And Quinn follows!
[Dock on the Lake]
"She is. They are both quite nice people."
[Dock on the Lake]
Annabelle perks up.
"I LIKE NICE PEOPLE! MAYBE IF I LOOK I MIGHT FIND SOME MORE PEOPLE WHO ARE NICE LIKE YOU AND AREN'T AFRAID OF ME!" she smiles at Taurus, and then looks over at Myrim, keeping up the smile. Another person who isn't afraid of her or trying to smite her because she is undead! The people here are much nicer than the random civilians in the city.

Actually, Myrim doesn't know that Annabelle is undead. Myrim's homeworld has undead that look undead- skeletons, zombies, liches, revenants, and so on; vampires too, but they're good enough that most of the time they're indistinguishable from normal humans. Annabelle, as far as I'm aware, looks like a green-tinged human, and Myrim's homeworld has many different types of people.
"Why would people be scared of you? You don't seem very scary to me." The ghouls of Myrim's homeworld aren't even undead, they're just semi-sentient humanoid scavengers.
Rowan Cabin
Julie tries to reach out for Eric's arm as he paces, trying to stop him from moving around quite so much.
"Stop, please. It'll all be over soon. Besides, you're not even the one in pain here." Julie keeps from wincing long enough to give Eric a cheeky smile, trying to assuage his nervousness somewhat.
Unfortunately, the contractions are coming even faster, and she's worried Keo won't be able to find Quinn in time. They'll just have to hope.
"Can you help me towel off?" It'll give him something to do, at least.
[Main Cabin]
((Nope, I think you got it basically right. :smallsmile:))
Caroline opens her mouth to speak.....
When Vincent starts to pull her away. Wait Vincent! Let's here him out. Caroline takes her arm back from Vincent. Where'd you like to talk?
Main Cabin- Kitchen
bzzzt! The Old GLoG Drone opens its front panel to accept the cake.
bzzt! Would you like some cake? It asks the oddish.
[Rowan Cabin]
Eric doesn't know how to relax himself, almost never having had panic like this before. So, he does as he's bid, Drying off Julie before going to grab a blanket. Women get cold chills in labor, right? plus, she's naked. He's helping! Trying to at least!
Rowan Cabin
Keo will lead Quinn to Julie's bedside. "I got her,m! Here she is,m!" Keo will hop up and down a bit next to the bed.
[Main Cabin]
"The doom council?"
Andy is rather suprised and confused. For Vincent I assume this is a bad disguss as in all good games. He doesn't know what that means. Maybe some kind of Party with a Doom theme? But then he remembers something. Vincent had some problems as well. Something about not seeing the world right or so. Sadly Andy was Deadtimed when they declared it. He shakes of the suprise and draws his attention back to Caroline.
"We could go to my Room or if that is to risky for you we could go to one of the free cabins."
He doesn't say that in a bad sound he tries to give opions since they don't trust him. And his Room really would scare them even more.
I'm glad to hear it. Bye for now and good luck with that cake. Reelshka turns to leave.
Brinika shakes her head.
They haven't yet, but me and Aunt Reelshka are trying to convince them to. Wouldn't that be cool? She asks, bouncing up and down excitedly.
[Lake Shore]
"That would be great." Renetta says with a grin. Brinika is officially absolutely adorable.
[Dock on the Lake]
Taurus remains quiet, allowing Annabelle to answer!
===
[Main Cabin]
Jamie waves to Reelshka, loads the cake in the drone, then offers some to Oddball as well!
It's entirely possible that Vincent or Caroline might notice theDoombringerMagical Girl.
[Dock on the Lake]
Annabelle is less green and more pale and corpsey. A sort of white with a tinge of blue, actually.
"WELL, I'M ALL DEAD AND THINGS. OR WELL, MOSTLY DEAD, I THINK. A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T LIKE THAT." she responds, looking off to the side with a sad pout. People being mean to her because she is undead is the worst thing!
Dock on the Lake
"You're undead? Huh, you don't look it. Well, maybe slightly, but not very undead." Myrim's rather surprised by the answer, she really wasn't expecting it.
[Dock on the Lake]
Annabelle tilts her head, brow furrowing in confusion.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN I DON'T LOOK UNDEAD?" she asks simply. She always thought she looked undead.
[Rowan Cabin]
Quinn arrives here, just a few seconds behind Keo, and makes a beeline for Julie!
[Dock on the Lake]
"Most undead appear and act less...well, for want of a better term, human," Taurus explains.
Dock on the Lake
"You mean humans don't come that colour? I thought they might. Most undead where I'm from tend to either blend in perfectly or rot." Humans are one of the newest species on Myrim's homeworld; she has no experience with them.
Main Cabin- Kitchen
Oddball looks up slightly confused. "Oddish?" There's a confused tone to its voice- he doesn't know much English. But Oddball will try some that Jamie gave to him. He trusts her, more than anybody else. He likes it; not especially much, but he usually eats insects and berries or absorbs nutrition from the soil.
[Dock on the Lake]
"I DON'T THINK HUMANS LOOK LIKE ME," the ghoul replies, "I'VE GOT LIKE, BLACK EYES AND SHARP TEETH AND WEIRD FEET AND STUFF!"
She wiggles her toe-claws.
Rowan Cabin
Julie is sitting mostly upright on the couch, covered in a light blanket and halfway dry by the time Quinn gets there.
"Hi there Quinn. Think we can get this over with before lunch? I'm famished." Julie may be cracking wise, but the wince she makes when the next contraction hits says it all.
[Dock on the Lake]
"Yes, but most undead are...even more different."
===
[Rowan Cabin]
"You still won't be allowed wine before dinner," Quinn quips back, quickly pulling out gloves and disinfectant...
And the medical curtain descends!
===
[Infirmary]
"Well, basically," the red-haired Solar drawls, "I wanted to know if you were here to join, seeking redemption."
Rowan Cabin
Medical things happen, politely being screen from the public eye. Of course, when all is said and done, it was probably the fastest, if not cleanest pregnancy Quinn has ever delivered due to Julie's accelerated gestation, and once the babes are cleaned up they'll prove to be some of the oddest looking children Julie has ever seen.
The eldest, by a scant few minutes, has pure white scaly skin that catches the light and reflects it as a shimmering, coruscating aura of prismatic light. each scale reflects the light as a different color based on the direction it's being struck from. Once you look past the dazzling effect, she seems like a rather healthy young baby girl, if a bit large for just out of the womb, most likely because of Julie being overdue for so long. She's inherited her father's silver eyes, and some of her mother's more obvious demonic traits, such as a slightly modified spade tail, segmented into three small prehensile tails that are currently entwined around each other as she sleeps.
Less obvious, although found through a cursory inspection, are her two parallel tongues.
Her younger sister is affected by her starspawn heritage in more obvious ways. Although her skin is smooth, its midnight black color gives her a sleek, eel-like complexion, which matches her most obvious feature. In place of her legs, from the waist down she has a nest of tentacles, each a three-jawed gaping mouth at the base, before flattening out into a more normal look near the tips. Three dazzlingly blue eyes peer curiously at everyone, taking them in. The one centered on her forehead blinks as she yawns, fisting and unfisting her hands tentatively. Atop her head, nearly invisible against her skin, a wisp of black hair sits.
Julie holds the pale twin, wrapped in a haze of... something she'd call contentment, were she more familiar with the emotion. Her fingers play over the exposed pale skin of her child's face, running over the tiny, almost unnoticeable ridges of her scales. The baby stirs, but doesn't wake.
"Eric? I... I think I have a name." Julie is lost in her own world now, not acknowledging Keo or Quinn's presence. It's simply her, her love, and now... something amazing in her arms.
[Rowan Cabin]
Eric sits holding the baby girl with the nest of tentacles in place of legs, feeling much the same way as Julie. His panic subsided once Julie's pain did, and now he's just smiling, very very happily.
"What name did you have in mind, Julie? I think I can guess..." he grins, and if Julie says what he thinks she's going to say, considering the skin of the little one in her arms, they'll end up saying it at the exact same time.
[Rowan Cabin]
Quinn, meanwhile, just shakes her head as she washes her hands, thinking something along the lines of 'crazy succubi, they'll sleep with anything', perhaps. :smalltongue:
"Despite their...unusual traits, they are two very healthy baby girls. Congratulations, mom." And she smiles.
Rowan Cabin
"Eric, I'd like you to meet our darling baby Prism." Poor Quinn being ignored for the sake of the adorable little bundle of bliss in her arms. Such is the fate of doctors, I know.
Whether or not Eric was thinking the same thing, or timed it right, Julie has a soft smile on her face that seems to grow with every passing moment.
[Main Cabin]
Let's give Andy a chance, okay? Caroline says to Vincent. It'd be best to get more than one opinion anyway.
[Main Cabin]
As soon as the cake is loaded, the Old GLoG drone tries to follow Reelshka out.
Not sure about Vincent, but Caroline notices Jamie and waves. Hi.
[Main Cabin]
Vincent was more waiting to see if Caroline wanted to follow Andy to an empty place to talk. He waves a little at Jamie, but doesn't see the need to bog down the conversation too much.

"Where I'm from, vampires are the only known type of physical undead that doesn't slowly fall apart. Even necromancers powerful enough to live past the day they were supposed to die have to repair their bodies with magic and other people's skeletons." Although it's a little-known fact that vampires will fall apart if they don't feed regularly enough. If one spends too long without blood it will disintegrate as though it went sunbathing.
[outside]
Holly is lying down on a hill near the lake shore, enjoying the warm, clear whether that the Nexus appears to have at all times. times like this are almost enough to make someone forget the occasional apocalypse or even their own "missing sibling" plot which their player can't seem to think of a good next step to and hasn't been able to advance whatsoever.
...
And now she's starting to get bored, and will get up to search for her friend Jamie in hopes that she has an idea for something the two of them can do.
[Dock by the Lake]
"OH" Annabelle responds, "WELL, I'M PRETTY SURE MAGIC IS KEEPING ME ALL NOT-ROTTING AND THINGS. THE GHOULS I KNOW CAME BACK BECAUSE OF MAGIC, SO I THOUGHT THAT MADE SENSE."
She seems to think about this for a while. It is a very strange thing, to know that other ghouls may be completely different from you.
