* Logging #taw to 'logs\EsperNet\#taw.20091112.log'
<DeathStar> Stardate: 10-591.3.17
<DeathStar> Location: Executive Building
<DeathStar> 6* Mortimer Kane leads Chad Winters around, who has been summoned for an 'important duty' he hasn't been told yet - which is actually just him being a candidate for Ambassador, since Cheryl bugged Kane until he called Chad down for an 'interview'. Sitting on a bench in the hallway is Cheryl, hiding her face behind a book as she spies
<Chad`Winters> You going to tell me why I'm here yet?
<Xanatos> <Kane> All in due time Mr. Winters. I simply wanted to allow you get aquainted with the building a little more before I get to that.
* X1 has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
<Chad`Winters> It's a building, I get that already.
<Kit> 6Chii, disguised as an elderly woman because of her white hair, sits beside Cheryl, whispering. 1"Psst. This is a horrible idea. With him, we'd be at war in no time.."
<Xanatos> <Kane> Hmm. You seem agitated. Is there a problem?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> As if he'd pass the tests.
<Kit> <Chii> Just to spite us, he would.
<Chad`Winters> Well besides being summoned all the way here for a reason everybody decides to dodge around, nah there's no problem.
<Xanatos> <Kane> It's not everyday you're called to the executive building for things. I would simply feel honored that I was being brought in.
<Chad`Winters> And you wonder why I'm clearly agitated.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Eh.
<DeathStar> 6* The doors open ahead and Eve steps out. "Chad! You actually came. I was shocked to see your name down."
<Xanatos> 6* Kane pauses and peers towards Eve slightly.
* Chad`Winters pauses as he eyes Eve at that. 1"I..." 6He stops for a moment then slowly looks back at the people hiding behind books.
* X1 has joined #taw
<DeathStar> <Eve> ... Something wrong?
<DeathStar> 6* She pauses, peering at Chad
<Kit> 6Chii isn't hiding behind a book-- she's an old woman!
* Chad`Winters clicks his tongue as he moves for the two.
<Xanatos> <Kane> I was just about to bring him in for the interview process. But he seems quite angry.
<DeathStar> <Eve> ... 6* She watches Chad now, squinting.
* Chad`Winters reaches out and pushes the book out of Cheryl's face
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes him. "Hello, brother."
<Kit> <Chii> Youngsters these days... s-so rude." 6She hobble-inches away.
<Chad`Winters> I can't help but have this sneaking suspicion you're setting me up on something. 6He calmly shifts his foot out to trip Chii
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And here I was expecting you to thank me for giving you an excuse to see Eve.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve peers at Kane. "He didn't sign up for the job, did he?"
<Kit> 6Chii stumbles, then does an un-elderly lady-like thing of cartwheeling back onto her feet. 1"..."
<Xanatos> <Kane> You should know him better than I.
<Chad`Winters> Yeah like you'ld do something that nice for me. 6He shakes his head and messes her hair quickly
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And yet there she is. 6* She points at Eve, ignoring his touching her hair
<Chad`Winters> Did you enjoy the designs I had the gardners cut your bushes into?
<Kit> <Chii> ..." 6She stands up straight and waves. 1"Hi, Eve!"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Dias appreciated losing his entire month's pay.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Hello, Chii.
<Chad`Winters> I'm sure he'll recoup it someway illegally.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Um, Chad, we really should get started with the interview. Your name is down.
* Chad`Winters slowly looks at Eve. 1"Interview?"
<Kit> <Chii> Can I watch? This'll be hilarious.
<DeathStar> <Eve> For the ambassador position.
* Chad`Winters just stares now.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane peers between then, then clears his throat. 1If you will. 6He motions into the room Eve just stepped out of.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve eyes Kane, hoping he'll chime in. Tucker would have a field day if they had phony interviews.
<Kit> <Chii> He's the perfect face of Earth. Grunts, ignores everyone and does whatever he wants.
* Chad`Winters twitches slightly. 1"Cheryl. I strongly suggest you run while you can."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She eyes Chii
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> So you get a few hours of interviewing, then can have dinner with your woman. Suck it up and be a man.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane glances slightly at Eve's look before looking back to Chad. 1It really is not such a bad thing.
* Chad`Winters pinches the bridge of his nose. 1"I hope you know that you will pay for this." 6He makes his way over to the Eve.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve moves in with Kane to take seats on one side of the table. Cheryl moves into the opposite room to peer through the one-way glass
<Kit> <Chii> Oo. Scary." 6She wiggles her fingers ominously.
<Kit> 6Chii pauses, then slinks after Cheryl, gasping. 1"Oh god. Ahaha."
<Xanatos> 6* Kane moves in and takes his seat.
* Chad`Winters walks past the one way glass then raps his knuckles against it and flicks the two off. He moves over and takes a seat
<DeathStar> 6* Eve nods at Kane to begin asking questions
<Xanatos> 6* Kane clears his throat and peers at his questions. 1Why do you think you would make a good ambassador?
<Kit> 6Chii cracks up already.
<Chad`Winters> I don't. But apparently others do.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Why do you believe they would think so?
<Chad`Winters> One's a narcissistic sibling who enjoys to cause me annoyances. The others...6He shrugs. 1"You'd have to ask them."
<Kit> <Chii> There was someone else?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> His ego
<DeathStar> <Eve> As an ambassador, what do you think you could bring to the table?
<Xanatos> 6* Kane writes something while Eve asks.
<Kit> <Chii> Ebony. He could bring Ebony to the table.
<Chad`Winters> Besides my charming demeanor? I think of what's the best for the whole instead of what's best for the individual.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve nods, jotting it down.
<Xanatos> <Kane> That's an admiral quality indeed. However, being an Ambassador means often keeping your cool in intense debates. Do you believe you could achieve this?
<Kit> <Chii> Whether we like it or not.
<Chad`Winters> Most likely, yes.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Is that so? The point of the event earlier was to test your level of patience, it seemed you were on thin ice. Is there a reason for this?
* Chad`Winters tilts his head slightly at Kane. 1"I was agitated because something didn't seem right about this all. Which clearly means I can still discern things that are off. A quality probalby useful in debates.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Except for showing your agitation might show your hand to another ambassador, wouldn't it?
<Xanatos> <Kane> Ms. Summers has a point.
<Chad`Winters> Which is a valid point, if there other ambassadors around. Instead we were in the Executive building..
<Chad`Winters> NRP: were
<Xanatos> <Kane> Being a representative of Earth you would be required to keep calm in all situations. You are accountable for our entire planet, a model of what it is to be a citizen.
<Kit> <Chii> They should pick Freyja.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... Freyja?
* Chad`Winters just nods, clearly waiting for more from him
<Kit> <Chii> She's technically one of the oldest earthlings I know, and look what it takes to piss her off. If we're talking about showing off an image of a happy 'citizen...'
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> She'd sell Earth to the Cartel.
<Kit> <Chii> I doubt it, but fact remains she did run off with the cartel lady.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Meaning, no matter the location, no matter the situation, one should always be able to keep themselves in a calm and cool demeanor. Do you believe you could achieve this?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> The Cartel woman would fuck Earth out of her pockets.
* Chad`Winters leans forward now, his hands resting on the table. 1"You're running for vice president alongside Alex, correct?
<Xanatos> <Kane> Indeed.
<Kit> 6Chii makes a face, peering to the side. 1"Are you thinking of Freyja or... me?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Well, from what I've heard, Freyja is pretty kinky like you
<Chad`Winters> And do you believe you could maintain the same composure that you described no matter the situation?
<Kit> <Chii> If you get her out of the priestess kimono it wouldn't surprise me. I was made from her, after all.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Infact, CHIP offered to sell me videos of her and Iceheart.
<Kit> <Chii> Where do people hear about this stuff, anyway..?" 6She looks perplexed.
<Xanatos> <Kane> I've done so on numerous occasions. Let's take Jennifer as an example. You know her very well I am sure and you are aware of the situation. Yet I kept my cool and did the right thing I believe.
<Kit> <Chii> ...CHIP. I'll tear out his AI chip..
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> He made a good price. I was tempted to give it to you as a Christmas gift.
<Kit> <Chii> Surprised you didn't keep it for yourself. We're twins, anyway.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl just smiles
<Chad`Winters> You choose someone that you're not emotionally attached to. A common practice when you want to assert something. But let's take someone that you have an emotional attachment too. Lemon, perhaps.
<Kit> <Chii> ...You did!?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh, look at the time, I got an interview to do
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl turns to go
<Kit> <Chii> Cherry! Cherry? Cherry!!!
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl exits
<Xanatos> <Kane> Very well. What about her?
<Kit> 6Chii scrambles to chase her.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve studies the two
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks quickly to an elevator
* Chad`Winters cups his hands together, that look in his eyes. 1"Do you believe you could maintain yourself composure if she was involved in something?"
<Chad`Winters> NRP: -self
<Xanatos> <Kane> As I stated before, I have on many occassions. 6He notes.
<Kit> 6Chii springs after her, pouncing.
<Kit> <Chii> You won't get away so easily!
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl grunts, falling into the elevator with Chii
<Chad`Winters> So if somebody gave you the choice of her or your career, you'd choose your career?
<Kit> 6Chii scowls, shifting to try and pin her.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl narrows her eyes at Chii.
<Kit> 6Chii smiles sweetly. 1"Now, if you'll just..."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Just...? 6* She narrows her eyes
<Kit> <Chii> ..." 6She pauses as the elevator starts moving, then reaches over and hits the manual stop. 1"Change of plans. You have 'that' right?"
<Xanatos> <Kane> I see how that pertains to the question. You simply are talking about composure to situations, somethign I'm very capable of doing, however when it comes to choosing something over another, that is not simply something that can be handled in the matter of moments, not properly at least.
<Xanatos> NRP: I don't see
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She eyes Chii, then mumbles about Wind putting them at the same strength level
<Kit> 6Chii looks cute. 1"Better be fast."
* Chad`Winters leans back now. 1"You stated that every situation, every moment as an ambassador is being watched, judged, critiqued. In regards, that means no choice you make will be without fault in one way or another."
<Xanatos> <Kane> Hmm. You are correct in that. It is certainly not such an easy task. I am sure that if I would have to make such a choice, it would be something I definitely would not do lightly.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Military Base
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon pretends to be Cheryl so Dias and Cole don't run wild through the base. She sits in the office, in uniform, eyeing notes
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias holds out a crudely drawn plan for something clearly exciting yet potentially dangerous to Cole.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole pokes his head into the office, peering around.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias waves it infront of his face.
<DeathStar> 6* In the office is Peter Sullivan, and Blue the secretary.
<DeathStar> 6* The door to Cheryl's part ofthe office is closed as Lemon tries to bide time for Cheryl to return
<Xanatos> 6* Cole smacks it away, holding a finger over his lips as he watches Blue.
<Jennifer> * Peter looks up as Cole and Dias enter, a thin man, dressed in a fresh uniform with his short mess of red/brown hair combed back, he frowns at the two.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias puffs his cheeks and he puts it in his pocket. 1"Hey Blue, Cole thinks your hot and would like to take you out on a date. Somewhere nice.
<DeathStar> 6* Blue glances up sloly
<Ariel> 6* Raquel idly reads over a datapad as she watches over Dias and Cole from the hall. Having designated herself the responsible adult, in case something goes wrong.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slides past Cole and sits on the edge of Blue's desk. 1"Italian perhaps?"
<Xanatos> <Cole> ... 6He puts a hand to his face.
<Kit> 6Key peers around Cole curiously.
<DeathStar> <Blue> ... 6* She peers at Dias, then at her notes Cheryl wrote her. 'Believe nothing Dias says'.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Not italian...Hmmm. 6He taps his chin. 1"Chinese perhaps?"
<Kit> 6Key giggles. 1"Key want try!"
<Jennifer> * Peter quickly taps the sign of the cross over himself as a sort of blessing to protect him from these strange people.
<DeathStar> <Blue> Unless there is a reason for you two to be here, you need to go. 6* She notes disapprovingly to Dias and Cole
<Xanatos> <Cole> ...sorry Blue. 6He slumps and begins to walk away, sad music playing.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias looks at Cole walk off to the Sad hulk music then look at Blue. 1"You made my main man's feelings sad.
<DeathStar> 6* Blue stares at Dias impassively, as if waiting for him to Hulk it out, too
<Jennifer> Peter> "...Is this... remotely normal?"
<Kit> 6Key slips around Cole and moves to sit on the other side of the desk like Dias, smiling at Blue. 1"Hi! Cole think Blue the 'one' and have nice rack! Maybe like cheeseburger with!?"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Poor man. 6He hops off the desk. 1"You should join us in the messhall sometime, Blue. Get to know us all.
<DeathStar> 6* Blue stares at Key in complete disbelef
<Jennifer> * Peter just stares at Key now.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel sighs, "Normal for these two.... er, three." 6She bows her head appologetically.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Oh she's just eccentric. 6He quickly throws her over his shoulder and moves for the exit
<Kit> <Key> Nice ass and hair colour." 6She blinks. 1"Side of fries?" 6She flails at Dias. 1"Let go! Key be love goddess for Cole!"
<Jennifer> Peter> "Lord have mercy."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias quickly moves down the hallway. 1"You're going to blow it for Cole being so blunt like that, Key.
<Kit> <Key> Am not!" 6She puffs cheeks. 1"Truth good thing!"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Oh it is, but you gotta be smooth about it.
<Kit> <Key> Smoothtalk make Blue think tool.
<Jennifer> Peter> "You put up with this normally Miss?" *he looks at Blue now*
<Xanatos> 6* Cole has made it into his room to emo.
<Kit> 6Key behs, sticking her tongue out at Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* Blue gives Peter a look now
<Ariel> 6* Raquel looks to Peter and Blue, "Excuse me." 6She hurries after the others.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias beh's her back and sticks his tongue out. He stops infront of Cole's room, Key still over his shoulder. 1"I bet he's all depressed and emoing in there.
<Jennifer> * Peter sits back and puts his arms behind his head. "You've got to be a saint."
<Kit> <Key> Not when Bluegirl have cheeseburger with and sit on lap!
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Not all women are like that, KEy.
<Kit> <Key> No fun.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Most require you to go on several dates and get to know before they'll sit on your lap. The ones that sit on your lap right away, are either easy, looking for attention or strippers, which costs 20 credits a lap dance.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole opens his door quickly and punches Dias in the stomach, then closes it back.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel peeks over, "You know that from experience, Dia-" 6She winces at the punch.
<DeathStar> <Blue> Drop the religious talk already, it was old three lines ago
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hurks and keels over, Key fallign ontop of him
<Jennifer> * Peter eyes her back and frowns a bit. "Sure."
<Xanatos> 6* Cole opens the door again and points down. 1I DON'T NEED YOUR HELP! 6he slams the door again.
<Kit> 6Key sits on Dias, sniffling. 1"Cole not want Key help?"
<Xanatos> 6* Cole opens it again. 1I appreciate it and everything, but no. I have to do it myself. Alright? 6He goes to shut the door again but realizes it lost it's point.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Cole not want Dias help. 6He mumbles, his face against the floor
<Kit> 6Key sniffs more, rubbing her eyes but nods.
<Xanatos> <Cole> I definitely don't want your help. You're about as smooth as a barbed wire fence.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl and Chii enter the office, with Chii's hair all messed up. She eyes Peter, then the time, then waves him into her office, stepping in. Lemon peers up
<Kit> <Key> K-Key just tell truth. Ugu..
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias fumbles behind his back then sighs. 1"I'd show you my black book to prove you otherwise but I can't access it.
<Jennifer> * Peter hops up and follows her into the office.
<Kit> <Chii> I didn't mean that fast... ugh.
<Xanatos> <Cole> Then obviously you have a book full of stupid girls. And I don't want a stupid girl.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel hugs Key, "We know you did your best, Key."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl waves Lemon out, who nods, moving out and bowing at Peter, grabbing Chii and dragging her along
<Chad`Winters> Bimbo's were fun. Atleast until I met X. Now I'm happy.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Did Kane seem happy?!
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sits at her desk.
<Kit> <Chii> L-Lemon..?" 6She blinks awkwardly as she's dragged. 1"OH-- w-well he seemed like Kane."
<Chad`Winters> NRP: dias
<Jennifer> * Peter gives her a little nod, not looking too shocked now at seeing a doppleganger, he stands in front of the desk formally.
<Xanatos> <Cole> To each their own, just let me handle myself. Got it?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Why should you work here?
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Oh! Did you give him the pie I made?
<Kit> 6Key sniffles, nodding again, then hugs Raquel.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon pauses at the party at Cole's door, peering in. "What's going on?"
<Kit> <Chii> His secretary took it from me.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias pushes his to pointer fingers together. 1"I-I just wanted to see you happy with someone." 6He slowly rises, a sad look on his face.
<Xanatos> <Cole> Nothing Lem. Nice imitation of Cheryl by the way. You're getting better and better.
<Jennifer> Peter> "I'm here just to do that ma'am, work. I'll follow your orders and do what needs to be done."
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon beams.
<Ariel> Raquel> "You know that you're still his friend, right? He doesn't dislike you."
<Xanatos> 6* Cole smacks the side of Dias for his reponse, patting it.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She gives a negative mark next to the answer, not bothering to hide it
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias jerks from it, then looks at Cole with a confused look
<Jennifer> * Peter doesn't seem to react.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> What qualifies you to work on this unit?
<Xanatos> <Cole> I'm a big boy. I can handle myself. I've probably been through more actual relationships than the highest number you can count.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Are Dias and Cole fighting?
<Kit> <Key> No.
<Xanatos> <Cole> If we were fighting he'd be on the ground crying. 6He winks.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Depends, how many is that?
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias narrows his eyes, and rolls up his sleeves now
<Kit> 6Key pauses at Dias' question and wiggles her fingers and toes at Cole.
<Jennifer> Peter> "Not sure ma'am, I asked for an assignment and I got sent here. I'm used to less... proper teams, which may be the reason."
<Xanatos> <Cole> Start counting and I"ll tell you when to stop.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And why did you ask to be assign here?
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon hugs Chii close. "Who wants to clean with me?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias goes to count then jerks to look at Lemon. 1"Count me in."
<Jennifer> Peter> "Said I got sent here ma'am. I asked for honest work, wasn't afraid to get my hands dirty as long as it was for a good cause."
<Kit> <Key> I will!
<Xanatos> <Cole> It depends on if Key wants her driving lessons now or later.
<Xanatos> <Cole> Sounds like later!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You see, Peter, you don't ask for an assignment and get signed here. It's not how this unit works
<Kit> 6Key jerks, eyeing Cole, then looks sulky.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> So, I want to know the truth
<Kit> <Key> Promise!?
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Oh, Lemon wants to drive! 6* She immediately moves for the cars with Chii
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Is driving like piloting?
<Xanatos> 6* Cole pauses then gives Key a smile and moves after her.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves after Cole
<Xanatos> <Cole> I meant the new motorcycle, but this works, I guess.
<Kit> 6Key blinks, then follows the group. Chii stares as she's dragged more. 1"...Do you even know how, Lem?"
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Nope!
<Kit> <Chii> U-Uh..
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I can teach you. You all saw how awesome I drove when we chased that teleporter beam
<Xanatos> <Cole> IF we crash something, I'm totally not at fault.
<Jennifer> Peter> "I used to work for the mob, Ma'am. I was a tough, I guarded who I was told or what I was told and that's how I lived life. My 'family' as it were, it's been written out. I signed up and wanted a challenge. Here I am."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> So you were a gangsta.
<Jennifer> Peter> "If you prefer that term."
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon pauses at all the vehicles, then promptly picks the Corvette Cheryl bought for herserlf, using her hand print to crank it up
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias whistles at it. 1"Now that is a sweet looking car
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And how does a gangsta manage to get into the military?
<Xanatos> <Cole> OH god this is going to end badly.
<Jennifer> Peter> "A recruiting office, Ma'am. That and I kept my hands and nose clean."
<Kit> <Key> Want lessons! Cole promise!
<Xanatos> <Cole> How about I take us to a wide open spot so everyone can practice?
<Kit> <Chii> ...Well as long as Lemon's driving.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> That sounds fun! 6* She makes Chii sit on her lap
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Everyone in!
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I call driver. 6He scrambles to take the drivers seat if it's not taken
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon is in it
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias quickly takes shotgun
<Xanatos> 6* Cole shakes his head. 1No. Dias, you will crash it for sure. Lemon, let me drive, please.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel hesitantly gets in the vehicle, "...this is stupid... why am I doing this..."
<DeathStar> <Lemon> But--
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Because Raquel my dear. Stupid is fun. And we all need some fun right now.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> The guns will shoot anyone driving who doesn't look like Cheryl
<Kit> <Chii> Even me!?
<DeathStar> <Lemon> I don't know.
<Xanatos> <Cole> ...well maybe we should take another car?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...If it'll shoot anyone besides her then why are taking it?
<DeathStar> <Lemon> But---Cheryl said this was the best
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Peter, then down at her paperwork. "I don't know if you're qualified, Sullivan."
<Kit> 6Key stays outsid the corvette, sensing imminent death.
<Ariel> Raquel> "I just hope... this isn't my last." 6Smiles nervously.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> I can drive. 6* She gives Cole her best 'believe in me look'. And Key.
<Jennifer> * Peter looks back at her, "That's your decision Ma'am. I'll work as hard as I need to, to bring myself up to your standards though."
<Xanatos> <Cole> .... 6He lets out a breath and hops into the back, pulling Raquel onto his lap.
<Kit> 6Key hops in without hesitation
<Xanatos> <Cole> Now Lemon, take it easy, we're not in any races here, alright?
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon peers down, hits the gas pedal, and sends them zooming down the tunnel at high speeds, just pushing it down
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> WOOOOOOOOO!!!
<Xanatos> <Cole> NOT ALL THE WAY DOOOOWWWWN! 6He's glad he has his raquel sized airbag.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> SORRRRYYYYYYY! 6* She lets up off the gas and the car slows
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias jerks back to look at the burnout. 1"That was a 10 out of 10 for burn outs!
<Ariel> 6* Raquel says her last prayers
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl pauses as her alarms go off, peering at the monitors deadpanned as the car can be seen speeding
<Jennifer> * Peter raises a brow.
<Xanatos> <Cole> You see the numbers in front of you? The ones that go from 0 to 200 somthing?
<DeathStar> 6* The hidden passage at the end opens up to reveal the subway tracks as the car shoots over the tracks onto a ramp that leads them up to the streets. Lemon stares straight ahead as they drive across the street, cars honking. "How do I turn again?!"
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> With the steering wheel.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... Lemon.
<Xanatos> <Cole> OH god, the wheel. The wheeeeeel.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon take the wheel, rotating it back and forth, making the car swerve about
<Kit> <Chii> OHMYGODIMGONNADIE!
<Jennifer> * Peter just stands there, a bit unsure of what to do.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias jerks from side to side from the swerving, clearly having a good time
<Xanatos> <Cole> Well Raquel, I think I should give you your first kiss before you die.
<Kit> 6Key claps her hands, giggling
<Ariel> Raquel> "...I... I've been kissed before!"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Fine. You're on. Fuck it. I don't care. 6* She walks out of the office on Peter.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon turns it sharply left, making them do circles as other cars honk at them
<Xanatos> <Cole> M-Maybe I haven't?
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slams into the door, laughing the entire time.
<Jennifer> * Peter scratches his head and shrugs a bit, reminding himself to thank this Lemon later. He steps out after her.
<Xanatos> <Cole> LEMON. BRAKE.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon pauses, hitting what she thinks is breaks, and sending them into a sharp stop
<Xanatos> 6* Cole holds his arms forward against the backseat, trying to keep from squishing raquel.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias peers around then goes wided eyed. 1"Gas. HIT THE GAS BEFORE WE'RE HIT!"
<Ariel> 6* Raquel holds on for dear life, letting out an EEEK.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon hits the gas, zooming ahead down the street again
<Xanatos> <Cole> God we're so dead.
<Kit> <Lemon> Awwwwesome!
<Xanatos> <Cole> And I don't mean the crashing dead either. I mean Cheryl's going to fucking kill us.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Damn right! 6He goes to high five Lemon
<Kit> <Chii> You can go in between! IT DOESN'T ALWAYS HAVE TO BE ON OR OFF, LEM!"
<DeathStar> <Lemon> O-Oh!
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon slows them down to 80 as she zooms down the streets, approaching cars rapidly
<Xanatos> <Cole> LOOK OUT!!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias points at a sign. 1"Lemon, those signs tell you waht the speed limit is.
<Kit> <Chii> The white square signs with numbers are the speed limit!
<Jennifer> * Peter grabs his stuff and looks around the outer office again. "So... I guess I get myself a room then."
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Ohhhh! 6* She slows to 35.
<DeathStar> <Blue> ... 6* She hands him a card key with a Room #.
<DeathStar> 6* Then runs a red light
<Xanatos> 6* Cole smacks his face.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Red lights mean stop.
<Jennifer> * Peter takes it and nods to her. "Thanks Miss."
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Green means go, yellow means speed up.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon jerks to a stop in the middle of the street, cars incoming
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Before the crosswalk! Go GO GO!
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon hits the gas again, sending them ahead again
<Kit> <Chii> Green meens keep going, yellow warns it's about to be red, red means stop before the cross road!
<Ariel> 6* Raquel tries to remember that posistion they teach you to protect yourself in crashes
<Jennifer> * Peter pockets the card, shoulders his small bag and heads out for his room.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon makes a whine sign, still in uniform; some people take photos as they go by
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> We should goto a water park!
<Xanatos> <Cole> Red octagon signs with stop on it mean you must come to a complete stop before continuing on.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon drives ahead, then sees a park, going ooo, and drives right onto the green grass
<Kit> <Chii> Go back to the base!!
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias peers out the window now as they drive through the park. 1"Man I've never gotten to drive drive through a park yet.
<Kit> 6Key presses against a window, going ahhh at stuff they run over/past.
<Xanatos> <Cole> No. Just stop, Stop! We'll get someone to come get us.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks around in fascination, then sees a lake ahead, driving for it. "I'll stop in the lake!"
<Kit> <Chii> NO!!
<Xanatos> <Cole> LEMON STOP THE DAMN CAR NOW>
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> The car can go underwtaer?
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon stops the car at the pond, pouting sadly. "I just wanted to touch the water..."
<Xanatos> <Cole> Everyone out. Let's go. Get out. 6He motions.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Then let's go outside and touch it. 6He peer at Lemon with a look of interest
<Kit> <Chii> Use your hand outside the car!
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon gets out, her head hanging down as Cole says that, like a scolded dog
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias quickly open the door and gets out. He pulls his shirt off and tosses it onto the hood. He then drops his pants, revealing his swimming trunks
<Xanatos> 6* Cole climb out and sets Raquel down, letting out a sigh before lifting up his comm to page Cheryl.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: EB
<DeathStar> 6* Eve, Kane, and Chad walk, the interview over, and pass a window that overlooks a park where a corvette can be seen driving through it.
* Chad`Winters pauses, then stops and looks out the window, an eyebrow raised
<Xanatos> 6* Kane takes a second to pause, peering down slightly with an odd look.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Well, you were the last interview for the day, so... 6* She peers out
<Xanatos> <Kane> That is certainly something you do not see everyday.
<DeathStar> <Eve> That looks like Cheryl. 6* She squints as one guy leaps in the lake afterwards
<Chad`Winters> I think that was Dias.
<Xanatos> <Kane> ...Hm. I don't recall Cheryl holding Chii like that, it's most likely Lemon. I wasn't aware she knew how to drive.
<Chad`Winters> By the looks of it, she still doesn't,
<DeathStar> <Eve> ... 6* She peers at police surrounding the park
<Xanatos> <Kane> Oh dear. I'm afraid this isn't going to go well.
* Chad`Winters scratches the side of his face at the police. 1"Depends on if you help them or not."
<Xanatos> <Kane> I can't abuse my power, not at such a pivotal time. 6He lifts up his datapad to contact Cheryl.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve sighs, moving to find Alexander
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl's voice goes "WHAT?"
<Chad`Winters> Lines aren't always that clear, Kane. Sometimes you just have to do what you can.
<Xanatos> <Kane> From your tone I imagine you already know the situation. 6He says to Cheryl. 1However if you're not, they're at the park, surrounded by police.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I know. 6* She signs off without more
<Xanatos> <Kane> Hmm. 6He gives Chad a nod and walks off, trying to find out the full details on his datapad.
* Chad`Winters rests his hands behind his back then moves off to try and catch up with Eve
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> 6* As Cole pages Cheryl, he gets a "WHERE IS MY CAR?"
<Ariel> 6* Raquel wavers, trying to regain her balance after the wild ride
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Lemon, last one in has to do my laundry. 6He turns and starts running for the water
<Xanatos> 6* Cole jerks and holds the datapad out away from him, as if she can get him through it. 1In the park..
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> The police are surrounding the park looking for a speeding Corvette. Destroy all identification on the car and escape undetected. That's an order
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias leaps into the body of water.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole jerks and nods. He tells everyone else, moving to rip the license plate off.
<Xanatos> <Cole> GET Dias out of the damn pond, we don't have much time.
<Ariel> Raquel> "W-what? Isn't that drastic...?"
<Kit> <Chii> Did she seriously just say that, Cole?
<Xanatos> <Cole> IF they trace us back to Cheryl's group we could fuck up Alexander's presidential run. This is serious. So yes.
<Kit> <Chii> Get the plates." 6She leans in, wiping down the steering wheel.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias resurfaces and swims to shore. 1"That was...What the hell's going on?"
<Xanatos> 6* Cole puts the plate into his pocket. 1Get out of there, we have to get out of here now. Undetected. It's surrounded by police.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel checks the glovebox for papers, using her sleeve to open it
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves back over to the others. 1"...Cole?"
<Xanatos> 6* Cole looks for the vin, and would file it down if he could. 1What, Dias?
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Why not just blow it up?
<Kit> <Chii> ..." 6She eyes Dias. 1"Get. The fuck out . Of the water!"
<Xanatos> <Cole> Too messy, get all the identification and the push it into the water.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias is out of the water
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> ...Yeah that'll work. 6He points out to Cole where the serial numbers are
<Kit> 6Chii bumps it into neutral. 1"Push!"
<Xanatos> 6* Lemon stands there looking ashamed from causing so much trouble.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole make sure all the serial numbers are unreadable and would push it for the Lake.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias just pushes along, grabbing his clothes.
<Kit> 6Chii makes a break to escape early.
<Xanatos> <Cole> God Cheryl is going to fucking kill us. Dead. We're so dead. I mean...no pay for like a year.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> We get paid? 6He looks at Cole
<Ariel> Raquel> "...we'll be so lucky."
<Xanatos> <Cole> We're supposed too, yeah. 6He lets the car go into the lake, watching it sink then glances around. 1Alright, scatter, DON'T get caught.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel nods, and quickly vacates the premises
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias tosses his clothes on quickly then glacnes at Cole and shrugs, making his way out of hte park then
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon nods, turning and running away, still in uniform
<Xanatos> 6* Cole jerks. 1Lemon!
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon stops, peering back
<Kit> 6Chii is already gone!
<Xanatos> <Cole> The uniform, do you have anything else
<DeathStar> <LEmon> I-I have... ... Chii's favorite lingere on under it
<Xanatos> <Cole> ...is it decent?
<DeathStar> <Lemon> ... no
<Xanatos> <Cole> Damnit we can't let you be seen in that uniform.
<Xanatos> 6* He makes a face and then pauses, pulling off his coat. 1Here put this over the lingere.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon nods, pulling off her uniform, wearing what appears to be a black, dominatrix like lingere, that shows her nipples despite the lacy black, then puts the coat on
<Xanatos> 6* Cole takes the uniform and balls it up, then attempts to reduce it to something indistinguishable with his katar.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon hurries off now
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis eats a cupcake on the bridge; about to arrive is the Tsivrixsh ambassador. But she pauses when an EarthGov Diplomatic shuttle not scheduled comms.
<Kit> 6Megumi fidgets, not really looking forward to a tsivrixsh ambassador. Again. Then blinks
<Kit> <Megumi> I do not recall earth even electing..
<DeathStar> <Erevis> They have not.
<Kit> <Megumi> We should summon security to be prepared.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis notifies Xanatos.
<DeathStar> 6* Aya answers the comm. Han Tucker's face appears. "Hello. I am requesting permission to dock."
<Xanatos> 6* A few seconds pass and Xanatos appears on the teleporter, moving forward. He eyes Han Tucker, then has SPoC get a team ready, just in case.
<Kit> <Megumi> Who is he?
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC does so and moves onto the teleporter hitting the hanger
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Mr. Tucker?
<DeathStar> <Aya> He was Alexander's Vice President
<DeathStar> <Tucker> Yes.
<Chad`Winters> 6Or doesn't, she just gets a team ready incase.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> May I ask what your business on the PAX is, sir?
<DeathStar> <Tucker> I wasn't aware people had to list reasons to visit a neutral station 'open to everyone'.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I'm simply inquiring incase I need to ready anyone of your arrival. That's all.
<DeathStar> <Tucker> I am just here to see the future of peace to our galaxy.
<DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh DIplomatic Ship arrives, approaching the ship and hailing
<Kit> <Megumi> How rude, it was designated a diplomatic vessel. Obviously we would expect a diplomat on board..." 6She mumbles.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I'm sending the hanger number to you now. 6He sends it to Han.
<Jennifer> * Leyaeh looks over at SPoC, all ready to go.
<Kit> <Megumi> On second though, I will go greet the Tsivrixsh." 6She hrmphs, heading for the telepad.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos answers the Tsiv hail.
<DeathStar> 6* A familiar face appears - to some. It looks a bit like Xevil's face. Erevis jerks, dropping the cupcake, staring at the Tsivrixsh's face before realizing it's not QUITE his face
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh> I am the Tsivrixsh Ambassador.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos notifies SPoC to be Han's guide.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Greetings, I'm Xanatos Durran. I must confess you look familiar, have we met?
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC stands up. 1"Leyaeh. You will accompany me." 6She moves for the teleporter.
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh> I am Kyun.
<Jennifer> * Leyaeh nods and moves after her dutifully.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC hits the hanger area that Hans was designated to then moves over and waits for the ship to land.
<DeathStar> 6* Tucker's vessel lands, and he steps out with his bodyguards
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Hm. I must be mistaken, at any rate we have your hanger ready and will have someone to welcome you. Please proceed.
<Jennifer> * Leyaeh walks with her, crossing her arms and watching Tucker.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC bows slightly. 1"Welcome to the PAX."
<DeathStar> 6* Kyun nods, cutting the transmission. Erevis stares at the blank screen, frowning still, her fingers gripping the arm rest.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> If my data is correct, wasn't Kyun an enemy of Cheryl's team?
<DeathStar> 6* Tucker nods to SPoC, simply moving for the nearest teleporter.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I believe so. Xevil's...son I think.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... Why is he here.
<Jennifer> * Leyaeh watches him, then looks to SPoC again.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I'll go. 6He notes after a second, moves for the teleporter, hitting that hanger.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC tilts her head slightly. 1"If you're body guards are armed, they are required to check in their equipment.
<Kit> 6Megumi brushes off her uniform's skirt, holding a digital clipboard under her left arm and adjusts her glasses, still waiting for the Tsivrixsh shuttle to land.
<DeathStar> <Tucker> Noted. 6* He and his guards get onto the teleporter pad, and he taps a button, moving to the public areas.
<DeathStar> 6* The vessel lands a bit later and two bodyguards step out, as does Kyun, who marches down the ramp.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC frowns slightly then reports to Xanatos about Tucker and his actions.
<Jennifer> Leyaeh> "Seems shady to me."
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos moves up beside Megumi. He checks his datapad and replies that she should keep track of him on the monitors.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> These are things that are best kept yourself until one is in a private area.
<Jennifer> Leyaeh> "Oh, right." *she flicks an ear*
<Kit> 6Megumi bows, practiced at this point, before righting herself, casually beginning. 1"Welcome to the renewed PAX station for neutral discussion. I will--" 6She jerks, her eyes widening and irises narrowing. 1"..Xevil..!"
<DeathStar> 6* Kyun walks forward, eyeing Megumi over, as if taking note of her, not responding to her reaction other than a thin smile
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos puts a hand on Megumi's shoulder. 1No, it's not. 6He says calmly.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC looks over at her now. 1"I also recommend you do not stand so defensively. Every guest on this ship must be treated the same until they give us a reason to treat them otherwise.
<Jennifer> * Leyaeh blinks and looks down at herself, then slackens up. "Whoops, sorry ma'am, he makes me nervous."
<Kit> 6Megumi's definitely tense, seeing a she shares the good ol' memory of having her eye dug out and the likes, breathing in through her teeth, twitching.
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC makes her way to the teleporter and hits Security. 1"Chip, please keep a camera feed on Hans Tucker from Earth at all times.
<DeathStar> <Kyun> I take it you know a Xevil? I assure you I'm not him. My name is Kyun. 6* He reaches out to take her hand and bring it to his lips
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Will do!
<Jennifer> * Leyaeh moves over to a seat after SPoC gets them back, peering at the monitors.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> We've had run ins with him in the past. 6He explains.
<Kit> <Megumi> Kyun." 6She repeats, quivering but trying to relax. 1"If you will follow me, I will show you to the reserved quarters for your diplomatic entourage, then you will be free to go as you please about the station."
<DeathStar> <Kyun> Thank you. And how is your pretty wife? 6* He asks with a smile that isn't pleasant, despite it's appearance as such
<Kit> <Megumi> Well, though I might ask how you know of any wife of mine as I have not even introduced myself, much less her.
<DeathStar> <KYun> I have researched this station thoroughly so that I may not be ignorant of any facet of other cultures.
<DeathStar> <Kyun> I look forward to meeting the woman who runs the PAX. 6* He says in a Xevil like tone
<Kit> <Megumi> Prudent and wise." 6She nods, turning as she gestures to follow, giving Xanatos a look.
<DeathStar> 6* Tucker sits in a public area, being met by some other people, dressed fancy enough; all of them talking quietly
<Kit> <Megumi> Perhaps you will, though she is quite busy, sir. So please do not keep high hopes.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos has been eyeing him then steps aside.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Chip, you are recording their conversations correct?
<DeathStar> 6* Kyun cups his hands behind him, following Megumi, as does the guards.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> No. Erevis forbade me from doing so unless we suspect criminal activity, as it would compromise the PAX
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos moves along after them.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> And I do not recall how to read lips. 6She frowns slightly.
* Jennifer stands in medical, looking over one of the machines, studying it carefully.
<Kit> 6Megumi leads to the diplomatic corridors and then waves to a particular room. 1"It should recognize you."
<DeathStar> 6* Kyun bows, stepping up to the door. "I look forward to seeing you again soon, Mrs. Zhenmei
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> If you have any security related issues, let me know. 6He notes from his spot.
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> That is called a telescope.
<Kit> 6Megumi says nothing, bowing pollitely.
<DeathStar> 6 *Caduceus says it in a manner indicating Jennifer is dumb
<Xanatos> <Carter> Heh. He got you good on that one, girlie.
* Jennifer rubs the back of her head and looks at Cad, then Carter. "I-I know... I was just thinking about something, sorry."
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus motions at Marcus on the table, who is suffering from stomach pains Caduceus gave him by poisoning his food.
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Now finish diagonising the patient
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus squirms in pain, holding his stomach, sweating.
<DeathStar> 6* Kyun and his people enter the room
<DeathStar> 6* Tucker takes a folder from one of the people.
<DeathStar> 6* He rises, then moves off with his guards to the teleporter.
<Jennifer> "Upset stomach, increased percpiration... being it's Marcus I'd normally not make this my first guess..."
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Chip, can you zoom in on the folder?
<Kit> 6Megumi then returns to the bridge, still silent and keeping her head low.
<DeathStar> 6* CHIP begins to, but the folder is placed in a briefcase before he finishes.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis' eyes are closed, her head leaned forward. Her grip in the chair is making her fingernails crack
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos moves with her, keeping quiet as he thinks.
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> You recorded it all, correct?
<Xanatos> <Carter> It looks like a stomach bug.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Of course.
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> And how would you go about figuring out what is the source of the 'bug'?
<Jennifer> "Find out what he ate?"
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> On another monitor, please bring up the best shot of the folder then zoom in on it. 6She taps her comm to let Durran know what's going on with Hans
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus stares
<Xanatos> <Carter> Unless it's an actual bug. <Marcus> W-What?!
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos rubs his face slwoly and lets out a breath. 1It looks like this is going to be harder than we thought.
<DeathStar> 6* The folder is a vanilla with no identification
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Beloved.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not want him on this ship. 6* Her tone sounds near cracking
<Jennifer> "Well, tried any strange alien dishes lately?"
<Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Please compile a list of those who talked to him for Durran and I to review later.
<Xanatos> <Carter> IF it is a bug, we could do a scan to try and discover it.
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus just throws up his hands, walking off on them into his office, closing the door
<DeathStar> 6* He pauses, then eyes Carter
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> At least one of you will pass.
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus motions at the scanners.
<Kit> <Megumi> I do not either, but we do not have a choice.
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Begin
* Jennifer grabs a scanner and starts to go over Marcus with it.
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Turn it on first.
* Jennifer turns it on and scans.
<Xanatos> 6* Carter watches her, looking amused. 1If it's not the bug, we could check his blood to see if any of the usual markers are abnormal.
<DeathStar> 6* It begins to identify lots of various chemicles that don't add up to a bug.
<Jennifer> "Getting a lot of things, no bug though."
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus tosses his ball up and down
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She rises and moves to go down teh stairs. "I will prepare dinner."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> This idea just got a lot worse in my head today. 6He notes with a frown.
<Jennifer> "Would any of these result in his condition?"
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> You're the doctor, tell me what they add up to be. Be a doctor
<Kit> 6Megumi peers over at Xanatos finally, her left eye an odd violet colour rather than yellow.
<Jennifer> "R-Right..." *she looks over them and tries to add it all up*
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Don't worry about him, I'll keep an eye on him, okay?
<Xanatos> 6* Carter peers over and holds up a finger. 1Most of these are synthetic, not made by the body, it looks liek someone dosed him. I'm not sure what with, though.
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus points at Carter. "My star student."
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> You plug in the foreign chemicals into the computer, since you're both too stupid to knwo what the chemicals are, and see what it tells you. Go on. Input them
<DeathStar> 6* Caduceus waves his fingers
* Jennifer moves over and inputs the chemicals.
<Xanatos> 6* Carter lets Jennifer, arms crossed.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus jerks and eyes Caduceus, finally realizing how he got sick.
<DeathStar> 6* It comes out as a mild poison used to give people massive diarhea. At that moment, Marcus would feel the need to crap.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Y-You son of a bitch! 6He runs for the bathroom.
<DeathStar> <CAduceus> Suck it up, I needed a test subject and no one else was sick
<DeathStar> 6* Tucker moves to the Tsivrixsh quarters and enters Kyun's room, the door shutting
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC tilts her head at that.
<Xanatos> <Carter> This was fun. 6he notes with a chipper expression.
<DeathStar> <Caduceus> Lessons over today. 6* He enters his office
<Chad`Winters> 6SPoC reaches over and taps her comm. 1"Durran. It would appear that Tucker is talking with the Tsiv. Ambassador."
* Jennifer rubs the back of her head. "I'll get him the proper meds when he emerges..."
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos rubs the back of his neck. 1Alright. Just keep an eye on them SPoC. 6He says into the comm.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus makes god awful sounds of pain and shitting.
<Xanatos> 6* Carter gives a thumbs up to Jen and strolls out, putting his hands in his pockets.
<Kit> 6Megumi moves over to sit on Erevis' lap and hug her.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis jerks, having moved all the way to the house to sulk in the bedroom
<Chad`Winters> <SPoCComm> Understood sir.
* Jennifer uses the computer to determine the right medication for Marcus and gets it, waiting for him. "You alright in there Mr. Jones?"
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin lurks in the Zhenmei house, trying to find the perfect person to scare.
<DeathStar> 6* She pauses, though, hugging Megumi
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus replies with a gross shitting sound.
<Xanatos> 6* Drasek sits in his chair, drinking a beer, tuning his guitar with the other hand.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora walks through the garden, her hands resting behind her back.
<Jennifer> "The glamourous life of a doctor." *she sighs*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I fear for the future if that being is anything like Xevil
<Xanatos> 6* Theron stands out by the pond, going through stances with his katana.
<DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: The Military Base
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl paces in front of the team, eyeing Lemon especially. "That car cost me a lot."
<Kit> <Chii> I-- I'm not really part of the team.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias jerks at Chii. 1"Way to be our friend."
<Xanatos> 6* Cole keeps his eyes on the ground.
<Jennifer> * Peter watches her. Then looks at the others.
<Kit> <Chii> What?! It's true!
<Kit> 6Key stares blankly, mimicing stiff stance.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl jerks a finger at them. "I should take your pay for next month. In fact, I am."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hrmpfs, crossing his arms.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You're lucky your food is free as is the rooms.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole winces.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon hangs her head more, feeling more guilty.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Fair enough.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl turns as Alexander steps in with Eve, and Kane and Chad. He takes a quiet seat. Cheryl twitches.
<Kit> <Chii> ...Do I even get pay?
* Chad`Winters just waves at Cheryl, a grin on his face
<Xanatos> <Cole> B-Boss just take it out on me, I was the one that suggested driving lessons and it got out of hand, Lemon didn't mean too.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And I better somehow get my car back and it be in fucking prestine condition, even if you have to find some shady way of getting it out of the fucking police compound.
<Jennifer> * Peter looks over at the company and stares a little in surprise.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias elbows Cole. 1"We all stand together on this one."
<Chad`Winters> 6He then perks up at the shady part.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane stands off to the side, arms behind his back, he frowns slightly.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon peers at Cole, as if thankful, but jerks at Cheryl's stare, then waves a hand. "Just go." 6* Cheryl orders.
<DeathStar> *Who then
<Kit> <Chii> I'm still confused-- I get paid?
<Xanatos> 6* Cole slumps and walks off quickly, rubbing shoulder slightly.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> So I found some new stickers to make our carts go faster. 6He hops on Cole's back
<DeathStar> <Cherly> You get no sex for a week
<Ariel> Raquel> "You... you're approving raiding..." *stares in disbelief, before shaking her head and stepping out*
<Kit> 6Key looks equally confused, but sort of ambles after Cole.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon hagns her head, moving to the kitchen to make food.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole jerks and eyes Dias. 1Not now, jesus.
<DeathStar> 6* Blue sips some coffee, having come to watch the chewing out
<Kit> <Chii> What?! No!
<Jennifer> * Peter rubs the back of his head and walks out after the others.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Why not?
<Kit> 6Key pauses, eyeing Blue. She points at Cole and makes a sort of Fonzesque pose at her.
<DeathStar> <Alexander> I see you're having a fine second month, Cheryl
<Xanatos> <Cole> Sometime you have to grow the fuck up. 6he moves off for his room.
<Chad`Winters> It's because they have nothing to do.
<Kit> 6Chii clamps onto Cheryl's leg, sniffling.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl moves over to eye Chad and the others, deadpanned. Ignoring Chii.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Oh, let me go start a galactic war for them to fight
<Xanatos> <Kane> It's lucky that they were able to escape.
<DeathStar> 6* Blue stares at Key
<Chad`Winters> Find something constructive for them to channel their energy into.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I did. Getting my car back
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias drops off Cole's back at that, he hrmpfs and moves off.
<Chad`Winters> You're honestly going to tell me, this is really about the car?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ...
<Kit> <Chii> It'd be easy for me. But if I do it, you're screwing me three times a day." 6She sniffs.
<DeathStar> 6* Alexander leans back, amused
<Jennifer> * Peter watches Cole and Dias go seperate ways. "Hmm..."
<Xanatos> <Kane> If you'll excuse me. 6He bows slightly and moves to check on Lemon.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And if you fail, you get no sex until after you give birth to a rugrat.
<Kit> <Chii> You have to screw me for me to have one!
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You can do it yourself.
<Kit> <Chii> I refuse!
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl pauses as she eyes her datapad beeping, scrolling the information. Eve stays out of it, but seems to be amused like Cran
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon begins to get a pot ready to boil, ordering the staff what todo
<Ariel> 6* Raquel heads to the kitchen, and starts to help Lemon unless she objects. Something to keep her hands busy will be distracting.
* Chad`Winters rests his hands behind the back of his neck, not hiding his amused look.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole opens his window and sits on the sill, strumming his guitar like the emo kids in the music videos.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane steps into the back and peers left and then right. 1Hello Lemon.
<Jennifer> * Peter makes his way to the mess hall and takes a seat.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole just plays in his room, since he's not paying for a mansion room.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Hi, Kane.
<Chad`Winters> Two months on the job and you look like you're ready to pull hair.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Shit. 6* She hits a button to sound some alarms.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Are you doing oka-6He pauses to glances up.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets her comm to order people to the vehicles.
<Kit> <Chii> Wh-What?!
* Chad`Winters tenses at that, his brow raising.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias peers up then moves for the vehicles
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> There's been an explosion. AT X's apartment residence. I had it marked in case anything happened.
<Kit> <Key> What's that noise?
<Xanatos> 6* Cole jerks and drops his guitar, jumping up to move for the vehicles.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl turns to move for the vehicles. Cran frowns
<Chad`Winters> That's not good. 6He looks at her with worry.
<Jennifer> * Peter looks up, shrugs, and goes to grab his weapons. He then moves for the vehicles.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane steps out of the kitchen, peering around with a look of confusion.
<Kit> 6Chii goes along for the ride on her leg.
<DeathStar> <Eve> ... 6* She grabs her own datapad to begin looking into it. Lemon peers out, watching them all hurry off.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets into the van, cranking it up.
* Chad`Winters looks over Eve's shoulder.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole hops into the passenger's seat.
<Xanatos> <Kane> What's going on?
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves into the van. 1"What's going on?""
<Kit> 6Key creepily appears in Cheryl's driver window.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She eyes Dias, then ahead. "Checking out an explosion."
<Jennifer> * Peter gets in.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Well let's get moving then!
<Kit> 6Key pauses, then follows Peter inside the van
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl begins to drive down the tunnel
<DeathStar> 6* Eve tells Kane as the camera focuses on the van
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl drives down the streets, heading along Mega City.
<Xanatos> <Cole> Where's the explosion at?
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias peers out the window at everything.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She doesn't respond to Cole, keeping one eye on the datapad.
<DeathStar> 6* As they move along, up ahead in the skyline, they can see smoke rising from ahead.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole leans forward, squinting.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias peers ahead now. 1"That's where it is?"
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yes.
<Kit> <Key> ...Familiar.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> I wonder if X heard it.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets closer and they can see an entire apartment building gone. Nothing but rubble, the entire thing taken out.
<Jennifer> Peter> "Damn... some serious demolition."
<Xanatos> <Cole> She'd have too at this dis-6He pauses and peers around carefully.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias suddenly freezes, his eyes going wide. He quickly grabs the van door and throws it open.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stops the van at the police perimeter, getting out now.
<Xanatos> <Cole> Oh my god, this isn't?
<Kit> <Key> ..." 6Her face pales and she rushes out as Dias opens the door
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias hops out as it comes to a stop and he makes a dash for it.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole gets out, peering ahead with a frown, his puts his hands on the sidese of his head at the top, staring at the destruction.
<Jennifer> * Peter gets out, looking over the rubble. "What the heck could do this?"
<Kit> <Chii> ..." 6She's quiet, staying with Cheryl.
<Kit> <Chii> Why X's place..?
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias pushes past the cops, not letting them stop him as he me moves for the building itself
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... a bomb. 6* She tells Peter like he's stupid
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl shows the cops the identification before htey shoot Dias, and begins to talk to them
<Xanatos> 6* Cole frowns and moves after Dias, peering around carefully for anyone suspicious.
<Jennifer> * Peter rolls frowns a little and watches Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* There's a lot of dust in the air from the building, but the building itself is completely gone; people are trying to pick through the rubble, and a few dead bodies can be seen, badly burned.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves through the rubble himself, his eyes quickly checking over any dead bodies he can find
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> Come on X, be ok...Be ok.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rubs her face at the information she's getting, peering over at Dias.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias moves in a panic, moving rubble that he can as he tries to find her
<Jennifer> * Peter grumbles and moves over to start helping Dias with rubble.
<DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
<DeathStar> 6* Late evening. Hours have passed, and it's clear it'll take days to go through everything and identify the bodies - there's definitely no survivors. Cheryl sits at the van beside Dias, having forced him to stop after scans showed no life.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon quietly is there, with some food, unsure what to do
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It's possible she wasn't even in the building. We'll need time to figure that out
<Jennifer> * Peter sits nearby, head bowed, he's praying for the dead.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole stands off to the side with arms crossed, waiting for Cypher to return from the mission he cave him.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias sits there, his eyes staring at the ground, having not said anything since she forced him to stop looking.
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher woos the girls in the security systems of other buildings
<Kit> 6Key sits crosslegged near the van, doll-like again.
<Chad`Winters> <Dias> It's my fault, I should've been here.
<DeathStar> 6* One person calls out they found another dead body. They pull up a skeleton with a locket of purple hair
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> X wanted space. It wasn't your fault.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole slowly glances over and makes a face, peering down.
<Ariel> 6* Raquel sticks with Dias, seeming completely broken herself.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane stands by Lemon, having directed Cran to send anything that he needs done to his datapad.
<Jennifer> * Peter looks up at the grisley image and starts to pray again, looking a bit green.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias slowly looks up, his eyes catching hte purple hair and locket. 1"No....No..."
<Xanatos> 6* Cole pings Cypher to get him to hurry up.
<Ariel> Raquel> *looks up* "......"
<Xanatos> 6* Kane peers at the body and frowns, moving forward to scan it with his datapad, having it check for visual markers to see if it matches X.
<DeathStar> 6* The size matches. And two teeth match. The rest of the teeth are gone, possiblely from the explosion.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl steps over to peer down, a frown
<Xanatos> <Kane> I think this may be her. 6He whispers to Cheryl.
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias stands beside Cheryl, his hands and knees trembling
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher doots it will take time to go over the files he gets and that he must be Bonds like.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> We can't know for certain until we do more thorough scans. If it is her, why is the hair in perfect condition, for example, but only a little. The teeth-- there's a chance it's not her
<Xanatos> <Kane> Should I have them take this to your base, or do you want me to take care of the scans?
<Kit> 6Key jerks slightly, then starts bawling at the top of her lungs, like some freakishly oversized baby.
<Jennifer> * Peter stands and walks over to the others.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You can do better scans than us.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon jerks, grabbing Key in a hug
<DeathStar> <Lemon> KEy...
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias just falls back onto his ass on the rubble, a broken look in his eyes
<Xanatos> <Kane> I'm not sure why this is the way it is, but I will find out, I promise.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole just lets him know that X is most likely dead and it's up to him to find the footage of her killer!
<DeathStar> 6* Cypher doots he'll find Killer X
<Ariel> 6* Raquel slowly stands, and makes her way over to hug Dias.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl puts a hand on Dias' shoulder. "Give me time, Dias, to find the truth."
<Chad`Winters> 6Dias just leans into Raquel's hug in response.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane calls in people to get the body to the executive building, rubbing his chin in thought.
<Jennifer> * Peter stares over the rubble, considering how many people died to take out one person, or even worse, just to fake it.
<Xanatos> 6* Cole moves over and grab Lemon and Key in a hug.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon shifts so Key is hugged between them, while Cheryl peers up at the sky.
<DeathStar> -END-
Session Close: Thu Nov 12 23:03:47 2009

<Chad`Winters> 6Loki and Aurora walk through the Market Plaza
<DeathStar> 6* Athena puts up posters of herself on things, with info under it
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora peers over at her and Loki smacks his head as he's dragged along. She leans over, peering at the poster closely
<DeathStar> 6* It talks about a free concert coming up, probably so Athena can bait people in before charging prices. Though it says members of the Athena Fan Club get front row seats and mentions how to join the club for 30 credits
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> 30 credits...Seem's awfully expensive for someone I know nothing about
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers over from another poster. "Come see Athena perform. Then next concert maybe want front row seats."
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora peers at Athena. 1"And what exactly do you sing?"
<DeathStar> <Athena> Sing everything. Also will take requests at end.
* Jennifer walks by, she stops and peers at the poster.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora leans over, whispering somethign to Loki, who raises a brow in response.
<Chad`Winters> <Loki> Why the hell didn't I think of that? <Aurora> Because Icehearts caused you to become soft and lethargic.
<Jennifer> "Neat... been wanting to see her sing..." *she looks over the fan club detail*
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams at Jennifer
* Jennifer looks over at Athena and smiles, looking shy. "Oh... h-hi! I'll be there."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena glad.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I'll join this club of yours then.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena blinks, smiling at Aurora. "Will get lots of bonuses, too!" 6* She promises.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I look forward to them. 6Loki sneers at Aurora from behind her back
<Jennifer> "I'll join when I get some credits." *she smiles wryly*
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods. She takes out a datapad to input their names, with Jennifer "pending".
<Jennifer> "Oh... and if you ever need a guitar backup, look me up, I'm looking for gigs."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Will consider. Have Uncle Drasek.
<Jennifer> "I remember him playing once... he's good."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods
* Jennifer considers. "Not so sure I'm fit for bouncy tunes anymore, but if I come up with some, think you might give them a shot for me?"
<DeathStar> <Athena> Shot? 6* She tilts her head
<Jennifer> "Sing them out."
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora raises a brow then looks at Loki. 1"You weren't lieing about her."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Oh. ... 6* She seems torn. "People say shouldn't sing others' songs in case get accused of stealing."
<DeathStar> 6* She peers at Aurora, then Loki. "What say about Athena?" 6* She looks uber cute
<Jennifer> "I'll give you special permission." *she winks*
<Chad`Winters> <Loki> That you're cute and very special. 6He gives her big smile
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams.
* Jennifer looks over Loki and Aurora.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora shakes his head, since he probably means a certain kind of special. 1"What would help you in that area Athena, is if you had a manager to take care of that kind of paper work.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena tilts her head. "Others say same thing. But hard to find someone. Marcus said would be, but he busy running his resturant."
<Jennifer> "Well... it can't be too hard."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Well if you're serious about it, I'd love to offer my skills, for a modest fee of course. If you're good, I could even help expose you off world. Which means more fans.
* Jennifer looks between Aurora and Athena.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Sounds nice! But Da-DA said to talk to him before making any big decisions.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Of course, it's only fair he'd want to make sure you weren't getting taken advantage of.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena will get back to you promptly. 6* She bows, then bounds off, putting up more posters.
* Jennifer scratches her head a bit and watches her bound off, then looks at the other two.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora looks back at Loki. 1"I've been on this ship in a fraction of the time you have and I'm already getting more done then you.
<Jennifer> "Assuming Xanatos doesn't stamp down on the idea. Yeah."
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora pauses then looks over at Jennifer. 1"Who is this rude person who thinks they can but in on others conversations?
<Jennifer> "I was standing right here. Sorry for butting in though. I'm Jennifer."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I doubt it. 6She eyes her nails.
<Chad`Winters> 6Loki seems to be creeping away slowly
* Jennifer frowns a little. "Doubt what you want then." *she moves towards the cafe*
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora leans back towards the poster, clearly coming up with a way to market Athena. Loki quietly sneaks off
<DeathStar> 6* Billy sneaks up on Aurora, peering up at her like an innocent six year old
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora slowly looks down at Billy. 1"May I help you?"
<DeathStar> <Billy> Hi. I'm lost. Have you seen my mommy?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> It depends on who the mother is.

Session Start: Fri Nov 13 00:00:00 2009
Session Ident: #Erevis
<DeathStar> 6* Billy describes some woman Aurora's never seen, then holds up a pouch of credits, brimming. "She gave me this and told me to buy some food and wait while she did some things, but that was 5 hours ago..."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> You've been left alone for five hours and still have an entire pouch full of credits?
<DeathStar> <Billy> The man in the cafe gave me free food. And I don't knwo what else to use it on. Do you have any ideas?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> How much do you have in there?
<DeathStar> <Billy> 400 credits. She said 'it should be enough for you'. Then she hurried away.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Parenting at it's finest. 6She holds her hand out to take Billy's hand. 1"Let's see what we can find you for clothing.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy smiles at Aurora. "Thank you."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Now if it was me, I'ld spoil myself and by whatever I wanted.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Oh? Like what?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Clothing, candy. Toys. Well at my age, expensive alcohol and possibly something sexy to wear. Depends on my mood
<DeathStar> <Billy> Hmmm. 6* She offers Auora 100 credits. "So you can buy something al-co-hol."
* Xan|Gone is now known as Xanatos
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora eyes the 100 credits then takes them. 1"That's awfully kind of you."
<DeathStar> <Billy> You seem like a nice person. helping me.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Well I try my hardest. So should we find something for you then?
<DeathStar> 6* Billy nods, holding Aurora's hand like a happy child
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora takes her hand and leads her to one of the stores
<Chad`Winters> 6Loki peers from the distance.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Would you hold this for me since it's so heavy? 6* She offers the pouch
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora holds it for her. 1"Sure you trust a complete stranger to hold this?
<DeathStar> <Billy> You seem nice.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> A person should never trust first impressions.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Oh. Never?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> In my line of work, not. Most people tend to hide who they are to give a better impression.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Oh. Why?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Trust. If people find you more pleasant, they're more willing to listen or do things.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy ooooohs, stopping in front of a clothes store
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Men like a guy I'm currently working with, enjoys buttering up the people he wants things from, to use guilt to get what he wants.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Oh? Is he the one watching you right now?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I wouldn't doubt it. 6She slowly looks back and Loki nonchalantly starts talking to a girl.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy leads Aurora in, then looks at all the clothing like an eager kid
<DeathStar> <Billy> I'm going to try this on! 6* She grabs one and moves into a changing area, leaving Aurora alone with the money.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora tosses the pouch in her hand up and down as she waits
<DeathStar> 6* Billy steps on, studying her still being there, then smiles. She's picked an overly cute black witch's dress.
<DeathStar> <Billy> See, I could trust you - you stayed! 6* She notes with 'childish' pride
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Well I don't need the guilt of something happening to you if I left you alone.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy beams. "You'll fit in here interestingly enough. You have drive, but you're not completely diabolical. Yet. I'm Billy." 6* She holds out her hand
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> My name's Aurora. 6She shakes her hand. 1"And yes, I tend to lean towards being blunt.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy takes the pouch, full of marbles, an illusion of credits. "I look forward to seeing what you do."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I have my goals in life.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy smiles, moving back to change int oher real clothes. She tosses Aurora a marble. "For luck."
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora catches it, peering at it. 1"Thank you."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I think.

<DeathStar> 6* Y.Zephyr pokes abou the bar
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus gives her a smile, standing behind the counter. 1Hello.
<DeathStar> 6* Peering up, she smiles. "Hi, Marcus!" 6* She says, all friendly, perhaps remembering him vaguely from the memories she got from her counter part.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Can I get you anything?
<DeathStar> <Y.Zephyr> Um, what do you recommend? Chad just typically gets sandwiches to bring home.
<Kit> 6Elwyn appears in the bar, stetching. She's wearing capri jeans and sandals, her top more like a bandana that's been tied in place.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Yeah he's not one for much change, but we have all different types of meals. We have various soups and salads. I try to do a special each day as well. Usually those are the more experimental meals.
<DeathStar> <Y.Zephyr> I guess I'll try a special. 6* Athena appears behind Elwyn, stretching like her, wearing the same thing
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus gives her a nod, then arches a brow to peer at Athena and Elwyn.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Is that...the new uniform?
<DeathStar> <Athena> Merowl? No. Just wanted to look like Elwyn! 6* She poses cutely next to her
<Kit> <Elwyn> H-huh..? No, just doing laundry.
<Kit> 6Elwyn pauses, jerking slightly and eyeing Athena.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena gives a cute look
<Kit> <Elwyn> J-Jeez, kid.
<DeathStar> 6* The younger Zephyr eyes the two odly
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus rubs the side of his head then moves to get Zephyr her special, stepping back out to set it down, it seems to be a greek inspired gyro with home made potato chips. 1Anything to drink, Zeph?
<DeathStar> <Y. Zephyr> Wine? 6* She tries to look completely innocent
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Nice try.
<DeathStar> 6* She slumps. "Soda."
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus smirks and gets the soda, setting it down, he rotates his neck slightly.
<Kit> <Elwyn> So is Kat in?
<DeathStar> 6* Athena plops in a seat, setting Xanatos a message asking to see him in the bar, then leans back. "Can I have some pie I made yesterday for Da-Da?"
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I don't think she is. 6He tells Elwyn before giving Athena a nod and stepping into the back.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Drat. Thought I'd stop by for the trial." 6She murmurs, slumping over the counter, yawning.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina plots in the back with an overly cute and showy waitress outfit, having hired someone to make it
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Oh you are here. Elwyn's outside waiting for you. 6He says as he gets to pieces of pie.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos appears on the teleporter, wearing his suit, moving to take a seat by Athena.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina peers over. "She's probably here for trial work. You should give her something to do."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena leans over to kiss his cheek, which earns Xanatos some looks, thinking he's a creepy old man
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Will do. 6He steps out with the pies and sets them down for athena and xanatos then moves back to the counter. 1Kat is here, she needs a model for the new suit. 6He tells elwyn.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos gives her a smile and pauses at the pie. 1I see you and Elwyn fell into the same closet today.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Fall into lots of things together. 6* She notes, completely innocent in her delivery, then leans forward, mentioning how the nice Cartel lady offered to be her manager for a reasonable fee.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Eh..? In back?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Yep.
<Kit> 6Elwyn nods, though narrows her eyes back at Athena's mention of a cartel lady. She mumbles and moves toward the back room sleepily.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Hmm. 6He tries to annoy the well delivered line and focuses on the Cartel information. 1I don't know much about this Miss Aurora, but I know that I haven't had the best luck with Cartel members in the past. Especially when it comes to money.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Thought Da-Da should be there to help Athena decide if good idea. 6* She nods, nibbling on a piece of pie
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Essentially she's wanting to be your agent, right?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Have you gotten settled in well enough? 6He asks Zephyr.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Manager, yes.
<DeathStar> <Y. Zephyr> Yeah. Once you get used to Chad's snoring, it's pretty nice living on a beach
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina peers at Elwyn. "Oh, hello."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I could imagine. I love swimming, so I'd probably never leave.
<DeathStar> <Y. Zephyr> Then why not have a beach in the back? I'm sure you could add it on for a reasonable fee.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos hmms. 1Well, if she didn't rip you off it could be pretty helpful in jumpstarting your career as an idol. What do you think you would like to do?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> With the bar and the kid on the way, I need to be cautious on money.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena just want to sing and be successful.
<DeathStar> <Y. Zephyr> I'm sure a kid would love growing up somewhere like that
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Well once everything settles down, that's definitely something to think about.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Well, a Cartel member is definitely someone that could get that to happen. I just don't want to see you not getting what you deserve.
<DeathStar> <Athena> That's why Athena said wanted Da-Da there to help. Da-Da smart. 6* She ndos
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos gives a smirk. 1Well. I appreciate the vote of confidence, and I'll definitely be there if you need me too. Don't mention I said this, but Megumi is pretty good with this kind of thing, I think. You might want her there too.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena messages Megumi about coming to get pie
<DeathStar> 6* She ends the message with =^_^=, clearly Erevis' kid
<Kit> 6Megumi replies with 'O.K. *¯ ^¯*'
<Kit> <Elwyn> You're working on something, I heard?" 6She squints.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Just the uniform.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I wonder if she'll suspect me. 6He muses.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Merowl?
<Kit> <Elwyn> Mm, Marcus said to help you." 6She tilts her head.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> For getting her in on this.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'm not sure what you can do really. I'm just adjusting the design.
<Kit> 6Megumi appears on the telepad, in a chinese dress for the moment, holding what appears to be an energy-based shotgun.
<Kit> 6Elwyn moves over to look at it.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena waves at Megumi
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos slowly glances over her shoulder, arching a brow.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Someone's stealing my weapon choice. 6he notes from the bar.
<Kit> <Megumi> Huh?" 6She pauses in walking over to the two, peering at Marcus.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Hello Megumi. 6he chimes in.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus slips into the back and steps out to set down pie on the table.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena pulls Megumi next to her.
<Kit> 6Megumi peers back and moves over to sit down, awkwardly holding the gun.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina adjusts the chest area a bit, hmmming
<Kit> <Elwyn> What's your aim?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Aim? 6* She steps back, hmmming, then looks satisfied.
* Xanatos is now known as Xan|Work
<Kit> <Elwyn> ...Yeah, your purpose. What you want the uniform to accomplish.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh, I'm done with it. 6* She smiles, stepping back to admire it. It's enough tease without making Marcus uncomfortable, with a sort of french maid feel to it as well
<Kit> 6Elwyn pauses, then blushes slightly. 1"Er..."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Here, try it on. 6* She shifts one of them to Elwyn
<Kit> <Elwyn> M-Muh.. M-Maid cafe..?!" 6She jerks. 1"You made one already..!?"
<DeathStar> <Katrina> You can't slack in a war.
<Kit> 6Elwyn eyes the uniform, squinting. 1"War..? I-- I don't think I'm meant for cute things like this."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Nonsense, you'll look great. 6* She moves over to begin undressing Elwtyn
* Xanatos has joined #Erevis-TheBar
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Xanatos
<Kit> 6Elwyn jerks, backing up against the wall and putting her arms over her chest. 1"H-Hey!"
<DeathStar> 6* Athena begins to tell Megumi about how she wants her and Xan to be with her talking to hte Cartel woman
<Kit> <Megumi> A cartel woman..? Could be trouble in business.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina ignores Elwyn's protests. "If you want to work here, you should get used to it. Now come on. I'll give you a slice of pie afterwards."
<Kit> 6Elwyn blinks, caught with her pants down, literally. 1"Wh-What do you think I am? A little kid like Athena..!?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina ignores her comment, beginning to put the outfit on Elwyn like she were one
<Kit> 6Elwyn flails, but after a while, sits patiently, squinting. 1"Never worn something so frilly in my life." 6She mumbles.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Trouble?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina finishes, then leads Elwyn out for Marcus to see
<Kit> 6Elwyn half-hides behind Katrina, looking shy and embarassed for once.
* Dias-Sleep is now known as Chad`Winters
* Chad`Winters is now known as Chad-BOWLING
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina shows Elwyn off to Marcus, who is very busy. :(
<Kit> 6Elwyn makes faces, squirming in place and holding the skirt down. She's only worn pants as far as anyone knows.
* Xanatos has quit IRC (Quit: Client Exited)
* Xan|Work is now known as Xanatos
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina waits
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Hmm. 6He motions for a twirl.
<Kit> <Elwyn> I--" 6She jerks.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina twirls Elwyn
<Kit> 6Elwyn whirls around, then pauses, wobbling slightly, her head turning to eye Katrina, bewildered.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus nods once, then twice. 1Now it's a little revealing, we can't make anyone wear them if they feel uncomfortable.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I'm sure the tip incentive will change their minds
<Kit> <Elwyn> ...Tip?" 6She blinks.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> If someone likes your service, they'll give you a little extra as a tip.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> And the ... flashier you are.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> The more men are usually willing to play
<Kit> <Elwyn> ...Really." 6She tilts her head, smiling a bit.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Athena gets tipped often. 6He notes with a nod.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> She does.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Can we trim a little off then? Fufufu.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus laughs slightly and shakes his head.
<Kit> <Elwyn> I'm used to... slinkier things. This 'cute' stuff is.. weird." 6She frowns at Marcus' reaction.
<Kit> <Elwyn> And I never wear skirts." 6She twitches.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I think you look adorable.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena tilts her head. "Cartel trouble in business?"
<Xanatos> <Marcus> You look very good in that. I'm sure you would get tipped very nicely.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos gives a slight shrug. 1They're risky, but the reward is also very high.
<Kit> 6Elwyn jerks, blushing slightly and twitching. 1"W-Well, if you say so."
<Kit> 6She rubs her hands together, scheming
<Kit> <Megumi> They certainly have... connections. It is just important to make sure you do not become little more than an... asset.
* Jennifer steps in and heads over to the bar.
<Kit> 6Elwyn pauses, eyeing Jennifer and slowly inches behind Katrina.
* Jennifer peers at Elwyn a moment and shrugs as she takes a seat.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Momma and Da-Da help Athena, right?
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina peers at Elwyn, then moves her around so everyone in the bar can see
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Of course.
* Jennifer glances up again and admires Elwyn a moment.
<Kit> 6Elwyn jerks, peering at Katrina over her shoulder with a frown. 1"Y-You..."
<Kit> <Elwyn> You're just like her. Jeez." 6She fidgets in the dress.
<Kit> <Megumi> I do not mind, I suppose.
<Jennifer> * Ziranth steps in, looking about a little uncertainly before making his way to a table.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I think you look adorable. Here, get Jennifer an order
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina guides Elwyn over
<Kit> <Elwyn> What, I'm starting already..!? I don't even know--
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Just ask her order. Then give it to Marcus
<Kit> 6Elwyn makes a face, then eyes Jennifer, twitching. 1"What. ...Do you want?"
* Jennifer smiles a little, waiting, used to being trained herself. "Penne with meat sauce, and a glass of water."
<Kit> <Elwyn> ... ..." 6She jerks. 1"Oh." 6And moves over to Marcus. 1"...Uh, that girl wants pennies with meat sauce and some water."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I'll get the food, you get the drink. Make sure to offer refills when the glass is getting low. 6He nods and steps into the back.
<Kit> 6Elwyn nods, then eyes the bar, then Katrina.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina watches, motioning where the water and glasses are
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams at the two
<Jennifer> * Ziranth lounges in his seat and looks around, mostly at the girls.
<Kit> 6Elwyn moves quickly behind the counter and grabs the largest glass she can find, fills it to the brim without ice and then rushes back to slam it on the table for Zephyr.
<Kit> NRP: Jennifer!
<Kit> NRP: *runs*
* Jennifer backs away a little to avoid most of the splash, she smiles patiently though and nods to her.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos blinks and glances from the scene at the bar to look at Athena. 1If she doesn't work out, maybe we can be your managers.
<Kit> <Megumi> Us?
<DeathStar> <Athena> Da-Da and Momma want to manage Athena?
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I don't know much about it, but I'd be willing to learn if it meant protecting you from someone that would take advantage.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina seems amused, motioning Elwyn over to Ziranth
<Kit> 6Elwyn follows her motions and jerks, then practically runs over.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Hi! Wha'dya want?!
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus steps out and sets the food down in front of Jennifer.
<Jennifer> Ziranth> "Hey!" *he checks her out* "I'd like poultry... cooked well with some stuffing."
* Jennifer looks at the food, then Marcus and smiles again. "Thanks Mr. Jones."
<Kit> <Elwyn> ...Poultry?
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus nods. 1No problem.
<Jennifer> Ziranth> "Earth animal... chicken?"
<Kit> <Elwyn> That's not poultry, man. A chicken's a chicken. Poultry can be anything from chicken to a nyawathien. You gotta be specific unless you want some weird alien duck shoved down your gullet." 6She fumes.
<Jennifer> * Ziranth stares at her a moment. "Chicken."
<Kit> <Elwyn> Right." 6She runs over to Marcus at Jennifer's table. 1"Hey, the weirdo over there wants some chicken and stuffing."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> We don't call customers names.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Huh?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> He's not a weirdo, he's a customer. You call him mister, or sir.
<Kit> <Elwyn> ...That mister over there wants chicken.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus pauses and shakes his head. 1Yeah that sounds weird. Just say, "That man." 6He gives her a smile and then moves to get the chicken and stuffing.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena lifts pie up to Megumi
<Kit> 6Megumi sniffs, then blinks, eyeing it. 1"Hm. What kind..?"
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena pie!
<Kit> 6Megumi reels slightly.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Try, try!
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> It's very good. 6He assures Megumi.
<Kit> <Megumi> Of course... I will try it." 6She blinks, reaching for a fork.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena leans in
<Kit> 6Megumi goes to take a bite thoughtfully.
<DeathStar> 6* It's definitely not like any other pie, crowded in with a blend of various ingredients that seem to work.
<Kit> <Megumi> Interesting.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Like?
<Kit> <Megumi> Yes." 6She swipes the rest.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena looks pleased, leaning against Megumi. "So, if Momma and Da-DA managers, how much 'cut' they get?"
<Kit> <Megumi> Eighty percent.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena reels.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> That's worse than the Cartel I think.
<Kit> <Megumi> For myself. Nineteen for Athena. One for "Da-da."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I wouldn't want any of it. 6He notes. 1Since Athena will need to use that money to take care of me when I get old.
* Jennifer eats quietly. She looks around as does.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena's lip trembles at Megumi's cut
<Kit> <Elwyn> Hey, Marcus! Where's that chicken!?
<Kit> <Megumi> I jest, sweetie.
<DeathStar> <Athena> N-Not rob Athena?
<Kit> <Megumi> Of course not. Eighty percent is Athena's.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams.
<Kit> 6Megumi crosses her arms. 1"Naturally, the nineteen is mine-- and one for "Da-da.""
<DeathStar> <Athena> Kay.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus steps out and sets it on the counter. 1Had to cook the stuffing,
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers at Elwyn, then squeals at the sight of her, bounding over to check her out, moving in circles
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus pauses at the squeeling and then gives the chicken to Z-guy.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena want outfit@! 6* Katrina leads her into the back with an evil smile
<Jennifer> * Ziranth nods to him. "Excellent."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Let me know if you need anything else. 6He moves back to the counter.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos tilts his head slightly and leans forward.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Just 1 percent?
<Kit> <Megumi> One who would take nothing should be grateful." 6She smiles at Xanatos.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> 1% of 10 million is still 100,000 isn't it? I definitely wouldn't comaplain.
<Kit> 6Megumi nods to Xanatos.
<Kit> 6Elwyn looks flustered after having Athena molest her with her eyes, moving to sit on a barstool, sighing.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> You sure don't seem to like the attention.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bounds out in the outfit, spinning in it, holding her arms out for Marcus and Elwyn to inspect
<Kit> 6Elwyn blushes more, making a face now that she can see it from the third person perspective.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus smiles. 1Maybe you should get Megumi and Xanatos' opinion?
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods, bounding over to them, then poses in front of them, a hand on her hip, the other holding a pad. "May Athena take your order?"
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina taps her fingers together. "Oh, we'll win."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> It's cute when you get in war mode.
<Kit> <Megumi> Mm, so that is what it was for. I had a feeling it was for the bar, but not necessarily the waitresses.
<Kit> 6Megumi looks scrutinous. 1"Perhaps I should have made it less enticing."
<Kit> <Megumi> Actually... this is modified.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> .... 6He rubs his neck. 1Uh. You look...pretty.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> ... 6* She peers at Marcus.
<Kit> 6Elwyn leans back on the bar, tilting her head backwards and peering at Katrina upside-down. 1"You're something alright."
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I did run a military unit once . Crushing a store shouldn't be hard
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams at Xanatos, giving a wiggle of her hips. "Athena like outfit!"
<Kit> <Elwyn> I like this kind of war."
<Kit> 6Elwyn smiles wryly. 1"We could have our own little skirmish, though..."
<Kit> <Elwyn> Exhibition match, if you will.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Oh?
<Kit> <Elwyn> Okay, more like exhibitionist." 6She snickers.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Well...as long as you're happy. 6He rubs his face slightly.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus gives Kat a smirk. 1You DID used to be my boss, didn't you?
<DeathStar> <Katrina> I still am
<DeathStar> 6* Athena shifts to spin around Jennifer
<Kit> <Elwyn> Ohhh, so he'd have no issues with a little boss-employee action, eh?
* Jennifer looks at Athena in amusement.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> We're a team, a TEAM. And yes I would have issues with that.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena takes on a very french maid like pose and facial expression, trying to look blank and cute.
<Kit> <Elwyn> As if it wouldn't turn you on.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> My man is very 1 on 1.
<Kit> <Megumi> Ahh, you have more practice by the day...
* Jennifer blinks, she tilts her head and looks over Athena. "Amazing pose."
<DeathStar> 6* Megumi does a peace sign
<DeathStar> *Athena too
<Kit> <Elwyn> So if you got a little work out beforehand you'd rock his boat.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> If you hit on my wife, you risk your job. Keep that in mind.
<Kit> <Elwyn> I'm more accustomed to risking my life." 6She smiles.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Well, I don't need to resort to violence, my baby loves me and I trust her.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Pity. I can tell she's a fun one.
* Jennifer sips her water. "Let's see a formal bow."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bows all formly
<DeathStar> *formally
<Jennifer> "You could be a real maid."
<Kit> 6Megumi peers over at Jennifer, her eyes narrowing
* Jennifer sips her water again. "Do you practice a lot?"
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena natural!
<DeathStar> 6* Athena poses
* Jennifer grins a bit. "Definately. You've got some spark."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Get her. 6he whispers to Megumi.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena does a seductive pose for Jennifer, leaning in with her hands like paws
* Jennifer takes a bite of her food. "How's the prep for your show coming?" *she observes the pose calmly*
<DeathStar> <Athena> Coming great!
<Jennifer> "Excellent. Bet your family's excited."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods. "Momma get 19% and Da-Da 1%!"
<Kit> 6Megumi eyes Xanatos. 1"'Get' here?"
<Kit> NRP: her*
* Jennifer giggles a bit.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Say what? 6He peers at her, as if he didn't say anything.
* Jennifer rubs the back of her head a little, though enjoying the company. "Anything good for dessert today?"
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena pie!
<Jennifer> "Sounds delicious, I'll have to have a piece."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods, then bounds into the back
* Jennifer finishes the remains of her food while Athena is gone, sitting back a little. Ziranth meanwhile, parts his gaze from the two to watch Athena bound away.
<Jennifer> * Ziranth then goes back to eating his stuffing.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bounds back with pie, setting it down
<Kit> 6Elwyn moves over to Ziranth
<Jennifer> * Ziranth looks up at Elwyn.
* Jennifer smiles and takes a slow bite.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Hey, weird guy. You never ordered anything to drink. Won't you choke if you stuff yourself like that?
<DeathStar> 6* Athena leans in, her nose practically touching Jen, waiting on her reaction
<Jennifer> * Ziranth considers this a moment, his pupils contract a moment as he thinks, then grins. "Beer."
* Jennifer blushes a little. "Delicious."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams, leaning back
<Kit> <Elwyn> Maaaarcus! Need a beer!
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Then get one. 6He notes.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena begins to slink off for attention as Jennifer goes quiet
<Kit> <Elwyn> I don't know where the hell they are!
* Jennifer smiles a little. "Thanks Athena."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bounds and leaps onto Xan's lap
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos smiles at her. 1Hi.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Boy, it sure would be nice if you made the effort to learn.
<Kit> <Elwyn> You only learn if someone's teaching!" 6She grumbles, moving over to the counter and rifling.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus leans out to poke her forward, then slowly moves his hand to points toward the fridge with all the various beers.
<Kit> <Elwyn> ...W-Watch where you're poking." 6She utters suggestively, then peers in the fridge. 1"...Oh." 6She moves back to the edge of the counter, then whistles loudly, tossing it over to Ziranth.
<Jennifer> * Ziranth catches it, smiling at her. "Feisty."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Yeah, we don't throw beers at people. You TAKE them to them.
* Jennifer watches quietly.
<Kit> <Elwyn> ...He looked happy enough.
<Jennifer> Ziranth> "She can throw anything she likes at me in that outfit."
<Kit> 6Elwyn jerks a thumb. 1"See?"
<DeathStar> 6* Athena leans back on Xanatos, peering at Megumi, then at Xan, then her. "You two dating yet? CHIP says Momma Megumi and Da-Da dating and CHAD said... bumping... ugly..."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena squints, trying to remember how it was said
<Kit> <Megumi> Wh-Who is ugly!?
<Jennifer> "Yeah, but most customers probably don't see abuse as a form of affection like that guy does."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Not Momma and Da-Da.

<Kit> 6Elwyn pauses, peering over at Jennifer. 1"I'm sure more don't see eavesdropping and rude comments affectionate either."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Um. We're not. We're taking our time, we saved the universe, we can spare a little bit of that, right?
* Jennifer rubs the back of her head. "Sorry..."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Spare?
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Jennifer's still right. Don't throw beers at people, if they don't catch it and you hit them, we could get sued. And I can't afford that.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Basically I just mean that we have time, we shouldn't rush into it. 6he pauses and leans forward slightly. 1Unless Megumi wants too. 6He makes a kiss face, to see what she does.
<Jennifer> * Ziranth grins a bit and places a decent tip on the table.
<Kit> <Elwyn> I think I'm starting to see some of the appeal on the other side of the hall..." 6She makes a face.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena leans forward to stare, tooo
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina hums, working on karaoke selections to play Athena songs she recorded, evilly smiling
<Xanatos> <Marcus> No matter where you go, you're going to have rules placed on you. The only way to avoid that is to go into your own business and even then, you have to be smart or you won't succeed.
<Kit> <Elwyn> ..." 6She eyes Marcus, then shakes her head, not feeling like explaining her old business.
<Kit> <Elwyn> You're doing a good job bringing class into it, but I wouldn't so much call this a bar anymore if that's what you're doing. You realize most of the people coming in here are going to be so worn out from travel and discussions they don't care about or don't want to deal with... what they really need is a good time, right?
<Kit> <Elwyn> I don't remember anyone daring when this place was stranded-- maybe a little competition is what you need, after all.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> So throwing a beer at someone is relaxing? Interesting. I'll put that in my book.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Wow. You used to be so laid back, too.
<Kit> 6Elwyn squints. 1"Huh, if that's a trait of getting old, I'm glad time is frozen.."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Being that you're from 'the future' then wouldn't I already be older?
* Jennifer watches the match like tennis.
<Kit> <Elwyn> I didn't really know you. In fact, I doubt we ever met, honestly.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> All I'm asking is you respect the customers. That's it. If that's being too classy, then well give me some boxed wine.
<Kit> 6Elwyn eyes him, then peers over at Katrina, putting a hand to her mouth. 1"Oyyy! Kat! Teach your boy some manners, would you? And while you're at it, maybe beat some life back into his old bones!"
<DeathStar> 6* Athena looks at Xan. "Broke her."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Hmm. I think the thought of kissing me is just too much. 6He leans back now.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Oh she beats my bone often.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina looks over from the karaoke, an Athena song playing for 30 seconds to lure people in
<Kit> <Megumi> You are asking for it, Durran.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Well yes, I did just ask for it.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Give it to Da-Da, Momma!
<Kit> <Elwyn> More like you missed the point of everything I said.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> There was a point in your flawed statement of me being relaxed back in the day!?
<Kit> 6Megumi narrows her eyes, then reaches over to grab Xanatos by the shirt and leans over with her head tilts to kiss him, knowing what to do but finding herself clumsy about it!
<Kit> <Elwyn> Flawed? Excuse me?" 6She raises an eyebrow.
* Jennifer moves over to the machine.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus wiggles his fingers. 1Okay, elaborate more for me please. I like to learn new things.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos arches his brow, but returns the kiss, being a better kisser(mwuaha), but it seems he's shocked she actually did it.
<DeathStar> 6* AThena films with her datapad
<Kit> <Elwyn> Nah, you blew it.
<Kit> 6Elwyn leans on her elbow, looking annoyed. Probably from being called flawed with no reasoning.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus gives her a pouty lip.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos leans back after a second and smirks. 1You better not show that to Erevis, she might get jealous. 6He tells Athena.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Might get horny.
<Kit> 6Megumi sits back, looking confused.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Hm. That's not a good face to have after you kiss someone.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bounces over to Jennifer to see if she puts a credit in to play a song
* Jennifer looks over the song collection curiously, she looks up to smile at Athena.
<Kit> <Megumi> I used to be better!
<Kit> <Megumi> I-- I want to slap Wind." 6She puffs her cheeks.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Well, you and I both know that Erevis would love to train you. Not saying...she hasn't...lost it either. 6He shifty eyes at himself. 1I suck at wording things.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus slides closer, pouting.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina pats Marcus
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Kat she's ignoring me because I asked her to respect my customers.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Oh and I may have...called her a liar...without meaning too!
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Give her a hug and apologize.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus sighs and grabs Elwyn in a big hug. 1I'm sorry, you're not a liar or faulty or whatever the hell I said. You're super cool! A-and 6he looks to Kat to see if that's enough.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> Give her a cookie
<DeathStar> 6* Atehna smiles, waiting
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus sets her down then grabs a cookie and holds it out to her.
<Kit> <Elwyn> K-Kat... I-I'm not a child.
<DeathStar> <Katrina> It's a good cookie
<Kit> 6Elwyn sighs, taking it.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus smiles wide.
* Jennifer selects a song and puts in a credit.
* Jennifer picks up a mic and starts to sing.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena sways, looking like she wants to sing, but resists
* Jennifer motions as she sings, welcoming her to join in.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena begins to sing, moving her body to the music
* Jennifer smiles, moving with her, matching her tempo to make the duet sound even better.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bumps her hip against Jennifer's
* Jennifer restrains a giggle as she moves with Athena, singing on.
* Jennifer puts her all into her singing as she always does, possibly matching Athena's performing energy.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena finishes with a peace sign
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos claps.
<Kit> <Megumi> Hm. Seems as if singing really is her life.
* Jennifer blinks a bit and matches it. She smiles and gives Athena a hug. "That was great! You're awesome."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena returns the hug
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos taps the table slowly.
* Jennifer winks and lets go. "We'll have to try another one soon."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods eagerly, then shifts to lean over Xan's booth to peer at them. "More kisses while Athena gone?"
<Kit> <Megumi> Nope.
* Jennifer goes over to clean off her plate and drink the remains of her water.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I think I was bad at it.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Maybe. . .
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> M-Maybe Erevis will train me too. 6He sniffs.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena hmmms. "Athena could teach." 6* She grabs Megumi's head and leans her forward to Xan's lips, tilting her head. "Now open lips. Insert tongues."
<Kit> <Megumi> H-Hey! Athena!!
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos just chuckles. 1I'm sure we'll get it eventually. Thanks for the help though.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena sniffles. "Sure?"
* Jennifer gets up, moving to leave.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Yeah, I would hate for Megumi to die from embarassement.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus leans forward and clears his throat for Jennifer.
* Jennifer blinks and looks over. She blushes and pays for the meal, then moves to leave again.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Have a good day. 6He says automatically as he takes the money.
<Jennifer> "You too Mr. Jones."
<Kit> <Megumi> Considerate. For once." 6She scoffs.
* Jennifer waves to Athena as she goes.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> For once!? I'm always considerate. I offered to rub your feet and you freaked out thinkign I had some weird fetish.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena waves back.
<Kit> <Megumi> You might!
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Hmph. If I did, you would know about it, since Erevis doesn't keep secrets about that kind of thing.
<Jennifer> * Ziranth finishes his beer and grins a bit, he walks over to the counter and puts down some credits. "I like this place, best assignment yet."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bows all french maid like. "Thank you, come again!"
<Xanatos> <Marcus> We're glad you do. 6He notes with a nod, taking the money.
<Jennifer> Ziranth> "Mmm..." *he looks about then pulls out a small datacard, he hands it to Marcus* "You learn these, you'll have all the Atlean business."
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus takes them and peers them over. 1Your dishes?
<Jennifer> * Ziranth nods. "Primarily the Klah, it's to us what humans normally think of as coffee."
<Kit> <Megumi> You keep secrets well when they suit you.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I'll do my best.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Oh is that so? Ask me anything. Anything and I'll answer it honestly.
<Kit> <Megumi> That has nothing to do with it, since I do not know what secrets you might keep to ask.
<Jennifer> * Ziranth nods again, grinning. "Great, I stink at making it, if you can do better then me, you'll have my business at least, when others arrive, they'll be looking for a good joint too."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Oh I have secrets. and They're gooood.
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Well once they arrive, if someone can do better, they're welcome to give me some lessons, I may even negotiate some pay for the training.
<Jennifer> Ziranth> "Mandalya. She's great, just be on the look out for the Atlean with cheek markings who looks too cheerful for her own good."
<Xanatos> <Marcus> Will do.
<Jennifer> * Ziranth pats him on the back and starts heading out. Humming a tune.
<Kit> <Megumi> Exactly, and I do not know what to ask about to prove my point.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> I know his seeeecrets.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I'll let CHIP help you...this once.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Xanatos likes his Asian food - you - covered in whip cream.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos arches a brow at that. 1You just made that up.
<Kit> <Megumi> It is no secret that beloved would like to get me between the two of them. I would only assume Xanatos is fine with that or he would not go along with her antics.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> I make nothing up
<Kit> 6Megumi tilts her head. 1"Although I would not have guessed whip cream to be a part of it."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> It's light and doesn't go straight to my hips.
<Kit> <Megumi> Very well.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> You know, Megumi, you should wear nothing but whip cream to bed one night and see how the Captain reacts.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> I'm told by a reliable source in this room it works on women
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus sneezes.
<DeathStar> 6* Katrina eyes Marcus
<Xanatos> <Marcus> I think I need to dust.
<Kit> <Megumi> You are ill-informed, CHIP, as we have already done this.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> O-Oh.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> ... ... did it go well?
<Kit> <Megumi> Deliciously.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Hear that, Xan? Deliciously.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I'm sad I missed out.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> ... I can give you other videos of them for a fee.
<Kit> <Megumi> CHIP!
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Yes? I'll give you 19% of the cut
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> No thank you CHIP.
<Kit> <Megumi> Hrmph..
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Are you hmphing that I turned him down?
<Kit> <Megumi> O-Of course not!!
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Are you sure? 6he leans forward slightly.
<Kit> 6Megumi scowls. 1"Very sure."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos. O-Oh. 6He lets out a sigh, leaning back.
* Xan|Gone has joined #Erevis-TheBar
* Xanatos has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Make your own memories." 6She mumbles, rising.
<Xan|Gone> <Xanatos> I'll see you later, then. To Make some memories. 6he notes with a smirk.
<Kit> 6Megumi jerks, then hurries to the telepad.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> I think she looks forward to it
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bows at Megumi
<DeathStar> <Athena> Thank you, come again!
<Kit> <Elwyn> Huh. So there are others that get teased.
<DeathStar> 6* Something rises under Elwyn's skirt, literally, and bumps against her thighs
<Kit> 6Elwyn jerks and jumps off the barstool, whirling around in a pose suggestiong some form of martial arts
<Kit> <Elwyn> Wh-What the hell!?
<DeathStar> 6* As she jumps, she knocks over Billy, who was literally under and in her skirt.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Fufufu, what pretty thongs.
<Kit> <Elwyn> B-Billy?!" 6She flushes slightly, twitching a bit in anger, but smiles.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy peers up. "Cute as a button and sexy underneath."
<Kit> <Elwyn> It's adorable when you talk about yourself like that.
<DeathStar> <Billy> Fuu, you flatter me.
<Kit> <Elwyn> I do.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy takes a datapad picture. "Maybe I should hire you to be my maid."
<Kit> 6Elwyn stares, grinding her teeth a bit. 1"No doubt you have some motive in that."
<DeathStar> <Billy> Fufufu. Maaaaaybe. 6* She begins to access the holonet on the datapad
<Kit> <Elwyn> .. What are you doing?
<DeathStar> <Billy> Connecting to my cute Underage Girls in Sexy Outfits website to post your picture up. The number of hits should sky rocket. Fufufu
<Kit> <Elwyn> Ara. But who gave you permission?" 6Her face overshadows slightly despite a wide grin, her fingers clenching.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy peers up, does a fuu, then turns to run for it.
<Kit> 6Elwyn narrows her eyes, swipping a hand to let a ring of blue flames envelop the entry from the telepad and she gets up quickly to sprint after Billy.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy jerks to a stop, perhaps seeing it, or sensing it, then peers back. "Fuuuuuu. Fine, I'll give you a cut of the profits your picture makes."
<Kit> <Elwyn> I'm not for sale, runt." 6She moves to grab Billy.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy ducks and slides under Elwyn's skirt again, tickling her thighs. "Oh? Fufufu. And here I thought the Cartel knew when to take a good deal. after all, you're already IN the outfit."
<Kit> 6Elwyn jerks upward, pushing the skirt down, then growls, whirling to try and grab her again.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy is grabbed and she flails pathetically
<Kit> 6Elwyn shifts to snatch the datapad, eyeing it.
<DeathStar> 6* The datapad shows her picture on the site, and it seems locked out with a simple datapad password system that comes with the datapad
<Kit> <Elwyn> You already...
<DeathStar> 6* Billy smiles innocently
<Kit> 6Elwyn looks unamused, dropping it to the ground.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy grabs it, then fuus, typing a password, then removes her picture
<Kogitsune> 6Elwyn pauses, then lifts Billy and gives her a kiss.
<DeathStar> 6* Billy blinks at that, caught off guard
<Kogitsune> 6Elwyn then sets her down, resuming her perch at the counter
<DeathStar> 6* Billy fuus. "I'll just keep your picture as my own personal touch-myself-at-night image." 6* She notes, then skips away
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> You and plenty others, girly.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena touches herself next to Elwyn - by touching her own shoulders
* Chad-BOWLING is now known as Chad`Winters
* Xan|Gone is now known as Xanatos
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Xanatos
* Chad`Winters is now known as Dias-FreeFood
* Dias-FreeFood is now known as Chad`Winters
<DeathStar> 6* Things happen here
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora steps off the teleporter, her hair pulled back into a pony tail. She sits down at a table.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora steps off the teleporter, her hair pulled back into a pony tail. She sits down at a table.
<Kit> 6Elwyn prances over, getting the hang of it more, holding her tray and smiling brightly. 1"Weeelcome. What can we get you, miss?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora looks over at Elwyn, sizing her up for a moment. 1"You can call me Aurora. And what is the special?"
<Kit> 6Elwyn seems to be sizing her up as well, despite the fluffy dress Katrina designed making her look more like a teenager, she's definitely early twenties when one looks closer. After a second she pauses. 1"Er, I don't know, actually."
<Kit> <Elwyn> Hey! Marcus! What the hell's the special today!?"
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> You work here and you don't know your own menu?
<Kit> <Elwyn> I'm kinda new, lady. This isn't exactly my forte, plus he makes all this weird shit since we're a neutral galactic place.
<Kit> 6Elwyn puts a hand on her hip, twitching at the lack of response. 1"Basically if you want it, he's usually willing to make it."
* Jennifer walks in from the marketplace and takes a seat at the bar.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora leans back slightly, clearly sensing a challenge behind that one.
<Kit> <Elwyn> So, if you got something in mind, I'll pass it off to the old man. Want something to drink?
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora lists off a meal that's definetly not easy to make and a rare wine.
* Xanatos is now known as Xan|Awayish
<Kit> 6Elwyn nods, scribbling it down, then smiles. 1"Be right back, sweetie." 6Then heads for the back, snarling the food to Marcus and stoops out to browse through the wines.
* Jennifer watches the free entertainment.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora glances at a watch on her wrist.
<DeathStar> 6* Something watches Jennifer
* Jennifer slowly looks around.
<DeathStar> 6* There appears to be nothing around her. But she is being watched.
* Jennifer rubs the back of her head and looks back at Elwyn's wine gathering adventure.
<Kit> 6Elwyn appears over the counter. 1"Ah-fuckin'-hah!"
<Chad`Winters> 6Loki watches from the window ouside the bar, binoculars pressed against his face
<Jennifer> "Victory?"
<Kit> 6Elwyn rubs her face, then grabs a glass and pours some out for Aurora, carrying it over to her.
<DeathStar> 6* An item from Jennifer's table vanishes as she looks away
<Kit> 6Elwyn gives her a thumbs up, then moves back to the counter, eyeing Jennifer. 1"Ah, the nosey girl."
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora takes the glass of wine and sniffs it, swirls it slightly as she eyes it
* Jennifer blinks and looks back at the counter, then up at Elwyn. "Jennifer will do. And... could I get some iced tea?"
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora takes a sip of it then sets the glass down
* Jennifer peers back at the counter and wonders why there seems to be less objects on it now.
<Chad`Winters> 6Loki presses the binoc's against the window now as he zooms in on something
<Kit> <Elwyn> Can't anyone be specific? There's like hundreds of teas, which one do you want ice in?" 6She twitches.
* Jennifer looks back up at her a little surprised. "I--- umm... just the usual kind?"
<Kit> 6Elwyn deadpans, then moves behind the counter, fixing something up, then returns, handing Jennifer some dark, sinister looking tea with ice in it.
* Jennifer looks at it. "There's ummm... no alcohol in this right?"
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> New girl. 6She waves her hand nonchalantly towards Elwyn.
<Kit> 6Elwyn snorts at Jennifer, then moves back to Aurora, tilting her head. 1"Yeah?"
* Jennifer takes an experimental sip.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Tell the puppy in the window to stop staring and either get inside or go away.
* Ariel has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
<Kit> <Elwyn> Don't like people staring at the merchandise?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Just not the kind with binoculars. 6Loki adjusts his binoculars, clearly looking at Elwyn and Aurora
<Kit> <Elwyn> I guess it is kind of creepy, but technically he's not in the bar itself.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Wait till he tries to sneak peaks of you showering.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Flattering." 6She poses, an arm behind her head and winks. 1"I never would have figured Loki to stoop to something that ordinary, though."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> No, he doesn't have the balls to do it himself. He'ld just pay someone else to do it.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Sounds about right. Weren't you with him, though?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Define what you mean, with him.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Walked off the same shuttle. I don't really remember your name myself, but Cartel, right? How do you know him?
* Jennifer sips her iced tea quietly.
<DeathStar> 6* Jen would sip nothing. The glass is gone
* Jennifer blinks and looks around, frowning. "What the heck..."
<Kogitsune> 6It was as strong as battery acid, though, good riddance.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Well, I've never given you my name until today. 6She studies her. 1"I'm his replacement once I learn the ins and outs of this place.
<DeathStar> 6* A pink colored drink is now on the counter with Jen
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> 'Replacement?'
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Loki doesn't have what it takes to be a diplomat. His skills are elsewhere, atleast they were. He's not the same man he once was.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> What makes you say that?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Get to know him and you'll figure it out.
* Jennifer peers at it, frowning a little. "Weird..." *she sniffs it gently*
<DeathStar> 6* It smells pink
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora takes another sip of his tea. Loki sneers, his badmouthing senses tingling
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Mm, how would I know what he once was by getting to know him now?" 6She smirks.
* Jennifer rubs the back of her head and starts to get up.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> You ask me for video records of how he used to be and you compare.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Eh, the last thing I want to do is get more 'intimate' with a cartel man. Especially Loki.
<DeathStar> 6* A sniffle is heard under the counter at Jen's feet
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora eyes her nails for a second. 1"You saying there's something wrong with Cartel men?
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Nothing if you don't mind being a possession." 6She adjusts her posture to display her body more. 1"But these ass..ets are all mine, I'm afraid."
* Jennifer blinks and moves about to try and see under the counter. "Hello...?"
<DeathStar> 6* Athena's ears are drooped, sniffling. "No try Athena Special Pink Drink?"
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> That seems like an unfair judgment on all Cartel men.
* Jennifer blinks and smiles, she picks it up and takes a sip. "You shoulda told me it was from you silly."
<DeathStar> 6* It tastes of love.
* Jennifer giggles a bit. "Tastes like something wonderful."
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Is it now? Well, I guess I'm just unfair. Perhaps it's just one of those thing-- like my disliking for Earthlings. Too arrogant.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams. "Now get 10 others to try and see if Marcus will put on menu."
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Though they're fun to take a whip and leash to.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Interesting. I suppose it's not uncommon to hate others for things we see in ourselves.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Let me know how that works out for you." 6She smirks, licking her lips slightly. 1"Do tell if the latter sounds like fun, though."
* Jennifer nods to Elwyn and Aurora, "What about those two?"
<DeathStar> <Athena> Plan to give Elwyn some soon. 6* She nods.
<Jennifer> "I bet she'll like it." *she sips more*
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> It doesn't. 6She looks at her with a serious look. 1"I prefer to sleep with men that are submissive.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Oh? I know the perfect one.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Do you now?
<Kogitsune> 6Elwyn smiles devilishly, thinking of Kellin. 1"Too bad the good ones are always taken."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena slinks about the counter to spy on Elwyn, holding another glass of pink
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> I'll go either way myself, on both accounts. Not that I find many with a tempting whip to them. It's far too easy to find kittens to play with.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> They're only taken if you roll over and let them be.
<Kogitsune> 6Elwyn pauses, then nods slowly. 1"True.. but this one's got something rare. Best to let him be as he were.."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena sneaks up behind Elwyn, lifting the pink glass around in front of her face.
* Jennifer sips her drink more and watches the spectacle, humming gently.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Rare or not, if you want it you should take it.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> That's where I'll differ from most Cartel--" 6She halts, eyeing the glass.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora glances up from her glass of wine. 1"Why would you compare yourself with the majority of the Cartel?"
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter appears on the teleporter, moving towards the counter.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Elwyn try Athena's Special Pink Drink?
* Jennifer looks over at Carter, giving him a little smile.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> ..O-Okay, Athena." 6She peers at it suspiciously, then sips.
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> There's my number 2. 6He notes once he takes a seat.
<Jennifer> "Number two?"
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> Well, you don't actually think you're number one do you?
<DeathStar> 6* Elwyn would taste love!
<Jennifer> "I didn't know we were competing." *she sips her drink*
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora finishes her wine and sets the glass down.
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> We're not, you're not even in the game, kid.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Huh, this ain't bad, you should give it a whirl, Roury." 6She holds it out to Aurora.
* Jennifer peers at him slowly and smiles. "Well, just as long as that's clear."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Roury?
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> You're about as fun as being stuck in the rain. 6He says with a sigh, peering around for a server.
* Jennifer pouts and sips her drink. "So much for taking you off your guard."
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Yeah. 'right back, Roury." 6She trots over to Carter.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Yo, what'll y'want?
<Jennifer> "You should try the pink stuff."
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora slowly gets up, setting down her credits.
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter arches a brow at Elwyn. 1I want a Philly Cheesestake with fresh cut fries if you've got that. Oh and a Lemonade to drink.
* Jennifer peers at Carter slowly.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Pink lemonade? Bet you won't regret it.
<Kogitsune> 6Elwyn eyes Aurora. 1"Oyyy! Rouri, just try a sip or you'll break the idolkitten's heart."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena looks at Aurora all hopefully
<Jennifer> "Like the Cheesesteak huh?"
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> Who doesn't?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> If only to further along a deal between Athena and I. 6She takes a sip from it
<Jennifer> "I just remember you ordering that before. I'll have to try it myself." *she sips her drink of love*
<DeathStar> 6* Aurora would sip...LOVE!
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> It's different. 6She sets it down. 1"Did you talk to your parents about what we discussed earlier?
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods. "They think they should try 'managing' Athena for now for 20% of profits. If still interested, could set up meeting for you to talk to them. Athena bad at business." 6* She admits
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> 20%. And how do they plan on paying for everything?
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena not know.
<Kogitsune> 6Elwyn squints at Carter not responding, so she moves to take the pink glass from Aurora and tops it off with lemonade before giving it to Carter
* Jennifer looks between the two.
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> I asked for just Lemonade. I didn't respond because I figured my silence would give you the idea that no, no I didn't want Pink lemonade.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> It can be very overwhelming for those who've never done something like this before.
<Jennifer> "Oh give it a try."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena considers, then nods. "Could set up meeting tomorrow if want."
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Then maybe next time you won't be. And maybe your patients will assume by your silence that yes, yes you're incompetent and they should have gone with the nice, kind nurse.
<Kogitsune> 6Elwyn gestures at Jennifer.
* Jennifer rubs the back of her head.
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter leans back slightly and looks amused. 1Interesting. You know the strong bitchy type can be quite the turn on for some guys.
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> All because you were inconvenienced to talk... their blood on your hands... well, her's actually, but yeah.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I would love that. 6She pulls out her datapad, writing a note in it. 1"Let them know that I'll run the numbers so they can have an idea on what it costs.
<Jennifer> "She turns on the Atlean Ambassador." *she smiles a little*
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> A good doctor doesn't need to talk, he just needs to observe and listen. Asking all those questions, finding out all that history, well it's a nurses job. 6he glances to Jennifer, then looks back to Elwyn. 1Now get my Lemonade and my philly....please. 6He adds to be civil.
<Jennifer> "I'd just try the drink, you'll please a lady."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods, bowing. "Will do so. Thank you."
<Kogitsune> <Elwyn> Ahhh that's whyI prefer backwater docs. Better care, more personable and cheaper to boot. Food's Marcus' area, not mine. Now try the funny-looking liquid before you make the kitten cry, and I'll get your pansy drink in the meantime.
<Kogitsune> 6Elwyn moves behind the counter, hunting another glass.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers over at Carter, her ears picking up the convo. She gives him her best adorable look
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> For that look, I would be a horrible jerk if I didn't. 6He gives it a try.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> You're parents think I'm going to take advantage of you, don't they?
<DeathStar> 6 *Carter tastes...LOVE
<Jennifer> "Aww, he does have a heart of gold.

<DeathStar> 6* AThena tilts her head. "MOmma said Cartel could be tricky in business."
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> Lemony love. Not bad. 6He gives Athena a nod and sets the cup back.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> But yet they wanted to take a cut of 20%?
<DeathStar> <Athena> Momma get 19% and Da-Da 1%
<Kogitsune> 6Elwyn sets down some unloved lemonade for Carter
* Jennifer smiles.
<Jennifer> "How's your studying coming along?"
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Interesting that your own parents would take money from you, yet think I'd take advantage of you.
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter gives Elwyn a smile and drinks some of his Lemonade. 1Fine enough. Probably not as far along as yours since you're always in a book, but it's the understanding that matters most.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena tilts her head.
* Jennifer goes a bit red, drinking down more pink drink. "Just making good on my word..."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I'll explain things more during the meeting.
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> Of course, your promise to do good and all of that stuff. 6He nods to Marcus who steps out and sets down the good then steps into the back again.
<Jennifer> "Pretty much."
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> I don't know what that's all about...not that I care. But good luck with it. 6He begins to eat.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Kay. Will be there with Momma and Da-Da. 6* She gives Aurora a hug
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora awkwardly hugs back.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena holds up finger, bounds off, then bounds back with a cookie.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora takes the cookie. 1"Thank you."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena smiles happily.
<Chad`Winters> /me gives Athena, a business smile then
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora gives Athena a business smile, then moves for the telepad.
* Chad`Winters is now known as Chad-Sleep
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bounds over to Carter, leaning forward and smiling, holding out a hand. "Hi. I'm Athena."
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter pauses and puts the sandwich down, cleaning his mouth and then his hand, holding it out to shake. 1Hello. My name is Levi Carter.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Like Athena Special Pink Drink?
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> It wasn't bad at all.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams. "Thank you." 6* She does a little pose. "Would like some Athena Pie? Have two slices left." 6* She announces to Jen and Carter
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> Hmm. Maybe we'll see if I have any room left after this. 6He gestures to his half eaten sandiwch and his fries.
<Jennifer> "I'd love a slice." *she smiles at Athena*
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter gets back to eating.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bows, then bonds off, and later returns with pie for Jennifer, then moves to the karaoke, selecting a song and begins to sing, dancing to i
* Jennifer takes a bite, her eyes on Athena.
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter peers over his shoulder slightly, before looking back to his foot.
<Xan|Awayish> MRP: Food
<DeathStar> 6* Athena wiggles her hips as she dances to an instrumental part. One guy tosses credits at her like one would a performing sideshow
* Jennifer giggles softly.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena squints when one credits gets her ni the face, and she stops singing to sulk, her ears drooping
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter wipes his hands clean and gets to his feet, he moves towards the guy and peers at him. 1Tell me something. Was that funny?
<DeathStar> 6* The guy, smiling with his buddy, eyes Carter. "Yeah, it was. You see how her big ears went down?"
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> Where you from, pal? 6He pulls out a seat to sit down across from him.
<DeathStar> 6* He names some backwater human colony
<DeathStar> 6* Athena moves to sit at the counter, not accustomed to having things thrown at her.
* Jennifer frowns a little and moves over to Athena, hugging her gently. "You okay? I'm sure it was an accident."
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> Right, well around us civilized folks, throwing things at people is pretty damn rude. Now I just met her so I could be wrong, but she seems like a nice kid. A nice kid that doesn't deserved to have stuff thrown at her by some John or Jim who thinks it's funny. Why don't we act like respectable human beings and apologize?
<DeathStar> <Athena> Accident four times? 6* She tilts her head, frowning. "Felt emotions. Found funny."
<DeathStar> 6* The guy jerks. "It was just a little credit. If she can't handle that, then she's clearly a baby."
<Xan|Awayish> <Carter> Let me ask you something. Say that you often enjoyed to sing your heart out, and you were pretty proud of your talent so you decided you wanted to show that talent to everyone else. But what if I was out here in the crowd just booing and throwing shit at you? Even the strongest of men would probably be a little hurt by that, don't you think?
* Jennifer frowns more. "They were being mean then..." *she looks over at the men Carter's talking to, looking angry, she gets protective of Athena*
<DeathStar> 6* The man pauses, then nods, getting up. "You're right." 6* He moves over to Athena, who peers up, and begins to apologize. Athena's ears perk up some. <Athena> Thank you. Athena forgive." 6* The man then moves off. Athena peers at Carter, then bows her head at him. "Thank you. If do want pie, let Athena know whenever."
* Jennifer smiles now, relaxing.
<Jennifer> "Carter... that was cool."
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter gets to his feet and moves back to his place, to eat his food. 1No thanks needed, no point in having a bad situation turn worse if it could be avoided. 6He tells Athena, before pausing. 1Sure, I'll try that pie.
* Jennifer looks between them, looking quite happy now.
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter then glances to Jennifer and shrugs slightly. 1It's pretty damn hard to be an asshole all the time.
* Jennifer giggles a little.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena smiles, rising up and moving to the back; she returns with the pie, and a ticket for a front row seat to the concert. "Thank you again." 6* She notes. "Know not part of the Athena Fan Club, but Athena is Carter's fan." 6* She gives a peace sign
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter pauses and looks a bit surprised. 1Well. Thanks. 6He gives her a smile and slides the ticket into his pocket.
<Jennifer> "Good deeds don't go unrewarded."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena moves to clean up the credits from the floor, putting them in a jar for Marcus
<Jennifer> "Oh, Athena."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers over, tilting her head
* Jennifer motions her over. "C'mere sweetie."
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter finished his sandwich and half his fries then tries the pie.
<DeathStar> 6* The pie is the same pie Xanatos tried, blended with ingrediants that make it unique. Athena moves over to Jennifer obediently
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Carter pauses and arches a brow slightly, taking another bite he hmms. 1This is pretty delicious.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams
* Jennifer slips her 30 credits. "Almost forgot, my fan club fee."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena takes it, then bows. "Will get Jennifer her fan club information soon!"
* Jennifer grins softly. "Awesome."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena asks for her Datapad # so she can contact her
* Jennifer leans in and whispers it into her ear.
* Xan|Awayish is now known as Xanatos
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods.
<Xanatos> 6* Carter rolls his eyes. 1Whispering. Afraid I would try to call you?
* Jennifer grins a bit at Carter. "Why, do you want my number too?"
<Xanatos> <Carter> Hardly. I would rather call that angry girl, than you.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Want Athena's #?
<Xanatos> <Carter> Sure. You seem nice enough.
* Jennifer sighs a little and grabs her drink.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena says it outloud for htem both.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Jennifer and Levi going to replace Caduceus once graduate?
<Jennifer> "Replace...?"
<Xanatos> <Carter> That's the general idea.
<Xanatos> 6* Carter pockets his datapad, having put the number in.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Caduceus said not want to work here forever.
<Xanatos> <Carter> You didn't honestly think he was training us to work together with him, do you?
<Xanatos> NRP: did
* Jennifer rubs the back of her head. "Oh... well I suppose if we're offered the jobs when we do... I know I'll stay on."
<DeathStar> <Athena> But only one person can run Med Bay, right? 6* She tilts her head
<Xanatos> <Carter> At the rate we're going, it'll be a while. But when that time comes, I hope you don't mind losing to me.
* Jennifer shrugs. "I just want to practice medicine. If Carter makes the better one to take charge of it, then that's how it should be."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Then Jennifer will be Carter's nurse doctor?
<Xanatos> 6* Carter laughs at that.
* Jennifer blushes a little. "I--- I guess that's one way of putting it."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Will Jennifer wear cute nurse outfit? 6* She leans in eagerly, asking Carter mostly, since he'd be in charge of uniforms
<Xanatos> <Carter> I'm sure it'll be nice and demeaning.
<Jennifer> "I-I..."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena could get Momma to help design outfit
<Xanatos> <Carter> It sounds like I know who I'm going to have to talk to once I become the Head Doctor.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Make sure to emphasize breasts. Sick patients would appreciate.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena studies Jennifer's breasts, nodding in thought
* Jennifer looks away, sipping her drink shyly.
<DeathStar> <Athena> And Levi should wear suit of white, with a lab coat; sick female patients would find suavy and feel better.
<Xanatos> <Carter> I think my eating choices might be too much for a white suit. 6he peers towards the plate where his philly was.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Have two lab coats. One to shield when eating, one to look suavy in
<Jennifer> "She's got a point... though you'd think we'd have some kind of uniform already."
<Xanatos> <Carter> I'd rather not have a uniform, since it would probably be awful to look at.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena could help design suit for when become doctor
<Jennifer> "That'd be nice."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Need refills? 6* She asks the two
<Xanatos> <Carter> Sure. 6He nods, still thinking about it. 1I'm going to need a white fedora.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Will do! 6* She bounds off, then returns with Lemonade for Carter
<Jennifer> "Got any more of this pink stuff Athena?"
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods, moving to get a refill
<Xanatos> 6* Carter nods his thanks, drinking half of it in one go, then makes a face at the slight sour.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena mixes some things all secretatively, then brings it to Jennifer. She quickly says into the back. "Marcus, people like Athena Special Pink Drink!"
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus pokes his head out of the door. 1Does that mean you're going to tell me how it's made?
<DeathStar> <Athena> No, but will make plenty for Marcus to serve for a reasonable fee! 6* She smiles cutely
* Jennifer giggles a bit.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus narrows his eyes slightly and slowly slinks into the back.
<DeathStar> <Athena> ... very reasonable! ... Please? Only want 1% for each drink sold!
<Xanatos> <Marcus> How much do you plan to charge for each drink?
<DeathStar> <Athena> Marcus choice!
<Xanatos> <Marcus> How about half of the proceeds go to you, and the other half goes to the bar? You think that's fair?
<DeathStar> 6* Athena blinks. "More than 1%. Marcus sure?"
<Xanatos> <Marcus> It's your recipe, any more than half would be like stealing from you.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena just like making things. Will take 10%, how that?
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus rubs his chin and then nods. 1Alright. If that's what you want.
* Jennifer scratches her head and sighs.
<Xanatos> <Carter> ...I've never seen people actually trying to give away their share..
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams. "Make sure to add it to menu. Athena Special Pink Drink!" 6* She moves to begin making more
<Jennifer> "She definately needs a manager. She's too generous."
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus nods to her and moves to start changing a menu.
<Xanatos> <Carter> Money isn't always the most important thing...is something I would say if I was a complete idiot.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Oh, she has her eyes on the long time goal. This concert maybe be free, but that is to lure people in when she starts charging. Maybe I should manage her. MWAHAHAHA
* Jennifer rubs the back of her head. "It's needed to survive, but it isn't everything, Athena values people that are in her life over money. She's going to make a killing as an idol anyway."
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Can I be your manager, too, Nurse Doctor? I can manage your lines! Zing. Oh man, I'm on a roll. 6* He goes quiet, probably to tell someone of his epic burn - at least in his eyes
<Xanatos> <Carter> Maybe. 6He finished his lemonade and gets to his feet. 1But whoever said money can't buy happiness clearly never had any.
<Jennifer> "Not sure where that line came from."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena moves over after getting her inventions going. "Levi going? Hope to see again soon and at concert!"
<Xanatos> 6* Carter gives Athena a nod. 1I can't cook, so I'm sure you'll see me soon.
* Jennifer smiles, "See you later Carter."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena work tomorrow if want to try food.
<Xanatos> <Carter> Sounds good to me. 6He smiles slightly and then nods to Jennifer. 1Jen. 6He turns and moves for the teleporter, hitting a public zone to get to his room.
* Jennifer smiles a bit and looks back at Athena.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena moves to inspect her stuff, then the time, moving to bound off herself, waving at Jennifer and Marcus
* Jennifer waves back.
<Xanatos> 6* Marcus waves, working on adjusting all the menus
<DeathStar> 6* Athena pokes her head back. "Will get Jenny's info together tonight! Will send info to datapad tonight!"
* Jennifer smiles at her. "Cool, I'll look forward to it."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bounds away

<DeathStar> 6* Erevis lounges in 1B by the pond, wearing a bikini that barely covers anything, probably enjoying her last month or two before weight gain shows. She even has a flower in her hair. With her eyes closed, she seems peacefully asleep as CHIP simulates sunshine on her
<Xanatos> 6* A shadow blocks her sun briefly before sitting down beside her.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis mmms a bit, apparantly really having been asleep. She mumbles something about a morning kiss
<Xanatos> 6* Her sunlight is blocked momentairily once again before she would recieve a light kiss on the forehead.
<DeathStar> 6* Smiling, Erevis opens her eyes a bit.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos gives her a smirk. 1Enjoying yourself?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. Hello, Xanatos. 6* She smiles more warmly.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos shifts slightly to lay back beside her, pulling his arms behind his head. 1I feel overdressed.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You could remove your clothing. I would not protest.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I'm afraid I didn't bring my swimsuit.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That is not a problem. 6* She notes, perfectly straight faced
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos chuckles. 1Megumi's face would be very amusing to see if she walked out and I was in my birthday suit.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Indeed. If I had my powers, I would attempt to undress you just to see
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Lucky for me. I can choose to be modest if I want.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Unfortunate. 6* She shifts to peer at her drink, as if trying to will it to her as it's just out of her reach
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos peers at her for a second, then sits up and leans over to lift it up, bring it to her. 1It's a little odd, being back to square one isn't it?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis smiles thankfully, then nods. "Indeed. So often I attempt to pull things to myself with my mind and waste more time than actually using my hand. Though if I am to ever relearn, it is necessary to practice."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Yes, that's true. My abilties from Legion weren't all that strong to begin with, I can't even manifest anything anymore, the fire or the crystal or any of that.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am sure, with time, you will gain what you desire to relearn. 6* She sips her drink, then perhaps out of mischeviously, or the fact Megumi's a 0 in bed these days, shifts her body to try to look more appealing and provactive.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos looks amused. 1This outfit's really doing it for me. I think you may need to wear it from now on.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm. I do not know if ambassadors would take me seriously if I wore it when greeting them
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I guess that's a good point. Oh well, it would probably get tiresome to wear the same thing over and over again, huh?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I would not mind if others appreciated it. 6* She notes.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Well, I appreciate most of your clothing.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head. "Even the large coat I wear sometimes?"
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I have a broad respect for fashion, even those that cover up the parts I like.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Interesting
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Though I suppose I understand - you look pleasing in suits
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos smiles. 1I'd like to think I could pull off anything.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm. Anything?
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> The biggest part of pulling something off is confidence. So yes I think so, probably even girl clothes, since that's what I'm sure you're thinking about.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Indeed. I will enjoy dressing you up. 6* She seems to be amused
<Kit> <Megumi> Ah-hah." 6She muses, hitting the pause on her datapad recorder.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers back
<Kit> <Megumi> Hee. Money is kind of tight. But I wonder how much I could get for this.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> For what?
<Kit> <Megumi> Proof Durran would crossdress.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I believe only Chad Winters would be interested in such information
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> It's only worth something if I'm embarassed about it, right?
<Kit> <Megumi> Well, he makes more than I do.
<Kit> 6Megumi pauses, eyeing Xanatos.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I could make a bikini look good. 6He says with a cocky shrug.
<Kit> <Megumi> You... have no pride as a man.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Hmm. Maybe not.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis rises, beginning to take off her bikini suddenly, holding the top to Xanatos expectantly
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos arches a brow, peering at her. 1Now?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I desire to see it
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos takes it then peers towards Megumi, clearing his throat.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I guess Megumi really wants to see. 6He gets to his feet and pulls off his shirt, slowly getting the bikini on.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head, then reaches to remove the bottom part, holding it out
<Kit> <Megumi> As if he would seriously...
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos tilts his head, giving her a look.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You must wear both pieces for it to be complete.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos takes it, then smirks, glancing to Megumi now. 1Turn you back?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis stands there completely nude, having no problems with it, though she shifts her hair around enough to cover at least her breasts.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos offers out the shirt to Erevis.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis takes it, sliding it on, probably looking sexy in a woman-wearing-a-guy's-larger-shirt kind of way
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos smiles and then drop his pants, pulling the bottom on, which looks odd since he's larger than Erevis. 1..kinda tight. 6He flexes though.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head, clearly staring now, probably because it makes him look like he's wearing a tiny speedo
<Kit> 6Megumi pauses in a vacant way, then lifts her datapad and flashes a picture of Xanatos.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...I will... add this... with caption to my... book...
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I hope the caption is, "Oh my lord look at that string."
<Kit> <Megumi> Something like that..
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers at Megumi. "As you can see, his penis is reasonable size, unlike Chad Winters. You should not fear it as a 'big snake'.
<Kit> <Megumi> ...I am like two-thirds the size of an average human, beloved." 6She puffs her cheeks.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am aware. But I have placed things larger into you than Xanatos.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos rubs the back of his neck, getting slightly red cheeked.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> The device that got you pregnant was at least 9 inches
<Kit> <Megumi> Seriously!?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I was careful. 6* She puffs her cheeks
<Kit> 6Megumi eyes Erevis with a frightful look
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ...do not give me that look, you clearly were not even aware of the size!
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos pauses and peers down at himself, tilting his head slightly.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers over at Xanatos again, glancing him over again. "Is something wrong?"
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos glances up quickly and glances left then right. 1What?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> You are staring at your own penis.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> It's been a while and everything. And with all the forgetfullness that's come after the wind thing, I guess I was just wondering if I still remember that.
<Kit> <Megumi> 'That?'
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Yeah...that.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> What is that?
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Sex is something that's pretty important to a man's ego.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> O-Oh. 6* She blushes suddenly, peering to the side. "I-I am sure you are still good at it."
<Kit> <Megumi> ...Something I should know?
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head. "About sex?"
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos tilts his head the opposite direction, peering at Megumi.
<Kit> <Megumi> You two seem more friendly than normal.
<Kit> 6Megumi gestures to Erevis naked, for one.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... He has come over often when I am without clothes. .... If it bothers you, though, I will be more careful
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I could leave. 6He points.
<DeathStar> 6* She bows her head apologetically to Megumi, then shakes her head. "I will go prepare dinner. I have been here long enough." 6* She moves for the house
<Kit> 6Megumi glances at Xanatos. 1"Quite cowardic, always opting to run away." 6She shakes her head, then shrugs, moving for the house as well, eyeing the picture on her datapad.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos hmms and pulls off the swimsuit top and moves for his portion of the house.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps into the kitchen, then eyes everything she has, trying to decide what to make. She sends a datapad to everyone that lives there going: "What would you like to eat tonight? ^_^v"
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin comes running into the kitchen and doubles over, panting.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis blinks at Kellin
<DeathStar> 6* Athena leaps onto his back, wearing one of Megumi's cat outfits.
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin jerks and topples forward onto his face.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Merowl1
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin slowly peers up. 1Lasagna pleeeeeaaaassseee.
<Kit> 6Megumi heads up for their room quietly, texting back 'Something spicey. "´ ^`"' as usual.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis jots notes, nodding a few times; Athena bounds after MEgumi, then tackles her onto the bed, nuzzling her
<Kit> 6Megumi faceplants into the bed with an argh, then smirks at Athena, hugging her.
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin pushes himself to his feet and rubs his shoulder slightly. 1You lost your pants, ma'am.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not wear pants often, unless I am 'suiting up'.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena hugs her back, cuddling against her affectionately. "Athena going to sing Mommas special song when concert comes."
<Xanatos> <Kellin> I used to not wear pants, but I got in trouble.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Why is that?
<Xanatos> <Kellin> It was rude to the girls.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Interesting. Why?
<Xanatos> <Kellin> Dad didn't think I should tease them.
<Kit> <Megumi> My special song...?" 6She blinks a few times.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena smiles, pawing at Megumi
<DeathStar> <Erevis> How would you 'tease' them without having pants?
<Xanatos> <Kellin> I have a very cute butt. 6He wiggles it and smiles.
<DeathStar> 6* She tilts her head. "I believe Kitten's is much cuter."
<Xanatos> 6* Kellin slumps and sniffs, walking off to sad Hulk music.
<DeathStar> <ERevis> I will make lasagna as you requested. 6* She notes in concilation to third cutest butt prize
<Xanatos> <Kellin> Kay. Thanks. 6He chirps, moving into the living room.
<Kit> <Megumi> The song I know on flute?
<DeathStar> 6* Athena shifts, humming the song, since she has no flute on her
* Dias-FreeFood is now known as Chad`Winters
<Kit> <Megumi> Mh. Sweetie, did you... by chance, learn to play the one I gave you?
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods
<Kit> 6Megumi blinks, then smiles warmly, patting Athena on the head.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena bounds up. "One moment!" 6* She bounds away, then returns with a flute. Closing her eyes, she begins to play the tune
* Xanatos is now known as Xan|Awayish
<DeathStar> 6* Athena plays a few notes, then beams. "Want to save rest for concert!"
<Kit> 6Megumi nods, smiling happily.
* Ariel has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis messages everyone to let them know there will be Spicy Lasagna. She goes "for Kitten" on the spicy and adds =^_^=
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Drasek steps into the kitchen from the outside, peering around.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis waves, her oversized shirt slipping a bit when she does. She is adding spices to the lasagna
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> 'Lo, luv. Nice shirt. 6He notes, moving to the fridge to get a beer.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Thank you. I traded it for a bikini with Xanatos
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> B...bikini? Guess the bloke wanted somthin to sniff and dream of you, eh?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We made a bet on whether he could look good in a bikini
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Ugh, bet I already know the answer to that, then.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Oh?
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> The thought of that git in a bikini just turns my stomach a bit. But to each their own...you know, if you're into that sort of thing, eh?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I was in it beforehand, so yes, I was 'into it'
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Drasek rubs the side of his head then snorts a laugh. 1I gotcha. Not bad on his part, trading clothes with you. Nice and innocent way to see you in you skivvies. Which in your case is nonexistent.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Skiv....vis?
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Bloomers, undergarments.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Bloomers. Bloom...ers. Skiv...vies. 6* She begins to repeat the word as she typically does when finding a new word that fascinates her
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Drasek leans back against the counter, popping open his beer. He's used to this, so he simple sips on the beer for now.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> What sort of bloomers do you wear, Drasek? Are they nice skivvies?
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Believe the style is boxer briefs. Bit like those downright awful lookin underwear, but with a sexier look to them.
<DeathStar> 6* She tilts her head.
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Gonna guess you want to see them, then?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I am curious
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Drasek sets his beer aside, rubbing his face slightly before glancing left and then right, he undoes his belt then slips his slacks down and does a slight turn for her to see before pulling them back up.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Interesting; why would you not wish to wear something smaller?
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Being sexy isn't always about showing off every little bit you can, is it? Sometimes the lack of what you say can be even more enticing. It's why wearing your little outfits can be more alluring to Megumi than just straight up seeing you in the buff.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I was referring more to comfort.
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> These are form fittin, quite comfortable, don't even know they're there sometimes.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see. Perhaps I should try wearing boxer briefs.
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Haven't ever seen a gal in em before. Might be interesting thing to try.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Do you have clean spares?
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Aye, luv. I'll get you one, let you try it out. 6He moves for his room.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis gets the lasgana cooking as he does
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Drasek steps back into the kitchen and draps them over her head as he moves back and grabs his beer, taking sips from it.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head with the boxers on, then takes them and slides them on, shifting the shirt up so Drasek can see.
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Drasek tilts his head and nods once. 1There's certainly an appeal there. Goes along with the shirt as well. Bloke's always find it sexy when a girl is wearin their clothes, no idea why.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Should I dress up Zephyr in your clothing to see if you find any appeal?

<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Oh I know there's some appeal there, luv. She wore a button up shirt of mine once and I couldn't take my eyes off her.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Interesting. Perhaps I should wear kitten's clothing
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Not sure it works with other women, don't know much about how women think.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I see.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis goes to return the boxers.
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Ah you can keep 'em, luv. Maybe you can wear em for Xanatos sometime.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm. Would he not get jealous if he knew they were yours?
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Doesn't have to know their mind, does he? Could just say you wanted to try something to see how he'd react or some nonsense like that, yeah?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That would be true, I suppose.
<Xan|Awayish> 6* Drasek crushes the empty can and tosses it in the trash. 1It's odd to see so many people about the ship. I guess I got used to our smaller numbers.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I imagine we will gather even more with time
* Chad`Winters is now known as Chad-Sleep
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> That so? Gives me a chance to work a bit more with fresh faces, I guess.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> How have things been with you lately, Drasek? I rarely get time to speak with you with so much work to do
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Things are as well as they can be, I'd say. Especially with all that Legacy nonsense over with. What about you luv? I was a bit shocked to see Xanatos movin into the zone, guess I missed the part where he and Megumi stopped hatin each other. But that's good, yeah?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> They do not hate one another, but they are not 'close' yet. I confess I desired him close by. It will save on power, as a logical reason, but also because the children love him to death and Tiny Kitten loves having him at the breakfast table. And I enjoy his company as well
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It also has allowed Ao to move into 1C below us, and she is now closer.
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Y'know I don't see that firecracker much anymore. 6he says aloud as he thinks on it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Indeed. I worry about her sometimes.
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Could get her to move into this zone as well, give her Ariel's place since it's off to itself, right? It's open up 1C for another group of people that might be nice to have closer. Chad's lot or somethin like that.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm. That is a good idea. I will ask Xanatos to ask her about it. She is fond of him
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Well that's what I'm here for luv, brilliant ideas at a low cost.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Oh? What is the cost for your brilliant idea? 6* She tilts her head, amused
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> For you luv, not a thing. But others, well the fees negotiable.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I believe you have spent too much around the Cartel. 6* She notes, tilting her head even more. "Though I suppose adapting some of their practices in this day and age will be necessary."
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> It really could be useful. Besides, I'm not cruel, I'd never put someone out just for money. But I've got a girl now and I'd like to be able to buy her nice things from time to time. So credits are pretty essential.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods. "I understand. If you ever need a loan, let me know. I love Alpha Zephyr as well, though in a different manner."
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Ah I appreciate it luv, but it might not be the best example of my reliability if I have to borrow money to support her, eh?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I Do not know. If Kitten needed to borrow money to give me something, I would respect the fact she reached out for help
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Thought about startin a business actually.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Indeed? What sort of business?
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Haven't really gotten that far, just trying to be practical in my thought process. Talked to a few blokes from Earth about managing a chain for clothing or maybe even a beauty salon or somethin like that. I know how gals love to spend their hard earned cash.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> If you are interested in a chain for clothing, I know Tiny Kitten said idols needed their own clothing line; perhaps you two could work together
<Xan|Awayish> <Drasek> Hmm. Maybe if I get one place doing well I could expand and open more locations. 6He muses, thinking about it.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Indeed. If you require store space here on PAX, let me know
* Xan|Awayish is now known as Xanatos
<Xanatos> <Drasek> You'll most definitely be the first to know, I'm just tryin to get things sorted out. Save me a spot, maybe and if it falls through you'll have an extra place to charge for.
<DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods once. Zephyr creeps down the stairs to spy on them
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Thought about a porn shop. Y'know there's always a lonely git that would keep me in business. 6he notes with a laugh.
<DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr jerks, only really catching porn shop. "Why the hell do you need a porn shop when you have me?!"
<Xanatos> 6* Drasek pauses and then laughs harder, holding his sides.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> That's not funny! 6* She puffs her cheeks. Erevis tilts her head
<Xanatos> <Drasek> You stink at spying, bit.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I---I...errrrraaagh!
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Whoa now, bit. 6He holds up his hands..
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr leaps at him, despite knowing her tiny size will more likely just make him stumble
<Xanatos> 6* Drasek pauses, leaning against the counter, he steps forward to catch her before he hurts herself.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glares at him, squirming as she's held. "The only thing yo ubetter be getting a porn shop is something for me to poke you in the rear with!" 6* She huffs
<DeathStar> <Erevis> He was speaking of opening a shop, not buying things from it. 6* Zephyr stops, then eyes Drasek. <Zephyr> You want to run a porn shop?
<Xanatos> <Drasek> It was a joke, bit. Like I said, atrocious at spying.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Hmph. Maybe I wasn't joking about getting a sex toy to poke your ass.
<Xanatos> <Drasek> I get you're ten kinds of kinky luv, but really that's just too far.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Wuss.
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Bloody right I'm a wuss when it comes to my arse. Gonna get a tattoo above that says, 'Exit only.'
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Just don't ask to poke around mine, then
<Xanatos> 6* Drasek snorts and leans back slightly. 1You know I'm too talented, you woulnd't be able to hold out.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Hmph!
<DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr leans against him now; Erevis smiles at the two, amused, and moves to check on the food
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Which would you rather visit, luv. A clothing store, or a beauty salon?
<DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr blinks, tilting her head. "I guess clothing store. I've never actually ever been in a beauty salon. Most of my hair styles, I got from Megumi's knowledge of such things, hence why I can do so many different Asian styles if it suits me. The rest I've picked up from mom and Erevis - and Athena recently, who seems to know a new style every day
<Xanatos> <Drasek> I'm not wanting an empire or any of that, but if I could run a shop, maybe give some folks a place to work while making a little extra from it as well, thought it might be good.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Huh, didn't know you were interested in that. 6* She looks impressed.
<Xanatos> <Drasek> I'm a bum, sure, but a bum that's had his hand in little odds and end. Workin for Darien was pretty beneficial.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Huh, you should contact Darien; he'd be a good buisness partner since he's made of money
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Bloody hell I hadn't even thought about that.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Behind every man is a great woman
<Xanatos> <Drasek> They're just so bloody short y'can't see em.
<DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr jerks, then mock stomps his foot, not really aiming to hurt
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Oof. Fine, fine.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> See if I help you now
<Xanatos> <Drasek> But bit, you help me, you GET things.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I should get to be a business partner, too
<Xanatos> <Drasek> If I'm workin with Athena, and Darien. That'd be splittin stuff four ways. 6He points out.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hmphs, walking off with her arms crossed
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Don't you walk off when I'm talkin to you!
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'm going to go sit on the couch like a good sit-at-home girlfriend and wait on my gifts!
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Fine, you want in? Well you're gonna have to work!
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Oh, I'll work. One look at me and people would enter the store just like that
<Xanatos> <Drasek> You want to be the model for my store then? Excellent, I'll call up an old buddy to get a date lined up for a photoshoot.
<DeathStar> 6 *Zephyr jerks. "M-Maybe Athena would be better..."
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Oh no. It's already done. Y'know I heard there's this new style of when a girl's showin off the clothing, she's wearin only it.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> .... ATTHEEEEENA
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Wait, that's brilliant. We'll have to posin together.
<Xanatos> NRP: you
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr turns bright red. "W-Why not get Erevis to pose with her? O-or Megumi, they'd look like twins.:
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Twins, really? Think it's a bit overplayed, don't you?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Really? 6* She blinks.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> A-Anyway, I think they'd like twins more than seeing me."
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Nonsense, you're beautiful, you'd be brilliant, honestly.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... 6* She blushes a bit. "But I don't have any of the big assets most guys like. At least not yet." 6* She eyes her breasts
<Xanatos> <Drasek> You'd be surpised by the amount of blokes that don't really care for big assets just as long as the girl is sexy.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> And I'm sexy, huh?
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Pretty damn sexy to me. 6He pauses. 1When you're not tryin to beat me up, that is.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Oh, so I'm never sexy then? 6* She jokes
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Occassionally there's those real gem moments that stick with a bloke. 6He smiles.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Hmph. I guess I could pose for SOME clothes...
<Xanatos> <Drasek> That's the spirit! 6He reaches out to grab her and pull her into a hug.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hugs him back, smiling
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Oh. How'd you think Revi looks in my knickers? 6He motions.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr looks over, then jerks. "I'm not asking how she got in them."
<Xanatos> <Drasek> I gave em too her. Since she was curious how comfortable boxer briefs were.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I see. How are they? <Erevis> I prefer to be nude, or my silk panties that one can barely feel, but otherwise, they are nice.
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Bein that I'd look downright odd in the panties, this is my best bet next to bein nude, and we all know how that'd be bad.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> It's true, he'd knock things over whenever he turned. 6* Erevis stares, not getting the joke
<Xanatos> 6* Drasek chuckles, shaking his head. 1Now I was more thinking that I'd end up poking some git's eye out and then there'd be a lawsuit and it'd be this whole thing that would just be far too convuluted.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> You're not that big.
<Xanatos> 6* Drasek oofs and holds his chest. 1Think I might need to go mope for a bit, now.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Lets go 'mope' together. 6* She takes his hand, leading him up the stairs
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Poke an eye...with what? 6* She mumbles, clearly not used to huge penises like Chad's
<Xanatos> <Drasek> Some other time, Revi. 6He calls out, being led along.

<Kit> 6Elwyn sits across from Megumi, oddly enough, chatting about something in a side booth. Seeing as she's in the maid uniform, clearly she's 'on duty' though it may not look like it.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena runs around in her outfit
<Kit> <Megumi> Yes, we are supposed to meet... soon.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena hops onto Megumi's lap with a plate of Athena Pie
<DeathStar> 6* In the other is a pink drink, which she offers to Megumi eagerly
<Kit> <Megumi> It is quickly becoming quite the public private chat, however." 6She blinks at Athena.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora steps inside, wearing a relaxed business suit, a folder under her arm. She glances around for a moment then moves over to the booth Elwyn and Megumi are in. 1"Megumi Zhenmei it would seem.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena made drink! Athena's Special Pink Drink!
<Kit> <Megumi> So I heard." 6She pats Athena's head, eyeing the glass, then nods to Aurora. Her eyes are closed, but she extends a hand nontheless
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora eyes Elwyn across from Megumi then she eyes Megumis' hand, shaking it briefly. 1"I thought this was a meeting between yourself, Durran and I.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Da-Da not come. 6* Her ears droop
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I see that. And her? 6She motions at Elwyn
<Kit> <Elwyn> Oh, I just felt like hanging out, don't mind me." 6She grins, patting beside her.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I do tho. I prefer to conduct my businesses with the people it's related to
<DeathStar> <Athena> Elwyn is Athena's friend
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I see. 6She eyes Elwyn for a second then takes a seat beside her. She puts the folder down as she looks over at Megumi. 1"Athena says that you and Durran offered to manage her after I offered my services to her.
<Kit> <Megumi> If it would make her comfortable, of course I would.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena tries to get Megumi to drink some
<Kit> 6Megumi takes it without looking and draws a long drink.
<DeathStar> 6* She drinks love!
<Chad`Winters> At from what I understood is...6She glances inside her folder. 1"..to be 20%. 19 for you and 1 percent for and I qoute, Da-Da."
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Aurora
<Kit> <Megumi> Hm, you wrote it down.
<Kit> 6Elwyn peers between the two, resting on an elbow. One could picture a set of black ears and a set of tails wagging in mischief-- no, wait, those are real.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> It seems like a generous cut for a parent, but then again, most parents then manage they're kids tend to be greedy. 6She pulls out her datapad, setting it down now.
<Chad`Winters> NRP: that
<Kit> <Megumi> Am I really so greedy?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Considering your relationship to Athena, yes. 6She writes something down on her datapad
<DeathStar> 6* Athena tilts her head, frowning at Megumi being called greedy
<Kit> <Megumi> Hm. I see. Then what would you are you saying to this greedy parent?
* Chad`Winters glances at Athena, her hand jotting another note. 1"I apologize if I come off as insulting, Athena. I have seen how some parents have become....overbearing in this area.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Momma Megumi takes care of Athena.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Much like any parent should.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora looks at Megumi now. 1"I don't understand."
<Kit> <Megumi> Understand what?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Your previous question.
<Kit> <Megumi> If you believe I merely seek to take advantage, what are we talking for?
<Kit> 6Elwyn smiles, eyeing Aurora.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos appears on the teleporter moving over to the booth, adjusting his suit slightly. 1Sorry I'm late, did I miss anything fun? 6He pauses and peers between them.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> It's simple. I see the potential in Athena to become something great and to make a modest profit in return off from it. 6She pauses as she eyes Xanatos.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers at Xanatos, looking happy he showed. She leaps at him
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos pauses and catches her, giving her a smile.
<Kit> <Elwyn> The part where she called Meg greedy." 6She grins.
<Kit> <Megumi> Is it true, Durran?
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Is what true? That's you're greedy? Well it depends, I guess.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena holds on, peering back down
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora waits patiently
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> IF you didn't get the 19%, would you continue to help Athena even then?
<Kit> 6Megumi finally looks a little unamused, narrowing her eyes at Xanatos.
<Chad`Winters> 6She then stands up and holds out a hand to Durran to shake his. 1"It's nice to have you join in on this."
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos pauses and awkwardly offers his hand holding Athena.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora nods then sits down. 1"Let me ask you a question, Megumi. Do you currently have an income?
<Kit> <Megumi> Yes.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> And what is your monthly income?
<Kit> <Megumi> That is rather private, but five hundred credits.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora jots it down. 1"And Durran, what is your current income?
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> The Same.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora makes a note. 1"And do you both plan on paying equally to further Athena's career?"
<Kit> <Megumi> Pardon?
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I already thought of that. Being that CHIP is essentially Erevis' ship, it won't cost to have concerts here. So we can use the income from those concerts to put towards her career. Well a portion of it I should say.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Nothing in this world is free...6She pauses to look at Durran. 1"And you believe it is fair to not charge Athena to use this ships resources. 6She write something down. 1"And what if somebody else decides to use this concert hall? Would they be allowed the same benefits?"
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Probably not.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Probably? 6She studies Durran now
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena helped build Concert Hall! 6* She says proudly
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> And you're not worried about any issues of unfairness and unequality that may arise from this?
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> No. We could give discounts for first time performers since we're a new location. But Athena put enough work into that Hall to merit a few free performances.
<Kit> 6Megumi stares between the two, sitting back. Elwyn snickers.
<Chad`Winters> I see. 6She studies her notes for a moment. 1"Tell me, do you know what the average costs are to advertise and promote a new singer?
<Chad`Winters> NRP: Aurora again
<Kit> <Megumi> Yes, actually.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> And you believe you both can afford this on your salaries?
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I have some money put back that I would gladly use for Athena.
<Kit> <Megumi> I have no doubt Athena's talents would repay any debt it incurs. With the credit system considered for PAX's premise, it would be no concern.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> A lovely thing to do. 6She pulls out a piece of paper and slides it over to Durran. 1"These are the projected numbers that I believe, with my managing skills, she will achieve. Alongside that are the projected costs to promote Athena in the major systems.
<Kit> <Megumi> Paper aside, are you asking for a percentage, Miss Aurora?
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos takes it and peers it over, then extends it over to Megumi.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> All I'd ask are a modest 10% cut from ticket sales but what I bring to the table is guaranteed sold out venues that extend beyond PAX.
<Kit> <Megumi> Only ticket sales?
<Chad`Winters> <Auroa> Consider the ticket sales a testing ground. If things do bloom, which I do believe they will. There will be endorsements, commercials, tv shows possibly. Which again I would ask a modest cut from, nothing more then the standard 5% finders fee.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena blinks at the commericals and TV shows. "Athena just like to sing and pose."
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos hmms and holds up a slight hand. 1Venues beyond PAX is still a ways from now. So for now we need to focus on building her fanbase before we move on to that next step, right? So anything past that can be put on the backburner for now.
<Kit> 6Megumi tilts her head. 1"I still decline."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Which I can bring easily. 6She looks at Xanatos
<DeathStar> 6* Athena tilts her head the opposite way of Megumi
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos hmms and then glances to Athena. 1What do you think?
<DeathStar> <Athena> Over Athena's head. Athena just like to sing and pose. 6* She notes sheepishly
<Kit> <Megumi> Our way of thinking is perhaps orientated differently indeed. I would seceed to five percent of accounts involving transactions, but finder's fees I would decline. Expenses you incur performing these tasks I would ask details of and we would tally for reimbursement, but unless it entails a transaction-style account of your own doing I would leave it to Athena to compensate you.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Before you decide, let me add one clause to this. 6She cups her hands together. 1"If you decide that at any time you find that I'm taking advantage or anything of the such, you may cancel the contract.
<Kit> <Megumi> That is, according to her belief in your performance-- this is, of course, after applying the twenty percent dividend I previously mentioned, before all such expenses are performed.
<Kit> 6Megumi gestures slightly. 1"I think you misunderstand, after all, though she might lack experience, she is by no means a child, so I perfectly trust her to handle your compensation herself. Fees and percents tied to things of intangible amounts beyond concerts and transactions shouldn't be applicable."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena looks baffled at everything Megumi said, like a confused kid
<Kit> <Megumi> It should, after all, make you work that much harder for her exposure if it's based on performance. Although you should know, it is also directly tied to your personal relationship with her, no matter how you are involved with Athena, that is how it is.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> 10 percent is a fair number considering it's half of what you asked for. Which allows Athena extra money to spend on herself of gifts returned back to you. The 5% finders fee is essentially a low marginal number to compensate for the paperwork that would entail from dealing with any possible endorsements that would result in a broader marketing of her overall cuteness.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Alongside that, she's also given security from rabid, obsessed fans at no cost.
<Kit> 6Megumi smiles a bit. 1"I am not negotiating. This 'security' and such is more things that I would expect if you actually cared for a 'client' and what would be a personal friend, likely."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers over at Jennifer at rabid, obsessed fans
<Kit> <Megumi> Of course, she is more than welcome to accept such an offer herself.
* Jennifer is quietly eating a meal, oblivious as she reviews some notes she's studying.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos watches them for a moment, considering all of this himself.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Maybe she's not used to having friends, eh?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> It's obvious that you care about your daughters well being. But it's also obvious that you would prefer to get as much for free as possible. This music industry isn't as clear cut as you'd like to believe, and what I bring to the table that Durran and yourself cannot, is guarantee's that whatever venue she wants to play at whatever time she wants to play during, she can get.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I can guarantee that she get's exactly what she wants, to sing and pose and become a star that people clamor to see.
<Kit> <Megumi> Were that the case, you would make her quite happy, I suppose. She would be more inclined to reward you properly as well.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena whispers to Xanatos. "All this confusing. Da-Da understand?"
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos peers at her and gives a half shrug.
<Kit> <Elwyn> I remember making a deal like this once. I think I lost my pants.
* Jennifer looks over at Elwyn, blinking a bit.
<Kit> <Elwyn> It's okay, though. I wasn't wearing any anyway.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I do not work on commission in that aspect. Infact, if you wanted to be technical, I'm already binding myself by going on ticket sales at first. The more tickets sold, the more fans she has, and the more money I make which allows me to reinvest in the more venues she plays at.
<Kit> <Megumi> So you would prefer to consolidate to merely that and skip the other two compensations entirely? It would be more economical for Athena.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> At first?
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> As I stated first, ticket sales first, then when endorsements and such came along, a 5% finders fee.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Athena won't want to do that.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> If she chooses not to go with them at the time, then it's obvious I make nothing off them.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Promised to endore Uncle Drasek's underwear!
<DeathStar> *endorse
<Kit> <Megumi> Then I would advise you to consider my words even more, as they appear to benefit you in the long run.
<DeathStar> <Athena> And Chef Marcus' bar!
<DeathStar> 6* Athena taps chin, trying to remember who else wanted her
<Kit> 6Megumi opens one eye to peer at Aurora. 1"It might not make sense to you, since you seem all-business, and it may be inconvenient and more work at first, but in the long run, you establish a relationship with Athena that is profitable to you both emotionally and financially moreso than your 'finder's fees' and such."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> And why should I believe that you'd not influence her to not reward me? 6She looks at Megumi no.
<Kit> <Megumi> You can believe whatever you want, but trust when I say that if I cannot have someone agree to invest in Athena's life personally, I want nothing to do with them, or have them around her.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena leans in to Xanatos. "Da-Da should help endorse Uncle Drasek's underwear, too."
* Jennifer returns to her eating.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos pauses and arches a brow, he chuckles. 1I don't think that'd be a good idea.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> It's obvious that you've gained a certain....view of Cartel doings. You believe, because of Loki and Iceheart no doubt, that the Cartel care only about one thing.
<Kit> <Elwyn> What's so special about this underwear?
<DeathStar> 6* Athena shrugs. "Not seen yet."
<Kit> <Megumi> Not at all, Miss Aurora. I know very little about the Cartel. Although if you put it that way, I am quite fond of Iceheart. She is quite invested in a very good friend of ours.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Shouldn't endorse something you've never seen, kiddo. Bad habit.
<DeathStar> <Athena> But Uncle Drasek asked. Love Uncle Drasek
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Had it not been for Iceheart we would have probably never gotten to the point we're at currently.
<Kit> <Megumi> As I said, this is condition I would have for anyone seeking business or anything else with Athena.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora pulls out a piece of paper and gives it to Athena, it's the projected number of fans Athena can guarantee to her.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers at it, tilting her head
<Chad`Winters> 6It's pretty big, probably something most idols would fap over.
<Kit> 6Megumi seems more amused than anything at Aurora's number pushing.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Big number?
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora nods. 1"And I believe it'll get bigger.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena want to begin small - like knowing all fans.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Be hard to remember this many names.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora considers as she write something down. 1"You'd prefer smaller venues at first then work your way up?
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> We can handle smaller venues, that's what I suggested that if we ever wanted to go 'larger' we could certainly ask for you assistance then, but until then, we really do not need your help.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Noble. 6She taps her datapad as she thinks.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena rattles off 14 names, including Aurora's.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> There's nothing noble about it. 
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I was talking about Athena.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos pauses and then nods slightly. 1That's still not noble, that's just being a good person.
<DeathStar> <Athena> All idols should know and respect fans.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Words sell. Fans that believe that the person they idolize and revere know their name are more likely to stay true and continue to buy tickets.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> And if she's honest about wanting to know all her fans, then fans will love her even more.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> You're not telling me anything I don't already know.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena like fans. Why not want to know them? 6* She looks confused
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> Because some musicians care only about being the next big thing.
* Jennifer finishes her meal, picking up her stuff from the table.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena likes when person is happy when hearing Athena. 6* She beams.
<Kit> 6Megumi peers between the two, wondering if Aurora will go with it or continue prying at Athena.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> A rare trait.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> If that is all, I think we're done here. If Athena ever wants to have as many fans as you've projected you will most certainly be the first we come too.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora closes her folder. 1"Very well." 6She stands up now. 1"It was a pleasure to talk to you all."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Thank you for taking the time. 6He says with a nod.
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I believe every possible venture is worth taking the time for. 6She bows her head slightly to Durran.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena rises and bows politely to Aurora.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora bows equally back to Athena. 1"And when you're ready to expand your career, I hope that you remember me."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena will. Never forget fan
<Kit> <Megumi> What a pity.
* Jennifer moves over to the bar and takes a seat, tucking her study material away.
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora grabs her datapas and folder. 1"Well if you'll excuse me, I have further business to attend to."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods. "Hope to see at concert."
<Chad`Winters> <Aurora> I hope to see how you blossom.
<Kit> <Megumi> When you are likewise ready to invest something besides money, you are always welcome to visit again as well.
<Kit> 6Megum closes her eyes again. 1"I may be taking twenty percent, but it is neither for me nor Xanatos."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena tilts her head, still not really getting what Megumi is saying, but is clearly going with Xan and Megumi's decision in business matters
<Chad`Winters> 6Aurora just nods to Megumi then turns and moves off.
<Kit> <Megumi> When I was staying with beloved, besides teaching, I wound up managing the assets left by your predecessor." 6She peers at Xanatos.
<Kit> <Megumi> I fear left to beloved, she would spend it on this or that, and before we know it, she would own one of everything in the galaxy if not for knowledge and curiousity. This." 6She nods to Athena. 1"Is her child, after all."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> You're making that up Megumi. Erevis is always careful with money. 6He points out.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams at being called Erevis' kid, oblivious
<Kit> 6Megumi just eyes Xanatos.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos just offers a smile.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena takes a bite of pie, peers around, then kisses Megumi to transfer the pie, since she hasn't touched it
<Kit> <Megumi> Uh-huh. You believe what you will, to--erk!
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I know Erevis. 6he says simply, before reaching out pat Athena's head and move for the teleporter.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena merowls, offering pie to him, too, and a pink glass
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos pauses and reaches out to take them.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena beams. "Athena made both."
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos pauses and sets them down, kneeling to try them both. 1Mmm. That's good.
* Jennifer peers over at the three quietly.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena smiles, then hugs them both together. "Athena love Momma and Da-Da. Business talk hurt head, but Athena trust both."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> We'll make sure you get everything you want, I promise.
<DeathStar> <AThena> Athena believe. Athena just want to sing and make fans. And pose. 6* She holds up her hands like paws, going for a cute, then shifts to give a seductive pose, a hand on her thigh and one eye winking
* Jennifer hops up and walks over, rubbing the back of her head a bit shyly.
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos rubs her head with a smile and stands back up.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers at Jennifer, smiling. "Hi, Jenny. Da-Da, this is Jenny. Fan #14."
* Jennifer steps up near Athena. "Hey." *she giggles a bit at that* "Mr. Durran."
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> I'm well aware of who she is. 6He points to his eyes then to Jen.
<Chad`Winters> 6Loki sneaks in after a moment then moves over to Athena. 1"Tell me you manage blocked her."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Oh. You think she cute? 6* She tilts her head at the eye point
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers at Loki, tilting her head, confused
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena not understand.
* Jennifer smiles. "Mr. Durran was a good friend of my Dad. And he hired me to be a doctor in training."
* Jennifer looks at Xan a bit meekly.
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> You remember a Warren that I've talked about Athena? Jennifer is his daughter from another reality.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Oh. Hi, reality traveler!
<Jennifer> "I-... Yeah, I suppose I am." *she rubs the back of her head* "Though this is home now."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena like CHIP. Home, too
<Kit> <Megumi> If you mean kept Aurora from managing her-- no. We did not. Though she chose not to as well, for the time being.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Jenny like CHIP, too?
<Jennifer> "It's nice here." *she nods*
<Xanatos> <Xanatos> Well, I've got some more work to do, I'll see you later. 6He gives Athena a smile and moves for the teleporter.
<Jennifer> "Have a good day, Mr. Durran."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena waves
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos nods and even messes with Megumi's hair when he passes.
* Jennifer looks back at Athena. "So your folks are gonna manage you still?"
<Kit> <Megumi> H-Hey!!
<Xanatos> 6* Xanatos gives her a lopsided smile and hits security.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nod, sitting by Megumi, pressing her cheek against Meg's. They look like twins
<DeathStar> <Athena> Momma manage Athena in all things.
* Jennifer looks between them, doing a doubletake.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena does a peace sign
* Jennifer smiles a bit. "You two look so alike..."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Maybe Athena really Momma Megumi
<DeathStar> 6* She says this all mysteriously, then closes her eyes like Megumi does
<Kit> 6Megumi slowly lifts her hand, then shakes it-- ringing a bell.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena jerks, merowling
<Kit> <Megumi> A decade too early.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena's ears droop.
<Kit> 6Megumi kisses her cheek, then rises to go.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena reaches over and pinches Megumi's rear.
<Kit> <Elwyn> Heheh." 6She hops up, moving back to sit on the barstools.
<Kit> 6Megumi jerks, squeaking, then slowly peers over her shoulder. 1"..."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena decade quicker.
* Jennifer blushes a bit.
<Kit> 6Megumi mumbles about youth and heads home.
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena love Momma! Will make nice meal tonight!
* Jennifer rubs the back of her head.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena sighs at being left alone, then moves over to sit by Elwyn. "Can see tails?"
<Kit> 6Elwyn blinks at Athena, then closes her eyes a moment, bringing out her ears and tail consciously rathering than reactively for a change.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena takes one, cuddling it adn petting it happily
* Jennifer walks over with Athena. Not having gone anywhere.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena snuggles the tail, waiting on customers to order food
* Jennifer blinks a bit and looks at the ears and tail for a moment. "Got any dessert left Athena?"
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods.
<Jennifer> "Can I get some of that pie and the pink juice?"
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods, rising up to get it, despite it being a waitress' job
<DeathStar> 6* Athena returns, setting pie down and a glass of pink juice
<Jennifer> "Thanks..." *she smiles a bit and sits at the bar*
<DeathStar> 6* Athena pets the tail again as Jennifer sits there, not eating or drinking
* Jennifer blinks a bit and starts to eat the pie.
* Jennifer takes a sip and looks between the two.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena hums softly
* Jennifer hums a little with her after a moment.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena snuggles the tail, humming as her eyes droop; she looks as if she might go to sleep, already infamous for her catnaps
* Jennifer takes another bite. "That's a nice tune..."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena merowls softly, opening her eyes. "Athena like. Hummed to when little."
<Jennifer> "Is it a song you know?"
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena's lullaby. 6* She nods.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena hums the lullaby.
* Jennifer sways a bit, mumbling some words in tune, making some up on the spot.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers at her. "Wrong words."
* Jennifer blinks a bit. "Sorry... habit of mine to make some up... sing the real ones for me?"
<DeathStar> 6* Athena peers back and forth. "But family lullaby."
* Jennifer looks down. "Oh... well... if it's private. I'd love to hear it if I could though."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena sulks now, her ears drooping, probably picking up on Jen's emotions, but not wanting to give out a family lullaby.
* Jennifer looks up at her and blinks, then smiles. "It's alright, maybe someday in the future... maybe another song? Or I could sing something for you."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena pauses, then begins to sing the Meow meow meow song, posing with her hands like paws as she bops
* Jennifer watches and giggles, enjoying it.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena finishes
* Jennifer smiles. "You've got talent alright."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Thank you!
* Jennifer sips down more drink. "You've given me an idea."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena tilts her head
* Jennifer grins a bit. "It's a surprise, I'll show you soon."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena merowls. "But Athena want to know." 6* She grabs onto Jennifer, trying her cute eyes
* Jennifer giggles and blushes, "So... cute... but it'll spoil the surprise..."
<DeathStar> 6* AThena lifts her hands up like paws, letting her lip tremble
<Jennifer> "Are you sure you wanna know?"
<DeathStar> 6* Athena nods
<Jennifer> "I wanna write a song about you." *she blushes a bit*
<DeathStar> 6* Athena tilts her head. "Fans writing song about idol?" 6* The idea seems new to her
<Jennifer> "Yeah... I guess you could call it a fan-song."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Athena look forward to it!
* Jennifer smiles. "Great, I've been wanting to play for you."
<DeathStar> <Athena> Jenny want to play with Athena? 6* She tilts her head, perhaps teasing, her perhaps mishearing her
<Jennifer> "S-Some songs."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena smiles mischieviously
* Jennifer looks away shyly.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena leans over to steal the pie, since it's still there
* Jennifer scoops up a bite and holds it out to her on her fork.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena leans over to eat it, cutely chewing, then opening her mouth again
* Jennifer giggles and feeds her another bite.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena happily eats it
* Xanatos is now known as Xan|Gone
* Jennifer keeps feeding her bites until the slice if gone, sneaking a few herself.
<DeathStar> 6* Athena looks content now, laying her head on the counter
* Jennifer finishes her drink up and smiles. "Gonna nap?"
<DeathStar> <Athena> No new customers. Athena can't make food. Don't know what else to do
* Jennifer smiles and pats her gently. "Kay, I'm going to head back to my place. It was fun."
<DeathStar> 6* Athena merowls, waving a bit, her ears drooping, but she closes her eyes to nap

<Xanatos> 6* Kane sits in the same room the interview process occured, it's been 2 days since the incident at X's apartments. Chad has been asked back.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve sits beside Kane, dressed in a lady suit of business, papers in front of her
* Chad`Winters steps inside the room, wearing his casual clothes. 1"Please tell me this is about me going grey or fat.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane peers towards Chad and holds his hands out towards the seat across from them.
* Chad`Winters makes a face, already getting a bad feeling behind this and he sits down.
<DeathStar> <Eve> There's nothing wrong, Chad. 6* She assures him
<Xanatos> <Kane> Let me be frank. We've had to interview a large number of candidates, and with the recent events it has made it quite the difficult process.
* Chad`Winters relaxes slightly, most likely because it's from Eve
<Chad`Winters> Understandable.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Basically we have an offer for you. You see, there were very few candidates that was worthwile, and even fewer that had experience with the PAX and the people on it. We realize you didn't apply for the job yourself, but that doesn't negate the fact that you are a good candidate.
<DeathStar> <Eve> You have intregrity, intelligence, and everything we need in an ambassador
* Chad`Winters clicks his tongue at what they're leading to. 1"I don't think I'm qualified to be an ambassador for EarthGov.
<Xanatos> <Kane> We both disagree, actually.
<DeathStar> <Eve> I think you're exactly what we need.
<Chad`Winters> I just now learned to grasp basic engineering skills and some of the computer skills I used to know. Dealing with what's best for the galaxy seems out of my reach right now
<DeathStar> <Eve> I understand your reluctance. And I know it would mean you'd be on PAX more, but I think with your talents, you could do a lot for us. And Alexander trusts you
* Chad`Winters looks at Eve now, his head resting in his hand. 1"It'd also mean a lot of change would accompany it."
<DeathStar> <Eve> Yes. It would.
<Chad`Winters> And you both honestly believe that's there's nobody more qualified then me?
<DeathStar> <Eve> You're at the top of the list.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Obviously if you decline we have others we would turn too. 6He adds for Chad's sake.
<Chad`Winters> I'd hope so. 6He replies to Kane. 1"I'll be honest. This is something I'll need to think on.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Of course. You have a few days, but we can't afford more than that
<Chad`Winters> I figured as much.
<Chad`Winters> And if I accepted this, what of my living arrangements?
<DeathStar> <Eve> From what I understand, Erevis has a diplomat zone with high security. You can have whoever you want there, since body guards are allowed, but you have to be there. I think the zone is set up like personal ones, you can shape it as you like; you have no shipping charges and we'll provide you with your own ship
<DeathStar> <Eve> And of course, you get a home paid for here on Earth, since you'd be coming here with reports.
<Xanatos> <Kane> If I'm not mistaken, the pay is not as high as your current position. But we do our best to make up for it with other added bonuses such as what Eve has went over.
* Chad`Winters rubs his temple with the hand he's leaning his head on. 1"I see that."
<Xanatos> <Kane> But as you said, you'll need time. We can give you two days. Until then. 6He gives a nod.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Do what is best for you, Chad. 6* She smiles softly.
<Chad`Winters> I'm not very good at that. 6He says simply. 1"Was there anything else you wanted to discuss?
<Xanatos> 6* Kane pauses and then glances to Eve slightly. 1Simply know that if you choose to accept, you're a representative of Earth, and should act accordingly. That is all. 6He looks backt o Chad.
* Chad`Winters glances to Eve to see if she has anything to add.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve is just studying Chad.
* Chad`Winters looks over at Kane. 1"If that's all, then I guess I'll take off to think on this."
<Xanatos> <Kane> Yes. Just let me. 6He pauses and gestures to Eve. 1Or Eve know when you make your decision.
<DeathStar> <Eve> I'll escort you out. 6* She gets to her feet.
<Chad`Winters> Of course.
* Chad`Winters nots to Kane as he stands up then looks at Eve and nods, waiting for her
<Xanatos> 6* Kane gives a nod, peering to his datapad now.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve moves to open the door for Chad.
* Chad`Winters moves to the door and holds it for her.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve pauses as they open the door at the same time
<Chad`Winters> Ladies first.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve smiles, stepping out
* Chad`Winters steps out behind her, shutting the door in the process. 1"Escorting me out, huh? Should I be relieved you're not armed?"
<DeathStar> 6* Eve blinks at that.
<DeathStar> <Eve> I just thought you'd like to talk on the way out
<Xanatos> 6* Kane exits the scene to focus on Kane things.
<Chad`Winters> I was just joking. 6He rubs the back of his neck, clearly not as good at changing the subject like he used to be. 1"What did ya have planned for the night?"
<DeathStar> <Eve> I have a lot of work to do, considering the ambassador thing, and the explosion.
<DeathStar> <Eve> The timing for it seemed almost purposeful, considering we're the last race to get an ambassador to PAX
<Chad`Winters> You think the explosion was set off to affect who you picked for ambassador?
<Chad`Winters> 6He rubs the back of his neck
<DeathStar> <Eve> I doubt it, but it's added more to the work pile at the crucial time
<Chad`Winters> It's possibly it was orchestrated to force Alex to make a mistake in the eyes of the public.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Anything is possible.
<Chad`Winters> I suppose it is. 6He shifts an arm around her waist and leans against her as they walk. 1"If you spread a person too thin, they tend to miss the obvious things infront of them.
<DeathStar> <Eve> That's very true. 6* She steps into the elevator, hitting the L button
<Chad`Winters> About what time do you think you'll goto bed? 6He looks at her as he leans against her in the elevator, probably trying to plan his time out.
<DeathStar> <Eve> I don't know.
<Chad`Winters> I think I might talk to Cheryl for a bit along with Aya since you'll be busy most of the day and night.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve nods, the elevator doors open. "I know she wants answers on what we find on the body. I understand why she's pressing so hard for answers."
<Chad`Winters> She might never openly admit it, but Dias means alot to her as friend. And she can relate to what it's like to losing someone close to her.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Hopefully we'll get her some answers soon. 6* She moves across the lobby, stopping at the doors that lead outside
* Chad`Winters nods as he stops beside her. 1"You're place be unlocked if I get there before you?
<DeathStar> <Eve> You should have a key.
* Chad`Winters pats himself then sighs, forgetting it was on him. 1"I'll let myself in if I get there before you do.
<DeathStar> <Eve> Make yourself comfortable. 6* She gives him a kiss on the lips, then steps back. "Hopefully after a few days, I'll have more time once everything settles down."
* Chad`Winters relaxes somewhat and nods. He kisses her back tho, then breaks it off. 1"I'll have food there if I get to your place before you get home.
<DeathStar> 6* Eve gives him a warm smile; a car pulls up to take Chad where he needs to go, and she gives a wave, moving back for the elevators to do work for God Cran
* Chad`Winters moves off to the car and get's inside
Session Close: Tue Nov 17 00:00:00 2009
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl sits in her mansion of awesomeness - somewhere
<Chad`Winters> 6The front doorbell chimes off in an epic Cheryl designed chime
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon opens the door, dressed in a french maid outfit.
<Chad`Winters> Still cleaning, Lemon?
<DeathStar> <Lemon> I'm Cheryl.
* Chad`Winters raise a brow at that. 1"I have problems believeing that.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> It helps me get away from doing work. 6* She says, straight faced.
<Xanatos> 6* Someone approaches the house from behind Chad.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon jerks, then runs past Chad to give the person a hug, a happy noise coming from her.
* Chad`Winters slowly looks behind him.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane smiles, returning the hug.
<Chad`Winters> Stalking me? 6He looks at Kane now
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon pauses, her trick ruined. She sighs.
<Xanatos> <Kane> I live here. 6He notes to Chad.
<Chad`Winters> Nice to hear. 6He looks at Lemon. 1"Cheryl free?"
<DeathStar> <Lemon> She's in one of the studies, doing work
<Chad`Winters> You know which one?
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon begins to give complicated directions to an area on the top floor, secluded from the rest of the rooms
<Xanatos> 6Kane tilts his head slightly, peering to Lemon.
<Chad`Winters> Cran's private study then. 6He nods, remembering the mansion well. He moves inside, heading that way
<Xanatos> <Kane> Hello. 6He offers her a smile, putting his arm around her lower back as he moves for the door.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks at Kane. "Hello!" 6* She cheers up again, following him in. "Would you like some food?"
<Xanatos> <Kane> If it wouldn't be too much trouble. It's hard to find time to eat during work.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon nods, leading him to the grand dining hall/kitchen area. She moves into the kitchen, then brings out a pot of soup, bread, and a salad, balancing them all to set on the table
* Chad`Winters moves upto Cheryl's hiding room and knocks on the doorway
<Xanatos> <Kane> Your balance is quite impressive. I've been so clumbsy lately that I slipped and fell earlier.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl pretends to ignore it
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Were you hurt?!
* Chad`Winters just moves inside and takes a seat beside her.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane pauses and shakes his head. 1No, no. It was just embarassing.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers up from five datapads to eye him. "Make yourself at home." 6* She notes wryly.
<Chad`Winters> I'd prefer not to. 6He notes, having problems hiding his uncomfort being in this mansion with the memories he had with his Eve.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And here I thought picking this out of the way study would keep me hidden from people. 6* Indeed, it seems to be one rarely used, judging by the lack of stuff in it besides what Cheryl's added.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks relieved, then begins to dip his food for him
<Chad`Winters> I remember hiding in here when Serena was alive.
<Xanatos> 6* Kane smirks. 1You spoil me.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Interesting
<DeathStar> <Lemon> I like doing this. 6* She smiles happily, then sits down beside him. "How was work?" 6* She sobers up some, thinking of X.
<Chad`Winters> Any word on the remains?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> No. Eve still hasn't given me an answer.
<Xanatos> <Kane> It was...well it was work. I believe I'm slowly getting the hang of things. Though recent events have put a strain on that. 6He remains vague, not wanting to competely kill the mood.
* Chad`Winters massages the back of his neck now as he shifts his legs onto a desk, pushing one of her datapads out of the way. 1"Apparently Kane and Eve want me to become the ambassador for EarthGov.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon nods, shifting over to give his shoulder a massage
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes the datapad move, and as if she has OCD, shifts it back into alignment after shifting all the others
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> And you said no?
<Xanatos> 6* Kane's tense shoulders quickly relax and he lets out a breath. 1The food smells delicious.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Thank you. ... you're always so tense after work. 6* She mumbles with disapproval. "I should ask Mr. Cran to let you have more time off."
* Chad`Winters glances at the datapads. 1"I said I'd think about it." 6He frowns slightly
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I only set it up so you could have some time with Eve as an execuse. We both know you don't like that sort of thing
<Xanatos> <Kane> Ah, well I'm sure he would love to give me time off, but this upcoming election is very serious and if we lose, there could be...dire consequences.
<Chad`Winters> Which I appreciate. 6He looks at her, a serious look on his face. He looks back at the datapads, studying them. 1"I just didn't expect either to seriously consider me.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> A few hours less work wouldn't change the outcome, would it?
<Xanatos> <Kane> Perhaps not. I would say it's more that I want to prove I was not a wrong choice as his Vice President.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Well, outside your grumpy behavior and manners. 6* She gestures at the feet. "You're actually qualified. But if they have a #1, you know they have a #2 on the list."
<Chad`Winters> Yeah, but I find it hard to believe they hold me above anybody else considering who I am and what's all happened to me. Looking from Alexanders view, the things that have happeneded to me could easily be used against me. My addiction to pain killers, Vile. 6He rubs his temple. 1"But then I think, and it pains me to admit this, but Alexander could benefit from this."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Having a sibling of sorts on PAX? Yes. Just like it benefits him to have me running his top unit. 6* Her tone drips with acid at top unit
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon considers. "But don't all great leaders know to take it easy, too, or they'll burn out!"
<Xanatos> <Kane> Yes that is right. I will definitely insist on taking weekends off from now on and I will try to leave the office before 5 every day.
<Chad`Winters> Rationally, I'd be foolish not to take it. The benefits would allow me to come to Earth more frequently to see you and Eve. It'd benefit Alexander who is the better choice right now. And I think Eve would be happy if I was in politics too.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Eve would be happy if you did what makes you happy.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks happy
<Chad`Winters> You think so? 6He thinks back to her hinting at how he'd be good at politics back on Chip
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I know I'm happy when Chii does what she wants to do. Like deciding not to be in the military anymore. If it makes her happy, I'm happy.
<Chad`Winters> You're also not cut from the same cloth as other women.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Uh huh. Or maybe I know women better than you
<Chad`Winters> Most lesbians do.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon massages Kane's lower shoulders. "I'll make sure to have food ready by 5."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gives him a look, then shifts to go back to her work.
<Xanatos> <Kane> I would like that. 6He glances up to give her a smile and the pats his lap.
<Chad`Winters> I don't think I'd be happy being an Ambassador honestly. It'd bring to light things I'd prefer to keep buried, and it'd also put Aya back in the spotlight, something I'd prefer to keep her out of. Enough has happened to her because of me the way it is.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Then turn them down. 6* She says without looking up
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon shifts to sit on Kane's lap like he were Santa Claus, leaning against him with a content sigh
<Xanatos> 6* Kane kisses her forhead, then shifts slightly so he can eat without making a mess and still love on Lemon.
* Chad`Winters shifts his feet off the table now and he leans forward. 1"I haven't actually sat in this mansion in years."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It works. 6* She notes with a shrug, not looking impressed by it.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Will you become President one day after Mr. Cran's terms are up?
<Chad`Winters> Just be glad you can create good memories in it.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I was here when Cran lived in it, still. 6* She notes offhandedly. "He taught me a lot here about being a proper heir. Until I fucked it up."
<Chad`Winters> Did he? 6He looks over at her. 1"I guess we both have tarnished memories of being here.
<Xanatos> <Kane> It's possible I could run. But I'm not sure I would ever do that.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> Why not?
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It's just a place. Chii wanted a home, and I wanted to keep working and be close to her, it usited me once I remembered a bit about the secrets in it, and discovered the base
<Xanatos> <Kane> I'm not so sure it is...me. What do you think? 6He glances to her slightly.
<Chad`Winters> And it forces me to remember the time I spent here with Eve. 6He leans back now, looking distant.
<DeathStar> <Lemon> I think you would be great. You're very kind and thoughtful. That's important in a leader.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers up at him. "I guess that's why you asked to sleep on Eve's couch over having a room here."
<Chad`Winters> Yeah it was. Some memories are just too hard to retrace.
<Xanatos> <Kane> Yes, but it's a very important position. And I have been going nonstop for so long, that perhaps at that point I may want to take a bit of a break.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I can imagine.
<DeathStar> 6* Lemon considers, nodding. "You can always take a break anytime you want." 6* She leans in to kiss him, shifting to straddle his lap
* Xanatos is now known as Xan|Gone
<Xan|Gone> 6* Kane smiles and returns the kiss, wrapping his arms around her.
* Chad`Winters rubs this temple again. 1"I'm really not sure what to do at this point, Cheryl."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> About what?
<Chad`Winters> Sorry, I forget that most people can't keep up with the way I jump around on thoughts. 6He shifts to lean back again. 1"This Ambassador position."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Again, 'about what'. You already plainly answered your own question, Chad. You don't want to do it, you don't want Aya in the limelight. There's your answer, right there, and Alexander would understand completely.
<Chad`Winters> It's also a selfish one. 6He leans forward again, his hands running through his short hair. 1"Atleast I have two days to think on it."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes him, then takes a datapad, typing Kane a message. It seems to be saying "Dear Kane, Chad doesn't wantto be an ambassador."
* Chad`Winters eyes Cheryl at that and grabs her hand to stop her. 1"I'll be the one that let's them know, I appreciate the gusto tho.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Then be a man and tell them flat out your concerns. Trust me, they'll need someone who wants to be there and not someone who doesn't.
* Chad`Winters nods. 1"I'll talk to Eve when she gets home tonight after I talk to Aya and visit someone.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl nods back, probably not needing to ask the 'someone'. "Good to know you have balls after all." 6* She notes dryly.
<Chad`Winters> I can have them cut into your lawn if you need to be reminded.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You know you owe Dias some money.
* Xan|Gone has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
<Chad`Winters> I'll buy him some of Marcus soup to make up the difference.
* Xanatos has joined #TAW-MansionBase
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snorts, tapping a few buttons on her datapad to run math calculations for her
* Xanatos is now known as Xan|SLEEPZ
<Chad`Winters> I let Marcus know what happened. 6He glances at the calclations. 1"I figured Dias could use Marcus right now.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> He could. If Marcus can afford to leave his business.
<Chad`Winters> A true test of friendship I suppose.
<Chad`Winters> Have you checked on him since you've all gotten back here?
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rubs the side of her face, frowning in thought. "Of course. But there's little I can do to help him other than tell him to lose hope until we've examined the body thoroughly. And be there if he needs to talk."
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It's why I'm doing my own work and trying to get these datapads to help me. See if I can pick anything up since it's taking them so long to get back to me
<Chad`Winters> Take it from personal experience, he needs to talk. Even if he's doesn't appear receptive, just talking to him about anything will help.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You should talk to him, too, you know. 6* She notes.
* Chad`Winters nods. 1"I will."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rubs her face, eyeing one datapad when it beeps. She reaches for a mug of something, drinking it
<Chad`Winters> I'll stop back tomorrow to visit and talk to Dias, see if I can help at all. 6He stands up now, resting a hand on her shoulder. 1"Just be there for him Cheryl. The boys gone through hell and back for you.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She eyes Chad, a look of anger in her eyes. "Does it look like I'm not here for him? I'm trying to figure this out for him to have peace of mind, despite the fact I can't even anaylze damn bones anymore. I keep pushing everyone to finish examining the remains, even the President. I'm sitting here trying to relearn everything I can, WHY they would target X.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I've gone through every inch of the debris, looking for clues. Ran through video feeds.
* Chad`Winters rubs his face. 1"Sorry. I didn't mean to insinuate anything."
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rubs her face as well. "I shouldn't have snapped. I haven't slept much in the last two days."
* Chad`Winters pauses as he eyes her doing the same thing he is. 1"Creepy." 6He shakes his head. 1"Their's very few benefits for attacking X specifically. The biggest is as a distraction for Dias which ultimately is a distraction for the rest of the team. But that brings the question of what's the team being distracted from? Another is, it could be somethign to do with the Weapons project.
<Chad`Winters> X was originally designed to kill Dias. Which she's obviously failed at, maybe somebody wanted to reclaim her for that reason alone.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> It's possible. Anything is possible. I've run through endless scenarios.
<Chad`Winters> I've been in the same position you are right now Cheryl, take a short break from it. Let your mind rest and your subconcious do the thinking.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'll keep it in mind.
<Chad`Winters> I'll give you a hand tomorrow, a fresh set of eyes to look at everything. Eve'll be busy all day with Alex and Kane so it'll give me something to do.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl nods a few times. "I could use the help."
<Chad`Winters> I'm starting to remember some of my basic stuff so I'll help with whatever I can.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You remember how to open doors, then? 6* She notes dryly.
<Chad`Winters> But apparently forgot how to have sex. 6He responds dryly himself
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> You're practically a virgin. Don't fret, though, Chii's not so great at it anymore, either.
<DeathStar> 6* Cheryl rubs the back of her head
<Chad`Winters> Unlike you two, I haven't really had the chance to give myself a refresher course in sex.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Well, gee, here, let me show you. 6* She reaches for her buttons
<Chad`Winters> And Eve will be happy to know, I have absolutely no sex drive now.
<DeathStar> <Cheryl> Ouch. I'm hurt. Seriously. And here I thought I was pretty.
