[NEXUS] Nexus OoC 13: Saturday the Nexteenth

[happyturtle]

And let there be much (belated) rejoicing.

[TechnoScrabble]

I may suddenly deadtime until my usual midnight-ish time soon.

[Earl of Purple]

I'm going to bed now. Which means Deadtime. See you all this evening. Because yesterday became yesterday and no longer today for me an hour and a half ago. Good night.

[Darklord Bright]

Who's going to be the lucky person who's getting leant on by a drunken Shy'anni?

Well, lucky until she vomits, at least.

[horngeek]

...I'm tempted to have Merra encounter Iphy, then go 'nah, looking for a drow, not a nymph'.

Just for the latter's reaction.

[Reinholdt]

...I'm tempted to have Merra encounter Iphy, then go 'nah, looking for a drow, not a nymph'.

Just for the latter's reaction.

It probably involves excruciating pain and death.
Depending on her mood of course. Which is something I can almost never tell.

[horngeek]

Of course, her bearing might be so obviously drow-like that Merra might attempt to kidnap her anyway. 'Even if you're not like then genetically, you're TAINTED BY THEM!'

Actually, interesting thought: she hates Drow culture and the Drow themselves, and would identify Iphy with the drow because Iphy is so obviously self-identifying herself with them?

Hmmm...

Either way, your choice.

[VeisuItaTyhjyys]

Had it not already been established, I would've chosen Skugdim. It would be great for him to get puked on in both of his first two threads.

Ilpholin's perhaps my least easiest to kidnap. Merra's better off going to the Black Dragon Inn and picking on Nadas. Still.

Course I thought Merra operated her taking drow in the tunnels and not the city proper?

*shrugs*
I'm deadtiming for an hour or two regardless.

[KerfuffleMach2]

Not really doing anything with Alysha at the moment. Where's Shy'anni at?

Oh, Underside. Never mind. Don't plan on bringing Alysha there anytime soon.

Though, I have been thinking about having Talia going down there. Or maybe making a new character.

Still tossing around the idea of a new Keyblade wielder.

She doesn't go up to the surface.

And besides, Nadas wouldn't be a challenge for her!

...well, Iphy would probably end up seducing her. Which would have... interesting results.

[VeisuItaTyhjyys]

So, how do you wanna divvy up this hurr drow, Artemis?

[ThirdEmperor]

So, nobody has a problem with me making a Lizardfolk tribe for Underside?

[Artemis97]

So, VeisuItaTyhjyys... (Dear gods, that's one heck of a name)

I'm pretty sure you're new to FFRP. At least I haven't seen you around here much before. Anyways... jumping in on something while someone else is deadtimed and not giving them a chance to respond, well, it's downright rude. I don't know how else to put it. But, like I said, I fgured you're new, I was going to let it slide. But then to further hold my absence against me as the plot moves along and use it as an IC advantage, really isn't fair at all.

Edit: And of course you ninja me as I type up my monologue there. As for the priestess, I had made arrangements about her fate with another player before you even came into the picture.

[VeisuItaTyhjyys]

Oh, yeah, sorry, just for Veisu.

Anyway, we stopped when we figured out you weren't on, to give you a shot to respond. As I said in the thread, I figure if the characters didn't come to some sort of agreement, something would happen so you'd get the priestess, anyhow. It's just that it doesn't make sense for a guy who already gave the slave-merchant the money not to, you know, point out doing that; that's why I was saying it was being brought up as an IC advantage, but I wouldn't actually consider it an advantage, OOC.

[Artemis97]

Alright, that makes sense. I think I misunderstood you a little bit back there. No harm done. Having already paid for something is a bit important to point out, yes.

[Haruki-kun]

Psi could ask the entity of the white ring itself.

Psi's actually trying to understand how the rings work, so... talking to a ring might not be the first thing that comes to mind. But I'll consider that.

OH MY GODS YOUR AVY'S HAT IS CHIYO CHICHI.

[Haruki-kun]

OH MY GODS YOUR AVY'S HAT IS CHIYO CHICHI.

YES! THANK YOU! Someone got it!

.....so about Psi...

[lord pringle]

The entity would happily explain it to her.

[Samm]

Okay, I've got my character posted up here.

Where should I start?

[ThirdEmperor]

Try Trog's. Always a good starting location.

[UncleWolf]

Entrance/Gate

"The. . . man, is he here?" The (what is that? an undead? a golem?) asks. It stumbles closer; it is a horrifically wounded man, with the majority of skin having been relatively recently, and inexactly, reattached. "He said to come here, before he left." He's lost, a lot of blood, and he's got to be in great pain, so the lack of lucidity in his comments is no surprise. "He left him a back, but I didn't get one, I guess he didn't notice." It may be apparent he's refering to the wraith at Trogg's, whose brief manifestation he seems to have witnessed, from whatever bloody alleyway he wallowed in at the time, but who knows how much the guards at the gate know about that. From the bar, he adds frantically.

Veisu? I'm sorry, but I don't see this guy referenced at all in Trog's. And the speech and writing is so erratic, it's hard for me, as a player, to understand what he's saying.

[VeisuItaTyhjyys]

He was Skugdim's "suit," or, rather, his skin was. He was a guy lying in an alley with no skin while they beat up Kore. Now he's a mysterious, amnesiac deformed guy with one lead on whatever stole his skin, a conversation he heard between another mutilated guy pretty near him. I just wrote up a character profile for him, but he doesn't remember that he is that guy, yet, or anything else, he just heard "ISF HQ" and went there.

[UncleWolf]

Generally, when you have someone overhear a conversation, you're supposed to post that they overhear it while it's going on instead of simply charging off later saying they've heard it.

[VeisuItaTyhjyys]

Ah. Well, if you'd rather, I could edit it to have him stumble to the police station because it seems the most prudent place to go when one has just had one's skin removed.

[UncleWolf]

There isn't an official police station, but I imagine he'd get a better response if he simply wandered into Trog's instead. First, it's closer, and second, the people there are generally much friendlier than others.

So yeah, I'd suggest just striking out your post at ISF HQ and heading there instead.

[Artemis97]

And I'm out of here, folks. Have a good night/day/appropriate time for your particular geographical location.

[VeisuItaTyhjyys]

I'll remove the police station post, but I imagine the poor guy will be getting as far from Trog's as he can as fast as he can and not going back for quite some time. Anyhow, sorry about the confusion; I'm newer to the unspoken sort of rules.

[Samm]

Okay, I'll be moving my character to Trog's when I get back online. Probably tomorrow. For now, it's deadtime for Charles.
