[ACRO] GLoG 49: Who Ya Gonna Call?

[The Bushranger]

[Cabin 10]

Whoops. She really needs to mention that to Brendan, doesn't she?


A junco flutters into the cabin through the door, which just so happened to settle ajar when Brendan left just enough for a small bird to flit through.

Hearing the shower running, he flies torwards it.

[Lex-Kat]

{Someplace Else}

Dani shrieks. "She was mean to me once! But I still loved her! And she got better, right?!" Awww....!

Wait, you mean you and my mother were..... lovers? Krysta asks, the second pixie dust ball still waiting to be thrown.

[happyturtle]

[Cabin 10]

There is no shower in cabin 10. Tom would need to be flying to the bathhouse.

[Recaiden]

[Sorry for not being clear enough that the shower involved leaving Cabin 10 - Bathhouse]

In which Ashna is for now.

And what's with the juncos?

[The Bushranger]

[Bathhouse, then, presumably there's a place he can sneak in? ]

It's one junco. THAT Junco. Bird-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, Tom the Junco, Erin's familiar.

And peeping Tom, it seems.

[Recaiden]

[Bathhouse - Being snuck into by creepy bird and GLoG member.]


There is. And there's one shower audibly running, and either of their being here is kind of odd.

[horngeek]

{{And BR has missed Lex again }}

[The Bushranger]

[Someplace Else]

Dani double-takes at that.
Then actually giggles.

"What? No! Although she is really cute and if I wasn't married and was shrunk down to her size I'd love to maybe sometime!" Aww, isn't the babble cute?

---

[Bathhouse]

Thankfully, there's just Tom the Junco here, exploring while he can't tell where his mistress is (it's Town-Erin, who was kidnapped!)

Tom will try and flutter onto the divider of the shower door, or the top of the wall, or something like that.

[Piggyebil]

Koyuki wakes up in Cabin 8. Maybe...it was all a dream.

[Lex-Kat]

[Someplace Else]

Krysta just looks at Dani, lifting one eyebrow. I think I can understand why my mother was mean to you. Krysta turns and flutters away.

((Nope. Krysta doesn't like Dani. Dani's too, bouncy and energetic.

NOTE: This is not the opinion of the player, just the character.))

[Je dit Viola]

[Falling...falling]

Someone's falling, tearing a hole in the overcast sky. Falling...falling...falling.

Oh, wait. It's Helen, she shapeshifted her wings away.

No, she's not trying to kill herself.

[Piggyebil]

[Cabin 8]

Koyuki looked out the window and saw Helen falling. What in in the world is she doing...

[The Bushranger]

[Someplace Else]

Dani's eyes go wide. "Hey! No, she was influnced by this Asterisk guy who made her marry him!" She looks like she's about to cry.

[Je dit Viola]

[Fallen Angel]

Helen, before it's too late, opens her eyes (yes, they were closed) and shapeshifts back into her demon form, opening her wings.

She continues down, quickdraws her longsword from its scabbard on her back. The demon cleaves a poor, defenceless snowman in twain (cuts it in half) at the last second, curving so she skims along the snow, gliding at breakneck speed before she pulls up back to the sky.

Then...she snags her wing on a treebranch, and falls to the ground. Ouch. It even punctured a hole.

[Recaiden]

[Bathhouse]

Thankfully, there's just Tom the Junco here, exploring while he can't tell where his mistress is (it's Town-Erin, who was kidnapped!)

Tom will try and flutter onto the divider of the shower door, or the top of the wall, or something like that.

Bird, I'm supposed to be angry at you, yes? Get out. With a bright flash of light to frighten it off.

[The Bushranger]

[Bathhouse]

"SEEP!" Tom flutters away and perches on the back of a chair, fussing, almost sounding like he's muttering under his breath.

[horngeek]

A fox walks near Dani.

It happens to have silver tattoos all over it.

[Lord Magtok]

"No, because if you were asleep, again. The Magchair would've logged a change in status, or Nurse Piper would have noticed you leaving the Magchair. Magtok. Would you care to further elaborate on what the Mag chair does, so we may better understand how it may be fooled?"

Fan says inquisitively.

It's a chair that hovers around, can send out an emergency signal with a button push if something goes wrong, and it's exact location is always under surveillance by Magbots at the Cave. And before anyone even thinks of saying that's creepy or stalker-ish or something, it's already prevented an emergency back during the Catpeople War thing, so shush.

Shaking his head, Magtok tries to dial Happy's number, just to see whether it'll work. He doubts it, but given his iron fisted monopoly over any and all sorts of technologies K-Corp isn't interested in selling, there's nobody to pay long distance charges to.

[Je dit Viola]

[Outside, in the snow]

Helen is crumpled on the ground, under a tree, bleeding out of her wing. There's a succubus lying in the snow! Oh, no! (Why does this always happen to her?)

Also, a bit away, there's a snowman that's cut in half.

[The Bushranger]

[Random location]

Dani, turning away from where Krysta went and near tears, nearly trips over the fox!

[horngeek]

The fox stops, and gives her a mildly disapproving look.

But seeing her tears, transforms into a girl who looks about 16 in human terms, with dark skin, red hair which is white at the ends, fox ears and a tail. She has the tattoos as well, in the same patterning. What's wrong?

[Lord Iames Osari]

At long last, Nimai arrives. Determined.

[Lex-Kat]

[Outside, in the snow]

Helen is crumpled on the ground, under a tree, bleeding out of her wing. There's a succubus lying in the snow! Oh, no! (Why does this always happen to her?)

Also, a bit away, there's a snowman that's cut in half.

Krysta, upon seeing the Demon fall into the tree, rushes over to her. Are you all right??

[The Bushranger]

((...I presume she's dressed? ))

Dani double-takes a little. "Um...somebody was mean to me and hurt me," she says, simply. "And misunderstood me, too."

[horngeek]

{{Yes, she is. }}

Zamira looks at her. Sometimes, that happens.

My name's Zamira.

[Recaiden]

[Bathhouse]

"SEEP!" Tom flutters away and perches on the back of a chair, fussing, almost sounding like he's muttering under his breath.

It's not you in particular, bird. Shortly the water goes off, and a dressed Ashna comes out.
But you know how many normal animals I've seen here? If you're one, then you're the only one.

[Rebonack]

[Over the Lake a Few Minutes Ago...]

A white streak hit the water at a blistering speed, causing the surface explode into a shower of droplets that froze mid-air. For a time the only evidence of the impact is the ripple that slowly spread across the surface.

Shortly there after the streak once more burst from below the lake, taking to the air with a particularly unhappy trout in his talons.

Yes, Avatar is well aware that eagle's don't dive. But given that it makes catching fish a bit easier and he doesn't have to worry so much about water mucking up his feathers it isn't that much of an issue.

The oddly colored bird of prey landed atop a branch and began picking at his recently aquired, still flopping meal.

[Now, Above Hellen]

As soon as the demon hits Avatar responds with a "Bwah!" dropping his fish in the process.

The half alive salmonid is now flopping about atop the injured succubus.

"Eerr... Hey Hellen? Are you alright?"

[Je dit Viola]

[In the snow]

Unnnnn... she groans, trying to focus on Krysta. She lifts her head up to see better.

Yeah...I'm alright. She tries to sit up, and notices the red blood. Why...why do I have four wings? 'cause of double vision.

(Ha! Ninja'd you!)

And now Helykaan has a fish flopping on her. Gross.

And is a bird talking to her? She must have hit the snow harder than she thought.

[Lex-Kat]

{In the Snow}

Krysta frowns at Avatar. Get that fish off of her! Then looks to Helen.

They've been torn in half, Miss. We should get you to the infirmary. Krysta moves to touch Helen, and maybe teleport her to the GLoG infirmary.

{Shadow Realm}

Magtok will likely not get a signal. There are no antennae to support Long Distance calls in the Shadow Realm.

[happyturtle]

[Main Lodge]

At the same time that Magtok dials Happy's phone, the main base phone starts ringing.
