the drinks. She takes a seat, apparantly unphased by just wearing an apron. It's almost like the time Megumi went French Maid
* Megumi rubs her forehead, then goes and sits pollitely in a daze.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis studies her. "You are not feeling well?"
<Megumi> You really did not need to do anything... especially not so much.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Why not? 6* She seems insulted.
<Megumi> ...I do not expect you to match what I do... It is not an obligation to return affections...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not see it as an obligation. 6* She gets that indignant look.
<Megumi> You said yourself you want to match what I do...
* Megumi headtilts. 1"What if I do not live up to expectations?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I only wish to show you as much affection as you do for me. 6* She eyes the food, then casually picks up the plates. "But you are correct, I should not compete."
* Megumi grips the end of her plate, squinting.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She tilts her head.
* Megumi sniffs a few times, and continues to hold onto it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You desire the food?
* Megumi nods a few times, still blind. 1"It smells good."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis pauses, then lets it go, setting her plate down as well. "I have spent some time manipulating the lighting in the apartment." 6* She suddenly moves to the lights, turning them off, then turns on a lamp that casts a non-threatening shade of light out.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Is this better?
* Megumi opens her eyes slightly and ponders, completely oblivious. 1"Huh?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> The lighting.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sits back down at the table.
<Megumi> Oh... Thank you, Beloved Erevis. The light does not bother me so much from incandescent sources-- I am merely growing more accustomed to... sensing."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. 6* She seems to pout a little. "That is a wise tactic."
* Megumi rubs the end of her nose with her fingertip, then smiles weakly. 1"I am sorry. If... I think about it, I am sure it would bother me to never be ...looked at. I will try to adjust."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do enjoy looking into your eyes, however, if you wish to train your senses, I am quite understanding.
* Megumi shakes her head slowly. 1"It ...passed beyond training a long time ago."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Oh?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis folds her hands in her lap, not touching her food or drink right now.
<Megumi> I blame it on nuissance, yet at this point, I am likely losing touch with sight's usefulness by avoiding it so much.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If you wish to rely on your other senses more, though, it is understandable. Your have very good senses.
* Megumi holds up a hand and giggles. 1"...I am not really a beast, you know. My soul might have corrupted part of itself into being feral, but it remains a fact that the only sense I have above a human's is my hearing."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You seem to have a fairly decent nose.
* Megumi looks up and opens her eyes fully, grinning. 1"Not really. What makes you say that?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis considers. "You seem to notice smells more than I do, that is all."
<Megumi> I might have developed a bit of a precognitive sense, but that is a necessity around these people. I must be wary of mischief!"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> The others do mischief? 6* She tilts her head.
* Megumi taps her lips. 1"Mh, I do not think so... But I do tend to like fish and because of Miss Angela I must often try to avoid catnip lately."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm. 6* She eyes the drinks suddenly.
<Megumi> Eh?
* Megumi studies Erevis. 1"...What is wrong?"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis merely takes both glasses and moves them to the side. "I will get normal sake."
* Megumi stares blankly for a while, then jerks. 1"Y-You put catnip in the drinks..!?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You enjoyed it very much one time, and I thought it would be nice to make the drink again.
<Megumi> One time?
* Megumi peers upward and blanks.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She stands up and just picks up the glasses, moving them to the sink.
<Megumi> ...I-If you want, I will have a little..
<Megumi> It is a waste to dispose of it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You do not need to worry about it. 6*
<DeathStar> 6* She begins to tilt the glass to pour it out.
<Megumi> I do not know what it even tastes like!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You have said yourself you avoid catnip.
* Megumi rubs her forehead. 1"I blank out if I am exposed to it fully."
<Megumi> I am sure a little is fine...
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We should be careful in any event.
<Megumi> Huh?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not wish for you to blank out while eating your meal. 6* She begins to get glasses for sake.
<Megumi> O-Oh...
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis fills them up with plain sake and sets them down, sitting down again.
* Megumi pouts slightly. 1"Beloved Erevis said I can be cute when catnip is involved, though.."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
<Megumi> I am sure it is fine once in a while then, hrmph...
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head. "Then do you wish for me to make more?"
* Megumi nods. 1"Perhaps later, then..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I can do so now, if you want it. 6* She stands, taking the sake glasses and moves back to the sink.
<Megumi> Aieee! Do not pour that out, too!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Do not worry. 6* She begins to gather items, almost secretively, to make her drink.
* Megumi leans a little, tilting the chair in curiousity.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Please do not peek.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis looks over her shoulder. "Your food is getting cold."
* Megumi gulps and rocks back into place, turning and peering at the food.
<DeathStar> 6* The poor food seems to be cooling down from lack of attention.
* Megumi stares a moment, then takes up utensils and starts! Focusing mainly on the fish...
<DeathStar> 6* Strangely, it tastes pretty good, as if Erevis has made this dish before. Or got damn lucky.
* Megumi gradually eats at a quicker pace, but retains her methodic way of doing so without spilling or dropping anything.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis sets down another Catnip Surprise drink
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis also sits as well, watching her. "Do you like it?"
* Megumi nods quickly, her eyes shut again in a content manner. Then they open slightly and she peers at the drink and studies it curiously.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis seems to be studying Megumi intently now.
* Megumi picks it up and sips on a leap of faith.
<DeathStar> 6* It would seem Erevis has created a fruity alcoholic drink, mixed with some catnip for extra flavoring.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis plays with her food with her fork, watching Megumi.
* Megumi seems to find it being one of those things that you need a few sips to get used to, then a few more for interest, then a couple more because you think you like it, then another because you apparently do.
* Megumi sets it down half-empty and goes back to nibbling fish in a very amiable manner.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis finally takes a bite of her food now, not saying anything more.
* Megumi finishes up after a manner of time and sighs contently. 1"Ahh."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It was satisfactory? 6* She studies Megumi's behavior, to see if she is suffering ill effects.
* Megumi nods quickly to Erevis, still not saying much, but has a rather wide grin on her face as she... teeters.
<DeathStar> 6* Dun dun dun - END-

* Angela stands on the roof, a breeze keeping her cool despite her workout.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> What was that? 6* She asks, holding a metal pipe in one hand, facing off against Angela, the first and only person to to agree to training.
<Megumi> A kata.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> But making noises does not make the weapon do more damage.
<Angela> "A focused strike, the sound is merely part of the exertion."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is illogical.
<Angela> "I'm human, we defy logic."
<Megumi> No, however many do it anyway, as they feel a need to vent vocally what they fail to pour into their attack.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is true.
<Angela> "Are you sure about me using this sword for training? I don't want you to get hurt by accident."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is unlikely.
<Megumi> You are fifteen hundred years too early.
* Megumi nods assuredly a few times. ...Figurative speech? Ahahaha.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head in confusion at Megumi.
<Megumi> It is a saying...
* Megumi sulks.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> What is she too early t odo?
* Angela nods and stabs forward from that kata position, a sudden strike used by assassins.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis swings her pipe to knock the stab away from her, without putting much effort into it.
<Megumi> To harm Beloved Erevis..
* Angela turns the deflection into yet another sweeping strike, pressing the attack.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis shifts her wrist to knock it off target again with her pipe.
* Angela twists her won wrist, the blade threatening to slice the pipe in half.
<DeathStar> 6* Strangely, the pipe does not cut in half.
* Angela pulls back, eyeing her sword then the pipe. "...You're doing something to that..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I neither deny, nor confirm that statement.
* Megumi sits against the stairway enclosure's wall, sipping some strange manner of drink from a sake server. She smiles in amusement for some reason.
<Angela> "Hmmm..."
* Angela gets into a new stance, one that holds the blade out in front of her, holding the sheath by it's far end. "Alright, you come at me."
* Megumi giggles suddenly, then pauses, and sips demurely.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You are done with your offensive manuevers already?
<Angela> "For now, I don't like to bunch it all up."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. Very well. 6* She doesn't move at all.
<Megumi> Miss Angela, have you ever considered branching out?
<Angela> "Branching out?" *she watches Erevis carefully*
<Megumi> You are a person. Just because you are wielding one weapon, does not mean the focus need be entirely on that weapon. Unlike me, your body is not physically useless in most situations.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis just stands there.
<Angela> "I am fully trained in over 18 forms of ranged weaponry, 5 forms of hand to hand combat, and this sword."
<Megumi> That is not what I asked.
<Megumi> If necessary, you can use the weapon to create openings, or even yourself to create openings for the weapon.
* Megumi inclines her head slightly. 1"The weapon itself, solely focused, may not be enough." 6Sips.
<Angela> "You mean use more then just my sword."
<Megumi> Correct.
<Megumi> It would have been impossible...
* Megumi bursts out into laughter. 1"...To defeat Dearest Ariel with a sword alone. Fortunately, you need not restrict yourself to such a narrow standpoint unless you are like Dearest Ariel's knighthood."
<Angela> "Back then I used Beta's and had Spade's power to tap into." *she moves, striking with her sword down at Erevis*
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps to the side to avoid it.
* Megumi muses over her drink in her lap, drumming her fingers along the container.
<Angela> * From below and to the side comes her sheath, the end strike out as Erevis moves. More then just her sword indeed.
<DeathStar> 6 *Erevis uses the pipe to deflect it.
* Angela grunts, licking her seathe with the pipe, she brings her sword back around to strike.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis just steps backwards out of range.
* Angela presses the advantage, as Erevis steps back she attempts to force the pipe out of her hand, her strike moving toa thrust that dances after Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis just moves her weight and balance to the side to avoid any forceful attacks. It appears she's content to dodge Angela all day.
<Megumi> Interesting people. I would not think someone as Miss Angela would have had the time, much less the tenacity, to learn to fight in so many ways when much of her time was surely spent inventing and calculating for inventions themselves.
* Angela keeps striking, almost happily letting Erevis dodge.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis continues to avoid, using either pipes or movements.
<Angela> "Half of me trained as a special agent her whole life. Call it the advantages of a double life."
<Megumi> Yet the physical body is Miss Angela's solely, is it not?
* Angela keeps striking, she forms a grin as her strategy becomes apparent, she's danced Erevis to a corner, the edge of the roof.
<Angela> "Sadly yes."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis, sadly, would never let her do that.
<Megumi> Were you physically identical twins?
* Angela sighs and gives up after a bit, backing up.
<Angela> "If you count when I was a Dragoon, then yes. We were the same person, after all."
<Megumi> Was this a majority?
<Angela> "Of my life? From the lives I can remember, yes."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis puts up the pipe.
<Megumi> I point this out, because if there were differences, the memories would not avail differences in physical reach and reaction times. In addition... Even if they are closely-recalled memories...
<Megumi> If this physical body was not conditioned in the same way, you can not hope to reach their 'recollected' potential. Though I am sure training rigorously will help close the gap.
<Angela> "I spent the last two years adapting."
<Megumi> Adapting to what?
<Angela> "This weak body."
<Megumi> ...You have had 'Sera''s memories for two years?
* Angela readies another stance.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis adjusts her ponytail as the two talk, her back to Angela.
<Angela> "One of em."
<Angela> "Don't turn your back Ere... I'm not one to strike it."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We are finished.
<Angela> "Already?"
* Angela sighs.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes.
<Angela> "So another time?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Indeed.
<Megumi> Miss Angela, could you defeat, you think, a stray cat?
<Angela> "Depends on the cat."
<Megumi> All instincts, drawn their their finer bases...
* Megumi giggles again, shaking the bottle around. 1"...Are the same at their lowest points."
<Megumi> NRP: Drawn to their >_>
* Angela sits back and sighs, "I could try going Omega mode in my head... but I doubt it'd even begin to work now."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis turns back to face the two again.
<Megumi> Are you not trying to create a future?
<Angela> "It's why I gave up being a Dragoon."
<Angela> "I wanted kids..."
* Megumi frowns, in her shut-eyes way. 1"What good is digging up memories of those times, then?"
* Angela trails off a bit.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis adjusts her coat a little, glancing out over the city.
<Megumi> New results require new methods to achieve. The old ways lead only to the old eventualities.
<Angela> "I need to live long enough for another chance..."
<Megumi> You will, if you want to strongly enough.
* Megumi hops to her feet, staggering off onto one foot for a moment, then teeters back steady and laughs softly. 1"Come on, I want to see..."
<Angela> "...See what?"
<Megumi> If you can defeat a stray...
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis crosses her arms, frowning disapprovingly.
<Angela> "I already know you're stronger then me Meg."
<Megumi> Stronger...? Eh... I am much, much weaker.
* Megumi pauses suddenly, then laughs louder. 1"Oh, that."
* Angela eyes the crazy lady.
* Megumi waves her hand dismissingly and trails over away from the staircase enclosure in a lanky manner. 1"I would not worry about that. I shant use such methods on you. That is..."
<Megumi> You know how 'that' works, Miss Angela, surely.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Megumi Zhenmei. Should you be training after what you have just swallowed?
* Megumi grins like a cheshire at Erevis. 1"Nyaaa... It will be fun...!"
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns more.
* Angela sighs, "I'd use it if we ever were in a real fight, but I don't see how a mouse will be good for trianing."
<Megumi> ...If I gave it thought or cared to think of it that way... Famfrit seem like defective versions of what lead to Progenitors, you know. Weak little failures-- We can be pretty strong, though, even a reject like me..!
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Please do not speak of yourself in a negative manner.
* Megumi giggles. 1"...Our... abilities, we can manipulate so many things at the molecular level... or even just try to reject it outright..!"
<Angela> "Meg."
<Megumi> It has its drawback, however... It is based on our will. If I truly wanted, if I really felt it necessary, to get rid of you... I could scatter you to the wind in so many directions a trace was never to be found...
<Megumi> I do not feel that way. There is no reason for Miss Angela to disappear.
* Angela looks at her seriously, her face in a look it hasn't been for a long time. Completely serious. "You are a strong, powerful person, you have the power to protect others as much as to destroy."
<Angela> "You aren't weak."
* Megumi leans her head back and finishes the bottle, then tosses it nonchalantly to Erevis! 1"So what are you afraid of? I do not want to destroy you, I just want to have fun."
* Megumi waves her hand dismissingly again. 1"Wahhh, again with that ...Strength is not always physical or about destructive potential. I keep saying that... Mentally, as a personally, emotionally... I am very weak. It can be used against me just like any other combative weakness."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lets the bottle bounce off of her, glancing down at it as it hits the roof.
* Megumi leans back and stretches her arms and back. Upon hearing the bottle hit the ground her head snaps quickly to focus on it, then she relaxes again, smiling widely. 1"...Ah, sorry Beloved Erevis. ..You made it for me, hee.."
* Angela picks up her sword and stands up. "Alright, fun."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis jsut watches the two, her expression expressionless now.
* Megumi swoons her head back toward Angela and wobbles, shakily setting her feet, then raises her hands, palms with fingers bent at the knuckles. She showed it to Angela once. 1"...Hee, okay...!"
<Megumi> I will not ...tell you what I might do, however... hee...
<Angela> "The enemy doesn't."
* Angela closes her eyes, then moves, with surprising sloth, right at Meg.
* Megumi gets an inquisitive expression, lips parted in an 'oh' look. 1"Nope, so what weapons will I be using, huh?"
* Megumi moves a hand to her mouth and yawns suddenly, swaying, but remains where she was... more or less standing.
* Angela strikes down at Megumi with her sword.
* Megumi reaches up and forms a dagger, parrying, but lacking much strength, only delays it enough to shift off to the side. She giggles again, using her opposite hand to form her gladius-style sword and swings in a relaxed way.
<Megumi> We... are similar, yet different... Hehe. You learned many things with yours, I merely used mine by best instinctive response...
* Angela reaches swiftly, he free hand darting in for Meg's wrist, her sword coming down at Meg's side.
* Megumi coughs once, then leaps, spring-stepping off the flat of the sword, her wrist encapsulated her freedom of movement is restricted, but she certainly won't let that stop her from being an irritating target. Her left hand lets go of the dagger and trades it instead for a manifested tonfa which she uses to swat at the clutching hand, ignoring Angela for the second.
* Angela uses that moment to bring the back of her sword's hilt down on Meg's neck.
* Megumi tumbles forward, lessening the strike, rolling forward. Swatting Angela's hand, she slips her own out of it and falls forward, reaching up to do a handstand, on the way down she strikes with something a bit less typical-- Her crystal tail swats at Angela's face.
* Angela leaps back, standing defensively.
* Megumi twists her hands and twirls, leaning a foot down to stand on it, then turns around straight, then hops on one foot as if not perfectly stable.
* Megumi reaches back, slowly forming her giant sword, the zanbato. In the middle of manifesting she begins to leap forward to strike with it, perhaps taking advantage of the lack of weight thus far. 1"Whee!"
* Angela moves forward, her sword coming up, forcing the Zanbato to slide forward in an odd direction as she presses forward, her fist flying for Meg's stomach.
* Megumi grips the tall hilt of of the Zanbato and swings around it, the weight of the sword fully manifested greater than her and used as a counterweight, sending her knee for Angela's shoulder area.
<Megumi> Are you not one of those types that enjoys fighting..?
* Angela ducks down teh preses up, forcing Meg into the air with the very shoulder that was the target. "Nope."
<Megumi> Too bad. If you turn it into a playground, so many opportunities come into focus!
* Megumi accepts the momentum, performing another flip and extending her leg during the arc, dropping in the fashion of her lotus kick.
* Angela brings her sword up, like a spike for Megumi to fall onto if she keeps going.
* Megumi grips her hands closely together, forming her naginata, its blade manifesting snugly nose-to-nose with the sword's edge, and she slides around it like a pole rather than a polearm, resting briefly on Angela's shoulders like a small child, then rolls off backwards.
* Angela leaps back, dragging her sword a little. "Truth be told, I always hated fighting."
<Megumi> Then why fight?
* Megumi dashes for her, quite, quickly, elbow drawn up, other raised with a fist close to her face.
<Angela> "Survival."
* Angela flcisk her wrist and raises a field, psuhing a shield out at Meg, a sort of rolling wall.
* Megumi veers obscenely sharp to the right, seeming to sense its end, and retracts around it, speeding toward her and slashing with the crystal nodachi that has a reach three times her height.
<Megumi> You cannot trust us for that?
* Angela retracts the sheidl the nodachi go flying in several directions. "I don't make others fight for me."
<Megumi> Of course not, we are not your tools.
* Megumi hops back, putting a hand to her chest and gasping for breath.
* Angela smiles. "Then you see why I fight."
<Megumi> I never asked if you would use us instead.
* Angela sighs, breaking the fight off.
* Megumi catches her breath, sprinting. The pause seems to be one of her greater weaknesses and ...it's not used. She runs rapidly right for Angela with no weapons drawn.
* Angela makes no move to stop her.
<Angela> "I gave up my power... maybe part of me doesn't want to give up fighting just yet."
<Megumi> Sure, but what do you want?
* Megumi pauses abrubtly and reaches down with one hand, focusing. 1"...Ready...?"
* Angela shakes her head.
* Megumi finishes focusing and moves, shifting in such a manner that the habit in a fighter to predict a movement seems to waver slightly, subconsciously creating two eventual positions. Whether Angela defends or not-- her eyes have been closed the entire time.
* Angela makes no movement.
* Megumi drives upward from directly afront Angela, but also seems to descend from slightly above. The one above drives the scythe form of the emerald sword downward as she laughs in a ghostly fashion-- Yet the one below shifts and extends her hand, the broken lower half of the rune blade turned sideways to stop the edge, parrying herself. Afterward only the one holding the scythe remains and drops to the ground in less than two seconds.
<Megumi> Ah, you are finished?
* Angela nods quietly.
* Megumi stumbles and falls over backward. She poises, seated on the ground of the roof, cradling the scythe, stifling a giggle at her own clumsiness.
<Megumi> My apologies. I thought you might like a chance to see what I used on Dearest Ariel-- Except at the time, I overdid it a bit and used three vertices.
<Megumi> Dearest Ariel still managed a counter blow that injured me just as well as Zephyr has, hee.
* Megumi frowns slightly, lifting one hand from the scythe handle and coughs, then enters a fit of doing so and sighs.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves over finally, lifting and picking up Megumi like a child.
* Megumi lets the scythe dissolve away and giggles, throwing her arms around Erevis' neck. 1"I overdid it anyway, hehe."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You have a tendancy to do that, yes.
* Angela sheaths the sword, sighing a bit as she rests it on her shoulder.
* Megumi nudges her face against Erevis' and kicks her feet a bit. The tail remains, twitching back and forth playfully beneath her. 1"Doing something like that... It requires the old manner of manipulation. A mistake on my part. You win, Miss Angela."
<Angela> "Thanks."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods to Angela, then moves to take Megumi back inside.
* Angela doesn't look happy at her victory, moving to go inside as well.
<Megumi> They call it 'martial arts' on Earth, right?
<Megumi> So make it a true art, create something that really represents what you want.
<Angela> "Yes..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
<Megumi> If you rely on what you were taught, just those principles, anyone who studies those things will read right through it... Go wild. Works for me, anyway.
* Megumi holds up a hand and laughs drunkenly. 1"Cannot believe you fell for the tail. The tail, hee!"
<Angela> "Mmhmm..."
* Angela walks along, looking at the floor.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis shifts Megumi so she can open the door to her apartment.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Goodnight, Angela Bennet. If you wish to do more training, I will be pleased to oblige.
* Megumi squints. 1"Huh, we are going away already?"
* Angela turns, her apartment just opposite them. "I'll take you up on it later."
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps inside, moving to close the door with her foot, then moves over, laying Megumi into the bed.
* Megumi waves over Erevis' shoulder, being carted like a bedroll or something. 1"Bai, bai, Miss Angela...!" 6Then glances at the ceiling shortly before resting back on the bed, twisting slightly and stretching either arm in a luxurious manner.
* Angela steps into her room and shuts the door, she pulls the cover off her creation, staring at it silently.
<DeathStar> -END-
