[Nexus] GLoG 75: Gazebos Gone Wild

[Murkus]

[Main Cabin - Kitchen]

"I'm not some preforming monkey doin tricks er ya. I'm an imp. Cunnin and vile. Playin fools against each other fer my own gain. Not some servant." The imp spits on the floor. That pretty much sums up his thoughts.

"So what good are you, then?" Sarah asks, not insultingly but rather questioningly. "I mean, if you just stab people in the back, what can you do for me?"

Does Orich count as a figure of authority? He's certainly da biggest and da greenest here, but unfortunately GLoG doesn't work that way.

[The Bushranger]

And da red ones do not go fasta!

Taurus reaches the main cabin, and knocks on the door.

[Gullara]

*Invades GLoG with okrz* Much better.

[Main Cabin - Kitchen]

"I wouldn expect ya to understand, kid. Yer just a lil runt dat don't know nottin." Jixnib says matter of factly.

[Murkus]

Main Cabin - Kitchen

"I am not!" Sarah says, crossing her arms huffily. Her sandwich remains half-eaten. "I know lotsa things. I summoned you, didn't I? And I don't need any school either."

Meanwhile, Orich extends one of his scythe-hands to open the door for Taurus.

Aaaand... says nothing.

[The Bushranger]

Main Cabin

The door opens!

An eyebrow is raised.

"...good day. Can I speak to the President?"

He's a bit out of touch.

[Gullara]

[Main Cabin - Kitchen]

The imp snorts loudly. "You summoned me? HA! Mister mysterious vampire did all dat. You just said da words."

[Murkus]

Main Cabin

"There is no president here." Orich intones, standing flawlessly still but for his slowly swaying arms.

A room away, Sarah looks more annoyed. "Yeah, well... I'm still a wizard. And I know plenty."

[Gullara]

[Main Cabin - Kitchen]

"Oh sure sure. 'Course I believe ya. I'm sure yer da most promising wizard around. Prolly make da lesser folks tremble just by being 'round ya, don't ya?" Jixnib says scathingly. He's so mean.

[Murkus]

Main Cabin

"No! I'm not a mean wizard." Sarah says, taking a bite of her sandwich irritably. "And I can still tell you what to do, so shuddup."

[Gullara]

[Main Cabin - Kitchen]

Jixnib makes a rather rude gesture and flaps off to the other side of the kitchen. Mumbles and grumbles can be heard. He's just bitter is all.

[The Bushranger]

Main Cabin

"There is no president here." Orich intones, standing flawlessly still but for his slowly swaying arms.

A room away, Sarah looks more annoyed. "Yeah, well... I'm still a wizard. And I know plenty."

"Oh."
The young man looks a bit surprised by this.
"Could you direct me to whoever is in charge, then?"

But deadtime.

[Murkus]

Main Cabin

Sarah is resentful, for a few minutes. Stupid ol' Jixnib. But she has a curious nature, in the end, so the little girl eventually suggests, ""Y'know, if I don't know anything, you could teach me. I need to learn anyway, and Ghar ran off."

"The Council takes charge here. Most guests want to speak with Quinn." Orich says slowly, peacably. "Dr. Rein can provide assistance to newcomers, however." Since the poor beast doesn't know a lot of other people here.

[Gullara]

[Main Cabin - Kitchen]

The imp shakes his head. "What makes ya think I know squat a bout 'ow you wizard types wiggle yer fingers around?"

[Murkus]

Main Cabin - Kitchen

"Well... if you can't do that, what can I learn from you?" Sarah asks, quite eager to learn just about anything. "You said I don't know enough."

[Gullara]

[Main Cabin - Kitchen]

The imp suddenly flits nearer to her, right in front of her in fact, and tries to grab the front of her shirt to pull her forward until she can feel his brimstone breath wash over her face.

"I can teach you to be brutal, cunning, to take what you want when you want it, to step over those that get in your way. I can teach you the only true way to get anywhere in your pitiful lifespan." Jixnib hisses. He releases her, putting a bit of distance between them again. "But you're too soft for that."

Odd how that accent disappeared. An act maybe?

[Reinholdt]

[Lakeside]

Irene returns through a portal!
All other members of that group clearly got lost in translation.

[Outside]

Butler is looking for people.

[Morty]

[Outside]

Butler may spot Sophie sitting in front of her cabin and reading a gun catalog. Or Reelshka who is observing Brinika, Salix and Natalie on the trees.

[Reinholdt]

[Outside]

Butler goes for the one that isn't a large group of four!
"Hello Sophie ma'am. How are you ma'am?"

[Morty]

[Outside]

Sophie looks up at Butler from her catalog. Oh, hello Butler. I've been better, I guess.

[Reinholdt]

[Outside]

"Oh ma'am? Is there anything I can do ma'am?" Butler asks. That didn't sound like a very happy answer at all!

[Morty]

[Outside]

No, I don't think so. Thanks for asking, though. Sophie smiles a little.

[Reinholdt]

[Outside]

Awww... Butler frowns a little.
"Alright ma'am. You wouldn't happen to be missing a statue, would you ma'am?"

[Morty]

[Outside]

Sophie raises an eyebrow. No, can't say I would. Did you find one?

[Reinholdt]

[Outside]

"I did ma'am. I found it lying on the ground outside ma'am. It's in my room now ma'am."
In that cabin where it's been mysteriously raining around for a while and with no apparent reason.

[Morty]

[Outside]

Could you take me there? I think I'd like to take a look at it. Sophie puts the catalog away and gets to her feet.

[Reinholdt]

[Outside -> Butler's room]

"If you'd like ma'am."

Are you sure you want to go in there Sophie? I mean, it's the den of someone who is a hardcore Nuka-Cola junkie. I mean, who knows what sort of cleanliness she might run into?

Anyways, Butler will lead her in and show her the statue, which I forget what exactly it looks like beyond humanoid, pretty, and holding an umbrella? Probably should wait for Earl at this point.

[Morty]

[Butler's Room]

Sophie looks at the statue with her Second Sight, which strips away illusions and shows things for what they really are. And we should indeed wait for Earl.

Butler may spot Sophie sitting in front of her cabin and reading a gun catalog. Or Reelshka who is observing Brinika, Salix and Natalie on the trees.

Outside
'John' burst out of the woods in his fey-human combo form. He stretched his arms briefly and looked around. He saw Brinika, Salic, and Natalie climbing a tree. He saw Reelshka at the bottom of the tree.
He walked over to Reelshka, briefly putting on a pair of blue shorts.
"Excuse me? I need some help."

[Morty]

[Outside]

Reelshka turns around and glares at John.
Seeing as you're running around children naked, yes, I think you do, she says, her tone less than friendly.

[Mindfreak]

[Outside]

Reelshka turns around and glares at John.
Seeing as you're running around children naked, yes, I think you do, she says, her tone less than friendly.

"My apologies, but when I'm in this form I just feel the urge to cut loose. I also didn't expect to see children in the woods."
He reached into his pocket and grabbed a piece of paper.
"The Doc said something about GLoG being a good place for redemption, as did a pixie.....and so I'm here."
