"Just like that?" :smallannoyed:
Vincent watches Quinn suspiciously with narrow eyes. It doesn't help that in all likelihood Quinn is the final boss. Course she has to pull off something sneaky on the heroes first.

Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
Chiquita cautiously waves back!
Abigail grins. "Preparing cartridges. They basically contain magical energy under high pressure, which I can use for extra power in a spell. They need to be prepared, though, which is a bit of a pain. The Cartridge System is one of the hallmarks of the magic of Ancient Belka, although it's recently been adapted to the Mid-Style system of magic."
-
Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
"Oooh, I see."
Jamie really doesn't. :smalltongue:
"So...basically...you're preparing spells, more or less?"
-
Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
Abigail shakes her head. "No. Spells work- mostly- perfectly well without a cartridge. What the Cartridge System does is increases the amount of energy I can put into a particular spell. Or, if a spell's too energy intensive to fire off normally, they allow me to use it.
The way both the Ancient Belkan and Mid-chan systems work, spells can be fired off spontaneously."

"Certainly. You could say GLoG's my little project for the day, so..." Naitiri will hand her empty cup back to Shrike, provided she'll take it. "Can you think of anyone who might be interested in our services?" A question for both the Exalt's, really.
-
Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!

Shrike accepts the cup, and goes to refill it!
"Hmm. Well, none come immediately to mind, but you might talk to Reinholdt."
Then he really would have nine lives! :smalltongue:

Jamie listens intently!
"So...boosters, then. Like energy drinks, except, for magic instead of you, right?"

"Is he one of the members?" Naitiri is clearly more curious about why he would need a clone or two. Mostly looking to make money off the cat.
-
Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
[Cabin 8]
"Redeemee, actually. But he seems to repeatedly get into trouble. Probably because he's a cat, and therefore curious."
Shrike chuckles, handing over the coffee.
-
Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
[Cabin 8]
"A cat? You must be joking." Naitiri says, confused. They're joking. Of course. There's no such thing as a talking cat.
Perhaps Tina should have explained a little better.
-
Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
[Cabin 8]
Maaaaaaaaaaybe. :smalltongue:
"Well, sometimes he's a cat. Sometimes he's a Flaming Hawt catboy. If you're into that sort of thing." Shrike shrugs!
-
Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
[Cabin 8]
"Last time I checked, people can't turn into cats." Naitiri arches a brow, half amused and half confused.

"That's... actually a pretty good example. Of course, like energy drinks, you can hurt yourself if you overdo it.
Also, you need a Device of some sort to use it. Otherwise you don't have a way to release the energy. On the other hand, anyone in my multiverse who actually takes part in magical combat has a Device, so..."

Then she notices Misaki is gone. Where'd the little one go? she asks, worried.
For the record - there's no clear trail anywhere, although a lot of tree stumps.

Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
[Infirmary]
Alright. I should probably go get some rest. Do you know what's going on in the Main Cabin? She getsures with her head towards the window.
[Mushroom Cabin]
He is! Brinika nods. Do you want to hold him? She holds out the cat for Misaki. Oh, and he can write!

There should definitely be enough hope for that simple task, even without a Green Lantern around.

"You are brave and strong," Lily tells him, echoing what he had often whispered to her in the slave caravan. She tries to remember the rest - oh yes, he had reminded her how much her mommy and daddy loved her. "You are brave and strong and all of us love you very much."
Tito, Lily's 8 year old brother, looks at Rae. "Can you make his paw grow back?" :smallfrown:

Oddball followed Jamie, and now he's smiling at Chiquita. He cautiously attempts to approach. He doesn't want to startle her, like he did last time.
It might be noted that he's not paying much attention to his surroundings, nor looking for possible threats. Normally, he has to be asleep for that to happen.

Misaki takes the cat from Brinika, petting the cat gently. "he can? He's a smart kitty! Yes, you are!" Her voice has that saccharine sweet tone to it that people get when addressing tiny babies and animals.
-
Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
[Main Cabin]
Rae is asked a question! "I'm afraid that I probably cannot. If I had the paw and the wound was a little fresher, than maybe. I'll see if I can think of something while I work though." Rae also smiles at Lily. What she's doing is great, and is helping Waterstrider a lot more than she probably thinks, fueling Rae's ring and all that. But back to the problem at hand.
The physical problems, or most of them, resolved, Rae moves on to the mental. He begins scanning the brain, looking for something that he can try to grasp on to that is not purely animal. When and if he finds something, that's when the real work will begin.
[Mushroom Cellar]
Trilby is passed! And pet! i am a pretty smart kitty! he writes on the ground with a piece of Gray chalk from under his hat! and you have ears and a tail like me!

{Center of GLoG}
Seeing that no one volunteers to help them, Vidalia shrugs her shoulders at Butler and Reelshka. Well, we could always go to NO, see if we can hire someone from there to help us.
Unless one of you has a better suggestion?

Waterstrider burrows his head into Renetta's lap, trying to hide himself from the strange powers that are trying to wash over him. Rae won't find any part of his mind that's un-animal at the moment.

"You're in the Infirmary, dear - you fell sound asleep."

Abigail chuckles at Chiquita notices Oddball, and looks back, wide-eyed!
Then she takes a gem out. "Okay, Stulpe. Time to test these. Set up, please?"
The gem pulses. Jawohl!
Then, in a flash of light, transforms into a gauntlet and vambrace on Abigail's right hand!

Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!

"Hmmmmmmmmmmm..." Vincent watches Quinn carefully, but doesn't do anything with Caroline waking up. He's hoping they can go home soon and get a real doctor to look at her.
For a second opinion.
Just in case.

No doubt Tobias would have something to say about German-speaking bracelets. :smalltongue:
As it is, though, Jamie watches with fascination!
"Wow, that's cool!"
-
Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
All Belkan Devices speak German, for some reason.
...and Mid-Style Devices speak English. :smalltongue:
"It is, isn't it?
Stulpe, test cartridges."
Jawohl!
A port opens in the vambrace, and Abigail slips in one of the cylinders. A second passes, before the gem (which is now set into the gauntlet) pulses, as a chime sounds. Abigail grins. "Well, that's that done.
Of course, we could always try getting you a Device yourself..."
Abigail chuckles jokingly.

"Oooh, that would be cool too...I'm not sure it'd work, though. What with how my magic is," Jamie explains.

Re: {Nexus} Good League of Good LXXVII: Earth Vampires DON'T Sparkle!
"Yeah, that's a good point... on the other hand, they worked around the unholy combination of Mid-Style and Belkan Magic my Linker Core was built for, so..."

Doctor Quinn, Will I be alright to go home? I promise to come back tomorrow for training. Caroline sits up, but sways a little as she sits there. I just wanna sleep in my own bed.
