<Garland> Session 145: No need for a Designated Driver!
<Wiendigo> NRP: It's definitely drunken fun
<Garland> Time: Two days after the end of Psi Wars
<Kain`Ashbone> NRP: ^L^ *bonks Hotaru*
<Garland> Place: Origin, everyone is where they want to be
* Diamondback walks around the halls by himself, lost in thought
<Hotaru_Airier> NRP: I wanna be with Stilletto... but...
* Garland stands in the control room, argueing with Snipe over how the events went over two days ago
<Seraphna> *Psion duels with a floating saber, bored from not leaving the station in... weeks.
<Seraphna> *ELayne is sleeping.
<Seraphna> *Lucas and the other kids are tearing apart the kitchen looking for fish.
* Diamondback forms a ball of energy over his hand and stares at it while walking
* Gravedigger looks over reports in the control room
<Garland> GM: The Origin has been eerily calm, there being a quiet in the galaxy for the most part, even the Tsiv seem to have slowed down a bit since the destruction of the Psion planet.
* Garland looks at Grave
<Seraphna> NRP: GO ahead sis, she's in the kitchen.
<Kara> NRP: Huh?
* Hotaru_Airier rushes around the kitchen, in a fish-finding frenzy
* Diamondback dissipates the ball, shakes his head, then flips upwards and begins walking again on the ceiling
<Seraphna> NRP: Sisty Ali ^^
<Kara> NRP: oh.
<Seraphna> *ends her duel and the lone saber drops to the floor, putting her own away she heads to the control room.
* Wiendigo is...around
* Garland sits down in his chair, chewing on his pencil as Snipe heads out, peeved from their arguement (not displayed so I don't mutilate the characters)
<Seraphna> WHat was that about?
* Diamondback , near the room, watches Snipe walk off in a huff, then heads into the control room himself, jumping "over" the doorway and righting himself on the ceiling of the control room
<Seraphna> *Smiles and sits down in another chair*
<Gravedigger> It's Snipe time of the month.
<Seraphna> *blinks*
<Garland> GM: *Death Star has been locked away in the planning room, debating the next course of action*
<Diamondback> <What was that all about, Garland? John being a pain again?>
* Garland glances at Grave
<Garland> Nah, he's just like this every day of the week that ends with "day".
* Diamondback hangs upside down, his newly-regrown ponytail hanging downwards
<Garland> Nah, just argueing about how drastically sloppy the events two days ago were...
<Diamondback> <...Whoo, you should try this some time. Nice feeling, blood rushing to your head and all...>
<Seraphna> Sloppy?
* Garland looks up at DB
<Garland> I'll pass.
<Diamondback> <...We did kind of rush in... I'll take credit for that.>
* Gravedigger looks up
<Gravedigger> Just...don't puke.
<Seraphna> *giggles* Hunters? Sloppy when?
<Diamondback> <No guarantees, Grave.>
<Garland> Heh... Chris, where's Jared?
<Gravedigger> Okay, then how about don't puke on ME?
<Diamondback> <Dad? Eh, last time I saw him, he was asleep.>
<Diamondback> <No guarantees there either.>
<Gravedigger> ...I nkew I should have brought my umbrella today..
<Garland> .... He sleeps a lot.
<Seraphna> *Elayne wakes and sits up sighing... its been a hard week
* Diamondback nods, and his cap falls off
* Gravedigger grabs DB's cap and slips it on
<Diamondback> <...Hey!
<Diamondback> >
<Gravedigger> Hey, a perfect fit!
* Garland stands up and leans against the console
<Seraphna> *Looks at Garland...*
<Hotaru_Airier> Where's all the fish...?
<Diamondback> <...Ok, I won't puke on you. Now give me my damned cap.>
<Gravedigger> ...But I like your cap!
<Garland> Hey, you guys think I could lay off the alliance a while? I'm tired of not seeing any of the action..
<Seraphna> Lucas> I DUNNO!
<Diamondback> <Fine, have it your way.>
* Diamondback telekinetically pulls the cap to himself
<Seraphna> *SMILES*
<Hotaru_Airier> AHHHH!!!!!!!!
* Garland crosses his arms
<Seraphna> I'D like to have you back on mission.
* Hotaru_Airier frantically looks EVERYWHERE for fish
<Garland> Well, I talked it out with John, I know I'm not the most liked guy around here so I asked.
<Diamondback> <It'd be good to have somebody other than me and Sera that can fight for a change, Garland. *smirks*>
* Diamondback replaces his cap
* Gravedigger grumbles
* Diamondback lets go of his hold on the ceiling and drops to the floor
* Garland smirks a bit
<Seraphna> Aye, even if it still means that I'm the toughest *winks*
<Garland> GM: *there is fish in the cafe*
<Gravedigger> If you're nixing the alliance crusade, Gar, you'd better let Wien know.
<Diamondback> <We'll see, Sera, we'll see.> *grins*
* Hotaru_Airier grabs the fish and starts munching!
* Garland coughs into his hand
<Garland> Right... Wien... Where is he, anyway?
<Garland> I know he's not with DS, he won't even let me in to see what he's doing in there.
<Seraphna> <I'd challenge ye to a psion match, but I know you're no fool... *giggles*>
* Gravedigger shrugs
<Gravedigger> Who knows with him.
<Diamondback> <I'd accept it, if we had the time right now.>
<Seraphna> *Jonas accidentally lets the fire alarm off in the kitchen*
<Garland> We're off for a while...
<Seraphna> <Well there we go!>
* Diamondback glares at Garland and rapidly tries to think of another excuse
<Seraphna> *almost fals over laughing as Elayne enters the control room*
<Garland> But Sera, Chris was hurt in the mission, remember?
<Seraphna> That's why I know he's not a fool... ^^]
* Diamondback rubs the back of his neck, his face turning a little red
<Seraphna> TECHY> NOT THE HOTDOGS!!! THE T WORMS! *runs by with a fire extinguisher*
<Seraphna> *blinks*
<Hotaru_Airier> ...?
* Diamondback raises an eyebrow
<Seraphna> Home sweet home...
<Diamondback> <...Riiiight.>
<Seraphna> *fire alarm blares on, Jonas teleports out of there*
<Garland> Well, I'm thirsty... Don't we like... need to celebrate that the Carters are back in our midst?
<Hotaru_Airier> Who set the fire alarm o...ff?
<Seraphna> Lucas> Umm... maybe this was a bad idea?
<Diamondback> <Or Carter, in this case. I have a feeling Dad's still asleep.>
<Seraphna> *Picks up Hota and teleports, the other Hianule kids follow suit.
<Hotaru_Airier> <Still can't teleport...>
<Seraphna> *Elayne smiles to DB and walks over to one of the consoles*
<Garland> I'm going to go let Wien know I'm staying behind, I'll head to the bar afterwards.
* Gravedigger waves to Elyane
* Garland teleports to the bottom level of Origin
* Diamondback grins at Elayne and waves
<Seraphna> Lucas> You'll get the hang of it. *the appear in the family quarters*
<Seraphna> *waves back to them both smiling*
<Seraphna> *sighs*
<Seraphna> That's the one problem with that man! I CAN'T TELEPORT!!!
* Diamondback grins at Seraphna
* Garland walks through the darkly lit corridors of the sub levels, sniffing the air for traces of Wien
<Diamondback> <You mean you're admitting that you can't do something I-> *breaks off by teleporting*
<Seraphna> *sighs*
*** Storm{Eating} is now known as Storm
*** Storm is on IRC
<Seraphna> *eyes glow as she studies teh technique*
* Diamondback reappears in Jared's quarters
<Hotaru_Airier> ...
<Seraphna> No but after I see that one more time I'll know how... ^^
* Blackjack snores
<Hotaru_Airier> ...?
<Hotaru_Airier> You learn from watching?
<Diamondback> <...Man.> *grins evilly, and his eyes turn purple*
<Seraphna> *blinks at Hotaru* Yes dear, it's a little trick I learned when I was a child.
<Wiendigo> *snorts* You're trying to find me by SMELLING?
* Blackjack slowly begins tossing and turning
* Garland crosses his arms under a light
<Garland> Well, you do have a memorable aroma, best way to tell what level you're on.
<Hotaru_Airier> But... how can you do that for things like teleporting?
* Blackjack suddenly sits bolt upright in bed
<Blackjack> No, I WON'T gi... *looks around, and sees DB*
* Wiendigo strikes a match and lights up a cigar fro mbehind Gar
* Diamondback waves nervously, quickly fading his eyes to their normal colors
<Gravedigger> ...You people scare me. *goes back to reading reports*
<Blackjack> ...Don't bother, I know it was you. *swings out of bed, fully clothed*
<Garland> I'm sure DS will just go straight for the Horizon when he's done planning.
* Diamondback glances Jared up and down
* Garland doesn't turn to him
<Wiendigo> Good for him.
<Diamondback> <...You just wore that to bed.>
<Blackjack> So? I was tired!
<Garland> Yeah, so I'm telling you.
<Blackjack> C'mon, show your dad some respect.
<Garland> I'm staying behind
<Wiendigo> Well godo for you.
* Hotaru_Airier sighs.
* Garland looks back, but not turning his head
<Diamondback> <...No. As for what I came for - Garland's throwing a party down in the bar. If you think you can go down there without embarrassing me, come on, it's in our honor.>
<Hotaru_Airier> I feel so... weak...
<Garland> Let him know for me. Oh, and we're holding a party for the Carters.
<Blackjack> Right, right... *yawns* I'll be down in... a while... *yawns, longer this time*
<Seraphna> *ELayne yawns and stretches, standing, "SO I hear there's gonna be a party?"
<Wiendigo> ...And you're telling me this why..?
* Diamondback telekinetically shoves BJ into a standing position
<Garland> I thought you'd be interested in attending.
<Diamondback> <Don't tell me you're missing out on a chance to play cards and get drunk?>
* Blackjack yawns anyway
<Gravedigger> Yeah, I think your dad's throwing a party for BJ and DB.
<Seraphna> *Ellie looks at GD*
<Seraphna> *Smiles*
<Blackjack> Fine, fine... I'll be down. Just give me some privacy!
<Seraphna> *ELAYNE SMILES*
<Wiendigo> Eh.
<Diamondback> <Remember I can sense you, Dad. I'll know if you go back to sleep.>
<Garland> .... Free beer.
<Seraphna> NRP: Argh... too many espresso...
<Wiendigo> ..
* Blackjack blinks and appears to curse mentally
<Diamondback> <I heard that.>
* Diamondback teleports off
* Wiendigo exhales a cloud of smoke.
<Hotaru_Airier> <So... ummm... any idea how to teleport yet?>
<Seraphna> Elayne> Cool.
<Garland> I'll see you there.
<Wiendigo> God dammit, you drive a hard bargin.
* Garland teleports
<Seraphna> *Seraphna sighs... "I need to see DB do it again"
<Gravedigger> *keeps reading* Yep.
* Diamondback reappears near the bar
<Hotaru_Airier> But... you have an idea roughly, right?
* Garland appears in the bar (The Four Leaf) and finishes setting up
<Seraphna> Yes dear.
<Hotaru_Airier> Could you explain it?
<Seraphna> *Jonas appears on the counter
* Diamondback strolls into the Four Leaf, shuffling a deck of cards between his hands (with some telekinetic help)
* Garland nods and smiles to Jonas
*** SpeakY10k is now known as Galvatron
<Diamondback> <Looks like I'm early.>
<Garland> Punctuality can be a good thing.
* Garland pours him a drink
<Seraphna> *Joans giggles and hops to teh floor, going chiere, looking to be about a blonde, 5 year old version of Garland.
* Diamondback telekinetically pulls it to his hand
<Seraphna> I'm not sure...
<Wiendigo> NRP: *screams at that mental image* Noooooo! Good God nooooo!!!
<Seraphna> Let's go down to teh party okay?
<Seraphna> NRP: ^^
<Garland> ....I thought you two were twins? *thinks of how old Luke is*
* Hotaru_Airier sighs.
<Seraphna> *Jonas shruggs*
* Diamondback sips the drink slowly
<Seraphna> *walks into teh bar*
<Hotaru_Airier> I usually need to practise, but I can't practise unless I know what to practise...
* Hotaru_Airier starts to think.
* Garland sits back a little
<Seraphna> Your otehr son is more of a fighter... and I think he learned my ability to control age...
<Diamondback> <No sense getting too drunk too early, I always say. It's always more fun to watch everyone else make asses of themselves while you're sober. *snickers*>
<Garland> You kids have it harder than we did back in the first war, you know that, right Chris?
<Diamondback> <So Dad has told me.>
<Seraphna> I'll back that up...
* Diamondback swirls his drink around
<Seraphna> *smiles* As the most injured of the lower rank Hunters.
<Hotaru_Airier> You can control age, Sera?
<Diamondback> <You? I can't see that...>
<Seraphna> *blushes* Well... yes I can... but only through extreme will...
<Hotaru_Airier> Wait... it does make sense...
*** X1 is on IRC
*** X1 has joined #taw
*** ChanServ sets mode: +o X1
<Garland> Yeah, but we had a lot of drinking parties to wash away the stress.
<Hotaru_Airier> I should practise...
*** X1 has left IRC
*** X1 is now known as X2
<Seraphna> Yes... when you spend most of your career about the size of Hota here... you tend to get hurt a lot!
<Diamondback> <I think that's what we need. Less talk, more beer.>
<Seraphna> HERE HERE!
* X2 teps into the bar
<Seraphna> PASS ME THE USUAL HUN!
<Seraphna> *winks*&
<Garland> .... Orange Juice for you, Sera.
<Seraphna> *blinks*
<Garland> I don't trust you drunk
<Garland> !
<X2> I heard something about a party...?
* Garland hands her a drink
<Seraphna> AWWWW!!!!
* Diamondback takes his cap off and tosses it into the air. With a hand gesture, the cap disappears in a flash of purple energy.
<Seraphna> *smiles*
* X2 blinks
<Diamondback> <You're in the right place, medic-boy.>
<Seraphna> I DO own you ^^
<Hotaru_Airier> NRP: Would controlling age count as a seperate power, BTW?
<Seraphna> *drinks up*
<Garland> ....
* Diamondback catches himself on that
<X2> ...Hookay, think I'll be on my way...*starts to slowly back out*
<Garland> We'll see about that, woman! *sprays her with the water gun*
<Seraphna> NRP: No just GMness or your own personal choice as a Lunarian
<Garland> Aw come on in X2.
<Seraphna> ACK!
<Diamondback> <Remember way back when? I actually signed on with the Special Force as a psionic healer.>
* Diamondback grins, leaning back
<Seraphna> *creates water over his head, glad she wore black today*
<X2> No ,that's okay, I have, um...expereiments! That's it, I have experiments running, I realyl should go check on them. Yep, look at the time.
* X2 takes a giant step the other way
<Seraphna> *Elayne walks in*
<Garland> Actually... you should ask Jared about the first time I had alcohol.
* Hotaru_Airier concentrates hard...
<Garland> ... Free beer night, X2.
<Seraphna> Elayne> X2... you said we finished all the projects though...
<Diamondback> <I have the feeling I don't want to know.>
* X2 stops mid-step
<X2> I did?
<Hotaru_Airier> NRP: But I'll always have blonde hair.
<Diamondback> <...X2. Freeeeeeee beeeeeeer...
<Diamondback> >
<Seraphna> *Elayne nodds*
<Hotaru_Airier> NRP: And I AM with Sera?
<X2> .oO(Must...escape...weirdos...Think, man, think!)
<Diamondback> <I heard that.>
<Seraphna> *yup, on her shoulder by now I guess...*
<X2> (D'oh!)
<Garland> Anyway..
<Seraphna> ANOTHER ROUND!
* Diamondback grins, his eyes purple
<Seraphna> *hic*
<Garland> NRP: I guess you guys know this is a laid back session by now
<Hotaru_Airier> ... *hops off Sera's shoulder, onto the counter first then*
<Diamondback> <Make sure nobody's reading your mind before you call them a weirdo next time.>
* Gravedigger is stil lup in the control room, going over reports
* Garland pours a drink for Sera
<X2> .oO*Um...Hey, look over there!)
<Seraphna> *giggles and smiles*
<Diamondback> <Make X2 a drink, Garland.> *ignores X2*
* Hotaru_Airier glows, and changes to ATLAN form.
<Garland> What'll you have, X2?
<Seraphna> Elayne> Come on Mr. X2! It's only my daddy's bar!
<Seraphna> *Walks in smiling
<X2> I'll have...A Split-And-Go
* Hotaru_Airier concentrates hard.
<Garland> Don't carry those.
<Hotaru_Airier> Why am I still a kid...?
<X2> Meaning I'm splitting and going!
* X2 starts out into the hall
<Diamondback> <Eh, let him go. Medics never like to have fun, you know that.>
* Garland blinks at X2
<Garland> I suppose.
<X2> .oO(Now I heard that!)
* Garland sits down
* Hotaru_Airier glows some more and... grows up.
<Diamondback> *to X2* <Meant for ya to, medic.>
<Seraphna> *Elayne blinks* I like fun...
<Hotaru_Airier> <Huh?>
* X2 comes back in
<Diamondback> <Ok, so there are some exceptions.>
<Hotaru_Airier> YES!!! *leaps up, punching the air*
<Seraphna> Elayne> <*giggles*>
<X2> I'll be sure to make your next shot in a really unpleasant, Mr. Carter.
<Garland> You're forgetting who's daughter that is, Chris, I wonder if any of us follow any rules...
<Hotaru_Airier> I'm not a kid any more!
<X2> NRP: Unpleasant area, even, yeesh
<Diamondback> <That's why I'm a medic too.>
* Diamondback snickers
<Seraphna> *Sera blinks drunkenly at Hota*
<X2> Give me something stiff. In an ale.
<Diamondback> <There was actually a time when I devoted my psionic studies to learning solely how to reconstruct the human and robotic bodies and revitalize the spirit.>
<Seraphna> ANOTHER ROUND!
* Garland hands X2 a drink
<Diamondback> <...You think maybe you ought to slow down a little, Seraphna?>
* Garland hands Sera a water
* Diamondback looks at his own first drink, only about half empty
<Seraphna> I... I can take more than this!
<X2> I AM my father's son, after all. And I believe he still holds the drinking record out of you golden oldies. *smirks*
* Garland smirks at X2
<Seraphna> *looks at the water*
<Seraphna> THIS WINE LOOKS WATERY!
<Garland> We don't see enough of you around the place, X2.
<Hotaru_Airier> Gimme some too!
* X2 takes a hit of the drink...then twitches a bit
<Seraphna> HUN! You watering down my wine?
<Garland> That's.. because it is water, Sera.
<Seraphna> *blinks*
* Garland hands Hota a drink
<Seraphna> Well... so it is!
* Diamondback smirks
<X2> Th-That's good s-stuff...*twitch*
<Diamondback> <What's the matter, medic? Can't hold it?>
* Diamondback thinks about something
* X2 holds up the mug

<Garland> Calm down Sera...!
<Hotaru_Airier> YEAH!
* Garland hands her a drink, holding his head
<Seraphna> *DRINKS UP*
* X2 turns back to Gar, after a trailing look at Sera
<Diamondback> <This is going to be an interesting night...>
<Seraphna> Elayne> Uh oh... momma's drinkin again...
<X2> Yeeahh...Anyway, with all of this war business, I've been kept pretty busy.

<X2> Umm..
<Seraphna> Elayne> Momma... gets wierd when she drinks...
* Diamondback telekinetically flips out two cards face down, one to himself and one to Garland, then flips two face up cards out likewise, without even asking Garland if he wants to play
<Seraphna> *LAUGHS LOUDLY*Y
<Garland> Slow down, Hota...
<Hotaru_Airier> Oh... great...

<Seraphna> *blinks and walks over to Garly hugging onto him*\
<X2> I happen to have sedatives here...
<Seraphna> Mine... mine mine mine...
<Garland> I'll hold her down.
<Diamondback> <I have a Carter-style sedative.> *shapeshifts a 2x4 into his hands*
* Garland hugs her, looking over Sera's shoulder at X2 pleadingly
* X2 stiffles a laugh as Sera hangs over Gar
<Seraphna> *nuzzles him*
<X2> I think that's the other way around, my friend.
<Garland> .... DB no!
* Diamondback reverts it
<Diamondback> *to Gar* <I was kidding, dude.>
* Garland teardrops
* Wiendigo appears in the dooray
<Seraphna> *Jonas comes out of the back carrying a bottle with a green label on it, for grape juice*
<Diamondback> *to Gar* <When are you going to learn to NEVER take a Carter seriously, hmm?>
<Hotaru_Airier> <What's wrong with her like this, anyway?>
<Seraphna> MINE!
<Seraphna> *pushes Garly down behind the counter*

<Diamondback> <...Let her have her fun. If she gets to rowdy, I can blow her mind.>

<Hotaru_Airier> Wien!
<Garland> Pity me..
<Seraphna> *Sera hangs offa him*
* X2 looks at DB
* Hotaru_Airier heads over to Wiendigo.
* Wiendigo doesn't stop, and walks out the door
<Seraphna> *Jonas trots over to Ellie and gives her the bottle
<Hotaru_Airier> You're such a great guy...
* Garland taps his fingers on the bar
<Diamondback> <...Stop looking at me like that. It's just a quick technique I learned. Overloads the mind, makes the person pass out. No pain, no damage at all.>
* Hotaru_Airier chases!
<Garland> I think Lunarians get weird when drunk...
<X2> Perhaps you can find a better way to phrase that...
<Seraphna> *kisses Garland smiling*
* Garland slaps his forehead
<Hotaru_Airier> WIENDIGO!!!!
* Wiendigo keeps walking
<Hotaru_Airier> Is that for me?
<Diamondback> <Take my advice, Garland - don't bother.>
* Wiendigo stops and glares at Hotaru
<Wiendigo> Now what do you think?
* Hotaru_Airier smiles cutely.
<Garland> Chris, was this a mistake?
* Gravedigger snarls and turns around, walking off again
<Diamondback> <Probably. But who cares? It's peacetime. We can afford to get drunk off our asses for one night.>
*** Kain`Ashbone has left IRC
*** Kain`Ashbone is now known as Id
<Seraphna> *ELayne smiles, "AT least this stuff doesn't get you drunk!"
*** Id is now known as Ye
<Seraphna> *Elayne takes a sip*
<Garland> I suppose so.
* Diamondback swirls his drink, not really interested in it
<Hotaru_Airier> Well...
<X2> And watch as some enormous crisis breaks out. 'Drunken Hunters, to the rescue!", I can see it now.
<Seraphna> *Blinks and looks at the bottle and sets it down*
<Seraphna> Elayne> HIC@
<Hotaru_Airier> If you DON'T want to show just how great you are...
<Garland> I'm hard to get drunks.

<Hotaru_Airier> Don't you like me?
* Hotaru_Airier does the puppy-dog eyes on Wien
<Garland> Anyway... What's everyone up to these past two days?

* Gravedigger hums to himself as he keeps going through reports (Hey, gotta keep tabs)
* Diamondback walks into the open center area of the bar and drops into a fighting stance
<Garland> ... There's three of them now...
<Seraphna> *Nuzzles Garland*
<Wiendigo> Nope.
<Seraphna> *Elayne stalks out*
<Ye> NRP: *insert druken orgy here*
* Hotaru_Airier sighs and heads back.
<Garland> Chris?
<Seraphna> *ELayne enters the control room, giggling*
* Diamondback gathers psionic energy in his hands, increasing his speed
<Hotaru_Airier> Elly?
* Gravedigger looks up from the reports, at Elayne
<Diamondback> <Me? I've been training a lot...>
* Hotaru_Airier follows Elly.
<Gravedigger> ...Elayne?
* Diamondback lets a flurry of punches and kicks fly, making sure all the drunkards are nowhere nearby
<Seraphna> *Elayne smiles and walks over to him* Yeah?
* X2 sips his drink, watching DB
<Gravedigger> ...Are you okay?
* Hotaru_Airier giggles.
<Garland> You know the training room is right next door, right?
<Diamondback> I may have... lost some ability... but some is still there. *stops*
<Diamondback> <Just wanted to get that out of the system. Sitting still too long.>
<Garland> Just like your dad... can't stop fidgeting.
<Seraphna> *Elayne nodds and smiles*
<X2> ...And you have no better way of releasing that tension?
<Hotaru_Airier> You two make such a cute couple! ^_^

<Seraphna> ELayne> WHat?
* Hotaru_Airier doesn't realise how bad that sounds, and rushes off.
<Garland> .. Eh?
<Gravedigger> ...You're drunk, aren't you? *looks at Hotaru after her comment* 
<Seraphna> *pulls him behind the counter*
* Diamondback glows bright purple in midair without stopping his assault on the air

<Seraphna> Elayne> *sits back in his lap* So... why you workin so hard?
* Garland claws the wood, trying not to get pulled back under
* Gravedigger gulps, then clearing his throat and adjusting himself in the seat

<Diamondback> *to X2* <I think we're the only sober sane people in here.>
*** Hotaru-chan has joined #TAW
* Hotaru-chan tacklehugs the ATLAN
<Seraphna> You know... you usually don't run in the other direction *giggles*

* Hotaru-chan shrugs, and tries to kiss the ATLAN
<Seraphna> *The Atlan goes beet red*
<Seraphna> Atlan> I-I-I-I-I-I....
<Garland> <Yeah... What's with your eyes? I thought it was all over with?>
* Hotaru-chan giggles.
* Diamondback mentally shruge
<Gravedigger> Go on, Elayne, I-*closes his eyes and sighs* No, wait, you're drunk. If there's something you want to tell me, you should probably wait until you're sober, or else you might regret it, because drunk people can't control themselves, and *keeps rambling on*
* Diamondback mentally shrugs, rather
<Seraphna> Elayne> I um... I'm not sure I'm ready...
* Gravedigger blinks
<Seraphna> Elayne> TO get married to JohnI mean...
<Diamondback> *to Garland* <I think it's in our best interests to get out of here...>
<Gravedigger> Oh..
<Garland> <Indeed.>
* X2 twitches on the floor, stiff as a board

<Seraphna> Elayne> Umm... I....
<Seraphna> Lucas> Huh? Dad?
<Seraphna> Lucas> What was a bad idea?

<Seraphna> Elayne> I... I like you...
* Wiendigo chucks the empty barrel accross the room, belches long and loudly, then walks back out

* Gravedigger stops dead, looking at Elayne
<Seraphna> *Lucas blinks, "Sure dad..."

<Garland> Am I getting the right idea, Chris?
* Gravedigger blinks at Elayne, stunned and speechless
