Session Start: Wed Apr 19 19:16:20 2006
Session Ident: #taw
* Logging #taw to 'logs\EsperNet\#taw.20060419.log'
<DeathStar> Stardate: Immediately Thereafter Last Session That Was Hence Held by Those Present (Except Xanatos Who Has Died Frometh Disease)
<DeathStar> Location: Slevinic Homeworld, Dining Hall.
<DeathStar> 6* A large table set up has been placed to give everyone a chance to be close to the head of the main table (the honored guest's table), as well as give a sense of unity based on races. Yes, it seems PAX is eating with Cran.
* Alicia has joined #TAW
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits down at their section of the table, glancing at General Cran who is in front of him on the other side. He merely nods to him.
* Seraphna sits next to her father, smiling, Elsiah finally breaks from her position by the door to sit for food, Ceres joining everyone soon after that.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina sits down next to Darien, smiling politely at the guests acrossed from them, though she probably doesn't care for them.
* Chad`Winters sits four seats down from Darien, he seems to be idly spinning his fork around in his left hand as he waits.
<Chad`Winters> *Shiva sits comfortably near the end of their section*
* Arhn is seated, presumably with Waren at her side.
* Ariel takes a seat next to Darien, if she finds it free (If not, next to Kat), plesantly trying to convince herself that she hasn't noticed Cran sitting on the other side of the table.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien nods to Ariel as she sits next to him, and which puts her across from Sera.
* Seraphna smiles to Ariel, bowing her head to her.
<Seraphna> *Ceres sits down next to Kat, yawning a little, "Busy night."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Tired already?
* Ariel nods to Sera, a bit of a smile, still seeming to have a gap in her vision which is occupied by the elder Cran.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sits on Ariel's left, staring at Sera with a creepy lack on her face.
<DeathStar> (look)
* Chad`Winters looks over at Ceres, who appears to be sitting next to him now, his fingers idlesly twirling in his left hand
<DeathStar> 6* Warren sits beside Arhn, looking uninterested with the goings on by the Cran side. He keeps his gaze locked on Xevil's table, and how Xevil peers toward Arhn now and again.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: knife.
<Seraphna> *Ceres smiles to Chad, "Having fun?"
<Arhn> *whisper* ...I wonder just what his interest is...
* Seraphna smiles to Zeph, her smile not forced anymore, the look in her own eyes soft, possibly concerned?
<DeathStar> <General Cran> Here is to peace. 6He holds up his cup of wine to Darien and those across from him, sipping it as their food is delivered - a mix of Slevinic food that is suitable for their group.
<Chad`Winters> I'm content. *he looks down at the food being placed infront of him*
<DeathStar> 6* Darien holds up his cup in return, giving Cran a challengingly look as he drinks his wine.
* Seraphna joins in the toast.
<DeathStar> <Warren> I would assume something you would not find pleasant, from what I've read. 6He says in a low voice.
<Seraphna> *Ceres also toasts, smiling as she drinks down the wine.
* Ariel holds up her glass in toast as well, and hopes the conversation will not come to the methods to achieve that peace.
<Arhn> *whisper* ...quite...
<DeathStar> <Cran> So, on the methods to achieve that peace...
<DeathStar> NRP: I'm joking.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr toasts as well, seeing Ariel do it. She sips her wine, then glances at it oddly.
* Chad`Winters shoots a glane at Serena, his fingers spinning the knife into his hand where he grabs onto it tightly.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances in Chad's direction as she does the toast as well, as if glancing into his emotions.
<DeathStar> <General Cran> You know, Commodore, I never much pictured you as a diplomat. It never seemed to be in your interest.
* Ariel smirks a little, and whispers to Zephyr, "I'll explain the difference between this, and what the engineers do, later."
<Xanatos`Durran> NRP: Ok back. We had to talk about room selection.
* Seraphna puts her cup down and at least pretends not to notice Chad, showing no signs of feeling threatened. She smiles, hearing Ariel's words.
<DeathStar> <Darien> Well, General, I always pictured you as trying to be President. 6He says with a slight smile.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> *seems to look around the table, as if studying everyone attending*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr nods, then finishes her wine in one swallow, seemingly unphased by it's contents. IT's quickly refilled by a waiter.
* Chad`Winters reaches over picking up his fork and begins to eat, glancing at Cran as he talks to Darien.
<DeathStar> <Cran> We all do what we can to ensure peace for our generation. 6He says with false modesty.
* Seraphna blinks and stares at Zeph, suddenly remembering her time with the Tsiv
<Seraphna> "Ariel... you may wanna give her a detox..."
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *whisper* This is a battle...between individuals.
* Ariel takes a sip from her drink, and then stops, and pats Zeph on the shoulder, "Wine is for savouring. Not to see how fast you can poison yourself."
<DeathStar> <Darien> I would imagine that would mean you give PAX your full support then, General. 6He takes a bite of some of the meat. "Hmm, good."
* Chad`Winters quirks his eyebrow at Darien's comment, a slight smirk appearing on his lips.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I understand. 6She looks at Sera. "I do not require any 'detox'."
* Xanatos`Durran eats his food quietly, glancing around the table.
* `Cole sits beside Shiva, eating his food as well.
* Ariel looks to Seraphna, "The engineers tried to get her drunk once, and failed. She'll be fine."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> You're late Cole.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren listens in on the Cran/Darien talk. "A battle of wills." 6He comments offhandedly to Arhn. He takes a bite of his food, being polite and eating it.
<Seraphna> "Oh... must be my makeup then... do you get drunk at all m... Ariel?"
<Seraphna> *Ceres eats quietly
<Chad`Winters> ...*looks at Sera eyeing her and studying her as she talks to Ariel*
<DeathStar> <General> Ah. I gladly support anything that successfully ensures peace for Earth. 6He says, taking a bite of his food. "Very good."
<Chad`Winters> But foremost being PAX of course? *he states to Cran*
<Arhn> I agree.
* Ariel starts on her dinner, then pauses to reflect, "Well... I've honestly never tried. It's not the most dignified activity."
<DeathStar> 6* Cran looks at Chad, suddenly losing interest in Darien. "I do not see PAX as the most successful method for peace thus far. It's track record, at best, is mediocre."
* Seraphna shrugs, "It may be my makeup then that makes me susceptible..."
<Seraphna> "So... Zeph... enjoying PAX?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> It is an interesting experience. 6She says politely.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren takes a bite of his food again, chewing slowly. He glances at Arhn, probably listening to the conversation while at the same time keeping his focus on her.
<Chad`Winters> I do believe that our successes outweigh our failures overall. You cannot deny that Earth has become stronger because of the alliances that PAX has forged so far.
<Seraphna> "I miss it... Hangar bay still in one piece?"
<DeathStar> <Cran> Alliances that could be forged without the aid of PAX. The project has cost more money than it's benefits bring about.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> It is highly efficent.
<Seraphna> "THat's good..." *clearly trying to break the ice* "...so... how are the others...?"
<Chad`Winters> Possibly, but regardless, the Alliances were made because of PAX. And if a proper amount of money would have been transfered to PAX in the beginning less would have needed to have been spent now.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ...
<DeathStar> <Cran> Earth's diplomatic agents have been forging more alliances and treaties over the last few decades than PAX has done in a year. The fact of throwing more money at PAX would be pointless.
<Chad`Winters> So you would say that the current technologies we have gained from our recent alliances have been worthless?
* Seraphna looks down at her food and eats carefully, "I umm..."
<Ariel> NRP: ... did he really compare what Earth did in decades, to what Pax did in a year?
<DeathStar> NRP: I flipped it around, really.
<DeathStar> NRP: I meant to say in a year than what PAX has done in years.
<DeathStar> <Cran> I would say those same technological advances could easily be gained through a more centralized diplomatic core on Earth than by PAX.
<Chad`Winters> PAX started off as nothing more than an extension of Earth did it not?
<DeathStar> <Cran> PAX's creation was nothing more than a project to see how successful it would be. A project that is still being evaluated.
<Chad`Winters> I see.
<Xanatos`Durran> General Cran. Do you not agree with PAX?
* Seraphna picks at the food, looking up at Zeph, "For whatever it's worth... I'm sorry."
<DeathStar> 6* General Cran chews his food. "You all see peace as something only PAX can accomplish. The fact is that PAX is accomplishing only a small amount. There are more productive ways to ensure peace. You all see this as a "us" against "them." The fact is I do not agree PAX is successful.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina chews her food silently.
<DeathStar> <Darien> All things small need a chance to become something bigger.
<Xanatos`Durran> Would you deny that most of PAX's problems had come from your own Daughter?
* Ariel frowns a little at that, not sure what she thinks of that comment.
<Chad`Winters> I do not believe that the majority of the problems came from his daughter Xanatos. But I do believe his co-worker did cause several problems.
<DeathStar> 6* General Cran suddenly smiles at Xanatos. "Another mentality of "us" vs. "them." from you people. You seek to place blame for your problems with dealing with situations on others. Is this how PAX achieves peace? By blaming others?"
<Seraphna> *Ceres seems to be listening intently, eating slowly
<Arhn> Ahem...it is rather rude to engage in this verbal sparring at the celebration for another.
<DeathStar> 6* Before Cran can speak to Slasher, he nods politely to Arhn. "I agree, Ambassador Arhnya."
<Seraphna> "This should be a time of bonding and celebration..."
<Seraphna> "We should all learn to let go of strife at such times."
* Xanatos`Durran glances at Chad, then at Cran. "Hmm yes you make a very valid point. Spade did cause a lot of problems for us. As did Serena. But I've also caused problems and as has Chad. But we are working very hard to make up for past mistakes. I think you might want to give a little more time General. We might surprise you at how successful we can be."
<DeathStar> 6* General Cran looks at Durran, seeing he wishes to continue this conversation.
<DeathStar> <Cran> I believe this discussion was put on halt. Perhaps another time, Lt. Commander?
* Xanatos`Durran nods his head. "That would be fine with me General. Please enjoy the rest of your meal." He lowers his head lightly.
<DeathStar> 6* General Cran takes another bite of his food, seemingly unphased by what has happened.
* Ariel starts to eat quietly, a lot on her mind now.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien drinks his wine in silence, chewing on the inside of his mouth.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Well done. 6He says to Arhn under his breath, glad to have the mess over with for now.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *whisper* Pssst... Xan.
<DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr hasn't touched her wine again since the beginning now, eating some peas.
* Xanatos`Durran glances at Cassandra.
<Arhn> I was merely stating the obvious. *nods*
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *whisper* Don't get into that stuff with Cran. The guy is a politician in a uniform. His profession is making others eat their words.
* Chad`Winters takes another bite of his food.
* Xanatos`Durran just shakes his head at her and returns to his meal. He knew it to begin with, but he wasn't about to just let Cran trounce on PAX's name.
<DeathStar> <General Cran> How are you enjoying your meal? 6He asks Sera.
<Seraphna> "It's delicious... and the company is interesting too."
<DeathStar> <General Cran> Are you catching up on old times? 6He asks goodnaturedly.
<Seraphna> "Very much so... even with people I've barely met before."
<DeathStar> 6 * The guest of honor begins to make a speech. It's kind of basic.
<Xanatos`Durran> <Kane> *Doesn't look at Cran, he only moves his attention from his food whenever the guest of honor speaks.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien gives his full attention to the guest of honor, as does Katrina. Zephyr seems to be busy inspecting a strange fruit.
* Arhn also gives her attention to the speech.
* Xanatos`Durran moves to look at the guest of honor.
* Ariel lets her dinner wait, as she turns her attention to the guest of honor. She taps Zephyr's arm, and guestures slightly towards him.
* Chad`Winters turns his attention towards the guest of honor.
* Seraphna smiles and listens to the honored guest as well. Giving him her full attentions.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> *sets down her wine glass and watches intently*
* `Cole glances at Shiva, before putting his attention to the guest of honor.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks up.
<DeathStar> 6* The honored guest finishes speaking about his life experiences, hopes for his planet's future, and hopes for the galaxy. He sits down
<DeathStar> 6* Everyone RPed by myself and all the NPCs clap. It's quicker that way.
* Chad`Winters claps his hands as the man finishes his speech standing up and giving him a slight bow.
<Seraphna> *All three of my people clap ever so cheerfully, Elsiah a little off as she's been drinking a lot.
<DeathStar> NRP: I bet that was Shiva.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Nope.
<DeathStar> NRP: Freaky.
* Xanatos`Durran claps as does Kane and Cole.
* Ariel applauds politely.
<Chad`Winters> <shiva> *claps a little over-enthusiastically*
* Arhn gives her own applause.
<DeathStar> 6* The dinner, obviously finished now, is over. People begin to stand up and speak, some moving to say their goodbyes to the guest of honor. Since everyone has been allowed to stay on the planet for the night, some are retiring to look at the gardens.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren stands up calmly.
* Chad`Winters stands up, picking up his glass of wine.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> *stands up and makes her way over to the guest of honor*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stands up, eyeing her plate of peas being taken.
* Arhn rises as well.
<DeathStar> 6* The guest of honor is currently speaking with Xevil. Xevil finishes, turning to look at Shiva. "Well, hello, Emissary Sevintes."
<Chad`Winters> Greetings Ambassador Xevil.
* Ariel stands, and looks to Zephyr, "Is there anything you'd like to see here?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I do not believe so. Though I will gladly accompany you if you do so.
* Xanatos`Durran stands and begins to move toward the guest of honor.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien and Cran both walk beside each other, talking to each other. They don't seem to be so enemy like as they move off.
* Seraphna stands slowly and smiles to Ariel and Zephyr, "Mind if I tag along for a bit...?"
* Chad`Winters moves to step past Xevil and upto the Guest of Honor
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shifts a bit, though she remains politely neutral.
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil walks over to Arhn. "You are looking well tonight, Ambassador. Your dress really suits you."
<`Cole> <Kane> *Stands and moves with Sera*
* `Cole continues to drink from his glass.
* Chad`Winters steps upto the Guest of Honor. 1"I want to thank you once again for giving us the chance to join you tonight, it is a night we will not soon forget."
<DeathStar> NRP: I still suspect that is Shiva.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: That one is.
<Xanatos`Durran> NRP: Yeah me too.
* Chad`Winters looks over at Xanatos, giving him a what the hell look.
* Xanatos`Durran has his back turned to Chad, he is currently standing behind shiva, awaiting a turn to talk to the guest of honor. He isn't looking anywhere but at the Guest's face.
<DeathStar> 6* The Guest of Honor nods. "I thank you for your kind words."
<Arhn> ...my thanks...Ambassador Xevil...
<Ariel> "At a time like this, I don't suppose there could be any harm." *pauses a moment* "I should thank our host once more for the invitation, however."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren steps up tensely to look at Xevil. Xevil only smiles, holding out his hand toward Arhn in a handshake gesture. <Xevil> I wish you luck, Ambassador.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina steps outside for some fresh air, taking in the starry sky.
* Seraphna nods
<DeathStar> 6* Darien and Cran arrive behind Durran.
* Chad`Winters turns heading outside, he steps up behind Katrina then off to the side, standing infront of a railing.
<Seraphna> *Ceres sighs and goes out to get some air, yawning a bit as she passes Arhn, Warren, and Xevil.
<Arhn> ...thank you. *accepts the handshake*
<DeathStar> 6* Warren tenses.
<DeathStar> 6* Xevil shakes her hand, then moves off to leave.
* Ariel takes a moment to thank the guest once more for this opertunity, once she sees he's free.
<Xanatos`Durran> NRP: Is Shiva still standing there at the guest?
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> PAX looks forward to having honor of working with your people in the future. *she bows deeply towards him*
<Arhn> Be at ease...he wouldn't attempt something here.
<Xanatos`Durran> NRP: Nevermind.
<DeathStar> <Warren> A delayed poison can be passed through touch. 6He takes Arhn's hand into his own, waving a device over it. He seems to have smuggled it in.
<Seraphna> *Ceres smiles and nods to Xevil, stepping outside
* Seraphna waits for Ariel with Zeph
<DeathStar> <Honored Guest> Thank you.
* Chad`Winters turns around and makes her way to the garden.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: BAKA!
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> *turns her head and makes her way to the garden*
* Xanatos`Durran steps forward to the guest he lowers his head humbley. "I hope that my rudeness did not ruin your evening. Please forvive me in my act of stupidity."
<Chad`Winters> Did you have a good time Katrina?
<DeathStar> NRP: Damn that Shiva and her sex changes to Chad.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: That was Chad.
<DeathStar> <Honored Guest> ... Excuse me?
<Arhn> You need not be soobvious about it...
* Xanatos`Durran raises his head. "I spoke out of place and was very rude during dinner. I hope I didn't ruin your evening."
<DeathStar> 6* Warren slides the device back into his sleave, still holding her hand. He smiles at someone passing, bringing up Arhn's hand to his lips, kissing it gently.
<DeathStar> <Honored Guest> ...
<DeathStar> 6* The Honored Guest looks as if he's troubled now.
* Chad`Winters takes Katrina's quietness as a sign she doesn't want to talk and takes a sip from his wine, leaning over the railing.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I had a good enough time, I suppose. 6She says, glancing at him. "Though you seemed tense."
* Ariel idly starts to stroll a little, after returning to her kin. "It has certainly been a unique evening. And an enjoyable one."
* Xanatos`Durran eyes him for a moment. He frowns, "Forgive me for troubling you, please ignore this ignorance as well."
* Xanatos`Durran turns to walk off.
<DeathStar> 6* The Honored Guest just stares.
* Kulix has joined #TAW
* Seraphna smiles, "I get... kinda homesick... or is it... kinsick? Being around you two has made me feel... very refreshed..."
<Chad`Winters> It'd be a lie if I said otherwise.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> It's okay. It's a tense situation, when dealing with words carefully.
* `Cole excuses himself from the ordeal, making his way out toward the Gardens.
<Chad`Winters> Something I believe you need to educate your servant about.
<Ariel> "I do not know how well I could stand being around your father or his subordinents. But I suppose, he would never have treated you to the experiences he has put me through."
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> *steps off to the side, watching Katrina and Chad talk*
* `Cole slowly steps up to Shiva. "Lady Shiva, how was your evening?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> My servant?
<Chad`Winters> Xanatos Durran.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Your words are in poor taste, Chad.
<Chad`Winters> Aye, I'm running out of names to call him.
<Arhn> Shall we go out to the gardens?
* Seraphna nods quietly, then looks to Zeph, "You're angry at me..."
<Chad`Winters> I fear it won't be long before I've exhausted the dictionary.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> I need some air... *heads outside*
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> It was most excellent. How about for you?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I believe that would be accurate.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren nods to Arhn, moving to escort her to the gardens.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> .... 6She brushes back her hair, not saying anything now.
<Xanatos`Durran> <Kane> Things aren't so easily forgotten Serena. But perhaps in time, you can work to build a new relationship with Zephyr.
<Chad`Winters> Or were you referring to my engagement with General Cran?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Why do you insult Durran so much? 6She asks him suddenly, turning around to face him.
<`Cole> It was fine, I mostly sat and enjoyed the music. *he smiles at her lightly* Get any business accomplished tonight?
* Seraphna nods and smiles a bit weakly, "Zeph... I can only express how sorry I am... and admit I was little more then a tool during the incident..."
* Ariel rests a hand on Zephyr's shoulder protectively, but doesn't add anything to the conversation at the moment.
* Arhn goes with Warren...
<Seraphna> "...Maybe someday you can come to understand and forgive me for what I did..."
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You may like to think you were just a tool, but you were in full control of your actions at all time.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr turns and walks off.
<DeathStar> 6* Warren moves her out into the garden maze, a bit away from others. He stops after a pace, looking up at the stars himself.
<Chad`Winters> *turns around as he hears her turn around* At first, because I wanted to give someone a real reason to hate me. But things have a way of changing as time progresses.
* Seraphna sighs weakly and looks down
<Arhn> Hmmm...
<DeathStar> <Katrina> So it's just habit to be mean?
<DeathStar> <Warren> Something on your mind, Lady Arhn? 6He asks her, turning to look at her.
<Seraphna> "I've alienated my sister before ever getting to know her... let alone meet her..."
<Chad`Winters> I believe it's turned into an odd bond, perhaps sort of....a kinship or unconditional brotherly love?
<Arhn> Just pondering matters...
<DeathStar> <Warren> I see. 6He doesn't press matters from there.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Really? Is that all it is? 6She asks, glancing at him.
<Chad`Winters> You think there's more? Jealousy?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Jealousy? 6She repeats the word strangely.
* Seraphna looks at Ariel
<Ariel> "I would be surprised if any of them do not feel the same. You've killed many of your own kin. That is not something that one can easily, if ever, forget."
<Chad`Winters> Perhaps I'm no longer following where this is going. Care to explain?
<Seraphna> "I'm the black sheep of the family I guess..."
<Xanatos`Durran> <Kane> And simple apologies wont make their opinions change. You have to prove you truly feel sorry.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: More like the psychotic murderer.
<Seraphna> "How... is the real question."
<Xanatos`Durran> <Kane> That is something you'll have to figure out yourself.
* Ariel nods to Kane, "I would not deny someone their chance at redemption, but to atone is something you need to earn. It is not given to you."
<Seraphna> "How could I ever atone for what I've done...?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Nothing. 6She cups her hands together, looking out at the gardens.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> No real business, just talked to partners.
* Xanatos`Durran steps outside and glances at Katrina and Chad.
* `Cole nods. "Well I do hope you enjoyed your evening." He glances up at the sky, "It is beautiful here."
* Seraphna sighs deeply, "I may never atone... but I'll try..."
* Chad`Winters glances over at Xanatos, taking another sip of his wine. 1"Well perhaps when you do know, you'll let me know so I can become a better person from it.
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> That it is Cole, that it is.
<`Cole> <Kane> That's all you can do Serena. *He bows lightly to Ariel* Thank you for being so kind despite everything that occured in the past.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks at Durran, offering him a smile.
* Xanatos`Durran smiles at her, but she could definitely feel that he is troubled.
<Ariel> "It is a personal belief of mine that no one can fall so far that there is no return, if they truely have the will to redeem themselves." *closes her eyes a moment* "...and I know better than my children, the sort of person General Cran can be."
<Chad`Winters> Go comfort him Katrina.
<`Cole> <Kane> *Rises and nods to Ariel* It was a pleasure seeing you again. But I think i'm going to steal Serena away from you now. *He nods once again and moves to lead Sera away*
* Chad`Winters takes another sip of his wine and turns around to look up into the sky.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks at Chad, moving over to Durran. She leans against him as he stands there. "What's wrong?"
* Seraphna smiles to Ariel as she's pulled away, "See you around... Mother."
* Ariel bows her head, "Take care. You two walk a dangerous path."
* Xanatos`Durran just shakes his head, "I'll tell you about it later....
<DeathStar> 6* Warren shifts a bit.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Okay.
<Xanatos`Durran> <Kane> *glances back at Ariel* It's nothing we can't handle. *He smiles lightly and continues on*
<Chad`Winters> <Shiva> *moves over and steps beside Chad, leaning her back against the railing* So Chad Winters, care to explain to me why I wasn't offered a dance?
<Arhn> Is something wrong?
* Seraphna lets herself get led away
* Xanatos`Durran moves his eyes up to the sky. "It is a beautiful night tonight."
* Ariel rests against the wall a moment after the two depart. Memories... they seemed destined to torment her, both by their presence and their absence. After a moment, she stands again, and goes to check on Zephyr, to make sure she's alright.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Yes. This is a lovely place.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Nothing at all. 6He glances at her.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr has found her way to a painting of a naked woman, tilting her head at it.
* `Cole glances down Katrina. "My head is aching, I think I might go and lie down. Care to join me?"
* Ariel smirks a little, and pats Zephyr on the shoulder, "You might not want to stare too closely, or someone might get the wrong idea."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I guess it's almost time to get back to the shuttle anyway. I doubt Darien will have us stay the night.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Why displace an unclothed person?
<DeathStar> (display)
<Arhn> Well, I am ready to retire for the night.
<DeathStar> <Warren> Let us return to the shuttle.
* Arhn nods.
* Xanatos`Durran nods, "You're right. That'd be too expensive." He smiles at her, and begins to walk toward the shuttle.
<Ariel> "Because, like anything natural, an unclothed body has a certain beauty to it." *pauses, then adds* "When presented properly."
* Cassandra_Arakawa sitting on the ramp of the shuttle, staring up at the stars...
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I see. 6She notes to remember that.
<DeathStar> Session Ends
